The Clash - Stay Free

We met when we were in school
Never took no shit from no one, we weren't fools
The teacher says we're dumb
We're only having fun
We piss on everyone
In the classroom

When we got thrown out I left without much fuss
An' weekends we'd go dancing
Down Streatham on the bus
You always made me laugh

Got me in bad fights
Play me pool all night
Smokin' menthol

I practiced daily in my room
You were down the crown planning your next move
Go on a nicking spree
Hit the wrong guy
Each of you get three
Years in Brixton

I did my very best to write
How was butlins?
Were the screws too tight?
When you lot get out
Were gonna hit the town
We'll burn it fuckin' down
To a cinder

'Cause years have passed and things have changed
And I move anyway I want to go
I'll never forget the feeling I got
When I heard that you'd got home
An' I'll never forget the smile on my face
'Cause I knew where you would be
An' if you're in the crown tonight
Have a drink on me
But go easy...step lightly...stay free

Interpol - Summer Well

Fevered the plastics that seal your body
They won't stop this way, hey, hey

I was your eye in the night when the prophets fell
I said, "it looks like you summer well"

But I want to stay magical
I want to stay yearning (nobody told you, nobody told you)
I want to feel up on your life
I missed you
But it looks like you summered well

All the while, the protests have shined the same
But you will never have noticed
It's alright

I rely on the process, don't mind the frame
They will never take this dream from me

It's alright
(I need you back)
It's alright
(It's all the way behind us)
It's alright

I miss you, babe
I want you back
The signs we gave
Weren't those signs supposed to last?

The rainy days
The Summer's back
The signs we gave
So what was that?

You know we have ways
To make the seasons touch these ones
So let me take this, cover your eyes
Look away
Until it fades

All the while all the protests that shined the same
But you will never notice
It's alright
I rely on the process, don't mind the frame
They will never take this dream from me

It's alright
(Dream from me)
It's alright
(You sent me)
It's alright
(You sent me)
It's alright
It's alright
It's alright
(You sent me)

Metallica - The Outlaw Torn

And now I wait my whole lifetime for you
And now I wait my whole lifetime for you

I ride the dirt, I ride the tide for you
I search the outside, search inside for you

To take back what you left me
I know I'll always burn to be
The one who seeks so I may find
And now I wait my whole lifetime

        Outlaw of torn
        Outlaw of torn
        And I'm torn

So on I wait my whole lifetime for you
So on I wait my whole lifetime for you

The more I search, the more my need for you
The more I bless, the more I bleed for you

You make me smash the clock and feel
I'd rather die behind the wheel
Time was never on my side
So on I wait my whole lifetime

        Outlaw of torn
        Outlaw of torn
        Outlaw of torn
        And I'm torn

Hear me
And if I close my mind in fear
Please pry it open
See me
And if my face becomes sincere
Beware
Hold me
And when I start to come undone
Stitch me together
Save me
And when you see me strut
Remind me of what left this outlaw torn

dEUS - The Magic Hour

I had a plan, was all made up
An angel was sent, for keeping all troubles away.
'Cause lady and I, we could not stop
As cool as a sigh, as volatile as something you say.

I had a dream, a simple plot
I held out my hand as if she'd never pushed it away.
The sun is still there, except it's not
Beside her I care to linger even though it's not safe.

Godawful I adore you
Angels were there before you
Nothing can stop what we do
It's breaking us up in two.

Hey maybe should we ask it
Could our friends be worthier.
Like things we trust for if we must
We must burn them.
And burn them good, real friends they would
Be understanding if it came to us
And us we must we must turn to
The God of small things.
The God of small things.

I had a plan, was all made up,
As good it was then the magic hour seemed to be fading.
'Cause lady and I we could not stop
As cool as a sigh, as murderous as something you say.

Godawful I adore you
Angels were there before you
Nothing can stop what we do
It's breaking us up in two.

There is room if you can trust
For anyone like us

Suede - Stay Together

Come to my house tonight,
We can be together in the nuclear sky.
We will dance in the poison rain,
We can stay a while in heaven today.

Stay together
And say, these days?

Stay together
Two hearts under the skies remain.

There's a time bomb in the high rise?
There's a blue suburban dream.
Will I see you up in paradise?
Or have you come to touch me?

Come to my arms tonight,
You and me together on electric light.
She will dance in the poisoned air,
Just you and me forever by the motorway?

Stay together
And say, these days?

Come to my arms or not,
Just you and me together in the year of the hawk.
Single file in the nuclear night,
And we can feel a little closer as we tumble through the sky.

Stay together
And say, these days?

Stay together
And say, these days?

