"Treated like prisoners
Trapped in a world filled with nothing but despair
A game where it's kill or be killed
We were lured into the devil's lair
Losing faith with whom to trust
We were being taken out one by one
Never-ending mistery
Were we ever going to see the sun?"
"Oh don't you wonder when the light begins to fade?
And the clock just makes the colors turn to grey
Forever younger growing older just the same
All the memories that we make will never change
We'll stay drunk, we'll stay tan, let the love remain
And I swear that I'll always paint you"
"you know i've always been resenting, resenting every word you've ever said"
"I grieve in stereo
The stereo sounds strange
I know that if you hide
It doesn't go away
If you get out of bed
And find me standing all alone
Open-eyed
Burn the page
My little dark age"
"I hurt myself today
To see if I still feel
I focus on the pain
The only thing that's real"
"I'm trying my best while I'm howling and barking these songs"
Saint Bernard by Lincoln
"if home is where the heart is then we're all just..fucked"
"But who I am is in these episodes
So don't you tell me that it's just a show"
"You dumb bitch, I loved you, I loved you
I loved you, it's true
I wanted to be you and do what you do
I lived here, I loved here
I bought it, it's true
I'm so embarrassed, I feel abused"
“He was the old manager of the sidewalk café
That place was a second home to me, it's where I learned to play
And his personality really helped create a space
Where a bunch of honest misfits could all gather and feel safe
He was a cynic, a supporter, he was crazy, he was queer
He'd either yell out ‘cut the bullshit’ or, he'd say ‘I'm glad you're here’
And it was always such an honor to have Ammi on my side
That's why it hit me like a Mack truck when I found out that he died”
"And I've got this lingering feeling
It's like I've slipped between
Finger of the century
I know you know what I mean
I'll be a good time gambler
I'll be a restless wife
I'll be a midnight writer
Out in the quarter on a Friday night
Call me good time gambler
Call me a restless wife
Call me a midnight writer
Out in the quarter on a Friday night
Out in the brightness of a Friday night
Call me the brightness of a Friday night"
~Of A Friday Night, Anaïs Mitchell

"You dumb bitch, I loved you, I loved you
All I can hear while reading this is that one vine, "I love you bitch. I ain't never gon stop loving you, bitch."
"Illness and Welfare robbed my adolescence."
"Baby, we built this house
On memories
Take my picture now
Shake it til' you see it
And when your fantasies
Become your legacy
Promise me a place
In your house of memories"
"I'm unstoppable
I'm a Porsche with no brakes
I'm invincible
Yeah, I win every single game
I'm so powerful
I don't need batteries to play
I'm so confident
Yeah, I'm unstoppable today
Unstoppable today
Unstoppable today
Unstoppable today
I'm unstoppable today"
"I know
That there's something residing
A terror deep inside me"
"Familiar, why is this so familiar?
Familiar, like something I used to know
Familiar, staring up at the ceiling
Familiar, I swear that I know this feeling"
"I realized, I'm doing fine
I just start thinking crazy when you're on my mind
You'll be okay and I'll be alright
But I've gotta say it.."
