SONGS

fix you
[coldplay]
when you try your best but you don't succeed
when you get what you want
but not what you need
when you feel but you can't sleep
stuck in reverse
and the tears come streamin' down your face
when you leave something you can't replace
when you love someone but it goes to waste
could it be worse?

lights will guide you home
and ignite your bones
and i will try to fix you

and high up above or down below
when you're too in love to let it go
but if you try you'll never know
just what you're worth

lights will guide you home
and ignite your bones
and i will try to fix you

tears stream
down your face
when you lose something you cannot replace
tears stream
down your face
and i...

tears stream
down your face
i promise you i will learn from your mistakes
tears stream
down your face
and i...

lights will guide you home
and ignite your bones
and i will try to fix you


a walk outside
[butterfly boucher]
which came first
the love or the love song?

which came first
the love or the love song?
which is more important?
in the long run

do you really want to talk about it
take it to the back veranda
have a drink and talk around it

in the end it doesn't matter
in the end we all go home
i thought about it for a minute
music's in the kiss we hold

which came first
the love or the love song?
i'm sorry
i guess i was wrong
(which came first)
(the love or the love song?)
let us find the tune without a sound
find the place that no one's found
pick it up and put it down

in the end it doesn't matter
in the end they all go home
i thought about it for a minute
music's in the kiss we hold
music is a walk outside

clever lines and clever lyrics
all boil down to what goes in them
if they find life then so do we...

yeah, uh-huh i think we're alive

music is a walk outside

think about it for a minute
in the end we all go home
music's in the things that matter
hear it in the kiss we hold
music is a walk outside

which came first
the love or the love song?
(which came first)
(the love or the love song?)
which came first
the love or the love song?
which came first
the love or the love song
(which came first)
(the love or the love song?)
which came first
the love or the love song


i'm tongue tied
[the magnetic fields]
i'm tongue tied
and useless
i'm weak-kneed and brainless and then
i mumble some jumble
you kiss me
i'm history
i'm tongue tied and useless again

my heart pounds
i make sounds
my ears hum

my head pops
her shoe drops
i'm struck dumb

i'm tongue-tied
and useless
i'm weak kneed and brainless
and then
i mumble some jumble
you kiss me
i'm history
i'm tongue tied and useless again

you say the things
the room swings
i feel things

i've no doubt
i'll black out
grand love ain't

i don't die
i say hi
how clever
i turn blue
i love you forever

i'm tongue tied
and useless
i'm weak kneed and brainless
and then
i mumble some jumble
you kiss me
i'm history
i'm tongue tied and useless again
i'm tongue tied and useless again


i wanna grow old with you
[adam sandler]

i wanna make you smile
whenever you're sad
carry you around when your arthritis is bad
oh all i wanna do
is grow old with you

i'll get your medicine
when your tummy aches
build you a fire if the furnace breaks
oh it could be so nice
growin' old with you

i'll miss you
kiss you
give you my coat when you are cold
i need you
feed you
even let you hold the remote control

so let me do the dishes in our kitchen sink
put you to bed when you've had too much to drink
oh i could be the man
who grows old with you
i wanna grow old with you


wreck of the day
[anna nalick]

drivin' away from the wreck of the day
and the light's always red in the rearview
desperately close to a coffin of hope
i'd cheat destiny just to be near you

and if this
is givin' up
then i'm givin' up
if this
is givin' up
then i'm givin' up
givin' up on love
on love

drivin' away from the wreck of the day
and i'm thinkin' about calling on jesus
cause love doesn't hurt
so i know i'm not falling in love
i'm just falling to pieces

and if this
is givin' up
then i'm givin' up
if this
is givin' up
then i'm givin' up
givin' up on love
on love

and maybe i'm not up for being a victim of love
all my resistance will never be distance enough
oh, mmmm...

drivin' away from the wreck of the day
and it's finally quiet in my head
drivin' alone finally on my way home
to the comfort of my bed

and if this
is givin' up
then i'm givin up
if this
is givin' up
then i'm givin' up
givin' up on love
on love


in my head
[anna nalick]

under the weight of your wings
you are a god and whatever i want you to be
and i wonder if truely you are
nearly as beautiful as i believe

in my head
your voice
you've got all that i need
and this make believe will get me through
another lonely night

under the weight of your wings
should ever we meet on your side of the stereo
i will pretend i know not of your thoughts
and even the way that they mirror my own
i'll take you away in the way that you take me
and go where i go

in my head
your voice
you've got all that i need
and this make believe will get me through
another lonely night

fall awake to the sound of my heart to your beat
melancholy and cool
kind of bittersweet
love on repeat
i'm echoing all your philosophy
and as i
fall awake to the sound of my heart to your beat
melancholy and cool
kind of bittersweet
love on repeat
i'm echoing all your philosophies

and as i
oh...
i don't
wanna be fool-hearted
baby i'm out
numbered in my head
i don't
i don't wanna be fool-hearted
baby i'm out
numbered in my head
my head
my head

in my head
your voice
you've got all that i need
and this make believe will get me through
another night
yeah
your voice
you've got all that i need
and this make believe will get me through
another lonely night

lonely night

under the weight of your wings
i make believe you are all that i'll ever need
all that i need


everyone's a little bit racist
[avenue q gang]
[spoken]
say kate can i ask you a question?
sure.
you know trekkie monster upstairs?
yeah...
well he's trekkie monster and you're kate monster...
right.
you're both monsters.
yeah
are you two related?
WHAT?! princeton i'm surprised at you! i find that RACIST.
well i'm sorry i was just asking
well it's a touchy subject! no, not ALL monsters are related. what are you trying to say, huuuuh? that we all look THE SAME to you?
no!
huh?!
no!
huh?!
no! no!
oh-- i'm-- i'm sorry i guess that was a little racist
i should say so, you should be much more careful when you're talking about the sensitive subject of race.
we-- well look who's talking!
what do you mean?
what about that "special monster school" you told me about?
what about it?
well could someone like me go there?
no! we don't want people like /you/ there.
hahaha! you see?

