I'm Still Standing - Elton John

Image
You could never know what it's like Your blood like winter freezes just like ice And there's a cold lonely light that shines from you You'll wind up like the wreck you hide behind that mask you use And did you think this fool could never win Well look at me, I'm coming back again I got a taste of love in a simple way And if you need to know while i'm still standing you just fade away Don't you know I'm still standing better than i ever did Looking like a true survivor, feeling like a little kid I'm still standing after all this time Picking up the pieces of my life without you on my mind I'm still standing yeah yeah yeah I'm still standing yeah yeah yeah Once i never could hope to win You starting down the road leaving me again The threats you made were meant to cut me down And if our love was just a circus you'd be a clown by now

Point of View - Fates Warning

Image
Looking out on a familiar scene There's no agreement in what we see Your perception lacks clarity And my perspective is blinding me Side by side Divided they stand Parallel lives running parallel with YOU To the point where our horizons divide My opinion is just a point of view And your position is the other side Caught up in our convictions we forget How our senses distort things we see We can't accept our differences But we can always disagree Side by side Divided they stand Parallel lives running parallel with YOU To the point where our horizons divide My opinion is just a point of view And your position is the other side Where I stand is not so far from YOU A different opinion is just another point of view Parallel lives running parallel with YOU To the point where our horizons divide My opinion is just a point of view And your position is the other side Parallel lives running parallel with YOU To the point where our ho

Bad Day - R.E.M.

Image
A public service announcement followed me home the other day I paid it nevermind. Go away. Shit so thick you could stir with a stick- free Teflon whitewashed presidency We're sick of being jerked around Wear that on your sleeve Broadcast me a joyful noise unto the times, lord, Count your blessings We're sick of being jerked around We all fall down Have you ever seen the televised St. Vitus subcommittee prize Investigation dance? Those-ants-in-pants glances Well, look behind the eyes It's a hallowed, hollow anesthetized "Save my own ass, screw these guys" Smoke and mirror lock down Broadcast me a joyful noise unto the times, lord, Count your blessings The papers wouldn't lie! I sigh. Not one more It's been a bad day Please don't take a picture It's been a bad day Please We're dug in the deep the price is steep The auctioneer is such a creep The lights went out, the oil ran dry We blamed it on the other guy Sure, all men are create

That's When I Reach For My Revolver - Moby

Image
Once I had my heroes Once I had my dreams But all of that is changed now The truth begins again The truth is not that comfortable, no Mother taught us patience The virtues of restraint Father taught us boundaries The knowledge we must go I'm trying to protect my unity   That's when I reach for my revolver That's when it all gets blown away That's when I reach for my revolver The spirit passes by this way A friend of mine once told me His one and only aim To build a giant castle And in it sign his name Sign it with complete community That's when I reach for my revolver That's when it all gets blown away That's when I reach for my revolver The spirit passes by this way Now that the sky is empty And that is nothing new Instead they look upon us When they tell me That we're nothing I say! That's when I reach for my revolver That's when it all gets blown away That's when I reach for my revolver The spi

Hurt - Johnny Cash

Image
I hurt myself today To see if I still feel I focus on the pain The only thing that's real  The needle tears a hole The old familiar sting Try to kill it all away But I remember everything What have I become My sweetest friend Everyone I know goes away In the end And you could have it all My empire of dirt I will let you down I will make you hurt I wear this crown of thorns Upon my liar's chair Full of broken thoughts I cannot repair Beneath the stains of time The feelings disappear You are someone else I am still right here What have I become My sweetest friend Everyone I know goes away In the end And you could have it all My empire of dirt I will let you down I will make you hurt If I could start again A million miles away I would keep myself I would find a way

Did It All For Love - Phenomena

Image
Like a flame you touched my life Felt so good felt so right Time goes fast love grows slow It's so hard to let go I'll remember, I'll remember Now I've got to go I'll remember, I'll remember Oh I love you so You gave so much, didn't ask why I can't explain so please don't cry We took the chances, broke the line Now we're running out of time We shot the dice Played the game Did it all for love Do it all again We shot the dice Played the game Did it all for love Do it all again Oh so much I want to say Now it's time to go away Now forever you're with me (yet) You're in my soul, I won't forget

