Tim Kasher – Stranger Than Strangers Lyrics 19 years ago
the music is so great too, he is a minor god



I might not make it home
So don’t set a plate for me
Our department’s been getting slammed
Since the comebacks in marketing
Put your pictures on my desk
I’m wearing the sweater you made
So give the girls a kiss for me
Tell them daddy’s working late

The worst thing that she ever said to me
Was the first thing that she ever said to me
I was all alone at happy hour
She thought I could use some company
It’s strange we’re strangers

I might not make it home
I guess I’ve used than line before
My excuses are wearing thin
And you patience is getting worse
You’re always fast asleep
When I sneak into be at night
Or at least that’s how it seems, It seems
we’ll do anything to hide the lie

The worst thing you could ever say to me
Could be the last thing that you’ll ever say to me
I can see you boxing up the kitchen
With the girls beside you wrapping dishes
Don’t be a stranger

You don’t have to say a word
You don’t have to make excuses
You don’t have to change for me
We’ll continue on as strangers

You don’t have to say a word
(The worst thing that she ever said to me)
You don’t have to make excuses
(Was the first thing that she ever said to me)
You don’t have to change for me
(I was all alone at happy hour)
We’ll continue on as strangers
(She thought I could use some company)
Stranger than strangers…

Jets to Brazil – You're Having the Time of My Life Lyrics 19 years ago
"when you become a stranger again
how closed your eyes will be
narrowing me to three short feet
across a room of drunken revelry

you're having the time of my life
and I love you much too late
there are things i'd like to say
so many things I'd like to change

when you say my name to me
like some amusing piece of food between your teeth
then we'll know it's completely over
won't you say my name to me, to me?

you're having the time of my life
and I think you got it right
it's an envy making green
says your eyes see only me

if i had another last chance
and we met again
for the first time

I would listen to your heart
I would start back at the start
there are things i'd like to say
so many things i'd like to change"

ironicly it was submitted by "Typo"

Kevin Devine – Cotton Crush Lyrics 20 years ago
Kevins Father passed away last year, he had quite an hard time, as any decent and loving human would with that, alot of the people he thought were his friends ended up not being there for him, (he makes references to the failure of friendship in a few songs) he had been very let down byt the people he thought could be there to help him through tat hard time, I assume he ended up spending alot of time alone, stoned, and saw some girl wearing one of his shirts (more likely a Miracle of 86 shirt, but you people have no idea anyway)
and seeing that and having the mixture of feeling of being let down by people you trusted, feeling the loss of his best friend (his father), and thinking of the band he disbanded and moved on from where too much at once
he was done..
he just wants life to be good again, simple..
the simple sounds of life, not the static [the drama]

You And I – Tell Me About Your Childhood Lyrics 20 years ago
oh, and the rest of the band's lyrics in the song are:

i just thought that i'd say all that i want. i'd never tell of the calm just to say something. listen hard. listen well. you will never take me alive. you try to enunciate yourself. but it's all words. try to get away. it's all this. took you from me just in spite. still i'm listening. can you tell. all these questions. these fucking questions took the breath straight from me. all in me. this simpleton. try not to concentrate. to recapture a home. and come to me. and still i'm suffering. just waiting for something. we sleep alone at night. you've never been for you. the voice of senseless suffering. come on, exist. to wish on mediation. formed tightly. this is the method.

You And I – Forever Lasts A Moment Lyrics 21 years ago
i know the trees lost their leaves longs ago, its just the air seems so much colder now, if i could do it again i'd do it differently, do you hear the bells ringing, they're ringing, but where is my angel, but where is my angel, words they come and kill, never long enough, but where is my angel, but where is my love(you said forever would last this time) waiting (you speak as fast as you leave), these past few weeks have been hard, and i just sit there and tell myself that it will workout in the end, always fooling ourselves these times of watered eyes, i felt selfish having desires, you'll have to excuse me because i'm so selfish, i just realize there somethings i need, isn't this life so wonderful, isn't this life so wonderful,isn't this life so wonderful, this life is fucking shit, the bells are ringing but where's my angel, i never believed in much but i believed in you, surrendered everything but your not listening, if i had known this yesterday, i would have killed myself, because forever lasts a moment, what is sense(so high on adoration) from cold hands, (its like kissing long, lost love but november has chapped my lips, cracked lips bleed), some years before or years after, sense driven lips they wandered, where's my angel, (i carved"hope" in my wrist, i bled hope from my life), sound in, but where's my angel( no i can't see the truth in your eyes), ask what would you fall in love for, touch it and so it died, what's that in pretentious dreams, mechanic humility, where's my angel.
