The Breeders - Full On Idle

Say you're

One man's taste

Want what? Fall and break

We've seen the dream folks

In our day

What?

Fought the Father, the Pope

Finally sent away

Warden!

Lock it!

Free love's

Fought our battles through the day

We were full on idle

A lot of them say

Obey

Your colorist

Bleach it all away

Free reign!

Good rest!

Break!

Every brunette in the way

We were full on idle

A lot of them say

Obey

Your violence

It's kinda late

Say! You're!

One man's date

Want what?

Fall and break

We were full on idle

A lot of them say

Obey your violence

Look close!

Hate!

Tide all white

Row!

On the glass surf

He pulled the paddle

It's okay with me

What I'd like to do

With your violin

And it's bow

The Mission - Trail of Scarlet

It was the word from Milo, a word to the wise

That set me straight about your cheating and your lies

Set down between us like the bottle that we shared

He had to tell me because no one else dared

I'm so disappointed

I'm so very, very let down

And you can have the bed and the stains on the sheets

I'll sleep on the floor, I can't bear your deceit

You gave yourself away for the sake of a thrill

For the price of my conceit, you were a steal

I'm so devastated

I'm so very, very let down

You leave a trail of scarlet like footsteps in the snow

You leave a trail of scarlet everywhere you go

And I'm the last to know

And isn't it just like you to shake the faith in me?

I gave you all I have to give but I couldn't give you all you need

And something that had died was all we had to lose

And the worst thing I ever did to you was ask you to choose

I'm so very lonely

I'm so very, very let down

You leave a trail of scarlet like footsteps in the snow

You leave a trail of scarlet everywhere you go and I'm

The last to know

And didn't we once have it all? Held it in our hands

But it's too easy to deceive a trust that makes no demands

You leave a trail of scarlet like footsteps in the snow

You leave a trail of scarlet everywhere you go and I'm the last to know

U2 - Sometimes You Can't Make it On Your Own (Alternate Version)

Tough, you think you’ve got the stuff

You’re telling me and anyone

You’re hard enough

You don’t have to put up a fight

You don’t have to always be right

Let me take some of the punches

For you tonight

Listen to me now

I need to let you know

You don’t have to go it alone

Sometimes you can’t make it on your own

Sometimes you can’t make it on your own

When I was a young boy, in the suburb of Cedarwood

I wanted to be great

‘Cause good would not be good enough

Now that I’m older

I don’t see things any clearer

Nearer now, but still a long way off

Listen to me now

I need to let you know

You don’t have to go it alone

Sometimes you can’t make it on your own

Sometimes you can’t make it on your own

(Can, you, hear, me, when, I) sing

You’re the reason I sing

You’re the reason why the opera is in me

Hey now, gotta let you know

A house still don’t make a home

Don’t leave me here alone

(Leave me here)

Sometimes you can’t make it on your own

Sometimes you can’t make it on your own

Sometimes you can’t make it

Best you can do is to fake it

Sometimes you can’t make it on your own

Siouxsie And The Banshees - Slowdive

Get your head down to the ground

Shake it all around, a dirty sound

Put your knees into your face

And see if you can race, real slow

It's a slowdive, when you die slow

Oh, it's a low jive, do the slowdive

Now you jump back like a hound

Emit a howling sound

Dig those limbs into the floor

And holler out for more

And you revel in the dips

When your backbone slips

Taking honeysuckle sips

From your rolling hips

It shifts and it shifts

It's a slowdive, when you die slow

When you come alive it's a low jive

Do the slowdive

TV On The Radio - Happy Idiot

Stuck in the shade

Where there's no sunshine

I don't wanna play

With them other kids in the sun

Since you left me babe

It's been a long way down

Yea you left me babe

It's been a long way down

What you don't know won't hurt you yea

Ignorance is bliss

I'm a happy idiot

Waving at cars

I'm gonna bang my head to the wall

'Till I feel like nothing at all

I'm a happy idiot

To keep my mind off you

Stuck in a daze and I've lost my mind

I don't wanna stay

Where the blame's all mine

Since you left me babe

It's been a long way down

Yea you left me babe

It's been a long way down

So I shut it off

So I shut it all off

So I shut it off

So I shut it all off

It's been a long way down

It's been a long way down

What you don't know won't hurt you yea

Ignorance is bliss

I'm a happy idiot

Waving at cars

I'm gonna bang my head to the wall

'Till I feel like nothing at all

I'm a happy idiot

To keep my mind off you

To keep my mind off you

To keep my mind off you

Franz Ferdinand - Bullet

While I'm away, you can

Let the mouse go down on you

Let the mouse do what I'd do

If I was there, but you'd better explain

That I have a vendetta in my narrow bones

I have a vindictive eye

Of my jealousy, I have no control (No control)

I'll never get your bullet out of my head now, baby

I'll never get your bullet out of my mind

I'll never get your bullet out of my head now, baby

I'll never get your bullet out of my mind

How can I get your bullet out of my head now?

