All the days of my life ever since I've been born never heard a man speak like this man before

The Mars Volta - Goliath

_______________________________________________________________

That night I remember what you slipped in my glass
We came rewinding when
I foamed at the mouth while the lights winked at me
And now my shape is kept
The rain it can't hide, wash the pain from this hex
Is it so permanent?
Did she catch a left eye when it blinks three times
Or once just to seal you in
In your drunken breath did it stain like us
In place of poison heat
I gotta rid this world of your intention
Swap the corpse in the casket

Give me that corpse please
The one that tore nightly
I really want it now
Fold the arms slowly
Don't want you to hold me
It fits just like a glove
Does he make you feel alright?

When I seep inside your truth through suspicious little coughs
You sank your nails inside a key while the door you shut closed up
The black stockings you kept smell of wet cigarette
Torn of lust that you could not keep
I have slept inside your fault to have you keep me hear on this leash
For the rest of your pets I will feed to this theft
As we consumate the vows of defeat
And when you pray for an end to this I do believe this is eternity

Give me that corpse please
The one that tore nightly
I really want it now
Fold the arms slowly
Don't want you to hold me
It fits just like a glove
Your closet is bulging
White marrow withholding
Does he make you feel alright?

Give me that corpse please
The one that tore nightly
I really want it now
Fold the arms slowly
Don't want you to hold me
It fits just like a glove
Your closet is bulging
White marrow withholding
Does he make you feel alright?

Never heard a man speak like this man before
Never heard a man speak like this man before
All the days of my life ever since I've been born
Never heard a man speak like this man before
Watch me now

Say it, say it, say it loud
Say it, say it, say it loud
Hold your heavy burden
In a pocket full of drink that I have drunk
Spit the remnants in your direction
This is the closest to any kingdom that you will come

I'm starting to feel a miscarriage coming on
It's numbing a stump clearing in my throat
And I just can't lose grip of it
She fumigated my mental hygiene
I'm all out of pulse but I know you can resuscitate me

Never heard a man speak like this man before
Never heard a man speak like this man before
All the days of my life ever since I've been born
Never heard a man speak like this man before

Never heard a man speak like this man before
Never heard a man speak like this man before
All the days of my life ever since I've been born
Never heard a man speak like this man before
Watch me now

Nights under moonlight and days in the sun. We don’t need our heads cuz our bodies are young.

A Great Big Pile of Leaves - We don't need our heads (acoustic)

________________________________________________________

With wheels on the pavement,
We’re feeling so grand,
Lose a little skin, get up and do it again.

Head up in the clouds,
And our toes in the sand,
Lose a little skin, get up and do it again.

Hangin’ on the outside,
It’s so much more fun,
We don’t need our heads cuz our bodies are young.

Nights under moonlight,
And days in the sun,
We don’t need our heads cuz our bodies are young.

I used to hate sleep,
I’d think of all the things,
That I could be missing, let’s stay up until the morning.

We can go sledding if we want to,
We can do anything we want to,
We don’t want to miss a thing, let’s stay up until the morning.

We don’t need our heads,
When we’re jumping off buildings,
Lose a little skin, get up and do it again.

And anyway I just wanted to show you I'm yours now. Empty and cynical. Lost In gratitude.

Aereogramme - In gratitude

_____________________________________________________________

It is dangerous
To put this into words
But I'm alright
Close to fulfilment
I miss you
I miss you

And anyway
I just wanted to show you
I'm yours now
Empty and cynical
Lost
In gratitude
In gratitude

It is dangerous
To put into words
But I know in time
We'll get out of this mess
We'll get out of this mess

And anyway
I just wanted to show you
Some happiness

I wanted to show you the stars
I want to show you the stars
And we go

Just hit the ground running
Just hit the ground running, I know
Just hit the ground running
And don't look back

Just hit the ground running
Just hit the ground running
Just hit the ground running
And don't look back

Just hit the ground running
Just hit the ground running, I know
Just hit the ground running
And don't look back

I'm gonna live I'm alright, I'm gonna die it's alright, I'm okay

Good Old War - That's some dream

____________________________________________________________

There's a time in our lives
we start again on writing our part
as the story goes on it's the rule that we remember our lines

