Zechariah Chapter Nine

1    THE burden of the word of the LORD in the land of Hadrach, and Damascus shall be the rest thereof:
    when the eyes of man, as of all the tribes of Israel, shall be toward the LORD.

2    And Hamath also shall border thereby;  Tyrus, and Zidon, though it be very wise.

3    And Tyrus did build herself a strong hold, and heaped up silver as the dust, and fine gold as the mire of the streets.

4    Behold, the Lord will cast her out, and he will smite her power in the sea;  and she shall be devoured with fire.

5    Ashkelon shall see it, and fear;  Gaza also shall see it, and be very sorrowful, and Ekron;  for her expectation
    shall be ashamed;  and the king shall perish from Gaza, and Ashkelon shall not be inhabited.

6    And a bastard shall dwell in Ashdod, and I will cut off the pride of the Philistines.

7    And I will take away his blood out of his mouth, and his abominations from between his teeth:  but he that 
    remaineth, even he, shall be for our God, and he shall be as a governor in Judah, and Ekron as a Jebusite.

8    And I will encamp about mine house because of the army, because of him that passeth by, and because of him
    that returneth:  and no oppressor shall pass through them any more:  for now have I seen with mine eyes.

9    Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion;  shout, O daughter of Jerusalem:  behold, thy King cometh unto thee:  he is
    just, and having salvation;  lowly, and riding upon an ass, and upon a colt the foal of an ass.

10    And I will cut off the chariot from Ephraim, and the horse from Jerusalem, and the battle bow shall be cut off:
    and he shall speak peace unto the heathen:  and his dominion shall be from sea even to sea, and from the
    river even to the ends of the earth.

11    As for thee also, by the blood of thy covenant I have sent forth thy prisoners out of the pit wherein is no water.

12    Turn you to the strong hold, ye prisoners of hope:  even to day do I declare that I will render double unto thee;

13    When I have bent Judah for me, filled the bow with Ephraim, and raised up thy sons, O Zion, against thy
    sons, O Greece, and made thee as the sword of a mighty man.

14    And the LORD shall be seen over them, and his arrow shall go forth as the lightning:  and the Lord GOD shall
    blow the trumpet, and shall go with whirlwinds of the south.

15    The LORD of hosts shall defend them;  and they shall devour, and subdue with sling stones;  and they shall
    drink, and make a noise as through wine;  and they shall be filled like bowls, and as the corners of the altar.

16    And the LORD their God shall save them in that day as the flock of his people:  for they shall be as the stones
    of a crown, lifted up as an ensign upon his land.

17    For how great is his goodness, and how great is his beauty!  corn shall make the young men cheerful, and
    new wine the maids.

Matt Maeson - A Memory Away

 Matt Maeson - A Memory Away

Here's to the good times, here's to the bad
Here's to my baby, here's to the moments we collect
Here's to the failures, tears that we've kept
Here's to the chaos, here's to the every fearful step


Baby, that's love
Give what you can, but you can't give enough
Love is a game that can never be won
And babe, I'm a loser, calling your bluff


Watching the nighttime turn into day
Baby, it's okay if we both end up afraid
Watching the days turn to decades
Every moment's just a memory away


Baby, that's love
Give what you can, but you can't give enough
Love is a game that can never be won
And babe, I'm a loser, calling your bluff


Baby, that's love
Give what you can, but you can't give enough
Love is a game that can never be won
And babe, I'm a loser, calling your bluff


How can something so good be something so broken?
How can something so good be something so bad?
How can something so good be something so broken?
How can something so good be something so bad?


