Well I'm feeling shitty so i thought I'd bring u all with me. So recommend some songs to do with losing someone u love etc. I think I'll begin with

Offspring - Gone Away

Maybe in another life
I could find you there
Pulled away before your time
I can't deal it's so unfair

And it feels
Yeah it feels like
heaven's so far away
And it feels
Yeah it feels like
the world has grown cold
Now that you've gone away

Leaving flowers on your grave
Show that I still care
(But) black roses and hail marys
Can't bring back what's taken from me

I reach to the sky
And call out your name
and if I could trade
I would

And it feels
And it feels like
Heaven's so far away
And it stings
Yeah it stings now
(The) world is so cold
Now that you've gone away
Gone away, gone away, yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

Ouuhhh, ouhhh, ouhh yeah

I SAW YOUR SOUL! Wooah!
YEAH YEAH YEAH YEAH YEAH YEAH YEAH Ouhh...

I reach to the sky
And call out your name
oh please let me trade
I would

And it feels
And it feels like
Heaven's so far away
And it feels
Yeah it feels like
(The) world has grown cold
Now that you've gone away
Gone away, gone away, yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

Ouuhhh, ouhhh, ouhh ohh oh yeah

Strung Out - Razorblade
I've got a feeling you were alone and on the run
With a suitcase filled with razorblades and turpentine sad eyes
Of a starlet glazed in promises made too divine to be real
A runaway too shiftless to know what is wrong don't make it right
And sometimes I wonder if I knew you could I change you
Or would you be the same to me right now

Your reason to live became a reason to die
And now you're gone
I think about you in black and white faded news print still life memory
Of a broken body in a cheap perfume disguise
Well I just wanna know you found some peace before you left this place

Well it's alright to be afraid of what your eyes can't hide
With both hands tied
Did you sink yourself did you cheat yourself
How did you stray so far and end up here?
To know yourself is to destroy yourself
And what you are you could not hide
Truth is all I have to understand

Bound and bled instant fame in red
Now you're in the spotlight again
A different tale with a darker twist
But for sure you knew that you would always be the star
No lost innocence because there never was
Just you and the world, just you and the world
No fairy tale could ever end like this
It's just another bad luck tale
All used up and on the run from you

Descendents - Jean Is Dead
Wake up early, mad at you
Got to school but where are you?
You should have told me
I should have known
But now you're gone
And I'm alone
Your mother told me
Last night on the phone
Now you're gone
Now I'm alone
I would have helped you
I would have done anything
I would have taken you with me
Or bought you a ring, but
Now you're gone and, I'm alone!

I don't mean to alarm you but you have dogs on your face

The Smiths - THAT JOKE ISN'T FUNNY ANYMORE

Park the car at the side of the road
You should know
Time's tide will smother you
And I will too
When you laugh about people who feel so
Very lonely
Their only desire is to die
Well, I'm afraid
It doesn't make me smile
I wish I could laugh

But that joke isn't funny anymore
It's too close to home
And it's too near the bone
It's too close to home
And it's too near the bone
More than you'll ever know ...

Kick them when they fall down
Kick them when they fall down
You kick them when they fall down
Kick them when they fall down
You kick them when they fall down
Kick them when they fall down
You kick them when they fall down
Kick them when they fall down

It was dark as I drove the point home
And on cold leather seats
Well, it suddenly struck me
I just might die with a smile on my
Face after all

I've seen this happen in other people's
Lives
And now it's happening in mine

I've seen this happen in other people's
Lives
Oh ...
And now it's happening in mine
Happening in mine
Happening in mine
Happening in mine
Happening in mine

I've seen this happen in other people's
Lives
Oh ...
And now, now, now it's happening in mine
Happening in mine
Mine, mine
Happening in mine

Fountains of Wayne - Hung Up On You
The Bens - Bruised
Ben Folds Five - Song for the Dumped :)
 
Ok here it is, im in a bummed mood lately since ive decided to stop looking till I move in September.

1. I Am Trying To Break Your Heart - Wilco
2. We Might As Well Be Strangers - Keane
3. Letter to Elise - The Cure
4. Pink Bullets - The Shins
5. She Loves Me - Black Lab
6. Possession - Sarah McLachlan
7. Ordinary Life - Kristen Barry
8. Modern Romance - Yeah Yeah Yeahs
9. Don't Wanna Die Anymore - New Radicals
10. The Moth - Aimee Mann

12. Nora Jones - Shoot The Moon
13. Ready for a Fall - PJ Olsson

My favorites as far as fitting the theme and offering the most meaning in simple lyrics would probably be Modern Romance and Expo 86, The Moth is pretty awesome too. Possession doesnt totally fit the theme but its her best song ever. The end.

