‘Trans-Siberian Orchestra: The Lost Christmas Eve’ Album Lyric Starters
Feel free to change pronouns or restructure sentences as needed.
The Lost Christmas Eve
“On a street in the night, in the cold winter’s light,  child stands alone and she’s waiting.”
“And the light that’s out there, it just hangs in the air, as if it was just hesitating.”
“For here in this city of lights, this evening awakens the dreams that it might.”
“The winter it conjures the spells it will weave.”
“In this scene, on this night, there’s an ancient hotel where shadows, they do tend to wander.”
“And the ghosts that live here hold each moment so dear.”
“For time’s not a thing one should squander.”
“It can be wished upon till the moment it’s gone, like day disappears into evening.”
“Through this night the dream still wanders as it was meant to be, and every year this night grows fonder.”
“Windows of frosted ice, prisming candlelight, and somehow we start to believe.”
“In the depths of a night that’s about to begin, with the feeling of snow, as it melts on your skin, and it covers the land with a dream so intense that it returns us all to a child’s innocence.”
“And then what you’d thought lost and could never retrieve, is suddenly there to be found on Christmas eve.”
Christmas Dreams
“For in the dead of the night, gathering light, Christmas dreams.”
“I want to wrap all my moments around her.” 
“I want to watch as she glitters the night, floats her dreams in the air.”
“People watch, children stare, at these tears of captured light.”
“Then it falls through the air of a winter’s sky till it captures a dream and it’s crystallized.”
“Let it go! Let it go! This old world that I know.”
“For soon everything will be changing, in a single glance, where it all enchants and every hope is worth saving.”
“Every hope is worth saving.”
Christmas Nights In Blue
“Just another night in [city name].”
“Snow comes down, looks real pretty.”
“Don’t know how but suddenly there you are.”
“Inside here, lights are low, but each song has its own glow.”
“You just can’t believe he’s really there.”
“Knows every song that Christmas got, even ones my brain has dropped.”
“Can’t believe but suddenly there you are, talking with strangers sittin’ cross the bar.”
“Suddenly, all are laughin’.”
“This night’s smart, always craftin’.”
“I got a drop dead simple childhood view of salvation.”
“Perhaps that’s how it was always meant to be.”
“And the more I add up all this information, it seems it all comes down in the end to you and me.”
“And a childhood prayer should never be denied.”
“And on this tree the lights are done, but the colors here are down one.”
What Is Christmas?
“What is Christmas? Could someone tell me that?”
“What is Christmas? Surely, I don’t know.”
“Everywhere there’s lights, who needs to color night?”
“Could this whole thing be planned?”
“I do not understand this Christmas.”
“Trees with colored lights, underneath they still are only trees.”
“Do you think that one day perhaps they might find that Christmas  is kind of a disease?”
“Every year it’s waiting for me.”
“Every year it constantly defies – placing strangers there before me, spreading hope and cheer mixed in with happiness, fraternal bliss and other Christmas lies!”
“And there’s one more thing that I have discovered and I would now like you to know…”
“The reason for Christmas, I now realize, is an excuse to tolerate snow.”
“Snow! I don’t even like the sound of it.”
“Candles everywhere, a fire hazard any other day. Children light them, no one seems to care.”
“Every year it returns here and every year it’s waiting for me.”
“Why can’t Christmas disappear and just pretend it never saw me?”
“Every year I get my hopes up that it will somehow just leave, but every year i wake to find that once again it now is Christmas eve.”
Back To A Reason
“Got to get back to a reason.”
“Got to get back to a reason I once knew.”
“And this late in the seasons, one by one distractions fade from view.”
“Is your life the same?”
“Do ghosts cry tears? Do they feel years?”
“I’m looking for you.”
“I’m looking for I don’t know what.”
“I can’t see there anymore and all my time’s been taken.”
“Is this what it seems? The lure of a dream.”
“And I’m afraid to walk back through that door to find that I’ve awakened.”
“The parts of my life I’ve tried to forget, it’s gathered each piece and carefully kept.”
“The only reason i have left is you.”
What Child Is This?
“What child is this, who laid to rest, that I now find here sleeping?”
“Do angels keep the dreams we seek while our hearts lie bleeding?”
“Could you be this old and have your life just begin?”
“It begins.”
“Tell me how many times can this story be told?” After all of these years it should all sound so old.”
“But it somehow rings true in the back of my mind as I search for a dream that words can no longer define.”
Different Wings
“Dream, child, as childhood wants to do.”
“Dream all this night will allow.”
“Dream with an angel’s view out there safe in your clouds.”
“Wait for me now.”
“Stars have been rumored to see dreams within newborn eyes, and in their arms I believe they do keep safe until you arise.”
“I will be there for you no matter what tomorrow may bring.”
“This I will vow, I will be there.”

