Dave Matthews Band - Grey Street

Oh look at how she listens
She says nothing of what she thinks
She just goes stumbling through her memories
Staring out on to Grey Street.
She thinks, "Hey, how did I come to this?"
I dream myself a thousand times around the world
But I can't get out of this place.

There's an emptiness inside her
And she'll do anything to fill it in
But all the colors mix together - to grey
And it breaks her heart

How she wishes it was different
She prays to God most every night
And though she swears it doesn't listen
There's still a hope in her it might
She says "I pray oh But they fall on deaf ears,
am I supposed to take it on myself?
To get out of this place? "

Oh There's a loneliness inside her
And she'll do anything to fill it in
And though it's red blood bleeding from her now
It feels like cold blue ice in her heart
When all the colors mix together - to grey
And it breaks her heart

There's a stranger speaks outside her door
Says take what you can from your dreams
Make them as real as anything
Oh It'd take the work out of the courage
But she says "Please
There's a crazy man that's creeping outside my door,
I live on the corner of Grey Street
and the end of the world."

Oh there's an emptiness inside her
And she'll do anything to fill it in
And though it's red blood bleeding from her now
It's more like cold blue ice in her heart
She feels like kicking out all the windows
And setting fire to this life
She could change everything about her
Using colors bold and bright
But all the colors mix together - to grey
And it breaks her heart
It breaks her heart
To Grey

Río abajo corre el agua
rio abajo, rumbo al mar
desde el puente
veo el agua del río pasar y pasar
miro abajo y río
de (al) verme pensar :
que yo soy el agua
y tu la ley de gravedad

la vida es larga y yo voy a seguir
camino de tus brazos
si el río corre, no puede más que ir
río abajo

río abajo, y vamos,
que la vida es un tobogán
duele menos soltar la baranda
y dejarse llevar
como el agua del río
camino del mar (que miro al pensar :)

yo soy de hierro
cuando tu eres un imán

el agua da rodeos y al fin termina
siempre por abrirse paso
vendrás ,tarde o temprano hasta mí,
yo sé,
yo soy tu mar y tu vas río abajo(que soy)

Legião Urbana - Que País É Este?

2010-09-07T01:16:00.002-03:00

Nas favelas, no Senado
Sujeira pra todo lado
Ninguém respeita a Constituição
Mas todos acreditam no futuro da nação

Que país é esse?
Que país é esse?
Que país é esse?

No amazonas, no araguaia iá, iá,
Na baixada fluminense
Mato grosso, Minas Gerais e no
Nordeste tudo em paz
Na morte o meu descanso, mas o
Sangue anda solto
Manchando os papéis e documentos fiéis
Ao descanso do patrão

Que país é esse?
Que país é esse?
Que país é esse?
Que país é esse?

Terceiro mundo, se for
Piada no exterior
Mas o brasil vai ficar rico
Vamos faturar um milhão
Quando vendermos todas as almas
Dos nossos índios num leilão

Que país é esse?
Que país é esse?
Que país é esse?

P.s: This song is from 1978. Has anything changed so far?

Não me convidaram
Pra esta festa pobre
Que os homens armaram
Pra me convencer
Apagar sem ver
Toda essa droga
Que já vem malhada
Antes de eu nascer...

Não me ofereceram
Nem um cigarro
Fiquei na porta
Estacionando os carros
Não me elegeram
Chefe de nada
O meu cartão de crédito
É uma navalha...

Brasil! Mostra tua cara
Quero ver quem paga
Prá gente ficar assim
Brasil! Qual é o teu negócio?
O nome do teu sócio?
Confia em mim...

Será que é o meu fim?
Ver TV a cores
Na taba de um índio
Programada
Pra só dizer "sim, sim"

Owl City - Vanilla Twilight

The stars lean down to kiss you
And I lie awake and miss you
Pour me a heavy dose of atmosphere
Cause I'll doze off safe and soundly
But I'll miss your arms around me
I'd send a postcard to you, dear
Cause I wish you were here

I'll watch the night turn light blue
But it's not the same without you
Because it takes two to whisper quietly
The silence isn't so bad
Till I look at my hands and feel sad
Cause the spaces between my fingers
Are right where yours fit perfectly

I'll find repose in new ways
Though I haven't slept in two days
Cause cold nostalgia chills me to the bone
But drenched in vanilla twilight
I'll sit on the front porch all night
Waist deep in thought because when
I think of you I don't feel so alone

I don't feel so alone
I don't feel so alone

As many times as I blink
I'll think of you tonight
(Tonight, tonight, tonight...)

I'll think of you tonight

When violet eyes get brighter
And heavy wings grow lighter
I'll taste the sky and feel alive again
And I'll forget the world that I knew
But I swear I won't forget you
Oh if my voice could reach back through the past
I'd whisper in your ear:
"Oh darling I wish you were here"

The way you move
Has got me yearning
The way you move
Has left me burning

I know you know what you're doing to me
I know my hands will never be free
I know what it's like to be in chains

The way you move
Is meant to haunt me
The way you move
To tempt and taunt me

I know you knew on the day you were born
I know somehow I should've been warned
I know I walk every midnight to dawn in chains

In chains, I'm in chains
In chains, I'm in chains

You've got me dying for you
It's you that I'm living through
You've got me praying to you
Saying to you anything you want me to

You've got me reaching for you
My soul's beseeching me too
You've got me singing to you
Bringing to you anything you ask me to

The way you move
Is mesmerizing
The way you move
Is hypnotizing

I know I crumble when you are around
Start to mumble a bit of a false sound
Straggle, stumble, shackled and bound in chains

In chains, I'm in chains
In chains, I'm in chains

You've got me dying for you
It's you that I'm living through
You've got me praying to you
Saying to you anything you want me to

You've got me reaching for you
My soul's beseeching me too
You've got me singing to you
Bringing to you anything you ask me to

The Rembrandts - I'll Be There For You

2010-07-20T11:54:00.003-03:00

So, no one told you life was going to be this way.
Your job's a joke, you're broke, your love life's D.O.A.
It's like you're always stuck in second gear.
Well, it hasn't been your day, your week, your month, or even your year. But,

I'll be there for you
when the rain starts to pour.
I'll be there for you
like I've been there before.
I'll be there for you
'cause you're there for me too.