Baby, that's love
Give what you can, but you can't give enough
Love is a game that can never be won
And babe, I'm a loser, calling your bluff


Baby, that's love
Give what you can, but you can't give enough
Love is a game that can never be won
And babe, I'm a loser, calling your bluff


Baby, that's love
Give what you can, but you can't give enough
Love is a game that can never be won
And babe, I'm a loser, calling your bluff

Michelle Branch - Everywhere

 Michelle Branch - Everywhere

Turn it inside out so I can see
The part of you that's driftin' over me
And when I wake you're, you're never there
And when I sleep you're, you're everywhere
You're everywhere

Just tell me how I got this far
Just tell me why you're here and who you are
'Cause every time I look, you're never there
And every time I sleep, you're always there

'Cause you're everywhere to me
And when I close my eyes, it's you I see
You're everything I know that makes me believe
I'm not alone
I'm not alone

I recognize the way you make me feel
It's hard to think that you might not be real
I sense it now, the water's getting deep
I try to wash the pain away from me
Away from me

'Cause you're everywhere to me
And when I close my eyes, it's you I see
You're everything I know that makes me believe
I'm not alone
I'm not alone
I'm not alone
Oh, whoa, oh

When I touch your hand
It's then I understand
The beauty that's within
It's now that we begin
You always light my way
I hope there never comes a day
No matter where I go
I always feel you so

'Cause you're everywhere to me
And when I close my eyes, it's you I see
You're everything I know that makes me believe
I'm not alone
'Cause you're everywhere to me
And when I catch my breath, it's you I breathe
You're everything I know that makes me believe
I'm not alone

You're in everyone I see
So tell me
Do you see me?

Pete Yorn - Life On A Chain 

 I live on a chain
And you share the same last name
As a joke, I sent a bottle of whiskey
As you choked, you said it made you feel dirty
And I was waiting over here for life to begin
Was looking for the new thing
And you were the sunshine heading my frontline
I was alone, you were just around the corner from me
Time alone is good, I spend my days in the city
Dirty neighborhood, you know you'll never convince me
So I sold the town away, I couldn't wait to forget you
Was killed in half a day, I had the time to regret you
And I was waiting over here for life to begin
Was looking for the new thing
And you were the sunshine heading my frontline
I was alone, you were just around the corner from me
Yeah
I, I'm still on the chain
And you, you have the same last name
As a joke, I sent a bottle of whiskey
As you choked, you said it made you feel dirty
Waiting over here for life to begin
Was looking for the new thing
And you were the sunshine heading my frontline
I was alone, you were just around the corner from me
Yeah
And you were the sunshine heading my frontline
Just around the corner from me, you were
And you were the sunshine heading my frontline
Just around the corner from me
Just around the corner from me

Got a little change in my pocket going jingle lingle ling
Want to call you on the telephone baby I give you a ring
But each time we talk I get the same old thing
Always no huggin no kissin until I get a wedding ring

John Butler Trio - Better Than

 John Butler Trio - Better Than

All you want is what you can't have it
If you just look around and you see you got magic
So just sit back, relax and enjoy your why you still have it
Don't look back and love me and only see tragic, be good
 

It can be better than that, let me get the better of you
What can be better than that, love's not about what's better than
You can be better than that, let me get the better of you
What can be better than that, love's not about what's better
 

All the time why you're lookin' away?
That all things you can do now
These things you can say or do the, the ones you're with
With whom you're spending the day
And with your gaze of tomorrow at come-on-and-be-good
 

You can be better than that, let me get the better of you
What can be better than that, love's not about what's better than
You can be better than that, let me get the better of you
What can be better than that, love's not about what's better
 

Oh, I know sometimes things can be hard
But you should know by now they come and they go
So why, oh why, do I look to the other side?
'Cause I know the grass is greener but just as I do know
 

Love's not about what's better than
 

All you want is what you can't have it if you
Just look around and you see you got magic
So just sit back, relax and enjoy your why you still have it
Don't look back and love me and only see tragic, be good
 

You can be better than that, let me get the better of you
What can be better than that, love's not about what's better than
You can be better than that, let me get the better of you
What can be better than that, love's not about what's better than
 

You can be better than that, let me get the better of you
What can be better than that, love's not about what's better than
You can be better than that, let me get the better of you
What can be better than that, love's not about what's better than


Rise Against - Make It Stop (September's Children)

 Rise Against - Make It Stop (September's Children)

