Song/Quote of the day!

[Spellbound]

Cause you know it's you, babe
Whenever I get weary and I've had enough
Feel like giving up
You know it's you, babe
Giving me the courage and the strength I need
Please believe that it's true
Babe, I love you

[Palmolive]

I never loved nobody fully,
Always one foot on the ground,
And by protecting my heart truly,
I got lost in the sounds,

I hear in my mind all of these voices,
I hear in my mind all of these words,
I hear in my mind all of this music,

And it breaks my heart,
And it breaks my heart,
And it breaks my heart,
When it breaks my heart,

And suppose I never ever met you,
Suppose we never fell in love,
Suppose I never ever let you,
Kiss me so sweet and so soft,

Suppose I never ever saw you,
Suppose we never ever called,
Suppose I kept on singing love songs,
Just to break my own fall,

Just to break my fall,
Just to break my fall,
Just to break my fall,
Break my fall,
Break my fall,

All my friends say that of course,
It's gonna get better,
Gonna get better,
Better better better better,
Better better better!

I never love nobody fully,
Always one foot on the ground,
And by protecting my heart truly,
I got lost in the sounds,

I hear in my mind all of these voices,
I hear in my mind all of these words,
I hear in my mind all of this music,

And it breaks my heart,
And it breaks my heart,

I hear in my mind all of these voices,
I hear in my mind all of these words,
I hear in my mind all of this music,

And it breaks my heart,
And it breaks my heart,
It breaks my heart,

When it breaks my heart,
When it breaks my heart,
When it breaks my heart,
Breaks my heart,

When it breaks my heart,
When it breaks my heart,
When it breaks my heart,
When it breaks my heart.

Oh baby you're too pure
You're too pure for this wicked world
Your data's uncorrupted
But does something skip inside you?

That's what takes up time in this life
Add up the sum of the slights and
Sooner or later
Love comes inside you, gets behind you
Takes you under it's wing
Is it some kind of function?
A reconstruction of what you've always been?

Sense memory, that's so passe
Is that what passes for vision these days?
I engineer no strangeness
I don't have that modern streak
What fills up this space in your life?
Does the sum of the slights hurt?
Sooner or later
Love comes inside you, gets behind you
Takes you under it's wing
Is it some kind of function?
A reconstruction of what you've always been?

Time can't hurt you
I can't be bothered to get you alone in this world
You can do it youself, but make your ends known to your means and your lovers

Drop your guard, get over yourself
Kick your shoes to the floor and
Run from your cover, run to the other side of your head and I'll stand right by you

[Palmolive]

I had a dream
Crispy crispy Benjamin Franklin came over
Baby-sat all four of my kids

Then in my dream
I told the doctor off
He said if you don't want to do it
then you don't have to do it
He said the truth is
You'll be okay, anyway

Then in my dream
Crispy crispy Benjamin Franklin and the doctor
Went and had a talk with my boss

Something about insurance policies
They kept the door closed at all times
I couldn't hear or see

When they came out they said
You'll be okay, anyway
And I smiled cause I'd known it all the while.

No thank you no thank you no thank you no thank you
I ain't about to pay for this shit
I can afford chemo like I couldn't afford a limo
and on any given day I'd rather ride a limousine

No thank you no thank you no thank you no thank you
I ain't about to to die like this
I can afford chemo like I couldn't afford a limo
And besides this shit is making me tired
it's making me tired
it's making me tired
You know I plan to retire some day,
And I'm gonna go out in style
go out in style
This shit it's making me tired
it's making me tired
it's making me tired
But mama's gonna go out in style, go out in style

When I woke up
My kids were being quiet
I knew it was a dream right away
I called the limousine company

Then I got dressed
I dressed the kids as well
The limousine pulled in
And we piled in

The doctor he asked which way we were headed
I said, Sir, let's just go west and he listened obediently,
Sophie only wants to listen to radio BBC
Michael sat on my knees and whispered to me
All about the meanies
Jacqueline was being such a big girl
with her cup of tea looking out of the window
And Barbara
She looks just like my mom
Oh my Barbara
She looks so much like my mom

No thank you no thank you no thank you no thank you
I ain't about to pay for this shit
I can afford chemo like I couldn't afford a limo
and on any given day I'd rather ride a limousine

No thank you no thank you no thank you no thank you
I ain't about to die like this
I can afford chemo like I couldn't afford a limo
And besides this shit is making me tired
it's making me tired
it's making me tired
You know I plan to retire some day,
But mama's gonna go out in style
go out in style
This shit it's making me tired
it's making me tired
it's making me tired
But mama's gonna go out in style go out in style

Style.
Style.
Style.
Style.
Style.
Style.
Style.
Style.

