  1. 🎧 Miya Folick — So Clear

    I was torn between two bad decisions
    Standing on the side of the road
    Looking in the eyes of a strange
    Who told me I’d be nothing alone
    But I said no, no
    Just watch me go

    10,000 days of waking up
    I pull myself out of the dust
    I’m sun and sea
    So suddenly
    So clear to me so clear to me

  2. 🎵 Gotye — Night Drive

    And I don't know just where we're going
    And I don't care where we've been
    But we just coast on through
    Coz while I'm here with you, you know
    There's no place I'd rather be
    No place I'd rather be

    You're feeling tired
    And I'm bleary-eyed
    And we don't even recognise
    A single name on the street signs
    Nothing else is calling us

  3. 🎵 Wisdom of Crowds - The Light

    It's hopeless here I know
    But hopeless we will go
    Into the days
    The days that drop like flies
    If there's one thing you should know
    The last day we will go
    Into the dark with nothing left inside

  4. Curse or repayment
    Truth or illusion
    (In my) noble asylum

    When dark hours linger
    The sinister silence
    Is bowed into millions of tears

    The sweetness of sound
    Turns to raging thunder

    A deadly serenade in the moonlight
    The bringer of pain
    Like fear on a silver plate
    I am frozen, betrayed by myself
    When will this end?

  5. Sedated
    Turning myself in
    Complicated
    The more you hurt
    The more I love you
    Vacated
    The sickness tears my skin
    Terminated
    The more you hurt
    The more I love you

  6. Your feelings and mine are all lonely
    And dawn comes, you're there lying with me
    And you reach out to touch me
    But I am in the twilight
    Your feelings and mine are all holy but
    You know, and I know it's untrue because
    When day dawns, you're there lying with me
    And the dawn can fly away

  7. 🎵 Taylor Swift - this is me trying

    And it's hard to be at a party
    When I feel like an open wound
    It's hard to be anywhere these days
    You're a flashback in a film reel
    On the one screen in my town

    And I just wanted you to know
    That this is me trying (maybe I don't quite know what to say)
    I just wanted you to know
    That this is me trying

    At least I'm trying

  8. I saw your dust in the airspace
    I saw the shadow fall on the runway
    I saw your mindset change
    In the blink of an eye
    Mesmerized

    You will take the skies
    Leaving me stranded
    We trade our goodbyes
    You're leaving me behind
    You will find your way
    And your hideout is ever changing
    From here on out

  9. A barbiturate is a drug that acts as a central
    Nervous system depressant and can therefore
    Produce a wide range of effects
    From mild sedation to death
    Produce a wide range of effects
    From mild sedation to death

  10. 🎵 Radiohead – All I Need

    It's all wrong, it's all wrong, it's all wrong
    It's all right, it's all right, it's all right
    It's all wrong, it's all right
    It's all right, it's all right

  11. Come closer to me
    I will help you see
    Mind my silver tongue
    And let me help you child

    I know you can't do anything
    Without your conscience knowing
    But your world
    It's slipping through your hands

    I have all the answers
    Don't waste your time on prayers
    No one will know you as I do

  12. 🎵 Delta Sleep — Afterimage

    Soft sound so soothing whisk her away
    Far from the border, towards brighter days
    The City is something that sits so deep in the back of her head while she's asleep: "Find home, again"

  13. #LyricalMonday

    🎵 WIthout Prejudice by Protest the Hero

    Evil is a very real concept
    Dancing in the diner to your upset
    Sharing drinks and laughing through their teeth
    Their only success is our defeat

    youtube.com/watch?v=d8gulOH3i4

  14. This mix just put Prince's "I Would Die 4 U" and Loverboy's "Lovin' Every Minute of It" back-to-back, and the opening lines actually parallel each other nicely:

    "I'm not a woman,
    I'm not a man,
    I am something that you'll never understand..."

    and:

    "I'm not a man,
    or machine,
    I'm just something in between..."

    Cute!

