But I can say it in a song

lyrics that mean something to me. perhaps they will mean something to you.

[pierog]

i'm so glad goncharov happened when it did, right before prolific public use of AI. that was pure honest gaslighting straight from the heart. real human whimsicality and trickery thru blood sweat and tears. we were a family. and we all gonched, together. you cant replicate that with any machine.

Dessa | Fire Drills

Cut my hair, tape my tits down A woman on her own must be from out of town Funny, you don’t know the concessions that you’re making until you catalog em And by then they’re many and you’re battle-hardened Heat makes liquid of the asphalt Keepsakes and parking tickets on the dashboard I'm here to file my report as the vixen of the wolf pack; Tell Patient Zero he can have his rib back [x]

Jerry Paper | Shouldn’t You Be Laughing

A bummed out Frank the Frog, yeah, he says, “Life’s a big joke.” He mumbles to the smog, “Yeah, it might as well be smoke.” He kicks a plastic bag, yeah, it wraps around his foot. He’s deep in the drag, yeah, thoughts covered in soot.

Modest Mouse | Guilty Cocker Spaniels

Before I could spit it out I guess the words had burnt my mouth What can I say? There's the thought I laid it out So you could take it out of context either way We said all along we deserve every bit And mostly we knew that the supply would quit But we got going and going just away with it Until everybody lost their minds

Man Man | Steak Knives

And are you my pet Or did I have to work so hard for nothing I know you've met the mess you'll marry He'll keep you fed But can he carry the weight of your heart? And everybody says that I'm a fool For you

Jukebox the Ghost | Oh, Emily

Don't you find it curious how we can disagree, How two of us in one place can see two different things? Don't you find it strange how we never coincide? Such a massive heartbreak, neither of us survived Spring turns into summer turns to fall You have changed but I don't change at all Fall turns into winter turns to spring You have changed but I don't change a thing Oh Emily, you're a funny girl and I didn't mean to break your heart But I'm lost and in love with everyone, and so now's as good as any as a place to start...

St. Vincent | All My Stars Aligned

I read the signs, I got all my stars aligned My amulets, my charms, I set all my false alarms So I'll be someone who won't be forgotten I've got a question and you've got the answer I'll do a dance to make the rain come Smile to keep the sky from falling down, down, down, down Collect the love that I've been given Build a nest for us to sleep in here, you know it's real

Snowmine | Nervous

I can never just say what I mean, Can only manage to say something similar. If my tongue wasn't moored to the bow of my lips Then I'd surely be able to say, That our black and white has become grey. I don't get to make you nervous. But I got to, tonight. I don't mean to make you nervous, I'm gonna have to, this time.

Brand New | The Quiet Things That No One Ever Knows

We saw the western coast I saw the hospital Nursed the shoreline like a wound Reports of lover's tryst Were neither clear nor descript We kept it safe and slow The quiet things that no one ever knows [x]

[icansayitinasong]

Jukebox the Ghost | Under My Skin

I can feel your heart beating under my skin And the beating of your heart is making me bleed from within And if we cut open your heart, poured it in a cup Do you think it'd be enough, do you think it'd be enough To fill my heart with music? Oh no, not a chance in hell Yeah, I've heard you sing but it ain't too well Heartfelt, yeah you meant so well But your song's no good 'round here

Eric Hutchinson | Ok, It’s Alright With Me

Ok it's alright with me Some people are scared to see What's happening frequently But I would never shy from a fight Heartbeat with a high demand Often will go hand in hand but I'm sick of just starting plans I wanna spend the rest of my life [x]

[icansayitinasong]

Radiohead | Optimistic

I'd really like to help you man I'd really like to help you man Nervous messed up marionette Floating around on a prison ship If you try the best you can If you try the best you can The best you can is good enough

[icansayitinasong]

Flight Facilities | Crave You

Why can't you want me like the other boys do? They stare at me while I stare at you Why can't I keep you safe as my own? One moment I have you the next you are gone Rehearsed steps on an empty stage That boy's got my heart in a silver cage Why can't you want me like the other boys do? They stare at me while I crave you

Modest Mouse | Wicked Campaign

You know I'm a bastard and we only just met I guess I probably shouldn't wear this big old sign around my neck I've still got some opinions that I'm willing to claim I'm gonna carry them around like they're some wicked campaign I started the debate, but now I'm sure I can't win I should, I probably should just exit the same way I came in Well counted, calculator, you didn't calculate this That there's a lot more nothing than you knew exists "Oh, this wicked campaign"

Daft Punk | Within

There are so many things that I don't understand There's a world within me that I cannot explain Many rooms to explore, but the doors look the same I am lost, I can't even remember my name I've been, for sometime, looking for someone I need to know now Please tell me who I am

Modest Mouse | Coyotes

Coyotes tiptoe in the snow after dark At home with the ghosts in the national parks Mankind's behavin' like some serial killers Giant ol' monsters afraid of the sharks And we're in love with all of it And we say: "What can we say?"

Phoenix | If I Ever Feel Better

No one knows the hard times I went through If happiness came I miss the call The stormy days ain't over I've tried and lost know I think that I pay the cost Now I've watched all my castles fall They were made of dust, after all Someday all this mess will make me laugh I can't wait, I can't wait, I can't wait...
