The Strokes - The Adults Are Talking (live at Coachella 2026)

The Strokes - The Adults Are Talking 

They've been sayin', "You're sophisticated"
They're complainin', overeducated
You are saying all the words I'm dreaming
Say it after me
Say it after me
They will blame us, crucify and shame us
We can't help it if we are a problem
We are tryin' hard to get your attention
I'm climbin' up your wall
Climbin' up your wall
 

Don't go there 'cause you'll never return
I know you think of me when you think of her
But then it don't make sense when you're tryin' hard
To do the right thing but without recompense
And then you did something wrong and you said it was great
And now you don't know how you could ever complain
Because you're all confused 'cause you want me to
But then you want me to do it the same as you
 

You were waitin' for the elevator
You were sayin' all the words I'm dreaming
No more askin' questions or excuses
Information's here
Here and everywhere
 

Don't go there 'cause you'll never return
I know you think of me when you think of her
But then it don't make sense when you're tryin' hard
To do the right thing but without recompense
And then you did something wrong and you said it was great
And now you don't know how you could ever complain
Because you're all confused 'cause you want me to
But then you want me to do it the same way as you, and, but
 

I don't, I don't want anything
I know it's not, it's not your fault
I don't want anyone
Always I do, it's not for you
 

Ah
Ooh
 

Stockholders
Same shit, a different lie
I'll get it right sometime
Oh, maybe not tonight
Oh, maybe not tonight
Oh, maybe not tonight
Oh, maybe not tonight
Oh, maybe not tonight
 

Hello?
Yeah, boy, here we go
And a-one, and a-two, and a-three
Here we go, friends
Hold on, I can't-
Maybe that's kooky situation
So, let's go back to the old key, old tempo, everything
Okay

Jaafar Jackson's Stunning Piano Cover of Justin Bieber's '"As Long As You Love Me"

Jaafar Jackson "As Long As You Love Me"

As long as you love me
As long as you love me
As long as you love me
We're under pressure
Seven billion people in the world tryna fit in
Keep it together
Smile on your face, even though your heart is frowning
But hey now, you know girl
We both know it's a cruel world
But I will take my chances
As long as you love me
We could be starving
We could be homeless
We could be broke
As long as you love me
I'll be your platinum
I'll be your silver
I'll be your gold
As long as you love me
As long as you love me, love me
I'll be your soldier
Fighting every second of the day for your dreams, girl
I'll be your Hova
You could be my Destiny's Child on the scene, girl
So don't stress and don't cry
Oh, we don't need no wings to fly
Just take my hand
As long as you love me
We could be starving
We could be homeless
We could be broke
As long as you love me
I'll be your platinum
I'll be your silver
I'll be your gold
As long as you love me, love me
As long as you love me
I don't know if this makes sense, but you're my hallelujah
Give me a time and place, I'll rendezvous it
I'll fly you to it, I'll beat you there
Girl, you know I got you
Us, trust, a couple things I can't spell without U
Now we on top of the world
'Cause that's just how we do
Used to tell me sky's the limit, now the sky's our point of view
Man, we stepping out, like woah, oh God
Cameras point and shoot
Ask me, "What's my best side"
I stand back and point at you, you, you
The one that I argue with
Feel like I need a new girl to be bothered with
But the grass ain't always greener on the other side
It's green where you water it
So I know, we got issues baby, true, true, true
But I'd rather work on this with you
Than to go ahead and start with someone new
As long as you love me
As long as you love me
We could be starving
We could be homeless
We could be broke
As long as you love me
I'll be your platinum
I'll be your silver
I'll be your gold
As long as you love me
As long as you love me
As long as you love me (I'll be your silver, I'll be your gold)
As long as you love me, you love me, you love me (it's all I want baby)
As long as you love me, you love me, you love me (please, don't go)
As long as you love me, as long as you love me, 'long as you love me
As long as you love me

Arcade Fire - Wake Up (Glastonbury 2007)

 Arcade Fire - Wake Up

Something filled up
My heart with nothing
Someone told me not to cry
But now that I'm older
My heart's colder
And I can see that it's a lie

Children, wake up
Hold your mistake up
Before they turn the summer into dust
If the children don't grow up
Our bodies get bigger but our hearts get torn up
We're just a million little gods causing rain storms
Turning every good thing to rust
I guess we'll just have to adjust

With my lightning bolts a glowing
I can see where I am going to be
When the reaper he reaches and touches my hand
With my lightning bolts a glowing
I can see where I am going
With my lightning bolts a glowing
I can see where I am go-going
You better look out below! 

