But I no longer hear the music

Song: The Libertines- Music When the Lights Go Out
Album: The Libertines (2004)
Label: Rough Trade Records

is it cruel to be kind not to speak my mind and to lie to you rather than hurt you
well ill confess all of my sins after several large gins but still ill hide from you, hide whats
inside from you
and alarm bells ring.when you say your heart still sings.when your with me, oh darling please
forgive me
but i no longer hear the music oh no no no no
and all the memories of the pubs and the clubs, and the drugs and the tubs we shared together
will stay with me forever..
but all the highs and the lows and the to's and the fro's they left me dizzy oh wont you please
forgive me

but i no longer hear the music oh no no no no

well i no longer hear the music when the lights go out love goes cold in the shades of doubt the
strange fate in my mind its all too clear, music when the lights come on the girl i thought i
knew has gone, and with her my heart it dissapeard

well i no longer hear the music oh no no no no and all the memories of the fights and the nights
and the blue lights and the kites we flew together i thought theyd fly forever

but all the highs and the lows and the to's and the fro's they left me dizzy oh wont you please
forgive me

but i no longer hear the music oh no no no no

well i no longer hear the music when the lights go out love goes cold in the shades of doubt the
strange fate in my mind its all too clear

i no longer hear the music when the lights go out the girl i thought i knew has gone and with
her my heart has disapeard
but i no longer hear the music oh no no no no and i no longer hear the music

Now I can talk, no one gets off

Song: Two Door Cinema Club - I Can Talk
Album: Tourist History (2010)
Label: Kitsuné Music

You won't believe what I tell you,
White coats and clever minds will choose
You get a lot from this
Loose tongue and arrogance
It's not appropriate
Don't think that this is it

Now I can talk, no one gets off
(I know how you like to)
Now I can talk, no one gets off
(repeat)

A longer sentence brings no more
Than one that I had said before
It's hard to compromise
When I see through your eyes
It's just a common view
I guess it's lost on you

Now I can talk, no one gets off
(I know how you like to)
Now I can talk, no one gets off
(repeat)

Now I can talk, no one gets off
(I know how you like to)
Now I can talk, no one gets off
(repeat)

Stop smoking that

Song: Babyshambles - Lost Art Of Murder
Album: Shotter's Nation (2007)
Label: Parlophone

Roll a four
Roll a nine
Find yourself washed up in paradise

But like before
You didn't mind
Someone else washed up in paradise

If i really did

What a nice day for a murder
You call yourself a killer but the only thing your killing is your time
There's nothing absurder
A bird is just a burden
To your heart your soul your body, spirit and mind

Don't look at me like that
She won't take you back
You said to much
You been to unkind
Get up off your back
Stop smoking that
You could change your life
You just might change your mind

Could roll a four
Could roll a nine
Find yourself washed up in paradise

All the fours
And all the nines
I lost my phone in paradise

It's big as you go

What a nice day for a murder
Say you're a killer, the only thing your killing is time
It's nothing absurder
A bird is a burden
To your heart your soul your body, spirit and mind

Don't look at me like that
She won't take you back
You done to much
You been to unkind
Get up off your back
Stop smoking that
You could change your life
Do you think they'll change their minds

Let’s grow old together and die at the same time

Song: White Lies - To Lose My Life
Album: To Lose My Life... (2009)
Label: Fiction Records


He said to lose my life or lose my love,
That’s the nightmare I’ve been running from.
So let me hold you in my arms a while,
I was always careless as a child.
And there’s a part of me that still believes,
My soul will soar above the trees.
But a desperate fear flows through my blood,
That our dead loves buried beneath the mud.

Let’s grow old together,
And die at the same time.
Let’s grow old together,
And die at the same time.

I said I’ve got no time I have to go,
And I was more right then now I’ll ever know.
He said my heart is faint, will minds regret,
And left him crying next to the chapels steps.

Let’s grow old together,
And die at the same time.

Let’s grow old together,
And die at the same time.

He said?

Let’s grow old together,
And die at the same time.
Let’s grow old together,
And die at the same time.

He said?

He said to lose my life or lose my love,
That’s the nightmare I’ve been running from.
So let me hold you in my arms a while,
I was careless as a child.
There’s a part of me that still believes,
My soul will soar above the trees.
A desperate fear flows through my blood,
Our dead loves buried beneath the mud.
A desperate fear flows through my blood,
Our dead loves buried beneath the mud

Don't look at me that way...it was an honest mistake

Maine plec la Peninsula, dar melodiile o sa apara in continuare pe blog :) Abia astept concertul Kasabian!

Song: The Bravery - An Honest Mistake
Album: The Bravery (2005)
Label: Island Records

People
They don't mean a thing to you
They move right through you
Just like your breath
But sometimes
I still think of you
And I just wanted to
Just wanted you to know
My old friend...
I swear I never meant for this
I never meant...

