"Those words at best were worse than teenage poetry" Inspired by lyrics

I'm going to give you some lyrics to be inspired by, and you shall write me beautiful poems, ok, lufflies?

I have a contest running purely for Nine Inch Nails lyrics if you arn't inspired by these

http://allpoetry.com/contest/show/2398755

Now, here's what you're to write from:

"Tell them how I'm defying gravity"
Idina Menzel, Wicked

"Those words at best were worse than teenage poetry"
Timberwolves in New Jersey, Taking Back Sunday

"This failure has made the creator, so would you tell him, what to do. I have lost all trust I had in you"
To rid the Disease, Opeth

"Run like the wind run to my heart, don't stop. Run to my world run to my mountain top. Don't stop"
Diamondhead, Run

"But there are dreams that can't be, and there are storms we can't weather"
I dreamed a Dream, Les Misserable

"If this is the war of the worlds, I think it's time for us to part"
Get cape, Wear cape, Fly, War of the Worlds

One name read, and nobody really cared, but the pretty little girl with a bow in her hair"
Dixie chicks, Travelling Soldier



And that's all you're getting for now

I hope it's given you food for thought and you can create me something that will leave me the way I feel after I've heard the song.

You don't have to just be inspired by the quote there, if you know the song you can write on the rest of the song also.
If you're going to quote directly, put in quotation marks please
PLEASE PUT THE SONG IN YOUR AUTHOR NOTES PLEASE

Good luck

    Well done guys! I said in in my last contest like this
    If I called this "Tell me your love problems!" I would have had so mnay more entires, but I'm glad I called it this, as I didn't get 80 people spewing out the same old rubbish about the glitter in street corners, I had 8 special poems that 8 special poets took time over and impressed me

    Well done, you're all AMAZING
