I'm spitting words but there's no meaning

Song: Villagers - That Day

Album: Becoming a Jackal (2010)

Label: Domino Records

Can you hear me now

Lying in this bed

Embedded in this written story

Can you hear me now

Calling from this bed

I'm spitting words but there's no meaning, no

(Now he's taking his time)

He's got nothing to lose

(But the first thing he sees)

Is the last thing he choose

(And when the moment arrived)

He just found he had nothing to say

That day

Can you hear me now

Sky is turning red

The streets are all gone

Am I dreaming, no

Can you hear me now

Falling from this bed

Nudist that bears gifts

But when will it show me

(Now she's taking her time)

She's got nothing to lose

(But the first thing she sees)

Is the last thing she choose

(And when the moment arrived)

She just found she had nothing to say

That day

He lies awake in his bed every night devising ways to conceal the strain

She never tells of her midnight fears or admits that she does the same

They never meet, never touch, never speak and for one tired old refrain

Can you hear me now

Lying in this bed

Embedded in this written story

Can you hear me now

Calling from this bed

I'm spitting words but there's no meaning

Enough! Enough!

Absynthe Minded - Envoi 

My verses stand gawping a bit

I never get used to this

They lived here long enough

Enough!

I send them out of the house

I don’t wanna wait

Until their toes are cold

Enough!

I wanna hear the humming of the sun

Or that of my heart,

Hardening

Enough!

They don’t screw classically

They babble commonly

And bluster nobly

Enough! Enough!

In winter their lips leap

In spring they lie flat at the first warmth

They ruin my summer

And in autumn it’s girls and a broken heart

For another twelve lines on this sheet

I’ll hold my hand over their head

And then I’ll kick them out

Enough!

Go and pester elsewhere, one-cent rhymes

Find somebody who cares

Enough!

Go now on your high feet

This is where the graves laugh

When they see their guests

Enough!

One corpse on top of the other

Go now and stagger to her

Whom I do not know

Enough! Enough!

In winter their lips leap

In spring they lie flat at the first warmth

They ruin my summer

And in autumn it’s girls and a broken heart

Save me from tomorrow now, save me from tomorrow now

The Libertines - What a Waster

What a waster, what a fucking waster

You pissed it all up the wall

Round the corner where they chased her

There's tears coming out from everywhere

The city's hard, the city's fair

Get back inside you've got nothing on

No you mind yer bleedin own you two bob cunt

When she wakes up in the morning

She writes down all her dreams

Reads like the book of revelations

Or the Beano or the unabridged Ulysses

Oh I really wanna know

So tell me, where does all the money go

where does all the money go

Straight, straight up her nose

And I never really liked it any way

So much preferred it the other way yeah

What a divvy what a fucking div

Talking like a moron, walking like a spiv

I was laying in bed paying my rent

Knocking on the door for something

That she lent her brother

Meanwhile from under the covers she says

Save me from tomorrow now, save me from tomorrow now,

Oh no, Oh no not me

And I never really liked it any way

So much preferred it the other way yeah

Never really liked it any way

So much preferred it the other way yeah

What a waster, what a fucking waster

You pissed it all up the wall

Round the corner where they chased her

There's tears coming out from everywhere

The citys hard the citys fair

Get back inside you've got nothing on

No you mind yer bleedin own you two bob cunt

What a waster, what a fucking waster

You pissed it all up the wall

Round the corner where they chased her

There's tears coming out from everywhere

The citys hard the citys fair

Get back inside you've got nothing on

No you mind yer bleedin own you two bob cunt

What a waster, what a fucking waster

You pissed it all up the wall

Round the corner where they chased her

There's tears coming out from everywhere

The citys hard the citys fair

Get back inside you've got nothing on

No you mind yer bleedin own you two bob cunt

I saw all knowledge destroyed

Joy Division - Wilderness

I travelled far and wide throguh many different times,

What did you see there?

I saw the saints with their toys,

What did you see there?

I saw all knowledge destroyed.

I travelled far and wide through many different times.

I travelled far and wide through prisons of the cross,

What did you see there?

The power and glory of sin,

What did you see there?

The blood of Christ on their skins,

I travelled far and wide through many different times.

I travelled far and wide and unknown martyrs died,

What did you see there?

I saw the one sided trials,

What did you see there?

I saw the tears as they cried,

They had tears in their eyes,

Tears in their eyes,

Tears in their eyes,

Tears in their eyes.

Can you fall asleep with a panic switch?

Silversun Pickups - Panic Switch

time is never worth my time

blue shine bleeds into my eyes

i still sleep on the right side

but white noise can't leave the scene behind

could i be anything you want me to be

if so is it meant to be seen

when you see yourself in a crowded room

do your fingers itch are you pistol whipped

will you step in line or release the glitch

can you fall asleep with a panic switch

when you see yourself in a crowded room

do your fingers itch are you pistol whipped

will you step in line or release the glitch

do you think she'll sleep with a panic...

i'll try to hold on tight tonight

pink slip inviting me inside

want to burn skin and brand what once was mine

but the red views keep ripping the divide

if i go everywhere you want me to go

how will i know you'll still follow

when you see yourself in a crowded room

do your fingers itch are you pistol whipped

will you step in line or release the glitch

can you fall asleep with a panic switch

when you see yourself in a crowded room

do your fingers itch are you pistol whipped

will you step in line or release the glitch

do you think she'll sleep with a panic...

movements are made slow motion in frame

i'm waiting and fading and floating away

the curtains are torn and the setting decayed

i'm waiting and fading and floating...

i'm waiting and fading and floating away

i'm waiting and fading and floating away

i'm waiting and fading and floating away

waiting and fading

waiting and fading

when you see yourself in a crowded room

do your fingers itch are you pistol whipped

will you step in line or release the glitch

can you fall asleep with a panic switch

when you see yourself in a crowded room

do your fingers itch are you pistol whipped

will you step in line or release the glitch

do you think she'll sleep with a panic...

