Not Your Fault

These are some song lyrics I came up with recently. I already have the music written out and everything, I just wanted to share these deep, meaningful lyrics.

Not Your Fault

In the beginning, things go great, but in the end, something always breaks. Oh how I wish I could control what lies behind my inner soul./ It’s not your fault I let you down. You didn’t mess up, I’m such a clown./ I just want to make you happy when you and I do stuff together. All I want is to stand by you, and hold you tightly forever./ It’s not your fault I let you down. You didn’t mess up, I’m such a clown. It’s not your fault, I let you down, I’ll never forget the day you turned me around./ You love me right, and I enjoy our time together. You and I, we connect, and understand each other./ It’s not your fault I let you down. You didn’t mess up, I’m such a clown. It’s not your fault, I let you down, I’ll never forget the day you turned me around./ I’ll never forget the day we met, when my heart was filled with excitement. It’s so tantalizing to think about the time we spent together. (2 min. 35 sec.)

“Good Things Come to Those Who Have Patience.”

“Good things come to those who wait.” Do you agree? How long is it reasonable to wait for something you really want?

I’d like to rephrase the saying to “Good things come to those who have patience.” You see, I don’t believe just sitting around doing nothing while you’re waiting will get you anything unless Continue reading

Poem 2 From A Year Ago

Who am I?

By Trent Schairer

There I am, witting on the couch with the TV on.

Alone I sit, thinking about who I am,

Or rather, who others think I am.

Some may think I’m a pimple-faced loser,

Others may think I’m secretly a psychopath.

But what should it matter to me?

I know who I am, and I don’t care what others think.

This is my life, not theirs,

So who are they to tell me what I can and can’t do?

I don’t tell people how to live their lives,

Because I don’t have control over their lives,

I’m only in control of my own.

Who am I?

I am me.

I am different from others because I don’t let society control me.

I stand out because fitting in is boring.

I live my life the way I want to, and I have a plan for it.

I can’t tell you my plan because you just won’t understand.

You’ll just tell me what everyone else tells me,

And I won’t listen because it won’t work for me.

I am who I am and no one can change that, no one,

So let me live my life, and I’ll let you live yours.

Life is Plain/Pain/Gain

By Trent Schairer

Life is plain- boring, yet ever-changing.

Every day’s the same, all but subtle difference.

Today’s the same as yesterday,

But different from yesterday’s yesterday.

Tomorrow’s going to be the same as today,

But different from today’s yesterday.

Life is pain- hurts, but helps.

Death, heartbreak, and questioning,

It all brings us down.

We think we’re all happy,

But something always happens.

We can’t give up, or we’ll all look like clowns.

Life is gain- complex and becoming simple.

We all learn, love, and live.

With plainness and pain

Comes excitement and pleasure,

But only when we look at the truth and lies.

Life is plain, then pain, then gain.

Emotional Storm

Just when I thought my world was becoming brighter, a dark storm just had roll in and fuck it all up. Now I can’t help but to miss the passion I felt when I was with my first true love, Jessie. To love someone so much that I’ll do anything to make sure they’re safe and happy- it haunts me… I had the opportunity with Michael, but the fate I set for myself prevented it from becoming a reality. My
heart hasn’t been this solemn in a long time.
