You said you'd die for me
You said you'd die for me
So why can't you live for me?
Why won't you live for me?

02. Female Of The Species - Space, guessed by bogwitch
Shock shock horror horror
Shock shock horror
I'll shout myself hoarse for your supernatural force

03. Smells Like Teen Spirit - Nirvana, guessed by skylar_muc

Bring your friends
It's fun to lose
And to pretend

This week dragged past me so slowly
The days fell on their knees
Maybe I'll take something to help me
Hope someone takes after me

I came down at your
On the National Express
Request to touch your breasts

Spill up my back
Keep me filled with
Satisfaction when we're done
Satisfaction of what's to come

Let me put you in the picture, let me show you what I mean
The messiah is my sister, ain't no king man, she's my queen

Butterflies and zebras
And moonbeams and fairy tales
That's all she ever thinks about

09. Kings Of The Wild Frontier - Adam & The Ants, guessed by anonypooh
And even when you're healthy
And your colour schemes delight
Down below those dandy clothes
You're just a shade too white

10. Bittersweet Symphony - The Verve, guessed by skylar_muc
Well, I've never prayed,
But tonight I'm on my knees, yeah
I need to hear some sounds that recognize the pain in me, yeah

11.
The rhythm of my footsteps crossing floodlands to your door
Have been silenced forever more.
The distance is quite simply much too far for me to row
It seems farther than ever before.

12.
Welcome to this one man show
Just take a seat, they're always free
No surprise, no mystery
In this theatre that I call my soul
I always play the starring role

13.
You may go charging at windmills
In these days
Absurdities never change

14.
I ask you how hot can it get
And as you wipe off beads of sweat
Slowly you say "I’m not there yet!"

15.
I need someone who understands.
I need someone, someone who hears,
For you, I've waited all these years.

16.
I'd do anything to see you smile again
And I'd go anywhere so as not to feel your pain
I wanna live where the fear is all gone
Wanna protect and know what it's from
I wasn't made for secrets like these
Chinese whispers, memories

17.
How I wish I'd been unborn
Wish I was unliving here

18. Just Like Heaven - The Cure, guessed by bogwitch
"Show me show me show me how you do that trick
The one that makes me scream" she said
"The one that makes me laugh" she said
And threw her arms around my neck

19.
Where did you come from, baby?
How did you know I needed you?
How did you know I needed you so badly?
How did you know I'd give my heart gladly?

20.
So now you send me your hardened regards
When once you'd send me love
Sincerely I must tell you
Your mild best wishes
They make me suspicious

21. First Day Of My Life - Bright Eyes, guessed by skylar_muc
So if you want to be with me
With these things there’s no telling
We just have to wait and see
But I’d rather be working for a paycheck
Than waiting to win the lottery

22.
Just because you were right before
Doesn't mean you're right
To make up now would just vindicate
Every doubt I had

23. London Calling - The Clash, guessed by skylar_muc
The ice age is coming, the sun's zooming in
Meltdown expected, the wheat is growing thin
Engines stop running, but I have no fear

You gave your body to the lonely
They took your clothes
You gave up a wife and a family
You gave your ghost

25. Jump - Van Halen, guessed by bogwitch
I get up, and nothing gets me down
You got it tough; I've seen the toughest all around
And I know, baby, just how you feel
You've got to roll with the punches to get to what's real

26.
Sing for your lover
Who's waiting at home
If you sing when you're high
And you're dry as a bone
Then you must realise
That you're never alone
And you'll sing with the dead instead

27.
There was a factory- now there are mountains and rivers
(you got it, you got it)
We caught a rattlesnake - now we got something for dinner
(we got it, we got it)
There was a shopping mall - now it's all covered with flowers
(you've got it, you've got it)
If this is paradise, I wish I had a lawnmower!

28. Every Day Should Be A Holiday - The Dandy Warhols, guessed by skylar_muc
Summertime, if I was getting paid
For getting drunk and getting laid.
I'd grab a phone just to call you up and say
"Quit your job, 'cause I got it made"

29. When Doves Cry - Prince, guessed by bogwitch
Touch if u will my stomach
Feel how it trembles inside
You've got the butterflies all tied up

Actually, it was Damien Rice's cover version that my Zen played me earlier, but Prince'll do fine

Everything is possible in the game of life
A burning dream
You can be queen
Everything is possible

31.The Look Of Love - ABC, guessed by anonypooh
If you judge a book by the cover,
Then you judge the look by the lover
I hope you'll soon recover,
Me, I go from one extreme to another

Your kiss filled with tenderness
I want all I can get of your sexiness
Showers, your love comes in showers
And every hour on the hour
You let me feel your loving power

33. Firestarter - The Prodigy, guessed by skylar_muc
I'm the bitch you hated, filth infatuated.
Yeah, I'm the pain you tasted, fell intoxicated

Whispering cosmos
Talking right to me
Unlimited, endless
God breathing through me

No wages for your torturers
No budget for your guns
Can you think of your own mother
Dancing with her invisible son?
