Kaiser Chiefs - Record Collection

I'm a record collection, a dedicated section
I'm a memory of everything you've ever seen and ever done
I'm a subtle seduction, I am utter corruption
I'm the God enlightened, cleaned up, heightened re-enactment of your day
I'm a hidden agenda, hidden in the credenza
In the darkest corner of the room inside the room inside your head
Uh-huh, inside your head, inside your head, inside your head, uh

Sit back and relapse into the world we built for you
Where everything you'll need is on its way now
Make yourself at home, my extraordinary friend
Where everything is okay in the end

I'm thinking of a number
Whispered in Hong Kong
Double it and pass it on
Zero, zero, zero, one
Play us one more number
Give us one more song
Tell us one we've heard before
Zero, zero, zero, more

Architecturally speaking, 50 gram is a weakling
I'm a city planner with a stammer who carved out New York, New York
From the tip of the rhino, fuck it if I know
I'm the unexpected, twist your endless laundry list of heinous crimes
I can plant a suggestion, rig an election
I'm the hidden top line of the tune that's on a loop inside your mind
Uh-huh, inside your mind, inside your mind, inside your mind, uh

Sit back and relapse into the world we built for you
Where everything you'll need is on its way now
Make yourself at home, my extraordinary friend
Where everything is okay in the end

I'm thinking of a number
Whispered in Hong Kong
Double it and pass it on
Zero, zero, zero, one
Play us one more number
Give us one more song
Tell us one we've heard before
Zero, zero, zero, more

On an endless corridor behind each hidden door
Infinity and one more never ending bidding war
Send us your details, my extraordinary friend
Everything is okay if you

Sit back and relapse into the world we built for you
Where everything you'll need is on its way now
Make yourself at home, my extraordinary friend
Where everything is okay in the end

Pixies - St. Nazaire

Down at the rocks at St. Nazaire
I took a bottle and a fucking prayer
I washed out with the greasy tide
I went down on the Selkie bride

Look how he's dead and her eyes all black
Just smells like spliff and Armagnac
She lost her coat, but I like her style
She lost her head, but I like her smile

I'm all done talking to you, oh
And I don't wanna beat you, no
I'm all done talking to you

I took a bottle and a fucking prayer
Down at the rocks at St. Nazaire
Look how he's dead and her eyes all black
I washed down never coming back

I'm all done talking to you, oh
And I don't wanna beat you, no
I'm done with talking to you

I'm all done talking to you, oh
And I don't wanna beat you, no
I'm done with talking to you

The Doors - Take It As It Comes

Time to live
Time to lie
Time to laugh
Time to die

Takes it easy, baby
Take it as it comes
Don't move too fast
And you want your love to last
Oh, you've been movin' much too fast

Time to walk
Time to run
Time to aim your arrows
At the sun

Takes it easy, baby
Take it as it comes
Don't move too fast
And you want your love to last
Oh, you've been movin' much too fast

Go real slow
You like it more and more
Take it as it comes
Specialize in havin' fun

Takes it easy, baby
Take it as it comes
Don't move too fast
And you want your love to last
Oh, you've been movin' much too fast
Movin' much too fast
Movin' much too fast

The Toy Dolls - When You're Jimmy Savile

Jimmy lives his life for charity
Jimmy's got no wife just an O.B.E.
Everybody depends on Jimmy
Jimmy's getting a little cheesed off
Jimmy reckons they've all enough
If they want Jim it's tough

Coz when you're Jimmy Saville (Woooooo)
Everybody thinks yer brill (Think yer brill)
But Jim'll fix it's to be done (Woooooo)
Then that bleedin' Great North Run (The Great North Run)
No it's never too much fun for James

Jimmy does get up at 4:30
But Jimmy does not get time for breaky
He's not complaining, Jimmy's training
Somebody's sponsoring Jim again
So Jimmy bites his tongue and counts to ten
"Oh stuff this" Jimmy snarles

Coz when you're Jimmy Saville (Woooooo)
Everybody thinks yer brill (Think yer brill)
But Jim'll fix it's to be done (Woooooo)
Then that bleedin' Great North Run (The Great North Run)
No it's never too much fun for James

There's no time off, Jimmy's in deep
For James there ain't no sleep

Coz when you're Jimmy Saville (Woooooo)
Everybody thinks yer brill (Think yer brill)
But Jim'll fix it's to be done (Woooooo)
Then that bleedin' Great North Run (The Great North Run)
No it's never too much fun for James

Jimmy Saville
Oo oo Jimmy Saville
Jimmy Saville
Jimmy Saville

Howza 'bout that then guys and gals

Zwan - Ride a Black Swan

A black swan rode me into my place of destiny
To love, to feel so madly
So born to disagree
With people who think that life is just a memory
To be denied
I'll take this picture for ages
Of just you and i

As the world goes 'round
It's got me thinking
That the things I want
Just keep me sinking down

A white horse picks my dreams up
To take my hopes to God
My prayers have nestled brightly
To dim my sense of awe
I want you to be someone I can't deny
A house afire
I want you to be something I realize

As the world goes 'round
It's got me thinking
That the things I want
Just keep me sinking down
As the world goes 'round
It's got me thinking
That the things I want
Will keep me sinking down

Remove my spirit from darkness
Love become my hammer
As the world goes 'round with our love

I want you to be my message
I want you to be my friend
I want you to be that answer
An answer I must defend
I want us to solve our distrust of everyone
And trust in God
I want us to solve our distrust of who we are

As the world goes 'round
It's got me thinking
That the things I want
Just keep me sinking down
As the world goes 'round
It's got me thinking
That the things I want
Just keep me sinking down

As the world goes 'round with our love
As the world goes 'round with our love

Remove my spirit from darkness
Love become my hammer
Remove my spirit from darkness
Love become my hammer
Remove my spirit from darkness
Love become my hammer
As the world goes 'round with our love
As the world goes 'round with our love

Nirvana - Old Age (Nevermind Outtake)

One more day to complete my service
One more high to decay my never
Wondering how I'm gonna find a way
It's over
One more day to complete my service
One more time here to fade my servant
One more day if I find a way
Over

She seemed to read minds
And I know a later time
We could make it with you
Leave the soul

Old age, old age, old age, old age

One more day to complain my servant
One more doubt here to find a servant
One more time here if I find a way
It's over
Wondering how I'm here date my cover
One more doubt here to save my never
Wondering how I'm gonna find a way
It's over

She seemed to read minds
And I know a later time
We could make it with you
Leave the soul

Old age, old age, old age, old age

Just you need
And read
You're freak

And knew
You read
You flew

One more day to complete my circuit
One more high here to find my nervous
Someday I'm gonna find a way
It's over
One more doubt here to claim my supper
I can have anything you want to
One more day if I find a way
It's over

She seemed to read minds
And I know we were out of time
Breathe the way here with you
Dream the same on the dew
Breathe the same on her
Take a moan on a man
Breathe the shame on you
Breathe the lie

Old age, old age, old age, old age
Old age, old age, old age

Mazzy Star - Be My Angel

They say it's me that makes you do things
You might not have done if I was away
And that it's me that likes to talk to you
And watches you as you walk away

Don't say it's useless, don't say forget it
Don't bring me wishes of silly dreams
Just save us all from too much freedom
Too many fingers in too many things

They say it's you that washes the weary
And brings the night into the day
If you won't notice, how can I show you
All of your worries have all gone away?

