‘ am i more than you bargained for yet? ’
‘ cause that’s just who i am this week. ’
‘ isn’t it messed up how i’m just dying to be him? ’
‘ i confess, i messed up. ’
‘ i don’t blame you for being you, but you can’t blame me for hating it. ’
‘ darling, what did you expect? ’
‘ i could have died with you. ’
‘ let’s play this came called ‘when you catch fire i wouldn’t piss to put you out.’ ’
‘ breaking hearts has never looked so cool. ’
‘ you were the last good thing about this part of town. ’
‘ i’m not a shoulder to cry on, but i digress. ’
‘ i wrote the gospel on giving up. ’
‘ joke me something awful just like kisses on the necks of best friends. ’
‘ my back is breaking from this heavy heart. ’
‘ thanks for the memories even though they weren’t so great. ’
‘ see, he tastes like you, only sweeter. ’
‘ get me out of my mind and get you out of those clothes. ’
‘ i’m a liner away from getting you into the mood. ’
‘ last year’s wishes are this years apologies. ’
‘ we’re the new face of failure. prettier and younger, but not any better off. ’MY CHEMICAL ROMANCE
‘ what’s the worst that i can say? ’
‘ things are better if i stay. ’
‘ so long and goodnight. ’
‘ and then we’ll meet again when both our cars collide. ’
‘ never think i’ll make you try to stay. ’
‘ i don’t love you like i did yesterday. ’
‘ fix your eyes and get up. ’
‘ i never said i’d lie and wait forever. ’
‘ you are never coming home. ’
‘ if you wanted honesty that’s all you had to say. ’
‘ i never want to let you down or have you go. ’
‘ i’m not okay. ’
‘ for the last time, take a good hard look. ’
‘ when i was a young boy my father took me into the city to see a marching band. ’
‘ we’ll carry on. ’
‘ your misery and hate will kill us all. ’
‘ the world will never take my heart. ’
‘ go and try, you’ll never break me. ’
‘ give a cheer for the broken. ’
‘ teenagers scare the living shit out of me. ’
‘ you’re never gonna fit in much, kid. ’TAKING BACK SUNDAY
‘ can’t you just forget it? ’
‘ i started something i couldn’t finish. ’
‘ if we go down, we go down together. ’
‘ everything i know about breaking hearts i learned from you. ’
‘ i’ve made long term plans based on these mistakes. ’
‘ don’t let it get to your head. ’
‘ boys like you are a dime a dozen. ’
‘ you’re a touch overrated. ’
‘ you’e a lush and i hate it. ’
‘ all i need to know is that i’m something you’ll be missing. ’
‘ maybe i should hate you for this. ’
‘ i’d never lie to you unless i had to. ’
‘ the truth is that you could slit my throat and with my one last gasping breath, i’d apologize for bleeding on your shirt. ’
‘ you are everything i want cause you are everything i’m not. ’
‘ i just wanna break you down so badly in the worst way. ’
‘ i’m gonna make damn sure that you can’t ever leave. ’
‘ you won’t ever get too far from me. ’
‘ your lipstick, his collar… don’t bother, angel. i know exactly what goes on. ’
‘ will you tell all your friends you’ve got your gun to my head? ’
‘ that all was only wishful thinking. ’PANIC AT THE DISCO
‘ am i who you think about in bed? ’
‘ i’ve got more wit, a better kiss, a hotter touch, a better fuck. ’
‘ sweetie, you had me. ’
‘ no, no, no, you know it will always be me. ’
‘ i hope you didn’t expect to get all of the attention. ’
‘ what a shame, the poor groom’s bride is a whore. ’
‘ haven’t you people ever heard of closing the goddamn door? ’
‘ i mean, technically our marriage is saved. ’
‘ it’s much better to face these things with a sense of poise and rationality. ’
‘ it’s just the end of the world. ’
‘ things are shaping up to be pretty odd. ’
‘ now i’m the only one to blame. ’
‘ things have changed for me, and that’s okay. ’
‘ northern downpour sends its love. ’
‘ you clicked your heels and wished for me. ’
‘ i know the worlds a broken bone. ’ALL-AMERICAN REJECTS
‘ your subtleties, they strangle me. ’
‘ i can’t explain myself at all. ’
‘ maybe it’s best you leave me alone. ’
‘ i can’t explain what you can’t explain. ’
‘ it ends tonight. ’
‘ when you see my face, i hope it gives you hell. ’
‘ truth be told, i miss you. ’
‘ truth be told, i miss you. and truth be told, i’m lying. ’
‘ if you find a man that’s worth a damn and treats you well then he’s a fool. ’
‘ you’ll never see what you’ve done to me. ’
‘ you can take back your memories, they’re no good for me. ’
‘ let me know what i’ve done wrong. ’
‘ you are the only one that needs to know. ’
‘ i’ll keep you my dirty little secret. ’
‘ don’t tell anyone or you’ll be just another regret. ’
‘ speak to me. ’
‘ when all you got to keep is strong, move along. ’
‘ when everything is wrong, we move along. ’
‘ i’m dreaming of her. ’
‘ the nights are long and i am left while the tears fall. ’
‘ did you think that i would cry on the phone? ’
‘ do you know what it feels like being alone? ’
‘ i’ll find someone new. ’
‘ can you help me find a way to carry on again. ’MAYDAY PARADE
‘ may i say i loved you more? ’
‘ this time we spent together was meant to last us for awhile. ’
‘ you’re an angel sent to save. ’
‘ if you go down, i go with you. ’
‘ let’s drink to memories we shared. ’
‘ before too long, you’ll be a memory. ’
‘ so tell me honestly, did you ever really wan this? ’
‘ my jealous heart can’t take that. ’
‘ i’ll be okay. is that what you want me to say? ’
‘ it’s called break-up ‘cause it’s broken. ’
‘ please don’t tell me that i’m dreaming. ’
‘ i’m throwing away pictures that i never should have taken in the first place. ’
‘ i’m just hoping you’re not seeing his face. ’
‘ it was him that took my place. ’
‘ even broken hearts may have their doubts. ’
‘ you smiled the whole way through it, i guess maybe that’s what’s worse. ’
‘ i hope this makes you happy now. ’
‘ take me home. ’
‘ i’d rather die than be with you. ’
‘ i know you’re trying your hardest. ’
‘ the hardest part is letting go of the nights we shared. ’
‘ compared to your eyes, nothing shines quite as bright. ’
‘ let’s not pretend like you’re alone tonight, i know he’s there. ’
‘ i guess that i can live without you but without you i’ll be miserable at best. ’
‘ without you i’ll be miserable at best. ’
‘ you’re all that i hoped i’d find in every single way. ’
‘ the hardest part of living is just taking breaths to stay. ’
‘ it’s been three whole days since i’ve had sleep ‘cause i dream of his lips on your cheeks. ’
‘ i got the point that i should leave you alone, but we both know that i’m not that strong. ’
‘ i miss the lips that made me fly. ’
‘ young love is such dumb love. ’
‘ you’re still out of my reach. ’
‘ how could i ask you to leave me? ’
‘ we were just kids in love. ’
‘ the first kiss stole the breath from my lips. why did the last one tear us apart? ’