Live - Pain Lies on the Riverside (1992/Live At The Chameleon, MTV Version)

 Live - Pain Lies on the Riverside

I have never taken life
Yet I have often paid the price
And you, you are a victim of this age
And the guilt that hangs around your neck
Has got me locked up in a cage
 

You've got to learn to live until no end
But first you must learn to swim
All over again
Oh no because...
Pain lies on the riverside (yes)
And pain will never say goodbye (no no)
 

Pain lies on the riverside
So put your feet in the water
Put your head in the water
Put your soul in the water
Join me for a swim tonight
 

I have forever, always tried
To stay clean and constantly baptized (oh)
I'm aware that the river's banks they are dry
And to wait for a flood
Is to wait for life
 

I've got to learn to live until no end
But first I must learn to swim all over again
Yeah yeah yeah because...
 

Pain lies on the riverside (yeah)
And pain will never say goodbye (no no)
Pain lies on the riverside
 

So put your feet in the water
Put your head in the water
C'mon put your soul in the water
Join me for a swim tonight
For a swim tonight
(Oh my Lord)
 

I've got to learn to live until no end
I've got to learn to swim
All over, all over, all over again
Yeah yeah yeah because
 

Pain lies on the riverside
(oooh nah nah nah nah)
And pain will never say goodbye (no no)
Pain lies on the riverside
 

So put your feet in the water
Put your head in the water now
C'mon put your soul in the water
Join me for a swim tonight
 

For a swim tonight
To swim (all over, all over, all over, all over again)
To live (all over, all over, all over, all over again)
Live (all over again)

The Stockholm Robot - Novocaine Smile

 The Stockholm Robot - Novocaine Smile


We jumped off the speeding train
the one sped in circles heading nowhere for a fee
we hobbled along with the field brakes and springs
with some tourniquets on our knees

we snuck by the man asleep at the base of a tree
with a gun in his hand

we stepped on the criss cross branches and fell ten feet deep
and we realized it was part of his plan

he peered over the edge
then ashed his cigarette in our hair
and shook his head
he cussed up a storm
and said he'd caught the wrong ones
and we should thank God that we weren't dead

so we did


somehow we learned
to smile at the rain
as it was pouring down
pouring down 

and all the rest of life's little tests
were washed away
into a puddle
for someone else to step in

for someone else to step in

for someone else


First Peter Chapter Five

1    THE elders which are among you I exhort, who am also an elder, and a witness of the sufferings of Christ,
    and also a partaker of the glory that shall be revealed:

2    Feed the flock of God which is among you, taking the oversight thereof, not by constraint, but willingly;
    not for filthy lucre, but of a ready mind;

3    Neither as being lords over God's heritage, but being ensamples to the flock.

4    And when the chief Shepherd shall appear, ye shall receive a crown of glory that fadeth not away.

5    Likewise, ye younger, submit yourselves unto the elder.  Yea, all of you be subject one to another,
    and be clothed with humility:  for God resisteth the proud, and giveth grace to the humble.

6    Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time:

7    Casting all your care upon him;  for he careth for you.

8    Be sober, be vigilant;  because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom
    he may devour:

9    Whom resist stedfast in the faith, knowing that the same afflictions are accomplished in your brethren
    that are in the world.

10    But the God of all grace, who hath called us unto his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after that ye have suffered
    a while, make you perfect, stablish, strengthen, settle you.

11    To him be glory and dominion for ever and ever.  Amen.

12    By Silvanus, a faithful brother unto you, as I suppose, I have written briefly, exhorting and testifying that
    this is the true grace of God wherein ye stand.

