Collected ephemera and words that are beloved to me.
Lyrics
Today seems like a good day to burn a bridge or two
– 311 (Beautiful Disaster)
I love the time and in between
The calm inside me
In the space where I can breathe
I believe there is a distance I have wandered
To touch upon the years of
Reaching out and reaching in
Holding out, holding in
– Sarah McLachlan (Elsewhere)
How can I believe when this cloud hangs over me
You're the part of me that I don't wanna see
– Breaking Benjamin (Forget It)
Now there's a feeling I get
When I look to the left
– 30 Seconds to Mars (End of the Beginning)
Your promises, they look like lies
– 30 Seconds to Mars (Attack)
Step out the front door like a ghost into the fog
Where no one notices the contrast of white on white
And in between the moon and you
The angels get a better view
Of the crumbling difference between wrong and right
– Counting Crows (Round Here)
Y aprendí a quitarle al tiempo los segundos
Tú me hiciste ver el cielo aún más profundo
Junto a ti creo que aumenté más de tres kilos
Con tus tantos dulces besos repartidos
– Shakira (Antología)
The only thing you'll ever be
Is just a way for me to bleed
On this stage
– Cold (Confession)
And my words will be here when I'm gone
As I'm fading away against the wind
– Seether (Sympathetic)
I hope you're not intending
To be so condescending
It's as much as I can take
And you're so independent
You just refuse to bend
So I keep bending till I break
– Staind (Right Here)
You're such an inspiration for the ways
That I will never, ever choose to be
– A Perfect Circle (Judith)
One more medicated peaceful moment
Give me one more medicated peaceful moment
– A Perfect Circle (Orestes)
When did it end? All the enjoyment
I'm sad again, don't tell my boyfriend
It's not what he's made for
What was I made for?
– Billie Eilish (What Was I Made For)
The only comfort is the moving of the river
You enter into me a lie upon your lips
Offer what you can, I'll take all that I can get
Only a fool is here
– Sarah McLachlan (Ice)
Come to me now
And lay your hands over me
Even if it's a lie
Say it will be alright
And I shall believe
– Sheryl Crow (I Shall Believe)
But like your daddy said
The same sun that melts the wax can harden clay
And the same rain that drowns the rat will grow the hay
And the mighty wind that knocks us down
If we lean into it
Will drive our fears away
– Amy Grant (How Can We See That Far)
I'm so tired of being here
Suppressed by all my childish fears
And if you have to leave
I wish that you would just leave
'Cause your presence still lingers here
And it won't leave me alone
– Evanescence (My Immortal)
I didn't think you'd understand me
How could you ever even try?
I don't wanna tiptoe, but I don't wanna hide
But I don't wanna feed this monstrous fire
Just wanna let this story die
And I'll be alright
– Ariana Grande (We Can't be Friends)
