Regret is a drug
and you better not take it,
because it's always looking for you.

Love is a lie
and you better not fake it,
because it's always running from you.

Tell me your tale
about how bad your life's been,
because I'd like to hear it again.

Show me your scars
while the light's coming straight in,
because highlights flow rich from your pen.

Yes.

The older I get, the more of fond I grow of even the BAD TIMES.

But then, who doesn't love a good war story, eh?

Nicely done, mr. magic!

Sometimes the only way to tell or look at the truth, is when it's covered with silk and looks pretty. Interesting thoughts you have, my friend.
