It’s not important to be defined, it’s only important to use your time well Picture Quote #1

God help you if you are a phoenix and you dare to rise up from the ash a thousand eyes will smolder with jealousy while you are just flying past Picture Quote #1

We are taught to view pain as an enemy, not a teacher. But pain is the right hand of growth and transformation. Pain is in the history of all human wisdom Picture Quote #1

I know my mind is made of matter but I need to know exactly what is the matter at it’s core? Because my heart is just a muscle and simply put, it’s sore Picture Quote #1

It’s just hard to travel in the shadow of regret. In fact, it’s so hard that I actually haven’t left yet Picture Quote #1

The old farm roads a four lane that leads to the mall, and our dreams are all guillotines waiting to fall Picture Quote #1

Subtract out the impact and the fall is all you get. So here’s two beers to remember why and three more to forget Picture Quote #1

Stepped out into the cold, collar high, under the slate gray sky. The air was smoking and the streets were dry, and I wasn’t joking when I said goodbye Picture Quote #1

Don’t tell me what they did to you as though you had no choice. Tell me, isn’t that your picture? Isn’t that your voice Picture Quote #1

We’re led by denial like lambs to slaughter, serving empires of style and carbonated sugar water Picture Quote #1

No one’s gonna sympathize when we crash, they’ll say you hit what you head for, you get what you ask Picture Quote #1

I cannot name this, I cannot explain this, and I really don’t want to so just call me shameless Picture Quote #1

I would rather have these things weigh on my mind. At the end of this tunnel of guilt and shame, there must be a light of some kind Picture Quote #1

Who says I like right angles? These are not my laws, these are not my rules Picture Quote #1

How come I can pick my ears, but not my nose? Who made up that rule anyway? How can you say that’s the way it is, that’s just the way it goes, why don’t you decide fore yourself what you can do? Picture Quote #1

I use my dress to wipe up my drink, I care less and less what people think Picture Quote #1

What makes you so lavish that you can afford to spend every sober moment feeling angry and bored? Picture Quote #1

I really have been enjoying performing more lately than I have in a long time and you know, it’s all about that sort of centered feeling that I have now. You know, thanks to, not just my kid, but her father before her. You know, I have a kind of a grounding through them that I really relish, and I think is also good for my work, you know Picture Quote #1

Spring is super in the supermarkets and the strawberries prance and glow never mind that they’re all kinda tart and tasteless as strawberries go meanwhile wild things are not for sale anymore than they are for show so I’ll be outside, in love with the kind of beauty it takes more than eyes to know Picture Quote #1

We can’t afford to do anyone harm because we owe them our lives each breath is recycled from someone else’s lungs our enemies are the very air in disguise you can talk a great philosophy but if you can’t be kind to people every day it doesn’t mean that much to me it’s the little things you do the little things you say it’s the love you give along the way Picture Quote #1

And half of learning to play is learning what not to play and she’s learning the spaces she leaves have their own things to say and she’s trying to sing just enough so that the air around her moves and make music like mercy that gives what it is and has nothing to prove she crawls out on a limb and begins to build her home and it’s enough just to look around and to know that she’s not alone up up up up up up up points the spire of the steeple but god’s work isn’t done by God it’s done by people Picture Quote #1

I am not an angry girl, but it seems I’ve got everyone fooled. Every time I say something they find hard to hear, they chalk it up to my anger and not to their own fear. Imagine you’re a girl just trying to finally come clean, knowing full well they prefer you dirty and smiling Picture Quote #1

These days, I find I’m applying a little more patience to my process. If I look back on my work, I can see those songs I bailed on could have been better, that had those great two verses and then I kind of coasted from there. These days, if a song is giving me trouble, I put it aside and pick it up later, and keep doing that, for a year if I have to, until it takes shape Picture Quote #1
