erica, shelby, goose & braxton
Current mood: hopeful

to my kids:
the song i have on my bio as of this post is dedicated to my (aunt's) kids, although i know they might not understand it right now. i love you guys more than you could ever comprehend, but i hope you know i do. here are the lyrics to further confuse the issue:

we're still fighting -
by ben folds
good morning son
i am a bird
wearing a brown polyester shirt
you want a coke?
maybe some fries?
the roast beef combo's only nine ninety five
but it's okay
you don't have to pay
i've got all the change

everybody knows
it hurts to grow up
but everybody does
it's so weird to be back here
let me tell you what
the years go on and
we're still fighting it
and you're so much like me
i'm sorry

good morning son
twenty years from now
maybe we'll both sit down
and have a few beers
and i can tell
you about today
and how i picked you up
and everything changed
it was pain
sunny days and rain
i knew you'd feel the same things

everybody knows
it sucks to grow up
and everybody does
and so weird to be back here
let me tell you what
the years go on
and we're still fighting it

you'll try and try
and one day
you'll fly away from me

it was pain
sunny days and rain
i knew you'd feel the same things

everybody knows
it hurts to grow up
and everybody does
and so weird to be back here
let me tell you what
the years go on and
we're still fighting it
and you're so much like me
i'm sorry
