It's getting kind of hard to believe, things are going to get better

I've been drowning too long to believe that the tide's going to turn

I've been living too hard to believe things are going to get easier now

I'm still trying to shake off the pain from the lessons I've learned

Jason Segel - Dracula's Lament

You follow, find yourself at war,

watch waterfalls of pity roar

You feel to moan but unlike before

You discover that you'd just be

one more person crying.

Bob Dylan - It's alright Ma (I'm only bleeding)

The loneliness

and the scream to prove

to everyone

that I exist.

Frightened Rabbit  - The Loneliness and The Scream

We grew up at midnight.

We were only kids then.

The Maccabees - Grew up at Midnight

In these blue-black hours, time disappears.

It slips away completely or freezes in the headlights.

I can feel it slipping.

Orlando Weeks, from the book "The Gritterman"

I've got the money, I've got the place,

you've got the figure, you've got the face.

I've got the music, I've got the lights,

you've got the figure full of delights.

Let's get together, the two of us over a glass of champagne.
