• Broken, hopeless, headed nowhere
  Only motivation for what the dealer's supplying
  That rush, that drug, that dope
  Those pills, that crumb, that roach
  Thinkin' I would never do that, not that drug
  and growing up nobody ever does
  Until your stuck, lookin' in the mirror like I can't believe what I've become
  Swore I was goin' to be someone
  And growing up everyone always does
  We sell our dreams and our potential
  To escape through that buzz

• Come to us and quackle and quank. Relieve us of our stirrings With your fangs so sharp and bright Take this blood that's always purring. Through our hollow bones it flows To each feather and downy fluff. Quell the terrible, horrid urge that so often prinkles us, Still our dreams, make slow our thoughts Let tranquillity flood our veins. Come to us and drink your fill So we might end our pains. - The Owls at St. Aegolius calling to the bats

• Joy is sometimes a blessing, but it is often a conquest. Our magic moment help us to change and sends us off in search of our dreams. Yes, we are going to suffer, we will have difficult times, and we will experience many disappointments — but all of this is transitory it leaves no permanent mark. And one day we will look back with pride and faith at the journey we have taken.
