Thumbs Off - The Clean
and who’s gonna pay your bills today
and who’s gonna turn the girls away
and who’s gonna make you feel ok
and who’s gonna take your pills today
and you know it can’t be me
yeah you know it can’t be me
sometimes I just feel too much
and i don’t want to feel at all -

The Smiths | Well I Wonder
Well I wonder
Do you hear me when you sleep ?
I hoarsely cry
Well I wonder
Do you see me when we pass ?
I half die …
Please keep me in mind
Please keep me in mind
Gasping - but somehow still alive
This is the fierce last stand of all I am
Gasping - dying - but somehow still alive
This is the final stand of all I am
Please keep me in mind
Well I wonder
Well I wonder
Please keep me in mind
Keep me in mind
Keep me in mind -

Tomorrow by Morrissey
Tomorrow
Will it really come ?
And if it does come
Will I still be Human ?
All I ask of you is one thing that you never do
Would you put your arms around me ?
(I won’t tell anyone)
Tomorrow
Does it have to come ?
All I ask of you is one thing that you’ll never do
Would you put your arms around me ?
(I won’t tell anybody)
Tomorrow
And what must come before …
Oh, the pain in my arms
Oh, the pain in my legs
Ooh, my shiftless body
Tomorrow
It’s surely nearer now ?
You don’t think I’ll make it
I never said I wanted to !
Well did I ?
Oh, the pain in my arms
Oh, the pain in my legs
Oh, yeah; oh, yeah
No, yeah; no, yeah
Through my shiftless body
Tomorrow
Tomorrow
All I ask of you … oh …
Is : would you tell me that you love me
Tell me, tell me that you love me
Tell me, tell me that you love me
Tell me that you love me !
Ah, I know you don’t mean it
Ah, I know you don’t mean it
Tell me, tell me that you love me
Tell me, tell me that you love me
Tell me, oh, tell me, oh
Tell me, oh, tell me, oh, tell me, oh -
Jeane- Sandie Shaw & The Smiths version
Jeane
The low-life has lost its appeal
And I’m tired of walking these streets
To a room with a cupboard bare
Jeane
I’m not sure what happiness means
But I look in your eyes
And I know
That it isn’t there
We tried, we failed
We tried, and we failed
We tried and we failed
We tried and we failed
We tried
Jeane
There’s ice on the sink where we bathe
So how can you call this a home
When you know it’s a grave?
But you still hold a greedy grace
As you tidy the place
But it’ll never be clean
Jeane
We tried, we failed
We tried, and we failed
We tried and we failed
We tried and we failed
We tried
Cash on the nail
It’s just a fairytale
And I don’t believe in magic anymore
Jeane
But I think you know
I really think you know
I think you know the truth
Jeane
No heavenly choir
Not for me and not for you
Because I think that you know
I really think you know
I think you know the truth
Oh Jeane
Oh we tried, and we failed
Oh we tried, and we failed
We tried and we failed
We tried and we failed
We tried -

Today by The Smashing Pumpkins
this feels so bleak to me.
Today is the greatest
Day I’ve ever known
Can’t live for tomorrow,
Tomorrow’s much too long
I’ll burn my eyes out
Before I get out
I wanted more
Than life could ever grant me
Bored by the chore
Of saving face
Today is the greatest
Day I’ve never known
Can’t wait for tomorrow
I might not have that long
I’ll tear my heart out
Before I get out
Pink ribbon scars
That never forget
I tried so hard
To cleanse these regrets
My angel wings
Were bruised and restrained
My belly stings
Today is
Today is
Today is
The greatest day
I want to turn you on
I want to turn you on
I want to turn you on
I want to turn you
Today is the greatest
Today is the greatest day
Today is the greatest day
That I have ever really known -

i fucking love fiona.
On The Bound by Fiona Apple
All my life is on me now
Hail the pages turning
And the future’s on the bound
Hell don’t know my fury
You’re all I need, you’re all I need, you’re all I need
You’re all I need, you’re all I need, you’re all I need
You’re all I need
And maybe some faith would do me goodI don’t know what I’m doing, don’t know should I change my mind
I can’t decide, there’s too many variations to consider
No thing I do don’t do no thing but bring me more to do
It’s true, I do imbue my blue unto myself, I make it bitter
Baby, lay your head on my lap one more time
Tell me you belong to me
Baby say that it’s all going to be alright
I believe that it isn’t
You’re all I need, you’re all I need, you’re all I need
You’re all I need, you’re all I need, you’re all I need
You’re all I need
And maybe some faith would do me good
And maybe some faith would do me good
And maybe some faith would do me good -

