A Perfect Circle - By And Down The River

Moving in and out of the shadow

It's no easy mission, holding on to how I picture you

Showing only bits and pieces

'Til the tide betrays you and your empty allocution

Searching your eyes for a hint or a trace of humility

Searching your eyes for the saint is an act of futility

Searching your eyes for a hint or trace of it

Searching your eyes for humility

Searching your eyes for a hint or a trace

I'm still searching, searching

Showing all the missing pieces

'Til the light betrays you and your empty allocution

Saw the Piper by and down the river

Caught his crippled alchemy from pounding waves of adoration

Pied Piper, float on down the river

Bloated carcass crippled me, the weight of adoration

Moving in and out of the shadows

It's no easy mission, holding on to how I picture you

The Stone Roses - Driving South

Driving south round midnight, man I must have been insane
Driving south round midnight in a howling hurricane
I stopped for an old man hitcher at a lonely old crossroad
He said, 'I'm going nowhere
And I'm only here to see if I can steal your soul'
'I'm not tryin' to make you, I don't want to touch your skin,
I know all there is to know about you and all your sins
Well, you ain't too young or pretty and you sure as hell can't sing
Any time you want to sell your soul
I've got a toll-free number you can ring'

Yeah, that's what I thought he said anyway

'I'm not tryin' to make you, I don't want to touch your skin,
I know all there is to know about you and all your sins.
Well, you ain't too young or pretty and you sure as hell can't sing,
any time you want to sell your soul
I've got a toll-free number you can ring'

'Oh-eight-oh-oh-triple-six-oh, yeah
Oh-eight-oh-oh-triple-six-oh, yeah'

I stopped for an old man hitcher at a lonely old crossroad,
he said, 'I'm going nowhere
And I'm only here to see if I can steal your soul'

The Vaccines - Rolling Stones

Queens Of The Stone Age - The Way You Used To Do

When I first met her she was seventeen

Seventeen

Jump like an arsonist to a perfect match

Burned alive

We run 'til no one could find us

Girl, we outrun everyone

But it doesn't matter now

Just come and love me how

Like the way you used to do

Yeah

Is love mental disease or lucky fever dream?

Fine with either

Gave birth to monsters who will terrorize normalcy, yeah

They'll terrorize

If the world exploded behind us

I never noticed if it done

Let nobody dare confine us

I'll bury anyone who does

But it doesn't matter now

Just come and love me how

Like the way you used to do

Now

The way you used to do

My heart, a ding-a-ling

A puppet on a string

C'est la vie

So lay your hands across my beating heart, love

If the world exploded behind us

I never noticed if it done

Let nobody dare confine us

I'll bury anyone who does

But it doesn't matter now

Just come and love me how

Like the way you used to do

Used to do

Like the way you used to do

Come and love me now

Like the way you used to do

Like the way you used to do

Editors - The Pulse

How do I dodge the dirty looks?

You remember the path we took

People embrace the same old things

Throw it away, let's make pretend

You accomplish and you destroy

If you want the end, then I'm your boy

People embrace the same ideas

Throw it away, let's make pretence

How can I frame the things we've said

And navigate night through a dawn to stay

People embrace the same ideas

Throw it away, let's make pretence

Little heart and soul

Little space and time

Little love and peace

Little crack on the mind

In the wind is the light

In the wind is the pulse

Moby - This Wild Darkness

Apportioned like madness in season
Bracing all like a breaking of reason
With every night lost, and every day torn
With a drama feeling calmer it's a comma in the storm
Speakers are crying like a forest in the rain
I was so alone with my thoughts and my pain
And the darkness closed like a mouth on a wire
And night, I'll never be free

Ooh, in this darkness
Please light my way
Light my way

Ooh, in this darkness
Please light my way
Light my way

I can't stand on my own anymore
I can't stand in the stain of the broken and poor
I can't break what I held and it never was true
In the mirror what I said was I lied to you
And me and everything I see and everything I could
I tried so hard to be good
For myself, for you, for the hidden and divine
For everything but I can fail just so many times

