Dear Reader,
I can't stand to fly, I'm not that naive
I'm just out to find the better part of me
I wish that I could cry
Fall upon my knees
Find a way to lie
About a home I'll never see
Five for Fighting wrote this song about how being a man. You can still be a superhero and it is still hard to do the things we normally do in life. Nobody's perfect. No one can be completely calm all the time; sometimes you will explode or break down.
This week has been hard. I'm still trying to put my finger on the exact problem that provokes my irritability and annoyance this week. I don't like feeling like that. As explained in the song's lyrics, I wish that I could cry because that would help me get these feelings out my system.
The climax of these negative feelings came while talking with two of my best friends. They were asking me some questions out of nowhere which I didn't quite understand. Trying to be a nice person and appease them because I love them, their questions were answered in time. After a certain point in the conversation, the feelings became too much and the frustration of why they were asking about this particular topic overwhelmed me. One of my friends was very offended by the way I responded to her. I do hope she will forgive me, but that was an accurate and proper response on my part.
It may sound absurd, but don't be naive
Even Heroes have the right to bleed
I may be disturbed, but won't you concede?
Even Heroes have the right to dream
I can't stand to fly, I'm not that naive
I'm just out to find the better part of me
I wish that I could cry
Fall upon my knees
Find a way to lie
About a home I'll never see
