I
****
sometimes I feel that I'm the only one in a crowded room;
I talk you talk we'll talk but, no one listens.
And sometimes I just leave--"Well maybe you'll notice...but probably not."
I'd just like to take you aside and make you look at me--really look at me!
could I tell you that I'm crazy
would you buy into my lies?
if I told the truth as far as I knew,
could you look in my eyes and see
someone you could believe in?
Could you see someone you could call a friend?
Two thousand years, a man died and He's the only One
who really knows how I feel.
Jesus knew loneliness too as He hung on a cross despised.
His closest friends said they didn't even know Him
(makes me wonder how much they really did)!
At least I've got you to believe in me,
cause we both believe in Him!
He was a man of sorrows;
when I look in the mirror,
that's what I see
We met through our sorrows,
but His love is what's accepting me.
--From The Normals' 1998 debut "Better Than this."
If only every man had this kind of defiance and staidness when a woman hurt him

Yup, see, there's a difference between “like" and “love,†because I like my Sketchers, but I love my Prada backpack.

But I love my Sketchers.

That's because you don't have a Prada backpack.

Ohhh!