Don't leave me lonely, don't leave me unhappy
Just bring me up into your faith
If you don't need me, then don't deceive me
Letting my freedom turn into stone

Just be my angel if you love me
Be my angel, in the night
Be my angel, 'cause you need me
Be my angel, and treat me right

Don't say you love me if you don't need me
Don't send me roses on your behalf
Just take me down, and walk through your river
Down in the middle and make it last

Holding on to you, holding on to me
Holding on tight 'til my love is crossed
Don't say it's useless, and don't say forget it
You are my spirit, and now you are gone

Ramones - Judy Is a Punk

Jackie is a punk
Judy is a runt
They both went down to Berlin, joined the Ice Capades
And oh, I don't know why
Oh, I don't know why
Perhaps they'll die

Jackie is a punk
Judy is a runt
They both went down to Frisco, joined the SLA
And oh, I don't know why
Oh, I don't know why
Perhaps they'll die

Paradise Lost - Don't Belong

People say I’m in the way
People say never betray
Oh when I’ve gone, when I’ve gone
You’ll turn to me when I’ve gone, when I’ve gone

Need a little understanding for all I’ve done
In another situation I don’t belong (belong)

Every day humiliate
Every way solemn in trait
Oh when I’ve gone, when I’ve gone
You’ll turn the key when I’ve gone
Don’t belong…

Need a little understanding for all I’ve done
In another situation I don’t belong
Need a little understanding for all I’ve done
In another situation I would belong (belong)

Need a little understanding for all I’ve done
In another situation I don’t belong
Need a little understanding for all I’ve done
In another situation I would belong (belong)

Vampire Weekend - Harmony Hall

We took a vow in summertime

Now we find ourselves in late December

I believe that New Year's Eve

Will be the perfect time

For their great surrender

But they don't remember

Anger wants a voice

Voices wanna sing

Singers harmonize

Till they can't hear anything

Thought that I was free

From all that questioning

But every time a problem ends

Another one begins

And the stone walls of Harmony Hall bear witness

Anybody with a worried mind can never forgive the sight

Of wicked snakes inside a place you thought was dignified

I don't wanna live like this, but I don't wanna die

I don't wanna live like this, but I don't wanna die

Within the halls of power lies

A nervous heart that beats

Like a young pretender's

Beneath these velvet gloves I hide

The shameful crooked hands

Of money lender

'Cause I still remember

Anger wants a voice

Voices wanna sing

Singers harmonize

Till they can't hear anything

Thought that I was free

From all that questioning

But every time a problem ends

Another one begins

And the stone walls of Harmony Hall bear witness

Anybody with a worried mind can never forgive the sight

Of wicked snakes inside a place you thought was dignified

I don't wanna live like this, but I don't wanna die

I don't wanna live like this, but I don't wanna die

And the stone walls of Harmony Hall bear witness

Anybody with a worried mind can never forgive the sight

Of wicked snakes inside a place you thought was dignified

I don't wanna live like this, but I don't wanna die

I don't wanna live like this, but I don't wanna die

And the stone walls of Harmony Hall bear witness

Anybody with a worried mind can never forgive the sight

Of wicked snakes inside a place you thought was dignified

I don't wanna live like this, but I don't wanna die

Morrissey - Sister I'm a Poet

All over this town
Yes, a low wind may blow
And I can see through
Everybody's clothes

With no reason
To hide these words, I feel
And no reason
To talk about the books I read
But still, I do

That's 'cause I'm a
Sister I'm a
All over this town

Along this way
Outside the prison gates
I love the romance of crime
And I wonder

Does anybody feel
The same way I do?
And is evil just something you are
Or something you do?

Sister I'm a
Sister I'm a
All over this town
All over this town
They pull over
In their Citroen vans
Not to shake your hands

With Meths on their breaths
And you with youth on your side
All alone, lone, alone, waiting at the lights
But not this time

Sister I'm a
Sister I'm a
All over this town

All
Oh
All over this town

System Of A Down - Lost In Hollywood

I'll wait here,
You're crazy,
Those vicious streets are filled with strays,
You should have never gone to Hollywood.

They find you,
Two-time you,
Say you're the best they've ever seen,
You should have never trusted Hollywood.

I wrote you,
And told you,
You were the biggest fish out here,
You should have never gone to Hollywood.

They take you,
And make you,
They look at you in disgusting ways,
You should have never trusted Hollywood.

I was standing on the wall,
Feeling ten feet tall,
All you maggots smoking fags on Santa Monica Boulevard,
This is my front page,
This is my new age,
All you bitches put your hands in the air and wave them like you just don't care.

All you maggots smoking fags out there on Sunset Boulevard.

All you bitches put your hands in the air and wave them like you just don't care.

Phony people come to pray,
Look at all of them beg to stay,
Phony people come to pray.

(The lines in the letter said, "We have gone to Hackensack")
Look at all of them beg to stay

Phony people come to pray.

All you maggots smoking fags on Santa Monica Boulevard,
All you maggots smoking fags out there on Sunset Boulevard.
All you maggots smoking fags out there on Hollywood Boulevard.

You should have never trusted Hollywood.
You should have never gone to Hollywood.

All you bitches put your hands in the air and wave them like you just don't care.

You should have never trusted Hollywood.

M83 - Wait

Send your dreams
Where nobody hides
Give your tears
To the tide
No time
No time

There's no end
There is no goodbye
Disappear
With the night
No time
No time
No time
No time
No time

Ramones - I Know Better Now

Nobody
Can tell me
I know
I know better now

You're a kid
You're a brat

Clean up your room
Throw out the trash
When I was your age
I heard it all
Like livin' under
Your martial law

I would think it was
For my own good
I would think it was true

Gotta be in early
Gotta go to school
They don't like my friends
I don't like those rules

I'm not a criminal
I'm not on drugs
Don't wait up for me
I'm out havin' fun

I would think it was
For my own good
I would think it was true

Placebo - Loud Like Love

Love on an atom, love on a cloud
To see the birth of all that isn't now
Can you imagine a love that is so proud?
It never has to question why or how
Total abandon the love in my dreams
When I wake up I'm soaking in my sheets

Breathe, breathe
Believe, believe, believe, believe

For all of our youth
We have craved them
Their beauty and their truth

Breathe, breathe, breathe, breathe
Believe, believe, believe, believe
Breathe, breathe, breathe, breathe
Believe, believe
That we are loud like

Love on an atom, love on a cloud
To see the birth of all that isn't now
Can you imagine a love that is so proud?
It never has to question why or how

For all of our youth
We have craved them
Their beauty and their truth

So we name them
And somehow they pull us through
We have craved them
For all of our youth

Breathe, breathe, breathe, breathe
Believe, believe, believe, believe
We are loud like love
We are loud like love
We are loud like love
We are loud like love
We are loud like love
We are loud like love
We are loud like love
We are loud like love
We are loud like love

