gloomy sunday - billy holiday (cover)
sunday is gloomy,
my hours are slumberless
dearest the shadows
i live with are numberless
little white flowers
will never awaken you
not where the black coach of
sorrow has taken you
angels have no thought
of ever returning you
would they be angry
if i thought of joining you?
born to die - lana del rey
feet don’t fail me now
take me to the finish line
all my heart, it breaks every step that i take
but i’m hoping that the gates,
they’ll tell me that you’re mine
walking through the city streets
is it by mistake or design?
i feel so alone on a friday night
can you make it feel like home, if i tell you you’re mine
it’s like i told you honey
don’t make me sad, don’t make me cry
sometimes love is not enough and the road gets tough
i don’t know why
keep making me laugh,
let’s go get high
the road is long, we carry on
try to have fun in the meantime
a case of you - james blake (joni mitchell cover)
i met a woman
she had a mouth like yours
she knew your life
she knew your devils and your deeds
and she said
go to him, stay with him if you can
but be prepared to bleed
oh but you are in my blood you’re my holy wine
you’re so bitter, bitter and so sweet
oh I could drink a case of you darling
still I’d be on my feet
i would still be on my feet
bye bye symphony - foxy shazam
i’m kinda sick of losing
it makes me wanna cry
it seems everything in life i try for
i’ll never get before i die
but what’s the point in moaning?
oughtta leave that for the ghost
it’s better to think it through
find the words that bring you hope
oh hope, i need you
life is a bitch but she’s totally doable
she’ll knock you around and she’ll lend you a hand
life is a bitch but she’s totally doable
she may be a beauty, but life is a bitch
forgetting - david gray
crawling then walking
then running and sweating
forgetting
lying and cheating
aiding and abetting
forgetting
itching and scratching
punching and hitting
forgetting, forgetting, forgetting
forgetting
just a girl - no doubt
take this pink ribbon off my eyes
i’m exposed
and it’s no big surprise
don’t you think i know
exactly where i stand
this world is forcing me
to hold your hand
‘cause I’m just a girl, little ‘ol me
don’t let me out of your sight
i’m just a girl, all pretty and petite
so don’t let me have any rights
rock n roll - the sounds
it’s half past ten, it’s getting late
but the night is young and i can’t wait
you know i like it loud
you should know me by now
something sweet or something strong
seems like love no longer can turn me on
like boy need girl and girl need boy
got a nasty habit called rock’n’roll
soon forget - pearl jam
sorry is the fool who trades his soul for a corvette.
thinks he’ll get the girl he’ll only get the mechanic.
what’s missing? he’s living a day he’ll soon forget.
that’s one more time around. the sun is going down.
the moon is out but he’s drunk and shouting.
putting people down. he’s pissing. he’s living a day he’ll soon forget.
counts his money every morning. the only thing that keeps him horny.
locked in a giant house that’s alarming.
the townsfolk they all laugh.
sorry is the fool who trades his love for hi-rise rent.
seem the more you make equals the loneliness you get.
and it’s fitting. he’s barely living a day he’ll soon forget.
that’s one more time around and there is not a sound.
he’s lying dead clutching benjamins. never put the money down.
he’s stiffening. we’re all whistling a man we’ll soon forget.
she’s always a woman - fyfe dangerfield
she can lead you to love
she can take you or leave you
she can ask for the truth
but she’ll never believe
and she’ll take what you give her as long as it’s free
yeah, she steals like a thief
but she’s always a woman to me
all of me - angus & julia stone
is there a cure for this pain
maybe i should have something to eat
but food wont take this emptiness away
i’m hungry for you my love
well i made it through another day
in my cold room
on scraps and pieces left behind
i survive on the memory of you
all of me is all for you
you’re all i see
all of me is all for you
you’re all i need
firecracker - ryan adams
lady, your kicks of silence cough into your room
kiss me slow and softly make me dream of you
well, everybody wants to go on forever
i just wanna burn up hard and bright
i just wanna be your firecracker
and maybe be your baby tonight
