I often find myself grasping for words - and it is only in the passages of those greater than myself that I can express my hearts true passion. Giants have given me lyrics to express what I can put into only one word: affection, anger, concern, desire, despair, ecstasy, fervor, friendship, grief, happiness, inspiration, love, melancholy, passion, pride, rage, remorse, satisfaction, sentiment, shame, sorrow, success, sympathy, tenacity, temperance, thrill, tremor, vehemence, warmth, zeal...
