Seether - Walls Come Down

 
I still remember the day that you entered my world
Filled with splendor, a light in the darkness unfurled
Well I figured it out, the louder they shout the more I fall
I'm reliving it now, the essence of how I'll lose this all

So take this doubt and grant me something more
I won't last without a reason to endure

For now and ever, I can't help but get in my way
I feel the pressure, the imminent cloud of dismay
Well the quicker I find a peace in my mind, then I'll feel sane
But the thicker the grime, the deeper the shine I can't reclaim

So take this doubt and grant me something more
I won't last without a reason to endure
Don't mistake me now for an empty shell unsure
When the walls come down we're left with something pure

I still remember the day that you entered my world
Filled with splendor, a light in the darkness unfurled
Well I figured it out, the louder they shout the more I fall
I'm reliving it now, the essence of how I'll lose this all

So take this doubt and grant me something more
I won't last without a reason to endure
Don't mistake me now for an empty shell unsure
When the walls come down we're left with something pure

No, we don't belong out here
No, we don't belong out here
No, we don't belong out here
No, we don't belong out here

Blackberry Smoke - Pretty Little Lie

 
Come over here and sit by me
Tell me everything I wanna hear
I'll pretend that I don't see
The reason you're back over here

You look cold I'll build a fire
There's a box full o' wine in the fridge
We won't talk about what's his name
That's just water under the bridge

Yeah, you made up your mind
But he ain't here with us tonight
So kiss me one more time
Cross every "T" and dot every "I"
Of your pretty little lie
That pretty little lie

I thought we had it all figured out
There was me and there was you and him
I was hoping for a chance to cuss you out
But then you came walkin' in
And it hit me like I ain't been hit before
I guess some of us never change
Now it's you and me sitting on the floor
I'd let you get away with anything

Yeah, you made up your mind
But he ain't here with us tonight
So kiss me one more time
Cross every "T" and dot every "I"
Of that pretty little lie
That pretty little lie
That pretty little lie
That pretty little lie

Yeah, you made up your mind
But he ain't here with us tonight
So kiss me one more time
Cross every "T" and dot every "I"
Of that pretty little lie
That pretty little lie
Your pretty little lie
That pretty little lie

Yeah you a damn liar
Yeah you a damn liar
Baby you a damn liar
Yeah you a damn liar 

 

Владимир Высоцкий - Песня о Земле

 
Кто сказал: "Все сгорело дотла? 
Больше в Землю не бросите семя"? 
Кто сказал, что Земля умерла? 
Нет! Она затаилась на время. 
 
Материнство не взять у Земли, 
Не отнять, как не вычерпать моря. 
Кто поверил, что Землю сожгли? 
Нет! Она почернела от горя. 
 
Как разрезы, траншеи легли, 
И воронки, как раны, зияют, 
Обнаженные нервы Земли 
Неземное страдание знают. 
 
 Она вынесет все, переждет. 
Не записывай Землю в калеки! 
Кто сказал, что Земля не поет, 
Что она замолчала навеки? 
 
Нет! Звенит она, стоны глуша, 
Изо всех своих ран, из отдушин. 
Ведь Земля - это наша душа, 
Сапогами не вытоптать душу! 
 
Кто поверил, что Землю сожгли? 
Нет, она затаилась на время.

 

Sia - Diamonds

 
Shine bright like a diamond
Shine bright like a diamond

Find light in the beautiful sea
I choose to be happy
You and I, you and I, we're like diamonds in the sky
You're a shooting star I see, a vision of ecstasy
When you hold me, I will like, we're like diamonds in the sky

I knew that we'd become one right away
Oh, right away
At first sight, I felt the energy of sun rays
I saw the life inside your eyes

So shine bright, tonight, you and I
We're beautiful, like diamonds in the sky
Eye to eye, so alive
We're beautiful, like diamonds in the sky

Gary Moore - Empty Rooms (Again & Again)

 
Loneliness is your only friend.
A broken heart that just won't mend
Is the price you pay.

