Solace my game. Solace my game, it stars you. Swing wide your crane, swing wide your crane and run me through. And the story’s all over, in the morning I’ll call you. Can’t you find a clue— when your eyes are all painted Sinatra blue. What might have been lost, what might have been lost -Bon Iver

Every day is a battle I face, strange life I live but its what you’ve decided. I’ll give it all into your hands, do what you will with me, and oh I’ll smile when you speak—remember all those times I was hoping for something? And shaking my head from all I have done, but you never left me. Ooh la love, I’ve fallen in love, and it’s better this time than ever before. Ooh la love, I’ve...

You cut me down a tree and brought it back to me, and that’s what made me see where I was going wrong. You put me on a shelf and kept me for yourself, I can only blame myself, you can only blame me. And I could write a song, a hundred miles long-well, that’s where I belong and you belong with me. And I could write it down or spread it all around, get lost and then get found or...

I was walking far from home and I found your face mingled in the crowd, saw a boat-full of believers sail off talking too loud, talking too loud. I saw sunlight on the water, saw a bird fall like a hammer from the sky; an old woman on a speed train, she was closing her eyes, closing her eyes -Iron & Wine

And meet me there, bundles of flowers, we wait through the hours of cold. Winter shall howl at the walls, tearing down doors of time. Shelter as we go and promise me this; you’ll wait for me only, scared of the lonely arms. Surface, far below these words—Maybe, just maybe I’ll come home -Ben Howard

They say it fades if you let it, love was made to forget it. I carved your name across my eyelids, you pray for rain I pray for blindness. -The Arcade Fire

There’s so much craziness surrounding me, there’s so much going on it gets hard to breathe. When all my faith has gone you bring it back to me, you make it real for me. Well I’m not sure of my priorities, I’ve lost site of where I’m meant to be and like holy water washing over me. When my head is strong but my heart is weak—I’m full of arrogance and...

She’s just a cosmic girl from another galaxy, my heart’s at zero gravity. She’s from a cosmic world putting me in ecstasy, transmitting on my frequency. She’s cosmic -Jamiroquai

I hate to see you cry, lying there in that position. There’s things you need to hear, so turn off your tears and listen: pain throws your heart to the ground, love turns the whole thing around. No, it won’t all go the way it should but I know the heart of life is good. You know, it’s nothing new bad news never had good timing. Then, circle of your friends, will defend the silver...

We spent some time together walking, spent some time just talking about who we were. You held my hand so very tightly and told me what we could be dreaming of. There’s nothing like you and I -The Perishers

If it’s true, I don’t mind— There’s a million other things that keep me up at night, maybe it’s not quite right but we’ll find out if it’s true. The coast is never clear, answers always beyond our reach -Yo La Tengo

Now I can walk the stones of the shoreline and taste the ocean salt when the cold shines. My words are rolling soft down your south side. I, now I will show you, it’s how I lie when no one told you! So ride, Sherry, ride, Sherry, ride -Young The Giant

This year, we’re starting over again. Letter openers in hand, a chance to take a chance. I swear, I understand that the past will be the past and nothing changes that, but the future is brighter than any flashback. -Sleeping At Last

what if a dawn of a doom of a dream bites this universe in two, peels forever out of his grave and sprinkles nowhere with me and you?

I like to think (and the sooner the better) of a cybernetic meadow where mammels and computers live together in mutually programming harmony like pure water touching clear sky. -Richard Brautigan

I’ll follow you. The leaf that’s following the sun—When will my weight be too much for you? When will these ideas really be my own? Cause this moment keeps on moving, we were never meant to hold on -Jack Johnson

And you see trouble in her eyes and you’ve noticed but only realized. It’s not fading how ever hard you try ‘cause it’s built in a former life. I’m not alone, she said “I’m not alone” -Lucy Rose

Good day sunshine. I need to laugh, and when the sun is out. I’ve got something I can laugh about, I feel good, in a special way. I’m in love and it’s a sunny day -The Beatles

I say you the bestest, lean in for a big kiss. Put his favorite perfume on—Go play a video game. It’s you, it’s you, it’s all for you, everything I do. I tell you all the time heaven is a place on earth with you, tell me all the things you want to do. I heard that you like the bad girls, honey, is that true? It’s better than I ever even knew, they say that the world...

Walked you to your car that night down the street of Valentine. Your heart was right we were cold and waiting in the front seat of your Rav, I knew someday I’d have to ask if you would. I never knew how to say how it went down, but somehow it turned out and you somehow knew it would

And she woke up in a cold sweat on the floor next to a family portrait drawn when you were four, and beside a jar of two cent coins that are no good no more. She’ll lay it aside -The Middle East

You’d be damned to be one of us girl, faced with a dodo’s conundrum. Ah, I felt like I could just fly but nothing happened every time I tried.

Let’s get wrecked on pop tarts and snacks and see the Taj Mahal, let’s save birds from Prince William Sound and skateboard through the mall! Let’s fight crime with mangoes and limes and join the PGA, let’s win big with every spin but hurry, I can’t wait! -Motion City Soundtrack
