Samson by Regina Spektor

You are my sweetest downfall
I loved you first, I loved you first
Beneath the sheets of paper lies my truth
I have to go, I have to go
Your hair was long when we first met

Samson went back to bed
Not much hair left on his head
He ate a slice of wonder bread and went right back to bed
And history books forgot about us and the bible didn't mention us
And the bible didn't mention us, not even once

You are my sweetest downfall
I loved you first, I loved you first
Beneath the stars came fallin' on our heads
But they're just old light, they're just old light
Your hair was long when we first met

Samson came to my bed
Told me that my hair was red
Told me I was beautiful and came into my bed
Oh I cut his hair myself one night
A pair of dull scissors in the yellow light
And he told me that I'd done alright
And kissed me 'til the mornin' light, the mornin' light
And he kissed me 'til the mornin' light

Samson went back to bed
Not much hair left on his head
Ate a slice of wonderbread and went right back to bed
Oh, we couldn't bring the columns down
Yeah we couldn't destroy a single one
And history books forgot about us
And the bible didn't mention us, not even once

You are my sweetest downfall
I loved you first

Almost Lover by A Fine Frenzy

Your fingertips across my skin
The palm trees swaying in the wind
Images
You sang me Spanish lullabies
The sweetest sadness in your eyes
Clever trick


Well, I never want to see you unhappy
I thought you'd want the same for me

Goodbye, my almost lover
Goodbye, my hopeless dream
I'm trying not to think about you
Can't you just let me be?
So long, my luckless romance
My back is turned on you
Should've known you'd bring me heartache
Almost lovers always do

We walked along a crowded street
You took my hand and danced with me
Images
And when you left, you kissed my lips
You told me you would never, never forget
These images

No

Well, I'd never want to see you unhappy
I thought you'd want the same for me

Goodbye, my almost lover
Goodbye, my hopeless dream
I'm trying not to think about you
Can't you just let me be?
So long, my luckless romance
My back is turned on you
Should've known you'd bring me heartache
Almost lovers always do

I cannot go to the ocean
I cannot drive the streets at night
I cannot wake up in the morning
Without you on my mind
So you're gone and I'm haunted
And I bet you are just fine

Did I make it that
Easy to walk right in and out
Of my life?

Goodbye, my almost lover
Goodbye, my hopeless dream
I'm trying not to think about you
Can't you just let me be?
So long, my luckless romance
My back is turned on you
Should have known you'd bring me heartache
Almost lovers always do

"I'll Do Anything (Acoustic)," by Jason Mraz
I love his lyrics... they're so inventive

Go make your next choice be your best choice
And if you're looking for a boy with a voice
Well, baby, I'm single
Are you in the mood for some dude?
Or are you in the mood to be subdued?
Or would you rather just mingle?
I just bumped the mic with my head tonight
And I said that's alright, that's alright
'Cause I'm not the one wearing the headphones, you are

Say, I'll do what I can do
I'll do anything spontaneously

We can keep chilling like ice cream filling
We can be cool in the gang if you'd rather hang
It ain't no thing, and I can be lucubrious with you
I got no ifs and ors, no wits or whats about it
But this place is getting crowded and my house is two blocks away
Or maybe closer

I would if I could, I would do anything spontaneously
You know that I would if I could
I would do anything spontaneously

If you could be nimble, you'd have it simple just like me
So go and try it, do not deny yourself your freedom
So step on up to the plate, get a date with Mraz
See, you better act fast because supplies, they never last
And did you know that this is a limited time offer?
So go make your mind up before our time's up
And now you better start winding it up because the party's almost over
And if you should know, girl, I can move it just a little bit slower

See how I would do? If I could, I would do
I would do anything spontaneously
You know that I would, oh, if I could
I would do anything spontaneously
With you

"Viva la Vida" by Coldplay

I used to rule the world
Seas would rise when I gave the word
Now in the morning I sleep alone
Sweep the streets I used to own
I used to roll the dice
Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes
Listen as the crowd would sing:
"Now the old king is dead! Long live the king!"
One minute I held the key
Next the walls were closed on me
And I discovered that my castles stand
Upon pillars of salt, and pillars of sand

