The Cranberries - Daffodil Lament

Holding on, that's what I do, since I met you
And it won't be long
Would you notice, if I left you?
And it's fine for some
'Cause you're not the one, you're not the one
There
There, there, there
There, there

All-night long, laid on my pillow
These things are wrong
I can't sleep here

So lovely, so lovely, so lovely

I have decided to leave you forever
I have decided to start things from here
Thunder and lightning won't change what I'm feeling
And the daffodils look lovely today
And the daffodils look lovely today
Look lovely today
Through your eyes I can see the disguise
Through your eyes I can see the dismay
Has anyone seen lightning?
Has anyone looked lovely?

And the daffodils look lovely today, a-ay
And the daffodils look lovely today, a-ay
Look lovely today

Look lovely (Look lovely)
Look lovely (Look lovely)
Look lovely (Look lovely)
Look lovely (Look lovely)
Look lovely (Look lovely)
Look lovely (Look lovely)
Look lovely (Look lovely)
Look lovely (Look lovely)
Look lovely
Nah, nah
Nah, nah-nah, nah-nah, nah
Nah, nah-nah, nah-nah, nah
Nah, nah-nah, nah-nah, nah
Nah, nah-nah, nah-nah

Cat Power - In This Hole

In this hole that we have fixed
We get further and further and further
From the world
We must do

I saw you asleep beside a wall
Your skull inside a ball
Your eyes blackened by
The sound and the thought of God
Where should I hang my head?
Where would you like for me to hang my head?

One absence of truth
And one horrible thing I saw
What you truly wanted to become
And who you thought I was
The fall, the fall
Afraid to love
What is deeper than the grave
Goes all the way down those tracks
Everybody bow your head for the greatest inspiration
Complete contradiction
Away

In this hole that we have fixed
We get further and further
From the world
We must do
I know this, I know this
You know this, you know this

In this hole that we have fixed
We get further and further and further
From the world
We must do

I saw you outside that wall
Your skull outside that wall
Your eyes perceived by the sound
And the light of God

The Cult - White

White
Shining
Shining brightly
Pure crystal snow
White
Oh, virgin

White

White
Yeah, white
Shining
Shining bright

Snow is crystal, the fire is cold
I sit back, watch the sun turn gold
In the morning, love is healing
Warms the frost deep in my bones
And then your mother said

White
White
It's shining
Shining bright

The hunter sits on a pure white stallion
A hawk in flight, the bow in his hand
A deer approaches at the end of the forest
The arrow flies, blood on the snow
Said brother, said

Blood on the snow
Said brother, say

The forest awaits me, the keel awaits me
I reel back, watch the sun turn to gold

Earth in the mother
Said white
Sure crystal clear, yeah, virgin white
Wilderness, lost to us
Wilderness, we reach out
Wilderness, we must embrace you once more

Yeah...
White

Shining brightly
Snow is pure now

When the barbarians approach on the frontiers of a civilization,
it is a sign of a crisis in that civilization.
When the barbarians come, not with weapons of war, but
with songs and icons of peace.
It is a sign of the crisis in one of a spiritual nature.
That a spiritual nature.
We have forgotten our spiritual nature.
Cause we are wrapped up in too much shit all day, all night.

Garbage - Butterfly Collector

So you finally got what you wanted
You've achieved your aim by making the walking lame
When you just can't get any higher
You use your senses to suss out this week's climber
And the small fame that you've acquired
Has brought political status
But to me you're still a collector

There's tarts and whores but you're much more
You're a different kind cause you want their minds
And you just don't care cause you've got no brains
It's just a face on your pillowcase that thrills you

And you've started looking much older
And your fashion sense is second rate like your perfume
But to you in your own little dream world
You're still the queen of the butterfly collectors

You carry on cause it's all you know
You can't light a fire, you can't cook or sew
You go from day to day by filling your head
But you surely must know the thrill between your legs has worn off

And I don't care about morals
Cause the world's insane and we're all to blame anyway
And I don't feel any sorrow
Towards the queens and kings of the butterfly collectors

There's tarts and whores but you're much more
You're a different kind cause you want their minds
And you just don't care cause you've got no brains
It's just a face on your pillowcase that thrills you

You carry on cause it's all you know
You can't light a fire, you can't cook or sew
You go from day to day by filling your head
But you surely must know the thrill between your legs has worn off

And I don't feel any sorrow
Towards the kings and queens of the butterfly collectors

(originally recorded by The Jam)

U2 - Treason

You come to me when your voice is a whisper
Come to me on the corner of a breeze
You come to me because you cannot have her
You come to me only when you’re on your knees

I was naked when and you clothed me
A slave and you stole me
From the ones that couldn’t hold me
Who took our freedom away

I was empty and you filled me
Made a friend of my enemy
I was there but you could see things I couldn’t see

If you love life
And you give love
There’s nothing you’ll be needing
But if you have love and don’t give love
This is treason

You come to me where the waves are crashing
You come to me on the swell of the sea
You come to me when lightning is flashing
In the static electricity

I was the sun and the rain to you
The one who gave a new name to you
I was a vision that came to you
Now you can’t even see
You were jumping now your landin’
You were kneeling now you’re standin’
I’m not a child to abandon
So don’t abandon me

If you love life
And you give love
There’s nothing you’ll be needing
But if you have love and don’t give love
This is treason

Has your heart stopped the beating
This is treason.