[sung]
you're a little bit racist
well you're a little bit, too!
i guess we're both a little bit racist
admitting it is not an easy thing to do
but i guess it's true
between me and you
i think everyone's a little bit racist, sometimes
doesn't mean we go around committing hate crimes!

look around and you will find
no one's really color blind
maybe it's a fact we all should face
everyone makes judgements based on race!

[spoken]
now not BIG judgements like who to hire or who to buy a newspaper from...
nooooo!
no, just little judgements like thinking that mexican bus boys should learn to speak God Damn English!
right!

[sung]
everyone's a little bit racist today
so everyone's a little bit racist, okay!
ethnic jokes might be uncouth
but you laugh because they're based on truth!
don't take them as personal attacks
everyone enjoys them
so RELAX!

[spoken]
okay okay, stop me if you've heard this one before...
okay!
alright there's a plane going down
uh-huh...
and there's only one parachute...
okay...
and there's a rabbi, a priest--
AND A BLACK GUY!
yeah!
whatchu' talkin' bout Kate!?
uhhh...
you were tellin' a black joke!
well sure, gary, but LOTS of people tell black jokes!
well i don't...
of course YOU don't, you're black. but i betcha tell polack jokes, right?
well sure i do! those stupid polacks!
now don't ya think that's a little racist?
well damn i guess you're right!

[sung]
you're a little bit racist!
well you're a little bit, too!
we're all a little bit racist
i think that i'd have to agree with you
we're glad you do!
it's sad, but true!
everyone's a little bit racist
alright
alright
alright
alright
bigotry has never been exclusively wide
if we all could admit
that we are racist a little bit
even though we all know that it's wrong
maybe it would help us get a long!

[spoken]
aw christ do i feel good!
now there was a fine upstanding black man...
who?
JESUS CHRIST
uhh... gary... jesus was white.
no jesus was black
no.. jesus was white
no! i'm pretty sure jesus was black.
guys, guys!... jesus... was JEWISH
BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

hey guys! what are you laughing about?!
racism!
COOL!

what's that mean?
um.. recyclables.

[sung]
everyone's a little bit racist

[spoken]

HUH!

[sung]

[spoken]

BLIAN!

[sung]

[spoken]

[sung]
the jews have all the money and the whites have all the power
and i always in taxi cab with dliva' who no shower!

[spoken]
me too!
me too!
i can't even GET A TAXI!

[sung]
everyone's a little bit racist it's true
but everyone's is just about racist as you
if we all could just admit
that we are racist a little bit
and everyone stop being so PC
maybe we could live in
harmony

[spoken]
evelyone's a rittle bit lacist!


walk away
[ben harper]
oh no
here comes that sun again
that means another day without you my friend
and it hurts me to look into the mirror at myself
and it hurts even more to have to be with somebody else

and it's so hard to do
and so easy to say
but sometimes, sometimes
you just have to walk away
walk away

so many people to love in my life
why do i worry about one?
but you put the happy in my ness
you put the good times into my fun

and it's so hard to do
and so easy to say
but sometimes, sometimes
you just have to walk away
walk away
and head for the door

we've tried the goodbyes so many days
we walk in the same direction
so that we could never stray
they say if you love somebody
then you have got to set them free
but i would rather be locked to you
then live in this pain and misery

they say
time will make all this go away
but it's time that has taken my tomorrows
and turned them into yesterdays
and once again that rising sun is dropping on down
once again you my friend
are nowhere to be found

and it's so hard to do
and so easy to say
but sometimes, sometimes
you just have to walk away
walk away
and head for the door
you just walk away
walk away
walk away
just walk on
walk on...
turn and head for the door
just walk away...


soul back
[butterfly boucher]

i must've left it on the table
or the chair
not sure
i didn't feel it
it was painless
oh dear
i guess i'm just a little careless
i'll confess
when the music's on
everything else gets lost

i think i like it
i think i like it
i think i'd like my soul back
i think i like it
i think i like it
i think i'd like my soul back

too busy lookin' for the good side
of the ball
to dance
i spun around and saw you waving
that's wierd
i thought i saw you by the punch bowl
i'll confess i had no glasses on
you could've been anyone

i think i like it
i think i like it
i think i'd like my soul back
i think i like it
i think i like it
i think i'd like my soul back

and only now i find i lost it
at all
somehow
you think you're fine until you land
on stones
and then you try to think what pushed you
i'll confess
i'm a mess inside
all my fun fell out

ahhh, ahhhh
ahhh, ahhhh

i think i'd like my soul back

i think i like it
i think i like it
i think i'd like my soul back
i think i like it
i think i like it
i think i'd like my soul back


volcano
[damien rice]

don't hold yourself like that
cause you'll hurt your knees
well i kissed your mouth and back
that's all i need
don't build your world around
volcanos melt you down...

