The Happy Fits - While You Fade Away
Verse 1:
Starin’ at the ground, gonna get much better,
But you’re thinkin to yourself bout it every day.
Starin’ in the clouds is a big bright future,
But you’re never gonna get it if you’re never get to say:
(I got that love. I got that love.)
Chorus:
I got that love, little love that you leave me while you fade away.
Inside my heart is a drum that is beating for you every single day.
Verse 2:
Bendin’ over backwards, nobody want no bruises,
But she knows how to see right through it.
You change but it’s not enough. You change but you’ll never know, what
She wants, what you want, what she needs, what you need, (you’ll never know);
She wants, what you want, what she needs, what you need, (you’ll never know);
She wants, what you need, and you need.
Chorus
Verse 3:
Rollin’, rollin’ through all of the noises
You make inside of your mind.
Forget all that visible lust, that metaphysical trust; what you trying find?
Always the hardest, and always the rightest, they all gotta stand for the same damn thing.
Chorus x2
Bridge:
You wanted that fever, oh now boy you got it.
So taste it, don’t waste it, all you thought wanted.
For your love I'm beggin' you please;
I got chains at your door and need a release.

The Happy Fits - While You Fade Away - 1/9/2018 - Paste Studios - New York - NY
Mt. Joy - God Loves Weirdos
Out here on this dream boat
Wonder when we're going home
Everywhere we go
It's the rodeo
Yes, fight, shame, drives you insane
Hold on now, 'cause we still got time, honey
It's 4 AM, and we're laughing in the gas station
You're calling my name, it's the sweetest thing
Holding up a t-shirt says, "God Loves Weirdos"
And damn, I'm still in love with you
Out here in this strange world
I'm right where my dreams were
Everywhere we go
It's the rodeo
This world looks insane as it circles the drain, but
Hold on now, 'cause we still got time, honey
It's 4 AM, and we're laughing in the gas station
You're calling my name, it's the sweetest thing
Holding up a t-shirt says, "God Loves Weirdos"
And damn, I'm still in love with you
The All - American Rejects - Green Isn't Yellow
The All - American Rejects - Green Isn't Yellow
Barefoot in the pastures of my childhood homestead
Rocks through yonder broken windows
Screaming lullabies for little guys in bunk beds
And the cottonwoods in summer are falling like snow
Many moons ago
Dirt roads and a six-pack
Sleeping on the floorboards
Daddy always liked to drive
Hope he's coming home tonight
School bus kicking dust out on some rural route to Nowhere, USA
Twelve-year old me in the back bench
Just learning how to pray
I once heard someone say
"Green isn't yellow
So, go ahead or run away
Sometimes, just a little blue will get you brave."
Four dollars in quarters from some laundry lottery
A pack of Bubblicious and a Playboy magazine
July 1996, Jenny McCarthy
A rope swing and a spillway swimming hole at Blackwell Lake
Iced tea in some dusty whisky bottle looks the same
A harvest moon and flowers bloom and Lindy was her name
And a cap and gown, then I left town, I'll always mark the day
I heard my old man say
"Green isn't yellow
So, go ahead or run away
Sometimes, just a little blue will get you brave."
Get you brave
Green isn't yellow
The Killers - Be Still -- Live at the 3arena in Dublin, Ireland (Night 1)
Be still
And go on to bed
Nobody knows what lies ahead
And life is short
To say the least
We're in the belly of the beast
Be still
Wild and young
Long may your innocence reign
Like shells on the shore
And may your limits be unknown
And may your efforts be your own
If you ever feel you can't take it anymore
Don't break character
You've got a lot of heart
Is this real or just a dream?
Rise up like the sun
Labor till the work is done
Be still
One day you'll leave
Fearlessness on your sleeve
When you've come back, tell me what did you see
What did you see
Was there something out there for me?
Be still
Close your eyes
Soon enough you'll be on your own
Steady and straight
And if they drag you through the mud
It doesn't change what's in your blood
(Over chains)
When they knock you down
Don't break character
You've got a lot of heart
Is this real or just a dream?
