"A Beautiful Mess," by Jason Mraz You've got the best of both worlds You're the kind of girl that can take down a man And lift him back up again You are strong but you're needy Humble but you're greedy Based on your body language Your shouted cursive I've been reading Your style is quite selective Though your mind is rather reckless Well, I guess it just suggests That this is just what happiness is What a beautiful mess this is It's like picking up trash in dresses Well, it kind of hurts when the kind of words you write Kind of turn themselves into knives And don't mind my nerve, you can call it fiction 'Cause I like being submerged in your contradictions, dear 'Cause here we are, here we are Although you were biased, I love your advice Your comebacks, they're quick And probably have to do with your insecurities There's no shame in being crazy Depending on how you take these words They're paraphrasing the relationship we're staging And it's a beautiful mess, yes it is It's like we're picking up trash in dresses Well, it kind of hurts when the kind of words you say Kind of turn themselves into blades And the kind and courteous is a life I've heard But it's nice to see that we played in the dirt 'Cause here, here we are, here we are We're still here And what a beautiful mess this is It's like taking a guess when the only answer is yes And through timeless words in priceless pictures We'll fly like birds not of this earth And tides they turn and hearts disfigure But that's no concern when we're wounded together And we tore our dresses and we stained our shirts But it's nice today, oh, the wait was so worth it |
Fist Wrapped In Blood Silverstein Come on! Finish me off, follow the plan. Break all the bonds, sever the ties. And now your mission is complete, Find and destroy me. Torturing me, with words from your lips. Filleting my skin, pulling my teeth. Please forgive me for not being good enough. Drown your sorrows in my pain And it's something you can't explain. When I'm choking on words you'll never say, And you'll never feel the same. SAME! Bound and gagged, I cannot move or speak these things I want to say I couldn't describe them anyway. So if I had it all again, If I could start from the first words I ever said, I would do it all the same. Drown your sorrows in my pain And it's something you can't explain. When I'm choking on words you'll never say, And you'll never feel the same. Your joy is my pain. My fingers are yours to cut off And my bones are yours to shatter in pieces. My teeth are yours to pull out And my soul is yours to slowly rip apart. I can't trust anyone I meet. From now on, my chest Feels more like a fist wrapped in blood. |
Smashed Into Pieces Silverstein Never again I'll slit my throat With the knife I pulled out of my spine Maybe when you find out that I'm dead You'll realize what you did to me And if my lungs still let me breathe, Will you be there for me? If i can make myself believe, I'll give you back what you took away No, i wont let it go Douse myself in gasoline So don't Save me when you come into the fire I'd rather die Than have to see your smile And if my lungs still let me breathe, Will you be there for me? If i can make myself believe, I'll give you back what you took away You made me swear You made me swear I, I can't sleep Realize all these things that you took from me Smash my heart (you made me swear) Into dust (you made me swear) Suffocate my mind (you made me swear) Tear at me from inside (you made me swear) Smash apart what you created How can I ever stop you from crushing my soul? It was, It was yours to begin with And If my lungs still let me breathe, Will you be there for me? If I can make myself believe, I'll give you back what you took away |

"I'm Your Man," by Leonard Cohen If you want a lover, I'll do anything you ask me to And if you want another kind of love, I'll wear a mask for you If you want a partner, take my hand Or if you want to strike me down in anger Well, here I stand I'm your man If you want a boxer, I will step into the ring for you And if you want a doctor, I'll examine every inch of you And if you want a driver, climb inside Or if you want to take me for a ride, you know that you can I'm your man The moon's too bright, the chain's too tight The beast won't go to sleep I've been running through these promises to you That I made and could not keep But a man never got a woman back Not by begging on his knees I'd crawl to you baby and I'd fall at your feet I'd howl at your beauty like a dog in heat And I'd claw at your heart and I'd tear at your sheet I'd say please, please, I'm your man And if you've got to sleep a moment on the road, I will steer for you And if you want to work the streets alone, I'll disappear for you If you want a father for your child or only want to walk with me awhile Across the sand, I'm your man If you want a lover, I'll do anything you ask me to And if you want another kind of love, I'd wear a mask for you |
"I Will Never Love You More," by SoKo I will never love you more than the drummer of Flaming Lips I will never love you more than Woody Allen movies I will never love you more than the White album of the Beatles I will never love you more than God only knows I will never love you more than DVD's night with my girlfriend And we talk about stupid things like feelings and men I will never love you more than my boyfriend when I was 14 Even if he's now an asshole, I will never love you more And you say, you love me more than everything And compared to me everything is nothing... I will never love you more than meeting Paul McCartney And we asked him to play a song on my ukulele I will never love you more than my Scandinavian Tour Which was more than paradise, I wish you remember it too I will never love you more than dancing to Phil Spektor I will never love you more than my Casiotone keyboard. I will never love you more than Daniel Johnston himself For me he's more than God, I will never love you more And you say, you love me more than everything And compared to me everything is nothing Ohh this is sweet, I just wonder what it means You say you love me more, than all the girls you have had before Even more than music, even more than yourself Even more than everything, but it's just a lie So I will never love you more, than anything I will never love you more than singing in the shower I will never love you more than my Mac computer I will never love you more than having a daughter I will never love you more than peanut butter I will never love you more than kisses all day I will never love you more than cuddles all night I will never love you more than kissing girls lips when they're really pretty I will never love you more I will never love you more |

"All Fires," by Swan Lake You have a father There is another You have a sister There are no brothers. You have good friends You have a lover When friendships end You will still love her But it's Teresa they love the best. There was a flood A world of water The mason's wife Swam for her daughter. One thousand people Did what they could. They found the steeple And tore out the wood. Five hundred pieces Means five hundred float. One thousand people means Five hundred don't. And it's Teresa they love the best. I've said it before, And I'll say it again. All fires have to burn alive. All fires have to burn alive. From near his heart, He took a rib. All fires have to burn alive to live. From near his heart, He took a rib. All fires have to burn alive to live. So it's Teresa that I love the best. |
"Diamonds and Rust," by Joan Baez Well, I'll be damned Here comes your ghost again But that's not unusual It's just that the moon is full And you happened to call And here I sit, hand on the telephone Hearing a voice I'd known A couple of light years ago Heading straight for a fall As I remember Your eyes were bluer than robin's egg My poetry was lousy, you said Where are you calling from? A booth in the Midwest Ten years ago, I bought you some cufflinks You brought me something We both know what memories can bring They bring diamonds and rust Well you burst on the scene already a legend The unwashed phenomenon The original vagabond You strayed into my arms And there you stayed Temporarily lost at sea The madonna was yours for free Yes, the girl on the half-shelf Would keep you unharmed Now I see you standing with brown leaves falling around And snow in your hair Now you're smiling out the window of that crummy hotel over Washington Square Our breath comes out white clouds, mingles and hangs in the air Speaking strictly for me, we both could have died then and there Now you're telling me you're not nostalgic Then give me another word for it You who are so good with words And at keeping things vague Because I need some of that vagueness now It's all come back too clearly Yes, I loved you dearly And if you're offering me diamonds and rust I've already paid |
"You and I," by Ingrid Michaelson

I just go "aww" over this everytime I hear it.
"Maybelline," by The Dozen Dimes Hey Maybelline, don't you wanna be the girl of my dreams? Don't you wanna run away from all you've known before Ride the tides of ocean shores See the sunset fade over the mountain tops ahead? Oh hey Maybelline, don't you wanna be loved? Hey Maybelline, don't you want a break from this old routine? Don't you wanna fly so high above the clouds and trees Learn a thing from birds and bees See the morning rise over the ocean up ahead? Oh hey Maybelline, don't you wanna be loved? I'm pretty shy so I wrote you this letter Folded it up, snuck it into your sweater And I realize you could probably do better And everybody says "just move on and forget her" I know it's a long shot, but I needed to say Hey Maybelline, don't you wanna be the girl of my dreams? Don't you wanna run away from all you've known before Ride the tides of ocean shores See the sunset fade over the mountain tops ahead? Oh hey Maybelline, don't you wanna be loved? |
Double-posting because summer's over and this song's just terribly accurate.
"TV Trays," by Death Cab For Cutie Summer's gone I overslept and woke up to the chill of fall Overworked and now I'm all used up This TV haze sucks me through I watch the world from the inside Overworked and now I'm all used up Final drag fills my lungs and makes me high They fill up as I bottom out Steering wheels, watch them driving Driving with some place to go I'd steer myself, but I don't have a route Working on demand, no ice cream man Or beaches filled with sand While the TV trays Wasted summer days slowly slipping away But you're so little help When days are slow And I'm down inside I'll have to go You're so little help When months are slow When I'm down inside Summer's gone I overslept and woke up to the chill of fall Overworked and now I'm all used up This TV haze sucks me through I watch the world from the inside Overworked and now I'm all used up Working on demand, no ice cream man Or beaches filled with sand While the TV trays Wasted summer days slowly slipping away But you're so little help When days are slow And I'm down inside I have to go You're so little help When years are slow When I'm down inside I'm down inside I'm down inside I'm down inside |
"To Bobby With Flowers," by Joan Baez (written about Bob Dylan when he and Joan Baez dated) I'll put flowers at your feet And I will sing to you so sweet And hope my words will carry home to your heart You left us marching on the road And said how heavy was the load But the years were young The struggle barely at its start Do you hear the voices in the night, Bobby? They're crying for you See the children in the morning light, Bobby? They're dying No one could say it like you said it We'd only try and just forget it You stood alone upon the mountain 'Til it was sinking And in a frenzy, we tried to reach you With looks and letters we would beseech you Never knowing what, where, or how you were thinking Do you hear the voices in the night, Bobby? They're crying for you See the childrne in the morning light, Bobby? They're dying Perhaps the pictures in the Times Could no longer be put in rhymes When all the eyes of starving children are wide open You cast aside the cursed crown And put your magic into a sound That made me think your heart was aching Or even broken But if God hears my complaint, he will forgive you And so will I, with all respect, I'll just relive you And likewise you must understand these things we give you Like these flowers at your door And scribbled notes about the war We're only saying that time is short And there is work to do And we're still marching on the streets With little victories and big defeats But there is joy and there is hope And there's a place for you And you have heard the voices in the night, Bobby They're crying for you See the children in the morning light, Bobby? They're dying |

"Good Morning, Magpie," by Murder By Death A seam across the sky As if it was torn The sky is filling With flocks and swarms They burst through the branches They tumble and fall Little gods surveying their worlds Examining it all My wings are dusted With frost and cold For a little thing like you I'm too heavy a load You'll struggle and falter Amble around Just follow some other storm Cause I'll only weigh you down You carry me home My love Still you carry me home Little dove A change in the winds Smoke on the breeze The sky is filled With the scent of burning leaves The vapors rise From the glen in the east Where the path is clear for you and me You carry me home My love Still you carry me home Little dove You'll ride towards the sun As it guides you home But don't be afraid,little bird You aren't alone A hoard of friends Will keep darkness at bay You're the needle In the hay I'll take you with a steady hand Make the seam reborn The rip will be sewn up again By the same hand that had it torn You carry me home My love Still you carry me home Little dove Still you carry me home My love Still you carry me home Little dove Hear it approaching The shuffle of feet The clamor of metal And hounds in heat We'll steal away To the glen in the east Where the path is clear For you and me |
"Did You Get My Message?" by Jason Mraz Did you get my message? The one that I left While I was trying to condense everything Into a minute or less when I called to confess And make all of my stresses go bye-bye Did you get my message? You didn't, I guess 'Cause if you did, you would have called me with your sweet intent And we could give it a rest instead of beating our breasts And making all of the pressure go sky-high Do you ever wonder what happens to the words that we send? Do they bend, do they break from the flight that they take And come back together again with a whole new meaning And a brand new sense completely unrelated to the one I sent? Did you get my message? Did you get my message? Did you get my message or not? Uh oh, where did it go, must have bypassed your phone And fallen right out of the window Oh well, how can I tell? Should I call the operator? Maybe she'd know the info Whether or not if my message you got was too much or too late to reply Why not try this for a fact? Should you ever come back, I'd relax and be relieved of all my panic attacks Well, did you get my message? Did you get my message? Did you get my message or not? Did you get my message, the one that I left When I was trying to condense everything that I meant? Now the moment has passed, not much sand in the glass And I'm standing to lose my mind Do you ever wonder what happens to the words that we send? Do they bend, do they break from the flight that they take And come back together again with a whole new meaning To the matter of our love's defense? At least be sympathetic to the time I spent Did you get my message or not? Did you get my message? Did you get my message? Did you get my message? No, I didn't hear a word, baby Did you get my message? And I'm not gonna believe your lies anymore Come on and answer the question I don't hear a thing from you and you keep saying you're calling Did you get my message that I wanna get back with you? Did you get my message, love, that I wanna reconnect with you? Did you get my message, sugar, should have by now I did not hear one thing you say you said Why don't you answer the phone? |
Have I posted this one before?

