St. Vincent - Broken Man

on the street i’m a kingsize killer
I can make your kingdom come
on my feet I’m an earthquake shaking
so open up my little onehey what are you looking at
who the hell do you think I am
what are you looking at
like you never seen a broken manlover nail yourself right to me
if you go I won’t be well
I can hold my arms right open
but I need you to drive the nail
hey what are you looking at
who the hell do you think I am
what are you looking at
like you never seen a broken manHow do you see me now?
You built my tower to tear it down.
And how could you see me now?
If I stopped cracking up myself
If I stopped cracking up

Moby feat. serpentwithfeet - on air

7am and the sun is hidden
I see tears in your eyes but the love is missing
I wanna hold you and not fight
May the shadows leave us be at night
Wanna say I know you and be right
May the shadows leave us be at night
May the shadows leave us be at night

It's been a minute since I've seen you smile
But I believe in us somehow
It's been a minute since I've seen you smile
But I believe in us somehow

It's almost noon and the sun's still low
Hope the seeds I planted choose to grow
I wanna hold you and not fight
May the shadows leave us be at night
Wanna say I know you and be right
May the shadows leave us be at night
Wanna say I know you and be right
May the shadows leave us be at night
May the shadows leave us be at night

It's been a minute since I've seen you smile
But I believe in us somehow
It's been a minute since I've seen you smile
But I believe in us somehow
It's been a minute since I've seen you smile
But I believe in us somehow
It's been a minute since I've seen you smile
But I believe in us somehow

The National - New Order T-Shirt

How you tapped on a box of blue American Spirits
At Anyway Cafe a little under a month
Before the ashes and management capital files filled the streets

How we wove through the cones walking home
To the place on Atlantic you shared with your hilarious sister
Kicking off your black flats, demolished and laughing

I keep what I can of you
Split second glimpses and snapshots and sounds
You in my New Order t-shirt
Holding a cat and a glass of beer

When you rescued me from the customs cops in Hawaii
When I shut down the place with my Japanese novelty bomb
And your dad came along

How you had me lay down for a temperature check
With the cool of your hand on the back of my neck
When I said "I think I'm finally going crazy for real"

I keep what I can of you
Split second glimpses and snapshots and sounds
You in my New Order t-shirt
Holding a cat and a glass of beer
I flicker through
I carry them with me like drugs in a pocket
You in a Kentucky aquarium
Talking to a shark in a corner

You in a bath on the phone
Telling somebody that maybe they're better off leaving
Than staying in it alone
You in a bath on the phone
Telling somebody that maybe they're better off leaving
Than staying in it alone

When you cried at the beach and recovered in seconds
And said everything's fine but I knew that it wasn't
Then you stayed out of reach of me for almost a year

How you looked like a poster of a 70's movie
Standing outside at the base of your magazine skyscraper
Waiting for me to go drinking downtown

I keep what I can of you
Split second glimpses and snapshots and sounds
You in my New Order t-shirt
Holding a cat and a glass of beer
I flicker through
I carry them with me like drugs in a pocket
You in a Kentucky aquarium
Talking to a shark in a corner

I keep what I can of you
Split second glimpses and snapshots and sounds
You in my New Order t-shirt
Holding a cat and a glass of beer
I flicker through
I carry them with me like drugs in a pocket
You in a Kentucky aquarium
Talking to a shark in a corner

James - Is This Love

Is this love we just weaponised
Can our love outrun these times
Is this love you just semaphored
You advanced, now you withdraw
What is it good for
What is it good for
I am done with the chase butterfly

Can you love like the wind
Wild and free
Can you love more than one equally
Is love shaped by a screen
Films that you’ve seen

Peace of mind
Peace of mind
Peace of mind

Are you scared of alone or dreaming escape
Who signs up for this pain - why do we stay?
We will get past the hurt to the parade

Peace of mind
Peace of mind
Peace of mind

Is this love or a brick through glass
How long will this heat last
What is it good for
What is it good for
Sweet relief from a world in free fall

Peace of mind
Peace of mind
Peace of mind

Is this love…

Vampire Weekend - Ice Cream Piano

"Fuck the world"
You said it quiet
No one could hear you
No one but me
Cynical, you can't deny it

You don't want to win this war
'Cause you don't want the peace

Armistice, we never tried it
You're a soldier
I'm police
Listen, baby
We can't deny it

You don't want to win this war
'Cause you don't want the peace

The word was weaponized
As soon as it had passed your lips
I am a gentle man
I refuse to show my gentleness

"Fuck around and find out"
The angry child recites this every day
The universe will pry out
The truth, which is you've got nothing to say

In dreams, I scream, "Piano"
I softly reach the high note
The world don't recognize
A singer who won't sing

You talk of Serbians
Whisper, "Kosovar Albanians"
The boy's Romanian
Third-generation Transylvanian

I see the vampires walking
Don't be gripped by fear, you aren't next
We're all the sons and daughters
Of vampires who drained the old world's necks

In dreams, I scream, "Piano"
I softly reach the high note
The world don't recognize
A singer who won't sing

In dreams, I scream, "Piano"
I softly reach the high note
The world don't recognize
A singer who won't sing

