18. Little by little I've come to this point, on my own I've been searching my way.

19. Like walking into a dream, so unlike what you've seen so unsure but it seems, ’cause we’ve been waiting for you.

20. I am outside and I've been waiting for the sun, with my wide eyes I've seen worlds that don't belong.

21. [s]Missed me, missed me, now you've got to kiss me.[/s]

22. Felt too much, did she feel a thing? Long dark hair, never saw her cry. In to halves, I was torn, my maybe-love couldn't even try.

23. [s]I've paid my dues, time after time, I've done my sentence but committed no crime.[/s]

24. She is all that I could live for everyday, everyday. She's my star in a world so far, far away.

25. All the vixens stand in line, waiting for my fright night, be the new flesh for the sacrifice.

That's all I know Anyway, here're mine:

1. She said she saw me on TV - this girl's a legend in the late night scene
2. You and I are mortal, but rock and roll will never die
3. They've tried hard to put me in my place, and that is why I've gotta keep running
4. Let me take your hands, I'm shaking like milk. Turning, turning blue all over the windows and the floors.
5. I noticed I've been looking around still hoping that we'd work out.
6. Eyes like flowers, I love the way you see. You see, you see you're the best thing that's happened to me.
[s]7. Things are shaping up to be pretty odd. Little deaths in musical beds. So it seems I'm someone I never met.[/s]
8. Tangled in feathers, tired and hoarse, caught up in tethers, you are the source.
[s]9. I'm telling you to loosen up my buttons babe, but you keep fronting, saying what you gonna do to me, but I ain't seen nothing yet[/s]
[s]10. I looked up this morning, and the sun was gone. Turned on some music to start my day.[/s]
11. Deep in the belly of a whale I found her, down with a deep blue jail around her
[s]12. I'm gonna fight em off, a seven nation army couldn't hold me back.[/s]
13. You won't admit you love me, and so, how am I ever to know?
14. I used to dream until I stopped writing fiction, alright well that's not true.
15. He'll call my name; I'll turn my head; he got no words to say.
16. What do you think of me, are you quite proud of this make-believe curtain that hangs around everything you can admire in that girl
17. I've never known you, but I'm no stranger to this feeling. I know it's over, but the hurt's not.
18. In a field outside of town, we could always be alone. Carry a blanket, maybe a basket.
19. Take my hand and follow me to bed, say you didn't really mean it when you told me to go drop dead
20. I got a feeling she keeps me in the dark, I gotta keep my eye on her she ain't no walk in the park
[s]21. Boys and girls of every age, wouldn't you like to see something strange?[/s]
22. No matter which way you go, no matter which way you stay, you're out of my mind
23. Oh, why you look sad? Tears are in your eyes.
[s]24. I want a girl with a mind like a diamond. I want a girl who knows what's best.[/s]
25. I'm back on dry land once again, opportunity awaits me like a rat in the drain.

10. I looked up this morning, and the sun was gone. Turned on some music to start my day.

-- I love that song. It's Boston, isn't it?

21. Boys and girls of every age, wouldn't you like to see something strange?

This song is also awesome. It is "This is Halloween" isn't it?

The battery for my iPod is flat right now, so I'll have to come back to this one, as fun as it looks.