I know everyone would want me to say
that I'm not afraid to be alone

I'm gonna live I'm alright,
I'm gonna die it's alright, I'm okay
Lai dai dai
I'm gonna live I'm alright,
I'm gonna die it's alright, I'm okay
Lai dai dai

There's a place in my head
it must be called the super motel
I can stay the whole night
and think about the girl in her shell

I know everyone would want me to say
that I'm not afraid to be alone

I'm gonna live I'm alright,
I'm gonna die it's alright, I'm okay
Lai dai dai
I'm gonna live I'm alright,
I'm gonna die it's alright, I'm okay
Lai dai dai

I know everyone would want me to say
that I'm not afraid to be alone

I'm gonna live I'm alright,
I'm gonna die it's alright, I'm okay
Lai dai dai
I'm gonna live I'm alright,
I'm gonna die it's alright, I'm okay
Lai dai dai

I'm gonna live I'm alright,
I'm gonna die it's alright, I'm okay

That's some dream.

You and me were never meant to be part of the future. All we have is now.

The Flaming Lips - All we have is now

____________________________________________________

As logic stands you couldn't meet a man
Who's from the future
But logic broke as he appeared he spoke
About the future
"We're not going to make it" 
He explained how the end will come 
You and me were never meant to be 
Part of the future 
All we have is now 
All we've ever had was now
All we have is now
All we'll ever have is now

I noticed that he had a watch and hat
That looked familiar
He was me from a dimension torn free
Of the future
"We're not going to make it" 
He explained how the end will come 
You and me were never meant to be 
Part of the future 
All we have is now 
All we've ever had was now
All we have is now
All we'll ever have is now 

All we have is now 

Listening to Beatles, thinking of you.

Beatles - Happiness is a warm gun

_____________________________________________________________

She's not a girl who misses much
Do do do do do do- oh yeah!
She's well acquainted with the touch of the velvet hand
Like a lizard on a window pane

The man in the crowd with the multicoloured mirrors
On his hobnail boots
Lying with his eyes while his hands are busy
Working overtime
A soap impression of his wife which he ate
And donated to the National Trust

I need a fix 'cause I'm going down
Down to the bits that I left uptown
I need a fix cause I'm going down
Mother Superior jump the gun
Mother Superior jump the gun
Mother Superior jump the gun
Mother Superior jump the gun
Mother Superior jump the gun
Mother Superior jump the gun

Happiness is a warm gun
Happiness is a warm gun, momma
When I hold you in my arms
And I feel my finger on your trigger
I know nobody can do me no harm
Because happiness is a warm gun, momma
Happiness is a warm gun
-Yes it is.
Happiness is a warm, yes it is...
Gun!
BANG, BANG,
SHOOT, SHOOT,
Well don't ya know that happiness is a warm gun, momma?

Driftin on the world I think of you as I fall into landmines.

Petracovich - You are this perfect

____________________________________________________________

My baby boy
Driftin on the world I
Think of you as I
Fall into landmines

Baby boy
I think of your soft hair
I'm floating through morning
To touch on the fields

You are this perfect
The morning sun shines on the dew
Of the flowers

It's just a morning
It's just a sunrise
If it is my last one
I would have you close to me.

Ich könnte auch noch die Sterne fassen in mir, so groß scheint mir mein Herz.

Das ist mein Fenster. Eben
bin ich so sanft erwacht.
Ich dachte, ich würde schweben.
Bis wohin reicht mein Leben,
und wo beginnt die Nacht?

Ich könnte meinen, alles
wäre noch Ich ringsum;
durchsichtig wie eines Kristalles
Tiefe, verdunkelt, stumm.

Ich könnte auch noch die Sterne
fassen in mir, so groß
scheint mir mein Herz; so gerne
ließ es ihn wieder los

den ich vielleicht zu lieben,
vielleicht zu halten begann.
Fremd, wie niebeschrieben
sieht mich mein Schicksal an.

Was bin ich unter diese
Unendlichkeit gelegt,
duftend wie eine Wiese,
hin und her bewegt,

rufend zugleich und bange,
daß einer den Ruf vernimmt,
und zum Untergange
in einem Andern bestimmt. 

