“I often question is it so

Life’s contradictions tend to grow

Spawning the choices and the woe

But, still somehow thrives this love”

(Still Thrives This Love – k.d. lang)

“So little time

Try to understand that I'm

Trying to make a move just to stay in the game

I try to stay awake and remember my name

But everybody's changing and I don't feel the same”

(Everybody’s Changing – Keane)
