"What Sarah Said"
by Death Cab For Cutie

And it came to me then that every plan is a tiny prayer to father time
As I stared at my shoes in the ICU that reeked of piss and 409
And I rationed my breaths as I said to myself that I'd already taken too much today
As each descending peak on the LCD took you a little farther away from me
Away from me

Amongst the vending machines and year-old magazines in a place where we only say goodbye
It stung like a violent wind that our memories depend on a faulty camera in our minds
But I knew that you were a truth I would rather lose than to have never lain beside at all
And I looked around at all the eyes on the ground as the TV entertained itself

'Cause there's no comfort in the waiting room
Just nervous pacers bracing for bad news
And then the nurse comes round and everyone will lift their heads
But I'm thinking of what Sarah said that "Love is watching someone die"

So who's going to watch you die?..

S.M.C. by Project 86 from the album Truthless Heroes

Big business ain’t easy
I’m sure you’d agree
Especially when the product is eternity-
To stay one step ahead we must achieve
And turn this holy temple
Into a factory
Is there anywhere you can run
To hide from these thieves? -
Cause eternity’s on sale today for a fee

Faith is buying me away
Buying me a way
To convert the masses into little servants
Faith is buying me away
Buying me a way
Buying me into your home (soul)

Our sanctuary of this high-rise
Our steeples our billboards
Our slogans our converts
Oh don’t forget to buy this T-shirt
As you leave
And open up the offering box
And give until it hurts
Show me an open heart and we’ll steal it away
Cause eternity’s on up for sale for a small fee today
You Know

This altar is a stage
Our sponsor must be paid
And maybe even make the front page

"All U Can Eat"
By Ben Folds


Son, look at all the people in this restaurant
What do you think they weigh?
And out the window to the parking lot
At their SUV's taking all the space

They give no fuck
They talk as loud as they want
They give no fuck
Just as long as there's enough for them

Gonna get on the microphone down at Wal-Mart
Talk about some shit that's been on my mind
Talk of the state of this great nation of ours
People look to your left
Yeah, look to your right

They give no fuck
They buy as much as they want
They give no fuck
Just as long as there's enough for them

Son, look at the people lining up for plastic
Wouldn't you like to see them in the National Geographic?
Squatting bare assed in the dirt eating rice from a bowl
With a towel on their head, and maybe a bone in their nose

See that asshole with the peace sign on his license plate?
Giving me the finger and running me out of his lane
God made us number one because he loves us the best
Well he should go bless someone else for a while
Give us a rest

(They give no)
Yeah, and everyone can see
(They give no)
We've eaten all that we can eat

"Feathers" by Coheed and Cambria
History’s made its mark in anger
As everybody knows it's what we do
It's nothing new

The next chords struck are fault and failure
And we both know that finger points on cue
There’s blame for two

Do you really want him coming Newo?
Do you really think he’s coming back to you?
Oh, Once the world stops spinning, read that writing on the wall.

Is there another. Newo?
Is there cushion just enough to break my fall
Oh, don’t you cry
Just lie there baby in the past, Cause if you want it all right now

Hide your feathers, on the back porch, baby
He’s coming home for... you've... been... such... a liar
Hide your feathers,Little back porch lady
You're too old... enough to cry those sorry eyes out over the world

Hear me scream outside your window
I'm only here to make my peace with you...
There's something new

Oh, it was our time, that day in our lives
If I could do things different, what would I choose?
Oh, don't you cry, Mama.
Please, don't cry Mama.
Oh, don't you cry, no, no.

Right now! hide your feathers on the back porch, baby.
He’s coming home for... you've... been... such... a liar.
Hide your feathers, little back porch lady
You're too old... enough to cry those sorry eyes out over the world

No other would wait for a lover to embrace, boy
when there's no more room for love,
You'll sell her off to the sharks

No other, would wait for a lover.
To embrace, boy, when there's no more room for love,
You'll sell her off to the sharks

Right now! hide your feathers on the back porch, baby.
He’s coming home for you've... been... such... a liar.
Right now! hide your feathers on the back porch, baby.
He’s coming home for you've... been... such... a liar.
Hide your feathers, little back porch lady
To open up to cry your sorry eyes out

Wait a minute, little back porch lady
Wait a minute, little back porch lady (I'm in love)
Wait a minute, little back porch lady
Oh don't you cry, Mama
Oh, don't you cry, no, no
Wait a minute, little back porch lady
Wait a minute, little back porch lady (I'm in love)
Wait a minute, little back porch lady
Oh don't you cry, Mama
Oh don't you cry, no, no

"The Wrestler" by Bruce Springsteen
Have you ever seen a one trick pony in the field so happy and free?
If you've ever seen a one trick pony then you've seen me
Have you ever seen a one-legged dog making its way down the street?
If you've ever seen a one-legged dog then you've seen me

Then you've seen me, I come and stand at every door
Then you've seen me, I always leave with less than I had before
Then you've seen me, bet I can make you smile when the blood, it hits the floor
Tell me, friend, can you ask for anything more?
Tell me can you ask for anything more?

Have you ever seen a scarecrow filled with nothing but dust and wheat?
If you've ever seen that scarecrow then you've seen me
Have you ever seen a one-armed man punching at nothing but the breeze?
If you've ever seen a one-armed man then you've seen me

Then you've seen me, I come and stand at every door
Then you've seen me, I always leave with less than I had before
Then you've seen me, bet I can make you smile when the blood, it hits the floor
Tell me, friend, can you ask for anything more?
Tell me can you ask for anything more?

These things that have comforted me, I drive away
This place that is my home I cannot stay
My only faith's in the broken bones and bruises I display

Have you ever seen a one-legged man trying to dance his way free?
If you've ever seen a one-legged man then you've seen me

"Funeral" by Band of Horses

I'm coming up only to hold you under
I'm coming up only to show you wrong
And to know you is hard and we wonder
To know you all wrong we were
Ooo Ooo

Really too late to call so we wait for
Morning to wake you is all we got
To know me as hardly golden
To know me all wrong they were

And every occasion I will be ready for the funeral
And every occasion once more is called the funeral
Every occasion I am ready for the funeral
And every occasion one brilliant day funeral

I am coming up only to show you down for it
I am coming up only to show you wrong
To the outside
The dead leaves, they are alive
For they don't have trees to hang their hearts
Ooo Ooo

And every occasion I will be ready for the funeral
And every occasion once more is called the funeral
And every occasion I am ready for the funeral
And every occasion one brilliant day funeral

Yesss, thank you for making this thread less sad in the process of adding a sad song.
