Bat For Lashes - Daniel 4 months ago

Another beautiful song. I find it so peaceful, and relaxing. And the lyrics are nice too. Listen here

Daniel, when I first saw you
I knew that you had a flame in your heart
And under wild blue skies
Marble movie skies
I found a home in your eyes
We’ll never be apart

And when the fires came
The smell of cinders and rain
Perfumed almost everything
We laughed and laughed and laughed
And in the cold and blue car you took me to
The darkest place you knew
And set fire to my heart

When I run in the dark
Daniel
To a place that’s vast
Under a sheet of rain in my heart
Daniel
I dream of home

But in a goodbye bed
With my arms around your neck
Into our mouths the tears crept
Just kids in the eye of the storm
And as my head spun ‘round
My dreams pulled me from the ground
Forever to search for the flame
For home again
For home again

When I run in the dark
Daniel
To a place that’s vast
Under a sheet of rain in my heart
Daniel
I dream of home

When I run in the dark
Daniel
To a place that’s vast
Under a sheet of rain in my heart
Daniel
I dream of home



Lisa Mitchell - Neopolitan Dreams. 4 months ago

I absolutely adore this song, and the video’s so cutesy! :)

You go on I’ll be okay
I can dream the rest away
Its just a little touch of fate, it will be okay
It sure takes its precious time, but it’s got rights and so have I

I turn my head up to the sky
I focus one thought at a time
I do not let the little thieves
Under my tightly buttoned sleeves
You couldn’t be a longer time
I feel like I am walking blind
I have no where I’ll have time.

There are no legible signs
There are no legible signs.

I like the way that you talk
I like the way that you walk
Its hard to recreate such an individual gait.

You wait your turn in the queue,
You say your sorry’s and thank-you’s
I don’t think you’re ever
A hundred percent in the room.

You’re not in the room
You’re not in the room.

Deepest of the dark nights
Here lies, the highest of highs
Neopolitan Dreams, stretching out to the sea.

You wait your turn in the queue,
You say your sorry’s and thank-you’s
I don’t think you’re ever
A hundred percent in the room.

You’re not in the room
You’re not in the room.



La Roux - Quicksand 6 months ago

I’ve had this song in my head for days. Unfortunately it’s too high pitched for me to sing along to lol.

I’m the obsessor
Holding your hand
It seems you have forgotten
About your man
Alone in the darkness
My bed’s a different land
Your touch intensifies

And I’m in the quicksand
I’m in the quicksand
I’m in the quicksand

You’re the upsetter
Stroking my hand
What’s my position?
I don’t understand
Am I your possession?
Am I in demand?
Oh when you turn to me

I’m in the quicksand
I’m in the quicksand
I’m in the quicksand

You, you moved into my mind again oh
You, walking around and free oh
Oh, I could let you stay
But I’m walking on broken ground again
Oh, oh when will I learn?
All you do is push me back in the dark

I’m in the quicksand
I’m in the quicksand
I’m in the quicksand
I’m in the quicksand
I’m in the quicksand



Travis - Why Does It Always Rain On Me? 9 months ago

I can’t sleep tonight
Everybody saying everything’s alright
Still I can’t close my eyes
I’m seeing a tunnel at the end of all these lights

Sunny days
Where have you gone?
I get the strangest feeling you belong
Why does it always rain on me?
Is it because I lied when I was seventeen?
Why does it always rain on me?
Even when the sun is shining
I can’t avoid the lightning

I can’t stand myself
I’m being held up by invisible men
Still life on a shelf when
I got my mind on something else

Sunny days
Where have you gone?
I get the strangest feeling you belong
Why does it always rain on me?
Is it because I lied when I was seventeen?
Why does it always rain on me?
Even when the sun is shining
I can’t avoid the lightning

Oh, where did the blue skies go?
And why is it raining so?
It’s so cold

I can’t sleep tonight
Everybody saying everything’s alright
Still I can’t close my eyes
I’m seeing a tunnel at the end of all these lights

Sunny days
Where have you gone?
I get the strangest feeling you belong
Why does it always rain on me?
Is it because I lied when I was seventeen?
Why does it always rain on me?
Even when the sun is shining
I can’t avoid the lightning

