I will commit suicide at the very peak of our desperate love
So it will never get the chance to weaken or fade
And you will do the same
Only to immortalize our unified hearts
And so that every moment
Will remain fresh in both our minds

It's hard to be alone, deep in the night
I try to avoid the dark life and be seeking the light
But so many times I fall in between the lines
Of what is a devilish sign and what is divine
If you base your life on wasted nights with no faith in sight, you might as well freebase on pipes

Because it's my story from 10 years ago. And yes I can honestly appreciate, this ego-centric stuff on this scale : D

"You often wonder,
You wanna know.
How deep does
The rabbit hole go?
I know you never thought about it
But ask yourself later:
When you turn on your stereo
Does it return the favor?
I gotta know!
That's the trouble with never,
Sure seems like a mighty long time.
That's the trouble with never.
When was the last time
You did something for the first time?
Hello!
Every Einstein's assigned
A tweedle dumb and tweedle dumber.
Any old fool could see,
Never even wonder.
Yeah we could come together.
I will call for you.
Hey, never's good for me.
How's never sound to you?
1-800-tell-me-babe!
That's the trouble with never,
(It) sure may be a mighty long time.
That's the trouble with never.
When was the last time
You did something for the first time?
Yeah!
Level with me baby!
Talk to…"

why?

'cause "When you turn on your stereo
Does it return the favor?"

Syd Barrett the king here

Scream thy last scream old woman with a casket
Blam blam your pointers point your pointers
Waddle with apples to crunchy Mrs. Stores
She'll be scrubbing bubbles on all fours
Scream thy last scream old woman with a casket

Fling your arms madly old lady with a daughter
Flat tops of houses, mouses, houses
Fittle and tittle and zittin' quack quack
Watching the telly till all hours, telly time!
Fling your arms madly, old lady with a daughter

when he sings "watching the telly till all hours, telly time!" i laugh every time

You were just a waste of sperm
They way you look
Makes my stomach turn
The way you think
Is no way at all

God you really think you have balls

I hate you
Ain't it true
I hate you
And everything you do

You walk around like a fucking dick
And everytime you're near
You know I get real sick

You're so stupid
There's nothing in your head
God how I wish that you were dead

Slayer- I hate you

I’m a good guy and good guys lie and never seem to rise rapidly
Wanna see some manifestation in my reality
Based on my morality and individuality, I should be swimming in dollars with Warren Buffet salaries...

- QuESt “In Due Time”
 
I really love Pink Floyd's High Hopes - for so many reasons. For me, it captures a certain feeling of optimism and joy in simply being alive, recalling a time when the magnificence and intensity of simply existing were enough, when curiosity simmered furiously and everything was vibrant and interesting. (Along with the regret for that something that is often lost as we transform into "responsible" adults. )

Beyond the horizon of the place we lived when we were young
In a world of magnets and miracles
Our thoughts strayed constantly and without boundary
The ringing of the division bell had begun

Along the Long Road and on down the Causeway
Do they still meet there by the Cut

There was a ragged band that followed in our footsteps
Running before time took our dreams away
Leaving the myriad small creatures trying to tie us to the ground
To a life consumed by slow decay

The grass was greener
The light was brighter
With friends surrounded
The nights of wonder

Looking beyond the embers of bridges glowing behind us
To a glimpse of how green it was on the other side
Steps taken forwards but sleepwalking back again
Dragged by the force of some inner tide

At a higher altitude with flag unfurled
We reached the dizzy heights of that dreamed of world

Encumbered forever by desire and ambition
There's a hunger still unsatisfied
Our weary eyes still stray to the horizon
Though down this road we've been so many times

The grass was greener
The light was brighter
The taste was sweeter
The nights of wonder
With friends surrounded
The dawn mist glowing
The water flowing
The endless river

Forever and ever

Also, George Michael's Fast Love, well because. :messenger_winking:

(Gotta get up to get down)
(Gotta get up to get down)
(Ooh ooh, baby baby)

Looking for some education
Made my way into the night
All that bullshit conversation
Well baby can't you read the signs?

I won't bore you with the details baby
I don't even wanna waste your time
Let's just say that maybe
You could help to ease my mind
Baby, I ain't Mr. Right

But if you're looking for fastlove
If that's love in your eyes
It's more than enough
Had some bad love
Some fastlove is all that I've got on my mind

(Ooh ooh, baby baby)
Ooh, yeah yeah
(Ooh ooh, baby baby)
What's there to think about baby?
(Ooh ooh, baby baby)
Hey baby, oh yeah
(Ooh ooh, baby baby)

Looking for some affirmation
Made my way into the sun
My friends got their ladies
And they're all having babies
But I just wanna have some fun

I won't bore you with the details baby
Gotta get there in your own sweet time
Let's just say that maybe
You could help to ease my mind
Baby, I ain't Mr. Right

But if you're looking for fastlove
If that's love in your eyes
It's more than enough
Had some bad love
Some fastlove is all that I've got on my mind
Get yourself some lessons in love

So close
I can taste it now baby
So close

In the absence of security
Made my way into the night
Stupid cupid keeps on calling me
But I see nothing in his eyes
I miss my baby, oh yeah
I miss my baby, tonight
So why don't we make a little room
In my BMW babe
Searchin' for some peace of mind
Hey, I'll help you find it
I do believe that we are practicing the same religion

Oh you really oughta get up now
That's right
Oh you really oughta get up
(Ooh ooh, baby baby)
Oh yeah
Looking for some affirmation

There are many song lyrics that are moving though. Those were the first two that popped into my head, but High Hopes is always somewhere in the back of my mind, even when not listening to it.
 
