I don’t want to fix my own problems. I want some knight in shining armor to come in and make everything perfect. Remembering that other people or things can’t make me happy is really hard sometimes. What happens when I don’t have the strength to take care of myself?

30 minutes in my living room and being completely delirious after spending 9 hours at Schlitterbahn results in covers of Lil’ Wayne. It’s all vocals and my guitar. ALTHOUGH, my brother left his bass drum here, so the bass is actually a bass drum. Awww yeah. My favorite parts are:
1. Amy and Wyatt walking into the house around 0:53.
2. My vocal BOOM BOOOM BOOOOOMMMM throughout the whole song.
3. Jrob at the VERY end going “sweet.”
My friend is super awesome! I just wanted to make sure more people could hear this!

Dedicated to my friend Shannon ♥ but anyone else can reblog it of course :)
Oh. My. God.
I just want someone to say I get it, and really mean it. Not because it’s the appropriate thing to say, but because they actually understand what I’m going through.
