Quotes

And I will get lonely/ and gasp for air./ And send your name up from my lips/ like a signal flare.

Pull my mask so tight,/until it pinches my skin./ Nerves strung so tight,/ I am a Mandolin.

Live like an Outlaw,/ clutching gold coins in his claw.

Plug a Nightlight in/ leave the porchlight on./ Because the small dark corners/ have designs on me.

And I dreamt of a House,/ Haunted by all you Tweakers with your hands out./ And the Headstones climbed up the Hills...

What'll I do if I don't have you/ when I finally get what I deserve?

Me and my Crew, we will deal with you./ We will deal with you, me and my Pagan Crew.

The things that you've got coming will do things that you're afraid to./There is someone waiting out there with a mouthful of surprises./ The ghosts that haunt your building have been learning how to breathe./ They scan the hallways nightly vainly searching for a sign./ There must be diamonds somewhere in a place that stinks this bad./There are brighter things than diamonds coming down the line./ Here they come,/The young thousands.

God damn these Vampires, and what they've done to me.

No greater love than to lay my life down for a friend, / no sweeter pleasure than to see the credits clear through to the end.

Put on Sackcloth and try to Play Nice,/ you can't cross the same river twice.

Crude little wooden idols, and Aviator Shades,/ the trinkets and the treasures we brought back from the Crusades./ Some guy in an Impala shakes his head as he drives by,/ but I remember when we shared a Vision, you and I!

Paupers hammering at the walls of the Castle, /going to meet the King./ Never sleep, remember to breathe deep.

I'm still here, but all is lost.

Room full of ambitious young Policeman,/ everyone trying to make his mark./ I was a red dot on a Screen of Red,/ and then the room went dark./ Dream of waking up someday,/ and wanting you less than I do / This is just a Dream though,/ it's never gonna come true.

And when the Cherry's ripe with Blossom, be ready and be Brave./ And remember what we had here, when there was something left to save.

I have High Unicorn Tolerance...

Something's coming to reward us, you wait and see,/ or squash us all like fleas.

Anyone here Mentioning "Hotel California"/ dies before the first line clears his lips.

From the California Coastline, to the Iowa Corn,/ to the rooms with the Heat-Lamps where the Snakes get born.

The room fills up with smoke,/ is this somebody's idea of a joke?

People were mean to you, but I always thought you were cool!

Our Mother has been absent, ever since we Founded Rome./ But there's gonna be a Party when the Wolf comes home.

There's a Club where you like to go, you could meet someone lost like you./ Stumble through the darkness like a pair of open graves,/ fall into each other for a Season or two.

I can't feel you in the dark!/ Don't know where you've gone./ Hope you're out there, there in the shadows somewhere./ Trying to soldier on.
