NO LIGHT WITHOUT DARKNESS .. an assortment of quotes from season 2 of shadow and bone.

we've been framed for murder.

why is the sun so important to a privateer?

there's a whole world to see once we're not fugitives.

you think you know who you are not because you've suffered for a moment?

are you willing to sacrifice that which is most precious to you?

what you just did was impressive and also very illegal.

i have returned, and i made some new friends.

there's adventure, danger, money? now you're speaking my language.

the past informs everything. it is the wound that will not heal.

perhaps now you’re getting an inkling of what it’s like to be hunted.

you live in a single moment. i live in a thousand.

there is a cost, always, to making difficult choices.

suffering is as cheap as clay and twice as common.

it will give me some comfort to know you’re with me, in the shadows.

let’s go take down the king.

the trick is not to love anything.

being myself is a luxury I cannot often indulge.

all creatures have a weakness.

i was always honest with you with the things that matter.

i have seen what you truly are, and i have never turned away. i never will.

the problem with wanting is that it makes us weak.

you can’t unlearn that sort of hatred.

the power was angry, but it was mine, mine alone.

the whole world will hear it when I make her scream.

home. so much about it defines who you become.

this isn’t a return home; it’s a return to the scene of the crime.

who are you without your vengeance?

fight me as long as you’re able. you’ll find i have more practice with eternity.

i’m the final piece of the puzzle.

know that i loved you. know that it was not enough.

i’ll never know a love more than this.

you’re all I’ve ever wanted. you’re the whole of my heart.

you have a bad habit of acting a fool and calling it heroic.

there is no light without darkness.

without me, know that they will come for you.

if this path leads me back to you, we’ll know what we have is ours, and ours alone. choice. not destiny. choice.

there is no place for secrets when you sit upon the throne.

LOVE'S RAGE .. an assortment of lyrics from the artist ethel cain.

i love the way it feels to miss you.

'cause what's the point if you're not by my side?

can you read my mind?

i've been watching you.

i only want him if he says it first to me.

and piss him off until he hates me.

good men die too, so i'd rather be with you.

could you be someone else, if someone else is what i need?

you have tasted love and it tasted sweet.

don't sink in me with your dog teeth.

call me what you want and i'll be that.

he's mean, i'm meaner.

oh, babe, i'm too good for you and it makes me need it even more.

show me where it hurts and i'll lick better.

he's so good to me and nobody else.

i'm bad, he's worse.

i'm not scared of god, i'm scared that he was gone all along.

he hates the way you look at me.

i've loved before, i'll kill again.

everything hurts except for you.

and i like thinking i'm no different from you.

am i not good enough for you?

baby, don't you lie to me.

is there someone who has your heart that keeps you gone, away from me?

do you not love me like you did?

'cause i love you more than i thought i could.

'cause i don't hate you like i know i should.

tell me i'm no one else's but yours.

you're like an angel, nothing can touch you.

you know my weakness, but you don't know what i'd do.

i know i'm gonna lose you, but god i don't want to.

i know i don't need you, but i'm terrified of letting you go.

how am i supposed to feel good about myself when everything i do is wrong?

and we've been cursed since the start.

see it on your face, you won't change in your ways.

jesus can always reject his father, but he cannot escape his mother's blood.

trouble's always gonna find you, baby.

i've killed before and i'll kill again.

where you're still the good guy, i'll play pretend.

you wanna get my clothes off.

you're all the same, black leather and dark glasses.

he's cold-blooded so it takes more time to bleed.

something they all want that only you can have.

you wanna see me on my knees.

and if you hate me, please don't tell me.

you love blood too much.

suffer does the wolf, crawling to thee.

i am the face of love's rage.

i am no good nor evil, simply i am.

i have come to take what is mine.

i was there in the dark when you spilled your first blood.

you can't hide from me forever.

ENDLESS SUMMER PRT2 .. an assortment of lyrics by the artist miley cyrus.

let's crash a wedding tonight, get drunk by the lights.

then i'll pick a fight to make up on the floor of your room.

we danced until there was nothing left.

i wish i could crawl inside your heart.

take you captive and then sail away.

i wish i could know that it's forever.

i got a new dress just to meet you downtown.

can you walk me through the park just to show it off?

you could be the one, have the honor of my babies.

hope they have your eyes and that crooked smile.

it turns me on that you care, baby.

tonight we'll just be wrong.

we ain't gotta talk baby.

stay awhile with me.

don't deny the violet chemistry.

we could paint our names black on the marquee.

there's something between us that's too major to ignore.

may not be eternal but nocturnal nothing more.

and you smell like perfume that i didn't purchase.

you're coming around with your muddy feet.

you've watered the weeds, and you killed all the roses.

do you wanna play house?

i could be your wife.

maybe i could stay and not break your heart.

but don't forget, baby, i'm a wild card.

don't wait for me 'cause forever may never come.

loving you is never enough.

all the pain is polished.

all the tears are planned.

