Muse - Won't Stand Down

I never believed that I would concede and let someone trample on me
You strung me along, I thought I was strong, but you were just gaslighting me
I’ve opened my eyes, & counted the lies, & now it is clearer to me
You are just a user, and an abuser, living vicariously

I never believed that I would concede and get myself blown asunder
You strung me along, I thought I was strong, but now you have pushed me under
I’ve opened my eyes, and counted the lies, now it is clearer to me
You are just a user, and an abuser, and I refuse to take it

Won’t stand down
I’m growing stronger
Won’t stand down
I’m owned no longer
Won’t stand down
You’ve used me for too long, now die alone

Now I’m coming back, a counterattack, I’m playing you at your own game
I’m cutting you out, a shadow of doubt
Is gonna hang over your name
I’ve opened my eyes, I see your disguise,
I will never see you the same
I know how to win, before you begin
I’ll shoot you before you take aim

Now I’m coming back, a counterattack,
A psychological war
I’m cutting you in, I’m under your skin
Now I’m gonna settle the score
I’ve opened my eyes, I see your disguise,
I will never see you the same
I know how to win, before you begin
I’ll shoot you before you take aim

Won’t stand down
I’m growing stronger
Won’t stand down
I’m owned no longer
Won’t stand down
You’ve used me for too long, now die alone

Won’t stand down
I’m growing stronger
Won’t stand down
I’m owned no longer
Won’t stand down
You’ve used me for too long, now die alone

Kasabian - ALCHEMIST

Trying to get away from
The burning in my head
Water hits the rocks
Tide came in

Slow hallucination
Starlights on the sea
I don't wanna stop
Take me too

To a time that we all could believe in
Shut the door on your way if you're leaving
All we heard was the sound of the guns
Just can't take it, take it no more

I was down for the count, needed healing
All the cuts to my heart, they were bleeding
All the words that I want you to say
Just can't take it, take it no more

In my head, I saw no way before
Try to runaway, don't wanna wait no more
The light behind your eyes still shines on, on
This time

And I don't understand the words I hear
After all we've got to let go of the things we fear
And the light behind your eyes still shines on

This time
This time
My time
My time

(The light behind your eyes still shines on, on)

Trying to get away from
The burning in my head
Water hits the rocks
Water hits the rocks
Water hits the rocks
Water hits the rocks
Water hits the rocks
Water hits the rocks

R.E.M. - 7 Chinese Bros.

This mellow, sweet, short-haired boy, woman offers pull up a seat
Take in one symphony now, we've just begun to battle
Wrap your heel in bones of steel, turn the leg, a twist of color
Autumn waited hold it to you in the colored come another

Seven Chinese brothers swallowing the ocean
Seven thousand years to sleep away the pain
She will return, she will return

This mellow, sweet, short-haired boy, woman offers pull up a seat
Take in one symphony now, we've just begun to battle
Wrap your heel in bones of steel, turn the leg, a twist of color
Autumn waded seven seas swimming colored come another

Seven Chinese brothers swallowing the ocean
Seven thousand years to sleep away the pain
She will return, she will return

This mellow, sweet, short-haired boy, woman offers pull up a chair
Take in one symphony now, I guess we lost that battle
Wrap your heel in bones of steel, turn the leg, a twist of color
Autumn waded seven seas swimming colored come another

Seven Chinese brothers swallowing the ocean
Seven thousand years the Communi did reign
She will return, she will return

PJ Harvey & John Parish - The Soldier

I imagine a dream in which I'm a soldier
And I'm walking on the faces
Of dead women and everyone I've
Left behind me it's the year when
The troops entered the thirty-ninth
Thirty-ninth parallel

Send me home restless send me home damaged
And wanting

It's the year when some poet said
"We must live, or accept the consequences"
I want you to share every pinprick of guilt
That I have felt that I have felt

Send me home restless send me home damaged
Some me home dispossessed
Send me home damaged and wanting

St. Vincent - The Neighbors

Sister say a prayer for us one we learned from nuns and such
I won't believe not a word you speak just make it sweet to hear
Let's pour wine in coffee cups and drive around the neighborhood
And shine the headlights on houses until all the news is good

Oh no! What would your mother say?
Oh no! What would your father do?
Oh no! What would the neighbors think?
Oh no!