Last Kiss
( Pearl Jam )

Oh where, oh where can my baby be?
The Lord took her away from me
She's gone to Heaven so I got to be good
So I can see my baby when I leave this world

We were out on a date in my daddy's car
We hadn't driven very far
There in the road, straight ahead
A car was stalled, the engine was dead
I couldn't stop, so I swerved to the right
I'll never forget the sound that night
The screaming tires, the busting glass
The painful scream that I heard last

Oh where, oh where can my baby be?
The Lord took her away from me
She's gone to Heaven, so I got to be good
So I can see my baby when I leave this world

When I woke up the rain as pouring down
There were people standing all around
Somthing warm flowing through my eyes
But somehow I found my baby that night
I lifted her head, she looked at me and said
Hold me darling just a little while
I held her close, I kissed her our last kiss
I found the love that I knew I had missed
Well, now she's gone even though I hold her tight
I lost my love, my life, that night

Oh where, oh where can my baby be?
The Lord took her away from me
She's gone to Heaven so I got to be good
So I can see my baby when I leave this world

Woh woh woh woh woh
Ohhh oh ohhhh
Woh ohhh oh oh oh ohhhh
Ohhh oh oh oh oh
Woh ohhh oh oh oh ohhhh
Ohhh oh oh oh oh

If you want a lot of love songs, go buy the cd called Power Ballads. Got a lot of good songs on it actually...like Total Eclipse of the Heart ;)


Also, if you're in a shitty mood, Tool - Disposition is a beautiful, soothing song.

Belle And Sebastian - "Don't Leave The Light On Baby"
It's been a bloody stupid day
My baby called me up to say
Don't call me love, don't call me
It's not all she said

I truly love her but I know
I'm bad for her, I'm bad and so
At least she may forgive me for my honesty

My friend came back from being abroad
He was rich and I was overawed
His ship came in
I'm standing on the harbour wall

Another friend, the one I love
Turns to me "Have you seen enough?"
"Let's hang about
There's nothing like a sunset"

It's been a bloody stupid day
Don't leave the light on baby
My baby called me up to say
Don't leave the light on baby
I'll see you sometime maybe
Don't leave the light on baby
It finally dawned on me tonight
Best to go down without a fight
I know you will forgive me for my honesty

Cannibal Corpse - Frantic Disembowelment


puppy.jpg


Intestines exposed
By violent thrusts
The innards removes
Dissecting the guts
To rip through the skin
Tissue and muscle
Cartilage shreading
Draining blood vessels


puppy-1.jpg


Frenzied hacking
Morals lacking
Eviscerate
Life is gone before my eyes

Flesh matters the most
When splattered around
Its never morose
Absurdly profouned
Fresh insides come out
Excitedly done
My purpose in life
To kill just for fun

Frenzied hacking
Morals lacking
Eviscerate
Life is gone before my eyes

rabbit.jpg


Frantic disembowelment
Deprived of vital content
Organ loss without consent
Spastic slicing an event
Sharpend steel my covenant
Frantic disembowelment
Mutilating miscreant
Sickening accomplishment
Spreading gore is ime worth spent
Perpetuate this mad intent
Eternally malevolent
Frantic disembowelment

Kidneys exposed
The pancreas flew
Stomach deleted
The spleen I did chew
The carving is over
You lost and I won
Fulfilling my dream
I killed you for fun

Frenzied hacking
Morals lacking
Eviscerate
Life is gone before my eyes

Frantic disembowelment!!!

shitting in the alley outside your window
Nine Inch Nails - Something I Can Never Have

I still recall the taste of your tears
Echoing your voice just like the ringing in my ears
My favorite dreams of you still wash ashore
Scraping through my head 'till I don't want to sleep anymore

You make this all go away
You make this all go away
I'm down to just one thing
And I'm starting to scare myself
You make this all go away
You make this all go away
I just want something
I just want something I can never have

You always were the one to show me how
Back then I couldn't do the things that I can do now
This thing is slowly taking me apart
Grey would be the color if I had a heart
Come on tell me

You make this all go away
You make this all go away
I'm down to just one thing
And I'm starting to scare myself
You make this all go away
You make this all go away
I just want something
I just want something I can never have

In this place it seems like such a shame
Though it all looks different now
I know it's still the same
Everywhere I look, you're all I see
Just a fading fucking reminder of who I used to be
Come on tell me

You make this all go away.
You make this all go away
I'm down to just one thing
And I'm starting to scare myself
You make this all go away
You make it all go away
I just want something
I just want something I can never have
I just want something I can never have