You're still in bed at ten and work began at eight.
You've burned your breakfast, so far, things are going great.
Your mother warned you there'd be days like these.
But she didn't tell you when the world has brought you down to your knees,
that,

I'll be there for you
when the rain starts to pour.
I'll be there for you
like I've been there before.
I'll be there for you
'cause you're there for me too.

No one could ever know me, no one could ever see me.
Seems you're the only one who knows what it's like to be me.
Someone to face the day with, make it throught the rest with, someone I'll always laugh with.
Even at my worst, I'm best with you. Yeah!

It's like you're always stuck in second gear.
Well, it hasn't been your day, your week, your month, or even your year. But,

I'll be there for you
when the rain starts to pour.
I'll be there for you
like I've been there before.
I'll be there for you
'cause you're there for me too.

Barão Vermelho - Meus Bons Amigos

Meus bons amigos, onde estão
Notícias de todos quero saber
Cada um fez sua vida de forma diferente
Às vezes me pergunto: Malditos ou inocentes?

Nossos sonhos, realidades
Todas as vertigens, crueldades
Sobre nossos ombros aprendemos a carregar
Toda a vontade que faz vingar
No bem que fez pra mim
Assim, assim, me fez feliz, assim

O amor sem fim
Não esconde o medo
De ser completo e imperfeito

Meus bons amigos, onde estão
Notícias de todos quero saber
Sobre nossos ombros aprendemos a carregar
Toda a vontade que faz vingar

Chico Buarque - Meu Caro Amigo

2010-07-20T11:30:00.002-03:00

Meu caro amigo me perdoe, por favor
Se eu não lhe faço uma visita
Mas como agora apareceu um portador
Mando notícias nessa fita

Aqui na terra tão jogando futebol
Tem muito samba, muito choro e rock'n'roll
Uns dias chove, noutros dias bate sol

Mas o que eu quero é lhe dizer que a coisa aqui tá preta

Muita mutreta pra levar a situação
Que a gente vai levando de teimoso e de pirraça
E a gente vai tomando e também sem a cachaça
Ninguém segura esse rojão

Meu caro amigo eu não pretendo provocar
Nem atiçar suas saudades
Mas acontece que não posso me furtar
A lhe contar as novidades

Aqui na terra tão jogando futebol
Tem muito samba, muito choro e rock'n'roll
Uns dias chove, noutros dias bate sol

Mas o que eu quero é lhe dizer que a coisa aqui tá preta

É pirueta pra cavar o ganha-pão
Que a gente vai cavando só de birra, só de sarro
E a gente vai fumando que, também, sem um cigarro
Ninguém segura esse rojão

Meu caro amigo eu quis até telefonar
Mas a tarifa não tem graça
Eu ando aflito pra fazer você ficar
A par de tudo que se passa

Aqui na terra tão jogando futebol
Tem muito samba, muito choro e rock'n'roll
Uns dias chove, noutros dias bate sol

Mas o que eu quero é lhe dizer que a coisa aqui tá preta

Muita careta pra engolir a transação
E a gente tá engolindo cada sapo no caminho
E a gente vai se amando que, também, sem um carinho
Ninguém segura esse rojão

Meu caro amigo eu bem queria lhe escrever
Mas o correio andou arisco
Se me permitem, vou tentar lhe remeter
Notícias frescas nesse disco

Aqui na terra tão jogando futebol
Tem muito samba, muito choro e rock'n'roll
Uns dias chove, noutros dias bate sol

Mas o que eu quero é lhe dizer que a coisa aqui tá preta

A Marieta manda um beijo para os seus
Um beijo na família, na Cecília e nas crianças
O Francis aproveita pra também mandar lembranças
A todo o pessoal

I left the keys in the car
I left the door ajar
I didn't want to be alone

These are the days and the nights
At these sweet humbling heights
And I know it used to be home

Well whisk me away
I'll be yours for a day
In heavenly fields we can roam

Woah oh oh you're my clean white love
Woah oh oh you're my clean white love
What are you doing?
What are you doing?
What are you doing to me?
What are you doing to my head?
Woah oh oh you're my clean white love
Woah oh oh you're too clean white love
I gave my heart on the morning of November 6th
Oh everybody's looking for a fix

Sell me a sign
I'll cut the telephone line
Just to keep expectations alive

Oh you're bleeding me dry
But the feeling is blind
So I climbed up your looking device

Sell me it straight
Oh it might be too late
To keep on breaking the rules

Woah oh oh you're my clean white love
Woah oh oh you're my clean white love
What are you doing?
What are you doing?
What are you doing to me?
What are you doing to my head?
Woah oh oh you're my clean white love
Woah oh oh you're too clean white love
I gave my heart on the morning of November 6th
Oh everybody's looking for a fix

In this nervous disease
There's a cure I need
Let the medicine get to the bone

Remember this place
Leave it up to the fate
Is it true that it's kind to be cruel, cruel

Woah oh oh you're my clean white love
Woah oh oh you're too clean white love
What are you doing?
What are you doing?
What are you doing to me?
What are you doing to my head?

Woah oh oh you're my clean white love
Woah oh oh you're too clean white love
What are you doing?

What are you doing to me?

Woah oh oh you're my clean white love
Woah oh oh you're too clean white love

Gave my heart on the morning of November 6th
Now everybody's looking for a fix

You, you’re not telling the truth, you’re not telling the whole truth, don’t you know, I can see right through you,
Hide away, these hidden things, missing pieces, there’s a whole lot you won’t share.
You mystery, I’ve been mystified, I want in, I say these words but you won’t hear.

I know somewhere different, a place that’s just so simple, somewhere I can be me, and you can just be you,
We’ll live out in the open, no shade to hide our faces; we’ll take time, ‘cause I’m seeing you through

Scary dreams, I’ve dreamt my own, I’m still standing, stop pushing me away,
Your deepest black, the stains you hate, my reaching hands say, my reaching hands say

I know somewhere different, a place that’s just so simple, somewhere I can be me, and you can just be you,
We’ll live out in the open, no shade to hide our faces; we’ll take time, ‘cause I’m seeing you through

C c c come come come outside, everything you try to hide, disappears, there’s no fear, there’s no need to go inside, I I know know you’ve been told, you won’t be loved, but don’t withhold, you are enough, you are gold, you are golden, love.

