Assorted RP starters taken from lyrics from the album The Fool in Her Wedding Gown by the band The Crane Wives; slight adjustment- such as pronouns -for ease of interaction OK!
“Oh my brother, who have you become in the wake of all that’s happened here?”
“Tell yourself there’s no more need to lie. We don’t have time for that.”
“There is nothing left to bring me back down.”
“Steady, steady, you know when you’re ready.”
“I can take for better but for worse can’t condone.”
“This ring around my finger’s like a chain around my throat.”
“Are you so sure you tamed me?”
“Don’t just watch me go, you fool.”
“If I were someplace else, would this be easier?”
“The only peace I have ever known is the peace I made with you.”
“I won’t move, but I can’t stay here.”
“So what the hell am I supposed to do?”
“If I were someone else, would this be easier?”
“I learned to hold it for a while and let it go.”
“Please tell me someday I’ll at least be able to sleep.”
“If I were not myself, would this be easier?”
“I’m at a loss for better plans.”
“'Cause this is all I have.”
“So I’ll just close my eyes and try to pretend that it gets easier.”
“Stay the course when you falter and don’t you think of me.”
“Let her leave my sight. Make her leave my mind.”
“Bring it down on my head if these sins are mine.”
“All I want is to be free.”
“You built your kingdom around me, now I’m trapped within your walls.”
“Bundle up darling, you’re on your own now.”
“I am not one to live with regret.”
“It’s all that I can give to you my dear.”
“I know that you mean so well.“
“I am not a vessel for your good intent.”
“If you’re fine with that.”
“Abandon all your stupid dreams.”
“You gotta know that this won’t last.”
“I can’t stay here anymore so remember when I go.”
“I know you’re not the one.”
“ I’m a book on a shelf, collecting dust all by myself, but I carry all the words you wrote.”
“There ain’t nothing about you I don’t know.”
“For bravely I will wield my weapon I made from those that died.”
“I shed my old sins, for weight will only make me weak.”
“I only fought for love at your request.”
“You could still carry me away but you’d leave me here to die.”
“Once and for all, what does that mean?”
“It’s a promise I’m making that I don’t actually believe.”
“Am I the only thing that keeps you safe when the light is gone?”
“I’ll sing you songs until the darkness does recede.”
“But if in the end I lose my voice will you forget about your love for me?”
“I still hold out hope that maybe someday I’ll be worth more than all the silence left in my way.”
“Know that all my love will be your breath.”
“You’ll need room to run and something to chase.”
“There is no safe place, no sanctuary. It’s all just child’s play, a game of hide and seek.”
“Don’t make it harder than it has to be.”
“All you’ve ever wanted is an escape.”
“Love’s the only thing worth being alive for.”
“Those of us who vow never to love again are making liars out of honest men.”
“Though you’ve convinced yourself you’re safe and sound within, the thing you fear the most never need get in.”
