And I know deep down

"Said I never believed in the mates of soul

So I never once claimed that I know

That you're the only, only one for me"

But I like it anyways

 

'Cause I think I'm getting closer to you every day

I know you'll come around

Want somebody holding me through the night

"Many say they'll love me,

but nobody's ever treated me right"

Damn.

You're too sweet for me

I aim low

I aim true, and the ground's where I go

So I'm gonna love you

 

Like I'm gonna lose you.

Waste my time

 

"Hold on to me

Like we're the only ones that see

The sky above us falling down (...)

I have wasted most of my life

Playing games that I knew I'd lose

Let me sing to you

Just sit here, don’t move

I just want to waste some time with you

So take my hand

I don't understand (...)

Forcing back the tears

Over all the years

Boarding up the door (...)

And I still don't believe

That you want to waste your time with me"

Laying in bed at night when S. sent me this song, which just happened to be the perfect description of the bench afternoon I just had with M. The feeling I must be doing something right in this life, for once, spreading some good to the people around me, like I always wanted to do. Living and loving, smiling and crying, understanding me and the world. What a journey.

Would you make it all right?

"If you wanted, you could make it all worth it, worth it, worth it"

ADHD lessons, 2026 edition

- Some songs hit it just right, for an amount of time, and they must be repeated ad nauseam. Funny that.

- Unconventional tools actually work? So why not use them.
- We are everywhere, like a hidden community inside another, and we are more similar than I ever thought. Belonging like this feels good.
- I need something to fidget with...

Love is a crazy game

 "Now that I've lost the best friend that I've ever had"

I've been trying to do it right

I belong with you, you belong with me

You're my sweetheart

I had no time to choose

"You can't deny how hard I've tried

I changed who I was to put you both first

But now I give up."

It's a shot in the dark, but

 "When I am with you, 

there's no place I'd rather be."

And I'd give up forever to touch you

Cause I know that you feel me somehow

I want you to notice

"When I am not around

You're so fucking special

I wish I was special"

That's life

"That's life (that's life)

That's what all the people say

You're riding high in April, shot down in May

But I know I'm gonna change that tune

When I'm back on top, back on top in June"

No, I don't wanna fall in love

"I never dreamed that I'd meet somebody like you

And I never dreamed that I'd lose somebody like you"

Desfado

"Ai que tristeza, esta minha alegria

Ai que alegria, esta tão grande tristeza

Esperar que um dia eu não espere mais um dia

Por aquele que nunca vem e que aqui esteve presente

Ai que saudade que eu tenho de ter saudade

Saudades de ter alguém que aqui está e não existe

Sentir-me triste só por me sentir tão bem

E alegre, sentir-me bem só por eu andar tão triste"

That'll have to do

 "So I thought that if I piled somethin' good on all my bad

That I could cancel out the darkness I inherited from dad"

Let my love open the door

"I have the only key to your heart"

Tú me partiste el corazón

 "Pero, mi amor, no hay problema, no no
Ahora puedo regalar
Un pedacito a cada nena"

I can't stop myself from calling, calling out your name

I can't stop myself from falling, falling back again
