Stanley Nogueira - 93 Millions Miles/Photograph (Jason Mraz/Ed Sheeran cover)

 Stanley Nogueira - 93 Millions Miles/Photograph

 [Verse 1]
93 million miles from the Sun, people get ready, get ready
'Cause here it comes it's a light, a beautiful light, over the horizon into our eyes
Oh, my my how beautiful, oh my beautiful mother
She told me, "Son in life you're gonna go far, if you do it right you'll love where you are
Just know, wherever you go, you can always come home"

[Chorus]
Ohh, ohh, ohh
Ohh, ohh, ohh

[Verse 2]
240 thousand miles from the Moon, we've come a long way to belong here
To share this view of the night, a glorious night, over the horizon is another bright sky
Oh, my my how beautiful, oh my irrefutable father
He told me, "Son sometimes it may seem dark, but the absence of the light is a necessary part
Just know, you're never alone, you can always come back home"

[Chorus]
Ohh, ohh, ohh
Ohh, ohh, ohh
You can always come back, back

[Bridge]
Every road is a slippery slope
There is always a hand that you can hold on to
Looking deeper through the telescope
You can see that your home's inside of you

[Chorus]
Just know, that wherever you go, no you're never alone, you will always get back home
Ohh, ohh, ohh
Ohh, ohh, ohh

[Outro]
93 million miles from the Sun, people get ready, get ready
'Cause here it comes it's a light, a beautiful light, over the horizon into our eyes

[Verse 1]
Loving can hurt, loving can hurt sometimes
But it's the only thing that I know
When it gets hard, you know it can get hard sometimes
It is the only thing that makes us feel alive

[Pre-Chorus]
We keep this love in a photograph
We made these memories for ourselves
Where our eyes are never closing
Hearts are never broken
And time's forever frozen, still

[Chorus]
So you can keep me
Inside the pocket of your ripped jeans
Holding me closer 'til our eyes meet
You won't ever be alone, wait for me to come home

[Verse 2]
Loving can heal, loving can mend your soul
And it's the only thing that I know, know
I swear it will get easier, remember that with every piece of ya
And it's the only thing we take with us when we die

[Pre-Chorus]
We keep this love in a photograph
We made these memories for ourselves
Where our eyes are never closing
Hearts were never broken
And time's forever frozen, still

[Chorus]
So you can keep me
Inside the pocket of your ripped jeans
Holding me closer 'til our eyes meet
You won't ever be alone
And if you hurt me, well that's okay, baby
Only words bleed inside these pages, you just hold me
And I won't ever let you go
Wait for me to come home

[Bridge]
Wait for me to come home
Wait for me to come home
Wait for me to come home

[Chorus]
Oh, you can fit me
Inside the necklace you got when you were 16
Next to your heartbeat where I should be
Keep it deep within your soul
And if you hurt me, well that's okay, baby
Only words bleed inside these pages
You just hold me
And I won't ever let you go

[Outro]
When I'm away, I will remember how you kissed me
Under the lamppost back on Sixth street
Hearing you whisper through the phone
"Wait for me to come home"

Dermot Kennedy - Honest

 Dermot Kennedy - Honest

Oh I raced head first down the old stone road
To the bridge outside Kilteel
And I held my breath on that frosty morning
Dreaming maybe you’re still there
Now I know in my heart that the original sin
Was never showing you my mind
‘Fore you crossed that sea,
You left this land and left my love behind

But my heart’s too honest
All my colours spilling out
Cause I know you’re all I want, want
Have we missed our moment?
How could fate be so unfair?
Cause I know you’re all I want, want

Now my Father stands in the middle of the road saying
“Boy where have you been?
You’ve been out all night chasing dogs and ghosts
And this hill has taken down good men.”
It’s been dark so long, she’s so damn bright
I can barely get myself to leave
I don’t do this much, no it’s not like me, he said
“I know just what you mean.”

