613 Entries for “themselves”

  1. All anybody cares about is themselves.
    You need a friend nobody’s there.
    You want somebody to tell you they care nobody’s there
    You want somebody to lull you to sleep with soft whispers in your ear nobody’s there
    I want somebody to kiss me in the pouring rain and tell me they can’t live without me nobody has yet.
    I thought I had that passionate love guess it was just the inevitable mirage in my desert
    Nobody cares about somebody more than themselves.
    Not me. Not you. We can deny it but you’ll stay up tonight pondering the words some sad girl you don’t even know wrote.

  3. They, themselves, pay attention only to what they project.
    Everyone knows them.
    And they know themselves only as well as they know the names of the color of nailpolish they are wearing.
    “Bride’s white.”
    “Ladyfinger pink.”
    “Night out.”
    There is no depth to them.
    There is paint and the sheen of it. Reflecting. Sparkling. Dead.

  4. they see themselves, all torn and worn out from their hard work in the field.
    They spend their days wandering about, in fear of getting caught and in hope of a better life.
    whatever happened to the good life? they themselves wondered.

  5. they, themselves, pay attention only to what they project. Everyone knows them. And they know themselves only as well as they know the names of the color of nailpolish they are wearing. There is no depth to them. There is paint and the sheen of it. Reflecting. Sparkling. Dead

  7. people eat themselves to death because they’re hungry
    and then they say theyre full so they move on to someone else
    but why dont we all cook together and stay together huh?

  8. they look at themselves, they feed themselves, they think about themselves.

    but sometimes they do not see themselves.

    what they see is what the world projected on them.

  9. they kept themselves to themselves

    and that was that.

    unlike everyone else,

    they lived alone
    
and they died alone
    
and nothing in their life was an illusion.

  10. they kept to themselves. they were themselves. a set, a unity and yet seperate from the others.

    themselves: those identical ones that are they.

  11. They were there by themselves. The crowd had the same look on their faces. It was the look of utter disappointment. They huddled together like a bunch of penguins for warmth. I can’t hear what

  12. they are themselves, popular, beautiful
    and nothing like me
    i am myself
    awkward, a little lonely yet happier than they will ever be

  13. themselves are to we they.
    ourselves, themselves,
    alone.

  14. Themselves. Nothing more nothing less. Simple yet so complex. A group, different as can be, but the same. Themselves. Nothing more could be said. Themselves.

  15. Everyones claims to be doing something for everyone else. Self-righteous, pompous attitudes of being a martyr and pulling out all the stops for the greater good. It’ll all bullshit. No one thinks or does for anyone but themselves. And the world keeps on spinning.

  16. the thing that people are when they’re together

    by Charlotte Lafferty on 11.08.2012
  17. Themselves apart were two
    too, too sad not to be a part
    of each other

    by Helen on 11.08.2012
  18. themselves are to we they.
    themselves, ourselves, together.

    by Emily on 11.08.2012
  19. They stood alone, but worked collectively

    Private school kids in their navy blue sweaters.

    What good is religion if not for creating schools?

  20. people, people, people, people who act everyday and don’t care about you. we are living a lie

    by hadira on 11.08.2012
  21. well they’re kind of themselves
    because of what they look like
    act like
    see like
    dream like
    it all rounds up and the product is
    self
    themselves
    always changing but somehow they stay trapped
    inside the same shell for all eternity
    kewl

  22. the people we love live inside their minds and like this we don’t keep them alive. we don’t live inside our heads as much as we’d like; we don’t live outside our heads as much as we pretend. the people you love are running from you, because they want to run to themselves.

  23. The twins wore matching outfits and matching bobs.
    They shared a room and shared their souls.
    Soon they realized they’d never be unique.
    Part of a set.

  24. They played by themselves because no-one else would. But they were happy alone. Opposite sides of the world with not so opposite streams of thought.

    by Ella on 11.08.2012
  25. they gave themselves cake as the sat in the dining room
    they didn’t eat the cake. it didn’t work that way.
    they gave it to themselves because they knew that there were better days
    better days when people didn’t have to think about things
    days when people could have their cake and eat it too.

  26. What are they doing there by themselves
    No one else is around them
    but everyone is around them
    why can’t i know what they’re saying
    what are they saying
    what are they saying
    ew do i want to know what they’re saying
    nevermind
    i’ll go sit by myself
    by myself
    by myself

  27. everyone is always thinking about themselves
    what about ourselves
    we all do it
    over think about them about us
    we are them
    they are us
    its stupid to think otherwise

    by isotta page on 11.08.2012
  28. without the other, not
    but alone, are still

    by k on 11.08.2012
  29. They kept to themselves. We kept to ourselves.
    And so we never, ever talked.

  30. Stop and shiver, without waiting
    for them to catch up
    Coats upon themselves
    Moscow, Russia
    the Motherland
    Understanding their cold tendencies
    How to wake up
    without frigid feet

    by Ellie on 11.08.2012
  31. They were so obsessed w/ themselves. They carried cover up, mascerra, lipstick, lip gloss, eye liner, and hair spray around w/ them every where. They kept scales in their lockers! What kind of monster does that to themselves? That is possible the most idiotic thing I have ever seen someone do. I have never understood the hype about self image. Why do we need to color all over our faces to make us “hot”. Ugh the word hot makes me want to barf. She’s hot all the guys would say, and proceed to stare at her but. I wince, and shed a tear.

  32. She wanted to be the other body parts they needed, but she couldn’t help. All she had was a trolley, a haggard look, chopsticks in her hair. And they had a few weeks to live and the same papery smiles.

    by Imogen on 11.08.2012
  33. They thought of nothing else but the cold fury displacing reality outside and how it could enter them. If only they hadnt been so selfish. But cant being good for the sake of yourself indirectly benefit everyone. themelves can be a conceptual concept

    by p on 11.08.2012
  34. again, it all of you thinking about all of you without including me, except we are all of us. nobody escapes being a part of it, but we don’t have to be because we choose not to be.

  35. They wrap jumpers, coats, scarves around themselves, keeping away winter’s cold. Somehow, no matter how many layers, the day remains just that. Cold.

    by Katherine McLennaghan on 11.08.2012
  36. Everybody’s always thinking of themselves. Themselves themselves themselves. But not today. I’m trying, today. Just keep trying.

    by Lolita on 11.08.2012
  37. They didn’t know
    That they were done for
    They did know
    That here at the end of all things
    They had nothing but themselves

    by SamSam on 11.08.2012
  38. all us but me are thinking about something. we are all of us apart of what we cannot think as one. it about you who is not me.

    by Markus Lloyd on 11.08.2012
  39. People use the word themselves and not really know what it means….the thought of themselves in opposition of ourselves what is really being said? I’m not quite sure what the form of themselves would be right now because I’m blanking on what the actual definition of the word is I have no idea how I would use it

    by Alan on 11.08.2012
  40. They themselves had not seen
    each other as the months passed
    by it seemed they were not to meet
    until that day
