So, just hours after loosing the leather jacket I bought at a market in London, I turn on my ipod and Coldplay's Fix You comes on. How fitting for a day like this.
When you try your best, but you don't succeed
(I have good intentions, but I can never seem to follow through)
When you get what you want, but not what you need
(I want to eat chocolate, sleep whenever I want and watch movies. I need to be healthy and productive)
When you feel so tired, but you can't sleep
(Yep. yep yep)
Stuck in reverse
(perpetually slipping backwards after every step in the right direction)
And the tears come streaming down your face
(Well, I'm not crying yet. I refuse to believe its really gone)
When you lose something you can't replace
(That jacket really is irreplaceable. Even if I somehow got back to Portabello Road and found the same guy with the same jacket, it wouldn't be the same).
When you love someone, but it goes to waste
(That's basically all the time. But, then again, isn't that true love? Loving without any guarantee of reciprocation?)
Could it be worse?
(It can always get worse)
Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you
(Yeah, I could go for a hug right about now. And someone who cared enough to try to put me back together and make me feel whole)
