I have officially lost control of my life.
how far we've come ; matchbox 20
i believe the world is burning to the ground
oh well, i guess we're gonna find out
let's see how far we've come
let's see how far we've come
(waking up at the start of the end of the world, but it's feeling just like every other morning before.)
beady eyes on the horizon ; jukebox the ghost
this was a story told to me
when i was just the age of seventeen,
one which god himself dictated to me
he said, this is how all this shit's gonna be
when i blow your little planet into smithereens
(they are looking through a hurricane's tectonic wall of sound and a man who smokes his cigarettes the other way around.)
all my friends ; lcd soundsystem
that's how it starts
we go back to your house
you check the charts
and start to figure it out
and if it's crowded, all the better
because we know we're gonna be up late
but if you're worried about the weather
then you picked the wrong place to stay
(you spent the first five years trying to get with the plan, and the next five years trying to be with your friends again.)
actor out of work ; st. vincent
you're a boxer in the ring
with brass knuckles underneath
you're the curses through my teeth
you're the laughter, you're the obscene
(you're a cast-signed broken arm, you're an actor out of work, i think i love you, i think i'm mad.)
tick tick boom ; the hives
yeah, yeah, yeah
i was right, you were wrong
yeah, yeah, yeah
going, going, you're gone
i saw you yesterday, waiting too much
'til it slipped through your hands
and then you stagger to your feet and out the door
'cause there's no second chance
(it's too late, it's too soon, or is it - tick tick tick tick tick tick tick boom!)
don't panic ; coldplay
and we live in a beautiful world
yeah we do, yeah we do
we live in a beautiful world
(home, places we've grown, all of us are done for.)
charlotte ; air traffic
losing, I'm losing all my fame
and i can't stand the days
that i'm alone
tell me, do you feel the same
and are you glad i came
and can i walk you home?
(help me realize that i'm in love, i'm in love, i'm in love.)
my year in lists ; los campesinos!
damn extended metaphors, i get carried away
on the back of a natural disaster
fixed with parcel tape and with kids sticking plaster
nothing says i miss you quite like
war poetry carved in your door with a stanley knife
(i cherish with fondness the day before i met you.)
