❝ I know the kindest thing is to leave you alone. ❞

❝ I’ve run out of my words, my song. ❞

❝ Just let me die. ❞

❝ I could try to calm you down but I know you won’t. ❞

❝ When you think that you’re bereft and you’ll wail, you’ll scream, but I’ll never stop. ‘Cause it’s all that I have left. ❞

❝ I know the kindest thing is to never leave you alone. ❞

❝ You were raised by wolves and voices. ❞

❝ They said it all comes down to you. ❞

❝ You’re the child of silent watching stones. ❞

❝ You’re the words that I promise I don’t mean. ❞

❝ They thought us blind, we were just blinking. ❞

❝ All the stones and kings of old will hear us screaming at the cold. ❞

❝ Remember me. ❞

❝ Give me back my heart, you wingless thing. ❞

❝ Think of all the horrors that I promised you I’d bring. ❞

❝ I promise you they’ll sing of every time you passed your fingers through my hair. ❞

❝ Witness me, I am the Wild. ❞

❝ How bold I was, could be - will be - still am, by god! Still am! ❞

❝ Let not them hear the mutterings of all your fears! ❞

❝ Welcome to the storm. ❞

❝ Welcome to my table, bring your hunger. ❞

❝ Without you I’m stronger. ❞

❝ I’m no longer filled with wonder. ❞

❝ For you, my lungs were pulled asunder. ❞

❝ For you I would have see that wild blue younger and said: “Let’s end this too”. ❞

❝ One last time, love, come and rip my clothes off. ❞

❝ Let’s wander, till the fuckers demand an encore. ❞

❝ This time we’re done for. ❞

❝ Let’s hide under the covers. ❞

❝ So hold me, love, like you used to. So tight I’d bruise you. ❞

❝ Every stone you threw, I stood on to better see the view. ❞

❝ I’ve got something in my eye. ❞

❝ I surrender what was, what could have been. ❞

❝ Try, please, for me. ❞

❝ Don’t you ever wonder, what could have been? ❞

❝ Come rest for the winter, wear my jumper all night long. ❞

❝ Those songs we sung, those words we flung for fear of sound. ❞

❝ We’ll use it to burn this whole place to the ground. ❞

❝ I’m lost in you. ❞

❝ I’m found in you. ❞

❝ Every brick you hurled, I’ll use to build this world. ❞

❝ A storm is coming on. ❞

❝ Wear a raincoat or it’ll soak you to the bone. ❞

❝ It’s just like falling snow, I am above you. ❞

❝ I love you, don’t you know? ❞

❝ When you scream that it’s not fair, it’s like I’ve gone off to the coast left you behind just standing there pretending not to see your ghost. ❞

❝ If only you could hear my voice, but you are screaming far too loud to hear me swear. ❞

❝ Just because I left doesn’t mean that I’m not still there. ❞

❝ Oh darling lord, how you make me laugh. ❞

❝ Get drunk for me, sing louder than you’ve sung for me. ❞

❝ Grow young each time that thunder in your lungs begins to rumble at the world. ❞

❝ You were always strong. ❞

❝ When you were young, you’d kick things just to see if they would fall. ❞

❝ I’ll stick up for you, even though you haven’t got a clue, you haven’t got a fucking clue. ❞

❝ I know you’re strong enough. ❞

❝ I know you’re strong enough to do this on your own. ❞

❝ You’ll miss me, oh, you’ll miss me. ❞

❝ You left me here behind, do you not care? ❞

❝ How the fuck am I supposed to carry on without you here? ❞

❝ You look like I need a drink. ❞

❝ I’m the hardest goodbye that you’ll ever have to say. ❞

❝ I’m the saint of the paint that was left in the pot. ❞

❝ I’m your angel ellipsis, your devil of dots. ❞

❝ When you lie there awake every night, love, I soar. ❞

❝ I promise you I’ll be better. I promise you I’ll try, but like rubbing wine stains into rugs. It’s my curse to try and make it right, but by trying make it worse. ❞

❝ So long to the person you bgged me to be. ❞

❝ She’s dead. ❞

❝ What is left but this old satin dress and the mess that you left when you told me I wasn’t right in the head? ❞

