3. Was It Something I Said? - Brandon Flowers
4. Blindsided - Bon Iver
5. You’re A Cad - The Bird & The Bee

Overload - Sugababes

Train comes, I don’t know its destination,

It’s a one-way ticket to a madman’s situation.

A Beautiful Mess - Jason Mraz

It kind of hurts when the kind of words you write,

Kind of turn themselves into knives.

Dawn of the Dead - Does It Offend You, Yeah?

Today I stood and walked away,

I’m never coming back this way.

For Emma - Bon Iver

I toured the light, so many foreign roads,

For Emma, forever ago.

Hiding Place - Aushua

My hands are tied but they won’t stay,

‘Cause I’ll chew on all the ropes as if they were sugarcane.

Summerboy - Lady Gaga

Don’t be sad when the sun goes down,

You’ll wake up and I’m not around.

The City - Patrick Wolf

Won’t let the city destroy our love,

Won’t let no mistake take the roof from off our heads.

Broken Bones - The Holidays

I’m nothing more than a bag of bones,

With a pair of shoes and an overcoat.
