Excerpts from the song "These Arms of Mine" by Otis Redding. |
 |
These arms of mine
They are lonely
Lonely and feeling blue
These arms of mine
They are yearning
Yearning from wanting you
And if you would let them hold you
Oh how grateful I would be
These arms of mine
They are burning
Burning from wanting you
These arms of mine
They are wanting
Wanting to hold you
And if you would let them hold you
Oh how grateful I would be |

Dear Josh,
We came by to fuck you but you were not home.
Therefore, you are gay.

From the song "Slipping" lyrics by Geddy Lee. |
 |
Meant to tell you
Tell you from the start
Meant to show you
What’s inside this shallow heart
But I could not find the words
Worthy enough to say
I slipped along the way
Tried to be there
Be there when you fall
Tried to make you feel big
When life makes you feel small
But I could not find the steps
Quickly enough to take
I slipped along the way
Want to change things
Want to clear the air
Fix the things around us
So badly in need of repair
But i might not have the sense
Sense enough to change
I slipped along the way

From the song "Fuck Her Gently" by Tenacious D, written by Jack Black & Kyle Gass |
 |
You don't always have to fuck her hard
In fact, sometimes that's not right to do
Sometimes you got to make some love
And fuckin' give her some smooches too
Sometimes you got to squeeze
Sometimes you got to say please
Sometimes you got to say hey
I'm gonna fuck you, softly
I'm gonna screw you gently
I’m gonna hump you sweetly
I'm gonna ball you discreetly
And then you say hey I brought you flowers
And then you say wait a minute Sally
I think I got something in my teeth
Could you get it out for me?
That's fuckin' teamwork
What's your favorite posish?
That's cool with me, it's not my favorite
But I'll do it for you
What's your favorite dish?
I'm not gonna cook it but I'll order it from Zanzibar
Then I'm gonna love you completely
Then I'll fuckin' fuck you discreetly
And then I'll fuckin' bone you completely
And then I'm gonna fuck you hard

From the song "When She Loved Me" by Randy Newman, as performed by Sarah McLachlan. |
 |
When somebody loved me
Everything was beautiful
Every hour we spent together
Lives within my heart
And when she was sad
I was there to dry her tears
And when she was happy
So was I
When she loved me
Through the summer and the fall
We had each other that was all
Just she and I together
Like it was meant to be
And when she was lonely
I was there to comfort her
And I knew that she loved me
So the years went by
I stayed the same
But she began to drift away
I was left alone
Still I waited for the day
When she’d say, “I will always love you”
Lonely and forgotten
I never thought she’d look my way
She smiled at me and held me
Just like she used to do
Like she loved me
When she loved me
When somebody loved me
Everything was beautiful
Every hour we spent together
Lives within my heart
When she loved me

From the song "Righteous Love" by Joan Osborne & Joseph Arthur. |
 |
I was a troubled soul
I had a worried mind
Drifting from place to place
I was the restless kind
Right there in front of me
Bright as the light of day
You saw a broken girl
You loved me anyway
And if I sprouted wings
I would not be amazed
Because faith is a mystery
That rocks me for days and days and days and...
I could be in the street
I could be on the train
Or stuck in some doorway
Down in the pouring rain
Now there is not one place
That doesn't feel like home
No matter where I go
I know I’m not alone
I’ve never been so sure of love
And if I sprouted wings
I would not be amazed
Because faith is a mystery
That rocks me for days and days and days
Oh you can ask me once
And I will tell you twice
No one’s convincing me
This isn’t paradise
And if I cause you pain
I’d only hurt myself
Because we have a righteous love
I feel for no one else
I’ve never been so sure of love |

From the movie "The Green Mile" written by Frank Darabont, based on the novel by Stephen King. |
 |
On the day of my judgement,
when I stand before God and He asks me
why did I kill one of His true miracles,
what am I going to say?
That it was my job? |

|
From the song "One Life" by Queensryche. |
 |
One life is like one prayer
One love to share
One thought is like one dream
One world, one meaning
A man who's lost everything
Holds his faith in his heart
Speaks to God of broken dreams
Doesn't wonder why when nothing's heard...
One prayer
A woman cries in frustration
Her man holds it inside
They forgot what got them here
The vows they promised to stand by...
One love
Heed the cries of the war child
Mothers hold them to their breast
Fathers fight with enemies
And fear breeds unto itself...
One world
One life is like one prayer
One love to share
One thought is like one dream
One world, one meaning
One life...
One love...
One world...
One. |

An excerpt from the song "The Outlaw Torn" by Metallica, lyrics by James Hetfield. |
 |
If I close my mind in fear
Please pry it open
If my face becomes sincere
Beware...
When I start to come undone
Stitch me together |
 |
 |
From the movie "Clerks" written by Kevin Smith.
As spoken by 'Silent Bob' |
 |
There's a million fine lookin' women in the world dude.
But they don't all bring you lasagna at work.
Most of them just cheat on you. |

