Sorry About That

Alkaline Trio - Sorry About That

It hasn't been that long
Since we drank to the sunset, until it was gone
And down with it went our pain and fear
As we slowly broke contact
more and more with every beer
And we passed out in each other's arms
Both admitting we'd never felt better
Never felt so warm
But awoke in each other's eyes
Without wearing a stitch of clothing
We were both deeply in disguise
And maybe I just set aside
The fact that you were broken hearted
In my own special selfish way
And if I hadn't set aside
The fact that you were broken hearted
Hell knows where your heart would be today
Maybe with me

It seems like it's been so long
Since we kissed through the darkness
Until it was dawn
Up with it came our pain and fear
That we'd already lost each other
We both knew that the end was near
Maybe I just set aside
The fact that you were broken hearted
In my own special selfish way
And if I hadn't set aside
The fact that you were broken hearted
Hell knows where your heart would be today
Maybe with me Maybe with me
Maybe with me Maybe with me
Maybe with me Maybe with me
 
this is the other song that's on my mind tonight...

my immortal - evanescence

my immortal
i'm so tired of being here
suppressed by all of my childish fears
and if you have to leave
i wish that you would just leave
because your presence still lingers here
and it won't leave me alone

these wounds won't seem to heal
this pain is just too real
there's just too much that time cannot erase

when you cried i'd wipe away all of your tears
when you'd scream i'd fight away all of your fears
and i've held your hand through all of these years
but you still have all of me

you used to captivate me
by your resonating light
but now i'm bound by the life you left behind
your face it haunts my once pleasant dreams
your voice it chased away all the sanity in me

these wounds won't seem to heal
this pain is just too real
there's just too much that time cannot erase

when you cried i'd wipe away all of your tears
when you'd scream i'd fight away all of your fears
and i've held your hand through all of these years
but you still have all of me

i've tried so hard to tell myself that you're gone
and though you're still with me
i've been alone all along
 
Homesick For Space-tonight I awake

we'll travel endless roads of dust,
to find these lives are made to rust,
drive by cemeteries hold your breath,
counting back from ten i breathe again.
tell me beautiful lies, tell me beautiful lies.
highway horizons will take me away,
to fill this void somehow someway,
drive by cemeteries hold your breath,
counting back from ten i breathe again.
one day, i will awake, one day i won't have to wait,
one day i will awake, one day i will escape.
lay with me tonight we'll watch the stars burn out, here tonight.
 
Lifeline- Brook Fraser

I have this sinking feeling
Something's weighing me down
I am completely saturated
The waves are crashing closer
My feet already drowned
Doing the thing I said I hated

They've been swimming in the wrong water
Now they're pulling me down
But I am clinging to you, never letting go
'Cos I know that you'll lift me out

[Chorus]
Have your way here
Keep me afloat 'cos I know I'll sink without you
Take this ocean of pain that is mine
Throw me a lifeline

Wake up feeling convicted
I know something's not right
Re-acquaint my knees with the carpet
I have to get this out
'Cos it's obstructing you and I
Dry up the seas that keep us parted

'Cos they've been swimming in the wrong waters
And now they're pulling me down
But I am clinging to you, never letting go
'Cos I know that you are gonna pull me out

[Chorus]
Have your way here
Keep me afloat 'cos I know I'll sink without you
Take this ocean of pain that is mine
Throw me a lifeline

They've been swimming in the wrong waters
And now they're pulling me down
But I am clinging to you, never letting go
'Cos I know, 'cos I know
 
"In a Cornfield" - Janine Stoll

Stumbling on the brink of too many beers
Brain full of hash but not enough to numb my fear
And I'm waiting on the edge of a cornfield with the rest of the kids

My courage is so tiny, so much smaller than my heart
It's darker than dark out, I don't know if this is smart
But hold your breath as we count down from ten
nineeightsevensixfivefour... three... two... one

And then with cautious abandon we all run in

I don't know whose hand I'm holding
I have no clue where I'm going
All I know is that there is thunder in that sky
And my lips are dry

Kiss me deep until there are no kisses left
Let the sky open up and threaten death
I don't even know your name
But take me with you just the same
I will go with you anywhere

Wind rushing through mocks the sound of the sea
Eight feet above our heads corn stalks swaying in the breeze
And you are gorgeous in this light even if it's in the night
I am smitten

Waiting in this pocket where there is no one around
Suddenly you’re holding me as the rain hurdles down
Laughing voices in the distance start to taper off

I am ensnared by a kiss to end all kisses
I am mercilessly caught

I don't know whose hand I'm holding
I have no clue where I'm going
All I know is that there is thunder in that sky
And my lips are so dry

Kiss me deep until there are no kisses left
Let the sky open up and threaten death
I don't even know your name
But take me with you just the same
I will go with you anywhere

Burn this memory in my brain
'Cause I'll never see you again
In this cornfield in this rain

So kiss me deep until there are no kisses left
Let the sky open up and threaten death
I don't even know your name
But take me with you just the same
I will go with you anywhere
Yes I will go with you anywhere
So take me with you anywhere
 
Not an artist I would normally listen to, but this song goes beyond the nice lyrics or the pretty tune. It one of those special songs. It's funny how it came to my attention at exactly the right time.

