And I know I could be more clever, and I know I could be more strong. But I’m waiting for the day you come back and say, “Hey, maybe I should change my mind.

Fun., “Out on the Town” Some Nights
Okay, last quote from this album for the night, guys.
|
And I know, ohh nooo, you’ve fallen from the sun, crashing through the clouds. I see you burning out, and I know, ohh nooo, that I put up a front. But maybe, just this once, let me keep this one.

Fun., “All Alright” Some Nights
|
Well, Some nights, I wish that this all would end, ‘cause I could use some friends for a change. And some nights, I’m scared you’ll forget me again. Some nights, I always win, I always win.

Can’t say I was never wrong
But some blame rests on you
Work and play they’re never okay
To mix the way we do
Jimmy Eat World, “Work” Futures
I’m here to tell you love is not some fucking blood on the receiver. Love is speaking in code, it’s an inside joke; love is coming home.

The Format, “If Work Permits” Dog Problems
|
There’s no blame for how our love did slowly fade
And now that it’s gone it’s like it wasn’t there at all
And here I rest where disappointment and regret collide
Lying awake at night

Death Cab for Cutie, “Title and Registration” Transatlanticism
|
You’re the echoes of my everything,
You’re the emptiness the whole world sings at night.
You’re the laziness of afternoon,
You’re the reason why I burst and why I bloom.
You’re the leaky sink of sentiment,
You’re the failed attempts I never could forget.
You’re the metaphors I can’t create to comprehend this curse that I call love..

Margot and the Nuclear So and So’s, “Talking in Code”
|
The road gets cold, there’s no spring in the meadow this year. I’m the new chicken clucking open hearts and ears. Oh, such a prima donna, sorry for myself - but green, it is also summer, and I won’t be warm ‘til I’m lying in your arms

The Weepies, “Gotta Have You” Say I Am You

I never meant you any harm, but your tears feel warm as they fall on my forearm.

Mumford and Sons, “I Gave You All” Sigh No More

I was singing this exact line earlier. <3
Cave in, cave out. Nothing but nervous doubt, waiting for the big bang to get me.

Motion City Soundtrack “Pulp Fiction”, My Dinosaur Life
|
But it’s so hard to see the reality, that the end will be the end of things and our hearts are all we get to bring. So let’s go ahead and make them worth something.
