5 When You Were Young (Sam’s Town, 2006)
Listen to when: You’re convincing a lady pal that it’s okay to be imperfect.

That it’s all right to not meet expectations and even to sin from time to time

Killer line:
"They say the devil's water, it ain’t so sweet. You don’t have to drink right now but you can dip your feet every once and a little while”

6 For Reasons Unknown (Sam’s Town, 2006)

Listen to when: This time, it’s you breaking it off with a girlfriend, because you just feel like it. To which we must say, “Ang pogi mo p’re!”

Killer line:
“My heart, it don't beat, it don't beat the way it used to. And my eyes, don't recognize you no more. And my lips, they don't kiss, they don't kiss the way they used to. And my eyes don't recognize you no more for reasons unknown”

7 Shadowplay (Sawdust, 2007)
Listen to when: You need to listen to a rehashed Joy Division song because you’ve gotten tired of “Love Will Tear Us Apart;” or you’ve watched the late Joy Div vocalist Ian Curtis’ biopic, Control, for the 66th time.

Killer line:
“In the shadowplay acting out your own death, knowing no more as the assassins all grouped in four lines, dancing on the floor”

8 Bones (Sam’s Town, 2006)
Listen to when: Trying to get back with an ex girlfriend, but you just keep getting rejected

Killer line:
“Don’t you wanna come with me? Don’t you wanna feel my bones on your bones? It’s only natural”

9 Tranquilize (Sawdust, 2007)
Listen to when: Wanting to achieve that “inner peace,” or simply dreaming of a videoke duet with Lou Reed

Killer lines:
“Close call, was it love or was it just easy?” and “Sometimes I’m travel man, but tonight this engine's failing”

10 Human (Day & Age, 2008)
Listen to when: Unleashing your wild side on the dance floor, your mind free from fear of doing things wrong (i.e., committing grammatical errors)

Killer line:
“I’m on my knees looking for the answer: Are we human, or are we dancer?”

11 A White Demon Love Song (New Moon OST, 2009)
Listen to when: You want to feign interest in New Moon to impress the missus

Killer line:
He isn’t coming after love this time, she likes the way she sings. White demon love song’s in her dreams
