A class of their own always, and yes, percussion, strings, keyboards, all is so well put together. And jeee what a voice! Im sure there are few hearts that could not be touched by the emotion conveyed in that voice.

Writing to satisfy an unmet need for self expression. Posting to Google Plus because I am a master at the art of being ignored, and this is the social network for unpopular people. I used to write every single day, and had committed myself to writing at least 1,000 words each day. But then one day it hit me: no-one gives a shit. Then suddenly all that time I spent felt like an awful, tragic waste of time. Who the hell am I, even? I must have been so goddamned full of myself to act like my opinions mattered.I wasn't good enough to make people care about what I had to say, and my thoughts have no value compared to the important people. Perhaps if I hitched myself to things like trends, and their mayfly-like brethren, memes, I would have managed to gain readers. But it is so easy to blame the failings of the human race, and there's no shortage of that. Everyone can, themselves, point out what a miserable, failure-prone species we are, but no-one is a failure. I am a failure. I wasn't good enough or smart enough. I made terrible decisions in my life, and I missed out on opportunities that only happen when you're young. I didn't study enough, I let my social skills deteriorate to the point of complete alienation. I didn't go outside often enough. Now that I'm almost thirty, all I can think about is how much I blew it when I was younger. Young people get to try new paths. They can pick up an instrument, learn to paint. But as you get older, there's fewer and fewer new things you can pick up. I should have picked up more creative skills when I was young enough to realistically do so. But I'm over twenty-five, so those parts of the brain have atrophied. Maybe this is why people are the way with their kids--in their minds their kids are like their own lives having a 'do-over'. And then this time, this generation, won't make the same mistakes as the previous one. I didn't make the same mistakes my parents did. I made the opposite mistakes. I've spent this year just trying to come to terms with the extent of my failure. Every lesson we get when we're young tries to teach us how to win, but we never get any schooling on how to fail. It's not even an option. I'm still learning how to fail, to move on with life without letting the fact that I squandered my potential drive me insane, make me so incredibly resentful and bitter that I can't even live with myself. My existence is weighed down with constant awareness that I broke something absolutely essential and there's no way to make things right. And I am the thing I broke. I can never, ever escape the constant awareness of my greatest failure. When we're young we're driven by the ideas of what we may one day be, and what we might do. However naive those aspirations are, they drive us. But now instead of being driven by aspirations I'm weighed down by the deflated husks of shattered hopes, and I am completely deprived of what gets other people through lives far shittier than my own.I wanted to drive a car by the beach, with the windows rolled down. I know that won't happen. I used to wonder what it'd be like to have friends over to play one of those games you need a bunch of people to play, but I know now I'll never have enough friends for that. I wanted to know what it's like to see a legendary band live and years later be able to brag about it after that band has broken up. This too, I know will never happen. My life won't even get the little things that make other people happy. My life is a like a dead city scattered with the remains of what could have been, and I know what killed it because I killed it, and I know how all the destruction could have been prevented... but it's too late now. But there are other cities out there not yet flattened by short-sightedness and stupidity. And I hope that I can help at least one other person. I had to write this to deal with feelings that are eating away at me. Now that I've brought them out I just need to deal with them, to have my catharsis and get this awful stuff out of my head. I might write more, or I might not. I'm just taking it day by day now. Tears for Fears - Start of the Breakdown
