I often find it impossible not to listen to music while I'm sitting at the PC. Here's some lyrics from (English) music that suits my everchanging moods-

--The Dresden Dolls- 'Girl Anachronism'--

"I am not so serious...
This passion is a plagiarism
I might join your century,
But only on a rare occasion..."

" But! I might be catching, so don't touch-
You'll start believing you're immune to gravity and stuff."

"Behold the world's worst accident
I AM THE GIRL ANACHRONISM."

=Angsty, ironic, weird mood.


--Evanescence- 'Away from Me'--

"Lie to me, convince me that I've been sick for ever...and all of this will make sense when I am better..."

=Sad, confused


--Switchfoot- 'Gone'--

"Life is a day that doesn't last for long."

"We are not infinite,
We are not permanant,
Nothing's immediate,
We're so confident,
In our accomplishments.
Look at how dark it is...
...Gone."


=Good mood, having fun generally, easy-going.

--Jem- 'Just A Ride'--

"Truth, we don't wanna hear,
It's too much to take.
Don't like to feel out of control,
So we make our plans.
Ten times a day.
And when they don't go
Our way we...

Breakdown.
Don't you breakdown.
No need to breakdown.
No need at all,
Because...

It's [life] just a ride..."

=Quiet, calm, easy-going.


--Elliot Smith- 'Miss Misery'--

"I don't have you with me,
But I keep a good attitude.
Do you miss me, Miss Misery?
Like you say you do."
-
"Next door the T.V.'s flashing,
Blue frames on the wall.
It's a comedy of errors you see,
It's about taking a fall.

To vanish into oblivion,
It's easy to do,
And I tried to leave but you know me,
I come back when you want me to.

Do you miss me, Miss Misery?
Like you say you do..."

= Moody, depressed, contemplative


--R.E.M- 'Imitation of Life'--

"Charades, pop skill,
Water hyacinth, named by a poet.
Imitation of life.
Like a koi in a frozen pond.
Like a goldfish in a bowl.
I don’t want to hear you cry."

"This sugarcane,
This lemonade,
This hurricane, I’m not afraid.
C’mon c’mon no one can see me cry.
This lightning storm,
This tidal wave,
This avalanche, I’m not afraid.
C’mon c’mon no one can see me cry."

=Thinking, calm.


-Catherine.
