Everything I Found
Everything I Found (8/12/07)
I tend to be the bearer of my negativity
But pretty imagery has come up to me and hit me
I think it’s pretty nifty, ok, I’m just kidding
I wouldn’t talk like that, but I feel a thing within me
It’s come up to me to spin me and send me head over heels
I like how it feels because her smile is real
Her company steals everything that’s grown to bug me
The weight is nothing, I just wish that she would hug me
Cause she’s so lovely, wait, before you all quit me
This isn’t generic, this is simply uplifting
When life ends up flipping and turning around
Her smile was there without a burden of doubt
And it struck me like “Wow, no way is that one for me”
I’m a silly little guy, ordinary and boring
I hear the audience snoring, but I feel so alive now
She makes me so nervous, I’ve been tearing my mind out
I try to play it cool so she doesn’t go and find out
But I think that she can see it, I let my nervous side right out
And even with all my doubts, I feel so optimistic
The double quarter pounder and Johnny Cash got right to business
It’s not making sense, is it? That’s another inside joke
It’s all we share in common, but the differences are hope
Cause everything I know and everything I wanted
Is nothing that I found, but I realize that I want it
Notes: I wanted to write something about my crush and all, but I wanted it to be a bit different than the stuff I wrote in the past since this entire situation is different and better. I threw in some light humor to lighten the mood and mix it up, a bit.
