hotel rooms and cocaine

"pete is my favorite cracked out bloke"

You say you want a revolution, well you know we all want to change the world

What if you were told that every moment you experienced and every memory you held dear never happened?

no one knows what happens next

Where do you go when the enemy is everywhere?

This is easier than lying

The less you know about me, the less you'd hate me in the end

think before you decide to do something stupid

if a man can't lie, how can he speak?

don't listen to the people in your head

what has 'playing it cool' ever gotten me

take the money and run

I need another lover like i need a hole in my head

booze

Don't you ever feel like you've been destined for something bigger than your skin?

we are all animals

Everybodys got a plan til' they get punched in the face

Tell me your name

Don't wake me i plan on sleeping in

you thought different didn't you

You'd be the girl i cared for the most, but i would never waste my time calling

darling you're not thinking straight

You blocked me out and turned away, hiding yourself from me. But I found you again. You weren’t hiding. You were protecting me from you. I don’t need to be protected

vitamin water

If you find yourself inside yourself, scratching at the edges and clawing at the walls, breathe more. Think less. Your shadow is only a shadow. And stay away from mirrors. They will only confuse you

hold on tight

You’re all tangled up in other people. Their worries have become your worries. Their expectations of you have become the expectations you have for yourself. Their dreams are slowly turning into your nightmares. You are not other people

same as it never was

She took that cigarette and put it out on your chest, don't you remember? Threw you to the curb and you still loved her. You know your perfect body was all she could talk about in conversations she had with friends, but you were convinced she was somebody different

four day hangover

note to self: don't drink tonight

what happened last night

stop borrowing money, you're not even broke yet you jackass

i've lived a thousand years and its never bothered me

Got no religion, don't need no friends, got all I want and i don't need to pretend. Don't try to reach me, 'cause I'd tear up your mind. I've seen the future and i've left it behind

Haunted

I still see you around some days

all for one, and one for all

Sleep all day, breakfast all night. im a kind of girl who parties in the early morning and passes out in the late afternoon. Everyone says im backwards, i dont know what they're talking about

i always ask myself this

I'm sure i'm going to look in the mirror and see nothing. People are always calling me a mirror and if a mirror looks into a mirror, what is there to see

fuck the world, drink all the booze you'd like

money is money. it doesn't matter if i've worked hard or easy for it. i spend it the same

maybe, maybe, we're made for each other

I need another lover like i need a hole in my head

i can tell she's the girl of my dreams

Without me, you wouldn't be who you are today. Without you, i would've been better

couldn't you find some young valentine to steal your heart for good

hey there big spender, gotta take it easy, you're starting to spend more than just money

i'm too abstract to be romantic

I asked if you’d seen any good horror movies lately. You said “There aren’t any good horror movies anymore. In the 90’s we were scared of the end of the world, so we made movies about that. In the 80’s it was serial killers and psychopaths. Today, we just turn on the news"

It would be nice to have good horror movies again

like this is new to you

Come on in, my weary friend the welcome here is endless. These fears of yours like painted whores they will not stay the night. If all your life, you’ve done what’s right, don’t say you felt obliged. Come along use your timid tongue, too shy to tell your story. This pain in you so far removed from anything you’ve known. So I won’t condone another moan, not when everything is fine. So in a drought learn to dance. And pray the dead will return. And dream of smoke without fire. Just come see me again when it burns. Somewhere here along the way, well I was lead astray by a wolf in no ones clothing it was a brilliant disguise. And I forgot that life existed I thought it was just some kind of game. That’s what brings me to your doorstep, though I don’t know why I came today

G'day

You can’t find yourself inside yourself

Step outside. I’ll meet you there

i slept all day and i'm only dreaming

what if i was smiling and running into your arms? would you see then what i see now

everyone else is to blame

i keep thinking of the love that we could share . So whats a girl like me supposed to do without a girl like you?

you're such a mystery

you can't call them memories when you can hardly remember them

Please come back

You asked me if I was comfortable. If I needed or wanted anything else. I told you the mountains, the sea and the sky would be nice

You went to fetch them. I also need beer now

It'd be nice if you could stay a while

All these desperate people banging at my door, wanting in. I can barely even deal with what I have inside these walls, if I invite you we’ll burn down the house by accident and run out of cigarettes -aimee gratton

To tell you the truth, neither do i

Just between you and me, no one really knows what's going on

can anybody find me

You are more than the people and things you know. You are more than your memories. You are something beyond all this. But only you know what that is

oh whiskey and wine you've messed up my mind, whiskey and wine you've got me this time

how do you know whats real and whats not when the whole worlds inside your head

today is the day i tell the truth

"Passed out on the breakfast table. Been asleep the whole day. Still don't know where my wife is. Shoes dirty. Haven't been anywhere. Woke up in the garden in my bathrobe the next morning. Covered in muck and filth. I turned to see my wife's hand sticking out the ground. Gone to find help"

Sometimes it matters, and sometimes it doesn't

He thinks he's so clever. He's not. Every story has an end, mister. You think you're writing mine. But I'm writing yours

the good, the bad and the ugly

I had a dream about you last night. Then I woke up and phoned you to tell you how I felt. Then I woke up again and realised it was just a dream within a dream.

I should have kept sleeping

love, hate, and then there's you

You need to tell the person in your head telling you what you are and are not capable of to shut the hell up

If I ask you for your secrets, you'll never tell

I could whisper every rude word I know in your ear, but it wouldn't change anything

do you remember me

Someone you haven't even met yet is wondering what it'd be like to know someone like you

i wont let go of your hand

I'll tell you the truth so close to your lips it'll taste like a lie. There's a tongue in my mouth. It matters. This fucking matters. The only thing that works is the truth and you are the hardest truth to tell. So kiss like you give a damn

The moment my skin brushed against yours

As soon as things start being the way they should be instead of the way they are, I’ll start telling them to you that way

the accents that no one could speak

They want me. I want you. And you want someone else. But none of us want to turn around

The cigarette smoke in your eyes, Watching a stripper and smacking a bloke here tonight

And she's kissing all the boys, She's to clever to be slack, But she's bound to go away for a day, In July, so she won't be coming back

a certain romance

I don't ever want to hate you, So don't show me your bed, The only roads are cul-de-sacs, The only ends are dead. Temptation greets you like your naughty mate, One that made you steal and set things on fire, But one you haven't seen of late. And I said that kind of talk, Only adds intrigue, To the cauldron of thought, It's already exceeding, Temptation, the very thing that held her back

man is least himself when he talks in his own person. Give him a mask, and he will tell you the truth

He stares at his reflection, It stares back, he squints his eyes until his face is blurred. He opens them as wide as he can, shakes his hair into his face. He takes off his shirt and flexes his arms, does all of the most ridiculous bodybuilder poses he can think of. He tries to make the muscles in his chest jump. He opens and closes his mouth a couple times, snaps his teeth at his reflection. He runs his tongue over his braces, turns his face from side to side, hes alright, he thinks

we fought mightily, the bush and i. i'm not sure who won; the bush is still standing and i have several deep cuts

He gave me that night back and this time, I told you the truth. We talked and held each other till the sun came up. And as I went to hell, the devil asked me if it was worth it. I said yes. Yes it was
