“I have felt this way before.
Back in the past,
the place of memories.
Somewhat like the stars in the sky
so bright and vast.
Like the beat of your heart.
So cold and lost.
What time leaves behind is not of what we are,
but who we were.
We are forever growing our story.
Each memory remembered,
but just as we can remember we can also forget…
as time goes on only the strong do survive,
which in this case become your life.
Memories… time… becomes your history.
So with time being mine,
I choose who I am everyday.
Not to what you thought I was going to be,
but to be who I want today.
And I want you to be more than just
a memory of this day.”
- Garret Nickelsen
“Stop taking advantage
of the things you have.
As easy as it can be found,
it can disappear.
People need to start holding
on to things better.
With life so fast paced these
days one bad thing comes
along and your gone.
People work way to hard
for everything to be here
and gone so quickly.
I’ve giving up everything
that is me for you.
So hold a little tighter
so you know what love feels like.”
- Garrett Nickelsen
“Life isn’t all that bad.
No matter what happens,
there’s always something good.
And you’ll find that somehow.
Be happy, why not?”

“I hate fake smiles in pictures because it’s not real. You are faking a moment of time so that you remember it as a happy one. Why not remember the time how it really was? It’s not that I’m a sad person, but if you’re going to capture a real moment of time, you should randomly take pictures. I like it better that way at least…”
- Garret Nickelsen
“I’m always tired, but I’m always thinking. Maybe thinking of what I don’t have, maybe thinking of what I don’t need. With time, everything changes, not a whole lot is left of the past. Mostly just a body. But I won’t forget… I’ll remember like I remember dreams. But as I sleep less, I’ll dream less. Pretty soon all I’ll have left are memories. Memories of amazing times with amazing people. Memories of living high, and dying low. I can’t see myself at 30. That doesn’t really scare me anymore because I’ve found “clarity” in my life through music. And that gives me hope. Hope that people can change. Hope that people can grow up. Hope that with all the differences in our lives, people can come together and notice something beautiful, and real. Hope that every day can be an amazing day. Now tell me what gives you “hope” in life? What makes you realize everything is really not bad?”