Don't look at me that way
It was an honest mistake
Don't look at me that way
It was an honest mistake
An honest mistake

Sometimes
I forget I'm still awake
I fuck up and say these things out loud

My old friend...
I swear I never meant for this
I never meant...

Don't look at me that way
It was an honest mistake
Don't look at me that way
It was an honest mistake
An honest mistake

Don't look at me that way
It was an honest mistake
Don't look at me that way
It was an honest mistake
An honest mistake

I would lie anywhere with you...

Song: Wild Beasts - Bed Of Nails
Album: Smother (2011)
Label: Domino Records


I would lie anywhere with you,
Any old bed of nails would do,
Ink up the wound for a crude tattoo,
A big old red heart with an anchor stuck through

Like a sister Ophelia,
Tell me you're there!
Like a lifeline Ophelia,
Tell me you're there!

O Ophelia I feel your fall...
O Ophelia I feel your fall...

Ah, any old bed of nails for me,
Just so you're there when I fall asleep,
I'd lay all night in a lanky limbed heap

Surround me like a warm bath,
Sum me up like an epitaph,
Be blatant as a bailiff,
I want my lips to blister when we kiss

O Ophelia I feel your fall...
O Ophelia I feel your fall...

Our love, Frankenstein in nature and design,
Like the Shelleys on their very first time,
When our bodies become electrified,
Together we bring this creature alive

It's alive... it's alive... it's alive!

I would lie anywhere with you,
Any old bed of nails would do,
Ink up the wound for a crude tattoo,
A big old red heart with an anchor stuck through

I would lie anywhere with you,
Any old bed of nails for me,
Just so you're there when I fall asleep,
I'd lay all night in a lanky limbed heap

We're singing out of tune, but I still want to sing with you

Song: The Futureheads - Heartbeat Song
Album: The Chaos (2010)
Label: Nul Records

When we meet I listen to your heartbeat
I can hear the rhythm and the tone
Every time I listen to me heart
It's like a cartwheel in my head but my legs are made of lead

Your heartbeat song, it's good but it's not the one
We're singing out of tune, but I still want to sing with you

When we speak I find it hard to think straight
Especially when there's no one else around
When we touch it's impossible to concentrate
Bright lights everywhere, like I'm floating in the air

Your heartbeat song, it's good but it's not the one
We're singing out of tune, but I still want to sing with you

Your heartbeat song, it's good but it's not the one
We're singing out of tune, but I still want to sing with you
But I still want to sing with you

If you care, we can share sometime
If we spare ourselves, tonight

When we meet I listen to your heartbeat
I can hear the rhythm and the tone
Every time I listen to me heart
It's like a cartwheel in my head but my legs are made of lead

When we speak I find it hard to think straight
Especially when there's no one else around
When we touch its impossible to concentrate
Bright lights everywhere, like I'm floating in the air

Your heartbeat song, it's good but it's not the one
we're singing out of tune, but I still want to sing with you

Your heartbeat song, it's good but it's not the one
we're singing out of tune, but I still want to sing with you
Still want to sing with you
Still want to sing with you
I still want to sing with you

What happens when you lose everything? You just start again. You start all over again

Song: Maximo Park - Apply Some Pressure
Album: A Certain Trigger (2005)
Label: Warp Records

You know that I would love to see you next year
I hope that I am still alive next year
You magnify the way I think about myself
before you came I rarely thought about myself

Behind your veil I found a body underneath
inside your head were things I never thought about
you know that I would love to see you next year
I hope that I am still alive next year

What's my view?
well how am I supposed to know
write a review
well how objective can I be
X2

You know that I would love to see you in that dress
I hope that I will live to see you undress
The every day is part of what consumes me
The hate I feel is part of what fuels me

I testify to having guilty feelings
I must confess, I'd like to be caught stealing
You know that I would love to see you in that dress*
I hope that I will live to see you undress**

What's my view?
well how am I supposed to know
write a review
well how objective can I be
X2

I like to wait to see how things turn out
If you apply some pressure
X2


What happens when you lose everything
you just start again
you start all over again
X2

I like to wait to see how things turn out
If you apply some pressure
X2

What happens when you lose everything
you just start again
you start all over again
X3

What happens when you lose some pressure
apply some pressure you lose some pressure
apply some pressure you lose some pressure
apply some pressure you lose some pressure
X2

You know that I would love to see you next year
I hope that I am still alive next year
You know that I would love to see you in that dress
i hope that i will live to see you undressed

Run, run, run away

Song: Yeah Yeah Yeahs - Runaway
Album: It's Blitz! (2009)
Label: Interscope

I was feeling sad
Can't help looking back
Highways flew by
Run, run, run away
No sense of time
Want you to stay
Want keep you inside

Run, run, run away
Lost, lost, lost my mind
Want you to stay
Want you to be my prize

Run, run, run away
Lost, lost, lost my mind
Want you to stay
Want you to be my prize

I was feeling sad
Can't help looking back
Highways flew by
Run, run, run away
No sense of time
Want you to stay
Want keep you inside

All along, not so strong without these open arms.
Hold on tight.
All along, not that strong without these open arms.
Lie beside.
All along, not so strong without these open arms.
Ride beside.

