Philip Bailey - Walking On The Chinese Wall

 

Walking on a Chinese
Walking on a Chinese Wall

Watching for the coins to
Watching for the coins to fall

Butterfly, spread
Your painted wings
For an answer
From the Ching

By the stream
Stretching in the rocks
Tiger on the mountaintop

Walking on the Chinese Wall
Watching for the coins to fall

Now the sun is rising in the east
Looking for my golden fleece
Ivory skin, scarlet color deep
Lips that burn but do not speak

Three misty nights
Waiting by the shore
May be that my lover
Comes no more

Red chamber dream
From the sky above
Ancient tales of hidden
Chinese love

On the Chinese Wall
Watching for the coins to fall

Blue red silk burning on my chest
Go to sleep but not to rest
Stepping stones on the yellow sea
Dreaming she'll be there for me

Come down the clouds
To the sea of flames
From the mountain
Hear the cry of pain

Red chamber dream
From the sky above
Ancient tales of hidden
Chinese love

On the Chinese Wall
Watching for the coins to fall
On the Chinese Wall, oh, yeah
Watching for the coins to fall

(On the Chinese Wall)
Butterfly, spread your wings
From an answer from the Ching

(Watching for the coins to fall)
Blue red silk on my chest
Go to sleep but not to rest, oh, no

Walking on the Chinese Wall
Walking on the Chinese Wall
Walking on the Chinese Wall
Watching for the coins to fall... 

 

Don Henley - The End Of The Innocence

 

Remember when the days were long
And rolled beneath a deep blue sky
Didn't have a care in the world
With mommy and daddy standin' by
But "happily ever after" fails
And we've been poisoned by these fairy tales
The lawyers dwell on small details
Since daddy had to fly

But I know a place where we can go
That's still untouched by men
We'll sit and watch the clouds roll by
And the tall grass waves in the wind
You can lay your head back on the ground
And let your hair fall all around me
Offer up your best defense
But this is the end
This is the end of the innocence

O' beautiful, for spacious skies
But now those skies are threatening
They're beating plowshares into swords
For this tired old man that we elected king
Armchair warriors often fail
And we've been poisoned by these fairy tales
The lawyers clean up all details
Since daddy had to lie

But I know a place where we can go
And wash away this sin
We'll sit and watch the clouds roll by
And the tall grass waves in the wind
Just lay your head back on the ground
And let your hair spill all around me
Offer up your best defense
But this is the end
This is the end of the innocence

Who knows how long this will last
Now we've come so far, so fast
But, somewhere back there in the dust
That same small town in each of us
I need to remember this
So baby give me just one kiss
And let me take a long last look
Before we say goodbye

Just lay your head back on the ground
And let your hair fall all around me
Offer up your best defense
But this is the end
This is the end of the innocence 

 

Bruce Springsteen - Nightshift (Commodores cover - Up!)

 

Marvin, he was a friend of mine
And he could sing his song, his heart in every line
Marvin sang of the joy and pain
He opened up our minds, I still can hear him say
"Oh talk to me, so you can see, what's going on"
Say you will sing your songs forevermore (forevermore)

Gonna be some sweet sounds, coming down on the nightshift
I bet you're singing proud, I bet you'll pull a crowd
Gonna be a long night, it's gonna be all right, on the nightshift (on the nightshift)
You found another home, I know you're not alone, on the nightshift

Jackie, hey what you doing now?
It seems like yesterday when we were working out
Jackie, you set the world on fire
You came and gifted us, your love it lifted us higher and higher
Keep it up and we'll be there at your side
Say you will sing your songs forevermore (forevermore)

Gonna be some sweet sounds, coming down on the nightshift (on the nightshift)
I bet you're singing proud, I bet you'll pull a crowd
It's gonna be a long night, it's gonna be all right, on the nightshift (on the nightshift)
You found another home, I know you're not alone, on the nightshift

Gonna miss your sweet voice, that soulful noise, on the nightshift
We all remember you, your song is coming through
Gonna be a long night, it's gonna be all right, on the nightshift (on the nightshift)
You found another home, I know you're not alone, on the nightshift
You found another home, I know you're not alone, on the nightshift

On the nightshift
On the nightshift... 