I had a dream
Crispy crispy Benjamin Franklin came over and
Baby-sat all four of my kids

I had a dream
Crispy crispy Benjamin Franklin came over and
Baby-sat all four of my kids

Sophie only want to tune us into radio BBC
Michael sat on my knees and whispered to me
All about the meanies
Jacqueline was being such a big girl
with her cup of tea looking out of the window
And Barbara
She looks just like my mom
Oh my Barbara
She looks so much like my mom

Oh my God, Barbara
She looks so much just like my mom...

[Stardaze]

I run from pain
I run from prejudice
I run from pessimists
But I run too late
I run my life
Or is it running me
Run from my past
I run too fast
Or too slow it seems
When lies become the truth
That’s when I run to you

Chorus
This world keeps spinning faster
Into a new disaster so I run to you
I run to you baby
And when it all starts coming undone
Baby you’re the only one I run to
I run to you

We run on fumes
Your life and mine
Like the sands of time
Slippin’ right on through
And our love’s the only truth
That’s why I run to you

[luvflamingos]

Already Gone / Kelly Clarkson

Remember all the things we wanted
Now all our memories, they're haunted
We were always meant to say goodbye

[noise94]

They say if it doesn't kill you it'll make you stronger.
Oh, but I can't be without you any longer.

[Palmolive]

I was pulling out my hair
The day I got the deal
Chemically calm
Was I meant to feel happy
that my life was just about to change

One life pretending to be
The cat who got the cream
Oh, everybody said
"Marina is a dreamer"
People like to tell you

What you're gonna be
It's not my problem if you don't see what I see
And I do not give a damn if you don't believe
My problem its my problem
That I never am happy
It's my problem, it's my problem
On how fast I will succeed

Are you satisfied with an average life ?
Do I need to lie to make my way in life ?

High achiever don't you see
Baby, nothing comes for free
They say I'm a control freak
Driven a greed to succeed
Nobody can stop me

Cause it's my problem
If I want to pack up and run away
It's my business if I feel the need to
Smoke and drink and sway
It's my problem, it's my problem
If I feel the need to hide
And it's my problem if I have no friends
And feel I want to die

Are you satisfied with an average life ?
Do I need to lie to make my way in life ?
Are you satisfied with an average life ?
Do I need to lie to make my way in life ?
Are you satisfied with an easy ride ?
Once you cross the line
Will you be satisfied?

Sad inside ... in this life ... Unsatisfied, praying

Are you satisfied with an average life
Do I need to lie to make my way in life

Are you satisfied with an easy ride
Once you cross the line
Will you be satisfied?

[Elle_Dorado]

Music starts playing like the end of a sad movie
It's the kinda ending you don't really wanna see
Cause it's tragedy and it'll only bring you down
Now I don't know what to be without you around
-Breathe by Taylor Swift

[Prozac]

My hands are cold
My body's numb
I'm still in shock
What have you done
My head is pounding
My vision's blur
Your mouth is moving
I don't hear a word

And it hurts so bad
That I search my skin
For the entry point
Where love went in
And ricocheted
And bounced around
And left a hole when you walked out

I'm falling through the doors of the emergency room
Can anybody help me with these exit wounds
I don't know how much more love, this heart can lose
And I'm dying, dying from these exit wounds
Wounds, where their leaving, the scars you're keeping
Exit wounds

Marks a battle
Still feel raw
A million pieces of me
On the floor
I'm damaged goods
For all to see
Now who would ever want to be with me

