The House Of Love - Shine On

 
In a garden in the House of Love
Sitting lonely on a plastic chair
The sun is cruel when he hides away
I need a sister
I'll just stay

A little girl, a little guy
In a church or in a school
Little Jesus are you watching me?
I'm so young
Just eighteen

She, she-she-she shine on
She-she-she shine on
She-she-she shine on

In a garden in the House of Love
There's nothing real just a coat of arms
I'm not the pleasure that I used to be
So young
Just eighteen

She, she-she-she shine on
She-she-she shine on
She-she-she shine on
I don't know why I dream this way
The sky is purple
Things are right every day
I don't know, it's just this world's so far away
But I won't fight and I won't hate
Well not today

In a garden in the House of Love
Sitting lonely on a plastic chair
The sun is cruel when he hides away
I need a sister
I'll just stay

She, she-she-she shine on
She-she-she shine on
She-she-she shine on

 

Shakespears Sister - I Don't Care

 
Walking through the rooms in my head
I came across your image
You looked at me with that sweet smile and said
Something they won't let me repeat
We hurt the ones we love the most
It's a subtle form of compliment

I don't care if you talk about me
I don't care if you write it out in stone
Whenever I fall I land on my feet
I don't care, I just don't care

Mark the spot you hate with an x
Then shoot your bow and arrow
Do your worst get it all off your chest
I'll hold my breath and swallow
We hurt the ones we love the most
It's a subtle form of discipline

I don't care if you talk about me
I don't care if you write it out in stone
Whenever I fall I land on my feet
I don't care, I just don't care

I don't care if you act like a queen
I don't care if you take it out on me
I've got 9 lives and I land on my feet
I don't care, I just don't care

Out of the alley, I spoke came Victoria
Queen Victoria sitting shocked upon the rocking horse
Of a wave said to the laureate
This minx a course as sharp as any lynx
And blacker deeper than the drinks
As any hottentot without remorse
For the lynx said she and the drinks you can see
Are hot as any hottentot and not the goods for me
Hot as any hottentot and not the goods for me

I don't care if you talk about me
I don't care if you write it out in stone
Whenever I fall I land on my feet
I don't care, I just don't care

I don't care if you act like a queen
I don't care if you take it out on me
I've got 9 lives and I land on my feet
I don't care, I just don't care 

 

Counting Crows - Round Here

 
Step out the front door like a ghost
Into the fog where no one notices
The contrast of white on white
In between the moon and you
The angels get a better view
Of the crumbling difference between wrong and right
Well, I walk in the air between the rain
Through myself and back again
Where? I don't know
Maria says she's dying
Through the door I hear her crying
Why? I don't know

'Round here we always stand up straight
'Round here something radiates

Maria came from Nashville with a suitcase in her hand
She said she'd like to meet a boy who looks like Elvis
And she walks along the edge of where the ocean meets the land
Just like she's walking on a wire in the circus
She parks her car outside of my house
And takes her clothes off
Says she's close to understanding Jesus
And she knows she's more than just a little misunderstood
She has trouble acting normal when she's nervous

'Round here we're carving out our names
'Round here we all look the same
'Round here we talk just like lions
But we sacrifice like lambs
'Round here she's slipping through my hands

Sleeping children better run like the wind
Out of the lightning dream
Mama's little baby better get herself in
Out of the lightning

She says, "It's only in my head."
She says, "Shh I know it's only in my head."
But the girl on the car in the parking lot
Says, "Man you should try to take a shot
Can't you see my walls are crumbling?"
Then she looks up at the building
And says she's thinking of jumping
She says she's tired of life
She must be tired of something

'Round here she's always on my mind
'Round here hey man got lots of time
'Round here we're never sent to bed early
And nobody makes us wait
'Round here we stay up very, very, very, very late

I I can't see nothing, nothing, 'round here
You catch me if I'm falling
You catch me if I'm falling
You catch me 'cause I'm falling down on you
I said, "I'm under the gun..."
'Round here
Oh, man, I said, "I'm under the gun..."
'Round here
Well, I can't see nothing, nothing
'Round here 

 

Said The Sky, Illenium & Chelsea Cutler - Walk Me Home

 
I could cry an ocean to keep me afloat
But the walls won't let me
I could leave the party and no one would know
But my feet are too heavy

Some say she's fickle as water
Someone's daughter
Someone's 2AM kiss in the night
Some know nothing about her
Why she takes cold showers
Why she's a girl tryna get back inside

Moon, walk me home
I'm dying here, dying here
Don't leave me alone
I'm trying here, trying here
Save me from the night
Moon, walk me home

