But I'm here in my mold

If things get real for me down here,
Promise to take me to before you went away
If only for a day.

Adding up to nothing

Everybody's looking for something

And a girl could go to rot
Married to an astronaut

But I'm gonna watch and wait
For you to return some day
As you breathe silently on the opposite side
Of the bed

A girl,
Translucent as a jellyfish,
That palpitates upon a dish.
She stings you with a
Gently falling curl.

"The Ghost Ship," Robin Hitchcock

[FineyMcFine]

linked word = gently

There's a part of the country could drop off tomorrow in an earthquake,
Yeah it's out there on the cutting edge, the people move, the sidewalks shake.
And there's another part of the country with a land that gently creaks and thuds,
Where the heavy snows make the faucets leak in bathrooms with free-standing tubs.

Dar Williams, "Southern California Wants to Be Western New York"

[Foomatic]

linked word = standing

I’m standing in the middle of the desert
Waiting for my ship to come in
But now no joker, no jack, no king
Can take this loser hand
And make it win


Leaving Las Vegas, Sheryl Crow

[RaspberryHats]

Linked Word = King

I’ve been crowned the king of it, and it is all we have
So wait to hear my words and they’re diamond sharp
I can open it up and it’s up and down
It’s what I want (it’s what I want)

Pavement - "In The Mouth A Desert"

[Patches]

Linked word = words


Smile an everlasting smile, a smile can bring you near to me.
Don't ever let me find you down, cause that would bring a tear to me.
This world has lost its glory, let's start a brand new story now, my love.
Right now, there'll be no other time and I can show you how, my love.

Talk in everlasting words, and dedicate them all to me.
And I will give you all my life, I'm here if you should call to me.
You think that I don't even mean a single word I say.
It's only words, and words are all I have, to take your heart away.

Words (Bee Gees)

[tarawhipped]

Linked word = down

What is it tonight?
Please just tell me what the hell is wrong.
Do you wanna eat, do you wanna sleep, do you wanna drown?
Just settle down, settle down, settle down.
I'll give you candy, give you diamonds, give you pills,
Give you anything you want, hundred dollar bills.

"Anything, Anything," Dramarama

[ambercissism]

linked word = World

How can you just leave me standing?
Alone in a world that’s so cold? (a world that’s so cold)
Maybe I’m just too demanding (maybe, maybe I’m like my father)
Maybe I’m just like my father too bold (ya know he’s too bold)
Maybe you’re just like my mother (maybe you’re just like my mother)
She’s never satisfied (she’s never, never satisfied)
Why do we scream at each other (why do we scream, why)
This is what it sounds like

i can remember where i come from."

"Mother" by Tori Amos

[the hero factor]

Linked word = girl

This girl's romantic
But that girl is nasty
This girl's a tramp

And the language of love
The other's bangin' on me
Like an African drum

"Two Girls" -Paranoid Social Club

[FineyMcFine]

linked word = French

I'm makin' my list, checkin' it twice
Looking for a lover who is naughty and nice
Looking for an innocent with schoolboy charm
Looking for a kinky little French gendarme
Looking for a felon with a tattooed arm and a leather glove

Susan Werner, "All of the Above"

[Leafsdude]

Linked Word = Tattooed

I really miss you,
I didn't want to,
Now it's too late.

Don't know where you end,
And I begin.
You're tattooed on my soul,
Are you the part that makes me...
Whole?

Out of control, I'm in a hurricane
Hurricane

[LtSticks]

linked word = heart

Un-break my heart
Say you'll love me again
Un-do this hurt you caused
When you walked out the door
And walked outta my life
Un-cry these tears

Un-break my heart, my heart


"Unbreak My Heart" - Toni Braxton

[the hero factor]

Linked word = door

I'll always remember the sound of the stereo
The dim of the soft lights
The scent of your hair
That you twirled in your fingers
And the time on the clock
When we realized it's so late
And this walk that we shared together
And the streets were wet
And the gate was locked
So I jumped it
And I let you in
And you stood at your door
With your hands on my waist
And you kissed me like you meant it

"Hands Down" -Dashboard Confessional

Three more to go
Keep writing letters
Time's passing so slow

The soft rains of April are over
Over

[tarawhipped]

Linked word = April

Sun grows cold, sky gets black
And you broke me up
And now you won't come back.
Shaking hands, life is dead
And a broken heart and screaming head.
Hey hey.
Under the April sky.

"April Skies," The Jesus & Mary Chain

[dorksrcool]

Linked word = head

"I won't get mad when you say things are getting too hard.

I won't be left dancing alone to songs from the past."

Tegan and Sara "I Won't Be Left"

Burn the souffle
Scream a lullabye

But if you're willing to play the game
It's coming around again

[the hero factor]

Linked word = lullabye

They hung out with folks like
Dennis Hopper, Bob Seger, and Sonny and Cher
But she feels safe now
In the bar on Fairfax
And from the stage I can tell that
She can't let go and she can't relax
And just before
She hangs her head to cry
I sing to her a lullabye, I sing
Everything's gonna be all right

"Lullabye" -Shawn Mullins
