About the morbid urge to gaze



- Do you know what the most frightening thing in the world is?
It's fear. So I did something very simple. Very simple...
When they felt the spike touching their throat, and knew I was going to kill them, I made them watch their own deaths.

I made them see their own terror as the spike went in.

And if death has a face, they saw that too.

Legal isso. tava mesmo a pensar, hoje quando ia andando pro trabalho, o problema da morte é o medo de perder alguém com quem você se prendeu por uma parte da sua vida. Não sei se posso categorizar como egoísmo essa tristesa, mas a gente toma posse da vida das pessoas e não queremos perdê-las... não que devemos ser frios uns com os outros.. mas que devemos viver...

You're leaving so soon
Never had a chance to bloom
But you were so quick
To change your tune
Don't look back
If I'm a weight around your neck
Cos if you don't need me
I don't need you


nada a ver com a brutalidade expressa.. sorry...
