R.E.M. - Old Man Kensey

Old Man Kensey wants to be a sign painter
First he's got to learn to read
He's gonna be a clown on TV.
Flags at his elbow, time to breath
(That's my folly) I believe

Drink up the lake, Kensey's away
(That's my folly) That's my mistake

Old Man Kensey wants to be a goalie
First he's got to learn to count
He's gonna be a clown on a circus mount
Letters to me signed in sopped up tar
(That's my folly) Kensey's going far

John, Bill and Ted, stand on your head
(That's my folly) I'm ready to go

Old Man Kensey wants to be a dog catcher
First he's got to learn to stand
He's gonna be a clown in a marching band
Letters to me signed ransom greed
(That's my folly) I believe

Drink up the lake, John, Bill and Ted,
(That's my folly) That's my mistake
Kensey's away, stand on your head
(That's my folly) I'm ready to go

Smashing Pumpkins - Schaudenfreud

Like the lion, I will track our rulers
Into the cracks of this earth
'Twixt the field and the foal, unaided
Yet spun with the toil of an oath

Three days unknown, two days agone
I'm harvest more than guide
Isidore was right

Forgotten, familiar
Find your light
Fain autumns, winter side
Find your light, find your light
Mark the hurt, mark the face
Mark the dirt of cloven graves
Find your light
Forgotten, familiar
Find your light

As the bull on the wheel, I follow
Stubborn, with downcast eyes
'Round the hills of our lord and hollows
In sacrifice of his own

Three days unknown, two days agone
I'm shadow more than guide
Isidore was right

Forgotten, familiar
Find your light
Fain autumns, winter side
Find your light, find your light
Mark the coil, mark the reed
Mark the piper, go to sleep
Find your light
Forgotten, familiar
Find your light
Find your light

Smashing Pumpkins - Galapogos

ain't it funny how we pretend we're still a child
softly stolen under our blanket skies
and rescue me from me, and all that i believe
i won't deny the pain
i won't deny the change
and should i fall from grace here with you
will you leave me too?
carve out your heart for keeps in an old oak tree
and hold me for goodbyes-and-whispered lullabyes
and tell me i am still
the man i'm supposed to be
i won't deny the pain
i won't deny the change
and should i fall from grace here with you
will you leave me too?
too late to turn back now, i'm running out of sound
and i am changing, changing
and if we died right now, this fool you love somehow
is here with you
i won't deny the pain
i won't deny the change
and should i fall from grace here with you
would you leave me too?

Lamb - What Sound

What is that sound
Ringing in my ears
The strangest sound
I've heard for years and years
The sound of two hearts
Beating side by side
The sound of one love
That neither one can hide
The sound that makes the world go round
The sound that makes the world go round

What is that sound
Running round my head
Funny I thought
That part was long since dead
But now there is new life
Coursing through my veins
Because there's someone
Who makes it beat again

The sound that makes the world go round
The sound that makes the world go round
The sound that makes the world go round
The sound that makes the world go round
What is that sound
Ringing in my ears
The strangest sound
I've heard for years and hears
The sound of two hearts
Beating side by side
The sound of one love
That neither one can hide

Megadeth - When

No hears a word I say
And my prayers are never answered
But you'll never see the pain inside of me
Stabbing me over and over and over
I trusted you and I loved you
And you spit back in my face
How could you do this to me?
When will you stop trying to hurt me?
I've walked a minefield for you
A career in hell with you
I have made it through the things
Others would surely die just watching
And the oath I take on this day
Is to know that you will be repaid
One day the the sun will die and the night will crawl
Until then, until I see your world implode
I wish you death and suffering
Misery to spare
Time to release your pain
Face the last enemy
I am the last thing you will know
The last thing you will see
I see your death surrounding me
I know you, yes I do
I know you

When no words are spoken and pleas are ignored
Your tears go unnoticed, will you say enough?
When prayers are unanswered and your calls are unheard
The pain cuts right through you, have you seen enough?

It all seems so deceitful and the verdict is lies
A black cloud of indecision compromised your life

When judgement has failed you
When your own heart's impaled you
Your wandering mind has destroyed you
Will you ever know when?

