There's a handful of songs that I feel resonate, but the one that is the strongest is "World At Large" by Modest Mouse.

"in this life that we call home, the years go fast and the days go so slow"

"Hey Jupiter" by Tori Amos is a song that expresses so much I have never been able to say.

No one's picking up the phone
Guess it's me and me
And this little masochist
She's ready to confess
All the things that i never thought
That she could feel and

Hey Jupiter
Nothings been the same
So are you gay
Are you blue
Thought we both could use a friend to run to
And I thought you'd see with me
You wouldn't have to be something new

Hey Jupiter
Nothings been the same
So are you gay
Are you blue
Thought we both could use a friend to run to
And I thought I wouldn't have to keep
With you
Hiding

Thought I knew myself so well
All the dolls I had
Took my leather off the shelf
Your apocalypse was fab
For a girl who couldn't choose between
The shower or the bath

And I thought I wouldn't have to be
With you
A magazine

No one's picking up the phone
Guess it's clear he's gone
And this little masochist
Is lifting up her dress
Guess I thought I could never feel
The things I feel

This and that, they must be the same
What is legal is just what's real
What I'm given to understand
Is exactly what I steal
I wormed my way into the heart of the crowd
I wormed my way into the heart of the crowd
I was shocked to find what was allowed
I didn't lose myself in the crowd

Shot by both sides
On the run to the outside of everything
Shot by both sides
They must have come to a secret understanding

New offences always in my nerves
They're taking my time by force
They all sound the same when they scream
They have to rewrite all the books again
As a matter of course

I wormed my way ...
Shot by both sides ...

'Why are you so edgy, Kid ?'
Asks the man with the voice
One thing follows another
You live and learn, you have no choice

I wormed my way ...
Shot by both sides
I don't ask who's doing the shooting
Shot by both sides
We must have come to a secret understanding

We must have come to a secret understanding


The group also had a song "Definitive Gaze"

A lot of stuff by The Thyme Machine.

Crossword

My girlfriend wants to go to bed with me
But I don't want to go to bed with her
I'm up all night, drinking tea
All I want to do is finish my crossword
Finish my crossword, finish my crossword

The Twilight Zone

...
When you feel like your life's a drag
Why don't you hang out with your mum and dad
Switch all the lights off and board the phone
Put in a taping of the Twilight Zone

Star Wars

I want to go to the party,
Its not the christmas party,
Its a party where everyone dresses like someone from Star Wars.

I want to go to the disco,
Its not the indie disco,
Its the disco where every song is a song about Star Wars.

I want to go to to the book shop,
Its not the second hand book shop,
Its the book shop where every book is a book about Star Wars.

We can dress up like someone from Star Wars,
We can dance to music from Star Wars,
We can read some books about STar Wars,
All we want to do is Star Wars!

I want to go to the party,
Its not the Tupperware Party,
Its the party where everyone dresses up like someone from Star Wars.

Don't know if anybody mentioned these

Rubbish taste in music for higher beings I must say.


Bob Dylan has undiagnosed Asperger's

I'm glad to see that somebody mentioned "How Soon is Now?" by the Smiths, in the OP no less.

"I am the son and the heir
of a shyness that is criminally vulgar."

"You shut your mouth,
How can you say I go about things the wrong way?
I am human and I need to be loved,
Just like everybody else does."

"There's a club if you'd like to go.
You could meet somebody who really loves you.
So you go and you stand on your own,
and you leave on your own,
and you go home, and you cry and you want to die."

I can relate.
