Mt Juliet, Tennessee

The smell of incense filled my nose,And a top a pile of bones was a rose.The petals were just beginning to witherYet there was not a sign of dither. Candles are lit on either side...

Now I just stare into the sun<br /> And I see everything I've done<br /> I think I could've been someone<br /> But I can't stop what has begun<br /> When everything's been said and done<br /> And there is no place left to run<br /> I think I have to be someone<br /> Now I just stare into the sun

Gerard Way: &quot;Hey, girls, you&#039;re beautiful. Don&#039;t look at those stupid magazines with sticklike models. Eat healthy and exercise. That&#039;s all. Don&#039;t let anyone tell you you&#039;re not good enough. You&#039;re good enough, you are too good. Love your family with all your heart and listen to it. You are gorgeous, whether you&#039;re a size 4 or 14. It doesn&#039;t matter what you look like on the outside, as long as you&#039;re a good person, as long as you respect others. I know it&#039;s been told hundreds of times before, but it&#039;s true. Hey, girls, you are beautiful.&quot;
