I pass by these walls, the walls of Layla
And I kiss this wall and that wall
It’s not Love of the walls that has enraptured my heart
But of the One who dwells within them
Layla and Majnun, Nizami Ganjavi
If only I’d thought of the right words
I could have held on to your heart
The Cure, Pictures of You
Though nothing, will keep us together
We could steal time
Just for one day
You're far too precious to me
I only want what's best for you
That might not include me
Well I know it's true
But I'm here for you
Lucero, “Darby's Song”
Any fool can be happy. It takes a man with real heart to make beauty out of the stuff that makes us weep
Now some of us are weak and some endure Some people live their life, with a violence that's pure and clean But I saw a man cry once, down on his knees In the corner of a darkened cell, and his pain meant nothing to me
But I was younger then young men never die When I walked out in the sun, I was strong, clear-minded and blind
Now don't say a prayer for anyone, it doesn't do any good Please don't ask me questions, it'd just be misunderstood And if you could step inside me you'd feel what hatred brings And if you saw with my eyes, you'd see what self-deception means
I was younger once, and I created a lie And though my body was strong, I was self-diluted, confident, and blind
Now show some pity, for the weak of will Because when we're drinking, we can never be filled Show some understanding for a lonely fool Because when I'm drinking, I am out of control Well I was never young, nothing has transpired And when I look in the mirror, I feel dead, I feel cold, I am blind
I am blind

I'm not sentimental- I'm as romantic as you are. The idea, you know, is that the sentimental person thinks things will last- the romantic person has a desperate confidence that they won't.
Last night I was free Outside in the field Where we both fell in love Then I knew it was real You put me outside I was singing a song You looked to the window, But I was already gone!
The wind? Looking like tons And the skin like the heaven's Clouds in our lungs I saw my reflection, And I talked to the glass I think about you - I think of the past!
If you wanna be free, don't think about me Don't you look in my eyes, Don't you hang around me No more, oh
The thing that you want is what's killing me Don't you dare take my hand If you won't be free, oh no! Your face like a painting in your history mind But you barely survived, And you're barely alive Those rules of lost days that we buried in time, Can't lead the pain I felt it inside
When you carried my child I planted my seed, I know it was wrong, but you know what I need You saw in my eyes when you were looking at me Keep dug at my door Your love sets me free Ooh!
If you wanna be free, don't think about me Don't you look in my eyes, Don't you hang around me No more, oh And the thing that you want is the thing that's killing me Don't you dare take my hand If you won't be free, oh no no!

I was dreaming of the past And my heart was beating fast I began to lose control I began to lose control I didn't mean to hurt you I'm sorry that I made you cry Oh my I didn't want to hurt you I'm just a jealous guy
I was feeling insecure You might not love me anymore I was shivering inside I was shivering inside Oh I didn't mean to hurt you I'm sorry that I made you cry Oh my I didn't want to hurt you I'm just a jealous guy
I didn't mean to hurt you I'm sorry that I made you cry Oh my I didn't want to hurt you I'm just a jealous guy
I was trying to catch your eyes I thought that you were trying to hide I was swallowing my pain I was swallowing my pain I didn't mean to hurt you I'm sorry that I made you cry Oh my I didn't want to hurt you I'm just a jealous guy Watch out baby I'm just a jealous guy Look out baby I'm just a jealous guy

Lay off me, would you? I'm just trying to take this new skin for a spin Pray for me, would you? I'm just nervous 'bout my family filing in Ready to wrap me up Ready to love me in this new skin I'm filling in
Who's that trying to speak for me? What is it that they claim to be? A child of God much like yourself You will find me right where I fell
I am a tired woman In January, I will just be 23 In Kansas City, I was undressed And bested by an airtight floor That said, "By the power in me vested" And wrapped me in this new skin I'm dyin' for
But who's that trying to speak for me? What kind of love do they claim to be? A child of God much like yourself You'll still find me right where I fell
Who's that trying to speak for me? What kind of love do they claim to be? A child of God much like yourself You'll still find me right where I fell
The darkness fear what darkness knows But if you never know the darkness Then you're the one who fears the most
The darkness fears what darkness knows But if you never know the darkness Then you're the one who fears the most
The darkness fears what darkness knows But if you never know the darkness Then you're the one who fears the most
But f you do not know the darkness Then you're the one who fears the most But if you do not know the darkness Then you're the one I fear the most
