Pick a song that represents how I feel at this moment

Elbow:One day like this

Drinking in the morning sun
Blinking in the morning sun
Shaking off the heavy one
Heavy like a loaded gun

What made me behave that way?
Using words I never say
I can only think it must be love
Oh, anyway, it’s looking like a beautiful day

Someone tell me how I feel
It’s silly wrong but vivid right
Oh, kiss me like the final meal
Yeah, kiss me like we die tonight

Cause holy cow, I love your eyes
And only now I see the light
Yeah, lying with me half-awake
Oh, anyway, it’s looking like a beautiful day

When my face is chamois-creased
If you think I’ll wink, I did
Laugh politely at repeats
Yeah, kiss me when my lips are thin

Cause holy cow, I love your eyes
And only now I see you like
Yeah, lying with me half-awake
Stumbling over what to say
Well, anyway, it’s looking like a beautiful day

So throw those curtains wide!
One day like this a year’d see me right!

Especially as it is one of my most favourite SP songs, I am a bit sad about the whole Leona Lewis thing though, kind of spoiled something beautiful a little bit…

Snow Patrol: Run.

I’ll sing it one last time for you
Then we really have to go
You’ve been the only thing that’s right
In all I’ve done

And I can barely look at you
But every single time I do
I know we’ll make it anywhere
Away from here

Light up, light up
As if you have a choice
Even if you cannot hear my voice
I’ll be right beside you dear

Louder louder
And we’ll run for our lives
I can hardly speak I understand
Why you can’t raise your voice to say

To think I might not see those eyes
Makes it so hard not to cry
And as we say our long goodbye
I nearly do

Light up…

Slower slower
We don’t have time for that
All I want is to find an easier way
To get out of our little heads

Have heart my dear
We’re bound to be afraid
Even if it’s just for a few days
Making up for all this mess

I can’t seem to face up to the facts
I’m tense and nervous and I
Can’t relax
I can’t sleep ‘cause my bed’s on fire
Don’t touch me I’m a real live wire

Psycho Killer
Qu’est-ce que c’est
fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa far better
Run run run run run run run away
Psycho Killer
Qu’est-ce que c’est
fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa far better
Run run run run run run run away

You start a conversation you can’t even finish it.
You’re talkin’ a lot, but you’re not sayin’ anything.
When I have nothing to say, my lips are sealed.
Say something once, why say it again?

Psycho Killer,
Qu’est-ce que c’est
fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa far better
Run run run run run run run away
Psycho Killer
Qu’est-ce que c’est
fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa far better
Run run run run run run run away

Ce que j’ai fais, ce soir la
Ce qu’elle a dit, ce soir la
Realisant mon espoir
Je me lance, vers la gloire … OK
We are vain and we are blind
I hate people when they’re not polite

Psycho Killer,
Qu’est-ce que c’est
fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa far better
Run run run run run run run away
Psycho Killer,
Qu’est-ce que c’est
fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa far better
Run run run run run run run away
oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh….

Every time I close my eyes… it’s you
And I know now who I am
Yeah yeah yeah
And I know now

There’s a place I go when I’m alone
Do anything I want, be anyone I wanna be
But it is us I see
And I cannot believe I’m falling

That’s where I’m going, where are you going
Hold it close, won’t let this go
Dream catch me yeah
Dream catch me when I fall
Or else I won’t come back at all

You do so much
But you don’t know… it’s true
And I know now who I am
Yeah yeah yeah
And I know now

There’s a place I go when I’m alone
Do anything I want, be anyone I wanna be
But it is us I see
And I cannot believe I’m falling

That’s where I’m going, where are you going
Hold it close, won’t let this go
Dream catch me yeah
Dream catch me when I fall
Or else I won’t come back at all

See you as a mountain
a fountain of God
See you as a descant soul
in the setting sun
you as a sound just as silent as none
I’m yours

There’s a place I go when I’m alone
Do anything I want, be anyone I wanna be
But it is us I see
And I cannot believe I’m falling

There’s a place I go when I’m alone
Do anything I want, be anyone I wanna be
But it is us I see
And I cannot believe I’m falling

That’s where I’m going, where are you going
Hold it close, won’t let this go
Dream catch me, yeah
Dream catch me when I fall
Or else I won’t come back at all*

‘cos someone lovely got the new album for me. And then I remembered how much I loved their 2nd album, mostly ‘cos it has this on it…

“Hurry Up And Wait”

Wait to wake to get a ride in the rain,
Buy a ticket they can check, we can claim
So we don’t spend what’s our own,
For a seat, a place to stop,
A green light, a red cross,
Run around naked doing old things like the ones before

For a break so you can take a little something,
That’ll make your next break,
Come a little quicker than the ones before,
For an answer, spy a sweet dancer,
As she walks from the door of the hall,
Wish you waited for your wedding vows

So hurry up and wait
But what’s worth waiting for?
So hurry up and wait
But what’s worth waiting for?

We wait to get warm, the car starts from cold,
Stall to make a first move,
Magazines make the rules to make us lose,
For your dream man, the house you could both plan,
The car in the sales ad,
The wet dream with a man you wished that you had

So hurry up and wait
But what’s worth waiting for?
So hurry up and wait
But what’s worth waiting for?

