Night falls

Do you miss me, miss me, darling?
God knows I'm missing you
I can see two worlds colliding
That's what the sickness brought me to

- Mark Lanegan,  Nocturne

Losing control

Your mind
Is not your own

- Robert Palmer, Addicted To Love

I wait

a year goes by
she doesn't

- The Magnetic Fields, If You Don't Cry

Alone

I can't
She said
I'd save you
But I can't love

- Chelsea Wolfe, 16 Psyche

Home is in your arms

Just give me this one night
Just one night
to feel
Like I might be
on the right path
The path that takes me home
Wise enough to know myself...

- Everything, Everything No Reptiles

Fuck the pain away

People like you fuck people like me
In order to avoid agony
People like you fuck people like me
In order to avoid suffering

- Hole, Samantha

Heaven, how long?

Can't you see what you've done
to my heart
and soul
It's such a wasteland now

- Interpol, Slow Hands

On hope

So don't go dark on me
It's all alright
If I'm gonna get back to you someday
I'll need your light

- The National, Walk It Back

We're only here for a while, and it's all, all a joke

From far, from eve and morning
And yon twelve winded sky,
The stuff of life to knit me
Blew hither; here am I.

Now - for a breath I tarry
Nor yet disperse apart -
Take my hand quick and tell me,
What have you in your heart.

Speak now, and I will answer;
How shall I help you, say;
Ere to the wind's twelve quarters
I take my endless way.

- A.E. Housman, A Shropshire Lad

On anger

Don't do this,
I don't do this to you
Don't expect me to enjoy it

-The National, The Day I Die

On love, yet again

I loved a woman . Beautiful, beautiful woman, but so serious. This frowning face in the middle of a daisy. She had a way a walking, processional, like she was walking to her own funeral.

- Battlestar Galactica, series 3 episode 18

Everyday heartbreak

You're like no one I know,
You're the light from another world.

You swallow me whole,
With just a mumbled hello

And it breaks my heart to love you

It breaks my heart to love you.

- Editors, Sugar

I'm in a state

And all the wine is all for me
All the wine is all for me

- The National, All The Wine

In the jaws of the black eyed dog

Your body never made it past the
snow
K
line
fangs
about my throat

- Everything, Everything, Distant Past

My memories of you

This is my time with you

I'm not giving it back

- Garbage, We Never Tell

They say eventually I'll forget, but...

And I say
oh no sir
I must say you're wrong
I must disagree
oh no sir
I must say you're wrong

- Q Lazzarus, Goodbye Horses

These methods of escape cannot drive you from my heart, no matter how hard I try

I’ve gotta let go
I’ve gotta get straight
Why’d you have to make it so hard?
Let me get away

- Nine Inch Nails, Various Methods Of Escape

A motto for life

Thoughts black,  hands apt,  drugs fit

On the end of my first therapeutic relationship

You came on your own
that's how you'll leave
with hope in your hand
and air to breath

- Editors, An End Has A Start

I miss you so much

You have been gone for so long

I felt the lapping of an ebbing tide

- British Sea Power, Carrion
