LCD Soundsystem - Someone Great
I wish that we could talk about it,
But there, that's the problem.
With someone new I couldn't start it,
Too late, for beginnings.
The little things that made me nervous,
Are gone, in a moment.
I miss the way we used to argue,
Locked, in your basement.
I wake up and the phone is ringing,
Surprised, as it's early.
And that should be the perfect warning,
That something's, a problem.
To tell the truth I saw it coming,
The way, you were breathing.
But nothing can prepare you for it,
The voice, on the other, end.
The worst is all the lovely weather,
I'm stunned, it's not raining.
The coffee isn't even bitter,
Because, what's the difference?
There's all the work that needs to be done,
It's late, for revision.
There's all the time and all the planning,
And songs, to be finished.
And it keeps coming,
And it keeps coming,
And it keeps coming,
Till the day it stops
And it keeps coming,
And it keeps coming,
And it keeps coming,
Till the day it stops
And it keeps coming,
And it keeps coming,
And it keeps coming,
Till the day it stops
And it keeps coming,
And it keeps coming,
And it keeps coming,
And it keeps coming,
And it keeps coming,
And it keeps coming,
And it keeps coming,
Till the day it stops.
I wish that we could talk about it,
But there, that's the problem.
With someone new I could have started,
Too late, for beginnings.
You're smaller than my wife imagined,
Surprised, you were human.
There shouldn't be this ring of silence,
But what, are the options?
When someone great is gone.
When someone great is gone.
When someone great is gone.
When someone great is gone.
When someone great is gone.
When someone great is gone.
When someone great is gone.
When someone great is gone.
We're safe, for the moment.
Saved,
For the moment.
Modest Mouse- Paper Thin Walls
These walls are paper thin
And everyone hears every little sound
Everyone's a voyeur, it's them watching me
Watch them watch me right now
They're shaking hands, they're shaking in their shoes
Oh Lord, don't shake me down
Everyone wants two of them
And half of everyone else who's around
It's been agreed, the whole world stinks
So no one's taking showers anymore
Laugh hard, it's a long way to the bank
I can't be blamed for nothing anymore
It's been a long time since you've been around
Laugh hard it's a long way to the bank
Tow the line to tax the time, you know
That you don't owe
I can't be a fool for everyone that I don't know
These walls are paper thin
And everyone hears every little sound
Everyone's a voyeur, it's them watching me
Watch them watch me right now
They're shaking hands, they're shaking in their shoes
Oh Lord, don't shake me down
Everyone wants two of them
And half of everyone else who's around
It's been agreed, the whole world stinks
So no one's taking showers anymore
Laugh hard, it's a long way to the bank
Tow the line to tax the time, you know
That you don't owe
I can't be a fool for everyone that I don't know
so much sugar, so much happy.
The White Stripes - We're Going To Be Friends
Fall is here, hear the yell
Back to school, ring the bell
Brand new shoes, walking blues
Climb the fence, books and pens
I can tell that we're going to be friends
I can tell that we're going to be friends
Walk with me, Susie Lee
Through the park and by the tree
We will rest upon the ground
And look at all the bugs we found
Safely walk to school without a sound
Safely walk to school without a sound
Here we are, no one else
We walked to school all by ourselves
There's dirt on our uniforms
From chasing all the ants and worms
We clean up and now it's time to learn
We clean up and now it's time to learn
Numbers, letters, learn to spell
Nouns and books and show and tell
At playtime we will throw the ball
Back to class, through the hall
Teacher marks our height against the wall
Teacher marks our height against the wall
We don't notice any time pass
We don't notice anything
We sit side by side in every class
Teacher thinks that I sound funny
But she likes the way you sing
Tonight I'll dream while I'm in bed
When silly thoughts go through my head
About the bugs and alphbet
And when I wake tommorow I'll bet
That you and I will walk together again
I can tell that we're going to be friends
I can tell that we're going to be friends
All these songs bring back really vivid memories of me and my girl before she passed away...
Bereavement is a darkness impenetrable to the imagination of the unbereaved. ~Iris Murdoch
Your girlfriend's silence might be her loudest scream.
If you still have more dreams than regrets, congratulations. You haven't gotten old yet.
Spend every moment like it's your last. Hug her, kiss her, hold her, like it's the last time that you ever will. Because it might be.
Iceage, One of the best punk bands on the planet right now. They emerged from the Danish scene as 18-19 yr old's on their first album, "New Brigade". This is the first x song off the second album, which is incredible,"Your Nothing". Check out the lyrics and how vocalist Elias Bender Rønnenfelt enunciates them!
Iceage - Ecstasy
Now there just passed on another day
Where I really wanted to get away
From the problems that I built up
Can only see one way to make it stop
Unable - I'm too bound
I wanna Get away from what Ive found
Each day another rock upon my head
Each night I lie awake in bed
What shade
Of joy
Will hit
Me first
I hope
It lasts
A burst
In bliss
Pressure
Oh god no
Pressure
Adorned in carnal ecstasy
A hazy focus blurs and sharpens sight
Now my senses are leading me
A mere blow of wind could turn me into light
Hands everywhere covering me
Feels so overwhelming I can't breathe
But bliss is momentary anyhow
Yet worth living for - take me now
What shade
Of joy
Will hit
Me first
I hope
It lasts
A burst
In bliss
Pressure
Oh god no
Pressure.
