DPP: Don't Forget The Lyrics

[kl-shipper1.livejournal.com]

It's Wednesday, it's time for a game! So, for today, I'm bringing back a game that some of you might have played a couple years back with taragel-- Name That Tune (Don't Forget The Lyrics, in this case).

So here's the deal: I put my music player on shuffle and I'm going to post a whole bunch of lyrics that remind me of pilots from the songs that came up below. Your job is to guess the name and artist of the song, which will be 1 point for you. Bonus point if you post the next line to the song. At the end, I'll tally up the scores, and I think there will be a prize to be won here...


Additional lyrics will be added throughout the day. If you have some lyrics to add to the list, PM me with the lyrics, song title, artist, & the next line and I'll add them-- of course, don't answer them once I put them up.

Without further ado, here are some lyrics:

1. You loved me because I’m fragile/When I thought that I was strong/But you touch me for a little while/And all my fragile strength is gone… Gravity by Sara Bareilles

2. I really don’t mind what happens now and then/As long as you’ll be my friend at the end… Kryptonite by 3 Doors Down

3. You’re hiding regret in your smile/There’s a storm in your eyes I’ve seen coming for a while… Lie by David Cook

4. I was alone in the dark and the fear was my truth/Yeah, all the things that you are/Beautifully broken, alive in my heart…

5. We’ve got our backs against the ocean/It’s just us against the world…

6. Don’t walk away/Don’t say goodbye/Don’t leave me here, no not tonight/Don’t walk away like any other time…

7. But I loved you/And I lost you/And I will never be the same…

8. Why are the things that I want to say/Just aren’t coming out right?/I’m tripping on words/You got my head spinning…

9. She said ‘I don’t know if I’ve ever been good enough’/I’m little bit rusty, and I think my head is caving in/And I don’t know if I’ve been really loved by a hand that’s touched me… Push by Matchbox Twenty

10. I could watch as you fade away, but I hold on to the pain/In these arms that just let you go/On these lips that said your name/Couldn’t know it would hurt this hard to hear you close that door…

11. Have you ever looked fear in the face/And said ‘I just don’t care’?... Glitter in the Air by Pink

12. You just stand there/I could say so much/But I don’t go there ‘cause I don’t want to… Back 2 Good by Matchbox Twenty

13. It was easier to kiss you/Than to tell you how I feel…

14. The world is coming down around me/And I can’t find a reason to be loved/I never want to leave you/But I can’t make you bleed if I’m alone… Arms by Christina Perri

15. You’re the only one I’ve ever believed in/The answer that could never be found… Let Love In by The Goo Goo Dolls

16. Nobody said it was easy/It’s such a shame for us to part/Nobody said it was easy/No one ever said it would be this hard… The Scientist by Coldplay

17. I’m falling apart/I’m barely breathing/With a broken heart/That’s still beating… Broken by Lifehouse

18. But I’m the only one/Who’ll walk across the fire for you/And I’m the only one/Who’ll drown in my desire for you/It’s only fear that makes you run… I’m the Only One by Melissa Etheridge

19. I’m as free as a bird now/This bird you can’t chain/This bird you can’t change… (hint: I was listening to the cover, not the original) Freebird cover by Katee Sackhoff, original by Lynyrd Skynyrd

20. I keep your photograph; I know it serves me well/I wanna hold you high and steal your pain… Broken by Seether ft. Amy Lee

21. I've got some imperfections/But how can you collect them all/And throw them in my face?...

22. Well, I'm not paralyzed/But I seem to be struck by you/I want to make you move/Because you're standing still... Paralyzer by Finger Eleven

23. I always knew that you'd come back to get me/And you always knew that it wouldn't be easy/To go back to the start to see where it all began/Or end up at the bottom to watch how it all ends...

24. I know you'll come back someday/On a bed of nails, I'll wait/I'm praying that you don't burn out/Or fade away... Somewhere Out There by Our Lady Peace

25. No more tears, but the memories will live on, yeah/All the smiles last for miles/And I'll see you even after you're gone...

26. I know that I've got issues/But you're pretty messed up too/Either way, I found out I'm nothing without you... My Life Would Suck Without You by Kelly Clarkson

27. But nothing cures the hurt you, you bring on yourself/Just remembering, just remembering how we were/And we will only need each other/We'll bleed together... The Special Two by Missy Higgins

28. So I wear you out/So who would've thought that you'd still be here now...

29. I know I left too much mess and destruction to come back again/And I caused nothing but trouble/I understand if you can't talk to me again... White Flag by Dido

30. We crash and we roll/You surround me, pull me, drown me, then swallow me whole... Run by Matt Nathanson & Jennifer Nettles

31. But I can't find enough of anything/To drown out what you said/And sometimes I find I catch myself/Letting you back in... Sad Songs by Matt Nathanson

Guess away!

#2 is Kryptonite by 3 Doors Down. "If I go crazy then, will you still be my superman"

My mother's favorite karaoke song. :)

[kl-shipper1.livejournal.com]

Yes, on the song title & artist, but that next line is not quite right.

