To young to hold on and to old to just break free and run.
The Smiths hasn't been equaled. That goes for the composition of the songs, the lyrics, and the performance.
Words are really beautiful, but they're limited. Words are very male, very structured. But the voice is the netherworld, the darkness, where there's nothing to hang onto. The voice comes from a part of you that just knows and expresses and is.
