Getting there

It's interesting, putting the shoe on the other foot. I can honestly say I've never been in this position; it's always been the other way around for me. But I can also honestly say that I have learned from being on that side of the fence, and I'm not making the same mistakes that others have made with me. I'm trying, for one. And I do believe that that makes a world of difference.

It has just been so weird to come back here and face the consequences of what I have done. I was foolish, I was childish, I was self-absorbed. I lived a la All Time Low:

I have seen millions of faces,
Ever-unchanging, content with redundancy.
I'm not the same way;
Searching for change in the directions that I want to go.
...
Smile like you don't give a damn about the consequence,
Just say anything...

Except the consequences are still there, whether or not I give a damn about them. And the bottom line is...

I do.
