but we don't believe it

I still stand here holding up the roof
'Cause it's easier than telling the truth
-Kris Allen, The Truth
It's a really really really nice song about this relationship crashing down, but both parties refuse to acknowledge that and try to ignore that gigantic problem at hand. But eventually, by the bridge (I mean bridge as in song structure), the POV which he's singing from decides it's better to just let go even though it hurts than to cling on to this relationship, since that'll just cause even more pain than it already has.
Listen to it, please? Except for you Nat, you can not listen to the song. Just don't start ranting to me about how he's gay figuratively and Adam Lambert has a more unique voice and should have won blah blah blah.
You too FuYuan.
It's really ironical how some boys are just so sweet but girls just think they're downright creepy and they're just so attracted to jerks.
Okay so the jerk part is not that common. But the front part of the statement is still mostly true.
Not that any guy's ever been sweet to me, just referring to a friend of mine.
And seriously, don't start thinking that that friend's you or something, you people are starting to make me scared of posting about someone anonymously.
I've been feeling incredibly sad these few days, maybe cos of graduation. Or maybe not, I really don't understand myself anymore.
The world's just a big stage. We're nothing but actors and actresses putting on an performance.
Don't you see life is about nothing much except putting on different facades, around different people; during different situations; for different purposes? When we peel down all those masks and look into the mirror, can we really recognize who we're staring at?
Even though it's ourselves, we've become so used to putting on these many masks that we've forgotten who you really are. We don't even know yourself anymore. We don't know what we're doing, where we're headed, and who are the ones who really matter to us.
Maybe not "don't know", we just lose your focus of life, and can't get it back, temporarily for some, permanently for others. The saddest thing is, we mostly don't even realize it.
It's depressing, but it's the truth about humans, that nobody wants to say aloud.
No freaking idea why I just typed that, it just came to me when I was thinking about the song's name. And I read this book by a local author a few weeks back about something like this.
Can't remember what the title was, except that it was a really good book. Except for the way too Singaporean-y writing style, personally I didn't really like it.
Anyway, not everyone's like that. exaggeration for dramatic effect? that was stupid.
So... Oh yeah, the flood today was fun. Our last day of school and they give us a knee-deep flood right outside our school.
All I can say is that it's fun. Too lazy to start crapping at you about it.