Woah, woah
Bang, bang go the coffin nails, like a breath exhaled
Then gone forever
It seems like just yesterday, how did I miss the red flags raised?
Think back to the days we laughed
We braved these bitter storms together
Then brought to his knees he cried
But on his feet he died
What God would damn a heart?
And what God drove us apart?
What God could?
Make it stop
Let this end
Eighteen years pushed to the ledge
It's come to this
A weightless step
On the way down singing
Woah, woah
Bang, bang from the closet walls
The schoolhouse halls
The shotgun's loaded
Push me and I'll push back
I'm done asking, I demand
From a nation under God
I feel its love like a cattle prod
I'm born free, but still they hate
I'm born me, no I can't change
It's always darkest just before the dawn
So stay awake with me, let's prove them wrong
Make it stop
Let this end
Eighteen years pushed to the ledge
It's come to this
A weightless step
On the way down singing
Woah, woah
The cold river washed him away
But how could we forget?
The gatherings hold candles, but not their tongues
And too much blood has flown from the wrists
Of the children shamed for those they chose to kiss
Who will rise to stop the blood?
We're calling for
Insisting on, a different beat, yeah
A brand new song
Whoa, whoa
A brand new song
Make it stop
Let this end
This life chose me, I'm not lost in sin
And proud I stand of who I am
I plan to go on living
Make it stop
Let this end
All these years pushed to the ledge
But proud I stand, of who I am
I plan to go on living

Galatians Chapter Six

1    BRETHREN, if a man be overtaken in a fault, ye which are spiritual, restore such an one in the spirit
    of meekness;  considering thyself, lest thou also be tempted.

2    Bear ye one another's burdens, and so fulfil the law of Christ.

3    For if a man think himself to be something, when he is nothing, he deceiveth himself.

4    But let every man prove his own work, and then shall he have rejoicing in himself alone, and not in another.

5    For every man shall bear his own burden.

6    Let him that is taught in the word communicate unto him that teacheth in all good things.

7    Be not deceived;  God is not mocked:  for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.

8    For he that soweth to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption;  but he that soweth to the Spirit shall of
    the Spirit reap life everlasting.

9    And let us not be weary in well doing:  for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.

10    As we have therefore opportunity, let us do good unto all men, especially unto them who are of the household of faith.

11    Ye see how large a letter I have written unto you with mine own hand.

12    As man as desire to make a fair shew in the flesh, they constrain you to be circumcised;  only lest they should
    suffer persecution for the cross of Christ.

13    For neither they themselves who are circumcised keep the law;  but desire to have you circumcised, that they
    may glory in your flesh.

14    But God forbid that I should glory, save in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom the world is crucified
    unto me, and I unto the world.

15    For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision, but a new creature.

16    And as many as walk according to this rule, peace be on them, and mercy, and upon the Israel of God.

17    From henceforth let no man trouble me:  for I bear in my body the marks of the Lord Jesus.

18    Brethren, the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit.  Amen.

 

     Galatians Chapter Six - KJV 

Zechariah Chapter Eight

1    AGAIN the word of the LORD of hosts came to me, saying,

2    Thus saith the LORD of hosts;  I was jealous for Zion with great jealousy and I was jealous for her
    with great fury.

3    Thus saith the LORD;  I am returned unto Zion, and will dwell in the midst of Jerusalem:  and Jerusalem
    shall be called a city of truth;  and the mountain of the LORD of hosts the holy mountain.

4    Thus saith the LORD of hosts;  there shall yet old men and old women dwell in the streets of Jerusalem,
    and every man with his staff in his hand for very age.

5    And the streets of the city shall be full of boys and girls playing in the streets thereof,

6    Thus saith the LORD of hosts;  If it be marvellous in the eyes of the remnant of this people in these days,
    should it also be marvellous in mine eyes?  saith the LORD of hosts.

7    Thus saith the LORD of hosts;  Behold, I will save my people from the east country, and from the west country;

8    And I will bring them, and they shall dwell in the midst of Jerusalem:  and they shall be my people, and I will
    be their God, in truth and in righteousness.