Can't Help Falling In Love," by Elvis Presley Wise men say only fools rush in But I can't help falling in love with you Shall I stay Would it be a sin If I can't help falling in love with you Like a river flows surely to the sea Darling so it goes Some things are meant to be Take my hand, take my whole life too For I can't help falling in love with you Like a river flows surely to the sea Darling so it goes Some things are meant to be Take my hand, take my whole life too For I can't help falling in love with you For I can't help falling in love with you |

"New York State of Mind," by Billy Joel
Some folks like to get away Take a holiday from the neighborhood Hop a flight to Miami Beach Or out to Hollywood But I'm taking a Greyhound On the Hudson River line I'm in a New York state of mind I've seen all the movie stars In their fancy cars and limousines Been high in the Rockies under the evergreens But I know what I'm needing And I don't want to waste more time I'm in a New York state of mind It was so easy living day by day Out of touch with rhythm and blues But now I need a little give and take The New York Times, The Daily News It comes down to reality And it's fine with me, 'cause I've let it slide Don't care if it's Chinatown or on Riverside I don't have any reasons I've left them all behind I'm in a New York state of mind It was so easy living day by day Out of touch with rhythm and blues But now I need a little give and take The New York Times, The Daily News It comes down to reality And it's fine with me, 'cause I've let it slide Don't care if it's Chinatown or on Riverside I don't have any reasons I've left them all behind I'm in a New York state of mind I'm just taking a Greyhound on the Hudson River line 'Cause I'm in a New York state of mind I haven't been to NY in a long time, but this song always reminds me of it. I'm going back next summer and I can't wait. I'm going to live there someday or die trying. |
Tokio Hotel - Automatic You’re automatic And your heart’s like an engine I die with every beat You’re automatic And your voice is electric Why do I still believe It’s automatic Every word in your letter A lie that makes me bleed It’s automatic When you say things get better But they never There’s no real love in you There’s no real love in you There’s no real love in you Why do I keep lovin’ you Feels automatic Counting cars on a crossroad They come and go like you Feels automatic Watchin’ faces | Don’t know Erase the face of you It’s automatic Systematic So traumatic You’re automatic Tokio Hotel-Traumer Weisser Nebel Weisses Mondlicht Scheinen hell So wie du Wenn du schläfst Dann komm ich mit Ich mach die Augen zu Wir ham uns Wir ham angst Wir kommen nirgendwo an Wir sind Träumer Wir ham uns Wir ham Angst Halten uns an der Hand Wir sind träumer Wir sind träumer Wir sind träumer Ham uns alles gegeben Ham uns alles genommen Ham uns alles vergeben Um bis hier zu kommen |
"Meet Virginia"- Train She doesn't own a dress, Her hair is always a mess, You catch her stealin', she won't confess, She's beautiful. Smokes a pack a day- Wait, that's me, but anyway- She doesn't care a thing about that, hey, She thinks I'm beautiful. Meet Virginia. She never comprimises, Loves babies and surprises, Wears high heels when She exercises. Ain't it beautiful? Meet Virginia Well she wants to be the Queen, Then she thinks about her scene. Pulls her hair back as she screams; "I don't really wanna be the Queen". Daddy wrestles alligators, Mama works on carborators, Her brother is a fine mediator, For the president. And here she is again on the phone, just like me hates to be alone, we just like to sit at home, and rip on the President. Meet Virginia. Well she wants to live her life, Then she thinks about her life. Pulls her hair back, as she screams, "I don't really wanna live this life". She only drinks coffee at midnight, When the moment is not right, Her timing is quite... unusual. You see her confidence is tragic, But her intuition magic. And the shape of her body? Unusual. Meet Virgina. I can't wait to... Meet Virginia, yeah e yeah hey hey hey. Well she wants to be the queen, then she thinks about her scene. Well she wants to live her life, Then she thinks about her life. Pulls her hair back as she screams, "I don't really wanna be the queen". I, I don't really wanna be the queen. I, I don't really wanna be the queen. I, I don't really wanna live this... |
love it!
i love that too!

^Do you listen to Train? I love them! Here's another great one by them...
"Drops of Jupiter"- Train Now that she's back in the atmosphere, With drops of Jupiter in her hair, hey, She acts like summer and walks like rain, Reminds me that there's a time to change, hey, Since the return from her stay on the moon, She listens like spring and she talks like June, hey, hey... But tell me, did you sail across the sun? Did you make it to the Milky Way To see the lights all faded, And that heaven is overrated? Tell me, did you fall for a shooting star? One without a permanent scar, And did you miss me While you were looking for yourself out there? Now that she's back from that soul vacation, Tracing her way through the constellations, hey, She checks out Mozart while she does Tae-Bo, Reminds me that there's room to grow, hey, Now that she's back in the atmosphere, I'm afraid that she might think of me as... Plain ol' Jane told a story about a man Who was too afraid to fly so he never did land. But tell me, did the wind sweep you off your feet? Did you finally get the chance To dance along the light of day, And head back to the Milky Way? And tell me, did Venus blow your mind? Was it everything you wanted to find? And did you miss me While you were looking for yourself out there Can you imagine no love, pride, deep-fried chicken, Your best friend always sticking up for you, Even when I know you're wrong? Can you imagine no first dance, freeze-dried romance, Five-hour phone conversation, The best soy latte that you ever had, and me? But tell me, did the wind sweep you off your feet? Did you finally get the chance To dance along the light of day, And head back toward the Milky Way? But tell me, did you sail across the sun? Did you make it to the Milky Way To see the lights all faded, And that heaven is overrated? And tell me, did you fall for a shooting star? One without a permanent scar, And did you miss me, While you were looking for yourself? And did you finally get the chance To dance along the light of day? And did you fall for a shooting star? Fall for a shooting star? And are you lonely looking for yourself out there? |
"Salt in the Wound," by Delta Spirit I want to disappear Far from the folks I know I want to get an answer To why I was even born No one here can tell me What's been haunting me all my life Well, this rat race has left me limping 'Cause I balanced on the edge of the knife Why am I here? Oh, what should I do? Is this the point I'm trying to prove? If there's a god in my head Then there's a devil, too How can I tell the difference When they both claim to be true Maybe God is God Maybe the devil is me Well, I just throw my chains on And tell myself that I'm free Chains- are they really there? Is this just in my head? Well, I'll just stay in bed Life sure has its meaning Over years, I have postured the sun Thieves and preachers robbed me From any hat that I've hung Now, with my heart wide open I listen to the wind just for a word Sure, I know it's futile But that's all I have in this world To look down from the hill And howl at the moon All the tears that I cried never salted any wounds Well, the earth is so tender and cruel If you're not there, it's still so beautiful |
Double post :D. "Masterfade," by Andrew Bird You sure didn't look like you were having any fun With that heavy-metal gaze they'll have to measure in tons And when you look up at the sky All you see are zeroes All you see are zeroes and ones You took my hand and led me down to watch the kewpie doll parade We let the kittens lick our hair and drank our chalky lemonade It's not that I just didn't care, I must admit I was afraid And I'm awfully glad my finger's resting gently on the masterfade The masterfade I could've played along The masterfade I could have played Mah Jong But it just takes too long And I just can't remember which way the east wind blows Does it matter if we're all matter? What's the matter? Does it matter if we're matter when we're done? When the sky is full of zeroes and ones? I saw you standing all alone in the electrostatic rain I thought, at last, I'd found a situation you can't explain With GPS, you know, it's all just a matter of degrees Your happiness won't find you underneath that canopy of trees If the green grass is six and the soybeans are seven The junebugs are eight, the weeds and thistles are eleven And the ones just hold their place and the zeroes make a smileyface When they come floating down from the heavens You took my hand and led me down to watch a papillon parade And we let the kittens lick our hair and drank our chalky lemonade You squeezed my hand and told me softly that I shouldn't be afraid 'Cause all the while your finger's resting gently on the masterfade The masterfade I could've played along The masterfade I could have played Mah Jong But it just takes too long And who the hell can remember which way the east wind blows When you're lying on the ground staring up at that inverted compass I mean, Christ, who knows? |
"N'en parlons plus (feat. Conor Oberst)," by Melon Galia Tu sais je t'en avais parlé déjà Je ne sais pas si c'est le meilleur moment pour en parler Et ça n'empêche rien Arrêtes, je t'en avais parlé déjà Je ne sais pas si c'est le meilleur moment pour en parler Et ça n'empêche rien Arrêtes, je t'en avais parlé déjà Tu sais... c'est la tour le jour, parfois il pleut et tu ne m'entends pas Tu n'es dit rien, déjà le soleil se couche en me tournant le dos Peut-être pourrais-tu me prendre la main et lui donner le sentiment Celui que tu veux Je ne pense pas qu'il faille en parler, ton verre est plein Ta main tremble un peu - tu es joli, les cheveux attachés à moi. I like the sound that ice will make When your glass is full and your hand can't help but shake I'm not sure what is left to say Now the dinner's done and the sun's been put away I guess you may sense you should leave But you look so cute with your hair attached to me I hear the minutes tick their songs You should grab that hand And learn how to hold on To something Just laugh at the ending. |
"Monster Ballads," by Josh Ritter Radio waves are coming miles and miles Bringing only empty boats Whatever feeling they had when they sailed Somehow slipped out between the notes Out on the desert now and feeling lost The bonnet wears a wire albatross Monster ballads and the stations of the cross Sighing just a little bit Smiling just a little bit And I was thinking 'bout what Katy done Thinking 'bout what Katy did The fairest daughter of the Pharaoh's sun Dressed in gold beneath pyramids Out on the desert now and feeling lost The bonnet wears a wire albatross Monster ballads and the stations of the cross Sighing just a little bit Smiling just a little bit Ones and zeroes bleeding mesa noise And when you're empty there's so much space for them You turn it off but then a still small voice Comes in blazing from some vast horizon And I was thinking 'bout my river days I was thinking 'bout me and Jim Passing Cairo on a getaway With every steamboat like a hymn Out on the desert now and feeling lost The bonnet wears a wire albatross Monster ballads and the stations of the cross Sighing just a little bit Smiling just a little bit |

