If I brought you up to respect curfews, would you cut me some slack? Are you a suave reflection of a bad man walking backwards? At the edge of a scream is there no turning back? Oh how singing in silence can bring on appendicitis But they don't know because they refuse to join me in the wreckage This free site is ad-supported.