So Beautiful- Darren Hayes

Whether I'm right or wrong
There's no phrase that hits
Like an ocean needs the sand
Or a dirty old shoe that fits
And if all the world was perfect
I would only ever want to see your scars
You know they can have their universe
We'll be in the dirt designing stars

And darlin' you know
You make me feel so beautiful
Nowhere else in the world I wanna be
You make me feel so beautiful

Whether I'm up or down
There's no crowd to please
I'm like a faith without a clause
to believe in it
And if all the world was smiling
I would only ever want to see your frown
You know they can sail away in sunsets
We'll be right here stranded on the ground
Just happy to be found

You make me feel so beautiful
Nowhere else in the world I wanna be
You make me feel so beautiful

I have lost my illusions
I have drowned in your words
I have left my confusion to a cynical world
I am throwing myself at things I don't understand
Discover enlightenment holding your hand

You are...
So beautiful

Yeah darlin' you know
That you make me feel so beautiful!
Nowhere else in the world I wanna be
Yeah you make me feel so beautiful!

Yeah darlin' you know
That you make me feel so beautiful
Yeah darlin' you know
That you make me feel so beautiful.

Markus Schulz - Without you Near



It's a little bit lonely down here
It's a little bit faint without you near
without you near
without you near

Is it wise to say
While the other's waiting
She's contemplating you
Another passes by the door
Any other day, you just look Around and
All you see is gone
All you see is gone

How can you sit there watching
Someone else?
How can you sit there, sit there watching

Faint without you near
Lonely down here
 
"You could be happy and I won't know
But you weren't happy the day I watched you go

And all the things that I wished I had not said
Are played in loops 'till it's madness in my head

Is it too late to remind you how we were
But not our last days of silence, screaming, blur

Most of what I remember makes me sure
I should have stopped you from walking out the door

You could be happy, I hope you are
You made me happier than I'd been by far

Somehow everything I own smells of you
And for the tiniest moment it's all not true

Do the things that you always wanted to
Without me there to hold you back, don't think, just do

More than anything I want to see you go
Take a glorious bite out of the whole world"

- "You could be Happy" by Snow Patrol
 
Charles Mason - Sick City

TALK:
[laugh] Let's see.
What was we talkin' about?
Sick City, y'kay

Restless people, from the sick city
But they're home, now to make the sky look pretty
What can I do, I'm just a person
Just a line that we always seem to hear
You just sit
Things get worse and
SING:
Watch TV and drink your beer

Walkin' all alone not goin' anywhere
Walkin' all alone nobody seem to care

Restless as the wind
This town is killin' me
Got to put an end
To this restless misery

I'm just one of those restless people
Who can never seem to be satisfied with livin'
'Cause sick old sick sick sick old sick city
It may be too late for me to say goodbye
And it may be too late
To watch the sick old city die
Goin' on the road
Yeah I'm gonna try to say
Sick city so long goodbye and die

it's a bit on the depressing side, sorry guys
 
justin bond & the hungry march band - in the end

we all bear the scars
yeah, we all feign a laugh
we all cry in the dark
get cut off before we start

and as your first act begins
you realise they're all waiting
for a fall, for a flaw, for the end

and there's a past stained with tears
could you talk to quiet my fears
could you pull me aside
just to acknowledge that i've tried

as your last breath begins
contently take it in
cause we all get it in
the end

and as your last breath begins
you find your demon's your best friend
and we all get it in
the end

The Fray - How To Save A Life

Step one, you say we need to talk.
He walks, you say sit down it's just a talk.
He smiles politely back at you,
You stare politely right on through.
Some sort of window to your right.
As he goes left and you stay right.
Between the lines of fear and blame
And you begin to wonder why you came.

Where did I go wrong?
I lost a friend somewhere along in the bitterness.
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I know how to save a life.

Let him know that you know best
Cuz after all, you do know best.
Try to slip past his defense
Without granting innocence
Lay down a list of what is wrong
The things you've told him all along.
And pray to God he hears you.

