carey sent this to me awhile ago. I'm working on filling it out, but here is hers:
Opening credits: Regina Spektor – Music Box
Life inside the music box ain't easy
The mallets hit
The gears are always turning
And everyone inside the mechanism
Is yearning to get out
And sing another melody completely
So different from the one they're always singing
I close my eyes and think that I have found me
But then I feel mortality surround me
I want to sing another melody
So different from the one I always sing
Waking up: Eisley – One Day I Slowly Floated Away
Wake up in the morning
I shall wake up and so shall you
wake up, the sun is beautiful
and it is warming you and I
fragile as we lie
Average day: Rusted Root – Send Me on My Way
I would like to reach out my hand
I may see you, I may tell you to run
Well pick me up with a golden hand
I may see you, I may tell you to run
I would like to hold my little hand
How we will run, we will...
How we will crawl, we will...
First date: Jens Lekman – Pocketful of Money
oh take me some place decent
where we meet up with your friends
where the people are pleasant
where the music never ends
Falling in love: David Grey – This Year's Love
So whose to worry
If our hearts get torn
When that hurt gets thrown
Don't you know this life goes on
And won't you kiss me
On that midnight street
Sweep me off my feet
Singing ain't this life so sweet
Love scene: Cat Power – I've Found a Reason
Oh I do believe
In all the things you say
What comes is better that what came before
And you'd better run run, run run to me
Better run, run run, run run to me
Better come, come come, come come to me
You'd better run
Fight scene: Arctic Monkeys – Fake Tales of San Francisco
I don't want to hear your
Fake Tales of San Francisco
Echo through the air
And there's a few bored faces at the back
All wishing they weren't there
And as the microphone squeaks
A young girl's telephone beeps
Yeah she's dashing for the exit
Oh she's running to the streets outside
"Oh you've saved me," she screams down the line"
The band were fucking wank
And I'm not having a nice time"
Breaking up: Carissa's Weird – All Apologies and Smiles, Yours Truly, Ugly Valentine
So drop it,
I turn around fast,
Shake your hand take,
Six steps back.
Getting back together: Damien Rice – Lonelily
I gave me away
I could have knocked off the evening
But I lonelily landed my waltz in her hands
In a way I felt you were leaving me
I was sure I wouldn't find you at home
And you let me down
You could have knocked off the evening
But you lonelily let him push under your bone
You let me down
It's no use deceiving
Neither of us wanna be alone…
And now you're coming home, you're coming home…
Secret love: Damien Rice – 9 Crimes
Leave me out with the waste
This is not what i do
It's the wrong kind of place
To be cheating on you
It's the wrong time
but she's pulling me through
It's a small crime
And I've got no exuse
Life's okay: The New Amsterdams – Turn Out the Light
Somehow my time got outta my hands.
I just wanna stop, master commands.
Telling the truth won't be this way again.
A long ways away, but you're never alone.
I look at the sky, over our home.
I'll be around; a few more miles to go.
Mental breakdown: Ben Harper – Alone
Today and tomorrow have become one
Every single thing has become undone
Human nature is a beast
What I've done the most, to show i have the least
Please don't leave me here
Please don't leave me here
Don't you leave me alone, alone
Driving: Peter Gabriel – Solsbury Hill
Climbing up on Solsbury Hill
I could see the city light
Wind was blowing, time stood still
Eagle flew out of the night
He was something to observe
Came in close I heard a voiceS
tanding stretching every nerve
I had to listen had no choice
Learning a lesson: The Format – On Your Porch
well my dad was sick and my mom she cared for him her love it nursed him back to life and me i ran, i couldnt even look at him for fear id have to say goodbye and as i start to leave he grabs me by the shoulder and he tells me whats left to lose, youve done enough and if you fail well then you fail but not to us cause these last three years, i know theyve been hard but now its time to get out of the desert and into the sun even if its alone
Deep thought: Ryan Adams – Dear Chicago
I think about you all the time,
It's strange and hard to deal
I think about you lying there,
and those blanket's lie so still.
Nothing breathes here in the cold,
Nothing moves or even smiles,
I've been thinking some of suicide,
but there's bars out here for miles.
Sorry about the every kiss;
Every kiss you wasted bad.
I think the thing you said was true
I'm gonna die alone and sad.
Flashback: The Get Up Kids – Campfire Kansas
woke up at eight,
started the firehad a few drinks,
we all felt inspired
jumped in the stream,
our shoes and canteens
the water was bitter cold
laid in the raft till it started moving
the current just sang, the song was so soothing
we stopped along the way
on a beach, in the sun, on a beautiful day
our boats collide, we feel the breeze
we stay afloat and make the most of everything
Partying: Clap Your Hands Say Yeah – In This Home on Ice
Blue you radiant blue
I dont know how you can stand next to me
You you talk like a noose
And only confuse my perplexity
Now that i'm so sad and not quite right
I could dance all night I could dance all night
Happy dance: The Cure – Close to Me
Regretting: Snow Patrol – Set the Fire to the Third Bar
Their words mostly noises
Ghosts with just voices
Your words in my memory
Are like music to me
I'm miles from where you are,
I lay down on the cold ground
I pray that something picks me up
And sets me down in your warm arms
Long night alone: Simon and Garfunkel – America
Kathy, I'm lost, I said, though I knew she was sleeping.
I'm empty and aching and I don't know why….
Death scene: K's Choice – Live for Real
I will breathe the air I'll dance.
And you will wonder why
It's because you made me see this
Chance was moving by
Cause I'm not going to live forever
But as long as I do, I'd love to live
For real.
Closing credits: The Faces – Ooh La La