"Simple Things," by Paolo Nutini If you love the life you live Then you'll get a lot more done Be more inclined to take the reins Than turn away and run it's very rare it seems to get a lifetime guarantee, So I suppose self satisfaction be the key My father is a wealthy, self made man But his wealth does not consist of riches or acres of land Instead he has a family who are His biggest fans that's something that I one day hope to have So I'll cherish the simple things The easy took for granted things Like going round my Mum's house for my tea And argue with my sister, Only God knows how I missed her it's the simple things that mean the most to me Argh, he gets up each day at five Starts the car and makes the drive Shutters up, starts the fryers Serves out food to all the buyers in the town As they stand there in the same old line Get there every day at the same old time No, you never hear him grumble and groan Cause they're the people in the line that he built it on And like me he cherished the simple things The easy took for granted things Like going round his Mum's house for my tea And argue with his sister, Only God knows how he missed her it's the simple things that mean the most to him. |
"Here We Are," by Patrick Park Here we are with burning skin Where we've always been And we all collide In the rising tide Then weather in the wind We live our lives Like hands are tied And dead in days of dreaming Embrace the race Of every days But forsake the feeling Are we killing time While these days unwind? We can't see past our own sad stories And wonder what we're missing We can't see past our own sad stories And forget how to listen But did there ever come a time When things weren't so defined? We've given new names To our hopes and our pain But love just gets harder to find We wrestle with what we think we should say And hang ourselves out in the air But most of the time I think you'll find That we're just pretending to care And it's a crying shame How we get so trained We can't see past our own sad stories And wonder what we're missing We can't see past our own sad stories And forget how to listen We can't see past our own sad stories And wonder what it is we're doing We can't see past our own sad stories And forget who it is we're fooling Well, here we are with burning skin Where we've always been |
Shameless double post! "Lullaby + Exile," by M. Ward Oh, a trance is a spell With a thrill wrapped up inside it And try as you might to fight it Love will get you in the end And then the sound of a bell Could sound like angels crying Or sunlight multiplying Through Virgin Mary-stained glass And then a lullaby on Broadway Could sound like an exile out on Main Oh, when that curtain closes You'll be back in your seat again And then the band starts the ball When the chandelier starts glowing With or without you knowing Who the partner, what the dance Oh, a trance is a spell With a thrill wrapped up inside it And try as you might to fight it Love will get you in Love will get you in Love will get you in The end |
"Shine"- Anna Nalick Oh, the night makes you a star, And it holds you cold in its arms, You’re the one to whom nobody verses I love you, Unless you say it first. So you lie there, holding your breath, And its strange, how soon you forget That you’re like stars, They only show up when it’s dark, Cause they don’t know their worth. And I think you need to stop following misery’s lead, Shine away, shine away, shine away. Isn’t it time you got over how fragile you are? We’re all waiting, Waiting on your supernova, Cause that’s who you are, And you’ve only begun to shine. There are times when the poets and pornstars align, and You won’t know who to believe in. Well that’s a good time to be leavin’. And the past knocks on your door, And throws stones at your window at 4 in the morning, Well, maybe he thinks it’s romantic, He’s crazy, but you knew that before. And I think you need to stop following misery’s lead, Shine away, shine away, shine away. Isn’t it time you got over how fragile you are? We’re all waiting, Waiting on your supernova, Cause that’s who you are, And you’ve only begun to shine. Yeah you’ve only begun to shine. Won’t you shine, shine, shine, shine over shadow, Oh, oh. Shine, shine, shine, shine over shadow, Oh, oh. Shine, shine, shine, shine over... And I think you need to stop following misery’s lead, Shine away, shine away, shine away. Isn’t it time you got over how fragile you are? We’re all waiting, Waiting on your supernova, Cause that’s who you are, And you’ve only begun to shine. Yeah, you’ve only begun to shine, Yeah, you’ve only begun to shine, Yeah, you’ve only begun to shine. |
"We Don't Eat," by James Vincent McMorrow If this is redemption, why do I bother at all? There's nothing to mention and nothing has changed Still, I'd rather be working at something Than praying for the rain So I wander on 'til someone else is saved I moved to the coast, under a mountain Swam in the ocean, slept on my own At dawn, I would watch the sun Cut ribbons through the bay I'd remember all the things my mother wrote That we don't eat until your father's at the table And we don't drink until the devil's turned to dust Never once has any man I've met been able to love So, if I were you, I'd have a little trust Two thousand years, I've been in that water Two thousand years, sunk like a stone Desperately reaching for nets That the fishermen had thrown Trying to find a little bit of hope Me, I was holding all of my secrets soft and hid Pages were folded, then there was nothing at all So, if in the future I might need myself a savior I'll remember what was written on that wall That we don't eat until your father's at the table And we don't drink until the devil's turned to dust Never once has any man I've met been able to love So, if I were you, I'd have a little trust Am I an honest man and true? Have I been good to you at all? Oh, I'm so tired of playing these games We'd just be running down The same old lies, the same old stories Of breathless trains and worn-down glories Houses burning, worlds that turn on their own So we don't eat until your father's at the table And we don't drink until the devil's turned to dust Never once has any man I've met been able to love So, if I were you, my friend Learn to have just a little bit of trust |
Double post! "I Was Just Thinking," by Teitur I was just thinking That I have been missing you for way too long There's something inside this weary head That wants us to love just instead But I was just thinking, merely thinking I've got loads of pictures I've got the one of you in that dancing dress But man, I feel silly in that dim light Just after you doing you by the side Of my Kodak delights I am sinking, merely sinking I think about long distance rates Instead of kissing you, babe I'm a singer without a song If I wait for you longer, my affection is stronger I was just thinking, merely thinking That this boat is sinking Yeah, I'm tired of postcards Especially the ones with cute dogs and Cupids I'm tired of calling you and missing And dreaming that I've slept with you Don't get me wrong, I still desperately love you Inside this weary head, I just want us to love Just instead, but I was just thinking and thinking Merely thinking I think about long distances rates Instead of kissing you, babe And time is running me still If I wait for you longer, my affection is stronger I was just thinking, I said that I was just thinking That I'm tired of calling you once a week And thinking of long distance rates Instead of kissing you So baby, I'm sinking, merely sinking |
Runaway~Ladytron
<3Every new day that you start Plants a miniature flag in your heart Where're you waking up today My little runaway Every red eye that you cross Makes the next feel serious Where're you waking up today My little runaway Every silver shell that you crush Will be enough Where're you gonna sleep today My little runaway When you feel like everyone Wants to kill the unicorn Where're you waking up today My little runaway ... Speechless~Lady GaGa I can’t believe what you said to me Last night when we were alone You threw your hands up Baby you gave up, you gave up I can’t believe how you looked at me With your James Dean glossy eyes In your tight jeans with your long hair And your cigarette stained lies Could we fix you if you broke? And is your punch line just a joke? I’ll never talk again Oh boy you’ve left me speechless You’ve left me speechless, so speechless I can’t believe how you slurred at me With your half wired broken jaw You popped my heart seams On my bubble dreams, bubble dreams I can’t believe how you looked at me With your Johnnie Walker eyes He’s gonna get you and after he’s through There’s gonna be no love left to rye And I know that it’s complicated But I’m a loser in love So baby raise a glass to mend All the broken hearts Of all my wrecked up friends I’ll never talk again Oh boy you’ve left me speechless You’ve left me speechless so speechless I’ll never love again, Oh friend you’ve left me speechless You’ve left me speechless, so speechless Hooow? Haaaa-oooo-wow? H-ooow? Wow Haaaa-oooo-wow? H-ooow? Wow And after all the drinks and bars that we’ve been to Would you give it all up? Could I give it all up for you? And after all the boys and girls that we’ve been through Would you give it all up? Could you give it all up? If I promise, boy, to you That I’ll never talk again And I’ll never love again I’ll never write a song Won’t even sing along I’ll never love again So speechless You left me speechless, so speechless Why you so speechless, so speechless? Will you ever talk again? Oh boy, why you so speechless? You’ve left me speechless Some men may follow me But you chose death as company Why you so speechless? Oh oh oh |
This song is fun.
"Forgive Me," by The Dozen Dimes You wonder why I do the things I do Why I'm inclined to make things hard on you I'm mystified, I haven't got a clue Please forgive me, forgive me, forgive me I'm always lying and coming home past two Then I buy time with smiles and IOU's It's not a crime but since it bothers you Please forgive me, forgive me, forgive me I see the fire in your eyeballs when I talk to you Your friends all think that I'm a lost cause and it's probably true Why do you cry when these things bother you When I don't tie the laces on my shoes You act like I've spent my life sniffing glue Please forgive me, forgive me, forgive me |
"The Rose Captain," by Sea Wolf This part's for my love of old How the rose in your heart you hold Still, all the water in your wells Won't make it grow Oh, the call of the nightingale How I love beneath the ghostly sails We move like gypsies 'neath the mist And beneath the gloom Oh, how the river flows Under the ice and snow The keeper of the flame The rose captain knows my name This perfume breath I breathed For you, my dear, my love will never leave This part's for my love of new How the bulbs in my heart are true They send the shoots through my fingers Into your bones Oh, the call of the collared dove How I long to be your one true love We'll move like gypsies 'neath the stars And beneath the moon Oh, how the river flows Under the ice and snow The keeper of the flame The rose captain knows our names This perfume breath we breathed For you, my dear, my love will never leave Oh, the rose captain knows, knows our names Oh, the rose captain knows, he knows our names |
"Cape Canaveral," by Conor Oberst Oh, oh, oh brother totem pole I saw your legends lined up And I never felt more natural Apart, I just came apart Please, please, please sister Socrates You always answer with a question Show some kindness to a petty thief Forgive, you did forgive Watch the migrants smoke in the old orange grove And the red rocket blaze over Cape Canaveral You've been a father to me In 1960's speak In the comatose joy that we're on TV While the mountain's side was shining Wild colors of my destiny I watched your face age backwards Changing shape in my memory You told me victory's sweet Even deep in the cheap seats Hey, hey, hey mother interstate Can you deliver me from evil Make me honest make me wedding cake Atone, I will atone Wait, wait, wait mighty outer-space All that flying saucer terror Made me lazy drinking lemonade A waste, it just went to waste Like the Freon cold out the hotel door Or the white rocket fade over Cape Canaveral You've been a daughter to me Your buried shoe-box grief I felt your poltergeist love like savannah heat While the waterfall was pouring Crazy symbols of my destiny I watched your face die backwards Little baby in my memory You told me victory's sweet Even deep in the cheap seats And you don't judge me That's not your style But I won't see you for a little while And there's no worries Whose got time All these changes are going to fill your mind Like the citrus glow off the old orange grove Or the red rocket blaze over Cape Canaveral It's been a nightmare to me Some 1980's grief Gives me parachute dreams Like old war movies While the universe was drawn Perfect circles form infinity I watched the stars get smaller Tiny diamonds in my memory I know that victory is sweet Even deep in the cheap seats |
^I love that song, minus. "Looking In," by Brandi Carlile I went out looking for the answers And never left my town I'm no good at understanding But I'm good at standing ground And when I asked a corner preacher I couldn't hear him for my youth Some people get religion Some people get the truth I never get the truth I never get the truth I know that darkness pulls on you But it's just a point of view When you're outside looking in You belong to someone And when you feel like giving in Or the coming of the end Like your heart could break in two Someone loves you I laid a suitcase on my chest So I could feel somebody's weight And I laid you to rest Just to feel the give and take I got a new interpretation And it's a better point of view While you were looking for the landslide I was looking out for you I was looking out for you Someone's looking out for you I know that darkness pulls on you But it's just a point of view When you're outside looking in You belong to someone And when you feel like giving in Or the coming of the end Like your heart could break in two Someone loves you I am afraid of crossing lines I am afraid of flying blind Afraid of inquiring minds Afraid of being left behind I close my eyes, I think of you I take a step, I think of you I catch my breath, I think of you I cannot rest, I think of you My one and only wrecking ball And you're crashing through my walls When you're outside looking in You belong to someone And when you feel like giving in Or the coming of the end Like your heart could break in two Someone loves you |
Leona Lewis ~ The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face The first time ever I saw your face I thought the sun rose in your eyes And the moon and the stars were the gifts you gave To the dark and the empty skies The first time ever I kissed your mouth I felt the earth move in my hands Like the trembling heart of a captive bird That was there at my command my love The first time ever I lay with you I felt your heart so close to mine And I knew our joy would fill the Earth And last, and last, and last till the end of time The first time ever I saw your face Your face, Your face, Your face. |
"Lovers' Waltz," by A.A. Bondy Do you want to dance? Will you wear my ring? With you lay with me Until the final bullets sing? Over our heads, over our heads Then a lovers' waltz will turn until the end Will you marry me? Don't you want to spin? Will you run with me Until the ground folds us within? Over our heads, over our heads And a lovers' waltz will turn until the end And your shipwreck eyes, They sing to me As we ride a killer whale Across a diamond sea Over our heads, over our heads And a lovers' waltz will turn until the end And I will hang for you And you will hang for me And the Northern Lights Will take us in like refugees Over our heads, over our heads And a lovers' waltz will turn until the end |
Double post :P. "Life is a Song," by Patrick Park You say life is a dream where we can't say what we mean Maybe just some roadside scene that we're driving past There's no telling where we'll be in a day or in a week And there's no promises of peace or of happiness Well, is this why you cling to every little thing? And pulverize and derange all your senses? Maybe life is a song but you're scared to sing along Until the very ending Oh, it's time to let go of everything we used to know Ideas that strengthen who we've been It's time to cut ties that won't ever free our minds From the chains and shackles that they're in Oh, tell me, what good is saying that you're free In a dark and storming sea You're chained to your history, you're surely sinking fast You say that you know that the good Lord's in control He's gonna bless and keep your tired and oh-so restless soul But at the end of the day when every price has been paid You're gonna rise and sit beside him on some old seat of gold And won't you tell me why you live like you're afraid to die? You'll die like you're afraid to go Oh, it's time to let go of everything we used to know Ideas that strengthen who we've been It's time to cut ties that won't ever free our minds From the chains and shackles that they're in From the chains and shackles that they're in Well, life is a dream because we're all walking in our sleep You could see us stand in lines like we're dead upon our feet And we build our house of cards and then we wait for it to fall Always forget how strange it is just to be alive at all |
Artist: Emilie Autumn Song: Across the sky Album: Enchant See beyond the moment Think beyond the day Hear the word My voice will not be cast away Fatalistic fortune Ever near the end Love goes on But Time does not return again Across the sky I will come for you If you ask me to Demystify Your uncommon dreams Stranger things have come true Fear no more the midnight Fear no more the sea Close your eyes, regret nothing You're safe with me Look into the shadows Step into the mist Search your land but doubt never I still exist Ask yourself: is this all there is Take no answer but the one you find I have put my faith in aberrations of your kind But even if you're in my mind Should we hear the silence Should we hear the noise I don't need this blind acceptance I have made my choice Light lives in the darkness Beauty lives in pain In destruction we may lose ourselves But still I will remain Across the sky Across the sky See beyond the moment Think beyond the day Hear the word Hear the word |

