And, in the end,
The love you take,
Is equal to the love you make.
- The Beatles "The End"

Stare at the dark foreboding walls
I turn and look away
The fear it haunts me
While I sleep
Now as life is torn apart
The walls they lead the way
This tortured journey
Almost at the end...
Look at time upon the skies
I turn and look away
The truth it haunts me
Wake me from sleep
Across the street they've nailed the curtains
They're getting ready for the feast
The Phantom of the Opera
In a perfect image of a priest
They're spoonfeeding Casanova
To get him to feel more assured
Then they'll kill him with self-confidence
After poisoning him with words
And the Phantom's shouting to skinny girls
"Get outta here if you don't know
Casanova is just being punished for going
To Desolation Row"
Ok I've saved my favorite group for last. The maniacs and crazy people. Yeah. The ones who live out where the buses don't run. And I distinguish between maniacs and crazy people. A maniac will beat nine people to death with a steel dildo. A crazy person will beat nine people to death with a steel dildo, but he'll be wearing a Bugs Bunny suit at the time. So you can't put them all away. You know you got to keep some of them around just for the entertainment. Like a guy who tells you the King of Sweden is using his penis as a radio transmitter to send anti-semitic lesbian meatloaf recipies to Soupy Sales and Marvin Hamlisch. A guy like that you want to give him his own radio show. No, the maniac farm will be reserved strictly for hopeless cases. Like a guy who gets a big tatoo on his chest of Liza Minnelli taking a shit, you know? And he tells you if he wiggles a certain way it looks like she's wiping her ass, you know? A guy like that, you want to get him into custody as quickly as possible. Now, for the maniac farm, I think there's no question we got to go with Utah. Utah. Easy to fence. Easy to fence. Right next to Wyoming and Colorado and Colorado is right next to Kansas, and that means all four groups of our most amusing citizens are now in one place.
As soon as I get my head round you
I come around catching sparks off you
I get an electric charge from you
That second hand living it just won't do
And the way I feel tonight
I could die and I wouldn't mind
And there's something going on inside
Makes you want to feel makes you want to try
Makes you want to blow the stars from the sky
I can't stand up I can't cool down
I can't get my head off the ground
When the Night has come, and the Land is Dark, and the Moon is the only Light we see, No I won't be afraid, No I won't be afraid, Just as long as you Stand, Stand by Me. - John Lennon - Stand By Me.
from the song lateralus by toolwith my feet upon the ground i lose myself
between the sounds and open wide to suck it in,
i feel it move across my skin.
i'm reaching up and reaching out,
i'm reaching for the random or what ever will bewilder me.
and following our will and wind we may just go where no one's been.
we'll ride the spiral to the end and may just go where no one's been.
spiral out. keep going...
Loneliness was tough
The toughest role you ever played
Hollywood created a superstar
And pain was the price you paid
Even when you died
Oh the press still hounded you
All the papers had to say
Was that Marilyn was found in the nude
Goodbye Normaa Jean
From the young man in the 22nd row
Who sees you as something as more than sexual
More than just our Marilyn Monroe
