Tripped Up you’re an empty suitcase traveling on a trip to no where I could cry but I have spent all of my tears on more imitation silk lining covered thin the outside of never being right weak in the schedule of timing tracks boarded to boredom map pinned carefully I was here and grip that bears your name alone but alone is so different than lonely red light, green light, a ticket to ride pack yourself up and go, I’ll wave "I'm so hard to handle |

"and grip that bears your name alone but alone is so different than lonely" One thing that I really liked out of it all. Alone and lonely, yes, one of the hardest lessons I had to learn of life, really. |

interesting how it all comes to not really caring if one leaves or stays, but what do we really mean inside I don't know but sometimes we are too in a rush to get our feelings out we stumble over the closest wordings. RedStone |

Ballsy; I love it. But only be sure you love the back and are not hoping for a turn of the head. |
