years grows seems
And if there's anything I do it's change and grow. I'm just a living being. Every year of my life I seem to learn that everything I know is wrong.
challenges want bed
If you want to challenge the system, don't go to bed with it.
opportunity light feelings
Well, it's really gratifying to me to have a stage and some bright lights and a microphone. They're tools and opportunities, and to be able to just pull somebody up on stage with me and point at them is a great feeling.
real believe scare
What bugs me is that you believe what you're saying. What bothers me is that you don't know how you feel. What scares me is that while you're telling me stories, you actually believe that they are real.
government ecosystems perfection
You can't start with imbalance and end with peace, be that in your own body, in an ecosystem or between a government and its people. What we need to strive for is not perfection, but balance.
together balance feminism
Feminism is not only for women It's something everyone can participate in, and evolve together, as the first step in the right direction. I see feminism as a tool to achieve that balance and peace.
soul mind want
I want somebody who sees the pointlessness and still keeps their purpose in mind; I want somebody who has a tortured soul ...some of the time

I never try to imagine the future. I kinda think it's a waste of time. I live in the now.
thinking lines wells
If you think you know what I'm doing wrong well you're gonna have to get in line...

What I like way better than LGBT in terms of labeling sexuality actually is a scheme that comes to me from my friend Animal Prufrock wherein one is identified not by what they supposedly "are" but rather by what they are into. Which brings us to the terms hemosexual, shemosexual, and mosexual.
fire schedules ends
Love sets fire to your schedule, And then calls an end to time.
long gone whole-life
I've been a long time coming, and I'll be a long time gone. You've got your whole life to do something, and that's not very long.
hate pops pop-music
I seriously hate pop music and all things super-commercial.
song littles letters
My songs are just little letters to me.
