Gareth - You Found Me (The Fray cover)

 

I found God
On the corner of First and Amistad
Where the west
Was all but won
All alone
Smoking his last cigarette
I said, "Where you been?"
He said, "Ask anything"
Where were you
When everything was falling apart?
All my days
Were spent by a telephone
That never rang
And all I needed was a call
That never came
To the corner of First and Amistad

Lost and insecure
You found me, you found me
Lying on the floor
Surrounded, surrounded
Why'd you have to wait?
Where were you? Where were you?
Just a little late
You found me, you found me

In the end
Everyone ends up alone
Losing her
The only one who's ever known
Who I am
Who I'm not, and who I wanna be
No way to know
How long she will be next to me

Lost and insecure
You found me, you found me
Lying on the floor
Surrounded, surrounded
Why'd you have to wait?
Where were you? Where were you?
Just a little late
You found me, you found me

For early morning
The city breaks
And I've been calling
For years and years and years and years
And you never left me no messages
You never send me no letters
You got some kind of nerve
Taking all I want

Lost and insecure
You found me, you found me
Lying on the floor
Where were you? Where were you?
Lost and insecure
You found me, you found me
Lying on the floor
Surrounded, surrounded
Why'd you have to wait?
Where were you? Where were you?
Just a little late
You found me, you found me

Why'd you have to wait
To find me? To find me? 

 

Merrick Winter & Molly Parden - One For Sorrow (Two For Joy)

 

Good morning, Mr Magpie

Has something else caught your eye?

Shining auburn and temperate gold

What was bought must be sold

 

So fly between the rafters

And make your nest somewhere up high

And lie beside your treasures

Somewhere that you're out of sight

 

So have one for sorrow and two for joy

I was one of your favorite toys

String me up like a jewel on a chain

And wear me down till I'm smooth from the shame

 

You stole me by the ounces

The little things that I wouldn't miss

Till I was bare and helpless

But lighter than I've ever been

 

Well, I really should salute you

Seems nothing can pollute you

And bad luck you're not my enemy

So you can have my memories

 

So good morning, Mr Magpie

I hope that you're doing well

And in case you ever wondered

All that you took was my shell

 

Something shiny on the outside

And underneath my living hell

And an echo of the ocean

Hold it up, hear the swell

 

So have one for sorrow, two for joy

Now you have all your favorite toys

One for sorrow, two for joy

I was one of your favorite toys

 

You can sample whatever you like

Peck my heart out not even for spite

Владимир Высоцкий - Банька По-Белому

 

Протопи ты мне баньку по-белому,
Я от белого свету отвык,
Угорю я — и мне, угорелому,
Пар горячий развяжет язык.

Протопи, протопи, протопи ты мне баньку, хозяюшка,
Раскалю я себя, распалю,
На полоке, у самого краюшка,
Я сомненья в себе истреблю.

Разомлею я до неприличности,
Ковш холодный — и всё позади,
И наколка времён культа личности
Засинеет на левой груди.

Протопи, протопи, протопи ты мне баньку по-белому,
Я от белого свету отвык,
Угорю я — и мне, угорелому,
Пар горячий развяжет язык.

Сколько веры и лесу повалено,
Сколь изведано горя и трасс!
А на левой груди — профиль Сталина,
А на правой — Маринка анфас.

Эх, за веру мою беззаветную
Сколько лет отдыхал я в раю!
Променял я на жизнь беспросветную
Несусветную глупость мою.

Протопи, протопи, протопи ты мне баньку по-белому,
Чтоб я к белому свету привык,
Угорю я — и мне, угорелому,
Пар горячий развяжет язык.

Вспоминаю, как утречком раненько
Брату крикнуть успел: «Пособи!» —
И меня два красивых охранника
Повезли из Сибири в Сибирь.

А потом, на карьере ли, в топи ли
Наглотавшись слезы и сырца,
Ближе к сердцу кололи мы профили,
Чтоб он слышал, как рвутся сердца.