Shadow-man, I'll-cage-us-in-a-mansion-in-the-open-air,
I-don’t-wanna-make-you-wanna-rush-you, no, way, now
Take it all I’m running also wanna see you there
You wanna fake it never dance, soul, mash-up
Who’d, you, want, it, love, hard-to-get,
I want me a better silhouette

Kool aid, we’re sippin in the coal mine
Mine some soul we’re living off coal
Slipping on my manischewitz,
Slamming down the soul of it
You wanna drill it in Alaska ka ka…
You-wanna
Cup, cake, says I, don’t, know…
You feelin’, walls are like balsawood
Game, show, shake your finger
Day-Glo she’s a ringer
Feed my my my my my soul
World in a fever she’s got the glow.

If you love life
And you give love
There’s nothing you’ll be needing
But if you have love and you don’t give love
This is treason
This is treason

The Vaccines - People's Republic Of Desire

Dancing on my own since you cut us in half
Moving 'round my mind like you're choreographed
Watching you relaxing at the end of the bed
Wishing you'd relax going 'round in my head
When you're really gone, then there'll be nothing to start
No planet big enough to fill the space in my heart
Don't pull us apart, don't pull us apart, don't pull us apart

Only know the moon 'cause I grew up with his sun
No one there was happy, but they're all having fun
Sometimes think the world is only turning on me
Knew right as I said it that you wouldn't agree
Kill the negativity with candles and sage
Work in perfect harmony for minimum wage
Make peace with my rage, make peace with my rage, make peace with my rage

Take a vow of devotion
And invade my emotion Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

We're guns for hire in the People's Republic of Desire
So hot, we start fires in the People's Republic of Desire
Leading suppliers to the People's Republic of Desire
We're frequent flyers to the People's Republic, the People's Republic

Went to bed with fear in its very long arms
Tried to fall asleep, felt like a fire alarm
Don't call it a comeback and don't call it a crush
Life can be amazing, but it's nothing on us
Someone call a doctor, I don't feel very well
There's no point in love if you've got no one to tell
I'm ringing my bell, I'm ringing my bell, I'm ringing my bell

Never gave the joke my permission to land
Thought that it was fresh, but all the laughter was canned
Humour doesn't travel, but it might need a break
The jokes are getting older, let's just get 'em a cake
Look into the future and there's nobody there
No one that can tell me that my life is unfair
Or answer my prayer, or answer my prayer, or answer my prayer

Take a vow of devotion
And invade my emotion
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

We're guns for hire in the People's Republic of Desire
So hot, we start fires in the People's Republic of Desire
Leading suppliers to the People's Republic of Desire
We're frequent flyers to the People's Republic, the People's Republic


We're guns for hire in the People's Republic of Desire
So hot, we start fires in the People's Republic of Desire

Kasabian - Italian Horror

She loved Italian horror
She was the best and the worst of tomorrow
And now she’s looking for forgiveness
I can give her that
Oh I can give her that

She drink her wine in the morning
Sergio Martino on her necklace, keep it pouring
And now she wanna stay with me forever
I can give her that
I can give her that

You need saving from yourself
It’s the last time you get to climb down from the shelf

And all the faces come and go
When you find out you life’s a giallo horror show

She loved Italian horror
She was the best and the worst of tomorrow
And now she’s looking for forgiveness
I can give her that
Oh I can give her that

She’s on my mind
evyrehere I go
She’s breaking up
The stereo

I never her smile
Always running wild
Is the only way she knows

Marilyn Manson - Nod If You Understand

I need destruction
I want towers to crumble
Mothers tossing babies from the windows above

Who would wanna wake up if this is their world

Mothers tossing babies from the windows above

Who would wanna wake up if this is their world
Who would wanna wake up if this is their world

I won't repent
This is what I was sent here for
No reason to ask forgiveness
Pain is the language that was spoken to me
And now it's my time to answer

Look at yourself for someone to blame
You're the only one who should be ashamed

Look at yourself for someone to blame
You're the only one who should be ashamed

Stand in your lie
I'm a bomb in your building
No mercy
No pity
I don't care who survives

I'm a mistake that you can't unmake
Nod if you understand

I won't repent
This is what I was sent here for
No reason to ask forgiveness
Pain is the language that was spoken to me
Now it's my time to answer

Kim Deal - Disobedience

Burning away All energies fade To memories gone Like vibrations of a song You played for me
Can you hear me now? I'm white hot I'm burning out
I know what i want Till i'm thrown off I wanna ride on the ferris wheel
And a pop
Disobedience If this all we are I'm fucked
I go where i want While i'm still on the planet One day I'll take a ride On the radar and rock
Disobedience
If this is all there is
Burning away My cinder fades Accelerating high Some sizzle in your eye
I go where i want While I'm still on the planet One day I'll day I'll take a dive off the radar and rock
Disobedience
If this is all there is...