How am I supposed to sleep? Roaming blackouts on the streets
Oh not a word, not another speech, we'll run the headlights down
These kids are foaming at the mouth, psychotropic capricorns
Tomorrow's some kind of Strangerland where all the news is good

Oh no! What would your mother say?
Oh no! What would your father do?
Oh no! What would the neighbors think?
Oh no! If they only knew, knew

How can Monday be alright, then on Tuesday lose my mind?
Tomorrow's some kind of stranger who I'm not supposed to see

Oh no! What would your mother say?
Oh no! What would your father do?
Oh no! What would the neighbors think?
Oh no! If they only knew, knew

Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds - Deanna

O DEANNA
O Deanna!
O DEANNA
Sweet Deanna!
O DEANNA
You know you are my friend, yeah
O DEANNA
And I ain’t down here for your money
I ain’t down here for your love
I ain’t down here for you love or money
I’m down here for you soul

No carpet on the floor
And the winding-cloth holds many moths
Around your Ku Klux furniture
I cum a deaths-head in your frock
We discuss the murder pact
We discuss murder and the murder act
Murder takes the wheel of the Cadillac
And death climbs in the back

O DEANNA
This is a car
O DEANNA
This is a gun
O DEANNA
And this a day number one
O DEANNA
Our little crimeworn histories Black and smoking Xmas trees And honey, it ain’t a mystery Why you’re a mystery to me

We will eat out of their pantries
And their parlours
Ashy leavings in their beds
And we’ll unload into their heads
On this mean season
This little angel that I squeezin’
She ain’t been mean to me

O DEANNA
O Deanna!
O DEANNA
You are my friend and my partner
O DEANNA
On this house on the hill
O DEANNA
And I ain’t down here for your money
I ain’t down here for your love
I ain’t down here for your love or money
I’m down here for your soul

O DEANNA
I am a-knocking
O DEANNA
With my toolbox and my stocking
O DEANNA
And I’ll meet you on the corner
O DEANNA
Yes, you point it like a finger
O DEANNA
And squeeze it’s little thing
O DEANNA
Feel it’s kick, hear its bang
And lets not worry about its issue
Don’t worry about where its been
And don’t worry about where it hits
Cause it ain’t yours to sin

O DEANNA
No it just ain’t yours to sin
O DEANNA
Sweet Deanna
O DEANNA
And we ain’t getting any younger
O DEANNA
And I don’t intend gettin’ any older
O DEANNA
The sun a hump at my shoulder
O DEANNA
O Deanna!
O DEANNA
Sweet Deanna
O DEANNA
And I ain’t down here for your money
I ain’t down here for your love
I ain’t down here for your love of money
I’m down here for your soul

U2 - Babyface

Catching your bright blue eyes in the freeze frame
I've seen them so many times
I feel like I must be your best friend.
You're looking fine, so fine
Dressed up like a lovely day.

Babyface, Babyface
Slow down child, let me untie your lace.
Babyface, Babyface
Cover girl with natural grace.
How could beauty be so kind
To an ordinary guy?

Comin' home late at night to turn you on
Checkin' out every frame,
I've got slow motion on my side.
Turnin' around and around
With the sound and colour under my control
Round and around, goin' down,
Dressed up like a lovely day.

Babyface, Babyface
Slow down child, let me untie your lace
Babyface, Babyface
Tinfoil hair all tied up in lace
Babyface, Babyface
Bitter-sweet girl, won't you give me a taste
How could beauty be so kind
To an ordinary guy?

