Cause & Effect

Hands can’t touch the heart without permission
Breath can’t escape without someone else taking it all in
Running won’t get us far as long as we’re connected

Pen won’t write without words behind it
Dreams don’t matter when life isn’t worth coming back to
Be a muse if you’re amused
Beauty won’t last without eyes open shut, seeing through the skin deep
Every vision is direction

Throw caution to the wind as long as we’re connected
These worries are lacking
Be sure of the things you say without apology
Every word is currency

We’ve become like the waters, as deep as can be
Fire to the flame, friction between us causes heat
Feel what you want & be true to the moment
Love to no end, always calling my name
Everything’s a conduit

Quotes: Action

Quote: Drinking

And if nothing happens, you drink to make something happen.

That’s the problem with drinking, I thought,
as I poured myself a drink.
If something bad
happens you drink in an
attempt to forget;
if something good
happens you drink
in order to celebrate;
and if nothing happens
you drink to
make something happen.

~ Charles Bukowski

Usher – I Care For You (Lyrics)

you’re saying i care
but it’s like… what more can i do?
girl, you can keep that
trying to make me jealous
i admit that i’ve been careless,
but we can’t take back what’s done!
i know why you did that
you’re frustrated cause i don’t read that
maybe you want some feedback
cause normally my feelings go…

chorus:
but baby, i care for you
by now you should know that i care for you
you say my actions are showing…
gotta believe that i care for you
baby, i care for you!
i, i, i care for you

everyday i’m trying to prove myself to you
but what’s the point?
no such thing is satisfying you
maybe you’ll appreciate it later
by the time i’m gone
better get you act together
don’t wait too long!
don’t wanna change what we have
or what we had
girl, i need you to know that i

chorus:
i care for you
by now you should know that i care for you
you say my actions are showing…
gotta believe that i care for you
baby, i care for you!
i, i, i care for you!
gotta believe it, gotta believe it, gotta believe it
i can’t, i can’t, i can’t, i can’t
oh, oh, girl i care for you
by now you should know that i care for you
you say my love is…
i care for you
baby i care for you
now listen, hear me!
