Try so hard...

[wigrocks]

A little while back I jammed some of my fingers. What I thought was going to be a 1-2 day recover has stretched into many weeks. So I haven't been able to play the guitar for a long while now. Needed to do something to keep the creative juices flowing.

Nothing overly deep here. I was thinking about my teenage day's and being... well flaky I guess. Had a million great ideas that I never put the full follow through into, and then actually had the nerve to complain to everyone when they didn't happen. So looking back, not only were the ideas not as great as they seemed at the time, but didn't have a shot from the gate because I was spending all my time chasing girls and hanging out.


Try so hard

Tried so hard to finish this
Tried even harder to avoid the end
It’s no wonder now that I’m still in pieces
I’ve explained my weak guesses

Started this with the purest wish
A novelty, escaped it’s trends
A rare idea, with generic features
A dream that’s fallen with the other messes

Try so hard… or so I say
I’m just not as strong, defending
After losing steam, folding promise keeper
A grand idea that’s become less precious

Did I try too hard, to finish it
Are rigid times, the answer pending
The time has flown, enjoying other pleasures
It’s my own fault the brain stormer confesses

Did I try so hard to follow through?
Was the effort spent on dreams alone?
Did it fall apart in it’s execution?
It’s my own fault this brain stormer confesses