Oh, where did the blue skies go?
And why is it raining so?
It’s so cold
Why does it always rain on me?
Why does it always rain…

Story of my life really…



Metric - I.O.U 9 months ago

Clicky to listen :)

Old world underground, where are you now?
Subtract my age from the mileage
On my speeding heart, credit cards
Accelerate, accumulate
Looked for you downtown
Wound up in a movie with no story
Now it’s late and you are nowhere to be found

Hesitation’s always mine
Hesitate outside the times
With all I don’t say
With all I don’t do
I’m sending you
Invitations to hesitate too

Every ten year-old enemy soldier
Thinks falling bombs are shooting stars sometimes
But she doesn’t make wishes on them
When she wishes, she wishes for less ways to wish for
More ways to work toward it
Ten year-old enemy soldier
Our falling bombs are her shooting stars

Hesitation’s always mine
Hesitate outside the times
Oh call me or drop me a line
Say you’ve been with me
Say you’ve been with me
Say you’ve been with me
This whole time

Old world underground I never knew you
But I’ve seen your face everywhere
There was a farm before we tore
The small town down
Multiply, divide



We Are Scientists - Textbook 12 months ago

Falling over backwards for you
Falling over everybody else
I put myself in that position
Every time I have the chance

I know it’s not my business, to be
Digging up these things I shouldn’t know
Twenty years of bad decisions
Haven’t taught me much at all

Seperate events you’re making
Everyone pretend it’s not your fault
And all of this offence you’re taking
Doesn’t really bother me at all

Twist my arm ‘cause that’s the way you think you’re gonna work this whole thing out
You know you own my body but don’t think that you control my mouth

Having every question answered
Isn’t gonna help at all? [x3]
Having every question answered
Doesn’t help

When you’re not supposed to know
You’re not supposed to know
You’re not supposed to know
Anything

Another textbook situation
Everything I think I know I’ve read
What’s the point of medication?
All it makes me wish; that I were dead

It’s pretty clear that you are me
It’s written here on every single page
I’m smitten but not stupid
I can read it all over your face

Having every question answered
Isn’t gonna help at all? [x3]
Having every question answered
Doesn’t help

When you’re not supposed to know
You’re not supposed to know
You’re not supposed to know
Anything

You’re not supposed to know
Anything



Death Cab for Cutie - Crooked Teeth 12 months ago

It was 100 degrees as we sat beneath a willow tree
Whose tears didn’t care, they just hung in the air
And refused to fall, to fall
I knew I’d made a horrible call
And now the state line felt like the Berlin wall
And there was no doubt about which side I was on

Because I built you a home in my heart
With rotten wood that decayed from the start

Because you can’t find nothing at all
If there was nothing there all along
No, you can’t find nothing at all
If there was nothing there all along

I braved treacherous streets
And kids strung out on home-made speed
And we shared a bed in which I could not sleep
At all, woo hoo, woo hoo oo oo hoo
At night, the sun in retreat
Made the skyline look like crooked teeth
In the mouth of a man who was devouring us both

You’re so cute when you’re slurring your speech
But they’re closing the bar and they want us to leave

And you can’t find nothing at all
If there was nothing there all along
No, you can’t find nothing at all
If there was nothing there all along

I’m a war of head versus heart
And it’s always this way
My head is weak, my heart always speaks
Before I know what it will say

Because you can’t find nothing at all
If there was nothing there all along
No, you can’t find nothing at all
If there was nothing there all along
There were churches, theme parks and malls
There was nothing there all along



Noah & The Whale - Five Years Time. 14 months ago

This song is so cute and cheerful. Clicky to listen :)

Oh in five years time we could be walking round a zoo
With the sun shining down over me and you
And there’ll be love in the bodies of the elephants too
And I’ll put my hand over your eyes, but you’ll peek through

And there’ll be sun, sun, sun
All over our faces
And sun, sun, sun
All over our bodies
And sun, sun, sun
All down my neck
Oh and sun, sun, sun
So what the heck

