“Drinking beer is easy. Trashing your hotel room is easy. But being a Christian, that's a tough call. That's real rebellion.”

“I don't want to feel you die,
but if that's the way that God has planned you
Well, I'll put pennies on your eyes.
And it will go away, see?
You've only lived a minute of your life.
I must be dreaming...
Is someone calling me? No...
I think I hear a voice,
They're outside the door!”
― Alice Cooper, Welcome to My Nightmare