I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing
Roman Catholic choirs are singing
Be my mirror my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field
For some reason I can't explain
Once you go there was never, never an honest word
That was when I ruled the world

It was the wicked and wild wind
Blew down the doors to let me in.
Shattered windows and the sound of drums
People couldn't believe what I'd become
Revolutionaries Wait
For my head on a silver plate
Just a puppet on a lonely string
Oh who would ever want to be king?

I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing
Roman Catholic choirs are singing
Be my mirror my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field
For some reason I can't explain
I know Saint Peter won't call my name
Never an honest word
But that was when I ruled the world

Hear Jerusalem bells are ringing
Roman Catholic choirs are singing
Be my mirror my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field
For some reason I can't explain
I know Saint Peter will call my name
Never an honest word
But that was when I ruled the world

Louder than Thunder by The Devil Wears Prada

What would it take
For things to be quiet
Quiet like the snow
I know, this isn't much
But I know I could, I could be better

I don't think I deserve it,
Selflessness
Find your way into my heart
All stars could be brighter
All hearts could be warmer

What would it take
For things to be quiet
Quiet like the snow
Are we meant to be empty handed
I know I could, I could be better

I dont think I deserve it
Selflessness
Find your way into my heart
All stars could be brighter
All hearts could be warmer

What would it take
What would it take

What would it take, for things to be quiet

"The Boy Who Blocked His Own Shot," by Brand New (an old favorite)

If it makes you less sad, I will die by your hand
I hope you find out what you want, already know what I am
And if it makes you less sad, we'll start talking again
You can tell me how vile you already know that I am
I'll grow old, start acting my age
Be a brand new day in a life that you hate
A crown of gold, a heart that's harder than stone
And it hurts a whole lot, but it's missed when it's gone

Call me a safe bet, I'm betting I'm not
I'm glad that you can forgive
I'm only hoping that as time goes
You can forget

If it makes you less sad, I'll move out of the state
You can keep to yourself, I'll keep out of your way
If it makes you less sad, I'll take your pictures all down
Every picture you paint, I will paint myself out
It's cold as a tomb and it's dark in your room
As I sneak to your bed to pour salt in your wounds
So call it quits or get a grip, you say you wanted a solution
You just wanted to be missed

Call me a safe bet, I'm betting I'm not
I'm glad that you can forgive
I'm only hoping that as time goes
You can forget
So you can forget
You can forget

You are calm and reposed, let your beauty unfold
Pale white like the skin stretched over your bones
Spring keeps you ever close, you are secondhand smoke
You are so fragile and thin, standing trial for your sins
Holding onto yourself the best you can
You are the smell before rain
You are the blood in my veins

Call me a safe bet, I'm betting I'm not
I'm glad that you can forgive
I'm only hoping that as time goes
You can forget

Baby Boy - Big Brovaz

From the day that I saw you
I knew that we would pursue
Cause the chemistry
we felt that day
Felt so real, and so true
Looking back on a year
we spent together
How it’s been, what
we went through
Although we’ve had our
little ups and downs
We’ve still pulled through

Baby girl you’re my
world my everything
I wanna lace you with
diamonds and every ring
Give you everything you
dream and fantasize
Cause you can tell me
that you love me
Looking in my eyes
You keep it real with me,
I keep it real with you
You keep on loving me,
I’ll keep on loving you
Keep doing what you do,
I feel your whole aura
And I can’t wait to hook up
again tomorrow baby - what

My love for you will never end
You’ll always be a part of me
As long as time keeps
on passing by
You’ll always be my baby boy.

