The National - Pink Rabbits

I couldn't find quiet
I went out in the rain
I was just soakin' my head to unrattle my brain
Somebody said you disappeared in a crowd
I didn't understand then
I don't understand now

Am I the one you think about when you're sitting in your faintin' chair drinking pink rabbits?
Am I the one you think about when you're sitting in your faintin' chair drinking pink rabbits?

And everybody was gone
You were standin' in the street 'cause you were tryin' not to crack up
It wasn't like a rain it was more like a sea
I didn't ask for this pain it just came over me
I love a storm, but I don't love lightning
All the waters coming up so fast, that's frightening

Am I the one you think about when you're sitting in your faintin' chair drinking pink rabbits?
Am I the one you think about when you're sitting in your faintin' chair drinking pink rabbits?

And everybody was gone
I was standing in the street 'cause I was trying not to crack

I was solid gold
I was in the fight
I was coming back from what seemed like a ruin
I couldn't see you coming so far
I just turn around and there you are

I'm so surprised you want to dance with me now
I was just getting used to living life without you around
I'm so surprised you want to dance with me now
You always said I held you way too high off the ground

You didn't see me I was falling apart
I was a white girl in a crowd of white girls in the park
You didn't see me I was falling apart
I was a television version of a person with a broken heart
You didn't see me I was falling apart
I was a white girl in a crowd of white girls in a park
You didn't see me I was falling apart
I was a television version of a person with a broken heart

And everybody was gone
You were standin' in the street 'cause you were trying not to crack up
And bona drag was still on
Now I only think about Los Angeles when the sun kicks out
Now I only think about Los Angeles when the sun kicks out

You said it would be painless
The needle in the doll
You said it would be painless
It wasn't that at all
You said it would be painless
The needle in the doll
You said it would be painless
It wasn't that at all (when the sun kicks out)

You said it would be painless
The needle in the doll (when the sun kicks out)
You said it would be painless
It wasn't that at all

Lana Del Rey - Old Money

Blue hydrangea, cold cash, divine,
Cashmere, cologne and white sunshine.
Red racing cars, Sunset and Vine,
The kids were young and pretty.

Where have you been? Where did you go?
Those summer nights seem long ago,
And so is the girl you used to call,
The Queen of New York City.

But if you send for me you know I'll come,
And if you call for me you know I'll run.
I'll run to you, I'll run to you, I'll run, run, run.
I'll come to you, I'll come to you, I'll come, come, come.

Ohh, Ohh.
Ahh, Ahh.

The power of youth is on my mind,
Sunsets, small town, I'm out of time.
Will you still love me when I shine,
From words but not from beauty?

My father's love was always strong,
My mother's glamour lives on and on,
Yet still inside I felt alone,
For reasons unknown to me.

But if you send for me you know I'll come,
And if you call for me you know I'll run.
I'll run to you, I'll run to you, I'll run, run, run.
I'll come to you, I'll come to you, I'll come, come, come.

Ohh, Ohh.
Ahh, Ahh.

And if you call, I'll run, run, run,
If you change your mind, I'll come, come, come.

Ohh, Ohh.
Ahh, Ahh.

Blue hydrangea, cold cash, divine,
Cashmere, cologne and hot sunshine.
Red racing cars, Sunset and Vine,
And we were young and pretty.

Sigur Rós - Fjögur Píanó

dEUS - Slow

Slow would be the tempo of the restless soul
You have seen what a listless life can bring
Wait and then you wait until he's waiting for
The latency of everything

Slow will be the rhythm of the hummingbird
The quick speed in the shutter of his eye
On flowers you will pose and you will spread the word
On how the world is slowly passing by

Slow entireness of your control
Of the moment that is nearly standing still
And wait for a minute and not a second more
Unphased like a forbidden thrill

Gently behind the beat
We shuffle on ancient streets
The reverb of time
Is our vantage point
We slept for a million years
Lived through a million fears
We are not nervous
We will not ask for more

If you can slow up
I'm gonna slow up too

Slow like the kissing of a lazy cheek
Like the limit and the deadline of the rush
And words, words waiting for you to speak
Or getting lost in your eternal crush

Slow would be the tempo of the restless mind
You've seen what a listless life can bring
And wait and then he waits until he's waiting for
For the latency of everything

Gently behind the beat
We shuffle on ancient streets
The reverb of time
Is our vantage point
We slept for a million years
Lived through a million fears
We are not nervous
We will not ask for more
Pawns of the troubled times
And kings of our petty crimes
The minds will function
With a small delay
See what the past has planned
The future's a beggar's hand
The more we understand
The slower our days

If you can slow up
I'm gonna slow up too

Björk - Aurora

Treading
The glacier head
Looking hard for
Moments of shine
From twilight
To twilight
Ahhhhh...
Utter mundane

Aurora
Goddess sparkle
Shoot me
Beyond this suffer
The need
Is great
Aurora
Ahhhh...
Utter mundane

Aurora
Goddess sparkle
A mountain shade
Suggests your shape
I tumbled down
On my knees
Fill the mouth
With snow
The way it melts
I wish
To melt
Into you
Aurora
Ahhh...
Utter mundane

Spark the sun off
Spark the sun off
Spark the sun off
Spark the sun off me

Morrissey - Margaret On The Guillotine

The kind people
have a wonderful dream
Margaret on the guillotine
because people like you
make me feel so tired
When will you die?
When will you die?
When will you die?
When will you die?
When will you die?

