it's been so long since i could cry
so i sit alone and sigh
watching happy black-and-whiters
worship heroes, idols, fighters
while from the window turn away
for i've been living shades of grey

that's my little excerpt from my song...says how i feel
somewhere, over the rainbow way up high
there's a land that i heard of once in a lullaby
somewhere, over the rainbow, skies are blue
and the dreams that you dare to dream really do come true
someday i'll wish upon a star
and wake up where the clouds are far behind me
where troubles melt like lemon drops, away above the chimney tops that's where you'll find me...
somewhere over the rainbow, bluebirds fly
birds fly over the rainbow-
why, then oh why can't i?

Most the time now we settle for half and i like it better. But the truth is holy and even as i know how wrong he was and his death useless, i tremble, for i confess that something perversely calls to me from his memory - not purely good but himself purely - Alfieri : A view from a bridge.

It's so painful, a feeling stabbing at your heart but you can't let it out. No matter what you do it's trapped inside eating away at you. Until one day you look in the mirror and you're gone. Then you have to find yourself, but you can't see through the darkness. No matter how far you reach out, there's nothing there. You have to fall into the darkness before you can stand in the light, and it's so scary. 
"All sound died out... the cold, dark night gradually fills the room. Unable to get sleep, holding on to the covers... Suddenly, that's when it strikes. As if my chest was being squeezed. Feeling like I want to cry. A painful, uneasy feeling... Yes... From the depths of my sould, a thing called loneliness is coming..." (Kyoichi)

i really feel like crying right about now. there's so much pressure and then i have to defend myself at the same time. why can't people just respect me for who i am?

Being almost devastated is horrible because it lingers. But total devastation brings a kind of peace. It lets you give up.

I'm through accepting limits
'Cause someone says they're so
Some things I cannot change
But 'til I try I'll never know
Too long I've been afraid of
Losing love I guess I've lost
Well, if that's love
It comes at much too high a cost...
How can someone like you love someone like me?

I'm tired of laughing and I'm tired of crying
Tired of failing and tired of all this trying
I want to do some living
Cause I've done enough dying
I just wanna dance
I just wanna f**king dance