It's hard to take when love grows old.
The days are long and the nights turn cold
When it fades away.

You hope that she will change her mind
But the days drift on and on.
You'll never know the reason why she's gone.

You see her face in every crowd.
You hear her voice, but you're still proud
So you turn away.

You tell yourself that you'll be strong.
But your heart tells you
This time you're wrong.

You hope that she will change her mind
But the days drift on and on.
You'll never know the reason why she's gone.

Empty rooms
Where we learn to live without love.
Empty rooms
Where we learn to live without love.
Empty rooms
Where we learn to live without love.

Empty rooms
Where we learn to live without love.
Empty rooms
Where we learn to live without love.

 

HAEVN ft. Lily Meola - Till The Morning

 
I spend my days alone without you
In darkness, lost and not awake
I try to stay afloat in my way
But it's hard when you found solace in another place

Can you bring me to your hideout?
Can I hear your silent calling?
Can we dance with the lights off?
Can you give me till the morning?
Can you give me till the morning?
Can you give me till the morning?

I hear you, but I'm in doubt again
I don't feel you even when you're around
You give me all of your words but in the end there's nothing said
I'm gonna need some time to work this out

I'll be here in my hideout
I can hear your silent calling
We can dance with the lights off
I can give you till the morning
Maybe you've been blinded
Never saw my final warning
We can dance with the lights off
I will hold you till the morning
I will hold you till the morning
I will hold you till the morning

Let us stay in this hideout
Even till the night is falling
We'll keep dancing with the lights off
We can dream until the morning
Can dream until the morning
Dream until the morning
 

 

Collective Soul - Shine

 
Give me a word
Give me a sign
Show me where to look
Tell me what will I find?
What will I find?

Lay me on the ground
Or fly me in the sky
Show me where to look
Tell me what will I find?
What will I find?

Whoa. Heaven, let your light shine down
Whoa. Heaven, let your light shine down
Whoa. Heaven, let your light shine down
Whoa. Heaven, let your light shine down

Love is in the water
Love is in the air
Show me where to look
Tell me will love be there?
Will love be there?

Teach me how to speak
Teach me how to share
Teach me where to go
Tell me will love be there?
Will love be there?

Whoa. Heaven, let your light shine down
Whoa. Heaven, let your light shine down
Whoa. Heaven, let your light shine down
Whoa. Heaven, let your light shine down

Give me a word
Give me a sign
Show me where to look
Tell me what will I find?
What will I find?

Lay me on the ground
Or fly me in the sky
Show me where to look
Tell me what will I find?
What will I find?

Whoa. Heaven, let your light shine down
Whoa. Heaven, let your light shine down
Whoa. Heaven, let your light shine down
Whoa. Heaven, let your light shine down

I'm gonna let it shine, I'm gonna let it shine
Heaven, send a light. Let it shine on me
Hey, yeah, hey, yeah
Heaven, send a light. Let it shine on me

(Shine) Shine on me. Hey, hey, yeah-hey-yeah
(Shine) Well, come on and shine

Five Finger Death Punch - Darkness Settles In

 
Another sun sets down behind me
Another day comes crashing in
There's a whispering wind that's blowing
There's a storm that's closing in
I can hear the trains, they're rolling
To a place I've never been
And I can feel her breath beside me
With an empty glass of gin
As the darkness settles in
I can hear her voice again
I can hear your voice again

Waiting for someone to save me
But everyone just runs away (Runs away)
Waiting for someone to change me
But no one ever comes
I'm breaking down the walls that cage me
But nothing ever falls in place (Falls in place)
Waiting for the end to take me
Blinded by the sun

All the ghosts that live inside me
Always waiting in the wind (Wind)
I can see through my reflection
What I've become and what I've been (Been)
You see, your Heaven doesn't want me
And your Hell won't let me in (In)
It's like I'm holding all the aces
But that I know I'll never win (Win)

