Sometimes I feel
Like I don't have a partner
Sometimes I feel
Like my only friend
Is the city I live in
The city of angels
Lonely as I am
Together we cry

I drive on her streets
'Cause she's my companion
I walk through her hills
'Cause she knows who I am
She sees my good deeds
And she kisses me windy
I never worry
Now that is a lie

I don't ever want to feel
Like I did that day
Take me to the place I love
Take me all the way

It's hard to believe
That there's nobody out there
It's hard to believe
That I'm all alone
At least I have her love
The city she loves me
Lonely as I am
Together we cry

I don't ever want to feel
Like I did that day
Take me to the place I love
Take me all that way

Under the bridge downtown
Is where I drew some blood
Under the bridge downtown
I could not get enough
Under the bridge downtown
Forgot about my love
Under the bridge downtown
I gave my life away

ho humm...

you know.. its funny.. you try to be civil about something, and some people just don't see it that way.. its sad.. it really is.. honestly.. all whom read this, how many times have a publicly attack a certain someone... oh.. please do tell..
i may be a fat truck driver.. but hey.. it happens..

but mister billy badass.. who are you to pass judgment on me? who are you to say that i will be the same way, and who are you to say she was happy when she was with you.. shit even she will tell you she didn't know what was going on in her head.. but its funny.. cause when someone gets so much smoke blown up their ass about something. they tend to have a construed veiw about that something.. did you honestly take 2 seconds out to think of her.. or were you to busy saying things to the effect of " fuck him, im much better then he" its funny, cause you don't have to say those words directly and you still say them.. why don't you ask her how many names i have called you privately.. oh wait.. maybe a time or two.. yet, every time you hear my name, " whats that faggot want" is the first thing to fly out of your mouth.. hrmm. yea very adult.. very caring, and indeed, very intellegent.. im tired of seeing these statements saying how i walked right into the room yelling and screaming and thats all i ever did.. please.. get off your little horse of a ego and take a look at the big picture.. i don't care how obbsessed you are with someone (( as mandy will openly tell you she was with me) but if thats all i ever did, then don't you think we would have never made it almost 3 years.... hrmm theres an interesting point josh, lets elaborate a bit. well.. if all i did was hurt her.. then perhaps you would like to clue me in on why she initiated talking with me again? perhaps you would like to let me know why the "love of your life" was asking me " i want to know if i can still talk to you like i always could", but yet i spent 2 months trying to convince her that she could, and the only response i could get was, i can't talk to you.. oh wait, cause little self rightoues "hero" of the day thinks talking to josh is a bad idea... well there bud, of course it was to you.. it was a threat to YOU being happy, fuck mandy's happiness... thats all you thought.. of yourself.. and it shows.. you know how many people that don't know the situation and just sit back and go, wow, what a self centerd ass he is making of himself.. no you never lied to her.. of course not.. but bud, when you send someone emails, your nuts are in a vice, because guess what.. that person might save one or two for someones veiwing pleasure.. now i havn't let her read the really bad ones, so don't worry.. partly because i deleted them.. but i did keep one.. oh but wait, "its josh lieing again, he somehow, between being on the road, and being with you mandy, he hacked into my computer and sent himself emails from my name to himself.. and made him self look like me by mispelling every other word ,and using no form of punctuation whatsoever".. (which is another topic we shall discuss later..)

the whole " i think josh is a really great guy, and still want to be friends with him" bullshit is getting annoying too.. please matt, admit your terrifed and you know that steph and kev are right, and let that be that.. i made a promise to you one day by the river, and i came about || that close to keeping it.. count your blessings that i didn't and drop it. but telling me you want a " TRUTH" ( i think you ment truce, but im not too certain, please let me know) and you can never forgive me for what i did, but you can't help me and mandy being friends and yadda yadda yadda.. how self centered can you get? honestly? " yes, now everyone hear this, i want forgivness from someone who knows nothing about a situation, or the whole story, and if i don't get forgivness form this person, i will be heart broken" oh wait.. hear that, my heart is still ticking.. hrmm.. ( detecting the sarcasm yet?)

sigh.. this publicly bashing thing is fun and all, but kinda tiresome and so not me..

i go back to a previous post where "someone" ( thank you by the way "someone" you know who you are, i owe you guys dinner) put , and i quote " looks like matty has the love of his life all wrapped up" hrmm what was your response.. yes.. show your age some more.. do it! go ahead, look it up, i am not mistaken.. that has been on my mind since the day it happend.. but until now have i waited to say something.. shit all of this has been on my mind, aching to come out. oh but wait.. i just don't run off with the mouth, and then backtrack like a mo fo for fear of repercussions from a certain someone.. i think of that someone first and if it comes out that saying such things will make trouble for that someone,or will hurt me in the long run, then it doesn't get said.. hrmm..

i have not brainwashed kev and steph.. so please.. do everyone a favor, cut your losses and apologize to them. we just aggree that you need to find some other alternatives of expressing your obsessions. because what your doing is not only hurting the one you "love" but don't even know, your only in the end gonna hurt yourself.. ( no one take this the wrong way) they don't care that much for mandy and what happens to her, and i could give more care to the dump i took this afternoon then i could ever give about you. but sadly, this "im right, your wrong" adtitude you have with everyone is really taking its toll.. and do you know what is 10000000000 times worse then pyshical pain? mental..