But my heart’s too honest
All my colours spilling out
Cause I know you’re all I want, want
Have we missed our moment?
How could fate be so unfair?
Cause I know you’re all I want, want, want, want
Cause I know you’re all I want, want, want, want
Cause I know you’re all I want, want

I realise now there’s a wolf inside that I dare not try to kill
I can change my path, I can learn his heart but I cannot change his will
I watch her go, on a long cold night, I expect she’ll never leave my mind
And I’ll walk round broken, sceptical
Hoping one day she’ll return to my side

Late Night Thoughts - Travel On

Late Night Thoughts - Travel On 

If you open up your heart know that good things will come your way
As you discover who you are know that nothing stays the same
Pain tries to slow you down and shut you up
Don′t you let it
You are plenty strong enough

And if you find
That you have lost your reason
Don't know what you believe in
Can′t see a way back home
Just take your time
To live in all your grief and
You can pick up all the pieces
And travel on

Don't spend your wishes on what ifs and what happens next
There's way more to life so don′t live in the depths of regret
Reach out for here and now try to pull it closе
Don′t forget to
Give yourself patiеnce and live with the ebbs and the flows

And if you find
That you have lost your reason
Don't know what you believe in
Can′t see a way back home
Just take your time
To live in all your grief and
You can pick up all the pieces
And travel on

The Oh Hellos - Hello My Old Heart (eTown webisode #885)

 The Oh Hellos - Hello My Old Heart

Hello my old heart
How have you been
Are you still there inside my chest?
I've been so worried
You've been so still
Barely beating at all

Oh, don't leave me here alone
Don't tell me that we've grown
For having loved a little while
Oh, I don't want to be alone
I want to find a home
And I want to share it with you

Hello my old heart
It's been so long
Since I've given you away
And every day I add another stone
To the walls I built around you
To keep you safe

Oh, don't leave me here alone
Don't tell me that we've grown
For having loved a little while
Oh, I don't want to be alone
I want to find a home
And I want to share it with you

Hello my old heart
How have you been?
How is it, being locked away?
Well don't you worry
In there, you're safe
And it's true, you'll never beat
But you'll never break

Nothing lasts forever
Some things aren't meant to be
But you'll never find the answers
Until you set your old heart free

Until you set your old heart free

[Verse 1]
I see the moon, I see the moon, I see the moon
Oh, when you're looking at the sun
I'm not a fool, I'm not a fool, not a fool
No, you're not fooling anyone

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, but when you're gone
When you're gone, when you're gone
Oh baby, all the lights go out
Thinking, oh that, baby, I was wrong
I was wrong, I was wrong
Come back to me, baby, we can work this out

[Chorus]
Oh baby, come on, let me get to know you
Just another chance so that I can show
That I won't let you down and run
No, I won't let you down and run
'Cause I could be the one
I could be the one
I could be the one
I could be the one

[Verse 2]
I see in blue, I see in blue, I see in blue
Oh, when you see everything in red
There is nothing that I wouldn't do for you
Do for you, do for you
Oh, 'cause you got inside my head

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, but when you're gone
When you're gone, when you're gone
Oh baby, all the lights go out
Thinking, oh that, baby, I was wrong
I was wrong, I was wrong
Come back to me, baby, we can work this out

[Chorus]
Oh baby, come on, let me get to know you
Just another chance so that I can show
That I won't let you down and run
No, I won't let you down and run
'Cause I could be the one
I could be the one
I could be the one

[Bridge]
Be the one, be the one, be the one
Be the one, be the one, be the one
I could be the one
Be the one, be the one, be the one
Be the one, be the one, be the one
I could be the one
Be the one, be the one, be the one
Be the one, be the one, be the one
I could be the one
Be the one, be the one, be the one
Be the one, be the one, be the one
Will you be mine?

[Chorus]
Oh baby, come on, let me get to know you
Just another chance so that I can show
That I won't let you down and run
No, I won't let you down and run
'Cause I could be the one
I could be the one
I could be the one

Stephen Stanley - Idols (feat. Colton Dixon)

Stephen Stanley - Idols 

I've been wasting time
Chasing after false gods
What I thought was light
Turned into a blind spot

I got what I want
Now I'm empty-handed
What have I become

Now I think it's time
Will you change my mind?