[word-vomity.livejournal.com]

and #29 is White Flag by Dido...wonderful pilots song. *sigh*

'and if you live by the rules of it's over then I'm sure that that makes sense.'

[kl-shipper1.livejournal.com]

Yes, yes, and yes! Bonus points for you!

[word-vomity.livejournal.com]

#27 is The Special Two by Missy Higgins which was my absolute FAVORITE SONG EVER for about 3 months awhile back.

'our arms will not be taught to hold another cuz we're the special two'

OK i'm really gonna go work now. :)

[kl-shipper1.livejournal.com]

Yes again! And stay and play with us-- doesn't work know that pilots shipping is priority one? *wink*

[n-e-star.livejournal.com]

#18 - "The demons that you're hiding from." - The Only One by um... some lady.

[kl-shipper1.livejournal.com]

1 point for the next line! (Hint: the name is in those lyrics I posted)

[kl-shipper1.livejournal.com]

You get the points for song name & artist, then!

[rdave1.livejournal.com]

#17 is Broken by Lifehouse

In the pain there is healing, in your name I find meaning
so I'm holdin' on, i'm holdin' on, I'm holdin' on I'm barely holdin' on to you

[kl-shipper1.livejournal.com]

YES on all counts! 2 points for you!

[kl-shipper1.livejournal.com]

I will give it to you-- the cover I was listening to was Katee Sackhoff's version, and I think she does change a few lyrics so that would explain the slight variation.

She's actually a really good singer. I'm going to post a link to the video in a second, so if you want to listen to it, the link will be where the lyrics used to be.

[word-vomity.livejournal.com]

#16 Coldplay ummm the Scientist I think. I hope. Crap.

"We're going back to the start"

#19 Freebird. I know that was Lynryd Skynrd originally but for the cover, I'm not sure. Was it a Judd?

for the next line...brain melting guitar solo? :)

[kl-shipper1.livejournal.com]

Yes for #16 (except the next line is the slightest bit off again). letterstonorah already got #19-- the cover I was listening to was Katee Sackhoff's.

[word-vomity.livejournal.com]

#26 is bothering the crap outta me. I know that song! Grrr.

[callmeonetrack.livejournal.com]

I answered that one below! Kelly! My life would suck without you!

[callmeonetrack.livejournal.com]

You’re hiding regret in your smile/There’s a storm in your eyes I’ve seen coming for a while…

LIE BY DAVID COOK

I know that I've got issues/But you're pretty messed up too/Either way, I found out I'm nothing without you...

MY LIFE WOULD SUCK WITHOUT YOU BY KELLY CLARKSON

We crash and we roll/You surround me, pull me, drown me, then swallow me whole..

RUN BY MATT NATHANSON AND JENNIFER NETTLES

[kl-shipper1.livejournal.com]

Yes to all three! Do you know the next lines?

[rdave1.livejournal.com]

#15 is Let Love In By Goo Goo Dolls

The moment you decided to let love in, Now I'm banging on the door of an angel

[kl-shipper1.livejournal.com]

Yes!

[marce-w.livejournal.com]

#20 Broken by Seether and Amy Lee - "Cause I'm broken when I’m open
And I dont feel like I am strong enough"

#22 Paralyzer by Finger Eleven - "If your body matches what your eyes can do
You'll probably move right through me on my way to you"

#24 Gravity - Our Lady Peace - "And all we are
Is all so far"

[kl-shipper1.livejournal.com]

Yes to #20 and #22, #24 is Our Lady Peace, but the song is not called "Gravity" (you have the next line right, though).

[rayruz.livejournal.com]

11... Glitter in the Air by Pink
"It's only half past the point of no return"

[kl-shipper1.livejournal.com]

It is!

[pennyante.livejournal.com]

#12 is Matchbox20, "Back 2 Good": "I was thinkin' if you were lonely/ Maybe we could leave here and no one would know / At least not to the point we would thinks so..." God, that song feels so much like freshman year of high school, I'm like, ready to put on my gym uniform. Love it!

And #14 is Christina Perri, "Arms"--I'm just gonna guess that the next lyrics are the bridge into the chorus? "You put your arms around me and / I believe that it's easier for you to let me go..." That one's on my BSG playlist, too!

[kl-shipper1.livejournal.com]

Both are correct! I wasn't sure anyone was going to get Arms, and that's such a pilots song to me.

[rdave1.livejournal.com]

#31 is Sad Song by Matt Nathanson

And I'm so tired of singing all these sad songs in my head

[kl-shipper1.livejournal.com]

I'll take it! +2 for you!

[pressdbtwnpages.livejournal.com]

#9 is "Push" by Matchbox20. Who I'd never really thought of in terms of pilots, but, hmm...

[kl-shipper1.livejournal.com]

Yes, it is. And I hadn't thought of it that way either until it came up while I was looking for songs, and something about it reminded me of pilots.

[justascrewup2.livejournal.com]

#1 is Gravity by Sara Bareilles

Lovely song and *so* pilots. May have some lyrics. Will send them along if I can find them.

[kl-shipper1.livejournal.com]

Yes! That song just screams pilots to me-- I'm always surprised there's no fanvid to it yet.
