"Sometimes you stop to just take a breath
You breathe in the air and you get upset
You don't need to change, you just think you need
A little time alone and away from me
And I'm not the only thing in the world that's in your way
And I know it's hard sometimes
You misunderstand all those things I say
And I don't need anymore, anything to control me
I've thrown my addictions aside again
And I don't need anymore, anything to provoke me
And wonder why I try again
I think that maybe this way that I feel's a side effect
From trying to balance my soul, instead I keep dividing it
And hiding it from people who wanna provoke my bad side
And keep it all from bubbling over into a landslide
I'm medicated just hoping that it'll fly by
But sometimes I need to take a breath and I'll be alright
Up all night because all of this is getting to me
I know you probably want to hit me but breathe with me
Sometimes you stop just to take a breath
You breathe in the air and you get upset
You don't want to change, you just think you need
A little time alone and away from me
And I'm not the only thing in the world that's in your way
And I know it's hard sometimes
You misunderstand all those things I say
I sit so hallowed open while others level off at any cost
I've been depraved of things
That people think are such an awful loss
And I lost the race and picked up the pace
My timing's off, I'm well aware
And I can't believe I say those things I say as if I just don't care
Sometimes you stop just to take a breath
You breathe in the air and you get upset
You don't want to change, you just think you need
A little time alone and away from me
And I'm not the only thing in the world that's in your way
And I know it's hard sometimes
You misunderstand all those things I say
And I don't want anymore, all the greed is controlling
The hunger never seems to end
And I don't try anymore, so afraid of devoting
And then I die inside again
I think that maybe this way that I feel's a side effect
From trying to balance my soul, well I keep dividing it
I try to get back up when I slip on banana peels
Situations develop out the mist of air it kind of feels
Like breathing in exhaust fumes while exhaling the hate
Os so many day gone days gone bad it all seems to fade
And dilute and pollute and contaminate the breathing air
I'm taking breaths in moderation as if I just don't care
Sometimes you stop just to take a breath
You breathe in the air and you get upset
You don't want to change, you just think you need
A little time alone and away from me
And I'm not the only thing in the world that's in your way
And I know it's hard sometimes
You misunderstand all those things I say
Breathe with me as if I just don't care
Would you breathe with me, as if I just don't care
Breathe with me as if I just don't care
Would you breathe with me, as if I just don't care
Breathe with me as if I just don't care
Would you breathe with me, as if I just don't care..."

"Break"
By: Nicole Blackman
"It will come on a cold street corner
After a lovely dinner
the kind of evening that feels like
an American Express commercial,
where you are young and happy,
the kind that makes you feel
lucky to be alive and 24
with a man who thinks you are
beautiful and smart and funny
and worth his time and words.
It will be quick.
It will begin with him stopping you
and saying he needs to talk.
You'll gasp for breath
as you wonder what it is that you did.
It will hurt less if you say it fast,
you'll tell him.
But when he speaks it will be graceless,
ineloquent,
with sentences full of only dry words.
He will say it is him and not you.
He will say how sorry he is,
that you don't deserve this,
that he wishes this all came
at a different time in his life.
He will say that he wants to be friends.
He will finally notice how silent you are,
how much you are in pain.
Your hands will twitch
as you button your coat
against the cold.
You'll bite your lip hard
as the tears come.
The slush on the sidewalk will prevent you from making a clean getaway."

"
I can't run anymore,
I fall before you,
Here I am,
I have nothing left,
Though I've tried to forget,
You're all that I am,
Take me home,
I'm through fighting it,
Broken,
Lifeless,
I give up,
You're my only strength,
Without you,
I can't go on,
Anymore,
Ever again.
My only hope,
(All the times I've tried)
My only peace,
(To walk away from you)
My only joy,
My only strength,
(I fall into your abounding grace)
My only power,
My only life,
(And love is where I am)
My only love.
I can't run anymore,
I give myself to you,
I'm sorry,
I'm sorry,
In all my bitterness,
I ignored,
All that's real and true,
All I need is you,
When night falls on me,
I'll not close my eyes,
I'm too alive,
And you're too strong,
I can't lie anymore,
I fall down before you,
I'm sorry,
I'm sorry.
My only hope,
(All the times I've tried)
My only peace,
(To walk away from you)
My only joy,
My only strength,
(I fall into your abounding grace)
My only power,
My only life,
(And love is where I am)
My only love.
Constantly ignoring,
The pain consuming me,
But this time it's cut too deep,
I'll never stray again.
My only hope,
(All the times I've tried)
My only peace,
(To walk away from you)
My only joy,
My only strength,
(I fall into your abounding grace)
My only power,
My only life,
(And love is where I am)
My only love,
My only hope,
(All the times I've tried)
My only peace,
(To walk away from you)
My only joy,
My only strength,
(I fall into your abounding grace)
My only power,
My only life,
(And love is where I am)
My only love."

"Happiness In Slavery"
By: Nine Inch Nails
"slave screams he think he knows what he wants
slave screams thinks he has something to say
slave screams he hears but doesn't want to listen
slave screams he's being beat into submission
don't open your eyes you won't like what you see
the devils of truth steal the souls of the free
don't open your eyes take it from me
I have found you can find happiness in slavery
slave screams he spends his life learning conformity
slave screams he claims he has his own identity
slave screams he's going to cause the system to fall
slave screams but he's glad to be chained to that wall
don't open your eyes you won't like what you see
the blind have been blessed with security
don't open your eyes take it from me
I have found you can find happiness in slavery
I don't know what I am I don't know where I've been
human junk just words and so much skin
stick my hands thru the cage of this endless routine
just some flesh caught in this big broken machine" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Five To One" by: The Doors
Your ballroom days are over, baby
Night is drawing near
Shadows of the evening crawl across the years
Ya walk across the floor with a flower in your hand
Trying to tell me no one understands
Trade in your hours for a handful dimes
Gonna' make it, baby, in our prime
