Get inside their heads, love their loves

i like it when people write songs where the line follows on so uses a word twice for two different sentences.

Here are two examples; Green Gloves by The National:

"Falling out of touch with all my
friends are somewhere getting wasted,
hope they're staying glued together,
I have arms for them"

And Soco Amaretto Lime by Brand New:

"i'm gonna stay eighteen forever
So we can stay like this forever
And we'll never miss a party
cause we keep them going constantly
And we'll never have to listen
to anyone about anything
cause it's all been done and it's all been said
we're the coolest kids and we take what we can get

The hell out of this town
Find some conversation
The low fuel lights been on for days
It doesn't mean anything
I've got another 500, 'nother 500 miles
before we shut this engine down,
we shut it down"

I love both of those songs.
