More Lyrics:

I broke into a million pieces and I can’t go back, but now I’m seein’ all the beauty in the broken glass. The scars are part of me, darkness and harmony; my voice without the lies, this is what it sounds like. [What it Sounds Like - KPop Demon Hunters]

But I wonder if inside my head, I’m not just a bit different from some of my friends. These answers that come into my mind unbidden, these stories delivered to me fully written. [Quiet - Milly Shapiro]

I’m an object in motion, I’ve lost all emotion—my two legs are broken, but look at me dance. An object in motion, don’t ask where I’m going, ‘cause where i am going is right where i am. [Inertia - AJR]

What they don’t know, is your real advantage—when you live for someone, you’re prepared to die. [Do It For Her - Steven Universe]

There’s an awful lot of awful things we could be thinkin’ of, but for just one day let’s only think about love… [For Just One Day Let’s Only Think About (Love) - Steven Universe]

In the light of the day, in the dark of the night; when you’re raring to go, when you’re tired from the fight—when you’re losin’ your mind, let me give you a thought; I’m gonna be right by your side no matter what. [No Matter What - Steven Universe: The Movie]

Hey, I think I’m losing my mind now, having trouble finding a way out. Shine so bright this star’s gonna burn out. [Branded - NateWantsToBattle]

Oh, and I’m afraid that’s just the way the world works—it ain’t funny, it ain’t pretty, it ain’t sweet. Oh, and I’m afraid that’s just the way the world works—but I think that it could work for you and me, just wait and see…it’s not the end of the story… [The Story - Conan Grey]

I will send out an army to find you in the middle of the darkest night, it’s true, I will rescue you. I will never stop marching to reach you, in the middle of the hardest fight, it’s true—I will rescue you… [Rescue - Lauren Daigle]

Can’t break me, I’m not givin’ up—I gotta prove them wrong. Take your time, ‘cause I’m not taking mine, I gotta stand up strong. Voice in my head said to keep on going, don’t let ‘em see you bleed, don’t want your weakness showing. [Live Long Enough to Become the Hero - NateWantsToBattle]

Humpty Dumpty, when Humpty Dumpty, when Humpty Dumpty went down, he said “Screw it, imma smile right through it, and I’ll scream when no one’s around.” [Humpty Dumpty - AJR]

More Poetry Lines:

And we are here as on a darkling plain swept with confused alarms of struggle and flight, where ignorant armies clash by night. [Dover Beach — Matthew Arnold]

I was angry with my friend; I told my wrath, my wrath did end. I was angry with my foe; I told it not, my wrath did grow. [A Poison Tree — William Blake]

There is a pleasure in the pathless woods, there is a rapture on the lonely shore, there is society, where none intrudes, by the deep sea, and music in its roar. [There is Pleasure in the Pathless Woods — George Gordon, Lord Byron]

If I should meet thee after long years, how should I greet thee?—with silence and tears. [When We Two Parted — George Gordon, Lord Byron]

Hope is the thing with feathers that perches in the soul, and sings the tune without the words, and never stops at all, and sweetest in the gale in heard; and sore must be the storm that could abash the little bird that kept so many warm. [Hope is the Thing With Feathers — Emily Dickinson]

We can die by it, if not live by love, and if unfit for tombs and hearse our legend be, it will be fit for verse; and if no piece of chronicle we prove, we’ll build in sonnets pretty rooms; as well a well-wrought urn becomes the greatest ashes, as half-acre tombs. [The Canonization — John Donne]

We wear the mask that grins and lies, it hides our cheeks and shades our eyes,—this debt we pay to human guile; with torn and bleeding hearts we smile, and mouth with myriad subtleties. Why should the world be over-wise, in counting all our tears and sighs? [We Wear The Mask — Paul Lawrence Dunbar]

The night had a thousand eyes, and the day but one; yet the light of the bright world dies with the dying sun. The mind has a thousand eyes, and the heart but one; yet the light of a whole life dies when love is done. [The Night Has a Thousand Eyes — Francis William Bourdillon]

And all I loved, I loved alone. [Alone — Edgar Allan Poe]

I am overflowing with the words I do not have. [When It Matters — Adam Falkner]

And now that you don’t have to be perfect, you can be good. [Easy of Eden — John Steinbeck]

I don’t feel particularly proud of myself. But when I walk alone in the woods or lie in the meadows, all is well. [Letters to Friends, Family, and Editors — Franz Kafka]

Home is the place where, when you have to go there, they have to take you in. [The Death of the Hired Man — Robert Frost]

We are all just stars that have people names. [93% Stardust — Nikita Gill]

[parachutingkitten]

I feel like Lloyd is a very "yes ma'am" kinda guy. You feel me?

Like he's got an automatic 110% respect for any women in his life. He is glad to take orders when it comes from one of them. He loves pumping them up. Happy little worker bee he is.

[thestoryteller-thedreamer]

I think I might know the exact moment Lloyd learned to respect women

Nya: Why is it all sea vessels are shes?

Cole: I don't know. Because it takes a lot of paint to make them look good?

Lloyd: (Bursts into laughter)

Nya:

Do you see the terror on Lloyd’s face when he realizes who he upset??

[parachutingkitten]

I know this thread is the one blowing this post up, but I've unfortunately gotta break up the party. We know for a FACT that this scene cannot be where he learns a lesson for the future, because Lloyd has no memory of Skybound... so

[zeta13z]

i actually choose to ignore this scene all together bc not only would lloyd never laugh at a sexist joke, but im not falling for the propaganda of COLE BROOKSTONE aka mamas boy supreme making a joke like that

It will forever be strange to me that they brought the master of LIGHTNING on the UNDERWATER mission instead of COLE

[thesourcedragonofstrength]

Tbh earth ain’t much safer either

Cole could of done caused a tsunami </3

[sleepyking]

You have a point tbh

But like…in terms of usefulness element-wise while near the bottom of the ocean, Cole is the most surrounded by his element (after Nya ofc)

And if Jay uses his powers whilst underwater he’s gonna kill everyone lmao

[sleepyking]

It will forever be strange to me that they brought the master of LIGHTNING on the UNDERWATER mission instead of COLE

The fan assumption that Nya’s not as ripped as the other ninja is entirely caused by Kai (and Wu making her wear sleeves on her gi - her early outfits were sleeveless). He posts workout selfies constantly; hot workout outfit befores and sweaty afters. Inevitably the others end up in them in the background or with him. Everyone except Nya, because Kai refuses to post pictures of his sister online wearing her workout clothes or anything that might be considered hot. If she ends up in the background, he deletes the pics. That leads to the assumption that she doesn’t work out with them/is weaker.

Needless to say the eventual picture of her throwing an injured Cole over her shoulder and running went viral.
