melwilSo, I don't have a playlist on my computer, due to lack of sound. So half of these songs are from this old mixed tape I found, and the other half from putting the CD's from my case into the stero and pressing shuffle.
1.“They're like chocolate cake, like cigarettes. I know they're bad for me, but I just can't leave them alone.”
2.“Kiss the day good bye, the sweetness and the sorrow, wish me luck, the same to you.”
3.“Another ditch in the road, you keep moving.”
4.“Where the churches don't have windows, but the graveyards do. Me and my shadow are wrestling again.”
5.“For all the wrong that you made right.”
6.“Salt has pepper, black has white, intrigue has boredom, wrong has right.”
7.“We could see that you weren't yourself. And the lines of your face did tell, it's just as well, you'd never be yourself again.”
8.“Wind down the windows and ride down seventy-five”
9.“I feel just like I'm sinking, and I claw for solid ground.”
10.“Consoled a cup of coffee, but it didn't want to talk.”
11. "You never seem to want to dance anymore."
12. "They gonna recognise my eyes, my hair, my teeth, my boobs, my nose."
13. "The smell of cold, car seat is freezing. The world is sleeping, I am numb"
14. "I was running down the road, barefoot, just to get there first."
15. "I met this girl she looked like Axle Rose. Got drunk and took her home and we slept in her clothes."
16. "Now I know all the wrong turns, the stumbles and falls, brought me here."
17. "I'm just a poor girl, don't you care?"
18. "I guess we didn't fool anyone, for any part of the time."
19. "The dizzy dancing way that you feel."
20. "I don't believe in the existance of angels."
Go on. Guess. (Gee, there's a lot of one artist in there)
While I was typing these up, I was thinking of how much fun it would be to go and find someone who has done this, to pick one lyric and write a ficlet about that lyric *g*
