Alanis Morissette - All I Really Want

Do I stress you out
My sweater is on backwards and inside out
And you say how appropriate
I don’t want to dissect everything today
I don’t mean to pick you apart you see
But I can’t help it
There I go jumping before the gunshot has gone off
Slap me with a splintered ruler
And it would knock me to the floor if I wasn’t there already
If only I could hunt the hunter

And all I really want is some patience
A way to calm the angry voice
And all I really want is deliverance
Do I wear you out
You must wonder why I’m so relentless and all strung out
I’m consumed by the chill of solitary
I’m like Estella
I like to reel it in and then spit it out
I’m frustrated by your apathy
And I am frightened by the corrupted ways of this land
If only I could meet the Maker

And I am fascinated by the spiritual man
I am humbled by his humble nature
What I wouldn’t give to find a soulmate
Someone else to catch this drift
And what I wouldn’t give to meet a kindred
Enough about me, let’s talk about you for a minute
Enough about you, let’s talk about life for a while
The conflicts, the craziness and the sound of pretenses
Falling all around…all around
Why are you so petrified of silence
Here can you handle this?

Did you think about your bills, your ex, your deadlines
Or when you think you’re gonna die
Or did you long for the next distraction
And all I need know is intellectual intercourse
A soul to dig the hole much deeper
And I have no concept of time other than it is flying
If only I could kill the killer

All I really want is some peace man
A place to find a common ground
And all I really want is a wavelength
All I really want is some comfort
A way to get my hands untied
And all I really want is some justice…

Editors - Silence

When we wake at last
Did the circus come to town?
I've broken the looking glass
Dimmed every light and turned down the sound

Wherever you are now
You're making me feel
These walls are a real life
I miss you, I'm still

All this silence, all this silence
All this silence, all this silence, all this silence
When we wake at last
When we wake
When we wake

When we wake at last
Now I'm catching you, I'm catching your age
This distant photograph
Only marks the page

Wherever you are now
You're making me feel
These walls are a real life
I miss you I'm still

All this silence, all this silence
All this silence, all this silence, all this silence
When we wake at last
When we wake
When we wake

Wherever you are now you're making me feel
These walls are a real life, I miss you, I'm still

When my body aches
Gimme uncomplicated conversation
When my body aches
Gimme uncomplicated conversation

Queens Of The Stone Age - Medication

Medication for us all, it's is a new way
And we're gonna take it cause we love it
Don't you know?
Is this the dose you've been dreaming of?
A revelation from a gun
Doesn't matter
Overtaken, mine was yours, now overthrown

No

Just copulation in a song
I'm so contagious, can I come?
In the new way
All of us cast asides became what has become

No

Medication for us all
You think you know me, well you're wrong
Doesn't matter
All of us cast aside became what has become

Florence And The Machine - Third Eye

That original lifeline,
Original lifeline,
That original lifeline,
Original lifeline.

Hey, look up!
Don't make a shadow of yourself,
Always shutting out the light.
Caught in your own creation.
Look up, look up!
It tore you open
And oh, how much!

'Cause there's a hole where your heart lies
And I can see it with my third eye.
And oh my touch, it magnifies
You pull away, you don't know why

That original lifeline,
Original lifeline,
That original lifeline,
Original lifeline.

Hey, look up!
You don't have to be a ghost,
Here amongst the living.
You are flesh and blood!
And you deserve to be loved and you deserve what you are given.
And oh, how much!

'Cause there's a hole where your heart lies
And I can see it with my third eye.
And oh my touch, it magnifies
You pull away, you don't know why.

That original lifeline,
Original lifeline,
That original lifeline,
Original lifeline.

'Cause there's a hole where your heart lies
And I can see it with my third eye.
And oh my touch, it magnifies
You pull away, you don't know why.

That original lifeline,
Original lifeline,
That original lifeline,
That original lifeline.

'Cause your pain is a tribute
The only thing you let hold you
Wear it now like a mantle
Always there to remind you

But your pain is a tribute
The only thing you let hold you
Wear it now like a mantle
Always there to remind you

I am the same, I'm the same
I'm trying to change.
I am the same, I'm the same
I'm trying to change.
I am the same, I'm the same
I'm trying to change!

'Cause there's a hole where your heart lies
And I can see it with my third eye.
And oh my touch, it magnifies
You pull away, you don't know why.

