Atop the ivory tower I doze, my mind afar and taken,
Dreams of distant lands I weave, not by distractions shaken.
In my world I am content, should I not awaken.

I like your pants around your feet
I like the dirt that's on your knees
And I like the way you still say please
While you're looking up at me
You're like my favourite damn disease

And I love the places that we go
And I love the people that you know
And I love the way you can't say no
Too many long lines in a row
I love the powder on your nose

Ooooh
And now I know who you are
It wasn't that hard
Just to figure you out
And now I know who you are
It wasn't that hard
Just to figure you out

I like the freckles on your chest
And I like the way you like me best
And I like the way you're not impressed,
While you put me to the test
I like the wine stains on your dress

And I love the way you pass the check
And I love the good times that you wreck
And I love your lack of self respect
While you're passed out on the deck
I love my hands around your neck

And now I know who you are
It wasn't that hard
Just to figure you out
And now I know who you are
It wasn't that hard
Just to figure you out

I love your pants around your feet
And I love the dirt that's on your knees
And I like the way you still say please
While you're looking up at me
You're like my favourite damn disease

And I hate the places that we go
And I hate the people that you know
And I hate the way you can't say no
Too many long lines in a row
I hate the powder on your nose

And now I know who you are
It wasn't that hard
Just to figure you out
And now I know who you are
It wasn't that hard
Just to figure you out

-- Know Who You Are, Nickelback

I met a girl who sang the blues,
and i asked her for some happy tunes,
but she just smiled and turned away.

And the three men i admired most,
the father, son and the holy ghost,
they caught the last train for the coast.

The day...

Talent does what it can, genius does what it must,
and those without talent or genius,
we just try
as hard as we can
to be who we are,
and to live life true to ourselves,
and true to those we love.

And at the end of all this
when i say 'we',
all i really mean,
is 'I'.

Be a man.

You must be swift as a coursing river,

With all the force of a great typhoon

With all the strength of a raging fire

Mysterious as the darkside of the moon.

-- Mulan



This has got to be one of the most inspiring lines i have ever read. ever.

We see men of no fear branded children of their egos
it is their egos that are not there
so you fear them

-- HUB

we see men of wit in their twilights
faring into the sea with much fanfare
where once they ventured forth with a quiet word and a scything eye
and a bagful of honesty
I saw them, love, fighting the tides at five in the morning
While I rubbed sleep from my eyes
And heard one of them sing
‘…sea of green.’
Laughing freemen.

-- HUB

To live in her shadow,
To treasure her every touch,
every brush of her shoulders,
every whisper,
every smile,
every look.

To die in want,
of the absolute unattainable,
and to smile,
with every blow,
while the voices in your head,
scream in agony,
crushed between what you do feel,
and what you cant feel.

To seperate from life,
From tantalizing mysteries,
and salt spray,
From the grave gypsy eyes,
and the sacred poignent flesh of long limbed dancers,
Unsullied, but no for long.