9    Thus saith the LORD of hosts;  Let your hands be strong, ye that hear in these days these words by the
    mouth of the prophets, which were in the day that the foundation of the house of the LORD of hosts was laid,
    that the temple might be built.

10    For before these days there was no hire for man, nor any hire for beast;  neither was there any peace to him
    that went out or came in because of the affliction:  for I set all men every one against his neighbour.

11    But now I will not be unto the residue of this people as in the former days, saith the LORD of hosts.

12    For the seed shall be prosperous;  the vine shall give her fruit, and the ground shall give her increase, and the
    heavens shall give their dew;  and I will cause the remnant of this people to possess all these things.

13    And it shall come to pass that as ye were a curse among the heathen, O house of Judah, and house of Israel;
    so will I save you, and ye shall be a blessing:  fear not, but let your hands be strong.

14    For thus saith the LORD of hosts;  As I thought to punish you, when your fathers provoked me to wrath, 
    saith the LORD of hosts and I repented not:

15    So again have I thought in these days to do well unto Jerusalem and to the house of Judah:  fear ye not.

16    These are the things that ye shall do;  Speak ye every man the truth to his neighbour;  execute the judgment
    of truth and peace in your gates:

17    And let none of you imagine evil in your hearts against his neighbour;  and love no false    oath:  for all these are
    things that I hate, saith the LORD.

18    And the word of the LORD of hosts came unto me, saying,

19    Thus saith the LORD of hosts;  The fast of the fourth month, and the fast of the fifth, and the fast of the seventh,
    and the fast of the tenth, shall be to the house of Judah joy and gladness, and cheerful feasts;  therefore love
    the truth and peace.

20    Thus saith the LORD of hosts;  It shall yet come to pass, that there shall come people, and the inhabitants 
    of many cities:

21    And the inhabitants of one city shall go to another, saying, Let us go speedily to pray before the LORD, and to
    seek the LORD of hosts:  I will go also.

22    Yea, many people and strong nations shall come to seek the LORD of hosts in Jerusalem, and to pray
    before the LORD.

23    Thus saith the LORD of hosts;  In those days it shall come to pass, that ten men shall take hold out of all
    languages of the nations, even shall take hold of the skirt of him that is a Jew, saying, We will go with you:
    for we have heard that God is with you.


    Zechariah Chapter Eight - KJV

Jude

1    JUDE, the servant of Jesus Christ, and brother of James, to them that are sanctified by God the Father,
    and preserved in Jesus Christ, and called.

2    Mercy unto you, and peace, and love, be multiplied.

3    Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write unto you of the common salvation, it was needful for me to write
    unto you, and exhort you that ye should earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints.

4    For there are certain men crept in unawares, who were before of old ordained to this condemnation, ungodly men, 
    turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness, and denying the only Lord God, and our Lord Jesus Christ.

5    I will therefore put you in remembrance, though ye once knew this, how that the Lord, having saved the people
    out of the land of Egypt, afterward destroyed them that believed not.

6    And the angles which kept not their first estate, but left their own habitation, he hath reserved in everlasting
    chains under darkness unto the judgment of the great day.

7    Even as Sodom and Gomorrha, and the cities about them in like manner, giving themselves over to fornication,
    and going after strange flesh, are set forth for an example, suffering the vengeance of eternal fire.

8    Likewise also these filthy dreamers defile the flesh, despise dominion, and speak evil of dignities.

9    Yet Michael the archangel, when contending with the devil he disputed about the body of Moses, durst not
    bring against him a railing accusation, but said, The Lord rebuke thee.

10    But these speak evil of those things which they know not:  but what they know naturally, as brute beasts,
    in those things they corrupt themselves.

11    Woe unto them!  for they have gone in the way of Cain, and ran greedily after the error of Balaam for reward,
    and perished in the gainsaying of Core.

12    These are spots in your feasts of charity, when they feast with you, feeding themselves without fear:  clouds they are
    without water, carried about of winds;  trees whose fruit withereth, without fruit, twice dead, plucked up by the roots;

13    Raging waves of the sea, foaming out their own shame;  wandering stars, to whom is reserved the blackness
    of darkness for ever.