Kill my idols
I'm losing life
You have no rival
Your way is right
No more denial
You are the prize
God no more idols
I surrender mine

Surrender mine
Surrender mine
Surrender mine
God no more idols

Surrender mine
Surrender mine
Surrender mine
God no more idols

If it means the end
If I'm starting over
Either way's a win
At least I'm getting closer

Kill my idols
I'm losing life
You have no rival
Your way is right
No more denial
You are the prize
God no more idols
I surrender mine

Surrender mine
Surrender mine
Surrender mine
God no more idols

Surrender mine
Surrender mine
Surrender mine
God no more idols

Surrender mine
Surrender mine
Surrender mine
God no more idols

Surrender mine
Surrender mine
Surrender mine
God no more idols

My survival
Is on the line
God no more idols
I surrender mine

Dua Lipa - Wind of Change (Scorpions cover) Live in Hamburg, Germany 20.5.2025

Dua Lipa - Wind of Change 

 [Intro]
(*Whistling*)

[Verse 1]
I follow the Moskva
Down to Gorky Park
Listening to the wind of change
An August summer night
Soldiers passing by
Listening to the wind of change
(*Whistling*)

[Verse 2]
The world is closing in
And did you ever think
That we could be so close, like brothers?
The future's in the air
I can feel it everywhere
Blowing with the wind of change

[Chorus]
Take me to the magic of the moment
On a glory night
Where the children of tomorrow dream away (Dream away)
In the wind of change
Mmm

[Verse 3]
Walking down the street
And distant memories
Are buried in the past forever
I follow the Moskva
And down to Gorky Park
Listening to the wind of change

[Chorus]
Take me (Take me) to the magic of the moment
On a glory night (A glory night)
Where the children of tomorrow share their dreams (Share their dreams)
With you and me (With you and me)
Take me (Take me) to the magic of the moment
On a glory night (A glory night)
Where the children of tomorrow dream away (Dream away)
In the wind of change (The wind of change)

[Bridge]
The wind of change
Blows straight into the face of time
Like a storm wind that will ring the freedom bell
For peace of mind
Let your balalaika sing
What my guitar wants to say (Say)
[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]
Take me (Take me) to the magic of the moment
On a glory night (A glory night)
Where the children of tomorrow share their dreams (Share their dreams)
With you and me (With you and me)
Take me (Take me) to the magic of the moment
On a glory night (A glory night)
Where the children of tomorrow dream away (Dream away)
In the wind of change (The wind of change)

[Outro]
(*Whistling*)

Jesse Welles - Leviathan

 Jesse Welles - Leviathan

on your hamster wheel of progress
new illusions coming soon
semi-larval at the carnival
in your warm cocoon of doom

the machine is stretching out
eating forests eating fields
you've been training your replacement
you've been training it for years

there ain't enough metal
there ain't enough oil
there ain't enough blood
to make this demon come
and blow the dope across its neurons
tranquilizing everyone

I've been to the end of the rainbow
and there ain't no lucky charms
them lifeboats ain't for us
and it's a long march to the stars
so put your hair up in a bun hun
tie yer mind in a knot
and if you can imagine less
than the little that you've got
centuries of geniuses 
have brought us into light
I'm like you, I'm a fool
but them losers can't be right
leviathan pass me in the night

you were staring at your palm
down the barrel of the hose
and there's chaos in the tank
burning up your eyes burning up your nose

and you can't look away
stupefied with dread
there never tell you change the scene
they jus say change up yer head

and there ain't enough pills
ain't enough sugar
ain't enough lies
to make it all feel right
and blow the dope across yer neurons
in this mediocre life

