you are kind and that’s enough.⠀ ╱⠀you’re a diamond in the rough.

the question then is whether it is nobler in the mind to be well — liked but ineffectual or moral but maligned .

only my ashes will see the sea .

you say you only believe what you can touch and feel —— but magic does nothing if not touch the soul and there’s no greater feeling than that .

if i had a heart , it would beat for you .

don’t talk about her like that . like she’s subhuman .

over the dead sea , keeping you company . thinking : i’m not afraid of you now , i’m not afraid of you .

i bet on losing dogs — i’ll be there by their side , i’m losing by their side .

you know i’m in love with you , right ?

she’d do what you taught her , she’d meet the same cruel fate . so now i gotta run , so i can undo this mistake .

it’s not an act of love if you make her .

i had only one thought before the slaughter : this man will not make an orphan of my daughter .

i could be a good mother and i wanna be your wife . so i hold you to my knife .

you don’t need to remind me . i should put it all behind me , shouldn’t i ? but i see her in the back of my mind all the time .

nothing you could take was worth keeping .

why did i survive if this was all i’d get ? what did it all mean if this is where it put me ? this can’t be all there is .

weren’t we the stars in heaven ? weren’t we the salt in the sea ? dragon in the new warm mountain , didn’t you believe in me ?

i don’t wanna be the owner of your fantasy , i just wanna be a part of your family .

through whoever you’ve been , through whoever you’ll be , through whatever you lose — you will always have me .

how much sorrow can i take , black bird on my shoulder ?
