A Growing Stand

Quote:

'Cause I'm bleeding out
So if the last thing that I do
Is to bring you down
I'll bleed out for you
So I bare my skin
And I count my sins
And I close my eyes
And I take it in
And I'm bleeding out
I'm bleeding out for you 
for you
~Imagine Dragons - Bleeding Out [Night Visions]

Month Arc:

Fighting Wrath


I cry sometimes when I'm lying in bed just to get it all out what's in my head...
Why waste a second when we're all running out of time...
More than a drop in the sea, because I hope you'll believe the pieces of me...
I'll accept and I'll deal with the work and the strife 'cuz I guess that's just my slice of life...
It's hopeless; I'm a part of you, don't fret when you see the fire in your eyes...
I have written you down, now you will live forever...
One face regret, the other pain, two eyes in my past stare with shame...
Hatred, bloodlust, they're all irrelevant to the moment when my jaws close down on you...
Make 'em laugh, make 'em laugh, don't ya know everyone wants to laugh...
When you're without me, it'll be easy to share, and if you need me, you can pretend I'm there...
Ashes to ashes, dust to dust, honor to glory, and iron to rust...
I'm here to take back control of my mind, because I'm running out of time...
I'm still looking for the truth, still hoping to find you...
We are all in this fight, though the night may be dark, a new day brings new light...
So I bare my skin and I count my sins and I close my eyes and I take it in...
But this is the moment, it's time you know it, I'm gonna make you my enemy...

Quote:

The tools of conquest do not necessarily come with bombs and explosions and fallout. There are weapons that are simply thoughts, attitudes, prejudices to be found only in the minds of men. For the record, prejudices can kill, and suspicion can destroy, and a thoughtless frightened search for a scapegoat has a fallout all of its own for the children, and the children yet unborn. And the pity of it is that these things cannot be confined to the Twilight Zone.
~Rod Serling [The Twilight Zone - The Monsters Are Due On Maple Street] (1960)

Quote:

Look me right in the eyes, I promise everything will be alright
We are all in this fight, though the night may be dark a new day brings new light
Remember all the times, all the times you felt so alive
When all the pain subsides, lets go back there, take me back there

Hold on, cuz' you don't know what is going to happen
Stay strong, your life's worth more than you know.

But now I'm on my way 
I feel the ice in my heart melt away 
I'm here to take back control of my mind 
Because I'm running out of time 
Snowblind
~Aviators - Snowblind [Building Better Worlds] 

I'm still looking for the truth
Still hoping to find you
Somehow I've got to find what's right
Scared I will run away
I'm losing hope today
I can't tell the shadows from the light

You have your other friends

Make 'em laugh
Make 'em laugh
Don't you know everyone wants to laugh?
(Ha ha!)
My dad said "Be an actor, my son
But be a comical one
They'll be standing in lines
For those old honky tonk monkeyshines"

Now you could study Shakespeare and be quite elite
And you can charm the critics and have nothin' to eat
Just slip on a banana peel
The world's at your feet
Make 'em laugh
Make 'em laugh
Make 'em laugh!

Quote:

Don't look, there's faces looking back
An enemy I can't attack
I'm held a hostage by these eyes
Familiar faces I deny
One face regret, the other pain
Two eyes in my past stare with shame
In my reflection I see fear
So I'm smashing through these mirrors
I won't let my past hold me on the ground
So let's break this maze of mirrors down, down, down
~Aviators ft. Prince Whateverer - Mirrors [Mirrors]

Quote:

I keep moving forward
When they try to rob me blind
Why waste a second when we're
All running out of time
I know, yes I know

I'll accept, and I'll deal with
The work and the strife
'cuz I guess that's
Just my slice of life

I, I could dare to stand tall
If it means I could fall
To conquer it all

More than a drop in the sea
Because I hope you'll believe

Are broken but there are beautiful things they could be

Quote:

I cry sometimes when I'm lying in bed
Just to get it all out, what's in my head
And I
I feel a little peculiar
So I wake up in the morning and I step outside
And I take a deep breath and I get real high
And I scream at the top of my lungs, "What's going on!?"
And I say
Hey yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Hey yeah yeah
I said hey
What's going on?
I say hey yeah yeah yeah yeah
Hey yeah yeah
I said hey
What's going on?
