1158. Broken box - Queens of the Stone Age





I've got wine & so do you
Mine came with a cork
I wish yours did too

Everyone just loves you so
Well hurray!
Now you know where to go

In my head you're all brand new
I guess you're really all the same
In my head you're all brand new
Tell your new boy where i came
In my head you're all brand new
I just didn't want what you gave
In my head you're all brand new
Go & find yourself another slave

There you are

Ooohh you're so in love, just like Juliet
Well guess what?
That's one thing that you can for-fucking-get

Tears from the sky
In pools of pain
Well baby tonite, i'm gonna go & dance in the rain

In my head you're all brand new
I guess you're really all the same
In my head you're all brand new
Tell your new boy where i came
In my head you're all brand new
Take that broken pussy elsewhere
In my head you're all brand new
Save it baby, i don't care

1157. Villains of circumstance - Queens of the Stone Age





I miss you now, what's come over me?
We're hostages of geography
The wait is long, and heavy too
Despite what you're accustomed to

I know that life moves on, that's what scares me so
Have no intentions of letting go
Only us, no one in the world
Only us, no one in the world

I better do something, move earth and sky
And patiently, sweetly, with all of my mind
I sing only for you
To the beat of my footsteps in the night

Close your eyes and dream me home
Forever mine, I'll be forever yours
Always, evermore, and on and on
Always, evermore, and on and on
Always, evermore, and on and on
Always, evermore

There's no magic bullet, no cure for pain
What's done is done, 'til you do it again
Life in pursuit of a nameless prey
I've been so close, I'm so far away

It's so hard to explain, so easy to feel
I need you now, nothing is real
Save me from the villains of circumstance
Before I lose my place

Close your eyes and dream me home
Forever mine, I'll be forever yours
I'll be forever yours
I'll be forever yours
Always, evermore, and on and on
Always, evermore, and on and on
Always, evermore, and on and on
Always, evermore

1155. Cubism - Local Natives



She flew across the sea
We talked on a small screen
A cubism dream
The most beautiful squares I'd ever seen
The canvas was free
A gift good mother gave to me
We joked at how they talked so differently

I will never know what had rot my heart
It just came and went in the dark
I had changed into the certain kind of man
That could break your heart with his own hands

We were to scan our own towns
And make good on what we found
Oh, what a fool I was to think
That I could get by on a smile and a wink
I make a friend, I make you sick
Could you even imagine a kiss?
We spoke of how we talked so differently
I spoke of how I felt so differently

I will never know what had rot my heart
It just came and went in the dark
I had changed into the certain kind of man
That could break your heart with his own hands

So in australia, on halloween
I proved what our love meant to me
The suffering, the struggling
I did it for you
I did it for me

1154. Domesticated animals - Queens of the Stone Age





Today is the day, bewilderness
Comes to reclaim everything
Burning bridge lights up the sky
Zip your lip until you've picked a side

You get right up then sit back down
The revolution is one spin 'round
You get back up then sit right down
A revolution is one spin 'round

All for one, all for naught
Perish, baby, perish the thought
Beat the kids to the punch
You've got heart, I'll have it for lunch

You get right up then sit back down
The revolution is one spin 'round
You get back up then sit right down
Dizzy, dizzy, dizzy, we all fall down

Tell me, where's the goddamn gold?
Gold

Pretty pets, once were wild
Domesticated love slave, give us a smile
You got a number, is it the same?
Who you belong to?
You feral or tame? (Probably tame)

Tell us where you keep the gold (For what?)
We wanna help you rule the world (I think not)
We won't tell a single soul (So they all say)
So tell us, where's the goddamn gold?

I'll tell you where the gold is
It's in the ground
You wonder where's the reason?
It's in the lost and found

I'll tell you where the gold is
It's in the ground
You wonder where's the freedom?
In the lost and found
Still not found

I'll tell you where the gold is
It's all mine
Mine
Get right up, kneel and bow
Where's your revolution now?

Get back up, sit right down
Tears of gold, drink them down
Get right up, kneel and bow
Shrunken heads parade through town
Tears of gold, drink them down
Dizzy, dizzy, dizzy, we all fall down

1153. You could be happy - Snow Patrol



You could be happy and I won't know
But you weren't happy the day I watched you go

And all the things that I wished I had not said
Are played in loops till it's madness in my head

Is it too late to remind you how we were?
But not our last days of silence, screaming, blur

Most of what I remember makes me sure
I should have stopped you from walking out the door

You could be happy, I hope you are
You made me happier than I'd been by far

Somehow everything I own smells of you
And for the tiniest moment it's all not true

Do the things that you always wanted to
Without me there to hold you back; don't think, just do

More than anything I want to see you, girl
Take a glorious bite out of the whole world

1152. Peaceful morning - Hamilton Leithauser



I thought I heard the angels, Lord
When I was on the chapel floor
But I'll never be sure

Those old familiar harmonies
They carried us through New Orleans
In ice water smacking kisses
Sour lemon mouthfuls
Of black hours, seersucker
Powdered sugar moon glow

I know when you're with me
That your spirit's gonna lift me
So I never change directions
And I never ask no questions

Oh, I wish I could hear it
'Cause I still feel the spirit
From the rafters to the ceiling
I'm waiting on that feeling
Oh I know

I know that you're coming
Are you walking or are you running?
And I know when you're with me
That your spirit's gonna lift me

Oh, I know that you're coming
Are you walking or are you running?
And I know when you're with me
That your spirit's gonna lift me

Oh, I know that you're coming
Are you walking or are you running?
But I know you'll be leaving
Yeah, you'll always find a reason

Hey, I know that you're coming
Are you walking or are you running?
I know that you're coming
Are you walking or are you running?