Be still
Be still
Be still
Be still
Over rock and chain
Over sunset plain
Over trap and snare
When you're in too deep
In your wildest dream
In your made up scheme
When they knock you down
When they knock you down
Don't break character
You've got sooooo much heart
Is this real or just a dream?
Oh Rise up like the sun
And labor till the work is done
Rise up like the sun
Labor till the work is
Rise up like the sun
And labor till the work is done
Jimmy Eat World - Through
Royel Otis - Sweet Hallelujah
She’s so cool it blows my mind all the time
It tastes like pain
I was born a clown but now I’m known to cry
Some days change
Only fools say love is blind
Have you seen her face?
She’s so fine it blows my mind all the time
And shakes my brain
So many chances I give people
Well I fear the end will never go
I’ll let my guard down while on tour
But let the sunset burn inside of you
Will I ever lose you when I’m home
It’s always oh sweet hallelujah when I’m gone
Oh will I ever lose you when I’m home
It’s always sing sweet hallelujah when I’m gone
She’s so cruel it blows my mind all the time
It tastes like pain
I was born a clown but now I’m known to cry
Some days change
Only fools say love is blind
Have you seen her face?
She’s so fine it blows my mind all the time
And shakes my brain
Natalie Imbruglia - Upside Down
Natalie Imbruglia - Upside Down
I'm a mess, heavy on my chest
Making me obsessed, and I regress
This is all I've known, gravity takes hold
Drags me down like stones to darker tones
But I feel a little lighter on my toes
I can feel the rush of I don't know
Maybe now it's time to lose control
I think I found my upside down
Instead of circles making a pattern of hearts on the ground
Everything that I thought I had lost comes back around
(Dancing on the sky)
I think I found my upside down
Where there was nothing, now there's nothing but colour and sound
Everything comes alive and it feels like a melody high
(Dancing in the sky)
High, sky
It's so strange, trying to explain
There is no escape, my mind's a maze
So, I've got to run it all out, screaming into the trees
'Cause if you run it all out, 'til you're down on your knees
You'll let it go, let it go (ah-ah, oh-oh)
I think I found my upside down
Instead of circles making a pattern of hearts on the ground
Everything that I thought I had lost comes back around
(Dancing on the sky)
I think I found my upside down
Where there was nothing, now there's nothing but colour and sound
Everything comes alive and it feels like a melody high
(Dancing in the sky)
High, sky
But I feel a little lighter on my toes
I can feel the rush of I don't know
Maybe now it's time to lose control
I think I found my upside down
Instead of circles making a pattern of hearts on the ground
Everything that I thought I had lost comes back around
(Dancing on the sky)
I think I found my upside down
Where there was nothing, now there's nothing but colour and sound
Everything comes alive and it feels like a melody high
(Dancing in the sky)
High, sky
Leon Bridges - Beyond
Don't wanna get ahead of myself
Feeling things I've never felt
It's kinda hard for me to explain
Her personality and everything
Brings me to my knees, oh
She shines me up like gold on my arm
I wanna take it slow but it's so hard
I love to see her face in daylight
It's more than just our bodies at night
But she's really tempting me, oh
Do you think I'm being foolish if I don't rush in?
I'm scared to death that she might be it
That the love is real, that the shoe might fit
She might just be my everything and beyond (beyond)
Space and time in the afterlife
Will she have my kids? Will she be my wife?
She might just be my everything and beyond
I wanna bring her 'round to meet ya
I think you'd like her kind demeanor
I know that Grandma would've loved her, like she was her own
She makes me feel home, oh
Do you think I'm being foolish if I don't rush in?
I'm scared to death that she might be it
That the love is real, that the shoe might fit
She might just be my everything and beyond (beyond)
Space and time in the afterlife
Will she have my kids? Will she be my wife?
She might just be my everything and beyond
I give up, I'm in love crying out to you
Oh me oh my I can't explain
She might just be my everything
Oh me oh my I can't explain
She might just be my everything
Oh me oh my I can't explain
She might just be my everything
Do you think I'm being foolish if I don't rush in?
