I confide to anything [I can vow [vibe] to anything]
So I have to hide from everything.
Everybody wants a piece of me.
You see origin and cease to be.
Sit back and let it happen,
Let us take your time away.
I don't understand you.
I don't want your time of day.
If you're gonna walk, might as well walk your way,
Always up the hallways,
Forget the punk, I pack the funk.
I'm gonna take a piece of you.
Making money for good health, but first I learn to see myself (x2)
You've promised me poems (x3)

(Terry Hall)
I rue the day that I ever met you,
And deeply regret you getting close to me.
I cannot wait to deeply neglect you,
Deeply forget you, Jesus believe me,
You promised me poems.
You might have been my reason for livin'
I gave up on givin', gave up everything.
We were a right pair of believers
A couple of dreamers, so how come
You hate me?
You promised me poems (x4).

(Martina)
Dreamed of ringing voices, [Note: a possible allusion to Zora Neale
Huston's Their Eyes Were Watching God]
And contemplated choices.
Taste like a fresh kiss,
To heighten my awareness.
With all fairness, greatness, with gratitude.
And simply rhymes with attitude
Now do promotion and TV, and ya still can't see. We
Down the hill cascade
And keep away the masquerade,
Dreamed of ringing voices,
And you promised me poems (x4).

Tricky poems

Do you know what it's like when
You're scared to see yourself?
Do you know what it's like when
You wish you were someone else
Who didn't need your help to get by?

Do you know what it's like
To wanna surrender?

I don't wanna feel like this tomorrow
I don't wanna live like this today
Make me feel better, I wanna feel better
Stay with me here now and never surrender
Never surrender

Do you know what it's like when
You're not who you wanna be?
Do you know what it's like to
Be your own worst enemy
Who sees the things in me I can't hide?

Do you know what it's like
To wanna surrender?
...she isn't real. I can't make her real... (In truth, the tru-tru, I'm a chronically-bored compulsive liar who enjoys role playing 8))

Built to Spill : Virginia Reel Around the Fountain ( wait for it, after you hear it )

DM : Barrel of a Gun ( obvious )

REM: Uberlin ( catch the line about change, on days you know you are better)
consciousness started to flash,

here, it seems, flooding in play

even the corners of mind

where it’s always bright as day.

Nine Inch Nails - Eraser

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x71q_cU0g4o

I guess because my past relationships with women have fit the lyrics quite nicely. Not in a destructive or manipulative way but I think the contrast between words shows a person in despair, at their end tether, wanting a way out. I chose to leave my wife 3 months ago so I guess this is an appropriate song as it is how I feel or more so, how she feels about me. A 3 year marriage gone....argh.

Goodbye in her eyes by the Zac Brown Band

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p5Rlgu4L9J4

This song is at number 1 on the country music charts as of this week. They play it like crazy. She listens to country music like me. If I would have only known what was wrong with her I would not have handled things the way I did. I hope this song isn't a trigger for her.

The last time we were together as a couple (I already knew she cheated a few days before) we were shopping at the salvation army store where I noticed a hide a bed. I said hey I like that why don't you see what you can get it for. She negotiated it for 30.00 for me. That was what I was going to sleep on.

We loaded it in the truck and headed for home when that song came on the radio. I looked at her and said god I love this song and cranked it up full blast. As she was listening an awful bewildered look came across her face. This song was playing and there was a new bed in the back of the truck. She was starting to understand that I knew her secret.
Love wasn't put in your heart to stay
Love isn't love until you give it away
The only way out of the pain is through the pain
When I was young, I admired clever people
Now that I am old, I admire kind people

Not exactly "my" songs in the sense that they are not necessarily my favourite songs, but I can see a lot of BPD tendencies in them.

Fireflight - Stay Close

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=55hSKmnqYyw

I want to know you
There's so much at stake
Can't face the memories
They bend me till I break
Hiding from the past
But it's eating me alive
Can't block it out
When it's coming from inside
Every turn leads me to a new dead end
Lost again, I'm screaming your name

Chorus:

Come close, come close
And call my name
How can you turn your back on me
When you know my pain
Stay close, stay close
Light up the night
Save me from the part of me
That's begging to die

Precious denial, a stone to break my back
The chains I carry won't cut me any slack
Imprisoned by fear with no room for my heart
My only hope, only you can heal the scars
Every turn leads me to a new dead end
Lost again, I'm screaming your name

-Chorus-

Stay by my side
If you leave me I will die
Stay by my side
If you leave me I will die
Stay by my side
If you hold me I will fly
If you hold me I will fly
Will you hold me

-Chorus-



Flyleaf - Missing

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cghipaousJo

Lyrics in the video.

especially the chorus:

Something's missing in me
I felt it deep within me
as lovers left me to bleed alone


There are probably a lot more though. But I recently stumbled across these two on my MP3-player while playing songs at random.

Placebo - Without You I´m Nothing

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YIRz7zaKGLY

Strange infatuation seems to grace the evening tide
I'll take it by your side.
Such imagination seems to help the feeling slide
I'll take it by your side.
Instant correlation sucks and breeds a pack of lies
I'll take it by your side
Oversaturation curls the skin and tans the hide
I'll take it by your side

tick - tock [x3]
tick - tick - tick - tick - tick - tock

I'm unclean, a libertine
And every time you vent your spleen
I seem to lose the power of speech
You´re slipping slowly from my reach
You grow me like an evergreen
You never see the lonely me at all

I
Take the plan, spin it sideways
I
Fall
Without you, I'm Nothing
Without you, I'm nothing
Without you, I'm nothing
Take the plan, spin it sideways
Without you, I'm nothing at all


MANY Placebo songs in general. Also many Flyleaf songs.
