Common People - Propaganda

 Common People - Propaganda

A mask, a clue, disguise
Yeah don’t look so confused, it’s your design
This table set for two will turn in time
Remember when you choose, both sides are blind
Don’t tell me what you want, my love, my hate
Your propaganda
It’s propaganda
‘Cause it was cold cold blooded to me
When you shot me down, shot me down in the street
Did you wash your hands?
Will you ever come clean?
Did you get what you want, when you took that from me?
Did you mean what you said, when you said it to me?
When you shot me down, shot me down in the street
Took the words out my mouth then you turned them on me
When you shot me down shot me down in the street
A look, a lie, a taste
Hides right behind your lips, a kiss, mistakes
Spin truths around the sun, they burn away
So tell me what you want
I’ll tell you what to say
So tell me what you want
My love, my hate
Your propaganda
It’s propaganda
‘Cause it was cold cold blooded to me
When you shot me down, shot me down in the street
Did you wash your hands?
Will you ever come clean?
Did you get what you want, when you took that from me?
Did you mean what you said, when you said it to me?
When you shot me down, shot me down in the street
Took the words out my mouth then you turned them on me
When you shot me down shot me down in the street yeah
Believe what you want
You know what you did
I wish I was wrong
‘Cause you’re gone
‘Cause it was cold cold blooded to me
When you shot me down, shot me down in the street
Did you wash your hands?
Will you ever come clean?
Did you get what you want, when you took that from?
Did you mean what you said, when you said it to me?
When you shot me down, shot me down in the street
Took the words out my mouth then you turned them on me
When you shot me down shot me down in the street yeah

YONAKA - Best of Me

 YONAKA - Best of Me

Meet me at the top of our road
And tell me that you don’t feel alone
We’re always walking in crowds
Nobody’s seeing us drown

I hate to be the bearer of bad news 
But I’m a realist and it’s all true
I’m running out of ways I can hide
It’s eating me up inside 

Hi, do I look different to you?
Am I still the sugar to that sweet tooth?
I’m growing out of myself over and over again

So pull out my heart and I’ll bleed
Fallen down on bloody knees
You’ll always have the best of me love 
You’ll always have the best of me love
I’m holding back the tears whilst I speak 
My conscience has made me weak 
You’ll always have the best of me love 
You’ll always have the best of me love

I need to take a break from the shame
It’s heavy and reckless my friend
I have lost touch with the view 
I’m left with just a memory of you 

It’s as suffocating as it’s sweet
You’ll be blind until you’re free
It’s ripped me apart into two
And I left a piece just for you

So pull out my heart and I’ll bleed
Fallen down on bloody knees
You’ll always have the best of me love 
You’ll always have the best of me love
I’m holding back the tears whilst I speak 
My conscience has made me weak 
You’ll always have the best of me love 
You’ll always have the best of me love

So pull out my heart and I’ll bleed
Fallen down on bloody knees
You’ll always have the best of me love 
You’ll always have the best of me love

So pull out my heart and I’ll bleed
Fallen down on bloody knees
You’ll always have the best of me love 
You’ll always have the best of me love
I’m holding back the tears whilst I speak 
My conscience has made me weak 
You’ll always have the best of me love 
You’ll always have the best of me love

Three Days Grace - I Am The Weapon

 Three Days Grace - I Am The Weapon

Who would I be if I never met
A teacher, priest, or a prophet?
What do I need,  tell me what does it mean
Am I living or dying the dream?
 
Youth is broken 
Half of it was stolen 
By a world I can’t unsee
Youth is broken 
Half of it was stolen 
Look what you’ve done to me
 
I was a target
I was the mission
You had the power
The ammunition
 
Now I’m the message
This is a lesson
Here in the present
I am the weapon
 
Now I’m the message
This is a lesson
Here in the present
I am the weapon
 
Your concept of love
And your hunger for war
Tell me which one should I die for
Cuz I am the product
I how I was brought up
The cycle spins out of control
 
Youth is broken 
Half of it was stolen 
By a world I can’t unsee
Youth is broken 
Half of it was stolen 
Look what you’ve done to me
 
I was a target
I was the mission
You had the power
The ammunition
 
Now I’m the message
This is a lesson
Here in the present
I am the weapon

Nora Jones - Shoot The Moon - Live at Home

 Nora Jones - Shoot The Moon

The summer days are gone too soon
You shoot the moon
And miss completely
And now you're left to face the gloom
The empty room that once smelled sweetly
Of all the flowers you plucked if only
You knew the reason
Why you had to each be lonely
Was it just the season?

Now the fall is here again
You can't begin to give in
It's all over

When the snows come rolling through
You're rolling too with some new lover
Will you think of times you've told me
That you knew the reason
Why we had to each be lonely
It was just the season

Ellie Goulding - Starry Eyed

 Ellie Goulding - Starry Eyed

Oh, oh, starry eyed
Hit, hit, hit, hit, hit me with lightning

Handle bars, and then I let go, let go for anyone
Take me in, and throw out my heart and get a new one

Next thing we're touching
You look at me it's like you hit me with lightning
Ahhh

Oh, everybody's starry-eyed
And everybody goes
Oh, everybody's starry-eyed
And my body goes
Whoa oh oh ah ah
Whoa oh oh ah ah
Whoa oh oh

So we burst into colors, colors and carousels,
Fall head first like paper planes in playground games

Next thing we're touching
You look at me it's like you hit me with lightning
Ahhhh

Oh, everybody's starry-eyed
And everybody goes
Oh, everybody's starry-eyed
And my body goes
Whoa oh oh ah ah
Whoa oh oh ah ah
Whoa oh oh

Next thing we're touching (x8)

Hit me with lightning

Oh, everybody's starry-eyed
And everybody goes
Oh, everybody's starry-eyed
And my body goes (x2)

whoa oh oh ah ah (x3)

CheVelle - Face to the Floor

 CheVelle - Face to the Floor

 [Verse 1]
To pick up the tip doesn't mean a lot
Fiddle inside your drawers
If we own the night, then spread it out
Or pack up without a clue

[Pre-Chorus]
Well, caused by their own
And by default
Time to vamanos

[Chorus]
Like your face getting forced to the floor

[Verse 2]
Then I got a taste of the benefits
Five foot and change
There's no better way to hash it out
So let's set up your time to fail

[Pre-Chorus]
Well course now the cracks
Should we intervene?
I hold this albatross

[Chorus]
Like your face getting forced to the floor
And either way, you're way too close to it all

[Bridge]
Pay up, never wait 'em out
Clever, Madoff, take it all
Take it all
(Your mouth blessed)
Take it all the way, right back down
(Clueless mess)
Pay up, never take it all
Take it all

{Chorus]
Like your face getting forced to the floor
(In a league of your own)
And either way, you're way too close to it all
(You cannot veto the world)

[Chorus]
Like your face (like your face)
Getting forced (getting forced) to the floor
(In a league of your own)
And either way (and either way)
You're way too close to it all
Too close to it all

VoB (Voice of Baceprot) - A Place for My Head (Linkin Park cover) Live at Trans7 2017

