    Time Event
    3:32p
    i never told you to
    i never think about you
    i never held you
    i forget how to
    i never cared about you
    i never saw that in you
    i never loved you
    3:45p
    brace yourself. i am bent with bitterness. when your apologies fail to ring true, you are so slick with that sarcastic slew or phrases like, "i thought you knew," while keeping me in hot pursuit.
    3:47p
    Untouchable Face- Ani DiFranco

    think i'm going for a walk now
    i feel a little unsteady
    i don't want nobody to follow me
    'cept maybe you
    i could make you happy you know
    if you weren't already
    i could do a lot of things
    and i do

    tell you the truth i prefer
    the worst of you
    too bad you had to have a better half
    she's not really my type
    but i think you two are forever
    and i hate to say it but
    you're perfect together

    so fuck you
    and your untouchable face
    and fuck you
    for existing in the first place
    and who am i
    that i should be vying for your touch
    and who am i
    i bet you can't even tell me that much

    two-thirty in the morning
    and my gas tank will be empty soon
    neon sign on the horizon
    rubbing elbows with the moon
    a safe haven of sleepless
    where the deep fryer's always on
    radio is counting down
    the top 20 country songs
    and out on the porch the fly strip is
    waving like a flag in the wind
    y'know, i don't look forward
    to seeing you again soon
    you'll look like a photograph of yourself
    taken from far far away
    and i won't know what to do
    and i won't know what to say

    except fuck you...

    i see you and i'm so perplexed
    what was i thinking
    what will i think of next
    where can i hide
    in the back room there's a lamp
    that hangs over the pool table
    and when the fan is on it swings
    gently side to side
    there's a changing constellation
    of balls as we are playing
    i see orion and say nothing
    the only thing i can think of saying

    is fuck you...
    3:54p
    i've got a big fat fucking bone to pick with you my darling. in case you haven't heard, i'm sick and tired of trying. i wish you would take my radio to bathe with you, plugged in and ready to fall.
    3:56p
    My Everything- Cauterize

    I still miss you, I still care, sometimes I swear you're still here.
    Do you miss me?
    Do you care?
    Does it hurt that I'm not there?

    Told me you need something better.
    What is better than love?
    Told me you need something new.
    But all I need is you to feel the way you make me feel.

    I never meant to hurt you, never meant to say those things,
    never meant to write them down in a song about the way it used to be.
    It used to be so good.
    You used to be my everything.

    I just want you to know that I'm just fine on my own.
    Do you want me to know that you hate being alone?

    Did you think I would fall for this over again we're repeating.
    Did you think I would crawl back,
    crawl back one more time to feel the way I feel.

    How's your hand?
    My eyes healed nicely.
    How's the time pass by without me?
    I hope this hurts like hell cause why should you be fine?
    3:58p
    goodbye to you, goodbye to you - you are taking up my time. i am about to see a million things i thought i'd never see before and i, i am about to do all of the things i've dreamed of and i don't even miss you at all.
    3:59p
    Surprise, Surprise- The Starting Line

    "Hey there love, let's get to catching up.
    'Cause I been thinking those thoughts
    that must have slipped my mind
    that time that I left you there that night."
    I replied, "Let me remind you of the guy
    you failed to mention all along.
    'Cause your actions have consequences and these are them."

    I'll be your friend in hell, until then I despise you.
    And I probably always will.
    I can't afford to make another mistake like this,
    'Cause this is more than I can take.
    I don't mean to leave angry, this is by your own devise.
    I'm sure this comes as no surprise.

    Hey there babe, don't mean to cut you off,
    but I've heard enough lies and you're dying to get caught.
    I'll let you go call all your friends.
    "Oh my god! Let me describe to you this guy,
    his name is Ken, he's in this band that writes such,
    awful songs about me all the time."
    You're goddamn right!

    I'll be your friend in hell, until then I despise you.
    And I probably always will.
    I can't afford to make another mistake like this,
    'Cause this is more than I can take.
    I don't mean to leave angry, this is by your own devise.
    I'm sure this comes as...

    Oh, I'm fine, just let me lie here for a while,
    'Cause I'll be staying up, yeah hanging up all night.
    Oh, I'm spent of all attention that I've given.
    To a hopeless case, to a sharp headache, to a choice you make
    To the reason why I, to the reason why I say.

    I'll be your friend in hell, until then I despise you.
    And I probably always will.
    I can't afford to make another mistake like you.
    I'm sure this comes as no surprise.
    I'm sure this comes as no surprise.
    Surprise, surprise.