Sara Bareilles ~ King of Anything
Keep drinkin' coffee Stare me down across the table While I look outside So many things I'd say if only I were able But I just keep quiet And count the cars that pass by You've got opinions, man We're all entitled to 'em But I never asked So let me thank you for time And try to not waste any more of mine Get out of here fast I hate to break it to you babe But I'm not drowning There's no one here to save Who cares if you disagree You are not me Who made you king of anything So you dare tell me who to be Who died And made you king of anything You sound so innocent All full of good intent You swear you know best But you expect me to Jump up on board with you Ride off into your dellusional sunset I'm not the one who's lost With no direction oh But you won't ever see You're so busy makin' maps With my name on them in all caps You got the talkin' down just not the listening And who cares if you disagree You are not me Who made you king of anything So you dare tell me who to be Who died And made you king of anything All my life I've tried To make everybody happy while I Just hurt And hide Waitin' for someone to tell me it's my turn To decide Who cares if you disagree You are not me Who made you king of anything So you dare tell me who to be Who died And made you king of anything Who cares if you disagree You are not me Who made you king of anything So you dare tell me who to be Who died And made you king of anything Let me hold your crown, babe |
"Professor et la Fille Danse," by Damien Rice Well, I don't know if I'm wrong 'Cause she's only just gone Here's to another relationship Bombed by my excellent breed of gamete disease I'm sure when I'm older I'll know what that means Cried when she should and she laughed when she could Here's to the man with his face in the mud And an overcast play just taken away From the lovers in love at the center of stage Loving is fine if you have plenty of time For walking on stilts at the edge of your mind Loving is good if your dick's made of wood And the dick left inside only half understood her What makes her come and what makes her stay? What makes the animal run, run away? What makes him stall, what makes him stand? And what shakes the elephant now? And what makes a man? No, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know No, I don't know you anymore No, no, no, no... I don't know if I'm wrong 'Cause she's only just gone Why the fuck is this day taking so long? I was a lover of time and once she was mine I was a lover indeed, I was covered in weed Cried when she should and laughed when she could Well, closer to God is the one who's lin love And I walk away 'cause I can Too many options may kill a man Loving is fine if it's not in your mind But I've fucked it up now, too many times Loving is good if it's not understood But I'm the professor and I feel that I should know What makes her come and what makes her stay? What makes the animal run, run away? What makes him tick apart from his prick? And the lonelier side of the jealousy stick? No, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know No, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know Hell, I don't know you anymore No, no, no, no... Well, I don't know if I'm wrong 'Cause she's only just gone Here's to another relationship Bombed by my excellent breed of gamete disease I finished it off with some French wine and cheese La fille danse quand elle joue avec moi Et je pense que je l'aime des fois Le silence, n'ose pas dis-donc Quand on est ensemble Mettre les mots Sur la petite dodo |