14    And Enoch also, the seventh from Adam, prophesied of these, saying, Behold, the Lord cometh with ten thousands
    of his saints,

15    To execute judgment upon all, and to convince all that are ungodly among them of all their ungodly deeds which
    they have ungodly committed, and of all their hard speeches which ungodly sinners have spoken against him.

16    These are murmurers, complainers, walking after their own lusts;  and their mouth speaketh great swelling
    words, having men's persons in admiration because of advantage.

17    But, beloved, remember ye the words which were spoken before of the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ;

18    How that they told you there should be mockers in the last time, who should walk after their own ungodly lusts.

19    These be they who separate themselves, sensual, having not the Spirit.

20    But ye, beloved, building up yourselves on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Ghost,

21    Keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life.

22    And of some have compassion, making a difference:

23    And others save with fear, pulling them out of the fire;  hating even the garment spotted by the flesh.

24    Now unto him that is able to keep you from falling, and to present you faultless before the presence of his glory
    with exceeding joy,

25    To the only wise God our Saviour, be glory and majesty, dominion and power, both now and ever.  Amen.

Evanescence - Who Will You Follow

 Evanescence - Who Will You Follow

 [Chorus]
What have you done to me?
You drain the life out of me ’til I don’t know myself
When all your faith in reality fades away
Who will you follow?

[Verse 1]
Are we alone now?
I can’t find the way out
I keep waking in the same fever dream
A cure for desire
We’re playing with fire
Withdrawn the light
We’re broken and blind and burning
We’re dying for release
If all this fear was born in my mind
I gave you everything you’ll ever be

[Chorus]
What have you donе to me?
You drain the life out of mе ’til I don’t know myself
When all your faith in reality fades away
Who will you follow then?

[Verse 2]
I feel the changes are cracking the Matrix
Break through the lies like an axe through the screen
You can’t stop desire (Can’t stop desire)
Queen of the fire (Fire)
Wake up to the madness, the wrecks in the world
Are already coming through
Lift this twisted veil from our eyes forever and ever


[Chorus]
What have you done to me?
You drain the life out of me ’til I don’t know myself
When all your faith in reality fades away
Who will you follow then?[Bridge]
Ah, ah-ah-ah
Ah, ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah, ah-ah-ah
Ah, ah-ah-ah

[Chorus]
What have you done to me?
You drain the life out of me ’til I don’t know myself
When all your faith in reality fades away, ah-oh-oh-oh
Who will you follow? (Ooh)

Zechariah Chapter Seven

1    AND it came to pass in the fourth year of king Darius, that the word of the LORD came unto Zechariah
    in the fourth day of the ninth month, even in Chisleu;

2    When they had sent unto the house of God Sherezer and Regemmelech, and their men, to pray before the LORD.

3    And to speak unto the priests which were in the house of the LORD of hosts, and to the prophets, saying,
    Should I weep in the fifth month, separating myself, as I have done these so many years?

4    Then came the word of the LORD of hosts unto me, saying.

5    Speak unto all the people of the land, and to the priests, saying, When ye fasted and mourned in the fifth
    and seven month, even those seventy years, did ye at all fast unto me, even to me?

6    And when ye did eat, and when ye did drink, did not ye eat for yourselves, and drink for yourselves?

7    Should ye not hear the words which the LORD hath cried by the former prophets, when Jerusalem was
    inhabited and in prosperity, and the cities thereof round about her, when men inhabited the south and the plain?

8    And the word of the LORD came unto Zechariah, saying,

9    Thus speaketh the LORD of hosts, saying, execute true judgment, and shew mercy and compassions every
    man to his brother:

10    And oppress not the widow, nor the fatherless, the stranger, nor the poor;  and let none of you imagine evil
    against his brother in your heart.

11    But they refused to hearken, and pulled away the shoulder, and stopped their ears, that they should not hear.

12    Yea, they made their hearts as an adamant stone, lest they should hear the law, and the words which the LORD
    of hosts hath sent in his spirit by the former prophets:  therefore came a great wrath from the LORD of hosts.