And people like you
make me feel so old inside
please die
and kind people
do not shelter this dream
Make it real
Make the dream real
Make the dream real
Make it real

Nirvana - D-7 (1990 Radio Appearance)

Straight as an arrow
Defect defect
Not straight, not so straight
Reject reject
Towards anti-social
Solo solo
Standing on the stairs
Cold, cold morning
Ghostly image of fear
Mayday mayday
Gonna leave this region
They'll take me with them

Dimension seven

Straight as an arrow
Defect defect
Not straight, not so straight
Reject reject
Towards anti-social
Dull dull, so dull

Nine Inch Nails - Another Version Of The Truth

"Grace The Teacher"

Kasabian - Clouds

Walking through a sharpen center
On the very screech adventure
I tilt my head to the gap you walked on before
Shifting through the magazines
Crawling out a bag and cheat
Looking at the pile of all the things we took
As it bounces out, we couldn't give a fuck

Where do you go
When your arms are 'neath the rainbow?
Write a letter to yourself
And you, you got to let go

Take a walk outside
The rain is never ending
We don't want you in your space
It's time to stop pretending

We rise above the clouds
We rise above the clouds

Never kissed me, accusations
I'm down in conversation
I can't control my laughter
When you're so sincere
Take control, my life going so slow, tempting

Where do you go
When your arms are 'neath the rainbow?
Write a letter to yourself
And you, you got to let go

Take a walk outside
The rain is never ending
We don't want you in your space
It's time to stop pretending

We rise above the clouds
We rise above the clouds

Toy Dolls - My Wife's a Psychopath

I couldn't wait for my blind date, I did not sleep that night
Could I catch the perfect match, would she be mrs. Right!?
A quiet lass so middle class, dignified, meek & mild?
I faced the wrath of a psychopath & a woman that went wild

Before too long it all went wrong, she weren’t the one for me
But I was trapped when I got slapped by a raving loony
She got mean, she caused a scene, I said "you're not my type"
But I gave in, how could I win? As she threw another swipe...Ferociously

My wife's a psychopath. Throws a fit then she hides in the bathroom
My wife's a psychopath aooeee
My wife's a psychopath. Always on the warpath
After me, mentally deranged!

I'm black & blue, I said "we're through" I'm cuts n' scrapes n' scars
She clenched her fist, I ducked, she missed, so I kicked her up the arse!
She yelled & squealed as I revealed I had learnt some self defense
I smashed her face in, just incase, coz I hate violence...It's not for me

My wife's an psychopath...

Psycho...Psycho...She's a bleedin' psycho...

Peter Murphy - Your Face

Water lily
Freedom
Where does the
Spirit lay?
Freedom
Lying in shadows
Of light and clay

I trace your feet
Like transparent thrones
I dream of your clinging
I am not alone
I glide with you
Draw you with kole
Your paint the river
I am not alone

That lover
In the crash
That scent
lingers now
Your face

Your face

I trace your feet
Like transparent thrones
I dream of your clinging
I am not alone
I glide with you
Draw you with kole
Your paint the river
I am not alone

The Naked And Famous - Spank

I don’t remember the first time
But I think I survived
Probably better not to try to recall cause it feeds it, yea it keeps it alive
There are specific things
That I have to do
Day to day just to keep it at bay
You wouldn’t believe if you knew

Oh no, this isn’t real

Here’s a little secret
Here’s the best part
This is gonna take me right back to the start
If I can’t hear it
If it’s out of mind
Wait until it settles
Comes round a second time

I don’t remember the first time
But I think I survived
Probably better not to try to recall cause it feeds it, yea it keeps it alive

Oh no, this isn’t real

Here’s a little secret
Here’s the best part
This is gonna take me right back to the start
If I can’t hear it
If it’s out of mind
Wait until it settles
Comes round a second time

I can feel it loom up into my head
It is in the room
Panicking in bed
I feel it coming on
Taking over view
Oh please not tonight
There’s nothing I can do
This is bigger than me
This is in my fear

This is pitiful
I just disappear
Swells up all around me
Swallowed up inside
Sell my senses if it would make this subside
I can barely handle
I can pass the time
Staring through the curtains up into the sky
Where there is no depth perception
Keep preoccupied: self deception

