Get Me Through December - Alison Krauss

How pale is the sky that brings forth the rain
As the changing of seasons prepares me again
For the long bitter nights and the wild winter's day
My heart has grown cold, my love stored away;
My heart has grown cold, my love stored away.

I've been to the mountain left my tracks in the snow
Where souls have been lost and the walking wounded go
I've taken the pain no girl should endure
Faith can move mountains of that I am sure
But faith can move mountains of that I am sure

Just get me through December
A promise I'll remember
Get me through December
So I can start again

No divine purpose brings freedom from sin
And peace is a gift that must come from within
I've looked for the love that will bring me to rest
Feeding this hunger beating strong in my chest
Feeding this hunger beating strong in my chest

Get me through December
A promise I'll remember
Get me through December
So I can start again
 
Is the thread still valid since it's 08 now? %)

I love this song. It has such a great "out of control" vibe.

Collide - "Crushed"

(In your revelation... In the symphony, there you stood in your own delirium.)

And all your satellites are fragments here.
I feel a little crushed, and out of control.
And all your gravity, it's meant to bring you down,
Makes me feel so crushed, and out of control.

All your velocity, how can it really be part of the symmetry?

If every moment connects the next, and every moment affects you...
Not what it's meant to be, part of the scenery.

And all your satellites are fragmented.
I feel a little crushed, and out of control.
And all your gravity, it's meant to bring you down.
Makes me feel so crushed, and out of control.

Part of your destiny, hold on here.
Not what its meant to be.
Give me something to believe in...
Part of the scenery, wishing your alchemy would turn dust to gold.

But you're not easily crushed... Not easily crushed...
 
See You by the Foo Fighters

these notes are marked "return to sender"
I'll save this letter for myself
I wish you only knew
how good it is to see you
 
Yeah, we need an '08. <3

Voice of the Beehive - I Say Nothing

I heard this girl one day.
She had these long, tight legs.
She said, "I get it every night,
and he calls me every day.

He'll leave you black and blue.
He'll rip you right in two,
then wake up in the morning,
and say "Who the hell are you?"

And then she turns to me and says "We know you.
Tell us some secrets, honey. We won't say a word."

But I say nothing, I talk to no-one.
I know what I believe. Don't need to wear it on my sleeve.
I talk to no-one, I will say nothing.
If we come and go alone, why do they need to know?

The boy who's always mad.
He's just alone and sad.
He holds my hand so tightly.
He says "Go away, I'm bad.

I'll leave you black and blue
I'll rip you right in two;

But it is just because
I do not know how to be true.

That's why I sometimes stand alone at parties.
That's why I drink, so I'll be who they think I am.

But don't say nothing. Don't talk to no-one.
I'm not what they believe, and if they find out they will leave.
Don't talk to no-one, Just don't say nothing.
If we come and go alone, why do they need to know?

All those endless days of all those sci-fi slaves.
The noise is just a drag until you say close your eyes,
and listen...
They're singing just for you
It's swinging just for you
It's screaming just for you.

I say nothing.
I'll talk to no-one.

There is a place somewhere
Some times you'll find me there
And If I am alone
I will be sitting on the stairs.

I'll be as good as new.
One of the lucky few,
who's laughing at the joke, and
as I leave I laugh for you.

But I say nothing, I talk to no-one.
I know what I believe. Don't need to wear it on my sleeve.
I talk to no-one, I will say nothing.
If we come and go alone, then what's the point of carrying these arcades?

I'll say nothing.
I'll talk to no-one.
I will say nothing.
I'll talk to no-one, but you.
 
ISIS - Dulcinea

He is not mad
His thought is clearer than
The saner man

For in her he saw
Beauty overflowing
Through the tattered clothes

She was his queen
She is a queen

In dreams he
Wanders the dark
In search of her

absolutely beautiful song from an awesome band. im glad i took the time to appreciate isis more and more.
 
ISIS - holy tears

He was patient
Slow descent, chills the bones
His wait maybe long
Still he carries on
Always reaching for her
Always breathing for her
Lifting his hand to the sky
Slow change might bring
Holy tears
Upon his battered skull

Holy tears
Holy tears

He won't take the priviledge
To know the crown

seems to be a continuation for the search of dulcinea
 
Clint Eastwood -The Gorillaz.

I'm aint' happy, I'm feel'n glad,
I got sunshine in a bag,
I'm useless but not for long,
The future is coming on, an on, an on.

Finally someone let me outta' my cage.

So you can survive when law is lawless,
Feelings, sensations that you thought was dead,
No squeeling cause remember -that it's all in your head.

