“Hindsight was always so fucking perfect and so fucking useless.”

Sit back,
Matter of fact,
Teasing, toying, turning, chatting,
Charming, hissing, playing the crowd
Play that song again
Another couple Klonopin,
A nod, a glance, a half-hearted bowOh such grace,
Oh such beauty,
And lipstick and callous and fishnets and malice
Oh darling,
You’re a million ways to be cruel
You’re a million ways to be cruel
You’re a million ways to be cruelI should,
I wish I could
Maybe if you were, I would
A list of standard issue regretsOne last eighty proof,
Slouching in the corner booth,
Baby it’s as good as it getsOh such grace,
Oh such beauty,
So precious, suspicious, and charming and vicious,
Oh darling,
You’re a million ways,
Oh darling,
You’re a million ways to be cruel
You’re a million ways to be cruel
You’re a million ways to be cruelOh darling,
Oh darling, you’re a million ways
Oh darling,
Oh darling you’re a million ways,
Oh
Oh darling,
Oh darling you’re a million ways to be
Oh oh oh oh
You’re a million ways to be cruel
You’re a million ways to be cruel
You’re a million ways to be cruel
You’re a million ways to be
Cruel
You’re a million ways to be cruel
You’re a million ways to be
Oh darling, you’re a million ways to be cruel -
Give me a moment
Got to get this weight up off my chest
Don’t feed me sorrow
Pain is a poison I digestFind yourself another soul to hold
You think you thought I know
Off upon my journey I must go
To where the river flows
I’ll give you answersTo the questions you have yet to ask
Silence is beautyWords they only complicate the task
Make no more wishesAll of my patience has been spent
Gods of the seasonLead me to my next incident
-
We can fight our desires, ooh
But when we start making fires
We get ever so hot, ooh
Whether we like it or not
They say we can love who we trust, ooh
But what is love without lust?
Two hearts with accurate devotions, ooh
What are feelings without emotions?I’m going in for the kill
I’m doing it for a thrill
Oh, I’m hoping you’ll understand
And not let go of my hand
I’m going in for the kill
I’m doing it for a thrill
Oh, I’m hoping you’ll understand
And not let go of my handI hang my hopes out on the line, ooh
Well, they’d be ready for you in time
If you leave them out too long, ooh
They’ll be withered by the sun
Full stops and exclamation marks, ooh
My words stumble before I start
How far can you send emotions? Ooh
Can this bridge cross the ocean?I’m going in for the kill
I’m doing it for a thrill
Oh, I’m hoping you’ll understand
And not let go of my hand
I’m going in for the kill
I’m doing it for a thrill
Oh, I’m hoping you’ll understand
And not let go of my handLet’s go to war to make peace
Let’s be cold to create heat
I hope in darkness we can see
And you’re not blinded by the light from meOoh I’m going in for the kill
I’m doing it for a thrill
Oh, I’m hoping you’ll understand
And not let go of my hand -
Bet he feels like an elephant
Shaking his big grey trunk for the hell of it
You know that you’re dreaming about being loved by him
Too bad your chances are slimAnd it’s not like Mr. Shock
To get shy when I ask who always is on top?
There must be something deep down in the middle down there
He’s not too easily scaredHe’s got friends but they got the feeling
Wouldn’t care too much if he just disappeared
Oh, look, see there he is now coming down the stairs
(Here he comes)He pulled the mirrors off his Cadillac (yeah)
‘Cause he doesn’t like it looking like he looks back
He talks like his opinion is a simple fact
Somebody grabbed his collar
He cried the whole way home
He won’t remember a thing ’til it starts again
That’s how it is ’til the end (yeah) -
Am I
Am I still tough enough?
Feels like i’m wearing down, down, down, down, down
Is my visciousness
Losing ground, ground, ground, ground ground?
Am I taking too much
Did I cross a line, line, line?
I need my role in this
Very clearly definedI need your discipline
I need your help
I need your discipline
You know once I start I cannot help myselfAnd now it’s starting up
Feels like i’m losing touch
Nothing matters to me
Nothing matters as muchI see you left a mark
Up and down my skin
I don’t know where I end
And where you beginI need your discipline
I need your help
I need your discipline
You know once I start I cannot help myselfI. Can. Not. Stop. Myself.
Once I start I cannot stop myself
And you.
Once I start I cannot stop myself
And you know.
Once I start I cannot stop myself
And you.
Once I start I cannot stop myself
And you know.
Once I start I cannot stop myselfI need your discipline
(And you)
I need your help
(Once I start I cannot stop myself)
I need your discipline
(And you know)
Because once I start I cannot stop myself
I need your discipline
(And you)
I need your help
(Once I start I cannot stop myself)
I need your discipline
(And you know)
Because once I start I cannot stop myself -
Somethin’ filled up
my heart with nothin’.
Someone told me not to cry.But now that I’m older,
my heart’s colder,
and I can see that it’s a lie.Children, wake up.
Hold your mistake up
before they turn the summer into dust.If the children don’t grow up,
our bodies get bigger but our hearts get torn up.
We’re just a million little gods causin’ rain storms,
turnin’ every good thing to rust.I guess we’ll just have to adjust.
With my lightnin’ bolts a glowin’,
I can see where I am goin’ to be
when the reaper he reaches and touches my hand.With my lightnin’ bolts a glowin’,
I can see where I am goin’.
With my lightnin’ bolts a glowin’,
I can see where I am go — goin’!You better look out below!

“I know you feel a bit down right now, but it’ll pass. Hey. You wanna break into my house and replace some of those hidden cameras you like so much? Would that cheer you up?”
Remy chuckled despite himself. “I may have done that already,” he whispered, smiling against Luke’s tee shirt when he heard him laugh too.
“That’s my boy,” Luke whispered back and kissed his temple.

My deepest emotional relationships have always been with women. Did that mean I was a lesbian? But my sexual fantasies involved two male partners. Was I a gay boy trapped in a girl’s body?
The knowledge of a third option slept like a seed under the soil.

No one would come, because he’d foolishly decided to ‘shake things up a bit’ and take a wrong turn home.”
