2nd Best

Its kind of funny when the thing that means the most to you doesn't care anymore. It doesn't matter how hard you try... It doesn't matter how patient you are, or how much you are willing to put on the line... It doesn't matter! You can put your whole heart and soul into one thing and get nothing in return. I dunno what I'm doing here anymore.... Maybe I'm waiting to be that guy at night she can call and release all her frustrations to... Or when something happens... the first person she calls in excitement... I'm sick of sitting here waiting for that one person to knock on my door and say... hey... I'm here.

Have you ever run a race that no matter what happens... No matter how hard you train, no matter how much blood, sweat, and tears you shed...at the end of the day there was no chance of you ever actually winning the race? Always being 2nd best...

Well...
That's how I feel. 2nd best. You want the truth of whats going on in my messed up brain. Here it is... I'll keep running... I care. Why wouldn't I keep running? But after a while of always coming in second place... I'm going to need to stop running the race and find my own one. One that will eventually lead me to my number one.

 So make up your mind. Am I going to be your number one or am I just 2nd best.

Struggle

Struggle... You have no idea. You sit there and act like you know me.. You don't know jack shit. You stand up there on your soap box preachin to the choir but all I hear is noise. You've never been in my shoes. You don't know what I've been through. 3 years, 10 places. Beaten. Pushed, Shoved, Hated. Greedy people. Punishment. Feet burned, broken leg. Cigarette lighter shoved in your back I don't think so! Disrespect. Watch your tone boy. The belt. No body understands the lost soul of a young man. So don't sit there and tell me that you know what struggle is all about. You don't know struggle. You've been handed everything. Fought for nothing. pssshhh... You say struggle, I say bull shit. When you fight for something, when you are willing to stand in front of the barrel of the gun and say pull it! Then come talk to me. Cause until then, you will never know what struggle is really about.

Dreams...

There's this thing called life... And in it there are dreams.. The thing that sucks is life wont hand us our dreams... We have to take them. We have to fight for them. We have to know that at the end of the day, we were willing to bleed every ounce of blood inside us to hold that dream... Now sometimes choices send us away from our dreams... And thats when we regret forever that we didnt do everything that we could just to hold that dream... Well here i am... Sitting here, and with every breathe I take I bleed. And with every move I make i'm drowning... Reaching out for someone to take my hand... But weather you choose once again to derive form the dream or to decide that the dream is everything i will still drown... I will sink deeper and deeper until you are willing to fight for this dream... but when you do... When you are willing to reach out and grab the dream and pull it tight... Ill be there... Holding you... Knowing that every ounce of blood lost, every bit of life i have lost is worth it because now, I have the dream... You...

BLURBS

Song: Farmers Daughter...

This is a love story. It's about a twenty two year old farmer boy named Jake. He is working on a ranch in the hills of Tennessee when he sees the girl of his dreams. Do they get together or does she end up with her soon to be husband?

Song: Happy Birthday...

Happy? I think not... Is ending a babies life something worth celebrating over? You be the judge. This story is about a mistake that should have never been. A father regretting letting go of his son.

Song: Jesus take the wheel...

Its a dark night when a young girl named Carrie is traveling home. When she looses control of her car she resorts to the one thing that in the end really matters.

Song: I melt...

This is a cute story of a man who is trying to win a girls heart. Unfortunately for him he doesn't communicate well with the opposite sex. Does he get the girl in the end? Or does he epically fail and become miserable for the rest of his life?

Song: What Kinda Gone..

A husband and wife get into an argument. Unfortunately for the husband (Jerry) his wife has been cheating on him so she leaves to the other "lover" and he doesn't know if she is gone or not... You make the decision.