I've got all the baggage
Drink the pills
Yeah this is living but without the will
Blacken out
I'm shutting down
You've left a hole
You walked out

Lose your clothes and show your scars
That's who you are

[WillO'Wisp]

Why didn't I listen to my heart
When he had me guessin' from the start
More and more I wonder
Why do I still want him
After all the love I gave to you
All this pain and all because of you


Still had those letters from last fall
And everytime the phone rings
Wish it was your call
More and more I wonder
Why do I still want him
After all the love I gave to you
All this pain I'm in because of you



Why did you have to hide
Loved you for all your lies
One thing I know is true
Ill never stop
Lovin' you
So tell me


What am I supposed to do
When it's all a lie
Where am I supposed to go
When it's dark outside
What am I supposed to do
When it's all a lie
Won't you lie to me lie to me baby
Lie to me lie to me baby
Won't you lie to me baby
One last time

Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

I don't think I'm gonna go to LA anymore.
I don't think I'm gonna go to LA anymore.
I don't know what it's like to land and
Not race to your door.
I don't think I'm gonna go to LA anymore.

I don't think I'm gonna go to LA anymore.
I'm not sure that I really ever could.
Hold on to a hotel key in your
Bedroom neighborhood.
And we're sleep-walking in Hollywood.

I'm gonna steer clear.
Burn up in your atmosphere.
I'm gonna steer clear,
Cause I'd die if I saw you.
I'd die if I didn't see you there.
So I don't think I'm gonna go to LA anymore.
Cause I miss you.

I don't think I'm gonna go to LA anymore.
I get lost on the boulevard at night.
Without your voice to tell me I love you take a right.
The ten and the two is a lonely sight.

I'm gonna steer clear,
Burn up in your atmosphere.
I'm gonna steer clear
Cause I'd die if I saw you.
I'd die if I didn't see you.
I'm gonna steer clear,
Burn up in your atmosphere.
I'm gonna steer clear
Cus I'd die if I saw you.
I'd die if I didn't see you there.
See you there

I think I'm gonna stay,
gonna stay in the gray, gonna stay.
All the street lights say nevermind, nevermind.
All the canyon lines say nevermind.
Sunset says we see this all the time nevermind,
never you mind.

Where I go, whatever I do,
I wonder where I am in my relationship with you.
Wherever you go, wherever you are,
I watch that pretty life lay out in pictures from afar.

[Magical Forest.]

Angels watching over me with smiles upon their face
Cause I have made it through this far in an unforgiving place
It feels sometimes this hill's too steep for a girl like me to climb
But I must knock those thoughts right down I'll do it in my own time

I don't care (care care)
I'm half way there (nowhere)
On a road that leads me to straight to who knows where

I tell you what (I tell you what)
What I have found (What I have found)
That I'm no fool (That I'm no fool)
I'm just upside down (Just upside down)

Ain't got no cares (Ain't got no cares)
I aint got no rules (Aint got no rules)
I think I like (I think I like)
Living upside down (Living upside down)
Watchin people scurry by rushing to and fro
Oh this world is such a crazy place it's all about the go go go

Sometimes life can taste so sweet When you slow it down
You start to see the world a little differently When you turn it upside down

I don't care (care care)
I'm half way there (nowhere)
And I'm just soaking up the magic in the air

(Whoa Whoa Whoa)
You gotta slow it down
(Yeah Yeah Yeah)
But then you pick it up
(Whoa Yeah Whoa)
C'mon and try a little topsy-turvy back-to-front the right way round
Take it slow slow slow (You gotta pick it up)
Yeah Yeah Yeah (See you slow it down)
Hey Yo Yo Yo (Tell me something something)

I tell you what (I tell you what)
What I have found (What I have found)
That I'm no fool (That I'm no fool)
I'm just upside down (Just upside down)

[Palmolive]

You want me to come over I got an excuse
Might be holding your hand, but im holding it loose
Go to talk then we choke its like our necks in a noose
Avoid the obvious we should be facing the truth

Start to think it could be fizzling out
Kinda shocked because I never really had any doubts
Look into your eyes imagine life with out ya