Rilke

I know what I know, and all I ever need is you

Portugal. the man - The Bottom

______________________________________________________________

How High. Soldiers pull boys through rain
ground to their toes ground to the dirt
(oh) my. They spilled down the steps
filed in rows like hair likes to pour
like skin loves to warm
but teeth don't pull like these chains don't
drag around
.... because it's safe at the bottom....
Wind down to the beds of the leaves
bedding of sand where fire don't burn (but
the tops of trees)
Out, out of the head streams a maze
of colors and shapes that dance from these walls
but trust don't pay like these guns don't fuck
around
.... we know it's safe at the bottom....
I know what I know, and all I ever need is you
Down, down in the sand lives alone
in shackles and bone meat blood from grown
gravel and stone
but teeth don't pull like these chains don't
drag around
.... because it's safe at the bottom....
Calm but never finds rest these bones
for what we don't know for all that we know
It's all that we've known
but trust don't pay like these guns don't fuck
around
.... we know it's safe at the bottom....
I know what I know, and all I ever need is you 

I will lay me down in a bunker underground.

Radiohead - I will

_______________________________________________________________

I will
Lay me down
In a bunker
Underground
I won’t let this happen to my children
Meet the real world coming out of your shell
With white elephants
Sitting ducks
I will
Rise up
Little babies eyes, eyes, eyes, eyes
Little babies eyes, eyes, eyes, eyes
Little babies eyes, eyes, eyes

Ask me about my mother
And I'll tell you that I love her
'Cause she feeds me all kinds of foods
Yeah, she feeds me all kinds of foods
Don't you love your baby
Tell me tell me tell me tell me true
And all the foods you ate
Enough to fill your plate

Big houses burn
Big houses burn down
Big houses burn
Big houses burn down
Don't burn down mine 

You can run on for a long time sooner or later God'll cut you down

Johnny Cash - God's gonna cut you down

___________________________________________________________

You can run on for a long time
Run on for a long time
Run on for a long time
Sooner or later God'll cut you down
Sooner or later God'll cut you down

Go tell that long tongue liar
Go and tell that midnight rider
Tell the rambler, the gambler, the back biter
Tell 'em that God's gonna cut 'em down
Tell 'em that God's gonna cut 'em down

Well my goodness gracious let me tell you the news
My head's been wet with the midnight dew
I've been down on bended knee talkin' to the man from Galilee
He spoke to me in the voice so sweet
I thought I heard the shuffle of the angel's feet
He called my name and my heart stood still
When he said, "John go do My will!"

Go tell that long tongue liar
Go and tell that midnight rider
Tell the rambler, the gambler, the back biter
Tell 'em that God's gonna cut 'em down
Tell 'em that God's gonna cut 'em down

You can run on for a long time
Run on for a long time
Run on for a long time
Sooner or later God'll cut you down
Sooner or later God'll cut you down

Well you may throw your rock and hide your hand
Workin' in the dark against your fellow man
But as sure as God made black and white
What's done in the dark will be brought to the light

You can run on for a long time
Run on for a long time
Run on for a long time
Sooner or later God'll cut you down
Sooner or later God'll cut you down

Go tell that long tongue liar
Go and tell that midnight rider
Tell the rambler, the gambler, the back biter
Tell 'em that God's gonna cut you down
Tell 'em that God's gonna cut you down
Tell 'em that God's gonna cut you down 

Mein Herz liegt schwer

so soll's nicht sein

sieht es dich an

bricht es in zwei

Und immer und immer wieder

sitz' ich in der Dunkelheit

und singe meine Lieder

wahrscheinlich von heute

bis in alle Ewigkeit.

Impossible day, I don’t complain i’m over it i guess. Scattered and grey so i hold it back and keep it sugarless.

Shelling out what you need
there’s no time for self-esteem
take your carbon pill tonight
have a seat for the fight
way too late to come off smart
leave your mask inside its box
smile cold anatomy
teeth like stars you start to freeze

you can’t wake up
never wake up
can’t wake up
seems to me like there’s really no reason

impossible day
i don’t complain
i’m over it i guess
scattered and grey so
i hold it back
and keep it sugarless

you just caved in yeah
it came from nowhere
you just caved in
it came from nowhere

Go sing, too loud. Make your voice break- Sing it out. Go scream, do shout. Make an earthquake...

