| I know what we would do without them, cry ourselves to sleep every night and pray for god to kill us painlessly while we sleep so that we could end our horrible lives. JJ, I'd probabaly be really really sad but I'd eventually get over it and go listen to Thursday. | |

| well here is the original poem by C.S. Lewis: As the Ruin Falls All this is flashy rhetoric about loving you I've never had a selfless thought since I was born I am mercenary and self-seeking through and through I want God, you, all friends merely to serve my turn Peace, reassurance, pleasure are the goals I seek I cannot crawl one inch outside my proper skin I talk of love, a scholar's parrot may talk greek but, self-imprisoned, always end where I begin Only that now you have taught me, but how late my lack, I see the chasm and everything you are was making my heart into a bridge, by which I might get back from exile and grow man... and now the bridge is breaking For this I bless you as the ruin falls the pains you give me are more precious than all other gains. _C. S. Lewis_ this poem (and song) is about how a man was with a woman for a while and all he ever thought about was himself..."i spoke of love, a scholars parrot may talk greek", finally, in the thrice song part, (only now that....) he finally realizes what he has been lacking. but its too late. he thanks her, now, for teaching him about love. he does this saying "for this i bless you as the ruin falls, the pain you bring, far greater than all other gains" | |