 VoB (Voice of Baceprot) - A Place for My Head 

I watch how the moon
Sits in the sky in the dark night
Shining with the light from the sun
And the sun doesn't give light to the moon assuming
The moon's going to owe it one
It makes me think of how you act to me
You do
Favors then rapidly, you just
Turn around and start asking me about
Things you want back from me
I'm sick of the tension, sick of the hunger
Sick of you acting like I owe you this
Find another place to feed your greed
While I find a place to rest
I want to be in another place
I hate when you say you don't understand
(You'll see it's not meant to be)
I want to be in the energy, not with the enemy
A place for my head

Maybe someday I'll be just like you and
Step on people like you do and
Run away all the people I thought I knew
I remember back then who you were
You used to be calm, used to be strong
Used to be generous but you should've known
That you'd
Wear out your welcome now you see
How quiet it is all alone
I'm so
Sick of the tension, sick of the hunger
Sick of you acting like I owe you this
Find another place to feed your greed
While I find a place to rest
I'm so
Sick of the tension, sick of the hunger
Sick of you acting like I owe you this
Find another place to feed your greed
While I find a place to rest

I want to be in another place
I hate when you say you don't understand
(You'll see it's not meant to be)
I want to be in the energy, not with the enemy
A place for my head

You try to take the best of me
Go away
You try to take the best of me
Go away
You try to take the best of me
Go away
You try to take the best of me
Go away
You try to take the best of me
Go away
You try to take the best of me
Go away
You try to take the best of me
Go away
You try to take the best of me
Go away

I want to be in another place
I hate when you say you don't understand
(You'll see it's not meant to be)
I want to be in the energy, not with the enemy
A place for my head

Stay away

I'm so sick of the tension, sick of the hunger (stay)
Sick of you acting like I owe you this
Find another place to feed your greed (a-)
While I find a place to rest

I'm so sick of the tension, sick of the hunger (-way)
Sick of you acting like I owe you this
Find another place, to feed your greed (stay away from me)
While I find a place to rest

 Sevendust - Angel's Son

Life is changing
I can't go on without you
Rearranging yeah
I will be strong
I'll stand by you

You were fighting everyday
So hard to hide the pain
I know you never said goodbye
I had so much left to say

One last song
Given to an Angel's Son
As soon as you were gone
As soon as you were gone

I have a new life now
She lives through you
What can I do
I feel so alone now
I pray for you
We still love you

You were fighting everyday
So hard to hide the pain
I know you never said goodbye
I had so much left to say

One last song
Given to an Angel's Son
As soon as you were gone
As soon as you were gone

One last song
(I can't believe you're gone)
Given to an Angel's Son
(I can't believe)
As soon as you were gone
(As soon as you were gone)
As soon as you were gone

The VANNS - Accomplice

 The VANNS - Accomplice

 Took a few years / but we got there / must’ve had the time for it / nobody said you can’t
park here / and you bet I got fined for it / if all my anger could split in two / I’d give half to
you / you’d never know / you just might see me on the news / talking on the street to a
stranger with a TV crew / honey, how ‘bout you / and I got it dead right / and I study the
streets at night / you know, there ain’t no use in sleeping / if you’re dreaming in black and
white / I justify all the time / such a crime to walk a fine line / hey, who knows / with you as
my accomplice / we might accomplish something / I’ve waited all my life to want this /
you’re my accomplice / you’re my accomplice / now you’re riding in the side car / I’m
heading somewhere we shouldn’t go / but if those bastards think they can take from us /
well it’s up to us to let ‘em know / ergo, it’s fair go / go on and hit ‘em with a counterblow /
hey, who knows / with you as my accomplice / we might accomplish something / I’ve
waited all my life to want this / you’re my accomplice / you’re my accomplice / if all my
anger could split in two / I’d give half to you / you’d never know / you just might see me on
the news / talking on the street to a stranger with a TV crew / yeah honey, how ‘bout you /
honey, how bout you

Dean Lewis - Escape

 Dean Lewis - Escape

 I would risk it all just to start again,
Throw my shit in my car, say goodbye to my friends
Turn the radio on, put a song in my head just so I can forget
I chased the path and pushed so hard past all the gates,
And all the guards that held me back from trying find my way

I just wanna get outta here,
Escape into the atmosphere,
To a place where no one even knows my name
I’ll take a rocketship and leave this place
Gonna fly me to a brighter day,
Oh I try my best but I just can’t escape

Won’t you take me high
Won’t you take me high

I came crashing down, and it hurt so bad
Almost made it out, but it brought me back
But the dreams I own are all I have, they are all I have

So I chased the path and pushed so hard past all the gates,
And all the guards that held me back from trying find my way

I just wanna get outta here,
Escape into the atmosphere,
To a place where no one even knows my name
I'll take a rocketship and leave this place
Gonna fly me to a brighter day,
Oh I try my best but I just can’t escape

Won’t you take me high
Won’t you take me high
Won’t you take me high
Won’t you take me high

Starset - The Future is Now

 Starset - The Future is Now


They said there was no way
But they forgot the black hole in the sky
Yesterday is nothing
I have half a life to rewrite
Flying into this future
I will let the science bring the change
This will be the final cure
I am gonna take the past away

With the full force
Of a dying star
I will find you
If you’re near or far
Wherever you are

Floating through forever
I am stealing the energy
Endlessly endeavor
This is finding infinity
I’m falling through a dark sunrise
I will escape the entropy
And find a way to leave this time
I will bring you back to me

The Pretty Reckless - Dear God

 The Pretty Reckless - Dear God

And the fear upon my shoulder
And my body getting older
Will he want me when he’s sober
Close my eyes and bend me over
What was I thinking
What was I thinking
What was I thinking

Dear God, can you lift me up
Can you take me higher
Dear God, can you lift me up
Keep me from the fire
And all the neighbors whisper isn’t it a shame
That little girl we knew has surely gone insane

Now my teeth are getting longer
And my will is getting stronger
When she’s wilting will you want her
Do your worst and roll me over
What was I thinking
What was I thinking
What was I thinking

Dear God, can you lift me up
Can you take me higher
Dear God, can you lift me up
Keep me from the fire
And all the neighbors whisper isn’t it a shame
That little girl we knew has clearly gone insane

I just wanna go to heaven
I don’t wanna stay in hell
I just wanna stay in heaven
And I’ll be well
I’ll be well

And the fear upon my shoulder
And my body getting colder
When she’s crying will you hold her
Wake me up let this be over

Dear God, can you lift me up
Can you take me higher
Dear God, can you lift me up
Keep me from the fire

Dear God, can you lift me up
Can you take me higher
Dear God, can you lift me up
Keep me from the fire

And all the neighbors run and hide their kids away
That little girl they knew has surely gone insane

Talking Heads - And She Was

 Talking Heads - And She Was

And she was lying in the grass
And she could hear the highway breathing
And she could see a nearby factory
She's making sure she is not dreaming
See the lights of a neighbor's house
Now she's starting to rise
Take a minute to concentrate
And she opens up her eyes

The world was moving she was right there with it and she was
The world was moving she was floating above it and she was
and she was

And she was drifting through the backyard
And she was taking off her dress
And she was moving very slowly
Rising up above the earth
Moving into the universe
And she's drifting this way and that
Not touching the ground at all
And she's up above the yard

The world was moving she was right there with it and she was
(Hey, hey)
The world was moving she was floating above it and she was

Hey, hey, hey

And she was proud about it... no doubt about it
She isn't sure about what she's done
No time to think about what to tell him
No time to think about what she's done
And she was

Hey hey, hey hey, hey!

