heyyyyyy.  wisdom teeth suck. especially the part where they ripped out of your head.  but percoset being what it is, and my inability to concentrate on my senior thesis, i present to you: some quotes. yayyyy, i know, you're excited.  some of them have credit to the authors and some don't because i got tired of googling.  :)  have a happy day.

i wanna tear apart your room to see if what you say is true. darling, don't you lie to me, lie to me. i wanna break into your heart to see why you want us apart. oh, i'm scared to death to find out what you think of me.
the spill canvas

you know you've got me in your hands. i'll break before i walk. tonight we broke our plans to play games with our hearts. for your blue skies, for those times you felt alive.  breathing softly and releasing, i won't let you go.
spitalfield

i'd really like to see you there. i can't pretend like i don't care. because i really do, yeah. please just kill the drama. go to sleep, we'll talk tomorrow. dream about me and don't worry. we'll be fine.
spitalfield

forgive me, but i can't be everything you deserve. and i know its too late to crawl back to you tonight. but there'sa  few things that i just need you to know, like the way i feel when we are close. and how the stars explode every time you're near.

alice came to a fork in the road.
"which road do i take?" she asked.
"where do you want to go?" responded the cheshire cat.
"i don't know," alice answered.
"then," said the cat, "it doesn't matter."
alice's adventures in wonderland, lewis carroll

a laundry list of problems doesn't make you interesting. and never getting help doesn't make you braev. not listening to reason doesn't mean you have faith. you're just cutting off your nose to spite your face.
straylight run

because you know i'm always writing you post cards just saying how good it feels not to have you here.

even after all these years, the sun never says to the earth "you owe me." look what happens with a love like that - it lights up the entire sky.

i can't expel the truth. it's much more than i thought i could do. and with time my worth will stain and split your heart from my name.

lately i'm alright and lately i'm not scared.

well i didn't mean for this to go as far as it did.

a beautiful mind

i find myself saying "I love you" in my head almost constantly when you're around.

you're what keeps me beleiving the world's not gone dead. strength in my bones, put the words in my head. when they pour out on paper it's all for you.  cause that's what you do.
say anything

when i watch you, wanna do you, right where you're standing.
you're lovely baby. i won't let them take you, hell no.

and where was i before the day i first saw your lovely face? now i see it every day and i know that i am the luckiest.
ben folds

i know that time moves faster when you're sleeping.
and i know it's not too good for me.
because when i wake up, i'm all alone.
it's just enough for me to fall in love with you.
and i wake up, time and time again, with nothing here for proof.

it's not fair, to find you there.
waiting on, i don't care.
i care way too much.

i know something is wrong, i just don't know what to do.  you say it's only me, and that i'm so perfect for you.  i don't want to try no more, i don't want to make this right. i just want you to be true to me one time.
the early november

i'll give this one more try, i'll give it all my best.  and i'll ask, 'what could you be doing that is so much fun without me by your side?' and i will take a step back, and i'll let you ahead, and i will take a step away and see if you come back. because there's no more trying to make this right. there's no more trying, there's no more trying tonight.

i'm only complaining to keep myself busy, sweetie.

we'll correct collegiate mistakes.
a shower of formal ideals completely soused the hearts on our sleeves.
as they drowned we oculd hear them screaming

then looking upwards i strain my eyes
and try to tell the difference between
shooting stars and satellites from the passenger seat
as you are driving me home.
"do they collide?" i ask and you smile.
with my feet on the dash, the world doesn't matter.

and you shed not a single tear for the things that you didn't need.
cause you knew you were finally free.

matchbook romance

lookie at me being all on top of things and updated this alllllll the time.  we'll blame it on my social life, eh?  there's a fine line between love and hate and i don't know where i stand. that's frustrating.

rely a bit too heavily on alcohol and irony
get clobbered on by courtesy,
in love with love and lousy poetry. 
and i'm leaning on a broken fence
between Past and Present tense
and i'm losing all these stupid games
i swore i'd never play
and it almost feels okay.
--- the weakerthans

how your body still remembers the things you told it to forget.
how those furious affections followed you.
i've got this store-bought way of saying i'm okay.
and you learned how to cry in total silence.
we're talented and bright, we're lonely and uptight.
we've found some lovely ways to disappoint.
--- the weakerthans

somewhere sympathy is more than just a way of leaving.
somewhere someone says i'm sorry.
someone's making plans to stay.
so tell me it's okay.
--- the weakerthans

i hope to god i mean a little more than the sounds that escape your tired four AM lips.  and oh how i wish i meant a little more than a symphony of heavy breathing and the friction of hips.

i would be lying if i said that things would never get rough.  and all this cliche motivation, it would never be enough.  i could stand here all night trying to convince you, but what good would that do?  my offer stands, and you must choose.

what did i expect?
you're no good and lying

but you're so untouchable.
and i'm oh-so-terrible at this.
--- matchbook romance

so take your cold, cold heart and drown.
and don't forget to take deep breaths.

my roommate is hogging the bathroom.  except she's kinda sick with vomitting so i think i'll just let her have her space.

i'm a pixie, i'm a paperdoll.
i'm a cartoon, i'm a chipper cheerful free-for-all.

i pray for nothing, i'm saving it all for one time.  i say, hold me now, be there when shit goes down, don't try to pick my head sometimes i don't make sense.  i'm no good at just believing in someone else.  would you think i were weak if i just break down?

can you roll down the window, can i have a cigarette?  can i sweep you for forgiveness, can i sweep you for regret?  and can you drive a little faster, to clear my head?  can you see that i've been crying?  can you tell that i've been alone?  these are the days that make up lifetimes.

i wonder where you are.
please don't come around tonight
cause i can't stand to see you

i hope the worst isn't over.
i hope you blink before i do.
and i hope i never get sober.

you'd stay the hell out of my way.
