*  ''Of all the things i've believed in, I just wanna get it over with. Tears form behind my eyes, But I do not cry.  Counting the days that pass me by.  Ive been searching deep down in my soul, Words that Im hearing Are starting to get old. Feels like Im starting all over again, The last three years were just pretend.  <br> But its not right...  And it hurts to want everything, And nothing at the same time, I want whats yours and i whats mine. And when all the stars fall I will lie awake, You're my shooting star.'' -- '''Michelle Branch'''.  (paraphrased from ''Goodbye to You'')
