...no, can't get it...

Next two lines:

Nothing makes me lonelier than a phone call to you
You're waiting for nothing to be nowhere soon

...sorry Wald, can't even get it with a Google® search....

Song was out in 1984. Here's the next four lines:

Tomorrow you'll pick up the paper like you do,
you turn to the Sports Page, the Financial News
What escapes your attention is easily read
You look like you think you'd be better off dead

Note: The lyrics are on a web page, but the person who put them down has them incorrect. You CAN find this on Google, but you need to do a sophisticated search (and no, I didn't pick this song because I knew this would happen. I guess this track is more obscure than I realized, though KROQ played it and Fred on XM plays this tune quite a bit these days. It shows up on the Fred Essentials countdown every year)

You're always falling apart . . .

It was just too easy to break your heart, just too easy to break your heart, just too easy to break your heart

Googling reveals the answer is "Just Too Easy" by Romeo Void.

"Diamonds make you happy for a while,
But my love is true, won't go out of style."

Concrete Blonde "Happy Birthday"

"You've been around all night
And that's a little long
You think you've got the right
But I think you've got it wrong
Why can't you say goodnight
So you can take me home"

"Dancing Barefoot" -Patti Smith Grroup (had to cheat)

Once I was young
Once I was smart
Now I'm living on the edge of my nerves
The things we said weren't quite so tough
When we were you

Well I'm burning, I'm burning buildings
I'm building this time
