    Just recently, one of my friend's best friend was killed in a car crash. And while I didn't even know her name, the death has kind of affected me for some odd reason. And even more disturbingly, this song sounded really upbeat in my head, i.e. Fall Out Boy or MCR. Weird.

    "You're Dead...And I Didn't Even Know That It Was Raining"

    There is a car crash in the middle of the street
    The rain is pouring
    There's nobody underneath
    Where is the faceless one
    I didn't really know her
    Just one last time before she dies
    Can she take it all away?

    And right now
    We gone so far
    Without saying a word face to face
    Is my heart screaming
    Or what?
    We happen to be
    Nothing else
    And nothing more
    I can't really see

    It is your swan song of my sky
    Raining on the god damn parade
    That is my head
    Where did you go?
    What did ya know?
    It sucked to be you.

    Body's on the table
    In the coroner's
    Your chest is open
    The heart is out
    Now where are you?
    And I know
    What the hell is going on?
    It's fucking death right in the eyes
    And now i'm blind to see this.

    And right now
    We gone so far
    Without saying a word face to face
    Is my heart screaming
    Or what?
    We happen to be
    Nothing else
    And nothing more
    I can't really see

    It is your swan song of my sky
    Raining on the god damn parade
    That is my head
    Where did you go?
    What did ya know?
    It sucked to be you.

    And right now
    We've gone so far
    Without saying a word face to face
    And what do you have to say?
    Right now
    We've gone so far
    Without placing a word on our tongues
    And i'm the one that's here.

    It is your swan song of my sky
    Raining on the god damn parade
    That is my head
    Where did you go?
    What did you know?
    It sucked to be you now
    Where did you go?
    What did you know?
    It's the swan song baby.
    Where did you go?
    What did you know?
    Right now.

    I had a tune in my head all day and this matched it perfectly. The tune skedaddled once I finished reading, but this is still beautiful.
