The Only Exception

And that was the day that I promised, I'd never sing of love if it does not exist. But darling, you are the only exception... And I've always lived like this, keeping a comfortable distance. And up until now I had sworn to myself that I'm content with loneliness. Because none of it was ever worth the risk. Well you are the only exception.

It's raining cat and dogs out there and Paramore's The Only Exception is playing on repeat to my mind. What's sounding is the sound of the rain touching the surface -and the rest, nothing even sounded..

The only thing that you can assure about life is.. everybody hurt. Everybody feel pain. No matter how much money they have in this world, no matter how much friends they have to go through days with them, no matter how much love they get. No matter how much money someone has stolen, no matter how much shots of Tequila someone choked down.. Everybody hurt. With no exception. What life offers, are simply just a pain killer. The pain's still there, but it eases off a bit.

Everybody hurt. This might not sound fair enough. But.. life as we know it, is somehow not fair at some particular point. Nevertheless, people learn from the pain. You know, life isn't as easy as school. We're examined after lesson. But life? We are examined, then lesson's learnt. We have to hurt first, so we would have known how it actually felt like. Like.. who would have known that being left over is one pain if I have never felt it? Who would have known that karma really does exist if it didn't hit me home at the first place? Nobody will have known.

Pain gives lesson. To let them know what life wouldn't tell them, literally. Because the thing about life, we were given no manual book. Ever since we were so small, no one has ever told us that life is gonna be rocky right? So, who'll do the part to tell us? Pain does.