And she was looking at herself
And things were looking like a movie
She had a pleasant elevation
She's moving out in all directions
Oh, oh oh

Hey hey hey (repeated..)

The world was moving she was right there with it and she was
Hey, woo hoo
The world was moving she was floating above it and she was
Hey, hey

Joining the world of missing persons and she was
Missing enough but feeling all right and she was

Ha ha
And she was
(repeated..)

Common People - Blue Eyes

 Common People - Blue Eyes

Ya I got a sweet tooth
Take my chances
Lose my senses
I get too loose
And I get reckless
Tear down fences
Break in through the door I hit the floor just to feel alive
I don’t want to kill this high
Wish it’d last all night
Cut me loose
Bleed it out
Tell the truth
Play it down
Cut me loose
Round it down
Drown it out
You only love me when you’re lonely
You get your kicks and then you let me down
You’re taking pieces of me slowly
You held my heart so you can rip it out
You try to tell me that you know me
It still ain’t easy when you cut me down
You only love me when you’re lonely
You come around and then you kick me out
With those blue eyes
Man it seemed fool proof
Time feels endless
Don’t ask questions
Dancing on a thin roof
I don’t watch where I’m stepping
Like to keep them guessing
Heard it all before I just ignore don’t you realize
I don’t want kill this high
Wish it’d last all night
Cut me loose
Bleed it out
Tell the truth
Play it down
Cut me loose
Round it down
Drown it out
You only love me when you’re lonely
You get your kicks and then you let me down
You’re taking pieces of me slowly
You held my heart so you can rip it out
You try to tell me that you know me
It still ain’t easy when you cut me down
You only love me when you’re lonely
You come around and then you kick me out
With those blue eyes
You only love me when you’re lonely
You get your kicks and then you let me down
You’re taking pieces of me slowly
You held my heart so you can rip it out
You try to tell me that you know me
It still ain’t easy when you cut me down
You only love me when you’re lonely
You come around and then you kick me out
With those blue eyes

Delta Spirit - Devil Knows You're Dead   

May the wind be always at your back
And the sun shine warm upon your face
May the rains fall soft upon your field
Until the day we meet again
 

And the roof that hangs over your head
Find you shelter from the storm
 

Before the devil knows you're dead
May you be in heaven, my friend
 

May good luck find you at your worst
And bad love lose you at your best
May your days be rich and full of wealth
And your nights be long when you need rest
 

And the roof that hangs over your head
Find you shelter from the storm
 

Before the devil knows you're dead
May you be in heaven, my friend
 

And the road, may it rise to meet your feet
And be downhill all the way to your door
May the grass below be green and the sky above be blue
May it be so forever more
 

And the roof that hangs over your head
Find you shelter from the storm
 

Before the devil knows you're dead
May you be in heaven, my friend

transcript in English


I have searched where everyone has searched

Behind every well‑worn plow

And I have seen what everyone has seen

Tree after tree, but never a forest

Then you walked a path toward cliffs and edges

Through a soul that had been pledged away

On the shoreline, out at the edge

of the salt, I found a way

In the fire and the flames Far from reason

and everything I find you

On the shoreline Out at the edge

of the wather salt

In the fire and the flames Far from reason

and everything I find you

Tell me all the things that I wanna hear

You really know how to dance
When you go up, down, jump around
Think about true romance, yeah

Gonna camp in my sleeping bag I'm not gonna move
Got some words on cardboard, got your picture in my hand
Saying, "If you see this girl can you tell her where I am?"

Some try to hand me money, they don't understand
I'm not broke - I'm just a broken-hearted man
I know it makes no sense but what else can I do?
How can I move on when I'm still in love with you?

'Cause if one day you wake up and find that you're missing me
And your heart starts to wonder where on this earth I could be
Thinking maybe you'll come back here to the place that we'd meet
And you'll see me waiting for you on the corner of the street

So I'm not moving, I'm not moving

Policeman says, "Son, you can't stay here"
I said, "There's someone I'm waiting for if it's a day, a month, a year
Gotta stand my ground even if it rains or snows
If she changes her mind this is the first place she will go"

'Cause if one day you wake up and find that you're missing me
And your heart starts to wonder where on this earth I could be
Thinking maybe you'll come back here to the place that we'd meet
And you'll see me waiting for you on the corner of the street

So I'm not moving, I'm not moving
I'm not moving, I'm not moving

People talk about the guy who's waiting on a girl, oh, oh
There are no holes in his shoes but a big hole in his world, hmm

And maybe I'll get famous as the man who can't be moved
Maybe you won't mean to but you'll see me on the news
And you'll come running to the corner
'Cause you'll know it's just for you
I'm the man who can't be moved
I'm the man who can't be moved

'Cause if one day you wake up, and find that you're missing me
(Find you're missing me)
And your heart starts to wonder where on this Earth I could be
(Oh, where on Earth I could be)
Thinking maybe you'll come back here to the place that we'd meet
(To the place that we'd meet, oh, oh)
And you'll see me waiting for you, on the corner of the street
(On the corner of the street)

'Cause if one day you wake up, and find that you're missing me
(So I'm not moving)
And your heart starts to wonder where on this Earth I could be
(I'm not moving)
Thinking maybe you'll come back here to the place that we'd meet
(I'm not moving)
And you'll see me waiting for you, on the corner of the street
(I'm not moving)

Going back to the corner where I first saw you
Gonna camp in my sleeping bag, I'm not gonna move

 Brandi Carlile - Life on the Run

Moonshine in the shape of a lifeline
Hasn't it been a long time
Since you came up for air
Are we dancing on a fine line
Ain't it just like a smile line
To leave you standing by the roadside sign
With your thumb in the air
Oh let the warm wind blow
And may you never know when the good times go
Rolling away
Baby we need a holiday
On our westbound way to our day in the sun
Just leave them cursing the morning
They don't pay you to live this way
No race down here has ever been won
It won't help you to hold on tight
Read the books you could never get it right
You're just a moment of starlight
Spinning out on a stone
We're getting off of the merry-go-round
Don't let the bastards get you down
We all come from lost and found
To the great unknown
Oh let the warm wind blow
And may you never know when the good times go
Rolling away
Baby we need a holiday
On our westbound way to our day in the sun
Just leave them cursing the morning
They don’t pay you to live this way
No race down here has ever been won
Oh baby, don't we need a holiday
On our westbound way to our day in the sun
Just leave them cursing the morning
They don't pay you to live this way
No race down here has ever been won
Living your life on the run
Living your life on the run
Oh, they need a holiday