Listen, would you really listen, ‘cause I’m not going anywhere.
Open, will you let me see in, ‘cause I’m not going anywhere.

There are many things that I would like to say to you
But I don't have the words in my head
Days are passing by and all the leaves are changing too
But time won't change the things unsaid

'Cause everything is different now
I'd really like to tell you how

How I wanted you here by my side
I know what I said but I lied
It looked like a laugh but I cried
Oh, I wish I could push rewind

Oh, stupid pride it just can't hide the holes inside my heart
'Cause I need you here with me
Oh, I wish that I could take it back, I'd go back to the start
And tell you all the things that I feel

'Cause everything is different now
I'd really like to tell you how

How I wanted you here by my side
I know what I said but I lied
It looked like a laugh but I cried
'Cause I wish I could push rewind

I saw you on the corner holding hands with someone new
Happy as a boy could be
Love was in your eyes and yeah she looked the same way too
It's funny that was almost me

Now I wanna be there by your side
I know what I said but I lied
I wanted to laugh but I cried
'Cause it's too late to push rewind

Oh no, oh no, no, no, no
No, no, no, no, no
I know what I said but I lied
Oh no, oh no, now I cried

Just too late, too late, too late, too late, too late
Oh no, it's just too late, too late, too late, too late

If you were a cowboy, I would trail you
If you were a piece of wood, I’d nail you to the floor
If you were a sailboat, I would sail you to the shore
If you were a river, I would swim you
If you were a house, I would live in you all my days
If you were a preacher, I’d begin to change my ways

Sometimes I believe in fate
but the chances we create
always seem to ring more true
you took a chance on loving me
I took a chance on loving you

If I was in jail I know you’d spring me
If I were a telephone you’d ring me all day long
If I was in pain I know you’d sing me soothing songs

Sometimes I believe in fate
but the chances we create
always seem to ring more true
you took a chance on loving me
I took a chance on loving you

If I was hungry you would feed me
if I was in darkness you would lead me to the light
If I was a book I know you’d read me every night

If you were a cowboy I would trail you
If you were a piece of wood I’d nail you to the floor
If you were a sailboat I would sail you to the shore
If you were a sailboat I would sail you to the shore

Starry Night by Vincent Van Gogh

Starry, starry night
Paint your palette blue and gray
Look out on a summer's day
With eyes that know the darkness in my soul
Shadows on the hills
Sketch the trees and the daffodils
Catch the breeze and the winter chills
In colors on the snowy linen land

Now I understand
What you tried to say to me
How you suffered for your sanity
How you tried to set them free
They would not listen they did not know how
Perhaps they'll listen now

Starry, starry night
Flaming flowers that brightly blaze
Swirling clouds in violet haze
Reflecting Vincent's eyes of China blue
Colors changing hue
Morning fields of amber grain
Weathered faces lined in pain
Are soothed beneath the artist's loving hands

Now I understand
What you tried to say to me
How you suffered for your sanity
How you tried to set them free
They would not listen they did not know how
Perhaps they'll listen now

For they could not love you
But still your love was true
And when no hope was left in sight
On that starry, starry night
You took your life as lovers often do
But I could have told you Vincent
This world was never meant for one as
beautiful as you

Starry, starry night
Portraits hung in empty halls
Frameless heads on nameless walls
With eyes that watch the world and can't forget
Like the strangers that you've met
The ragged men in ragged clothes
A silver thorn on a bloody rose
Lie crushed and broken on the virgin snow

Now I think I know
What you tried to say to me
How you suffered for your sanity
How you tried to set them free
They would not listen they're not listening still
Perhaps they never will

I know I said I loved you but I'm thinking I was wrong,
I'm the first to admit that I'm still pretty young,
and I never meant to hurt you when I wrote you ten love songs.
but a guy that I could never get 'cause his girlfriend was pretty fit
and everyone who knew her loved her so.
and I made you leave her for me and now I'm feeling pretty mean,
but my mind has fucked me over more times than any man could ever know.

Maybe I should give up, give in,
give up trying to be thin,
give up and turn into my mother,
god knows I love her.

and I'm sorry to which ever man should meet my sorry state,
watch my steady lonesome gait and beware.
I would never love a man 'cause love and pain go hand in hand
and I can't do it again.

So we stayed up late one night to try and get our problems right,
but I couldn't get into his head just what was going through my mind,
and I think he knew where I was going
he put Ryan Adams on
I think he thinks it makes me weak
it only ever makes me strong.
I've got this friend who sounds just like him,
now he's the man I'd leave you for, the man that I just adore like you.
The same man, he turns to me he said 'I've got to tell you how I feel,
if god could make the perfect girl for me it would be you
and my god told me not tell about how much do you love your fella?"
I don't know more everyday
not in this new romantic way.

I'll always be your first love, you'll always be my first love.

but I'm sorry to which ever man should meet my sorry state
watch my steady lonesome gait and beware,
I would never love a man 'cause love and pain go hand in hand
And I can't do it, again
I would never love a man cause I could never hurt a man, not in this very new romantic
way.

Train - Drops Of Jupiter

Credits: closetgroupie

[Cover version by Boyce Avenue]

Now that she's back in the atmosphere
With drops of jupiter in her hair
She acts like summer and walks like rain
Reminds me that there's a time to change
Since the return of her stay on the moon
She listens like spring and she talks like june

But tell me did you sail across the sun
Did you make it to the milky way
To see the lights all faded
And that heaven is overrated
Tell me did you fall from a shooting star
One without a permanent scar
And did you miss me
While you were looking for yourself out there.

Now that she's back from that soul vacation
Tracing her way through the constellation
She checks out mozart while she does tae-bo
Reminds me that there's room to grow
Now that she's back in the atmosphere
I'm afraid that she might think of me as
Plain ol jane told a story about a man
Who was too afraid to fly so he never did land

Tell me did the wind sweep you off your feet
Did you finally get the chance to dance along the light of day
And head back to the milky way
And tell me did venus blow your mind
Was it everything you wanted to find
And did you miss me
While you were looking for yourself out there

Can you imagine, no love, pride, deep fried chicken
Your best friend always stickin up for you
(even when I know you're wrong)?
Can you imagine no first dance
Freeze dried romance
5 hour phone conversation
The best soya latte` that you ever had and...me?

