bigger than love - my favorite highway

We've all got scars as big as ours
A token for the pain we hide inside of us
Everyone's scared that somebody knows
You keep it inside, yeah, that's how it goes
If you've ever heard a beating heart
A rhythm for the songs we're too afraid to sing
Nobody here is perfectly fine
A delicate frame, a fragile design

If there's a hole in your heart
You gotta pull it together
It takes the courage to start
But now is better than never
It takes a push and a shove
Somehow it's never enough
And it's alarming how quick you could forget that

Nothing's bigger than love
Nothing's bigger than love
Nothing's bigger than love
All you need, all you need is love

Some people change and some just won't
You can't take back the words you wish you'd never said
Promises break and lovers will lie
You hold up your hands and let out a sigh
So smile right before you fall
And lay beside this mess and call it consequence
Somebody said that life isn't fair
When somebody else was saying a prayer

No one's taking me out
Nothing's pulling me down
I turn my head to the crowd
This love is big and it's loud
This is the car in the crash
This is the light in the flash
This is the answers you know
But you're just too scared ask

If there's a hole your heart
You gotta pull it together
It takes the courage to start
But now is better than never
It takes a push and a shove
Somehow it's never enough

-----------------------------------

i'm so done with it all. i'm done with having all the questions but not having any of the answers. i'm done with saying that i'll do things but never doing them. i'm just.. done. day by day, that's how it's going to be. no more regretting things i didn't do. no more wishing i could do things i'll never do. no more asking questions to answers that will never come.

it's just me. starting over. 'it takes courage to start, but now is better than never'. love. trust. hope.

i wrote about five pages, front and back, in my journal last night. it felt so good to just... write.

all we need is love. <3
