2. i've decided to blog about haters today, and since my internet sucks, it'd be a pretty short post.
so i was reading on how taylor swift's songs are about different guys. honestly, i was very surprised. i've always thought of her as this blonde pretty face, with a bratty voice and cat eyes.
but she's more than that.
the complete opposite, actually.
she's soulful, and she's expressive and man, this girl is brave! i've always had a problem of sticking up for myself. usually i'd just blab everything to a close friend (usually over the phone :D) and then let myself get over it. but that takes ages. my last break up took me four years to feel okay again.
yes, we're friends again :D
anyway, after reading the looonggg post on taylor's songs on her new album "speak now", i scrolled down to read the comments. i was expecting to see millions of "ooo's" and "ahhh's" but all i got were... HATER COMMENTS
i mean, not everybody can agree that they enjoy something (or well, in this case someONE) but i feel a little appalled that people could just rudely express their views.
seriously, people, there are nicer words in the english language...
have you no remorse?
i've had haters,
who hasn't?
so here's a little advice
advice that i wish I could follow myself...
don't let haters get you down (oh! so cliche)
you don't have to stand up to them
that would only make things worse.
it would give them fuel to keep saying things.
to keep oppressing you.
BUCK UP
ignore their incessant barking.
they'll keep barking
and you'll keep walking
i was so brought down by what people said about me
i tried with my entire being to please them
that was stupid.
so,
don't please people
who can't ever be pleased with you.
cause you're wasting your time.
these people will keep saying things
about what you do, eat, wear, say.
they'll call you names,
curse at you
slash at you
all behind your back
and then
you're forced to ignore them
but hey,
i think i can safely say
you're not the only one
you're not alone.
take comfort in that
it's very comforting to know
you're not the only one
so hold your head up high
and show these
ATTENTION SEEKERS
that they're messing with the wrong person
show them what you're made of
laugh it off
laugh it all off
words won't kill you
so stop killing yourself inside
over what these
ATTENTION SEEKERS
say
because that's all they are;
liars,
pretenders,
ATTENTION SEEKERS
