Elliott Smith - Somebody That I Used to Know

I had tender feelings that you made hard
But its your heart not mine that’s scarred
So when I go home I’ll be happy to go
You’re just somebody that I used to know

You don’t need my help anymore
Its all now to you, there ain’t no before
Now that you’re big enough to run your own show
You’re just somebody that I used to know

I watched you deal in a dying day
And throw a living past away
So you can be sure that you’re in control
You’re just somebody that I used to know

I know you don’t think you did me wrong
And I can’t stay this mad for long
Keepin’ a hold of what you just let go
You’re just somebody that I used to know

Who ever said I was happy with anyone? I never said I’d never have sex again. I just won’t be in a relationship. I like it better that way now anyway. Oh, and they are sluts and thats the best part.

Also, your life is still comical to me. It just keeps getting better and better. It all worked out exactly the way I said it would.

Don’t bother saying, “You don’t know!” Because I do know and I don’t care what you have to say about it.

Cool story bro..

but I’ll keep doing what I feel like.

This brought up some memories, unfortunetly. Then I thought about it and I laughed and I realized I could never care again even if I tried. Something went wrong, now you’re too gone, so long.

Jason Lytle - You’re Too Gone

Remember when we built a good fire
Then we watched it burn down
Battling sleep, tangled in wire
Surrounded in sound

Well it was so brief
But it was so bright
We were so proud

And I stood up and said:
“Let’s do it again!”
And then I walked out

But now it’s too late
And something is wrong
Cus now you’re too gone

And though you were great
Something went wrong
Cus now you’re too gone

And I’m sorry I’m late
But I’m saying so long
Cus now you’re too gone

Yeah I’m sorry I’m late
I’m saying so long
So long, so long

Last night I missed you, and I don’t give a fuck that that’s the farthest thing from being rational.

Radiohead - No Surprises

A heart that’s full up like a landfill
A job that slowly kills you
Bruises that won’t heal
You look so tired, unhappy
Bring down the government
They don’t, they don’t speak for us
I’ll take the quiet life
A handshake of carbon monoxide

No alarms and no surprises
No alarms and no surprises
No alarms and no surprises

Silent
Silent

This is my final fit, my final belly-ache with
No alarms and no surprises
No alarms and no surprises
No alarms and no surprises, please

Such a pretty house, such a pretty garden
No alarms and no surprises
No alarms and no surprises
No alarms and no surprises, please

I actually had a dream exactly like this and I woke up nauseous, knowing that things can never be the same no matter what happens. Things can only get worse because of the way that I am, and the way you are, and because of the way the world is. It’s too bad but whatever. Nevermind.

The Warming Sun by Grandaddy

In a dream
You were sitting there waiting by the door for me
And I got the opportunity
To experience the experience once again
How it could have maybe been

But in real life
You’re in another world
You’re with another guy
Who doesn’t have to cheat
And never has to lie
And all that stuff I didn’t get
Comes so easy to him
He doesn’t even have to try

But do you ever ask yourself
How it could have maybe been

I haven’t been that bad
But I haven’t been that good
Overmisunderstood
Oh I wish I really could
Enjoy the warming sun
Enjoy a warm someone
And end the need to hide
Away alone inside

No I haven’t been that bad
But I haven’t been that good
Overmisunderstood
Oh I wish I really could
Enjoy the warming sun
Enjoy a warm someone
And end the need to hide
Away alone inside

In a dream
You were sitting there waiting by the door for me

all the happiness in the world matters nothing in the end

Pink Floyd - Wish You Were Here

So, so you think you can tell
Heaven from hell?
Blue skies from pain?
Can you tell a green field
From a cold steel rail?
A smile from a veil?
Do you think you can tell?

And did they get you trade
Your heroes for ghosts?
Hot ashes for trees?
Hot air for a cold breeze?
Cold comfort for change?
And did you exchange
A walk on part in the war
For a lead role in a cage?

How I wish, how I wish you were here
We’re just two lost souls swimming in a fish bowl
Year after year
Running over the same old ground
What have we found?
The same old fears
Wish you were here

my life just feels wrong now… but it felt wrong before. i guess i just have a wrong life haha

janicepotvin asked: VVV hahahahahahahahaha oookkkay.

okay? i’m not sure what that means.

I’m sorry for what I did, but partially I did it because it’ll be easier this way for both of us. I wasn’t being sarcastic either, I really do hope you an amazing life.

There’s one thing I want to say so I’ll be brave
You were what I wanted
I gave what I gave
I’m not sorry I met you
I’m not sorry it’s over
I’m not sorry there’s nothing to save
I’m not sorry there’s nothing to save

Stars - Your Ex-Lover Is Dead

God, that was strange to see you again
Introduced by a friend of a friend
Smiled and said, “Yes, I think we’ve met before”
In that instant it started to pour

Captured a taxi despite all the rain
We drove in silence across Pont Champlain
And all of that time you thought I was sad
I was trying to remember your name

This scar is a fleck on my porcelain skin
You tried to reach deep but you never got in
And now you’re outside me, you see all the beauty
Repent all your sin

Nothing but time and a face that you’ll lose
I chose to feel it and you couldn’t choose
I’ll write you a postcard, I’ll send you the news
From the house down the road from real love

Live through this and you won’t look back
Live through this and you won’t look back
Live through this and you won’t look back

There’s one thing I want to say so I’ll be brave
You were what I wanted
I gave what I gave
I’m not sorry I met you
I’m not sorry it’s over
I’m not sorry there’s nothing to say
I’m not sorry there’s nothing to save

I haven’t listened to Arcade Fire in forever but i got there new cd and now this songs stuck in my head :d

Arcade Fire - Sprawl II (Mountains Beyond Mountains)

They heard me singing and they told me to stop,
Quit these pretentious things and just punch the clock,
These days, my life, I feel it has no purpose,
But late at night the feelings swim to the surface.
Cause on the surface the city lights shine,
They’re calling at me, “come and find your kind.”

Sometimes I wonder if the world’s so small,
That we can never get away from the sprawl,
Living in the sprawl,
Dead shopping malls rise like mountains beyond mountains,
And there’s no end in sight,
I need the darkness someone please cut the lights.

We rode our bikes to the nearest park,
Sat under the swings, we kissed in the dark,
We shield our eyes from the police lights,
We run away, but we don’t know why,
And like a mirror these city lights shine,
They’re screaming at us, “we don’t need your kind.”

Sometimes I wonder if the world’s so small,
That we can never get away from the sprawl,
Living in the sprawl,
Dead shopping malls rise like mountains beyond mountains,
And there’s no end in sight,
I need the darkness someone please cut the lights.

They heard me singing and they told me to stop,
Quit these pretentious things and just punch the clock.

Sometimes I wonder if the world’s so small,
Can we ever get away from the sprawl?
Living in the sprawl,
Dead shopping malls rise like mountains beyond mountains,
And there’s no end in sight,
I need the darkness someone please cut the lights.
