Bring me oblivion

I want to smash it up

I want to break it down

I want a wall of tears

To wash away

Will her touch ever fade?

But I loved her with my last breathAnd I loved her with a love that was strong as deathAnd I loved her when she was unkind
And I loved her, I loved her, with a dangerous mind

At 46 still occasionally

Sometimes have my breakfast right off of a mirror

And sometimes I'll have it right out of a bottle

And just like that

The angles you don't plan forThe things you might have missedThose things exist

But under the waxing winter sunI feel like we're almost goneJust pick a lane and drive right throughHeaded off to freedom with you

Dreams of the futureUp in the front of my mindLeave a couple dozen bodies behind 

Pull your hair back tight
Head right for the extraction pointAnd if you don't hear from me
let them all go free

Walk me home

And walk away?

Back to the beautiful race

it's a maze for rats to try
it's a maze for rats to try
it's a race
a race for rats
a race for rats to die
it's a race
a race for rats
a race for rats to die

Change your situation

I understand the fascination
The dream that comes alive at night
But if you don't change your situation
Then you'll die, you'll die, don't die, don't die
Please don't die

Healing

How can you search for healing
At thе feet of the one who broke you?
I know that everything hurts
But I know that everything can heal

I feel so good without you
But I feel so lost without you
And I know that everything hurts
But I know that everything can heal

- Crows, Healing

Protect me from memory

 

Maybe we're victims of fate
Remember when we'd celebrate?
We'd drink and get high until late
And now we're all alone
Wedding bells ain't gonna chime
With both of us guilty of crime
And both of us sentenced to time
And now we're all alone
- Placebo, Protect Me From What I Want

Still breathing, for what it's worth

When I'm buried in the ground
I won't be able to make your birthday drinks but I will still feel guilty
You see, when the air warms up like this
It brings every single memory of you back and it makes me so sick, I can't breathe
Except I am still breathing, aren't I?
Sometimes I think that's the problem

- Self Esteem, I Do This All The Time

Always

If I get one love

only get one love

then I choose you

then I choose you
