In Your Soul, They Poked A Million Holes

...But You Never Let Them Show... You Already Know, How This Will End.

Today has not been a good day. However, I realised a few things, and on top of this (as apparently, it actually is the little things that count) some very simple things have lifted my spirits.

In terms of the realisation, I've found that I really want something of my own, if that makes sense? I'm aware probably most people don't have that, but I want something that I can do, that's mine. Honestly I'm sick to death of constantly comparing myself to people around me, and never measuring up. I think maybe there is something that I could actually be good at, and I just don't know what it is yet. I figured everything ended with music but maybe I could find something that albeit I wouldn't have as much of a passion for, but something that I could do myself. That I could do right. Something I could take pride in and something other people could be proud of me for. So what the fuck is it? I need to work that out before I go insane.
