Name a character or pairing from a fandom I'm familiar with, and I'll give you a song lyric (or possibly a line of poetry) that I think fits. If you felt inspired to write something using the quote as a prompt, I would not be unhappy.Fandom list: Avatar, Chronicles of Narnia, CLAMP works, Criminal Minds,

and I cannot tell what's behind your smile
What can we find just to lift us up?
just for tonight, for a time
for the sake of us all
for a while
....
the trouble with time is it don't go back
maybe that trouble is with you and me
we are so scared of that fade to black
that we'll push, and we'll pull
and we'll do anything to be free...

I think of flying down into a sea of pins and feathers
and all other instruments of sex and god
in the belly of a black-winged bird
Don't try to bleed me
cause I've been here before
and I deserve a little more...

I will pay the bill, you taste the wine
Driving back in style, in my saloon we'll do quite nicely
Just take me back to yours, that will be fine
I THINK YOU KNOW.
I got another confession to make: I'm your fool
everyone's got their chains to break, holding you
were you born to resist, or be abused?
is someone getting the best, the best, the best, the best of you?
or are you gone and onto someone new...?
I needed somewhere to hang my head without your noose
you gave me something that I didn't have
but had no use
I swear I'll never give in, I refuse...

Who is to say who wins or who loses
I sing to myself at the end of the day
when I know what the blues is
All my mistakes have become masterpieces
I was born in the goodness of grace
because of faith, because of courage
Because of forgiveness
all my mistakes have become masterpieces
There comes a time
you must stay in the moment
while your heart's still bleeding
There comes a time
when you must walk away
though your heart's still beating
"All My Mistakes" - Teitur
(the one that placed second was "All the Things I've Done" by the Killers, but I figured you knew that one.)

that'll never see the sun shine
another inch of your life sacrificed for your brother in the nick of time
another dirty money, heaven-sent honey, turning on a dime...
Another girl with her finger on the world
singing to you what you want to hear
Another gun thrown down in surrender took away your fear
Another man there, he stands right beside you looking in the mirror