Cos we’ll be laughing at each others silly little jokes
And we’ll be laughing about how we used to smoke
All those stupid little cigarettes
And drink stupid wine
Cos it’s what we needed to have a good time

But it was fun, fun, fun
When we were drinking
It was fun, fun, fun
When we were drunk
And it was fun, fun, fun
When we were dancing
It was fun, fun, fun
Oh it was fun

Well then I look at you and say
This is the happiest that I’ve ever been
And I’ll say I no longer feel I have to be James Dean
And she’d say
Yeah well I feel pretty happy too
And I’m always pretty happy when I’m just kicking back with you

And it’ll be love, love, love
All through our bodies
And love, love, love
All through our minds
And it’ll be love, love, love
All over her face
And love, love, love
All over mine

And though its nearly all these moments are just in my head
I’ll be thinking ‘bout them as I’m lying in bed
And I know that none of it will even come true
But in my mind I’m havin’ a pretty good time with you

Oh, in Five years time
I might not know you
In Five years time
We might not speak
Oh, In five years time
We might not get along
In five years time
You might just prove me wrong

But there’ll be love, love, love
Wherever you go
There’ll be love, love, love
Wherever you go
There’ll be love, love, love
Wherever you go
There’ll be love, love, love
Wherever you go
There’ll be love, love, love
Wherever you go
There’ll be love, love, love
Wherever you go
There’ll be love, love, love

Wherever you go there’ll be love



Maximo Park - Girls Who Play Guitars. 16 months ago

You’ve been, with me
A year, to the day
365 days
Watching me decay

We used to talk about girls who play guitars
We used to talk about plans in tiny bars

In the gaps, between words
Are the things that really intrigue me
It’s the gasps, and the sighs
That say more about what’s inside you

We used to climb up on a high horse every time
We used to talk about boys with missing spines

It’s her life and her life is worth living (it’s her life)
It never struck her to pause for one minute (it’s her life)

The path, of excess, just led, to boredom
You’ve lived, your life, with your mouth, wide open

It’s her life and her life is worth living (it’s her life)
It never struck her just to pause for one minute (it’s her life)

When you lie on my bed and you label me your friend
Don’t you know how much that hurts?
You could pretend and I wouldn’t know
I could be who you wanted in the dark

She goes and she gets drunk
She gets off
She goes and she gives up
She goes and she gets drunk
She gets off
She goes and she gives up

It’s her life and her life is worth living (it’s her life)
It never struck her just to pause for one minute (it’s her life)

And her life is worth living

We used to talk about girls who play guitars
We used to talk about girls who play guitars
We used to talk about girls who play guitars



The Dresden Dolls - Dirty Business. 17 months ago

I’ve had this song in my head for days. It’s awesome! :)

Raise your glass
We have incorporated
Place your bets
We’re all so sick of waiting
Queen takes jack
You got me this time but I’ll get you back
So pick a number

To all the ones who tried the most
Was I supposed to cheer your efforts?
Sorry that I chose so poorly
Golly gee, am I the poster girl?

She’s the kind of girl who looks for love in all the lonely places
The kind who comes to poker pockets stuffed with kings and aces
She’s the kind of girl who only asked you over when its raining
Just to make you lie there catching water dripping from the ceiling

Lift your hats
Off to the checkout girls with tattooed backs
They’d make an angels’ skin crawl
If you ask them for assistance
There’s an even chance
You’ll get a number

To all the girls at pearl
The surly boys who get to masticate them
I’ve a prize for each and every one of you so just be patient
To all the ones that hated me the most, a toast
You really had me going for a second, I was nervous
Boy am I the poster girl?

She’s the kind of girl who gets her slings and arrows from the dumpster
The kind who tells you she’s bipolar just to make you trust her
She’s the kind of girl who leaves out condoms on the bedroom dresser
Just to make you jealous of the men she fucked before you met her

To all the ones who thought they knew me best, a test to prove your prowess
Who was mine in ‘99?
I want last names and current status
To all the ones that hated me the most, a toast
You really had me going for second, I was nervous
Boy, am I the poster girl?
For some suburban sickness
Better keep a healthy distance
Now its up to you, know what to do
It’s pretty dirty business
