When Will We Learn?

Image hosted by Photobucket.com

It's so sad to me how many people my age still don't know who they are. In my mind, it's natural to need some time to search for who your true self is, or to allow the "real" you to surface...but damn, people! I know this rant seems out of place, but I talked to a friend last week that still doesn't have a clue who she is as a person...she is still overly concerned with how others view her, her life, her boyfriend, everything...I just don't understand it. I went through a period of time where I didn't know who I wanted the outside world to see me as; but I've always known inside who I am and what I stand for. Ok, sorry for the rant...I just had to get it off my chest. Maybe eventually she will figure out that she has to be ok with herself before anyone else will be.

Try Too Hard ~ Pink

1, 2, 3, 4!

You follow every line,
You wear perfect patch and style
You're like a satellite you're driftin' throught the sky
You can't make up you mind about this or that,
or anything at all

So you go with the flow and hope to God that no one knows it
Everything you are, everything you say
Everything you do is not for you
Everything you feel, Everything you know
Found it on your favorite TV show

And it's people like you that make me sick
I'm surrounded by you everywhere I look
You're telling everyone
How different you really are
But it's been said before,
So maybe you're not special after all
If you put the same amount of effort into letting go
Just act yourself and you might like it, you never know

'Cause is everything you want,
Everything you do
You try so hard to be everyone but you
Everywhere you turn,
You just gotta learn
It's easier if you don't try so hard

And it's people like you that make me sick
I'm surrounded by you everywhere I look
Is there somewhere I can go to get away
Where there's truth and people mean just what they say
You try too hard
You just try too hard
You try too hard

And it's people like us that make me sick
I'm surrounded by it everywhere I look
Is there somewhere we can go to get away
Where there's truth and people mean just what they say
You try too hard
You just try too hard