Gregory Alan Isakov - Mistakes

 

I caught a golden wave
It left me lost at sea
I turned crazy
Wild and awake
The ocean was angry
Foaming at the mouth

Turning in the undertow
Turning in the undertow
Turning in the undertow
Turning in the undertow

Mistakes, aw ya paid and paid and paid for
Sun breaks, but you're finding only shadow
So you paid and paid and paid

I'm on the edge
Stopped breathing
Chasing my head
Tracing my feelings
Paint with my soul
Heart takes a beating
But I'm on the edge
I'm on the edge
All believing

All believing
Follow my sages
Why would I belong?
Why belong?
Why belong?

All believing
It's all in the dust
In the sound of breathing

Shallou & Emmit Fenn - All Your Days

 

We could be together like a clock
Take our time and make it ours
We could be something they're not
We could climb a hill and look at stars
They say stars are way too far
But I know right where you are

All my friends they keep asking
How do you spend
All of your days by her side
And I just I
Will love her till I die
And all your friends
They keep asking
Do you want to spend
All your years by his side
And you just say I just say I
Will never say goodbye

We could fill the space that's in between
Hide away under the sheets
Take a day just you
And we could stay up late and watch TV not even look at the screen
Just talk until we fall asleep

All my friends they keep asking
How do you spend
All of your days by her side
And I just I
Will love her till I die
And all your friends
They keep asking
Do you want to spend
All your years by his side
And you just say I
Will never say goodbye 

 

Lil Wayne ft. Bruno Mars - Mirror (Again & Again)

 

Uh, with everything happening today
You don't know whether you're coming or going, but
You think that you're on your way
Life lined up on the mirror, don't blow it

Whoa, look at me when I'm talking to you
You looking at me but I'm looking through you
I see the blood in your eyes
I see the love in disguise
I see the pain hidden in your pride
I see you're not satisfied
And I don't see nobody else
I see myself, I'm looking at the

Mirror on the wall (Whoa)
Here we are again (Yeah)
Through my rise and fall (Uh)
You've been my only friend (Yeah)
You told me that they can
Understand the man I am
So why are we here
Talking to each other again?

Uh, I see the truth in your lies
I see nobody by your side
But I'm with you when you're all alone
And you correct me when I'm looking wrong
I see the guilt beneath the shame
I see your soul through your window pane
I see the scars that remain
I see Wayne, I'm lookin' at the

Mirror on the wall
Here we are again (Yeah)
Through my rise and fall (Uh-huh)
You've been my only friend (My only friend)
You told me that they can't
Understand the man I am (They can't understand)
So why are we here (Misunderstood)
Talking to each other again? (Whoa)

Looking at me now I can see my past
Damn, I look just like my fucking dad
Light it up, that's smoke and mirrors
I even look good in a broken mirror
I see my mama smile, that's a blessing
I see the change, I see the message
And no message coulda been any clearer
So I'm starting with the man in the

Mirror on the wall (MJ taught me that)
Here we are again
Through my rise and fall (Uh)
You've been my only friend (Take 'em to Mars, man)
You told me that they can
Understand the man I am
So why are we
Talking to each other again? (Uh)
Mirror on the wall (Whoa)
Here we are again (Yeah)
Through my rise and fall
You've been my only friend (Any questions?)
You told me that they can (I come to you)
Understand the man I am (You always have the answer)
So why are we here
Talking to each other again?

Mirror on the wall
Hey B.P, looks like I did take 'em to Mars this time
So why are we
Talking to each other again?