Θάλασσες - ΝΑΜΑ

Image
Θα θυμάμαι με τον ήλιο το πρωί Πως ήσουν κάποτε για μένα της μέρας το φως   Θα θυμάμαι με τον ήχο της βροχής Πως όταν έφυγες μια μέρα έκλαψε κι ο ουρανός Μη ρωτάς, λοιπόν, για μένα Μη γυρνάς στα περασμένα Εγώ για σένα   Κι αν τραγούδια θα γράψω Κι αν θάλασσες κλάψω Για σένα Πίσω δε θα γυρίσω Φιλιά να ζητήσω Χαμένα Θα θυμάμαι πως οι όμορφες στιγμές Έχουν χαθεί για μας στο χθες Και δε θα ‘ρθουν ξανά Θα θυμάμαι πως οι αγάπες οι παλιές Είναι καράβια που γυρίζουν Απ’ το πουθενά   Μη ρωτάς, λοιπόν, για μένα Μη γυρνάς στα περασμένα Εγώ για σένα Κι αν τραγούδια θα γράψω Κι αν θάλασσες κλάψω Για σένα Πίσω δε θα γυρίσω Φιλιά να ζητήσω Χαμένα

Spark - Tori Amos

Image
She's addicted to nicotine patches She's addicted to nicotine patches She's afraid of the light in the dark 6:58 are you sure where my spark is Here Here Here 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 really mean it You say you don't want it This circus we're in But you don't you don't really mean it You don't really mean it If the Divine master plan is perfection Maybe next I'll give Judas a try Trusting my soul to the ice cream assassin Here   You say you don't want it again and again But you don't really mean it You say you don't want it This circus we're in But you don't you don't really mean it You don't really mean it How may fates turn around in the overtime Ballerinas that have fins that you'll never find You t

Kansas City - Marcus Mumford

I listen to you time and time again While you tell me just what's right And you tell me a thousand things a day Then sleep somewhere's else at night I'm going back to Kansas City And I love you dear, but just how long Can I keep singing the same old song And I love you dear, but just how long Can I keep singing the same old song I'm going back to Kansas City And you call me to come, then I do And you say you made some mistake You invite me into your house Then you say you gotta pay for what you break I'm going back to Kansas City And I love you dear, but just how long Can I keep singing the same old song And I love you dear, but just how long And I keep singing the same old song I'm going back to Kansas City Gypsy woman, you know every place I go Even a thousand miles away from home You don't care if I'm asleep or I'm awake This fickle heart just turn to stone I'm going back to Kansas City And I love

Love Like Blood - Killing Joke

Image
We must play our lives like soldiers in the field The life is short I'm running faster all the time Strength and beauty destined to decay So cut the rose in full bloom 'Til the fearless come and the act is done A love like blood A love like blood 'Til the fearless come and the act is done A love like blood A love like blood Everyday through all frustration and despair Love and hate fight with burning hearts  Til legends live and man is god again And self-preservation rules the day no more   We must dream of promised lands and fields That's never fade in season As we move towards no end we learn to die Red tears are shed on gray 'Til the fearless come and the act is done 'Til the fearless come and the act is done  

Atlantic City - Bruce Springsteen

Image
Well they blew up the chicken man in Philly last night  Now they blew up his house too Down on the boardwalk they're gettin' ready for a fight  Gonna see what them racket boys can do Now there's trouble busin' in from outta state And the D.A. can't get no relief Gonna be a rumble out on the promenade and The gamblin' commission's hangin' on by the skin of its teeth Everything dies baby that's a fact But maybe everything that dies someday comes back Put your makeup on fix your hair up pretty  And meet me tonight in Atlantic City   Well I got a job and tried to put my money away But I got debts that no honest man can pay So I drew what I had from the Central Trust And I bought us two tickets on that Coast City bus Everything dies baby that's a fact But maybe everything that dies someday comes back Put your makeup on fix your hair up pretty  And meet me tonight in Atlantic City Now our luck may have died and our love may be cold  But wit