I'm scared to death that she might be it
That the love is real, that the shoe might fit
She might just be my everything and beyond (beyond)
Space and time in the afterlife
Will she have my kids? Will she be my wife?
She might just be my everything and beyond, yeah
Oh me oh my I can't explain
She might just be my everything
Oh me oh my I can't explain
She might just be my everything
Oh me oh my I can't explain
She might just be my everything
She might just be mine, be mine
Florentenes - A Step In The Right Direction
Florentenes - A Step In The Right Direction
You say it's not a fuss for me to fool around,
If there's much more profound to say,
Should I have said it by now?
Take my mind, take my words, don't misbelieve me, let the blind lead the blind.
Take a step in the right direction, take this and fall from the sky.
I say you're not to trust and grinned a leery smile,
I look up and see the rain clouds ahead and see you coming in style.
Take my mind, take my words, don't misbelieve me, let the blind lead the blind.
Take a step in the right direction, take this and fall from the sky.
Who prays for the devils lifetimes?
Who keeps the sinners in their confines?

But surely does not forget (perish),
Sleep, cannot be photographed (measured);
Disdains the trivial labeling of punctual brains
But surely does not forget (perish),
Sleep, cannot be photographed (measured);
Disdains the trivial labeling of punctual brains
Why its love;
But at the earliest spear
Of sun
Perfectly should disappear

Pierce The Veil - Death of an Executioner
Headlights on your back tonight
Kill the weight now we’re fast and light
Please don’t cool my war machine
Performance high and deafening
Blood dries on the sparkling lead paint
Kill the competition
I bleed your fuel I’m siphoning
The soul left out I
Hold my breathe and drive
Staring at the sky
Luminous and bright
Running out of time
Blood red moonlight
Gaining till you’re over me
Beautiful as everything is crumbling
The flames dance off your eyes
Cigarettes on a dark, bent highway
Follow you from a distance like
Demons in a death machine
I feel your stomach tightening
Power lines from above see nothing
So, tell the world what I want I’m gonna get
I pray for bones to break and mirrors to shatter
Hold my breathe and drive
Staring at the sky
Luminous and bright
Running out of time
Blood red moonlight
Gaining till you’re over me
Beautiful as everything is crumbling
The flames dance off your eyes
Blood red moonlight
Gaining till you’re over me
Beautiful as everything is crumbling
The flames dance off your eyes
Blood red moonlight
Gaining till you’re over me
Beautiful as everything is crumbling
The flames dance off your eyes
Blood red moonlight
Pierce The Veil - Resilience (live in Edinburg)
When the wildfire is over
And everything is gone
Incinerate my tires while we race into the wide open
See, I don’t really wanna think about it
Or how it all went wrong
Houston, there’s a problem
Someone sucked out all the sun
But I’m
I’m better tonight
Don’t waste that hand
Non-operational for anything else
You’re jealous of my resilience
When the royal crown is gone
And everything is ours
Regenerate that kind of power
Reserved for the Marvel gods
See, I’ve been coming to the realization
That all you do is shine
Black lights to my problems
Swallow the dirt, you rotten swine
But I’m
I’m better tonight
Don’t waste that hand
Non-operational for anything else
You’re jealous of my resilience
And it’s odd that I’ve
Been running into spider webs at night
And it’s odd that I
Keep running into spider webs
Running into spider webs
At night
I’m better tonight
Don’t waste that hand
Non-operational for anything else
You’re jealous of my resilience
My resilience
My resilience
Modest Mouse - Third Side of the Moon
Modest Mouse - Third Side of the Moon
Am I the shade or a shadow well I can’t really tell
And I still cannot remember if your eyes were blue or green or brown
I wish I paid attention to every word that you ever said
But you always spoke in whisper and I wasn’t good at listening
Well I can’t remember if your eyes were blue or green or red
Well you always spoke in whisper. I ain’t so good at listening