Waiting for someone to save me
But everyone just runs away (Runs away)
Waiting for someone to change me
But no one ever comes
I'm breaking down the walls that cage me
But nothing ever falls in place (Falls in place)
Waiting for the end to take me
Blinded by the sun

You can take it away, tear it all down
Spit in my face, pushed to the ground
Look what I've become
I've fallen from grace, bloodied and bound
Taking up space, lost and I'm found
Look what I've become

I can hear the snakes, they're winding
Singing songs of pain and sin
There's an anger overflowing
From this empty glass of gin
As the darkness settles in
And the darkness settles in

Waiting for someone to save me
But everyone just runs away (Runs away)
Waiting for someone to change me
But no one ever comes
I'm breaking down the walls that cage me
But nothing ever falls in place (Falls in place)
Waiting for the end to take me
Blinded by the sun

(You can take it away)
And the darkness settles in
(You can take it away)
And the darkness settles in
(You can take it away)
As the darkness settles in

Sia - Freeze You Out (Again & Again)

 
You know I've been hurt before
Yeah, you know the score and I know you want more
You want me to thaw out
But you know I get ice cold, I get cold
When you don't go slow, but I know you want more
You need me to thaw out

And I know you were worth it
And I know this could work if
I could only let you in
But I'm freezing

I'm not running away
I'm not running away
I will feel the pain and stay
I'm not running again
I'm not running again
Even though I'm scared, baby
And I won't freeze you out
Like I have been
I won't freeze you out
I'm gonna let you in
And I won't freeze you out
Like I have been
I won't freeze you out
My heart is melting

So here's my heart for you to hold
Feel it beat, feel the warm blood flow through my cold
Feel it thaw out
Yeah, I've felt the fear but I push through
It's so worth loving you, you wanted more
And so I thawed out

And I know you were worth it
And I know this could work if
I could only let you in
But I was freezing

I'm not running away
I'm not running away
I will feel the pain and stay
I'm not running again
I'm not running again
Even though I'm scared, baby
And I won't freeze you out
Like I have been
I won't freeze you out
I'm gonna let you in
And I won't freeze you out
Like I have been
I won't freeze you out
My heart is melting

I won't freeze you out, my heart is melting
I won't freeze you out, my heart is melting

I'm not running away
I'm not running away
I will feel the pain and stay
I'm not running again
I'm not running again
Even though I'm scared, baby
And I won't freeze you out
Like I have been
I won't freeze you out
I'm gonna let you in
And I won't freeze you out
Like I have been
I won't freeze you out
My heart is melting
And I won't freeze you out
Like I have been
I won't freeze you out
I'm gonna let you in
And I won't freeze you out
Like I have been
I won't freeze you out
My heart is melting 


Rihanna ft. Mikky Ekko - Stay

 
All along, it was a fever
A cold sweat, hot-headed believer
I threw my hands in the air, said, "Show me something"
He said, "If you dare, come a little closer"

'Round and around and around and around, we go
Oh, now, tell me now, tell me now, tell me now you know

Not really sure how to feel about it
Something in the way you move
Makes me feel like I can't live without you
It takes me all the way
I want you to stay

It's not much of a life you're living
It's not just something you take, it's given

'Round and around and around and around, we go
Oh, now, tell me now, tell me now, tell me now you know

Not really sure how to feel about it
Something in the way you move
Makes me feel like I can't live without you
It takes me all the way
And I want you to stay

Ooh
The reason I hold on
Ooh
'Cause I need this hole gone
Well, funny you're the broken one
But I'm the only one who needed saving
'Cause when you never see the light
It's hard to know which one of us is caving

Not really sure how to feel about it
Something in the way you move
Makes me feel like I can't live without you
It takes me all the way
I want you to stay
Stay

I want you to stay
Ooh 

 

