Lyrics!

[static anonymity]

Water broken voice, saturates a microphone
into a reciever with no tongue
offering, little what it knows

Then a silence so heavy, broken hearts fall from throats
when heaven is remembered but never seen
through hearts shaped like kaleidoscopes

Eternaly, the sun has set to mourning
and contoured are the backrounds
on the canvas to which our lives are painted

[Graham]

Where were you when I was burned and broken
While the days slipped by from my window watching
Where were you when I was hurt and helpless
Because the things you say and the things you do surround me
While you were hanging yourself on someone else's words
Dying to believe in what you heard
I was staring straight into the shining sun

Lost in thought and lost in time
While the seeds of lifeand the seeds of change were planted
Outside the rain fell dark and slow
While I pondered on this dangerous but irresistible pastime
I took a heavenly ride through our silence
I knew the moment had arrived
For killing the past and coming back to life

I took a heavenly ride through our silence
I knew the waiting had begun
And headed straight..into the shining sun

This could be about 2 different people...yes, it's relevant.

[Graham]

Stay with me
You're the one I need
You make the hardest things
Seem easy

Keep my heart
Somewhere drugs don't go
Where the sunshine slows
Always keep me close

If only you could see
The stranger next to me
You promise you promise that you're done
But i cant tell you from the drugs

Don't let go
Well dig a great big hole
Down an endless hole
We'll both go

You're so blind!
You can't save me this time
Hope comes from inside
And I feel so low tonight

If only you could see
The stranger next to me
You promise you promise that you're done
But I can't tell you from the drugs

I wish you could see
This face in front of me
You're sorry you swear it you're done
But I can't tell you from the drugs

(Ohhhh)
(Ohhhh)

(take me) I need your help
(so far away) To pull me up take the wheel
(take me) Out from me
(so far away) Out from me

(Take me) If only you could see (I need your help)
(So far away) The stranger next to me (To pull me up take the pain)
(Take me) You promise you promise that you're done (Out from me)
(So far away) But I can't tell you from the drugs (Out from me)

(Take me) I wish that you could see (I need your help)
(So far away) This face in front of me (To pull me up take the wheel)
(Take me) You're sorry you swear it you're done (Out from me)
(So far away) But I can't tell you from the drugs (Out from me)

Keep my heart
somewhere drugs don't go
Where the sunshine slows
always keep me close

[Graham]

My mind's spinning like a spinner
I can't breathe the air's getting thinner
I've been running with my laces tied
I'm running out of places to hide
It's getting closer my pace is slowing
It's not the doing it's the knowing
It's getting closer my pace is slowing
It's not the doing it's the knowing
It's called paranoia
It's called paranoia
It's called fear
A void a black hole
A blank space I hate to know
The bubble burst the sun blocked out
All my constants turned to doubt

[Graham]

Something changed in your eyes
I don’t recognise you
I read something in your face
Now I can’t find you
You can’t fight anymore
Forgot what you’re fighting for
Something new is on your plate
But you can’t quite communicate
You’re falling down
You’re gonna lose that crown
Rest your head into your hands
I know how much it hurts I have felt the same
Close your eyes but not for too long
You might miss the life you’ve been missing out on
Hold my hand I am with you
Don’t be afraid to cry I will hold you
Look up to the sun let yourself breathe
I’ll carry you when you fall to your knees
When you fall I’ll carry you

Feck yes, how fitting?! They stole my head contents...

Thirteen Senses - thru the glass

I wanna take a walk, rain cloud, coat on
And the wind is blowing from the south
I wanna climb a rock from bottom to top
And nothing's getting left behind

I wanna hear your voice call me, call out loud
When you talk to me I’ll hear you out
I wanna space it out, too close, move on out
It’s all around for you to see
Yeah, it’s all I wanna see
But there’s such a lot of baggage

You got us into this, so get us out of this
Get us out of this, get us out of
You got us into this, so get us out of this
Get us out of this, get us out

Oh, get us out of this
Oh, get us out of this
Oh, get us out of

I wanna lose control, look down, scream out loud
Let the others sort it out
I wanna be impressed with everyone, yeah
Everyone give all the best

Bright Eyes - lua

I know that it is freezing but I think we have to walk
I keep waving at the taxis; they keep turning their lights off
But Julie knows a party at some actor’s west side loft
Supplies are endless in the evening; by the morning they’ll be gone.

When everything gets lonely I can be my own best friend
I get a coffee and the paper; have my own conversations
With the sidewalk and the pigeons and my window reflection
The mask I polish in the evening, by the morning looks like sh*t.

I know you have a heavy heart; I can feel it when we kiss
So many men much stronger than me have thrown their backs out trying to lift it
But me I’m not gamble you can count on me to split
The love I sell you in the evening, by the morning won’t exist.

You’re looking skinny like a model with your eyes all painted black
You just keep going to the bathroom always say you’ll be right back
Well it takes one to know one, kid, I think you’ve got it bad
But what’s so easy in the evening, by the morning is such a drag.

I’ve got a flask inside my pocket we can share it on the train
If you promise to stay conscious I will try and do the same
We might die from medication, but we sure killed all the pain
But what was normal in the evening, by the morning seems insane.

And I’m not sure what the trouble was that started all of this
The reasons have run away but the feeling never did
It’s not something I would recommend, but it is one way to live
Cause what is simple in the moonlight, by the morning never is
What’s so simple in the moonlight, by the morning is so complicated.
What’s so simple in the moonlight, so simple in the moonlight

The Jim Yoshii Pile-Up - Reckless Driving

Once on the knees and once on the toes.
If this is addiction, I don’t want to know.
And I know all the words to what you said were your favorite songs.
I sit outside your house late at night
to watch the lights go off.