Babyface, Babyface
Slow down child, let me untie your lace.
Babyface, Babyface
Open that door, let me unpack my case.
Babyface, Babyface
You're everywhere, child, you're all over the place.
Babyface, Babyface
You're comin' to me from outer space.
How could beauty be so kind
To an ordinary guy?

The Jesus And Mary Chain - jamcod

The monkey's organ grinder
Isn't grinding anymore
And I can't shake the feeling
That I've seen this dream before
Fucking up and then falling down
But it punts me to the door
And I can't see the ceiling
'Cause I'm face down on the floor

Tears are what you want
Tears are what you've got

There must be an answer
To the question I don't know
It's too close to midnight
And there has to be no show
Breaking up and then falling down
And my heart beats much too slow
Best notify the other brother
There's no place to go

Tears are what you want
Tears are what you've got

Vegetable, mineral
Animal, I don't know
What you want, what you need
I've become recently deceased

A recently deceased
A recently deceased
A recently deceased
A House of Blues blue
A cocaine and disabled

Black Rebel Motorcycle Club - Sell It

I’m mad gonna sell it on a t-shirt
I’m living out a borrowed age
I got god I got the medication
I got enough make it all go away
Got blood on the mirror boy
Got blood on the empty page
Got blood on the mirror boy
Got blood on the empty page
I got god I got the imitation
I got the will make it all ok
It’s all wrong, wrong intention
I got mine from an empty faith
I’m not proud to proud of it
I ain’t proud to proud of it
I’m not proud to proud of it
But I’m fine just fine with it
It’s not enough to carry us over
It’s not enough make it all go away
It’s not enough to keep me from believing
It’s not enough make it all ok
I’m mad I don’t wanna be right
Let it outright take you away
Get it I got it on the run and I’ll sell it with you
Get it I got it on the run and I’ll sell it with you
One more taste is all it takes
Then you bled me gone
I’m death at the lights hesitation
I got a right just to give it away
I got a mean reputation
I got the dope and the black tar veins
I’m not proud to proud of it
I ain’t proud to proud of it
I’m not proud to proud of it
But I’m fine just fine with it
It’s not enough to carry me over
It’s not enough make it all go away

I’m mad I don’t wanna be right
Let it outright take you away

PJ Harvey - Driving [4-Track Demo version]

Tell him I'm driving, it's alright
Turn on this wheel
Turn on headlights
A hundred different bibles by my side
In my white gown
I go flying down
Oh my eyes, it cannot be,; He said no, it cannot be
All that time, it cannot be,; Easy said, it cannot be
The ghosts fly their asses off tonight
I'm just driving till it dies
Tell him I'm driving, it's alright
You tell him that I had a skin full
You tell him that I couldn't sit still
Imagine your whole self is filled with light
Your voice ringing out
Through the whole fucking town
Oh my eyes, it cannot be ; He said no, it cannot be
All that time, it cannot be ; Oh my eyes, it cannot be
You tell him I'm driving
You tell him I'm driving
You tell him I'm driving
You tell him I'm driving

Smashing Pumpkins - Beguiled

So swallow hard the serpent
Of many tags and faces hid in masks
Coiled ‘round this lung until the last
He’ll crack your boots young pagans
‘Cause like you I was hatched to traipse on cold
And 17’s a long drawn way from hope

And I’ve learned these lessons I was taught
Taut, so taught
And now I’m telling you

Return the faith
Return the faith
They’re smashing out the veils
Return the faith
And there’s no escape
So return the faith
With charging light brigades
Return the faith
You’ve gotta move

So as betrayed by rainbows
Here I convey I’ve sold out your dear cause
And the king has placed us in his jaws
It’s sure no place can hold us
But in this scene I’m December
And your June’s wretch
And my idyls lay gasping as if death
And I’ve learned these lessons I was taught
Taut, so taught
And now I’m telling you
And I’ve learned these lessons I was taught
Taut, so taught
And now I’m telling you

Return the faith
Return the faith
They’re smashing out the veils
Return the faith
And there’s no escape
So return the faith
With charging light brigades
Return the faith
You’ve gotta move