One of my favorites:

Hold out for June, it brings new season
Vision is clear, your mind revealing
Pressing the flower in the page
Forever kept, a memory made
Now you're so sure, you're always leading
All the same words now bring new meaning
I can hear you and I know you're singing:
"I'm here, you know I'll always remind you"

June by Tigers Jaw.
 
Cause I was a basic basic bitch in college but it still makes me laugh. Everywhere I Go by Hollywood Undead:

When I start drinking
My dick does all my thinking
Hoes want to be seen with me
And I like their big, thick titties

D cups with extra filling
Take it out, let me lick it quickly
Calm down, it's just a hickey
I'll blame it on this whiskey, sipping gets me tipsy

Drink fast and enjoy your buzz
Take back streets to avoid the fuzz
I wanna take you home, but your friends won't let ya'
I got a 40 in my Ford Fiesta

Buy beer or pay the rent?
My signing bonus was quickly spent
So I'll beat my meat like I'm a fucking butcher
And I'll punk the pussy like I'm Ashton Kutcher!

I'm rich, bitch!
Okay kay kay kay (ready), G's up, Lil' Scrappy
I got money
BME (BME), money in the bank, G-Unit!
I got money in the bank (yea)
Shawty what you drank?
I got money in the bank (yea)
Shawty what you drank?
I got money in the bank (yea)
Shawty what you drank?
I got money in the bank (yea)
Shawty what you drank (crank it, ay)
 
This is the end, beautiful friend
This is the end, my only friend
The end of our elaborate plans
The end of ev'rything that stands
The end
No safety or surprise
The end
I'll never look into your eyes again

Can you picture what will be
So limitless and free
Desperately in need of
some strangers hand
In a desperate land

Lost in a Roman wilderness of pain
And all the children are insane
All the children are insane
Waiting for the summer rain
There's danger on the edge of town
Ride the king's highway
Weird scenes inside the goldmine
Ride the highway West baby

Ride the snake
Ride the snake
To the lake
To the lake

The ancient lake baby
The snake is long
Seven miles
Ride the snake
He's old
And his skin is cold

The west is the best
The west is the best
Get here and we'll do the rest

The blue bus is calling us
The blue bus is calling us
Driver, where you taking us?

The killer awoke before dawn
He put his boots on
He took a face from the ancient gallery
And he walked on down the hall

He went into the room where his sister lived
And then he paid a visit to his brother
And then he walked on down the hall

And he came to a door

And he looked inside

Father?

Yes son

I want to kill you

Mother, I want to...

(FUCK YOU ALL NIGHT!!!)

Come on, baby, take a chance with us
Come on, baby, take a chance with us
Come on, baby, take a chance with us
And meet me at the back of the blue bus

This is the end, beautiful friend
This is the end, my only friend
The end

It hurts to set you free
But you'll never follow me
 
It starts with
One thing, I don't know why
It doesn't even matter how hard you try
Keep that in mind
I designed this rhyme to explain in due time

All I know
Time is a valuable thing
Watch it fly by as the pendulum swings
Watch it count down to the end of the day
The clock ticks life away

It's so unreal
Didn't look out below
Watch the time go right out the window
Trying to hold on, but didn't even know
I wasted it all just to watch you go

I kept everything inside
And even though I tried, it all fell apart
What it meant to me will eventually be a memory of a time when I tried so hard and got so far
But in the end, it doesn't even matter
I had to fall to lose it all
But in the end, it doesn't even matter

One thing, I don't know why
It doesn't even matter how hard you try
Keep that in mind
I designed this rhyme to remind myself how I tried so hard

In spite of the way you were mocking me
Acting like I was part of your property
Remembering all the times you fought with me
I'm surprised it got so far

Things aren't the way they were before
You wouldn't even recognize me anymore
Not that you knew me back then
But it all comes back to me in the end

You kept everything inside
And even though I tried, it all fell apart
What it meant to me will eventually be a memory of a time when

I tried so hard and got so far
But in the end, it doesn't even matter
I had to fall to lose it all
But in the end, it doesn't even matter

I've put my trust in you
Pushed as far as I can go
For all this, there's only one thing you should know

I've put my trust in you
Pushed as far as I can go
For all this, there's only one thing you should know

I tried so hard and got so far
But in the end, it doesn't even matter
I had to fall to lose it all
But in the end, it doesn't even matter

Ay, yi, yi
I want to drive a sports car
And be a pinball star
And have a waterfall bar
That revolves around my swimming pool

I want to take touch therapy
I want to wipe out VD
And set the animals free
But most of all I want to soar, I just want to soar away

I wanna live San Fernando style
Make a massage parlor once in a while
And watch police helicopters checkin’ my style over camp de encino
- Harry Nilsson “Campo de Encino”


Harry Nilsson was a funny guy