13    The church that is at Babylon, elected together with you, saluteth you;  and so doth Marcus my son.

14    Greet ye one another with a kiss of charity.  Peace be with you all that are in Christ Jesus.  Amen.

    First Peter Chapter Five - KJV

Psalm 46 - KJV and Scottish Metrical Psalter

 
1    GOD is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.

2    Therefore will not we fear, though the earth be removed, and though the mountains
      be carried into the midst of the sea;

3    Though the waters thereof roar and be troubled, though the mountains shake with the
      swelling thereof. Selah.

4    There is a river, the streams whereof shall make glad the city of God, the holy place of
      the tabernacles of the most High.

5    God is in the midst of here; she shall not be moved:  God shall help her, and that right early.

6    The heathen raged, the kingdoms were moved:  he uttered his voice, the earth melted.

7    The LORD of host is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge.  Selah.

8    Come, behold the works of the LORD, what desolations he hath made in the earth.

9    He maketh wars to cease unto the end of the earth; he breaketh the bow, and cutteth the
      spear in sunder; he burneth the chariot in the fire.

10    Be still, and know that I am God:  I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth.

11    The LORD of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge.  Selah.

        Psalm 46 - KJV

 

 1 God is our refuge and our strength,
in straits a present aid;
2 Therefore, although the earth remove,
we will not be afraid:
Though hills amidst the seas be cast;
3 Though waters roaring make,
And troubled be; yea, though the hills,
by swelling seas do shake.
4 A river is, whose streams do glad
the city of our God;
The holy place, wherein the Lord
most high hath his abode.
5 God in the midst of her doth dwell;
nothing shall her remove:
The Lord to her an helper will,
and that right early, prove.
6 The heathen rag'd tumultuously,
the kingdoms moved were:
The Lord God uttered his voice,
the earth did melt for fear.
7 The Lord of hosts upon our side
doth constantly remain:
The God of Jacob's our refuge,
us safely to maintain.
8 Come, and behold what wondrous works
have by the Lord been wrought;
Come, see what desolations
he on the earth hath brought.
9 Unto the ends of all the earth
wars into peace he turns:
The bow he breaks, the spear he cuts,
in fire the chariot burns.
10 Be still, and know that I am God;
among the heathen I
Will be exalted; I on earth
will be exalted high.
11 Our God, who is the Lord of hosts,
is still upon our side;
The God of Jacob our refuge
for ever will abide.

Psalm 46 Scottish Metrical Psalter 

Mod Sun - I Remember Way Too Much

 Mod Sun - I Remember Way Too Much

I remember waiting for the sun to rise
I remember where we went wrong that night
I remember way too much
I remember way too much
I remember waiting for the sun to rise
I remember where we went wrong that night
I remember way too much
I remember way too much
Ay, I remember when we wished we were older
I remember how we felt late October
"I'll always keep you warm", is what I told her
"I'll always keep you warm", is what I told her
I remember wishing on a four leaf clover
And writing your name all over my folders
"I'll always be around", is what I told her
"I'll always be around", is what I told her
I remember waiting for the sun to rise
I remember where we went wrong that night
I remember way too much
I remember way too much
I remember waiting for the sun to rise
I remember where we went wrong that night
I remember way too much
I remember way too much
I remember waiting for the sun to rise
I remember where we went wrong that night
I remember way too much
I remember way too much
And you know I could never forget
All the trouble me and you got in
In the summer of 2006
Baby, you know I could never forget
I remember sneaking out and coming over
I remember freaking out, I wasn't sober (no)
"I hope I end up with you", is what I told her
"I'm gonna end up with you", is what I told her
I remember waiting for the sun to rise
I remember where we went wrong that night
I remember way too much
I remember way too much
I remember waiting for the sun to rise
I remember where we went wrong that night
I remember way too much
I remember way too much
I remember waiting for the sun to rise
I remember where we went wrong that night
I remember way too much
I remember way too much
I remember way too much
Is what, is what I told her

Chris Cornell - Preaching the End of the World

 Chris Cornell - Preaching the End of the World

Hello, I know there's someone out there who can understand
And who's feeling the same way as me
I'm twenty-four and I've got everything to live for
But I know now that it wasn't meant to be
'Cause all has been lost and all has been won
And there's nothing left for us to save
But now I know that I don't want to be alone today
So if you find that you've been feeling just the same

