So we resort to sarcasm, cutting humor, criticism -- anything that will keep from exposing the tenderness within.

The feeling would well up inside of me, and no matter how much I loved my girl or my band or my friends or my family, when that siren song 'Go get high now' started playing in my head, I was off.
Anthony Kiedis