Return the faith
Return the faith

The Mars Volta - Que Dios Te Maldiga Mi Corazon [Acoustic version]

So many crosses she could nail you to
But I think that this one will do
Dripping initials from rotting fruit
Look in the mirror and say it three times
¿Qué dice el espejo que se cayó?
Alma vítrea
Que dios te maldiga, corazón

Slow the drip down
Una voz desde la niebla oscura
Mi cruz al revés lo escondió

Don't block the view
Silhouette of a silhouette
Time stamped
No, nothing of proof
Silhouette dice
Silhouette of his control
Has no one considered he'd run?
Stole your breath when he's got it
This is a silhouette of his control

Yes, it's loaded, that thing is loaded
He'd always leave it in the safe by her portrait
Yes, it's loaded, that thing was loaded
He'd flash it at you with a hint of a smile
Loaded, loaded
She feeds her young by remote
With children who conspire to feast on the world

This Mortal Coil - Drugs

And all I see is little dots
Some are smeared and some are spots
Feels like a murder but that's alright
Somebody said there's too much light
Pull down the shade and it's alright
It'll be over in a minute or two.
I'm charged up...Don't put me down
Don't feel like talking...Don't mess around
I feel mean...I feel O.K.
I'm charged up...Electricity
The boys are making a big mess
This makes the girls all start to laugh
I don't know what they're talking about
The boys are worried, the girls are shocked
They pick the sound and let it drop
Nobody know what they're talking about
I'm charged up...I'm kinda wooden
I'm barely moving...I study motion
I study myself...I fooled myself
I'm charged up...It's pretty intense.
I'm charged up...Don't put me down
Don't feel like talking...Don't mess around
I feel mean...I feel O.K.
I'm charged up...Electricity.

(originally recorded by The Talking Heads)

Chelsea Wolfe - The Liminal

a voice to sing this aloud
let go of limits and doubt
what, did you say all you wanted to say?
did you do all you wanted to do?

all you ever wanted was the liminal
all you ever wanted was the liminal
all you left behind was your exoskeleton
a spectral reminder of all that we’ve become

something tethered me to
time and space in-between
the more you seek the more you’ll see
nothing dies, but nothing thrives
in this world, this world

all you ever wanted was the liminal
all you ever wanted was the liminal
all you left behind was your exoskeleton
a spectral reminder of all that we’ve become

I’m the storm and I’m the center
I’m your poison, I’m your tincture
they wanted me to go down easy
excommunicate myself

I’m the future, I’m the former
I nurtured me, I came back stronger
I’m in your dreams, I’m in your song
now everybody sings along

U2 - 'Baby' One

Is it getting better
Or do you feel the same?
Will it make it easier on you now?
You got someone to blame

You said, one love, one life
When it’s one need in the night
One love, we get to share 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
Well 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
Well 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… (love)
One

Makin’ it, makin’ it, makin’ it
(Air, air, water)

Porridge Radio - Birthday Party

A fear of death, a fear of dying
Why won't the dog pick up the stick?
Panic sweats you wake up crying
Always feeling kind of sick

I want one feeling all the time
I don't want to feel a thing
And if I die then you can keep it
I won't tell you what it means

I don't wanna be loved, I don't wanna be loved
I don't wanna be loved, I don't wanna be loved
I don't wanna be loved, I don't wanna be loved
I don't wanna be loved, I don't wanna be loved
I don't wanna be loved, I don't wanna be loved
I don't wanna be loved, I don't wanna be loved
I don't wanna be loved, I don't wanna be loved
I don't wanna be loved, I don't wanna be loved
I don't wanna be loved

I'm always playing solitaire
I always kiss you on the lips
And if I die, then you can keep it
I don't want to feel a thing

Always on my best behavior
Sometimes I can't hold it in
Always wait until it's over
I don't want to feel a thing