 Fleurie - If I Was A Bird

If I was a bird I’d fly to you
Take you anywhere you want me to
Without you i cant live
Hope you can forgive this state of mine
If I was a bird I’d fly to you

I’d fly to you
I’d fly to you
I’d fly to you
I’d fly to you

If I was a bird I’d fly to you
I don’t have the wings you want me to
Without you I’m a sky, stars removed
A house without a roof
Staring at the the dark side of the moon
If I had the wings, I’d fly to you

I’d fly to you
I’d fly to you
I’d fly to you
I’d fly to you

If I had the words I would write them down
Send them through the sky but I’m stuck here on the ground
If I had a way to reach you now I would

If you could only see if you only knew
just how much it hurts that I can't be next to you
If I had a way, you know I would
If I had the wings I’d fly to you, to you
I’d fly to you, that's what I’d do

I'd fly to you
I'd fly to you
I'd fly to you
I'd fly to you

Niall Horan - End of an Era 

We had it, pure magic 
Remembering what it was like 
Time passes so fast that 
I couldn't tell you goodbye 
 
Two strings crying ’bout coming undone 
Shadows laughing ’bout their days in the sun 
Tears fall down like the future comes 
Slowly, and then all at once 
 
Feels like letting go of 
Things we’re not supposed to 
One breath and it’s over 
The end of an era 
Feels like letting go of 
Someone I want more of 
One breath and it’s over 
The end of an era 
 
Twisted and terrified 
How things change overnight 
Footsteps we can’t rewind 
 
Careless times yeah we sure had some 
Naive eyes yeah we sure look young 
Tears fall down like the future comes 
Slowly, and then all at once 
 
Feels like letting go of 
Things we’re not supposed to 
One breath and it’s over 
The end of an era 
Feels like letting go of 
Someone I want more of 
One breath and it’s over 
The end of an era 
 
(It’s the end of a) 
(It’s the end of a) 
(It’s the end of a) 
 
Feels like letting go of 
Things we’re not supposed to 
One breath and it’s over 
The end of an era 
So hard letting go of 
Someone I want more of 
One breath and it’s over 
The end of an era 
 
The end of an era 
The end of an era 
The end of an era 
The end of an era 

Philippians Chapter One

 1    PAUL and Timotheus, the servants of Jesus Christ, to all the saints in Christ Jesus which are at
    Philippi, with the bishops and deacons:

2    Grace be unto you, and peace, from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ.

3    I thank my God upon every remembrance of you,

4    Always in every prayer of mine for you all making request with joy,

5    For your fellowship in the gospel from the first day until now;

6    Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform it
    until the day of Jesus Christ:

7    Even as it is meet for me to think this of you all, because I have you in my heart;  inasmuch as
    both in my bonds, and in the defence and confirmation of the gospel, ye all are partakers of my grace.

8    For God is my record, how greatly I long after you all in the bowels of Jesus Christ.

9    And this I pray, that your love may abound yet more and more in knowledge and in all judgment;

10    That ye may approve things that are excellent;  that ye may be sincere and without offence till the
    day of Christ;

11    Being filled with the fruits of righteousness, which are by Jesus Christ, unto the glory and praise of God.

12    But I would ye should understand, brethren, that the things which happened unto me have fallen out
    rather unto the furtherance of the gospel;

13    So that my bonds in Christ are manifest in all the palace, and in all other places;

14    And many of the brethren in the Lord, waxing confident by my bonds, are much more bold to speak
    the word without fear.

15    Some indeed preach Christ even of envy and strife;  and some also of good will:

16    The one preach Christ of contention, not sincerely, supposing to add affliction to my bonds:

17    But the other of love, knowing that I am set for the defence of the gospel.

18    What then?  notwithstanding, every way, whether in pretence, or in truth, Christ is preached;
    and I therein do rejoice, yea, and will rejoice.

19    For I know that this shall turn to my salvation through your prayer, and the supply of the Spirit
    of Jesus Christ,

20    According to my earnest expectation and my hope, that in nothing I shall be ashamed, but that
    with all boldness, as always, so now also Christ shall be magnified in my body, whether it be by
    life, or by death.

21    For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain.

22    But if I live in the flesh, this is the fruit of my labour:  yet what I shall choose I wot not.

23    For I am in a strait betwixt two, having a desire to depart, and to be with Christ;  which is far better:

24    Nevertheless to abide in the flesh is more needful for you.

25    And having this confidence, I know that I shall abide and continue with you all for your furtherance
    and joy of faith;

26    That your rejoicing may be more abundant in Jesus Christ for me by my coming to you again.

27    Only let your conversation be as it becometh the gospel of Christ:  that whether I come and see you,
    or else be absent,  I may hear of your affairs, that ye stand fast in one spirit, with one mind striving
    together for the faith of the gospel;

28    And in nothing terrified by your adversaries:  which is to them an evident token of perdition,
    but to you of salvation, and that of God.

29    For unto you it is given in the behalf of Christ, not only to believe on him, but also to suffer for his sake;

30    Having the same conflict which ye saw in me, and now hear to be in me.

The HU - Lost Soul (feat. Jonny Hawkins of NOTHING MORE)

The HU - Lost Soul  

lyrics in English

Born to be a lost soul, ooh 
Born to be a lost soul, ooh 
Oh anywhere the wind goes, you go 

In the delusion 

We keep moving in circles 
Feel the desert air on my skin 
I get back on the path again 
But it feels like the wrong one

Amidst the delusion 
Have we pretended to be know-it-alls 
For a while, haven’t we

Amidst the delusion have we sated with 
Bad mouthing all the others, haven’t we 

Take the wheel and drive 
In the delusion 
Take the wheel and drive

You are lost in delusion 

Amidst the delusion, illusion and collision, 
The body temperature is dropped low 

Born to be a lost soul, yeah 
Yeah
Out of illusion watch and see 
Anywhere the wind goes, you go 

Head your own way 
Head your own way
Head your own way 

You are lost in delusion 
With your tongue grown forked 
 
You are lost in delusion 
With your ears blocked at canals 

Amidst the delusion have we pretended 
To be know-it-alls for a while, haven’t we 

Amidst the delusion have we sated with 
Flatteries of others,  lost in falsities, haven’t we 
 
Take the wheel and drive 
In the delusion 
Take the wheel and drive 
In the delusion, you’ve got all lost 

Amidst the delusion, illusion and collision, 
The body temperature is dropped low 

Born to be a lost soul, (yeah)
Yeah
Born to be a lost soul

Out of illusion watch and see 
Anywhere the wind goes, you go 

Head your own way

 
Out of illusion watch and see 

Without getting lost amidst the fog 
Head your own way 

In the delusion 

Head your own way 

Born to be lost soul 
(In the delusion)
Born to be lost soul 

Baby I’m just tired of all this wandering 
Born to be a lost soul 

(You are lost)
(You are lost  in delusion)
(Amidst the delusion, illusion and collision)
(The body temperature is dropped low)


