Maybe

Sometimes you hear a new song on the radio, and it sums up your feelings so well that you wonder if someone has been stalking you, or rooting around in your head looking for stray thoughts and feelings to put to music.

This week has been all about telling people about my choice to leave my job, and about figuring out what to say, and how not to burn bridges. This is at the same time that I am dealing with the same reasons for my decision in the first place. So many friends have been so amazingly supportive-- This song sums up a lot of my excitement and feeling about the change.

Most people, after all, have their next job lined up before they simply "quit". :)

Tonight's song: "Maybe" by Sick Puppies.



The lyrics tell you something, too--

Maybe I'm a dreamer
Maybe I'm misunderstood
Maybe you're not seeing the side of me you should
Maybe I'm crazy
(Maybe I'm crazy)
Maybe I'm the only one
(Maybe I'm the only one)
Maybe I'm just out of touch
Maybe I've just had enough

Maybe it's time to change
And leave it all behind
I've never been one to walk alone
I've always been scared to try
So why does it feel so wrong
To reach for something more
To wanna live a better life
What am I waiting for?
'Cause nothing stays the same
Maybe it's time to change

Maybe it's hopeless
(Maybe it's hopeless)
Maybe I should just give up
(Maybe I should just give up)
What if I can't trust myself?
What if I just need some help?

Maybe it's time to change
And leave it all behind
I've never been one to walk alone
I've always been scared to try
So why does it feel so wrong
To reach for something more
To wanna live a better life
What am I waiting for?
'Cause nothing stays the same
Maybe it's time to change

And maybe it's time to change
And leave it all behind
I've never been one to walk alone
I've always been scared to try

And maybe it's time to change
And leave it all behind
I've never been one to walk alone
I've always been scared to try
So why does it feel so wrong
To reach for something more
To wanna live a better life
What am I waiting for?
'Cause nothing stays the same
Maybe it's time to change
'Cause nothing stays the same
Maybe it's time to change