what i am to you
is not real
what i am to you
you do not need
what i am to you
is not what you mean to me
you give me miles
and miles of mountains and
i ask for the sea

don't throw yourself like that
in front of me
i kissed your mouth, your back
is that all you need?
don't drag my love around
and volcanos melt me down

what i am to you
is not real
what i am to you
you do not not need
what i am to you
is not what you mean to me
you give me miles and miles of mountains
and i'll ask

for what i give to you
is just what i'm going through
this is nothing new
no, no just another phase
of finding what i really need
is what makes me bleed
like a new disease
lord, but she's still too young

what i am to you
is not real
(volcanos melt you down)
she's still too young
what i am to you
(volcanos melt you down)
is not real
she's still too young
what i am to you
(volcanos melt you down)


bad day
[daniel powter]
where is the moment when needed the most?
you kick up the leaves and the magic is lost
you tell me your blue skies fade to gray
you tell me your passion's gone away
and i don't need no carryin' on

stand in the line just to hit a new low
fakin' a smile with a coffee to go
they tell me your life's been way off line
you're falling to pieces everytime
and i don't need no carryin' on...

cause you had a bad day
you're takin one down
you sing a sad song just to turn it around
you say you don't know
you tell me don't lie
you work on a smile and you go for a ride
you had a bad day
the camera don't lie
you're coming back down and you really don't mind
you had a bad day
you had a bad day

well you need a blue-sky holiday
the point is they laugh at what you say
and i don't need no carryin' on

you had a bad day
you're takin' one down
you sing a sad song just to turn it around
you say you don't know
you tell me don't lie
you work up a smile and you go for a ride
you had a bad day
the camera don't lie
you're comin' back down and you really don't mind
you had a bad day

(oh.. holiday..)

sometimes the system goes on the brink
and the whole thing turns out wrong
you might not make it back and you know
that you could be well oh that strong
and I'm not wrong

so where is the passion when you need it the most
oh you and I
you kick up the leaves and the magic is lost

cause you had a bad day
you're taking one down
you sing a sad song just to turn it around
you say you don't know
you tell me don't lie
you work at a smile and you go for a ride
you had a bad day
you've seen what you like
and how does it feel for one more time
you had a bad day
you had a bad day

had a bad day
had a bad day
had a bad day
had a bad day
had a bad day


beautiful obscene
[diana anaid]

funny the way this is
every day in pieces
never the same as would expect it

beautiful obscene

i wouldn't take back a single day...


barely breathing
[duncan sheik]
well i know what you're doing
i see it all too clear
i only taste the saline
when i kiss away your tears
you really had me going
wishing on a star
but the black holes that surround you
are heavier by far
i believed in your confusion
you were so completely torn
it must've been that yesterday
was the day that i was born
not much to examine
nothing lef to hide
you really can't be serious
if you have to ask me why
i say goodbye...

cause i am barely breathing
i can't find the air
i don't know who i'm kidding
imagining you care
and i could stand here waiting
a fool for another day
i don't suppose it's worth the price
it's worth the price
the price that i would pay

and everyone keeps asking
what's it all about?
i used to be so certain
now i can't figure out
what is this attraction?
i only feel the pain
there's nothing left to reason
and only you to blame
will it ever change?

cause i am barely breathing
i can't find the air
i don't know who i'm kidding
imagining you care
and i could stand here waiting
a fool for another day
i don't suppose it's worth the price
worth the price
the price that i would pay
but i'm thinking it over, anyway
i'm thinking it over, anyway

oooh, oh...

come to find
i may never know
changing mind
friend or foe?
rise above
or sink below?
with everytime
you come and go
please don't
come and go

cause i am barely breathing
i can't find the air
i don't know who i'm kidding
imagining you care
i could stand here waiting
a fool for another day
i don't suppose it's worth the price
worth the price
the price that i would pay
but i'm thinking it over, anyway
i'm thinking it over, anyway

i know what you're doing
i see it all too clear...


hotel california
[the eagles]
on a dark desert highway
cool wind in my hair
warm smell of colitas
rising up through the air
up ahead in the distance
saw a shimmering light
it grew heavy and my sight grew dim
had to stop for the night
there she stood in the doorway
with the mission bell
i was thinkin' to myself
this could be heaven
or this could be hell
then she lit up that candle
she showed me the way
there were voices down the corridor
thought i heard them say

welcome to the hotel california
such a lovely place
(such a lovely place)
such a lovely face
plenty of room at the hotel california
any time of year
(any time of year)
you can find it here

her mind is tiffany twisted
she got the mercedes benz
she got a lot of pretty, pretty boys
she calls friends
but they dance in the courtyard
sweet summer sweat
some dance to remember
some dance to forgot
so i called up the captain
please bring me my wine
he said
we haven't had the spirit here
since 1969
and still those voices were calling from far away
wake you up in the middle of the night
just to hear them say

welcome to the hotel california
such a lovely place
(such a lovely place)
such a lovely face
livin' it up at the hotel california
what a nice surprise
bring your alibis

mirrors on the ceiling
pink champagne on ice
she said
we are all just prisoners here
of our own device
in the master's chambers
gathered for the feast
they stabbed it with their steely knives
but they just can't kill the beast
last thing i remember
i was running for the door
i had to find the passage back
to the place i was before
relax, said the nightman
we are programmed to receive
you can check out any time you like
but you can never leave!


