Theres nothin' like complete exhaustion the atrophy of defeat. The feeling of the world upon my shoulders and realizing I am incomplete. Well, theres a lot of freedom in failure. A recklessness of weightless abandonment. I remember light coming through stained glass and it reminds me...
Recall by Brave Saint Saturn, written by Dennis Culp

"....Gaudy appartment complex A stranger with a door key explaining that I am just visiting I am finally seeing why I was the one worth leaving ...
DC sleeps alone tonight
You seem so out of context in this gaudy apartment complex A stranger with a door key explaining that I am just visiting and I am finally seeing why I was the one worth leaving The district sleeps alone tonight after the bars turn out their lights And send the autos swerving into their lonliest evening And I am finally seeing why I was the one worth leaving
The district sleeps alone tonight..."
-- The District Sleeps Alone Tonight (The Postal Service)

"...Time to gather up the splinters Build a casket for my tears... I'm haunted By the lives that I have loved I'm haunted By the promises I've made I'm haunted By the hallways in this tiny room The echoes there of me and you The voices that are carrying this tune..." -Haunted by Poe

"'...No one fights like Gaston Douses lights like Gaston In a wrestling match nobody bites like Gaston For there's no one as burly and brawny' 'As you see I've got biceps to spare' 'Not a bit of him's scraggly or scrawny' 'And every last inch of me's covered with hair!'"

(Following up with the Word hair, not the last letter...)
"Hair of gold, eyes of blue, Lips like cherry wine She's the prettiest gal i ever know and i'm gonna make her mine. Now i planned to leave on monday,
But she held me kinda tight, So i stood my ground and hung around, And then i left on friday night. Oh, hair of gold, eyes of blue, Lips like cherry wine, The prettiest gal i ever knew and i'm gonna make her mine."
~Hair of Gold, eyes of blue, Frank Sinatra