Не топи, не топи, не топи ты мне баньку по-белому —
Я от белого свету отвык,
Угорю я — и мне, угорелому,
Пар горячий развяжет язык.

Ох, знобит! От рассказа не тошно вам?
Пар мне мысли прогнал от ума.
Из тумана холодного прошлого
Окунаюсь в горячий туман.

Застучали мне мысли под темечком:
Получилось, я зря им клеймён.
И хлещу я берёзовым веничком
По наследию мрачных времён.

Протопи, не топи, протопи ты мне баньку по-белому,
Я от белого свету отвык,
Угорю я — и мне, угорелому,
Пар горячий, ковш холодный развяжет язык.
Протопи!…
Не топи!..
Протопи!.. 

 

Борис Гребенщиков - Крестовый Поход Птиц (Вверх!)

 

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

Слово становится плоть
Плоть становится пыль
И губы сжигает страх
Пустоты
И в зареве летних звезд
В конце тропы
Господи мой
Кто если не Ты

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
Выразать нас из сети
Вырезать нас из сети
Вывести нас из сети

Борис Гребенщиков - Death of King Arthur (Again & Again)

 

Of Lancelot du Lake
Tell i no more
But this by leave
These ermytes seven.

And still Kynge Arthur
Lieth there, and Quene Guenever,
As I you newyn.
And Monkes
That are right of lore
Who synge with moulded stewyn
Ihesu, who hath woundes sore,
Grant us the blyss of Heaven.

Sting - Island Of Souls

 

Billy was born within sight of the shipyard
First son of a riveter's son
And Billy was raised as the ship grew a shadow
Her great hull would blot out the light of the sun

And six days a week he would watch his poor father
A working man live like a slave
He'd drink every night and he'd dream of a future
Of money he never would save
And Billy would cry when he thought of the future

Soon came a day when the bottle was broken
They launched the great ship out to sea
He felt he'd been left on a desolate shore
To a future he desperately wanted to flee
What else was there for a shipbuilder's son
A new ship to be built, new work to be done

One day he dreamed of the ship in the world
It would carry his father and he
To a place they would never be found
To a place far away from this town

Trapped in the cage of the skeleton ship
All the workmen suspended like flies
Caught in the flare of acetylene light
A working man works till the industry dies
And Billy would cry when he thought of the future

Then what they call an industrial accident
Crushed those it couldn't forgive
They brought Billy's father back home in an ambulance
A brass watch, a cheque, maybe three weeks to live
And what else was there for a riveter's son
A new ship to be built, new work to be done

That night, he dreamed of the ship in the world
It would carry his father and he
To a place they could never be found
To a place far away from this town
A Newcastle ship without coals
They would sail to the island of souls 

 

HAEVN - Get Up

 

Step out, from the haze
The night is closing in
And the cold is on your skin

Treelines, they sway
When your voice is barely heard
And your vision starts to blur
Sometimes you've got to break, to fully rise again

Get up, it's all right
Get up, it's safe
We're on a journey
Where nothing ever stays the same
Get up, it's all right
Get up, it's safe
We're in the valley
With every step you take, I'll stay

Look back
On your days
When the wind was yours to guide
And the world was on your side
Sometimes you've got to break, to fully rise again

Get up, it's all right
Get up, it's safe
We're on a journey
Where nothing ever stays the same
Get up, it's all right
Get up, it's safe
We're in the valley
With every step you take I'll stay

Get up, it's all right
Get up, it's safe
We're in the valley
With every step you take I'll stay

Get up, it's all right
Get up, it's safe
We're on a journey
Where nothing ever stays the same
Get up, it's all right
Get up, it's safe
We're in the valley
With every step you take, I'll stay 

 

Amber Run - 5AM (Up!)

 

We run into a dark room
And we spasm to the sounds
Of a copy of Morrissey
Or the blues of the Deep South.