If they could just breathe with my lungs for a day
Then they'd finally get it
How sometimes the truth is just too much to say
So it festers there while

Some say she's fickle as water
Someone's daughter
Someone too drunk to ask for a ride
Some know nothing about her
Why she takes cold showers
Why she's a girl tryna get back inside

Moon, walk me home
I'm dying here, dying here
Don't leave me alone
I'm trying here, trying here
Save me from the night
Moon, walk me home
Walk me home

(Walk me home)
(Walk me home)

Save me from a wasted wish upon a star tonight
If you wouldn't mind, moon, walk me home
Walk me home 

 

Daughtry - Feels Like Tonight

 
You, you got me
Thinking it'll be alright
You, you told me
"Come and take a look inside"
You believe me
In every single lie
But I, I failed you this time

And it feels like tonight
I can't believe I'm broken inside
Can't you see that there's nothing that I wanna do
But try to make it up to you
And it feels like tonight
Tonight

I was waiting
For the day you'd come around
I was chasing
But nothing was all I found
From the moment you came into my life
You showed me what's right

And it feels like tonight
I can't believe I'm broken inside
Can't you see that there's nothing that I wanna do
But try to make it up to you
And it feels like tonight

I never felt like this before
Just when I leave, I'm back for more
Nothing else here seems to matter
In these ever-changing days
You're the one thing that remains
I could stay like this forever

And it feels like tonight
I can't believe I'm broken inside
Can't you see that there's nothing that I wanna do
But try to make it up to you
And it feels like tonight

Tonight (feels like tonight)
Tonight (feels like tonight)
Can't you see that there's nothing that I wanna do
But try to make it up to you
And it feels like tonight
Tonight

Rencontre

 

Si je ne t'avais pas rencontrée, je serais incomplet et infirme de ce qui me serait demeuré caché à jamais, inculte moi aussi de cette partie des choses qui font souffrir, donnent du plaisir et posent au coeur les justes questions. 

Yves Simon, Le prochain amour

The Weeknd ft. Gesaffelstein - Hurt You

 
And now I know relationship's my enemy
So stay away from me
I'm warning you
You try to fill the void with every man you meet
'Cause you're upset with me
I'm warning you

'Cause all the nights you slept alone dryin' your eyes
And all the nights you thought about takin' your life
'Cause if it's love you want again, don't waste your time
But if you call me up, I'm fuckin' you on sight

I don't wanna hurt you (ooh)
I don't wanna hurt you
I don't wanna hurt you (ooh)
I don't wanna hurt you

When you're with him, you close your eyes and think of me
Just call me up again
I'll make you weak
Girl, I'll come to put myself between your legs
Not between your heart
Can't you see?

That all the nights you slept alone, dryin' your eyes ('cause of me, baby)
And all the nights you thought about takin' your life ('cause of me, baby)
If it's love you want again, don't waste your time (don't you waste)
But if you call me up, I'm fuckin' you on sight

I don't wanna hurt you (ooh)
I don't wanna hurt you
I don't wanna hurt you (ooh)
I don't wanna hurt you
I don't wanna hurt you (ooh)
I don't wanna hurt you
I don't wanna hurt you (ooh)
I don't wanna hurt you

I don't want
I don't want
I don't want
I don't want
I don't wanna, baby
I don't wanna, baby
I don't, ooh 

 

Gryffin & Illenium ft. Daya - Feel Good (Up!)

 
Yeah, I doubt, I doubt myself
And I'm too proud to ask for help
When you see me beside myself
I don't have to explain it, baby
Yeah, I'm over picking fights
And tryna mend it with the high
Don't wanna know that I'm not right
I know that I've been lately, lately

Yeah, sometimes I need someone to pick me up
Overdose my mind with the things I love
You can take me there, where my heart beats
Where my heart beats free

Take my hand in the middle of a crisis
Pull me close, show me, baby, where the light is
I was scared of a heart I couldn't silence
But you make me, you make me feel good, I like it
Take my hand in the middle of a crisis
Pull me close, show me, baby, where the light is
I was scared of a heart I couldn't silence
But you make me, you make me feel good, I like it

You make me, you make me feel good

Yeah, I get over-overwhelmed
When all these problems burn like hell
Maybe I just need a friend
Who never calls me crazy, crazy

You pull me off the front
Line before I run
Keep me cool, but not
Get overdone
You can take me there, where my heart speaks
Where my heart speaks free

