Quote:

I'm a goner
Somebody catch my breath

I want to be known

~Twenty One Pilots - Goner (original version) 


Month Arc:

Fighting The Breakdown


I've given up; I'm sick of feeling, is there nothing you can say?
'Cause inside I realize that I'm the one confused
No! You'll never get it inside; you push it back down, you push it back down!
So don't apologize, I'm losing what I don't deserve
I don't know what's worth fighting for, or why I have to scream
Don't stay; forget our memories, forget our possibilities
I need a little room to breathe 'cause I'm one step closer to the edge and I'm about to break
Let it be enough to reach the truth that lies across this new divide
So keep in happiness, and torture me while I tell you, "Let's go in style"
We laughed at the sun, we laughed at the guns, we laughed at it all
Caught in this nightmare, dreams turn to thin air
Fear might be the death of me, fear leads to anxiety
'Cause somebody stole my car radio, and now I just sit in silence.
Can you save; can you save my heavydirtysoul?
Heard you say, "not today"; tore the curtains down, windows open now, make a sound
I'm a goner, somebody catch my breath
It's your battle to be fought; no, you don't know what you've got

until it's gone...


Don't let me be gone...

I'm out of my mind, I'm not seeing things right

Heard your voice, "There's no choice"
Tore the curtains down, windows open now, make a noise

You waste all this time trying to get to me
But you are out of my mind

My car radio
And now I just sit in silence

Endurance of the Broken


No, this is not the end...
And no one's told me otherwise...
I've grown so tired of stray thoughts that leave me blind...
All I want to do is learn how to dream, how to dream again...
Roll through the grass, run with the wind...
I've got a little confession, I don't know what I'm doing...
Sorry it's a cramped space, but it's my place...
It's been cold for years, won't you let it dry?
I bleed it out digging deeper just to throw it away...
It's like a whirlwind inside of my head...
I run, till it puts me underground...
I'm my own casualty!
Why I never walked away, why I played myself this way...
Hardly anything there for you to see...
I can't hold on (to anything watching everything spin)...
And I was by your side,
powerless!

Roll through the grass
Run with the wind
Wake up and greet yourself with a grin
Dry up the rain

Whoa...

I've got a little confession

I make it up as I go, oh oh oh
I make it up as I go, oh oh oh
Still haven't gotten it wrong

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.