And the drugs will only hide it
The feeling never really goes
You won't find love at the bottom
Of a Class-C hole.

And you don't know what you've got until it's gone.
And you don't know who to love until you're lost.
And you don't know how to feel until the moment's passed.
I wish you'd live like you're made of glass.

We've got work in the morning
But it's nearly 5 AM.
Is this really what we envisioned?
We won't be 21 again.

And in the haze you see colours
And problems suddenly make sense.
But the way you've been going
You'll be in an early grave.

And you don't know what you've got until it's gone.
And you don't know who to love until you're lost.
And you don't know how to feel until the moment's passed.
I wish you'd live like you're made of glass. 

Ólafur Arnalds ft. Arnór Dan - Old Skin (Up!)

 

Where the woods would wear the wafting sounds of sea
Roves an oath, in search for something more to be
Still hard for me

Treading lightly, tightly shedding its old skin
Leaving trails of night for light to bring chagrin
While air grows thin

Wailing winds, alarm, in feathers it have dressed
Surrounding what's left inside its chest
We too shall rest

Roaring lungs, as oath becomes through flight past trees
Only the rhythm of love escapes the harmonies
Leaving us a beat

In these hands I'll hide, in these hands I'll hide
While this world collides, this world collides
It's not enough for me, it's not enough for me

In these hands I'll hide, in these hands I'll hide
While this world collides, this world collides
It's not enough for me, it's not enough for me

In these hands I'll hide, in these hands I'll hide
(Where the woods would wear the wafting sounds of sea)
While this world collides, this world collides
(Where the woods would wear the wafting sounds of sea)
It's not enough for me, it's not enough for me

In these hands I'll hide, in these hands I'll hide
While this world collides, this world collides
It's not enough for me, it's not enough for me 

 

Soen - Memorial

 

Stand up straight for the idols' anthem
Raise our flag and don't dare to run away
Fight like warriors become the reaper
Killing to keep them in line

When your life is a device to harvest concern
Don't you tremble
Death will only take a minute

When the war is part of you
Everyone you love will be abandoned
No matter what you do
While the warrior is alive
Kindness and remorse will be deprived
The past will be a lie

Bite your tongue and obey your leader
Troubled paragon swallowed by earth

When the war is part of you
Everyone you love will be abandoned
No matter what you do
While the warrior is alive
Kindness and remorse will be deprived
The past will be a lie

... Memories control your worn soul

Memories hurt us all still we'll never surrender
The bottle becomes your home and the gun is all you can hear
And if you pretend to save us from our intentions
The scars will remind that pain is a passage we'll have to cross

When the war is part of you
Everyone you love will be abandoned
No matter what you do
While the warrior is alive
Kindness and remorse will be deprived
The past will be a lie 

 

Hazlett - Doing My Best

 

So long, goodnight
Watch me go and put it upstairs
How come warm lights
Have a way of making me scared
I know what you liked
But don't know what you like

I'm okay but kinda upset
Told my mum I'm doing my best
It's too late to go and get rest
So I'm gonna live in my head
(Oh no, oh no no)
(Oh no, oh no no)

Cold cup warm stay
Growing up and learn to make tea
Fall comes, too late
Life is short and worrying me
I know what you liked
But don't know what you like

I'm okay but kinda upset
Told my mum I'm doing my best
It's too late to go and get rest
So I'm gonna live in my head
(Oh no, oh no no)
(So I'm gonna live in my head)
(Oh no, oh no no)
(Live in my head)
(So I'm gonna live in my head) 

 

Alex Warren ft. Gigi Perez - Eternity

 

Hear the clock ticking on the wall
Losing sleep, losing track of the tears I cry
Every drop is a waterfall
Every breath is a break in the riptide

Oh, how long has it been? I don't know

But it feels like an eternity
Since I had you here with me
Since I had to learn to be
Someone you don't know

To be with you in paradise
What I wouldn't sacrifice
Why'd you have to chase the light
Somewhere I can't go?

