Meme: Put your music player on shuffle, and write down the first line of the first twenty songs. Post the lyrics that result. The first line of the twenty-first is the title

Real Life is so Hard

I was hanging from a tree, unaccustomed to such violence
I've got this feeling that there's something that I missed
I do not understand what it is I've done

Put your music player on shuffle

*l* ..and most of it makes sense.

Tried it

I did one and it sounded like a love song and a break up song were having a fight... maybe I should update my music...*l*

Haha, it's a lot of fun isn't it? I was surprised just how much sense my first attempt made... :D

Mine just sound weird

I don't wanna lose you

Saying I love you, is not the words I want to hear from you
Go now, don't look back.
I can't fight this feeling any longer
Time is never time at all
How can I just let you just walk away

Follow the mod squad down to Gorky Park
Hwy where did we go?
Sometimes I feel the feel the fear of uncertainty stinging clear
Two worlds colide - rival nations
Woke up to the sound of pouring rain

Back and forth I sway with the wind
In a time where the sun descends alone
I've been convicted with and without reason
Don't cry baby.
If you could only see the way she loves me

Everytime I think of you, I always catch my breath
Did you see the sky
Baby, don't understand
Another night slowly closes in
Gotta take a little time

I dunno, that first verse kinda makes sense - I wouldn't even be surprised to hear lyrics like that on the radio! However, the rest of it... not so much. :D

Here's my latest go:

Inside her in the suburbs in the sodium lights and the streets

I'm gonna pull you in close
I follow the night
A friend of mine grows his very own brambles
Heavy night, it was a heavy night

When I look upon the heaven that happened
We took a back road, we're gonna look at the stars
In the high life, I've got this feeling now
Would you like to go out tonight?

When I offer you survival
This town was built on muddy stilts
Take a long drive with me
We'll rise above this

As he came into the window
Drinking in the morning sun
Paint no illusion, try to click with whatcha got
Look, if you had one shot, or one opportunity...

Where have all the good men gone?
Is it cruel or kind not to speak my mind
When you're quiet
Standin' in the rain

... again, most is nonsense, but you do get the occasional parts that just about work. :D
