I've been sitting here forever trying to figure out where to start this, because the truth is, I don't know where we started. Yeah, we met in sixth grade and everything, and we've gone over that a million times, but I don't think that's really when we became what we are to each other now. I think that moment happened the second we became Alissa & Lyz, the second we gave each other meaning- a reason to be.
What a lot of people don't realize is that, for us, Alissa & Lyz isn't just about music, or fame, or record deals, or YouTube contests. It's a friendship, a sisterhood. Alissa & Lyz defines us, it's everything we are and everything we've ever wanted to be, and it allows us to stand up for everybody who doesn't get the chances we've been blessed with. Plus, it saved us. We saved us. You saved me, I saved you. We taught each other how to pick up a guitar and pour our hearts out into a song, words that we've had all along to help us deal with the things we're feeling. I wouldn't want to do this with anyone else, you know. Not even Taylor Swift. As much as I love Taylor, there's no substitue for doing this with anyone else but you. I wouldn't change a thing, I wouldn't trade a single memory, experience, fight, tear, video, fangirl moment- for anything in the whole world. You're so beautiful, and so incredible, and so wonderful and you've got such heart and passion and it's amazing working with you, as well as getting lucky enough to be your soul sister these past four and a half years.
You're always there to catch me when I fall, and I love you for that. You always know the right thing to say, and I love you for that. You're a right pain in the neck half the time- and I love you for that. But most of all, I love you because I'll never give up on you if you'll never give up on me, and that's a promise.
