    "Cold pizza, tie-dye shirts, broken hearts, give them here, give them. Hand-me-downs, give me, give me leftovers. Give me, give me sloppy seconds. Give them here, give them here." -Sloppy Seconds by Watsky

    "For just one second I felt whole, as you flew right through me and up into the stars." -Sorrow by Flyleaf

    If I walk down this hallway tonight
    It's too quiet, so I pad through the dark
    And call you on the phone
    Push your old numbers and let your house ring
    Till I wake your ghost

    Let him walk down your hallway
    It's not this quiet, slide down your receiver
    Sprint across the wire
    Follow my number, slide into my hand

    It's the blaze across my nightgown
    It's the phone's ring

    I think last night
    You were driving circles around me

    Your Ghost
    Kristin Hersh

    I am a lone wolf
    A beauty and a beast
    Both hunter and hunted
    Soft tongue and sharp teeth
    I toned from my travels
    Yet raw from this road
    As I drink from storm puddles
    And the stories I'm told

    I have seen angels
    They were sleeping in gutters
    They were standing in bank lines
    They were jumping from towers
    They were calling like seagulls
    But nobody heard
    Such a beautiful message
    From such a common bird

    --Wendy McNeill, "Common Bird"

    "To the sound of a heartbeat pounding away
    To the rhythm of the awful rusted machines
    We toss and turn but don't sleep
    Each breath we take makes us thieves
    Like causes without rebels
    Just talk but promise nothing else"

    - Rise Against
    "Re-Education (Through Labor)"

    Well I woke up this morning
    And I made a resolution
    I said:
    Never
    Going
    To sing
    Another
    Sad song
    Again

    This is ten percent luck, twenty percent skill
    Fifteen percent concentrated power of will
    Five percent pleasure, fifty percent pain
    And a hundred percent reason to remember the name

    "While preachers preach of evil fates
    Teachers teach that knowledge waits
    Can lead to hundred-dollar plates
    Goodness hides behind its gates
    But even the President of the United States
    Sometimes must have to stand naked"

    It's Alright Ma - Bob Dylan

    Fear, Fear, she's the mother of Violence
    Don't make any sense to watch the way she breed
    Fear, she's the mother of Violence
    Making me tense to watch the way she feed
    Only way you know she's there
    Is a subtle flavour in the air
    Getting hard to breathe
    Hard to believe in anything at all
    But Fear

    Mother of Violence - Peter Gabriel

    "Did you exchange a walk on part in the war for a lead role in a cage?"

    "How I wish, how I wish you were here.
    We're just two lost souls swimming in a fish bowl, year after year,
    Running over the same old ground.
    What have we found?
    The same old fears.
    Wish you were here."


    "Wish You Were Here" - Pink Floyd

    One more drink leads to another
    You slide up close to me
    Tear the t-shirts off each other
    Your hands all over me
    I tell myself I'm not in love
    But one more time is not enough
    One last kiss and then you're a goner
    And I'm here wishing you could stay a little longer

    Ocean's apart day after day
    And I slowly go insane
    Wherever you go
    Whatever you do
    I will be right here waiting for you

    Hanging by threads of palest silver
    I could have stayed that way forever
    Bad blood and ghosts wrapped tight around me
    Nothing could ever seem to touch me
    I lose what I love most
    Did you know I was lost until you found me?
    Stroke of luck or gift from god?
    Hand of fate or devil's claws?
    From below or saints above
    You came to me
    Here comes the cold again
    I feel it closing in
    It's falling down and
    All around me
    Falling

    'Stroke of Luck' - Garbage
