Done so many evil things in the name of love, it's a crying shame. I never did see no fire that could put out a flame.

Last night I danced with a stranger, but she just reminded me you were the one.

I hate myself for loving you and the weakness that it showed. You were just a painted face on a trip down to suicide road.

Most songs have bridges in them, to distract listeners from the main verses of a song so they don't get bored. My songs don't have a lot of bridges because lyric poetry never had them.

Sing your praise of progress and the doom machine, the naked truth is still taboo whenever it can be seen.

[Bob] Dylan's broken-heart songs are so much better. Like "Simple Twist of Fate".

Once you think you know the song, then you have go and see how other people have done it.