As I walk this world alone
As I walk this world alone

Another glimpse of what could've been (Ooh)
Another dream, another way that it never was
Falling back in the wilderness (Ooh)
Waking up, rubbing salt in the cut

Oh, how long has it been? I don't know

But it feels like an eternity
Since I had you here with me
Since I had to learn to be
Someone you don't know

To be with you in paradise
What I wouldn't sacrifice
Why'd you have to chase the light
Somewhere I can't go?

As I walk this world alone (Alone, alone)
As I walk this world alone (Alone, alone)

It's an endless night, it's a starless sky
It's a hell that I call home (Hell that I call home)
It's a long goodbye on the other side
Of the only life I know

And it feels like an eternity (Mm)
Since I had you here with me
Since I had to learn to be (Mm)
Someone you don't know (Whoa)
To be with you in paradise
What I wouldn't sacrifice
Why'd you have to chase the light
Somewhere I can't go?

As I walk this world alone
As I walk this world alone

Amber Run & Freya Ridings - I Found

 

And I'll use you as a warning sign
That if you talk enough sense then you'll lose your mind
And I'll use you as a focal point
So I don't lose sight of what I want
And I've moved further than I thought I could
But I missed you more than I thought I would
And I'll use you as a warning sign
That if you talk enough sense then you'll lose your mind

And I found love where it wasn't supposed to be
Right in front of me
Talk some sense to me

And I found love where it wasn't supposed to be
Right in front of me
Talk some sense to me

And I'll use you as a makeshift gauge
Of how much to give and how much to take
Oh I'll use you as a warning sign
That if you talk enough sense then you'll lose your mind

Oh and I found love where it wasn't supposed to be
Right in front of me
Talk some sense to me

And I found love where it wasn't supposed to be
Right in front of me
Talk some sense to me

And I found love where it wasn't supposed to be
Right in front of me
Talk some sense to me

And I found love where it wasn't supposed to be
Right in front of me
Talk some sense to me 

 

SYML - When the Party's Over (Billie Eilish cover)

 

Don't you know I'm no good for you?
I've learned to lose you, can't afford to
Tore my shirt to stop the bleedin'
But nothin' ever stops you leavin'

Quiet when I'm comin' home and I'm on my own
I could lie, say, "I like it like that, like it like that"
I could lie, say, "I like it like that, like it like that"

Don't you know too much already?
I'll only hurt you if you let me
Call me friend but keep me closer (Call me back)
And I'll call you when the party's over

Quiet when I'm comin' home and I'm on my own
I could lie, say, "I like it like that, like it like that"
I could lie, say, "I like it like that, like it like that"

But nothin' is better sometimes
Once we've both said our goodbyes
Let's just let it go
Let me let you go

Quiet when I'm comin' home and I'm on my own
I could lie, say, "I like it like that, like it like that"
I could lie, say, "I like it like that, like it like that"

London Grammar - Wasting My Young Years

 

You crossed this line
Do you find it hard to sit with me tonight?
I've walked these miles but I've walked 'em straight lined
You'll never know what was like to be fine

I'm wasting my young years
It doesn't matter if...
I'm chasing old ideas
It doesn't matter if...

Maybe...
We are
We are
Maybe I'm wasting my young years
Maybe...
We are
We are
Maybe I'm wasting my young years

Don't you know that it's only fear
I wouldn't worry, you have all your life
I've heard it takes some time to get it right

I'm wasting my young years
It doesn't matter if...
I'm chasing old ideas
It doesn't matter if...

