The Present - Lyrics - Bloc Party

Title: The Present
Artist: Bloc Party
Composer(s): Gordon Moakes, Matt Tong, Russell Lissack, Kele Okereke

Lyric:
If you're cold and you're alone
And you don't know where to go
You can call me anytime
Nothing's changed, I am still here

If you're running out of breath
And your building's burning down
You can jump, I will catch you
Nothing's changed, I am still here

With heavy hands and an absent mind
Did I blow your candle out?
With shortened words and a lack of time
Am I ever on your mind?

Was I cruel and never there?
Nothing to rely on
Was our romance a black hole?
You kept the better half than me

Well if you really wanted to know
Well no the earth's not moved for me since
I wish I could've given you lightness
The lightness that you deserve

And they say time is a healer
And time will look after you
I can't wait, I can't wait
I can't wait, I can't wait, come over

Come over, come over, come over
Why don't you come over?
Why don't you come over?
Why don't you come over?
Why don't you come over?

Well if you really wanted to know
Well no the earth's not moved for me since
I wish I could've given you lightness
The lightness that you deserve

And they say time is a healer
And time will look after you
Let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go
Come over

And I stole you that ring 'cause I wanted you to have it
And it wasn't about me, I just wanted you to have it
Your smile, baby your smile, baby I come alive

And I stole you that ring 'cause I wanted you to have it
And it wasn't about me, I just wanted you to have it
Your smile, baby your smile, baby I come alive

I feel so naked like before we met
Last night I was so close to just calling you up
They say it takes time to heal the wounds
I can't wait, I can't wait, come over

Take You There - Lyrics - Louise

Title: Take You There
Artist: Louise
Composer(s): Matthew Peter Elliss, Julie Morrison, Louise Nurding, Catherine Lydia Ogden

{AdsenseCode:2D080010-7055-443A-8D12-2B79DDC71256}

Lyric:
While the candle cries itself to sleep
Time hides behind the moon tonight
We speak of promises to keep
Uncovering the truth inside

You're my sweetness and lightness
I follow the brightness
That pushes all my fears aside

And baby, I'll take you there
If ever you may stop believing
I'll take you there
Never lose faith

Whatever your wish, I will grant it
You are the core, I'm the answer
You know I'll take you there, yeah

While Shakespeare wrote the book of love
I don't believe he ever felt like us
Our passions collide, no words can describe
The diamond shots of love in our eyes

And baby, I'll take you there
If ever you may stop believing
I'll take you there
Never lose faith

Whatever your wish, I will grant it
You are the core, I'm the answer
You know I'll take you there, oh yes, oh yeah
I'll take you there

Back to the place
That we first discovered our love
Our hearts and our mind
Will lead us back in time
Oh, I'll take you there

Oh, oh yeah, yeah
Oh yeah
You're my sweetness and lightness
I follow the brightness
That pushes all my fears aside

And baby, I'll take you there
If ever you may stop believing
I'll take you there
Never lose faith

Whatever your wish, I will grant it
You are the core, I'm the answer
I'll take you there, oh yes, oh yeah
I'll take you there
Take you there

While Shakespeare wrote the book of love
I don't believe he ever felt like us

Brightness Falls - Lyrics - David Sylvian

Title: Brightness Falls
Artist: David Sylvian
Composer(s): Robert Fripp, Trey Gunn, David Sylvian

Lyric:
Baby, baby, I hate to go
Don't leave me alone with this sorrow
The body's heavy, the getting's slow

Lost in moments, caught in moments
The night is starless and stands below
And I need you by my side

Baby, baby, I love you so
Don't leave me alone in this hollow
Brightness falls, who'll come running?
But brightness falls, who'll come running in?

Saved by silence, save by noise
Save by lightning, saved by joy
Building on emptiness and all you broken hearted people

Baby, baby, the hurt heals slow
Who can believe in tomorrow?
Brightness falls, who'll come running?
But brightness falls, who'll come running in?