But tell me did the wind sweep you off your feet?
Did you finally get the chance to dance along the light of day
And head back toward the milky way?
Tell me did you sail across the sun?
Did you make it to the milky way to see the lights all faded
And that heaven is overrated?
Tell me did you fall for a shooting star,
One without a permanent scar?
And did you miss me while you were looking for yourself
Nanananananananananananana

And did you finally get the chance to dance along the light of day?
Nanananananananananananana

And did you fall for a shooting star?
Fall for a shooting star?

Nanananananananananananana
And are you lonely looking for yourself out there?

I sit alone
In a dark theatre,
Watching the people go by,
Hand in hand,
Everyone but me.
Oh....

I stay behind,
Watching the credits roll by
Roll, roll, roll, right right by me.

I know,
I won't cry,
Because there is somebody, somebody, somebody,
Waiting for me out in the rain.
Won't cry, not tonight,
Because there is somebody waiting for me.
Oooooh ya....

I take a walk,
The streets are busy tonight,
And I am searching for you,
Waiting to brush your shoulder.
But I'm alone,
I watch the faces roll, roll, roll, right by me.

I know,
I won't cry,
Because there is somebody, somebody, somebody,
Waiting for me out in the rain.
Won't cry, not tonight,
Because there is somebody waiting for me.
Oooooh ya....

How many words will go unspoken?
You're not knocking upon my door.
You talk, my heart's not broken
But tonight I am going home,
I won't cry anymore.

I lie awake, I leave the porch light on,
I hope it helps you find your way.
Outside, I hear the thunder roll by.

I know,
I won't cry,
Because there is somebody, somebody, somebody,
Waiting for me out in the rain.
Won't cry, not tonight,
Because there is somebody waiting for me.
Oooooh ya....

Not going to cry tonight.
No, no, no, no!
Oh ya,
Not going to cry,
Not tonight,
There is somebody waiting for me.

I stay behind, watching the credits roll by,
Roll, roll, roll right by me.

Tristan Prettyman - Love Love Love

2010-06-08T14:23:00.004-03:00

It’s 4 am
The paperboy’s at it again
But I can’t get no sleep
I mean what’s the point?
If I can’t even dream up a dream
That’s worth the keep

And so there’s no need in even going
Cause I’m better off never knowing
You know the media’s getting
Really good at lying
And this time around
I’m not buying

Cause this life is a beautiful one
And though I seen it comin undone
I know most definitely
That it’s gonna be you
It’s gonna be me
So baby keep your head up
Keep it on the up and up
Cause you got all my…
Love love love

Cause we’re all just lovers and takers
Breaking hearts to make the papers
She wants love I told her to stop trying
Cause the reasons for her tears
Aren’t worth crying

And this life is a beautiful one
And though I seen it comin undone
Well I know most definitely
That it’s gonna be you
It’s gonna be me
So baby keep your head up
Keep it on the up and up
Cause you got all my
Love love love

Loving all around me
I think that love has found me
Loving all the time

And when the summer’s here
The waves are crashing
No time for thinking
Don’t even ask me
I’m gonna let it all roll right past me
Cause when I’m here
I’m always happy

And this life is a beautiful one
And though I seen it comin undone
Well I know most definitely
It always works out the way it’s meant to be
So baby keep your head up
Keep it on the up and up
And know that you got all my
Love love love

She woke from a dream
Her head was on fire
Why was he so nervous?
He took her to the park
She crossed her arms and
lowered her eye lids

Someday somebody's gonna ask you
A question that you should say yes to
once in your life
Maybe tonight
I’ve got a question for you

She'd had no idea
started to cry
she said in a good way
he took her by the hand
walked her back home
they took the long way

someday somebody's gonna ask you
a question that you should say yes to
once in your life
maybe tonight
I’ve got a question for you

There is no combination of words I could put on the back of a postcard
And no song that I could sing, but I can try for your heart
Our dreams, and they are made out of real things
Like a shoebox of photographs with sepia tone loving

Love is the answer
At least for most of the questions in my heart
Why are we here and where do we go
And how come it's so hard
It's not always easy and sometimes life can be deceiving
I'll tell you one thing
It's always better when we're together

Mmm, it's always better when we're together
Yeah, we'll look at the stars when we're together
Well, it's always better when we're together
Yeah, it's always better when we're together

And all of these moments just might find a way into my dreams tonight
But I know that they'll be gone when the morning light sings
Or brings new things for tomorrow night you see
That they'll be gone too, too many things I have to do
But if all of these dreams might find their way into my day to day scene
I'd be under the impression I was somewhere in between
With only two, just me and you, not so many things we got to do
Or places we got to be, we'll sit beneath the mango tree now

Yeah, it's always when we're together
Mmm, we're somewhere in between together
Well, it's always better when we're together
Yeah, it's always better when we're together (mmm...)

I believe in memories, they look so, so pretty when I sleep
And when I wake up, you look so pretty sleeping next to me
But there is not enough time
And there is no, no song I could sing
And there is no combination of words I could say
But I will still tell you one thing
We're better together

You're never with me
You're never near me
What time is it?
What time?
Whose time is this?
Give yourself a chance to breathe
I'll give you the room you need
You're never here
You're never near here
What day is this?
What day?
Whose day is this?
Put me in your supermarket list
I'm here, I'm real, it's true, I do exist
Today you may feel a little sleepy
Maybe the morning is too soon
I guess I'll have to borrow
One of your sunny afternoons
But afternoons they never come
There's nothing left for me to borrow
I guess I'll try again tomorrow
I guess I'll try again tomorrow
I guess I'll try again tomorrow
I guess I'll try again tomorrow

You're wasting me
You're breaking, you're wasting me
Can this be love?
Is this?
Whose love is this? What is wrong with you?
I don't know
No place in you for me
And me, I need you so
And if you want to be by yourself
No one disturbing, that's alright
I guess I'll have to borrow
A little of yourself tonight
But tonight it never comes
There's nothing left for me to borrow
I guess I'll try again tomorrow
I guess I'll try again tomorrow
I guess I'll try again tomorrow
I guess I'll try again tomorrow

It may seem a little hollow
But I'll try again tomorrow

There's nothing left for me to borrow

As far as I can see
it's too much
Freedom for me
That's the way you like it
If she's so happy to be
It's never enought for me
And that's the way I like it

