Ahh; Punchline - I stumbled across this gem by complete accident. I went to an MC Lars concert and these were one of the supporting bands - hadn't heard of them before that, thought that they were 'okayish' and decided to buy the album, listened to it at home and then got hooked!
They're your typical American pop-punky band with some very funny songs (see Green Light) and some very sad songs (See Coldest of Calenders) - I only have two albums so far: 37 Everywhere (which is a concept that will be familiar to Lost viewers - but about 37 being the number that, if you bother to look out for it, you'll see it everywhere around you) and Action. There are a lot of lyrics below (including the whole of Caller 10) but nobody is online tonight and I'm too awake to sleep and don't have anywhere else to go right now so I'm going to have a lyric night - Punchline is just the first band in it.
The Getaway / For The Second Time / Caller 10 (from the album '37 Everywhere')
Battlescars / Coldest of Calenders (from the album 'Action')

"You and me and this decision
It's more than just a headache
Why ruin today?
Don't bring it up
It's just something we gotta deal with
We all saw it coming
For now let's just pretend to be the best attempt at best friends"
The Getaway
It's all been said before
But this is my own outlook and my own curse
For The Second Time
With the jobs I've taken
The bones that I've broken
Seems nothing's the way that it used to be
And now it's over
I guess that I'm older
The proof is on paper in front of me
Write it down
Sound it out
Make it loud
And this time make it count
Battlescars (and that bit reminds me a lot of Hale!)
The coldest part is the heart that we share
Is breaking apart and you're not even here
Coldest of Calenders
[With the song below I'm going to type the whole thing - but only because it's a great 'story song' and just putting bits and pieces wouldn't have the same effect.]
Caller 10 with the loudest cry for missing an act of fate
And you and I end up where we're not supposed to
We all have a match if we can make the connection
So when your time comes make sure you’re paying attention to it
She’s sitting on the other side
He sees her as he’s walking by
Oh no there’s a chair ahead!
And he falls down; his face is red
And she laughs and goes back to work
And for him it’s no surprise
Oh no! She lost her chance because she didn’t catch his eye
Caller 10 with the loudest cry for missing an act of fate
And you and I end up where we're not supposed to
We all have a match if we can make the connection
So when your time comes make sure you’re paying attention to it
You’ve gotta keep your eyes so open wide
Look left, turn right, look up and down, turn around
Because you never know when lost becomes found
Look left to right, look up and down, turn around
He works and she goes to class
So there’s no time to get attached
Both looking out their windows
He says “someday I’ll find you”
And the years go flying by
One day they park side by side
They have black cars both the same, down to year and make
Caller 10 with the loudest cry for missing an act of fate
And you and I end up where we're not supposed to
We all have a match if we can make the connection
You’ve got to pay attention
You’ve got to pay attention to it
You’ve gotta keep your eyes so open wide
Look left to right, look up and down, turn around
Because you never know when lost becomes found
Look left to right, look up and down, turn around
He walks away
She walks away
Inside by the deli
‘Please take a number’
A misprint presents them both with 37’s
Her cellphone rings and he says “hey, I’ve had that song in my head all day”
She runs to the front door
She looks so familiar
Scared not to answer her boyfriend that hits her
And back to a home life that doesn’t deserve her
She should have paid attention
Maybe fate can only take you so far
Keep your eyes so open wide
Look left to right, look up and down, turn around
Because you never know when lost becomes found
Look left to right, look up and down, turn around
Keep your eyes so open wide
Look left to right, look up and down, turn around
Because you never know when lost becomes found
Look left to right, look up and down, turn around
Every which way you go
