conflicted

Count on us all to follow our own swords tonight

Have you ever REALLY wanted to do something (or not do something) but know the consequences may be not worth taking action? How do you determine what route will lead you with the less regret? Brush the angel off your shoulder and follow the devil's lead. He is more of a badass anyway.

Where does it get you? honestly, doing what's RIGHT verses what you WANT? the gratification that you can make other people happy? Does it really matter if you yourself isn't happy? But what if your guilt drives you mad, and in the end, you aren't happy no matter what you choose?

Who determines what is right anyway? What if my right is your wrong? who chooses what is considered more important...?

I don't owe you anything. so why do i let the constant angel of reason into my head when i want to live my life and not sacrifice what i want for you... when you've done absolutely nothing in my favor. you mean nothing to me, and have proven that more than once.

but you do mean something to someone i care about. How selfish do i have to be to prove a point to myself and by doing so, hurting one of the people i love most.

Who wins this never ending battle of priorities and desires. Tonight... I will win. you need to surrender your ways, because I'm determined not to let you get the best of me. My courage will lead me victorious tonight. So i can fight another battle tomorrow.