The Vaccines - Discount De Kooning (Last One Standing)

maybe we should on dancing
maybe we should on dancing
i feel like something good is gonna happen
don't care if i'm the last one standing

i've been thinking about all the times you used to fill my streets
until i got deserted like i'm boarded up with nowhere to eat
maybe i'm looking for a willem de kooning at the discount store
i would buy anything, try anything, take anything to feel some more
its gonna eat me up
its gonna eat me up

maybe we should on dancing
maybe we should on dancing
i feel like something good is gonna happen
don't care if i'm the last one standing

so maybe we should on dancing
maybe we should on dancing
i feel like something good is gonna happen
don't care if i'm the last one standing
even if the song is all gone and it's the end of the world
no nothing's gonna stop us, gonna stop us now
so we should on dancing
maybe we should on dancing on and on

started filling up cracks in the calendar with discontent
double checking junk to see where the apologies went
the best thing that i had since records began
i would do anything, take anything, i'm so machiavellian
its gonna eat me up
its gonna eat me up

don't know what i'll do now my luck is all spent
and i wish i had you here, tell me what it all meant,
to get to grips
serenading the apocalypse

maybe we should on dancing
maybe we should on dancing
i feel like something good is gonna happen
don't care if i'm the last one standing

i've tried to move on but nothing compares
i'm ready for anything, i'm not going anywhere
i'm playing it cool but i'm so damn scared
and i'm ready for anything i'm not going anywhere

maybe we should on dancing
maybe we should on dancing
i feel like something good is gonna happen
don't care if i'm the last one standing

Lana Del Rey feat. SYML - Paris, Texas

I went to Paris (Texas)
With a suitcase in my hand
I had to leave
Knew they wouldn't understand

When you know, you know
When you know, you know
It's time, it's time to go
When you know, you know
Then the more you know
It's time to go

I took a trip to Spain
Just a notebook in my hand
Then I went to see some friends of mine
Down in Florence, Alabama

When you know, you know
When you know, you know
It's time, it's time to go
When you know, you know
That it's time to leave
Like the summer breeze

When everyone star's bright
Brighter than you are
It's time to go
And you're the only one left
Dancin' while they’re on the floor
Time to go

I flew back home
It seems everything's the same (Venice, California)
Except that you aren't home
Hello, I call to know why (But)

When you're home, you're home (Venice, California)
When you're home, you're home (Venice, California)
When you're home, when you're alone
When you're right, you're right
When you're right, you're right
Even when you're wrong

R.E.M. - Beat A Drum

the sun reflected in the back of my eye
I knocked my head against the sky

the dragonflies are busy buzzing me
seahorses if we were in the sea

halfway from coal, halfway to diamond.
my fall knocked a mean chip out of me.

I'm gathering as far as I can reach
we're perched up on the precipice
and this is what I've seen

this is all I want it's all I need
this is all I am it's everything
this is all I want it's all I need.

a bluejay hectors from the felled catalpa tree
doctorate in science and a theologian's
dream

the dragonflies are trying to lecture me
seahorses if we were in the sea

this is all I want it's all I need
this is all I am it's everything
this is all I want it's all I need.

beat a drum for me, like a butterfly wing
tropical storm across the ocean

but don't explain, I'm sure I'll want to know.
but don't forget, we're just halfway from coal

this is all I want it's all I need
this is all I am it's everything
this is all I want it's all I need.

Smashing Pumpkins - Pentecost

I've been feeling lower than low with you
The highs are high but nothing that hurt can't do
What breaking a heart must prove
So you must need the pain
If your heart needs the pain
What would a heart yet do if not lose
If only one
Surrender at night
If only one

I've been saying goodbye forever
If you can recall when you'd fix and hold my gaze
And our lies were hard yet clever
And this life was sweet and not pain

I've been feeling lower than low with you
The highs are high
But nothing that hurt can't do
What breaking a heart must prove
So you must need the pain
If your heart needs the pain
What would a heart yet do if not lose
If only one
Surrender at night
If only one

I've been saying goodbye forever
For a sign once gifted me
A search that was my bliss
Of these lies that save pretenders
And this life
This light wasted as grace
Well as long as I delivered
When the walls were thin and spare
And you'd fix and hold my gaze
That's when our lies were hard yet clever
And our life was not the same

Kings Of Leon - Split Screen

Another modern innovation
This time i mean it
A hazard of the occupation
Desire when needed
Set it down before you break it
This house ain't for children
Doing jumping jacks in the basement
These arms are reaching out

Hyperventilation
If i could be so bold
All the time

The weight of the feather
You fall like a leaf
Is this a middle of the night call
A revelation on a split screen
To see all the color
Run from your eyes
Is this a middle of a life thought
A revelation on a split screen

I discern some reservation
Distain to put the boys in
At the face of obligation
The pain is in the poison
Unprescribed medication
Big plan let’s cancel
I’m a fan of your extensions
Your hair is like a puzzle

Hyperventilation
If i could be so bold
All the time

The weight of the feather
You fall like a leaf
Is this a middle of the night call
A revelation on a split screen
To see all the color
Run from your eyes
Is this a middle of a life thought a revelation on a split screen

Out in the shadows
The fields are moving
You pack up your head case
And move the needle
Out in the shadows
The fields are moving
You pack up your head case
And move the needle round
Move the needle round
Move the needle round