my heart is the worst kind of weapon
[fallout boy]
spent most of last night
draggin' this lake
for the corpses of all my
past mistakes
sell me out
the jokes on you
we're the salt
you are the wound
empty another bottle
and let me tear you to pieces
this is me wishing you in
to the worst situations
i'm the kind of kid that can't
let anything go
but you wouldn't know a good thing
if it came up and slit your throat

woah, woah
ooooh
woah, woah

your remorse
hasn't fallen on deaf ears
rather ones that just don't care
cause i know
that you're inbetween arms somewhere
next to heartbeats
where you shouldn't be asleep
no, i'll teach you a lesson
for keeping secrets from me

take your taste back
peel back your skin
and try to forget how it feels inside
you should try saying no once in a while
oh once in a while
take your taste back
peel back your skin
and try to forget how it feels inside
you should try saying no once in a while
oh once in a while

and did you hear the news?
i could dissect you
and gut you on this stage
not as eloquent as i may have
imagined but it will get the job done
and you're done
every line
is plotted and designed
to leave you standing on your bedroom window's ledge
and everyone else that it hits
that it gets to
is nothing more than
collateral damage

take your taste back
peel back your skin
and try to forget how it feels inside
you should try saying no once in a while
oh once in a while
take your taste back
peel back your skin
and try to forget how it feels inside
you should try saying no once in a while
oh once in a while...


dance, dance
[fallout boy]
she says she's no good
with words but i'm worse
barely stuttered out
a joke of a romantic
stuck to my tongue
weighed down with words, too
overdramatic
tonight is
"it can't get much worse"
vs. "no one should ever feel like"

i'm two-quarters and a heart down
and i odn't wanna forget how your voice sounds
and these words are all i have so i write them
say i need them just to get by

dance, dance
we're falling apart to have time
dance, dance
and these are the lives that you love to lead
dance, this is the way they'd love
if they knew how misery loved me

you always fold just
before you're found out
drink up this call
last resort
but only the first mistake and i

i'm two-qarters and a heart down
and i don't wanna forget how your voice sounds
and these words are all i have so i write them
and i need them just to get by

a little bit of spine
you've been saving for his mattress
(love)

dance, dance
we're falling apart to have time

(mattress)
(mattress)

in the form of you
crawling into bed with me

dance, dance
we're falling apart to have time
dance, dance
and these are the lives that you love to lead
dance, this is the way they'd love
dance, this is the way they'd love
dance, this is the way they'd love
if they knew how misery loved me

dance, dance

[fallout boy]

that one for giving up on me
and one just cause they'll kill you
sooner than my expectations
to my favorite liar
to my favorite scar
(to my favorite scar)
i could have died with you

i hope you choke
on those words that kiss that bottle

i wouldn't piss to put you out
stop burning bridges
and drive off of them
so i can forget about
you

so bury me
in memory
his smile's your rope
so wrap it tight
around your throat

on the drive home
you joke about the kid you used to see
and his jealousy
breaking hearts has never looked so cool
as when you wrap your car around a tree
your makeup looks so great next to his teeth
(his teeth)

let's play this game
called when you catch fire
i wouldn't piss to put you out
no...
stop burning bridges
and drive off of them
so i can forget about
you...

in memory
his smile's your rope
so wrap it tight
around your throat

in memory
his smile's your rope
so wrap it tight
around your throat

so bury me in memory
around your throat...


the pros and cons of breathing
[fallout boy]
bury me standing under your window
with this cinderblock in hand
yeah, cause no one will ever feel like this again
and if i could move
i'm sure it would only be to crawl
back to you
must've dragged my guts a block
but they were gone by time we [talked]

woah
want to hate you half as much, yeah
as i hate myself
you know that i could crush you with my voice
woah
want to hate you half as much, yeah
as i hate myself
you know that i could crush you with my voice

stood on my roof
and tried to see you
forgetting about me
hide the details
i don't want to know a thing

i hate the way you say my name
like it's something secret
my pen is the barrell of a gun
remind me which side you should be on

woah
want to hate you half as much yeah
as i hate myself
you know that i could crush you with my voice
woah
want to hate you half as much, yeah
as i hate myself
you know that i could rush you with my voice

stood on my roof
and tried to see you

iris
[the googoo dolls]
and i'd give up forever to touch you
cause i know that you feel me somehow
you're the closest to heaven
that i'll ever be
and i don't wanna go home right now
and all i can taste is this moment
and all i can breathe is your life
and sooner or later it's over
i just don't wanna miss you tonight

and i don't want the world to see me
cause i don't think that they'd understand
when everything's made to be broken
i just want you to know who i am

and you can't fight the tears that ain't comin'
or the moment of truth in your lies
when everything feels like the movies
yeah you bleed just to know you're alive

and i don't want the world to see me
cause i don't think that they'd understand
when everything's made to be broken
i just want you to know who i am

and i don't want the world to see me
cause i don't think that they'd understand
when everything's made to be broken
i just want you to know who i am

and i don't want the world to see me
cause i don't think that they'd understand
when everything's made to be broken
i just want you to know who i am
i just want you to know who i am
i just want you to know who i am
i just want you to know who i am...


