You

You're a weapon of devotion

You're a lover of attention

- James, P.S.

They don't burn like we do... (are you listening to this too, my love?)

even though our love is doomed
even though we're all messed up
even though our love is cruel
even though our stars are crossed

you're the only thing worth fighting for

- Garbage, Even Though Our Love Is Doomed

Every day

I drown myself in sorrow
Until I wake up tomorrow

- Tricky, Ponderosa

On being cut off

I know you're out there
I know you're gone
You can't say that's fair
Can't you be wrong?

- Dinosaur Jr., Out There

On living in the borderlands with you

I disappeared in you
You disappeared from me
I gave you everything you ever wanted
It wasn't what you wanted

The men who love you, you hate the most
They pass right through you like a ghost
They look for you, but your spirit is in the air
Baby, you're nowhere

- U2, So Cruel

One does one's best

Let's not focus on her. That'll be like entering a bad k-hole you'll never wake up from.

- Mr Robot, Episode 2

On waiting, again

He thought of her glance, which had lain in his heart like a glittering treasure. But she did not come. And the more he tried to make her come, the fainter became his memory of that glitter in his heart, until the end all was darkness within him.

- Michael Ende, The Neverending Story

Deal with it

Every morning I jump out of bed and step on a landmine. The landmine is me. After the explosion, I spend the rest of the day putting the pieces together.

- Ray Bradbury, Zen In The Art Of Writing

I'm not an addict

It's not a habit, it's cool
I feel alive
The deeper you stick it in your vein
The deeper the thoughts there's no more pain

- K's Choice, "I'm Not An Addict"

Why

Why do I have to follow you
To know just who I am?

- The Lemon Twigs, These Words

I miss you so much

Gonna take a lot to drag me away from you

- Toto, Africa

What can I do?

without you
what would I do?

- David Bowie, Without You

That's just the way it goes

don't rake up my mistakes
I know exactly what they are

- Morrissey, Why don't you find out for yourself

On waiting

So much that I wanna do, when I dream I'm alone with you
It's magic
You want me to leave it there, afraid of a love affair
But I think you know
That I can't let go

If you change your mind, I'm the first in line
Honey I'm still free
Take a chance on me

- Abba, Take a chance on me

Alone

I was there when you needed me most
I was there when you wanted me least
I was your father
your son
your holy ghost and priest

I saw you at your best
I knew you at your worst
I couldn't tell if you were blessed or cursed

I couldn't save your soul
I couldn't even take you home
I couldn't fill that hole
Alone

- Depeche Mode, Alone

This isn't real

I've said goodbye so many times
It's as easy as breathing
And I've lost count of all the nights
I've listened to you leaving.

- The Bluetones, Driftwood

Missing

Your bedroom eyes

and your baby pout

- Garbage, Hammering In My Head

Has it really come to this?

I gotta let you go
I gotta let you go
no more sleepless nights

- Dominica, Let You Go

Used to be me. Now it's you.

anything that may desert you
so it cannot hurt you
you only have to look behind you
at who's underlined you

- Ladytron, Destroy Everything You Touch

One day it won't be

And she said
the pain of being together
is more than being apart

- Brakes, No Return