Harsh words from my mother but it turned out they were nice
She said, “If you continue down this path your not the only one who dies”
A few weeks later I was told that you were gone
Well I still just can’t remember if your eyes were brown or green or blonde
I wish I paid attention to every word that you ever said,
but you spoke in a whisper and I’m not in your head
Well I can’t remember if your eyes were bleen or glue or red
but you always spoke in whisper and I ain’t so good at listening
A few days later they found you frozen in your car
Well the last time you were seen leaving the YMCA from the showers
Am I the shade or a shadow well I can’t really tell
And I still just can’t remember if your eyes were even there at all
Yeah things were shaky as I know they often are
But after 7 years together all I remember is the back of the police car
Well things get crazy shaky, sometimes way too f---ed up
If I’d been in my right mind I would’ve called the whole thing off
My heart pumped faster than could possibly be right
I read in a magazine the day before you only get so many thumps in your whole life
I can’t remember if your eyes were green or brown or red
cause you always spoke in a whisper and I ain’t so good at listening
Yeah you always spoke in whisper, I ain't so good at listening
No Doubt - Simple Kind of Life
No Doubt - Simple Kind of Life
For a long time I was in love
Not only in love, I was obsessed
With a friendship that no one else could touch
It didn't work out, I'm covered in shells
And all I wanted was the simple things
A simple kind of life
And all I needed was a simple man
So I could be a wife
I'm so ashamed, I've been so mean
I don't know how it got to this point
I always was the one with all the love
You came along, I'm hunting you down
Like a sick domestic abuser looking for a fight
And all I wanted was the simple things
A simple kind of life
If we met tomorrow for the very first time
Would it start all over again?
Would I try to make you mine?
I always thought I'd be a mom
Sometimes I wish for a mistake
The longer that I wait the more selfish that I get
You seem like you'd be a good dad
Now all those simple things are simply too complicated for my life
How'd I get so faithful to my freedom?
A selfish kind of life
When all I ever wanted was the simple things
A simple kind of life
Hollow Coves - Blessings
Hollow Coves - Blessings
Sunlight fell and reminded me that life can be so gracious sometimes
And I felt like everything around me was connected somehow
At night I hear the rhythm of the ocean as it breaks on the shore
And I think about all the things that I am grateful for
And they say
Hold on to the ones you love
Keep em’ close to you
And they say
Hold on to this time we have
And let the light shine through
Sometimes I get a little bit emotional when I see love unfold
Two hearts bound by reflections of the memories they’ll forever hold
And they say
Hold on to the ones you love
Keep em’ close to you
And they say
Hold on to this time we have
And let the light shine through
There are blessings all around you
Open up your eyes
Feel the sunlight fall upon you
Let it free your mind
There are blessings all around you
Take a step outside
Let your heart shine in a new light
See it come alive
And they say
Hold on to the ones you love
Keep em’ close to you
And they say
Hold on to this time we have
And let the light shine through

Billy Bragg · Wilco - Way Over Yonder In The Minor Key
Billy Bragg · Wilco - Way Over Yonder In The Minor Key
I lived in a place called Okfuskee
And I had a little girl in a holler tree
I said, "Little girl, it's plain to see
Ain't nobody that could sing like me
Ain't nobody that could sing like me"
She said, "It's hard for me to see
How one little boy got so ugly"
Yes, my little girly, that might be
But there ain't nobody that could sing like me
Ain't nobody that could sing like me
Way over yonder in the minor key
Way over yonder in the minor key
There ain't nobody that could sing like me
We walked down by the Buckeye Creek
To see the frog eat the goggle-eye bee
To hear that west wind whistle to the east
There ain't nobody that could sing like me
Ain't nobody that could sing like me
Oh, my little girly, will you let me see?