❝ We’d hate to see your mascara drip into your pint. ❞

❝ Might you allow me to slip into something more comfortable then? ❞

❝ Come, call out my name. ❞

❝ Our Gods have abandoned us, left us. ❞

❝ Let us waltz for the dead. ❞

❝ I promise you I’m not broken. ❞

❝ I promise you there’s more to come, more to reach for. ❞

❝ This here is not makeup, it’s a porcelain tomb. ❞

❝ I’m not singing, I’m just screaming in tune. ❞

❝ Now take a good look at what you’ve done to me? ❞

❝ Today I somehow understand the reason I was born. ❞

❝ I try so hard to make you laught at me. ❞

❝ Oh, darling, please be mine. ❞

❝ It’s not fair how much I love you. ❞

❝ You make me laugh when I’m actually really fucking cross at you. ❞

❝ I’ve seen enough. I know exactly what I want. ❞

❝ If you asked me I would lose it all like petals in a storm. ❞

❝ You’ll be death of me. ❞

❝ Dear heart, it’s me. ❞

❝ You don’t need to pretend to be someone you’re not 'cause it’s not like I’ve never heard you fart and snore and for some godforsaken reason I’m still here. ❞

❝ It’s not fair 'cause you make me weep when I’m just trying to watch The Office with my yoghurt. ❞

❝ It’s not fair 'cause you make me ache, you bastard. ❞

❝ The second wind rattles the bones of our fathers, carrying whispers from the dead. ❞

❝ Light a candle. I’ll make sure the bairns are fed. ❞

❝ You try so loud to love me. ❞

❝ Be good to me. ❞

❝ I’m the plans that you made, but fuck all your plans. I’m bored. ❞

❝ The unwanted animal wants nothing more than to get out. ❞

❝ You rip my ribcage open and devour what’s truly yours. ❞

❝ If we join our hands in prayer enough, to God, I imagine it all starts to sound like applause. ❞

❝ You couldn’t lie then and you sure as hell can’t lie now. ❞

❝ Back then your smile was so sublime. ❞

❝ Your eyes aren’t rivers there to weep, but a place for crows to rest their feet. ❞

❝ Do you think I’m sexy? ❞

❝ Oh, if one more guy calls me darling then I swear to you and to God I will murder them all. ❞

❝ All the bastards applaud when I show that I’m flawed. ❞

❝ You’re not flawed, darling, you’re just a little under-rehearsed. ❞

❝ Dear heart, don’t cry. ❞

❝ I’m at the brink. ❞

❝ Who’ll save you when you fall? ❞

❝ Who died and made you king of it all? ❞

❝ Who wins this war? ❞

❝ You lack the conviction to look at me straight in the eyes. ❞

❝ Don’t be uncouth. ❞

❝ Don’t lie with your eyes, you know I despise that look. ❞

❝ Tell the truth to me. ❞

❝ The wine stains hide the tears. ❞

❝ Breathing, don’t mistake it for sighs. They’re just battle cries. ❞

❝ These lines aren’t wrinkles, they’re just dollops of paint on a new work of art. ❞

❝ That creaking you hear in my bones is not pain, it’s applause. ❞

❝ We were gods. ❞

❝ With you, I could summon the gods and the stars. Watch them dance out the plays that we wrote from the heart and we’d laugh at the ghosts of our fears. ❞

❝ I won’t leave without a fight. ❞

❝ I won’t let you turn our last night into this. ❞

‘  i’ll  find  you  again ,  wherever  we  end  up  next .  ’

‘  the  enormity  of  my  desire  disgusts  me .  ’

‘  please ,  one  more  kiss  in  the  kitchen  before  we  turn  the  lights  off .  ’

‘  i’ve  been  lost  but  i’m  here  now .  you’re  the  only  person  who  has  ever  been  able  to  find  me .  ’

‘  almost  dead  yesterday ,  maybe  dead  tomorrow ,  but  alive ,  gloriously  alive ,  today .  ’

‘  you  are  not  broken .  ’

