you and the night and the music

And when I see you, I really see you upside down
But my brain knows better, it picks you up and turns you around
Turns you around, turns you around
If you feel discouraged when there's a lack of color here
Please don't worry lover, it's really bursting at the seams from absorbing everything
the spectrum's A to Z.
This is fact not fiction for the first time in years
All the girls in every girlie magazine can't make me feel any less alone,
I'm reaching for the phone
to call at 7:03 and on your machine,
I slur a plea for you to come home.
But I know it's too late, and I should have given you a reason to stay
Given you a reason to stay;
given you a reason to stay;
given you a reason to stay
This is fact not fiction for the first time in years

- death cab for cutie, a lack of color

Save some face, you know you've only got one
Change your ways while you're young
Boy, one day you'll be a man
Oh girl, he'll help you understand
Smile like you mean it
Smile like you mean it
Looking back at sunsets on the Eastside
We lost track of the time
Dreams aren't what they used to be
Some things sat by so carelessly
Smile like you mean it
Smile like you mean it
And someone is calling my name
From the back of the restaurant
And someone is playing a game
In the house that I grew up in
And someone will drive her around
Down the same streets that I did
On the same streets that I did
Smile like you mean it

- the killers, smile like you mean it

I
am thinking it's a sign
that the freckles in our eyes are mirror images and when we kiss they're perfectly aligned
and I
have to speculate
that God himself did make us into corresponding shapes like puzzle pieces from the clay
true,
it may seem like a stretch,
but it's thoughts like this that catch my troubled head when you're away when I am missing you to death
when you
are out there on the road
for several weeks of shows and when you scan the radio, I hope this song will guide you home they will see us waving from such great heights,
"come down now,"
they'll say
but everything looks perfect from far away,
"come down now,"
but we'll stay...
I
tried my best to leave
this all on your machine
but the persistent beat it sounded thin upon listening
that
frankly will not fly.
you will hear the shrillest highs and lowest lows with the windows down when this is guiding you home

- the postal service, such great heights

How can you say your life is empty
So late in the day
Why would you stay another second
Now your sight got in the way
A combination
Of love and aggression
Another second lived
Don't paint the silence black now save me
Don't leave it a day
You got a right to stand or die so maybe
You take chances all the same
Pain comes in stages
If we dont make it
Nothing changes
Now the violence sleeps inside
Abandoned feeling for just a piece of mind
It's the reason why your teething side frustrates me
Now the violence sleeps inside
Abandoned feeling for just a piece of mind
It's the reason why your teething side irates me
Dont leave me to pick up on your questions
Not even a day
It's alright to finish up your sentence
You talk all the same
Pain comes in stages
if we don't make it
Nothing changes
Now the violence sleeps inside
Abandoned feeling for just a piece of mind
It's the reason why your teething side frustrates me
Now the violence sleeps inside
Abandoned feeling for just a piece of mind
It's the reason why your teething side irates me

- south, paint the silence

Maybe I'm amazed at the way you love me all the time
Maybe I'm afraid of the way I love you
Maybe I'm amazed at the way you pulled me out of time and hung me on a line
Maybe I'm amazed at the way I really need you
Maybe I'm a girl and maybe I'm a lonely girl who's in the middle of something that she doesn't really understand
Maybe I'm a girl and maybe you're the only man who could ever help me
Baby, won't you help me understand
Maybe I'm amazed at the way you're with me all the time
Maybe I'm afraid of the way I leave you
Maybe I'm amazed at the way you help me sing my song
Right me when I'm wrong
Maybe I'm amazed at the way I really need you

- jem translates maybe i'm amazed into girlese
