So what songs (lyrically or musically) do you wish you could have written? For me as of this moment it is Bad Days by the Flaming Lips or Given to Fly by PJ :D

    If you want to tell people the truth, make them laugh, otherwise they'll kill you.

    Man is least himself when he talks in his own person. Give him a mask, and he will tell you the truth.