Can’t Do It Anymore by Jay Reatard
Is this me or this future?
Who am I and who are you
They control my fever by
telling me to go insane anymore
I can’t do it anymore
I can’t do it anymore
I can’t do it anymore
I can’t do it, I can’t do it, I can’t do it
I can’t do it anymore -

It Ain’t Gonna Save Me by Jay Reatard
it ain’t gonna save me
it ain’t gonna save me no-ho
I took a walk the other day
and thought about how things used to be
and then a cloud came in the sky
it shit on me and I don’t know why
and since that day I’ve never been the same
tired and lonely with no one to blame
and in this bedroom is where I sit
cause I don’t really give a shit
it ain’t gonna save me
it ain’t gonna save me no-ho
my negativity it takes its hold
it eats on me just like a bone
it scares away the things I love
it kicks and fights and push and shoves
and since that day I’ve never been the same
tired and lonely with no one to blame
and in this bedroom is where I sit
cause I don’t really give a shit
it ain’t gonna save me
it ain’t gonna save me no-ho
all is lost there is not hope
all is lost you can’t go home
all is lost there is no hope for me
for me -

I Don’t Like It Like This by The Radio Dept.
Words fail me all the time
I don’t even feel like talking
Still I go on and on
I’m dying here and you keep walking
Why are you asking me this?
Can’t you see I’m trying?
I don’t like it like this
No I think i’m dying
I can’t calm down at all
Panic is what panic feels like
Can’t we just stay silent?
Speaking now seems far too violent
Why are you asking me this?
Can’t you see I’m trying?
I don’t like it like this
No I think I’m dying -

Time may heal the wounds
But I will kill you
Slowly fading all away
Look out your window
To what the wind blows
Slowly fading all away
I won’t stop until you’re dead
Because of voices in my head
I won’t stop until you’re dead
Helping you and hurting me
Time will heal the wounds
But I will kill you
Slowly fading all away
Hear the voices cry and
Watch the feelings die
Slowly fading all away
I won’t stop until you’re dead
Because of voices in my head
I won’t stop until you’re dead
Helping you and hurting me
Time will heal the wounds
But I will kill you
Slowly fading all away -

Lonesome tears
I can’t cry them anymore
I can’t think of what they’re for
Oh they ruin me every time
But I’ll try
To leave behind some days
These tears just can’t erase
I don’t need them anymore
How could this love
Ever turning
Never turn its eye on me
How could this love
Ever changing
Never change the way I feel
Lazy sun
Your eyes catch the light
With promises that might
Come true for a while
Oh I’ll ride
Farther than I should
Harder than I could
Just to meet you there
How could this love
Ever turning
Never turn its eye on me
How could this love
Ever changing
Never change the way I feel -

Videotape by Radiohead
When I’m at the pearly gates
This’ll be on my videotape
My videotape
My videotape
Mephistopheles is just beneath
And he’s reaching up to grab me
This is one for the good days
And I have it all here
In red blue green
In red blue green
You are my center when I spin away
Out of control on videotape
On videotape
This is my way of saying goodbye
Because I can’t do it face to face
So I’m talking to you before it’s too late
No matter what happens now
I shouldn’t be afraid
Because I know today has been the most perfect day I’ve ever seen -

“A Lover Once Can No Longer Now Be A Friend” by Panda Bear
What’s happened to my voice?
What’s happened to my voice?
I opened my mouth, but I can’t make a sound
What’s happened to my face?
What’s happened to my face?
Even my eyes don’t recognize me
What’s happened to my eyes?
What’s happened to my eyes?
What’s happened to my eyes?
I can’t see anymore
Na na na… -

Machine Gun by Portishead
I saw a saviour, a saviour come my way
I thought I’d see it in the cold light of day
But now I realise that I’m only for me
If only I could see, return myself to me
And recognise the poison in my heart
There is no other place, no one else I face
The remedy that will agree with how I feel
Here am I with plenty, what more can I say?
For I am guilty for the voice that I obey
Too scared to sacrifice the choice chosen for me
If only I could see, return myself to me
And recognise the poison in my heart
There is no other place, no one else I face
The remedy that will agree with how I feel -

All We Ever Wanted Was Everything, Bauhaus
All we ever wanted was everything
All we ever got was cold
Get up, eat jelly
Sandwich bars, and barbed wire
Squash every week into a day
The sound of drums is calling
The sound of the drum has called
Flash of youth shoot out of darkness
Factorytown
Oh to be the cream
