&quot;These are the times that try men&#039;s souls.&quot; - Thomas Paine.<br /> <br /> &quot;You don&#039;t understand! I coulda had class. I coulda been a contender. I could&#039;ve been somebody, instead of a bum, which is what I am.&quot; - On the Water Front<br /> <br /> &quot;This is my place of failure.&quot;

Can’t help think of you
We were always meant to be
Just can’t fight destiny

You and Me
I and You
Look at all that symmetry
We fit together perfectly

Rhyme without reason
Reason without rhyme
I want you for all of time

You’re the girl
I’m the guy
Be this way until we die

Lightning Strikes
World Attacks
Still I always have your back

Follow Me
I’ll follow you
Lead you through the black and blues

People lie
People Screw
We know just
What to do

Stay together
Far apart
Can’t see the End
Just the Start

Endless Circle
Yin and Yang
Together we can
Endure the pain

Don’t Say This Often
Yet Now I Do
Just trying to say…

I love you.
