get miles - gomez
i love this island but this island's killing me
sitting here in silence man i don't get no peace
the waves upon my shore take me away piece by piece
gonna leave everything i know
gonna head out towards the sea
jump off the silence
gonna head out towards the sea
i love this city man but this city's killing me
sitting here in all this noise man i don't get no peace
the cars below my street take me away piece by piece
gonna leave everything i know
gonna head out towards the sea
gonna leave this city man
gonna head out towards the sea
get miles away
get miles away
get miles away
get miles
i love this planet but this planet's killing me
sitting here in all this grass man i don't get no peace
the sweat coming from my palms takes me away piece by piece
gonna leave everything i know
gonna head to the galaxy
gonna leave this planet man
gonna head to the galaxy
get miles away
get miles away
get miles away
get miles away
get miles away
get miles away
get miles away
get miles |

tranquilise - the killers feat. lou reed
time it tells living in my home town wedding bells they begin easy live it down baby don't talk that much baby knows but baby don't tease me in the park we could go walking drown in the dark or we could go sailing on the sea
always here always on time close call was it love or was it just easy money talks when people need shoes and socks steady boys i'm thinking she needs me i was just sipping on something sweet i don't need political process
i got this feeling that they're gonna break down the door i got this feeling they they're gonna come back for more see i was thinking that i lost my mind but it's been getting to me all this time and it don't stop dragging me down
silently reflection turns my world to stone patiently correction leaves us all alone and sometimes i'm a travel man but tonight this engine's failing
i still hear the children playing kick the can, kick the can skip and blackjack steal a car and ring around rosey rock and roll candyland boogeyman run away and give me your sneakers
acid rain when abel looked up at cain we began the weeping and wailing a hurried high from pestilence pills and pride it's a shame we could have gone sailing but heaven knows heaven knows everything tranquilize
i got this feeling that they're gonna break down the door i got this feeling they they're gonna come back for more see i was thinking that i lost my mind but it's been getting to me all this time and it don't stop dragging me down
silently reflection turns my world to stone patiently correction leaves us all alone and sometimes i'm a travel man but tonight this engine's failing
i still hear the children playing dead beat dancers come to us and stay
cause i don't care where you've been and i don't care what you've seen we're the ones who still believe and we're looking for a page in that lifeless book of hope where a dream might help you cope with the bushes and the bombs tranquilized |

non-objective portrait of karma - circle takes the square
ignorance is bliss no wise woman's failed to mention and surely some koan suggests 'neglect leads to perfection' but the more i turn my face from the crowd the more i feel my back's increasingly compelled for the sake of escape to turn a knife on itself a knife of relief from all the petty insight and finally i'll sleep i'll sleep through the night
bored as fuck with this street corner-cover study of a face in a figure surveying this language as a game surveillance of this language as the plague the dimension of persistence condemns this portrait of karma, crafted in accident
text book seduction, minus the text in the language of ghosts and so we ran, like the wolves were biting the inhibitions of their prey kept them from screaming "scratch my back and i will stab you in yours" so i chose to live this life alone without the teeth marks but i predict i'll have to sink my fangs in someone else's heart to heal my own
just a victim's split one part for the wolves one part for you but i'll grow weary soon weary of this fractal code weary of this hallway lined with ghosts just a scratch upon the skin a drop of blood to let them in their words will cause the sweetest fracture from a stone's throw
just a scratch upon the skin a drop of blood to welcome them parasitic viral critics or lovers like spirits mingling in the mist that we crafted a starving jury let them eat shit from our trembling hands the heat for heats sake on this barnard block of congress deductively speaking the polar of progress well maybe i put too much faith in the accident
entranced we danced toward the ripest display of escape let the starving ghosts feats from this flesh from these bones let them all feast in this chess game of language forced to sit so i play all alone watch the bathos drift forth like the petals from a wild crafted rose |

moving on - kimya dawson
she was reunited with the father of her kids he said "it wasn't me it was the booze; i know not what i did" she said "you filled the bathtub with my blood when you bashed in my head you can go to hell i'm moving on you can go to hell i'm moving on"
then she saw her mom who said "i love you sweet baby" she said "then why'd you beat me until i started to bleed? you starved me too i had to dance for money in the street you can go to hell i'm moving on you can go to hell i'm moving on"
running from the one who gave her life running from the man who called her wife she will find a way out i am sure then no one can hurt her anymore
when she got there the old man was holding a tutu and a pair of brand new pink capezio toe shoes she laughed and said "excuse me sir do those belong to you?" he said "no they're yours, go put them on" he said "no they're yours, go put them on"
the stage was big as every place she'd ever lived combined and there were wooden soldiers there that were three times her size with a plie and a releve her dreams were realized she said "but i thought clara was a blonde" she said "but i thought clara was a blonde"
the old man said "now princess, yes your hair's as black as night but prima ballerinas now we know aren't always white a million people saying something's so don't make it right" she said "i've died and gone to heaven, i've died and gone to heaven,"
running from the one who gave her life running from the man who called her wife she will find a way out i am sure then no one can hurt her anymore |

green gloves - the national
falling out of touch with all my
friends are somewhere getting wasted
hope they're staying glued together
i have arms for them
take another sip of them
it floats around and takes me over
like a little drop of ink in a glass of water
get inside their clothes
with my green gloves
watch their videos in their chairs
get inside their beds
with my green gloves
get inside their heads love their loves
cinderella through the room
i glide and swan cause i'm the best slow dancer
in the universe
falling out of touch with all my
friends are somewhere getting wasted
hope they're staying glued together
i have arms for them
get inside their clothes
with my green gloves
watch their videos in their chairs
get inside their beds
with my green gloves
get inside their heads love their loves
now i hardly know them
and i'll take my time
i'll carry them over and i'll make them mine
get inside their clothes
with my green gloves
watch their videos in their chairs
get inside their beds
with my green gloves
get inside their heads love their loves |