When i said ' I can see me in your eyes', you said 'I can see you in my bed', that's not just friendship that's romance too, you like music we can dance to.

Sit me down,
Shut me up,

and i'll get along with you

There is a time when we all fail,
some people take it pretty well,
some take it all out on themselves,
some they just take it out on friends,
oh everybody plays the game,
and if you don't you're called insane

Don't don't don't don't it's not safe no more,
i've got to see you one more time,

Sit me down,

Everybody was well dressed,

Look at what the light did now.

Little Wings and Feist - Look at what the light did now

Hear it like a pounce upon a peak, oh
Look at what the light did now
Bear it like a bounce upon the beak, oh
Look at what the light did now
Land and water and bird or beast, oh
Look at what the light did now
Shiny little band or golden fleece, oh
Look at what the light did now

In my will I went 'till it's wasted
Look at what the light did now
Taste the taste I taste 'till it's tasted
Look at what the light did now
Bought it like a boast that burly beaming
Look at what the light did now
Got it like a ghost that girly gleaming
Look at what the light did now

Like a dead tree that's dry and leaving
Look at what the light did now
Play it on me with grief and grieving
Look at what the light did now
I would finally fall to pieces
Look at what the light did now
We'll meet soon as nephew's nieces
Look at what the light did now

I’ll become like the desert wind and I’ll drink all the gin. Shriveled up under desert lights eaten up in the night

Circa Survive - Through the desert alone

____________________________________________________

Sadly, I walk around this place on the shells of eggs
My shoulders are cold
I put it off for so long, I put it off
and know I’ve got to live with what I made
forever

What was stolen from us
now is forever lost
just because we’ll never pay the ransom
What was taken from me
I will never regain just because
We’ll never pay the ransom

I’ll become like the desert wind
and I’ll drink all the gin
Shriveled up under desert lights
eaten up in the night
I can’t keep this up much longer without
needing more from you
I need more

Wasted with the rhythm
angry at the melody
How did you stay so sweet?
Cause you were my ally once
You were my confidante
I need somebody close
to be close to
forever

What was stolen from us
now is forever lost
just because we’ll never pay the ransom
What was taken from me
I will never regain
just because we’ll never pay the ransom
just because we’ll never pay the ransom

The sound of animals fighting - The heretic

_________________________________________________________________

Inevitably
It's starting to bleed
And couldn't be stopped, that's justice
Incredible luck, to lift and be struck
What curious things..

A moment to think, before we will sing
The beauties alined, so sweetly
And don't be afraid, don't be afraid
Don't be afraid...

Does this look like that?
(My bumpkin boy)
How cruel you get
I've started again
(My bumpkin boy)
To miss your hands
What carnage you've left
(My bumpkin boy)
And you were dead
You've mangled your flesh
(My bumpkin boy)
To see us break

Our souls are unrest
What kind of pride is this?
Dry your, dry your eyes
They'll salt his wounds
If burning the flesh means finding the one

Does this look like that?
(My bumpkin boy)
How cruel you get
I've started again
(My bumpkin boy)
To miss your hands
What carnage you've left
(My bumpkin boy)
And you were dead
You've mangled your flesh
(My bumpkin boy)
To see us break

(Flesh is heretic
My body is a witch
I am burning it)

My bumpkin boy
How cruel you get
I've started again
My bumpkin boy
To miss your hand...

Everybody should have and love this album.

Brand New - Sink

___________________________________________________________

I don't want to let you go
But it hurts my hands to hold the rope
I won't be such an easy mark
You're no better then they say

And all the candles on the cake
All set fire to the gate
Turn the cannons towards the boat
Men were drowning in the moat
It was the end of all rowers oars

If you call then I'm coming to get you
If you call then I'm coming, now
If you call then I'm coming to get you
You want to sink, so I'm gonna let you

All I want's some earth and seed
But only grow the things I need
But first I must find my way back
And you go lay down on the track

At first I had an even keel
But now I'm not sure what is real.
It's taken me this long to learn
That every dead is ate by worms
And once they're gone they don't return

If you call then I'm coming to get you
If you call then I'm coming, now
If you call then I'm coming to get you
You want to sink, so I'm gonna let you

I'm coming to get you
If you call then I'm coming to get you
If you call then I'm coming to get you
You want to sink, so I'm gonna let you
Then the fire snuck into your bedroom
Now I'm falling asleep to forget you