Take the wheel and drive 

You are lost in delusion 
Take the wheel and drive 

In the delusion, you’ve got all lost
Amidst the delusion, 
Illusion and collision, 
The body temperature is dropped low 

Born to be lost soul 
Born to be a lost soul (yeah) 
Yeah 
Anywhere the wind goes, you go 

Head your own way
Head your own way
Head your own way
Head your own way 

Noah Gunderson - You & Me

 Noah Gunderson - You & Me

Thank God I found you, fallen angel
Hanging heavy on my mind
I thought when I get older, I won't get anxious
But I get anxious all the time
I thought I was a real boy
I thought I was a king
I thought I was a Casanova, doing my thing
But I've got a bad habit of picking up habits that I can't handle too good

But you and me
Is the only thing I know I'll never get over
You and me
And if we both should die tonight
I've had the time of my life with you

Some might say it's kinda reckless
Some might say it's just plain dumb
To go out walking with no direction
Just the direction that you're from
But I've got a strong mother and a strong father
And I've been set upon my path
So I'll keep kicking up dirt in your favorite shirt
Just trying to make you laugh

Because you and me
Is the only thing I know I'll never get over
You and me
And if we both should die tonight
I've had the time of my life
With you and me
Is the only thing I know I'll never get over
You and me
And if we both should die tonight
I've had the time of my life with you

Maroon 5 - She Will Be Loved (Live 8 Philadelphia 2005)

Maroon 5 - She Will Be Loved 

Beauty queen of only eighteen
She had some trouble with herself
He was always there to help her
She always belonged to someone else

I drove for miles and miles and wound up at your door
I've had you so many times but somehow I want more

I don't mind spending every day
Out on your corner in the pouring rain
Look for the girl with the broken smile
Ask her if she wants to stay a while
And she will be loved
And she will be loved

Tap on my window, knock on my door
I want to make you feel beautiful
I know I tend to get so insecure
Doesn't matter anymore

It's not always rainbows and butterflies
It's compromise that moves us along, yeah
My heart is full and my door's always open
You come any time you want, yeah

I don't mind spending every day
Out on your corner in the pouring rain
Look for the girl with the broken smile
Ask her if she wants to stay a while
And she will be loved
And she will be loved
And she will be loved
And she will be loved

I know where you hide alone in your car
Know all of the things that make you who you are
I know that goodbye means nothing at all
Comes back and makes me catch her every time she falls
Yeah

Tap on my window, knock on my door
I want to make you feel beautiful

I don't mind spending every day
Out on your corner in the pouring rain
Look for the girl with the broken smile
Ask her if she wants to stay a while
And she will be loved
And she will be loved
And she will be loved
(Please don't try so hard to say goodbye)
And she will be loved

Please don't try so hard to say goodbye
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, ooh)
Please don't try so hard to say goodbye

(I don't mind spending every day, ooh)
Out on your corner in the pouring rain

Please don't try so hard to say goodbye

Fastball - Out of My Head (live @Sirius XM)

 Fastball - Out of My Head

Sometimes I feel
Like I am drunk behind the wheel
The wheel of possibility
However it may roll
Give it a spin
See if you can somehow factor in
You know there's always more than one way
To say exactly what you mean to say

Was I out of my head? Was I out of my mind?
How could I have ever been so blind?
I was waiting for an indication
It was hard to find
Don't matter what I say only what I do
I never mean to do bad things to you
So quiet but I finally woke up
If you're sad then it's time you spoke up too

Was I out of my head? Was I out of my mind?
How could I have ever been so blind?
I was waiting for an indication
It was hard to find
Don't matter what I say only what I do
I never mean to do bad things to you
So quiet but I finally woke up
If you're sad then it's time you spoke up too

Was I out of my head? Was I out of my mind?
How could I have ever been so blind?
I was waiting for an invitation
It was hard to find
Don't matter what I say only what I do
I never mean to do bad things to you
So quiet but I finally woke up
If you're sad
Then it's time you spoke up
Too

Pierce The Veil - Today I Saw The Whole World

 Pierce The Veil - Today I Saw The Whole World

Baby, pour over
Tell me, are we concrete?
What would you do without my perfect company to your undressed spine?
And I can hear you drag behind my car by your broken legs 
Swallowing stitches in her sleep 
As she stole my only view, may I never blink 

While you stood over the pavement 
I was biting the curb
Cheap entertainment
But I'll bet it feels good coming down 
Can't bear to wash out the wasted time
Between your lips and mine

Zero friends
Followed your voice into a sea of crosses
She blends in with the foxes gold and feels like home
Under the surface my love 
But beware, beware, beware 
And take it slow tonight  
We're on the other side of the road 
I think we're bleeding out 

While you stood over the pavement 
I was biting the curb
Sick entertainment
But I'll bet it feels good coming down 
Can't bear to wash out the wasted time
Between our lips 
So c'mon and swing it back and forth just like 
My heart is on a pendulum tonight 
If your lungs are mine 
I only wanna watch your clouds linger in the darkness

Oh, can't you feel it 
You're feeding on my restless soul 
Oh, can't you see that
It's never enough, it's never enough

Today I saw the whole world 
And I think heaven has a plot to take my life 
Listen, I'm the one who made you 
I'll be the one who brings you down
But this will be the last time 

Bite on the curb 
Sick entertainment
Oh, I'll bet it feels good when you're coming down 
Can't bear to wash out the wasted time
Between our lips 
So c'mon and swing it back and forth just like 
My heart is on a pendulum tonight 
If your lungs are mine 
I only wanna watch your clouds linger in the darkness

 Noah Gundersen w/ Nate Bergman - Bands With Managers

Bands with managers are going places
Bands with messy hair and smooth white faces
But you don't believe when I say
That it won't be alright, alright
 

Bands with fifteen passengers are rolling over
But I trust T. William Walsh
And I'm not afraid to die
 

But you don't believe when I say
That it won't be alright, alright
That it won't be alright, alright
'Cause it won't be alright, alright

SOFIA ISELLA - The Chicken is Naked and Afraid

 SOFIA ISELLA - The Chicken is Naked and Afraid

Throat stuffed with apology .
Hands are red and caught by me .
You’re attempting romance outside in the grass .
You perfectly resemble a dumbass .

Caught the truth right by the tail .
That animal keeps on calling .
Saw you naked and afraid 
And all your clothes are hiding nothing .

And my god do you look sad .
The chicken’s out of the bag .
Curiosity’s instilled .
I’m the cat and I got killed again .

I’ll break the bullet and I’ll bite the end .
This is disappointing news for both of us, my friend .
There’s nothing to you, and that’s very sad .
I looked for depth in a dick, that’s my bad .

You threw yourself under the bus .
The bush is beaten
cause I took the stick and it’s Get The Job Done season .
They say I’m the shit and I am .
I am the shit sir, and I hit the fan .

Caught the truth right by the tail .
That animal keeps on calling .
Saw you naked and afraid .
And all your clothes are hiding nothing .

And my god do you look sad .
The chicken’s out of the bag .
Curiosity’s instilled .
I’m the cat and I got killed again .

