 Music meme stolen from somewhere? Srsly Im so indie it hurts

Step 1: Set your music player to shuffle.
Step 2: Post the first line (or first couple of lines) from the first 20 songs that play (or however many you want to), no matter how embarrassing the song.
Step 3: Anyone is allowed to guess the answers.
Step 4: Strike through and add the artist and title below the lyric when someone gets one right.
Step 5: Looking them up on the interwebs is cheating, and every time you cheat a kitten dies. So don't do it.


1. We were in the graveyard, shovel in hand and digging. Took one step to the hole, realized it wasn't our time to go. We still had a lot of work, work to do.

2. I like your twisted point of view, Mike
I like your questioning eyebrows
You've made it pretty clear what you like
It's only fair to tell you now
I see that kiss-me pucker forming
But maybe you should plug it with a beer, because…

3. At the record company meeting
On their hands - a dead star
And oh, the plans they weave
And oh, the sickening greed

4. It’s the second September I have known you
Four years or so ago, I rode a pony, called him Truth
We didn`t know the way so it took us till today to get here

5. I’d set your heart on fire but arson is no way
to make a love burn brighter.
(When you saw me, on that first day
said I’d blossom under your care).

6. The beats, yeah, they were coming out the speakers
And were winding up straight in your sneakers.
And I'm dancing like every song he spins is bis or like
Like all my dance heroes would if they existed.

7. what do they know when they say I'm too young
as I get older and until my life is done
I'll be the one who had love that was true
they all had nothing, and I have you

8. Well, I've been dying to say this to you
And I don't know what else to do
I've seen your fucking attitude
Well I've been doing someone that you know
It's not a secret to me anymore
'Cause I've seen you blowing around my fame

9. Don't you, just feel so broken hearted?
They unzip you from your throat to your pelvis.
I'm just gonna feel so broken hearted.
Vampire cities sprouting from your organs.

10. they caught you like a kite to the sky
and held you up and holding on tightly
well i've never seen a yellow as bright as tonight

11. Joshua smiled, said “listen to reason,
don’t blame me when the walls come tumbling
down.”
So I was adrift on the sea of longing
awaiting the trumpets to raise your ivory
gown.

12. you remind me of a firework, boy
you touch the ceiling, you touch the floor
you sparkle and burn but you take your time
and i bet i could carry you across state lines

13. Fed up of girls in pretty dresses
With boys who want to teach them a lesson
Sick of the sight of my old lover
Went under sheets and covers to get away from him

14. The colorless words are burning our heels
& the bright lights of the city fade
Taking the chase to curb our fear
As the bloodless moon casts its face

15. It's getting late
The streets are empty
The buildings spark and then burn to the ground
In this eclipse
The ghosts are hopeless
Shapes and frames trapped in the grasp of ice
Glowing, gloaming I know nothing at all

16. I fell in love again
All things go, all things go

17. All the dams will give at the end,
at the end, at the end of the world.
Will you swim for me?
And the lights could go at any time,
any time, any time, any time.
How will you look for me?

18. Oh, pretty boy
You found it hard to really find out what felt right
You wanna be a pretty girl, you hunt at night
The streets, your urgency to bleed
You bruised up both your knees
While rifling through women’s jeans

19. I went to a dance the other night, saw a girl there she was out of sight, I asked a friend of mine who she could be, said her friend’s just called her sweet-pea.

20. Everything around here makes me sad
Everything is part of the dreams that we had
That will never be the way
We wanted them to be
