When broken hearts rise up to say love is a lie, You and I will stand to be love’s reply!

Justin Bieber may be a 15 year old boy with a 12 year old girl's singing voice and an 8 year old's face, but he does have some good lyrics. The title of this post is part of the song Common Denominator. The song is not perfect, because I definitely do not believe that "playing girls was my high" is a true statement about the boy's life. However, he sounds really good in the song and a lot of the other lyrics are quite good.

I'm allowing myself to get distracted from my paper. I need to get back to work.

It always frustrates me...

when people so much younger than I am are far more talented and/or successful than I will ever be.

How is it possible that someone who has just turned 17 can so eloquently describe the way I've been feeling for years? I've tried explaining, and it sounds more like complaining. I guess if I ever feel the need to describe how I feel now, I'll just play this song...
