Burn

By The Cure

"Don't look don't look" the shadows breathe

Whispering me away from you

"Don't wake at night to watch her sleep

You know that you will always lose

This trembling adored

Tousled bird mad girl... "

But every night I burn

Every night I call your name

Every night I burn

Every night I fall again

"Oh, don't talk of love." The shadows purr.

Murmuring me, away from you.

"Don't talk of worlds that never were.

The end, is all that's ever true.

There's nothing you can ever say.

Nothing you can ever do... "

Still, every night I burn

Every night, I scream your name

Every night I burn,

Every night, the dream's the same

Every night I burn,

Waiting for my only friend

Every night I burn,

Waiting for the world to end

"Just paint your face," The shadows smile.

Slipping me, away from you.

"Oh, it doesn't matter how you hide.

Find you, if we're wanting to.

So slide back down, and close your eyes.

Sleep a while, you must be tired... "

But every night I burn,

Every night, I call your name

Every night I burn,

Every night, I fall again

Every night I burn,

Scream the animal scream

Every night I burn,

Dream the crow black dream

Every night I burn,

Scream the animal scream

Every night I burn

Dream the crow black dream

Dreaming the crow black dream

Dreaming the crow black dream

Dreaming the crow black dream

Dreaming the crow black dream

Mookies Last Christmas
By Saosin

From throat and eyes, 

Came winter and reasons

I'm told to carry on

Sad overwhelms, 

My senses drown 

Oh, I feel dependent

Feeling like you were honestly gone

I can't shake it...

Make the same mistake twice

Burst of red and green all over me

Freeze the things that you love

I should let it fold over

We count the days left, 

Twenty-three

And all I know

Honestly, could I be protected

With you suddenly gone

The feeling that you were honest before

I can't shake it...

Make the same mistake twice

Burst of red and green all over me

Freeze the things that you love

I should let it fold over

Tomorrow Is A Long Time - By Bob Dylan

Tomorrow Is A Long Time
By Bob Dylan

If today was not an endless highway

If tonight was not a crooked trail

If tomorrow wasn’t such a long time

Then lonesome would mean nothing to you at all

Yes, and only if my own true love was waitin’

Yes, and if I could hear her heart a-softly poundin’

Only if she was lyin’ by me

Then I’d lie in my bed once again

I can’t see my reflection in the waters

I can’t speak the sounds that show no pain

I can’t hear the echo of my footsteps

Or can’t remember the sound of my own name

Yes, and only if my own true love was waitin’

Yes, and if I could hear her heart a-softly poundin’

Only if she was lyin’ by me

Then I’d lie in my bed once again

There’s beauty in the silver, singin’ river

There’s beauty in the sunrise in the sky

But none of these and nothing else can touch the beauty

That I remember in my true love’s eyes

Yes, and only if my own true love was waitin’

Yes, and if I could hear her heart a-softly poundin’

Only if she was lyin’ by me

Then I’d lie in my bed once again

Wish
By Ryan Johnston

Lights for darkened times

Ghosts floating in the clouds

Nightmares wrapped in dreams

Sewn to fit the memories

Stowaway, transplant hearts

Running out of oxygen

A Shipwrecked destiny

In a constellation sea

Falling like an echo

Twisted fairy tales 

Singing me to sleep

To the bone-yard underneath 

Lighting up darkened eyes

Ghosts blowing in the wind

Stars fall tauntingly

Never wish a thing, again

Valentine
By The Get Up Kids


It's words you forget, 

To anniversary songs

The bottles bite back

Your tolerance wrong

Your good intentions 

Count for little anymore

If you're sorry, why wage war?

I'm not fully convinced 

That there's something wrong with this

Could another point of view, 

Biased and untrue, 

Tear me away from you?

Will you be my valentine? 

If i'm a world away?

Apologies are breaking me

The constants, 

Aren't so constant anymore

For two days i wait 

For calls to come through

Tonight for me translates 

To yesterday, to you

You bend and you wave 

When you're barely away

I wish i could say tonight 

That when you bend

And wave goodbye 

You'd take me with you

Will you be my valentine? 

If i'm a world away?