🚪 ( for Leilani maybe?)
my muse shows up on your muse’s doorstep generator // accepting 
9. covered in bruises
Tumblr media
“Um... I can explain?” Leilani said, standing at the door. She looked like she had been in a fight, though aside from the bruises she appeared OK, “I was gonna go to mom, but then I knew she’d freak out. And dad too, honestly. Then I was gonna ask Kath for help, but she’s stuck in the courthouse... I just really need to get some ice. Can I come in, please?”

The World’s End starters
Starters from the 2013 film The World’s End.
You know what your problem is? You’re never wrong.
Please take your DMs off the sofa.
I’m right, aren’t I?
Let’s Boo-Boo!
To err is human so… err…
My Mum could be dead… for reals this time!
They told me when to go to bed! Me!
I got help. You know what help was? Help was a bunch of people sitting in a circle talking about how fucking awful things had got.
That is not my idea of a good time.
It’s about closure.
WTF?
You need help.
Of course I fucking care!
Is it a door? It hasn’t got a lintel.
Who’s the helmet without the helmet?
You sold my guitar to buy drugs.
I’m not your bassplayer anymore.
SHOTS! S-H-O-T-S! SHOTS!
Bottling up past trauma can lead to inadequate coping mechanisms in later life… apparently.
Look at these cunts!
Have you got any drugs?
Haven’t you heard? We’re getting the band back together.
I always land on my feet.
Climb down the drain pipe!
Get back in your rocket and fly off back to Legoland, you cunts!
Must be the network.
Haha, King Gay!
He may be a bit of a cock! But he’s my cock!
Hey, it is our basic human right to be fuck ups!
Oo, get you, fuck machine!
What the fuck does WTF mean?
We wanna be free to do what we wanna do!
We wanna get loaded.
We wanna have a good time.
It’s pointless arguing with you.
Fuck it.
A man of your legendary prowess drinking fucking rain? It’s like watching a lion eating some hummus.
Oh fuck off, you big lamp!
I haven’t had a drink in 16 years.
You must be thirsty, then.
Drink up.
I fucking know what I fucking said!
Humans aren’t perfect, and guess what? I ain’t perfect!
Hey, who put you in charge? Who are you to criticise anyone?
How can you tell if you’re drunk if you’re never sober?
I don’t wanna be sober.
That was supposed to be the beginning of my life! All that promise and fucking optimism.
It was a big lie. Nothing happened.
I fucking hate this town!
Wow, you really do have a selective memory, don’t you?
We’re not your friends, we’re just your fucking enablers.
That’s a funny word isn’t it? Enabler.
That’s a good name for the band, you should write that down.
If it isn’t the fucking three musketeers!
Face it, we are the human race and we don’t like being told what to do.
Oo, steady on, you alchy!
Ever have one of those nights that starts out like any other but ends up being the best night of your life?
We’re going to see this through to the bitter end. Or lager end.
You remember the Friday nights, I remember the Monday mornings.
You don’t need our help to get fucked up. You’ve done a perfectly good job so far on your own.
You don’t have to do this.
Oh crumbs!
You are out of your mind.
I do something right for a change and you fuckers get on my case!
I said I did something right!
Yeah, for a change. Meaning the rest of the time you’re wrong.
There is a reason I am angry at you!
You fight for what’s important.
It’s all I’ve got!
Your reliance on profanity is a measure of your immaturity as a man.
Who the hell do you think you are?

(     *     ‘SALEM’S LOT PROMPTS   !    
——     stephen king.
❛  alone. yes, that’s the key word, the most awful word in the english tongue.  ❜
❛  the basis of all human fears. a closed door, slightly ajar.  ❜
❛  crying was like pissing everything out on the ground.  ❜
❛  there are no words for childhood’s dark turns and exhalations.  ❜
❛  a child who counts the cost is a child no longer.  ❜
❛  if a fear cannot be articulated, it cannot be conquered.  ❜
❛  the only thing more natural than death was sex.  ❜
❛  at three in the morning the blood runs slow and thick, and slumber is heavy.  ❜
❛  if a man dethrones god in his heart, satan must ascend to his position.  ❜
❛  the bestiality of the night rises on tenebrous wings. the vampire’s time has come.  ❜
❛  it would have been better if there had been pain. pain was at least real.  ❜
❛  there is every possibility that some of us, or all of us, may live and triumph.  ❜
❛  the act of moving forward at all became heroism.  ❜
❛  in the midst of life, we are in death.  ❜
❛  horror is destroyed by boredom. love is a dream.  ❜
❛  the town cares for devil’s work no more than it cares for god’s or man’s.  ❜
❛  it knew darkness. and darkness was enough.  ❜
❛  we’d all be scared if we knew what was swept under the carpet of each other’s minds.  ❜
❛  there is no life here but the slow death of days.  ❜
❛  it is almost as though the town knows the evil was coming and the shape it would take.  ❜
❛  it seems the more you have the more aggressive you become.  ❜
❛  without faith, the cross is only wood, the bread baked wheat, the wine sour grapes.  ❜
❛  houses absorb the emotions that are spent in them.  ❜
❛  the people elected me. but who elected the people?  ❜
