everytime anyone mentions sad songs i always think in the back of my head
that there are all these songs that arent getting mentioned. so im going
to try my best to pull the saddest song lyrics out of my ass. 

"Five guitars, a constellation without stars
If the symmetry's uneven, how can we see straight?
Oh listen to the words you can't say
There's a shadow that cloaks every sound
What is it about my birthday?
Everything gets turned around
Listen to the music your heart plays
Record it, and write it down
Everything is seen at least two ways:
>From the clouds and from underground"

--"five guitars" by kleenex girl wonder


"when i was seven my father said to me but you cant swim...
 and i never dreamed... of the sea again"
-- "bathysphere" by smog

"on the day that i forget you.. i hope my heart explodes"
-- "twin human highway flares" by the mountain goats

the entire song "goin nowhere fast" by beck (off freshmeat and old slabs,
not the banjo story version) is sad as hell

most of the stuff by geoff farina
today or tomorrow by karate

"people tell me its a sin
to know and feel to much within
i still believe she was my twin
but i lost the ring
she was born in spring
but i .. was born TOO LATE
blame it on a simple twist of fate"

-- simple twist of fate by bob dylan

eh.. thats all i can think of right now. oh wait
