Pete Wentz and poetry.

[mayqueen517]

OR:

The "Be Pete Wentz" Poetry Meme works thusly:

1. Put your music player of choice on shuffle.
2. The first lines of twenty songs = a poem; the first line of the twenty-first song is the title.

For bonus points, see how many sources you recognize!




Title: A daydream spills from my corked head

Load the car and write the note
Blue jean baby, L.A. lady, seamstress for the band
Soft light, total silence
You’re a canary, I’m a coal mine (I've got all this ringing in my ears, and none on my fingers - Fall Out Boy)
When I met you, you were on your back (Beware, Cougar! - The Academy Is...)

Dear, you left too soon
Got the news today, doctors said i had to stay (A Little Bit Longer - Jonas Brothers)
We both know that I shouldn't be here
It’s true that I’m a silver shadow
You were the only face I'd ever known (Everything We Had - The Academy Is...)

I know that you're an artist,
You say yes, I say no
Loving you like i never have before
I'm waiting for you right outside
We've got one chance to break out

This won't hurt more than a pinch. (One Day, Robots Will Cry - Cobra Starship)
I saw the light on the night that I passed by her window (Delilah - Tom Jones--Flogging Molly cover)
This lonely existence may use the way
Are we growing up or just going down? (Sophomore Slump or Comeback of the Year - Fall Out Boy)
Baby, seasons change but people don't(The Take Over, The Break's Over - Fall Out Boy)

I can't guess any of the source material HOWEVER this was just what I needed to procrastinate finishing my homework!

Lol this is especially Pete Wentz since I recognize many of his lyrics. But I am *so bad* at attributing songs for Fall Out Boy, like ridiculously bad. So:
When I met you, you were on your back is TAI, and since it's the first line and not the last... Either Beware, Cougar! or the other one... Maybe Paper Chase?
You were the only face I'd ever known is again the wonderful William Beckett; this one I am more sure about. Everything We Had? I love that song so much.
And I think I know a couple more but I'm not sure. Still, it makes a lovely poem.

Beware, Cougar! and Everything We had, bang on the nose! ♥

I win identifying TAI songs? Seriously though, does everyone have trouble identifying FOB songs, or am I just bad at it? Either way. I love these memes because I'm so fond of lyrics, especially from bandom bands.

Ahahahaa, sometimes I can pick out a FOB lyric. It just depends, usually.

The first one I recognized was "A Little Bit Longer". lol @ my life.

Wow, you're good at that!

[mayqueen517.livejournal.com]

Yes!! \o/

Also, double \o/ \o/ because it IS Delilah! (I've got the Flogging Molly version which is LOLarious, but I love pretty much all versions of that song)
