Hiding, In the rafters, Watching, From the rafters, Avoiding you, In these rafters, Escaping your penetrating gaze, In these rafters, Missing you, While I'm in these...

Save me from myself<br /> I can&#039;t relate<br /> We&#039;re mouth to mouth<br /> And still I suffocate<br /> There&#039;s nothing left<br /> Inside of me to break<br /> Save me from myself<br /> Save me from myself<br /> There&#039;s nothing left inside me<br /> There&#039;s nothing left

Favorite Quote:
&ldquo;He&rsquo;s not perfect. You aren&rsquo;t either, and the two of you will never be perfect. But if he can make you laugh at least once, causes you to think twice, and if he admits to being human and making mistakes, hold onto him and give him the most you can. He isn&rsquo;t going to quote poetry, he&rsquo;s not thinking about you every moment, but he will give you a part of him that he knows you could break. Don&rsquo;t hurt him, don&rsquo;t change him, and don&rsquo;t expect for more than he can give. Don&rsquo;t analyze. Smile when he makes you happy, yell when he makes you mad, and miss him when he&rsquo;s not there. Love hard when there is love to be had. Because perfect guys don&rsquo;t exist, but there&rsquo;s always one guy that is perfect for you.&rdquo; <br /> ― Bob Marley

&quot;Isn&#039;t it funny how you broke my heart, but I still love you with all the pieces?&quot;<br /> &quot;It&#039;s easy to stand in a crowd, but it takes courage to stand alone&quot;<br /> &quot;What would you attempt if you knew you could never fail?&quot;