honestly matt, how well do you know her? ask yourself this.. all you know is what has happend between me and her.. maybe some more stuff, but not much, how do i know? no she has not explained it.. and i don't want her too.. but learning about a person takes time.. alot of time.. ask your parents.. 20-1 says they learn something new every day.. but to say they are the love of your life.. blah blah blah.. that takes time, and alot of patience.. and i do mean alot of pateince. how do i know? well i don't for sure, but if you look around and learn to use your surroundings a little better, you may be able to make the same assumptions.

well onto the final thing on my mind for the night.. your typeing.. good god kid.. do you know what the space, backspace, and enter keys mean? not to mention the keys with all the little funny symbols like. ' ; . ? \ $ # ! ( ) i was once told that reading your material made them nautious. and the gods honest truth, it does it to me too.. i cringe when i see something more then a few lines written by you.. and the spelling. good god, i mean im not the best, and i spell alot of shit wrong, but damn dude. and please, do everyone a favor.. and learn where the spaces go.. b causei ti squite hard tor ead sme thingw hen it isno t all toget her correctly.

ok, im done.. alot of shit gets bottled up after awhile, and allthough i had a good time writing that, and it felt good. if i never have to do it again, i will be a made man..

good night all..

and matt, i know, fuck me right?

Nov. 7th, 2005 @ 01:09 am so yea,
yea.. got alot to say, but not sure how to word it.

got to wait for laundry to get done so i can go to sleep..

i hate my job... yuck..

went and seen jarhead the other night.... yea.. sorry for flipping out afterwards guys.. i think stephan came the closest when he asked "hit a little close to home?" but even then i doubt you guys even realize how close it actually was.. ever since that movie i have just be very surreal. kinda floating through the day's and such. i must say it was a very kickass movie tho... very good. funny as shit.. lol. gotta love that usmc humor.

the plan was go through my evaluation in april and see how i feel about still joining.. susan says im good to go now, but stupid protocol is holding me back. yuck. anyway, the plan has changed.. no seeing how i feel.. i know how i feel.. i feel the same way i have for the last ten years or so. me blinding myself and just taking a backseat when told " well theres a problem" is just lagging out the inevitable.. fuck it. i know what i want.. i have always known what i want.. i will never fully get away from trucking.. good god.. i hate hurry up and waiting. lol

was supposed to go with my dad to fenton to get mandys present.. but i think i may have found the same thing in warren.. so no father son bonding to fenton ( whew) actually it doesn't bother me, its just so much has to be planned on the weekends with everyone.. taking a whole morning out to go get it would be killer on the schedule.

well i supposed i should go.. bedtime is nearing.. night yall!

after much consideration, and after seeing a rebel flag on the back of someones car last night on the way home, i have come to one conclusion.

people are funny, ones who shout "i am redneck" from moutain tops and such.. rednecks are rednecks cause of the way they are and the fact they do not know how goofy they are.. not because they pride theirselves in being that way, and let you know it every chance they get.

having that said.. heres a dumb question.....

ever feel your apart of someones sick demented joke and everyone is in on it but you? ho humm.

well time for work. later all.

i just sat and watched the video to the song about 10 times litterally.. why is it that what most scares us, or shakes us, is the most intriging, and we look for reasons to associate ourselves with it as much as possible?

this makes me ponder.

i mean, that video scares the living shit out of me, and i can sit here for another 2 hours, litterally shaking uncontrollably, watching it,but yet i derive some joy out of seeing this girl lose the most important thing in her life, and there is nothing she can do about it. im not talking joy, like deck the halls or anything, but just some wierd guilty pleasure type joy. i dunno. the words on the tail end of the video really haunt me too. i guess they are supposed to. what a bunch of sick fucks making this shit. certainly a love/hate relationship with that song. thats for sure.

more later, mom just came home.

am i a hopeless survivor?
doomed to pain and regard for the dead?
ask and i give, but do not recive,
sometimes i feel as if i need to be shot in the head. ( that was a long way to go for a ryhme, lol)
depressed i am, sorrows fill my thoughts,
cruicified on the 4th, not the 3rd, will heaven be bought.
yes wake me when september ends,
so i shall awaken from my nightmare,
and be shaken away, all that has scare,
advice given is appreciated, allthough not always followed,
but appreciated none the less, and glad to be borrowed.

this has been in my head all day, so i will write it on here.