I don't wanna be loved, I don't wanna be loved
I don't wanna be loved, I don't wanna be loved
I don't wanna be loved, I don't wanna be loved
I don't wanna be loved, I don't wanna be loved
I don't wanna be loved, I don't wanna be loved
I don't wanna be loved, I don't wanna be loved
I don't wanna be loved, I don't wanna be loved
I don't wanna be loved, I don't wanna be loved
I don't wanna be loved, I don't wanna be loved

You always liked me for some reason
I don't care about a thing
Are you aware that this is broken?
I don't want to feel a thing

Invite me to your birthday party
Watch me cry across the room
I don't want to be forgotten
I don't want to be alone

A fear of death, a fear of dying
Why won't the dog pick up the stick?
Panic sweats, you wake up crying
Always feeling kind of sick

I want one feeling all the time
I don't want to feel a thing
And if I die, then you can keep it
I won't tell you what it means

I don't wanna be loved, I don't wanna be loved
I don't wanna be loved, I don't wanna be loved
I don't wanna be loved, I don't wanna be loved
I don't wanna be loved, I don't wanna be loved
I don't wanna be loved, I don't wanna be loved
I don't wanna be loved, I don't wanna be loved
I don't wanna be loved, I don't wanna be loved
I don't wanna be loved, I don't wanna be loved
I don't wanna be loved, I don't wanna be loved
I don't wanna be loved, I don't wanna be loved
I don't wanna be loved, I don't wanna be loved
I don't wanna be loved

Eddie Vedder - Long Way

His eyes appear vacant
He’d taken more than his share
Trying hard not to awaken
The voice of regret in his ear
He can’t escape the timeline
So much worse than he had feared
Lived every moment
Wishing the past would disappear

He took the long way
On the freeway
He took the long way
On the freeway

She was his all and everything
But her strenght it needed space
Hеr love was but a haunting
She left but nеver went away

She took the long way
On the freeway
She took the long way
On the freeway
She took the long way
On the freeway
She took the long way
On the freeway

She took the long way
On the freeway
She took the long way
On the freeway
She took the long way
On the freeway
She took the long way
On the freeway
She took the long, long way

Well, it couldn’t be had
What he wanted to hold
He dared to let go
He should of known

She took the long way
On the freeway
She took the long way
On the freeway

U2 - I Threw A Brick Through A Window [Richard Skinner BBC Session - September 1981]

I was talking
I was talking to myself
Somebody else
Talk, talk, talking
I couldn’t hear a word
A word he said

He was my brother, brother
I said there was no other way out of here
Be my brother, brother
I gotta get out, I gotta get out

I was walking
I was walking into walls
And back again
I just keep walking
I walked up to a window
To see myself

In my reflection
And when I thought about it
My direction
You’re going nowhere, going nowhere
Anywhere’s better than this

No one
No, no one is blinder
Than he
Who will not see

I was talking
I was talking in my sleep
Oh I can’t stop
Talk, talk, talking
I’m talking to you
Oh it’s up to you

To be my brother, brother
There is another way out of here
Be my brother, brother
I gotta get out, gotta get out
Out of

Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds - The Carny

And no-one saw the carny go
And the weeks flew by
Until they moved on the show
Leaving his caravan behind
It was parked out on the south east ridge
And as the company crossed the bridge
With the first rain filling the bone-dry river bed
It shone, just so, upon the edge Away, away, we’re sad, they said

Dog-boy, atlas, half-man, the geeks, the hired hands
There was not one among them that did not cast an eye behind
In the hope that the carny would return to his own kind
And the carny had a horse, all skin and bone
A bow-backed nag, that he named “Sorrow”
Now it is buried in a shallow grave In the then parched meadow

And the dwarves were given the task of digging the ditch
And laying the nag’s carcass in the ground
And boss Bellini, waving his smoking pistol around
Saying, “The nag is dead meat”
“We can’t afford to carry dead weight”
The whole company standing about
Not making a sound
And turning to dwarves perched on the enclosure gate
The boss says “Bury this lump of crow bait”

