“POSSIBILITY There's a possibility There's a possibility All that I had was all I'm gon' get There's a possibility There's a possibility All I gon' get is gon' be yours then All I gon' get is gon' be yours still So tell me when you hear my heart stop You're the only one that knows Tell me when you hear my silence There's a possibility I wouldn't know Know that when you leave Know that when you leave By blood and by me You walk like a thief By blood and by me And I fall when you leave So tell me when you hear my heart stop You're the only one that knows Tell me when you hear my silence There's a possibility I wouldn't know So tell me when my sigh's over You're the reason why I'm closed Tell me when you hear me fallin' There's a possibility it wouldn't show By blood and by me And I'll fall when you leave By blood and by me I follow your lead”

“My lyrics are a big pile of contradictions. They split down the middle between very sincere opinions and feelings that I have and sarcastic and hopefully humorous rebuttals towards cliché' bohemian ideals that have been exhausted for years. I mean it seems like there are only two options for songwriters - either they are sad, tragic visionaries like Morrisey or Michael Stipe or Robert Smith or there's the goofy, nutty white boy - hey let's party and forget about everything people like Van Halen or all that other heavy metal crap. I mean I like to be passionate and sincere, but I also like to have fun and act like a dork.”

“It doesn’t seem like Christmas. I cannot say just why. I see the gifts and mistletoe and snowflakes falling from the sky. It doesn’t feel like Christmas. Though snow is on the ground. I watch old Rudolph, Frosty too. I serve hot cocoa all around. But still it doesn’t feel like Christmastime. There’s something missing, something more sublime. My heart tells me this holiday was meant to make me feel something deeper, something warm and real. It doesn’t sound like Christmas. The air is filled with noise. I hear a thousand loud requests yet see unhappy girls and boys. It doesn’t feel like Christmas. Though Santa’s on his way. So why this dullness in my heart as if it’s just another day? It really doesn’t feel like Christmastime. There’s something missing, something more sublime. My heart tells me this holiday was meant to make me feel something deeper, something warm and real. I close my eyes, I bow my head, and drop down to my knees. I talk to God and bear my soul. At length, my spirit warms with peace. It feels much more like Christmas. My heart o’er flows with love. I look at you through caring eyes, the way God sees from up above. It surely is like Christmas. Good will pervades my soul. For Christ was born in Bethlehem to ransom all; my joy is full. It’s starting now to feel like Christmastime. My heart is new, my outlook more sublime. I’ll love the world as God loves me and practice charity. Help and comfort, share with those in need, and it will feel like Christmastime indeed.”

“There is a place where the sidewalk ends And before the street begins, And there the grass grows soft and white, And there the sun burns crimson bright, And there the moon-bird rests from his flight To cool in the peppermint wind. Let us leave this place where the smoke blows black And the dark street winds and bends. Past the pits where the asphalt flowers grow We shall walk with a walk that is measured and slow, And watch where the chalk-white arrows go To the place where the sidewalk ends. Yes we'll walk with a walk that is measured and slow, And we'll go where the chalk-white arrows go, For the children, they mark, and the children, they know The place where the sidewalk ends.”

“Life's funny like that." "A laugh a minute." She put on Danny Boy so I could sing it again. But if you fall as all flowers'er dying, And you are, as dead you well may be, I'll come and find the place where you are lying, And kneel and say an ave there for thee. but come ye back when summer's in― The second time through made me terribly sad. "send me letters from wherever it is you're going," she said, touching me.”

“সময় বলেনি আমাকে কিছু আমিও ছেড়েছি তার হাত তবুও ভুলে যাওয়া সন্ধ্যায় স্মৃতির আচমকা উৎপাত সেই যে দিনগুলো, বন্ধু আমাদের পুরোনো ঘরবাড়ি পুরোনো পৃষ্ঠার দেওয়ালে ধূসর অক্ষরদের সারি আঙুলে লেগে আছে জল জলের ভিতরে শুধু দৃশ্য সেই যে দিনগুলো, বন্ধু হয়েছে আজ অস্পৃশ্য তবুও ছুঁয়ে ছুঁয়ে দেখছি আমার এই গিটারের ছন্দ কেউ তো জানলো না কিচ্ছু পুরোনো বৃষ্টির গন্ধ কুয়াশা কাটবে কিনা জানিনা আমি তো পাল্টে গেছি সেই কবে আমি তো ভুলে গেছি সবকিছু কী হবে মনে রেখে কী হবে? সময় বলেনি আজও আমাকে কীভাবে সন্ধ্যেগুলো রাত্রি হয় আজকে একলা আমি এই রাতে নিজেকে ধীরে ধীরে করছি ক্ষয় আমি তো পাল্টে গেছি সেই কবে তবুও ছুঁয়ে ছুঁয়ে দেখছিলাম আমি তো ভুলে গেছি সবকিছুই কী হবে মনে রেখে কী হবে?

“JAMIE'S SONG 'UN-BROKE': Un-broke and, All is well. I did not expect that. Unspoken, All I felt. I should not have done that. But now that is all behind me. Something else, something more defines me. I could be scattered all over the world again, And I would still be me. Find my way back here again. Though I don’t think that could happen, I feel so unbreakable, Now that I am un-broke. Like the wind, I floated. I could not change one thing. Like the trees, I stood there. Branches swayed bare in Spring. My darkest days are behind me. Blinding sun and stars always find me. I could be shattered into the abyss again, But I would still be free. Climb out of the hole again. I’ll see the skies that never darken. I know I’m unbreakable, Now that I am un-broke.”

“This is how it works: you're young until you're not. You love until you don't, you try until you can't, you laugh until you cry, you cry until you laugh. And everyone must breathe until their dying breath. This is how it works: you peer inside yourself, you take the things you like and try to love the things you don't. And then you take that love you make and stick it into someone else's heart pumping someone else's blood.”
