- Story
Woke up in a bad place, should probably get up so I'm not late. Stared at my phone for the past eight minutes at nothing, my head aches. Bottle's empty by the lampshade, I'm out of Excedrin again, great. Too early to tell, but at this rate, I'm thinkin' this might be a bad day.
MuteMath
- Achilles Heel
I'm a man on a mission, working hard for the vision. I preach love all around, but I can't get these clowns to listen. I will die as a martyr, a brimstone firestarter, and proud to burn down the town, to drown it in the baptismal water.
Prasant Patel
- Back of my mind
Whenever I'm typing there's always something going on in the back of my mind. Should I be focusing on one-two words ahead of what I'm typing or just keep my full focus on the current word? Either way, the thing of utmost priority to me is accuracy. I get extremely pissed upon seeing that red alert, the time you make a mistake. What's even more strange is a word like interesting is relatively more convenient to type than a word like poll all because the pinky finger is a bottleneck.

- Journey called life
We tend to compare ourselves to people around us. Some got married, some started their careers. And we feel small with our life. But please remember that you are doing your best, as long as you're moving forward. No matter the speed.

- Seeking Truth
We walk into our living rooms. We flop down on our comfy couches and flip on the news. We listen and believe every word that comes to our ears. But I challenge you friend to look a little deeper than what comes from that black box in your living room. To look a little deeper into the stories you hear and to decide to do your own investigation from time to time and see if the people claiming to "bring you the truth" are really doing their job. And be that educated human who does their part.

- Northern Downpour
The ink is running toward the page, it's chasing off the days. Look back at both feet and that winding knee. I missed your skin when you were east; you clicked your heels and wished for me. Through playful lips made of yarn, that fragile Capricorn unraveled words like moths upon old scarves. I know the world's a broken bone, but melt your headaches call it home.
DragonForce
- Through the Fire and Flames
So now we fly ever free, we're free before the thunderstorm. On towards the wilderness our quest carries on. Far beyond the sundown, far beyond the moonlight. Deep inside our hearts and all our souls. So far away, we wait for the day. For the lives all so wasted and gone. We feel the pain of a lifetime lost in a thousand days, through the fire and the flames we carry on.

- Maybe it's because
I had a thought the other day. It was eye-opening and profound to me, although it may not be for you. I wanted to add it here because I see quotes here from users that have helped me, so maybe this will help others. I don't know if it will be approved or whatever, but here it is... When everything around you starts to smell like shit, maybe it's because you're an asshole. I was the asshole.
RuneScape
- Darkness and light, evil and good
Do not confuse darkness and light with evil and good. Real life does not deal in absolutes, not extremes. All life falls on a spectrum, and all life has capacity for both good and evil. Judge me only by my actions and my words, not by the words of others.
Trevor Ackerman
- My Own Thoughts
I know this may be a bit too easy for some but I felt that this would be a good way to tell everyone how I think the world operates. You are more to everyone than you are to yourself. And don't get me wrong, you are a lot, but you will always mean more to someone than to yourself. Try to find a good balance for that.

- Dream - The Pied Pipers
Dream when you're feeling blue. Dream, that's the thing to do. Just watch the smoke rings rise in the air, you'll find your share of memories there, so dream. When the day is through, dream, and they might come true. Things never are as bad as they seem, so dream.
Yoshihiro Togashi
- Hunter x Hunter
When I torture someone, I expect him to hate me for the rest of his life. A man in pain cannot suppress the hostility in his eyes towards his perpetrator. But Gon showed no hint of hatred even after I broke his arm.
RuneScape
- Zaros on the god of order
He is self-righteous, seeing things only in extremes. It was from him that I first learned of the notions of good and evil. I dismiss such notions - there are only actions and consequences. We agreed to disagree. Everything to him is either black or white, but he himself exists in the grey. Ergo, he is a contradiction.
RuneScape
- Zaros: All gods rally followers
All gods rally followers to them, whether they mean to or not. Mortals cannot help themselves. Some gods take advantage of this. In my youth, I was guilty of this. When I arrived, there were many young gods carving out territory, engaged in petty skirmishes and border disputes. I sought to unify them under my banner, but they... resisted.

- The Red Means I Love You - Madds Buckley (pt2)
Unfortunate. They say such a shame that I turned out this way; A maniac. Well, yeah I get manic when I cause a panic, and of course I get excited when I see you around. Because, my insides are red and yours are too.

- The Red Means I Love You - Madds Buckley
My insides are red, and yours are too, and the red on my face is matching you. And, goodness, you're bleeding. What a wonderful feeling. You're down and you're pleading. My head is just reeling. The red means I love you.
Bo Burnham
- Socko’s verse - How the World Works
The simple narrative taught in every history class is demonstrably false and pedagogically classist. Don't you know the world is built with blood, and genocide, and exploitation? The global network of capital essentially functions to separate the worker from the means of production, and the FBI killed Martin Luther king! Private property's inherently theft, and neoliberal fascists are destroying the left, and every politician, every cop on the street protects the interest of the—

- Ride
I just wanna stay in the sun where I find, I know it's hard sometimes. Pieces of peace in the sun's peace of mind, I know it's hard sometimes. Yeah, I think about the end just way too much, but it's fun to fantasize. On my enemies I wouldn't wish who I was, but it's fun to fantasize.
Nicki Minaj
Could I get that 'tron? Could I get that Remy? Could I get that Coke? Could I get that Henny? Could I get that margarita on the rock-rock-rocks? Could I get that salt all around that rim, rim- rim-rim? Trey, I was like, "Yo, Trey" Do you think you could buy me a bottle of Rosé?