Everytime I look at you,
I can’t believe
I’ve found a love so true (and)
I took my time to put
my trust in you
I must admit it was so hard to do
And every minute that I
spend with you
You make me believe I
have nothing to loose and
Deep down I always knew
that you would be mine

Do you believe in destiny
Because I got a funny feeling
this was meant to be
Without you I’d be lost,
I need you next to me
Preferably in the house full
of luxuries and little kids
From day one I was sprung,
knew you was gonna be one
Cause my heart spoke for the
very first time in a long while
And every time you smile, I can see us walking up the aisle with you
carrying my child C’mon

If you were to go, I don’t know
You’re the only one who
sweeps me off my feet
Makes my soul go weak
The only one who makes
my heart wanna beat and I,
I could never live without you
You know that what I feel
has to be true
Cause you’re my, my sweet love

Ever since the first time,
that I looked into your eyes
I knew that you were
gonna be mine
Feeling you from the inside,
when you’re not by my side
You’re the only girl
that’s on my mind
I never knew a love like
this, a love so strong
A vision so picture perfect
it could never be wrong
Along the way, you’re gonna
see you belong with Jay
I might have to marry you
one day baby eh..

"If You Don't Wanna Love Me," by James Morrison

When you lower me down
So deep that I can't get out
And when you're lost, lost and alone
Yes, you'd think it was the last place
You'd come back for more

If you don't want me to leave
Then don't push me away
You'd rather blow out the lights
You can watch it all fade
But I'm going nowhere

I'm gonna stay
When you just wanna fight
When you're closing your eyes
'Cause you don't wanna love me
I'm gonna stay
You can't push me too far
There's no space in my heart
Where I don't wanna love you

And when there's no, no storm
Then how can I feel the calm?
If there's nothing, nothing, nothing left to lose
Then what is this feeling
That keeps on bringing me back to you?

So I'm gonna stay
When you just wanna fight
When there's tears in your eyes
'Cause you don't wanna love me
So I'm gonna stay, yes I will
You can't push me too far
There's no space in my heart
Where I don't wanna love you

If you asked me to leave
And I walked away
We'd still be alone
And we'd still be afraid
I'm going nowhere
I'm going nowhere

'Cause I'm gonna stay
When you just wanna fight
And there's tears in your eyes
'Cause you don't wanna love me
I'm gonna stay
All the tears that I've cried
I could leave them to dry
If you don't wanna love me
I could leave them to dry
If you don't wanna love me

"Since You've Asked," by Judy Collins

What I'll give you since you asked
Is all my time together;
Take the rugged sunny days,
The warm and Rocky weather,
Take the roads that I have walked along,
Looking for tomorrow’s time,
Peace of mind.

As my life spills into yours,
Changing with the hours
Filling up the world with time,
Turning time to flowers,
I can show you all the songs
That I never sang to one man before.

We have seen a million stones lying by the water.
You have climbed the hills with me
To the mountain shelter,
Taken off the days one by one,
Setting them to breathe in the sun.

Take the lilies and the lace
From the days of childhood,
All the willow winding paths
Leading up and outward,
This is what I give,
This is what I ask you for;
Nothing more.

Motion Sickness - Call the Cops!

How does it feel to be alone?
(I see inside your eyes)
You wanna be here with me and my own
(See inside your eyes)
It's cause a lie, the truth, that's fine, we never know
The truth is what I'm after
And I know the sign I'm searching for won't show
And I sing about what I dream about
And my dream's loving you tonight
And I have no doubt the words that I shout
And scream so loudly late at night

When I don't think that I can handle
Know I think that you'll be fine
I've never met another lover who would love me the way that you did
Baby, ooh, you're different

Feels like I've been kicked in the chest
And I know you never cared
Because you're just like all the rest, Baby
I sing about what I dream about
And my dream's loving you tonight
And I have no doubt the words that I shout
And scream so loudly late at night

Do you believe all those lies that she told you?
Late at night, when she told you she loved you, she lied


When I don't think that I can handle,
Know I think that you'll be fine
I've never met another lover who would love me the way that you did
Baby, ooh, you're different

Come on, come on, won't you get close to me
Come on, come on, won't you get close to me
(Why don't you)
Come on, come on, won't you get close to me
(Why don't you)
Come on, come on, won't you get close to me
(Why don't you)
Come on, come on, won't you get close to me
(Why don't you)
Come on, come on, won't you get close to me
(Why don't you)

When I don't think that I can handle
Know I think that you'll be fine
I've never met another lover who would love me the way that you did
Baby, ooh, you're different.

