A highly romanticized awareness...

"Dropping out of school to pursue a band full-time is dedication.
Dropping out of school because, in part, of the desperation to find a band to do the above with perhaps, is disappointment of the highest order."

I was right to doubt you, but wrong to think
that you would redeem yourself in your truth.

A light is binding [sic] me to the door to eternity
And I'm falling, falling through
"I'm not the one I thought I always knew..."

So you, Awakener, ever wand'ring sojourner
[

Burrowing, tunneling
The lie I lived was yours alone
Regression, ascension
And here I'm digging my own grave^**

I never forgave you...what makes you think I will now?
Some things never change, Theiyonus.

Please don't drop out of school.

I don't say this to hurt you, but to help you.

Finish school and then pursue your music career. I think that you will succeed, but the extra time will give you time to perfect your craft.

I believe in you, but I don't want to see you fail by coming out too early. You have talent: that is undenable. By releasing that talent too early you make yourself prey to those who would use you rather than help you.

I want to hear "This song is by Kyra!" on the radio.

Nah, it was just a sort of musing thought reflecting on how many band musicians have dropped out of school or pursued a music degree to get to where they were.

The second part of that phrase was referring to the fact that I'm dangerously close to being kicked out of school at this point in time. I have a certain high standard I ABSOLUTELY must reach this term or I'm pretty much being kicked out of university and demoted to community college, else barred from attending uni/college for a year altogether.

The only craft that the extra time will afford me is practice in writing text. And only the text. I desperately seek people to help me learn the musical side of songwriting.
