“Years go by; will I still be waiting for somebody else to understand? Years go by if I’m stripped of my beauty and the orange clouds raining in me head.  Years go by; will I choke on my tears till finally there is nothing left? One more casualty you know we’re too easy, easy, easy…”  -Tori Amos

“So what does it matter now; I was swimming in the hate now I crawl on the ground.  And everything I never liked about you, is kind of seeping into me.  I try to laugh about it now but isn’t it funny how everything works out? I guess the jokes on me, she said -Nine Inch Nails

“Dearest, I feel certain that I am going mad again. I feel we can’t go through another of those terrible times. And I shan’t recover this time. I begin to hear voices, and I can’t concentrate. So I am doing what seems the best thing to do. You have given me the greatest possible happiness. You have been in every way all that anyone could be. I don’t think two people could have been happier ‘til this terrible disease came. I can’t fight any longer. I know that I am spoiling your life, that without me you could work. And you will I know. You see I can’t even write this properly. I can’t read. What I want to say is I owe all the happiness of my life to you. You have been entirely patient with me and incredibly good. I want to say that—everybody knows it. If anybody could have saved me it would have been you. Everything has gone from me but the certainty of your goodness. I can’t go on spoiling your life any longer. I don’t think two people could have been happier than we have been. V”

“They don’t know nothing about redemption. They don’t know nothing about recovery. Some people just aren’t the type for marriage and family. No mother ever dreams that her daughters going to grow up to be a junkie. No mother ever dreams that her daughters going to grow up to sleep alone.” -Against Me!

“Imagine there’s no countries, it isn’t hard to do. No need to kill or die for and no religions too. Imagine all the people: Living life in peace. You may say I’m a dreamer. But I’m not the only one; I hope someday you’ll join us. And the world will live as one” - John Lennon
