everyone else does it

October 13, 1998

it’s funny how you get an image
in your head as to how to want
to lead your life, and you have
these ideas, and maybe they’re

not like anyone else’s ideas, and
is it funny that you think this way

Well, would you get tired of
thinking that way if everyone
else thought something different

well, you probably would start
thinking differently, but what

would you do with those ideas,
once you change your ideas
for everyone else? Would you
just throw those thoughts into
the trash, into the garbage, you
could do that you know, I know
they’re just your ideas, but everyone
else does that, you could do it too.
