"Happiness is the memory of heaven..."

"...and the night keeps rolling past on pistons..."

"...when I come out the other end..."

"...an angel that has strayed far from God's grace...

"...Operation Restore Legacy was one more act of crazy desperation..."

"...Where the Shenandoahs' beryl falls to black, ultramarine to onyx..."

"One time, I wished upon a silver moon..."

"...Forlorn and forgotten, forsaken and lost..."

"...that's a tree you'll have to find yourself..."

"...please stop, we're starving to death and weak and suffering..."

"...How our paths crossed in time by chance..."

"...The deluge took us in its thralldom..."

"...into the kitchen where we can grab a dragon by the belly..."

"...I laugh with her liquors and she cries with my bread..."

"...The ballet is silly because I prefer to dance by myself..."

"...Until we own up to our own culpability we're left exposed..."

"...The height of hyperinflation happened in mid-November 2008..."

"...what creatures from other planets would be like..."

"...long nights alone just eat away at your soul..."

"...Luck has a toxic twin called Misfortune..."

"...so beautiful sparkling blue and electric-green..."

"fall asleep with the house on fire..."

"...In spite of their adversities, they always find solace in jokes..."

"Sometimes I see the sky smiling at me..."

"...in its fall I hold your rage..."

"...as if I was always in need..."

"...take thy lashing from out my heart..."

"Any man who can't save himself can certainly promise to save others..."
