Metallica, Outlaw Torn
And when I close my mind in fear, please pry it open
And when my face becomes sincere, beware
And when I start to come undone, stitch me together
And when you see me strut, remind me of what left this outlaw torn

Audioslave, The Last Remaining Light
If you don't believe the sun will rise
Stand alone and greet the coming night
In the last remaining light.

Iron Maiden, The Trooper
You'll take my life but I'll take yours too
You'll fire your musket but I'll run you through

RHCP, This is the Place
Can I smell your gasoline, can I pet your wolverine?

Yeeeah there are more. A lot of it's about delivery as well.

Pretty Green Eyes,
For the sparkle and such light,
Let me remind,
She chose not to cry,
Its alright, for your lover has come home,
By your side I'll always stay,
Never have to be alone!


DJ Hixxy - Pretty Green Eyes.

I feel alive, now I can breathe again,
I call your name, my friend.

I hold, you close, theres fire in my soul,
So run to me, again.

I feel you, I want you, I know your touch is all I need,
I'm waiting, you're shining.

Scott Brown - You're Shining.

Rose of Sharyn by Killswitch Engage

It won't be long, we'll meet again.
Your memory is never passing.
It won't be long, we'll meet again.
My love for you is everlasting.
I mourn for those who never knew you....



What Sarah Said by Death Cab for Cutie

And it came to me then that every plan
Is a tiny prayer to father time
As I stared at my shoes in the ICU
That reeked of piss and 409
And I rationed my breaths as I said to myself
That I'd already taken too much today
As each descending peak on the LCD
Took you a little farther away from me. Away from me....

Voices of Violence will always be heard...(voices of violence, Billy Talent)

Oh the glory when he took our place, But he took my shoulders and he shook my face
And he takes and he takes and he takes .....(Casimir Pulaski Day, Sufjan Stevens)

When youre dreaming with a broken heart...The waking up is the hardest part..
You roll outta bed and down on your knees...and for the moment you can hardly breathe


John Mayer - Dreaming With a Broken Heart

Stones taught me to fly
Love taught me to lie
Life taught me to die
So it's not hard to fall
When you float like a cannonball


Damien Rice - Cannonball

Thursday night, everything's fine, except you've got that look in your eye
When I'm tellin' a story and you find it boring,
You're thinking of something to say.
You'll go along with it then drop it and humiliate me in front of our friends.

Then I'll use that voice that you find annoyin' and say something like
"yeah, intelligent input, darlin', why don't you just have another beer then?"

Then you'll call me a b**ch
And everyone we're with will be embarrassed,
And I wont give a s**t.

basically every song from the wombats:

Kill the director:

Whenever she looks i read the nearest paper
No i don't care about the soaps
No i don't care about the soaps
Though i'm acting like i'm in an Eastenders episode

Carrots help us see much better in the dark
Don't talk to girls; they'll break your heart
And this is my head and this is my spout
They work together; they can't figure anything out

Tales of girls, boys and marsupials:

Tales of girls and boys and girls and marsupials

Party in a forest:

Am I in a scene from 'Midsummer Nights Dream'?
I thought raves like these died in the 90s?
The forest is breathing along with us tonight
Upper Class thugs take middle-class drugs
And we all get lowered in size
This is not my scene, I should not be here tonight

Trance music bangs a comical dance of cardboard boxes and fish
We're the fairies from hell and we're all on a death wish
This is not my scene, this is killing me
I don't want to be here tonight
And the girl who can save me is well across the Pennines

School Uniforms:

I remember short skirts,
Long hair,
My hormones flying everywhere

Backfire at the Disco:

It was a chat-up line built not to impress
More a sleazy remark on her whorish dress
My wires crossed like they've never done before
Well it's 3 o' clock and I'm feeling shite
I'm going home alone tonight
I made a move when it was well out of context

My First Wedding:

This is my first wedding and I hope it is my last
Things would be fantastic if me and the bride didn't have a past
So I stand by the buffet and submerse myself in brie
I'm tactically positioned
Yeah because the bar is near and the champagne's for free
Oooh oooh ooh ooh
This is my first wedding and I hope it passes quick,
If I’ve got no feelings for her then why is my stomach feeling so sick?
As they dance to their soppy song I pray it isn't love
Because she's my heartless bitch that I just can't seem to get enough of


download the wombats! they r le awsome!

oh, and i also feel "I'm horny, I'm horny horny horny. so horny, lets horny horny horny" was a significant line

"Where rocking horse people eat marshmallow pies" - Lucy in the Sky With Diamonds

also all placebo lyrics are genius

Nancy Boy:

Alcoholic kind of mood
lose my clothes, lose my lube
cruising for a piece of fun
looking out for number one
different partner every night
so narcotic outta sight
what a gas, what a beautiful ass.

Kind of buzz that lasts for days
had some help from insect ways
comes across all shy and coy
just another nancy boy.
Woman man or modern monkey
just another happy junkie
fifty pounds, press my button
going down.

Does his makeup in his room
douse himself with cheap perfume
eyeholes in a paper bag
greatest lay I ever had
kind of guy who mates for life
gotta help him find a wife
we're a couple, when our bodies double.

pure morning:

A friend in needs a friend indeed,
A friend with weed is better,
A friend with breasts and all the rest,
A friend who's dressed in leather,

nirvana, all apologies:

What else should I be
All apologies
What else could I say
Everyone is gay



i think thats enough from me. sorry (for wasting so much space, not for not posting more. obviously. i'll check back later to see the abuse)