    Is This Thing Loaded?- Northstar

    There's something about a morning without the picture perfect ribbons in her hair
    It's raining, she knows that she wants to let me in

    Cause my dear I can't breathe out here
    It's cold so tell me why
    I break to pieces for hopeless reasons
    Stereo therapy heals my lesions

    Do you know what it's like to hurt at night for oh no reason?
    Do you know what it's like?

    So forget the feelings so few have
    She says I love you to death
    And forget the feelings so few have
    Forget our future we don't have

    Four-flush and forget I make you feel like a harlot, does he know I'm here?
    So please dear untie me before we drive that awful extra mile
    And at night I dream about that smile
    And the jealousy that's gleaming on our teeth
    There's something about a morning without that perfect picture...

    Do you know what it's like to hurt at night for oh no reason?
    Do you know what it's like?

    So forget the feelings so few have
    She says I love you to death
    And forget the feelings so few have
    Fuck you and the future we don't have

    So forget the feelings so few have
    She says I love you to death
    And forget the feelings so few have
    Fuck you and the future we don't have

    Dying Slowly- Northstar

    I feel like I'm drowning myself in you
    and I want to breathe until my lungs fail
    so I sit underneath the heavens
    staring at the scar on my face
    it hurts
    when you're not around
    I think its sad to say that I miss you
    and that I miss you
    and I've traded myself in for you (in for dying slowly)
    and I've traded myself in for you (one more, watch it be okay)
    the fall will tell
    of another year that I failed myself again
    to a queen of hearts
    lets take a ride, tear in through the dark
    next to fireflies and over sleepin eyes
    to a place that doesnt want a part me, part of you.
    part of you.
    I think its sad to say
    That I miss you
    and that I miss you
    and ive traded myself in for you (in for dying slowly)
    and ive traded myself in for you (one more, watch it be okay)
    11:29p
    well, i thought you'd come and go,
    i never thought you would stay.
    and i'm sorry if i tried to push you away.
    11:32p
    i miss you all the time, but i'm blocking it out.
    11:33p
    without me by your side,
    you said you were all alone
    11:55p
    Inmates- Good Life

    When you said you loved me, did you really love me or did the words just spill out like drool on my pillow. 'Cause I was naked when you said those words, but I felt covered in your whispered worship. And as you passed out fast on my shoulder, I imagined a child waiting so sad and still for his mom to arrive. Did she leave you an orphan, in that big, brown leather chair? Said, "Don't you move a muscle, kid, I'll be back in twenty years." You were scared, you were lonely, but you must've been aware. Life is a series of calluses. This is just another layer. So, build'em up, tough it out, yeah, that's your skin. Don't let anyone under there.

    When you said you needed me, did you really need me or was it just someone. Oh, you'd take anything. Am I first on that list of yours, or am I second, or third? So, who's that ahead of me, some harlot from Pittsburgh? Or Detroit, Santa Fe, or San Diego? I know you're so alone, but how much affection does one guy really need?

    Did you date a lot in high school? Were you always chasing girls? Couldn't you find some young valentine to steal your heart for good? Were you content, or contemptible? Are your memories pleasant, or is it a string of endless flings of bitter resentment? Seems that what you want and what you need doesn't mean a thing. We're just here for the taking.

    When you said you'd hurt me, did you think you hurt me? Are you really that cocky? Oh, what a heartbreaker! Well, I've got my armor. Yeah, I've been through some battles before. And I met your old girlfriend. She said, "Baby, don't bother." She told me you told her you'd hurt her. Funny, how familiar. So, how much of this relationship was rehearsed?

    Did you act out as a child? Were you always crying wolf? Attention-starved, you tried too hard to get someone to look. Now you're the wolf in second-hand clothing; I'm the sheep in a pleated skirt. It's an awkward form of payback, but if it works for you, it works. It's that I recognize your off-white lies, still, I lie beside you. And that's what really hurts.

    When you said you'd leave me...well, why haven't you left me? What are we still doing here, so desperate for company? There's a greyhound on Jackson Street. There's an airport in Council Bluffs. Hell, there's a car in the driveway, fifty ways to get lost.

    But as I hold you and listen to you sleeping, I'm starting to wonder if I really believe that you'd ever really leave. Would you leave me an orphan, in that big, brown leather chair? The one you've lugged around from town to town for all these years. It's the trophy of your childhood, like a shark's tooth or gator skin boots. But this one holds you prisoner. It holds me prisoner, too. What we need to set us free is to let go of each other, let go of everything.

    When I said I loved you, it was because I loved you. When I said I needed you, well, I really need you. Yeah, I guess you hurt me, for once you're a man of your words. Well, guess what. I'm leaving. I can't be your prisoner.

    I won't.
