Dusk and Summer by Dashboard Confessional

She smiled in a big way, the way a girl like that smiles
When the world is hers and she held your eyes
Out in the breezeway down by the shore in the lazy summer
And she pulled you in, and she bit your lip, and she made you hers
She looked deep into you as you lay together quiet in the grasp of dusk and summer
But you've already lost
When you only had barely enough to hang on
And she combed your hair, and she kissed your teeth
And she made you better than you'd been before
She told you bad things you wished you could change in the lazy summer
And she told you, laughing down to her core, so she would not cry as she lay in your lap
She said "nobody here can live forever, quiet in the grasp of dusk and summer"
But you've already lost
When you only had barely enough to hang on
She said, "no one is alone the way you are alone"
And you held her looser than you would have if you ever could have known
Some things tie your life together, slender threads and things to treasure
Days like that should last and last and last
But you've already lost
When you only had barely enough of her to hang on

Say Hey by Michael Franti

This one goes out to you and yours worldwide
I say hey I'll be gone today
But I'll be back all around the way
It seems like everywhere I go
The more I see, the less I know
But I know one thing
That I love you
I love you, I love you, I love you
I’ve been a lot of places all around the way
I’ve seen a lot joy and I’ve seen a lot of pain
but I don’t want to write a love song for the world,
I just want to write a song about a boy and a girl
Junkies on the corner always calling my name
And the kids on the corner playing ghetto games
When I saw you getting down well I hoped it was you
And when I looked into your eyes I knew it was true
I say hey, I'll be gone today
But I'll be back all around the way
It seems like everywhere I go
The more I see, the less I know
But I know one thing
That I love you
I love you, I love you, I love you
Now I’m not a highly metaphysical man
But I know when the stars are aligned you can
bump into person in the middle of the road
look into their eyes and you suddenly know
Rocking in the dance hall moving with you
Dancing in the night in the middle of June
My momma told me don’t lose you
‘cause the best luck I had was you
I said hey I'll be gone today
But I'll be back all around the way
It seems like everywhere I go
The more I see the less I know
But I know one thing
That I love you
I love you, I love you, I love you
And I said rocking in the dance hall moving with you
I said Hey momma hey momma close to you
Rocking in the dance hall moving with you
I said hey papa, hey papa close to you
Rocking in the dance hall moving with you
I said Hey Momma close to you
Rocking in the dance hall moving with you I said
hey momma, hey momma, hey momma, hey momma
hey momma, hey momma, hey momma, hey momma
what you gonna do?
My momma told me don’t lose you
Cause the best luck I had was you
And I know one thing that I love you
I said I'll be gone today
but I’ll be back all around the way
It seems like everywhere I go
The more I see, the less I know
I said I'll be gone today
but I’ll be back all around the way
It seems like everywhere I go
The more I see the less I know
But I know one thing that I love you
I love you, I love you, I love you
I love you, I love you, I love you
I love you, I love you, I love you

Blankest Year by Nada Surf

Oh fuck it
I'm going to have a party
Oh fuck it
I'm going to have a party
I had the blankest year
I saw life turn into a tv show
It Was Totally Weird
The person I knew
I didn't really know
Time don't move
We're the only ones who do
Bending reason
Cause it's all we hold on to
I had the blankest year
I saw life turn into a tv show
It Was Totally Weird
The person I knew
I didn't really know
And now it's lonely
Thank god the band's doing well
But you don't own me
I'd like to return this spell
It's not my size
Your lies are so much bigger
Than my lies
And your ties are made of things
That shouldn't make ties
Oh fuck it (fuck it)
I'm going to have a party
Oh fuck it (fuck it)
I'm going to have a party
Oh fuck it
I'm going to have a party