I am the same, I'm the same
(That original lifeline)
I'm trying to change.
(Original lifeline)
I am the same, I'm the same
(Original lifeline)
I'm trying to change.
(That original lifeline)
I am the same, I'm the same
(Original lifeline)
I'm trying to change
(Original lifeline)

The Pogues - Billy's Bones

Billy ran around with the rare old crew
And he knew an Arsenal from Tottenham blue
We'd be a darn sight better of if we knew
Where Billy's bones are resting now
Billy saw a copper and he hit him in the knee
And he took him down from six foot to five foot three
Then he hit him fair and square in the do-re-mi
That copper won't be having any family

Hey Billy son where are you now
Don't you know that we need you now
With a ra-ta-ta and the old kow-tow
Where are Billy's bones resting now

Billy went away with the peace-keeping force
'Cause he liked a bloody good fight of course
Went away in an old khaki van to the banks of the river Jordan
Billy saw the Arabs and he had 'em on the run
When he got 'em in the range of his sub-machine gun
Then he had the Israelis in his sights, went a ra-ta-ta
And they ran like Shiites

Hey Billy son where are you now
Don't you know that we need you now
With a ra-ta-ta and the old kow-tow
Where are Billy's bones resting now

One night Billy had a rare old time,
Laughing and singing on the Lebanon line
Came back to camp not looking too pretty
Never even got to see the Holy City
Now Billy's out there in the desert sun
And his mother cries when the morning comes
And there's mothers crying all over this world
For their poor dead darling boys and girls

Hey Billy son where are you now
Don't you know that we need you now
With a ra-ta-ta and the old kow-tow
Where are Billy's bones resting now

Have a Billy holiday
Born on a Monday
Married on a Tuesday
Drunk on a Wednesday
Got plugged on a Thursday
Sick on a Friday
Died on a Saturday
Buried on a Sunday

The Gathering - Disconnect

The stars above my clouds
I open up to see
If there's a sign that I could call the beacon of my life

And every time it rains
My moon will fade again
And I am left to save the world from cracking apart and heal

Take a look - the sky is eerie
Feel my breath - my eyes are weary
I try to reach for your attention
You hit me back - incomprehension

I regret I opened
So I disconnect

Take a look - the sky is eerie
Feel my breath - my eyes are weary
I try to reach for your attention
You hit me back - you hit me back

The stars above my clouds
I open up to see
If there's a sign that I could call the beacon of my life
And every time it rains
My moon will fade again
And I am left alone to save the world

I regret I opened
So I disconnect

And every time it rains
My moon will fade again
And I am left alone to save the world from falling apart
And every time it rains
My moon will fade again
And every time it rains
My moon will fade again
And every time it rains
My moon will fade again

Depeche Mode - Macro

Overflowing senses
Heightened awareness
I hear my blood flow
I feel its caress
Whispering cosmos
Talking right to me
Unlimited endless
God breathing through me

See the microcosm
In macro vision
Our bodies moving
With pure precision
One universal celebration
One evolution
One creation

Thundering rhythm
Pounding within me
Driving me onwards
Forcing me to see
Clear and enlightening
Right there before me
Brilliantly shining
Intricate beauty

See the microcosm
In macro vision
Our bodies moving
With pure precision
One universal celebration
One evolution
One creation

R.E.M. - I'll Take the Rain

The rain came down
The rain came down
The rain came down on me.

The wind blew strong
The summer song
Fades to memory

I knew you when
I loved you then
The summer's young and helpless.

You laid me bare
You marked me there
The promises we made.

I used to think
As birds take wing
They sing through life so why can't we?
You cling to this
You claim the best
If this is what you're offering
I'll take the rain
I'll take the rain
I'll take the rain.

The nighttime creases
Summer schemes
And stretches out to stay.
The sun shines down
You came around
You love easy days.

But now the sun,
The winter's come.
I wanted just to say
That if I hold
I'd hope you'd fold Open up inside, inside of me.

I used to think
As birds take wing
They sing through life so why can't we?
You cling to this
You claim the best
If this is what you're offering
I'll take the rain
I'll take the rain
I'll take the rain.

This winter song
I'll sing along
I've searched its still refrain
I'll walk alone
I've given this, take wing
Celebrate the rain.

I used to think
As birds take wing
They sing through life so why can't we?
You cling to this
You claim the best
If this is what you're offering
I'll take the rain
I'll take the rain
I'll take the rain.

U2 - Until the End of the World [Soundtrack Version]

Haven't seen you in quite a while
I was down the hold, just passing time.
Last time we met it was a low-lit room
We were as close together as a bride and groom.
We ate the food, we drank the wine
Everybody having a good time except you.
You were talking about the end of the world.

I took the money, I spiked your drink
You miss too much these days if you stop to think.
You led me on with those innocent eyes
And you know I love the element of surprise.
In the garden I was playing the tart
I kissed your lips and broke your heart.
You, you were acting like it was the end of the world.

In my dream, I was drowning my sorrows
But my sorrows they'd learned to swim
Surrounding me, going down on me
Spilling over the brim
Waves of regret and waves of joy.
I reached out for the one I tried to destroy.
You, you said you'd wait till the end of the world.