The ticket's exploded, only one way out
Live in lightness, lost in lightness
There's nothing left to write about
And time's no longer the greatest injustice of all, yeah
On this new day

On this new day

Lightness - Lyrics - Transatlanticism - Death Cab For Cutie

Title: Lightness
Album: Transatlanticism
Artist: Death Cab For Cutie
Composer(s): Benjamin Gibbard

Lyric:
There's a tear in the fabric of your favorite dress
And I'm sneaking glances
Looking for the patterns in static
They start to make sense the longer I'm at it

Ivory lines lead

Your heart is a river
That flows from your chest through every organ
Your brain is the dam
And I am the fish who can't reach the cord

Ivory lines lead

Oh, instincts are misleading
You shouldn't think what you're feeling
They don't tell you what you know you should want

Ivory lines lead
Ivory lines lead

Oh, instincts are misleading
You shouldn't think what you're feeling
They don't tell you what you know you should want

Ivory lines lead

Hymn To Grace - Lyrics - Aztec Camera

Title: Hymn To Grace
Artist: Aztec Camera
Composer(s): Roddy Frame

Lyric:
Have you seen behind the screen
That severs life from art?
Or do you see the same as me
Completeness come apart?
And who am I to qualify
The contents of your heart?

It's a simple understanding
Of the way you hand it over
And hold on to it, too
With the lightness of a feather
It's the web that ties together
What is true

Make it happen
Make it happen
Create the night anew
It's a hymn to the grace
That's found a place in you

Could I look into a book
And find the answer there?
Or do the angels prearrange
An eye for what is rare?
And would the prize anaesthetise
The ache that makes me share?

It's a simple understanding
Of the way you hand it over
And hold on to it, too
With the lightness of a feather
It's the web that ties together
What is true

See the others flappin'
With their fingers snappin'
Tryin' to make it happen, too
It's a hymn to the grace
That's found a place in you

Who Is It - Lyrics - Bjork

Title: Who Is It
Artist: Bjork
Composer(s): Bjork Gudmundsdottir

Lyric:
His embrace a fortress
It fuels me and places
A skeleton of trust right beneath us
Bone by bone, stone by stone

If you ask yourself patiently
And carefully who is it?
Who is it?

Who is it, that never lets you down?
Who is it, that gave you back your crown?
And the ornaments are they're going around
Now they're handing it over, they're handing it over
Handing it over

Who is it, that never lets you down?
Who is it, that gave you back your crown?
And the ornaments are they're going around
Now they're handing it over, handing it over

Handing it over
Handing it over
Handing it over

He demands a closeness
We all have earned a lightness
Carry my joy on the left
Carry my pain on the right

If you ask yourself now patiently
And carefully who is it?

Who is it, that never lets you down?
Who is it, that gave you back your crown?
And the ornaments are they're going around
And I'm handing it over, handing it over
Handing

Who is it, that never lets you down?
Who is it, that gave you back your crown?
And the ornaments are they're going around
Now I'm handing it over, handing it over

Handing it over
Handing it over
Handing it over

Humanity - Lyrics - A Guy Called Gerald

Title: Humanity
Artist: A Guy Called Gerald
Composer(s): Gerald Simpson, Louise Ann Rhodes

Lyric:
These days I find I?m wasting my time
On all the little things that shouldn?t concern me
Weighing my heart with such confused emotion
Letting anxiousness in where peace should prevail

It?s just my humanity
Getting the better of me
It?s just my humanity
Getting the better, getting the better of me

I?ve been working on it, just trying and working on it
Knowing the soul to be lighter if I could just shed this weight
Or just carry this weight without objection
So weight become lightness, so light becomes weightless

Oh it?s just my humanity
Getting the better of me
It?s just my humanity
Getting the better, getting the better of me

I?m lifting the lid off eventually
Holding my head up and clarity
Where once there was proud
I know this place and smile inside

Oh it?s just my humanity
Getting the better of me
It?s just my humanity
Getting the better, getting the better of me

Yeah it?s just my humanity
Getting the better, getting the better of me
Getting the better, getting the better, getting the better of me

It?s just my humanity
Getting the better, getting the better of me

Another Year - Lyrics - Almost Happy - K'S Choice

Title: Another Year
Album: Almost Happy
Artist: K'S Choice
Composer(s): Gert Bettens, Sarah Bettens

{AdsenseCode:2D080010-7055-443A-8D12-2B79DDC71256}

Lyric:
I wish you could adore, the way you did before
Now you're living through another year
Oh, the light you were will soon become a blur
As you're living through another year

