Behind Brown Eyes
So I have always considered myself the hero in the story of life. That guy who is always there when someone needs help or someone to talk to or needs advice. Or when someone is in danger I always imagined it would be me who comes to save them. But i feel like i have not properly casted myself. As much as i may like to think of myself as the hero i cant help but to shake the feeling that i am the bad guy. You know the one who is trying to help but only ends up messing things up? What if I am not supposed to be the hero does that make me the villain? I sure as hell am not gonna be a pedestrian or some person in distress no, i am either the hero or the villain no in between. I don't want to be the bad guy but it just seems to end up that way no matter what I do. Its like that The Who wrote "Behind Blue Eyes" except mine are brown. I wish someone was out there who could relate who understood what its like to be "fated" (pronounced like faited). " But my dreams aren't as empty as my conscience seems to be". But what is the point of having a dream if you have no one to share it with? I have hours, only lonely. But I guess i am asking to much because really nobody is going to know what its like "Behind Brown Eyes". I cant expect people to understand me because to simply put it, They are not me. Well maybe one day someone will come along but I guess for now I am on my own.

Perhaps your expectations are too high. To say that you can be only the hero or the villain is incorrect. First of all, you are not a bad guy. Not remotely. You voice your opinions strongly and at time maybe even speak before you really think about how they will affect someone but that doesn't make you the bad guy. And in reality we are all heroes and villains throughout various stages and days in our lives. There has to be an in-between Michael and there can't be an absolute. Even Superman screwed up sometimes. Don't be so hard on yourself. If you could see what I see when I looked at you, your whole outlook would change.