From the poem "She" by David Lawrence. |
 |
In the blackness of my darkest day
I was blinded by the brilliance of her smile.
In the coldness of my lonely nights
I was melted by the fire in her eyes.
In the sleepy haze of my dreary days
I was awakened by her gentle touch.
When all things seemed old, useless and gray
She made the world feel new and exciting again.
When I stumbled and nearly fell into the abyss
Her infinite strength pulled me to safety.
When my faith was in doubt
She taught me to believe in love again. |

From the song "Footsteps of Humanity" by Erin Muslewhite. |
 |
You can walk around this place with your head in the clouds.
You can shout your angry words at us but it won't get you out.
Nothing's going to save this world from shallow hate.
Nothing's going to break these chains without the will to escape.
The storm that's in your eyes,
I see it growing in its size,
I can hear the hollow cries,
As they see through angry eyes.
Every fractured fear and every tortured word,
They dance around my sleepless nights, laughing at the world.
Every time I turn around and see the flames,
I throw myself onto the fire, and burn with my own shame.
Don't shake the tree,
We are the leaves.
Why can't you see?
I'm trying to look past all your misplaced rage.
I'm trying to find the real you, trying to find some faith.
Following in the footsteps of humanity
I guess I'll always blame you,
And you will always blame me. |

Excerpts from the song "Double Agent" by Rush, lyrics by Neil Peart. |
 |
On the edge of sleep,
I was drifting for half the night
Anxious and restless,
Pressed down by the darkness
Bound up and wound up so tight
So many decisions, a million revisions
Caught between darkness and light...
On the edge of sleep,
I heard voices behind the door
The known and the nameless,
Familiar and faceless
My angels and my demons at war
Which one will lose depends on what I choose
Or maybe which voice I ignore...
On the edge of sleep, I awoke to a sun so bright
Rested and fearless, cheered by your nearness
I knew which direction was right
The case had been tried by the jury inside
The choice between darkness and light... |

From the song "Bravado" by Rush, lyrics by Neil Peart. |
 |
If we burn our wings
Flying too close to the sun
If the moment of glory
Is over before it's begun
If the dream is won
Though everything is lost
We will pay the price
But we will not count the cost
When the dust has cleared
And victory denied
A summit too lofty
A river a little too wide
If we keep our pride
Though paradise is lost
We will pay the price
But we will not count the cost
And if the music stops
There's only the sound of the rain.
All the hope and glory
All the sacrifice in vain.
And if love remains
Though everything is lost
We will pay the price
But we will not count the cost |

Excerpts from the song "The Pass" by Rush, lyrics by Neil Peart. |
 |
Proud swagger out of the schoolyard
Waiting for the world's applause
Rebel without a conscience
Martyr without a cause
Static on your frequency
Electrical storm in your veins
Raging at unreachable glory
Straining at invisible chains
And now you're trembling on a rocky ledge
Staring down into a heartless sea
Can't face life on a razor's edge
Nothing's what you thought it would be
All of us get lost in the darkness
All of us do time in the gutter
Turn around and walk the razor's edge
Don't turn your back and slam the door on me
It's not as if this barricade
Blocks the only road
It's not as if you're all alone
In wanting to explode
Someone set a bad example
Made surrender seem all right
The act of a noble warrior
Who lost the will to fight
And now you're trembling on a rocky ledge
Staring down into a heartless sea
Done with life on a razor's edge
Nothing's what you thought it would be
No hero in your tragedy
No daring in your escape
No salutes for your surrender
Nothing noble in your fate
Christ, what have you done? |

An excerpt from the song "Mission" by Rush, lyrics by Neil Peart. |
 |
We each pay a fabulous price
For our visions of paradise |

|
Excerpts from the song "Witch Hunt" by Rush, lyrics by Neil Peart. |
 |
The night is black
Without a moon
The air is thick and still
The vigilantes gather on
The lonely torch lit hill
Features distorted in the flickering light
The faces are twisted and grotesque
Silent and stern in the sweltering night
The mob moves like demons possessed
Quiet in conscience, calm in their right
Confident their ways are best
The righteous rise
With burning eyes
Of hatred and ill-will
Madmen fed on fear and lies
To beat, and burn, and kill
Quick to judge
Quick to anger
Slow to understand
Ignorance and prejudice
And fear walk hand in hand |
 |
 |
|
An excerpt from the song "Natural Science" by Rush, lyrics by Neil Peart. |
 |
The most endangered species -
The honest man
Will still survive annihilation |
 |
 |
|
Excerpts from the song "Rocket Queen" by Guns N Roses. |
 |
I see you standing on your own
It's such a lonely place for you to be
If you need shoulder
Or if you need a friend
I'll be here standing
Until the bitter end
No one needs the sorrow
No one needs the pain
I hate to see you
Walking out there in the rain
So don't chastise me
Or think I mean you harm
All those that take you
Leave you strung out
Much too far
Don't ever leave me
Say you'll always be there
All I ever wanted
Was for you
To know that I care |