As he begins to raise his voice,
You lower yours and grant him one last choice.
Drive until you lose the road
Or break with the ones you've followed.
He will do one of two things.
He will admit to everything,
Or he'll say he's just not the same
And you'll begin to wonder why you came.
 
I was born botanical
the soul of an animal
deep beneath the layers, I sink my roots
no need for mechanical
I come strictly organical
when I need to feast, I look to the East
that's why I'm never scared of the beast
even though they try to prey upon me
I'm protected by the one always greater than me
so now I reveal to thee
because you wanna see
the contour of my mystery
the strength of my arches
the colour of my conscience
and the way that I process my diction
some fact some diction some mystery
some future fantasy
I'm the trunk that holds the branches
the leaves who do the dances
my flowers romantic
my love gigantic
from Africa, transplanted translantic
in the heat of the sun
I bring shade for everyone
like the beat on the one

I'm the skin on the drum

(chorus)
I keep on living with the fullness of the one
like the heat of the sun or the skin on the drum

I'm fully marinated and now I'm ready for the fire
so you can fire one
fire one
fire two

See I've been fully marinated
and now I'm ready for the fire
see I'm beginning to perspire
from deep within to the skin
yo, the feminine and the masculine
the pieces of the puzzle
see my reflections in the puddle
after the storm the purple of the sky
brings to mind another time
when we resided
below the water line
life was fine there human divine
but in the years following
evil men came swallowing
everything in sight
some learned to run, some stayed to fight
I kneeled at the tomb of the soldier
said I would love to behold her
the magic in store there
she touched me on the shoulder
she said, "in time all is revealed, box of light be unsealed
now listen to me son, be like the skin on the drum"
(chorus)

And as the pepper gas clears
and police and protestors go home
just as the morning dew are tear drops of the night
my emotions are always there for you
and will never leave you dry
bless

"Goodnight" By Erasure

​
Sleepless nights don't bother me at all
If dawn comes I won't worry
Something deep inside keeps me awake
I wish that you were here right beside me, woah

I recall when I was very young
And could not go to sleep
My father sang me songs to make me tired
But memories don't make it easier

So goodnight wherever you are sleeping
And I hope that if you dream you dream of me
So goodnight wherever you are sleeping
And I hope that if you dream you dream of me

Now I lie awake and it's no fun
Tossing and turning
I'd call you if it weren't so very late
But telephones don't bring you close to me, woah

I recall the times we stayed up late
Wide awake but still dreaming
There was nothing on this earth could make me tired
But memories don't make it easier

So goodnight wherever you are sleeping
And I hope that if you dream, if you dream, you dream of me
So goodnight wherever you are sleeping
And I hope that if you dream, if you dream, you dream of me
And I hope that if you dream you dream of me
 
Roll With It- Oasis

You gotta roll with it you gotta take your time
You gotta say what you say don't let anybody get in your way
'cause its all too much for me to take

Don't ever stand aside don't ever be denied
You wanna be who you be if your coming with me
I think ive got a feeling im lost inside
I think im gonna take me away and hide
Im thinking of things that i just can't revive
I know the roads on which your life will drive
I find the key that lets you slip inside
Kiss the girl she's not behind the door
You know i think i recognize your face
But ive never seen you before

You gotta roll with it you gotta take your time
You gotta say what you say don't let anybody get in your way
'cause its all too much for me to take

I know the roads on which your life will drive
I find the key that lets you slip inside
Kiss the girl she's not behind the door
You know i think i recognize your face
But ive never seen you before

You gotta roll with it you gotta take your time
You gotta say what you say don't let anybody get in your way
'cause its all too much for me to take

Don't ever stand aside don't ever be denied
You wanna be who you be if your coming with me

I think ive got a feeling im lost inside
I think ive got a feeling im lost inside
I think ive got a feeling im lost inside
I think ive got a feeling im lost inside
I think ive got a feeling im lost inside
I think ive got a feeling im lost inside
I think ive got a feeling im lost inside
I think ive got a feeling im lost inside
 
Oh, we're growing, faster than we ever could have dreamed
And our bellies are bulging,
we're gonna burst right through our seams
It's got us all in competition for wealth and recognition
Globalization I say's a contradiction, for
We can't keep paving over this world we won't all fit in

*Chorus:*
And all that we have is hope and love
So don't you worry child
Don't you worry bout a thing in the none
But those can lift us up
So we can rise above
So we can rise above
And all that we have is hope and love
So don't you worry child
Don't you worry bout a thing in the none
But those can lift us up
So we can rise above
So we can rise above
the madness