You taste hunility
without a referee
That's the way they like it

No commodities
not even a cup of tea
That's the way they like it
Keep on feeling better
love be pleased and stay

really doesn't matter
wake me up today

The particles I breathe
The remedy I never need
That's the way you like it

The scent of modesty
The judge that
walks in peace
That's the way
they like it

Keep on feeling better
love be pleased and stay

really doesn't matter
wake me up today

Not even when
I run on pride
I'll change
and rearrange
my kind

Not even when
I run on pride
I'll change

No Doubt - Ex-girlfriend

I kinda always knew I'd end up your ex-girlfriend
I kinda always knew I'd end up your ex-girlfriend
I kinda always knew I'd end up your ex-girlfriend
I hope I hold a special place with the rest of them
And you know it makes me sick to be on that list
But I should have thought of that before we kissed

You say you're gonna burn before you mellow
I will be the one to burn you
Why'd you have to go and pick me?
When you knew that we were different, completely

I kinda always knew I'd end up your ex-girlfriend
I kinda always knew I'd end up your ex-girlfriend
I hope I hold a special place with the rest of them
I kinda always knew I'd end up your ex-girlfriend

I'm another ex-girlfriend on your list
But I should have thought of that before we kissed

Your wildness scares me
So does your freedom
You say you can't stand the restrictions
I find myself trying to change you
If you were meant to be my lover I wouldn't have to

And I feel so mean, I feel in between
'Cause I'm about to give you away

I kinda always knew I'd end up your ex-girlfriend (for someone else to take)
I kinda always knew I'd end up your ex-girlfriend (am I making a mistake?)
I hope I hold a special place with the rest of them (all the time that we wasted)
I kinda always knew I'd end up your ex-girl, friend

I'm another ex-girlfriend on your list
But I should have thought of that before we kissed
I'm another ex-girlfriend on your list
But I should have thought of that before we kissed

I'm about to give you away for someone else to take
I'm about to give you away for someone else to take

We keep repeating mistakes for souvenirs
And we've been in between the days for years
And I know that when I see you I'm going to die
I know I'm going to want you and you know why
It's going to kill me to see you with the next girl
'Cause I'm the most gorgeously jealous kind of ex-girl

But I should have thought of that before we kissed...

I kinda always knew I'd end up your ex-girlfriend
I kinda always knew I'd end up your ex-girlfriend
I hope I hold a special place with the rest of them

Looks like you ain't done nothing

'Bout an hour ago
Behind the glass at a peep show
I got nervous 'cause I don't know
Can she see me behind that window?

It's almost nine and I'm back in line
I can't get the girl with the Spanish tears
Out of my mind
I've got to make her mine, all mine
But somethin' is wrong
She don't belong
She oughta be back where she's from
Maybe back home is Mexico City
Man, I don't know her
But she sure is pretty

But God don't make lonely girls
Sure didn't want 'em in His world
God don't make lonely girls
Yeah, yeah, doo doo doo doo

Now when I make that girl all mine
I'm gonna stand by her
Once I get inside of
Her barbed wire
Once I get inside
I bet she'd look good in a brand new dress
She never felt good in her fish net
She's got to be this towns best mess
But it ain't nothin' that her face would suggest

But God don't make lonely girls
Sure didn't want 'em in His world
God don't make lonely girls
Yeah, yeah, doo doo doo doo

I gotta make her see
I'm a guarantee
Oh, if she'd only come along with me
Well I can make her see
Gonna take a walk right through these walls
'Cause she's comin' home with me
I ain't even gonna touch her at all
Man, I'm only gonna lay awake and watch her sleep

But God don't make lonely girls
Sure didn't want 'em in His world

Kiss me out of the bearded barley.
Nightly, beside the green, green grass.
Swing, swing, swing the spinning step.
You wear those shoes and I will wear that dress.

Oh, kiss me beneath the milky twilight.
Lead me out on the moonlit floor.
Lift your open hand.
Strike up the band and make the fireflies dance,
Silver moon's sparkling.
So kiss me.

Kiss me down by the broken tree house.
Swing me upon its hanging tire.
Bring, bring, bring your flowered hat.
We'll take the trail marked on your father's map.

Oh, kiss me beneath the milky twilight.
Lead me out on the moonlit floor.
Lift your open hand.
Strike up the band and make the fireflies dance,
Silver moon's sparkling.
So kiss me

Oh, kiss me beneath the milky twilight.

While everybody else is getting out of bed
I'm usually getting in it
I'm not in it to win it
And there's a thousand ways you can skin it

My feet have been on the floor
Flat like an idle singer
Remember winger
I digress
I confess you are the best thing in my life

But I'm afraid when I hear stories
About a husband and wife
There's no happy endings
No Henry Lee
But you are the greatest thing about me

If it's love
And we decide that it's forever
No one else could do it better
If it's love
And we're two birds of a feather
Then the rest is just whenever
And if I'm addicted to loving you
And you're addicted to my love too
We can be them two birds of a feather
That flock together
Love, love
Got to have something to keep us together
Love, Love
That's enough for me

Took a loan on a house I own
Can't be a queen bee without a bee throne
I wanna buy ya everything
Except cologne
'cause it's poison
We can travel to Spain where the rain falls
Mainly on the plain side and sing
'cause it is we can laugh we can sing
Have ten kids and give them everything
Hold our cell phones up in the air
And just be glad we made it here alive
On a spinning ball in the middle of space
I love you from your toes to your face

If it's love
And we decide that it's forever
No one else could do it better
If it's love
And we're two birds of a feather
Then the rest is just whenever
And if I'm addicted to loving you
And you're addicted to my love too
We can be them two birds of a feather
That flock together
Love, love
Got to have something to keep us together
Love, Love
That's enough for me

You can move in
I won't ask where you've been
'cause everybody has a past
When we're older
We'll do it all over again

When everybody else is getting out of bed
I'm usually getting in it
I'm not in it to win it
I'm in it for you

If it's love
And we're two birds of a feather
Then the rest is just whenever
Then the rest is just whenever

If it's love
And we decide that it's forever
No one else could do it better
And if I'm addicted to loving you

I'm just a girl
With good intentions
I don't cry to get attention
Most of the time