Everclear -Sparkle and Fade.

Ten long years in a straight line,
They fall like water, yes I guess I fusked up again.
I woke up in the street crawling with my strawberry burns.

Grove Armada -I see You Baby(Fatboy Slim RMX)

My name is Grandma Funk y'all
Funkey if you nasty, and you got's to be nasty.
I see you baby shak'n that ass, shak'n that ass, shak'n that ass.
Close your eyes and get sexy with it.

That's a pretty fucked-up combination.
 
Tom Petty - I Won't Back Down

Well I won't back down
No I won't back down
You can stand me up at the gates of hell
But I won't back down

No I'll stand my ground, won't be turned around
And I'll keep this world from draggin me down
gonna stand my ground
... and I won't back down

(I won't back down...)
Hey baby, there ain't no easy way out
(and I won't back down...)
hey I will stand my ground
and I won't back down

Well I know what's right, I got just one life
in a world that keeps on pushin me around
but I'll stand my ground
...and I won't back down

(I won't back down...)
Hey baby, there ain't no easy way out
(and I won't back down...)
hey I will stand my ground
(I won't back down)
and I won't back down...

(I won't back down...)
Hey baby, there ain't no easy way out
(I won't back down)
hey I won't back down
(and I won't back down)
hey baby, there ain't no easy way out
(and I won't back down)
hey I will stand my ground
(and I won't back down)
and I won't back down
(I won't back down)
No I won't back down.
 
Justin Timberlake - My Love
(Just a few short lines)

Hold up, what you mean, you can't go why?
Me and your boyfriend, we ain't no tie
You say you wanna kick it, when I ain't so high
Baby, it's obvious that I ain't your guy

Ain't gonna lie, I feel your space
But forget your face, I swear I will

I'll never understand why my wife married such a pothead when she can't seem to stand me being high.
 
Marcy Playground One More Suicide

Christopher O'Malley went out on a bridge
Down in Chehalis
And clutching his bible and a letter from her
Fell into the river
Pity no one was there
No angels in the air
And the morning paper ran
One more suicide

His mama stayed by the river side
Down in Chehalis
And clutching her bible and a letter from him
Fell into crying
Pity no was there
No angles in the air
And the morning paper ran
One more suicide

Pity no one was there
No angels in the air
And the morning paper ran
One more suicide
One more suicide
One more suicide
 
Rough Hands by Alexisonfire

Was I left behind?
Someone tell me, tell me I survived
And don't look so surprised
That I'm home, but just for tonight
With rough hands and sore eyes
So don't speak, I am tired
Let's just live through this lie

She says I swear too much
She says a lot of things
Well I'd swear every other word if I could
For her, I'll make an attempt

Sometimes love isn't about
How much someone suits you
But how much you're willing to change
To suit them

All my bones are dust
(two people too damaged too much too late)
And my heart sealed with rust
(two people too damaged too much too late)
These hands will always be rough
(two people too damaged too much too late)
I know this won't count for much
(two people too damaged too much too late)

One day my hands were too soft
One day she said, "I'm tired"
One day her clothes were on my floor
One day, empty bottles

I'm not saying she's my last
I'm just saying that she could have been
It doesn't matter how rough these hands get
It doesn't matter 'cause I'm not her man

Rough hands, rough days
Rough hands, rough nights
Rough hands, rough season
Rough hands, rough fights...

All my bones are dust (Rough hands, rough days)
(two people too damaged too much too late)
And my heart sealed with rust (Rough hands, rough season)
(two people too damaged too much too late)
These hands will always be rough (Rough hands, rough days)
(two people too damaged too much too late)
I know this won't count for much (Rough hands, rough season)
(two people too damaged too much too late)

tool is my favorite band.

this is from parabol//parabola

...In this holy reality, in this holy experience. Choosing to be
here in

This body. This body holding me. Be my reminder here that I am
not alone in
This body, this body holding me, feeling eternal
All this pain is an illusion.

Twirling round with this familiar parable.
Spinning, weaving round each new experience.
Recognize this as a holy gift and celebrate this chance to be
alive and breathing.

This body holding me reminds me of my own mortality.
Embrace this moment. Remember. we are eternal.
all this pain is an illusion.

Does anyone else find this sad and eerie? :(

ISIS really is an excellent bad -- Dulcinea's a great song. In the Absence of Truth is alive with implications - interlacing themes from Don Quixote with the story of Hassan I Sabbah - to me I sense a dynamic of delusion, one being empowered, even saved by their adopted perception and the other looking to alter perception in means to control. Really, like the title of the album, it lends one an aural experience of when ground reality disappears and we only have a sea of delusions -- all constantly weaving in and out of each other -- or guide us.

