“But alas! These my golden expectations have been like the south sea dreams. I have lived hither to a poor sinner, and I believe I shall die one. Have I then gained nothing? Yes I have gained that which I once would rather have been without – such accumulated proof of the deceitfulness and desperate [...]

“Death is pretty final
I’m collecting vinyl
I’m gonna DJ
at the end of the world!
’cause if Heaven does exists
with a kickin’ playlist
I don’t wanna miss it

good and ready…
…it’s on my mind
and it’s in my mind
and it’s what I found
and [...]

But You live through every tantrum, You [...]

“Is there a way out? I don’t think there is – at least not on my side. It often seems that the more I try to disentangle myself from the darkness, the darker it becomes. I need light, but that light has to conquer my darkness, and that I cannot bring about myself. I cannot [...]

“The beast in me Is caged by frail and fragile bars Restless by day And by night rants and rages at the stars God help the beast in me
