Tom's Diner - Suzanne Vega

I am sitting in the morning
At the diner on the corner
I am waiting at the counter
For the man to pour the coffee
And he fills it only halfway
And before I even argue
He is looking out the window
At somebody coming in

"It is always nice to see you"
Says the man behind the counter
To

Winona - Matthew Sweet

I tried to call you, but the line was busy
Were you talking to a friend?
And when I tried again much later
I didn't want to let it ring again

So you can see I've got a problem
Back by popular demand
Sometimes, I want to keep it from you
Sometimes, I think you'll understand

Could you be my little

Missionary Man - Eurythmics

Well, I was born an original sinner
I was born from original sin
And if I had a dollar bill for all the things I've done
There'd be a mountain of money piled up to my chin, hey!

My mother told me good, my mother told me strong
She said, "Be true to yourself, and you can't go wrong
But there's

Arrow - The Head And The Heart

You caught me staring off the cliff again
And looking down on everyone
Wish my goodbyes could be more innocent
But every part just wants to run

I have this deep, deep feeling in my ribs again
I just keep, keep, keep moving on
Like the deep, deep current on the riverbed
I have to keep, keep, keep

This Is The Day - The The

Well, you didn't wake up this morning 'cause you didn't go to bed
You were watching the whites of your eyes turn red
The calendar on your wall is ticking the days off
You've been reading some old letters
You smile and think how much you've changed
All the money in the world couldn't buy back those days

Heart Shaped World - Chris Isaak

Trouble, going round. Trouble, going down.
What happened to you, little baby?
What happened to you little girl?
She said she'd always love you.
In your heart-shaped world.

Trouble, going round.
Trouble in this town.
What happened to you little baby?
What happened to you little girl?
She left you out there crying in your heart-shaped world.

I know

Shadowplay - Joy Division

To the center of the city where all roads meet, waiting for you,
To the depths of the ocean where all hopes sank, searching for you,

I was moving through the silence without motion, waiting for you,
In a room with a window in the corner, I found truth.

In the shadowplay, acting out your own death, knowing no more,
As

California Stars - Billy Bragg & Wilco

I'd like to rest my heavy head tonight
On a bed of California stars
I'd like to lay my weary bones tonight
On a bed of California stars

I'd love to feel
Your hand touching mine
And tell me why
I must keep working on

Yes I'd give my life
To lay my head tonight on a bed

Overcome - Nothing But Thieves

I don't wanna fight
My money's in a bag in the back for you
The future's overdue
Yeah, I know that

Turn the engine on
Our song blaring out a dead radio
Singing "I Need To Know"
No turning back

I've been thinkin', babe, maybe you're right
When you said the pain weathers in time
We're just waiting for a

These Days - Nico (originally by Jackson Browne)

I've been out walking
I don't do too much talking these days
These days
These days I seem to think a lot
About the things that I forgot to do
And all the times I had
The chance to

I stopped my rambling
I don't do too much gambling these days
These days
These days I seem

Halah - Mazzy Star

Well I think I see another side
Maybe just another light that shines
And I look over now through the door
And I still belong to no one else
Maybe I hold you to blame for all the reasons
That you left.
And close my eyes, still I see your surprise
And you're leaving before my time.
Baby won't you change

Strawberry Jam - COIN

I think there's something I'm running from
Or is it just who I am?
I leave you there in a parking lot
Do it again and again
I told you I would come back for you
And bring you strawberry jam
You said, "you fell in love with a pretty mouth
It'll chew you up, it'll spit you out"

She likes
