Grateful Dead- Comes A Time

laughter laughter all I hear or see is laughter

Metallica - Master Of Puppets

'Cause where I live the game to play is compromise solution

"We've listened more to life's end gong than the sound of life's sweet bells"

Modest Mouse - Missed The Boat

Maggie's Farm - Bob Dylan

Don't get me wrong
If I'm acting so distracted
I'm thinking about the fireworks
That go off when you smile

"Stripped" - Depeche Mode


"Even you, yesterday, you had to ask me where it was at
I couldn't believe after all these years, you didn't know me any better than that
Sweet lady!"

The Cure--A Strange Day

How I made you, I wrought you, I pulled you,
From moore, I labored you
From cancer, I cradled you

The Decemberists-The Wanting Comes in Waves

I want something good to die for
To make it beautiful to live

Queens of the Stone Age - Go With the Flow

Don't you feed me lines about some idealistic future
Your heart won't heal right if you keep tearing out the sutures

postal service - nothing better

"if you don't expect too much from me, you might not be let down"

Favorite lyrics at this moment: every single lyric to the Dave Matthews Band song 'Pig':

Oh, isn't it strange
How we move our lives for another day?
Like skipping a beat
What if a great wave should wash us all away?
Just thinking out loud
Don't mean to dwell on this dying thing
But look at my blood
It's alive right now,
And deep and sweet within
Pouring through our veins
Intoxicate moving wine to tears
And drinking it deep
Then an evening spent dancing
It's you and me...

This love will open our world
From the dark side we can see a glow of something bright
Oh, there's much more than we see here
Don't burn the day away

Is this not enough?
This blessed sip of life,
Is it not enough?
Staring down at the ground
Oh, then complain and pray for more from above,
You greedy little pig
Stop, just watch your world trickle away
Oh, it's your problem now
It'll all be dead and gone in a few short years

Just love will open our eyes
Just love will put the hope back in our minds
Much more than we could ever know
Oh, so don't burn the day away
Don't burn the day away

Come sister, my brother
Shake up your bones, shake up your feet
I'm saying open up
And let the rain come pouring in
Wash out this tired notion
That the best is yet to come
But while you're dancing on the ground
Don't think of when you're gone

Love, love, love, what more is there?
'Cause we need the light of love in here
Don't beat your head
Dry your eyes
Let the love in there
There's bad times
But that's okay
Just look for love in it

And don't burn the day away...

Look, here are we
On this starry night, staring into space
And I must say
I feel as small as dust lying down here

What point could there be troubling?
Head down wondering what will become of me?
Why concern what we cannot see
But no reason to abandon it
The time is short but that's all right
Maybe I'll go in the middle of the night
Take your hands from your eyes, my love
All good things must come to an end some time
But don't burn the day away
Don't burn the day away...

Come sister, my brother
Shake up your bones, shake up your feet
I'm saying open up
And let the rain come flooding in
Wash out this tired notion
That the best is yet to come
But while you're dancing on the ground
Don't think of when you're gone

Love, love, love, what more is there?
'Cause we need the light of love in here
Don't beat your head
Dry your eyes
Let the love in there
There're bad times
But that's okay
Just look for love in it

Gin Blossoms - Hey Jealousy

How love in silence becomes reprimand
But the way that i feel about you

In a manner of Speaking - Tuxedomoon (Had to check this one, only knew Nouvelle Vague's cover)

"I could live a little better with the myths and the lies,
When the darkness broke in, I just broke down and cried."

Joy Division: She's Lost Control


I was going to drown,
Then I started swimming
I was going down,
Then I started winning


p.s.this is one of my favorite songs of all times