Apologies are breaking me

The constants, 

Aren't so constant anymore

February's Stare

February's Stare

By Ryan Johnston

Valentine moon, 

Starstruck in your arms

Reeling in the night, 

But never you. Never you. 

February's sickness, 

Contagious, like your stare

I would say goodbye

But you were never really there

Never there...

You lived inside me once

And I would breathe you in like air

But distance killed the best of us

And time is a scar, not a souvenir 

You and I, we lived 

Weightless, in those times

Of summer soaked ideas

Glinting like a fire in your eyes

You and I, we died

Wasted, in the days

With the rigid winter air

Of slow motion afternoons

In the month, both of us were born

I saw a star beneath the stairs 

Glowing through the melting walls

Who will be the first to begin their fall?

Or will we become one?

Am I the star beneath the stairs?

Am I the ghost upon the stage?

Am I your anything?

I saw a star beneath the stairs 

Glowing bright before descent

And in the morning, there is nothing left 

But what's inside of me

Am I the star beneath the stairs?

Am I the ghost upon the stage?

Am I your anything?

And I don't want to die tonight

Will you believe in me?

And I don't want to fall into the light

Will you wish upon?

Will you walk upon me?

I don't want to die tonight

Will you believe in me tonight?

Am I the star beneath the stairs?

Am I the ghost upon the stage?

Am I your anything?

The Days Of The Phoenix 

By AFI

I remember when I was told of story 

Of crushed velvet, candle wax, and dried up flowers
The figure on the bed all dressed up in roses, calling
Beckoning to sleep, offering a dream

Words were as mystical as purring animals
The circle of rage
The ghosts on the stage appeared
The time was so tangible, I'll never let it go
Ghost stories handed down, reached secret tunnels below
No one could see me

I fell into yesterday
Our dreams seemed not far away
I want to, I want to, I want to stay
I fell into fantasy

The words were as mystical as purring animals
The circle of rage
The ghosts on the stage appeared
The time was so tangible, I'll never let it go
Ghost stories handed down, reached secret tunnels below
No one could see me

I fell into yesterday.
Our dreams seemed not far away
I want to, I want to, I want to stay.
I fell into fantasy

The girl on the wall always waited for me,
And she was always smiling
The teenage death boys
The teenage death girls
And everyone was dancing
Nothing could touch us then
No one could change us then
Everyone was dancing
Nothing could hurt us then
No one could see us then
Everyone was dancing
Everyone was dancing

No one could see me

I fell into yesterday
Our dreams seemed not far away
I want to, I want to, I want to stay
I fell into fantasy

Our dreams seemed not far away
Our dreams seemed not far away
Our dreams seemed not far away

I fell into fantasy

Turnpike Divides

By Thursday

Here's a thousand black cars

Driving around in my blood stream

I'd have to take a thousand pills

To find out where their headlights lead

Is it cold New York?

Is it freezing in your bed?

Because I caught a deep chill

When I went over the Hudson again

It's alright, counting city lights

Where the Turnpike divides

Waving goodbye to my former life

I don't want to be a self-medicator

But it's hard to sleep when you're born to run

I'm sick of living life in the Garden State Trap

But all the roads are pointing home again

Holy Cross has got a headstone 

All picked out for me

And my only job is to walk around 

Until I fall down at it's feet

Maybe home is just the place 

You can never escape

From the Camden City graves 

To the edge of the Palisades

It's alright, counting city lights

Where the Turnpike divides

Waving goodbye to my former life

I don't want to be a self-medicator

But it's hard to sleep, when you're born to run

I'm sick of living life in the Garden State Trap

But all the roads are pointing home again

And I'll be counting the city lights

Blinking on and off tonight 

As life passes by

And I'm left behind, 

Standing on the shoulder 

Of the Jersey Turnpike

Buildings seem to rise 

Like coffins full of stars 

Getting buried in the sky

You want to laugh and dance, to be free? 

Well, alright 

I've been thinking about those days I wanted to sleep

And you'd wake me up just before you'd leave

And I'd fall back into a dream

Walking in fresh city snow that you'd never seen

And I'd never leave your side