And oh if I didn’t like my lungs, I’d suck on cigarettes like a thumb
in all my cinematic contrasting glory
and watch you stumble to make up a story .

Oh class what’s the takeaway ?
The chicken is naked and afraid .
Oh what’d we learn today ?
The chicken is naked and afraid .

Oh the agony .
Oh the distress .
Oh between 5’2 and 6’5 .
Haunted by green, blue, black eyes .
Oh I’m in such pain
About what’s-his-name .

The life of me can’t recount  
Who this f---ing song’s about .
Oh I’m in such pain
About what’s-his-name .

Ren - Seven Sins

 Ren - Seven Sins

Salwch yw fy athrawen  Illness is my teacher
Fe dorrodd fy ngwên   It broke my smile
Mae fy esgyrn yn teimlo'n hen   My bones feel old
Yma y gorwedd corff Ren    Here lies the body of Ren

I lay broken on the kitchen floor
I clawed at the laminate
Pain wandered my body, an uninvited guest
Bones of a home where the devil could rest
I cursed the gods, cursed my messiah, cursed my maker, I cursed all of creation
There I lay, feeble and thin
(Sick boi, sick boi, seven my sins)

Have you ever felt pain?
Stomach wrenching, unrelenting, tell me
Have you ever felt pain?
Condescending, muscles clenching, tell me
Have you ever felt pain?
A rose emerges from the pavement cracks
They'll write my eulogy with broken glass
Eternal parallax, pain

Pain - the author, I accept this
Pain the teacher, bruised apprentice
Pain resisting, pain will come
Pain the mother, I'm the son
Pain that splits you in two when it hits you
The dark and the light are converged to one
Pain that twists you, the Heavens dismiss you
The Father, the Ghost, and the Holy Son

Body bags, body bags, body-bagging me
Zip it up quick if things don't be
I search for peace in the belly of a beast
Sick boi, sick boi, onomatopoeia
Running up a fever, followin' a leader
Wanna be me, ha? Grass isn't greener
Bright light seizure, dynamite dealer (Hya)
Dine at the table of the coroner, eat up, f---
Thirteen years and I've been feelin' so stuck
Lucky number thirteen, just my luck (Shi)
Empires tumble, rubbles and dust
The universe shrinks and the planets combust (Bla)
In God we trust
God tied a noose to his neck and he walked to the edge and he jumped
Angels wept
And I beared witness watching the whole thing unfold from my bed
A bed where I never deep rest, a bed where I'm always depressed
A bed with a human oppressed
A bed for the tomb where I slept
A bed in this room that's a womb for this mess
Sick boi, bitten by a tick boy, tell me how it feels to be buried while you breathe (Bla)
Stones and sticks, boy, pain is a gift, boy, hard to make a stand when you crawl on your knees and I kneel

I kneel at the altar of my own disease and I beg
I begged the sky for mercy
Mercy never came, life did me dirty
Thirty-three and hurting, cursing
Jesus died at thirty-three and still, my sins are lurking
Gears are turning, future stays uncertain
Surgeon incision, murder ambition
(Fear of the unknown preserves a religion
Denounced the gods when my body went missing)

Back then, the pain sprayed ricocheted like a MAC-10
Hot lead, hit the bed I was trapped in
Red wings, seraphim, one of God's grace
Cried tears from Heaven like Clapton
Stick pins in a voodoo, Hendrix
Thick skin, stay humble, Kendrick
Stay skeptic, check the biometrics
Bloodstain, crime scene, forensics

Lights on, lights out
Fade into the background
Slow down, slow down
Runnin' from the silhouette of self-doubt
By now, by now
Really should've figured this shit out
Lights on, lights out
Smackdown

Let it be, let it be, quote John Lennon
Click-clack, John got shot for attention
What does that tell you about the good of intentions?
Bitterness formed in the storm of aggression
Prophets get dropped, imagining heaven
Martin Luther, Mahatma - deadened
Six, six, followed by six and seven
Build 'em, praise 'em, bury 'em, dead 'em

I was born to be half a man with half a chance
My heart is in half; half-righteous, half is damned
And half a gram, heart goes, troubles end
Thoughts stay darker than Uruk-Hai's masterplan
Sharper than glass, shards splinter and
Sinner man, sinner man, irony could kill a man
Pain makes money when the music lands, expand
Pay me my cheese, rain down parmesan

Six followed by seven
Seven whole sins for a self-made Armageddon
Sin one: Pride
Pride makes a man kill a man for his ego to survive
Sin two: Lust
Lust makes the grass look greener, crucifies trust
Sin three: Gluttony
Humans consume and consume, planet Earth gets a frontal lobotomy
Four: Sloth
Rinse and repeat, reruns, repeat, time lost
Sin five: Envy
That's when one man's win is an another man's frenzy
Sin six: Wrath
Rage, vengeance, kill it, psychopath
Sin seven: Greed
Greed plants a seed that will destroy us all if we succumb to greed
If we take what we need, then take more than we need, then our oceans will bleed
Still, we feed and we feed and we sleep and repeat
Then we exile the shepherds and follow the sheep
We inherit the mean
We inherit this world that we bruised and we beat
We inherit this vanity, circles of greed
Inherit the liars, the murderous thieves
One sin for every one day of the week

The Cranberries - Dreams (Dir. Peter Scammell)

The Cranberries - Dreams 

Oh, my life is changing everyday,

In every possible way.
And oh, my dreams, it's never quite as it seems,
Never quite as it seems.

I know I've felt like this before, but now I'm feeling it even more,
Because it came from you.
And then I open up and see the person falling here is me,
A different way to be.

Ah, la da ah...
La...

I want more impossible to ignore,
Impossible to ignore.
And they'll come true, impossible not to do,
Impossible not to do.

And now I tell you openly, you have my heart so don't hurt me.
You're what I couldn't find.
A totally amazing mind, so understanding and so kind;
You're everything to me.

Oh, my life,
Is changing every day,
In every possible way.

And oh, my dreams,
It's never quite as it seems,
'Cause you're a dream to me,
Dream to me.

Ah, da, da da da, da, la...

