shipperxDoing the Music Meme last night made me feel all nostalgic, so I've uploaded songs from the groups I had in the meme-- partly to send to myself to place on my work playlist and partly to share if anyone would like any of the songs
Spark - Tori Amos
She’s convinced she could hold back a glacier\But she couldn’t keep baby alive\Doubting if there’s a woman in there somewhere (here)\ You say you don’t want it again (and again)\ but you don’t don’t really mean it\ You say you don’t want it, this circus we’re in\ But you don’t really mean it...
Cupid's Got a Brand New Gun - Michael Penn
It's hiding in the corner of every sacred place\ Before the ambush, you were one to recognize its face\ It slithers like a viper and readies its attack\ tears your flesh and soul apart then clings onto your back\ But not 'til it turns away can you feel the pain of all the damage done\ And you might notice that this quick opiate might wear the wings of angels\ that's when you realize you've been shot down\ wounded unto death by something called love...
Orestes - A Perfect Circle
metaphor for a mystic moment\ pull me into your perfect circle\ one womb\ one shape\ one resolve\ liberate this will\ and release us all...
Me and the Devil - Cowboy Junkies
Early this morning he knocked on my door\ I said "Hello, Satan, I believe it's time to go"\ Me and The Devil are walkin' side by side\ Me and The Devil are walkin' side by side\ I'm goin' to beat my man until I get satisfied...
Collapse the Light into Earth - Pocupine Tree
I won't shiver in the cold\ I won't let the shadows take their toll\ I won't cover my head in the dark\ And I won't forget you when we part\ Collapse the Light Into Earth\ I won't heal given time\ I won't try to change your mind\ I won't feel better in the cold light of day\ But I wouldn't stop you if you wanted to stay...
Shadows in the mirror - Chris Isaak
I'm watching somebody's heart break in two\ And wondering if somewhere you're crying too\ Shadows in the mirror tell me that I'm wrong\ shadows in the mirror tell me that we're through\ I'm watching somebody's world at an end\ And wondering if someday we'll love again\ Shadows in the mirror tell me that I'm wrong...
Break Your Heart - Barenaked Ladies
The bravest thing I've ever done was to run away and hide\ But not this time (not this time)\ And the weakest thing I've ever done was to stay right by your side\ Just like this time... and every time\ I couldn't tell you I was happy when you were gone\ So I lied and said that I missed you when we were apart\ I couldn't tell you, so I had to lead you on\ But I didn't mean to break your heart\ And if I always seem distracted\ Like my mind is somewhere else\ That's because it's true\ Yes, it's true\ It's this stupid pride that makes me feel like I have to follow through\ Even half-assedly, loving you\ Why must I always speak in terms of cowardice?\ When I guess I should have just come out and told you right from the start\ Why must I always tell you all I want is this?\ I guess cause I wouldn't want to break your heart...
Kiss Off - Violent Femmes
Hey, kid, you're sick\ Well, darling, this is it\ You can all just kiss off into the air\ Behind my back, I can see them stare\ They’ll hurt me bad, but I won’t mind\ They’ll hurt me bad\ They do it all the time...
Only One - Lifehouse
She's got a pretty smile\ it covers up the poison that she hides\ She walks around in circles in my head\ waiting for a chance to take me\ a chance to break me\ a chance to take me down\ now, I see this burden you gave me\ is too much to carry\ and too much to bury inside...
Somewhere a Clock is Ticking - Snow Patrol
You can't leave\ Every second, dripping off my fingertips\ Wage your war\ Another soldier, says he's not afraid to die\ Well, I'm scared...
The Sky is Broken - Moby
The sky is breaking\ It's deeper than love\ I know the way you feel\ like the rain outside...
Drop - Blue October
Fourteen million miles away from sane\A dark man in the restroom window pane\Whose words just pour out human pain.
Grey Street - Dave Matthews Band
There’s an emptiness inside her\ And she’d do anything to fill it in\ And though it's red blood bleeding from her now\ Felt like cold blue ice in her heart when all the colors mix together to grey\ And it breaks her heart\ You know, she wishes it was different\ And she prays to God most every night\ Although she's quite sure he doesn’t listen\ There’s a tiny hope in her he might...
Bukowski - Modest Mouse
Woke up this morning and it seemed to me\ that every night turns out to be\ just a little bit more like Bukowski\ And yeah. I know. He's a pretty good read\ But, God, who'd wanna be?\ Who'd wanna be such an asshole?
Will the Future Blame Us - Our Lady Peace
Is it getting better?\ Can we live forever?\ I'm not sure what the hell we're fighting for\ Does the money make us?\ And will the future blame us?\ I don't wanna know\ And I don't ask why anymore...
r-evolve - 30 seconds to mars
To find yourself\ Just look inside the wreckage of your past\ To lose it\ all you have to do is lie...
