so, i found some interesting things searching through brendon’s twitter, and maybe this makes me a crazy fan girl that looks too far into things, but w/e. it’s not like we all didn’t know this already.
warning: if you dont believe in ryden or that it ever existed and are going to put up a big fuss, don't even bother looking here.
these are basically the lyrics to all the songs bden has quoted since the split and a little bit before. all the lyrics i found seemed pretty clearly related to the split/ryan and how he still loves him. there was also a few things i found in there that could relate to his new "lifestyle" *cough* coke *cough*.
(listed in chronological order from latest tweets to back before the split)
The latest tweet is
here, which was a quote from the movie
That Thing That You Do “Summary Capsule: The Oneders Wonders, a group of young musicians in the mid 60s, record a hit tune and skyrocket to fame… maybe a bit too quickly. Can the band work out their differences, or will they end up as the one-hit Wonders?”
“the protagonist of feel-good period comedy That Thing You Do!, my favorite character is easily Lenny, the smart aleck who doesn’t take anything seriously and is prone to dropping random quips at any given time." (Bden, y/y?)
"Jimmy (RYAN?) wants to concentrate on more serious songs and make another record; their bass player enlisted in the Marines and will be leaving soon; and smartass Lenny is just looking to tune some pretty young thing’s guitar.If you can decipher my cryptic innuendo. Wink wink." (HAHAHAHAHA)
I think this part is pretty self explanatory.

Next is here
here, which was
Gareth Gates - Unchained Melody.
Lonely rivers flow to the sea, to the sea
To the open arms of the sea
(see post
here)
Oh, my love, my darling
I've hungered for your touch
A long, lonely time
And time goes by so slowly
And time can do so much
Are you still mine?
*

here, which was
Sublime - don’t push I read this and didn’t see how it could relate to Ryan until I got to the last stanza;
people wanna come up and they wan' tell me
smokin' crack cocaine better than sensi
your're puffin' that shit yo we're sick of it
tweakin' every weekend and we just can't take it
whoa-oh, we no wan' glass dick
bo! bo! bo!
*
here, which was
Fun - Be Calm..
Oh why haven't you been there for me?
I know you feel like you are breaking down.
I know that it gets so hard sometimes.
Be calm.
"After all, you lost your band, you left your mom."
You hate your pulse because it thinks you're still alive
and everything's wrong
It just gets so hard sometimes
*
here, which was
Goo Goo Dolls - I Wanna Wake Up Where You Are..
Do you wake up on your own
And wonder where you are
You live with all your faults
Don't you love the life you killed
The priest is on the phone
Your father hit the wall
Your ma disowned you
*
here, which was
Sandra Reemer - Goodnight Sweetheart, goodnight..
I hate to see you go baby don't mean maybe
Because I love you so
*
here, which was
Louis Armstrong - As Time Goes By.
And when two lovers woo
They still say, "I love you"
On that you can rely
No matter what the future brings
*
Next was
here, which was
Pearl Jam - Cant Find A Better Man. Basically, the whole thing is pretty clear, but a few parts that stuck out were:
Memories back when she was bold and strong
And waiting for the world to come along...
Swears she knew it, now she swears he's gone
She loved him, yeah... she don't want to leave this way
She feeds him, yeah... that's why she'll be back again
*
Here, which was
The Jackson 5 - The Love You Save.
Stop! the love you save may be your own!
Darling, take it slow
Or some day youll be all alone.
Youd better stop the love you save may be your own!
Darling, look both ways before you cross me
Youre headed for the danger zone.
Im the one who loves you!
Im the one you need!
*
Here was from
Rod Stewart - Forever Young.
But whatever road you choose
I'm right behind you, win or lose.
*
Here was another that i couldn't really copy and paste from
Pet Shop Boys - Loosing My Mind.
*
This This one was kind of interesting... It was from
Lloyd Cole - Viscious.
you`re not the kind of person around whom i want to stay
vicious, why don`t you go swallow razor blades
you must think i`m some kind of gay blade? uh uh
Gay blade, hahaha.
*
Next one was from
Amy Grant - Baby, Baby.
And ever since the day you put my heart in motion
Baby I realize that theres just no getting over you.
*
LOL,
This one was personally my favorite. It's from
Jet Song - West Side Story.
RIFF: (Spoken) Against the Sharks we need every man we got.
ACTION: (Spoken) Tony don't belong any more.
RIFF: Cut it, Action boy. I and Tony started the Jets.
ACTION: Well, he acts like he don't wanna belong.
BABY JOHN: Who wouldn't wanna belong to the Jets!
ACTION: Tony ain't been with us for over a month.
SNOWBOY: What about the day we clobbered the Emeralds?
A-RAB: Which we couldn't have done without Tony.
BABY JOHN: He saved my ever-lovin' neck!
RIFF: Right! He's always come through for us and he will now.
When you're a Jet,
You're a Jet all the way
From your first cigarette
To your last dyin' day.
When you're a Jet,
If the spit hits the fan,
You got brothers around,
You're a family man!
You're never alone,
You're never disconnected!
You're home with your own:
When company's expected,
You're well protected!
Then you are set
With a capital J,
Which you'll never forget
Till they cart you away.
When you're a Jet,
You stay a Jet!
Jets = Panic, Tony = Ryan, y/y?

