I haven't been truthful. I did not like the book you lent me, on hopes of common interests. I do not like poetry. I told you I did. I lied. I did not like the sweater...

The most beautiful people we have known are those who have known defeat, known suffering, known struggle, known loss, and have found their way out of the depths.

&quot;Loving a band with all your heart is something you only understand when it happens to you. On the surface, others can see it as a petty obsession, but they&#039;ll just never know the feeling of putting so much faith into a few people on the other side of the world. It&#039;s hard to explain it to the, the listening to song after song on repeat, the waits for new albums, the excitement and surreal sensation when you finally see them live. They don&#039;t seem to understand why the lyrics booklets give you a sense of comfort, or why you paste photos of them all over you bedroom walls. And they can&#039;t understand why one band could matter to you so much. And you think to yourself &#039;Because they saved my life. But you say nothing, they wouldn&#039;t understand.&quot; - Alex Gaskarth
