1. And when I’m lying in my bed
    I think about life
    and I think about death
    and neither one particularly appeals to me
    and if the day came when I felt a natural emotion
    I’d get such a shock I’d probably lie 
    in the middle of the street and die
    I’d lie down and die

    [The Smiths.]

     

  2. That it will never come again, is what makes life so sweet.

    [Emily Dickinson.]

  4. Now it appears that you’re my fears
    And you’ve gone and done something stupid
    With my head
    You sewed our future
    And our intertwining paths are mutual
    Leading us straight to hell
    Don’t go wasting my time…

    [Asaf Avidan.]

     


  5. I have noticed that if you look carefully at people’s eyes the first five seconds they look at you, the truth of their feelings will shine through for just an instant before it flickers away..

    [Sue Monk Kidd.]

  6. Why have I gone blind?
    Live another life.
    You.

    Forgive me my love,
    I stand here all alone
    and I can see the bottom.

  7. One day we’ll all be ghosts
    Trippin’ around in someone else’s home
    One day we’ll all be ghosts, ghosts, ghosts


    [The Head and the Heart.] 

     

  8. Sometimes silence is just the best response.
