Well, that just gave me flashbacks to my emo poetry days

Music meme stolen from wihluta. Because it looked awesome.

Put your MP3 player on shuffle, and write down the first line of the first twenty songs. Post the poem that results. The first line of the twenty-first is the title.

And I Want My Pain Back

Don't ask me
I feel like a song without the words
I hate the world today
Maybe that it would do me good if I believed there were a God
I think I'm drowning, asphyxiated

Do you breathe the name of your saviour
Memories are just where you laid them
Welcome to the planet
I can't escape this hell
Love is gone

Now maybe it's not that I just don't care any more
Many's the time I ran with you
Feeling so strange and seeing you clearly now
There's a cold fire
They whisper words into my ears

Semi-recluse
He left no time to regret
I'm tired of being what you want me to be
And even though the moment passed me by
I cannot dare to look