I've been to the end of the rainbow
and there ain't no lucky charms
them lifeboats ain't for us
and it's a long march to the stars
so put your hair up in a bun hun
tie yer mind in a knot
and if you can imagine less
than the little that you've got
centuries of geniuses 
have brought us into light
I'm like you, I'm a fool
but them losers can't be right
leviathan pass me in the night

looted planet Mother Earth
every storehouse stripped to bone
do you wish I'd never come here
that I'd never called you home

there ain't enough water
ain't enough air
ain't enough time
to straighten what we've bent
Mother Earth I ain't a sinner
jus a person who has sinned

don't talk to me
of blasphemy
The Tyranny of God:
Leviathan
pass me in the night
I'm like you I'm a fool
jus wanna be alright

I've been to the end of the rainbow
and there ain't no lucky charms
them lifeboats ain't for us
and it's a long march to the stars
so put your hair up in a bun hun
tie yer mind in a knot
and if you can imagine less
than the little that you've got
centuries of charlatans 
have brought us into light
I'm like you, I'm a fool
but I want to be alright
leviathan pass me in the night

Alan Wake - Poets of the Fall (The Poet and the Muse, War) Valadorn Skorr

 Poets of the Fall - The Poet and the Muse, War

There's an old tale wrought with the mystery of Tom
The poet and his muse
And the magic lake which gave a life
To the words the poet used

Now the muse she was his happiness
And he rhymed about her grace
And told her stories of treasures deep
Beneath the blackened waves

'Till in the stillness of one dawn
Still in its mystic crown
The muse she went down to the lake
And in the waves she drowned

And now to see your love set free
You will need the witch's cabin key
Find the lady of the light gone mad with the night
That's how you reshape destiny

The poet came down to the lake
To call out to his dear
'When there was no answer
'He was overcome with fear

He searched in vain for his treasure lost
And too soon the night would fall
And only his own echo
Would wail back at his call

And when he swore to bring back his love
By the stories he'd create
Nightmares shifted in their sleep
In the darkness of the lake

And now to see your love set free
You will need the witch's cabin key
Find the lady of the light still ravin' in the night
That's how you reshape destiny

In the dead of night she came to him
With darkness in her eyes
Wearing a mourning gown
Sweet words as her disguise

He took her in without a word
For he saw his grave mistake
And vowed them both to silence
Deep beneath the lake

Now if its real or just a dream
One mystery remains
For it is said on moonless nights
They may still haunt this place

And now to see your love set free
You will need the witch's cabin key
Find the lady of the light gone mad with the night
That's how you reshape destiny

And now to see your love set free
You will need the witch's cabin key
Find the lady of the light still ravin' in the night
That's how you reshape destiny

 

War

Do you remember standing on a broken field
White crippled wings beating the sky
The harbingers of war with their nature revealed
And our chances flowing by

If I can let the memory heal
I will remember you with me on that field

When I thought that I fought this war alone
You were there by my side on the frontline
When I thought that I fought without a cause
You gave me a reason to try

Turn the page I need to see something new
For now my innocence is torn
We cannot linger on this stunted view
Like rabid dogs of war

I will let the memory heal
I will remember you with me on that field

When I thought that I fought this war alone
You were there by my side on the frontline
And we fought to believe the impossible
When I thought that I fought this war alone
We were one with our destinies entwined
When I thought that I fought without a cause
You gave me the reason why

With no-one wearing their real face
It's a whiteout of emotion
And I've only got my brittle bones to break the fall

When the love in letters fade
It's like moving in slow motion
And we're already too late if we arrive at all

And then we're caught up in the arms race
An involuntary addiction
And we're shedding every value our mothers taught

So will you please show me your real face
Draw the line in the horizon
Cos I only need your name to call the reasons why I fought

When I thought that I fought this war alone... 