Run, run, run away
Lost, lost, lost my mind
Want you to stay
Want you to be my prize

Run, run, run away
Lost, lost, lost my mind
Want you to stay
Want you to be my prize

Everyone is king when there’s no one left to pawn

Song: Black Rebel Motorcycle Club - Beat the Devil's Tattoo
Album: Beat the Devil's Tattoo (2010)
Label: Abstract Dragon


You have forsaken all the love you’ve taken
Sleeping on a razor, there’s nowhere left to fall
Your body’s aching, every bone is breaking
Nothing seems to shake it, it just keeps holding on
Ah ah ah ah...

Your soul is able, death is all you cradle
Sleeping on the nails, there’s nowhere left to fall
You have admired, every man desires
Everyone is king when there’s no one left to pawn
Ah ah ah ah...

There is no peace here, war is never cheap here
Love will never need it, it just gets sold for parts
You cannot fight it, all the world denies it
Open up your eyelids and let your demons run
Ah ah ah...

I thread the needle through, you beat the devil’s tattoo
I thread the needle through, you beat the devil’s tattoo

Dream a little dream of me

Song: Chapel Club - Surfacing
Album: Palace (2011)
Label: Loog Records
More info:
Albumul lor de debut a fost lansat in 31 ianuarie 2011 si mi se pare una din cele mai promitatoare formatii noi de indie. Abia astept sa ii ascult live la Summer Well in august. Ascultati si All the Eastern Girls, O Maybe I, Five Trees, Paper Thin.

Strange the god of your name is Piscean too
Shells and silvery scales and torrents of blue
one more pilot fish come to swim with the shark
dreams of bloodiest extremes picks me from their mouth

Chorus
stars shining bright above you
night breezes seem to whisper "I love you"
bodies swinging in the sycamore tree
dream a little dream of me

cold your blood is your soul but blood is the lie
sold the hand that you hold before you arrive
you're perfect, you're worth it your friends said
I guess that it's true
you mean it
I've seen it
the poets got nothing on you

Chorus X 2

dream a little dream
dream a little dream
dream a little dream of me
dream a little dream
dream a little dream
dream a little dream of me

You can blow what's left of my right mind

Song: The Kills - Future Starts Slow
Album: Blood Pressures (2011)
Label: Domino Records

Ma obsedeaza melodia asta de cateva zile...

You can holler, you can wail
You can swing, you can flail
You can fuck like a broken sail
But I'll never give you up
If I ever give you up my heart will surely fail

And after all God can keep my soul
England have my bones
But don't ever give me up
I could never get back up when the future starts so slow

No longing for the moonlight
No longing for the sun
No longer will I curse the bad I've done
If there's a time when your feelings gone, I wanna feel it

You can holler, you can wail
You can blow what's left of my right mind
You can swing, you can flail
You can blow what's left of my right mind
(I don't mind)

There's a time for the second best
And there's a time when the feeling's gone
But it's hard to be hard I guess
When you're shaking like a dog

You can holler, you can wail
You can blow what's left of my right mind
You can swing, you can flail
You can blow what's left of my right mind

You can holler, you can wail
You can blow what's left of my right mind
You can swing, you can flail
You can blow what's left of my right mind
(I don't mind)

You can blow what's left of my right mind
You can blow what's left of my right mind
You can holler, you can wail
You can blow what's left of my right mind

I like my loneliness and the thoughts it brings

Song: The Cinematics - Break
Album: A Strange Education (2007)
Label: TVT Records
More info:  
The Cinematics sunt o trupa de Indie/Alternative din Scotia, iar "A Strange Education" este primul lor album. Au mai scos un album in 2009 intitulat "Love and Terror" si au inceput in 2010 sa lucreze la al treilea album. Producatorii albumului "A Strange Education" au lucrat si cu Arctic Monkeys, Kasabian, Editors, Kasier Chiefs, Blur, New Order. 
 

I like my loneliness and the thoughts it brings
The darkness can sometimes be a pleasure to me
I stand around on the outside of it peering from the edge
Looking for the answers to the questions I'll never ask
It's from this place we'll find our peace
And reconcile our bitterness
We have to
We have to
Break, break, break, break
Washed away
Washed away
It's from this loneliness and the fear it brings
That new doors can open up and be a saviour to me
So i'll open my mind, open my heart
It's the only way to breathe
It's the static of the lights, she said
So don't panic
No, don't panic
It's from this place we'll find our peace
And reconcile our emptiness
We have to
We have to
Break, break, break, break
Washed away
Washed away
(It's just a trick of the light, she says)
Washed away
(Don't panic, don't panic)