The Sisters Of Mercy feat. Ofra Haza - Temple Of Love (1992)

With the fire from the fireworks up above me
With a gun for a lover and a shot for the pain at hand
You run for cover in the temple of love
You run for another but still the same
For the wind will blow my name across this land

In the temple of love you hide together
Believing pain and fear outside
But someone near you rides the weather
And the tears he cried will rain on walls
As wide as lovers eyes

In the temple of love, shine like thunder
In the temple of love, cry like rain
In the temple of love, hear my calling
In the temple of love, hear my name

And the devil in black dress watches over
My guardian angel walks away
Life is short and love is always over in the morning
Black wind come carry me far away

With the sunlight died and night above me
With a gun for a lover and a shot for the pain inside
You run for cover in the temple of love
You run for another it's all the same
For the wind will blow and throw your walls aside

With the fire from the fireworks up above
With a gun for a lover and a shot for the pain
You run for cover in the temple of love
Shine like thunder, cry like rain
And the temple of love grows old and strong
But the wind blows stronger, cold and long
And the temple of love will fall before us
Black wind calls my name to you no more

Ooooooooh

In the black sky thunder sweeping underground
And over water sounds of crying weeping
Will not save your faith for bricks and dreams for mortar
All your prayers must seem as nothing, ninety-six below the wave
When stone is dust and only air remains

In the temple of love (temple of love), shine like thunder
In the temple of love (temple of love), cry like rain (cry like rain)
In the temple of love (temple of love), hear the calling
And the temple of love
Is falling down

Ooooooooh
Temple of love
Ooooooooh
Temple of love
Ooooooooh

In the temple of love (temple of love), shine like thunder
In the temple of love (temple of love), cry like rain (cry like rain)
In the temple of love (temple of love), hear the calling

In the black sky thunder sweeping underground
And over water sounds of crying weeping
Will not save your faith for bricks and dreams for mortar
All your prayers must seem as nothing
Ninety-six below the wave
When stone is dust and air remains
The only haven you can trust

And the devil in black dress watches over
My guardian angel walks away
Life is short and love is always over in the morning
Black wind come carry me far away

With the fire from the fireworks up above
With a gun for a lover and a shot for the pain
You run for cover in the temple of love
Shine like thunder, cry like rain
And the temple grows old and strong
But the wind blows stronger cold and long
And the temple of love will fall before
This black wind calls my name to you no more

Ooooooooh
Temple of love
Ooooooooh

In the temple of love you hide together
Believing pain and fear outside
But someone near you rides the weather
And the tears he cried will rain on walls
As wide as lovers eyes

In the temple of love (temple of love), shine like thunder
In the temple of love (temple of love), cry like rain (cry like rain)
In the temple of love (temple of love), hear the calling
And the temple of love
Is falling down

The Cure - 10:15 Saturday Night

10.15
Saturday night
And the tap drips
Under the strip light
And I'm sitting
In the kitchen sink
And the tap drips
Drip drip drip drip drip drip drip drip

Waiting
For the telephone to ring
And I'm wondering
Where she's been
And I'm crying
For yesterday
And the tap drips
Drip drip drip drip drip drip drip drip

It's always the same

Nirvana - I Hate Myself And Want To Die

Runny nose and runny yolk
Even if you have a cold still
You can cough on me again
I still haven't had my fulfill

End it someday what's that sound?
End it someday what's that sound?
End it someday what's that sound?
End it someday what's that sound?

Broken heart and broken bones
Finger plaster cast and horse pills
One more quirky cliche'd phrase
You're the one I wanna refill

End it someday what's that sound?
End it someday what's that sound?
End it someday what's that sound?
End it someday what's that sound?

Most people don't realize
That two large pieces of coral
Which have been painted brown
and attached to his skull
With common wood screws can make a child look like a deer

End it someday what's that sound?
End it someday what's that sound?
End it someday what's that sound?
End it someday what's that sound?

Runny nose and runny yolk
Even if you have a cold still
You can cough on me again
I still haven't had my fulfill

End it someday what's that sound?
End it someday what's that sound?
End it someday what's that sound?
End it someday what's that sound?

The Cure - Signal To Noise

Nothing I do makes much sense
Say you don’t really get me anymore
I wonder if you ever did… If you ever did at all?
Nothing I want means a lot
Say you don’t understand me like before
I’m not sure if you ever did… If you ever did at all?

Nothing I think has a point
Say you don’t quite believe me anymore
I wonder if you ever did… If you ever did at all?

Gets hard to guess the best way through
The thing to do if none of this is true
I wish I knew how to undo
The doubt I hide inside
I grew in you…

The knot I hide inside I tied in you…

Nothing I am shows the way
Say you don’t seem to know me like before
I’m not sure if you ever did… If you ever did at all?

No nothing I do makes much sense
Say you don’t really get me anymore
I wonder if you ever did… If you ever did at all?

Gets hard to guess the best way through
The thing to do if none of this is true
I wish I knew how to undo
The knot I tied in you…
When more or less the yes and no
Is all for show it isn’t really so…
Look high and low where did we go?
You moved too fast or maybe I just moved too slow?

There’s so much noise…
All the signal seems to fade away
Too much noise…

Or could be this is how it always sounds
With nothing left?

Mazzy Star - Bells Ring

Bells ring into the night
Like a mystery
Sounding at night
Hold your throat
And arm together

And see the light that goes away
Leave my heart down by the water
He spins inside my soul
It isn't true but you follow
Just hold me down by the water

They say you look like
I'm gonna leave her
Look up to see the weakness
In the sky
Nobody's eyes are bright and starry
Nobody wants to know your reason why

Hold your hands out towards the water
In front of me to know I'm with you
Don't put it all into your hero
Look on if you believe
Look on if you believe

Don't want to say that I'm through with it
Just want to be
Right by your side
Right by your side

St. Vincent - Digital Witness

Get back, to your seat
Get back, gnashing teeth
Ooh, I want all of your mind

People turn the TV on, it looks just like a window, yeah
People turn the TV on, it looks just like a window, yeah

Digital witnesses, what's the point of even sleeping?
If I can't show it, if you can't see me
What's the point of doing anything?
This is no time for confessing

I want all of your mind

People turn the TV on, it looks just like a window, yeah
People turn the TV on, it looks just like a window, yeah

Digital witnesses, what's the point of even sleeping?
If I can't show it, if you can't see me
Watch me jump right off the London Bridge
This is no time for confessing

People turn the TV on and throw it out the window, yeah
Get back to your stare
I care, but I don't care
Oh oh, I, I want all of your mind
Give me all of your mind
I want all of your mind
Give me all of it

Digital witnesses, what's the point of even sleeping?
If I can't show it, if you can't see me
What's the point of doing anything?
What's the point of even sleeping?
So I stopped sleeping, yeah I stopped sleeping
Won't somebody sell me back to me?

Beck - Where It's At

There's a destination a little up the road
From the habitations and the towns we know
A place we saw the lights turn low
The jig-saw jazz and the get-fresh flow

Pulling out jives and jamboree handouts
Two turntables and a microphone
Bottles and cans just clap your hands
Just clap your hands

Where it's at!
I got two turntables and a microphone
Where it's at!
I got two turntables and a microphone
Where it's at!
I got two turntables and a microphone
Where it's at!