Avril Lavigne - Nobody's Home

 

 Well, I couldn't tell you
Why she felt that way
She felt it every day
And I couldn't help her
I just watched her make
The same mistakes again

What's wrong, what's wrong now?
Too many, too many problems
Don't know where she belongs
Where she belongs

She wants to go home
But nobody's home
It's where she lies
Broken inside
With no place to go
No place to go to dry her eyes
Broken inside

Open your eyes
And look outside
Find the reasons why
You've been rejected
And now you can't find
What you've left behind

Be strong, be strong now
Too many, too many problems
Don't know where she belongs
Where she belongs

She wants to go home
But nobody's home
It's where she lies
Broken inside
With no place to go
No place to go to dry her eyes
Broken inside

Her feelings she hides
Her dreams she can't find
She's losing her mind
She's fallen behind

She can't find her place
She's losing her faith
She's fallen from grace
She's all over the place

She wants to go home
But nobody's home
It's where she lies
Broken inside
With no place to go
No place to go to dry her eyes
Broken inside

She's lost inside, lost inside, oh oh oh
She's lost inside, lost inside, oh oh oh

Silent Theory ft. Josey Scott - Just My Luck (Up!)

 

Never thought it would end up quite like this
Drowning deep in a world that I won't miss
If you want to know the truth
I played this part for far too long
Lose a little more
Gain a little back 'til I'm gone
Will this hurt me like it should?

Did it take from you
Everything like it did from me?
Never feeling good enough
Truth be told
It's just my luck
Did it take from you
Everything like it did from me?
Well I can't make it on my own
(And I can't decide if we're even!)

You should realize
When there's a heart of my size
I've been constantly infiltrated
By your venomous pack of lies
You could never hide
God only knows that I've tried
With every secret that you've buried
Always there in your eyes
I told you so many times
But you could never surmise
How I could always figure you
Out almost every time
I treated you like a prize
For you I'm ready to die
And when I tell you all these things
You just look at me and smile
I gave you all of the things
And how much joy did it bring?
Then you treated me like I'm nothing
Gave you everything
A million different dreams
A million different things
But hurt people hurt people
When it's not what it seems

Did it take from you
Everything like it did from me?
Never feeling good enough
Truth be told
It's just my luck
Did it take from you
Everything like it did from me?
Well I can't make it on my own
(And I can't decide if we're even!)

Did it take from you
Everything like it did from me?
Never feeling good enough
Truth be told
It's just my luck
(It's just my luck!)
Did it take from you
Everything like it did from me?
Well I can't make it on my own
(And I can't decide if we're even!) 

 

Evans|Blue - Erase My Scars (Again & Again)

 

Reckless and weary,
The truth has been buried,
Held down by the hand,
That refuses to carry.
The burden you built,
The lies, do you hear me?
The insult, the white flag,
You refuse to carry.
I'm letting you go,
And all that you showed me.
I'm letting you know,
That you don't control me.
The feeling is cold,
And life is unfolding.
Reckless and weary,
I'm desperately holding on.

So if you can't get a word in,
Its because I don't care what you think,
Don't be alone inside,
A world that's filled with make-believe.

Broke! Inside,
This life, you can never be reborn within,
I came this far erase my scars.
Fight! This time,
Inside, take a break from the lie you live,
I came this far, erase my scars.

Find my control,
Find reasons to beat this,
Find truth below,
The lies and the wreckage.
I can't let go,
I'm too close, too restless,
I'm letting you know,
I'm far too aggressive.

So if you can't get a word in,
Its because I don't care what you think,
Don't be alone inside,
A world that's filled with make-believe.

Broke! Inside,
This life, you can never be reborn within,
I came this far erase my scars.
Fight! This time,
Inside, take a break from the lie you live,
I came this far erase my scars.

Five years ago,
My life was affected,
By years of hope and learning life lessons.
You let me know,
By leaving me helpless,
What then was unknown is now unprotected.

I'm so!
Broke! Inside,
This life, you can never be reborn within,
I came this far erase my scars.
Fight! This time,
Inside, take a break from the lie you live,
I came this far, erase my scars.

Bullet For My Valentine - Hearts Burst Into Fire

 

 I'm coming home!
I've been gone for far too long!
Do you remember me at all?
I'm leaving
Have I fucked things up again?
I'm dreaming
Too much time without you spent!

It hurts!
Wounds so sore!
Now I'm torn
Now I'm torn

I've been far away
When I see your face
My hearts burst into fire!
Hearts burst into fire!

