No I'm not color blind
I know the world is black and white
I try to keep an open mind
But I just can' t sleep on this tonight
Stop this train
I want to get off
And go home again
I can't take the speed it's moving in
I know I can't
But honestly, won't someone stop this train?
Don't know how else to say it
I don't want to see my parents go
One generation's length away
From fighting life out on my own
Stop this train
I want to get off and go home again
I can't take the speed it's moving in
I know I can't
But honestly, won't someone stop this train?
So scared of getting older
I'm only good at being young
So I play the numbers game
To find a way to say that life has just begun
Had a talk with my old man
Said "help me understand"
He said "turn sixty-eight"
"You'll renegotiate"
"Don't stop this train
Don't for a minute change the place you're in
And don't think I couldn't ever understand
I tried my hand
Honestly we'll never stop this train"
Once in a while, when it's good
It'll feel like it should
And they're all still around
And you're still safe and sound
And you don't miss a thing
Till you cry when you're driving away in the dark
Singing
Stop this train
I want to get off
And go home again
I can't take the speed it's moving in
I know I can't
Cause now I see I'll never stop this train

wednesday? the notebook? peanut butter? haha ... i'll email you, i will.
PEANUT BUTTER!!!
and not the organic kind!
organic peanut butter..... sick!
peanut butter and oreos, the teddy bear kind
my mom likes the organic peanut butter. Its not like creamy or anything and it always kinda clumps up. ugh. gross.
my mom tried getting us to eat organic peanut butter like a month ago, but we all refused to eat it. finally, like this week, she gave in and bought us REAL peanut butter. haha
yeah my mom finally gave in too. but she still makes sure the peanut butter we eat doesnt have too much sugar in it, haha.
I love this song... it ownz!
John Mayer is maybe.. the first or second to best... guitar player... ever...
