First lines memething

[kiya]

For lack of anything better to do, here's a first songlines thing. Everyone else is doing 32 in a row, but I got distracted by a shiny object (and releasing the Wrath of Sarge) so I just did 22, skipping instrumentals, which I was getting a lot of.

So, on to the game.


1) Laudate, omnes gentes, laudate / Magnificat in saecula oneironaut
2) Before this dance is through / I think I'll love you too elizabif
3) In every life / It has been said / There comes a time to join the dead
4) I wasn't looking for a lover / I wasn't looking for a friend rosefox
5) Mr. Kokosko, it just happened again / Sad, so sad alsafi
6) We pretend to be afraid / Underneath our twilight whispercricket
7) When all that's left to do is / Reflect on what's been done elizabif
8) Find yourself in the gutter in a lonely part of town
9) [ ... ] her harlequin hovers nearby / Awaiting a word elizabif
10) Can you feel the breath of the observer / Can you hear the quanta calling back? tiger_spot
11) Forty-four's no age to start again / But the bulls were getting tough and he was never free of pain sigerson
12) Now I will tell you what I've done for you / Fifty thousand tears I've cried oneironaut, whispercricket, meranthi
13) When the ship runs out of ocean / And the vessel runs aground sigerson
14) Ready / Darkness cover me / I'm not ready to die, girl
15) I used to live in New York City / Everything there was dark and dirty
16) Even on the darkest night when empty promise means empty hand
17) I came home one August evening / Stepped out of my back door / And noticed a big peach tree / I'd never seen before
18) I wanted to be with you alone / And talk about the weather sigerson
19) All alone, staring on / Watching her life go by
20) You read about Samson / you read about his birth redbird, technicality
21) It's getting near dawn / When lights close their tired eyes elizabif
22) I'm dancing in the shadows of life / and death is all around me tonight