such great heights
[iron and wine/the postal service
i
am thinking it's a sign
that the freckles in our eyes
are mirror images and
when we kiss they're perfectly aligned

and i
have to speculate
that god himself did make
us into corresponding
shapes like puzzle pieces from the caly

and true
it may seem like a stretch
but it's thoughts like this
that catch my troubled head
when you're
away when i am missing
you to death

when
you are out there
on the road
for several weeks
of shows
and when you
scan the radio
i hope this song
will guide you home

they will see us waving from such great heights
"come down now"
they'll say

but everything looks perfect
from far away
"come down now"
but we'll stay

i
tried my best to leave
this all on your machine
but the persistant beating
sounded thin upon listening
and that
frankly will not fly
you will hear the shrillest
highs and lowers lows
with the windows down
when this is guiding you home

they will see us waving
from such great heights
"come down now"
they'll say
but everything looks perfect
from far away
"come down now"
but we'll stay


the trapeze swinger
[iron and wine]
please
remember me
happily
by the rose bush laughing with
bruises on my chin
a time when
we counted every black car
passing your house
beneath the hill
and up until
someone caught us in the kitchen
with maps
of a mountain range
and piggy banks
a vision too removed to mention

but please
remember me
fondly
i heard from someone you're still pretty
and then
they went on to say
that the pearly gates
have some eloquent graffiti
like "we'll meet again"
and "fuck the man"
and "tell my mother not to worry"
and angels with their grays
and shades
were always down in such a hurry

and please
remember me
at halloween
makin' fools of all the neighbors
our faces painted white
by midnight
we'd forgotten one another
and when
the morning came
i was ashamed
only now it seems so silly
that seasons
left the world
and then returned
but now you're lit up by the city

so please
remember me
mistakenly
in the window of the tallest tower
come
then passes by
but much too high
to see the empty road
at happy hour
gleam
and resonate
just like the gates
around the holy kingdom
with words
like "lost and found"
and "don't look down"
and "someone save temptation"

and please
remember me
as in the dream
we had as rug-burned babies
among
the fallen trees
fast asleep
beside the lions
and the lady
that called
you what you like
and even might
give a gift for your behaviour
a leading
chance to see
the trapeze
swinger high as any savior

but please
remember me
in misery
and how it lost me all i wanted
the dawns
that loved the rain
and chasing trains
be colored birds above their running
in circles around the well
and where it spells
on the wall behind st. peter
so bright
on cinder-gray
in spray paint
"who the hell can see forever?"

and please
remember me
seldomly
in the car behind the carnival
my hand
between your knees
you turned from me
said the trapeze act was wonderful
but never
meant to last
clowns that passed
saw me just come up with anger
and it filled
with circus dogs
and parking lots
had an element of danger

so please
remember me
finally
in all my uphill crawling
my dear
but if i may
the pearly gates
do my best to make a drawing of
god
and lucifer
a boy and girl
an angel kissing on a sinner
a monkey and a man
a marching band
all around the frightened trapeze swinger


kill
[jimmy eat world]
well you're just across the street
looks a mile to my feet
i wanna go to you
funny how i'm nervous still
i've always been the easy kill
i guess i always will

could it be that everything goes round by chance
(chance)
or only one way that it was always meant to be
(be)
you kill me
you always know the perfect thing to say,
hey hey,
hey hey
i know what i should do but i just can't walk away

i can picture your face well
from the bar in my hotel
i wish i'd go to you
i pick up
put down the phone
like your favorite he meiser song goes
it's just like being alone

oh god please don't tell me this has been in vain
(vain)
i need answers for what all the waiting i've done means
(means)
you kill me you've got some nerve but can't face your mistakes
(mistakes)
i know what i should do but i just can't walk away
(away)

(away)

so go on, love
leave while there's still hope for escape
gotta take what you can these days
there's so much ahead
and so much regret
i know whatcha wanna say
(i know watcha wanna say)
i know it but can't help feeling differently
i loved you
and i should've said it
but tell me just what has it ever meant?

i can't help it baby this is who i am
(am)
i'm sorry but i just can't go turn off how i feel
(feel)
you kill me you build me up but just to break
hey hey
hey hey
i know what i should do but i just can't walk away


legendary
[lou barlow]
i know you've given all that you could give to me
i know there'll come a day i understand
until then i'll be trying to solve your mystery
and wonder why i couldn't make you stay

smiling through denial
my specialty
i thought that was a good thing for a while
you gave me all your secrets were you testing me?
how could i do anything but smile?

or re-enact your legendary tragedy
do to me what has been done to you
is that the only point to all this misery?
is there any reason i should cry?

heal, it takes time
and you gave me all you had
i know in time
i will believe
that i loved you
did you love me?
did you love me?

oooh...

heal, it takes time
and you gave me all you had
i know in time
i will believe
that i loved you
and you loved me
you loved me...


puzzle
[lou barlow]
it's a puzzle that served us well
i think you're funny and you love my smell
but not enough
a lifetime of stuff we could want

we were simply buried alive
trapped in a rapture
tied to the sky
cuddled on the couch
tranquilized

and then you left me
if only in your eyes
don't you want me?

rusted halo use your wings
hands on your hip
"miss didn't miss a thing"
you're not mine
though you wear that ring on your finger

one crush had me crawlin' away
you crush me, brush me aside
but how could i be surprised
that in between my
shadow and your light
i did lose you...?

fly without me
never be denied
let it happen
fall you'll be alright
i will catch you

fly without me
never be denied
and if you love me
tell me with your eyes
they never lie...

it's been a long year this year
good or bad i can't tell from here
what a thrill
mop up the spill with my heart
there a puzzle in your angel eyes
a piece we may never find
a peace we may never find at the same time
but inbetween my
shadow and your light
there's an answer
inbetween my
shadow and your light


when i go deaf
[low]
when i go deaf
i won't even mind
i'll be alright
i'll be just fine

i'll stay out all night
lookin' at the sky
i'll still have my sight
yeah i'll still have my eyes

we will make love
we won't have to fight
we won't have to speak
and we won't have to lie

and i'll stop writing songs
stop scratching out lines
i won't have to fake
it won't have to rhyme

when i go deaf
when i go deaf
when i go deaf
when i go deaf

when i go deaf
when i go deaf
when i go deaf
when i go deaf


leaving on a jet place
[john denver]
all my bags are packed
i'm ready to go
i'm standing here outside your door
i hate to wake you up to say goodbye

but the dawn is breaking

so many times i've played around

every place i go i'll think of you
ever song i sing i'll sing for you
when i come back
i'll bring your wedding ring

so kiss me and smile for me

one more time

hold me like you'll never let me go

cause i'm leaving on a jet plane

well who's the king of the season?

