i'll give you two:
"i think we grew up past the hangups & the evil stares, the fuck you toos & i don't cares. we would lie there in my bed. do you remember all those nights we never slept? no clothes, sweating doing all the things i never thought i'd do & i did them with you. hey, i guess i'll figure it out; the reasons why things went the way they did & why we can't accept it. we'd fall asleep, but not before we exercised the evil thing that everyone hides. we would lie there in my bed, do you remember all those nights we never slept? & even though we brought it crashing to an end, i loved it all & now i love my friend." -- the movielife.
"cos my head just aches when i think of the things that i shouldn't have done, but life is for living we all know, and i don't wanna live it alone." -- coldplay
