Posted 18 Sep 2009 "Everything's Just Wonderful" by Lily Allen Do you think, everything, everyone, is going mental, It seems to me that it's spiraling outta control and it's inevitable, Now don't you think, This time is yours, this time is mine, It's temperamental, It seems to me, we're on all fours, Crawling on our knees, Someone help us please Oh Jesus Christ almighty, Do I feel alright? No not slightly, I wanna get a flat I know I can't afford it, It's just the bureaucrats who won't give me a mortgage, Well it's very funny cos I got your puppying money, And I'm never gonna get it just because of my bad credit Oh well I guess I mustn't grumble, I suppose that's just the way the cookie crumbles. Oh yes, I'm fine, Everything's just wonderful, I'm having the time of my life. Don't you want something else, Something new, than what we've got here, And don't you feel it's all the same, Some sick game and it's not insincere, I wish I could change the ways of the world, Make it a nice place Until that day, I guess we stay, Doing what we do Screwing who we screw Why can't I sleep at night, Don't say it's gonna be alright, I wanna be able to eat spaghetti bolognaise, and not feel bad about it for days and days and days. In the magazines they talk about weight loss, If I buy those jeans I can look like Kate Moss, Oh no it's not the life I chose, But I guess that's the way that things go, Oh yes, I'm fine, Everything's just wonderful, I'm having the time of my life. Oh yes, I'm fine, Everything's just wonderful, I'm having the time of my life. Ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba Oh Jesus Christ almighty, Do I feel alright? No not slightly, I wanna get a flat I know I can't afford it, It's just the bureaucrats who won't give me a mortgage, Well it's very funny cos I got your puppying money, And I'm never gonna get it just because of my bad credit Oh well I guess I mustn't grumble, I suppose that's just the way the cookie crumbles. Oh yes, I'm fine, Everything's just wonderful, I'm having the time of my life. Oh yes, I'm fine, Everything's just wonderful, I'm having the time of my life.

Posted 21 Sep 2009 "Escape" by Muse You would say anything And you would try anything To escape your meaningless And your insignificance You're uncontrollable And we are unlovable And I don't want you to think that I care I never would, I never could again Why can't you just love her? Why be such a monster? You bully from a distance Your brain needs some assistance But I'll still take all the blame 'Cause you and me are both one and the same And its driving me mad And its driving me mad I'll take back all the things that I said I didn't realize I was talking to the living dead And I dont want you to think that I care I never would, I never could again You would say anything And you would try anything To escape your meaningless And your insignificance Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 3 Oct 2009 Warm yourself by the fire, son, And the morning will come soon. I’ll tell you stories of a better time, In a place that we once knew. Before we packed our bags And left all this behind us in the dust, We had a place that we could call home, And a life no one could touch. Don’t hold me up now, I can stand my own ground, I don’t need your help now, You will let me down, down, down! Don’t hold me up now, I can stand my own ground, I don’t need your help now, You will let me down, down, down! Down! We are the angry and the desperate, The hungry, and the cold, We are the ones who kept quiet, And always did what we were told. But we’ve been sweating while you slept so calm, In the safety of your home. We’ve been pulling out the nails that hold up Everything you’ve known. Don’t hold me up now, I can stand my own ground, I don’t need your help now, You will let me down, down, down! Don’t hold me up now, I can stand my own ground, I don’t need your help now, You will let me down, down, down! So open your eyes child, Let’s be on our way. Broken windows and ashes Are guiding the way. Keep quiet no longer, We’ll sing through the day, Of the lives that we’ve lost, And the lives we’ve reclaimed. Go! Don’t hold me up now, I can stand my own ground, I don’t need your help now, You will let me down, down, down! Don’t hold me up now, I can stand my own ground, I don’t need your help now, You will let me down, down, down! Don’t hold me up… (I don’t need your help, I’ll stand my ground) Don’t hold me up… (I don’t need your help) No! No! No! Don’t hold me up! (I don’t need your help, I’ll stand my ground) Don’t hold me up! (I don’t need your help) Don’t let me down, down, down, down, down!