Il était une fois - J'ai encore rêvé d'elle

 
J'ai encore rêvé d'elleC'est bête, elle n'a rien fait pour çaElle n'est pas vraiment belleC'est mieux, elle est faite pour moiTout en douceurJuste pour mon cœurJe l'ai rêvée si fortQue les draps s'en souviennentJe dormais dans son corpsBercé par ses je t'aime
 
Si je pouvais me réveiller à ses côtésSi je savais où la trouverDonnez-moi l'espoirPrêtez-moi un soirUne nuit, juste, pour elle et moiEt demain matin, elle s'en ira
 
J'ai encore rêvé d'elle(Je rêve aussi)Je n'ai rien fait pour ça(J'ai mal dormi)Elle n'est pas vraiment belle(J'ai un peu froid)Elle est faite pour moi(Réveille-toi)Tout en douceurJuste pour mon cœur
 
Si je pouvais me réveiller à ses côtés(Ouvre tes yeux, tu ne dors pas)Si je savais où la trouver(Regarde-moi)Donnez-moi l'espoir(Je suis à toi)Prêtez-moi un soir(Je t'aime)Une nuit, juste pour elle et moiEt demain
 
Enfin je vais me réveiller(Je t'attendais)À ses côtés (regarde-moi)C'est sûr je vais la retrouver(Ouvre tes bras)Donnez-moi un soir(Je suis à toi)Laissez-moi y croire
 
Une vie juste toi et moiEt demain, tu seras là

 

Juanes & Nelly Furtado - Fotografía

 
 Cada vez que yo me voy llevo a un lado de mi piel
Tus fotografías para verlas cada vez
Que tu ausencia me devora entero el corazón
Y yo no tengo remedio más
Que amarte

En la distancia, te puedo ver
Cuando tus fotos, me siento a ver
En las estrellas, tus ojos ver
Cuando tus fotos, me siento a ver

Mira, mira, mira, mirame

Cada vez que te busco te vas
Cada vez que te llamo no estás
Es por eso que debo decir
Que tú sólo en mis fotos estás
Cada vez que te busco te vas
Cada vez que te llamo no estás
Es por eso que debo decir
Que tú sólo en mis fotos estás

Cuando hay, un abismo desnudo
Que se opone entre los dos
Yo me valgo del recuerdo
Taciturno de tu voz
Y de nuevo siento enfermo este corazón
Que no le queda remedio más
Que amarte

En la distancia, te puedo ver
Cuando tus fotos, me siento a ver
En las estrellas, tus ojos ver
Cuando tus fotos, me siento a ver

Ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai
Te puedo ver, yeah

Cada vez que te busco te vas
Cada vez que te llamo no estás
Es por eso que debo decir
Que tú sólo en mis fotos estás
Cada vez que te busco te vas
Cada vez que te llamo no estás
Es por eso que debo decir
Que tú sólo en mis fotos estás

(Cada vez que te busco te vas)
(Solo en mis fotos estás)

Cada vez que te busco te vas
Cada vez que te llamo no estás
Es por eso que debo decir
Que tú sólo en mis fotos estás
Cada vez que te busco te vas
Y cada vez que te llamo no estás
Es por eso que debo decir
Que tú sólo en mis fotos estás

Cada vez que te busco te vas
Y cada vez que te llamo no estás
Es por eso que debo decir
Que tú sólo en mis fotos estás
Cada vez que te busco te vas
Y cada vez que te llamo no estás
Es por eso que debo decir
Que tú sólo en mis fotos estás 

 

Trixie Whitley - Breathe You In My Dreams (Up!)