Way over yonder where the wind blows free
Nobody can see in our holler tree
And there ain't nobody that could sing like me
Ain't nobody that could sing like me
Way over yonder in the minor key
Way over yonder in the minor key
There ain't nobody that could sing like me
Her mama cut a switch from a cherry tree
And laid it on to she and me
It stung lots worse than a hive of bees
But there ain't nobody that could sing like me
Ain't nobody that could sing like me
Now I've walked a long, long ways
I still look back to my Tanglewood days
I've led lots of girls since then to stray
Saying ain't nobody that could sing like me
Ain't nobody that could sing like me
Way over yonder in the minor key
Way over yonder in the minor key
Ain't nobody that could sing like me
Way over yonder in the minor key
Way over yonder in the minor key
Ain't nobody that could sing like me
Ain't nobody that could sing like me

Jimmy Eat World - Surviving
Don’t hide your face
What you were before
Doesn’t have to be you
Anymore
Maybe you’ve been scared
And that’s what you know
All the shame
Going to call you home
It’s going to call you home
Never was your fault
But still a part to play
You carry it so close
You can read its name
In a lot of ways
You’re still that lost kid
You can still survive
But not exactly live
No, not exactly live
Going to stand this ground
Going say it loud
Never define yourself
By choices others make
If no one said it yet
It would be a shame
That ends right now
You’re not alone in pain
Never alone in pain
Dean Lewis - Looks Like Me
Verse
You’ve been working 10 hours
And your feet are still aching
You tell your friends to come over
To forget about your problems
You say you talked to somebody
He even looks like me
Oh baby why do you say things
That make me believe
Pre
That you’re sorry, you’re sorry
But you’re not sorry at all
I wonder how could it hurt you
You've got no feelings involved
And then I tell you want you
And you say nothing at all
You say nothing at all…
Chorus
Cause I need someone who loves me
And I know it don’t come easily
And maybe I’m just not good enough at all to feel your love
So how am I supposed to let go
When you won’t let me let go
And maybe I’m just not good enough at all to feel your love
Verse
And now I’m walking down sunset
With my feelings on repeat
I wonder what you been thinking?
Oh, are you thinking about me?
Pre
Then you say that you love me
But you don’t love me at all
I wonder how could it hurt you
You've got no feelings involved
And then I tell you want you
And you say nothing at all
And you say nothing at all…
Chorus
Cause I need someone who loves me
And I know it don’t come easily
And maybe I’m just not good enough at all to feel your love
So how am I supposed to let go
When you won’t let me let go
And maybe I’m just not good enough at all to feel your love
Bridge
You said, “Hey, I just wanna hear your voice”
I said, “Babe, you know that this was your choice”
You said, “Hey, I just wanna hear your voice”
I said, “Babe, you know that this was your choice”
But it means nothing at all…
Chorus
Cause I need someone who loves me
And I know it don’t come easily
And maybe I’m just not good enough at all to feel your love
So how am I supposed to let go
When you won’t let me let go
And maybe I’m just not good enough at all to feel your love
Outro
To feel your love
To feel your love
And maybe I’m just not good enough at all to feel your love
To feel your love
To feel your love
To feel your love
My Chemical Romance - Na Na Na (Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na) (Recorded For BBC Radio 1)
My Chemical Romance - Na Na Na
The future is bulletproof!
The aftermath is secondary
It's time to do it now and do it loud
Killjoys, make some noise!
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 na na na
Drugs, gimme drugs
Gimme drugs, I don't need it
But I'll sell what you got
Take the cash and I'll keep it
Eight legs to the wall
Hit the gas, (Kill em' all)
And we crawl, and we crawl, and we crawl
You be my detonator
Love, gimme love
Gimme love, I don't need it
But I'll take what I want from your heart
And I'll keep it in a bag, (In a box)
Put an "X" on the floor
Gimme more, gimme more, gimme more
Shut up and sing it with me
(Na, na na na, na na na) From mall security
(Na, na na na, na na na) To every enemy
(Na, na na na, na na na) We're on your property
Standing in V formation
(Na, na na na, na na na) Let's blow an artery
(Na, na na na, na na na) Eat plastic surgery
(Na, na na na, na na na) Keep your apology
Give us more detonation
More, gimme more, gimme more!
"Oh let me tell you 'bout the sad man"
Shut up and let me see your jazz hands
Remember when you were a mad man
Thought you was Batman
And hit the party with a gas can?
Kiss me, you animal!