Call me now it's alright
It's just the end of the world
You need a friend in the world
'Cause you can't hide
So call and I'll get right back
If your intentions are pure
I'm seeking a friend for the end of the world

I've got a photograph I'll send it off today
And you will see that I am perfectly sane
Not for a lifetime or forever and a day
'Cause we know now that just won't be the case
There will be no commitment and no confessions
And no little secrets to keep
No little children or houses with roses just the
End of the world and me
'Cause all has been gone and all has been done
And there's nothing left for us to say
But we could be together as they blow it all away
And we can share in every moment as it breaks

Call me now it's alright
It's just the end of the world
You need a friend in the world
'Cause you can't hide
So call and I'll get right back
If your intentions are pure
I'm seeking a friend for the end of the world.

First Thessalonians Chapter Five


1    BUT of the times and the seasons, brethren, ye have no need that I write unto you.

2    For yourselves know perfectly that they day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night.

3    For when they shall say, Peace and safety;  then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon
    a woman with child;  and they shall not escape.

4    But ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief.

5    Ye are all the children of light, and the children of the day:  we are not of the night nor of darkness.

6    Therefore let us not sleep, as do others;  but let us watch and be sober.

7    For they that sleep sleep in the night;  and they that be drunken are drunken in the night.

8    But let us, who are of the day, be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love;  and for an helmet,
    the hope of salvation.

9    For God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ,

10    Who died for us, that , whether we wake or sleep, we should live together with him.

11    Wherefore comfort yourselves together, and edify one another, even as also ye do.

12    And we beseech you, brethren, to know them which labour among you, and are over you in the Lord,
    and admonish you;

13    And to esteem them very highly in love for their work's sake.  And be at peace among yourselves.

14    Now we exhort you, brethren, warn them that are unruly, comfort the feebleminded, support the weak,
    be patient toward all men.

15    See that none render evil for evil unto any man;  but ever follow that which is good, both among
    yourselves, and to all men.

16    Rejoice evermore.

17    Pray without ceasing.

18    In every thing give thanks:  for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.

19    Quench not the Spirit.

20    Despise not prophesyings.

21    Prove all things;  hold fast that which is good.

22    Abstain from all appearance of evil.

23    And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly;  and I pray God your whole spirit and soul and body be
    preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.

24    Faithful is he that calleth you, who also will do it.

25    Brethren, pray for us.

26    Greet all the brethren with an holy kiss.

27    I charge you by the Lord that this epistle be read unto all the holy brethren.

28    The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you.  Amen.

Manchester Orchestra - Bed Head (Echo Mountain Rooftop Session)

  Manchester Orchestra - Bed Head

Arguing with the dead
I’m not alone but it sure feels like someone left
Deaf notes and talking heads

Carrying on your debt
Blood on the bed head and volumes you left unsaid
Let ‘em talk and let it habit
Now I’m afraid you’re alone

Oh my god
Let me relinquish and start to distinguish, my past, and my time
You and I are holy fire, so…

Oh my god
Let me extinguish, the habit, the sequence, the loss, in my mind

Now I believe in the ghost

Clawing against your skin
Clutching my neck said “it’s all supposed to end like this”
You and I are panoramic
Now I’m afraid of the ghost

Oh my god
Let me relinquish and start to distinguish, my past, and my time
There is only love and fire, so…

Oh my god, let me extinguish the habit, the sequence, the loss, in my mind
Now I believe in the ghost

Right by the entrance you broke, finally reality’s taking its hold
You’re not who you were, but you can’t let it go
You’re not where you’re from, but you’re always alone
So I stick a flag in the ground, I think I now who I’m living for now
I am what I am, same above as the ground
It’s not what I want, but I’m figuring it out

Oh my god
Let me relinquish and start to distinguish, my past, and my time
You and I are holy fire, so…

Oh my god
Let me extinguish, the habit, the sequence, the loss, in my mind
Now I believe in the ghost