I'm just a girl
I do some damage
I use my gender, to my advantage
Is this a crime?
If there is a time, I have a need and alibi
I don't have to try, it's built in
It comes with the package ahhhhhh
Along with sugar and spice and everything nice
The power I posses to entice
It's built in
It comes with the package ahhhhhhh

That's why I love being a teenage girl
Feeling confined where I fit in the world
I'm in bloom, I'm in bloom
And if ever I'm caught doing what I should not
They'll assume, I'm an innocent girl

I'm just a girl
I keep my promise
I won't bite
Completely harmless, most of the time

I'm just a girl
My wrath is tender
Bat my eyes
In the surrender
Is this a crime?
If there is a time I have a need and alibi
I don't have to try, it's built in
It comes with the package ahhhhhhhh
Along with sugar and spice and everything nice
The power I posses to entice
It's built in, it comes with the package ahhhhhh

Feeling confined where I fit in the world

And I'm trying to please to the calling
Of your heart-strings that play soft and low
And all the night's magic seems to whisper and hush
And all the soft moonlight seems to shine in your blush

Can I just have one more Moondance with you, my love
Can I just make some more romance with you, my love

Well, I wanna make love to you tonight
I can't wait 'til the morning has come
And I know that the time is just right
And straight into my arms you will run
And when you come my heart will be waiting
To make sure that you're never alone
There and then all my dreams will come true, dear
There and then I will make you my own
Any time I touch you, you just tremble inside
And I know how much you want me that you can't hide

Can I just make some more romance with you, my love

Well, I wanna make love to you tonight

When you're dreaming with a broken heart
The waking up is the hardest part
You roll outta bed and down on your knees
And for the moment you can hardly breathe
Wondering was she really here?
Is she standing in my room?
No she's not, 'cause she's gone, gone, gone, gone, gone....

When you're dreaming with a broken heart
The giving up is the hardest part
She takes you in with your crying eyes
Then all at once you have to say goodbye
Wondering could you stay my love?
Will you wake up by my side?
No she can't, 'cause she's gone, gone, gone, gone, gone....

Oooooooooohhhhhhhhh

Now do I have to fall asleep with roses in my hand?
Do I have to fall asleep with roses in my hand?
Do I have to fall asleep with roses in my hand?
Do I have to fall asleep with roses in my hand?
Baby won't you get them if I did?
No you won't, 'cause you're gone, gone, gone, gone, gone....

When you're dreaming with a broken heart
The waking up is the hardest part

The dawn is breaking
A light shining through
You're barely waking
And I'm tangled up in you
Yeah

But I'm open, you're closed
Where I follow, you'll go
I worry I won't see your face
Light up again

Even the best fall down sometimes
Even the wrong words seem to rhyme
Out of the doubt that fills my mind
I somehow find, you and I collide

I'm quiet, you know
You make a first impression
I've found I'm scared to know
I'm always on your mind

Even the best fall down sometimes
Even the stars refuse to shine
Out of the back you fall in time
You somehow find, you and I collide

Don't stop here
I've lost my place
I'm close behind

Even the best fall down sometimes
Even the wrong words seem to rhyme
Out of the doubt that fills your mind
You finally find, you and I collide

You finally find
You and I collide
You finally find
You and I collide

I'm on fire and nothing's gonna hold me back
Endless blue sky and a pocket full of tricks to try
You pick a colour and I'll sing it for you
I know you feel the same way
Say, say, say you feel the same way.

Fingertips alive - superhuman touch
Can't get enough of this electric love
Burning the sun with just a wave of your hand
Sparks flying out in every direction
There's more of this to come I think it must be heaven
Burning the sun with just a wave of your hand

I'm on fire, golden echoes upon my face
Tell those dreamers
They can dream up all they like in this place
You pick a colour and I'll sing it for you
I know you feel the same way
Say, say, say you feel the same way.

Fingertips alive - superhuman touch
Can't get enough of this electric love
Burning the sun with just a wave of your hand
Sparks flying out in every direction
There's more of this to come I think it must be heaven
Burning the sun with just a wave of your hand

Just one day like this will keep me going on
Tender kisses will keep me going on

Fingertips alive - superhuman touch
Can't get enough of this electric love
Burning the sun with just a wave of your hand
Sparks flying out in every direction
There's more of this to come I think it must be heaven
Burning the sun with just a wave of your hand

Seems like heaven's broken loose
It couldn't be more beautiful
I just want to burn the sun with you
A messed up garden to inspire
The greatest minds in all their power
I just want to burn the sun with you
In just a wave of your hand.

You pull me down to the floor of our apartment
A little while later we are laughing at our carpet burns
I like the way that it glows outside as the room gets darker
How I wish we could stay like this while the rest of the world turns

There has never been a time when I didn’t want to be your boyfriend
There has never been a time when I didn’t want to know your name
Free falling from a work in progress
Free falling from a life on hold
There has never been a time when I didn’t want you

Yeah my good lover is my one good thing these days
You help me keep it all from slipping away
I swear I’m gonna marry you someday

I’m all alone and I feel like all I do is wait
Yeah we spend hours on the phone but it’s never the same
Nothing good ever does come easy
Nothing good ever comes without a fight
I’m all alone and I wish I was home with you tonight

Yes my good lover is my one good thing these days
She helps me keep it all from slipping away
I swear I’m gonna marry you someday
Yeah my girlfriend is like magic in my hand
When I lose my sparkle she’s the only one that understands
I know I’m gonna marry you someday
I swear I’m gonna marry you someday
Someday, someday, someday

Travis - Flowers In The Window

Credits: *klairy

When I first held you I was cold
A melting snowman I was told
That there was no one there to hold
Before, I swore,
That I would be alone forever more

Oh, wow, look at you now
Flowers in the window
It's such a lovely day
And I'm glad you feel the same
Is there love out in the clouds
You are one in a million
And I love you so
Let's watch the flowers grow

There is no reason to feel bad
But there are many seasons to feel glad, sad, mad
It's just a bunch of feelings that we have to hold
And I am here to help you with the load

Oh, wow, look at you now
Flowers in the window
It's such a lovely day
And I'm glad you feel the same
Is there love out in the clouds
You are one in a million
And I love you so
Let's watch the flowers grow

So now we're here and now is fine
So far away from there and there is time, time, time
To plant new seeds and watch them grow
So there'll be flowers in the window when we go