Anyway, don't know why I felt like dissecting ISIS..hm.. Yeah anyway their great. I saw them Cambridge as one of their ten-year-anniversary shows. Oxbow opened though, and there's a strong personality in that music that might have stolen the show a bit -- they were pretty wonderful too.

Anyway, keep listening. Great stuff.
 
^ Isis is phenominal. I saw them open for Tool. Best concert ever. Isis is incredible live. Justin got on stage and played bass with them too, it was pretty bad ass.
 
Sebadoh- No Different For Us

There is no soul; it's an everlasting tease
In scared control; patterned easy, pleasing
Why try to understand? It's never meant to be understood
Logic is the bottomless pit
A no-cure find; questions behind
Take what you can
Cut out the heart
Who could ever blame you, man?
Nothing's fair, we're all doomed from the start
No different for us
No different for us
We're just like the others, no different for us
Can't stop the change; the change can't stop
Though we leave our souls for a hopeful trust
It's different for us
It's different for us
We will survive the change
It's different for us
It's not cool to fall in love
Scared and desperate in this life
Safer, cool to judge outside
Oh, to be complaining cool
Never cool, though too excitable
All that we will ever be
They don't have to feel the pain we feel
Pass their judgment, be sure, decide what's real
I don't have to cry to make this real
 
A groan of tedium escapes me
Startling the fearful
Is this a test?
It has to be
Otherwise I can't go on

Draining patience
Drain vitality
This paranoid, paralyzed vampire act's a little old

But I'm still right here
Giving blood, keeping faith
And I'm still right here

But I'm still right here
Giving blood, keeping faith
And I'm still right here

Wait it out
I'm gonna wait it out
Gonna wait it out (be patient)

If there were no rewards to reap
No loving embrace to see me through
This tedious path I've chosen here
I certainly would've walked away
By now

Gonna wait it out

And if there were no desire to heal
The damaged and broken met along
This tedious path I've chosen here
I certainly would've walked away
By now

And I still may
(sigh)
I still may

"Be patient,"
"Be patient,"
"Be patient."

I must keep reminding myself of this


Gonna wait it out
Gonna wait it out
Wait it out
Gonna wait it out

Tool- The Patient
 
The Gathering - Rollercoaster

Outrun the fight
I use to hide
in quiet places

I'll rephrase my cry
For I would keep on wondering
the rest of my life

You're all moving too fast
My biggest fear is
that we'll never ever last

I know, it's not that easy
Let's hit the brakes

Don't take no time
Unless there's a crime
to be committed

I guess we lost our faith
While we stand and wait
until nothing ever happens

I know, it's not that easy
Let's hit the brakes

I know, it's not that easy
Let's hit the brakes

I know, it's not that easy
Let's hit the brakes
 
In the Aeroplane Over the Sea- Neutral Milk Hotel

What a beautiful face
I have found in this place
That is circling all round the sun
What a beautiful dream
That could flash on the screen
In a blink of an eye and be gone from me
Soft and sweet
Let me hold it close and keep it here with me

And one day we will die
And our ashes will fly from the aeroplane over the sea
But for now we are young
Let us lay in the sun
And count every beautiful thing we can see
Love to be
In the arms of all I'm keeping here with me

What a curious life we have found here tonight
There is music that sounds from the street
There are lights in the clouds
Anne's ghost all around
Hear her voice as it's rolling and ringing through me
Soft and sweet
How the notes all bend and reach above the trees

Now how I remember you
How I would push my fingers through
Your mouth to make those muscles move
That made your voice so smooth and sweet
And now we keep where we don't know
All secrets sleep in winter clothes
With one you loved so long ago
Now he don't even know his name

What a beautiful face
I have found in this place
That is circling all round the sun
And when we meet on a cloud
I'll be laughing out loud
I'll be laughing with everyone I see
Can't believe how strange it is to be anything at all
 
Man Man - "Doo Right"

I wanna hold you
'til the mountains turn into sand
Oh my God!
What happened to all those days
Before we were bruised
Before we were cut loose
To drown in your wake

I can't breathe underwater
Like I used to
'fore I met you, oh!

I, just can't remember
January, straight through December
My collective memories are in shambles
So are my scruples
I'm outside your window
Throwin' bricks at the moon

I can't breathe underwater
Like I used to
'fore i met you, oh!


thank God this song is only a minute and a half long, otherwise I wouldn't listen to it so much. :D