Masuka - guitar cover of Muse - Hysteria

Muse - Hysteria 

 It's bugging me
Grating me
And twisting me around
Yeah, I'm endlessly
Caving in
And turning inside out
'Cause I want it now
I want it now
Give me your heart and your soul
And I'm breaking out
I'm breaking out
Last chance to lose control
And it's holding me
Morphing me
And forcing me to strive
To be endlessly
Cold within
And dreaming I'm alive
'Cause I want it now
I want it now
Give me your heart and your soul
I'm not breaking down
I'm breaking out
Last chance to lose control
And I want you now
I want you now
I feel my heart implode
And I'm breaking out
Escaping now
Feeling my faith erode

Sam Barber - Hate it Here

 Sam Barber - Hate it Here

Shakey breathing subtle speaking it ain’t fierce but it shows 
Cause aimless meaning Sheetrock and ceiling have turned me into a ghost 
Endless working concrete poured in it all sinks to my chest
So burn the curtains cause I’m fairly certain there’s only darkness ahead

And I can’t escape the way
That you say I’ve changed
And now I hate the way
That you say my name

All I am and all I was is all I hear 
I’d give all just to turn back the years 
Where I’ve been what I’ve done is what I fear 
Most days I hate it here 
I hate it here 

Pictures hanging hung up by shameless ways that I’d never show
Bone dried ran through, I can’t even blame you for trading me for my ghost

And I can’t escape the way
That you say I’ve changed
And now I hate the way
That you say my name

All I am and all I was is all I hear 
I’d give all just to turn back the years 
Where I’ve been what I’ve done is what I fear 
Most days I hate it here
I hate it here

All I am and all I was is all I hear 
I’d give all just to turn back the years 
Where I’ve been what I’ve done is what I fear 
Most days I hate it here

 The Stockholm Robot - A Glass House, The Fool's Cage

I heard you say  you'd  solve the greatest mysteries, somehow, someway
from God, to ?, to loving, ?  to politics
But you still haven't gotten out of bed

Tucked in tightly you take refuge under covers, 
under hopes and wishes nightly,
but dreams do not develop without fearlessness
just step outside and face the biting winds

and when you step outside you feel the need to close your eyes
but keep them open wide 
you need to see the barriers to tear them down all  (or along?) the way

don't despair, shatter your glass house and you can breathe fresh air
destroy it with the stones you've held for years

 Throw your stones


throw your stones
throw your stones
throw your stones
throw your stones
throw your stones
throw your stones
throw your stones


One, two, three, four!


throw ohhh oohhh ohhhh ohhhh
throw oooohhhhh oohhhh ohhh  ohhhhh

Twenty One Pilots Cover The White Stripes "Seven Nation Army" | Rock Hall 2025 Induction

Twenty One Pilots "Seven Nation Army" 

 I'm gonna fight 'em all

A seven nation army couldn't hold me back

They're gonna rip it off

Taking their time right behind my back

And I'm talking to myself at night

Because I can't forget

Back and forth through my mind

Behind a cigarette


And the message coming from my eyes

Says, "Leave it alone"


Don't wanna hear about it

Every single one's got a story to tell

Everyone knows about it

From the Queen of England to the Hounds of Hell

And if I catch it coming back my way

I'm gonna serve it to you

And that ain't what you want to hear

But that's what I'll do


And the feeling coming from my bones

Says, "Find a home"


I'm going to Wichita

Far from this opera forevermore

I'm gonna work the straw

Make the sweat drip out of every pore

And I'm bleeding, and I'm bleeding, and I'm bleeding

Right before the Lord

All the words are gonna bleed from me

And I will sing no more


And the stains coming from my blood

Tell me, "Go back home"

First Peter Chapter Four

1    FORASMUCH then as Christ hath suffered for us in the flesh, arm yourselves likewise with the same mind: 
    for he that hath suffered in the flesh hath ceased from sin;

2    That he no longer should live the rest of his time in the flesh to the lusts of men, but to the will of God.

3    For the time past of our life may suffice us to have wrought the will of the Gentiles, when we walked in 
    lasciviousness, lusts, excess of wine, revellings, banquetings, and abominable idolatries:

4    Wherein they think it strange that ye run not with them to the same excess of riot, speaking evil of you:

5    Who shall give account to him that is ready to judge the quick and the dead.

6    For for this cause was the gospel preached also to them that are dead, that they might be judged according
    to men in the flesh, but live according to God in the spirit.