I got two turntables and a microphone

(take me home with my elevator bones!)
(that was a good drum break)

Pick yourself up off the side of the road
With your elevator bones
And your whip-flash tones
Members only hyponotizers
Move through the room like ambulance drivers
Shine your shoes with your microphone blues
Hirsute with your parachute fruits
Passing the dutchie from coast to coast
Let my man Ken Wilson (rock the most)

Where it's at!
I got two turntables and a microphone
Where it's at!
I got two turntables and a microphone

("What about those who swing both ways? AC-DC's?")

Two turntables and a microphone
Two turntables and a microphone
Two turntables and a microphone
Two turntables and a microphone
Two turntables and a microphone
Two turntables and a microphone

Where it's at!
I got two turntables and a microphone
Where it's at!
I got two turntables and a microphone

Oh, dear me.
Make-out City's a two-horse town

("That's beautiful, Dad.")

(Got my microphone....)
There's a destination a little up the road
From the habitations and the towns we know
A place we saw the lights turn low
The jig-saw jazz and the get-fresh flow

Pulling out jives and jamboree handouts
Two turntables and a microphone
Bottles and cans and just clap your hands
And just clap your hands

Where it's at!
I got two turntables and a microphone
Where it's at!
I got two turntables and a microphone

I got plastic on my mind

Lamb - Imperial Measures

The feather penny drops
Love doesn't count the cost
Imperial measures
Imperial measures

Beauty beyond a face
Clarity leaves no trace
Ephemeral pleasure
Ephemeral pleasure

What no words can say
Revelation day

Sand in the oyster shell
Ringing the wake-up bell
Indelible treasure
Indelible treasure

What no words can say
Revelation day

No words, no words, no words
They just get in the way
No words, no words, no words
Revelation day

The National - Rylan

Rylan, you should try to get some sun.
You remind me of everyone.
Rylan, did you break your mother's heart?
Every time you tried to play your part.

Is it easy to keep so quiet?
Everybody loves a quiet child.
Underwater you're almost free.
If you wanna be alone, come with me.

Rylan, we can take the quick way out.
We can turn blank white in a blank white house.
They say that you're a pervert, you're a vulture.
Don't you wanna be popular culture?

Is it easy to keep so quiet?
Everybody loves a quiet child.
Underwater you're almost free.
If you wanna be alone, come with me.

Is it easy to live inside yourself?
All the little kids are high and hazy.
Everybody's got nowhere to go,
Everybody wants to be amazing.

Rylan, California's rotten.
Dress light blue to be forgotten.
Eat your pearls on Sunday morning.
Keep your conversations boring.
Stay with me among the strangers.
Change your mind and nothing changes.
Don't let show any emotion
When you climb into the ocean.

Rylan, you should try to get some sun.
There's a little bit of hell in everyone.

Rylan, you should try to get some sun.
You remind me of everyone.

Rylan, you should try to get some sun.
There's a little bit of hell in everyone.

Rylan, you should try to get some sun.

Cocteau Twins - Winter Wonderland

Sleigh bells ring, are you listening
In the lane, snow is glistening
A beautiful sight, we're happy tonight
Walkin' in a winter wonderland

Gone away is the bluebird
Here to stay is a new bird
He sings a love song as we go along
Walkin' in a winter wonderland

In the meadow we can build a snowman
Then pretend that he is Parson Brown
He'll say, "are you married?"
We'll say, "no man",
"But you can do the job when you're in town!"

Later on we'll conspire
As we dream by the fire
To face unafraid
The plans that we made
Walkin' in a winter wonderland,
Walkin' in a winter wonderland,
Walkin' in a winter wonderland

Snow Patrol - Crack The Shutters (Reworked)

You cool your bed-warm hands down
On the broken radiator
When you lay them freezing on me
I mumble can you wake me later
But I don't really want you to stop
And you know it so it doesn't stop you
You run your hands from my neck
To my chest

Crack the shutters open wide
I want to bathe you in the light of day
And just watch you as the rays
Tangle up around your face and body
I could sit for hours
Finding new ways to be awed each minute
'Cause the daylight seems to want you
Just as much as I want you

Its been minutes, it's been days
It's been all I will remember
Happy lost in your hair
And the cold side of the pillow
Your hills and valleys
Are mapped by my intrepid fingers
And in a naked slumber
I dream all this again

Crack the shutters open wide
I want to bathe you in the light of day
And just watch you as the rays
Tangle up around your face and body
I could sit for hours
Finding new ways to be awed each minute
'Cause the daylight seems to want you
Just as much as I want you

Crack the shutters open wide
I want to bathe you in the light of day
And just watch you as the rays
Tangle up around your face and body
I could sit for hours
Finding new ways to be awed each minute
'Cause the daylight seems to want you
Just as much as I want you

Editors - The Racing Rats

When the time comes
You're no longer here
Fall down to my knees
Begin my nightmare
Words spill from my drunken mouth
I just can't keep them all in
I keep up with the racing rats
And do my best to win

Slow down little one
You can't keep running away
You mustn't go outside yet
It's not your time to play
I push my hands up to the sky
Shade my eyes from the sun
As the dust settles around me
Suddenly nightime has begun

If a plane were to fall from the sky
How big a hole would it leave
In the surface of the earth

Let's pretend we never met
Let's pretend we're on our own
We live different lives
Until our covers blown

I push my hand up to the sky
Shade my eyes from the sun
As the dust settles around me
Suddenly nightime has begun

If a plane were to fall from the sky
How big a hole would it leave
In the surface of the earth
The surface of the earth

Come on now
You knew you were lost
But you carried on anyway
Oh come on now
You knew you had no time
But you let the day drift away

If a plane were to fall from the sky
How big a hole would it leave
If a plane were to fall from the sky
How big a hole would it make
In the surface of the earth
The surface of the earth

Temple Of The Dog - Say Hello 2 Heaven (Demo)

Please, mother mercy
Take me from this place
And the long winded curses
I keep hearing in my head
Words never listen
And teachers, oh, they never learn
Now I'm warm from the candle
But I feel too cold to burn
He came from an island
And he died from the street
And he hurt so bad like a soul breaking
But he never said nothing to me

So say hello to heaven, heaven, heaven...
Say hello to heaven, heaven, heaven, yeah

New like a baby
Lost like a prayer
The sky was your playground
But the cold ground was your bed
Poor stargazer
She's got no tears in her eyes
Smooth like a whisper
She knows that love heals all wounds with time
Now it seems like too much love is never enough
You better seek out another road
Cause this one has ended abrupt

Say hello to heaven, heaven, heaven...
Say hello to heaven, heaven, heaven...
Say hello to heaven, heaven, heaven...

