driver picks the music

do me a favor - arctic monkeys
"well, the morning was complete
where there was tears on the steering wheel, dripping on the seat"

"it's the beginning of the end
the car went up the hill and disappeared around the bend"

"curiosity becomes a heavy load, too heavy to hold, will force you to be cold"

"and to tear apart the ties that bind,
perhaps fuck off might be too kind"


dunes - alabama shakes
"somewhere in me, a memory that i cannot gather"


survival song - ajj
"i broke my promise on a very sharp rock
and i was possessed by something quite unfriendly
and i was haunted by a demon in my sleep
and that’s how i learned how to survive"


heat of the moment - asia
"i never meant to be so bad to you
one thing i said that i would never do"


be nice to me - the front bottoms
"there is very little left of me and it's never coming back"

"i try to show emotion, but my eyes won't seem to wet"


twin sized mattress - the front bottoms
"with tears in my eyes, i begged you to stay
you said, "hey man, i love you, but no fucking way!"

"she hopes I'm cursed forever
to sleep on a twin-sized mattress
in somebody's attic or basement my whole life
never graduating up in size to add another
and my nightmares will have nightmares every night
oh, every night, every night"


devil town - cavetown
"dad has bought a new car now
we're fine, no one's gonna catch us now"

"i forgot my name again
i think that's something worth remembering"

"i'll lose my mind at least another thousand times
hold my hand tight, we'll make it another night
i still get a little scared of something new
but i feel a little safer when i'm with you"


monster - dodie
"i'm guessing that i've grown horns
i guess i'm human no more"

"we shout in our heads
are you still in there?
well this ends bad, then
we knew it would"


piano man - billy joel
"he says, "son can you play me a memory?
i'm not really sure how it goes
but it's sad and it's sweet and i knew it complete
when i wore a younger man's clothes"

"yes, they're sharing a drink they call loneliness
but it's better than drinkin' alone"


second child, restless child - the oh hellos
"and they saw trouble in my eyes
they were quick to recognize the devil in me"

"and Heaven knows how hard i tried
but the devil whispered lies i believed"


stressed out - 21 pilots
"it'd be to my brother, 'cause we have the same nose
same clothes, homegrown, a stone's throw from a creek we used to roam"


oh ana - mother mother
"i'll be God, i'll be God, i'll be God today
hold my head under the bath and breathe away"


take me to church - hozier
"i'll tell you my sins and you can sharpen your knife"

"only then, i am human,
only then, i am clean"


moon river - audrey hepburn
"two drifters, off to see the world
there's such a lot of world to see"


number 41 - dave matthews band
"all at once the ghosts come back
reeling in you now
oh, what if they came down crushing?"


only time will tell - asia
"if you were wrong
the brightest ring around the moon
will darken when I die"


eighth wonder - lemon demon
"ill never die
i am a freak"

"eighth wonder of the world
you'll never get to see
what in the name of God can i be?"


feel better - penelope scott

"i don't wanna get over you
i wanna sit with you in bed"

"a book sits on top of clean and messy blankets
on a bed that fuckin' creaks at night when i get in it late"

"or i'm a sad boy in a dorm room, living out the shady Christian plot of
Twilight or The Bible or The Lover by Duras
or i'm just really fuckin' selfish and really fuckin' lost"

"i am an awkward teenage virgin and i sort of kinda laugh a lot in bed
but other times, i cry or don't make noise at all
i'd give my life to have a room that feels that small"

"goddamn it, i was worth something, i fuckin' earned something
i have a right to die, a right to live, a right to choose, too"

"of course it hurt, of course it fuckin' hurt
it hurt like nothing in the world sometimes
that i was super scared, and we were all a train-wreck
and also somehow making it
i think i might've died there twice, and i would do it all again"

"i'm a nihilist, a soldier, an OCD-machine
or i'm a healthy baby-boy who traded sunshine for disease
but when my head hit my cheap pillow, i could tell i had a heart
and i wanna tear this fascist Milky Way apart"


father - the front bottoms
"and maybe halfway through, it has more to do with me killing him
then it ever did protecting myself
and i believe that, yeah, Dad, maybe no one is perfect
but i believe that you were pushing your luck
it just sucks it played out like this
a terrible movie and you can tell none of the actors even give a fuck"

"and when i crawl out in the morning
can i stay inside your head?"


dirty imbescile - the happy fits