only makes you small
just like the way it should be

reelin' in the years
[steely dan]
your everlasting summer
you can see it fading fast
so you grab a piece of something
you think is gonna last
you wouldn't know a diamond
if you held it in your hand
the things you think are precious
i can't understand

are you reelin' in the years?
stowin' away the time?
are you gathering up the tears?
have you had enough of mine?

are you reelin' in the years?
stowin' away the time?
are you gathering up the tears?
have you had enough of mine?

you been tellin' me you're a genius
since you were seventeen
in all the time I've known you
i still don't know what you mean
the weekend at the college
didn't turn out like you planned
the things that pass for knowledge
i can't understand

are you reelin' in the years?
stowin' away the time?
are you gathering up the tears?
have you had enough of mine?

are you reelin' in the years?
stowin' away the time?
are you gathering up the tears?
have you had enough of mine?

i spend a lot of money
and I spent a lot of time
the trip we made in Hollywood
is etched upon my mind
after all the things we've done and seen
you find another man
the things you think are useless
i can't understand

are you reelin' in the years?
stowin' away the time?
are you gathering up the tears?
have you had enough of mine?

are you reelin' in the years?
stowin' away the time?
are you gathering up the tears?

anthem of our dying day
[story of the year]
the stars will cry
the blackest tears tonight
and this is the moment that i live for
i can smell the ocean air

here i am
pouring my heart
onto these rooftops
just a ghost
to the world
that's exactly, exactly what i mean

from up here the city lights burn
like a thousand miles of fire
and i'm here to sing this anthem
of our dying day

for a second i wish the tides
would swallow every inch of this city
as you gasp for air tonight

i'd scream this song
right in your face if you were here
swear i won't
miss a beat
cause i never
never have before

from up here the city lights burn
likes a thousand miles of fire
and i'm here to sing this anthem
of our dying day

of our dying day
of our dying day
of our dyyyyying

for a second i wish the tide
would swallow every inch of this city
as you gasp for air tonight

from up here the city lights burn
likes a thousand miles of fire
and i'm here to sing this anthem
of our dying day
from up here the city lights burn
likes a thousand miles of fire
and i'm here to sing this anthem
of our dying day
from up here the city lights burn
likes a thousand miles of fire

existensialism on prom night
[straylight run]
when the sun came up
we were sleeping in
sunk inside our blankets
sprawled across the bed
and we
were dreaming

there are moments when
when i know it and
the world revolves around us
and we're keepin it
keep it all going
this delicate balance
vulnerable, all knowing
(sing like you think no one's listening)

you would kill for this
just a little bit
just a little bit
you would kill for this
(sing like you think no one's listening)
you would kill for this
just a little bit
just a little bit
you would

sing me something soft
sad and delicate
or loud and out of key
sing me anything

we're glad for what we've got
done with what he lost
our whole lives laid out
right in front of us

(sing like you think no one's listening)
you would kill for this
just a little bit
just a little bit
you would
you would
(sing like you think no one's listening)
you would kill for this
just a little bit
just a little bit
you would

sing me something soft
sad and delicate
or loud and out of key

coin operated boy
[the dresden dolls]
coin operated boy
sitting on the shelf
he is just a toy
but i turn him on
and he comes to life
automatic joy
that is why i want
a coin operated boy

made of plastic
and elastic
he is rugged
and long-lasting
who could ever
ever ask for more?
love without complications galore?

many shapes and weights to choose from
i will never leave my bedroom
i will never cry at night again
wrap my arms around him and pretend

coin operated boy
all the other real
ones that i destroy
cannot hold a candle
to my new boy
and i'll never let him go
and i'll never be alone
and i'll never let him go
and i'll never be alone (go)
and i'll never be alone (go)
and i'll never be alone (go)
and i'll never be alone (go)
and i'll never be alone
not with my coin operated boy

this bridge was written
to make you feel smittener
with my sad picture
of girl getting bitterer
can you extract me
from my plastic fantasy?
i didn't think so
but i'm still convincable
will you persist
even after i bet you
a billion dollars
that i'll never love you
and will you persist
even after i kiss you
goodbye for the last time
will you keep on trying
to prove it?
i'm dying
to lose it
i'm losing
my confidence
i want it
i want it
i want it
i want it
i want it
i want to
i want to
i want to
i want you
i want you
i want you
i want you
i want a
i want a

i want a
coin operated boy

uhhh

and if i had a star to wish on
for my life i can't imagine
any flesh and blood could be his match
i can even take him in the bath

coin operated boy
he may not be real
or experienced with girls
but i know he feels
like a boy should feel
isn't that the point?
that is why i want
a coin operated boy
with a pretty coin
operated voice
saying that he loves me
and he's thinking of me
straight and to the point
that is why i want
a coin operated boy


brand new colony
[the postal service]
i'll be the grapes fermented
bottled and served with a table set
in my suit like a perfect gentleman

i'll be the fire escape
that's bolted to the ancient brick
where you will sit and contemplate your day

