&quot;Hell is empty, all the devils are here.&quot;<br /> &quot;It is not in the stars to hold our destiny, but in ourselves.&quot;<br /> &quot;Bring the drugs baby I can bring my pain.&quot;<br /> &ldquo;I would challenge you to a battle of wits, but <br /> I see you are unarmed!&rdquo; <br /> &quot;Darling you&#039;ll be okay.&quot;

We live in a hopeless, broken world.
A world with no despondency,
A world of despair.
If this is God's work of art,
then he seemed to have failed.