How darkly the dark hand met his end
He was withered and boney, exposed for a phoney
But we heed the last words that he penned
Haste to disgrace the traitor. Do not wait til later
I don't think that you've got to pretend
I see God in birds and Satan in long words
But I know what you need in a friend
So now when I leave you, I hope I won't see you

How darkly the dark hand met his end
He was withered and boney, exposed for a phoney
But we heed the last words that he penned
Haste to disgrace the traitor. Do not wait til later

If you call then I'm coming to get you
If you call then I'm coming, now
If you call then I'm coming to get you
You want to sink, so I'm gonna let you
Well, I'm coming to get you
If you call then I'm coming, now
If you call then I'm coming to get you
You want to sink, so I'm gonna let you
Then the fire snuck into your bedroom
Now I'm falling asleep to forget you

See me through, tore down my walls, bring out my lion and rip out my eyes

Immanu El - Panda

___________________________________________________

I took a picture
A window of a dream
A whisper of a fear
We dance with wrong chords to wrong songs

See me through
Tore down my walls
Bring out my lion
And rip out my eyes

I will stand tall when the winter gets to us
If you stay with me

Rip it out and leave it all behind
Rip it out, with you it makes the same
Get out

Love was made like a book or a page just ripped out but we never read anyway.

Colour Revolt - Mattresses underwater

_______________________________________________________________

There are places
Some of us can't face yet 
And even though we see it 
We just swear God's sleeping 
So we say, 

"Ash to ash, dust to dust, 
We're all gonna die so we have to 
trust in something"
But it's probably nothing
There's gotta be something

Now we mean it in our homes where we're sleeping
We call it mattresses underwater but the gutters are seeping
So we say, 

"Ask and ask and we'll return 
The same favors till its our own turn"
We got ash in our pockets and dust in the urn,
Another forty years for you
And yours to learn

Love was made like a ship at bay, never to see waves
We'll probably all crash anyway

When we see it we don't believe it 
We've got our faces made for smiling, but we are weeping 
We got ash in our pockets and dust in the urn 
Another forty years for you and yours to learn 
You say, "all you ever talk about is dying and it's getting so old"

And we say, "love was made 
Like a book or a page just ripped out but we never read anyway" 
And you say "love was made like a ship at bay never to see waves"
We should probably get used to it, but we don't

Now I see it...

She's got her hands in her pockets and she's walking around 
She's got a face made for smiling but she's making a frown 
She says, "all you ever talk about is letting us down 
If you ever see me dying, just put me in the ground" 

Instrumental masterpiece.

From my womb to my tomb I guess I'll always be a child

Devendra Banhart - I feel just like a child

________________________________________________________________

I feel just like a child
Well I feel just like a child
I feel just like a child
I feel just like a child
From my womb to my tomb
I guess I'll always be a child
Some people try and treat me like a man
Yeah some people try and treat me like a man
I just they just don't understand
Well some people try and treat me like a man
They think I know shit
But that's just it
I'm a child
Yeah I need you to tell me what to wear
I need you to help and comb my hair
Yeah I need you to come and tie my shoes
Yeah I need you to come and keep me amused
From my cave to my grave
I guess I'll always be a child
I need you to help me reach the door
And I need you to walk me to the store
And I need you to please explain the war
And I need you to heal me when I'm sore
You can tell by my smile
That I'm a child
And I need you to sit me on your lap
And I need you to make me take my nap
Could you first pull out a book and
Read me some of that
Cause I need you to make me take my nap
And I need you to recognize my friends
Cause they're there even though
You don't see them
They got their own chair, plate, and a seat
You know I won't touch my food
Unless they eat
From the roof to the floor
I crawl around some more
I'm a child
And I need you to help me blow my nose
And I need you to help me count my toes
And I need you to help me put on my clothes
And I need you to hide it when it shows
From be my daddy's sperm
To being packed in an urn
I'm a child
And when I steal you gotta
Slap me til I cry
Don't you stop til the tears run dry
See I was born thinking under the sky
I didn't belong to a couple of old wise guys
From sucking on my mama's breast
To when they lay my soul to rest
I'm a child
Well I guess I'm always be
A little child
