Oasis: Live Forever

Maybe I don't really want to know
How your garden grows
I just want to fly
Lately, did you ever feel the pain
In the morning rain
As it soaks it to the bone

Maybe I just want to fly
I want to live I don't want to die
Maybe I just want to breathe
Maybe I just don't believe
Maybe you're the same as me
We see things they'll never see
You and I are gonna live forever

Maybe I don't really want to know
How your garden grows
I just want to fly
Lately, did you ever feel the pain
In the morning rain
As it soaks it to the bone

Maybe I will never be
All the things that I want to be
But now is not the time to cry
Now's the time to find out why
I think you're the same as me
We see things they'll never see
You and I are gonna live forever
We're gonna live forever
Gonna live forever
Live forever
Forever

"Do you believe in magic?"

"I believe in love, is that the same thing?"

"do you believe in second chances?"

"I believe in new beginnings...and moving on."

"If you have a will, is there a way?"

"If you have a will, you will make a way. I have no will, I have no dreams, no desires, no passions. There is no way out for me."

"They say the only real tragedy in life is young people going before their time."

"They don't know that the real pain is within those left behind. The tragedy is knowing that young people die."

"So there is a difference between knowing and happening?"

"In other words, ignorance is bliss."

"Should we strive for ignorance, then?"

"In order to achieve bliss? No. To become ignorant would be to forfeit the joys of accomplishment, the awe and wonder of knowledge and the pain and beauty of truth. The greatest loss would be the loss of caring. Compassion knows, feels, learns. Bliss is not only ignorant, it is oblivious."

"You said that you believe in love..."

"Everyone believes in love. It is really not that complicated. Fleeting, yes. Abstract, definitely. But love is easy to give and even cheap. Think of trust...trust is earned and built on actions. Love is built on emotions. You can not hang on to love. If people would just accept it for what it is, they would begin to appreciate it."

"Then there is a greater price for trust?"

"A relationship survives on honesty, trust and respect. Must survive on these three. Love will come and go. Honesty is a choice resulting from a sense of right action. Trust is earned. Respect is a form of honor, a duty of humanity. Love, on this earth, is not reserved for good. Evil men can love and evil things can be loved. Goodness is not found in love alone. Happiness requires more than love."

I want you just as much as I don't need you.

All I'm asking for is a little while, a chance to love, a time to smile.

I am inspired by art and driven by time...

Please don't say that I am not enough, please don't tell me to leave tonight. I want to believe that I am yours, for once, and if it takes a lie to make this love then please deceive me. I need this moment with you because I might not have another chance. I need this touch to make me feel wanted and I no longer care which way your touch wants. I need to be held together and not pushed away.
Insufficient.
Broken.
Damaged.
Heartless.
Can you look past my failures? Can you let me open up to you? Can you accept what I have to give, this all, this shadow of truth, this breath, this belief in an inner good?
If I ask you to, will you give me a reason to smile?
