Sunset - The XX
“What have you done with the one I love? When I look into your eyes, I see no surprise.
I always thought it was sad
The way we act like strangers
After all that we had
We act like we had never met
We make believe, I’ve never seen your face, you neither mine
And catch my eye, don’t register a smile
You were more than just a friend, oh but the feeling
It never came to an end, I can’t bear to see you”
Say - Cat Power
“I hope all is well with you, I wish the best for you
When no one is around love will always love you”
“Never give up, no never give up
If you’re looking for something easy, you might as well give it up”
Fire In The Ocean - The Organ
take my garbage throw it in the ocean
suck a man off throw up in the ocean
no the moon’s no fire in the sea
no object like that could speak to me
who will love me oh like the ocean does
who will love me oh like the ocean does
we are so much like eachother
we don’t see the need for each other
Never Meant - American Football
“there were some things that were said that weren’t meant”
“so let’s just pretend everything and anything between you and me was never meant”
People Talk - Wintersleep
I’m afraid of men with clocks for eyes
with suits for skin
I’m afraid we’ve swallowed all our medicine
I’m afraid of God and all his angry clouds
I’m afraid the world will die without a sound
I was just trying to say something beautiful
something meaningful
but you can’t live in the world just breathing
beautiful
no, you can’t live in the world just being
meaningful
people talk so loud
people talk so loud
people talk so loud
they talk until no words come out
they talk until their brains fall out
Leif Erikson - Interpol
“She swears I’m a slave to the details
But if your life is such a big joke, why should I care?”
“If you don’t bring up those lonely parts
This could be a good time”
“She says brief things, her love’s a phony
My love’s subliminal”
One of my Top Five favorite Interpol songs
I Will Bury You In Time - Jeff Magnum (Live at Jittery Joe’s)
Everything you are I’m tearing through
Everything you want I’m wanting too
I gave you more than I thought I could ever do
But I will never break you
Heroin Bag - Neutral Milk Hotel
“Don’t push me too far, you won’t get anywhere like that”
After Laughter Comes Tears - Wendy René
I’ll try to hide, hide my sorrow
I wonder, can I hold them till tomorrow?
maybe I’ll hold them for years
The Handshake - MGMT
I was a loner
I was just waiting by myself
When you, warped temptress, rose to bring me happiness and wealth
Colors and the Kids - Cat Power
slender fingers would hold me
slender limbs would hold me
and you could say my name
like you knew my name
I could stay here, become someone different
I could stay here, become someone better
In This Hole - Cat Power
Where should I hang my head?
Where would you like for me to hang my head?
Metal Heart - Cat Power
“How selfish of you to believe in the meaning of all the bad dreaming.
Metal heart, you’re not hiding.
Metal heart, you’re not worth a thing.”
one of my all time favorite songs ever.
He Turns Down - Cat Power
“Holding on for someone feels like holding on too long.
Have you ever held on?”
A Song for a Lover of Long Ago - Justin Vernon
“I have buried you, every place I’ve been.
You keep ending up, in my shaking hands.”