 

Shinedown - Back to the Living

Shinedown - Back to the Living 

I haven't lost my mind, but I still might
I picked up a knife in a gun fight
I had to memorize the moment
I'm a little late, but I'll own it

I know I'm not alone, but I'm lonely
I haven't found a cage that can hold me
But as the tension grows
The highs don't match the lows

Like a panic attack that never slows down
Like an addict that can't control the come down
And the sorrow is all so unforgiving
And we all miss the ones we love
But it's time to come back, it's time to come back to the living

I know it's never easy and it ain't fair
Trying to pull some hope out of thin air
And it's amazing that I'm still around
Got me all emotional and spellbound
But as the tension grows
The highs don't match the lows

Like a panic attack that never slows down
Like an addict that can't control the come down
And the sorrow is all so unforgiving
And we all miss the ones we love
But it's time to come back, it's time to come back to the living

It's time to come back, come back

Like a panic attack that never slows down
Like an addict that can't control the come down
And the sorrow is all so unforgiving
And we all miss the ones we love
But it's time to come back, it's time to come back to the living

(Time to come back, my friend) It's time to come back
(Time to come back again) It's time to come back again
(Time to come back, my friend) But it's time to come back
(Time to come back again) It's time to come back, it's time to come back to the living 

Vance Joy - Clarity

 Vance Joy - Clarity

The day began like all the rest 
A frantic beating in my chest 
A panicked reeling in my brain 
Perspective lost but nothing gained 
I was so stuck inside my shell
Then the ground began to sway
I realised what mattered most, To me 

When the stars began to fall right out of the sky 
And the seas were rising up 
I had one thing in mind 
It was you it was you it was you 
It was you it was you it was you 
When the road began to crumble in front of my eyes 
There was only one person I wanted to find 
It was you, it was you, it was you 
It was you, it was you, it was you, darling, hey hey hey 

The precious moments that we shared 
You slowed time down inside my head 
I wish I'd found this clarity 
While I still had you close to me 

But I was stuck inside my shell 
Until the ground began to sway 
I realised what mattered most, that day 

When the stars began to fall right out of the sky 
And the seas were rising up 
I had one thing in mind 
It was you, it was you, it was you 
It was you, it was you, it was you  

When the road began to crumble in front of my eyes 
There was only one person I wanted to find 
It was you, it was you, it was you 
It was you, it was you, it was you, darling, hey hey hey 

When the stars began to fall right out of the sky 
And the seas were rising up 
I had one thing in mind 
It was you, it was you, it was you 
It was you, it was you, it was you 

When the road began to crumble in front of my eyes 
There was only one person I wanted to find 
It was you, it was you, it was you 
It was you, it was you, it was you, darling, hey hey hey 

It was you it was you it was you 
Darling, hey hey hey  

It was you, it was you, it was you 

Echosmith - Last Forever

 Echosmith - Last Forever 

You and me, we were settin’ love on fire 
On the beach, nothin’ better, nothin’ brighter
We fell like stars and lightning 

On that night when your car was overheated
Took a walk and we laughed until we made it 
We felt like we were finding magic then
Does it have to end 

I am gonna remember this
Never let go of when
We were beginning
I am gonna remember this
Cuz those are the days I wish we could make 
Last forever, last forever Last forever, last forever

Remember days when we didn’t need a reason
Yeah we didn’t need a lot to get the feeling 
We borrowed time, we spent it
Was worth it then 
Don’t let me forget

I am gonna remember this
Never let go of when
We were beginning
I am gonna remember this
Cuz those are the days I wish we could make 
Last forever, last forever Last forever, last forever

And it feels like I’m holding my breath 
Never knew it could feel like this

I am gonna remember this
Never let go of when 
We were beginning
I am gonna remember this
Cuz those are the days I wish we could make
Last forever, last forever
Last forever, last forever

The Paper Kites - Bloom

 The Paper Kites - Bloom 

In the morning when I wake
And the sun is coming through
Oh you fill my lungs with sweetness
And you fill my head with you

Shall I write it in a letter?
Shall I try to get it down?
Oh you fill my head with pieces
Of a song I can't get out

Can I be close to you

Can I take you to a moment
Where the fields are painted gold
And the trees are filled with memories
Of the feelings never told

When the evening pulls the sun down
And the day is almost through
Oh the whole world it is sleeping
But my world is you

Lord Huron - Is There Anybody Out There?

