All The Good Guys Are Dead And I'm Twisting My Moustache (Bombs Over Providence)
So it's true: 1989 really is that far away and I wouldn't care, had I not the fortune to be shown the history of memory lost.
The sky is falling down and we're being convinced that it's rain, with ideals as parasols we're soaked all the same.
Questioning what we've always known.
Here I reconcile the difference between my concern and long weekend discussions of our weakest ends, and parlour room socialism; activist party tricks.
I'll cut dead the pitch and wane of 10,000 voices screaming, and I'll draw blood from the claims that Tiananmen isn't everywhere.
Beauty is a weapon.
Spark the fuse and we could be: just enough, just in time, just of thought.
Knowing that all this belongs to us.
We will not be sold away on this forum of rights exchange.
Where have all the students gone?
Have we been bought as well?
Did we die?
Are we as guilty?
And we'll burn before we learn, we'll fan these burning textbook pages keeping us awake.
Faintly Falling Ashes (The Lawrence Arms)
Another senseless week of crowded thoughts and crooked teeth
Morning frost and frozen sidewalks
All those days that burn inside us
Swell up in the silence of snowflakes falling magically
But the magic fades into the memory
Sleigh bells ringing laughing all the way
Cold hands of winter grasp as I gasp for breath
Is this my last?
No thoughts of dying, no more self loathing for today
So deck the halls with drunken folly
Swallow resolutions, line our stomachs with illusions
Car engines sputtering like these smoke filled dreams
Mistletoes and colored light bulbs
And the kiss of winter fades into the memory
Angels singing lift me off the ground
Yesterday is frozen in the reverie
Tomorrow is melting
Let's raise our glasses to these faintly falling ashes
Ace Reject (Sugarbabes)
See my love is all I can give you
Nothing more cos life is how I want it to be with you and me
Staying together, yeah
Take it all, I'm here boy
I got what you need here, talk to me
And help me breathe
I wanna hold on
To sweet memories
Cos wasting time until your heart
And mind realises I am the one
I won't disguise my love for you
It's true I can't
Wait for you to be there
All my life, I need
Someone to make me feel good
And I wish that it was you
Every journey on other side
Images always pass me by
Feel like leaving the world behind
When I think of you
Every moment I'm fighting this
Had to erase all your messages
Couldn't handle the things we said
Still I'm feeling you
It's driving me crazy, baby
Lately you've been slipping away from me
I try to keep holding on
I get nothing wrong
Is there something I didn't see
We break up and make it up
Back and forth we never stop
Everytime a change of heart
I can't keep up
When you say yes then I say no
When it turns hot, you make it cold
But still something between us holds together
We break up and make it up
Back and forth we never stop
Everytime a change of heart
I can't keep up
When you say yes then I say no
When it turns hot, you make it cold
But still something between us holds together
You turned down the light in me
I think our time is over
And ain't it funny how sweet I dream
But the bed keeps on getting colder
Sometimes when I close my eyes
It feels like I'm living by numbers
Cos I've been holding you so damn tight
I gotta stop cos it's pulling me under
It's driving me crazy, baby
Lately you've been slipping away from me
I try to keep holding on
I get nothing wrong
Is there something I didn't see
We break up and make it up
Back and forth we never stop
Everytime a change of heart
I can't keep up
When you say yes then I say no
When it turns hot, you make it cold
But still something between us holds together
We break up and make it up
Back and forth we never stop
Everytime a change of heart
I can't keep up
When you say yes then I say no
When it turns hot, you make it cold
But still something between us holds together
Pink Bullets (The Shins)
I was just bony hands as cold as a winder pole
you held a warm stone out new flowing blood to hold
oh what a contrast you were
to the brutes in the halls
my timid young fingers held a decent animal
Over the ramprts you tossed
the scent of your skin and some foreign flowers
tired to a brick, as sweet as a song
the years have been short but the days were long
Cool of a temperate breeze from dark skies to wet grass
we fell in a field it seems now a thousand summers passed
when our kite lines first crossed
we tied them into knots
and to finally fly apart we had to cut them off
Since then it's been a book you read in reverse
so you understand less as the pages turn
or a movie so crass and awkwardly cast
that even I could be the star
I don't look back much as a rule
and all this way before murder was cool
but your memory is here and I'd like it to
stay warm light on a winter's day
Over the ramparts you tossed
the scent of your skin and some foreign flowers
tired to a brick, sweet as a song
the years have been short but the days go slowly by
two loose kites falling from the sky
drawn to the ground and an end to flight
The Mark 2:14 (Overkill)
Steal it, take it, know my name in loving memory
Sand it, brand it, in your brain,a forthright eulogy
I am but a sinner here, my faults are underlined
I have but to hold you near to cleanse the sins of time
I have known you, all too well
I have shown you, all too well
I have thrilled you, all too well
I have filled you, with the sense of what you need to
Speak up, calling my name out
Speak up, the shattering of doubt
This is where you start
With nails run through your heart
Leave the name, burned in the brain
Leave your mark
Find it, blind it with your light or curse to be alive
Will it, kill it in your night, commit yourself to thrive
You are but a sinner hear, each breath is now your crime