Ooh, in this darkness
Please light my way
Light my way

Ooh, in this darkness
Please light my way
Light my way

I can't stop when I feel like stopping
At 5 A.M. just cry, shoot, copping
The perfect life was enough for you
But never enough to see me through
For all the lies that were spoken in ways
And the way we lived as an affront to the days
It was an affront to the things that we cared about
Was an affront to everything that we cared about

Ooh, in this darkness
Please light my way
Light my way

Ooh, in this darkness
Please light my way
Light my way

Ooh, in this darkness
Please light my way
Light my way

Ooh, in this darkness
Please light my way
Light my way

Ooh, in this darkness
Please light my way
Light my way

Ooh, in this darkness
Please light my way
Light my way

Ooh, in this darkness
Please light my way
Light my way

The Breeders - Archangel's Thunderbird

When the everywhere-eye asks you:
“Who is the emperor of the sky?”
Take the Archangel's Thunderbird

Go to Edgar Allen
In the tower of sleep
He'll tell you a story
Which makes you to creep
The echo of your cries is falling so deep

Rent a destroyer and sail to Cape Cod
There lives a lion, they call him God
There is your elevator to Eden
But a hole in the sky

In shock-corridors standing
People with their eyes in their hands
But they don't understand
Don’t get with your confessional
Flare into the vaulting flight of stairs

Baiting soldiers sleeping in melting house of wax
Why is the audience not taking the resurrection ax
Thousands of windows burst open
And the alarm bells are broken

Franz Ferdinand - Huck and Jim

Sitting by the window, she's
Sitting by the door, her
Nose upon the window is cold
The nails upon the window breaking
Nails upon the door
Looking through the window no more

No, no more
No more

Some fun, look dumb
Put a stone in the musical window
She don't buy high time
Disco won't you leave me alone
Down, she won't go
She can't fit through a typical door
No way-oh (no way-oh)
No way-oh (no way-oh)
No way-oh (no way-oh)
No way

We're going to America
We're gonna tell them about the NHS
When we get there we will all hang out
Sipping 40's with Huck and Jim

Everywhere sham Bohemians
Hello magazine bohemians
Terminal chancers who loathe
The privileged who loathe their privilege
The skin upon the custard is hard
Yes it's hard

Flat scum, you got some
Hanging from a toe from a 10th-floor window
Pass out, no bar
There's no theoretical look down
There is no down
Something's gone and you're missing it now
No way-oh (no way-oh)
No way-oh (no way-oh)
No way-oh (no way-oh)
No way

We're going to America
We're gonna tell them about the DSS
When we get there we'll all hang out
Sipping 40's with Huck and Jim

We're going to America yeah
We're gonna tell them about the NHS
When we get there we'll all hang out
Sipping buckie with the boys

Green Day - I Was A Teenage Teenager

I don’t want to freak you out but I cannot lie
I don’t want to freak you out but I cannot lie
So who is holding the drugs?
Who is holding the drugs?
I don’t want to freak you out but I cannot lie
I was a teenage teenager
Full of piss and vinegar
Living like a prisoner for haters
I was a teenage teenager
I am alien visitor
My life’s a mess and school is just for sucker

James - Come Home [Flood Mix]

It's that time again when I lose my friends
Go walkabout, I've got the bends from pressure
This is a testing time when the choice is mine

Am I a fool for love or foolish with desire
You can throw him out, you can spit on him
Call what he does a sin if it makes you feel better

And I can't believe you're all I'll ever need
And I need to feel that you're not holding me
And the way I feel just makes me want to scream
Come home, come home, come home
Come home, come home, come home

After thirty years I've become my fears
I've become the kind of man I've always hated
I am pulled apart, and my swollen heart

Has flipped out of the pan into the fire
I am in love insane with a sense of shame
That I threw stones at the condemned and now I'm slated

And I don't believe you're all I'll ever need
And I need to feel that you're not holding me
But the way I feel just makes me want to scream
Come home, come home, come home
Come home, come home, come home
Come home, come home, come home
