Ribbons - The Sisters of Mercy

I'm lying on my back now
The stars look all too near

Flowers on the razor wire
I know you're here
We are few and far between

I was thinking about her skin
Love is a many-splintered thing
Don't be afraid now
Just walk on in

Her eyes were cobalt red
Her voice was cobalt blue
I see no

Magic Trick - M. Ward

People come, people go
Sometimes without goodbye, sometimes without hello

She's got one magic trick
Just one, and that's it
She disappears

It's like, now you see her, now you don't
You think you're gonna get to know her now, well you won't

She's got one magic trick
Just one, and that's it
She disappears

It's like, easy come, easy

I Wanna Get Better - Bleachers

Hey, I hear the voice of a preacher from the back room
Calling my name and I follow just to find you
I trace the faith to a broken down television and put on the weather
And I've trained myself to give up on the past 'cause
I froze in time between hearses and caskets
Lost control when I

My Type - Saint Motel

Take a look around the room
Love comes wearing disguises.
How to go about and choose?
Break it down by shapes and sizes.
I'm a man who's got very specific taste.

You're just my type
Oh, you got a pulse and you are breathing
You're just my type
I think it's time that we get leaving
You're just my type

What's Wrong Is Everywhere - The Jealous Sound

Dear, it's a lot
Like the way that we don't talk
Every day that I'm away, I will be there

In the parking lot with the drugs we bought
The hope I had, I haven't got a prayer
I haven't got a prayer
We're small and feeling used
You stare and stay confused
Don't say what we've

Fly - Nick Drake

Please give me a second grace
Please give me a second face
I've fallen far down
The first time around
Oh, I just sit on the ground, in your way

Now if it's time for recompense for what's done
Come, come sit down on the fence in the sun
And the clouds will roll by
And we'll never deny
It's really

Good Woman - Cat Power

I want to be a good woman
And I want, for you to be a good man.

This is why I will be leaving

And this is why, I can't see you no more.

I will miss your heart so tender
And I will love
This love forever

I don't want be a bad women
And I can't stand to

New Soul - Yael Naim

I'm a new soul
I came to this strange world
Hoping I could learn a bit 'bout how to give and take
But since I came here
Felt the joy and the fear
Finding myself making every possible mistake

La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la

See I'm a young soul
In this very strange world
Hoping I could learn a bit 'bout what is true

Many years since I was here
On the street, I was passin' my time away
To the left and to the right, buildings towering to the sky
It's outta sight in the dead of night

Here I am, and in this city
With a fistful of dollars
And baby, you'd better believe

I'm back, back in the New York Groove

In the back of my

The word that would best describe this feeling

Would be haunted

I touch the clothes you left behind
That still retain your shape and lines
Still haunted

I trace the outline of your eyes
We're in the mirror hypnotized
I'm haunted
I find a solitary hair
Gone and still I reminisce
I'm haunted

Haunted by your soul
Haunted by your hair
Haunted by your clothes