I have no control, but I try

Yeah, I try

I'd better explain

That I have a red vendetta in my narrow bones

And a wicked indicative eye

Of my yellow jealousy, I have no control (No control)

No control

I'll never get your bullet out of my head now, baby

I'll never get your bullet out of my mind

I'll never get your bullet out of my head now, baby

I'll never get your bullet out of my mind

Get out of my head

Ah, get out of my head now, ah

Ah, get out of my head

Ah, get out of my head now, ah

Ah, get out of my head

Ah, get out of my head now

Ah, get out of my mind

Emma Ruth Rundle - Blooms of Oblivion

Judas come close to me
Visit in visions
Tell me the story of how
you swing like an actor in the greyest of gardens
your tongue hanging free from you mouth

Down at the methadone clinic we waited
hoping to take home your cure
The curdling cowards, the crackle of china
you say that its making you pure

And just like Flowers for Algernon
something's diminished
There’s a love like you've never known pinned to your finish
One, two, six underfoot and you will rise
And in all of your blooms of oblivion
I love you

See?

Maker, I'm close to you
to deal your departure
to make sure you’re nailed to the ground
and all of the glamours, of treacherous traitors
have all run away from you now

I will stand over you
to breathe in your vapor
as pieces and parts, they dissolve
You plead you as failure
You wait for a savior
but leave knowing nothing’s resolved

And we bring flowers from Albion up to your vision
Hold back the love that you've never known
you've only this prison
Straight to the hangman’s noose, are we born this way?
Handing down a fistful of sorries you will never say
I love you

See?
Say

The Mars Volta - Desperate Graves

The swarms that I speak are the wrists I have cut

By flooding the tubs where the warmth held her up

The lockets believe that the secret of love

Has caught its own tail and it just won't give up

When I breathe, the heavens can't hold me

And I can't believe anymore

The light brings the highest execution

Show me the wings I must cut

In your landfill days, these are desperate graves

Give me the altar, red will shine

The pendulum won't wait

In your landfill days, these are desperate graves

Give me the altar, red will shine

The pendulum won't wait

If I slay your spirit with twin current volts

That weak in your knees in the pit of my palms

Dressed in the slurs of bovine engines

To feast upon the carcass of your mother

When I breathe, the heavens can't hold me

And I can't believe anymore

The light brings the highest execution

Show me the wings I must cut

In your landfill days, these are desperate graves

Give me the altar, red will shine

The pendulum won't wait

In your landfill days, these are desperate graves

Give me the altar, red will shine

The pendulum won't wait

When I turn the dial and leave the gas on

I'm the matchstick that you'll never lose

These are the splinters made from a single blade

I'm the matchstick that you'll never lose

I light the key that locks you in

I'm the matchstick that you'll never lose

And you'll wear the burden of all my burns

I'm the matchstick that you'll never lose

In your landfill days, these are desperate graves

Give me the altar, red will shine

The pendulum won't wait

In your landfill days, these are desperate graves

Give me the altar, red will shine

The pendulum won't wait

In your landfill days, these are desperate graves

Give me the altar, red will shine

The pendulum won't wait

In your landfill days, these are desperate graves

Give me the altar, red will shine

The pendulum won't wait

The Mission - Anyone but You

I'm climbing the walls again, is it any wonder that I can't sleep?

Climbing the walls again, blood on my hands, still waters run deep

The hardest thing I ever had to do, was to turn around, and walk away from you

And it feels like I've been here before, it's never enough, I always wanted more

I can, can say no, can say no, to anyone but you

I can, can say no, can say no, to anyone but you

I'm running the cold light again, it's only a fool who makes the same mistake twice

Step into the cauldron again, I can't ring at all, I know my truth lies

I can, I can say no, I can say no, to anyone but you

I can, I can say no, to anyone but you

Anyone but you

Anyone but you

It's easy now for me to say that I was wrong, and I really shouldn't have let you go

But I can never deceive, and I can never deceive, that you know me well enough to know

God damn Eve in the original sin, you can't blame Adam for the mess we're in

And just because you say you understand, and say you forgive, doesn't mean that I can

I can, I can say no, to anyone, can say no

I can, I can say no, can say no, to anyone but you

I can, I can say no, to anyone, anyone but you

Can say no, can say no, to anyone but you

Anna von Hausswolff - The Hope Only of Empty Men

I think I see a knight

I'm gonna fuck him for a while

And the ocean is gone

But I can see for miles

I can see there's nothing here

Smile

I can hear all your sorrows

I think I'm going crazier and healthier

I can see the obvious

That there is nothing here

Still