 Lord Huron - Is There Anybody Out There?

All alone in the long night, staring up at the moon
I've been looking a long time, what's your name? Am I ever gonna find you?
Am I reading the wrong rhymes? Are you too far to hear?
I've been talking a long time, hope my message will find an ear

Is there anybody out there?

Glimpsed a ghost in the darkness, stared me straight in the eye
It was only my own face, faintly mirrored in memory and moonlight
Heard a voice in the vastness whisper words in my ear
It was only my own noise dimly echoed across the years

Is there anybody out there?
Am I ever gonna find my way to you?
Is there anybody out there?
Is there anybody out there?
We haven't met, but I wrote this song for you
Is there anybody out there?

What's the worth of a lone soul? Don't they count 'em by two?
If I only get one role, how the hell am I ever gonna find you?
Maybe someone will find me, I'll be waiting right here
I'll be broadcasting all night, hope my signal is loud and clear

I'm alone in this place as I stare out into space
And I feel something strange, like my world has changed

Is there anybody out there?
Is there anybody out there?
Is there anybody out there?
We haven't met, but I wrote this song for you
Is there anybody out there?

I'm alone in this place as I stare out into space
And I feel something strange, like my world has changed
I'm alone in this place as I stare out into space
And I feel so constrained, like my world has chains

Is there anybody out there?

Marc Scibilia - Piano Man (Billy Joel)

Marc Scibilia - Piano Man

[Verse 1]
It's nine o'clock on a Saturday
The regular crowd shuffles in
There's an old man sittin' next to me
Makin' love to his tonic and gin
He says, "Son, can you play me a memory?
I'm not really sure how it goes
But it's sad, and it's sweet, and I knew it complete
When I wore a younger man's clothes"

[Refrain]
La, la-la, di-dee-da
La-la, di-dee-da da-dum

[Chorus]
Sing us a song, you're the piano man
Sing us a song tonight
Well, we're all in the mood for a melody
And you've got us feelin' alright

[Verse 2]
Now John at the bar is a friend of mine
He gets me my drinks for free
And he's quick with a joke, or to light up your smoke
But there's someplace that he'd rather be
He says, "Bill, I believe this is killing me"
As the smile ran away from his face
"Well, I'm sure that I could be a movie star
If I could get out of this place"

[Refrain]
Oh, la, la-la, di-dee-da
La-la, di-dee-da da-dum

[Verse 3]
Now Paul is a real estate novelist
Who never had time for a wife
And he's talkin' with Davy, who's still in the navy
And probably will be for life
And the waitress is practicing politics
As the businessmen slowly get stoned
Yes, they're sharing a drink they call loneliness
But it's better than drinkin' alone

[Piano Solo]

[Chorus]
Sing us a song, you're the piano man
Sing us a song tonight
Well, we're all in the mood for a melody
And you've got us feelin' alright

[Verse 4]
It's a pretty good crowd for a Saturday
And the manager gives me a smile
'Cause he knows that it's me they've been comin' to see
To forget about life for a while
And the piano, it sounds like a carnival
And the microphone smells like a beer
And they sit at the bar and put bread in my jar
And say, "Man, what are you doin' here?"

[Refrain]
Oh, la, la-la, di-dee-da
La-la, di-dee-da da-dum

[Chorus]
Sing us a song, you're the piano man
Sing us a song tonight
Well, we're all in the mood for a melody
And you've got us feelin' alright

 The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus - In Fate's Hands

[Verse 1]
I remember a year ago, I was standing in the crowd
Waiting for my chance to break through
My chance to live again
And now it seems I've found some friends who finally understand
What it takes to make this dream come true
We'll be here 'til the end

[Chorus]
Shake it, break it, get off your feet
Come dance with me and don't you fake it
Shake it, break it, get off your feet
Get close to me and don't you fake it