And the love kick starts again
Starts again

And the Love kick starts again
Starts again

Its the same old you the same old me
You get bored and I get cold feet
Get high get wandering eyes
Forget ive never ever had it so sweet
I realise what I got when Im out of town
Cause deep down youre my girl in a golden crown
My princess and I dont wanna let you down
No I Dont wanna let you down down down down

You want me to come over I got an excuse
Might be holding your hand but im holding it loose
Go to talk then we choke its like our necks in a noose
Avoid the obvious we should be facing the truth

Start to think it could be fizzling out
Kinda shocked because I never really had any doubts
Look into your eyes imagine life with out ya

kick starts again

Start to think it could be fizzling out
Kinda shocked because I never really had any doubts
Look into your eyes imagine life with out ya
Imagine life with out ya
Imagine life with out ya
Imagine life with out ya

And the love kick starts again
Starts again

And the love kick starts again
Starts again

kick kick starts

Its the same old you the same old me

Get high get wandering eyes
Forget ive never ever had it so sweet

Cause deep down youre my girl in a golden crown
My princess and I dont wanna let you down

Start to think it could be fizzling out
Kinda shocked because I never really had any doubts
Look into your eyes imagine life with out ya

And the love kick starts again!

Ain’t it funny how you think
you’re gonna be okay
til you remember things ain’t never
gonna be the same again?

[Prozac]

Episode four leads us away from here. Don't expect to find what your will intends. I can see the light leading away from you. Let's disappear, we'll take a trip of no return to outer space. And swim in pools which keep us warm. Cleaned off the scent from off your faith.
We'll dance off time to the songs we've never liked. And sing off key, thinkin it sounds alright.
And you know I almost lost my will to live.
Show and tell turning your episode four.

[Storyteller.]

And just remember,
keep it together.

[skydivers-in-reverse]

Dinner's getting cold --
You haven't touched a thing
So what's it gonna be?
I can hold out much longer than you
When it's steady I'm just acting out my roles
When you're ready I'll be walking out that door
And don't call me Pretty Baby anymore,
Oh, foolish worker bee --
I'm your fucking queen.

I threw out the phone to try to get through to you
The lines are down, drowned by the hum of the radiator
This house is the hole that you could never fill
With rose-blossomed bouquets, vanities and loveseats

Sad little boy, I know you get confused
But everyone goes through these trials of self-truth and self-abuse
When you're selfless you're so hard not to adore
When you're selfish, I just love you even more
I want to help you, but you've got to say the words:
"I want to be cured."

Drowned...
Deep in this hole we've dug for ourselves
Throw me in -- headfirst, submerged in this great depression
Impoverished, and Impotent....

...And Don't Call Me Pretty Baby

I threw out the phone to try to get through to you
The lines are down, drowned by the hum of the radiator
This house is the hole that you could never fill
With shattered dinner plates
That's how we'll communicate

Hey, Pretty Baby, are you ready for bed?

[niente_]

Just something that was said today.

I'm bored of this game.
C: I'm bored of your mum.

[Twinge]

Trying to be misunderstood,
Just a product of my childhood,
Still I find myself outside,
You can’t say I haven’t tried,
Perhaps I tried too hard,
No excuses,
I Won’t apologise,
To justify your lies,
Come find me,
Tell them to me,
Look me in the eyes

I’ll be misunderstood,
By the beautiful and good in this city,
None of this was planned,
Take me by the hand,
just don’t try and understand

-Robbie Williams

"Cause girl you are amazin', just the way you areeee."

[Storyteller.]

You used to talk to me like
I was the only one around.
You used to lean on me like
the only other choice was falling down.

We never thought.
We used to know.
At least there's you,
and at least there's me.
Can we get this back?
Can we get this back
to how it used to be?

I used to reach for you when
I got lost along the way.
I used to listen.
You always had just the right thing to say.

I look around me,
and I want you to be there
'cause I miss the things
that we shared.
Look around you.

[Spellbound]

With a taste of your lips
I'm on a ride
You're toxic, I'm slipping under
With a taste of poison paradise
I'm addicted to you
Don't you know that you're toxic?
And I love what you do
Don't you know that you're toxic?

