we’re half awake in a fake empire

#awaymessage #thenational

who's that casting devious stares in my direction?
mama this surely is a dream

#awaymessage #marcyplayground

when your heart was open wide and you loved things just because

#awaymessage #rilokiley

i'll take all the living you can give me
yeah, we've got a good thing goin'

#awaymessage #ladylamb

my name is blue canary, one note spelled l-i-t-e

#awaymessage #theymightbegiants

kiss me just this one last time
tell me that you once were mine
kiss me just this one last time
show me that your love was mine

#awaymessage #deathcabforcutie

and i cut off my t-shirt sleeves and claim a new continent

#awaymessage #bleachers

let them know you realize that life goes fast
it's hard to make the good things last
you realize the sun doesn't go down
it's just an illusion caused by the world spinning round

#awaymessage #theflaminglips

it wasn't me
i didn't dig this ditch
i was walking for weeks before i fell in

#awaymessage #frightenedrabbit

yeah you're the shit but you won't be here for long
oh, there's always someone cooler than you

#awaymessage #benfolds

shadows settle on the place that you left
our minds are troubled by the emptiness
destroy the middle - it's a waste of time
from the perfect start
to the finish line

#awaymessage #daughter

i can't tell if i'm drowning or floating
so i just keep on going, going

#awaymessage #sirbabygirl

and you tell these stories with happy endings
only when interrupted before they're over

#awaymessage #deathcabforcutie

when desperate static beats the silence up
a quiet truth to calm you down
the songs you wrote - it got me through a lot
just wanna tell you that
but it's too late
it's too late

#awaymessage #benfolds

you and i both know that the house is haunted
yeah you and i both know that the ghost is you
you used to walk around screaming, all slamming all 'em doors
well i'm all grown up now and i don't scare easy no more

#awaymessage #shakeygraves

no his name was mike

#awaymessage

but this world takes more strength than it gave me
the trees deny themselves nothing that makes them grow

#awaymessage #hozier

with fingernails that shine like justice
and a voice that is dark like tinted glass

#awaymessage #cake

i wanna publish scenes
and rage against machines
i wanna pierce my tongue
it doesn't hurt it feels fine

#awaymessage #harveydanger

we'll fast forward to a few years later
& no one knows except the both of us
&I have honored your request for silence
& you've washed your hands clean of this

#awaymessage #alanismorrissette

we've got these chains hanging around our necks
people wanna strangle us with them before we take our first breath
afraid of change, afraid of staying the same
when temptation calls, we just look away

#awaymessage #barenakedladies

help, i'm alive
my heart keeps beating like a hammer
hard to be soft, tough to be tender

#awaymessage #metric

can you hear the road from this place?
can you hear footsteps, voices?
i have fallen in the forest
did you hear me?

#awaymessage #frightenedrabbit

this one goes out to all the dreamers at sea
this life is only what you want it to be
and i want more, i want more

#awaymessage #kflay

and then canceled my plans just in case you'd call
back when I was living for the hope of it all, for the hope of it all

#awaymessage #taylorswift

mama told me that the lowest low's a good place to start
take out the trash, pay my credit card
wash my hair and forgive myself for living

#awaymessage #kflay

your clothes never wear as well the next day
and your hair never falls in quite the same way

#awaymessage #everythingeverywhereallatonce #eeaao #ninedays

OK. Well, don't turn it into a word, Tom. I'm a guy.

#awaymessage #succession

straight up, what did you hope to learn about here?
if i was someone else, would this all fall apart?
strange, where were you when we started this gig?
i wish the real world would just stop hasslin me

#awaymessage #matchbox20

so come on, motherfucker, you survive
you gotta give yourself a break

#awaymessage #bleachers

it was cool
nothing fire
nothing broke
keep simple
nothing tired
nothing old
same as you
same as you

#awaymessage #yellowjackets

how do I know when it's time to let go?
take my heart
i can't grow up

#awaymessage #teganandsara

so kiss me in the back room where the music plays
i know that it's not over
but oh the songs people will sing for home
and for the ones that have ben gone for to long
oh the things people will do for the ones they love

#awaymessage #theheadandtheheart

and she looks at the man and she says
where are we going?
and he looks at her and he says
we're going to a party
it's a birthday party
it's your birthday party
happy birthday darling
we love you very very very very very very very much

#awaymessage #brighteyes

we order different drinks at the same bars
i know about what you did and i wanna scream the truth
she thinks you love the beach, you're such a damn liar

#awaymessage #lorde

this is the closest we've ever been
and I have no idea what’s happenin'
is this how this whole thing is gonna end?
this is the closest we've ever been
