love-you mean people
MATTHEW'S RULES OF SURVIVAL 1. Sometimes, the people who mean you harm are the ones who say they love you. 2. Fear is your friend. When you feel it, act. 3. Protect the little ones. 4. If you coped before, you can cope now. 5. Always remember: In the end, the survivor gets to tell the story.
love-you mean people

heart space life-and-death
Music links us humans, heart to heart...Across time and space, and life and death.
life long knows
But I know that I'm not who I was supposed to be. Who I could have been. And I know it's because I was too afraid for too long.
