    I'll provide the lyrics, they're not that long. Both beautiful songs though filled with that sense of uneasiness. They're short songs, give a listen, wonderful bands.

    "Elizabeth on the Bathroom Floor"

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eS2ipWNm9Fw

    Laying on the bathroom floor

    Kitty licks my cheek once more

    And i could try

    But waking up is harder when you wanna die

    Walter's on the telephone

    Tell him i am not at home

    'cause i think that i am going

    To a place where i am always high

    My name's elizabeth

    My life is **** and piss

    John Butler Trio

    "Caroline"

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZgeoUzi91P

    Got your eyes open, but you cannot see

    Got what you want, do you got what you need?

    'Till one day you see something you cannot bear

    Telling you girl, yes you better beware

    Her papa loved her so much you could see

    Loved her too much if you know what I mean

    So, she left home young,

    Yeah she moved town to town

    Looking for love that she never found

    She played it hard and yes she played it rough

    Made her feel safe and it made her feel tough

    And rock by rock she built those walls everyday

    Built herself a tower so far away

    And from up high in that castle

    She knew no one could get too close to touch

    And if life and death were such a game

    Why did they all make such a fuss?

    And if birds could fly high over their troubles

    She gonna find some of her own wings and fly

    And no one could convince or pay her double

    Or tell her she was too young to die

    Oh Caroline, Caroline