i'll be the water wings
that save you if you start drowning in
an open tab when your judgement's on the brink

i'll be the phonograph
that plays your favorite albums back
as you're lying there
drifting off to sleep

i'll be the platform shoes
undo what heredity's done to you
you won't have to strain
to look into my eyes

i'll be your winter cloak
buttoned straight zipped to the throat
with the collar up
so you won't catch cold

i want to take you far
from the cynics in this town
and kiss you on the mouth
we'll cut our bodies free
from the tethers of this scene
start a brand new colony
where everything will change
we'll give ourselves new names
identities erased
the sun will heat the grounds
under our bare feet
in this brand new colony
this brand new colony

everything will change
ooooh
ooooh
everything will change
ooooh
ooooh
everything will change
ooooh
ooooh


nothing better
[the postal service]
will someone please call a surgeon
who can crack my ribs
and repair this broken heart
that you deserted
for better company?

i can't accept that it's over
and i will block the door
like a goalie tending the net
in the third quarter
of a tied game rivarly

so
just say how to make it right
and i swear i'll do my best to comply

tell me am i right
that there could be nothing better
than making you my bride
and slowly growing old together?

i fear i must interject here
you're getting carried away
feeling sorry for yourself
with these revisions
and gaps in history
so let me help you remember
i've made charts and graphs that
shall finally make it clear
i've prepared a lecture
on why i have to leave

so
please back away and let me go

i can't my darling i love you so

oh oh

tell me am i right
to think that there could be nothing better
than making you my bride and slowly growing old together?

don't you feed me lies (tell me am i right)
about some idealistic future
your heart won't heal right
if you keep tearing out the sutures (tell me am i right)

i admit that i have made mistakes
and i swear i'll never wrong you again

you've got a lure i can't deny
but you've had your chance so say goodbye
say goodbye


the district sleeps alone tonight
[the postal service]
smeared black ink
your palms are sweaty
i'm barely listening
to last demands
i'm staring at the asphalt
what's buried underneath
(where i am)
(where i am)

wear my badge
vinyl sticker with big block letters
adhere it to my chest
tells your new friends
i am a visitor here
i am not permanent

and the only thing
keeping me dry is

you seem so out of context (where i am)
in this gaudy apartment complex
a stranger with your door key (where i am)
explaining that i'm just visiting
and i am finally seeing (where i am)
why i was the one worth leaving
why i was the one worth leaving

d.c. sleeps alone tonight

you seem so out of context (where i am)
in this gaudy apartment complex
a stranger with your door key (where i am)
explaining that i'm just visiting
and i am finally seeing (where i am)
why i was the one worth leaving
why i was the one worth leaving

the district sleeps alone tonight (where i am)
after the bars turn out the lights
and send the autos swerving (where i am)
into the loneliest evening
and i am finally seeing (where i am)
why i was the one worth leaving
why i was the one worth leaving
why i was the one worth leaving
why i was the one worth leaving


sleeping in
[the postal service]
last week i had the strangest dream
where everything was exactly how it seemed
where there was never any mystery
of who shot john f kennedy
it was
just a man with something to prove
slightly bored and severely confused
he steadied his rifle with his target in the center
and became famous on that day in november

don't wake me
i plan on sleeping in
don't wake me
i plan on sleeping in
don't wake me
i plan on sleeping in
don't wake me
i plan on sleeping in

again last night i had that strange dream
where everything was exactly how it seemed
where concerns about the world getting warmer
people thought they were just being rewarded
for treating others as they'd like to be treated
for obeying stop signs
and curing diseases
for mailing letters with the address of the sender
now we can swim any day in november

don't wake me
i plan on sleeping in
(now we can swim any day in november)
don't wake me
i plan on sleeping in
don't wake me
i plan on sleeping in
don't wake me
i plan on sleeping
don't wake me
i plan on sleeping in
don't wake me
i plan on sleeping in
don't wake me
i plan on sleeping in

we will become silhouettes
[the postal service/the shins]
i've got a cupboard with cans of food
filtered water and pictures of you
and i'm not coming out
until this is all over

and i'm looking through the glass
where the light bends at the cracks
and i'm screaming at the top of my lungs
pretending the echoes belong to someone
someone i used to know

and we become
silhouettes when our bodies finally go

i wanted to walk through the empty streets
and feel something constant under my feet
but all the news reports
recommended that i stay indoors

because the air outside will make
our cells divide at an alarming rate
until our shells cannot hold
all our insides in
and that's when we'll explode
and it won't be a pretty sight

and we'll become
silhouettes when our bodies finally go
and we'll become
(and we'll become)
(we'll become)

silhouettes when our bodies finally go

and we'll become
(and we'll become)
(we'll become)
silhouettes when our bodies finally go

and we'll become
(and we'll become)
(we'll become)
silhouettes when our bodies finally go

(and we'll become)
(we'll become)
(we'll become)

(and we'll become)
(we'll become)
(we'll become)