Evanescence - You
The words have been drained from this pencil, Sweet words that I want to give you. And I can't sleep, I need to tell you . . . Goodnight. When we're together I feel perfect, When I'm pulled away from you, I fall apart, All you say is sacred to me, Your eyes are so blue, I can't look away, As we lay in the stillness, you whisper to me: "Amy, marry me, promise you'll stay with me." "Oh, you don't have to ask me, You know you're all that I live for, You know I'd die just to hold you, stay with you, Somehow I'll show you, that you are my night sky, I've always been right behind you, Now I'll always be right beside you." (Instrumental) So many nights I've cried myself to sleep But now that you love me, I love myself. I never thought I would say this, I never thought there'd be . . . you. |
"Elephant," by Damien Rice This has got to die This has got to stop This has got to lie down Someone else on top You can keep me pinned But it's easier to tease But you can't paint an elephant Quite as good as she And she may cry like a baby And she may drive me crazy 'Cause I am lately lonely So why'd you have to lie? I take it I'm your crutch The pillow in your pillowcase It's easier to touch And when you think you've sinned Do you fall upon your knees? And do you sit within your picture? Do you still forget the breeze? And she may rise if I sing you down And she may wisely cling to the ground 'Cause I am lately horny So why would she take me horny? What's the point of this song, or even singing? You've already gone, why am I clinging? Well, I could throw it out and I could live without And I could do it all for you I could be strong Tell me if you want me to lie 'Cause this has got to die This has got to stop This has got to lie down, down With someone else on top You can both keep me pinned 'Cause it's easier to tease But you can't make me happy Quite as good as me Well, you know that's a lie |
Rabid, I absolutely adore that song.
"Signs," by Bloc Party Two ravens in the old oak tree and One for you and one for me and Bluebells in the late December I see signs now all the time The last time we slept together There was something that was not there You never wanted to alarm me But I'm the one that's drowning now I could sleep forever these days Because in my dreams I see you again But this time fleshed out, fuller faced In your confirmation dress It was so like you to visit me To let me know you were ok It was so like you to visit me You always worried about someone else At your funeral I was so upset So upset, so upset In your life you were larger than this Statue-statuesque I see signs now all the time That you're not dead, you're sleeping I believe in anything That brings you back home to me I see signs now all the time That you're not dead, you're sleeping I believe in anything That brings you back home to me |
"Turpentine," by Brandi Carlile I watch you grow away from me in photographs And memories like spies And salt betrays my eyes again I started losing sleep and gaining weight And wishing I was was ten again So I could be your friend again These days we go to waste like wine That's turned to turpentine It's 6am and I'm all messed up I didn't mean to waste your time So I'll fall back in line But I'm warning you we're growing up I heard you found some pretty words to say You found your little game to play And there's no one allowed in Then just when we believed we could be great Reality, it permeates It conquers from within again These days we go to waste like wine That's turned to turpentine Till it's 6am and I'm all messed up I didn't mean to waste your time So I'll fall back in line But I'm warning you, we're growing up Oh I know we're ok Oh I know we're ok These days we go to waste like wine That's turned to turpentine Till it's 6am and I'm all messed up I didn't mean to waste your time So I'll fall back in line But I'm warning you, we're growing up |
^I love Brandi Carlile, minus. Her cover of "Hallelujah" is absolutely otherworldly.
"I Can See the Pines Are Dancing," by A.A. Bondy This is a hammer This is a hymn This is a match To a ball of lies This is the blade This is the beauty These are the stars Raining down from the sky This is the light that shines And I can see the pines are dancing This is the leaving of another love This is the howling at the moon These are the arms you fell into I am a fire and I must burn today This is an echo This is the glory This is the pounding of a midnight heart This is the mountains This is the lightning This is the man pulling on his iron chains This is the light that shines And I can see the pines are dancing This is the leaving of another love This is the howling at the moon These are the arms you fell into I am a fire and I must burn today |
"Eagle On A Pole," by Conor Oberst Saw an eagle on a pole I think it was an eagle Watched its shadow fly across the cement I woke up in the snow All the trees were crowds of people No coat, no shoes, no idea where they went I followed the fence line thin Back where the yard begins My woman, she stood crying like a man Said, "Where have you been? Where have you been?" I thought you said all of that was done El cielo es azul Just don't go telling everyone Thought the kettle was a train Thought that Monday was a doorframe I tried so hard to finally settle down Heard the fire pop and snap Like a tack piano rag I never could get used to happy sounds But I hope the world's exposed A cruel and elaborate hoax That convinces me to walk without a cane But what can you do? What can you do? I always heard that what is done is done El cielo es azul Just don't go telling everyone The past don't ever quit There's boxes in the attic Baby shoes and taxidermy dreams While the ashes of the dead, like a dandelion head Explode and then are scattered by the breeze And it's such a long way back to the all the fun I had When nothing ever seemed to bother me But what can you do? Child, what can you do? Sleep beneath the stars and toil in the sun El cielo es azul Just don't go telling everyone El cielo es azul Just don't go telling everyone |
"Tiny Vessels," by Death Cab For Cutie This is the moment that you know That you told her that you loved her but you don't. You touch her skin and then you think That she is beautiful but she don't mean a thing to me. Yeah, she is beautiful but she don't mean a thing to me. I spent two weeks in Silverlake The California sun cascading down my face There was a girl with light brown streaks And she was beautiful but she didn't mean a thing to me. Yeah she was beautiful but she didn't mean a thing to me. Wanted to believe in all the words that I was speaking As we moved together in the dark And all the friends that I was telling And all the playful misspellings And every bite I gave you left a mark Tiny vessels oozed into your neck And formed the bruises That you said you didn't want to fade But they did and so did I that day All I see are dark grey clouds In the distance moving closer with every hour So when you ask "was something wrong?" That i think "you're damn right there is but we can't talk about it now. No, we can't talk about it now." So one last touch and then you'll go And we'll pretend that it meant something so much more But it was vile, and it was cheap And you are beautiful but you don't mean a thing to me Yeah you are beautiful but you don't mean a thing to me |
"Gardenia," by Landon Pigg & Mae Whitman I always liked the drama I always liked the joke I always liked the love And I always liked the smoke I've never been a poster-child of my days But I've sent a lot of post cards And yours is on its way I traded in my Pong hops for a bar right through my ear It kind of hurts to sleep on, but pain's not what I fear I shiver at the prospect of being just one thing I missed a lot of targets but never lost my aim I've done a lot of research I've read a lot of books I've turned a lot of pages I've seen some dirty looks But I can brave the weather For a chilly glance from you 'Cause somewhere in the distance The sun is peeking through I've always been a flower I've always been a tree A cabin in the forest A blanket on the beach Never in my whole life Would I choose just one I've always loved the moonlight I've always felt the sun Somewhere in the middle Of a sunset and a dream Is the prettiest gardenia The prettiest gardenia The prettiest gardenia That you've ever seen |
Welcome Home - Coheed and Cambria
You could've been all I wanted But you weren't honest Now get in the ground You choked off the surest of favors But if you really loved me You would've endured my world Well if you're just as I presumed A wh*re in sheep's clothing F****** up all I do And if so here we stop Then never again Will you see this in your life Hang on to the glory at my right hand Here laid to rest is our love ever longed With truth on the shores of compassion You seem to take premise to all of these songs You stormed off to scar the armada Like Jesus played martyr, I'll drill through your hands The stone for the curse you have blamed me With love and devotion, I'll die as you sleep But if you could just write me out To neverless wonder... happy will I become Be true that this is no option, So with sin I condemn you Demon play, demon out! Hang on to the glory at my right hand Here laid to rest is our love ever longed With truth on the shores of compassion You seem to take premise to all of these songs One last kiss for you One more wish to you Please make up your mind girl... I'd do anything for you One last kiss for you One more wish to you Please make up your mind girl... Before I hope you die |
"Hiding Place," by Aushua My face was long When I heard a whisper in her song And it pulled me by the wrist Like the words of a hypnotist Make the silence break Yeah, when they snap, you wake I heard it all before Promised not to anymore But I'm just listening to the breeze I ain't begging, saying please There ain't nothing wrong Trying not to bare the bone Trying hard to hide alone And she bursts into my room Carrying a Bible and a broom Screaming, "Let me in." But I'm just hearing her singing Heart's in trouble but it won't break 'Cause the whispers in the dark Oh, they never know your name I ain't saying I believe And I'm not saying you're to blame But you call this thing love I don't think they're the same It's just a hiding place Oh, on the island, just breathe It treats you kindly, but time Oh, no, it's never quite as sweet 'Til you're standing on the brink Of the open door Can't bring you in Ever since a child I've been Chasing an image in my head of... In my bed, under a cloud of sheets Yeah, I could always hear her singing My hands are tied but they won't stay 'Cause I'll chew on the ropes like they were sugarcane Won't stand there with fallen hands and silently wait 'Til you swear your eyes had seen what you never heard them say Can't erase this before it drives you insane And your knees and your whole soul start to tremble and shake And think of who you were before you gave it away And you spend all your money trying to feel the same Give me some of that hiding place |
"Soundtrack to the End," by Communist Daughter You put on a pretty face And we never saved our money And then we got stuck in place And I lost my milk and honey And all the songs were new And they broke our hearts in two While we walked away So I just pushed on through And I made my muscles move 'Cause I could never say And all our hearts were breaking There was music all around And the walls were always shaking 'Cause our love was the sound Our love was the sound We took six of one And nothing from the dozen I guess I'll never need another hand to stay awake Oh, get me right up to the brink I'll break one way or other Some of the best of us are already home Still singing softly through the stereo Although we tried to make the only amends Now it's just a soundtrack to the end And all the songs were new And they broke our hearts in two But we still walked away So I just pushed on through And I made my muscles move So I don't have to say That it's not right to carry on It might be old but she isn't gone And you never listened anyway All our hearts were breaking There was music all around And the walls were always shaking 'Cause our love was the sound Our love was the sound And all our hearts were breaking There was music all around And the walls were always shaking 'Cause our love was the sound |
"Lime Tree," by Bright Eyes I keep floating down the river, but the ocean never comes And since the operation, I heard you're breathing just for one Now everything's imaginary, especially what you love You left another message, said it's done It's done When I hear beautiful music, it's always from another time Old friends I never visit, I remember what they're like Standing on a doorstep full of nervous butterflies Waiting to be asked to come inside Just come inside But I keep going out I can't sleep next to a stranger When I'm coming down It's 8 A.M., my heart's beating too loud Too loud Don't be so amazing or I'll miss you too much I felt something that I had never touched Everything gets smaller now, the further that I go Towards the mouth and the reunion of the known and the unknown Consider yourself lucky if you think of it as home You can move mountains with your misery if you don't If you don't It comes to me in fragments, even those still split in two Under the leaves of that old lime tree, I stood examining the fruit Some were ripe and some were rotten, I felt nauseous with the truth There will never be a time more opportune So, I just won't be late The window closes, shocks roll over in a tidal wave And all the color drains out of the frame So pleased with a daydream that now living is no good I took off my shoes and walked into the woods I felt lost and found with every step I took |
"Something Vague," by Bright Eyes Now and again it seems worse than it is, But mostly the view is accurate. You see your breath in the air as you'll climb up the stairs To that coffin you call your apartment. And you sink in your chair, brush the snow from your hair And drink the cold away. And you're not really sure what you're doing this for But you need something to fill up the days. A few more hours. There's a dream in my brain that just won't go away. It's been stuck there since it came a few nights ago And I'm standing on a bridge in the town where I lived As a kid with my mom and my brothers. And then the bridge disappears and I'm standing on air With nothing holding me. And I hang like a star, fucking glow in the dark, For all those starving eyes to see, Like the ones we've wished on. But now I'm confused. Is this death really you? And do these dreams have any meaning? No. No, I think it's more like a ghost that's been following us both. Something vague that we're not seeing, Something more like a feeling. |
Double post! Third Bright Eyes song in a row, too.
"Nothing Gets Crossed Out," by Bright Eyes Well the future's got me worried Such awful thoughts My head's a carousel of pictures The spinning never stops I just want someone to walk in front And I'll follow the leader Like when I fell under the weight Of a schoolboy crush Started carrying her books And doing lots of drugs I almost forgot who I was But I came to my senses Now I'm trying to be assertive I'm making plans Going to rise to the occasion, yeah Meet all their demands But all I do is just lay in bed And hide under the covers Yeah, I know I should be brave But I'm just too afraid of all this change And it's too hard to focus Through all this doubt I keep making these to-do lists But nothing gets crossed out Working on the record seems pointless now When the world ends, who's gonna hear it? But I'm trying to take some comfort In written words Yeah, Tim, I heard your album And it's better than good When we get off tour I think we should Hang and black out together Because I been feeling sentimental For days gone by All the summers singing, drinking, my friend Wasting our time Remember all the songs and the way we smiled In those basements made of music But now I've got to crawl to get anywhere at all I'm not as strong as I thought So when I'm lost in a crowd I hope that you'll pick me out How I long to be found The grass grew high, I laid down Now I'm waiting for a hand To lift me up, help me stand I've been laying so low Don't want to lay here no more Don't want to lay here no more Don't want to lay here no more Don't want to lay here no more Everything that happens Is supposed to be And it's all predetermined Can't change your destiny Guess I'll just keep moving Someday maybe I'll get to where I'm going |
Let's make it four . "Land Locked Blues," by Bright Eyes If you walk away, I'll walk away But first, tell me which road you will take I don't want to risk our paths crossing someday So, you walk that way, I'll walk this way And the future hangs over our heads And it moves with each current event Until it falls all around like a cold, steady rain Just stay in when it's looking this way And the moon's laying low in the sky Forcing everything metal to shine And the sidewalk holds diamonds like a jewelry store case They argue, walk this way, no, walk this way And Laura's asleep in my bed As I'm leaving, she wakes up and says, "I dreamed you were carried away on the crest of a wave Baby, don't go away. Come here." And there's kids playing guns in the street And one's pointing his tree branch at me And so I put my hands up, I say, "Enough is enough. If you walk away, I'll walk away." And he shot me dead I found a liquid cure for my landlocked blues It would pass the way like a slow parade It's leaving, but I don't know how soon And the world's got me dizzy again You'd think after twenty-two years I'd be used to the spin And it only feels worse when I stay in one place So I'm always pacing around or walking away I keep drinking the ink from my pen And I'm balancing history books up on my head But it all boils down to one quotable phrase "If you love something, give it away." A good woman will pick you apart A box full of suggestions for your possible heart But you may be offended and you may be afraid But don't walk away, don't walk away We made love on the living room floor With the noise in the background from a televised war And in that deafening pleasure, I thought I heard someone say, "If we walk away, they'll walk away." But greed is a bottomless pit And our freedom's a joke, we're just taking a piss And the whole world must watch the sad comic display If you're still free, start running away Because we're coming for you! I've grown tired of holding this pose I feel more like a stranger each time I come home So I'm making a deal with the devils of fame Saying, "Let me walk away, please." You'll be free, child, once you have died From the shackles of language and measurable time And then we can trade places, play musical graves Until then, walk away, walk away, walk away So I'm up at dawn putting on my shoes I just want to make a clean escape I'm leaving, but I don't know where to I know I'm leaving, but I don't know where to |
Double post. "Run Off the Road," by Ola Podrida When you finally scaled the wall Thinking you had heard the siren singing What you really heard was a broken bird Making out like it's a dove When you stole the soldier's car Everybody knew what you were thinking Ivory towers and lover's flowers But no one thought you were a fool You never stopped to notice all The stolen clothes stacked in the hall From the others who've scaled the wall just to Find themselves run off the road When you showed up at the farm Visions of the summer flying past you The foxes had torn up The mother and her pups And the well was full of flies When you walked down to the pond Searching for the lover guiding you It had been filled in with rusty nails and then You finally knew that you were lost No one thought you were a fool Even though everone knew What you wrote was the same Just a different name Of those who escaped before you |
"Winter Winds," by Mumford & Sons
As the winter winds litter London with lonely hearts Oh the warmth in your eyes swept me into your arms Was it love or fear of the cold that led us through the night? For every kiss your beauty trumped my doubt And my head told my heart "Let love grow" But my heart told my head "This time no This time no" We'll be washed and buried one day my girl And the time we were given will be left for the world The flesh that lived and loved will be eaten by plague So let the memories be good for those who stay And my head told my heart "Let love grow" But my heart told my head "This time no" Yes, my heart told my head "This time no This time no" Oh the shame that sent me off from the God that I once loved Was the same that sent me into your arms Oh and pestilence is won when you are lost and I am gone And no hope, no hope will overcome And if your strife strikes at your sleep Remember spring swaps snow for leaves You'll be happy and wholesome again When the city clears and sun ascends And my head told my heart "Let love grow" But my heart told my head "This time no" And my head told my heart "Let love grow" But my heart told my head "This time no This time no" Gosh, I would have sold my soul to see them at Coachella. |
^ I love Mumford & Sons!
"Aquarius" - Regina Spektor Dear someone listening in the shadows I only talk to you sometimes And though I ask for help in riddles It is clearer in my mind, clearer in my mind Born of a sign that carries vessels But in a month that's cold as ice I know I question things too quickly But I have never questioned if I've loved Dear someone watching from the shadows I'm clenching water in my fists the drops, they slip right through my fingers But there's water on my lips, water on my lips Born of a sign that carries vessels But in a month that brings just ice I know I question things too quickly But I've never wondered if I've loved Dear someone watching from the shadows You've seen me lose all the water from my hands I'm not a skillful water carrier But the raindrops keep falling on my head, falling on my head Born of a sign that carries water But in a month that brings just ice I'm not a skillful water carrier But I've learned to carry love, learned to carry love... |
"Blue Lips," by Regina Spektor He stumbled into faith and thought God, there is all there is The pictures in his mind arose And began to breathe And all the gods and all the worlds Began colliding on a backdrop of blue Blue lips, blue veins He took a step but then felt tired He said I'll rest a little while But when he tried to walk again He wasn't a child And all the people hurried fast, real fast And no one ever smiled Blue lips, blue veins Blue, the color of our planet From far, far away Blue lips, blue veins Blue, the color of our planet From far, far away He stumbled into faith and thought God, there is all there is The pictures in his mind arose And began to breathe And no one saw and no one heard They just followed the lead The pictures in his mind arose And began to breathe And no one saw And no one heard they just followed the lead The pictures in his mind awoke And began to breed They started off beneath an olive tree And they chopped it down to make a picket fence And marching along the railroad tracks They smiled real wide for the camera lens As they made it past the enemy lines Just to become enslaved in the enemy lines Blue lips, blue veins Blue, the color of our planet From far, far away Blue lips, blue veins Blue, the color of our planet From far, far away Blue, the most human color [x3] Blue lips, blue veins Blue, the color of our planet From far, far away |
Simple Plan, Untitled.
I open my eyes
I try to see but I’m blinded by the white light I can’t remember how I can’t remember why I’m lying here tonight And I can’t stand the pain And I can’t make it go away No I can’t stand the pain How could this happen to me I made my mistakes I’ve got no where to run The night goes on As I’m fading away I’m sick of this life I just wanna scream How could this happen to me Everybody’s screaming I try to make a sound but no one hears me I’m slipping off the edge I’m hanging by a thread I wanna start this over again So I try to hold onto a time when nothing mattered And I can’t explain what happened And I can’t erase the things that I’ve done No I can’t How could this happen to me I made my mistakes I’ve got no where to run The night goes on As I’m fading away I’m sick of this life I just wanna scream How could this happen to me I made my mistakes I’ve got no where to run The night goes on As I’m fading away I’m sick of this life I just wanna scream How could this happen to me Please, don't drink drive. |
"Don't You Remember," by Adele When will I see you again? You left with no goodbye, not a single word was said No final kiss to seal anything I had no idea of the state we were in. I know I have a fickle heart and bitterness And a wandering eye, and a heaviness in my head But don't you remember, don't you remember? The reason you loved me before, Baby please remember me once more. When was the last time you thought of me? Or have you completely erased me from your memories? I often think about where I went wrong. The more I do, the less I know. But I know I have a fickle heart and bitterness And a wandering eye, and a heaviness in my head. But don't you remember, don't you remember? The reason you loved me before, Baby please remember me once more. I gave you the space so you could breathe, I kept my distance so you would be free, And hope that you find the missing piece To bring you back to me. Why don't you remember, don't you remember? The reason you loved me before, Baby please remember me once more. When will I see you again? |

