which to bury, us or the hatchet?

i think you know what i’m getting at
i find it so upsetting that
the memories that you select
you keep the bad but the good you just forget

and even though i’m angry i can still say
i know my heart will break the day
when you peel out and drive away
i can’t believe this happened

and all this time i never thought
that all we had would be all for none

no, i don’t hate you
don’t want to fight you
know i’ll always love you
but right now i just don’t like you
no, i don’t hate you
don’t want to fight you
know i’ll always love you
but right now i just don’t like you
cause you took this too far (too far)

make your decision and don’t you dare think twice
go with your instincts along with some bad advice
this didn’t turn out the way i thought it would at all
you blame me but some of this is still your fault

i tried to move you, but you just wouldn’t budge
i tried to hold your hand but you’d rather hold your grudge
i think you know what i’m getting at
you said goodbye and i just don’t want you regretting that

no, i don’t hate you
don’t want to fight you
know i’ll always love you
but right now i just don’t like you
no, i don’t hate you
don’t want to fight you
know i’ll always love you
but right now i just don’t like you

and wisdom always chooses
these black eyes and these bruises
over the heartache that they say
never completely goes away
(i just can’t believe this happened and one day we’ll see this come around)
and wisdom always chooses
these black eyes and these bruises
over the heartache that they say
never completely goes away

no, i don’t hate you
don’t want to fight you
know i’ll always love you
but right now i just don’t like you
no, i don’t hate you
don’t want to fight you
know i’ll always love you
but right now i just don’t like you
cause you took this too far (too far)

what happened to us
i heard that it’s me we should blame
what happened to us
why didn’t you stop me from turnin out this way
and know that i don’t hate you
and know that i Don’t want to fight you
and know i’ll always love you
but right now i just don’t…

thank you for oklahoma.

leaving town in T-3 days. because that always works, right?

then when i get back i'll have to decide what to do with the rest of this so-called summer.

summer concert update.

shows i am going to OR willing to go to, including but not limited to:

coldplay. bjcc. may 18.
tonic. alabaster. june 6.
ben lee. birmingham. june 26.
green day. atlanta. aug 1. OR nashville. july 31.
blink-182. atlanta. sept 29.


shows i will NOT go to:
elvis costello
jonas brothers
taylor swift


i need interested parties. don't make me drive to atlanta alone.

i know you hate this one.

coming home for the summer is slowing bringing me back to earth. back to my senses. back to love.

therefore, i am in the process of trying to give up. you heard me. i'm trying. it has been this way for way too long. and i am trying not to let it be that way anymore.

however, don't confuse giving up with not caring. as john mayer once put it, "i will always care about things i shouldn't, but that's a good way of making sure i don't miss caring about something important."

i WILL always care. i will always love. if you forget everything else, don't forget that, okay?

hello, i've waited here for you.

summer couldn't have arrived more perfectly. three consective days with little sleep, lots of driving, good friends, and good music. all-american rejects were superb. first official concert of summer. kicking off a hopeful summer of good music. still to come: ohio avenue, tonic, and ben lee. awesome.

oh, and speaking of music, i realized today that i go through phases with the kind of music i listen to. i never realized it before. besides my few staples, i only listen to one kind of sound at a time. and right now, i'm leaving a mellow-y, acoustic-y sound (john mayer, jack johnson, better than ezra, dmb) in favor of a punky alternative sound (all-american rejects, green day, blink-182, jimmy eat world).


life is good.
