air brushed t-shirts and homemade pork skins

They are ALIVE and WELL!
Today, yes Saturday, i had to drive to Co-Lin community college for work. As I approach my turn i see cars lined up as far as i could see. As I get closer to the madness, i see the sign, "Wesson Flea Market; October 18th"
My initial thought was, "crap, I am going to be late." But the humorous situation I found myself in was second to none. People everywhere. I literally was driving my honda through a sea of people brushing against my car with their bodies. It was insane. But, in the crowd, there she was, wearing a doo-rag, and wearing a big smile. She was showing her husband her newly airbrushed sweat shirt... and then a few seconds later, I notice everyone carrying bags of something and as I looked closer, I noticed it was homemade pork skins!
Friends, to my knowledge this is a rebirth of a lost art. God bless America!

When you try your best, but you don't succeed
When you get what you want, but not what you need
When you feel so tired, but you can't sleep
Stuck in reverse
And the tears come streaming down your face
When you lose something you can't replace
When you love someone, but it goes to waste
Could it be worse?

Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you
And high up above or down below
When you're too in love to let it go
But if you never try you'll never know
Just what you're worth
Tears stream down on your face
I promise you I will learn from my mistakes
Tears stream down your face
And I...
