So I decided to make this a series of oneshots, where I use an obeject to describe them. So yeah, this isn't nearly as good as Combat Boots. Thank you to superstar1030, Dream-to-reality123, and Jeremy Shane, and KnowMyNameNotMyStory for their kind words.
Disclaimer: Yeah right!
Flannel Shirt
I've always loved flannel shirts
Always worn them too
They take me back to my childhood
A time of hopes and dreams
...
Everyone thinks I've dreamed of becoming an actor
That's not entirely false
When I was a little I wanted to be a cowboy
A plaid shirt boot wearing rough n tough cowboy
...
But what cowboy's from Canada
I've never seen one once
We moved here when I was ten
I still never got my dream
...
A cowboy isn't a career Beck
That's what my mom told be
Actors rarely make it
Those are my father's words
...
I guess I'm used to disappointment
It happens all the time
It made me want to work and strive
Cause maybe they'll come true
...
No one knows my secret
My childish little dream
Everyone thinks I'm just the cool guy
I guess it's a good cover
...
They say I'm like a robot
My emotions aren't really strong
I used to be so open
Now I'm just deep and strangely poetic
...
I see how I make people feel
I do have eyes you know
I saw Jade in school that next day
I couldn't stand to look at her
...
I tell people she walked out on me
It's kinda true a little
We needed time apart
I don't know how to reverse it
...
I wish I could go back
To happy cheery times
A time when dreams seemed real
Before this life seemed to happen
...
But we don't always get second chances
They're really hard to come by
I wish I could redo it all
Starting from the cowboy
...
I wish things turned out different
I wish I still had Jade
We could be so happy
Dreams don't always come true
...
You'll all see someday world
Beck Oliver a megastar
But I'll always be that Canadian toddler
A cowboy of a dreamer
Again, I'm sorry for the randomness that is this. I just couldn't think of anything better, and couldn't get any new ideas.
