4 U (DW Version)

[anxious_heart]

this shit right here is for you
all your faces I can see
you all think it's about me
I'm about to break
is this is my fate?
am I still damned to a life
of misery and hate?
you will never know
what I've done for you
what you all
put me through
I do it for you
I could have never lived
if it wasn't for you

I live my life vicariously for someone special to me that's no longer here. During his life, he shared a lot of his hopes and dreams with me and only me. I was the only real friend he had. I was the only person he shared his passions with before he passed. Time and time again, he'd always say to me that I reminded him of a younger him. I didn't have a lot of friends during this period either, so that left us with plenty of opportunities to talk about our aspirations. We seemed to have everything in common from our tastes in music to our tastes in women. It was nice to have someone like him to confide in until he passed. In his absence, I carry on his hopes and dreams.

I'm going to do all the things he wanted to do and couldn't in my lifetime. Not only him, but I'm going to take all those close to me with me. I live my life to motivate those around me to do their best at whatever they're doing. I want everyone to be the best person they can be and go as far as they want to. I will settle for nothing less for myself and I expect nothing less from those around me.

To all those that give me the strength and the courage to get through the worst of times, to challenge my own weaknesses, and overcome my own demons, this is my way of thanking them. I'll live my life to set the example to follow. I'll fight tooth and nail not only for them, but with them. I'll do whatever I can do to make sure that everyone that has the will to make it does. I especially owe this to those that paved the way. And even more so to the poor souls that never had a chance.

This life I live is for you.