13    Therefore it is come to pass, that as he cried, and they would not hear;  so they cried, and I would not hear, 
    saith the LORD of hosts.

14    But I scattered them with a whirlwind among all the nations whom they knew not.  Thus the land was desolate
    after them, that no man passed through nor returned:  for they laid the pleasant land desolate.

Of Monsters and Men - Wild Roses (live on Jimmy Kimmel Live 2019)

 Of Monsters and Men - Wild Roses

Wild roses on a bed of leaves 
In the month of May
I think I wrote my own pain
Oh don’t you

Down by the creek I couldn’t sleep
So I followed a feeling
Sounds like the vines they are breathing
I’ve seen the way the seasons change
When I just give it time
But I feel out of my mind
All the time

In the night I am wild-eyed
And you got me now

Oh roses they don’t mean a thing 
You don’t understand
But why don’t we full on pretend 
Oh won’t you
Before I closed my eyes I saw a moth in the sky
And I wish I could fly that high
Oh don’t you

A serpent on a bed of leaves
In the month of May 
What do you want me to say
That you keep me still 
When all I feel is an aimless direction
When I think I’m losing connection
I see you

In the night I am wild-eyed
And you got me now
Dim the lights, we are wild-eyed
And you got me now
Oh roses they don’t mean a thing 
You don’t understand
But why don’t we full on pretend 
Oh won’t you

Before I closed my eyes I saw a moth in the sky
And I wish I could fly that high
Oh don’t you

In the night we are wild-eyed
And you got me now
Dim the lights, we are wild-eyed
And you got me now

In the night I am wild-eyed
And you got me now

Death Cab for Cutie - Soul Meets Body

 Death Cab for Cutie - Soul Meets Body

I want to live where soul meets body
And let the sun wrap its arms around me, and
Bathe my skin in water cool and cleansing
And feel, feel what it's like to be new
'Cause in my head, there's a Greyhound station
Where I send my thoughts to far-off destinations
So, they may have a chance of finding a place where
They're far more suited than here
Ba-da ba-da-ba-ba
Ba-da ba-ba-ba-da-ba-ba
Ba-da ba-ba-ba-da-ba-ba-da-ba-da-ba
And I cannot guess what we'll discover
When we turn the dirt with our palms cupped like shovels
But I know our filthy hands can wash one another's
And not one speck will remain
And I do believe it's true
That there are roads left in both of our shoes
But if the silence takes you, then I hope it takes me too
So, Brown Eyes, I'll hold you near
'Cause you're the only song I want to hear
A melody softly soaring through my atmosphere
Where soul meets body
Where soul meets body
Where soul meets body
And I do believe it's true
That there are roads left in both of our shoes
But if the silence takes you, then I hope it takes me too
So, Brown Eyes, I'll hold you near
'Cause you're the only song I want to hear
A melody softly soaring through my atmosphere
A melody softly soaring through my atmosphere
A melody softly soaring through my atmosphere
A melody softly soaring through my atmosphere

Second Corinthians Chapter Thirteen


1    THIS is the third time I am coming to you.  In the mouth of two or three witnesses shall every word be established.

2    I told you before, and foretell you, as if I were present, the second time;  and being absent now I write to them which 
    heretofore have sinned, and to all other, that, if I come again, I will not spare:

3    Since ye seek a proof of Christ speaking in me, which to you-ward is not weak, but is mighty in you.

4    For though he was crucified through weakness, yet he liveth by the power of God.  For we also are weak in him, but we shall
    live with him by the power of God toward you.

5    Examine yourselves, whether ye be in the faith;  prove your own selves.  Know ye not your own selves, how that Jesus Christ is in you,
    except ye be reprobates?

6    But I trust that ye shall know that we are not reprobates.

7    Now I pray to God that ye do no evil;  not that we should appear approved, but that ye should do that which is honest, though
    we be as reprobates.

8    For we can do nothing against the truth, but for the truth.

9    For we are glad, when we are weak, and ye are strong:  and this also we wish, even your perfection.

10    Therefore I write these things being absent, lest being present I should use sharpness, according to the power which the Lord
    hath given me to edification, and not to destruction.