Nobody recognises
It doesn’t have a name
My brother is infected; he’s acting just the same
Screaming like a siren, up and down the hall
He just wants to stop it
He wants to end it all
I am just a child
I have nothing more than the basic function I am running from
I curl up and wallow
My distortion
Everything is disproportion

Suddenly I wake
All is back again
Everything is closer
Morning is the same
And I can’t hear it; it’s way out of mind
I will just forget this till the next time

Another Dimension, Another Dimension

Well Now don't you tell me to smile
You stick around I'll make it worth your while
Got numbers beyond what you can dial
Maybe it's because I'm so versatile
Style profile I said
It always brings me back when I hear Ooh Child
From the Hudson River out to the Nile
I run the marathon til the very last mile
If you battle me I will revile
People always say my style is wild
You've got gall you've got guile
To step to me I'm a rapophile
If you want to battle your in denial
Coming from Uranus to check my style
Go ahead put my rhymes on trial
Cast you off into exile

Jazz and Awol that's our team
Step inside the party disrupt the whole scene
When it comes to beats well I'm a fiend
I like my sugar with coffee and cream
Well I got to keep it going keep it going full steam
Too sweet to be sour too nice to be mean
On the tough guy style I'm not too keen
To try to change the world I will plot and scheme
Mario C likes to keep it clean
Gonna shine like a sun beam
Keep on rapping cause that's my dream
Got an A from Moe Dee for sticking to themes
When it comes to envy y'all is green
Jealous of the rhyme and the rhyme routine
Another dimension new galaxy

From the family tree of old school hip hop
Kick off your shoes and relax your socks
The rhymes will spread just like a pox
Cause the music is live like an electric shock
I am known to do the Wop
Also known for the Flintstone Flop
Tammy D getting biz on the crop
Beastie Boys known to let the beat... drop
When I wrote graffiti my name was Slop
If my rap's soup my beats is stock
Step from the tables as I start to chop
I'm a lumber jack DJ Adrock
If you try to knock me you'll get mocked
I'll stir fry you in my wok
Your knees'll start shaking and your fingers pop
Like a pinch on the neck of Mr. Spock

Pixies - What Goes Boom

Fatty had it made like a blade in the sun
Like a push in the bush when you got none
Ping pong bingo, fills a la Ringo
Analog bong but it ring wrong

Make some room
What goes boom

I'm a fatty in my caddy with my ponic blunt
Not a stunted runt looking natty
Cozy as a manger Chet Baker in the changer
Subs for my dub, really got you

Make some room
What goes boom

Grace
In her lace and her stocking
Carrying her bass
She really likes to get rocking
Oh darling Grace
Are we gonna get rocking?

I like that slinky little punky, little bit funky
Itty bitty chunky right there
Little bit lippy, a whipped cream hippie
Zip and unzippy and I want her

Make some room
What goes boom

Make some room
What goes boom

Grace
In her lace and her stocking
Carrying her bass
She really likes to get rocking
Oh darling Grace

Cat Power - Breathless

It's up in the morning and on the downs
Little white clouds like gambolling lambs
And I am breathless over you

And the red-breasted robin beats his wings
His throat it trembles when he sings
For he is helpless before you

The happy hooded bluebells bow
And bend their heads all a-down
Heavied by the early morning dew

At the whispering stream, at the bubbling brook
The fishes leap up to take a look
For they are breathless over you

Still your hands
And still your heart
For still your face comes shining through
And all the morning glows anew

Still your mind
Still your soul
For still, the fare of love is true
And I am breathless without you

The wind circles among the trees
And it bangs about the new-made leaves
For it is breathless without you

The fox chases the rabbit round
The rabbit hides beneath the ground
For he is defenceless without you

The sky of daytime dies away
And all the earthly things they stop to play
For we are all breathless without you

I listen to my juddering bones
The blood in my veins and the wind in my lungs
And I am breathless without you

Still your hands
And still your heart
For still your face comes shining through
And all the morning glows anew

Still your soul
Still your mind
Still, the fire of love is true
And I am breathless without you

(originally recorded by Nick Cave And The Bad Seeds)

James - Interrogation

Who do I blame
Impale
When I have nailed someone
Nailed someone for crimes
I harbour in my mind
My self-righteous mind
When I have raised my colours
Raised my colours high
These chains I've forged
Sinking like a stone
Sunk to depths
Interrogation
All I judge
I have become
Interrogation
Of my own

Let the records show
Liars, lies and self-deceit
Liars, lies and self-deceit
Digging a hole, digging a hole, hole
Liars, lies and self-deceit
Liars, lies and self-deceit
Digging a hole, digging a hole