    (Also, I can't be the only one who can no longer hear "Lovin' Every Minute of It" without thinking of the CP2020 sourcebook, right?) #music Oh hey this fits in #LyricalMonday!

  15. CW: Music, Lyrical Monday

    🎵 Silence - Marshmello ft. Khalid

    I found peace in your violence
    Can′t tell me there's no point in trying
    I′m at one, and I've been quiet for too long, oh

    Rock cover by Our Last Night (yes, I'm a big fan): yewtu.be/yD1McOmvkEI

  16. I had a futile dream
    It rose from loving you
    But the debt has broken my back
    There's no need to retaliate
    As your train has left our track

    youtube.com/watch?v=yYzVCJRJhow

  17. CW: Lyrical Monday post, themes of war, death

    🎵 Phoebe Bridgers — Day After Tomorrow

    They fill us full of lies, everyone buys
    'Bout what it means to be a soldier
    I still don't know how I'm supposed to feel
    'Bout all the blood that's been spilled
    Will god on this throne
    Get me back home
    On the day after tomorrow

    You can't deny, the other side
    Don't want to die anymore then we do
    What I'm trying to say is don't they pray
    To the same god that we do?

  18. 🎵 Good Charlotte — We Believe

    Downtown another day for all the suits and ties
    Another war to fight, there's no regard for life
    How do they sleep at night?
    How can we make things right?
    Just wanna make this right

    We believe (we believe)
    We believe (we believe)
    We believe (we believe)
    In this love

    We are all the same
    Human in all our ways and all our pain

  19. We share the same polluted veins
    Blood and hurricanes
    Put a bullet to our brains
    Is this all we’re heading for
    Collapsing on the floor
    I was hoping for more

    youtube.com/watch?v=px4kYfd97-0

  20. I wanted to grow older
    I wanted to breathe in
    Let the world fall off my shoulders
    Gravity pull on my skin
    But everything is red now
    And they buried me in sin
    And I bet they think I'm dead now
    But I'm not ready to give in

    youtube.com/watch?v=WyvaNTtIIxs

  21. 🎵 Mitski — Nobody

    Guess I'm a coward
    I just want to feel alright

    youtube.com/watch?v=qooWnw5rEcI

    (A repeat from before I started Lyrical Monday, but a worthy repeat)

  22. As usual, a day late. But the point is to get there, yeah?

    🎵 Taylor Swift — Bejeweled

    Baby love, I think I've been a little too kind
    Didn't notice you walkin' all over my peace of mind
    In the shoes I gave you as a present
    Puttin' someone first only works when you're in their top five

  23. 🎵 Dead By Sunrise — End of the World

    You can ignore what you cannot see
    You can believe in a lie
    You can run away from anything
    Until you open your eyes

    youtu.be/Gq45ywkf-7A

  24. 🎶 Agnes Obel - Dorian

    As the devil spoke we spilled out on the floor
    And the pieces broke and the people wanted more
    And the rugged wheel is turning another round

    Dorian, carry on
    Will you come along to the end
    Will you ever let us carry on

    youtube.com/watch?v=wZN1HKn3Qus

  25. 🎶 Daft Punk feat. Julian Casablancas - Instant Crush

    And we will never be alone again
    'Cause it doesn't happen every day
    Kinda counted on you being a friend
    Can I give it up or give it away?
    Now I thought about what I wanna say
    But I never really know where to go
    So I chained myself to a friend
    'Cause I know it unlocks like a door

    youtube.com/watch?v=a5uQMwRMHcs

  26. 🎵 Taylor Swift — You Are In Love

    You can hear it in the silence.
    You can feel it on the way home.
    You can see it with the lights out.
    You are in love.
    You are in love.

  27. 🎵 Taylor Swift — All You Had To Do Was Stay

    Hey, all you had to do was stay
    Had me in the palm of your hand
    Then why'd you have to go and lock me out when I let you in?

    Hey, now you say you want it back
    Now that it's just too late
    Well, could've been easy
    All you had to do was stay