Maybe...
We are
We are
Maybe I'm wasting my young years
Maybe...
We are
We are
Maybe I'm wasting my young years

I don't know what you want
Don't leave me hanging on
Don't know what you want
Don't leave me hanging on 

 

Cocteau Twins - Carolyn's Fingers

 

 When he said, 'You are full of love'
She fell down into this dirty mess
Some people see me laugh and tell us,
'It's wrong to make fun of me'

(Even they don't give any more)
(Try, try to fall)
She fell down into this mess
(Even then they don't give)
(Try, try to fall)
She fell down and he's so sick of it all
And of me

This part not out of her saw fit to drop
Whispers might prove it all
(You're just closer to me when you fall, but you broke)
This would prove it all
(You just closer to me, but you broke)
This would prove it all
Sleep now
You susur, try to talk
Reach out for that hand

Reach out for that hand
(And even they don't give any more)
(Try, try to fall)
Even then they don't give
(Try, try to fall)
You just closer to me at the fall
But you don't want, want me hand
You're just closer to me
But you don't want, want my hand

This Mortal Coil - Song To The Siren (Up!)

 

On the floating shipless oceans
I did all my best to smile
'Til your singing eyes and fingers
Drew me loving to your isle

And you sang
"Sail to me
Sail to me, let me enfold you
Here I am
Here I am
Waiting to hold you"

Did I dream you dreamed about me?
Were you here when I was full sail?
Now my foolish boat is leaning
Broken love-lost on your rocks

For you sang
"Touch me not
Touch me not, come back tomorrow
Oh my heart
Oh my heart, shies from the sorrow"

Well I am puzzled as the newborn child
I am riddled as the tide
Should I stand amid the breakers?
Or should I lie with death my bride?

Hear me sing
"Swim to me
Swim to me, let me enfold you
Here I am, here I am
Waiting to hold you" 

Miguel Bosé - Lay Down On Me (Again & Again)

 

Your tender touch wakes me from my sleeping
The words on your lips tell me I'm not dreaming
Waking up to you, waking up to you
Skin on my skin, the sound of breathing
The kiss of my love, the power of healing
Giving me new life, giving me new life

Lay down on me, whenever you want
Lay down on me, whenever you want
Lay down, lay down on me, whenever you need
Lay down, lay down on me

Tear up the sheets and blanket regulations
You blow the cover from my imagination
Daring me to move, daring me to move
Hand on my heart, head on my pillow
There's still the wonder, even though we both know
Nothing new today, nothing new today

Lay down on me, whenever you want
Lay down on me, whenever you want
Lay down, lay down on me, whenever you need
Lay down, lay down on me

I'm ready when you call
I'm ready and I'm willing
You've given me your all
You take my breath away...
Woh! Woh! Wowowoh!

Lay down on me, whenever you want
Lay down on me, whenever you want
Lay down, lay down on me, whenever you need
Lay down, lay down on me

Come on come on, just like yesterday
Come on come on, take my breath away
Come on come on, you're the one I need
Come on come on, lay yourself on me 

 

Obywatel G.C. - Podróż Do Ciepłych Krajów

 

(wstawaj... zobacz..)

Przeczuwam że daleko stąd
Na plaży właśnie leży ktoś
Ocean cicho szumi mu
I łasi się do jego stóp

Gdy tylko mocniej skupię się
Przeczuwam że kobiety dwie
Masują lekko jego kark
A on wygląda jakby spał
Jakby spał...

To teraz... to teraz...

Kelnera widzę biały frak
Gdy zmierza w jego stronę - tak
Ostrożnie stawia jedną z tac

Nogawki odwinięte ma... tak...

Przeczuwam
Inny świat
Gdy czuwam
Kiedy nie mogę spać
Za oknem
Pada śnieg
Nie szkodzi
Ważne że chociaż wiem

Tam czas przez słomkę sączy się
Z wysokich szklanek cały dzień
Przeczuwam - choć nie piłem sam
Napojów nieskończony smak

Przeczuwam inny świat
Gdy czuwam
Kiedy nie mogę spać
Za oknem
Pada śnieg
Nie szkodzi
Ważne że chociaż WIEM

(chłopcze! kawalerze! pamiętaj!
W każdej chwili możesz tu być!
Jeśli tylko chcesz!
To w każdej chwili!
Nasze samoloty krążą nad oceanem!
Pamiętaj! możesz tu być!)