You're not alone
I know I'm far from home!
Do you remember me at all?
I'm leaving
Do you wait for me again?
I'm screaming
No more days without you spent

It hurts!
Wounds so sore!
Now I'm torn
Now I'm torn

I've been far away
When I see your face
My hearts burst into fire!
Hearts burst into fire!

My bed's so cold, so lonely
No arms, just sheets to hold me
Has this world stopped turning?
Are we forever to be apart?
(Forever to be apart)

It hurts!
Wounds so sore!
Now I'm torn
Now I'm torn

I've been far away
When I see your face
My hearts burst into fire!
Hearts burst into fire!

I'm coming home
I've been gone for far too long!
(I'm coming home)
Do you remember me at all?
Do you remember me at all?
I'm leaving
I'm screaming
I'm dreaming
My hearts burst into fire!

Through Fire - Breathe (❤️)

 

I fade to black
As I search for the light
Can you bring me back
From this unconscious life?
Can you show me the way?
I'm lost in the dark
I'm fallin' apart
Can you unbreak my heart?

So I can breathe
Before I suffocate
Before it's all too late
Before I die this way
I need to breathe
Before I slip away
While there's something left to save
Can you help me?
I need to breathe

I hear the angels calling
Can you send one down?
I see the demons crawling
They're everywhere around
Can you pull me out
From the mess I'm in
Before my lungs collapse
And there's no turning back?

I need to breathe
Before I suffocate
Before it's all too late
Before I die this way
I need to breathe
Before I slip away
While there's something left to save
Can you help me?
I need to breathe
I need to breathe

Can you hear me?
I'm screaming
I'm broken down
And bleeding
Help me make it through
I need you

I fade to black
As I search for the light
Can you bring me back
From this unconscious life?

(Help me) breathe
Before I suffocate
Before it's all too late
Before I die this way
I need to breathe
Before I slip away
While there's something left to save
Can you help me?

I need to breathe
Before I slip away
(Can you rescue me)
I need to breathe
Before it's all too late
(Can you rescue me)
I need to breathe
Before I die this way
(Can you rescue me)
I need to breathe
I need to... I need to... I need to...
(Can you rescue me)
I need to breathe 

Winterliche Atmosphäre (Berlin)

 

Calogero - 1987 (Up!)

 

Tu te souviens
Les couleurs sur les baskets
Les crayons dans les cassettes
Je rembobine
Tu te souviens
Tous ces rêves plein nos disquettes
À Paris c'était les States
1987

Il y a certains jours où je reprends mon skate
Et je vais faire un tour en 1987
Il y a certains jours dans lesquels je me jette
Et je suis de retour en 1987
Tu sais de tous ces jours y a rien que je regrette
Mais parfois je retourne en 1987, en 87

Tu te souviens
Les survêt et les houppettes
Sabrina et 7 sur 7
Dans la cuisine c'était rien

Que 12 mois sur la planète
L'URSS, INXS
On chantait I want your sex

Il y a certains jours où je reprends mon skate
Et je vais faire un tour en 1987
Il y a certains jours dans lesquels je me jette
Et je suis de retour en 1987
Tu sais de tous ces jours y a rien que je regrette
Mais parfois je retourne en 1987, en 87

Tu verras bien qu'un jour une chanson dans la tête
Tu auras à ton tour ton 1987
Tu verras bien qu'un jour une chanson dans la tête
Tu auras à ton tour ton 1987
C'est tout ce que je te souhaite
Tu auras à ton tour ton 1987
C'est tout ce que je te souhaite
Tu auras à ton tour ton 1987
C'est tout ce que je te souhaite
Tu auras à ton tour ton 1987
Tu te souviens
J'aime les paroles 

Florent Pagny - Châtelet-Les Halles

 

Entre gris et graffitis où s'enferme le quotidien
Et des murs tellement petits qu'on entend tout des voisins
Avec pour seul vis-à-vis des montagnes de parpaings
Où déambule l'ennui et se traînent des destins
Le samedi après-midi, prendre des souterrains
Aller voir où ça vit de l'autre côté, ligne un

Châtelet, Châtelet-Les Halles
Station balnéaire mais où y a pas la mer
Comme de banlieue la plage
Voir un peu de bleu, échouer sa galère
Marquer son passage, suivre les tags quand y a plus de repères
Châtelet, la fin du voyage