I never wanted
To write these words down for you
With the pages of phrases
Of all the things we'll never do
So I blow out the candle and
I put you to bed
Since you can't say to me now
How the dogs broke your bone
There's just one thing left to be said

Say hello to heaven, heaven, yeah
Say hello to heaven, heaven, yeah
Say hello to heaven, heaven, yeah
Say hello to heaven, to heaven, yeah

TV On The Radio - DLZ

Congratulations on the mess you made of things;
On trying to reconstruct the air and all that brings.
And oxidation is the compromise you own
But this is beginning to feel like the dog wants a bone
Say
La la la

You force your fire then you falsify your deeds
Your methods dot the disconnect from all your creeds
And fortune strives to fill the vacuum that it feeds
But this is beginning to feel like the dog's lost the lead
Say
La la la

This is beginning to feel like the long winded blues of the never
This is beginning to feel like it's curling up slowly and finding a throat to choke

This is beginning to feel like the long winded blues of the never
Barely controlled locomotive consuming the picture and blowing the crows to smoke

This is beginning to feel like the long winded blues of the never
Static explosion devoted to crushing the broken and shoving their souls to ghost

Eternalised. Objectified.
You set your sights so high.
But this is beginning to feel like the bolt busted loose from the lever

Never mind
Death professor
Your structure's fine
My dust is better
Your victim flies so high
All to catch a bird's eye view of who's next

Never you mind
Death professor.
If love is life,
My love is better.
Your victim flies so high,
Eyes could be the diamonds
Confused with who's next

Never you mind
Death professor.
Your shocks are fine,
My struts are better.
Your fiction flies so high,
Y'all could use a doctor
Who's sick, who's next?

Never you mind
Death professor.
Electrified,
My love is better
It's crystallized, so am I.
All could be the diamond
Fused with who's next

This is beginning to feel like the dawn of a loser forever
This is beginning to feel like the dawn of a loser forever
This is beginning to feel like the dawn of a loser forever
This is beginning to feel like the dawn of a loser forever

U2 - I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For

I have climbed the highest mountains
I have run through the fields
Only to be with you
Only to be with you.

I have run, I have crawled
I have scaled these city walls
These city walls
Only to be with you.

But I still haven't found
What I'm looking for.
But I still haven't found
What I'm looking for.

I have kissed honey lips
Felt the healing in her finger tips
It burned like fire
(I was) burning inside her.

I have spoke with the tongue of angels
I have held the hand of a devil
It was warm in the night
I was cold as a stone.

But I still haven't found
What I'm looking for.
But I still haven't found
What I'm looking for.

I believe in the Kingdom Come
Then all the colours will bleed into one
Bleed into one.
But yes, I'm still running.

You broke the bonds
And you loosed the chains
Carried the cross of my shame
Oh my shame, you know I believe it.

But I still haven't found
What I'm looking for.
But I still haven't found
What I'm looking for.

But I still haven't found
What I'm looking for.
But I still haven't found
What I'm looking for.

The Sisters Of Mercy - Ribbons

I'm lying on my back now
The stars look all too near
Flowers on the razor wire
I know you're here
We are few and far between

I was thinking about her skin
Love is a many splintered thing
Don't be afraid now
Just walk on in
(Flowers on the razor wire)
(Walk on in)

Her eyes were cobalt red
Her voice was cobalt blue
I see no purple light
Crashing out of you
So just walk on in
(Flowers on the razor wire)
(Walk on in)

Her lovers queued up in the hallway
I heard them scratching at the door
I tried to tell her
About Marx and Engels, God and angels
I don't really know what for

But she looked good in ribbons
So just walk on in
She looked good in ribbons
So just walk on in

Tie a red, red, red, red, red, red ribbon
Love is a many splintered thing
Tie a red, red, red, red ribbon
Don't be afraid
Just walk on in

Just walk on in
(Incoming...)
(Incoming...)
Just walk on in
Just walk on in
Flowers on the razor wire
Just walk on in...
Incoming!

Linkin Park - Crawling

Crawling in my skin
These wounds they will not heal
Fear is how I fall
Confusing what is real

There's something inside me that pulls beneath the surface
Consuming confusing
This lack of self-control I fear is never ending
Controlling I can't seem

To find myself again
My walls are closing in
(Without a sense of confidence and I'm convinced that there's just too much pressure to take)
I've felt this way before
So insecure

Crawling in my skin
These wounds they will not heal
Fear is how I fall
Confusing what is real

Discomfort endlessly has pulled itself upon me
Distracting reacting
Against my will I stand beside my own reflection
It's haunting how I can't seem

To find myself again
My walls are closing in
(Without a sense of confidence and I'm convinced that there's just too much pressure to take)
I've felt this way before
So insecure

Crawling in my skin
These wounds they will not heal
Fear is how I fall
Confusing what is real

Crawling in my skin
These wounds they will not heal
Fear is how I fall
Confusing confusing what is real

There's something inside me that pulls beneath the surface consuming
Confusing what is real
This lack of self-control I fear is never ending controlling
Confusing what is real

Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds - Nobody's Baby Now

I’ve searched the holy books
Tried to unravel the mystery of Jesus Christ, the saviour
I’ve read the poets and the analysts
Searched through the books on human behaviour
I travelled the whole world around
For an answer that refused to be found
I don’t know why and I don’t know how
But she’s nobody’s baby now

I loved her then and I guess I love her still
Hers is the face I see when a certain mood moves in
She lives in my blood and skin
Her wild feral stare, her dark hair
Her winter lips as cold as stone
Yeah, I was her man
But there are some things even love won’t allow
I held her hand but I don’t hold it now
I don’t know why and I don’t know how
But she’s nobody’s baby now

This is her dress that I loved best
With the blue quilted violets across the breast
And these are my many letters
Torn to pieces by her long-fingered hand
I was her cruel-hearted man
And though I’ve tried to lay her ghost down
She’s moving through me, even now
I don’t know why and I don’t know how
But she’s nobody’s baby now

Muse - Unintended

You could be my unintended
Choice to live my life extended
You could be the one I'll always love
You could be the one who listens to my deepest inquisitions
You could be the one I'll always love

I'll be there as soon as I can
But I'm busy mending broken pieces of the life I had before

First there was the one who challenged
All my dreams and all my balance
She could never be as good as you

You could be my unintended
Choice to live my life extended
You should be the one I'll always love

I'll be there as soon as I can
But I'm busy mending broken pieces of the life I had before

I'll be there as soon as I can
But I'm busy mending broken pieces of the life I had before

Before you...

Anneke van Giersbergen & Agua De Annique - The World

Are you not in love with what you do?
Are you not aware of what you are capable of?
Are we just a victim of ourselves?
Shall we turn around and make it better?

The world is on a verge,
We heal our wounds.
The world is on a verge,
We heal our wounds.

Is it that you hardly know her name?
Is it that you long for something better than this?
Is it that we just forgot ourselves?
Can we turn around and make it better?

The season of rising soul,
I lead as a lying soul,
I preach as a mighty soul.
What is surprise at all?
The season of rising soul,
I lead as a lying soul,
I preach as a mighty soul.
What is surprise at all?

 Do you stand behind all that you say?
Does it metter if you will be ready or not?
We are going out in other way.
We are going to change and make it better.
The season of rising soul,
I lead as a lying soul,
I preach as a mighty soul.
What is surprise at all?
The season of rising soul,
I lead as a lying soul,
I preach as a mighty soul.
What is surprise at all?

Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds - God Is In The House

We’ve laid the cables and the wires
We’ve split the wood and stoked the fires
We’ve lit our town so there is no
Place for crime to hide
Our little church is painted white
And in the safety of the night
We all go quiet as a mouse
For the word is out
God is in the house
God is in the house
God is in the house
No cause for worry now
God is in the house

Moral sneaks in the White House
Computer geeks in the school house
Drug freaks in the crack house
We don’t have that stuff here
We have a tiny little Force
But we need them of course
For the kittens in the trees
And at night we are on our knees
As quiet as a mouse
For God is in the house
God is in the house
God is in the house
And no one’s left in doubt
God is in the house

Homos roaming the streets in packs
Queer bashers with tyre-jacks
Lesbian counter-attacks
That stuff is for the big cities
Our town is very pretty
We have a pretty little square
We have a woman for a mayor
Our policy is firm but fair
Now that God is in the house
God is in the house
God is in the house
Any day now He’ll come out
God is in the house

Well-meaning little therapists
Goose-stepping twelve-stepping Tetotalitarianists
The tipsy, the reeling and the drop down pissed
We got no time for that stuff here
Zero crime and no fear
We’ve bred all our kittens white
So you can see them in the night
And at night we’re on our knees
As quiet as a mouse
Since the word got out
From the North down to the South
For no-one’s left in doubt
There’s no fear about
If we all hold hands and very quietly shout
Hallelujah
God is in the house
God is in the house
Oh I wish He would come out
God is in the house

U2 - Seconds

Takes a second to say goodbye, say goodbye
Takes a second to say goodbye, say goodbye
Oh, oh, oh, say bye-bye.
Where you going to now?
Lightning flashes across the sky
East to West, do and die.
Like a thief in the night, see the world by candlelight.
Fall, rise and...
Fall, rise and...

In an apartment on Times Square
You can assemble them anywhere.
Held to ransom, hell to pay
A revolution every day.
U.S.S.R., G.D.R., London, New York, Peking.
It's the puppets, it's the puppets pull the strings, yeah.
Fall, rise and...
Fall, rise and...

Say goodbye, say goodbye
Say goodbye, say goodbye.

It takes a second to say goodbye
Say goodbye, oh, oh, oh.
Push the button and pull the plug
Say goodbye, oh, oh, oh.

Fall, rise and...
Fall, rise and...

And they're doing the atomic bomb
Do they know where the dance comes from?
Yes they're doing the atomic bomb
They want you to sing along.

Say goodbye, say goodbye
Say goodbye, say goodbye.

Anna von Hausswolff - Above All

Above all, it remains it remains
Vulnerable, it remains it remains
And they say that all has changed
And from that nothing remains
Once in a while they hang by their lives
But, when the end comes near, cameras on
Will love disappear?
And they say nothing has changed
And from that nothing remains
But as I saw her this night
Her eyes were glooming to find, love and conditions
On dark unfriendly ground

'Cause she's heading for the rooftops
She is running and she can't stop
She is heading for the rooftops
She is running and she can't stop

"Sit by my bed. Don't be scared!" Grandma said
"Read for me, Anna Oh be my bread"
And she whispered: "Oh my dear. Death should not be a fear
So save me this night
Why won't you save me, from this time?
Why won't you save me, from falling down?
Falling down
Falling down
Falling down."

'Cause she's heading for the rooftops. She is running and she can't stop
She is heading for the rooftops
She is running
She is running
She is running
So save her this night
Why won't you save her from this time?
Why won't you save her from falling down

U2 - One [Apollo 440 Remix]

Is it getting better
Or do you feel the same
Will it make it easier on you
Now you got someone to blame
You say one love, one life
When it's one need in the night
It's one love
We get to share it
It leaves you baby
If you don't care for it

Did I disappoint you
Or leave a bad taste in your mouth
You act like you never had love
And you want me to go without
Well it's too late tonight
To drag the past out into the light
We're one but we're not the same
We get to carry each other, carry each other
One

Have you come here for forgiveness
Have you come to raise the dead
Have you come here to play Jesus
To the lepers in your head
Did I ask too much
More than a lot
You gave me nothing
Now it's all I got
We're one but we're not the same
We hurt each other, then we do it again

You say love is a temple
Love a higher law
Love is a temple
Love the higher law
You ask me to enter but then you make me crawl
And I can't be holding on to what you got
When all you got is hurt
One love, one blood, one life
You got to do what you should
One life with each other
Sisters, brothers
One life but we're not the same
We get to carry each other, carry each other
One
One

Making it, making it, making it, making it
High, high, high, high

The Young Gods - September Song

Oh, it's a long, long while from May to December
But the days grow short when you reach September
When the autumn weather turns the leaves to flame
One hasn't got time for the waiting game

Oh, the days dwindle down to a precious few
September, November
And these few precious days I'll spend with you
These precious days I'll spend with you

(originally recorded by Kurt Weill)

Ramones - I Can't Control Myself

I can't stand still cause you've got me goin
Your slacks are low and your hips are showin
I take you girl as you're standing there
Your low cut slacks and your long black hair
Don't want you goin' round with no one else
cause when I'm with you I can't control myself

Defense is down and you've got me shakin
You've got me so that my nerves are breakin
If you got me, I like you girl
Your knees would bend and your hair will curl
You make me move, yeah, like no one else
cause when I'm with you I can't control myself

I've got this feeling that's inside of me
It makes me think of how things used to be
It makes me fell allright
When I'm with you at night and we love

You hold me so with this quick temptation
This kind of feeling could move a nation
And I'm okay when I'm here with you
I do the things that you want me to
But do these things for no one else
'cause when I'm with you I can't control myself

I can't control myself
I can't control myself
I can't control myself
I can't control myself
I can't control myself baby

What if I die
Would you even cry
God knows it's true
I didn't understand you

I've been trying to hide myself from you
I've been trying to run and hide from you

Got no reason to stay

Got no reason to go
Got no reason to stay

The Sisters Of Mercy - Emma

We were together since we were five
She was so pretty
Emma was a star in everyone's eyes
And when she said she'd be a movie queen
Nobody laughed
Her face like an angel
She could be anything

Emmaline
Emma
Emmaline
I'm gonna write your name high on that silver screen
Emmaline
Emma
Emmaline
I'm gonna make you the biggest star this world has ever seen

At seventeen
We were wed
And I worked day and night to earn our daily bread
And every day
Emma would go out searching for that play
That never, ever came her way
And sometimes she come home and she'd be so depressed
I'd hear her crying in the back room and be so distressed
And I'd remember back way when she was five
To the words that used to make Emmaline come alive
It was...

