What's that sound I hear? It's just my lifetime It's whistling past my ear

Sarcasm creates a chasm between yourself and others.

And if I'm not forgiven, then at least I'm understood.

Sometimes the wind blows you places you weren't expecting: sometimes it blows you away from those places, too.

I know what I did to you was so wrong, but at the time it also felt so necessary to my survival. I don't know if those two things can both be true, but that's how it was.

The politeness was painful. I wanted to push through it, to return to the glow of the night of the concert, but I was unsure of how to get back there.

It's okay if you want to go. Everyone wants you to stay. I want you to stay more than I've ever wanted anything in my life. But that's what I want and I could see why it might not be what you want. So I just wanted to tell you that I understand if you go. It's okay if you have to leave us. It's okay if you want to stop fighting.