And then the rain came hammering down
Everybody running for their wagons
Tying all the canvas flaps down
The mangy cats growling in their cages
The bird-girl flapping and squawking around
The whole valley reeking of wet beast
Wet beast and rotten hay
Freak and brute creation
Packed up and on their way

The three dwarves peering from their wagon’s hind
Moses says to Noah “We shoulda dugga deepa one”
Their grizzled faces like dying moons
Still dirty from the digging done
And Charlie, the eldest of the three, said
“I guess the carny ain’t gonna show”
And they were silent for a spell
Wishing they’d done a better job of burying Sorrow

And as the company passed from the valley
Into higher ground
The rain beat on the ridge and on the meadow
And on the mound
Until nothing was left, nothing at all
Except the body of Sorrow
That rose in time
To float upon the surface of the eaten soil

And a murder of crows did circle round
First one, then the others flapping blackly down
And the carny’s van still sat upon the edge
Tilting slowly as the firm ground turned to sludge
And the rain it hammered down
And no-one saw the carny go I say it’s funny how things go

Green Day - Dilemma

Welcome to my problems
It’s not an invitation
This is my dilemma
And it’s my obsession

I was sober now I’m drunk again
I’m in trouble and in love again
I don’t want to be a dead man walking
I don’t want to be a dead man walking

Welcome to my nightmare
Where dreams go to disappear
Sit around in rehab
Feeling like a lab rat

Strange days are here again
And it’s getting weirder
Here’s to all my problems
I just want to drink the poison

I was sober now I’m drunk again
I’m in trouble and in love again
I don’t want to be a dead man walking
I don’t want to be a dead man walking

I was sober now I’m drunk again
I’m in trouble and in love again
I don’t want to be a dead man walking
I don’t want to be a dead man walking

Oh, why
When I fall asleep tonight
On the wing
and prayer
Oh, why
For despair and obsession on you
You, yeah

I was sober now I’m drunk again
I’m in trouble and in love again
I don’t want to be a dead man walking
I don’t want to be a dead man walking

I was sober now I’m drunk again
I’m in trouble and in love again
I don’t want to be a dead man walking
I don’t want to be a dead man walking

Interpol - Fables

You're truly erupting too hard
That's why you're a sizeable God
And I am decidedly cold
I ain't taking the fall
I have forsaken you all
I was mistakenly chose
Now I'm mistaking my own
You can't take me

It's time we made something stable
We're in the sights of perfect danger
All is lost to the time beyond fables
And the circular rise of guileless angels
Say all is fine

I'll do it over again
Last time I was drunk in the Seine
Now I'm back drinking again
It was Satan, that's known
This running around without jokes
A boarded up house on the coast
And time is making me broke
You can't take me

It's time we made something stable (something)
We're in the sights of perfect danger (something)
All is lost to the time beyond fables (something)
And the circular rise of guileless angels (something)
Say all is fine, fine (something)
For the sake of time

Come on baby, it was a pleasure to know
You're so amazing

I do it all for the glow
I stand unbearably close
How could you possibly know?
I ain't taking the call (call stop please remember)
I have forsaken you all
I was mistakenly chose
Now I'm just taking my own
You can't make me

It's time we made something stable (something)
We're in the sights of perfect danger (something)
All is lost to the time beyond fables (something)
And the circular rise of guileless angels (something)
All is fine, fine (something)
For the second time

Come on baby, it was a pleasure to know
You're so amazing
Higher, higher than trails of meteors (come on my baby)
Come on baby, it was a pleasure to know
You're so amazing
Higher beyond the flames of meteors
Come on baby, it was a pleasure to know
You're so crazy
Higher, higher than tails of meteors

U2 - Stories For Boys

There's a place I go
When I am far away.
There's a T.V. show
And I can play.

Sometimes when a hero takes me
Sometimes I don't let go
Oh, oh, oh.

