Quotes / BSoD Song

"Oh, I suddenly feel every step I've ever taken,
And my legs are lead.
And I suddenly feel every hand I've ever shaken,
And my arms are dead.
I feel every psalm that I've ever sung
Turn to wormwood, wormwood on my tongue.
And I wonder, oh, I wonder,
Was I ever really young?"

— Celebrant, Mass, "Things Get Broken"

"My mind is in darkness now! My god, I am sick! I've been used, and you knew ALL THE TIME! GOD! I'LL NEVER EVER KNOW WHY YOU CHOSE ME FOR YOUR CRIME! FOR YOUR FOUL, BLOODY CRIME! You have murdered me! You have murdered me! You have murdered me! murdered me! MURDERED ME! MURDERED ME! MURDERED ME! MURDERED ME!"

— Judas, Jesus Christ Superstar

"Then...I was inspired...now...I'm sad, and tired...after all, I've tried for three years...seems like ninety...why then am I scared to finish what I started? What You started...I didn't start it..."

—Jesus, from the same musical.

How can something so right
Feel so wrong tonight?
After all we've been through
Why do I feel I don’t know you?

—Miss Piggy about to be married to Kermit (alias Constantine), Muppets Most Wanted

I wish that it might come to pass
Not fade like all my dreams...

Just think of what my life might be
In a world like I have seen
I don't think
I can carry on...
Carry on this cold and empty life

My spirits are low in the depths of despair
My lifeblood...
...spills over...

—"Soliloquy" from 2112 by Rush

I don't need no arms around me,
And I don't need no drugs to calm me!
I have seen the writing on the wall.
Don't think I need anything at all!
No, don't think I need anything at all!
All in all, it was all just bricks in the wall!
All in all, you were all just bricks in the wall!

—Pink Floyd, The Wall, "Another Brick in the Wall, Part III"

I float in a boat in a raging black ocean
Low in the water and nowhere to go
The tiniest lifeboat
With people I know

Cold, clammy, and crowded, the people smell desperate
We'll sink any minute so someone must go
The tiniest lifeboat
With the people I know

Everyone's pushing, everyone's fighting
Storms are approaching, there's nowhere to hide
If I say the wrong thing, or I wear the wrong outfit
They'll throw me right over the side!

I'm hugging my knees, and the captain is pointing -
Well, who made her captain?! ...Still, the weakest must go...
The tiniest lifeboat
Full of people I know

The tiniest lifeboat
Full of people I know...

—Heathers, "Lifeboat"

Sound the bugle now
Tell them I don't care
There's not a road I know
That leads to anywhere
Without a light, I fear that I will
Stumble in the dark
Lay right down and decide
Not to go on...

—Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron, "Sound the Bugle"

There is no one else who can carry me to the end of time
There is no one left who can wake me up from this fate of mine
No crown to wear, no song to sing
Now my skin is thin, so let me in
My armor is down, so you can begin

Please wash the hurt away from
Please wash the hurt away from
Please wash the hurt away from me!

—Arlo Beauregard, Arlo the Alligator Boy, "Wash the Hurt Away"

All of my life has been searching the words of poets, and saints, and prophets and kings;
And now at the end, all that I know that I've learned is all that I know is I don't know a thing!
So easy to close off, place the blame outside.
Hiding in my room at night, so terrified.
All the things I could've been, but never had the nerve!
Life and love, I don't deserve!
So, all right! All right! I've had my time!
Close my eyes, let the death bells chime!
Bury me in burgundy, I just don't care!
Nothing's left, I looked everywhere!
Is this how I die?! Was there any other way my life could be?!
Is this how I die?! Such a storm of feelings inside of me...

— Pierre Bezhukov, Dust and Ashes from Natasha, Pierre, and The Great Comet of 1812

I wish I could reverse, reverse
And stop the hourglass
Because the Earth is spinning 'round the sun too fast
A dead end awaits this pointless track
I'm thinking I might get off
And just turn back

—Jhariah, "Reverse"

Out among the stars I sail way beyond the moon
In my silver ship I sailed to a dream that ended too soon
Now I know exactly who I am and what I'm here for
And I will go sailing no more

All the things I thought I'd be, all the brave things I'd done
Vanished like a snowflake with the rising of the sun
Never more to sail my ship where no man has gone before
And I will go sailing no more

But no, it can't be true, I could fly if I wanted to
Like a bird in the sky
If I believed I could fly
Why, I'd fly!

Clearly, I will go sailing... no more.

—Toy Story ^note From the perspective of Buzz Lightyear, having found out that he's just a toy as opposed to the Space Ranger he thought he was, "I Will Go Sailing No More"

I have to find a way
To make this all okay
I can't believe this small mistake
Could have caused so much heartache
Oh, why?
Oh, why?

Something is wrong, it's plain to see
This isn't how it's meant to be
And you can't see it like I do
It's not the life that's meant for you
Oh, why?
Oh, why?

Losing promise
I don't know what to do
Seeking answers
I fear I won't get through to you

I'll try...
And I'll try...
I'll try...
And I'll try...

—Twilight Sparkle, My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic, "Find a Way"
