the boy who blocked his own shot, by brand new. (not full lyrics)
--it's cold as a tomb, and it's dark in your room
when i sneak to your bed to pour salt in your wounds
so, call it quits or get a grip
say you wanted a solution, you just wanted to be missed
call me a safe bet, i'm betting i'm not
i'm glad that you can forgive
i'm only hoping as time goes, you can forget
so, you can forget
you can forget
you are calm and reposed, let your beauty unfold
pale white, like the skin stretched over your bones
spring keeps you ever close
you are second hand smoke
you are so fragile and thin, standing trial for your sins
holding onto yourself the best you can
you are the smell before rain
you are the blood in my veins
call me a safe bet, i'm betting i'm not
i'm glad that you can forgive
i'm only hoping as time goes, you can forget.

i will follow you into the dark, by death cab for cutie.
love of mine, some day you will die
but i'll be close behind
i'll follow you into the dark
no blinding light or tunnels to gates of white
just our hands clasped so tight
waiting for the hint of a spark
if heaven and hell decide
that they both are satisfied
illuminate the no's on their vacancy signs
in Catholic school as vicious as Roman rule
i got my knuckles bruised by a lady in black
and i held my tongue as she told me
"son, fear is the heart of love"
so, i never went back
if heaven and hell decide
that they both are satisified
illuminate the no's on their vacancy signs
if there's no one beside you
when your soul embarks
then i'll follow you into the dark
you and me have everything to see
from bangkok to calgary
and the soles of your shoes are all worn down
the time for sleep is now
it's nothing to cry about
'cause we'll hold each other soon
in the blackest of rooms
if heaven and hell decide
that they both are satisified
illuminate the no's on their vacancy signs
if there's no one beside you
when your soul embarks
then i'll follow you into the dark
then i'll follow you into the dark.

possession, by sarah mclachlan.
listen as the wind blows
from across the great divide
voices trapped in yearning
memories trapped in time
the night is my companion
solitude my guide
would i spend forever here
and not be satisfied
and i would be the one
to pull you down
kiss you so hard
i'll take your breath away
and after i'd wipe away your tears
just close your eyes, dear
through this world i've stumbled
so many times betrayed
trying to find an honest word
to find the truth enslaved
you speak to me in riddles
and you speak to my in rhymes
my body aches to breathe your breath
your words keep my alive
and i would be the one
to hold you down
kiss you so hard
i'll take your breath away
and after i'd wipe away the tears
just close your eyes, dear
into this night wander
it's morning that i dread
another day of knowing of
the path i fear to tread
oh, into the sea of waking dreams
i follow without pride
nothing stands between us here
and i won't be denied
and i would be the one
to hold you down
kiss you so hard
i'll take your breath away
and after i'd wipe away the tears
just close your eyes, dear.