[savealife723]

For the longest time I thought I'd lost the best of me
But I'll be damned if I quit now and that for sure
All I ever wanted was for you to look at me
And know I'm all yours

Like the penguins need their wings for deep cold water dives
Like the earth needs the moon to keep it on course
When you touch me, I know there is purpose in my life
Just know I'm all yours

I'm a mess, I confess that I'm nothing without you
And there is nothing I can do to prove to you I'm being honest
Now I see, everything; and yes I've known it all along
I was so lost, but I'm back and I finally know now where my heart belongs

I've been wondering if you could ever realize
That we're growing up so fast and it's insane
My dear our hearts have gotten good at pumping cheap new lust
Into our young veins
Suddenly I understand everything I couldn't comprehend

I'm a mess, I confess that I'm nothing without you
And there is nothing I can do to prove to you
I'm being honest
Now I see, everything; and yes I've known it all along
I was so lost, but I'm back
and I finally know now where my heart belongs

All this time I've spent without you by my side, I dreamt about you
Saw you through the windows in my mind
Carved a home for you deep down inside my chest
And I never want to lose such a big part of me again
...lose such a big part of me again

I'm a mess, I confess that I'm nothing without you
And there is nothing I can do to prove to you I'm being honest
Now I see, everything; and yes I've known it all along
I was so lost, but I'm back and I finally know now where my heart belongs

[Prozac]

I can't describe, I can't believe how I feel inside
I know I just met you the other night
But I've never felt anything
That felt so right

I want you to take my lips
And make them yours
Take my fears and let my heart soar
'Cause I've never felt like this before
So won't you take my lips
And make them yours

I can feel your body next to mine
Everytime I close my eyes
Everytime I feel your breath up on my skin
I can't wait to be with you again and again

So won't you take my lips
And make them yours
Take my vision
And let my heart soar
Cause I've never felt like this before
So won't you take my lips
And make them yours

And baby I oh I wanna take your body
Your body so close to mine
I wanna take your body
And make love last for all time

You know I want to make sweet love to you baby

So take my lips and make them yours
Baby take my vision and all my heart to soar
'Cause I've never felt like this before
So take my lips
And make them yours
Come on now
So will you take my lips
And make them yours

[Palmolive]

It's a blue, bright blue Saturday, hey hey
And the pain's starting to slip away, hey hey

I'm in a backless dress on a pastel ward that's shining
Think I want you still
But there may be pills at work

Do you really wanna know how I was dancing on the floor?
I was trying to phone you as I'm crawling out the door
I'm amazed at you, the things you say and that you don't do
Why don't you ring?

I was feeling lonely, feeling blue
Feeling like I needed you
Like I'm walking up surrounded by me
A&E

It's a blue, bright blue Saturday, hey hey
And the pain's starting to slip away, hey hey

I'm in a backless dress on a pastel ward that's shining
They gotta watch you still
But there may be pills at work

How did I get to accident and emergency?
All I wanted was you to take me out high
And I was feeling lonely, feeling blue
Feeling like I needed you
Like I hoped you'd call and hoped you'd see me

But When the Little Fellow... by I Can Make a Mess Like Nobody's Business

I remember a man who was true to himself, if he put his mind to something it was done, he could
Help everyone just by doing what he loved, he could work with his hands so good, but when no one
Cares to know, that he works them to the bone.

He comes home to himself and he sits in his chair, gets lost inside pictures on the wall, he's
Had some loves in his life that he's lost but knows why, he's lived with mistakes for so
Long...he's the best man that i know, he sleeps happy all alone, he gives me

Hope for the best in everyone, in understanding what we've done, i laugh to myself, it gives me
Hope for the best for what we lost, to understand when no one wants, it makes me laugh, it gives
Me hope.

I know this lady who grew up so quickly, she had a child when she was so young, without the time
Or money to pursue what she wanted, she slowly lost touch with her love, i bet she tried to run,
But she didn't have the guts to leave her, son who was born on a day in the spring, grew up to
Respect her so much, for all that she had lost and for never giving up, for loving the mistake
That she loved...well lady you deserve more than anyone i know, you give me

Hope for the best in everyone, in understanding what we've done, i laugh to myself, it gives me
Hope for the best for what we lost, to understand when no one wants, it makes me laugh, it gives
Me hope.

