Song Poem meme from Ollie and Mike

[need2speed]

Put your music on shuffle. Post the first lines of the first 20 songs as a poem.

Words like violence break the silence
every time we lie awake
Lately I can't breath
I've been here before a few times
I am colorblind
It doesn't hurt me
picture yourself sleeping on a plane
You look so fine, I want to break your heart

Faces all around me they don't smile they

Yes, you and Oliver. Depression central.

[need2speed]

Name six depressing songs on that list.

[have_no_mercy]

I don't know the songs on the list? So I'll go in order as they appear:
#1
#3
#6
#8
#9
#10
#13
#15
#17
#18
#20

#1 - not depressing, remake of 80's song about shutting up and expressing yourself with your body instead
#3 - okay, yeah, depressing
#6 - not depressing, another remake, about...love, I guess?
#8 - only depressing if you want it to be
#9 - this one is depressing
#10 - not depressing, kick-ass
#13 - kind of about being cheating on so alright, depressing
#15 - Not depressing, political fight-the-power song
#17 - Song about getting high
#18 - depressing but upbeat song?
#20 - okay, kind of depressing

There's still six, even if I don't know what they are.

[need2speed]

But they're catchy!

[have_no_mercy]

Well, I can only judge shallowly by surface only. So I do what I can.

[need2speed]

Besides, I really hate dance-club music. And strip club music. And Britney Spears.

[have_no_mercy]

I hear you on the dance club music. I got dragged to enough of those when I was in Star City.

[need2speed]

The pounding gives you a headache after the first five seconds.

[have_no_mercy]

Yes, but I was trying to make friends, so I put up with it.

[need2speed]

Friends? In clubs?

[have_no_mercy]

Oh, this was back when I was with Oliver. His friends' girlfriends liked to go to clubs, so I went with them.

[need2speed]

...you were with Oliver? Like "with" with?

[have_no_mercy]

...you didn't know that?

[need2speed]

I thought you just worked together. But suddenly a whole lot of other things make sense.
