well, well, well...

i stand 5'6" on a good day.
my hair is nothing like what it once was.
i'm skinny. my facial hair is patchy.
i dream of being a pirate or a knight.
i want to be wanted, but girls like that don't exist around these parts.
the weather is never what i want it to be.
the only way to feel secure in this world is to have money.
i let people down on a daily basis,
but i've never let myself get back up.
i never make a decision without asking for help...
and i never take the advice that i'm given.
i have no secrets. i tell them all...
usually when i'm drunk... or i'm just wanting attention.
and i get attention.
i'm 4 years out of high school... and i haven't accomplished a thing.
i do this thing where all i do is talk.
i don't remember birthdays, i don't remember names,
i can usually remember people's favorite colors...
even if i don't care about them.
my friends would probably never hurt me...
but i think they might kill me... slowly.
i wonder if trust is real.
faith i know all about... but trust.
people lie... i try not to.
i steal... but only when i need to.
i'm ready to see if i will ever follow through with a single thing i plan to do in life,
or will i row, row, row my boat gently down the stream?
merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily...
life is but a dream?

how do you like me now?