(Na, na na na, na na na) You run the company
(Na, na na na, na na na) F--- like a Kennedy
(Na, na na na, na na na) I think we'd rather be
Burning your information
(Na, na na na, na na na) Let's blow an artery
(Na, na na na, na na na) Eat plastic surgery
(Na, na na na, na na na) Keep your apology
Give us more detonation
And right here, right now
All the way in Battery City
The little children raise their open filthy palms
Like tiny daggers up to heaven
And all the juvie halls
And the Ritalin rats
Ask angels made from neon and f---ing garbage
Scream out, "What will save us?"
And the sky opened up
Everybody wants to change the world
Everybody wants to change the world
But no one, no one wants to die
Wanna try, wanna try, wanna try
Wanna try, wanna try now
I'll be your detonator
(Na, na na na, na na na, na na na na)
(Na, na na na, na na na) Make no apology
(Na, na na na, na na na) It's death or victory
(Na, na na na, na na na) On my authority
Crash and burn, young and loaded
(Na, na na na, na na na) Drop like a bullet shell
(Na, na na na, na na na) Dress like a sleeper cell
(Na, na na na, na na na) I'd rather go to Hell
Than be in purgatory
Cut my hair, gag and bore me
Pull this pin, let this world explode

Thrice - To Awake and Avenge the Dead
Old friend, they told me you were dead
The news broadcast, The funeral
500 channels focus in
Your love was
Ravished, drawn, and quartered
The soil was swift to drink her blood
This violence in the name of love!
But I still feel you,
Despite your tombstone,
But I still feel you,
Despite your tombstone,
So friend you must still walk among us,
In places we don't dare to glance
I saw you killing Aristotle
But I know its all part of the plan.
Old friend, they told me you were dead
The news broadcast, The funeral
500 channels focus in
Your love was
Ravished, drawn, and quartered
The soil was swift to drink her blood
This violence in the name of love!
Old friend, they told me you were dead
The news broadcast, The funeral
500 channels focus in
Your love was
Ravished, drawn, and quartered
The soil was swift to drink her blood
This violence,
This violence,
This violence in the name of love!
To awake and avenge the dead,
To awake and avenge the dead,
To awake and avenge the dead.
4 Non Blondes - What's Up
[Verse 1]
Twenty-five years and my life is still
Tryin' to get up that great big hill of hope
For a destination
I realized quickly when I knew I should
That the world was made up of this brotherhood of man
For whatever that means
[Pre-Chorus]
And so I cry sometimes when I'm lying in bed
Just to get it all out what's in my head
And I, I am feeling a little peculiar
And so I wake in the morning and I step outside
And I take a deep breath and I get real high
And I scream from the top of my lungs
"What's going on?"
[Chorus]
And I say, hey-ey-ey
Hey-ey-ey
I said "Hey, a-what's going on?"
And I say, hey-ey-ey
Hey-ey-ey
I said "Hey, a-what's going on?"
[Bridge]
Ooh, ooh
Ooh
Ooh, uh huh
Ooh, ooh
Ooh
Ooh, uh huh
[Verse 2]
And I try
Oh my God, do I try
I try all the time
In this institution
And I pray
Oh my God, do I pray
I pray every single day
For revolution
[Pre-Chorus]
And so I cry sometimes when I'm lying in bed
Just to get it all out, what's in my head
And I, I am feeling a little peculiar
And so I wake in the morning and I step outside
And I take a deep breath and I get real high
And I scream from the top of my lungs
"What's going on?"
[Chorus]
And I say, hey-ey-ey
Hey-ey-ey
I said "Hey, what's going on?"
And I say, hey-ey-ey
Hey-ey-ey
I said "Hey, a-what's going on?"
And I say, hey-ey-ey
(Wake in the morning and step outside)
Hey-ey-ey
(Take a deep breath and I get real high)
(And I scream)
I said "Hey, a-what's going on?"
And I say, hey-ey-ey
(Wake in the morning and step outside)
Hey-ey, yeah yeah yeah
(Take a deep breath and I get real high)
(And I scream)
I said "Hey, a-what's going on?"