Oh, why
why didn’t you see this coming?
Oh, why
why couldn’t you see this coming?

A knee in the gut, a boot in the eye.
If this compulsion, I’m changing my mind.
changing my mind

Cold and wet in a ditch by the side of the road
somewhere, lie all of my dreams for you and me.

I didn’t have to call,
I could have left you there.
You don’t know how hard it is not to see you.
And I know that you’ve made up your mind and I
and I know I can change it.
And if not me, then my car,
my vicious dog, a fire,
my homemade drugs,
a well-timed appearance in your rear-view mirror.
I’ve all the time in the world.
I’ve got all the time in the world.
All the time, all the time.

My car,
my vicious dog, a fire,
my homemade drugs,
a well-timed appearance in your rear-view mirror.

Oh, why couldn’t you see this coming?

[Graham]

I think i've just fallen in love with that song....

Just the lyrics, or have you listened to it? Jim Yoshii does rock.
And there are more tracks here.

[Graham]

So I'll wait 'till I find the remote part of your heart
When no where else will let us choose a comfortable start
And even if the breath between us smells of alcohol
Call it confusion in the best way possible

Natalie Imbruglia - smoke
(This track is amazing and makes me want to cry. Utterly utterly beautiful. The piano, the strings, the drums, her voice. Everything.)

My lullaby
Hung out to dry
What's up with that?
It's over

Where are you dad?
Mum's looking sad
What's up with that?
It's dark in here

Why,
bleeding is breathing
You're hiding underneath the smoke in the room

Try,
Bleeding is believing
I used to...

My mouth is dry
Forgot how to cry
What's up with that?
You're hurting me...

I'm running fast
Can't Hide the past
What''s up with that?
You're pushing me...

Why
Bleeding is breathing
You're hiding underneath the smoke in the room

Try,
bleeding is believing,
I used to...
I used to...

Why
Bleeding is breathing
You're hiding underneath the smoke in the room

Try
Bleeding is believing
I saw you crawling on the floor

Why
Bleeding is believing
You're hiding underneath the smoke in the room

Try
Bleeding is believing
I saw you
falling on the floor...

Natalie Imbruglia - one more addiction

First the good news,
It's gonna feel very nice,
Then the bad news,
You gotta pay a heavy price,

Rip tide, we slide, we ride on a deep forbidden sea,
Under we go - so slow,
And you're hanging onto me,
And I say,

(Chorus: )
oh oh one more addiction in my world,
Oh one more connection to let go,
Oh floating down the river,
Out of sight forever
from my world
It's the only thing I know how to do,

Reject you,
but I can't follow through,
I'd forget you,
but you'd end up tappin' on my back door,

Somehow I lost myself,
In a tunnel logn and black,
Somewhere, at the end, I pretend,
There's a way of turning back

(Chorus)

Take a breath, let it out,
All the things you frown about
are meaningless
of course, Unless
you're doing this for real I guess,

I meant to but, I dont know what,
Is in the way and could I say,
It's you I bet, I wont forget,
Maybe I'm not ready yet.

(Chorus)

Damien Rice - The Blowers Daughter

And so it is
Just like you said it would be
Life goes easy on me
Most of the time
And so it is
The shorter story
No love, no glory
No hero in her sky

I can't take my eyes off of you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off of you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes...

And so it is
Just like you said it should be
We'll both forget the breeze
Most of the time
And so it is
The colder water
The blower's daughter
The pupil in denial

I can't take my eyes off of you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off of you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes...

Did I say that I loathe you?
Did I say that I want to
Leave it all behind?

I can't take my mind off of you
I can't take my mind off you
I can't take my mind off of you
I can't take my mind off you
I can't take my mind off you
I can't take my mind...
My mind...my mind...
'Til I find somebody new

[Graham]

You gotta be crazy, you gotta have a real need
You gotta sleep on your toes, and when you're on the street
You gotta be able to pick out the easy meat with your eyes closed
And then moving in silently, down wind and out of sight
You gotta strike when the moment is right without thinking.
And after a while, you can work on points for style
Like the club tie, and the firm handshake
A certain look in the eye, and an easy smile
You have to be trusted by the people that you lie to
So that when they turn their backs on you
You'll get the chance to put the knife in.
You gotta keep one eye looking over your shoulder
You know it's going to get harder, and harder, and harder as you get older
And in the end you'll pack up, fly down south
Hide your head in the sand
Just another sad old man
All alone and dying of cancer.
And when you loose control, you'll reap the harvest you have sown
And as the fear grows, the bad blood slows and turns to stone
And it's too late to loose the weight you used to need to throw around
So have a good drown, as you go down, all alone
Dragged down by the stone.
I gotta admit that I'm a little bit confused
Sometimes it seems to me as if I'm just being used
Gotta stay awake, gotta try and shake off this creeping malaise
If I don't stand my own ground, how can I find my way out of this maze?
Deaf, dumb, and blind, you just keep on pretending
That everyone's expendable and no-one has a real friend
And it seems to you the thing to do would be to isolate the winner
And everythings done under the sun
And you believe at heart, everyone's a killer.
Who was born in a house full of pain
Who was trained not to spit in the fan
Who was told what to do by the man
Who was broken by trained personnel
Who was fitted with collar and chain
Who was given a pat on the back
Who was breaking away from the pack
Who was only a stranger at home
Who was ground down in the end
Who was found dead on the phone
Who was dragged down by the stone.
