I'm bored TL, and so, I've decided to ask you some riddles and see who can answer them ^_^

Some of these are pretty easy if you're into fantasy literature.

Rules:
-Put the number of the riddle you're answering before the answer (obviously)
-No cheating. Please don't look up the answer's and post them, other people may want to actually figure them out on their own without reading your cheat filled post
-Have fun!

1)Falls yet flies, and dances without feet. Rusted as iron, bright as gold, and greener than the seas. What is it?
2)Voiceless it cries. Wingless it flutters. Toothless bites. Mouth-less mutters. What is it?
3))Short or long. Reads, not sings. Can know what's true and still be wrong. What is it?
4))Cannot be seen. Cannot be felt. Cannot be heard. Cannot be smelt. It lies behind stars and under hills. And empty holes it fills. It comes first, and follows after. Ends life, and kills laughter. What is it?
5)What can burn the eyes, sting the mouth, yet be consumed?
6)What is it, the more you take, the more you leave behind?
7)Why is a Pencil like a Riddle?
8)What is the beginning of eternity, the end of time and space; the beginning of every end, and the end of every race?
9)Sometimes I am loud, and viewed with distaste. Poke out my "eye", then I'm on the front of your face.
10)By Moon or by Sun, I shall be found. Yet I am undone, if there's no light around.
11)My life is often a volume of grief, your help is needed to turn a new leaf. Stiff is my spine and my body is pale, but I'm always ready to tell a tale.
12)My maker never wants me, my buyer never uses me, my user never sees me. What am I?

Edit: A joke that actually a riddle.

I'm impressed.
And the answer to 7 is sorta up to interpretation I suppose, since all the different answer's I've seen work.