"I Can Feel A Hot One," by The Manchester Orchestra I could feel a hot one taking me down For a moment, I could feel the force Veiny to the point of tears And you were holding on to make a point What's the point? I am but a clean man, stable and alone man Make it so I won't have to try The faces always stay the same So I'll face the fact that I'm just fine I said that I'm just fine I remember, head down After you had found out Manna is a hell of a drug And I need a little more, I think Because enough is never quite enough What's enough? I took it like a grown man crying on the pavement Hoping you would show your face But I haven't heard a thing you've said In at least a couple hundred days What'd you say? I was in the front seat, shaking it out And I was asking if you felt all right I never want to hear the truth I want to hear your voice, it sounded fine My voice is sounding fine I could feel my heartbeat taking me down And for the moment, I would sleep all right Veiny with a selfish fear To keep me up another restless night Another restless night The blood was dry, it was sober The feeling of audible cracks And I could tell it was over From the curtains that hung from your neck And I realized that then you were perfect With my teeth ripping out of my head And it looked like a painting I once knew Back when my thoughts were not the leak intact So I prayed for what I thought were angels Ended up being ambulances And the Lord showed me dreams of my daughter She was crying inside your stomach And I felt love again |
"Train Under Water," by Bright Eyes You were born inside of a raindrop And I watched you falling to your death And the sun, well, she could not save you She's falling down, too, the streets are wet Body of water, toxic and timeless Atlantic ocean, New York skyline I always get lost when I leave the village So I couldn't come meet you in Brooklyn last night But I sing glory from the lowest And I will say peace to the people I meet While the world waits for an explosion An instant of light that wipes the slate clean So don't be fooled, don't get lied to Love was always cruel Don't act strange, don't be a stranger It happened to me, now it's happening to you But if you take the train underwater Then we could talk it through Well, if I could tame all of my desires Wait out the weather that howls in my brain Because it seems that it's always changing The wind's indecision, the sorrowful rain I was a postcard, I was a record I was a camera until I went blind Now I'm riding all over this island Looking for something to open my eyes But I still sing glory from a high rise And I will say thanks if you're pouring my drinks While the world waits for an explosion That moment in time when we are set free So don't stay mad, just let some time pass And in the morning, you'll wake feeling new And if I don't come back I mean, if I get sidetracked It's only 'cause I wanted to I'm keeping up with the moon on an all night avenue |

