i like to learn things slow
i like learning a lot
i like to get it all again and in the end
you know you get what you got

- she & him, "lingering still"

why do you look like that? it's not all that bad
i'll see you sometime, sometimes lonely isn't sad

- she & him, "thieves"

i grew up with a book in my hand, i got these dark circles before i turned ten
heard my mother with her friends worry it was something she did, to get such a serious kid

- dessa, "children's work"

to be lonely is a habit like smoking or taking drugs
and i've quit them both but man was in rough

- jenny lewis, "acid tongue"

how do you tame a lion when they are lying low
you be my arthur miller and i will be your marilyn monroe

- washington, "how to tame lions"

this is the way i always dreamed it would be
the way that it is, oh oh, when you are holding me
i never had a love of my own,
maybe that's why when we're all alone
i can hear music, i can hear music
the sound of the city, baby, seems to disappear

- the beach boys, "i can hear music"

and everybody, everybody, everybody knows,
and when i went outside and i saw it i froze,
you put my secret and your secret at the people's feet,
you remembered what i said and you wrote it on the fucking concrete

- washington, "cement"

and i think it's gonna be alright
yeah, the worst is over now
the mornin' sun is shinin' like a red rubber ball

- cyrkle, "red rubber ball"

i miss winter just because i miss when i knew you best
i miss the typewriter in the basement, i miss making your room a mess
i miss not being misused
i miss it all, so i guess i lose

- jaymay, "sea green, see blue"