Emma Emmaline
I'm gonna write your name high on that silver screen
Emmaline
Emma Emmaline
I'm gonna make you the biggest star this world has ever seen

It was a cold and dark December night
When I opened up the bedroom door
To find her lying
Still and cold upon the bed
A love letter lying on the bedroom floor
It read,
'Darling I love you
But I just can't keep on living on this dreams no more
I've tried so very hard not to leave you alone
But I just can't keep on trying no more'

Ahh Emma
Emmaline
Ahh Emma
Emmaline
Ahh Emma
Noooooo
Ahh Emma
Noooooooooooo

The Gift - Five Minutes of Everything

Give me please five minutes of everything
Those days when you wake up
And there's no one by your side
My arm slides slowly to my left side
And to my right side, there's no one there
To kiss you or to hear you
And you go out of bed
Thinking in those days that you need
You used to talk and talk about
And everything that stops your attention
You used to talk, talk about
Everything
Those days when you walk at the bar
And try to keep a conversation with somebody else
And no one out there you could sit down or walk
There's no one there
Five minutes of love
Five minutes of hate
Five minutes I try to call your name
Five minutes of passion
And no one knows the right place to go
No meaning or just self-control maybe
And you walk out of there
You need to talk with somebody else
And to know the problems are waiting for
Outside the door
Are waiting for
The clock won't stop
And even if it stops
Five minutes of love
Five minutes of hate
Five minutes I try to call your name
Of passion
Five minutes of everything
Of everything
Maybe you want to talk about old questions
Right next to my ear
But I don't care about those silly things
Cause all I need is five minutes of everything

The Raconteurs - Hands

Girl you got those hands that heal
Help me get in touch with what I feel
'Cause you understand and you sympathize
And you know me best it's no surprise

When you're with me there's a light and I can see my way
When you speak to me it's a song and I know what to say

Girl you got those eyes that see
Help me find the good that's inside me
'Cause you're the only one who really knows
How the feeling comes and why it goes

When you're with me there's a light and I can see my way
When you speak to me it's a song and I know what to say

When you're with me there's a light and I can see my way
When you speak to me it's a song and I know what to say

When you listen there's a hope and I know I'm being heard
When you smile at me and I know and we don't have to speak a word

When you're with me there's a light and I can see my way
When you speak to me it's a song and I know what to say

Peter Murphy - The Scarlet Thing In You

From the world to the dreaming fields of light
Yeah from the soaking mud
Gonna fly up to the sky
To the scarlet thing in you
On a long lost ocean wave of light
Submerged and unafraid

I saw you
You were one
I saw you
You were one

No way back to recall the way
Cause I threw out all the why's
Spinning with the spider in the cave
Found the scarlet thing in you
Where the birds can't reach
No words can teach
Spinning in the cave
For the scarlet thing in you

I saw you, you saw me

I saw you
You were the one
I saw you
You were one

Spinning in the cave
For the scarlet thing in you

Nick Cave and The Bad Seeds - Bright Horses

The bright horses have broken free from the fields
They are horses of love, their manes full of fire
They are parting the cities, those bright burning horses
And everyone is hiding, no one makes a sound
And I’m by your side and I’m holding your hand
Bright horses of wonder springing from your burning hand

And everyone has a heart and it’s calling for something
And we are all so sick and tired of seeing things as they are
Horses are just horses and their manes aren’t full of fire
And the fields are just fields and there ain’t no Lord
And everyone is hidden and everyone is cruel
And there is no shortage of tyrants and no shortage of fools
And the little white shape dancing at the end of the hall
Is just a wish that time can’t dissolve at all

This world is plain to see
It don’t mean we can’t believe
In something and any way
My baby’s coming back now
On the next train
I can hear the whistle blowing
I can hear the mighty roar
I can hear the horses prancing
In the pastures of the Lord
Oh the train is coming
And I’m standing here to see
And it’s bringing my baby
Right back to me
Well there are some things
That are hard to explain
But my baby’s coming home now
On the 5.30 train

Pixies - Long Rider

Have you seen my Desiree?
She rides the sea of silver gray
You'll find her at the end of summer's day

The waves were high and crystal clean
If I were you and you were me
We would do the same as Desiree
Just slay it

Long Rider in the morning tide
She took the highway to the county line
She wiped out in the modern sense
Take it away now

Long Rider in the morning tide
She took the highway to the county line
She wiped out in the modern sense
Take it away now

I believe in Miki Dora "Da Cat"
I believe in Whitey, Greenough and Nat
I believe in Leonard, Peanuts and Yan
I believe, I believe
I believe, I believe
I believe, I believe

Have you seen my Desiree?
She rides the wave of silver gray
Just slay it

Long rider in the morning tide
She took the highway to the county line
She wiped out in the modern sense
Take it away now

Long Rider in the morning tide
Took the highway to the county line
She wiped out in the modern sense
Take it away now

Long Rider in the morning tide
Took the highway to the county line
She wiped out in the modern sense
Just slay it

Lana Del Rey - The Greatest

I miss Long Beach and I miss you, babe
I miss dancing with you the most of all
I miss the bar where the Beach Boys would go
Dennis's last stop before Kokomo

Those nights were on fire
We couldn't get higher
We didn't know that we had it all
But nobody warns you before the fall

I'm wasted
Don't leave, I just need a wake-up call
I'm facing the greatest
The greatest loss of them all
The culture is lit and I've had a ball
I guess I'm signing off after all

I miss New York and I miss the music
Me and my friends, we miss rock 'n' roll
I want shit to feel just like it used to
And, baby, I was doing nothing the most of all

The culture is lit
And if this is it
I had a ball
I guess that I'm burned out after all

Oh I'm wasted
Don't leave, I just need a wake-up call
I'm facing the greatest
The greatest loss of them all
The culture is lit and I've had a ball
But I guess that I'm burned out after all

If this is it, I'm signing off
Miss doing nothing the most of all
Hawaii just missed a fireball
LA's in flames, it's getting hot
Kanye West is blond and gone
Life on Mars ain't just a song
I hope the lifestream's almost on

TOOL - Pneuma

We are spirit
Bound to this flesh
We go around one foot nailed down
We're bound to reach out and beyond
This flesh become Pneuma

We are will and wonder
Bound to recall, remember
(We are born of)
One breath, one word
(We are all)
One spark, sun becoming

Child, wake up
Child, release
The light
Wake up now, child, wake up
Child, release
The light
Wake up now, child

(Spirit)
(Spirit)
(Spirit)
(Spirit)

Bound to this flesh
This guise, this mask, this dream
Wake up, remember
(We are born of)
One breath, one word
(We are all)
One spark, sun becoming

Pneuma
Reach out and beyond
Wake up, remember
(We are born of)
One breath, one word
(We are all)
One spark, eyes full of wonder

Kaiser Chiefs - Don't Just Stand There, Do Something

She were lying in the bathroom
I was banging on the door
She was crying in a puddle
On the laminate floor
I was screaming out, "Let me in
You've had too much gin
You better come out or I'm kicking it in"
The door unlocked, my heart stopped
I froze, and she said

Don't just stand, don't just stand there
Don't just stand there, do something
Don't just stand, don't just stand there
Don't just stand there, do something
Do something

The 24-hour garage
And it's in my hand
As a telephone it's average
But it's worth a grand
A gang of youth
Started throwing abuse
Your money or your Nikes, do I have to choose?
All pride lost, stood in my socks
I froze, and I thought

Don't just stand, don't just stand there
Don't just stand there, do something
Don't just stand, don't just stand there
Don't just stand there, do something
Do something

It would be useful if you knew
That everything you say and do
Potentially could change tomorrow
And if you're all still sleeping there
Without the power, without a care
Don't mention me when your alarm goes, yeah

Life is just a beer garden
A sunny afternoon
There's always one drunk hard man
Singing out of tune
A plastic chair flies through the air
The lager tops go everywhere
The jukebox clicks, a record sticks
And we froze, everybody sang

Don't just stand, don't just stand there
Don't just stand there, do something
Don't just stand, don't just stand there
Don't just stand there, do something

It would be useful if you knew
That everything you say and do (do something)
Potentially could change tomorrow (do something)
And if you're all still sleeping there
Without the power, without a care (do something)
Don't mention me when your alarm goes
Off

The Raconteurs - Shine The Light On Me

Ooh
Ooh, what can you do?
Ooh, what does it prove love
New love
Comes so, what can you do?

