The start of "Kairos" (In The Woods) where the girl sings "Can you conquer your emotional delay", been stuck in my head for months now, words and music. If you've ever experienced this with anything, then share.
 
hmmm let's see:

type o negative - "anesthesia": the beginning of the song: "like a flash of light in an endless night, life is trapped between two black entities" and the end of the song where peter cries "i dont feel anything"

tool - "the patient": "but im still right here giving blood keeping faith"

tool - disposition: "mention something, mention anything"

porcupine tree - "waiting part I": "waiting for the day when i will crawl away"

nick cave - "we came along this road": "i left by the back door with my wife's lover's smoking gun"

moonspell - "everything invaded": "how did you get inside me?"

tindersticks - "until the morning comes": "my hands 'round your throat, if i killed you now, they would never know"

chroma key - "get back in the car": "yeah i could never leave you, but thats what im gonna do"

ben harper - "please bleed": "please bleed so i know that you are real, so i know that you can feel"

antimatter - "expire": "knowing what i should have known, im staring at the telephone"

well, here are a few that stuck with me for ages...
 
a few:

dark tranquillity - auctioned

where did i sign
did i miss the auction
where my life went under the club


katatonia - deadhouse

somehow i'll never leave this deadhouse
somehow i don't mind being gone
and if you really think you've seen me
i have to prove you that you're wrong[/]

new model army - love songs

and the other night
we put the radio on
when we ran out of things we could say
but it always plays love songs
when you're far away


new model army - these words

i stand undefeated alone in the ring
just pacing
the sweat and the blood
dried on my hands all wasted
i'm shouting "come back and fight, for i am the king"
but the lights are all out and the people are gone
we always burned brightest when no one was watching

samael - my saviour

i am immortal
i am glorious
i am supreme
i am my saviour
my saviour


depeche mode - never let me down again

we're flying high
we're watching the world
pass us by
never want to come down
never want to put my feet
back down on the ground
 
Covenant (sweden) - Bullet

"drowning in the flood of morning light
I'm only human just like you
do you hear the city waking up
I will survive and so will you
"

It's been stuck for weeks in me head and I love it. Some horrible songs get stuck in me head often too but I guess it happens to everyone. :ill:
 
Your dream world is a very scary place...

...to be trapped inside

I've been humming this since release day. I don't feel very balanced.

Another one is track called Sielunvihollinen by finnish band CMX which beginning roughly translates

"There is no useless days
and if there is
so is whole life"

That track is very close to Closer soundwise.
 
My loneliness is killing me
I must confess I still believe
When I’m not with you I lose my mind
Give me a sign
Hit me baby one more time​
 
This looks like a haunting passage too.

Bauer - Thin white line

Friday after work when driving home
I saw you passing me by at the 2nd turn left,
you were driving past.
Only caught a glimpse of your face from aside.
It didn't seem to have changed after all this time.
The years gone by.

Strange, to see that friendship
can simply end up being strangers again,
and crossing roads without noticing.
Strange, we're still connected
it's all reflected in the dreams
that we've always captured.
The thin white line that tracked us down.
 
i took a long trip and now i'm back again
to the point where i began
and everything i left behind
followed me, preceded me

i took a long trip to leave myself
to search for another me elsewhere
i haven't found anything
i just forgot what i was looking for
i did forget what i was looking for