"Business Time," by Flight of the Conchords
Aww Yeah Girl tonight we're gonna make love You know how I know? Because it's Wednesday And Wednesday night is the night that we usually make love Monday night is my night to cook Tuesday night we go and visit your mother But Wednesday we make sweet little love When everything is just right There's nothing good on tv You haven't had your after work social sport team practice So you are not too tired Oh, boy, it's all love You lean in and whisper something sexy like, "I might go to bed. I've got work in the morning." I know what you're trying to say baby. You're trying to say "Aww, yeah. It's business time.” It’s business It’s business time I know what you’re trying to say You're trying to say it's time for business, it's business time, oooh It's business It's business time Aww ohooowoah yeah, yeah Then in the bathroom brushing our teeth That's all part of the foreplay, i love foreplay Then you go sort out the recycling That isn't part of the foreplay, but it's still very important Next thing you know we're in the bedroom You're wearin' that baggy old ugly T-shirt you got from work several years ago Mmmm, you know the one, baby With the color stain I remove my clothes Very very clumsly Trippin over my jeans 'cause I'm still wearing my shoes But it's okay because I turn it all into a sexy dance. Next thing you know I'm wearing absolutely nothing Except for my socks And you know when I'm down to just my socks what time it is It's business time It's business It's business time When I'm down to my socks it's time for business That's why they're called business socks, oooh It’s business It’s business time Oooh, hoo hoo hoo oooh yeah, yeah Making love Making love for Makin love for two Making love for two minutes When it's with me you only need two minutes, because I'm so intense Two minutes in heaven is better than one minute in heaven You turn to me and say something sexy like, "Is that it?" I know what you’re trying to say, girl You're trying to say, "Aww yeah, that's it" And then you tell me you want some more Well, uh... I'm not surprised But I'm quite sleepy Mmm It's business It's business time Business hours are over, baby It's business It's business time Isn't it just such a beautiful song? :') |
Flight of The Conchords are awesome
I really wish my parents had this song to listen to years ago. Daughters - John Mayer I know a girl She puts the color inside of my world But she's just like a maze Where all of the walls are continually changed And I've done all I can To stand on her steps with my heart in my hands Now I'm starting to see Maybe it's got nothing to do with me Fathers, be good to your daughters Daughters will love like you do Girls become lovers who turn into mothers So mothers, be good to your daughters too Oh, you see that skin? It's the same she's been standing in Since the day she saw him walking away Now I'm left Cleaning up the mess he made So fathers, be good to your daughters Daughters will love like you do Girls become lovers who turn into mothers So mothers, be good to your daughters too Boys, you can break You'll find out how much they can take Boys will be strong And boys soldier on But boys would be gone without the warmth from A womans good, good heart On behalf of every man Looking out for every girl You are the guide and the weight of her world So fathers, be good to your daughters Daughters will love like you do Girls become lovers who turn into mothers So mothers, be good to your daughters too [x3] |
"Four Winds," by Bright Eyes Your class, your caste, your country, sect, your name, or your tribe There's people always dying trying to keep them alive There's bodies decomposing in containers tonight In an abandoned building where A squatter's made a mural of a Mexican girl With fifty cans of spray paint in a chemical swirl She's standing in the ashes at the end of the world Four winds blowing through her hair But when great Satan's gone, the whore of Babylon She just can't sustain the pressure where it's placed She caves The Bible's blind, the Torah's deaf, the Qur'an is mute If you burned them all together, you'd get close to the truth Still, they're poring over Sanskrit under Ivy League moons While shadows lengthen in the sun Cast on a school of meditation built to soften the times And hold us at the center while the spiral unwinds It's knocking over fences, crossing property lines Four winds cry until it comes And it's the sum of man, slouching towards Bethlehem A heart just can't contain all of that empty space It breaks, it breaks, it breaks Well, I went back, I rent a Cadillac and company jet Like a newly orphaned refugee, retracing my steps On the way to Cassadaga to commune with the dead They said, "You'd better look alive." And I was off to old Dakota where a genocide sleeps In the black hills, the badlands, the calloused East I buried my ballast, I made my peace Heard four winds leveling the pines But when great Satan's gone, the whore of Babylon She just can't remain with all that outer space She breaks, she breaks, she caves, she caves |
Quelqu'un m'a dit by Carla Bruni On me dit que nos vies ne valent pas grand chose, Elles passent en un instant comme fanent les roses. On me dit que le temps qui glisse est un salaud Que de nos chagrins il s'en fait des manteaux Pourtant quelqu'un m'a dit Que tu m'aimais encore, C'est quelqu'un qui m'a dit que tu m'aimais encore. Serais ce possible alors ? On me dit que le destin se moque bien de nous Qu'il ne nous donne rien et qu'il nous promet tout Parais qu'le bonheur est à portée de main, Alors on tend la main et on se retrouve fou Pourtant quelqu'un m'a dit Que tu m'aimais encore, C'est quelqu'un qui m'a dit que tu m'aimais encore. Serais ce possible alors ? Mais qui est ce qui m'a dit que toujours tu m'aimais? Je ne me souviens plus c'était tard dans la nuit, J'entend encore la voix, mais je ne vois plus les traits "Il vous aime, c'est secret, lui dites pas que j'vous l'ai dit" Tu vois quelqu'un m'a dit Que tu m'aimais encore, Me l'a t'on vraiment dit que tu m'aimais encore, Serais ce possible alors ? On me dit que nos vies ne valent pas grand chose, Elles passent en un instant comme fanent les roses On me dit que le temps qui glisse est un salaud Que de nos tristesses il s'en fait des manteaux, Pourtant quelqu'un m'a dit Que tu m'aimais encore, C'est quelqu'un qui m'a dit que tu m'aimais encore. Serais ce possible alors ? |
...Because I Spit Hot Fire by You, Me, And Everyone We Know The sweat soaks his shirt and he's feeling his blood thin out and thie pulse we've built outside this epidermis keeps his charm en route pedals to the floor like my hips press to yours there's a whisper from your lips "lets go" you don't stand a chance i'm as stealthy as a slow gas leak by the time that you know you'll have succomb to me i've never seen such a battle to open one door you're batting eyes as he's taking his time as we're playing out the last notes to your culling song pedals to the floor like my hips press to yours there's a whisper from your lips "lets go" you don't stand a chance I'm a rush much like passing notes cos i'm keeping the secrets you'd all die to know but have no shame these boundaries called waistlines are bound to be broken sometime |
This is such a beautiful song, and the music video is so haunting. My favorite group ever.
(The original song is in Korean, but I included the English translation on here). "It Hurts" - 2NE1 You wear the shoes I gave you and walk the streets with her As if it were nothing, you kiss her You spray the cologne I gave you and embrace her You'll probably repeat those promises you made to me with her It seems that we're already too late Has our love already ended? Please say anything to me We truly loved each other Can't we turn back? (I'm the only one hurting tonight) Have you changed? Am I no longer in your heart now? When I, I think about you It hurts, hurts, hurts so much You look at my tears as if it were nothing You continue to talk calmly again You told me cruely that you couldn't deny That you had absolutely no attachments or regrets Are we already too late? Is our love over? Even if it's a lie, please tell me it isn't so I can do better now Though we can't meet again (I'm the only one in pain tonight) Have you changed? Am I no longer in your heart now? When I, I think about you It hurts, hurts, hurts so much You're no longer your old self Because the you I loved And the you now are so different Are you that shocked? I just stood and cried Watching you go further away No way I can't recognize You're not mine anymore Did you have to change? Can't you come back? Did you really have to change? Can't you come back? Did you have to change? Can't you come back? Why did you have to change? Can't you keep loving me? Oh, is this the end? Am I no longer in your heart now? When I, I think about you It hurts, hurts, hurts so much It hurts, it hurts (It hurts, it hurts) |
"Bad Day," by Darwin Deez I hope that the last the page of your 800-page novel is missing I hope that it rains if you leave the window down on your red Mustang 'Cause everyday ought to be a bad day for you And if you drop your keys I hope there's a sewer somewhere very nearby If you're out of clean sheets I hope your new girl takes off and it's clear why Everyday ought to be a bad day for you And I would like to be your girlfriend so I could dump you And I would like to be your garbage man so I would never have to pick up your trash again Maybe you should wonder why your apartment is always so empty Well I hope you get locked out of that apartment and have to call Jenny (Ohhhhh) 'Cause everyday ought to be a bad day for you But I'm sorry if it ever is |
"Jesus, Etc.," by Wilco Jesus, don't cry You can rely on me, honey You can combine anything you want I'll be around You were right about the stars Each one is a setting sun Tall buildings shake Voices escape, singing sad sad songs Tuned to chords strung down your cheeks Bitter melodies turning your orbit around Don't cry You can rely on me, honey You can come by any time you want I'll be around You were right about the stars Each one is a setting sun Tall buildings shake Voices escape, singing sad sad songs Tuned to chords strung down your cheeks Bitter melodies turning your orbit around Voices whine Skyscrapers are scraping together Your voice is smoking Last cigarettes are all you can get Turning your orbit around Our love Our love Our love is all we have Our love Our love is all of God's money Everyone is a burning sun Tall buildings shake Voices escape, singing sad sad songs Tuned to chords strung down your cheeks Bitter melodies turning your orbit around Voices whine Skyscrapers are scraping together Your voice is smoking Last cigarettes are all you can get Turning your orbit around Last cigarettes are all you can get Turning your orbit around Last cigarettes are all you can get Turning your orbit around |
Free Bird, by Lynyrd Skynyrd If I leave here tomorrow Would you still remember me? For I must be traveling on, now 'Cause there's too many places I've got to see But, if I stayed here with you, girl Things just couldn't be the same 'Cause I'm as free as a bird now And this bird, you'll can not change Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh And the bird you cannot change And this bird you cannot change Lord knows, I can?t change Bye, bye, baby it's been a sweet love Yeah, yeah Though this feeling I can't change But please don't take it so badly 'Cause the Lord knows I'm to blame But, if I stayed here with you girl Things just couldn't be the same 'Cause I'm as free as a bird now And this bird, you'll can not change Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh And this bird you cannot change And this bird you cannot change Lord knows, I can't change Lord help me, I can't change Lord I can't change Won't you fly high, free bird, yeah? |
"Casimir Pulaski Day," by Sufjan Stevens Goldenrod and the 4H stone The things I brought you When I found out you had cancer of the bone Your father cried on the telephone And he drove his car into the Navy yard Just to prove that he was sorry In the morning, through the window shade When the light pressed up against your shoulder blade I could see what you were reading All the glory that the Lord has made And the complications you could do without When I kissed you on the mouth Tuesday night at the Bible study We lift our hands and pray over your body But nothing ever happens I remember at Michael's house In the living room when you kissed my neck And I almost touched your blouse In the morning, at the top of the stairs When your father found out what we did that night And you told me you were scared All the glory when you ran outside With your shirt tucked in and your shoes untied And you told me not to follow you Sunday night when I cleaned the house I found the card where you wrote it out With the pictures of your mother On the floor at the great divide With my shirt tucked in and my shoes untied I am crying in the bathroom In the morning when you finally go And the nurse runs in with her head hung low And the cardinal hits the window In the morning in the winter shade On the first of March, on the holiday I thought I saw you breathing All the glory that the Lord has made And the complications when I see his face In the morning in the window All the glory when he took our place But he took my shoulders and he shook my face And he takes and he takes and he takes |
Guernica by Brand New. <3 Beautiful song.
"Ever since I was young your word is the word that always won. Worry and wake the ones you love. A phone call I'd rather not receive. Please use my body while I sleep. My lungs are fresh and yours to keep, kept clean and they will let you breathe. Is this the way a toy feels when its batteries run dry? I am the watch you always wear but you forget to wind. Nobody plans to be half a world away at times like these, so I sat alone and waited out the night. The best part of what has happened was the part I must have missed. So I'm asking you to shine it on and stick around, I'm not writing my goodbyes. I submit no excuse. If this is what I have to do I owe you every day I wake. If I could I would shrink myself, and sink through your skin to your blood cells, and remove whatever makes you hurt but I am too weak to be your cure. Is this the way a toy feels when its batteries run dry? I am the watch you always wear but you forget to wind. Nobody plans to be half a world away at times like these, so I sat alone and waited out the night. The best part of what has happened was the part I must have missed. So I'm asking you to shine it on and stick around, I'm not writing my goodbyes. I'm not letting you check out. You will beat this starting now and you will always be around. I'm there to monitor your breathing I will watch you while you're sleeping. I will keep you safe and sound. Does anybody remember back when you were very young? Did you ever think that you would be this blessed? Nobody plans to be half a world away at times like these, so I sat alone and waited out the night. The best part of what has happened was the part I must have missed. So I'm asking you to shine it on and stick around, I'm not writing my goodbyes. " |