Oh, wow, look at you now
Flowers in the window
It's such a lovely day
And I'm glad you feel the same
Is there love out in the clouds
You are one in a million
And I love you so
Let's watch the flowers grow
Oh, wow, look at you now
Flowers in the window
It's such a lovely day
And I'm glad you feel the same
Is there love out in the clouds
You are one in a million
And I love you so
Let's watch the flowers grow

Let's watch the flowers grow

Jamie Cullum - Twentysomething

2010-04-26T23:12:00.003-03:00

Credits: housemaedchen

After years of expensive education
A car full of books, and anticipation
I'm an expert on Shakespeare, and that's a hell of a lot
But the world don't need scholars as much as I thought

Maybe I'll go traveling for a year,
Finding myself, or start a career
I could work with the poor, though I'm hungry for fame
We all seem so different, but we're just the same

Maybe I'll go to the gym, so I don't get fat
All things are easy, with a tight six-pack
Who knows the answers, who do you trust
I can't even separate love from lust

Maybe I'll move back home, and pay off my loans,
Working nine to five, answering phones
Don't make me live for my Friday nights,
Drinking eight pints and getting in fights

(Solo)

I don't want to get up, just let me lie in
Leave me alone, I'm a twentysomething

Maybe I'll just fall in love, that could solve it all,
Philosophers say that that's enough
There surely must be more, ooh

Love ain't the answer, nor is work,
The truth deludes me, so much it hurts,
But I'm still having fun and I guess that the key,
I'm a twentysomething and I'll keep bein' me

I'm a twentysomething, let me lie in,
Leave me alone, I'm a twentysomething

Foo Fighters - Walk After You

2010-04-26T22:59:00.003-03:00

Tonight I'm tangled in my blanket of clouds
Dreaming aloud
Things just won't do without you, matter of fact
I'm on your back, I'm on your back, I'm on your back

If you walk out on me, I'm walking after you
If you walk out on me, I'm walking after you

If you'd accept surrender, give up some more
Weren't you adored
I cannot be without you, matter of fact
Ooh I'm on your back I'm on your back
Ooh I'm on your back

If you walk out on me, I'm walking after you
If you walk out on me, I'm walking after you

Another heart is cracked in two, I'm on your back Ooh

I cannot be without you, matter of fact
Ooh I'm on your back

If you walk out on me, I'm walking after you
If you walk out on me, I'm walking after you
If you walk out on me, I'm walking after you

Another heart is cracked in two, I'm on your back Ooh

Kings Of Leon - Use Somebody

Credits: aureliasdreams

I've been roaming around
Always looking down at all I see
Painted faces, fill the places I can't reach

You know that I could use somebody
You know that I could use somebody

Someone like you, And all you know, And how you speak
Countless lovers under cover of the street

You know that I could use somebody
You know that I could use somebody
Someone like you

Off in the night, while you live it up, I'm off to sleep
Waging wars to shape the poet and the beat
I hope it's gonna make you notice
I hope it's gonna make you notice

Someone like me
Someone like me
Someone like me, somebody

Someone like you, somebody
Someone like you, somebody
Someone like you, somebody

I've been roaming around,
Always looking down at all I see

Ingram Hill - She Wants To Be Alone

Credits: Nameless-482

She don't believe in anything
Never in love with those who love her
Ticking time bomb inside
She carries the weight of broken dreams
Carefully hiding everything from her heart
Doesn't know what she's missing

She wants to be alone
She wants to change her whole way of life
She wants to be alone
And there's no way around
She said she doesn't need me
And she doesn't need anyone

Sellin' the girl you never see
Falling apart to the sound of nothing
Well she likes it that way
Waiting around patiently
Hoping to be the one she needs
But she's running away
Turning away
She won't stay

She wants to be alone
She wants to change her whole way of life
She wants to be alone
And there's no way around
She said she doesn't need me
And she doesn't need anyone

Keep me in mind
I will be on call all the time
'Cause I want you more than anyone

She wants to be alone
She wants to change her whole way of life
She wants to be alone
And there's no way around
She said that she doesn't need me

She wants to be alone
She wants to change her whole way of life
She wants to be alone
And there's no way around
She said she doesn't need me
And she doesn't need anyone

She doesn't need anyone

Caetano Veloso - Livros

Credits: GiveInToLOVE

Tropeçavas nos astros desastrada
Quase não tínhamos livros em casa
E a cidade não tinha livraria
Mas os livros que em nossa vida entraram
São como a radiação de um corpo negro
Apontando pra a expansão do Universo
Porque a frase, o conceito, o enredo, o verso
(E, sem dúvida, sobretudo o verso)
É o que pode lançar mundos no mundo.

Tropeçavas nos astros desastrada
Sem saber que a ventura e a desventura
Dessa estrada que vai do nada ao nada
São livros e o luar contra a cultura.

Os livros são objetos transcendentes
Mas podemos amá-los do amor táctil
Que votamos aos maços de cigarro
Domá-los, cultivá-los em aquários,
Em estantes, gaiolas, em fogueiras
Ou lançá-los pra fora das janelas
(Talvez isso nos livre de lançarmo-nos)
Ou o que é muito pior por odiarmo-los
Podemos simplesmente escrever um:

Encher de vãs palavras muitas páginas
E de mais confusão as prateleiras.
Tropeçavas nos astros desastrada
Mas pra mim foste a estrela entre as estrelas.

Aqualung - Something To Believe In

Credits: =ankkutza

You talk too much.
Maybe that's your way
Of breaking up the silence
That fills you up.
But it doesn't sound the same
When no one's really listening
We stumble into our lives:
Reach for a hand to hold.
And any wonder
We need to find
A certain something, certain.

Turn out the light
And what are you left with?
Open up my hands
And find out they're empty.
Press my face to the ground
I've gotta find a reason.
Just scratching around
For something to believe in:
Something to believe in.

You have too much.
You're spending all your time
Collecting and discovering
It's not enough.
And no matter how you try,
You never find the one you want.
We stumble into our lives:
Without a hand to hold.
And any wonder
We need to find
A certain something, certain.

Turn out the light
And what are you left with?
Open up my hands
And find out they're empty.
Press my face to the ground
I've gotta find a reason.
Still scratching around
For something to believe in:
Something to believe in.