Take my hand in the middle of a crisis
Pull me close, show me, baby, where the light is
I was scared of a heart I couldn't silence
But you make me, you make me feel good, I like it
Take my hand in the middle of a crisis
Pull me close, show me, baby, where the light is
I was scared of a heart I couldn't silence
But you make me, you make me feel good, I like it

You make me, you make me feel good, I like it, I like it
You make me, you make me feel good

Taking the weights off (oh)
To help with the pressure
And I was here stressing
Thinking it mattered
Been with you for hours, but it feels like seconds
It's only moments and I'm in heaven
It's only moments and I'm in heaven, oh

You make me feel good
You make me feel good
You make me, you make me feel good, I like it

Take my hand in the middle of a crisis
Pull me close, show me, baby, where the light is
I was scared of a heart I couldn't silence
But you make me, you make me feel good, I like it 


Sia - Wanna Be Known

 
It's something and can't go deeper
It's something but I want to breathe you in
It's something and I want to need you
It's something, I'm afraid I might one day
It's something but I can't go further
It's something and I want you to be mine
It's something, I'm afraid you're hurting
It's something when I look into your eyes

When I look into your eyes
When I look into your eyes
When I look into your eyes
When I look into your eyes

Known, known
I wanna be known, known
I wanna be known, known
I wanna be known, known

I wanna be known
I wanna be known
I wanna be known

And some days, we'll domain
At some, I'm imposing my fears
At some place, take my hand
At some place, solve me, dear
It's something, I've been waiting for you
It's something, I thought you'd never come
It's something that I carried it to you
It's something, this time, I won't run

This time, I won't run
This time, I won't run
This time, I won't run
This time, I won't run

Known, known
I wanna be known, known
I wanna be known, known
I wanna be known, known

I wanna be known
I wanna be known
I wanna be known

This time, I won't run
This time, I won't run
This time, I won't run
This time, I won't run
This time, I won't run

Known, known (Known)
I wanna be known, known
I wanna be known, known
I wanna be known, known

I wanna be known
I wanna be known
I wanna be known

I wanna be known
I wanna be known

The Steel Woods - You Don’t Even Know Who I Am

 
She left the car in the driveway
She left the key in the door
She left the kids at her mama's
And the laundry piled up on the floor
She left the ring on the pillow
Right where it wouldn't be missed
She left a note in the kitchen
Right next to the grocery list

It said: You don't even know who I am
You left me a long time ago
You don't even know who I am
So what do you care if I go

He left the ring on the pillow
He left the clothes on the floor
And he called her to say he was sorry
Oh but he couldn't remember what for
He said I've been doin' some thinking
I'm thinking that maybe you're right
Cause I go to work in the morning
And I come home to you every night

And you don't even know who I am
You left me a long time ago
You don't even know who I am
So what do I care if you go

No you don't even know who I am
Oh you left me a long time ago
No you don't even know who I am
So what do you care if I go
Oh, what do I care if you go 

 

Kellie Pickler - Didn't You Know How Much I Loved You

 
I remember the way you made love to me
Like I was all you'd ever need
Did you change your mind
Well I didn't change mine
Now here I am trying to make sense of it all
We were best friends now we don't even talk
You broke my heart
Ripped my world apart

Didn't you know how much I loved you
Didn't you know how much I loved you, baby
I gave you everything, every part of me
Didn't you feel it when I touched you
Didn't I rock you when I loved you, baby
Baby, tell me
Didn't you know how much I loved you

I can't get you out of my head
I still feel you in this bed
Left me all alone
You couldn't be more gone
From falling apart to fighting mad
From wanting you back to not giving a damn
I've felt it all
I've been to the wall

Didn't you know how much I loved you
Didn't you know how much I loved you, baby
I gave you everything, every part of me
Didn't you feel it when I touched you
Didn't I rock you when I loved you, baby
Baby, tell me
Didn't you know how much I loved you

One day justice will come and find you
And I'll be right there in your memory to remind you

Didn't you know how much I loved you
Didn't you know how much I loved you, baby
I gave you everything, every part of me
Didn't you feel it when I touched you
Didn't I rock you when I loved you, baby
Baby, tell me

Didn't you know how much I loved you
Didn't you know how much I loved you, baby
I gave you everything, every part of me
Didn't you feel it when I touched you
Didn't I rock you when I loved you, baby
Baby, tell me
I gave you everything, every part of me 

 

Lord Huron - Ace Up My Sleeve

 
I get by on the dreams I conceive
I defy my bad luck with the will to believe
I just know that I'm destined to be something more
I was born with an ace up my sleeve