"Marigold," by Jackie Greene So much depends on first loves and friends Legs for a table And I, I painted my room With judgments and doom But I still ain't able to sleep Got to sleep And dream up some dreams I can keep Oh my, my marigold, marigold I was walking at dawn When something turned on But I couldn't name it So I, I went back home I did it alone But I couldn't claim it I tried, yes I tried I tried, honey, I was denied Oh my, my marigold, marigold Well, everything becomes much more meaningless As time passes by So I hide in the bedroom with strong curtains drawn So I can't look the world in the eye I heard you were well I heard that you fell Back on your feet Well me, I'm still in fear I planted her here Right in the street To sleep, so she sleeps And dreams with the orphans and freaks Oh my, my marigold, marigold Now talk, talk it is cheap I talk in my sleep I know what to say I said, I said you were wise To let go of my eyes And push me away And run, yes you run You run, honey, nothing gets done Oh my, my marigold, marigold But all that I've learned It must be a chemical change After all, I'm no different from the next twisted talker Who's taking his lies to the grave I wasn't myself I was nobody else That I couldn't be Like you were nobody, too To somebody who's exactly like me So sleep, let her sleep And dream up the dreams we can keep Oh my, my marigold, marigold |
"To All the Lights in the Windows," by Conor Oberst Moses up on the mountainside What a place to meet He brought his pad and his pencil Poured himself some gypsy tea And all the world's multiplicity They turn his brain and his soul to stone He drew his face on a tablet And carried it back home Jesus off in the water Standing on his feet Yeah, that's the thing about charisma It makes everyone believe But there is nothing impossible When I'm with you and when you're with me I got a sad sinking feeling That that can never be But I'm going to do what I can for you I will make a plea To all the lights in the windows The puddles in the streets And all the lovers that you've been teasing From your balcony May they carry you far from my memory Solomon heard a protest From the lower court Reached in his ear for a silver dollar Just like he'd done before He tossed it high Said that wisdom's fickle And chance is God's retort And handed them a sentence It was death by Trojan horse Pharaoh woke from a bad dream Splashed some water on his face When it's a matter of nightmares you had Better ask a slave And he may tell you a famine's coming Or he may look away If he's kind then return it Let him lick your plate But I'm going to do what I can for you I will make a plea To all the birds in the chimneys The whales up on the beach And all the footsteps that you've been hearing Like a timpani May they carry you far from your enemies But I'm going to do what I can for you I will make a plea To all the lights in the windows The puddles in the streets And all the hours that you've been sitting At your vanity May they carry you far from your misery May they carry you far Jesus off in the water Standing on his feet Yeah, that's the thing about charisma It makes everyone believe That there is nothing impossible When I'm with you and when you're with me I got a sad sinking feeling That will never be |
Higher Love I can taste more than feel
Depeche ModeThis burning inside is so real I can almost lay my hands upon The warm glow that lingers on Moved, lifted higher Moved, my soul's on fire Moved, by a higher love I surrender all control To the desire that consumes me whole And leads me by the hand to infinity That lies in wait at the heart of me Moved, lifted higher Moved, my soul's on fire Moved, by a higher love Heaven bound on the wings of love There's so much that you can rise above Moved, lifted higher Moved, moved, by a higher love By a higher love I surrender heart and soul Sacrificed to a higher goal Moved, moved by a higher love By a higher love |
Where The Wild Roses Grow, By Kylie Minogue feat. Nick Cave
CHORUS: They call me The Wild Rose But my name was Elisa Day Why they call me it I do not know For my name was Elisa Day From the first day I saw her I knew she was the one As she stared in my eyes and smiled For her lips were the colour of the roses They grew down the river, all bloody and wild When he knocked on my door and entered the room My trembling subsided in his sure embrace He would be my first man, and with a careful hand He wiped the tears that ran down my face CHORUS On the second day I brought her a flower She was more beautiful than any woman I'd seen I said, 'Do you know where the wild roses grow So sweet and scarlet and free?' On the second day he came with a single rose Said: 'Will you give me your loss and your sorrow?' I nodded my head, as I layed on the bed He said, 'If I show you the roses will you follow?' CHORUS On the third day he took me to the river He showed me the roses and we kissed And the last thing I heard was a muttered word As he stood smiling above me with a rock in his fist On the last day I took her where the wild roses grow And she lay on the bank, the wind light as a thief As I kissed her goodbye, I said, 'All beauty must die' And lent down and planted a rose between her teeth CHORUS Anna Molly, by Incubus A cloud hangs over this city by the sea. I watch the ships pass and wonder if she might be Out there and sober as well from loneliness. Please do persist girl, it's time we met and made a mess . I pictured your face at the back of my eyes, A fire in the attic, a proof of the prize! Anna Molly, Anna Molly, Anna Molly. A cloud hangs over and mutes my happiness, A thousand ships couldn't sail me back from distress. Wish you were here, I'm a wounded satellite. I need you now. Put me back together, make me right. I pictured your face at the back of my eyes, A fire in the attic, a proof of the prize! Anna Molly, Anna Molly, Anna Molly. I'm calling your name up into the air. Not one of the others could ever compare. Anna Molly, Anna Molly! Wait... there is a light... there is a fire... Illuminated attic. Fate. Or something better? I couldn't care less, Just stay with me a while. Wait... there is a light... there is a fire, Defragmenting the attic, Fate? Or something better? I couldn't care less, Just stay with me a while. I pictured your face at the back of my eyes, A fire in the attic, a proof of the prize! Anna Molly, Anna Molly, Anna Molly. I'm calling your name up into the air. Not one of the others could ever compare. Anna Molly, Anna Molly! Wait... there is a light... there is a fire Defragmenting the attic, Fate? Or something better? I could care less, Just stay with me a while |
"Right Where It Belongs" by Nine Inch Nails
See the animal in his cage that you built Are you sure what side you're on? Better not look him too closely in the eye Are you sure what side of the glass you are on? See the safety of the life you have built Everything where it belongs Feel the hollowness inside of your heart And it's all Right where it belongs [Chorus:] What if everything around you Isn't quite as it seems? What if all the world you think you know Is an elaborate dream? If you look at your reflection Is it all you wanna be? What if you could look right through the cracks? Would you find yourself Find yourself afraid to see? What if all the world's inside of your head Just creations of your own? Devils and your gods All the living and the dead And you're really all alone? Well, you can live in this illusion You can choose to believe You keep looking but you can't find the woods While you're hiding in the trees [Chorus:] What if everything around you Isn't quite as it seems? What if all the world you used to know Is an elaborate dream? And if you look at your reflection Is it all you want to be? But if you could look right through the cracks Would you find yourself Find yourself afraid to see? |
"Transatlanticism," by Death Cab For Cutie The Atlantic was born today, and I'll tell you how: The clouds above opened up and let it out. I was standing on the surface of a perforated sphere When the water filled every hole. And thousands upon thousands made an ocean, Making islands where no island should go. Oh no. Most people were overjoyed; they took to their boats. I thought it less like a lake and more like a moat. The rhythm of my footsteps crossing floodlands to your door Have been silenced forever more. The distance is quite simply much too far for me to row It seems farther than ever before Oh no. I need you so much closer I need you so much closer So come on, come on |
''Speak Now'' by Taylor Swift :lovestruc :lovestruc :lovestruc I'm not the kind of girl Who should be rudely barging in On a white veil occasion But you are not the kind of boy Who should be marrying the wrong girl I sneak in and see your friends And her snotty little family All dressed in pastel And she is yelling at a bridesmaid Somewhere back inside a room Wearing a gown shaped like a pastry This is surely not What you thought it would be I lose myself in a daydream Where I stand and say Don't say yes, run away now I'll meet you when you're out Of the church at the back door Don't wait or say a single vow You need to hear me out And they said "speak now" Fond gestures are exchanged And the organ starts to play A song that sounds like a death march And I am hiding in the curtains It seems that I was uninvited By your lovely bride-to-be She floats down the aisle Like a pageant queen. But I know you wish it was me You wish it was me (Don't cha?) Don't say yes, run away now I'll meet you when you're out Of the church at the back door Don't wait or say a single vow You need to hear me out And they said "speak now" Don't say yes, run away now I'll meet you when you're out Of the church at the back door Don't wait or say a single vow Your time is running out And they said, "speak now" Oh Oh Oh! ( said speak now.... ) I hear the preacher say "Speak now or forever ho-old your pea-ea-ea-eace There's the silence, there's my last chance I stand up with shaking hands, all eyes on me Horrified looks from Everyone in the room But I'm only looking at you.

Why so dead?
"Nobody's Perfect" ~ Jessie J When I'm nervous, I have this thing, yeah, I talk too much, Sometimes, I just can't shut the hell up. It's like I need to tell someone, anyone who'll listen, And that's where I seem to f*ck up, yeah. I forget about the consequences, for a minute there I lose my senses, And in the heat of the moment, my mouth starts going, the words start flowing But I never meant to hurt you, I know it's time that I learnt to Treat the people I love, Like I wanna be loved This is a lesson learnt , I hate that I let you down, and I feel so bad about it. I guess karma comes back around cause now I'm the one that's hurting, yeah, And I hate that I made you think that the trust we had is broken, So, don't tell me you can't forgive me Cause nobody's perfect, No(x7), nobody's perfect. If I could turn back the hands of time, I swear I never would've crossed that line. I should of kept it between us, But, no I went and told the whole world how I feel and, oh, So I sit and I realise with these tears falling from my eyes, I gotta change if I wanna keep you forever, Promise that I'm gonna try! But I never meant to hurt you, I know it's time that I learnt to Treat the people I love, Like I wanna be loved This is a lesson learnt , I hate that I let you down, and I feel so bad about it. I guess karma comes back around cause now I'm the one that's hurting, yeah, And I hate that I made you think that the trust we had is broken, So, don't tell me you can't forgive me Cause nobody's perfect, No(x7), nobody's perfect. I'm not a saint, no, not at all, but, what I did, it wasn't cool, But I swear that I'll never do that again to you! I'm not a saint, no, not at all, but, what I did, it wasn't cool, But I swear that I'll never do that again to you! I hate that I let you down, and I feel so bad about it. I guess karma comes back around cause now I'm the one that's hurting, yeah, And I hate that I made you think that the trust we had is broken, So, don't tell me you can't forgive me Cause nobody's perfect, no, And I hate that I let I hate that I let you down, and I feel so bad about it.

Shinkirou by LOVEHOLIC (Shinkirou means mirage or dream)
The secrets in my dreams tell me
About the sorrows that I’ll come across I must yearn for mercy Your pained appearance and my greeting A gaze that was shut as if tired I don’t wish for anything more than these The sickened promise is stinking and hidden; I never knew… A dream that I can’t recover My memories grew dim My pains became dull and my heart cracked My burnt out soul is simply a cooled mountain of ash My tears are filled with pain, ha… So tell me… tell me… the reason why… How can you do this to me… You break my heart… And you make me cry… In the expressionless, final moonlight Covered in muddied excuses The warmth that embraced you Vanished without a trace; You’ll never know… Within the endless pain There’s the belated regret that was left behind And the flowers of love that disappear meaninglessly… So tell me… tell me… the reason why… How can you do this to me… You break my heart… And you make me cry… This is a korean song originally but the lyrics really hit home |
"Waltz #2," by Elliott Smith First the mic, then a half cigarette Singing "Cathy's Clown" That's the man she's married to now That's the girl that he takes around town She appears composed, so she is, I suppose Who can really tell? She shows no emotion at all Stares into space like a dead china doll I'm never going to know you now But I'm gonna love you anyhow Now she's done and they're calling someone Such a familiar name I'm so glad that my memory's remote Because I'm doing just fine hour to hour, note to note Here it is, the revenge to the tune "You're no good, You're no good, you're no good, you're no good." Can't you tell that it's well understood? I'm never going to know you now But I'm gonna love you anyhow I'm here today and I'm expected to stay On and on and on I'm tired I'm tired Looking out on the substitute scene Still going strong XO, Mom It's okay, it's alright, nothing's wrong Tell Mr. Man with the impossible plans to just leave me alone In the place where I make no mistakes In the place where I have what it takes I'm never going to know you now But I'm gonna love you anyhow I'm never going to know you now But I'm gonna love you anyhow I'm never going to know you now But I'm gonna love you anyhow |
Roman's Revenge~Nikki Minaj feat. Eminem
I ain’t into S&M, but my whip’s off the chain
A little drop of candy paint drips off the frame Twisted-a*s mind, got a pretzel for a brain An eraser for a head, f****n’ pencil for a frame You don’t like it then peel off, b***h Every last woman on Earth I’ll kill off, and I still wouldn’t f**k you, s**t So wipe the smile on your grill off, I swear to god I’ll piss a Happy Meal off Yes it is longer but I didn't wanna (does that count as text talk :S) but they are my favorit lyrics from the song. |
"I Must Belong Somewhere," by Bright Eyes Leave the bright blue door on the whitewashed wall Leave the death ledger under City Hall Leave the joyful air in that rubber ball today Leave the lilac print on the linen sheet Leave the birds you killed at your father's feet Let the sideways rain and the crooked street remain Leave the whimpering dog in his cold kennel Leave the dead star lilt on her pedestal Leave the acid kids in their green fishbowls today Just leave the sad guitar in its hard-shelled case Leave the worried look on your lover's face Let the orange embers in the fireplace remain Because everything, it must belong somewhere A train off in the distance, bicycle chained to the stairs Everything, it must belong somewhere I know that now, that's why I'm staying here Leave the ocean's roar in its turquoise shell Leave the widower in his private hell Leave the liberty in that broken bell today Leave the epic poem on its yellow page Leave the gray macaw in his covered cage Let the traveling band on the interstate remain Because everything, it must belong somewhere Soundstage in California, televisions in Times Square Everything, it must belong somewhere I know that now, that's why I'm staying here I know that now, that's why I'm staying here Leave the secret talks on the trundle bed Leave the garden tools in the rusted shed Leave those bad ideas in your troubled head today Leave the restless ghost in his old hotel Leave the homeless man out in his cardboard cell Let the painted horse on the carousel remain Because everything, it must belong somewhere Just like the gold around his finger or the silver in his hair Everything, it must belong somewhere I know that now, that's why I'm staying here In truth, the forest hears each sound Each blade of grass as it lies down The world requires no audience No witnesses, no witnesses Leave the old town drunk on his wooden stool Leave the autumn leaves in the swimming pool Leave the poor black child in his crumbling school today Leave the novelist in his daydream tune Leave the scientist in his Rubik's Cube Let the true genius in the padded room remain Leave the horse's hair on the slanted bow Leave the slot machines on the river boat Leave the cauliflower in the casserole today Leave the hot, bright trash in the shopping malls Leave the hawks of war in their Capitol Let the organ's moan in the cathedral remain Because everything, it must belong somewhere They locked the devil in the basement, threw God up into the air Everything, it must belong somewhere And you know it's true, I wish you'd leave me here You know it's true, why don't you leave me here? |