[Verse 2]
Shout (Hey) and (Hey) scream (Hey), my friends (Hey)
Connect (Hey) with me (Hey) and we'll pretend
This night will never end (Whoa-oh), this night will never end
Just (Hey) let (Hey) go (Hey), you'll see (Hey)
Together (Hey), we'll do (Hey) anything
This night will never end (Whoa-oh), this night will never end

[Chorus]
Shake it, break it, get off your feet
Come dance with me and don't you fake it
Shake it, break it, get off your feet
Get close to me and don't you fake it

Role Model - High Hopes 3000

 Role Model - High Hopes 3000

 I end my day
The same way it started
Alone in LA
While I grieve the departed 

Waiting, waiting for someone
Someone to change my life

Brand new shirt
Yes it’s a little expensive
Oh whatever works
To put some joy in the engine

And I go out on the town
Trying to change my night
And doing it over and over and over and over again

Aw hell, I need some high hopes
Lord knows I could use ‘em
I know ima lose ‘em when the wheels fall off
Hey now, lend some independence 
Stuck inside the fences like a g--damn dog
Long nights, heavy feelings 
They say I’m unappealing when I shoot my shot
Come here honey, show me how to do it
Does love come around or does one come around to it?

I get undressed
In the arms of a stranger
Then second guess
That ol’ half sober behavior 

Do I really? Do I really believe
That someone could change my life
And doing it over and over and over and over again
Where does it end 

I need some high hopes
Lord knows I could use ‘em
I know ima lose ‘em when the wheels fall off
Hey now, lend some independence 
Stuck inside the fences like a g--damn dog
Long nights, heavy feelings
They say I’m unappealing when I shoot my shot
Come here honey, don’t know how to do it
Does love come around or does one come around to it?

Talking ‘bout high hopes
Lord knows I could use ‘em
I know ima lose ‘em 
When the wheels fall off

Hey now
Lend some independence
Stuck inside the fences
Like a g--damn dog

High hopes
Lord knows I could use ‘em
I know ima lose ‘em 
When the wheels fall off

Hey now
Lend some independence
Stuck inside the fences
Like a g--damn dog

High hopes
Oh I could use ‘em
High hopes
don't let me lose ‘em now
High hopes
Know I could use ‘em
High hopes

Death Cab for Cutie - Riptides (Jimmy Kimmel Live)

 Death Cab for Cutie - Riptides

These days
I say goodbye without opening my mouth
I just stare into the distance til you figure it out
‘Cause I feel
As invested as a border guard
Who’s seen too many people leaving
To take it too hard

I’m too tired to talk
I’m too tired to end the war
And I can’t seem to hold it together
Anymore

And my Old Haunts
Each one’s a trigger and I’m holding the gun
Like a perp frozen in your headlights
Who forgot to run
And I’m overcome
By the voices multiplying in the crowd
That’s been swelling in between my ears
And growing frighteningly loud

I’m too tired to talk
I’m too tired to end the war
And I can’t seem to hold it together
Anymore
I’m too tired to start
I can’t bring you up to speed
There’s too many riptides in this ocean
To proceed

And though I’m feeling fine
Roughly half the time
There’s a fatal flaw
In my heart’s design

Avicii - Hey Brother

Avicii - Hey Brother  

[Verse 1]
Hey, brother
There's an endless road to rediscover
Hey, sister
Know the water's sweet but blood is thicker

[Refrain]
Oh, if the sky comes falling down
For you, there's nothing in this world I wouldn't do

[Verse 2]
Hey, brother
Do you still believe in one another?
Hey, sister
Do you still believe in love?
I wonder

[Refrain]
Oh, if the sky comes falling down
For you, there's nothing in this world I wouldn't do

[Chorus]
What if I'm far from home?
Oh brother, I will hear you call
What if I lose it all?
Oh sister, I will help you out
Oh, if the sky comes falling down
For you, there's nothing in this world I wouldn't do

