Dave Matthews
I was just wondering if you'd come along to hold up my head when my head won't hold on.
Dave Matthews

Dave Matthews
I'll lean on you and you lean on me and we'll be okay.
Dave Matthews

Dave Matthews
I'm a very vicious critic of myself.
Dave Matthews
So why would you care To get out of this place? You and me and all our friends, Such a happy human race. Eat, drink and be merry, For tomorrow we die.
Dave Matthews
But then there are magical, beautiful things in the world, and there's incredible acts of kindness and bravery and in the most unlikely places, and it gives you hope.
Dave Matthews
I don't want to die, obviously, but really, the wonder of life is amplified by the fact that it ends.
Dave Matthews
She feels like kicking out all the windows And setting fire to this life She could change everything about her using colors bold and bright But all the colors mix together - to grey
Dave Matthews
I swear by now I'm playing time against my troubles I'm coming slow but speeding
Dave Matthews
There's war - there's always been war, as long as most of us have been alive. There have always been people being abused, there's always been horrible things in the world. Why are we outraged? We should just be quiet and figure it out, and work it out together.
Dave Matthews
I always like to have an atlas just so that I can find things out. It's always good to have an almanac those sort of things.
Dave Matthews
I'm a fairly tormented artist, and I'm less willing to indulge myself in self-pity, outside of songwriting.