Take a drag off of my cigarette
It might help pass the time on the road to regret
Let me know when you're ready to leave
I have all that we need, there's an ace up my sleeve
Take my hand, there's an ace up my sleeve

All I know is I'm gonna stay until I go
Wish me well, I won't play with what I'm dealt

I've been known to look up at the sky
I feel lost in this world and I want to know why
I'll be fine, don't you worry 'bout me
What's the use? I can't lose, there's an ace up my sleeve
I can't lose, there's an ace up my sleeve

All I know, is I'm gonna stay until I go
Wish me well, I won't play with what I'm dealt 

 

Passage Dubail (Paris 10e)


 

Young Guns - Bulletproof

 
Out of time
Out of place
Hate the people we've become
In the cold
We embraced
Tell me where did we go wrong
Should have known
From the start
You'd leave me in the dark
Then I found
A spark
So tonight I'll start a fire

You're
Nothing like I ever knew
Somehow
You can't see I'm bulletproof
So I took the long road
Went the distance
To the bitter end
Oh can't you see I'm bulletproof

I was blind
To my fate
Walked the line and now I run
Cos I see
My mistake
Why did I let down my guard
Should have known
From the start
Like a shot right through my heart
I ignite
The spark
Just to find out who you are

You're
Nothing like I ever knew
Somehow
You can't see I'm bulletproof
So I took the long road
Went the distance
To the bitter end
Can't you see I'm bulletproof

Take it back
Take it back
Now I'm under attack
I can't believe I ever loved you
Sometimes we have
To face things
On our own

You're
Nothing like I ever knew
Somehow
You can't see I'm bulletproof
So I took the long road
Went the distance
To the bitter end
Can't you see I'm bulletproof

So take your best shot
Is that the best you've got?

I can't believe I ever loved you 

 

Until I Wake - Octane

 
Listen to the fables that you spin
I see through the fiction that you're feeding me
Sinking into a dark descent
I tried to pull you out but didn't have the reach

It looks like everything I said would happen, did

You couldn't figure it out, you never pulled your weight
And now that it's too late
You keep running your mouth, you better learn your place
So stay in your own lane

Regrets and memories that we resent
A place I never thought that we would be
Pretend while you lie awake with him
That you're better off because you're in too deep

It looks like everything I said would happen, did

You couldn't figure it out, you never pulled your weight
And now that it's too late
You keep running your mouth, you better learn your place
So stay in your own lane

You put the nail in the coffin
A mistake that I hope stays on your conscience
I put my faith in the wrong thing
You could never change

It looks like everything I said would happen, did

You couldn't figure it out, you never pulled your weight
And now that it's too late
You keep running your mouth, you better learn your place
So stay in your own lane
You couldn't figure it out
You never pulled your weight
You keep running your mouth
You better learn your place

You put the nail in the coffin
A mistake that I hope stays on your conscience 

 

Further Within - Fade Away

 
A role reversal
Two eyes were seeing past the fog
But it's taken its toll
Now seeing rose red cover blackened undertones
I know your heart was breaking
For granted you were taken
I'll smile, but I'm just faking
No sleep but barely waking

And now you're going out with people I don't know
I can't get too close

I see you dancing under a twilight sky and I'm sure
If love runs deep, then so does pain
Now that I see what's in store
What once was truth is no more
Our ghosts are all that still remain
Don't fade away

I used to think I was the one that you needed more
The shit I said was only pushing you out the door
And I'm fucking tired of chasing
I can't lie in the bed but I made it!
I know the drinks I'm taking
Won't fix mistakes I'm making
Opaque, I see you fading
But I won't forget you saying

Young Guns - I Want Out

 
All we are is leaves in the wind
And all of our moments pass us by before they begin

And I know I can't deny
The burning in your eyes
I need a little more now
Wage against the dying light
It's burning me tonight cause I need it

Cause if this is love, baby, I want out
And we'll light up the sky as we burn it down
I know you can't bear it, but let me say
Cause I know it's better this way
If this is love, baby, I want out

All we are is breath against the glass
Just like the ashes of a fire fading fast

Yeah I know I can't deny
The burning in your eyes
I need a little more now
Rage against the dying light
It's burning me tonight cause I need it

Cause if this is love, baby, I want out
And we'll light up the sky as we burn it down
I know you can't bear it, but let me say
We said it was better this way
Cause if this is love, baby, I want out

If this is love, baby, I want out
And we'll light up the sky as we burn it down

Cause if this is love, baby, I want out
And we'll light up the sky as we burn it down
I know you can't bear it, but let me say
We said it was better this way
Cause if this is love, baby, I want out
I want out
I want out 

