6 Degrees of separation

You've read the books, you've watched the shows
what's the best way no one knows
You meditate, get hypnotized, anything to take it from your mind,
but won't go, you're doing all those things out of desperation
you're going through the six degrees of separation

You hit the drink, take a toke, watch the past go up in smoke
you fake a smile, you lie and say,"you're better than ever, your life's ok"
but it's not, you're doing these things out of desperation,
you're going through six degrees of separation

   !st you see a broken heart, what's going to kill you is the second part
   3rd is when your world splits down the middle, and
   4th you're going to think that you fixed yourself
   5th you see them out with someone else, and the
   6th is when you admit that you may have fucked up a little

No there ain't no help it's every man for himself
No, no there ain't no help it's every man for himself

You tell your friends, strangers too, anyone who'll throw an arm around you
tarot cards, gems and stones,  believin' all this shit's going heal your soul,
But it's not
You're only doing things out of desperation
You're going through the six degrees of separation

    1st you see the worst is a broken heart, what's going to kill you is the 2nd part
    3rd is when your world splits down the middle
    4th you're going to think you fixed yourself and the
    5th you see them out with someone else, and
    6th you admit that you may have fucked up a little

No, there's no starting over without finding closure
You take them back no hesitation
That's when you know you've reached the 6th degree of separation

The Script



This is so important to me right now.  This song speaks volumes because to me it fits both myself and Tammy.  We both have experienced these 6 degrees.   I think everyone has at some point on their lives, whether they want to admit it or not.
We have to choose what we see and we choose whether or not we want to fix the things that are wrong or what we perceive to be wrong in our lives.
I have chosen to see these things and change myself for the better.
Whatever happens, I will know in my heart that I have done whatever I know to be the right things, to make myself better as a person, and hopefully been able to inspire the other people in my life to do the same.  
This is what I'll be able to own.
If those people choose not to improve themselves on whatever level they seem fit, then that is they will own, not me.
