I wanna up stage the lead in a climactic movie scene
I wanna feel the heat of public rage press upon my cheeks
I wanna be less scared around those minds still asleep
I wanna run two miles naked down regent street
I want to play the cello to confused teenage fans
I want to discover unfucked humans in an unfucked land
I want to build a viking ship with my bare hands
I want to be somewhere no one understands the little gestures in the way I stand
I wanna save an unsuspecting life from an overdose
I wanna say I love you to, then let eachother go
I wanna listen in on my ex girlfriends new boyfriends phone
I wanna feel alive before I'm the new barmaids idea of too old
I want to gather up the cities rations then watch them burn
I want to be the second to last man on earth
I want to walk the world in my favourite T-shirt
I want to be in the company of like minded thinkers who start every sentence with 'for what it's worth'
I don't think I want anything, nobody else, hasn't ever wanted, and maybe the same goes for everyone, I'll ever meet. Uniqueness seems like nothing but a modern myth to me. If we're all unique then we're all the same aren't we? We're quite simple underneath all of our bullshit I think therefore, when hungry eat, when tired sleep, when happy repeat, when unhappy leave

When you go to Regent Street,
Make sure that I'm there,
I wanna see your boldness,
I wanna see your flair.
Show the world your prowess,
Let life's tourists stare. 🙂
Read this and thought, this should be accompanied by 'fanfare for the common man' music.
So many realities tease my own dreams creating wannabe's within me. They're all there within our amazing brain together with the sure knowledge that we'd be considered insane to act them out.
Very brave to write like this and be taken seriously.
Yeah you hunger , you eat! You tire, you sleep! Simples! But now explain why you write? ..... all the same?.... i don't think so.
I\'ll meet you on regent street dusk 🙂 haha. I\'m aware the content could be perceived as over simplified, but that\'s kind of the point..do what makes you happy, lifes too short to be taken seriously..which is exactly why I write, it took a couple of years to become kind of.fearless in what I write, but now it's the only way I can write. 😀
Love love love!