11    Finally, brethren, farewell.  Be perfect, be of good comfort, be of one mind, live in peace;  and the God of love and peace shall be with you.

12    Greet one another with an holy kiss.

13    All the saints salute you.

14    The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Ghost, be with you all.  Amen.

Bleachers - Rollercoaster

 Bleachers - Rollercoaster

It was summer when I saw your face
Looked like a teenage runaway
Oh god I never thought we'd take it that far
Some killer queen you are
Now I'm running and I can't stop anywhere I go
I think about it everyday and night I can't let go
Man, I'm never the same
We were shot gun lovers, I'm a shot gun running away
So come a little closer
There was something I can tell ya
It was such a rollercoaster
And a killer queen you are
Rollercoaster, I don't say no
Rollercoaster, when you don't say no
And it's such a rollercoaster
Some killer queen you are
We took the bones out from the road
Those endless nights that we traveled we stole
You let your clothes fall to the floor
And lit a fire while I waited for more
Now I'm running and I won't stop I don't wanna go
I think about it everyday and night I can't let go
And hey, I'm never the same
It's a hundred miles an hour on a dirt road running away
So come a little closer
There was something I can tell ya
It was such a rollercoaster
And a killer queen you are
Rollercoaster, I don't say no
Rollercoaster, when you don't say no
And it's such a rollercoaster
Some killer queen you are
Come a little closer
Why don't you come a little closer?
Why don't you come a little closer?
There was something I can tell ya
It was such a rollercoaster
And a killer queen you are
Rollercoaster, I don't say no
Rollercoaster, when you don't say no
And it's such a rollercoaster
Some killer queen you are
Rollercoaster, I don't say no
Rollercoaster, when you don't say no
And it's such a rollercoaster
Some killer queen you are

Dave Matthews Band - Long Black Veil (live from New Jersey, 1999)

 Dave Matthews Band - Long Black Veil

 [Verse 1]
Ten years ago on a cold dark night
Someone was killed 'neath the town hall light
There were few at the scene but they all agreed
That the slayer who ran looked a lot like me

[Chorus]
She walks these hills in a long black veil
She visits my grave when the night winds wail
Nobody knows, nobody sees
Nobody knows but me

[Verse 2]
The Judge said, "Son, what is your alibi?
If you were somewhere else, then you won't have to die"
I spoke not a word, though it meant my life
For I'd been in the arms of my best friend's wife

[Verse 3]
Now the scaffold is high, and eternity's near
She stood in the crowd but she shed not a tear
But some times at night when the cold wind moans
In a long black veil, she cries o'er my bones

[Chorus]
She walks these hills in a long black veil
She visits my grave when the night winds wail
Nobody knows, nobody sees
Nobody knows but me

[Outro]
Nobody knows, nobody sees
Nobody knows but me

Noel Gallagher - Don't Look Back in Anger (acoustic on the Howard Stern Show 1997)

Noel Gallagher - Don't Look Back in Anger 

 [Verse 1]
Slip inside the eye of your mind
Don't you know you might find
A better place to play?
You said that you'd never been
But all the things that you've seen
Slowly fade away

[Pre-Chorus]
So I start a revolution from my bed
'Cause you said the brains I had went to my head
Step outside, summertime's in bloom
Stand up beside the fireplace, take that look from off your face
You ain't ever gonna burn my heart out

[Chorus]
And so, Sally can wait
She knows it's too late as we're walkin' on by
Her soul slides away
But "Don't look back in anger," I heard you say

[Verse 2]
Take me to the place where you go
Where nobody knows if it's night or day
Please don't put your life in the hands
Of a rock 'n' roll band
Who'll throw it all away

[Pre-Chorus]
I'm gonna start a revolution from my bed
'Cause you said the brains I had went to my head
Step outside, 'cause summertime's in bloom
Stand up beside the fireplace, take that look from off your face
don't look back in anger,oasis don't look back in anger lyrics,
don't look back in anger lyrics,don't look back in anger oasis,
don't look back in anger don't look back in anger lyrics,
don't look back in anger tiktok,oasis don't look back in anger,
'Cause you ain't ever gonna burn my heart out

