Do you ever feel the world's just waiting for you to do something wonderful? I don't know what gives me that feeling. Whether it's the repressed egotistical side of me who feels he will one day change the world, or the more casually expressed insecure me who'd also like to change the world, but is too afraid of stepping on someone's toes to do it. 'Oh, what's that? Oh you're changing the world too? You go ahead then... I'll wait.'
Maybe that's all too much. Maybe I should aim lower. I want to be a superhero. I want to put on tights and a cape and fight crime syndicates. And I want to fly a jet plane. Or one of those planes that writes letters in the sky. And I want to be a painter, and bleed my life onto canvas. I want to be that person that everyone thinks back on and says, 'What a cool guy he was.' And I want to build a palace on the moon, and own a spaceship. I want to be a songwriter, and live on the Californian coast. Or I want to be a music critic and spend my life listening to records and then being an absolute snob about them. I want to build a grass hut in Tahiti, and then give up architecture forever.
But really, really I want to change the world.