When you're searching in the dark
It doesn't matter if you're blind does it?
Can't you see?
That even lightning's just a spark
But it's so enlightening when you need to
Shine the light on me

Ooh what can you do now?
Ooh if only we knew?
Ooh what does it prove love
New love
Comes so, what can you do?

My hands are colder when you're gone
It makes it hard to play the notes I write
To warm your mind
And nothing's colder than a song
That's never played in a pile of papers
Left behind

And only God can know
How the story goes
Over, and over again
But we don't need to know
How the flowers grow
Let's just be happy they can

When you're searching in the dark
It doesn't matter if you're blind does it?
Can't you see?
That even lightning's just a spark
But it's so enlightening when you need to
Shine the light on me

Ooh what can we do?
Ooh what can we do?
Shine the light on me
Ooh what can we do?
Shine the light on me
Ooh what can we do?
Ooh what can we do?
Shine the light on me
Ooh what can we do?
Shine the light on me
Ooh what can we do?
Shine the light on me
Ooh what can we do?

Chelsea Wolfe - Preface To A Dream Play

Preface to a dream play
Time and space do not exist here
And everything is possible
Throw a spear into the unknown
The clock hands begin to melt away
Replaced by the marching of your army

You were right
You were right

Those were the days
When your hair was wild and long
Those were the days
When we could do no harm
You gave it away and all you can say is
You gave it away and all you can say is

You were right
You were right
You were right

Hell is on earth
Hell is on earth
Hell is on earth

U2 - When I Look At The World

When you look at the world
What is it that you see?
People find all kinds of things
That bring them to their knees
I see an expression
So clear and so true
That it changes the atmosphere
When you walk into the room

So I try to be like you
Try to feel it like you do
But without you it's no use
I can't see what you see
When I look at the world

When the night is someone elses
And you're trying to get some sleep
When your thoughts are too expensive
To ever want to keep
When there's all kinds of chaos
And everyone is walking lame
You don't even blink now, do you
Or even look away

So I try to be like you
Try to feel it like you do
But without you it's no use
I can't see what you see
When I look at the world

I can't wait any longer
I can't wait till I'm stronger
Can't wait any longer
To see what you see
When I look at the world

I'm in the waiting room
Can't see for the smoke
I think of you and your holy book
While the rest of us choke

Tell me, tell me, what do you see?
Tell me, tell me, what's wrong with me

White Lies - Come Down

I felt loved last night for the first time in a long time
It feels like coming home to stay
Like falling in the sea when it's too hot in the sun
But made things so much worse today

I know you said you'll miss me
But I know that you won't
Because time is like a wave
That washes all the pain away
When you come down

I know I said I'll see you
When it gets to New Year
But now that all the rain's stopped falling
All I think is getting out of here

I felt loved last night for the first time in a long time
It feels like I never went away
Like drifting back to sleep
When I'm aching and I'm tired
But made me feel so much worse today

I know you said you'll miss me
But I know that you won't
Because time is like a wave
That washes all the pain away
When you come down

I know I said I'll see you
When it gets to New Year
But now that all the rain's stopped falling
All I think is getting out of here

I know I'de be welcome but tell me how far
Ceremonial knocks
Sounds the gaps in my heartbeat
And I'll never be good enough for you or for me
I've buried my pride
I've buried my key

I know I'de be welcome but tell me how far
Ceremonial knocks
Sounds the gaps in my heartbeat
And I'll never be good enough for you or for me
I've buried my pride
I've buried my key

I know you said you'll miss me
But I know that you won't
Because time is like a wave
That washes all the pain away
When you come down

I know I said I'll see you
When it gets to New Year
But now that all the rain's stopped falling
All I think is getting out of here

The Doors - Unhappy Girl

Unhappy girl
Left all alone
Playing solitaire
Playing warden to your soul
You are locked in a prison
Of your own devise
And you can't believe
What it does to me
To see you
Crying

Unhappy girl
Tear your web away
Saw thru all your bars
Melt your cell today
You are caught in a prison
Of your own devise

Unhappy girl
Fly fast away
Don't miss your chance
To swim in mystery
You are dying in a prison
Of your own device

Megadeth - Built For War

Built for war, what do you think your fists are for? Built for war!

Listen, I didn't start this - believe me, I will finish it...
You called down the thunder - too late now there's no way out...
Nothing is gonna stop me - until then better watch your back...

Built for war, what do you think your fists are for? Built for war!

There is no retreating - I will cut you down to size...
You will beg for mercy - a bad seed, you're as good as dead...
Yield to new dimension - Hell's coming, better say your prayers...

Built for war, what do you think your fists are for? Built for war!
Built for war, are you looking at me, you want some more?
What do you think your fists are for?

One day you will face me - and see the terror trapped inside...
Final retribution - torture and pure punishment...
Vengeance running so deep - a dungeon of agony awaits...
Fear not as death surrounds you - Bitch all you want, but here it comes...

Built for war, what do you think your fists are for? Built for war!
Built for war, are you looking at me, you want some more?
What do you think your fists are for?

The Clash - Something About England

Emma Ruth Rundle - Fever Dreams

Fear, a feeling, is it real? So nostalgic too, it just puts the dark on you
another sand down, the hands of oil are peeling,
and from the sun, restraint to just throw the shade on you
another cell now is a chance to, is attempt to, and is trying to recall
but you’re never going to touch me
and if I ever manage to get out, it’s all this waking life - just drags me down

a life spent uneasy, in pieces always in pieces here
a life rent completely, release me away from fever dreams

Fear, a friend, without context it’s reeling - you’re never going to pay enough to do right
the veil is a thread and now it’s raising like the tension of a string that just plays the note high
and if I ever really make it out it’s all this waking world that drags me down

a life spent uneasy, in pieces, always in pieces here
a life left - release me away from fever dreams

you're sleeping in the glass room, in the glass house- is a memory now
is a memory to me
don’t you know this shift is real?
you move to lay your body down, the hands of oil are like some small machines
never knowing how to feel, pushing air inside your tired mind and sleeping it
trapped in fever dreams

a life spent uneasy, in pieces, always in pieces here
a life rent out completely, release me away from fever dreams