(and we'll become)
(we'll become)
(we'll become)


those to come
[the shins]
eyeless in the morning sun
you were
pale and mild
a modern girl
taking the thoughts
still prone to care
making tea
in your underwear
you went out in the yard to find

something to eat
to clear your mind
something bad inside me went away

quaking leaves and broken light
shifting skin
a coming night
the bearers of all good things arrive
climb inside us
twist and cry
a kiss on your molten eyes

myriad lies
and blades of grass
yet to be realized
bow as they pass

they are cold
still
waiting in the ether
to form
feel
kill
propogate only to die

they car cold
still
waiting in the ether
to form
feel
kill
propogate only to die

dissolve
magically
absurdly
they end
leave
dissipate
coldly and strangely
return


that thing you do
[the wonders]
you
doing that thing you do
breaking my heart
into a million pieces
like you always do
and you
don't mean to be cruel
you never even knew about the heartache
i've been going through

well i try, and try
to forget you girl
but it's just so hard to do
every time you do that thing you do

i
know all the games you play
and i'm gonna find a way
to let you know that
you'll be mine someday
cause we
could be happy can't you see?
if you'd only let me be the one to hold you
and keep you here with me

cause i try and try
to forget you girl
but it's just so hard to do
every time you do that thing you do

i don't ask a lot
but i know one thing's for sure
it's the love i haven't got girl
and i just can't take it anymore
(wooooah!)

cause we
could be happy can't you see?
if you'd only let me be the one to hold you
or keep you here with me

cause it hurts me so just to see you go
around with someone new
and if i know you
you're doing that thing
everyday just doing that thing
i can't take you doing that thing you do


everything you want
[vertical horizon]
somewhere there's speaking
it's already coming in
oh but it's rising
at the back of your mind

you never could get it
unless you were fitted
and now you're here
and you don't know why

but under skinned knees and
the skid marks
past the places
where you used to learn

you howl and listen
listen and wait for the
echoes of angels
who won't return

he's everything you want
he's everything you need
he's everything inside of you
that you wish you could be
he says all the right things
at exactly the right time
but he means nothing to you
and you don't know why

you're waiting for someone
to put you together
you're waiting for someone
to push you away

there's always another
wound to discover
there's always something more
you wish he'd say

he's everything you want
he's everything you need
he's everything inside of you
that you wish you could be
he says all the right things
at exactly the right time
but he means nothing to you
and you don't know why

and you'll just sit tight
and watch it unwind
it's only what you're asking for
and you'll be just fine
with all of your time
it's only what you're waiting for...

out of the islands
into the highway
past the places
where you might have turned

you never did notice
that you still hide away
the angle of angels
who won't return

he's everything you want
he's everything you need
he's everything inside of you
that you wish you could be
he says all the right things
at exactly the right time
but he means nothing to you
and you don't know why

i am everything you want
i am everything you need
i am everything inside of you
that you wish you could be
i say all the right things
at exactly the right time
but i mean nothign to you
and i don't know why
and i don't know why
why

and i don't know why


come on
[ben jelen]
finally the silence
looking out
looking back across the sky
trying to find a meaning
knowing that i just left it all behind
still i smell a lingering softness
where did she go?
how did she go?
i want
i wanna know
i wanna know that she'll be coming
here
to me

come on
without you
i'll never feel
the love inside of me
come on
you know that we belong
come on
come on
come on

thinking back before her
i never knew the meaning of alone
still the flag is feeling foreign
i live the day to escape into a phone
speaking of a world not real then
where did she go?
how did she go?
i want
i wanna know
i wanna know that she'll be coming
here to me

come on
without you
i'll never feel
the love inside of me
come on
you know that we belong
come on
come on
come on
come on

cause she's sharp for kisses
and my heart misses
she's coming
she's coming here to me
i'm needing
desiring
to kiss her mouth
i'm living for her
feeling for her
singing for her
fairytale

come on
without you
i'll never feel
the love inside of me
come on
you know that we belong
come on
come on
come on
come on

come on
without you
i'll never feel
the love inside of me
come on
come on
come on
come on

come on


hear you me
[jimmy eat world]
there's no one in town that i know
you gave us some place to go
i never said thank you for that
i thought i might get one more chance

what would you think of me now?
so lucky
so strong
so proud?
i never said thank you for that
now i'll never have a chance

may angels lead you in
hear you me my friends
on sleepless roads
the sleepless go
may angels lead you in

so what would you think of me now?
so lucky
so strong
so proud?
i never said thank you for that
now i'll never have a chance
may angels lead you in
hear you me my friend
on sleepless roads
the sleepless go
may angels lead you in

(may angels lead you in)
may angels lead you in
(may angels lead you in)
may angels lead you in

and if you weren't with me tonight
i'd sing to you just one last time
a song for a heart so big
that God wouldn't let it live

may angels lead you in
hear you me my friend
on sleepless roads
the sleepless go
may angels lead you in

may angels lead you in
hear you me my friends
on sleepless roads
the sleepless go
may angels lead you in

(on sleepless roads
the sleepless go
may angels lead you in)
may angels lead you in


another perfect day
[american hifi]
i'm holding on
waiting for your call
it's simple but i can't explain this
i'm sinking down
i feel like i could die
i'm falling off i don't know why

i still believe it when you say
it's another perfect day
another perfect day
i still believe it when you say
it's another perfect day
another perfect day

so i might try
to leave it all behind
i know tomorrow's not so bright, now
i'll say goodbye
cause nothing good can last
you wear and figure nowhere fast

and today
i don't know how
to keep it all inside
but i guess i'll let it slide

i still believe it when you say
it's another perfect day
another perfect day
i still believe it when you say
it's nother perfect day
another perfect day

today
i don't know why
i thought that it was real
but i guess it's no big deal

i still believe it when you say
it's another perfect day
another perfect day
i still believe it when you say
it's another perfect day
another perfect day

i don't know how
i don't know how
i don't know how
to let it slide

i've been working on this for about a week. there were... 20-something more songs that were in this list, but there wasn't enough room for them so they'll be coming in another entry. <3
