Tegan and Sara, How Come You Don’t Want Me
"How come you don’t want me now? Why don’t you want to wait this out? How come you always lead me on, never take my call, hear me out? Why don’t you wanna win me now? Tell me why you couldn’t try and keep me here."
I’m so mad that I never got to say goodbye
And I all can do is sit here and wonder why
You were taken from my life
And as I count down seconds till I see you again
I’ve got our memories in my head
And I just can’t seem to understand
Promise of Redemption - How Fast
"And I’ve heard you said one time that I never even fucking cross your mind. And I guess I’ll act like that’s fine, but you should know you cross mine all the time."
Citizen, Tracking Time
"Instead of taking life for granted I feel lucky to be alive, good how I’ll feel inside. And from now on we’re taking big strides."
Rebelution
Please don’t say we’re done when I’m not finished.
I could give so much more, make you feel like never before.
Welcome, they said, welcome to the floor.
It’s been awhile and you’ve found better.
But I’ve been waiting too long to give this up.
The more I see, I understand.
But sometimes, I still need you.
— The xx
"Have you seen my hands? Just look at ‘em shake. And the song just keeps on repeating, drop the needle again. And I dance with your ghost, oh, but that ain’t the way… I can’t move on and I can’t stay the same."
The Gaslight Anthem, “45”
