It's been hard enough on me..

You let me into your life on a whim and there was magic and fire in the night. In loving I was just a little boy. I made mistakes that caused you so much pain. All I know is that I'm older now...
Some people think that it's best to refrain from the conventions of old-fashioned love. Their hearts are filled with holes and emptiness. They tell themselves that they're too young to settle down. But I promise that I'm older now.
And this has been hard enough on you. I know it's been hard enough on me. Been telling myself that I can roll with the changes...
And when the water gets high above your head, darling don't you see? While this has been hard enough on you. It's been hard enough on me
I wasn't looking when we built these walls. Let me spread my dreams at your feet. Let’s not let time’s bitter flood rise, before my thoughts begin to run. I think I'm getting older now...
And this has been hard enough on you. I know it's been hard enough on me, been telling myself that I can roll with the changes. And when the water gets high above your head darling don't you see? While this has been hard enough on you...It's been hard enough on me.
Can't stand the thought of another, talking to you sweet my dear. Where would I be tonight if you hadn't held me here, in your arms?
And this has been hard enough on you. I know it's been hard enough on me, been telling myself that I can roll with the changes... And when the water gets high above your head darling don't you see?While this has been hard enough on you...
It's been hard enough on me.

-Brandon Flowers

This is a good song, I feel like it's been one that I could always relate to, no matter what was going on. I love this kind of music. It's so real, kind of like country music...but not... I find so many songs that I just wish someone could sing to me, this is definitely one of them. Brandon Flowers is one of my heroes. He's a Mormon singer from Las Vegas and is able to hold his own while bearing his testimony on TV and keeping his fans loyal. Maybe not 100% of his songs are appropriate but hey, I would say about 90% of them are! This is good music. If you think otherwise *Gary* you don't have to be in my life. Because this is part of who I am. Actually, it's almost all of who I am. This (music..all music) is what I'm so passionate about. My life doesn't revolve around boys, family, money, clothes... It revolves around music. And you know what? The Beatles are alright. They're just not my first choice! This is my first choice. In the end, this is what gets me through the hard times. With a little help from the man upstairs too, of course!... (hence the appropriate music 90% of the time!) lol
Music is my coping mechanism. If I do have a hard time, which is like ALL THE FLIPPING TIME, I can promise that I'll be listening to something loud... something inappropriate... probably screamo! Haha Just kidding. Honestly, it's usually Taylor Swift or The Killers. Both are fairly appropriate. ;)
In the end as long as I can sing anything out loud, very loud to anything, chances are... I'm going to be okay.

And I think I will. I think I'll be okay.

Thanks for taking the time to read this, have an awesome Monday everybody!