This was in reference to Bruno, but in the
tweet before it he had already stated "b) i love you" so it seems kind of weird that he'd make another tweet right after stating the same thing.
*
This tweet was posted the day (or the day after?) the Ryan Cocaine
picture came out.
*
Here was from
Jammin - Bob Marley.
Jam's about my pride and truth I cannot hide
Too Keep you satisfied.
True love that now exist is the love I can't resist
So jam by my side.
Bden doesn't want to keep hiding the truth about the split (the coke and such?) just because ryan wants him to.
*
This one kind of broke my heart, ngl. Again, I'd end up copying and pasting the whole thing. It's from
The Cardigans - Lovefool. Please note this was a week or so before they announced their split.
(I was thinking this was around the time when they decided to split for real, and Brendon felt that it was his fault because Ryan didn't love him anymore and he was begging him not leave him and/or the band.)
*
The last
one (or first, i guess, depending on which way you look at it) is from
Frank Sinatra - The Good Life It's the good life, full of fun, seems to be the ideal,
Yes, the good life, lest you hide all the sadness you feel,
You won't really fall in love 'cause you can't take the chance,
So be honest with yourself, don't try to fake romance.
Please remember I still want you and in case you wonder why,
Well, just wake up, kiss that good life goodbye.
about Ryan and his new lifestyle and how he's using coke and alcohol to hide his inner emo - which, come on, we all know its still there - and that one day it'll come to an end. Also, that Ryan wont fall in love because he's gay and wont admit it ("wont take the chance") so he has "fake romances" with girls.

Spencer’s Twitter
tweet from
Reed Lou - Oh Jim Oh Jim, how could you treat me this way
Hey hey
How could you treat me this way ?
You know you broke my heart
Ever since you went away
Now you said that you love us
But you only make love to one of us
*
tweet from
Your Ego is Not Your Amigo (most of the lyrics on this site are about addiction, alcohol & drugs)
Your ego is not your amigo
Mescal is not your pal
Senor, you need step four
Por favor, no tequila no more
You drank up all your dinero
Threw up your huevos rancheros
Muy loco beneath your sombrero
Say si si, buenos dias to sobriety
Your ego is not your amigo
Holla! You don't know mierda from shinola
Sober hombres will make you their friend
Step ten will make you muy bien
It's a Mexican standoff today
El morte is headed your way
El diablo is shouting "Ole!"
Say si si! Buenos dias to sobriety
Your ego is not your amigo
Mescal is not your pal

here And there you have it, all my findings. IK IK, you dont need to tell me, I need a life, but hey, at least it brought me amusement. Hopefully it did to at least some of you too?
what i learned: bden is a sneaky bastard.
