Please guess the song and artist from the lyrics. 

No internet usage please.

I'm hoping that we may get different generations join in.

If no-one gets it, then just post a new one.

You're watching yourself but you're too unfair

You got your head all tangled up but if i could only

Make you care

No matter what or who you've been

No matter when or where you've seen

All the knives seem to lacerate your brain

I've had my share, I'll help you with the pain

You're not alone

Parents
  • It's cold outside
    And the paint's peeling off of my walls
    There's a man outside
    In a long coat, grey hat, smoking a cigarette
    Now the light fades out
    And I wonder what I'm doing in a room like this
    There's a knock on the door
    And just for a second I thought I remembered you
    So now I'm alone
    Now I can think for myself
    About little deals and S.U's
    And things that I just don't understand
    Like a white lie that night
    Or a sly touch at times
    I don't think it meant anything to you
    So I open the door
    It's the 'friend' that I'd left in the hallway
    'Please sit down'
    A candlelit shadow on a wall near the bed
