Redemption





I'm that guy. I'll mess with your head and your heart. You don't even realize it as I stand and watch the suckers of the world fall for the worst performance of my career. I stand. Standing proud and fake. With a smile on my face. Ahah life is a blast. I'm a thief. A thief of your own perception. I have connections in your very thoughts that you don't even recognize. Welcome to my darkness.

 I'm going to change the mood here so let's get serious. I gave you a glimpse of my darkness. We all have it. And frankly mine is very small. I just wanted to be honest with you up front so that you can be honest to yourself. So I'm flipping this around. 180 degrees. Take everything I just wrote and throw it out of your mind. Take out the trash. I'm serious. Never dwell on the worst inside you. I'm Mr. Brightside from here on out . Take this world we all live in. And rip out everything you even remotely despise. Everything you hate. Ignore it. The people, the places, the moments. I have zero sympathy for your past experiences. I feel sorry for you if they still matter to you. 

What matters?  I'm going to walk you through this, so pay attention. Think about what matters to you. Right now. I didn't ask what should matter to you. Just for a moment, ponder about the terrible things that for some reason matter to you. Remember we are being honest here. We care about the dumbest things in the world sometimes. Now. Please. Be careful what you care about. Be careful who you care about. And most importantly be careful why you care. Picture the person that you want to be. What SHOULD matter to you right now. You're falling short. Now what are you going to do about it? 

You have a chance at redemption. You always have a chance. Just remember... 


Redemption never comes without a fight. So fight your heart out.
