The One About the Rollercoaster Ride

The Eraserheads - With a Smile

lift your head, baby, don't be scared
of the things that could go wrong along the way
you'll get by with a smile
you can't win at everything, but you can try

baby, you don't have to worry
'cause there ain't no need to hurry
no one ever said that there's an easy way
when they're closing all their doors
and they don't want you anymore
this sounds funny, but i'll say it anyway

girl i'll stay, through the bad times
even if i have to fetch you everyday
i'll get by, if you smile
you can never be too happy in this life

in a world where everybody
hates a happy-ending story
it's a wonder love can make the world go 'round
but don't let it bring you down
or turn your face into a frown
you'll get along with a little prayer and a song

in a world where everybody
hates a happy-ending story
it's a wonder love can make the world go 'round
but don't let it bring you down
or turn your face into a frown
you'll get along with a little prayer and a song

lift your head, baby, don't be scared
of the things that could go wrong along the way
you'll get by with a smile
now, it's time to kiss away those tears goodbye

So, I've been up-and-down today. It happens. I have my days. I'm currently on the upswing, almost feeling like I can get out of bed and actually force myself to eat. This song's helping a fair bit.

Flashback, circa May 29, 2005:

"I cling to the hope that all this...stuff is just another one of my usual phases. I go through these every once in a while. My mind is a neverending alternate of light and dark; it never stays put in one place. I might go for a while as completely happy, and living a good life with no hang-ups at all. Then, for a while, my brain will just crumble and start rattling ideas away at me, and I start overanalysing, and then, internally at least, I kinda breakdown."

Anyways, over and out!

END COMMUNICATION.