‘  you  can  love  and  be  loved ,  despite  what  may  feel  like  the  eternally  brutal  nature  of  the  world .  ’

‘  i  did  violence  to  my  own  heart .  ’

‘  will  i  be  forgiven  for  the  sins  i  did  not  commit ,  but  created ?  ’

‘  i  would  never  kiss  anyone  who  doesn’t  burn  me  like  the  sun .  ’

‘  i  would  rather  break  the  world  than  lose  you .  ’

‘  i  think  you  and  i  have  known  each  other  in  a  few  lifetimes .  ’

‘  i  didn’t  know .  i  had  no  idea  how  greedy  my  heart  really  was .  ’

‘  is  that  why  the  idea  of  losing  you  torments  me  so  much ?  ’

‘  how  long  have  i  been  without  you ?  ’

‘  am  i  foolish  for  wanting  this ?  it  will  end  in  flames .  it  always  does .  ’

‘  sorry  about  the  blood  in  your  mouth .  i  wish  it  was  mine .  ’

‘  if  i  love  you ,  is  that  a  fact  or  a  weapon ?  ’

‘  tell  me  how  all  this ,  and  love  too ,  will  ruin  us .  ’

‘  and  you  realize  the  one  person  in  the  world  who  loves  you  isn’t  the  one  you  thought  it  would  be .  ’

‘  it  cannot  be  a  mistake  to  have  cared .  it  cannot  be  an  error  to  have  tried .  it  cannot  be  incorrect  to  have  loved .  ’

‘  finally ,  i  plead  guilty  of  adoring  you .  ’

‘  a  child  weaned  on  poison  considers  harm  a  comfort .  ’

‘  without  realizing ,  i  find  it  in  myself  that  i  cannot  stop  thinking  about  you .  ’

‘  tomorrow ,  when  i  wake  up ,  i  promise ,  i  will  be  better .  ’

‘  someone  has  to  leave  first .  this  is  a  very  old  story .  there  is  no  other  version  of  this  story .  ’

‘  when  i  imagine  myself ,  i  am  always  leaving .  i  couldn’t  draw  my  own  face  if  god  asked .  ’

‘  do  we  simply  stare  at  what’s  horrible  and  forgive  it ?  ’

‘  i  wanted  to  let  go  of  the  pain  even  though  it  was  the  last  thing  that  felt  alive  from  you .  ’

‘  have  i  endured  loneliness  with  grace ?  ’

‘  i’ll  be  your  slaughterhouse ,  your  killing  floor ,  your  morgue  and  final  resting ,  walking  around  with  this  bullet  inside  me  ‘cause  i  couldn’t  make  you  love  me  and  i  am  tired  of  pulling  your  teeth .  ’

‘  and  then  my  soul  saw  you  and  kind  of  went ,  ‘ oh ,  there  you  are .  i’ve  been  looking  for  you . ’  ’

‘  sometimes  it  feels  like  someone  else  is  wearing  my  body .  ’

‘  i  spent  my  life  arguing  how  i  mattered  until  it  didn’t  matter .  ’ 

‘  who  knew  my  haven  would  be  my  coffin ?  ’

‘  dead  is  the  safest  i’ve  ever  been .  ’

‘  i’ve  never  been  so  alive .  ’ 

‘  you  know  what  i  was  gonna  tell  you  before ,  but  didn’t  have  the  nerve ?  you  got  your  name  written  all  over  me .  i  got  my  name  written  on  you ,  too .  ’ 

‘  you  already  are  something .  you  always  were .  and  you  still  have  time  to  be .  ’

‘  you  know  me  by  heart .  it  infuriates  me  that  you  know  me  by  heart .  ’ 

‘  why  am  i  waiting  for  you ?  hungering  and  thirsting  for  you  in  every  cranny  of  my  soul  and  even  in  my  ribs ?  ’ 

‘  you  came  with  a  handful  of  pain  and  a  smile  which  broke  the  ground  under  my  feet  as  the  earthquake  does  when  two  people  meet .  ’

‘  the  only  good  thing  is  that  i’m  getting  used  to  suffering .  ’

‘  the  return  to  time  was  not  my  choice .  ’