English Beat - Save It For Later

 English Beat - Save It For Later

Two dozen other dirty lovers
Must be a sucker for it
Cry, cry, but I don't need my mother
Just hold my hand while I come to a decision on it
Sooner or later
Your legs give way, you hit the ground
Save it for later
Don't run away and let me down
Sooner or later
You hit the deck, you'll get found out
Save it for later
Don't run away and let me down, you let me down
Black air and seven seas and rotten through
But what can you do?
I don't know how I'm meant to act with all you lot
Sometimes I don't try
I just na, na, na, na, na, na
Na, na, na, na, now
Na, na, na, na, na, na
Na, na, na, na, now (now, now, now, now)
Sooner or later
Your legs give way, you hit the ground
Save it for later
Don't run away and let me down
Sooner or later
You hit the deck, you'll get found out
Save it for later
Don't run away and let me down, you let me down
You run away, run away, and let me down
Two dozen other stupid reasons
Why we should suffer for this?
Don't bother trying to explain them
Just hold my hand while I come to a decision on it
Sooner or later
Your legs give way, you hit the ground
Save it for later
Don't run away and let me down
Sooner or later
You hit the deck, you'll get found out
Save it for later
Don't run away and let me down, you let me down
You run away, run away, run away, run away
Run away, run away, and let me down
Da, da, da, da, da
Da, da, da, da, da, da, da
Da, da, da, da, da, da, da
Da, da, da, da, da, da, da
Da, da, da, da, da, da, da
Da, da, da, run away, run
Run away, run away
Run away, run away
Run away, run away
Run away and let me down

The Pretty Reckless - Only Love Can Save Me Now

 The Pretty Reckless - Only Love Can Save Me Now

Heavens falling out of the sky 
Sends a message to you, and I 
See people crawling out of their trees 
Chained to sickness, the dogs are free 
I want to be saved 
From the sound, the sound 
The world is spitting out 
Only love can save me now 
Gone so down 
Lost is all I found 
Only love can save me now 
Drowning madly in deep blue seas 
Waves of sadness swallow me 
No soul can hear me beneath the weight 
No gods or saviors, no hands of fate 
I want to be saved 
From the sound, the sound 
The world is spitting out 
Only love can save me now 
Gone so down 
Lost is all I found 
Only love can save me now

Of Monsters and Men - Dirty Paws (live on KEXP)

Of Monsters and Men - Dirty Paws 

Jumping up and down the floor,
My head is an animal.
And once there was an animal,
It had a son that mowed the lawn.
The son was an ok guy,
They had a pet dragonfly.
The dragonfly it ran away
But it came back with a story to say.

Her dirty paws and furry coat,
She ran down the forest slope.
The forest of talking trees,
They used to sing about the birds and the bees.

The bees had declared a war,
The sky wasn't big enough for them all.
The birds, they got help from below,
From dirty paws and the creatures of snow.

And for a while things were cold,
They were scared down in their holes.
The forest that once was green
Was colored black by those killing machines.
But she and her furry friends
Took down the queen bee and her men.
And that's how the story goes,
The story of the beast with those four dirty paws.

Lukas Graham - Second Chance

Lukas Graham - Second Chance 

Grew up with no safe place to land
No purpose or a plan
Just hopin' to survive
My reckless heart fits in your hands
Ways I'll never understand
To be forever by your side

[Chorus]
Now with your love
I got a second chance and I don't wanna waste it
Don't wanna waste it
You handed me a second chance and I don't wanna waste it
Don't wanna waste it
With you
Took too long for me to understand
You are the only one that I ever needed
I got a second chance and I don't wanna waste it
Don't wanna waste it
With you

[Verse 2]
With every step, with evеry fall
You stayed there right through it all
You could'vе walked a thousand times
But here we are and here's the truth
There's nothin' that I wouldn't do
Make sure to make it you and I

 [Chorus]
I got a second chance and I don't wanna waste it
Don't wanna waste it
You handed me a second chance and I don't wanna waste it
Don't wanna waste it
With you
Took too long for me to understand
You are the only one that I ever needed
I got a second chance and I don't wanna waste it
Don't wanna waste it
With you

[Bridge]
Restless soul, blood run cold
You took my pieces and made me whole
Lonely road, that's all I've known
You found my pieces and brought me home

[Chorus]
I got a second chance and I don't wanna waste it
Don't wanna waste it
You handed me a second chance and I don't wanna waste it
Don't wanna waste it
With you
Took too long for me to understand
You are the only one that I ever needed
I got a second chance and I don't wanna waste it
Don't wanna waste it
With you

Lola Young - From Down Here (From The Water)

 Lola Young - From Down Here

From down here 
From down here 
From down here 
 
From down here 
From down here 
From down here 
 
Put on my birthday dress, it’s not for a whole damn year 
I wanna look the part, don’t want to disappear 
 
Get up on the table, but I can’t dance 
Try at conversation, don’t know where to start 
But it’s my favourite place, so why do I hate it here? 
 
I miss the high from down here 
I used to fly around here 
Not quite alive, I’m somewhere in between 
I miss the high from down here 
 
I’m between a rock and the hardest place 
Can I make them laugh? Can I make them stay? 
Sitting on the sofa doesn’t feel right 
Somebody comes over throwing me a line 
That’s not me tonight, I’m so sorry mate 
 
I miss the high from down here 
I used to fly around here 
Not quite alive, I’m somewhere in between 
I miss the high  
 
And i know it’s not right to long for parts of that life 
But can I just reminisce tonight? 
Acting my age, turning a page 
But what a boring book it would’ve been anyway 
 
I miss the high from down here (anyway) 
I used to fly around here (anyway) Not quite alive, I’m somewhere in between 
I miss the high 

Dirty Heads - Celebrate feat. The Unlikely Candidates

Dirty Heads - Celebrate  

Mom if you can hear me, I think I made it
20, 000 fans from the stage I'm standing on
I want you to know I appreciate it
One day I'll come home, we can celebrate
Mom I gotta go, the curtain's calling
All the way from Rome, I'm really sorry
Tell my little sister I said hey
One day I'll come home, we can celebrate
 

Yeah these late nights and these long drives
Full moons under dark skies
Tears fall behind phone screens
Lonely hearts lead to bad dreams
Wish that I could be there for you
I hope that life will be fair for you
It's hard to sleep 'cause I'm always thinking
And passing out off of codeine
And I hope you know that I'm not complaining
Hope you know I appreciate it
Every day is just filled with love
Man every day is just thanks and praises
But memories of your birthdays, they get me in the worst ways
When you say, "dad, it's okay"
When you get home we can celebrate
 

Mom if you can hear me, I think I made it
20, 000 fans from the stage I'm standing on
I want you to know I appreciate it
One day I'll come home, we can celebrate
Mom I gotta go, the curtain's calling
All the way from Rome, I'm really sorry
Tell my little sister I said hey
One day I'll come home, we can celebrate
 

Not the money, not the fame
Love the struggle, love the pain
After all that we have gained
We realize we're all the same
Sacrifice my brothers cried
We've been gone when family died
Losing my focus, symphonies open
Singing my opus, just for a moment
One day I'll get home and we can throw a big party
Invite other people that helped us get started to
To all of you artists that feel a martyr
Don't ever give up, you just gotta go harder
 

Mom if you can hear me, I think I made it
20, 000 fans from the stage I'm standing on
I want you to know I appreciate it
One day I'll come home, we can celebrate
Mom I gotta go, the curtain's calling
All the way from Rome, I'm really sorry
Tell my little sister I said hey
One day I'll come home, we can celebrate
 

Every night feels like another weekend
Keep pretending that it's easy
Sold my soul for a wrecking ball
I shot at the moon but I mostly fall
 

Mom if you can hear me, I think I made it
20, 000 fans from the stage I'm standing on
I want you to know I appreciate it
One day I'll come home, we can celebrate
Mom I gotta go, the curtain's calling
All the way from Rome, I'm really sorry
Tell my little sister I said hey
One day I'll come home, we can celebrate
One day I'll come home, we can celebrate

