Used to

I have a leaders retreat tomorrow till monday. This was supposed to happen during sem break, but it was canceled because of the rain. So anyway, it's gonna be tuloy tomorrow.

Anyway...i was just thinking yesterday about "words". We really have to be careful with them because they are so powerful. They can build people up or tear them down right? But on the other hand, I was thinking about how words don't mean anything if they aren't backed up with actions. Honestly, that's the one that annoys me more. I wish when people say things, they mean it. I do.

I mean what i say. And when people tell me things, i always think they mean it too. But their actions show that they were just trying to say "the right thing". Maybe it was just in the moment?

Yesterday was awesome...after school. I wish everyday was like that. but sadly, you can't always get your wish. Made me think of this song. (this is the only version of it i could find on youtube)




"Used To"

"You used to talk to me like
I was the only one around.
You used to lean on me like
The only other choice was falling down.
You used to walk with me like
We had nowhere we needed to go,
Nice and slow, to no place in particular.

We used to have this figured out;
We used to breathe without a doubt.
When nights were clear, you were the first star that I'd see.
We used to have this under control.
We never thought.
We used to know.
At least there's you, and at least there's me.
Can we get this back?
Can we get this back to how it used to be?

I used to reach for you when
I got lost along the way.
I used to listen.
You always had just the right thing to say.
I used to follow you.
Never really cared where we would go,
Fast or slow, to anywhere at all.

We used to have this figured out;
We used to breathe without a doubt.
When nights were clear, you were the first star that I'd see.
We used to have this under control.
We never thought.
We used to know.
At least there's you, and at least there's me.
Can we get this back?
Can we get this back to how it used to be?

I look around me,
And I want you to be there
'Cause I miss the things that we shared.
Look around you.
It's empty, and you're sad
'Cause you miss the love that we had.

You used to talk to me like
I was the only one around,
The only one around.

We used to have this figured out;
We used to breathe without a doubt.
When nights were clear, you were the first star that I'd see.
We used to have this under control.
We never thought.
We used to know.
At least there's you, and at least there's me.
Can we get this back?
Can we get this back to how it used to be? Yeah.
To how it used to be.
To how it used to be, yeah.
To how it used to be.
To how it used to be. "