7    But the end of all things is at hand:  be ye therefore sober, and watch unto prayer.

8    And above all things have fervent charity among yourselves;  for charity shall cover the multitude of sins.

9    Use hospitality one to another without grudging.

10    As every man hath received the gift, even so minister the same one to another, as good stewards of the manifold 
    grace of God.

11    If any man speak, let him speak as the oracles of God;  if any man minister, let him do it as of the ability 
    which God giveth:  that God in all things may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom be praise and dominion
    for ever and ever.  Amen.

12    Beloved, think it not strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing
    happened unto you:

13    But rejoice, inasmuch as ye are partakers of Christ's sufferings;  that, when his glory shall be revealed, 
    ye may be glad also with exceeding joy.

14    If ye be reproached for the name of Christ, happy are ye;  for the spirit of glory and of God resteth upon you:
    on their part he is evil spoken of, but on your part he is glorified.

15    But let none of you suffer as a murderer, or as a thief, or as an evildoer, or as a busybody in other men's matters.

16    Yet if any man suffer as a Christian, let him not be ashamed;  but let him glorify God on this behalf.

17    For the time is come that judgment must begin at the house of God:  and if it first begin at us, what shall the end
    be of them that obey not the gospel of God?

18    And if the righteous scarcely be saved, where shall the ungodly and the sinner appear?

19    Wherefore let them that suffer according to the will of God commit the keeping of their souls to him in well
    doing, as unto a faithful Creator.

Jonah Chapter Four

1    BUT it displeased Jonah exceedingly, and he was very angry.

2    And he prayed unto the LORD, and said, I pray thee, O LORD, was not this my saying, when I was yet in my
    country?  Therefore I fled before unto Tarshish:  for I knew that thou art a gracious God, and merciful, slow to
    anger, and of great kindness, and repentest thee of the evil.

3    Therefore now, O LORD, take, I beseech thee, my life from me;  for it is better for me to die than to live.


4    Then said the LORD, Doest thou well to be angry?

5    So Jonah went out of the city, and sat on the east side of the city, and there made him a booth, and sat under it in
    the shadow, till he might see what would become of the city.

6    And the LORD God prepared a gourd, and made it to come up over Jonah, that it might be a shadow over his
    head, to deliver him from his grief.  So Jonah was exceeding glad of the gourd.

7    But God prepared a worm when the morning rose the next day, and it smote the gourd that it withered.

8    And it came to pass, when the sun did arise, that God prepared a vehement east wind;  and the sun beat upon
    the head of Jonah, that he fainted, and wished in himself to die, and said, It is better for me to die than to live.

9    And God said to Jonah, Doest thou well to be angry for the gourd?  and he said, I do well to be angry, even unto death.

10    Then said the LORD, Thou hast had pity on the gourd, for the which thou hast not laboured neither madest it grow;
    which came up in a night, and perished in a night:

11    And should not I spare Nineveh, that great city, wherein are more than sixscore thousand persons that cannot
    discern between their right hand and their left hand;  and also much cattle?

Give me a moment, some kinda mysterious
Give me a shot at the night

Has long been outgrown
Throw me a life line
Cause honey I got nothing to lose

Wilderado - The Worst of It

 Wilderado - The Worst of It

 i can see you on the lawn 
your hands are on your hips
looking like maybelle starr
looking like a kiss on the lips 
maybe i should get away
just get back in my car
oh, but i never do 
i just tell myself 
if that’s the worst of it
if that’s the whole thing
then maybe you and i can hang on
if i could offer you
just one thing 
it’d be a hand to hold all along 
right through the night 
and into the dawn 
i’ve been thinking over it
i’ve been combing through the dark
looking round with my hands 
looking for a place to park 
standing underneath the moon
i can see into your heart
oh and then there we are
searching for ourselves 
if that’s the worst of it
if that’s the whole thing
then maybe you and i can hang on
if i could offer you
just one thing 
it’d be a hand to hold all along 
right through the night 
and into the dawn 
if that’s the worst of it
if that’s the whole thing
then maybe you and i can hang on
if i could offer you
just one thing 
it’d be a hand to hold all along 
right through the night 
and into the dawn 
until the morning light
has come and gone

First Thessalonians Chapter Four


1    FURTHERMORE then we beseech you, brethren, and exhort you by the Lord Jesus, that as ye have
    received of us how ye ought to walk and to please God, so ye would abound more and more.