 
I could move mountains
Sail away
Only cause
I got this much faith
This love
Is alive
But I'm crying
And lonely these nights

Silver shadows walking by my side
Silver shadows walking by our side

But I ain't coming
I ain't coming home tonight
I breathe you in my
I breathe you in my dreams

Ill breathe you in my dreams
I breathe you
I breathe you in my dreams
I breathe you
I'll breathe you in my dreams
I breathe you
I breathe you in my dreams

I can taste our soil
Through the rains of your eyes
You shout
It conflicts with
With the oceans of my
Of my pride

Silver shadows walking by my side
Silver shadows walking by our side

But I ain't coming
I ain't coming home tonight
I breathe you in my
I breathe you in my dreams

Ill breathe you in my dreams
I breathe you
I breathe you in my dreams
I breathe you
I'll breathe you in my dreams
I breathe you
I breathe you in my dreams 


Unknown unknowns

 

Reports that say that something hasn't happened are always interesting to me, because as we know, there are known knowns; there are things we know we know. We also know there are known unknowns; that is to say we know there are some things we do not know. But there are also unknown unknowns—the ones we don't know we don't know.

Tom Walker - Fly Away With Me

 
I'm strumming on the corner
About to catch last the train home
I'll have to jump the barriers
So can you spare a penny for my thoughts
I've been praised upon the pavements
Passers by don't pay much
Chased away by neighbours
Seen things you couldn't make up
If these streets could talk
They'd tell a story or two
I'll paint a picture for you

I can tell you what it feels like
To lose your home on a cold night
Can you see the blood in my red eyes
Have another toke, we'll forget life

So come and fly away with me
To a place where we could be anyone we wanna be
We can bottle up our fear
Brew a taste so sweet
Knock us off our feet
And we'll
Burn our troubles
Inhale them all
Paint the future on a fractured wall
So come and fly away with me
To a place where we could be anyone we wanna be

Still in the station when I wake up
I missed the last train home
Jump back over the barriers
No one's got a penny for my flaws
I'm asleep upon the pavement
Passersby don't say much, tutted at by strangers
Dreamt things you'd never dream of
If these streets could talk they'd tell a story or two
I'll paint a picture for you

I can tell you what it feels like
To lose something you love on a cold night
As the cars roll by under the street lights
There's only one way I can forget life

So come and fly away with me
To a place where we could be anyone we wanna be
We can bottle up our fear
Brew a taste so sweet
Knock us off our feet
And we'll
Burn our troubles
Inhale them all
Paint the future on a fractured wall
So come and fly away with me
To a place where we could be anyone we wanna be

We could be anyone we wanna be
We could be anyone we wanna be

These streets I'm walking
They've started talking to me
Can't you see?
There's only one way outta here
We have to face the things we fear
And we could be anyone we wanna be
Yeah we could be anyone we wanna be

So come and fly away with me
To a place where we could be anyone we wanna be
We can bottle up our fear
Brew a taste so sweet
Knock us off our feet
And we'll
Burn our troubles
Inhale them all
Paint the future on a fractured wall
So come and fly away with me
To a place where we could be anyone we wanna be

We could be anyone we wanna be
We could be anyone we wanna be

Shakespears Sister - Stay (Acoustic version)

 
If this world is wearing thin
And you're thinking of escape
I'll go anywhere with you
Just wrap me up in chains
But if you try to go alone
Don't think I'll understand

Stay with me, stay with me

In the silence of your room
In the darkness of your dreams
You must only think of me
There can be no in between
When your pride is on the floor
I'll make you beg for more

Stay with me, stay with me

You'd better hope and pray
That you'll make it safe
Back to your own world
You'd better hope and pray
That you'll wake one day
In your own world

'Cause when you sleep at night
They don't hear you cries in your own world
Only time will tell if you can break the spell
Back in your own world

Stay with me, stay with me
Stay with me, stay with me...
 

 

Marillion - You're Gone

 
You're gone. As suddenly as you came to me
Like nightfall followed dawn without a day between
You're gone and suddenly I can't see
I'm in the shadow of you
I'm in the shadow of you
I can see you in my minds rose-tinted eye..
Somewhere you're drifting by
Your heels rolling sparks on the lucky street

While here am I, left behind
Stunned and blind
But I can see you from here
I can see you so clear

You are the light
You are the light
You have the day
I have the night
But we have the early hours together

You're gone, and heaven cries.
A thunderstorm breaks from the northern sky
Chasing you back to the daily grind

You're gone. And where am I?
A haunted life
The ghost of your laughter
The half-empty glass
The half-empty glass

And I wait
'til midnight tolls
Two souls almost touching in the dark
I'll be allright

You are the light
You are the light
You have the day
I have the night
But we have the early hours
We have the early hours
We have the early hours together 

 

Niykee Heaton - Lullaby (Up!)