"Adventures in Solitude," by The New Pornographers

Balancing on one wounded wing
Circling the edge of the never ending
The best of the vanished marvels
Have gathered outside your door

More than begin, but less than forget
But spirits born from the not happened yet
Gathering there to pay off a debt
Brought back from the wars

We thought we lost you
We thought we lost you
We thought we lost you
It will all come back

Sleeping for years, pick through what is left
Through the pieces that fell and rose from the depth
From the rainwater well, deep as a secret nobody knows

Less than forget but more than begun
These adventures in solitude are never done
To the names of our wounds
We send the same blood back from the wars

We thought we lost you
We thought we lost you
We thought we lost you
It will all come back

I know you want to run far away
From one more and that it's coming at a bad time
Some cold place, heartless ways for all we know

I know you need to breathe through
Come back, come too, but it's coming at a bad time
Tangled day, for all we know

I know you want to run far away
From one more and that it's coming at a bad time
Some cold race, heartless ways for all we know

I know you need to breathe through
Come back, come too, but it's coming at a bad time
Old scarred face, survivor's guilt, for all we know

"Lilac Wine," by Jeff Buckley

I lost myself on a cool, damp night
I gave myself in that misty light
Was hypnotized by a strange delight
Under a lilac tree
I made wine from the lilac tree
Put my heart in its recipe
It makes me see what I want to see
And be what I want to be

I think more than I want to think
And do things I never should do
I drink much more than I oughta drink
Because it brings me back you

Lilac wine is sweet and heady like my love
Lilac wine, I feel unsteady like my love
Listen to me, I cannot see clearly
Is that she coming to me nearly?

Lilac wine is sweet and heady, where's my love?
Lilac wine, I feel unsteady, where's my love?
Listen to me, why is everything so hazy?
Isn't that she, or am I just going crazy?

Lilac wine, I feel unready, my love
I feel unready, my love

Disenchanted by My Chemical Romance--

Well, I was there on the day
They sold the cars for the queen,
And when the lights all went out,
We watched our lives on the screen.
I hate the ending myself
But it started with an alright scene.

It was the roar of the crowd
That gave me heartache to sing.
It was a lie when they smiled
And said "You won't feel a thing".
And as we ran from the cops,
We laughed so hard it would sting.
Yeah, yeah!
Oh!

If I'm so wrong (so wrong, so wrong),
How can you listen all night long (all night long, night long)?
Now will it matter after I'm gone?
Because you never learned a goddamn thing!

It is the sad song
With nothin' to say,
About a lifelong
Wait for a hospital stay.
Well, if you think that I'm wrong,
This never meant nothin' to ya.

I spent my highschool career,
Spit on and shove to agree,
So I can watch all my heroes
Sell a car on TV.
Bring out the old guillotine,
We'll show 'em what we all mean.
Yeah, yeah!
Oh!

If I'm so wrong (so wrong, so wrong),
How can you listen all night long (all night long, night long)?
Now will it matter after I'm gone?
Because you never learned a goddamn thing!

It is the sad song
With nothin' to say,
About a lifelong
Wait for a hospital stay.
Well, if you think that I'm wrong,
this never meant nothin' to ya.

So go, go, go!
Just go!
Run away!
But where did you run to?
And were did you hide?
Go find another way,
Price you pay.

Woah!

Woah!

Woah!

Woah, woah, woah!

It is the sad song
With nothin' to say,
About a lifelong
Wait for a hospital stay.
Well, if you think that I'm wrong,
This never meant nothin' to ya.

Come on!

