12:51 - The Strokes

Talk to me now I'm older
Your friend told you 'cause I told her
Friday nights have been lonely
Change your plans and then phone me

We could go and get forties
Fuck going to that party
Oh really, your folks are away now?
Alright, let's go, you convinced me

12:51 is the time my voice
Found the words I sought

Tranz - Gorillaz

Oscillate yourself tonight
When you're in your bed
Assimilate the dopamine
Passing through your head

When you get back on a Saturday night
And the room is caving in
Do you look like me, do you feel like me
Do you turn into your effigy
Do you dance like this forever

See yourself in Cupid's lake
Chipped in your head
Do you

Fifteen Feet Of Pure White Snow - Nick Cave and The Bad Seeds

Where is Mona?
She's long gone
Where is Mary?
She's taken her along
But they haven't put their mittens on
And there's fifteen feet of pure white snow?

Where is Michael?
Where is Mark?
Where is Mathew
Now it's getting dark?
Where is John? They are all out back
Under fifteen feet

Glory Box - Portishead

I'm so tired of playing
Playing with this bow and arrow
Gonna give my heart away
Leave it to the other girls to play
For I've been a temptress too long
Just...

Give me a reason to love you
Give me a reason to be a woman
I just wanna be a woman

From this time, unchained
We're all looking at

Sound And Vision - David Bowie

Don't you wonder sometimes
'Bout sound and vision?

Blue, blue, electric blue
That's the colour of my room
Where I will live
Blue, blue
Pale blinds drawn all day
Nothing to read, nothing to say
Blue, blue
I will sit right down
Waiting for the gift of sound and vision
And I will sing
Waiting for the gift of

In The Dark - Grabbitz

I wish you didn't care
I wish you'd notice if I wasn't there
What if I did disappear?
Would you find me?
Would you find me in the dark?

In the dark
Find me in the dark
Dark
In the dark

I'm packing up my mistakes
I'll send you some
Back and forth fighting like a pendulum
Swinging until my

The Ocean - Sunny Day Real Estate

All around
I see you're under my skin
Cruel to say
I've known the best of my life

Never again to hear
The rivers' song so clear

Everyday's another scene
The world around and everything for you
An open door a cauldron of
Waves rush in through every house for all
So they say another lie:
'Love's a

Under The Milky Way - The Church

Sometimes when this place gets kind of empty
Sound of their breath fades with the light
I think about the loveless fascination
Under the Milky Way tonight

Lower the curtain down in Memphis
Lower the curtain down all right
I got no time for private consultation
Under the Milky Way tonight

Wish I knew what you were looking

Jonathon Fisk - Spoon

Maybe you remember maybe you're locked away
Maybe we'll meet again some better day some better life

Mmmm Jonathon Fisk speaks with his fists
Can't let me walk home on my own
And just like a knife down on my life
So many ways to set me right

It's such a long way home
It's how the story goes
And it's

@richsquared the counting teeth line creeps me out. I love the atom bombs and blunt razors line. Spoon is criminally underrated

100% underrated! I had a few of their albums on cassette tape. The good old days 😁

Pink Moon - Nick Drake

I saw it written and I saw it say
Pink moon is on its way
And none of you stand so tall
Pink moon gonna get you all

It's a pink moon
It's a pink moon
Pink, pink, pink, pink
Pink moon

The pink, pink, pink, pink
Pink moon

I saw it written and I saw it say

Breathe Underwater (Slow) - Placebo

Here comes another fall from grace
I'm always falling on my face (oh oh)
This attitude that I embrace
For the love I'm trying to replace (oh oh)

I try to kill the song
'Cause the melody's all wrong
And there's a fever coming on

I try to kill the song
'Cause the melody's all wrong
And there's a fever
