Track Name: The Appleseed Cast - Marigold & Patchwork (#3)
fall down. marigold. fall sounds of rain. why can't i go. those days when spokes wound baseball cards tear hear them roar. and faster still those boards which let fly souls. honeysuckle walk right afternoon time dies. wish for sometime soon. i'll work it out. my way. so many faces. so lost. why can't i go back when this mess was not made. forever turns out just the same as two months. that rages on then after
Track Name: Planes Mistaken For Stars - Copper And Stars (#11)
and i don't want to say that i wasted my days chasing instead of catching keeping. wasting wishes on copper and stars. i'm wanting you to save me and i'm not only asking. because i can face this falling it's just the taking that i fell. i'm breaking down
Track Name: Cross My Heart - It Doesn't Take That Many Pills To Sleep Forever (#14)
today i packed all my things. how many things do i need. tomorrow i'm moving from paine street. i guess this is goodbye. and i'm moving on my own two feet. just to get my direction. and the movement of my own two eyes. catch a reflection of me alone. is this why i'm terrified. waiting there you are watching. watching me drowning. depression has settled in again. how many days will this go on. time takes time. how many days will i take. now you are drowning. goodbye
Track Name: Pop Unknown - Half Of Ninety (#22)
in forty-five. i'll come back for the pieces. you won't have to compromise. you won't have to pay the price. and with that in mind. i'd throw it all away. forever is a long time. you know it won't come easily. and with a forty-five. i'll come back here on my own. to find you waiting here for me. so nice. you've been waiting there for me. so nice. and with that in mind. i'll take you far away. somewhere for a long time. never looking back again. get up and go there. cause i'll be right there for you. i miss you beautiful. and i can taste your kiss. something tells me. i may never see you here again
Track Name: The Appleseed Cast - Forever Longing The Golden Sunsets (#24)
this county road. i've fallen away. this country road. to a place unknown. i traveled away. i fall into nothing. the sea side road. has fallen away. i have to go. my place is sold. i've fallen away. i fall into nothing. the sky has turned again. you can't fight. and you won't die. memory. it's tearing you apart. you won't run. and you can't die. memory. the sunset gold. i've fallen away. traded away. a sea side day. i've fallen away. i fall into nothing. i promise you with warm salt air. hallowed breezes through your hair. days on end and days long gone. the beach and the fires and the nights are gone. flow. tide. ebb. road. night. sky. sand. home. the fair in the park. by the sea in my heart. is never gone
Track Name: Benton Falls - All These Things (#53)
i promise that i won't fall down. i promise that i won't skin my knee. like you promised you'd always be around. to take good care of me. and i remember. you standing behind that white picket fence with a white peaked face. trying hard to embrace my youth. before it escapes. before it's too late. clutching the fence she said. how have i hurt you. what have i done. did i desert you. or spite with my tongue. was i too eager. or love you too much. i love you too much. and now that i'm all grown. i'm feeling so alone. why have you brought me here. you say all these things i say. but it's not the same. i'm feeling so alone today. alone and numb. i'll ice my thoughts. i'll ice my mind for now. it's not your fault. you did what you could do. for this i will love you for always. you hold my heart and my tiny hand. thank you for all these things
Track Name: Imbroco - You're My Lionkiller (#57)
closer. hard to breathe in. the wake up. i woke up to. these tragic events. years spent in the shade. in your shadow. i know i can't be replaced. small times by build giant memory. i haven't gone far from center in so long. i built this place for you to live forever in. millionaires club penny pinched the pick pocket. time spent like we could live through our sons without having one. we could come to dinner. we could feel warm and safe. or we could live in this hotel. so vacant. time takes it's toll. we cant keep it all
Track Name: Hundred Hands - A Replay (#71)
scars on my back. they prove a point. it points to you and this life and this world is a tidal wave. damn this drama day. these games we play and this loss. and this hurt. it was for you. every now and then it gets easier. i was there when you wrote it down. last place finisher. sad letter writer. stayed up all night composing lines for my movie life. typed you up. a sea. an ocean blue with tidal waves. a whirlpool it was for you
Track Name: The Appleseed Cast - Steps And Numbers (#74)
are you wishing on a star. did you know your dreams are sold. to people who dream only of gold. they'll find a way to pull stars down. stand there. dance with a memory. the caption reads it's all over now. do you feel alone in the secret. are you standing there just weeping. do you feel the light is gone. is it hard to remain strong. in the face of all you know. in a world that's brought you low
Track Name: Starmarket - Losing Track (#83)
that fixed idea will drive you insane. keeps you from life. keeps you from thinking straight. afraid to live. afraid to try. get out on the streets. step into the burning flames. the emptiness inside. won't stay forever in your heart. it never leaves it never lives. if you only try to hide. won't chase you down here anymore. you will have to chase me now. i'm losing track. and i'm losing grip. can you be my shelter. i need a shelter. been here too long. lost track of time. nothing to do. too much to ponder on. still i reject the thought of you. it hurts to know. it hurts to understand. another endless day. comes to an end. we say hooray. so hard to breathe. so hard to try. so hard to see the days go by. i got sucked and choked. on the thin small town air. somewhere there must be room enough to grow. but i'm not sure
Track Name: Brandtson - Still Life (#85)
woke up slow this morning to quiet walls and a sunlight flood. this place it seems so empty and everything except for this wait has left me. try not to dwell on this time. how long can it last? hold your breath and close your eyes. the pain will pass. try to rise above the distance of all that you want and soon you'll know the why. why and for what. for the sake of a love like no other. for something we've never known. for the hope of another chance at happiness. we forsake. i've watched the colors fade where windows cast their shape. the same way i have changed in the light of these dark days. i believe in happiness and in love that never fails but the longer i wait here the more they just seem like a fairy tale. i need you to save me. you seem beyond a stones throw. helpless hands tied. i try but this garden's overgrown on the inside. try to rise above the distance of all that i want and remember the why. why and for what
Track Name: Race Car Riot - Raincheck (#88)
when i looked around. i did not see your face in town. and well i know by now. you didn't want me anyhow. well i know by now. you're so cold. these things i cannot change. you're so bold
