PROMPTS FROM "THE COSMIC SELECTOR VOL. 1" BY LORD HURON
* assorted lines from the 2025 album, adjust as necessary
with a little bit of luck, i'll find a place where i can stay forever.
spent my whole life looking back and wondering who i was.
something changed the day you left, and i'll never know just what.
something tells me you and i will never meet again.
all i want is a noisy, crowded place where i can drink.
if i need a little money, i'll sell my soul.
nothing like rain to wash you clean.
i'd never seen a sky that pale at night.
should have known it wasn't right.
i can see you're doing just fine without me.
what did you say when you left?
i believed you'd never get far without me.
how wrong was i in the end?
my tale of woe continues.
you were the only one i trusted.
let me see you one last time.
you can kiss my worthless ass goodbye.
i doubt that it's been nice to know me.
there's something not right about me.
i thought the darkness would pass.
life is a joke if you laugh.
this is how my story ends.
i'm stoned and broke and drunk again.
i'll be out there on my own.
i've got a feeling i just had to get away.
i got everything i want, and i got nothing that i need.
she made me wish that i had never let her go.
i fell in deep when you fell out of love with me.
just say the word, and i will change the life i lead.
i will push away the world just to keep you close to me.
you're the one i'll never get, and you're the one thing that i need.
i've been looking a long time.
am i ever gonna find you?
is there anybody out there?
we haven't met, but i wrote this song for you.
how the hell am i ever gonna find you?
made me feel something i've never felt before, something between awestruck and horrified.
you don't remember what i said, but you'll remember what i did.
i don't know if you care at all.
i'm just writing to say i'm alive.
i wanna feel like i did back then.
i wanna see my name in the lights again.
you got a lot to tell me, but i'd rather not know.
i was glad to see you, but it's better i go.
you didn't see me coming.
tell me when i can see you again.
i wanna quit you, but it's like a disease.
i'm waiting for you, baby.
i will always be in love with you.
one day you'll see you will always be a part of me.
it all comes back to you.
there's nothing to do. there's nowhere to go.
i'd rather die than lie to you.
i can't be sure, but i've seen this before.
i wondered where you came from.
take it and run away as far as you can go.
tell me i remind you of someone you used to know.
you seem sullen and far away.
your heart will break like mine.
grab the cigarettes. get a move on.
nothing left to keep me here, so i'll be on my way.
i'll be strange 'til the day i die.
we can cry if you want to.
let's drink. here's to us.
i'll stay forever right here if you want me to.
life is strange. tell me why.
i'm a lost cause. so are you.
is it true that you really don't dream anymore?
