Little Lungs by An Horse.
And I thought you had ruined it all
and I thought you were going to hell
And I thought I had ruined it all
And I thought I was living in hell

But I get it now, yeah I get it now

And they said that I had to be strong
And they said I should stick to the plan
And they said that it wouldn’t take long And they said just remember the plan

But I get it now, yeah I get it now
But sometimes it gets a little cold inside
And I know you tried, yes I know you tried

But they told me, they told me.
Things aren’t always as they seem, seem
And they told me, they told me.
I should just concentrate and breathe, breathe, breathe.

And I thought I was doing okay
well I thought you were doing so well
And I know I am doing okay
but I know it was not too well

But you won’t look into,
no you won’t look into.
But sometimes, it gets a little cold inside
And I know you tried, yes I know you tried

Well they told me, they told me.
Things aren’t always as they seem, seem
They told me, they told me. I should just concentrate and breathe, breathe,

Your little lungs sighed, breathe your little lungs you breathe your little lungs sighed.
Breathe your little you breathe, your little lungs sighed.

Kate:
And I know you were doing okay.
I know you were doing so well and
[You changed this all, you changed this all.] x2

And I didn’t reply to your letter cause,
no I didn’t reply to your letter cause
[I’m not an idiot.] x2

Damon:
And they said that I had to be strong
And they said I should stick to the plan
And they said that it wouldn’t take long
And they said just remember the plan
Breathe, your little lungs breathe x2

Days and Days by Tegan and Sara
It must be something in the way you move,
It must be something in the way you look,
I'm not sure just yet.

Must be something in the way you dream.
You just go home and the thirteen days,
In between you and I.

This is me before I come undone.
This is me before I fall apart.
I've been tired for days and days.
I've been tired for days and days.

It must be something in the way you move;
Innocent like you gave in just,
Like you always would.

It must be something in the way they say.
And the magic that you bring in between all you imply.

This is me before I come undone.
This is me before I fall apart.
I've been tired for days and days.
I've been tired for days and days.

It could have been a month or,
It could have been a year,
But I, I gave up long before,
Long before you cared.
Her art inspired me to,
To do my best and,
To paint my music like,
Like I saw it best.
And she says I grew up well.
Well, well I grew up strong,
Cause no one's got my back.
No one's gonna write me my songs.

It could have been a month or,
It could have been a year,
But I, I gave up long before,
Cause I've been tired for days and days.
I've been tired for days and days and days.

^YES! I love those lyrics. My favorite song off that Rearrange Beds album. One correction though...the line is "I didn't reply to your letter 'cause (I'm not here yet)"

And Days and Days is one of my top 3 favorite songs ever. You new person have exceptionally amazing taste.

Makes me want to post some of my favorite Tegan and Sara lyrics:

Clever Meals

They aren't desperate for love and affection
They're desperate for you
And as they sit out there all sly and sure
does anyone feel as they do

I'm quite sure we'll find one another
In a place better than this
A time filled with us
And we'll send up our shooting stars and comets
And we'll make our little gestures
we'll make our little comments

This song is my anthem and it makes up my ideals
And who I am has benefited from my
cleverly planned meals
I'm stripped and vital and I see rules that almost fit
And if I voice my opinion will you stay and sit
And as I stand here screaming in despair
I say yes this is my life and yes you should care
This song is my anthem and it makes up my ideals
And who I am has benefitted from my
cleverly planned meals

Hardly happy at all and I'm ready to take the fall
We pay for the stupid things we've done where I come from
Can you sit through this or is it too deep
Will you ever use common sense it comes pretty cheap
And if I speak more clearly if I make more sense
Will you shut your mouth you won't come across so dense
close your eyes and then you free your mind
You're free to fly

Nine Black Poppies

A recent favorite:

I've left a trail of myself every place that I've been through
And going bald is the most manly thing I'm ever gonna do
I'll tell the Earth "Thanks for the hair, thanks for the skin, thanks for the bone.
Though I now slowly give it back, I still appreciate the loan."
Just tell me that you like me in the same sentence as a mountainside
'Cause it would be such a relief to be objectified

'Cause, who says it's so important to sort through these thoughts of ours
Maybe that's why we love to try to see ourselves from the outside
In photographs and videos and diaries and mirrors
'Cause it would be such a relief to be objectified

And the closest that I ever got still seems to leave a lot to go
But the horizon seems to be a place that nobody can know
Looking forth and looking back, our vision can't extend
Beyond the quaint vanishing points our bodies recommend
And I'll help you move some furniture somewhere it's never been before
But the room's so small the dresser drawer won't let us get back out the door
Just tell me that you like me in the same sentence as a building
It would be such a relief to see I'm just a natural thing

We're only boats and the boats are only empty
And you can't blame an empty boat that's on a river to the sea
You can't blame a billion boats without a sail, without a sailor
And that's how we look in photographs and diaries and mirrors
And the ants turn into plants and the plants turn into ants
And children are clumsy people and old people are rotting children
And I still don't have a cell phone but this seashell gets reception
And the ocean won't stop calling and I want a restraining order
Just tell me that you like me in the same sentence as a building
It would be such a relief to see I'm just a natural thing
We're just a natural thing
Just like anything

Raust

Pink Floyd - Time

Ticking away the moments that make up a dull day
You fritter and waste the hours in an offhand way
Kicking around on a piece of ground in your home town
Waiting for someone or something to show you the way

Tired of lying in the sunshine
Staying home to watch the rain
And you are young and life is long
And there is time to kill today
And then one day you find
Ten years have got behind you
No one told you when to run
You missed the starting gun

And you run, and you run to catch up with the sun, but it's sinking
Racing around to come up behind you again
The sun is the same in a relative way, but you're older
Shorter of breath and one day closer to death

Every year is getting shorter
Never seem to find the time
Plans that either come to nought
Or half a page of scribbled lines
Hanging on in quiet desparation is the English way
The time is gone
The song is over
Thought I'd something more to say

Home, home again
I like to be here when I can
When I come home cold and tired
It's good to warm my bones beside the fire
Far away across the field
The tolling of the iron bell
Calls the faithful to their knees
To hear the softly spoken magic spells