I'm sitting alone and i think to myself, it'd be great if people could know, if we wore big tags
Or we threw big parties where only lost people could go, so we'd never think we're wrong, and
We'd never feel alone...alone.

"We encounter each other in words, Words spiny or smooth, whispered or declaimed; Words to consider, reconsider." ~ Elizabeth Alexander.

[Twinge]

...when I hear these lyrics, it always feels like for the 1st time:

This life aint the fairy tale we both thought it would be
But i can see your smiling face as it's staring back at me
I know we both see these changes now
I know we both understand somehow

There's a life inside of me
That i can feel again
It's the only thing that takes me
Where i've never been
I don't care if i lost everything that i have known
It don't matter where i lay my head tonight
Your arms feel like home

[savealife723]

I'm not calling you a liar
just dont lie to me
I'm not calling you a thief
just dont steal from me
I'm not calling you a ghost
just stop haunting me

i love you so much
that i'm going to let you kill me

don't tell me what you've done
don't tell me what you've done
don't tell me what you've done

i'm too tired to fight
i'm just going to lay right here
but im angry to sleep
without you near
i'm not at home with myself
i'm not at home with you either
i'm to scared to leave
but i never seem safe here

theres a ghost in my lungs
and it ties in my sleep
wraps its self around my chest
as it softly sleeps
then it walks with my legs
with my legs
to fall at your feet

theres a ghost in my lungs
and it ties in my sleep
wraps its self around my chest
as it softly sleeps
then it walks with my legs
with my legs
to fall at your feet

dont tell me what you've done
dont tell me what you've done
dont tell me what you've done

I'm not calling you a liar
just dont lie to me

i love you so much
that i'm going to let you kill me.

They Looked Like Strong Hands by Bayside

This isn't who I am.
From confidence to self doubt in 60 seconds.
Storming stages and stereos from here to there,
trying to prove that I belong.
Trying to win approval from people that I don't know.

And I look so strong
when the weight of all the world
don't take its toll.
And I'd choose my sides
if I believed in what was right,
but I'm all wrong.

I'm not larger than life, I'm not taller than trees.
Do I mean what I say? Is it just this disease where I never go home.
Never telling the truth how this life eats away.
Not admitting I'm fake
and I'm questioning whether this whole thing was worth it to die poor and all alone?

And I look so strong
when the weight of all the world
don't take its toll.
And I'd choose my sides
if I believed in what was right,
but I'm all wrong.

Just don't tell me this doesn't mean the world,
'cause my ears would bleed and my heart would hit the floor.

And I look so strong
when the weight of all the world
don't take its toll.
And I'd choose my sides
if I believed in what was right,
but I'm all wrong.

[noise94]

Oh, life is bigger
It's bigger than you
And you are not me
The lengths that I will go to
The distance in your eyes
Oh no, I've said too much
I set it up

That's me in the corner
That's me in the spotlight, I'm
Losing my religion
Trying to keep up with you
And I don't know if I can do it
Oh no, I've said too much
I haven't said enough
I thought that I heard you laughing
I thought that I heard you sing
I think I thought I saw you try

Every whisper
Of every waking hour I'm
Choosing my confessions
Trying to keep an eye on you
Like a hurt lost and blinded fool, fool
Oh no, I've said too much
I set it up

I set it up
Consider this
Consider this
The hint of the century
Consider this
The slip that brought me
To my knees failed
What if all these fantasies
Come flailing around?
Now I've said too much

But that was just a dream
That was just a dream

But that was just a dream
Try, cry, why try?
That was just a dream
Just a dream, just a dream
Dream

[Prozac]

Don't it feel like the wind is always howling?
Don't it seem like there's never any light?
Once a day, don't you wanna throw the towel in?
It's easier than putting up a fight.

