Dead is the new alive
Despair's the new survival

"Dead Is the New Alive"

LEMONY SNICKET
The End
There is the void known as despair
A gateway upon an emptiness endless and vast ...
I have become as the wastelands
Of unending nothingness
Now shall the night things
Fill me with their whisperings
And the shadows reveal their wisdom
NILE
"Language of the Shadows", Ithyphallic

DEAN KOONTZ

Despair is the price one pays for setting oneself an impossible aim.