Scrape the blade
Under my jaw
Where I have caught myself before
This blade repeats mistakes
Tiny lies
Where I have nicked myself
The lies drain out the light

Holes
Liars, lies and self-deceit
Liars, lies and self-deceit
Digging a hole, digging a hole, hole
Liars, lies and self-deceit
Liars, lies and self-deceit
Digging a hole, digging a hole

No strawberry grows in Strawberry Road
Just things to get strung out about
Whatever together…
No strawberries grow in Strawberry Road
Everybody gets strung out
Together whatever forever…

Led Zeppelin - Nobody's Fault But Mine

Nobody's fault but mine
Nobody's fault but mine
Trying to save my soul tonight
It's nobody's fault but mine

Devil he told me to roll
Devil he told me to roll
How to roll the log tonight
Nobody's fault but mine

Brother he showed me the gong
Brother he showed me the ding dong ding dong
How to kick that gong to light
Oh, it's nobody's fault but mine

Got a monkey on my back
Got a monkey on my back
Gonna change my ways tonight
Nobody's fault but mine

I will get down rollin' tonight
Nobody's fault

Sonic Youth - Anti-Orgasm

Mission control to brain police
Free love, key energy

Penetration (destroys the party)
Violation (of a cosmic body)
Do you under (stand the problem)
Anti-war (is anti-orgasm)

Smash the war hypocrisy
Mission control key anarchy

Liberation (not your sex slave)
Domination (will you behave)
See how we be (lieve in nothing)
Anti-god (is anti-orgasm)

Sharon Van Etten - Serpents

It was a close call
Sitting in the back of the room
With a bowl you had owned
But they didn't know
Close in on my black eye
I feel safe at times
Certain emblems
Tell me it's time

Serpents in my mind
Looking for your crimes
Everything changes
I don't want mine to this time

You enjoy sucking on dreams
So I will fall asleep
With someone other than you
I had a thought you would take me
Seriously and listen on

Serpents in my mind
I am searching for your crimes
Everything changes
In time
You'll stay frozen in time
Collaging girls, controlling minds
You hold the mirror well to everybody else

Serpents in my mind
Trying to forgive your crimes
Everyone changes in time
I hope he changes this time.

Nirvana - Clean Up Before She Comes

Clean up before she comes
Clean up before she comes
Clean up before she comes
Clean up before she comes
Clean up before she comes
Living in a dusty town
Living in a dusty town
Living in a dusty town
Something in her eyes
Must be the smoke from my lungs
Something in her eyes
Must be the smoke from my lungs

I must be getting old
I must be getting older
I'm starting to eat my vegetables
Something in her eyes
Must be the smoke from my lungs
Something in her eyes
Must be the smoke from my lungs

Clean up the dusty town
Living in a dusty town
Living in a dusty town
Living in a dusty town
Clean up before she comes
Clean up before she comes
Clean up before she comes
Living in a dusty town

I must be getting old
I must be getting old

I'm starting to eat my vegetables

Nine Inch Nails - Right Where It Belongs

See the animal in his cage that you built
Are you sure what side you're on?
Better not look him too closely in the eye
Are you sure what side of the glass you are on?
See the safety of the life you have built
Everything where it belongs
Feel the hollowness inside of your heart
And it's all
Right where it belongs

What if everything around you
Isn't quite as it seems
What if all the world you think you know
Is an elaborate dream?
And if you look at your reflection
Is that all you want it to be?
What if you could look right through the cracks
Would you find yourself—find yourself afraid to see?

What if all the world's inside of your head
Just creations of your own?
Your devils and your gods all the living and the dead
And you're really all alone
You can live in this illusion
You can choose to believe
You keep looking but you can't find the woods
While you’re hiding in the trees

What if everything around you
Isn't quite as it seems
What if all the world you used to know
Is an elaborate dream?
And if you look at your reflection
Is that all you want it to be?
What if you could look right through the cracks
Would you find yourself—find yourself afraid to see?

Violent Femmes - Out the Window

Life was fun
life was great
til I made my big mistake
oh no it'll never happen to me
life was short
and life was sweet
I was thinking as I hit the street
I could hardly beleve
I could scarcely conceive
but I had gone out the window
I had gone out the window
I had gone out the window
she was fine
she looked great
and so we made our big mistake
I swear I swear I swear
it'd never happen to her
but the pavement knocked her head around
when she hit the solid concrete ground
from 30 flights above
and she was thirty something loving nothing
gone out the window
she had gone out the window
she had gone out the window
catch me if I'm falling,
catch me if I'm calling
he was smart he was wise
he'd profoundly philosophize
empathy for all humanity
'til one day by an open window
there's a note that read
I've gone out the window - I'm dead
he said yes to life for all of his life
but then one day he said no
I gotta go out the window
we all go out the window
catch me I am falling
catch me I am calling
catch me we are falling
catch me we are calling