The Gathering - Paper Waves

Sun comes out - Wakes me up
Wanna sleep - Need to sleep

Saw your face - In my dreams
Fade away, far away

Fade away, fade away

You took your time - Passing by
Smiles and tears - No one cares

Had you once - Now you’re gone
Want you here - Need you near

Dreams and life it seems
Are crushing boundaries in me
Paper waves and seas - Ride the tide with me

Need to see - You’re not far from me
I’m breaking time - Crossing lines

I start to run to catch the sun
From falling down and burn this town

I try to reach - You slip away
Can’t you stay - Please just stay

Cold and warmth collide
Turning dark and light, inside
Nights we over fly - All logic gone awry

To know we might not meet again, I hardly bare to look at you
In all this mess we don’t complain, we kind of always knew

Björk - Scatterheart

Black night is fallen
The sun has gone to bed
The innocent are dreaming
As you should sleepy-head
Sleepy-head, sleepy-head

All the love above
I send into you
Comfort and protection
I'll watch over you
But don't ask me
What's gonna happen next
I know the future
I'd love to read you the way
Just to make it easier on you

You are gonna have to find out for yourself
You are gonna have to find out for yourself
You are gonna have to find out for yourself
You are gonna have to find out for yourself

My
Dearest
Scatterheart
There is comfort
Right in the eye
Of the hurricane
Just to make it easier on you

You are gonna have to find out for yourself
You are gonna have to find out for yourself
You are gonna have to find out for yourself
You are gonna have to find out for yourself

All the hurt in the world
You know
There's nothing I'd love to do more
Than spare you from that burden
It's gonna be hard
If I only could
Shelter you
From that pain
Just to make it easier on you

You are gonna have to find out for yourself
You are gonna have to find out for yourself
You are gonna have to find out for yourself
You are gonna have to find out for yourself

You are gonna have to find out for yourself
You are gonna have to find out for yourself
You are gonna have to find out for yourself
You are gonna have to find out for yourself

The Jesus And Mary Chain - Degenerate

I was a car smash
She was a car smash
We did the car crash

I said the police
I kiss the police
I killed the police man

My mother kill my darkend soul
My mother kill my darkend soul
My mother lit my darkend soul

I got the stone look
I done the stone truck
I got the stoned look in my eye

Disease yeah
A disease yeah
A disease yeah

My lover touch my darkened soul
My lover touch my darkened soul
My lover lit my darkened soul

And now I know just where to go

I was a whore hound
I was a snake hound
I was a coke hound

I was the bad scene
I was the bad gene
I was the bad dream

My lover touch my darkened soul
My lover touch my darkened soul
My lover lit my darkened soul

And now I know just where to go

Metallica - ...And Justice For All

Halls of justice painted green
Money talking
Power wolves beset your door
Hear them stalking
Soon you'll please their appetite
They devour
Hammer of justice crushes you
Overpower

        The ultimate in vanity
        Exploiting their supremacy
        I can't believe the things you say
        I can't believe
        I can't believe the price you pay
        Nothing can save you

                Justice is lost
                Justice is raped
                Justice is gone
                Pulling your strings
                Justice is done
                Seeking no truth
                Winning is all
                Find it so grim
                So true
                So real

Apathy their stepping stone
So unfeeling
Hidden deep animosity
So deceiving
Through your eyes their light burns
Hoping to find
Inquisition sinking you
With prying minds

        The ultimate in vanity
        Exploiting their supremacy
        I can't believe the things you say
        I can't believe
        I can't believe the price you pay
        Nothing can save you

                Justice is lost
                Justice is raped
                Justice is gone
                Pulling your strings
                Justice is done
                Seeking no truth
                Winning is all
                Find it so grim
                So true
                So real

Lady Justice has been raped
Truth assassin
Rolls of red tape seal your lips
Now you're done in
Their money tips her scales again
Make your deal
Just what is truth? I cannot tell
Cannot feel

        The ultimate in vanity
        Exploiting their supremacy
        I can't believe the things you say
        I can't believe
        I can't believe the price you pay
        Nothing can save you

                Justice is lost
                Justice is raped
                Justice is gone
                Pulling your strings
                Justice is done
                Seeking no truth
                Winning is all
                Find it so grim
                So true
                So real

                Seeking no truth
                Winning

The Clash - Remote Control

Who needs remote control?
From the Civic Hall
Push a button
Activate
You gotta work and you're late

It's so grey in London town
Panda car crawling around
Here it comes
Eleven o'clock
Where can we go now?

Can't make no noise
Can't get no gear
Can't make no money
Can't get outta here

Big business, it don't like you
It don't like the things you do
You got no money
So you got no power
They think you're useless
And so you are, punk

They had a meeting in Mayfair
They got you down and wanna keep you there
It makes them worried
Their bank accounts
It's all that matters
You don't count

Can't make no progress
Can't get ahead
Can't stop the regress
Don't want to be dead

Look out, those rules and regulations

Who needs the Parliament?
Sitting making laws all day
They're all fat and old
Queuing for the House of Lords

Repression, gonna start on Tuesday
Repression, gonna be a Dalek
Repression, I am a robot
Repression, I obey
