"Your Face is as Mean as Your Life Has Been"

"A Pound of Flesh for Paradise"

What Isn't Simple
"You gave me a life,
Now show me how to live."
I'm the girl who wears make-up, not because she doesn't think she's pretty, but because she likes it. If I'm not wearing any make-up, it means I'm feeling particularly vulnerable that day, and I'm not going to let myself hide behind a mask.
I will never think that I am good enough for anything that I wish to do.
I will always be there for every single person I ever meet, you must remember that when you need someone.
My defenses may seem strange, they may annoy you, but it's how I survive. Please give me the same courtesy and love I give you.

Inspirations "As you get older you will gain a bit more control over everything. Don't let anyone, even your parents, break you. Find good people who care about you and surround yourself with just them. If you can't find them at first, find good music and fall into it, let it hold you until they come." -Davey Havok

"Do what you feel is right for you, no matter what. Believe in yourself, no matter how many people tell you that you're fucked up, do what you have to do. AS LONG as it doesn't infringe on other people's happiness." -A.F.I.

"I find drug use disrespectful, self-destructive, and weak. I want no part of it. I believe in complete respect for myself and others." -Davey Havok

"Personally I have never found the practice of recreational drug use appealing. In fact, I have always found the lifestyle and the people who surround it to be abhorrent. I never quite understood why anyone would risk sacrificing their bodies, minds, and relationships at the expense of a quick damaging high. I grew up in a small town and at my high school, like every high school, every one's recreation of choice was drug abuse. I never understood it. I never took part and always felt quite alone in this decision. Then one day I discovered a band called Minor Threat and realized that there were more people out there who thought like me. I was very excited to say the least, and what was more encouraging, these people were part of the oh-so self-destructive punk scene. From that day on I claimed the X. I continue to do so today because I believe the sXe philosophy is a very positive one that many people, especially young people, can benefit from greatly if they have the desire." -Davey Havok

"There's such a lack of responsibility for one's actions in the world, selfishness, and a great destruction in the way people live their lives. It's all instant gratification, and who cares how my instant gratification affects those around me, or on a small personal level or a global level. The way people treat each other is truly disgusting, and we've created an environment through advances in science and technology that allows for a very septic society to thrive. And we breed and breed, and all the wrong people breed while all the right people don't want to have children because they don't want to place them in this world." -Davey Havok
