The Energy to Try by Justin Furstenfeld

You remember days when we were fine?
And you were mine, yeah, we’d laugh all day, all day.
Now there’s a retail hotel mirror,
Elevator contemplating these heart attacks,
Of somewhat panic attacks

Yeah, you’re home,
Yeah, you’re home,
You’re the butterfly guitar that sits on its own,
Am I supposed to write this storybook on how it goes?
I thought that you should know that,

I can’t bring you down,
I can’t bring you down,
I don’t wanna bring you down,
I never wanna bring you down,
I love you,
But I don’t have the energy to try,
The energy to try

You remember days when we were fine?
And you were mine, yeah, we’d laugh all day, all day
Now there’s a retail hotel mirror,
Elevator contemplating these artifacts,
Of what I call panic attacks

But still she’s home,
She’s my home,
She’s my butterfly guitar that sits on its own,
Am I supposed to write this storybook on how it goes?
I thought that you should know that,

I can’t bring you down,
I can’t bring you down,
I never wanna bring you down,
I’d never wanna bring you down,
I love you,
But I don’t have the energy to try,
The energy to try,
The energy to try,
Energy to try

Remember days when we were fine?
And you were mine, we’d laugh all day, all day.

Anonymous asked: You should link some stuff about his connection to various suicide prevention events, him speaking on Capital Hill, and the anti-bullying campaign (All about bullies big and small). He's got the remarkable ability to turn negative energy into something positive and use his passion to help people, through music & advocacy. He seems to have a very unusual, symbiotic relationships with the fans. He "gets" us and we "get" him, and that's healing for everyone. It's powerful to feel understood.

This is so very true, Anon. You’re right. We should definitely highlight these things on this blog. I’ll look into it later. And hopefully have some stuff posted next week. :)

Anonymous asked: I don't actually have a question, I just have to comment and have never used Tumblr before so I'm not sure how....I love what you've put together here. I find it oddly comforting to know others share in my obsessive admiration, connection and love for this guy. And the title is hilarious. :)

Thanks, Anon! I’m glad you found us. And I’m also glad you enjoy our blog (and Justin — he is wonderful). :)

Here’s The Worry List again because “Lisa” said we can’t post PHOTOS. So instead, we’ll watch this beautiful video.
