The lyric game...

Ok, so I know this took much longer than I said it would....so sorry. But, after to much time...here it is. These are my 25 random songs from my ipod. I am giving you lyrics from all of them, now you have to guess what the song is and who the artist/band is. Good luck. NO CHEATING!!! ;)

1) “I’m under your spell like a man in a trance, but I know darn well that I don’t stand a chance.”
2) “So if you’re lonely, you know I’m here waiting for you. I’m just a crosshair. I’m just a shot away from you.”
3) “Because I can’t afford to pay for most of what I say. So it’s a lucky thing that the truth’s public domain.”
4) “I know you haven’t made your mind up yet, but I would never do you wrong. I’ve known it from the moment that we met, no doubt in my mind where you belong.”
5) “I see you’ve sent my letters back and my LP records and they’re all scratched. I can’t see the point in another day, when nobody listens to a word I say.”
6) “While you make pretty speeches, I’m being cut to shreds. You feed me to the lions, a delicate balance.”
7) “If I wrote you a symphony just to say how much you mean to me. If I told you you were beautiful, would you date me on the regular?”
8) “As he came into the window, it was the sound of a crescendo.”
9) “I’ve been down and I’m wondering why these little black clouds keep walking around with me.”
10) “I am the next act waiting in the wings. I am an animal trapped in your hot car. I am all the days that you choose to ignore.”
11) “It is the path where the humble go. It is the narrow not the broad. It is the pathway down the hill to the graveyard of the living God.”
12) “She comes and goes and no one knows. She’s slipping through my hands.”
13) “I spun a web, it’s tangled up with me, and I lost my head, the thought of all the stupid things I said.”
14) “And I want to wake up with the rain, falling on a tin roof, while I’m safe there in your arms.”
15) “Started out this morning in the usual way, chasing thoughts inside my head of all I had to do today.”
16) “There is a place where no plow blade has ever turned the ground, and you will turn it over, ‘cause out here hope remains.”
17) “Spend all your time waiting for that second chance, for a break that would make it okay.”
18) “Don’t you wake up yet, give me some time to watch you asleep.”
19) “Love was kept from me like a secret, and I swore that I was through.”
20) “I am he as you are he as you are me and we are all together.”
21) “Step out the door and it feels like rain, that’s the sound on your window pane. Take to the streets but you can’t ignore, that’s the sound you’re waiting for.”
22) “I had a big idea. I had a crazy eye. I broke the sacred seal. I told a lazy lie.”
23) “We get some rules to follow. That and this, these and those.”
24) “I feel asleep on a late night train. I missed my stop and I went round again.”
25) “Those are some of my favorite memories, all those carefree melodies. While I’m out of here on this raging sea about to capsize.”


Hope you enjoy.
