Be like a snake. Be nice to everyone, unless someone steps on you.
You call me up again just to break me like a promise; so casually cruel in the name of being honest; I’m a crumpled up piece of paper lying here; ’cause I remember it all, all, all too well.
All we are is skin and bone trained to get along.
I have sworn to only live free. Even if I find bitter the taste of death, I don’t want to die humiliated or deceived.
And I know I make the same mistakes every time. Bridges burn, I never learn. At least I did one thing right. I’m laughing with my lover, making forts under covers, trust him like a brother. – Call It What You Want.
I want to wear his initial on a chain round my neck not because he owns me but cuz he really knows me, which is more than they can say. – Call It What You Want.
But I got smarter, I got harder in the nick of time; honey I rose up from the dead, I do it all the time.
It is always more difficult to fight against faith than to fight against knowledge.
In the end, we only regret the chances we didn’t take.
I know you were on my side, even when I was wrong. And I love you for giving me your eyes, and for staying back and watching me shine.
This life’s sweeter than fiction.
You know the greatest films of all time were never made.
You drew stars around my scars but now I’m bleeding.
You gotta step into the daylight and let it go.
I was so ahead of the curve, the curve became a sphere.
For you, I’d ruin myself a million little times.
I want to watch wisteria grow right over my bare feet ’cause I haven’t moved in years.
And when I felt like I was an old cardigan under someone’s bed, you put me on and said I was your favorite.
I want to be defined by the things that I love. Not the things I hate, not the things I’m afraid of, not the things that haunt me in the middle of the night. I, I just think you are what you love.
How’s one to know, I’d meet you where the spirit meets the bones, in a faith-forgotten land, in from the snow, your touch brought forth an incandescent glow, tarnished but so grand.