It is the sad song
With nothin' to say,
About a lifelong
Wait for a hospital stay.
Well, if you think that I'm wrong,
This never meant nothin' to ya.

At all ...
At all ...
At all ...
At all ...

Paparazzi - Lady Gaga

We are the crowd
We're coming out
Got my flash on it's true
Need that picture of you
It's so magical
We'd be so fantastic, oh

Leather and jeans
Garage glamorous

Ready for those flashing lights
'Cause you know that baby I-

I'm your biggest fan
I'll follow you until you love me

Baby you'll be famous
Chase you down until you love me
Papa-Paparazzi

I'll be your girl backstage at your show
Velvet ropes and guitars
Yeah cause you're my rockstar in between the sets
Eyeliner and cigarettes

Shadow is burnt, yellow dance and return
My lashes are dry - purple teardrops I cry
It don't have a price
Loving you is Cherry Pie
'Cause you know that baby I
I'm your biggest fan
I'll follow you until you love me

Snap-snap, to that sh!t on the radio
Don't stop, for anyone
We're plastic but we still have fun

Papa-Paparazzi
Baby there's no other superstar
You know that I'll be your

When I'm Sixty-Four - The Beatles

When I get older, losing my hair
Many years from now,
Will you still be sending me a valentine?
Birthday greetings, bottle of wine?

If I've been out 'til quarter-to-three
Would you lock the door?
Will you still need me,
Will you still feed me,
When I'm sixty-four?

You'll be older too
And if you say the word,
I could stay with you.

I could be handy mending a fuse
When your lights are gone.
You can knit a sweater by the fireside.
Sunday mornings, go for a ride.

Doing a garden, digging the weeds.
Who could ask for more?
Will you still need me,
Will you still feed me,
When I'm sixty-four?

Ev'ry summer we can rent a cottage in the Isle of Wight,
If it's not too dear.
We shall scrimp and save.
Grandchildren on your knee,
Vera, Chuck and Dave.

Send me a postcard, drop me a line
Stating point of view.
Indicate precisely what you mean to say.
You're sincerely wasting away.

Give me your answer, fill in a form,
Mine forevermore.
Will you still need me,
Will you still feed me,
When I'm sixty-four?

"Mama, You've Been on My Mind," by Bob Dylan

Perhaps it's the color of the sun cut flat
And covering the crossroads I'm standing at
Or maybe it's the weather or something like that
But Mama, you've been on my mind

I mean no trouble, please don't put me down, don't get upset
I am not pleading or saying that I can't forget you yet
I do not pace the floor bowed down and bent
But yet, Mama, you've been on my mind

Even though my eyes are hazy and my thoughts, they might be narrow
Where you've been don't bother me or bring me down with sorrow
I don't even mind who you'll be waking with tomorrow
But Mama, you've been on my mind

I'm not asking you to say words like yes or no
Please understand me, I have no place I'm calling you to go
I'm just whispering to myself so that I can pretend that I don't know
But Mama, you've been on my mind

When you wake up in the morning and you look inside your mirror
You know I won't be next to you, you know I won't be near
I'd just be curious to know if you can see yourself as clear
As someone who has had you on his mind

You are a saint, PharaohHound .

"It Doesn't Always Have to be Beautiful," by Slow Club

She said the sleepers on the tracks have woken up
It's the end of the line, I guess our luck is up
It was fun while it lasted, but nothing ever does
Love lost its meaning, it was wasted on us

In the electrical storm, you were running wild
You had a death wish, you were a child
I came to bearing a lightning bolt
If you came back as the deep sea, I would come back as the salt

It's like your head's stuck in a tightening vise
Your ears are deaf to your friends' advice
'Cause you know that your heart will never be full
It doesn't always have to beautiful unless it's beautiful

Okay leave now, leave now if you just can't stay
Because there's nothing worse than somebody pretending away
The years of their youth they will never get back
So I'll go home and practice the traits you've said I lack
Like listening to the thunder of your heart
And how with every other beat, we grow further apart
Love was always gonna be hard to give up
But I'm thinking that you'll never love anybody else as much

