The 666th Post.

When I was younger
I saw my daddy cry
And cursed at the wind
He broke his own heart
And I watched
As he tried to reassemble it

And my momma swore that
She would never let herself forget
And that was the day I promised
I'd never sing of love
If it does not exist

But darlin,
You, are, the only exception
You, are, the only exception
You, are, the only exception

Maybe I know, somewhere
Deep in my soul
That love never lasts
And we've got to find other ways
To make it alone
Or keep a straight face

And I've always lived like this
Keeping a comfortable, distance
And up until now
I had sworn to myself that I was content
With loneliness
Cos none of it was ever worth the risk, but

You, are, the only exception
You, are, the only exception
You, are, the only exception
You, are, the only exception

I've got a tight grip on reality
But I can't
Let go of what's in front of me here
I know you're leaving
In the morning, when you wake up
Leave me with some proof it's not a dream

Ohh---
You, are, the only exception
You, are, the only exception
You, are, the only exception
You, are, the only exception
You, are, the only exception

And I'm on my way to believing it
Oh, and I'm on my way to believing it
- Paramore 'The Only Exception'

There are exceptions in Life. Similarly, when it comes to Love. There is always that one person. Your Achilles heel.

You would do almost anything for him/her and no one else will have this advantage over you. Some might think you're foolish for the way you feel. While others say you make no sense in your endeavours, in the things you do for this person. The world as you know it, might not necessarily understand why the distance? Where as cliche as it sounds, no mountain is high enough, no river wide enough. This person might be simply wonderful (in this sense, external understanding is easier) or he/she could honestly be, a bitch/jerk and it's your choice at the end of the day.

Within the confines of your mind, there could be no reasoning. No justification. And if there is, only you will know the real answer to the riddle on everyone's mouth. To you, there is no conformity or rules that apply, no generalisation when it comes to this person. This person sits on a pedestal in your heart. This person is special in your eyes. This person is an exception.

To the world you may be one person, to one person you may be the world.

Beautiful it is, when two people are each other's exception. Unfortunately, there has to be balance in the universe and not all exceptions are requited. Well, c'est la vie... they say.

This song is for Popystarz... to whom I said, "There is always an exception." Perhaps to him, you are babe :)