[Bridge]
Ooh, ooh
Ooh
Ooh, uh huh
[Outro]
Twenty-five years and my life is still
Tryin' to get up that great big hill of hope
For a destination, mmm
Three Days Grace - Home
[Verse 1]
I'll be coming home just to be alone
'Cause I know you're not there
And I know that you don't care
I can hardly wait to leave this place
[Chorus]
No matter how hard I try, you're never satisfied
This is not a home, I think I'm better off alone
You always disappear, even when you're here
This is not my home, I think I'm better off alone
[Post-Chorus]
Home, home, this house is not a
Home, home, this house is not a home
[Verse 2]
By the time you come home, I'm already stoned
You turn off the TV and you scream at me
I can hardly wait 'til you get off my case
[Chorus]
No matter how hard I try, you're never satisfied
This is not a home, I think I'm better off alone
You always disappear, even when you're here
This is not my home, I think I'm better off alone
[Post-Chorus]
Home, home, this house is not a
Home, home, this house is not a
Home, home, this house is not a
Home, home, this house is not a home
[Interlude]
I'm better off alone
[Chorus]
No matter how hard I try, you're never satisfied
This is not a home, I think I'm better off alone
You always disappear, even when you're here
This is not my home, I think I'm better off alone
[Post-Chorus]
Home, home, this house is not a
Home, home, this house is not a
Home, home, this house is not a
Home, home, this house is not a home

Psalm 35 KJV and Scottish Metrical Psalter
1 PLEAD my cause, O LORD, with them that strive with me: fight against them that fight against me.
2 Take hold of shield and buckler, and stand up for mine help.
3 Draw out also the spear, and stop the way against them that persecute me: say unto my soul, I am thy salvation.
4 Let them be confounded and put to shame that seek after my soul: let them be turned back and brought to
confusion that devise my hurt.
5 Let them be as chaff before the wind: and let the angel of the LORD chase them.
6 Let their way be dark and slippery: and let the angel of the LORD persecute them.
7 For without cause have they hid for me their net in a pit, which without cause they have digged for my soul.
8 Let destruction come upon him at unawares; and let his net that he hath hid catch himself: into that very
destruction let him fall.
9 And my soul shall be joyful in the LORD: it shall rejoice in his salvation.
10 All my bones shall say, LORD, who is like unto thee; which deliverest the poor from him that is too strong for him,
yea, the poor and the needy from him that spoileth him?
11 False witnesses did rise up; they laid to my charge things that I knew not.
12 They rewarded my evil for good to the spoiling of my soul.
13 But as for me, when they were sick, my clothing was sackcloth: I humbled my soul with fasting; and my
prayers returned into mine own bosom.
14 I behaved myself as though he had been my friend or brother: I bowed down heavily, as one that mourneth
for his mother.
15 But in mine adversity they rejoiced, and gathered themselves together: yea, the abjects gathered themselves
together against me, and I knew it not; they did tear me, and ceased not:
16 With hypocritical mockers in feasts, they gnashed upon me with their teeth.
17 Lord, how long wilt thou look on? rescue my soul from their destructions, my darling from the lions.
18 I will give thee thanks in the great congregation: I will praise thee among much people.
19 Let not them that are mine enemies wrongfully rejoice over me: neither let them wink with the eye that hate
me without a cause.
20 For they speak not peace: but they devise deceitful matters against them that are quiet in the land.
21 Yea they opened their mouth wide against me, and said, Aha, aha, our eye hath seen it.
22 This thou hast seen, O LORD: keep not silence: O Lord, be not far from me.
23 Stir up thyself, and awake to my judgment, even unto my cause, my God and my Lord.
24 Judge me, O LORD my God, according to thy righteousness; and let them not rejoice over me.
25 Let them not say in their hearts, Ah, so would we have it: let them not say, We have swallowed him up.
26 Let them be ashamed and brought to confusion together that rejoice at mine hurt: let them be clothed
with shame and dishonour that magnify themselves against me.
