You chose to beat me when i was already down, you laughed when i lost my crown but, now your words are tumbling down a lost spiral to you. You don´t pick up your slack even...

“The apple doesn't fall far from the tree." I guess that means we're just products of whoever made us and we don't have much control. The thing is, when people use that phrase, they ignore the most critical part: the falling. Within the logic of that saying, the apple falls every single time. Not falling isn't an option. So, if the apple has to fall, the most important question in my mind is what happens to it upon hitting the ground? Does it touch down with barely a scratch? Or does it smash on impact? Two vastly different fates. When you think about it, who cares about its proximity to the tree or what type of tree spawned it? What really makes all the difference, then, is how we land.”<br /> ― Val Emmich, Dear Evan Hansen

One second you can conquer the world and suddenly you have never felt so low<br /> .<br /> When you&#039;re surrounded by all these people, it can be even lonelier than when you&#039;re by yourself.
