“Wanna make a monster? Take the parts of yourself that make you uncomfortable—your weaknesses, bad thoughts, vanities, and hungers—and pretend they’re across the room. It’s too ugly to be human. It’s too ugly to be you. Children are afraid of the dark because they have nothing real to work with. Adults are afraid of themselves.”

- “Black Telephone” - Richard Siken (via thegenerationlost)

“

Now I’ll be bold
As well as strong
And use my head alongside my heart
So tame my flesh
And fix my eyes
A tethered mind freed from the lies

And I’ll kneel down
Wait for now
I’ll kneel down
Know my ground

Raise my hands
Paint my spirit gold
And bow my head
Feel my heart slow

Cause I will wait I will wait for you
And I will wait I will wait for you

”

- “I Will Wait” - Mumford & Sons

myletterstojanelle — Thu, 06 Dec 2012 14:53:19 -0500

“

I’m gonna live my life and my dreams.
I’m gonna make my rules, my own scenes.
Sorry,
I’m not sorry.
I’m gonna live my life, take chances.
Full of hope and new romances.
Sorry, sorry,
I’m not sorry.

If the sky is the limit, then I’ll build a bridge up to it.
If I make it back, I’d still want more, more.
If the sky is the limit, then I’ll steal the air that’s in it.
I won’t take it back, I’d still want more.
I’d still want more.

If the sky is the limit, then I’ll build a bridge up to it.
If I make it back, I’d still want more.

“These eyes ungoverned are tearing us apart
Their ears forsaken have given up on art
Now, why believe in anything they praise
When one hand holds them the victor
While the other holds the shovel to their graves”

“

Let’s take a look back, so we can see,
What it took to bring us here and we’re
So reminded of better days,
When we were both happy.

Words can’t express,
the impact you’ve made on me,
And — in my entire life.
And all I can say is that I love you,
For everything it turned out to be.

This is for you (this is for you).
You’re the one worth waiting for.
You’re all I ever needed in this life.

Cause I try,
So hard to make this right (right).

You’ve got my back on the wall.

After all you’ve put me through,
My friends still stay true.

Your reign is over,
Why couldn’t you prove me wrong?

myletterstojanelle — Sun, 21 Oct 2012 14:14:00 -0400

“You’ve bled me dry, but I’m still breathing
I swear I’m sucking dry the sky
And you won’t ever find us kneeling
Or swallowing your lies
If I held my ground would you ask me to change?
This drought bleeds on now we’re dancing for rain
We drink the air but it’s still not the same
These worlds collide but the distance remains
We point the finger, never accept the blame, and I know.. I know”

- “Dancing For Rain” - Rise Against

myletterstojanelle — Thu, 18 Oct 2012 11:29:00 -0400

“

That this place is an enemy, full of harsh words and hearsay
And if this city were to go down in flames would you think to blow it out?
With such a weak breath or run about the streets
Run about the streets, crying confusion

I stumbled when I saw your intention
I screamed “from my eyes flow compassion for you!”
Hoping that words could move you.

myletterstojanelle — Sun, 14 Oct 2012 21:47:00 -0400

“

Solitary views
Of the other side of a plane we’ve yet to know
Will we ever get the chance to walk alone in this life
Or when we find out that we’re home
What will we hear there?

Love me, love me,
Why don’t you know me, know me?
Hold me, hold me
And trust me, trust me

Inhabitations through
I can finally forget a past you say you never knew
I reach my hands to the sky

Love me, love me,
Why don’t you know me, know me?
Hold me, hold me
And trust me, trust me

And every time that I waste
An unknown region of space
I can meet you all there,
Throw your arms in the air
Hands towards the sky,
Your fear
Hands towards the sky,
Your fear

Love me, love me,
Why don’t you know me, know me?
Hold me, hold me
And trust me, trust me

Love me, love me,
Why don’t you know me, just know me?
Hold me, hold me
And trust me, trust me

My eyes are glistening with the ghosts of my past
And what we once had

And all the world’s a stage
I existed because I dreamed
And well, I dream no more

myletterstojanelle — Fri, 05 Oct 2012 17:48:31 -0400

“

Bonfires burn like beacons,
Guiding the lost and weakened.
Flames dance on crashing waves,
Guiding ships who’ve gone astray

Time out, let’s stop and think this through,
We’ve all got better things to do,
Than talk in circles, run in place,
Answers inches from our face.

Although we have no obligation to stay alive
On broken backs we beg for mercy, we will survive
(Break out) I won’t be left here
Behind closed doors.

“

I’m not the one that you want, I’ll only let you down,
And I’m pretty sure that you’ve caught on,
And you can say that oh, I’m just feeling sorry for myself.

But maybe it’s all eyes on him, in love with ego and intention,
The eyes that are just begging me for more,
This is gone and I can see it, your head is full of words,
Full of words that don’t mean anything…

“

God heal this feeling running through me
It sinks down my boots
Around the groove of opportunity

Anger now running through my veins but
It only gets just below my brain
All I need is to mind my mind
To be a man, do all, be heart, yo

Every time, girl
I feel the way you be
It becomes your
Addicting underkey

“

While we watch the sun rain down on you

Your only mistake was to let me live
My mind is now a stronghold no one shall enter
And you can’t blind what already can’t see
Now I channel all my pain to you

Don’t speak to me as if I can be wrong
Some wounds are not meant to heal at all
You’ll make the same mistakes all over again

thegenerationlost — Sun, 30 Sep 2012 23:17:12 -0400

“

Through the ashes I spread my wings again
Why am I cheating death when it’s life that’s the enemy?
I bite the bullet and get right up on my feet again

Don’t you dare to read my mind
Because you don’t like, won’t like what you’ll find
And the more that you resist me
The greater the damage will be

"Wait, what are you talking about, we decided!? My best interest?! How can you know what’s my best..."

thegenerationlost — Wed, 26 Sep 2012 20:47:32 -0400

“

Wait, what are you talking about, we decided!?
My best interest?! How can you know what’s my best interest is?
How can you say what my best interest is? What are you trying to say, I’m crazy?
When I went to your schools, I went to your churches,
I went to your institutional learning facilities?! So how can you say I’m crazy?

They say they’re gonna fix my brain
Alleviate my suffering and my pain
But by the time they fix my head
Mentally I’ll be dead

I’m not crazy - in an institution
You’re the one who’s crazy - in an institution
You’re driving me crazy - in an institution
They stuck me in an institution
Said it was the only solution
To give me the needed professional help
To protect me from the enemy — myself.

Doesn’t matter, I’ll probably get hit by a car anyway.

“

If you were here,
I’d never have a fear.
So go on live your life.
But I miss you more than I did yesterday.
You’re so far away.
So c’mon show me how.
‘Cause I mean this more than words can ever say.

We are, made from the sharpest things you’d say.
We are young and we don’t care.
Your dreams and your hopeless hair.
We never wanted it to be this way.
For all our lives.
Do you care at all?

If you were here,
I’d never have a fear.
So go on live your life.
But I miss you more than I did yesterday.