-tim mcgraw

You always had an eye for things that glittered
But I was far from being made of gold
I don't know how but I scraped up the money
I just never could quite tell you no

Just like when you were leaving Amarillo
Takin' that new job in Tennessee
And I quit mine so we could be together
I can't forget the way you looked at me

CHORUS:
Just to see you smile
I'd do anything that you wanted me to
When all is said and done
I'd never count the cost
It's worth all that's lost
Just to see you smile

When you said time was all you really needed
I walked away and let you have you're space
'Cause leavin' didn't hurt me near as badly
As the tears I saw rollin' down your face

And yesterday I knew just what you wanted
When you came walkin' up to me with him
So I told you that I was happy for you
And given the chance I'd lie again

Sep. 26th, 2005 @ 11:35 pm this is for nick, i love you man. how i feel. truely.
as i drive all day, i can come up with a million and one lines for songs and poems, so much time to think, but then i get the chance to post and it all just leaves me.

i don't know what to do, this "just" life is so screwed,
playing games, wasn't the plan,
i just wanted to be her man,
blind leading the blind and both so headstrong,
cannot think of anything that ryhmes with headstrong.. yuck..
i know i fucked up, and she should know she did too,
but now its way past sorrys, and apologies, nothing left to do.
feeling helpless and withdrawn, is how i end my days,
working at a job all day, and pennys is all that it anymore pays
waking up and hour after i go to bed,
so tired i cannot even lift my head,
but no sleep comes, just thoughts and broken dreams,
and at night i regret, superfical bloody screams.
moving on seems so easy for her, when its me who should do the latter,
not eating and no sleeping, is only making me fatter,
these are my words, my hopes, and my sorrows,
i can only feel for one to have a better tomorow.
every talk i have with her, feels it will be the last,
cannot afford to say how i feel, or the opportunity will be past.
leave you all now, with these last words of remorse,
in hopes that when you take this path, you take a different course.

last night was a blast. good to see some old friends.. brings back alot of old good memories.. i will have to say that saying i was going to see her, then seeing her mom, then getting publicly humped infront of towers homecoming game was really odd but satisfying none the less lol.. ill never forget nicks face.. and then just a " wow dude, you called it" with a big ole grin.. gotta go pick her up in a minute. gotta catch up on some old times. i should have never stopped talking to her. ehh.

im sorry for seeming all withdrawn last night.. i was more then fine, just had a bit of a headache and everyone was superloud.

nothing makes you feel more like a dick then just forgetting about someone, and then seeing them and having them make you feel really special.. i don't think i have ever felt the warmth from someone like that, that was that excited to see me.. i mean normally, i would have called it scary, but nonetheless, i digress.

seeing O D again was cool. even though he looked really annoyed at the game, and the people at the game in general. he had his buddy kirt there.. awesome guy, got me out of a ticket once.. lol..

one word.. BONDRA!!!!!!! i thought that kid died.

oh and the one toothed girl.. lol.. yuck yuck.


well im off to the shower and to her house.. see yall later.

been doing alot of thinking, and this is what i have come up with.

people throw around the word "love" way too much. i guess what i mean is, alot of people just say it to say it, as if it means somthing. love is a very tried word, i mean, in its simplest form it means: i care a great deal for you. but to some it can mean something very differnt, and in some cases hurtfull. i have always understood saying "i love you" to someone has meant, "there is no other person i even want to say this too" however don't get the " i love you" mixed with " love ya" they are way different in my opinion. everytime i have said i love you i meant it with all my heart.. and until tonight i have been blind to the fact that people can and will say these three little meaningless words and not mean it with full intent on proving it, not through words, but by actions. as i write this i think of people whom i have told i loved, and truth be known, i have meant it every time. have you? as much as i should be hurting right now all i can really do is laugh, i have seen this since the begining, and the hurting has already past.. i can sit here and smile with ease. because i have made mistakes, and i am willing to admit them and try and fix them. for some that is good enough, for others, nothing is good enough.. why continue to try and fix what is broken, when we can just go out and get the next in line. well i hope it everything works out for them, i really do, and i do regret going on those dates with an altered state of mind, im sure i could have had alot of fun on them. as i set here with a great load off my shoulders. i can only hope that tonight will not bring one of those dreams, but one of happieness and a future in this world.. because up until now.. jail and death did not seem like to bad of choices to end this pathetic thing i call an exsistence.


whatever happens in my life im sure will be the best thing for it. however, if bad choices be made, or death knock on my door, all of those who care about me, and have shown that tried and true over the last 5 or 6 years we have known eachother, know that I LOVE YOU and will always love you. and will always be there for you, in life or after.

i suppose this is a good time to say this is my last post on livejournal. i guess the need to communication over 90 miles is no longer needed. its nice to be home. .ahh yes, home.

in all humble sincerity,
Josh

sitting here, tired, yuck.

got 90 percent of my shit out of the apartment, woot.

figured i wouldn't hear back from that email, perhaps everyone is right and im too dumb and gullible to believe it..

the job search continues,

just 23 pounds to go now..

ever get the feeling things happen for a reason? even if that reason may not be a good one? been having some real bad dreams for about the last 2 months.. and oddly enough, a couple came true.. perhaps pyschic? who knows, fuck it.

time for me to do something productive.

yup yup.. sitting here, alone, thinking once again.

i can't wait to move back home. my work has been awesome about the whole situation.

i have to admit it though, i wasn't ready to move out at all.. i just wanted what we kept talking about so much that i just went blind and left everything i knew to do this.

i should have never left.

i shouldn't have done alot of things..

i wasn't ready for all this responsibility, i just gritted my teeth and went through it.. for us.. and now there is no us.

one for all and all for nothing.