Oh, what a waste of time it is
To indulge inside of bliss
Getting ready for another year like this

Another year to lie
Another year goes by

You're not sick, so you can?t heal but I wonder do you feel
The need to cry, "I'm out of here"
Oh, your goal is safe but is it all you crave?
As you're living through another year

Oh, what a waste of time it is
To indulge inside of bliss
Getting ready for another year like this

Another year to lie
Another year goes by

Is it me or how I see the face of mediocrity?
I try to smile, you see, your lightness darkens me
Filter all of your emotions, fake you?re never low
Or face the one you fear, you?re living through another year

Another year to lie
Another year goes by
Another year to lie
Another year goes by

Parisian Skies - Lyrics - Maximo Park

Title: Parisian Skies
Artist: Maximo Park
Composer(s): Thomas Alexander English, Duncan Robert Lloyd, Paul Anthony Smith, Lukas James Wooller, Archis Tiku

Lyric:
Parisian skies
Shadows beneath your eyes
All we have is now
And the arc of your brow

You came to leave these shores
You have an inkling in your pores
We came to bid farewell
The tears began to swell

Oh, I don't think she knew
I can't forget her

The dark withholds
And lives unfold
We always slept so well
Our bodies seemed to gel

The mind persists
We have thoughts to exist
It was a test I failed
Her passion never paled

Oh, I don't think she knew
How much I loved her
Oh, I don't think she knew

Is this the thrill of the chase?
How can I keep up the pace?
Is this the thrill of the chase?
How can I keep up the pace?
Is this the thrill of the chase?
How can I keep up the pace?

Is this the thrill of the chase?
How can I keep up the pace?
Is this the thrill of the chase?
How can I keep up the pace?
Is this the thrill of the chase?
How can I keep up the pace?

Parisian skies
Shadows beneath your eyes
We always slept so well
The present casts a spell

You said we never talked
But there's a lightness that it brought
Refracting all my sins
We never lacked a thing

Oh, I don't think she knew
How much I loved her
Oh, I don't think she knew
Oh, Rebbecca, your loss was mine too

Did you ever feel the thrill of the chase?
The breath on your neck in a locked embrace?
Did you ever feel the thrill of the chase?
The hairs on your neck in lost embrace?

I love the tiny veins on your back
They remind me of the way
That porcelain cracks

The Winds That Blow - Lyrics - Phantom Moon - Duncan Sheik

Title: The Winds That Blow
Album: Phantom Moon
Artist: Duncan Sheik
Composer(s): Steven Sater, Duncan Sheik

Lyric:
All the shadows blue, in the winter moon
The stars within the darkness
They remember you and they sorrow too
With all the winds that blow

Every book you'd read, in the evening breeze
As stars shone in the darkness
Still it waits to see, will you turn its leaves
With all the winds that blow

See, the window too that once you looked through
Out on the stars, the darkness
It remembers you, in this empty room
With all the wind so cold

And that phantom moon is a window too
The stars look through the darkness
To some summer noon, where our ghosts still move
Among the winds that blow

You were my soul and my silence
You were my hope, my lightness
You were the sword at my side
Through all the winds that blow

Now, the children play, through these shorter days
Till stars show through the darkness
Now, the young men stray and nobody waits
Among the winds that blow

All the shadows blue, in the winter moon
The stars within the darkness
They'll remember you, they will sorrow too
And all the winds will blow

All the winds will blow
All the winds will blow
All the winds will blow
All the winds will blow

Watch Them Feed - Lyrics - Trigger - In Flames

Title: Watch Them Feed
Album: Trigger
Artist: In Flames
Composer(s): Anders Par Friden, Jesper Claes Stroemblad, Bjoern Ingvar Gelotte

Lyric:
I lost my visual
?Cause all you fucks are in my way
So drop her off this route
Take ?em to some far place
Watch them feed

Seal the signs of the borders
We are here to bend
Penetrate the outlines
Lightness of color

They say the world is struggling
But we are stuck upside down

Imaginary reality
Suffer from make believe
I'll chance the fate
Take ?em to some far place
Watch them feed