C'mon, c'mon [repeats til end]

Death Cab For Cutie - The New Year

2010-01-13T23:53:00.004-02:00

So this is the New Year.
And I don't feel any different.
The clanking of crystal
Explosions off in the distance (in the distance).

So this is the New Year
And I have no resolutions
For self assigned penance
For problems with easy solutions

So everybody put your best suit or dress on
Let's make believe that we are wealthy for just this once
Lighting firecrackers off on the front lawn
As thirty dialogues bleed into one

I wish the world was flat like the old days
Then I could travel just by folding a map
No more airplanes, or speed trains, or freeways
There'd be no distance that can hold us back.

There'd be no distance that could hold us back
There'd be no distance that could hold us back

So this is the New Year
So this is the New Year
So this is the New Year
So this is the New Year

Soko - I'll Kill Her

So of course, you were supposed to call me tonight
You were supposed to call me tonight
We would have gone to the cinema
And after to the restaurant
The one you like in your street

We would have slept together
Have a nice breakfast together
And a walk in a park together
How beautiful is that ?

You would have said "I love you,"
In the cutest place on earth
Where some lullabies are dancing with the fairies

I would have waited like a week or two
But you never tried to reach me, no
You never called me back

You were dating that bitch blond girl
If I find her, I swear, I swear

I'll kill her, I'll kill her
She stole my future, she broke my dream
I'll kill her, I'll kill her
She stole my future when she took you away

I would have met your friends
We would have had a drink or two
They would have liked me cause
Sometimes I'm funny
I would have met your dad
I would have met your mum
she would have said
"Please, can you make some beautiful babies ?"
So we would have had a boy called Tom, and a girl called Susan
Born in Japan

I thought it was a love story
But you don't want to get involved
I thought it was a love story
But you're not ready for that
Me neither

I'll kill her
She stole my future, she broke my dream
I'll kill her, I'll kill her
She stole my future when she took you away

She's a bitch you know, all she's got is blondness
Not even tenderness, yeah she's *clever...less
She'll dump your ass for a model called Brandon
He will pay for a beautiful surgery, cause he's full of money

I would have waited like a week or two
But you never tried to reach me, no
You never called me back

You were dating that bitch blond girl
And if I find her, I swear, you know, I swear [I swear]

I'll kill her, I'll kill her | |
She stole my future, she broke my dream | |
I'll kill her, I'll kill her | x2 |
She stole my future when she took you away | |

*Man I told you, you know
If I find her, I'll really -- I'm ...
I'll kill her for real
That's for sure
You have to know
I mean, er, you know
I can do it
Man...
I'll kill her.

Dave Matthews Band - Satellite

Satellite in my eyes
Like a diamond in the sky
How I wonder
Satellite strung from the moon
And the world your balloon
Peeping Tom for the mother station

Winter's cold spring erases
And the calm away by the storm is chasen
Everything good needs replacing
Look up, look down, all around, hey satellite

Satellite headlines read
Someone's secrets you've seen
Eyes and ears have been
Satellite dish in my yard
Tell me more, tell me more
Who's the king of your Satellite Castle?

Winter's cold spring erases
And the calm away by the storm is chasen
Everything good needs replacing
Look up, look down, all around, hey satellite
Rest high above the clouds no restriction
Television we bounce round the world
And while I spend these hours
Five senses reeling
I laugh about the weatherman's satellite eyes

Satellite in my eyes
Like a diamond in the sky
How I wonder
Satellite strung from the moon
And the world your balloon
Peeping Tom for the mother station

Winter's cold spring erases
And the calm away by the storm is chasen
Everything good needs replacing
Look up, look down, all around, hey satellite

Rest high above the clouds no restriction
Television we bounce round the world
And while I spend these hours
Five senses reeling
I laugh about the weatherman's satellite eyes

Sondre Lerche - Single-Hand Affairs

2009-11-30T01:44:00.003-02:00

Credits: the-great-collapse

How would you like to be a part of something new?
Some fall in love practically every day
How does it feel when you've made the whole round by yourself?
It must be a drag

How could it be you are someone they omit?
Some sleep around, some alone with warmth and wit
How could it be you are there the day before they arrive
and when they leave?

It's not what you do
' Cause nothing relies on you
People in the back move slow
We should have come home in pairs
Instead we have single-hand affairs

How do you cope with the everlasting thoughts?
Share your life you can't have a thought alone
If you object.well, I know the pressure from before
I understand

It's not what you do
' Cause nothing relies on you
People in the back move slow
We should have come home in pairs
Instead we have single-hand affairs

You're not complete till you pair with someone else
But what does that help
if you haven't found yourself?
Some try to hide to replace what isn't by their side
Stand for your rights!

It's not your fault
' Cause nothing relies on you
People in the back move slow
We should have come home in pairs
Instead we have single-hand affairs

You got a lot of tenderness
And so much love, you can get no rest
If you're willing
To waste a little time

I don't want all of it
All I need is a little bit

You got a lot of money saved
No use takin' it all to your grave
Ain't worth nothin'
If you ain't feelin' fine

I don't want all of it
All I need is a little bit

You know daddy gave you everything
On a silver platter
But the one thing he never gave you
Was the one thing that really matters

So if you feel unsatisfied
Somethin' missin' deep down inside
You had so many lovers
But you never really tried

I don't want all of it
All I need is a little bit

I'm tellin' you now it's gettin' dark
It's gettin' late
Now that we all need someone
To sit down and set us free

You got gold to give and time to pray
You think livin' right is livin' your way
But there's heaven down here, baby
We can find it if we try

I don't want all of it
All I need is a little bit
I don't want all of it
All I need is a little bit

I don't love anyone
You're not listening
You're playing with something
You're playing with yourself

I don't love anyone
You're not listening even now
You're playing with something

And if there's one thing that I learned when I was still a child
It's to take a hiding

I don't love anything
Not even Christmas
Especially not that
I don't love anything

No, I don't love anyone
Maybe my sister
Maybe my baby brother too, yeah
I don't love anyone

But if there's one thing that I learned when I was still a child

Yeah if there's one thing that I learned when I was still at school
It's to be alone

But if there's one thing that I learned when I was still a child
It's to take a hiding

Out in the street today
The kids are playing, having fun
I pass them by I'm not a kid, no
I don't love anyone

I met a man today
He told me something pretty strange
There's always somebody saying something
He said, "The world is as soft as lace."

But I don't love anyone
