“It's hard enough for a person to keep their own socks pulled up, let alone someone else's.”

“You know it's never fifty-fifty in a marriage. It's always seventy-thirty, or sixty-forty. Someone falls in love first. Someone puts someone else up on a pedestal. Someone works very hard to keep things rolling smoothly; someone else sails along for the ride.”

“Why do I always want to sock it to you hard?
Let you know what love is like when I’m
keeping all my cards up on the shelf
Where you can’t see them
Why do I always want to keep it to myself?”

“Why do you care what people think?
Are you hooked up to their leash?
You know anklebiters ate up your personality
Try to remember how it felt
To just make up your own steps
And let anklebiters chew up and spit out someone else”

“Is it a shame that I can’t accept love? Am I too burned out to move towards what will keep me alive or too smart to get pulled into someone else’s world?”

“When you screw up someone’s life, the least you can do is leave the person alone.”

“I don't care if I fall as long as someone else picks up my gun and keeps on shooting.”

“Love should grow for its own happiness. But in reality, it is very difficult for love to grow alone. Love always needs someone else.”

“Maybe it was just part of growing up with someone. Once you have a rhythm and stay with it long enough, it's not hard to find again.”

“Cease to know or to tell
Or to see or to be your own
Have someone else's will as your own
Have someone else's will as your own.”