They say the world is struggling
But we are stuck upside down

No purpose, no scorn
No sorrow will be wasted on you
No purpose, no scorn
No sorrow will be wasted on you

They say the world is struggling
But we are stuck upside down

No purpose, no scorn
No sorrow will be wasted on you
No purpose, no scorn
No sorrow will be wasted on you

Closer To Fine - Lyrics - Retrospective - Indigo Girls

Title: Closer To Fine
Album: Retrospective
Artist: Indigo Girls
Composer(s): Keith Hunter, Emily Ann Saliers

Lyric:
I'm trying to tell you somethin' about my life
Maybe give me insight between black and white
And the best thing you've ever done for me
Is to help me take my life less seriously
It's only life after all, yea

Well darkness has a hunger that's insatiable
And lightness has a call that's hard to hear
And I wrap my fear around me like a blanket
I sailed my ship of safety till I sank it
I'm crawling on your shores

And I went to the doctor, I went to the mountains
I looked to the children, I drank from the fountains
There's more than one answer to these questions
Pointing me in a crooked line
And the less I seek my source for some definitive
(The less I seek my source)

Closer I am to fine
(Fine, yea)
Closer I am to fine
(Fine, yea)

And I went to see the doctor of philosophy
With a poster of Rasputin and a beard down to his knee
He never did marry or see a B grade movie
He graded my performance, he said he could see through me
I spent four years prostrate to the higher mind
Got my paper and I was free

And I went to the doctor, I went to the mountains
(Ooh)
I looked to the children, I drank from the fountains
There's more than one answer to these questions
Pointing me in a crooked line
And the less I seek my source for some definitive
(The less I seek my source)

Closer I am to fine
(Fine, yea)
Closer I am to fine
(Fine, yea)

I stopped by the bar at three a.m.
To seek solace in a bottle or possibly a friend
And I woke up with a headache like my head against the board
Twice as cloudy as I'd been the night before
And I went in seeking clarity

I went to the doctor, I went to the mountains
I looked to the children, I drank from the fountains
And we go to the doctor, we go to the mountains
We look to the children, we drink from the fountains
Yea we go to the bible, we go through the workout
We read up on revival, we stand up for the lookout
There's more than one answer to these questions
Pointing me in a crooked line
The less I seek my source for some definitive
(The less I seek my source)

Closer I am to fine
(Fine)
Closer I am to fine
(Fine)
Closer I am to fine
(Fine, yea)

Your Way - Lyrics - Sophie Zelmani

Title: Your Way
Artist: Sophie Zelmani
Composer(s): Lars Halapi, Sophie Zelmani

Lyric:
The things we have in common are
Feelings we repress
I find you in the darkness
Where lightness means less

And times when we're in need of touching
Are when tears could get there before
We are walking with pain
When we've seen people we adore

When?
Why?
Where?
When?

The things we're calling secrets
Are usually the way in
We go to sleep with the knowledge
That each mind has sins

Why?
Where?
When?

Times when we are lifted
The fall feels so high
We cry over beauty
It hurts to smile

My way is your way
Your way is mine
My way is your way
And your way is mine

Black And White Boy - Lyrics - Crowded House

Title: Black And White Boy
Artist: Crowded House
Composer(s): Neil Mullane Finn

Lyric:
Black and white boy, black and white boy
You're so extreme, you're so confused
Now color me in whatever mood I'm in
I could be still in touch with you

And you're full of the wonder of spring
It's all sweetness and lightness you bring
And a room full of people
Fall to your infinite charm

But when darkness should quickly descend
You go quietly, my miserable friend
To the depths of despair you will crawl
Black and white boy

Black and white boy, black and white boy
You're so extreme, you're so confused
Now color me in whatever mood I'm in
I could be still in touch with you

When you shake off the shadows of night
And your eyes are so clear and so bright
You'll make fools of the liars and creeps
Put a rose in my cheeks

But when demons have climbed on your back
You are vicious and quick to attack
And you put on a wonderful show
Do you really, really think I don't know?
Black and white boy, black and white boy

And you run like a cat to the cream
And you're acting so nice it's obscene
You put on a wonderful show
Do you really, really think I don't know?
Black and white boy, black and white boy
Black and white boy, black and white boy
