track list && liner notes under the cut
out of my league – fitz and the tantrums
Forty days and forty nightsI waited for a girl like youTo come and save my lifeRecall the days I waited for youYou know the ones who saidI’d never find someone like you
You were out of my leagueAll the things I believeYou were just the right kindYeah, you are more than just a dream
You were out of my leagueGot my heartbeat racingIf I die don’t wake me‘Cause you are more than just a dream
this is for real – motion city soundtrack
I had some nightmaresClawing at my skin and bonesI nearly did explodeYou smote the demonsGave me back my feelingsNow I am good to goBefore my face hits the floorThere’s just one thing you should know
This is for real, this time I mean itI’m coming clean, please don’t let goI said from the startThat you could take it or leave itI’d prefer that you keep itDon’t let go
This is the best thing that I’ve ever had for real
f.n.t. – semisonic
Fascinating new thingThe scene-makin’Want a temporary savior
Fascinating new thingDon’t betray themBy becoming familiar
I’m surprised that you’ve never been told beforeThat you’re lovely and you’re perfectAnd that somebody wants you
I’m surprised that you’ve never been told beforeThat you’re priceless and you’re preciousEven when you are not new
summertime clothes – animal collective
It doesn’t really matter, I’ll go where you feelHunt for the breeze, get a midnight mealI point in the windows, you point out the parksRip off your sleeves and I’ll ditch my socks
We’ll dance to the songs from the cars as they passWeave through the cardboard, smell that trashWalking around in our summertime clothesNowhere to go when our bodies glow
And we’ll greet the dawn in its morning bluesWith purple yawn you’ll be sleeping soonAnd I want to walk around with youAnd I want to walk around with you
Don’t cool off, I like your warmth
the saltwater room – owl city
Time together is just never quite enoughWhen you and I are aloneI’ve never felt so at homeWhat will it take to make or break this hint of love?We need time, only time
When we’re apart whatever are you thinking of?If this is what I call homeWhy does it feel so alone?So tell me, darling, do you wish we’d fall in love?All the time, all the time
saved – the spill canvas
I am unbreakableBut it looks like I could sometime soonAnd you are unreachableAbout as possible as me touching the moon
I am unraveling unbearably emptyAnd if this ground gives wayI just hope that you’ll catch me
You came and saved me tonightDefending all my lifeOh now I’m content with my breath‘Cause I’m alive
And this is the epitome of everythingYou see in the moviesAnd this world is a time bomb tickingAnd I think I can stop it if you help me
believe – the bravery
So give me something to believeCause I am living just to breatheAnd I need something moreTo keep on breathing forSo give me something to believe
Something’s always comingYou can hear it in the groundIt swells into the airWith the rising, rising soundAnd never comes but shakes the boardsAnd rattles all the doorsWhat are we waiting for
I am hiding from some beastBut the beast was always hereWatching without eyesBecause the beast is just my fear
galaxies – owl city
Oh telescopeKeep an eye on my only hope‘Lest I blink and be swept off the narrow roadHercules, you’ve got nothing to say to me‘Cause you’re not the blinding light that I need
For he is the saving graceOf the galaxiesHe is the saving graceOf the galaxies
Dear God, I was terribly lostWhen the galaxies crossedAnd the sun went darkBut dear God, you’re the only north starI would follow this far
i think i love you – the guggenheim grotto
You see it’s not that I do or don’t believeIt’s that I just don’t not believe inGod and aliens and love at first sight
Last night I couldn’t get back to sleepWatching you lying next to meAnd for a moment every last part of me felt rightCome morning reason don’t agreeHe’s saying boy that’s a fool thing to believeOh but girl, the way you make me feelI wanna say itHell, I wanna scream
Maybe I should wake you upAnd tell you there and thenBetter still I’ll leave you beAnd whisper it subliminallyOver and over again and again
I think I love youI think I love youI think I love you
the origin of love – mika
I want your love don’t try and stop meCan’t get enough, still hanging on meYour guilty heart, don’t let it break youAnd if you pray well no one’s gonna save you
Like everyone that you fearAnd everything you hold dearEven the book in your pocketYou are the sun and the lightYou are the freedom I fightGod will do nothing to stop itThe origin is youYou’re the origin of love
promise the stars – we the kings
Maybe I’m down low Maybe I’m up high Maybe I’m losing my own mind You know that there are no other two heartsCloser than ours
Maybe you’ll follow Maybe you’ll stay I’m praying you won’t give yourself away You know that you are the only one I promise the stars You are
you can do better than me – death cab for cutie
I’m starting to feelWe stayed together out of fear of dying aloneI’ve been slipping through the yearsMy old clothes don’t fit like they once didSo they hang like ghosts of the people I’ve been
It’s like my heart can’t be tamedI fall in love every dayAnd I feel like a fool
I have to face the truthThat no one could ever look at me like you doLike I’m something worth holding on to
do i wanna know? – arctic monkeys
Have you no idea that you’re in deepI dreamt about you nearly every night this weekHow many secrets can you keep?
‘Cause there’s this tune I foundThat makes me think of you somehowWhen I play it on repeatUntil I fall asleepSpilling drinks on my settee
(Do I wanna know?)If this feeling flows both ways(Sad to see you go)Was sorta hoping that you’d stay(Baby we both know)That the nights were mainly made for sayingThings that you can’t say tomorrow day
one thing is for sure – the spill canvas
Sometimes when I let my mind run freeIt never fails, it goes right to youAnd a smile takes a hold of meI miss the way your body burnsWhen we melt alone
There are things in this worldThat I don’t understandLike love, war, gravityOr the lay of the landBut all of these remain mysteriesBut one thing is for sure:You are worth living for
drive you home – garbage
It’s funny how even nowYou still support meAfter all the things that I’ve doneYou’re so good to meWaiting patienlyAnd isn’t it sadThat you still have to ask if I care?
I got down on myselfWorking too hardDriving myself to deathTrying to beat out the faults in my headWhat a mess I’ve madeSure we all make mistakesBut they see me so largeThat they think I’m immune to the pain
come what may – the scene aesthetic
For the longest timeI thought I’d lost the best of meBut I’ll be damned if I quit nowAnd that’s for sure
All I ever wanted was for youTo look at me and know I’m all yours
Like the penguins need their wingsFor deep cold-water dives.Like the earth needs the moonTo keep it on courseWhen you touch me I knowThere is purpose in my lifeJust know I’m all yours
i could die for you – red hot chili peppers
Something inside the cardsI know is rightDon’t want to liveSomebody else’s lifeThis is what I want to beAnd this is what I give to youBecause I get it freeShe smiles while I do my time
I could die for youOh this life I choose
Come again and tell meWhere you want to goWhat it means for meTo be with you aloneClose the door andNo one has to knowHow we are
leave out all the rest – linkin park
I dreamed I was missingYou were so scaredBut no one would listenCause no one else caredAfter my dreamingI woke with this fearWhat am I leavingWhen I’m done here?
So, if you’re asking me, I want you to knowWhen my time comesForget the wrong that I’ve doneHelp me leave behind some reasons to be missedAnd don’t resent meAnd when you’re feeling emptyKeep me in your memory
Leave out all the rest
