People fear death even more than pain. It's strange that they fear death. Life hurts a lot more than death. At the point of death, the pain is over. Yeah, I guess it is a friend.

Everything in life is not all beautiful, not all fun. There is lots of killing and drugs. To me, a perfect album talks about the hard stuff and the fun and caring stuff.

There is no easy walk to freedom anywhere, and many of us will have to pass through the valley of the shadow of death again and again before we reach the mountaintop of our desires.

It's hard to fight when the fight ain't fair.

No one knows my struggle, they only see the trouble. Not knowing how hard it is to carry on when no one loves you.

Let me not beg for the stilling of my pain but for the heart to conquer it.
