Nobody's Cryin'

So when I should have been studying my little heart away for my STATs 100 test I was having a panic attack and listening to Pandora. My eyes were red and puffy because I was freaking out and because of all the other massive things that I had to get finished today. Then all of a sudden on of my favorite artists popped up in my song profile. It was a slight relief through all my sniffles and sobs to hear Sutton Foster's astonishing (if you get the joke there tell me and I will seriously give you a prize) voice. The song Nobody's Cryin' began to play and I started to slightly calm down.

He jumps in a taxi
Headed for the sky
He's off to slay some demon dragon fly
He looks at me for that long last time
Turns away again, and I wave good bye

In an envelope inside his coat
Is the chain I wore around my throat
Along with a note I wrote
That says I love you but I dont
Even though I

(Chorus)
Darling, I wish you well
On your way to the wishing well
Swinging off on those gates of hell
But I can tell how long your trying
I just have this secret hope
Sometimes all you do is cope
But somewhere on the steepest slope
is an endless rope
and nobody's crying

Well a long night turns into
a couple of long years
and we walking around with this trail of tears
and the very loud voices of my own fears
are ringing and ringing in my ears

Who says that love is long gone
every move I make is all wrong
Says you never gave a damn for me
or anything or anyone

(chorus)
Darling, I wish you well
On your way to the wishing well
Swinging off on those gates of hell
But I can tell how long your trying
I just have this secret hope
Sometimes all you do is cope
But somewhere on the steepest slope
is an endless rope
and nobody's crying

May you dream you are dreamin in a warm soft bed
maye the voices inside that fill you with dred
make the sounds of thousands of angels instaid
tonight when you might be away in your head

(chorus)
I wish you well
on your way to the wishing well
swinging off of those gates of hell
but i can tell how hard your trying
I just have this secret hope
sometimes all we do is cope
but somewhere on the steepest slope
theres and endless rope
and nobody's crying
nobody's crying
nobody's crying


When the song was finished the highlighted part continued to play in my mind. These words spoke exactly what I was feeling at that moment in time. I played the song over and over again and I, once again, started to think. I am not the only one going through this. What I am thinking about myself is by no means the truth. Everything that I am doing is not wrong. I am not a screw-up no matter how many people tell me that I am. Love is never gone. Just because I choose not to date someone anymore does not mean all hope is lost. Love will come around when it is least expected. And maybe he didn't give a damn for me, maybe he did, the only one who knows is him. The only one that can tell me exactly what happened is him. But I do believe at one point people do have to give a damn about someone somewhere. Life is very depressing and lonely when lived alone. I believe as human beings we are all meant to be social, to make friends, to experience loss and to grow from what has happened.
