a visit to squaresville

squaresville

sometimes i just want to fit in. 
feel like i am normal,
you know, like everyone else.
 
happy.  

content. 

secure. 

loved. 

confident.

surrounded by tons of friends!!!!

then my friend ray will remind me that 'normal' 
is just a cycle on the washing machine... 

i looked up the definition of normal in the dictionary.  

NORMAL: conforming to... 

wait! 

i'm not one to conform to anything, get me off this bus!

(sigh) 

i think i just needed
to visit 'squaresville' for a time and
catch my breath.

you are 
destined to

have a little faith in me: john hiatt

When the road gets dark
And you can no longer see
Just let my love throw a spark
And have a little faith in me
And when the tears you cry
Are all you can believe
Just give these loving arms a try
And have a little faith in me

Have a little faith in me
Have a little faith in me

And when your secret heart
Cannot speak so easily
Come here darling, from a whisper start
And have a little faith in me
And when your back’s against the wall
Just turn around and you, you will see
I will catch you, I will catch your fall
Just have a little faith in me

Have a little faith in me
Have a little faith in me

‘Cause I’ve been loving you, for such a long, long time
Expecting nothing in return
Just for you to have a little faith in me
You see time, time is our friend
‘Cause for us, there is no end
And all you gotta do, is have a little faith in me
I will hold you up, I will hold you up
And your love, gives me strength enough to
Have a little faith in me
Hey hey
All you gotta do for me girl
Is have a little faith in me
