an inconvenient truth.

you write such pretty words
but life is not a story book.

Have I been sleeping?
I've been so still, afraid of crumbling...
Have I been careless?
Dismissing all the distant rumblings...

'Cause I need to move on, I need to wake up
I need to change, I need to shake up
I need to speak out, something's got to break up
I've been asleep and I need to wake up now.
-Melissa Etheridge (i need to wake up)