You have but to shed a tear, to wash away the time
I have known you, all too well
I have shown you, all too well
I have thrilled you, all too well
I have filled you, with the sense of what you need to
Speak up, calling my name out
Speak up, the shattering of doubt
This is where you start
With nails run through your heart
Leave the name, burned in the brain
Leave your mark
Give me your principles, values and hope
Or Ill take them away
Not so convincible if you cant cope
Or rise to the day
Worn out the morals that lit up the path
Now gone to the dark
Frayed are the laurels, igniting the wrath
They left in the mark
Wrap me in darkness, wrap me in light
Wrap me in indestructible light
Way down the road its better, believe me
Way down the road its gone (god)
Carry the load, its harder, believe me
Carry it to your dawn (a lightning rod)
Way down the road its better, believe me
Way down the road its gone (god)
Carry the load, its harder, believe me
Carry it to your dawn (a lightning rod)
Angel Delivery (Emil Bulls)
I Should Thank God That It's True
He Sent an Angel Like You
But From The First Day
I Had No Clue How To Handel
Oh My
Angel I Clipped Your Wings
Only Gravity Keeps You Here With Me
Oh Angel I'm Sorry Right Now
But My Love Is No Tape So I Can't Rewind
There's Never A Forever Thing
But Your Tears on My Shirt
Seem Not to Dry Oh My
Angel I Clipped Your Wings
Only Gravity Keeps You Here With Me
Oh Angel I'm Sorry Right Now
But My Love Is No Tape So I Can't Rewind
Well That's The Swing Of Things
I'm Sitting Here Just Telling Lies
To This Photo Of You And Me
Love Was not Known At Our Address
We've Gone Too Far Too Soon
You Were Just Unable To Deliver
Angel, Angel Let You Memories Fade Away Oh My
Angel I Clipped Your Wings
Only Gravity Keeps You Here With Me
Oh Angel I'm Sorry Right Now
But My Love Is No Tape So I Can't Rewind
Oh Baby Maybe We Were Too Young
Oh Baby Maybe You Are The One
Oh Baby You Would Better Become Undone
That's The Story About A Love That Failed
In My Pocket (The Cat Empire)
Ive got a key
And a piece of paper in my pocket deep
In my pocket piece of paper and a key
as I wander through the street
War is there a war
or is there isnt a war anymore?
Somebody told me that nothing is for sure
Can you hear the ocean roar
On each street is a tree
In the distance the desert sleeps
Sometimes a sigh is a song
And a breath is a melody
Oceans rise and oceans fall
So just what does tomorrow mean?
I give smile a give a song
For one moments eternity
Na na na na na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na na na
Oh but its some mob
Some mob that brought me here I know it is my job
To seek my fortune Nanna thank you for this mob
Remember you now you are gone
If I went away
Tropical island somewhere sunny every day
But everyone I ever cared about remained
Would I tan or would I fade?
So every morning he wake
Spend his day at the daybreak
And every spoonful he take
Be of something his own make
Mountains rise and mountains fall
So just what does forever mean?
I give a smile I give a song
For one moments eternity
CHORUS
Saltwater (The Cat Empire)
Ive got the clouds on a string
That I pull with my little finger elegantly
What is this oh whats this music on the breeze
It sounds like all my holidays when my father used to say:
Lets go down to the beach
And wed go down to the beach
My little sisters and me
Sometimes a man can feel like he is just a puppet
And the wind blows him here and blows him there
But when I kiss you my dear
I feel like a buccaneer
And water makes its music everywhere
CHORUS
Saltwater
Oh how I miss your misty kisses
Saltwater
Oh what expressionless bliss
Is this?
Ive got the sky in my eyes
As I lie on my back in the deep blue sea
What is this oh what could this strange feeling be?
It feels like:
It feels like:
It feels like:
I dont know what it feels like
But it feels right
Sometimes a man is like an icecream in a desert
And he wonders what is it we seek?
Like water runs through your fingers
Memories rise up from the deep.
CHORUS
Carpenteria (Slick Shoes)
When we were kids
We always thought we'd stay best friends
But now we're all grown up
I never thought it'd be the way it is now
All the time we had spent growing up
Not knowing who to be
Now I see that I know just how I should feel
Now it's all gone
I don't accept the memories
Of the children that we used to be in our hearts
[Chorus]

You've Got To Hurt Before You Heal (Bobby "Blue" Bland)
When you lose the one you love
You heart goes through changes
Especially when your sweet memories
Still hold their thrill
And just when you think
The pain is all gone
Don't fool yourself
'Cause here's the deal
That's the way love works
You've got to hurt before you heal
Oh, yes you have
You gonna cry all you gonna cry
And when the tears
They may stop falling
They may stop falling all down your face
But they still fall down your heart
You never know
How long the wound'll take to heal
It might take months
It could take years
But that's the way love works
You've got to hurt...oh...before you heal
I said before you heal
You're gonna cry
Oh, you're gonna cry
And when the tears
They may stop fallin'
They may stop fallin' down your face
But they still fall down your heart
Oh you never know
How long the wound'll take to heal
It might take months
It could take years
But that's the way love works
Uh huh, you got to hurt
Well before you heal
Oh yes you have
Just when you think the pain is all gone
Don't fool yourself
'Cause here's the deal
And that's the way love works
Lord you got to hurt before you heal
Oh yes you have
That's the way love works
You got to hurt...well...before you heal
Let us sing it one more time
That's the way love works
Lord you got to hurt before you heal
Oh yes you have
That's the way love works
Lord you got to hurt before you heal...<fade>
