― arctic monkeys, 505
"I cannot play with you. I'm not tamed. ― Tame means to establish ties. To me, you're still nothing more than a little boy, who's just like a hundred thousand other little boys. And I have no need of you. And you have no need of me! To you, I'm nothing more than a fox like a hundred thousand foxes. But if you tame me, then we shall need eachother."
― the fox, the little prince

"Black hole opened in the kitchen. Every clock's a different time. It would only take the energy to fix it. I don't know why I am the way I am; Not strong enough to be your man. I tried, I can't stop staring at the ceiling fan and spinning out about things that haven't happened. Breathing in and out."
― boygenius, not strong enough
"I'm gonna kill you, yeah, you gonna kill me too! Gonna leave a little note, just a little black poem. Gonna say true love is just a good bad joke! Try to get out, but we just keep stickin' around.
'Cause it is a very good bad thing we've found."
― mother mother, very good bad thing
"Mommy did it, Daddy did it, even though I bet they wish they really didn't! Mary did it, Joey did it, even little bitty baby Jesus did it. Yuppies do it, junkies do it, funny little monkeys in the zoo do it. Stupid does it, the foolish do it, only the unlucky of us get to do it! Let's fall in love."
― mother mother, let's fall in love
"Oh, and you rip my ribcage open and devour what's truly yours, and our screaming joins in unison, I cry out to the Lord. 'Cause if we join our hands in prayer enough, to God, I imagine it all starts to sound like applause."

"Baby, you're a vampire. You want blood and I promised. I'm a bad liar with a savior complex. All the skeletons you hide, show me yours and I'll show you mine."
― phoebe bridgers, savior complex
"No longer a danger to herself or others. She made up her mind and laced up her shoes. Yelled down the hall, but nobody answered. So she walked outside without an excuse. She can do anything she wants to. She can do whatever she wants to do. She could go home, but she's not going to."
― phoebe bridgers, graceland too

"While I'd not yet found my bearings, those it girls hit the ground comparing the way I was, to the way she was, sayin' I'm not stylish enough, and I cry too much! And I listened because I hadn't found my own voice yet. So all I could hear was the noise that people make when they don't know shit. But I didn't know that yet."
― fiona apple, fetch the bolt cutters
"And I know, when I go, all my particles disband and disperse and I'll be back in the pulse. And I know none of this will matter in the long run, but I know a sound is still a sound around no one. And while I'm in this body, I want somebody to want and I want what I want and I want you to love me."
― fiona apple, i want you to love me
"You didn't see my valentine. I sent it via pantomime. While you were watching someone else, I stared at you and cut myself. That's all I'll do cause I'm not free. A fugitive too dull to flee. I'm amorous but out of reach; A still life drawing of a peach. I'm a tulip in a cup. I stand no chance of growing up. I've made my peace, I'm dead, I'm done. I watch you live to have my fun. I root for you, I love you."
― fiona apple, valentine
