It’s arrogant to think you know what’s right. Morality is only cowardice most of the time. We don’t avoid misbehaving because it’s not proper; what we’re really afraid of is how far down it looks to the bottom. It is far, and you may get killed when you hit. But sometimes you survive the jump, and down there the world is a million times better than where you’re living now.

i want you to want me,
i need you to need me.

I’d love you to love me. I’m beggin’ you to beg me.

Didn’t I, didn’t I, didn’t I see you cryin’?

The difference between being pessimistic and realistic

Some people need to realize it. One thing that annoys me is when people call me pessimistic because trust me, I am far from it. Being pessimistic means seeing the bad in life. I see the good in it, yet not to the point where I’d claim to be optimistic. My outlook on life is realistic. I am hopeful yet I realize and accept what simply can and cannot be done.