Poets of the Fall - Cradled in Love (live in Moscow 2013)

 Poets of the Fall - Cradled in Love

You had the blue note sapphire eyes,
To back up all those gazes
To pierce my guard and to take my soul off,
to faraway places
Told me I'll never be alone, 
'Cause you're right there

We took a gamble with this love,
Like sailing to the storm
With the waves rushing over to take us,
We were battling against the tide
You were my beacon of salvation, 
I was your starlight

So don't cry for your love,
Cry tears of joy
'Cause you're alive,
cradled in love
Don't cry for your love,
Cry tears of joy
'Cause you're alive,
cradled in love

I kept the love you gave me alive,
And now I carry it with me
I know it's just a tear drop from mother earth,
But in it I can hear a dolphin sing
Telling me I'll never be alone,
I know you're right there

So with the fire still burning bright,
I wanna gaze into your light
If I could see my fortune there,
You know how flames can hypnotize
Do I even dare to speak out your name for fear,
It sounds like, like a lover

So don't cry for your love, 
cry tears of joy
'Cause you're alive,
cradled in love

So don't cry for your love, 
cry tears of joy
'Cause you're alive,
cradled in love

 Khalid, Lauv - Tied Up

[Verse 1: Khalid & Lauv]
I put my best shirt on for you
But it doesn't even matter
Am I enough for you, my dear?
As I fall into your pattern

[Pre-Chorus: Lauv]
Swear you didn't mean it, to cover up the hurt
Love me and you leave me, then you pay me dirt
But all I ever needed is a chance I never got
We used to be so even, now we're not

[Chorus: Khalid & Lauv]
Oh, there I go again
So invested, I'm tied up to you, tied up to you
I only make a mess of my head
Especially whеn I'm tied up to you, tied up to you

[Post-Chorus: Lauv]
To you, to you (Oh, I'm tied up, oh, I'm tiеd up)
To you, to you (Oh, I'm tied up, oh, I'm tied up)

[Verse 2: Lauv]
Never imagined a love so catastrophic (Love so catastrophic)
Wait till our heaven, we burn down like a comet (We burn down like a comet)
Thought I'd be your next man, we had a spark and we lost it (We lost it)
Used to be my best friend, now friendship isn't an option

[Pre-Chorus: Khalid]
Swear you didn't mean it, to cover up the hurt
Love me and you leave me, then you pay me dirt
All I ever needed is a chance I never got
We used to be so even, now we're not

[Chorus: Khalid]
Oh, there I go again
So invested, I'm tied up to you, tied up to you
I only make a mess of my head
Especially when I'm tied up to you, tied up to you

[Post-Chorus: Lauv]
To you, to you (Oh, I'm tied up, oh, I'm tied up)
To you, to you (Oh, I'm tied up, oh, I'm tied up)

[Bridge: Lauv]
I put my best shirt on for you
But it doesn't even matter
Am I enough for you, my dear?
As I fall into your pattern

[Chorus: Khalid]
Oh, there I go again
So invested, I'm tied up to you, tied up to you
I only make a mess of my head
Especially when I'm tied up to you, tied up to you

To you, to you (Oh, I'm tied up, oh, I'm tied up)
To you, to you (Oh, I'm tied up, oh, I'm tied up)

 Fade
From all that was before
We shut another door
But not a last goodbye

Fate
Has taken once again
A fight we'll never win
And time again we try
Left alone, I can't wait too long
Fade

Love
We loved so many times
And in so many lives
Sometimes we got it right

Pain
It found its way back in
Until we meet again
Into that good night

None too far as we chase through the stars beyond forever
I'll follow you

Dancing in the wind as roses born again
There you'll find me
Before the dawn of man, in castles made of sand
There you'll find me
Writing in the caves as fire lights the way
There you'll find me
Mask of royal glow don in pharaoh's clothes
There you'll find me

Let it go
Yeah
Rings of dust and ice weightless in the night
There you'll find me
Let it go

Dancing in the wind as roses born again
There you'll find me
Before the dawn of man in castles made of sand
There you'll find me
Writing in the caves as fire lights the way
There you'll find me
Mask of royal glow don in pharaoh's clothes
There you'll find me

From all that was before
We shut another door
But not a last goodbye
Taken once again
A fight we'll never win
And time again we try
I'm gone
We loved so many times
And in so many lives
I'm gone
Sometimes we got it right
I'm gone
It found it's way back in
Until we meet again
I'm gone
Into that good

Fuel - Shimmer

 Fuel - Shimmer

She calls me from the cold
Just when I was low, feeling short of stable
And all that she intends
And all she keeps inside, isn't on the label
She says she's ashamed
And can she take me for awhile
And can I be a friend, we'll forget the past
But maybe I'm not able
And I break at the bend

We're here and now, but will we ever be again
'cause I have found
All that shimmers in this world is sure to fade
Away again

She dreams a champagne dream
Strawberry surprise, pink linen and white paper
Lavender and cream
Fields of butterflies, reality escapes her
She says that love is for fools who fall behind
And I'm somewhere in between
I never really know
A killer from a savior
'til i break at the bend

It's too far away for me to hold
It's too far away...

Guess I'll let it go

Jesse Welles - Masks Off

Jesse Welles - Masks Off 

 i can't tell you what's worse
the message was terse
outright white supremacists 
or america first
i think they both sell merch
the whole place seems a little bit cursed
it's like somebody might have been
living here first

incels in cellars from a long line of failures
underneath rumble umbrellas daily wire'ing with the fellas
chromag maga hate cave dwellers
the tale is older than the tellers
the tail is older than old yeller

the internet is incarnate
manifested, given birth
there's some spillage in a village
near where i'm living here on earth
it's a disgrace to the natural state
there ain't much that ain't
hey bill
hey billy
hey Sarah
hey tom
hey mike

everything is constantly unlike anything you've ever seen before
everything is greater than it's ever been before
pardon the progress
hate is part of the process
catastrophic nostalgia
and delusions of freedom
i think we ate the last apple
in the garden eden

all the masks are off and they don't even try
they know that you know that they know
and they don't even mind it
all the masks are off
and they're getting lazy
they think yer so damn stupid
they think yer so damn crazy

killing people from a distance in an instant
at the insistence of a president
with a black mail gun to his head for the fun that he had in the dark ages
pages and pages and pages and pages
they thought they'd get away with it
the minimum wage is outraged with it
they're gonna burn somebody at the stake for it
fruit of the doom
oranges and grapists
hold on to yer vapes kids
icicles and alligators
and blood traitors
and purveyors of strange behaviors
and masqueraders and masked invaders
layers and layers and layers
be good to yer god
 and be good to yer bayer
take yer aspirin and yer roundup
and say all yer prayers

the loogie of factions that the nation has hacked
is boiling and festering and stabbing itself in the back
who here is surprised by that
who here is blown aghast
if you wanna know the future
simply look into the past

all the masks are off and they don't even try
they know that you know that they know
and they don't even mind it
all the masks are off
and they're getting lazy
they think yer so damn stupid
they think yer so damn crazy