‘  we  are  built  to  live  inside  each  other .  this  means  we  are  built  to  ruin .  ’

‘  time  does  not  bring  relief ;  you  all  have  lied .  ’

‘  time  does  not  know  how  to  keep  our  hopes  safe .  ’

‘  you  needed  me  so  much  that  you  had  to  end  me .  ’

‘  there  are  days  where  i  am  morbidly  in  love  with  you ,  and  this  is  one  of  those  days .  ’

‘  i  know  no  end  to  desiring  you .  ’

‘  i  fear  that  i  am  both  too  much  yet  not  enough .  ’

‘  yes ,  yes ,  yes ,  i  do  like  you .  i  am  afraid  to  say  the  stronger  word .  ’ 

‘  a  heart’s  a  heavy  burden .  ’

‘  life ,  as  i  see  it ,  is  all  about  farewells  rather  than  reunions .  ’

‘  heaven  is  real  and  you  only  had  two  minutes  to  prove  it  to  me .  ’

‘  it  was  already  love .  ’

‘  everyone  desires  love  but  also  finds  it  impossible  to  believe  that  they  deserve  it .  ’

‘  i’ll  love  you  until  i  forget  how  to .  ’

‘  i’ll  love  you  until  i  forget  how  to  and  then  i’ll  fall  like  my  knees  aren’t  already  bruised  from  doing  it  and  i’ll  remember  why  you’re  worth  the  ache .  ’

‘  of  course  i’ll  hurt  you .  of  course  you’ll  hurt  me .  of  course  we’ll  hurt  each  other .  but  this  is  the  very  condition  of  existence .  ’

‘  nothing  makes  me  sadder  and  nothing  makes  me  happier  than  you .  ’

‘  i  love  you  and  i  do  not  want  to  love  you ,  it  is  too  much  and  too  difficult .  ’

‘  grief  is  just  love  with  no  place  to  go .  ’

‘  i  felt  my  life  with  both  my  hands  to  see  if  it  was  there .  ’

‘  you  do  this ,  you  do .  you  take  the  things  you  love  and  you  tear  them  apart .  ’

‘  i  hope  it’s  love .  i’m  trying  really  hard  to  make  it  love .  ’

‘  if  you  touch  me  again  i  might  burn  up  in  the  cold  air .  ’

‘  i  asked  you  not  to  leave  several  times .  ’

‘  i’ve  only  adored  you  lifetimes  ago  and  here  we  are .  it’s  nice  to  see  you  again .  ’

‘  all  time  ever  does  is  pass  and  all  i  ever  do  is  remember .  ’

‘  i  feel  as  though  we  were  never  strangers ,  you  and  i ,  not  even  for  a  moment .  ’

‘  i’d  choose  you ;  in  a  hundred  different  lifetimes ,  in  a  hundred  worlds ,  in  any  version  of  reality ,  i’d  find  you  and  i’d  choose  you .  ’

‘  nothing  about  this  is  soft  but  we  pretend .  ’

‘  maybe  you  and  i  are  just  a  dream .  ’

‘  i  know  you  loved  me  too ,  you  knew  me ,  and  it  gladdens  my  heart .  ’

‘  i  promise  i  shall  never  give  up  and  that  i’ll  die  yelling  and  laughing .  ’

‘  i  don’t  do  anything  with  my  life  except  romanticize  and  decay  with  indecision .  ’

‘  the  world  was  made  so  that  we  could  find  each  other  in  it .  ’

‘  you  don’t  meet  the  people  you  love ,  you  recognize  them .  ’

‘  i  think  you  and  i  have  known  each  other  a  few  lifetimes .  ’

‘  this  body  knows  fear  like  a  front  porch  knows  welcome  –  it  is  always  coming  home .  ’

‘  i  miss  you  more  than  i  remember  you .  ’

‘  if  i  could  have  done  it  all  again ,  i  would  have  loved  you  better .  but  i  could  not  have  loved  you  more .  ’

‘  we  could  have  been  happy .  i  know  that ,  and  it  is  perhaps  the  hardest  thing  to  know .  ’