C'est pas ici Tahiti mais c'est toujours mieux que rien
Les baskets sur le parvis ne vont jamais très loin
On y piétine les débris et les abris clandestins
Éprouvant même du mépris à ceux qui tendent la main
De Harlem à Paris, s'engouffrer dans un train
Puis un couloir qu'on suit, ne pas aller plus loin, ligne un

Châtelet, Châtelet-Les Halles
Station balnéaire mais où y a pas la mer
Voir un peu de bleu, Châtelet, échouer sa galère
Marquer son passage, suivre les tags quand y a plus de repères
Châtelet la fin du voyage, la fin du voyage, la fin du voyage
La fin du voyage

Yseult - Corps (Up!)

 

Le corps nu sur le sol
Je me fais du mal depuis des années
La main sur les yeux
Pas envie de la retirer
Y a pas d' place pour les fades
Y a pas d'place pour les regrets
Le cœur sur le sol
Relève-toi, faut pas déconner

J'ai ces bruits dans ma tête et j'aimerais que ça cesse, mais en vain
 J'ouvre un peu les yeux, des couleurs, des photos me reviennent
Tous ces bruits dans ma tête, faut que ça cesse
J'ai perdu la tête - où est le chemin de ma maison ?
Quoi qu'il advienne, je retrouverai les clés de la raison
J'ai perdu la tête - où est le chemin de ma maison ?
Quoi qu'il advienne

Quoi qu'il advienne
Le regard des gens, j'en ai que faire
Qui sont-ils pour me juger ?
Un pardon à mon père, ouais
Insolente, je l'étais
Dans les yeux de mon frère
Ouais, des claques il s'en est bouffé
Sur les joues de ma mère
Des rivières se sont écoulées

J'ai ces bruits dans ma tête et j'aimerais que ça cesse, mais en vain
 J'ouvre un peu les yeux, des couleurs, des photos me reviennent
Tous ces bruits dans ma tête, faut que ça cesse
J'ai perdu la tête - où est chemin de ma maison ?
Quoi qu'il advienne, je retrouverai les clés de la raison
J'ai perdu la tête - où est chemin de ma maison ?
Quoi qu'il advienne, je retrouverai les clés de la raison

J'ai perdu la tête - où est le chemin de ma maison ?
Quoi qu'il advienne, je retrouverai les clés de la raison
J'ai perdu la tête, ouais
Quoi qu'il advienne, je retrouverai les clés de la raison

Emmanuel Moire - Je Fais De Toi Mon Essentiel

 

Je sais ton amour
Je sais l'eau versée sur mon corps
Sentir son cours jour après jour
J'ai remonté les tourments pour m'approcher encore
J'ai ton désir ancré sur le mien
J'ai ton désir ancré à mes chevilles
Viens, rien ne nous retient à rien
Tout ne tient qu'à nous

Je fais de toi mon essentiel
Tu me fais naître parmi les hommes
Je fais de toi mon essentiel
Celle que j'aimerais plus que personne
Si tu veux qu'on s'apprenne
Si tu veux qu'on s'apprenne

Tu sais mon amour
Tu sais les mots sous mes silences
Ceux qu'ils avouent, couvrent et découvrent
J'ai à t'offrir des croyances
Pour conjurer l'absence
J'ai l'avenir gravé dans ta main
J'ai l'avenir tracé comme tu l'écris
Tiens, rien ne nous emmènes plus loin
Qu'un geste qui revient

Je fais de toi mon essentiel
Tu me fais naître parmi les hommes
Je fais de toi mon essentiel
Celle que j'aimerais plus que personne
Si tu veux qu'on s'apprenne
Si tu veux qu'on s'apprenne
Si tu veux qu'on s'apprenne...

