I've become so numb, I can't feel you there
Become so tired, so much more aware
I'm becoming this, all I want to do
Is be more like me and be less like you

Numb, by Linkin Park
 
"Sent you a message from the bottom of my high, I'll never forget your reply."

'Jump In The Water' by Monarchy

"I'm a mirror, mirror of you. With our body we're the same."

'Lemonlime' by Purity Ring
 
Get the kids and bring a sweater
Dry is good and wind is better
Count the years, you always knew it
Strike a match, go on and do it

Sunny Came Home
Shawn Colvin
 
"Here I don't have to be quiet. Here I don't have to be kind, extraordinary, normal all at the same time."

'Everybody Scream' by Florence + The Machine
 
"My light for you, will shine forever. Sungazer. Sungazer."

'Sungazer' by The Temper Trap
 
Here we are
What is left of a husband and a wife with four good kids
Who have a way of gettin on with their lives
And I'm not old but I'm getting a whole lot older every day
It's too late to keep from goin' crazy
I've got to get away
The reasons that I can't stay, don't have a thing to do with being in love
And I understand that lovin' a man shouldn't have to be this rough
And you ain't the only one who feels like this world's left you far behind
I don't know why you gotta be angry all the time

Angry All the Time
Tom McGraw
 
Why don't we do it in the road?
Why don't we do it in the road?
Why don't we do it, do it in the road?
Why don't we do it in the road?
No one will be watching us
Why don't we do it in the road?
 
"I'm running in circles,
Creating a space I crave,
Watch me make my great escape,
Leaving a trail of simple shapes."

'simple shapes' by slenderbodies
 
Some people never come clean
I think you know what I mean
You’re walking a wire
Between pain and desire
And looking for love in between
 
"And you said, it was like fire around the brim
Burning solid, burning thin the burning rim
Like stars burning holes right through the dark"

'Sleepyhead' by Passion Pit
 
But lately you live in the jungle
I never see you alone
But we need some definite answers
So I thought I would write you a poem
The question to everyone's answer
Is usually asked from within

But the patterns of the rain
And the truth they contain
They have written my life on your skin

You treat me like I was your ocean
You swim in my blood when it's warm
My cycles of circular motion
Protect you and keep you from harm
You live in a world of illusion
Where everything's peaches and cream
We all face a scarlet conclusion
But we spend our time in a dream
 
Out on the ocean, sailing away
I can hardly wait
To see you come of age
But I guess we'll both just have to be patient
'Cause it's a long way to go
A hard row to hoe
Yes, it's a long way to go
But in the meantime
Before you cross the street
Take my hand
Life is what happens to you
While you're busy making other plans
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful
Beautiful boy

“Beautiful boy” by John Lennon
 
"And if I'm being honest, I don't want closure. I want to feel the gravity of losing you."

'Wish U Well' by underscores
 
"Holy money
Forgot about love
Found somebody
Never enough"

'Thought Leader' by HEALTH
 
"Deserted streets and neural networks lead
Me home to you, you home to me
It's obvious, yeah, it's oh-so clear
It's beautiful when you are near"

'Fire Escape in the Sea' by Sea Power
 
Crowded House- Fall at your feet
The finger of blame has turned upon itself, and I'm more than willing to offer myself
Do you want my presence or need my help? Who knows where that might lead
 
Last night I performed with my cousin’s band. He and I don’t get along very well and he’s lied to people regarding paying his band members (that’s why I quit). So I did this song…it’s not so much the lyrics as it is the title. He knew… 🙂
