    ^^ This.

    There are tons in this category for me. Here are the stand outs on my list:

    Given to Fly
    The Fixer gets me in a place hidden inside, just the idea in general
    Black with "we belong together" tag
    Daughter w/ “It’s ok”
    Light Years -especially with the pink pop 00 ending
    Inside Job

    Footsteps:
    "I've got scratches all over my arms,
    one for each day since I fell apart"

    I Got Id:
    "if just once,I could feel loved-
    oh stare back at me...."

    Sad:
    The whole damn song, but especially:
    "He stayed in his room with memories for days,
    He faced- an undertow of futures laid to waste...
    Embraced; by the loss of what he could not replace"
    and:
    "If just one wish could bring her back
    It's sad... and his lonliness is proof
    It's sad... he will always love you"

    The End:
    “Slide on next to me; I'M JUST A HUMAN BEING-
    I will take the blame
    But just the same,
    THIS IS NOT ME,
    You see, believe, I'M BETTER THAN THIS
    Don't leave me so cold
    Or buried beneath the stones
    I just want to hold on
    and know I'm worth your love
    Enough-I don't think
    There's such a thing.."




    Great thread.
    Makes much more sense...

    She seems to be stronger
    But what they want her to be is weak
    She could just pretend
    She could join the game

    and..
    I will light the match this morning
    so I won't be alone

    Those lines still give me the chills. I had a real crushing breakup when I was in my early 20's and I would listen to that over and over, which was really just punishing myself. Every time I hear it it brings me back to that time, so crazy!

    Oh where, oh where, can my baby be?
    The Lord took her away from me
    She's gone to heaven, so I've got to be good
    So I can see my baby when I leave this world

    We were out on a date in my daddy's car
    We hadn't driven very far
    There in the road, straight ahead
    A car was stalled, the engine was dead

    I couldn't stop, so I swerved to the right
    I'll never forget the sound that night
    The screamin' tires, the bustin' glass
    The painful scream that I heard last

    Oh where, oh where, can my baby be?
    The Lord took her away from me
    She's gone to heaven, so I've got to be good
    So I can see my baby when I leave this world

    When I woke up the rain was pourin' down
    There were people standing all around
    Something warm goin' through my eyes
    But somehow I found my baby that night

    I lifted her head, she looked at me and said
    "Hold me darling, just a little while"
    I held her close, I kissed her our last kiss
    I found the love that I knew I had missed

    Well now she's gone
    Even though I hold her tight
    I lost my love, my life, that night

    Oh where, oh where, can my baby be?
    The Lord took her away from me
    She's gone to heaven, so I've got to be good
    So I can see my baby when I leave this world