It's the hard knock life for us
It's the hard knock life for us
Instead of treated, we get tricked
Instead of kisses, we get kicked

It's the hard knock life

We live in hard knocks, we don't take over we borrow blocks
I see you vision mama, I put my money on the longshots
Now Imma be on top whether I perform or not
I went from lukewarm to hot; sleepin on futons and cots

No one's there when your dreams at night get creepy
No one cares if you grow or if you shrink
No one dries when your eyes get wet and weepy
From all the crying you would think this place's a sink

It's the hard knock life for us
It's the hard knock life for us
Instead of treated, we get tricked
Instead of kisses, we get kicked
It's the hard knock life
It's the hard knock life for us

[Power Cosmic]

No one dared to
Speak of the terrible danger
The hideous ancient warnings
Forged in the void of night

He has risen up
Out of the blackness
Chaos
The last of the prophets
Sinister
A sickening monstrous sight

Through the stifling heat
Underneath the pale green moon

I burned with a thirst
To seek things not yet seen

Climbing endless stairs
Leading to the choking room

Eager to explore
His most shocking mysteries

Drifting beyond all time
Out of a churning sky
Drawn to the beckoning light
Of the dark eternal night

Black forces
Rage in the vortex,
Fighting
Waves of destruction
Swallowing
The echo of the universe

I am the last
Born of the blood of the pharaohs
The ultimate god of a rotting creation
Sent to unleash this curse

Restless crowds draw near
Nameless hooded forms appear

Amidst fallen ruins
Grotesque creatures battle

Shadowed on a screen
Yellow evil faces leer

Vacant monuments
Corpses of dead worlds left behind

Drifting beyond all time
Out of a churning sky
Drawn to the beckoning light
Of the dark eternal night

Trapped in a hellish dream
Spinning past worlds unseen
And frightfully vanishing
Into the dark eternal night

Drifting beyond all time
Out of a churning sky
Drawn to the beckoning light
Of the dark eternal night

Trapped in a hellish dream
Spinning past worlds unseen
And frightfully vanishing
Into the dark eternal night

"There is no more valuable precept in moral education than this, as all who have experience know: if we wish to conquer undesirable emotional tendencies, we must assiduously, and in the first instance cold-bloodedly, go through the outward movements of those contrary dispositions which we prefer to cultivate. The rewards of persistance will infallibly come.... Smooth the brow, brighten the eye, contract the dorsal rather than the ventral aspect of the frame, and speak in a major key, pass the genial compliment, and your heart must be frigid indeed if it do not gradually thaw!!"

~ William James, The Principles of Psychology, 1890. (Vol II, p. 463)

Iris -- Goo Goo Dolls


And I'd give up forever to touch you
Cause I know that you feel me somehow
You're the closest to heaven that I'll ever be
And I don't want to go home right now

And all I can taste is this moment
And all I can breathe is your life
And sooner or later it's over
I just don't want to miss you tonight

And I don't want the world to see me
Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am
And you can't fight the tears that ain't coming
Or the moment of truth in your lies
When everything feels like the movies
Yhea you bleed just to know you're alive

And I don't want the world to see me
Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

[Spellbound]

It's tearin' up my heart when I'm with you
But when we are apart I feel it too
And no matter what I do I feel the pain
With or without you

[Ritz13]

You know you're stomping the roses
Smashing out all the feeling inside, of them
It's bad business
The way you're stomping the roses
Everyone knows it

-Stomping the Roses, David Archuleta

[Palmolive]

Triggering.


Here I stand,
Empty hands,
Wishing my wrists were bleeding,
To stop the pain from the beatings,

There you stood,
Holding me,
Waiting for me to notice you,

But who are you,
You are the truth,
Outscreaming these lies,
You are the truth,
Saving my life,

The warmth of your embrace,
Melts my frostbitten spirit,
You speak the truth and I hear it,
The words are I love you,
And I have to believe in you,

But who are you,
You are the truth,
Outscreaming these lies,
You are the truth,
Saving my life,

My hands are open,
And you are filling them,
Hands in the air,
In the air, in the air, in the air,

And I worship,
And I worship,
And I worship,
And I worship,

You are the truth,
Outscreaming these lies,
You are the truth,
Saving my life.