Je ferai de toi mon essentiel
Mon essentiel
Si tu veux qu'on s'apprenne
Qu'on s'appartienne

Ásgeir - Smoke

 

She used to tell me which way to go
If I was standing on a dividing road
A quiet whisper, a little clue
Was enough for me to know what to do

But there's only the cold silence now
Everywhere I go
And I don't know which way is up or down
Can somebody let me know

I heard echoes coming from the night
I went off the path and I paid the price
Felt unworthy and self sabotaged
Drowned out the voice within my heart

And I only hear the silence now
Everywhere I go
And I don't know which way is up or down
Can somebody let me know

And I only hear the silence now
Everywhere I go
And I don't know which way is up or down
Can somebody let me know

I hope she's waiting for me down the line
I'll be listening
When the chaos and the smoke subside
She'll talk to me again 

 

SYML - Clean Eyes (acoustic version)

 

Picture yourself in a room full of broken glass
Blood on the pieces, the pieces you can't put back
A little white light in a sea gone black
My head is the room and the room's full of broken glass

You can't change me, can you save me?

Oh clean eyes
Breaking my heart in all the right ways and
No I don't mind, clean eyes (clean eyes)
Oh clean eyes
Breaking my heart and breaking my chains and
I don't know why, clean eyes (clean eyes)

I'm a cynic I told you I fear what I don't believe
I don't know what this is but this is a different beast
I check the lock on the door three times
Can't put my faith in what I can't describe
I'm a cynic, I told you, I don't believe

Can you save me?

Oh clean eyes
Breaking my heart in all the right ways and
No I don't mind, clean eyes (clean eyes)
Oh clean eyes
Breaking my heart and breaking my chains and
I don't know why, clean eyes (clean eyes)

Take me home when I lost myself
Love me better than I love myself
Well my head is the room and the room's full of broken glass
Take me home when I lost myself
Well my head is the room and the room's full of broken glass
Blood on the pieces, the pieces I can't put back

Oh clean eyes
Breaking my heart in all the right ways and
No I don't mind, clean eyes (clean eyes)
Oh clean eyes
Breaking my heart and breaking my chains and
I don't know why, clean eyes

Oh clean eyes
Breaking my heart in all the right ways and
No I don't mind, clean eyes
Oh clean eyes
Breaking my heart and breaking my chains and
I don't know why, clean eyes (clean eyes) 

Survivor - I Can't Hold Back

 

 

There's a story in my eyes
Turn the pages of desire
Now it's time to trade those dreams
For the rush of passion's fire

I can feel you tremble when we touch
And I feel the hand of fate
Reaching out to both of us

I've been holding back the night
I've been searching for a clue from you
I'm gonna try with all my might
To make this story line come true

Can you feel me tremble when we touch
Can you feel the hand of fate
Reaching out to both of us
This love affair can't wait

I can't hold back
I'm on the edge
I can't hold back
Your voice explodes
Inside my head

I can't hold back
I won't back down
Girl, it's too late
To turn back now

Another shooting star goes by
And in the night the silence
Speaks to you and I

And now the time has come at last
Don't let the moment run too fast

I can feel you tremble when we touch
And I feel the hand of fate
Reaching out to both of us

There's a story in my eyes
Turn the pages of desire
Now it's time to trade those dreams
For the rush of passion's fire

I can't hold back
I'm on the edge
I can't hold back
Your voice explodes
Inside my head

I can't hold back
I won't back down
Girl, it's too late
To turn back now

I can see you tremble when we touch
Ooh, and I feel the hand of fate
Reaching out to both of us
This love affair can't wait

I can't hold back
I can't hold back
I can't hold back

Bruce Springsteen - I'm On Fire (Again & Again)

 

Hey, little girl, is your daddy home?
Did he go away and leave you all alone?
I got a bad desire

Oh, oh, oh
I'm on fire

Tell me now, baby, is he good to you?
And can he do to you the things that I do?
Oh no, I can take you higher

Oh, oh, oh
I'm on fire

Sometimes it's like someone took a knife, baby, edgy and dull
And cut a six-inch valley through the middle of my skull
At night, I wake up with the sheets soakin' wet
And a freight train runnin' through the middle of my head
Only you can cool my desire

Oh, oh, oh
I'm on fire
Oh, oh, oh
I'm on fire
Oh, oh, oh
I'm on fire

Ooh-ooh, ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