 
Let me sing you a lullaby
Promise I won't stay the night
I just wanna make you feel something, something
Let me sing you a lullaby
Promise I won't stay the night
I just wanna make you feel something, something
Let me sing you a lullaby
Promise I won't stay the night
I just wanna make you feel something, something

Red cup chilling with my hands up
Killing it, I can't stop
Sinning, but I'm winning, so lifted
I'mma take you there
I'mma take you there
Lips so pretty when I lay low
Pull up in your city with my bass low
Can't go with me
Imma take you there
Imma take you there

Let me sing you a lullaby
Promise I won't stay the night
I just wanna make you feel something, something
Let me sing you a lullaby
Promise I won't stay the night
I just wanna make you feel something, something

Can't fuck with me, got my lane closed, shifting
Wearing plain clothes, shitting on you lame hoes
Simply tryna take you there
Let me take you there
Hold up, hold up
Can't fuck with another
Can't touch, only wanna make you love
Baby, let me break you off
Tell me, let me take you there
Let me take you there

Let me sing you a lullaby
Promise I won't stay the night
I just wanna make you feel something, something
Let me sing you a lullaby
Promise I won't stay the night
I just wanna make you feel something, something

So, baby turn the lights off
Let me get inside your mind
Hit the right spot
Swear to god
Oh, baby turn the lights off
Let me get inside your mind
Hit the right spot
Swear to god

Let me sing you a lullaby
Promise I won't stay the night
I just wanna make you feel something, something
Let me sing you a lullaby
Promise I won't stay the night
I just wanna make you feel something, something

Imagine Dragons - Birds (Up!)

 
Two hearts, one valve
Pumpin' the blood, we were the flood
We were the body and
Two lives, one life
Stickin' it out, lettin' you down
Makin' it right

Seasons, they will change
Life will make you grow
Dreams will make you cry, cry, cry
Everything is temporary
Everything will slide
Love will never die, die, die

I know that
Ooh, birds fly in different directions
Ooh, I hope to see you again

Sunsets, sunrises
Livin' the dream, watchin' the leaves
Changin' the seasons
Some nights I think of you
Relivin' the past, wishin' it'd last
Wishin' and dreamin'

Seasons, they will change
Life will make you grow
Death can make you hard, hard, hard
Everything is temporary
Everything will slide
Love will never die, die, die

I know that
Ooh, birds fly in different directions
Ooh, I hope to see you again
Ooh, birds fly in different directions
Ooh, so fly high, so fly high

When the moon is lookin' down
Shinin' light up on your ground
I'm flyin' up to let you see
That the shadow cast is me

I know that
Ooh, birds fly in different directions
Ooh, I hope to see you again
Ooh, birds fly in different directions
Ooh, so fly high, so fly high
Ooh, so fly high, so fly high
Ooh, so fly high, so fly high 


Борис Гребенщиков - Крестовый Поход Птиц

 
Крестовый поход птиц
Начался в чистый четверг
Едва уловимая рябь
Вдоль крыш
По слову пернатых святых
Проникновение вверх
Радость моя
Ты все равно спишь

Долго мы жили впотьмах
И там был потерян ключ
И нас замела круговерть
Сентября
И когда уже нечего ждать
Зеленый луч
Радость моя
Я знал, что не зря

Скажи мне как нам петь тебя
И когда меркнет свет
Пересвети
Зажги мне руки, чтобы я мог взять
Это небо как нож
И вырезать нас из сети
Вырезать нас из сети
