"Lyrical Montage"

This is for me, not you.

-I laugh at all your jokes, but you look bored. I've been a lot of things-but never yours. -Tracy Chapman

-When I looked for you, I almost passed you by, you were so cool and calm I thought my friends had lied. I thought so much reserve must make you wild inside, it was there and then that I knew-had to get me some of what you got. -TC

-Difficult not to feel a little bit disappointed, and passed over.- APC

-I fell too fast, I feel too much, I thought that you might have some advice to give, on how to be insensitive. -Jann Arden

-And now I see, all the shit that isn't me, I'm too relieved to be mad, relieved and sad. I misplaced my mind, thought it was lost, and now I find-you were just very, very unkind. -Minnie Driver

-Oh, what a cold and common old way to go. When I was feeding on the need for you to know me, devastated at the rate you fell below me, what wasted unconditional love, on somebody who doesn't believe in the stuff, oh well. -Fiona Apple

-You think you are complicated, a deep mystery to all. Well it's taken me awhile to see, you're not so special- all energy no meaning, with a lot of words. So paper thin, not one real feeling could knock you down....So, see you when you're 40, lost and all alone, being comforted by strangers you'll never need to know, not sad because you lost me, sad because you thought it was cool to be sad- You think misery will make you stand apart from the crowd. If you'dve walked past me today- I wouldnt've picked you out. -Dido

-We said goodbye before hello. -Michael Penn

-She made up some excuse to see you, said you didn't feel a thing, tired of all the dramas maybe? -Aimee Mann

-God, who would wanna be such an asshole? Who would wanna be such a control freak?-Modest Mouse