A watched pot never boils, sugar second to dissolve,
See your appetite lost, foods relevance lost inside
Wait to get there, and when we get there,
We wait around for anyone to tell us what we even got there for

So hurry up and wait
But what’s worth waiting for?
So hurry up and wait
But what’s worth waiting for?
What’s worth waiting for?
What’s worth waiting for?
What’s worth waiting for?
What’s worth waiting for?

So join the queue,
Me and you,
Wait in line,
It takes our time to be satisfied…

Drinking – water to stay thin or is it to purify
I love you all the same

But theres no – no real truce with my fury you dont have to believe me
I love you all the same

But you stole the sun from my heart
You stole the sun from my heart
You stole the sun from my heart
You stole the sun from my heart
You stole the sun from my heart

You have – broken through my armour and I dont have an answer
I love you all the same

I paint – the things I want to see but it dont come easy
I love you all the same

But you stole the the sun from my heart
You stole the sun from my heart

Think Im – lost amongst the undergrowth so much so I woke up
I love you all the same

But you stole the the sun from my heart
You stole the sun from my heart

I have – Ive got to stop smiling it gives the wrong impression
I love you all the same

What’s a boy to do?
When you tell your tale and it never fails
I just end up feeling bad for you
With your hang-dog eyes
You can bring me down now I’m wrapped around your whole hand stop looking so surprised

Make it easy (easy)
Make it easy (easy)

I’ve been burned before
You’re not fooling me there’s no mystery you’ve forgotten what you’re hiding for
Call it self-defense
You can obfuscate and manipulate but it’s only at your own expense

Make it easy (easy)
Make it easy (easy)
Make it easy (easy)
Make it easy (easy)

Easy to be with you
Easy to obey
Easy to forgive you at the end of the day
East not to judge you
Easy to betray
Easy to adore you though you want to run away

It’s easy

Look what you have done
I can do the same two can play this game you’ll no longer be the only one

Make it easy (easy)
Make it easy (easy)
Make it easy (easy)
Easy (easy)

Blur: Charmless man

I met him in a crowded room
Where people go to drink away their gloom
He sat me down and so began
The story of a charmless man

Educated the expensive way
He knows his Claret from his Beaujolais
I think hed like to have been Ronnie Kray
But then nature didn’t make him that way

He went….
la la la la la la la….
He thinks his educated airs
Those family shares
Will protect him
That well respect him
He moves in circles of friends
Who just pretend
That they like him
He does the same to them
And when you put it all together
Theres the model of a charmless man

He knows the swingers and their cavalry
Says he can get in anywhere for free
I began to go a little cross-eyed
And from this charmless man I just had to hide

He talks at speed
He gets nose bleeds
He doesnt see
His days are tumbling
Down upon him
And yet he tries so hard to please
Hes just so keen
For you to listen
But no-ones listening
And when you put it all together
There’s the model of a charmless man

He thinks his educated airs
Those family shares
Will protect him
That you’ll respect him
And yet he tries so hard to please
Hes just so keen
For you to listen
But no-ones listening
And when you put it all together
There’s the model of a charmless man

Oh tell me please that I don’t have to read between the lines
Hey this is me and you don’t have to keep something heavy on your mind
Did you sleep?
Not a wink
Well neither did I

I’ve never been too good at readin’ in between the lines
So babe spell it out but you don’t have to shout when you’re talking to me
Do you care?
Are you there?
Well neither am I

Don’t lock your door everyone is poor between the lines
And I could never steal the sadness you feel when your changing you mind
Oh my dear
Can you hear?
Well neither can I

I want to live and I want you to live happy and free
But I don’t know how to seperate the now from what used to be
Will you sleep?
Not a wink
Well neither will I

“An ending fitting for the start
you twist and tore our love apart
your light fingers through the dark
shattered the lamp- into darkness it cast us…”

“No you’ve got it the wrong way round-
just shut me up and blamed it on the brown”
cornered the boy kicked out at the world, the world kicked back
alot fuckin’ harder…

If you wanna try, If you wanna try
there’s no worse you could do (oh oh oh)
I know you lie (I know you lie)
I’m still in love with you (oh oh oh)

Can’t take me anywhere (I’ll take you anywhere)
You can’t take me anywhere (I can’t take you anywhere)
I’ll take you anywhere you wanna go

OH,YOU CAN’T STAND ME NOW,
YOU CAN’T STAND ME NOW,
YOU CAN’T STAND ME NOW,
YOU CAN’T STAND ME NOW,
YOU CAN’T STAND ME NOW,
YOU CAN’T STAND ME NOW,
YOU CAN’T STAND ME NOW,
YOU CAN’T STAND ME NOW

Have we enough to keep it together?
or do we just keep on pretending (and hope our
luck is never ending)...
You tried to pull the wool I wasn’t feeling too clever,
and you take all that they’re lending
until you needed mending…

If you wanna try, If you wanna try
there’s no worse you could do (oh oh oh)
I know you lie
All you do is make me cry
And all these words they aint true (oh oh oh)

I Can’t take me anywhere (I can’t take you anywhere)
You can’t take me anywhere (I’ll take you anywhere)
I’ll take you anywhere you wanna go