2    For ye know what commandments we gave you by the Lord Jesus.

3    For this is the will of God, even your sanctification, that ye should abstain from fornication: 

4    That every one of you should know how to possess his vessel in sanctification and honour;

5    Not in the lust of concupiscence, even as the Gentiles which know not God:

6    That no man go beyond and defraud his brother in any matter:  because that the Lord is the avenger
    of all such, as we also have forewarned you and testified.

7    For God hath not called us unto uncleanness, but unto holiness.

8    He therefore that despiseth, despiseth not man, but God, who hath also given unto us his holy Spirit.

9    But as touching brotherly love ye need not that I write unto you:  for ye yourselves are taught of God
    to love one another.

10    And indeed ye do it toward all the brethren which are in all Macedonia:  but we beseech you, brethren,
    that ye increase more and more;

11    And that ye study to be quiet, and to do your own business, and to work with your own hands, as we
    commanded you;

12    That ye may walk honestly toward them that are without, and that ye may have lack of nothing.

13    But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep, that ye sorrow not,
    even as others with have not hope

14    For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him.

15    For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord
    shall not prevent them which are asleep.

16    For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the
    trump of God:  and the dead in Christ shall rise first:

17    Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord
    in the air:  and so shall we ever be with the Lord.

18    Wherefore comfort one another with these words.

AFI (AFIREINSIDE) - The Boy Who Destroyed The World

 AFI - The Boy Who Destroyed The World

Once there was a boy who had a vibrant glow
But as it goes, someone took it from him
One day through the rain, I heard him meekly moan
He said, will you wrap your arms around me?
 

As I'm falling
 

Remember when, remember when?
Remember when we were all so beautiful?
Never again, never again
But since then we've lost our glow
 

They said it hurt their eyes, but he would never know
That they were filled with regret as their own dissipated
He said, I now feel more desperately alone
Even though they wrapped their arms around me
 

As I'd fallen
 

Remember when, remember when?
Remember when we were all so beautiful?
Never again, never again
But since then we've lost our glow
 

Remember when, remember when?
Remember when we were all so beautiful?
Never again, never again
But since then we've lost our glow
 

They said it hurt their eyes
But he would never know
That they were claiming regret (as their)
As their own (as they)
As they dissipated (as they)
As they dissipated (as they)
As they dissipated

Blue October - Sound of Pulling Heaven Down

Blue October - Sound of Pulling Heaven Down 

Somewhere, far away from here
I saw stars, stars that I could reach (yeah)
It was a midnight, a silent twilight
Fell down, beyond the ocean beach (yeah)

I assemble all the sand that cover wedding beaches
To build a castle so your mom would have a place to stay
Behind the water slide and down the hill where heaven reaches
Land and time is left to float away (yeah)

So rest assured I have the key to every opening
To every wishing well deep that's enough to drink (drink)
I want to show you just how fascinating kissing is
When earth collides with all the space between (yeah)

I'm reaching farther than I ever have before
Leaving all who broke your heart upon the shore
I may be some sort of crazy
We may be some sort of crazy
But I swear on everything I have and more

So never look behind, there's spooky people breathing down
The world is ending there's a party by the bay
I'll wear my suit and tie, would I and I toss into
The way you put that smile upon my face (yeah)

Fill up the air balloon and ride with me
Yeah hell is just a parade (parade)
Make love like time and space Is ending
While befriending fade while luring way of putting us to shame

I'm reaching farther than I ever have before
Leaving all who broke your heart upon the shore
I may be some sort of crazy
We may be some sort of crazy
But I swear on everything I have and more

You make the sound of pulling heaven down
You brought the rain's romantic pour
You make the sound
You make the sound
Of pulling heaven down

I'm reaching farther than I ever have before
(god I've reached the top)
Leaving all who broke your heart upon the shore
I may be some sort of crazy
We may be some sort of crazy
But I swear on everything I have and more
(go go go go)

