"I’m just trying to survive
What if what you do to survive kills the things you love
Fear’s a powerful thing
It can turn your heart black you can trust
It’ll take your God filled soul
Fill it with devils and dust"

"Finish each day and be done with it. You have done what you could. Some blunders and absurdities no doubt crept in; forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day; begin it well and serenely and with too high a spirit to be encumbered with your old nonsense."
— Ralph Waldo Emerson

"
I woke up, and wished that I was dead
with an aching in my head
I lay motionless in bed
I thought of you and where you’d gone
and let the world spin madly on
and everything that I said I’d do,
like make the world brand new
and take the time for you,
I just got lost and slept right through the dawn
and the world spins madly on
I let the day go by
I always say goodbye
I watch the stars from my window sill
the whole world is moving and I’m standing still

"You cut me down to size and opened up my eyes
Made me realize what I could not see
And I could write a book, the one they’ll say that shook the world
And then it took, it took it back from me
And I could write it down or spread it all around
Get lost and then get found and you’ll come back to me
Not swallowed in the sea"