27 Let them shout for joy, and be glad, that favour my righteous cause: yea, let them say continually, Let the
LORD be magnified, which hath pleasure in the prosperity of his servant.
28 And my tongue shall speak of thy righteousness and of thy praise all the day long.
Psalm 35 - KJV
Psalm 35
A Psalm of David.
1 Plead, Lord, with those that plead; and
fight
with those that fight with me.
2 Of shield and buckler take thou hold,
stand up mine help to be.
3 Draw also out the spear, and do
against them stop the way
That me pursue: unto my soul,
I'm thy salvation, say.
4 Let them confounded be and sham'd
that for my soul have sought:
Who plot my hurt turn'd back be they,
and to confusion brought.
5 Let them be like unto the chaff
that flies before the wind;
And let the angel of the Lord
pursue them hard behind.
6 With darkness cover thou their way,
and let it slipp'ry prove;
And let the angel of the Lord
pursue them from above.
7 For without cause have they for me
their net hid in a pit,
They also have without a cause
for my soul digged it.
8 Let ruin seize him unawares;
his net he hid withal
Himself let catch; and in the same
destruction let him fall.
9 My soul in God shall joy; and glad
in his salvation be:
10 And all my bones shall say, O Lord,
who is like unto thee,
Which dost the poor set free from him
that is for him too strong;
The poor and needy from the man
that spoils and does him wrong?
11 False witnesses rose; to my charge
things I not knew they laid.
12 They, to the spoiling of my soul,
me ill for good repaid.
13 But as for me, when they were sick,
in sackcloth sad I mourn'd:
My humbled soul did fast, my pray'r
into my bosom turn'd.
14 Myself I did behave as he
had been my friend or brother;
I heavily bow'd down, as one
that mourneth for his mother.
15 But in my trouble they rejoic'd,
gath'ring themselves together;
Yea, abjects vile together did
themselves against me gather:
I knew it not; they did me tear,
and quiet would not be.
16 With mocking hypocrites, at feasts
they gnash'd their teeth at me.
17 How long, Lord, look'st thou on? from
those
destructions they intend
Rescue my soul, from lions young
my darling do defend.
18 I will give thanks to thee, O Lord,
within th' assembly great;
And where much people gather'd are
thy praises forth will set.
19 Let not my wrongful enemies
proudly rejoice o'er me;
Nor who me hate without a cause,
let them wink with the eye.
20 For peace they do not speak at all;
but crafty plots prepare
Against all those within the land
that meek and quiet are.
21 With mouths set wide, they 'gainst me
said,
Ha, ha! our eye doth see.
22 Lord, thou hast seen, hold not thy peace;
Lord, be not far from me.
23 Stir up thyself; wake, that thou may'st
judgment to me afford,
Ev'n to my cause, O thou that art
my only God and Lord.
24 O Lord my God, do thou me judge
after thy righteousness;
And let them not their joy 'gainst me
triumphantly express:
25 Nor let them say within their hearts,
Ah, we would have it thus;
Nor suffer them to say, that he
is swallow'd up by us.
26 Sham'd and confounded be they all
that at my hurt are glad;
Let those against me that do boast
with shame and scorn be clad.
27 Let them that love my righteous cause
be glad, shout, and not cease
To say, The Lord be magnify'd,
who loves his servant's peace.
28 Thy righteousness shall also be
declared by my tongue;
The praises that belong to thee
speak shall it all day long.

Fink - I Buried All The Answers (official live video)
Fink - I Buried All The Answers
I should be sorry but I'm not
Now I'm standing on my own two feet
I should be bitter but the memories they taste so sweet
I know I should be richer than I am
But I spent it all like tomorrow isn't real
I should be yearning for more but I'm full to the brim
I should be in a hurry but I'm not
As I watch the sand of the hour glass
I should get ready but the moment has already passed
I should be busy as hell
But sometimes doing nothing is enough
I should be running from myself but I buried all the answers here
I should be sorry but I'm not
Now I'm standing on my own two feet
I should be bitter but the memories they taste so sweet
