About Me

I chose this quote as my opening because to me, it perfectly describes what I've observed throughout my life.
My name is Ashley. College student, game addict, and probably up to tomfoolery.
There's more to me than meets the eye (cliché'd but true).
I've always had a knack for writing and thoroughly enjoy expressing my opinions and ideas. Thus, this blog will be a mixture of whatever my mind blossoms.
I will give you the same level of kindness and respect that you offer in return.
I am not perfect nor do I have the audacity to think so.
Create something beautiful!

Still Alive

"Still Alive" by Lisa Miscovsky (Mirror's Edge)
You have changed
I have changed
Just like you
Just like you

For how long
For how long
Must I wait
I know there's something wrong

Your concrete heart isn't beating
And you tried to
Make it come alive...

No shadows
Just red lights
Now I'm here to rescue you

Oh, I'm still alive
I'm still alive
I can't apologise, no

Oh, I'm still alive
I'm still alive
I can't apologise, no

So silent
No violence
But inside my head
So loud and clear

You're screaming
You're screaming
Cover up with a smile I've learned to fear

Just sunshine
And blue sky
That's just how it goes
For living here

Come fire
Come fire
Let it burn and love come racing through

Oh, I'm still alive
I'm still alive
I can't apologise, no

Oh, I'm still alive
I'm still alive
I can't apologise, no

Learn to lose
Learn to win
Turn my face against the wind

I will move fast
I will move slow
Take me where I have to go

Oh, I'm still alive
I'm still alive
I can't apologise, no



This song resonates with me in so many ways. It's really quite hard to explain. Beautiful tune and lyrics, though.
Please listen <3