There's a picture book
With colour photographs
There's a comic strip
That makes me laugh

Sometimes away he takes me
Sometimes I don't let go.

Stories for boys
Stories for boys

Stories for boys.

There's a place I go
And it's a part of me
There's a radio
And I will go

Sometimes a hero takes me
Sometimes I don't let go.

Stories for boys
Stories for boys
Stories for boys

Explosions In The Sky - Loved Ones

...

The National feat. Rosanne Cash - Crumble

If you say that it's true
But you don't know what to do
And it's only because you love me

If you tell me that you're sure
And it can't wait anymore
And it's only because you love me

I... I'm gonna crumble
I... I'm gonna crumble

If you say it like that I'll die
If you say it like that I'll probably cry
If you say it like that and don't want to take it back
I'm gonna crumble

You say don't misread your words
Sometimes they're gonna hurt
And it's only because you love me

If you say you're well aware
Of that but you don't care
And it's only because you love me

I... I'm gonna crumble
I... I'm gonna crumble

If you say it like that I'll die
If you say it like that I'll probably cry
If you say it like that and don't want to take it back
I'm gonna crumble

Get yourself ready to catch what you can of me
Get yourself ready to pick me up
Get yourself ready to catch what you can of me
Get yourself ready to pick me up

If you say it without intention
You just thought that you should mention
And it's only because you love me

And you want to see me soon
Under less a children’s moon
And it's only because you love me

I... I'm gonna crumble
I... I'm gonna crumble

If you say it like that I'll die
If you say it like that I'll probably cry
If you say it like that and don't want to take it back
I'm gonna crumble

Get yourself ready to catch what you can of me
Get yourself ready to pick me up
Get yourself ready to catch what you can of me
Get yourself ready to pick me up

Joy Division - Love Will Tear Us Apart [Permanent Mix]

When routine bites hard
And ambitions are low
And resentment rides high
But emotions won't grow
And we're changing our ways, taking different roads

Then love, love will tear us apart again
Love, love will tear us apart again

Why is the bedroom so cold?
You've turned away on your side
Is my timing that flawed?
Our respect runs so dry
Yet there's still this appeal
That we've kept through our lives

But love, love will tear us apart again
Love, love will tear us apart again

You cry out in your sleep
All my failings exposed
And there's a taste in my mouth
As desperation takes hold
Just that something so good
Just can't function no more

Then love, love will tear us apart again
Love, love will tear us apart again
Then love, love will tear it apart again
Love, love will tear it apart again

Dead Can Dance - Enigma Of The Absolute

Saloman hung down her head, laid bare her heart
For the world to see, she craved for intimacy
Through darkened doors her aspect veiled with indecision
Gazed out to sea, she craved lucidity

Cast adrift from past relationships in her life
Hoisted up the ideal, this was her saving grace
Sea's of rage that once assailed her concern for the truth
Had passed her by and left her high and dry
In her saviour's arms...

Across the sea lies the fountain of renewal
Where you will see the whole cause of your lonliness
Can be measured in dreams that transcend all these lies
And I wish and I pray that there may come a day
For a saviour's arms...

Smashing Pumpkins - Beyond the Vale

I will fight this space and time
That jumps through you
Our affairs were never fair
Where love stood as cruel

Vagabonds, your feast is love
Vagabonds, your feast is love

I used to mind their fake rebellions
I used to mind their sin
Now I'm the one let in

Love, love, love our way
Love our way in you
Love, love, love our way
Love our ways in you
Love, love, love our way
Love, our way in you
Love, love love I'll wait
Love our ways in you

Darkness scares and unawares
Is us selling you
Behind these walls and in your faults
Gains trust as sinew

Vagabonds, your feast is love
Vagabonds, your feast is love

I used to mind their fake rebellions
I used to mind their sin
Now I'm the one let in

Love, love, love our way
Love, our way in you
Love, love, love our way
Love our ways in you
Love, love, love our way
Love our way in you
Love, love, love our way
Love our ways in you
Love our ways in you