When you give everything and the feeling is gone
All the giving is fake, did you fake enough?
When you take everything and you stay too long
When there's nothing left, did you take enough?

It all seems so deceitful and the verdict is lies
A black cloud of indecision compromised your life

When judgement has failed you
When your own heart's impaled you
Your wandering mind has destroyed you
Will you ever know when?

U2 - Desert Of Our Love

Yeah
Like it

Hand of gold and hot day
In the door and out again
The devil in the night
I feel love’s alright

Hey
Going in the cold and going in the same
Born in the love with the light again
I believe in the love
I’m up again

(Alright, hm)
Uh, uh, uh

Come in there, darkest lovin’
All alone, darkest night
And yeah I’m real good, ha, ha
I feel love in the song and
One more verse
Mm-ha-ha

Be in the door in the desert
Be in the morning I am
I’m in the veil in the doorway to love
C’mon feeling in the stars and the love, believe it

All the love, all in the day
Feeling in the power of your love, say
All the day, all the day
I’m gonna be in the guard of the sky
Oh yeah

Alright
And in the desert of our love
And in the desert of our love
And the feeling in the sand
Ah when the poor man then
Mm yeah-ha

Go in the door, the door is real
His door
And there inside

Chorus, yeah

Anna von Hausswolff - Sun Rise

Did you know the perfect life?
Did you get too much of it?
Can you hear the people sigh?
Whoa...
Do you know I'm alright?
Whoa...
Did you get her number right?
Whoa...
Did you miss the sun rise?
Whoa...
Can you see the river shine?
Whoa...
But can you feel the charm in it?
Whoa...
The men are walking by
Whoa...
But can you see them smile?
Whoa...
Is evergreen good smelling trees?
Whoa...
Can you smell me by now?
Whoa...
Seeing through a crack of life
Whoa...
Did you get it all right?

Iron Maiden - Tailgunner

Trace your way back 50 years
To the Glow of Dresden - blood and tears
In the black above by the cruel searchlight
Men will die and men will fight - yeah!
Who shot who and who fired first?
Dripping death to whet the bloodthirst
No radar lock on - skin and bone
The bomber boys are going home

Climb into the sky never wonder why - Tailgunner
You're a Tailgunner
Climb into the sky never wonder why - Tailgunner
You're a Tailgunner

Nail that Fokker kill that son,
Gonna blow your guts out with my gun,
The weather forecasts good for War
Cologne and Frankfurt? have some more!
Tail end Charlie in the boiling sky
The Enola Gay was my last try
Now that this Tailgunner's gone
No more Bombers (just one big bomb)

Climb into the sky never wonder why - Tailgunner
You're a Tailgunner
Climb into the sky never wonder why - Tailgunner
You're a Tailgunner

Blur - Sticks And Stones

Chaos on a Friday
I tip-tow by
No need to get excited
I step outside
Smooth exterior
Mess inside
Fight the inferior
Across city lines

It's written over my face
No sleep zone
Open up my suitcase
Sticks and stones

Iron filings
Breathe 'em right in
Catch my breath
Air too thin
Floating in the darkness (floating in the darkness)
Talking to the ghosts (talking to the ghosts)
The ones that want you dead (the ones that want you dead)
Are the ones you love the most

It's written over my face
No sleep zone
Open up my suitcase
Sticks and stones
Sticks and stones
Breaking bones

Why do I want to be released
You're the past, not the future

It's written over my face
No sleep zone
Open up my suitcase
Sticks and stones

The Cure - Endsong [Mogwai Remix]

And I'm outside in the dark staring at the blood red moon
Remembering the hopes and dreams I had and all I had to do
And wondering what became of that boy and the world he called his own
I'm outside in the dark wondering how I got so old

It's all gone, it's all gone
Nothing left of all I loved
It all feels wrong
It's all gone, it's all gone, it's all gone
No hopes, no dreams, no world
No I, I don't belong
I don't belong here

It's all gone, it's all gone
I will lose myself in time
It won't be long
It's all gone, it's all gone, it's all gone

Left alone with nothing, the end of every song
Left alone with nothing, the end of every song
Left alone with nothing
Nothing
Nothing
Nothing