Will your dreams stay rooted in the shallows?

The Horrors - Sea Within A Sea

Sea Within a Sea

Some say we walk alone

Barefoot on wicked stone no light

and sanctuary found never waits around awhile

Marching to the sea

their dreams stay in the shadows

their dreams stay firmly rooted in the shallows

See the scraping sky

See my destination there tonight

So say I walk alone barefoot

on wicked stone tonight

Will you leap to follow

Will you turn and go

Will your dreams stay rooted in the shallows

See the scraping sky

Far beyond the shallows

Far beyond the reaches of the shadows

Though youth may fade with boyhood´s cares

New fear will catch us unawares

I know it will

So you might say

the path we share is one of danger

and of fear

until the end

And are you cool? Symmetrical, analytical, hypocritical, so critical

The Maccabees - First Love

First love, Last love

Only love, it's only love

First love, Last love

Only love, it's only love

Do you miss home?

Do you miss home?

And are you cool?

Symmetrical?

Oh Oh Oh

Let's get married

And tick the boxes

Oh lets get married

And tick the boxes

Do you wanna be alone?

Do you wanna be alone?

And are you cool?

Symmetrical,

Analytical

Hypocritical

So critical

Nothing's perfect; I'm hoping I'll do

Oh nothing's perfect; I'm hoping I'll do

My mistake

And no mistake

And I would take it back if I could

So stay with me tonight

I'll make my bed, I'll lie in it

Enticing with its leopard print

I'll make my bed, I'll lie in it

Enticing with its leopard print

And matching velvet duvet

First love, Last love

Only love, it's only love

First love, Last love

Only love, it's only love

It's only love (x3)

No, I never wanted to change the world, but I'm looking for a new New Jersey

Titus Andronicus - A More Perfect Union

There'll be no more counting the cars on the garden state parkway

Nor waiting for the Fung Wah bus to carry me to who-knows-where

And when I stand tonight, 'neath the lights of the Fenway

Will I not yell like hell for the glory of the Newark Bears?

'Cause where I'm going to now, no one can ever hurt me

Where the well of human hatred is shallow and dry

No, I never wanted to change the world, but I'm looking for a new New Jersey

'Cause tramps like us, baby, we were born to die

I'm doing 70 on 17, I'm doing 80 over 84

And I never let the Meritt Parkway magnetize me no more

Give me a brutal Somerville summer, give me a cruel New England winter

Give me the great Pine Barrens so I can see them turned into splinters

'Cause if I come in on a donkey

Let me go out on a gurney

I want to realize too late I never should have left New Jersey

I sense the enemy

They're rustling around in the trees

Oh, I thought I had gotten away

But they followed me to 02143

Woe, oh woe is me

No one knows the trouble I see

When they hang Jeff Davis from a sour apple tree

I'll sit beneath the leaves and weep

None of us shall be saved

Every man will be a slave

For John Brown's body lies a'mouldring in the grave

And there's rumblings down in the cave

So if it's time for choosing sides

And to show this dirty city how we do the Jersey Slide

And if it deserves a better class of criminal

Then I'm'a give it to them tonight

So we'll rally around the flag, rally around the flag

Rally around the flag, boys, rally once again, shouting the Battle Cry of Freedom

Rally around the flag, rally around the flag

Glory, glory, hallelujah, His truth is marching on

"I will be as harsh as truth and as uncompromising as justice. On this subject, I do not wish to think, or speak, or write with moderation. I am in earnest. I will not equivocate, I will not excuse, I will not retreat a single inch, and I will be heard."

Anything to make you smile

Band Of Horses - No One's Gonna Love You

It's looking like a limb torn off

Or altogether just taken apart

We're reeling through an endless fall

We are the ever-living ghost of what once was

But no one is ever gonna love you more than I do

No one's gonna love you more than I do

And anything to make you smile

It is my better side of you to admire

But they should never take so long

Just to be over then back to another one

But no one is ever gonna love you more than I do

No one's gonna love you more than I do

But someone,

They could have warned you

When things start splitting at the seams and now

The whole thing's tumbling down

Things start splitting at the seams and now

If things start splitting at the seams and now,

It's tumbling down

Hard.

Anything to make you smile

You are the ever-living ghost of what once was

I never want to hear you say

That you'd be better off

Or you liked it that way

But no one is ever gonna love you more than I do

No one's gonna love you more than I do

But someone

They should have warned you

When things start splitting at the seams and now

The whole thing's tumbling down

Things start splitting at the seams and now

If things start splitting at the seams and now,

It's tumbling down

Hard

Can I fall awake now?

The Raveonettes - Forget That You're Young

And I see you...

And I know that you're so young.

And I choose you...

And I know that you're so young.

And I forget that you're young.

And I scare you...

And I forget that you're young.

And I leave you...

And I know that you're so young.

And I miss you...

And I know that you're so young.

Can I fall awake now?

Can I fall awake now?

Can I fall awake now?

Can I fall awake now?

(And I forget that you're young)

And I forget that you're young...
