My Theme Songs...

Artist: John Rzeznik Lyrics
Song: I'm Still Here (Jim's Theme) Lyrics

I am a question to the world
Not an answer to be heard
Or a moment that's held in your arms

And what do you think you'd ever say
I won't listen anyway
You don't know me
And I'll never be what you want
Me to be

And what
Do you think you'd understand
I'm boy, no, I'm a man
You can't take me
And throw me away

And how
Can you learn what's never shown
Yeah, you stand here on your own
They don't know me
'Cause I'm not here

[Chorus]
And I want a moment to be real
Want to touch things I don't feel
Wanna hold on and feel I belong

And how can the world want me to change
They're the ones that stay the same
They don't know me
'Cause I'm not here

And you see the things they never see
All you wanted - I could be
Now you know me
And I'm not afraid

And I want to tell you who I am
Can you help me be a man
They can't break me
As long as I know who I am

[Chorus]

And how can the world want me to change
They're the ones that stay the same
They can't see me
But I'm still here

They can't tell me who to be
'Cause I'm not what they see
Yeah, the world is still sleepin' while I keep on dreaming for me
And their words are just whispers and lies that I'll never believe

[Chorus]

And how can you say I'll never change
They're the ones that stay the same
I'm the one now
'Cause I'm still here

I'm the one
'Cause I'm still here
I'm still here
I'm still here
I'm still here

Artist: Goo Goo Dolls Lyrics
Song: Iris Lyrics

And I'd give up forever to touch you
Cause I know that you feel me somehow
You're the closest to heaven that I'll ever be
And I don't want to go home right now

And all I can taste is this moment
And all I can breathe is your life
Cause sooner or later it's over
I just don't want to miss you tonight

And I don't want the world to see me
Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

And you can't fight the tears that ain't coming
Or the moment of truth in your lies
When everything feels like the movies
Yeah you bleed just to know you're alive

And I don't want the world to see me
Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

I don't want the world to see me
Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am


My Name is Jared, and I am a writer. What is this Writers Anonymous? No! Well, I'm 22 and currently living in CA, USA. I work at Verizon Relay for the deaf. Hehe. Anyway, I do various styles of poetry, but I never keep to one specific pattern, same with my writing in terms of short stories and my novel, which is in its second level of editing, which has been done liberally.

I've been called a glass rose, something to care for, love and caress, but hold too tightly, and it breaks, and disappears... And I suppose that is true. I'm the ultimate wallflower, yet I can be very sociable... I seem to be more comfortable amongst people I don't know than those I do, which is odd, I realize. I don't have many close friends, but I have many aquaintences.

Life is a blessed gift to me, for I have seen a lot of horrible things in my life and through the eyes of others, so I treasure my fleeting moments upon the stage known as life. The Divine has given me this heart, this body, and this time to live that I have, and I intend to fufill my purpose as best I can.

Never Forsaken.
Always Watching.
We Seraphim
His Will be done
Amen.
