And the sun will set for you

- Shadow of the Day by Linkin Park

Theory
Into love and out again,
     Thus I went and thus I go.
Spare your voice, and hold your pen:
     Well and bitterly I know
All the songs were ever sung,
     All the words were ever said;
Could it be, when I was young,
     Someone dropped me on my head?

- Dorothy Parker
