Not Even Jail by Interpol
I pretend like no one else to try to control myself
I'm subtle like a lion's cage, such a cautious display
Remember take hold of your time here
Give some meanings to the means
To your end
Not even jail

Heathens by Twenty One Pilots
Just because we check the guns at the door
Doesn't mean our brains will change from hand grenades
You'll never know the psychopath sitting next to you
You'll never know the murderer sitting next to you

Poison by Alice Cooper
I wanna hurt you just to hear you screaming my name
I wanna touch you but you're under my skin
I wanna kiss you but your lips are venomous poison

This Is The Last Time by The National
I wish everybody knew
What's so great about you
Oh but your love is such a swamp
You don't think before you jump
And I said I wouldn't get sucked in...

Evil by Interpol
Spent a life span with no cell mate
The long way back
Saying "hey, why can't we look the other way?"
You're weightless, semi-erotic
You need someone to take you there

Disarm by Smashing Pumpkins
What I choose is my choice, what's a boy supposed to do?
The killer in me is the killer in you, my love
I send a smile over to you
Disarm you with a smile
And leave you like they left me here
To wither in denial

I Want You To Want Me by Cheap Trick
I want you to want me
I need you to need me
I'd love you to love me
I'm begging you to beg me

Angels by The XX
Light reflects from your shadow and it's more than I thought could exist
You move through the room
Like breathing was easy
If someone believed me
They would be as in love with you as I am

Affection by Cigarettes After Sex
What does it mean, if I tell you to go fuck yourself?
Or if I say that you're beautiful to me?
It's affection, always
Ooh, you're gonna see it some day
My attention for you
Even if it's not what you need

Little Motel by Modest Mouse
We trade tit for that like that for this
And I don't think there was an insult that was missed
I can see it in your eyes like I taste your lips
And, I'm very sorry

First Day of My Life by Bright Eyes
I'm glad I didn't die before I met you
Now I don't care, I could go anywhere with you
And I'd probably be happy
So if you wanna be with me
With these things there's no telling
We'll just have to wait and see

To Be Alone With You by Sufjan Stevens 
You gave up a wife and a family
You gave your ghosts
To be alone with me

Guest Room by The National
They're gonna send us to prison for jerks
For having vague ideas of a way to turn each-other on again
They're gonna send us to prison for jerks
They'll find us here
Here, here in the guest room
Where we throw money at each-other and cry

Fake Empire by The National
Turn the light off, say goodnight
No thinking for a little while
Let's not try to figure out everything at once

This Heart Attack by Faker
I've gotta get away not coming back
I want some downtime
So call me when you can some other time
I'm going away to be alone

In Your Eyes by Peter Gabriel
Love, I don't like to see so much pain
So much wasted and this moment keeps slipping away
I get so tired of working so hard for our survival
I look to the time with you to keep me awake and alive

Love Will Tear Us Apart by Joy Division
You cry out in your sleep,
All my failings exposed.
And there's a taste in my mouth,
As desperation takes hold
Just it's something so good
Just can't function no more
But love, love will tear us apart again

It Had To Be You by Frank Sinatra
It had to be you, it had to be you
I wandered around and finally found somebody who
Could make be true
And could make me be blue
And even be glad, just to be sad, thinking of you