But it's ugly, it's ugly now, yeah, I know
Because you never give things enough time to grow
It's like driving through a carnival
It doesn't always have to be beautiful unless it's beautiful

Baby, I know it's over
Don't tell me, please
Wait until you're sober
We know it's true
Waiting never quite felt like waiting
When waiting was with you

Baby, I know it's over
Don't tell me, please
Wait until you're sober
We know it's true
Waiting never quite felt like waiting
When waiting was with you

So let me tell you, tell you a thing or two
About how to survive when there's a me and a you
It's awful, it's gruesome, it's something, it's cruel
Forever you will ask, how did this happen to you?
'Cause I'm always thinking, thinking about where you are
Who you're with and if your mind is far
From what we do when we're alone
It's all too much for me and now the wall hits the phone

It's like your head's stuck in a tightening vise
Your ears are deaf to your friends' advice
'Cause you know that your heart will never be full
It doesn't always have to beautiful unless it's beautiful

Baby, I know it's over
Don't tell me, please
Wait until you're sober
We know it's true
Waiting never quite felt like waiting
When waiting was with you

Baby, I know it's over
Don't tell me, please
Wait until you're sober
We know it's true
Waiting never quite felt like waiting
When waiting was with you

Ordinary by Train which I am currently listening to. From the Spider Man 2 Soundtrack.

Whose eyes am I behind
I don’t recognize anything that I see
Whose skin is this design
I don’t want this to be the way that you see me

I don’t understand anything anymore
In this world that I’m tired of
Is taking me right up these walls
That I climb up
To get to your story
It’s anything but ordinary

And when the world is on its knees with me its fine
And when I come to the rescue I get nothing but left behind
Everybody seems to be getting what they need where's mine
‘Cause your what I need so very but I'm anything but ordinary

Can you save me from this world of mine
Before I get myself arrested with this expectation
You are the one look what you’ve done
What have you done?
This is not some kind of joke
You’re just a kid
You weren’t ready for what you did

And when the world is on its knees with me its fine
And when I come to the rescue I do it for you time after time
Everybody seems to be getting what they need where's mine
‘Cause you what I need so very but I'm anything but ordinary

I think I'm trying to save the world from you
You’ve been saving me too
We could just stay in and save each other

I'm anything but ordinary
(ordinary)
I'm anything but ordinary
(ordinary)

"Astair," by Matt Costa

Astair, your glare is killing me
Astair in skies of blue
The signs you wear are making me
So confused

But the mountains and the trees
Are they just what you need?
Or are they less than what
You'd expect to see

And if you're leaving, well come
Give me a reason why I let you down
Before you turn around, now
Now before you turn around

Astair, you're there and I'm still here
I swear that I'm so confused
The signs you wear are making me
Feel like I'm the one to lose

But the canyons and the seas
Are they just what you need?
Or are they less than what
You'd expect to see

And if you're leaving, well come
Give me a reason why I let you down
Before you turn around now, now
Before you turn around now, now

But the mountains and the trees
Are they what you perceive?
Or are they less than what
You'd expect to see

And if you're leaving, well come
Give me a reason why I let you down
Before you turn around now, now
Before you turn around, Astair

[i]Water's running in the wrong direction
Got a feelin' it's a mixed up sign
I can see it in my only reflection
Something funny's going on inside my mind

Don''t know what
Is wishing me a higher
Something steady from the floor below
And then it drops
And catches like fire

It's the sound aih
It's the sound aih
It's the sound of the underground
The beat of the drums goes round and round
Listen to the overflow
And the girls get down to the sound of the rainbow
(Continues on, I won't finish it)
~Sound of the Underground; Girls Aloud~

Holy shit, PharaohHound, you are amazing :O

"Gone" by Jack Johnson

Well look at all those fancy clothes
But these could keep us warm
Just like those.
And what about your soul
Is it cold
Is it straight from the mould
And ready to be sold.

