You ever have those songs that kind of tell it like it is for you at that moment? I have those a lot, Actually, I think "Charmed Life" is pretty much the way my life seems to be now, and in retrospect, for all of my adult life. I do things that could really screw my life up, and yet there is still redemption and new life at the end.
Some say it's the strong who survive
Sometimes I wonder if there's any truth to that at all
I've been lucky and that's a fact in a crazy world
I've led a charmed life
I know judges and I know priests
I know gangsters, bad cops and lawyers too
But I don't need none of them to sing this song
I've led a charmed life
No this ain't no hard luck story
Some have had better and some have had worse
Then again until you've walked my way
You'd have to say I've led a charmed life
I'm not so scared of dying
I've got my health , my friends and family too
I'm just afraid of living and not being sure
I've led a charmed life
No this ain't no hard luck story
Some have had better and some have had worse
But then again until you've walked in my shoes
You'd have to say I've led a charmed life
When the dice come tumbling down I'll be waiting
To see what luck comes my way
When the cards get passed around I'll be waiting
To see what hand I should play
I believe it's neither wrong or right
To cross that line from the dark to the light
And I say, "Even in the worst of times against all odds,
I seem to have led a charmed life."

My situation certainly isn't helped by the fact that both me and said hot boy are really shy around people we like. So now shit's just awkward. *sigh*