[Verse 3]
Hey, brother
There's an endless road to rediscover
Hey, sister
Do you still believe in love? I wonder

[Refrain]
Oh, if the sky comes falling down
For you, there's nothing in this world I wouldn't do

[Chorus]
What if I'm far from home?
Oh brother, I will hear you call
What if I lose it all?
Oh sister, I will help you out
Oh, if the sky comes falling down
For you, there's nothing in this world I wouldn't do

Ocie Elliot - Take Me Home (live from Zermatt Unplugged 2022)

 Ocie Elliot - Take Me Home 

I get all these thoughts burning through my mind
Some of them are on fire, some are just unkind
I turn my TV on, I want to go blind
The words scroll through my head and I get so resigned

Take me home, I don’t want to stay here
Take me home, I don’t want to stay here

Dark clouds forming over foaming seas
And the notes are folding, and the winter’s freezing
We learned we steal our honey from the bees
I hear that buzzing every time I’m not at ease

Take me home, I don’t want to stay here
Take me home, I don’t want to stay

And as soon as I’m on, with the now in mind
I see it’s one step at a time

Sandro Cavazza - Without You (Avicii) acoustic version NRJ SWEDEN

 Sandro Cavazza - Without You

[Verse 1]
You said that we would always be
Without you I feel lost at sea
Through the darkness you'd hide with me
Like the wind we'd be wild and free

[Bridge]
You said you'd follow me anywhere
But your eyes tell me you won't be there

[Chorus]
I gotta learn how to love without you
I gotta carry my cross without you
Stuck in the middle and I'm just about to
Figure it out without you
And I'm done sittin' home without you
F---, I'm goin' out without you
I'm going to tear this city down without you
I'm going Bonnie and Clyde without you

[Verse 2]
Now I'm running away, my dear
From myself and the truth I fear
My heart is beatin' I can't see clear
How I'm wishing that you were here

[Bridge]
You said you'd follow me anywhere
But your eyes tell me you won't be there

[Chorus]
I gotta learn how to love without you
I gotta carry my cross without you
Stuck in the middle and I'm just about to
Figure it out without you
And I'm done sittin' home without you
F---, I'm goin' out without you
I'm going to tear this city down without you
I'm going Bonnie and Clyde without you

Nothing But Thieves - Evolution

 Nothing But Thieves - Evolution

Come, bury me in motion 
A feral kind of war
In trying to be human 
That's not my fault 
That's evolution 
That's getting off the floor 
There's, something in me stirring
A memory away 
I saw it down at Chinnerys
In Halcyon days 
When I look at you, I feel my blood group change 
Something in the room doesn't feel the same 
The sound of hope when we collide 
Hits you like an angel outta the sky 
I wanna get it wrong, I wanna hesitate 
Wanna shake a life, make it oscillate
The future you saw, or something more 
It’s a step, it’s a kick, it’s a shot
Give it all you've got
And go through the evolution 
Give it all you've got
And go through the evolution 
Uh, chewing on thunder 
It's rolling in my mouth
Guess it's in my nature 
Don't wanna spit it out  
When I look at you, I feel my blood group change 
Something in the room doesn't feel the same 
The sound of hope when we collide 
Hits you like an angel outta the sky 
I wanna get it wrong, I wanna hesitate 
Wanna shake a life, make it oscillate
The future you saw, or something more 
It’s a step, it’s a kick, it’s a shot
Give it all you’ve got
And go through the evolution 
Give it all you’ve got
And go through the evolution 
 
Don't leave your faith on me
I don't want it if it matters 
No don't leave your shame on me
Shame on me
When I look at you, I feel my blood group change 
Something in the room doesn't feel the same 
The sound of hope when we collide 
Hits you like an angel outta the sky 
I wanna get it wrong, I wanna hesitate 
Wanna hold a life, feel it resonate
The future you saw, or something more 
It’s a step, it’s a kick, it’s a shot
Give it all you've got
And go through the evolution 
Give it all you've got
And go through the evolution