Posted 7 Oct 2009 Andrew Bird - Cataracts When our mouths are filled with uninvited tongues of others And the strays are pining for their unrequited mothers Milk that sours is promptly spat Light will fill our eyes like cats And they shall enter from the back With spears and scepters and squirming sacks Scribs and tangles between their ears Faceless scrumbled charcoal smears Through the coppice and the chaparral The thickets thick with mold The bracken and the brier Catchweed into the fold When our mouths are filled with uninvited tongues of others And the strays are pining for their unrequited mothers Milk that sours is promptly spat Light will fill our eyes like cats Light will fill our eyes like cats Cataracts I just feel the need to explain a bit, simply so that the meaning doesn't fly over the heads of anybody who may be reading it. It would be a shame to lose such a meaningful song to misunderstanding. It's about having your opinions suppressed, having your voice replaced by that of someone else (Mouths filled with uninvited tongues), and how that suppression can come out of nowhere (and they shall enter from the back...charcoal smears), and the people who suppress may not even seem to be important or particularly important (Faceless scrumbled charcoal smears). I had to explain because Andrew Bird is an exceptional lyricist, and his songs can hit close to home a lot of the time. It's good when you want something mellow that is realistic and makes a statement. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted 19 Oct 2009 MuteMath - Pins and Needles Paper thin conviction, Turning another page, Plotting how to build myself to be Everything that I am not at all. Sometimes I get tired of pins and needles, Facades are a fire on the skin. And I'm growing fond of broken people, As I see that I am one of them. I'm one of them. [x2] Oh, why must I work so hard, Just so I can feel like the noble ones? Obligations to my heart are gone, Superficial lines explain it all. Sometimes I get tired of pins and needles, Facades are a fire on the skin. Oh, I'm growing fond of broken people, As I see that I am one of them. Sometimes I get tired of pins and needles, Facades are a fire on the skin. Oh, and I'm growing fond of broken people, As I see that I am one of them. I'm one of them.

Posted 20 Oct 2009 "Master of Diagrams" By: TOTALLY RADD!! Plot it out, with pens in spiral notebooks. Demon squads and foes with grappling hooks. Write it down; only two dimensional. Make the killer death rate intentional. Master of diagrams you all must obey. Got to be good enough to make it one day. Develop wicked maps, trap doors- so cliche. Light-gun blasts aliens and tanks all away. Sometimes when the talk gets too lackluster- LCD handheld: so I won't suffer. Anne thinks my talent is all but precious. When I make it big-league, she'll be jealous. High-scores flicker, since dinner, without care or worry. Cereal bits, underneath napkin sketch: red crayon- so blurry. It's getting late, half-awake, ambition grown duller. Soon fast asleep, tucked safe in bed, dreaming in 16 colors. Master of diagrams you all must obey. Got to be good enough to make it one day. Develop wicked maps, trap doors- so cliche. Light-gun blasts aliens and tanks all away. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 20 Oct 2009 Nowhere to go By Melissa etheridge I know a place Down past an old shack On a road that goes to nowhere Aint nobody coming back We can go there tonight We can talk until dawn Or maybe something else Ill leave the radio on Theres no one to hear You might as well scream They never woke up From the american dream And they dont understand What they dont see And they look through you And they look past me Oh, you and I dancing slow And we got nowhere to go Past the wal-mart and the prison Down by the old v.a. Just my jeans and my t-shirt And my blue chevrolet Its saturday night Feels like everythings wrong Ive got some strawberry wine I wanna get you alone Down by the muddy water Of the mighty mo In an old abandoned box car Will I ever know Dance with me forever This moment is divine Im so close to heaven This hell is not mine This hell is not mine...

Posted 26 Oct 2009 "Tigerlily" By: La Roux Tonight out on the streets I'm gonna follow you Tell you all about a scene That you would kill for You're gonna love what's Burning right in front of you But you won't see it By the light of the sun Come out Tigerlily You're caressing me I'll take you up I'll turn you on I'll take your apathy I wouldn't lie to you Blossom Won't you let it go I'm gonna give you all you want And don't you know That you I know you better than this I could be here when you call I'll make you top of the list And in the crush of the dark I'll be your light in the mist I can see you burning with desire For a kiss Psychobabble all upon your lips They can sell it all they want But you cannot agree I don't like the taste Of their morality You'll find your bread and your butter Where you fake it And put your face in the gutter Of a snake pit But our communication Is telepathy What you give is what you get Out of us naturally And we can wait til the shadow grows long And turn the page of a story That has long since found a home I know you better than this I could be here when you call I'll make you top of the list And in the crush of the dark I'll be your light in the mist I can see you burning with desire For a kiss Psychobabble all upon your lips Have you ever felt Like you're being followed? Or watched the ones that held your stare? Turned around to see who's behind you To find there's no one there? Lurking in the dark There's someone who breathes you night and day There's a friend who wants so much more And if they can't have you They'll never let you walk away And in the crush of the dark I'll be your light in the mist I can see you burning with desire For a kiss And in the crush of the dark I'll be your light in the mist I can see you burning with desire For a kiss Psychobabble all upon your lips Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
