I wanted to feel sorry for myself. So I did. I walked through that cold summer rain, sulking and shivering and hurting, and I let myself wallow in whatever misery I could find. I knew it was stupid and selfish and childish, but I didn’t really care anymore. I wanted to wallow. I wanted to be selfish and childish. I wanted to be the guy in the movie who’s down on his luck and all alone in the rain, and if I could have had some miserable music playing in the background, and a million people watching me on TV, I probably would have wanted that too.”

Susanna and the Magical Orchestra – Love Will Tear Us Apart January 13, 2011
When routine bites hard
And ambitions are low
And resentment rides high
But emotions won’t grow
And we’re changing our ways
Taking different roads
Then love, love will tear us apart again
Love, love will tear us apart again
Why is the bedroom so cold
Turned away on your side
Is my timing that flawed
Our respect run so dry
Yet there’s still this appeal
That we’ve kept through our lives
And love, love will tear us apart again
Love, love will tear us apart again
Do you cry out in your sleep
All my failings expose
Get a taste in my mouth
As desperation takes hold
Is it something so good
Just can’t function no more
When love, love will tear us apart again
Love, love will tear us apart again
Love, love will tear us apart again
Love, love will tear us apart again
I Looked For You January 7, 2011
“i looked for you under different stars but you were not there
i looked for you through the ocean shores but you were not there
i looked for you in forgotten chapels but you were not there
i looked for you where the earth is bare but you were not there
i searched the sky the forest the labyrinth of streets of stone
i called you from tops of mountains and bottoms of lakes
but you were not there
yet i still go ahead
to meet your eyes so sad”

A song that makes you cry
Fiona Apple – Love Ridden
Love ridden I’ve looked at you
With the focus I gave to my birthday candles
I’ve wished on the lidded blue flames
Under your brow
And baby I wished for you
Nobody sees when you are lying in your bed
And I wanna crawl in with you
But I cry instead
I want your warm
But it will only make me colder when it’s over
So I can’t tonight, baby
No, not “baby” anymore, if I need you
I’ll just use your simple name
Only kisses on the cheek from now on
And in a little while, we’ll only have to wave
My hand won’t hold you down no more
The path is clear to follow through
I stood too long in the way of the door
And now I’m giving up on you
No, not “baby” anymore, if I need you
I’ll just use your simple name
Only kisses on the cheek from now on
And in a little while, we’ll only have to wave
No, not “baby” anymore, if I need you
I’ll just use your simple name
Only kisses on the cheek from now on
And in a little while, we’ll only have to wave

A picture that makes you angry/sad
Only cartoons can truly make a broken heart crack more. But the message is true. And sometimes the truth can be something that enlightens you.