 

One Desire - Rio

 
Girl, I am thinking of you
And girl, are you thinking of me?
And oh, I am tryin' to get through
And no, this time no one else will do

Rio, I'm going the same way as you
The river will flow and I will follow you

When the river runs dry
When we're both falling down
Rio, I'm still by your side
Rio, you're mine

I live by your name
We're oceans apart, we're still the same
And there's no one to blame
When we drown in these endless tears of pain
Cause you keep changing the rules
Now the tables are turned but I remain
I must be some kind of fool
Cause baby in my dreams I see you

Rio, I'm going the same way as you
The river will flow and I will follow you

When the river runs dry
When we're both falling down
Rio, I'm still by your side
Rio, you're mine

Rio, I'm going the same way as you
The river will flow and I will follow you

When the river runs dry
When we're both falling down
Rio, I'm still by your side
Rio, you're mine
Rio, you're mine

And if the river runs dry
And if we're both falling down
Rio, I'm still by your side
Rio, you're mine 

 

Quai de Valmy (Paris 10e)


 

Evans|Blue - The Pursuit

 
You lived a time of lies until you told me everything
I hope we make amends, but you don't
Life taught you how to fly and then you flew away from me
You left me haunted, star the ending image of the one

Cos they're still in you too low
All the voices you don't know
And they're still in you too low
All the choices that you chose

You harbored all the wasted sighs to define the quiet drone
I'll let you start again, but you won't
I saw you pray for change and then you walked all over me
You wanted what you could not have and now you are alone

Cos they're still in you too low
All the voices you don't know
And they're still in you too low
All the choices that you chose
Make the voices tell me who you are, and who I am to be

Are you alone wherever you are tonight?
I'm alone when you're right here
But I'm still in you somehow
I never left at all
Now I'm still in you too low
So my voice is all you know

Cos they're still in you too low
All the voices you don't know
And they're still in you too low
All the choices that you chose
Leave you nothing left to hold
When you're nothing it's a good time to remind you of one thing
The pursuit begins when this portrayal of life, ends 

 

Dead By April - Calling

 
I picture you now right in front of me
Your beautiful eyes looking right at me
Remember the warmth you used to give me
I wish I could bring it back
Wish I could take it back

Never thought I'd exist, I never thought I could be
The second I saw you, something changed in me
My feelings will run off again naturally
Something changed in me

Can you hear me calling, calling for you?
Can you hear me screaming, screaming for you?
It is like I'm naked out in the rain
Alone and dealing with the pain
Can you hear me calling, calling, calling

Remember the days we spent together
Give anything to have them forever
And all the things we used to laugh at
I Wish I could bring it back
Wish I could take it back

Now I know things that I never knew
I'm standing out here and I'm calling you
You mean the world to me, and believe that it's true
I love you

Can you hear me calling, calling for you?
Can you hear me screaming, screaming for you?
It is like I'm naked out in the rain
Alone and dealing with the pain
Can you hear me calling, calling, calling?

Calling
You mean the world to me
Screaming
You mean the world to me

Can you hear me calling, calling for you?
Can you hear me screaming, screaming for you?
It is like I'm naked out in the rain
Alone and dealing with the pain
Can you hear me calling, calling, calling? 

 

I Prevail - Closure

 
Better off dead
You're better off dead
That's what you told me in my apartment
Threw the keys on the floor
You won't see me again

Forget me you said
Forget me you said
Erase any thought left of me in your head
It's hard to see straight when you only see red
Now I know in my heart it's goodbye to a friend

The damage is done, I'm already gone
Not much left can turn it back around
I've already found closure
Get out the car
You know that it's over
Thought you were the one
Guess that I was wrong
Gave you everything and you let me down
I've already found closure
Get out the car
You know that it's over

Another year older
Another step closer to asking myself
Did I ever really know her?
Took three to four years to finally get sober
But I pour one drink at the end of October

So forgive me you said
Forgive me you said
Erase all the bad things left in your head
The best of us break when we know we can't bend
I know in my heart it's goodbye

The damage is done, I'm already gone
Not much left can turn it back around
I've already found closure
Get out the car
You know that it's over
Thought you were the one
Guess that I was wrong
Gave you everything and you let me down
I've already found closure
Get out the car
You know that it's over

We build it just to break it
Love it just to hate it
All the time I wasted on you

You know that it's over

The damage is done, I'm already gone
Not much left can turn it back around
I've already found closure
Get out the car
You know that it's over
It's over
You know that it's over
