I started this game a while back, but it didn't wrok out too well. I think the starting lyrics were too obscure. So. Let us try it again, shall we? (anything to avoid studying for finals)
Rules are simple. If you know what song one or more of the 10 lyrics below are from, declare it, then replace those lyrics in the list with new ones. Continue.
1. Favor headbands and cassettes, cigarettes, suffragettes, and boys
2. Past the shadows that fall down wherever we meet; pretty soon now, I won't come around
3. Will I wake up, some dream I made up, no I guess this is reality...
4. Sun shines in the bedroom when we play, the rain it always starts when you go away
5. And I think I'm scared, do I talk too much?
6. The things we did, the things we hide, oh for the record, it's between you and I
7. I drive on the streets cause she's my companion, I walk through the hills cause she knows who I am
8. The way you're bathed in light reminds me of that night God laid me down into your rose garden of trust....
9. Everything gone white, everything's grey, now you're here, now you're away
10. You may be from Venus, but I'm definitely not from Mars

Regardless of what I call shitty, I don't spam up threads with my complete inability to spell, punctuate, or use grammar. And I know you've been asked this before, but, if you don't like Our Lady Peace, why the hell are you here anyway?