And cars and phones and diamond rings
Bling, bling
Those are only removable things
And what about your mind
Does it shine or
Are there things that concern you more
Than your time

Gone going
Gone everything
Gone give a damn
Gone be the birds when they don’t want to sing
Gone people
All awkward with their things
Gone

Look at you out to make a deal
You try to be appealing but you lose your appeal
And what about those shoes you’re in today
They’ll do no good
On the bridges you burnt along the way

You’re willing to sell anything
Gone with your herd
Leave your footprints
And we’ll shame them with our words

Gone people
All careless and consumed
Gone
Gone going
Gone everything
Gone give a damn
Gone be the birds if they don’t want to sing
Gone people
All awkward with their things
Gone

Double posting, I had to :P

"Wake Up" by Malcolm Middleton

When I wake up, I wake up alone.
I sit and I wait and listen for the phone.
Only when you're near me do I feel at home.
Now you're not with me and I want you to come home.


And I'll do the best I can
but I'm a liar, I don't have a plan.
And I'll do my best for you but I'm hopeless,
I don't have a clue.

When I fuck up, I fuck up so good.
I make mistakes and best laid plans can be misunderstood.
Sometimes when you're near me I still feel alone,
So put your arms around me then I'll be back home.

And I'll do the best I can.
I might be pissed but I'll lend a hand.
And you know you'll be safe in the night,
I'll be awake and coughing by your side.

Don't try to tell me that I'm good coz I know better,
I can call people with the proof.
You need never lock your door
I'll never sleep because you snore
And I've never wanted more than I've wanted you.

And I'll do the best I can but I'm a liar,
I don't have a plan.
And I'll do my best for you but I'm hopeless,
I don't have a clue.
And I'll be there when I can.
I might be pissed but I'll lend a hand
And you know you'll be safe in the night,
I'll be awake and coughing by your side.

"Christmas Is Interesting" - Jonathan Coulton

You have put on your feety pajamas
It's time for a long winter's nap
There's a knock on the door and a stranger is there
He wants you to sit on his lap
He takes your watch and he gives you a hairbrush
Your wife gets a wig on a chain
He says he can't stay
'Cause he's got a long way to go
And it's starting to rain

Christmas is interesting
Like a knife in your heart
Christmas is interesting
How it tears you apart
Christmas is interesting
Like a stick in your eye
It's so freaking interesting
That it might make you cry

So you're an elf, but you'd rather be a dentist
Maybe you're a train with square wheels
Maybe you're a squirt gun that only shoots jam
Now you know how Jesus feels
He is riding a sleigh he calls Rosebud
His mansion is lonely and cold
He can't remember a pleasant December
When he wasn't tired and old

Christmas is interesting
Like a knife in your heart
Christmas is interesting
How it tears you apart
Christmas is interesting
Like a stick in your eye
It's so freaking interesting
That it might make you cry

So you're drunk and your name is Jimmy Stewart
You once had a wonderful life
Then you lost all your money, you cracked up your car
You yelled at your favorite wife
You go to bed and you wait for Jacob Marley
He comes to make you feel brave
But under his cloak he is nothing but smoke
And a finger that points at your grave

Christmas is interesting
Like a knife in your heart
Christmas is interesting
How it tears you apart
Christmas is interesting
Like a stick in your eye
It's so freaking interesting
That it might make you cry

Fully Alive - Flyleaf
Telling Layla's story spoken
'Bout how all her bones are broken
Hammers fall on all the pieces
Two months in the cover creases

Fully alive
More than most
Ready to smile and love life
Fully alive and she knows
How to believe in futures

All my complaints shrink to nothing
I'm ashamed of all my somethings
She's glad for one day of comfort
Only because she has suffered

Fully alive
More than most
Ready to smile and love life
Fully alive and she knows
How to believe in futures

Fully alive
More than most
Ready to smile and love life
Fully alive and she knows
How to believe in futures

Fully alive
More than most
Ready to smile and love life
Fully alive and she knows
How to believe in futures