[Chorus]
And so, Sally can wait
She knows it's too late as she's walking on by
My soul slides away
But "Don't look back in anger," I heard you say

[Chorus]
So, Sally can wait
She knows it's too late as we're walking on by
Her soul slides away
But "Don't look back in anger," I heard you say

[Outro]
So, Sally can wait
She knows it's too late as she's walking on by
My soul slides away
But "Don't look back in anger, don't look back in anger"
I heard you say
"At least not today"

Zechariah Chapter Six

1    AND I turned, and lifted up mine eyes, and looked, and, behold, there came four chariots out from between
    two mountains;  and the mountains were mountains of brass.

2    In the first chariot were red horses;  and in the second chariot black horses;

3    And in the third chariot white horses;  and in the fourth chariot grisled and bay horses.

4    Then I answered and said unto the angel that talked with me, What are these, my lord?

5    And the angel answered and said unto me, These are the four spirits of the heavens, which go forth from 
    standing before the Lord of all the earth.

6    The black horses which are therein go forth into the north country;  and the white go forth after them;  and the
    grisled go forth toward the south country.

7    And the bay went forth, and sought to go that they might walk to and fro through the earth: and he said,
    Get you hence, walk to and fro through the earth.  So they walked to and fro through the earth.

8    Then cried he upon me, and spake unto me, saying, Behold, these that go toward the north country have quieted
    my spirit in the north country.

9    And the word of the LORD came unto me saying,

10    Take of them of the captivity, even of Heldai, of Tobijah, and of Jedaiah, which are come from Babylon, and come
    thou the same day, and go into the house of Josiah the son of Zephaniah;

11    Then take silver and gold, and make crowns, and set them upon the head of Joshua the son of Josedech,
    the high priest;

12    And speak unto him, saying, Thus speaketh the LORD of hosts, saying, Behold the man whose name is
    The BRANCH;  and he shall grow up out of his place, and he shall build the temple of the LORD:

13    Even he shall build the temple of the LORD;  and he shall bear the glory, and shall sit and rule upon his 
    throne:  and the counsel of peace shall be between them both.

14    And the crowns shall be to Helem, and to Tobijah, and to Jedaiah, and to Hen the son of Zephaniah, for a
    memorial in the temple of the LORD.

15    And they that are far off shall come and build in the temple of the LORD, and ye shall know that the LORD
    of hosts hath sent me unto you.  And this shall come to pass, if ye will diligently obey the voice of the LORD
    your God.

Ryan Gosling, Mark Ronson, Slash & The Kens - I'm Just Ken (live from the 2024 Oscars)

 Ryan Gosling - I'm Just Ken

Doesn't seem to matter what I do
I'm always number two
No one knows how hard I tried, oh-oh, I
I have feelings that I can't explain
Drivin' me insane
All my life, been so polite
But I'll sleep alone tonight
'Cause I'm just Ken, anywhere else I'd be a ten
Is it my destiny to live and die a life of blonde fragility?
I'm just Ken
Where I see love, she sees a friend
What will it take for her to see the man behind the tan and fight for me?
I wanna know what's like to love, to be the real thing
Is it a crime? Am I not hot when I'm in my feelings?
And is my moment finally here, or am I dreaming?
I'm no dreamer
Can you feel the Kenergy?
Feels so real, my Kenergy
Can you feel the Kenergy?
Feels so real, my Kenergy
I'm just Ken, anywhere else I'd be a ten
Is it my destiny to live and die a life of blonde fragility?
I'm just Ken
Where I see love, she sees a friend
What will it take for her to see the man behind the tan and fight for me?
I'm just Ken (and I'm enough)
And I'm great at doing stuff
So, hey, check me out, yeah, I'm just Ken
My name's Ken (and so am I)
Put that manly hand in mine
So, hey, world, check me out, yeah, I'm just Ken
Baby, I'm just Ken (nobody else, nobody else)