Przeczuwam inny świat
Gdy czuwam
Kiedy nie mogę spać

I słyszę również nie wiem skąd
Melodię którą nuci ktoś
Przeczuwam że to ciepły wiatr
Na biodrach kontrabasu gra...
Gra...

Sylwia Grzeszczak & Liber - Mijamy Się (Up!)

 

Który raz myślę to właśnie Ty kolejny błąd,
tracę moc dzień po dniu.
Może rok świetlny stąd, może to niespełna krok,
dzieli nas od siebie już.

Czy drogi te złączy los?
Czy będzie nam to pisane?
Tak szybko kręci się świat,
niewiele tego co trwałe.

Mijamy się, może to właśnie Ty,
tylko dlaczego wciąż, mamy osobno iść?
Stale mijamy się, zrobię największy błąd,
Gdy się zjawisz a ja, powiem że to nie to.

I każdego dnia pytam gdzie jesteś no gdzie?
jak długo jeszcze, bo w tym
szalonym świecie już nie chcę,
kierować się na drogę chaosu Ty znasz,
najlepszy sposób ja chcę Twego dotyku, głosu
I z oczu Twych kraść każde spojrzenie, ich blask
jak ukojenie i żyć tutaj jak w niebie to dzisiaj w cenie,
Próbuję Cię wypatrzeć w tłumie a czas, nieubłaganie wciąż gna
I nadal szukam przestać nie umiem.

Czy drogi te złączy los?
Czy będzie nam to pisane?
Tak szybko kręci się świat,
niewiele tego co trwałe.

Mijamy się, może to właśnie Ty,
tylko dlaczego wciąż, mamy osobno iść?
Stale mijamy się, zrobię największy błąd,
Gdy się zjawisz a ja, powiem że to nie to.

Czy, kiedyś się spotkamy ?
Nie wiem gdzie, Ciebie szukać mam.
Może byłeś niedaleko, może minęliśmy się
i nie będzie drugiej szansy kto wie.. ?

Mijamy się, może to właśnie Ty,
tylko dlaczego wciąż, mamy osobno iść?
Stale mijamy się, zrobię największy błąd,
Gdy się zjawisz a ja, powiem że to nie to.

Mijamy się,
Stale mijamy się...

 

Hey - Moja i Twoja Nadzieja (Up!)

 

Spróbuj powiedzieć to, nim uwierzysz, że
Nie warto mówić kocham
Spróbuj uczynić gest, nim uwierzysz, że
Nic nie warto robić

Nic, naprawdę nic, nie pomoże
Jeśli ty nie pomożesz dziś miłości
Nic, naprawdę nic, nie pomoże
Jeśli ty nie pomożesz dziś miłości

Musisz odnaleźć nadzieję
I nieważne że nazwą ciebie głupcem
Musisz pozwolić by sny
Sprawiły byś pamiętał, że

Nic, naprawdę nic, nie pomoże
Jeśli ty nie pomożesz dziś miłości
Nic, naprawdę nic, nie pomoże
Jeśli ty nie pomożesz dziś miłości

Moja i Twoja nadzieja
Uczyni realnym krok w chmurach
Moja i Twoja nadzieja
Pozwoli uczynić dziś cuda
Nic, naprawdę nic, nie pomoże
Jeśli ty nie pomożesz dziś miłości
Nic, naprawdę nic, nie pomoże
Jeśli ty nie pomożesz dziś miłości
Nic, naprawdę nic, nie pomoże
Jeśli ty nie pomożesz dziś miłości
Nic, naprawdę nic, nie pomoże
Jeśli ty nie pomożesz dziś miłości

Moja i Twoja nadzieja
Pozwoli uczynić nam cuda
Moja i Twoja nadzieja
Pozwoli uczynić nam cuda
Moja i Twoja nadzieja
Pozwoli uczynić nam cuda