And there's enough wealth for everyone
But some have most and most have some
And there's enough food for us all to flourish
Tell me why are so many malnourished
Say there's weakness in an empty pocket
No and I'll tell you there's weakness in an empty heart
And you say there's strength in the power to control
And I say no, there's strength in only love and compassion

*Chorus*

Soon we'll find our own way home
Cause we all need a little healin' sometimes
Soon we'll find our own way home
Cause we all need a little healin sometimes
So give love it's the only thing that heals you
Come on sisters
Give it to your brothers
So give love it's the only thing that heals you
Cause we all need a little healin'
So give love it's the only thing that heals you
Come on brothers
Give it to your sisters
So give love it's the only thing that heals you
Cause we all need a little healin'

And I can rest assured you that love will always cure you
No matter what the sickness is
No matter what hurts you

And if you give it I have learned it will all be returned
If you only give love
If you only just give your love

All we need is hope and love
So we can rise above the madness

Blue October - Let It Go

Where do you go
When the day is long
And where does your heart beat
And who is wrong

Why do I feel this way
Why do I kneel
How could I let it go
Why do I feel
Why do I feel
Why

Follow me home
Through the, the maze and on
I'll show you the road
That I led you the wrong way on

Why did I go that way
Why do I steal
How could I let her go
Why do I feel

Oh why did I go that way
Why do I steal
How could I let her go
Why do I feel
Why do I feel
Why

Why
Why did I go that way
Why do I need
How could I let her go
Why do I feel

Oh why did I go that way
How could I steal
Oh how could I
How could I
How could I

How could I
How could I
 
For the cub.

Syd Barrett - Late Night

When I woke up today
and you weren't there to play
then I wanted to be with you
when you showed me your eyes
whispered love at the skies
then I wanted to stay with you
inside me I feel
alone and unreal
and the way you kiss will always be
a very special thing to me...

When I lay still at night seeing
stars high and light
then I wanted to be with you
when the rooftops shone dark
all alone saw a spark
spark of love just to stay with you
inside me I feel
alone and unreal
and the way you kiss will always be
a very special thing to me...

If I mention your name
turn around on a chain
then the sky opens for you
when we grew very tall
when I saw you so small
then I wanted to stay with you
inside me I feel
alone and unreal
and the way you kiss will always be
a very special thing to me...
 
Weezer - "The Damage in You"

One more time
I have crossed the line
Now you won't be mine
Anymore

One more dream
Vanished up in smoke
Now i have no hope
Anymore

Let it go
The damage in your heart
Let it go
The damage in your heart
I can't tell you how the words have made me feel
I can't tell you how the words have made me feel

One more tear
Falling down your face
Doesn't mean that much to the world

One more loss
In a losing life
Doesn't hurt so bad
Anymore

Let it go
The damage in your heart
Let it go
The damage in your heart
I can't tell you how the words have made me feel
I can't tell you how the words have made me feel

One more tear
Falling down your face
Doesn't mean that much to the world

Let it go
The damage in your heart
Let it go
The damage in your heart
I can't tell you how the words have made me feel
I can't tell you how the words have made me feel
I cant tell you
I cant tell you
I cant tell you
How the words have made me feel
 
(Jah Wobble's Invaders Of The Heart: Wobble/Adams/Reynolds)

When the storm comes

Wait until the storm comes
Out here in oblivion
Wait until the storm comes
Make it pure as platinum
When I look in your eyes
I see the whole world
I feel like I'm falling
In love with the world again
Let your love wash over me
Cleansing waters run
Thunder rolls at last I'm free
Let your love wash over me
Let your love rain down
No-one ever knew it
Because we didn't show it
No-one ever knew it
They didn't want to see it
Lying in a dark room
Such a turbulent womb
Lying in a dark room
Where wild flowers could never bloom
Love love love love love
 
SPIRAL ARCHITECT - Black Sabbath

Sorcerors of madness
Selling me their time
Child of God sitting in the sun
Giving peace of mind
Fictional seduction
On a black snow sky
Sadness killed the superman
Even fathers cry
Of all the things I value most of all
I look inside myself and see my world and know that it is good
You know that I should

Superstitious century
Didn't time go slow
Separating sanity
Watching children grow
Synchronated undertaker
Spiral skies
Silver ships on plasmic oceans
In disguise
Of all the things I value most in life
I see my memories and I feel their warmth and know that they are good
You know that I should

Watching eyes of celluloid
Tell you how to live
Metaphoric motor replay
Give give give
Laughter kissing love
Is showing me the way
Spiral city architect
I build, you pay
Of all the things i value most of all
I look upon my earth and feel the warmth and know that it is good
You know that i should
You know that i should
You know that i should
You know that i should
