lyrics meme!
In case you've missed it over the last five years, I LOVE the lyrics meme, and will use pretty much any excuse to post one. So since I missed the party over at sophia_helix's, here we go:
1. And her last words/were, "I'll see you down in history"
2. Now that I'm older/my heart's colder/and I can see that it's a lie "Wake Up," The Arcade Fire (guessed by sophia_helix)
3. 'Cause we live in a house of mirrors/we see our fears in everything/our songs, faces and secondhand clothes
4. Everything you thought you had/has gone from worse to bad "My Kind of Scene," Powderfinger (guessed by mandysbitch)
5. Then you flew your Lear jet up to Nova Scotia/to see the total eclipse of the sun "You're So Vain," Carly Simon (guessed by sophia_helix)
6. But there's nothing, really, nothing to turn off/just Louise, and her lover so entwined
7. I rest my case, you always are this late/and you know how much I hate waiting around, round, round
8. As the flashbulbs burst, she holds a smile/like someone would hold a crying child
9. Well, it's the same room but everything's different/You can fight the sleep but not the dream "Weather With You," Crowded House (guessed by baby_lil with a bonus from pene)
10. I found myself face down in the ditch/booze in my hair/blood on my lips
11. I make the most of all the sadness/You'll be a bitch because you can
12. And it's not 'cause I'll be missing you/that makes me fall apart "Break Your Heart," Barenaked Ladies (guessed by sophia_helix)
13. I don't want to wonder whether you love me/I don't want to wonder whether you care
14. Hello, hello, hello, how low "Smells Like Teen Spirit," Nirvana (guessed by mandysbitch)
15. We have given our bodies to the Mexican army/but my heart and soul belong to you, my love
16. And I want to walk with you on a cloudy day/in fields where the yellow grass grows knee-high "Come Away With Me," Norah Jones (guessed by icepixie)
17. Brother, you don't need to turn me away/I was waiting down at the ancient gate
18. I hang my coat up in the first bar/There is no peace that I've found so far "Set Fire to the Third Bar," Snow Patrol (guessed by baby_lil)
19. All things go, all things go "Chicago," Sufjan Stevens (guessed by sophia_helix)
20. There will be feasting/and dancing/in Jerusalem next year "This Year," The Mountain Goats (guessed by sophia_helix)
(As you may have guessed by now, this post was pretty much just an excuse for Sophia and I to squee at one another.)