ENDLESS SUMMER VACATION .. an assortment of lyrics from the artist miley cyrus.

we were right 'til we weren't.

i didn't wanna lie.

started to cry, but then remembered i can buy myself flowers.

i can take myself dancing and i can hold my own hand.

yeah, i can love me better than you can.

i forgive every word you said.

i didn't wanna leave you.

i didn't wanna fight.

i know it was wrong, but never said i was sorry.

we're much older and the bone's too big to bury.

said goodbye forever, but you never unpacked.

we went to hell, but never came back.

i'm sorry that you're jaded.

you're lonely now and i hate it.

don't know when to stop, so you take it too far.

i'll change my number but keep your t-shirt.

never wanna leave this room.

we could stay like this forever, lost in wonderland.

with our heads above the clouds.

falling stupid like we're kids.

wearing rose colored lenses, pretend we'll never end.

my baby got looks that kill.

but when he smiles, i don't care about the past.

i told myself i closed that door, but i'm right back here again.

i'm not always right, but still, i ain't got time for what went wrong.

where i end up, i don't really care.

it's madness before the sadness.

get kind of reckless and have wild sex under the moon.

i got some baggage, let's do some damage.

you know i'm savage but you're looking past it.

i want that late-night sweet magic.

i want that forever-lasting love.

PINNED .. an assortment of quotes found on pinterest .

i crave touch, yet i flinch every time someone gets too close.

how quickly the blade becomes you.

rage is a promise kept.

no one can hate me more than i hate myself.

you, who opened suns in my heart.

the word "father" rotted in my mouth.

i was born in an abundance of inherited sadness.

are you praying again? how raw are your knees?

can someone please be proud of me? like, fuck, i'm trying.

there are teeth marks on everything he loves.

i have done back things. i can't take them back, and they are part of who i am.

i am not a creature that was born. i am a fire that was set.

the best way to get your heart broken is to pretend you don't have one.

[he/she/they] is in my heart and i suffer.

do you love me enough that i may be weak with you?

in the crooks of your body, i find my religion.

i was a girl gulping a woman's grief.

i have pasts inside me that i did not bury properly.

i'll see you on the other side of the war.

you said i killed you - haunt me then!

i can't tell you how piercingly and endlessly i think about you.

i love you in vain, alone, in a terrible cold.

you will love [her/him/them] to ruins.

impossible loves. i am very much afraid they can become an addiction.

maybe we exist to bleed. maybe we exist to burn.

still, there is a terrible desire to be loved.

still, there is this horror at being left behind.

i come home - and i have a feeling of a ghost returning to its haunt.

my dear, i will always be this tender for you.

i'd rather die on my feet than live on my knees.

i'm ruined by your voice's deep dark lullaby.

i think we deserve a soft epilogue, my love. we are good people and we have suffered enough.

i couldn't touch you without ruining you, so i didn't touch you at all.

you laugh like a little girl, and inside you think like a martyr.

you are not my cure, nobody has that power.

FEELING LIKE A GHOST .. an assortment of lyrics from the artist au/ra

it's making my skin crawl

the silence is so loud

and i breathe and i try to forget that i let you go

i hear you're happy and that's hard to know

i only miss you when i open my eyes

i knew you'd rip me apart

left my heart with bite marks

i gave you a knife and let you carve

nobody said it'd be simple

i'm a whole lot of work

dying to jump on the impulse but running before i get hurt

i wanna be all in, but i'm bad with emotion

'cause my heart was made to be broken

today i'm kinda feeling like a ghost

tell myself i'm fine but i don't really know

i'm just scared that i'll end up alone

you know i'm like a ghost, sometimes i have to fade

and it haunts me that i have to be this way

you say it's gone cold

i say i'll do better but i always seem to disappear again

please don't make me choose sides when you leave me

blankets when i had bad dreams

felt like nothing could hurt me, until you hurt me

i wish you had some words that wouldn't make me sick

you can't be my medicine

i know you got this feeling everyone's out to get you

somehow you're always blameless

you know you're your own assassin

it's your back that you been stabbing

don't want this fragile heart to break

we don't need good reputations

we might be the outsiders but the in-crowd is so out right now

the rise isn't worth the fall.

it is easier to be alone among so many people.

you move among them like a ghost.

you have called and i have come.

we should leave our lovers and be with one another.

we can share our secrets til they swallow one another.

i wanna see with new eyes.

i'm the ruiner of my own kingdom.

you can call me king of disappointment.

my healer told me, i should pray.

you said i'd never make it on my own.

do you feel pleasure, when i feel pain?

i'm sick of dealing with your madness.

i wish i could rearrange all the parts that bring me tears.

i see myself as a monster.

wish i could see myself the way you see me.

let me disappear.

i'm nothing special.