I'm reaching farther than I ever have before
(god I've reached the top)
Leaving all who broke your heart upon the shore
I may be some sort of crazy
We may be some sort of crazy
But I swear on everything I have and more
(go go go go)

First Peter Chapter Three

1    LIKEWISE, ye wives, be in subjection to your own husbands;  that, if any obey not the word, they also may
    without the word be won by the conversation of the wives;

2    While they behold your chaste conversation coupled with fear.

3    Whose adorning let it not be that outward adorning of plaiting the hair, and of wearing of gold, or of
    putting on of apparel;

4    But let it be the hidden man of the heart, in that which is not corruptible, even the ornament of a meek
    and quiet spirit, which is in the sight of God of great price.

5    For after this manner in the old time the holy women also, who trusted in God, adorned themselves, being
    in subjection unto their own husbands:

6    Even as Sara obeyed Abraham, calling him lord:  whose daughters ye are, as long as ye do well, and are
    not afraid with any amazement.

7    Likewise, ye husbands, dwell with them according to knowledge, giving honour unto the wife, as unto the
    weaker vessel, and as being heirs together of the grace of life;  that your prayers be not hindered.

8    Finally, be ye all of one mind, having compassion one of another, love as brethren, be pitiful, be courteous:

9    Not rendering evil for evil, or railing for railing:  but contrariwise blessing;  knowing that ye are thereunto
    called, that ye should inherit a blessing.

10    For he that will love life, and see good days, let him refrain his tongue from evil, and his lips that they 
    speak no guile:

11    Let him eschew evil, and do good;  let him seek peace, and ensue it.

12    For the eyes of the Lord are over the righteous, and his ears are open unto their prayers:  but the face
    of the Lord is against them that do evil.

13    And who is he that will harm you, if ye be followers of that which is good?

14    But and if ye suffer for righteousness' sake, happy are ye:  and be not afraid of their terror, neither be troubled;

15    But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts:  and be ready always to give an answer to every man that asketh you
    a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear:

16    Having a good conscience;  that, whereas they speak evil of you, as of evildoers, they may be ashamed that
    falsely accuse your good conversation in Christ.

17    For it is better, if the will of God be so, that ye suffer for well doing, than for evil doing.

18    For Christ also hath once suffered for sins, the just for the unjust, that he might bring us to God, being put
    to death in the flesh, but quickened by the Spirit:

19    By which also he went and preached unto the spirits in prison;

20    Which sometime were disobedient, when once the longsuffering of God waited in the days of Noah, while the
    ark was a preparing, wherein few, that is, eight souls were saved by water.

21    The like figure whereunto even baptism doth also now save us (not the putting away of the filth of the flesh,
    but the answer of a good conscience toward God,) but the resurrection of Jesus Christ:

22    Who is gone into heaven, and is on the right hand of God;  angels and authorities and powers being made 
    subject unto him.

    First Peter Chapter Three - KJV

Jonah Chapter Three

1    AND the word of the LORD came unto Jonah the second time, saying, 

2    Arise, go unto Nineveh, that great city, and preach unto it the preaching that I bid thee.

3    So Jonah arose, and went unto Nineveh, according to the word of the LORD.  Now Nineveh was an exceeding great
    city of three day's journey.

4    And Jonah began to enter into the city a day's journey, and he cried, and said, Yet forty days, and Nineveh shall
    be overthrown.


5    So the people of Nineveh believed God, and proclaimed a fast, and put on sackcloth, from the greatest of them
    even to the least of them.

6    For word came unto the king of Nineveh, and he arose from his throne, and he laid his robe from him, and covered
    him with sackcloth, and sat in ashes.

7    And he caused it to be proclaimed and published through Nineveh by the decree of the king and his nobles,
    saying, Let neither man nor beast, herd nor flock, taste anything:  let them not feed, nor drink water:

8    But let man and beast be covered with sackcloth, and cry mightily unto God:  yea, let them turn every one
    from his evil way, and from the violence that is in their hands.  

9    Who can tell if God will turn and repent, and turn away from his fierce anger, that we perish not?

10    And God saw their works, that they turned from their evil way;  and God repented of the evil, that he had said 
    that he would do unto them;  and he did it not.
