  • Standing in the shower thinking
    About what makes a man
    An outlaw or a leader
    I'm thinking about power...
    The ways a man could use it
    Or be destroyed by it
    The water hits my neck
    And I'm pissing on myself...

  • If you look in my heart you'd see it
    I'm trying to be something better
    If you look in my heart you'd feel it
    I've got to keep moving on
    If you look in my heart you'd know it
    I'm just trying to make my world better
    If you look in my heart you'd see it
    I got to do it alone

  • The free soul is rare, but you know it when you see it – basically because you feel good, very good when you are near or with them. – Charles Bukowski

    レンフレッド:「ならば自分のために他人が苦しんでもいいというのか?」
    カルタフィルス:「そうだよ?そういうものでしょ?生き物ってさ」

    Renfred: "So you're fine with hurting others to benefit yourself?"
    Cartaphilus: "Uh, yes? That's how it works? Living."

    Chise: "You may have suffered more than me... more than anyone I've ever met. But hurting doesn't give you the right to make others hurt, too! It doesn't mean anything you do is okay!"

  • Goodnight dear angel, I won't be back here in burden.
    I don't think we'll ever meet again.
    She said that antiseptic words are just sorry answers, and I'd have to agree.
    No, I don't think we'll ever meet again.
    We give everything for nothing.
    Make me an offer I can't refuse.
    Give me a reason and I'll give you an excuse.
    I get lost in eyes like that.
    Thanks but no thanks. God never did me any favors.

  • "Always missing people that I shouldn't be missing
    Sometimes you gotta burn some bridges just to create some distance
    I know that I control my thoughts and I should stop reminiscing
    But I learned from my dad that it's good to have feelings.."

    "Broken legs but I chase perfection
    These walls are my blank expression
    My mind is a home I'm trapped in
    And it's lonely inside this mansion"

    "I'm bigger than my body
    I'm colder than this home
    I'm meaner than my demons
    I'm bigger than these bones"

    ... I tend to like a lot of dark songs.

  • Song:
    Elise believe I never wanted this
    I thought this time I'd keep all of my promises
    I thought you were the girl I always dreamed about
    But I let the dream go
    And the promises broke
    And the make-believe ran out

    Ain't no money in our home town
    And the mills have all shut down
    They say there's work, but it's always the next town
    Will you still love me when I'm gone?

    Chris Hillman: "Desert Rose"

  • Since you got me here
    I see you're trying to steal my soul
    Your army's trying so very hard
    To find for me a goal

    But where's your quiet pastures
    Where there's time for me to be
    Nothing else but what I am
    That's what you seem scared to see

    You cover up your emptiness
    With brick and noise and rush
    Oh, I can see and touch you
    But you don't owe reality much

    Have mercy I cry city, you're all upon my mind
    And sometimes I think you keep forgettin'
    That you don't know me

    "Mercy I Cry City", The Incredible String Band

    I always hit the tape with the rough road styles
    You heard the psychedelic and ya came from Miles
    Keep my rhymes thick like a Guinness brew
    So you could call me black and tan when I'm a wreckin' a crew
    I'm like Bill Lee writing when he's in Tangiers
    And now I'm on a soul safari with my Beatnik peers
    Analog reel and a little distortion
    Smokin' on suckers s'you could say I'm scorchin'
    I never been the type to brag but beware
    I'll make a man burn his draft card like it was Hair
    Send ya up the river like you lookin' for Kurtz
    I got the mugwump chrism up in every verse

    I’m never going to let you close to me
    Even though you mean the most to me
    'Cause every time I open up it hurts
    So I’m never going to get too close to you
    Even when I mean the most to you
    In case you go and leave me in the dirt

    From (Sam Smith - Too Good At Goodbyes). I have fancied looking into my cuddle buddy's eyes, holding their face in my hands, while listening to this song.

  • An ancient tale told of three princes from the island of Ceylon who set out on a pursuit of great treasures. They never found that for which they searched, but en route they were continually surprised by delights they had never anticipated. While looking for one thing, they found another.

    The original name of Ceylon was Serendip, which explains the title of this story—"The Three Princes of Serendip." From that, Walpole coined the wonderful word "serendipity." And from then on, his most significant and valued experiences were those that happened to him while he was least expecting them.

    Serendipity occurs when something beautiful breaks into the monotonous and the mundane. A serendipitous life is marked by "surprisability" and spontaneity. When we lose our capacity for either, we settle into life's ruts. We expect little and we're seldom disappointed.

    Be the beauty in someone's mundane today.

  • “As history confirms, people will change their minds about almost anything, from which god they worship to how they style their hair. But when it comes to existential judgments, human beings in general have an unfalteringly good opinion of themselves and their condition in this world and are steadfastly confident they are not a collection of self-conscious nothings.”

    — Thomas Ligotti, from The Conspiracy Against the Human Race.

  • At the moment when I die I look my killer in the eye and I smile, so he sees.
    He tried but he couldn’t take this from me.
    Let’s celebrate, sing songs to my killer. Raise a glass to the death of me.
    Let’s celebrate, drink drink to my murder.
    Dance all night with the enemy.
    Sing these songs to my killer.
    Won’t you help me celebrate?
    Drink drink to my murder.
    Dance with the one who lays me in the deep.

  • I am so low
    I am at a low
    I'm beneath the hopes and dreams
    Of everything I know
    I've seen the road to nowhere
    I've seen it in my brain
    What I want and what I am
    Will never be the same

  • “Every one interprets everything in terms of his own experience. If you say anything which does not touch a precisely similar spot in another man's brain, he either misunderstands you, or doesn't understand you at all.”

  • “we are such inward secret creatures, that inwardness the most amazing thing about us, even more amazing than our reason. but we cannot just walk into the cavern and look around. most of what we think we know about our minds is pseudo-knowledge. we are all such shocking poseurs, so good at inflating the importance of what we think we value.”
