Favorite Quote:
Another sleepless night; another smoked pack, crumpled next to my feet; piles of clothes everywhere in the room; piles of music sheets all over. Infinity of mess and unfinished thoughts.

The darkness falls,
Once again
Where are you tonight?
I wonder if it's a crazy dream,
Our own form of suicide
You often haunt my memories
Wrecking the lullaby
I cannot sleep
I cannot feel
The emptiness surrounds me so tight
And darkness falls,
Once again
Where are you tonight?
Can you hear me,
Can you feel this
My personal suicide

In my early teens I hit a really low point. I suffered from depression, and often wondered if I was the only person who felt the way I did.
