&quot;This is how we&#039;ll dance when,<br /> When they try to take us down<br /> This is how we&#039;ll sing it.<br /> This is how we&#039;ll stand when,<br /> When they burn our houses down.<br /> This is what will be.<br /> Oh, glory.&quot;<br /> - Let the Flames Begin by Paramore

Regret can tear up your body,

lies can break through your skin.

warm words can touch your broken heart,

but was it worth all of the sin?



Now you're in your own self-indulge affliction,

a tragic heart-break addiction.

When you told those lies,

When you deceived my eyes,

When you kissed me with those murderous lips.



Mirror, mirror, on the wall,Why do you tease me,You peal my skin off.



Mirror, mirror, on the wall,Why do you tease me,You peal my skin off...

&quot;life isn&#039;t a matter of milestones, but of moments&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;experience is the name everyone gives to their mistakes.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;be as you wish to seem.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;it&#039;s better to be hated for what you are, than to be loved for what you are not.&quot;