A Horse With No Name - America

Image
On the first part of the journey I was looking at all the life There were plants and birds and rocks and things There was sand and hills and rings The first thing I met was a fly with a buzz And the sky with no clouds The heat was hot and the ground was dry But the air was full of sound   I've been through the desert on a horse with no name It felt good to be out of the rain In the desert you can remember your name 'Cause there ain't no one for to give you no pain La, la ... After two days in the desert sun My skin began to turn red After three days in the desert fun I was looking at a river bed And the story it told of a river that flowed Made me sad to think it was dead You see I've been through the desert on a horse with no name It felt good to be out of the rain In the desert you can remember your name 'Cause there ain't no one for to give you no pain La, la ... After nine days I let the horse run free 'Cause the deser

No Milk Today - Herman's Hermits

Image
No milk today, my love has gone away The bottle stands for lorn, a symbol of the dawn No milk today, it seems a common sight But people passing by don't know the reason why How could they know just what this message means The end of my hopes, the end of all my dreams How could they know the palace there had been Behind the door where my love reigned as queen   No milk today, it wasn't always so The company was gay, we'd turn night into day   But all that's left is a place dark and lonely A terraced house in a mean street back of town Becomes a shrine when I think of you only Just two up two down   No milk today, it wasn't always so The company was gay, we'd turn night into day As music played the faster did we dance We felt it both at once, the start of our romance   How could they know just what this message means The end of my hopes, the end of all my dreams How could they know a palace there had been Behind the door where my love

In Colors - Minor Project

Image
Cut me up in two, or three or four dark clouds. I won't bring you rain, I won't spend my time to prove you're good, or bad, or tend to feel the ground. That's not my fate That's not your land. Rising up that kids can be destroying, can be exhausting but a smile comes when they grow. Restless thoughts and actions  you're so proud of when you know. Or if you don't, they disappear and they feel wrong. Right, you look up right again. You broke your right to be the same like them. I want them real, I want them live their life in Peace. Frost! He seem to hesitate. My thoughts are black, Your ones are reprimand. I want you cool, I want you live your life in Colors. Carve your name at benches, walls or sheets. The road you walked was just a street. There are no clouds or hidden doors.

Baciami Ancora - Lorenzo Jovanotti

Image
Un bellissimo spreco di tempo, un'impresa impossibile L'invenzione di un sogno, una vita in un giorno Una tenda al di la' della duna   Un pianeta in un sasso, l'infinito in un passo  Un riflesso di un sole sull'onda di un fiume Son tornate le lucciole a Roma Nei parchi del centro l'estate profuma Una mamma, un'amante, una figlia Un impegno, una volta una nuvola scura Un magnete sul frigo, un quaderno di appunti Una casa, un aereo che vola Baciami ancora, baciami ancora Tutto il resto è un rumore lontano Una stella che esplode ai confini del cielo Baciami ancora, baciami ancora Voglio stare con te Inseguire con te Tutte le onde del nostro destino Una bimba che danza, un cielo, una stanza Una strada, un lavoro, una scuola Un pensiero che sfugge, una luce che sfiora Una fiamma che incendia l'aurora Un errore perfetto, un diamante, un difetto Uno strappo che non si ricuce Un respiro profondo per non impazzire Una s

Another Love - Tom Odell

I wanna take you somewhere so you know I care But it's so cold and I don't know where I brought you daffodils in a pretty string But they won't flower like they did last spring And I wanna kiss you, make you feel alright I'm just so tired to share my nights I wanna cry and I wanna love But all my tears have been used up On another love, another love All my tears have been used up On another love, another love All my tears have been used up On another love, another love All my tears have been used up And if somebody hurts you, I wanna fight But my hands been broken, once too many times So I'll use my voice, I'll be so fucking rude Words they always win, but I know I'll lose And I'd sing a song, that'd be just ours But I sang 'em all to another heart And I wanna cry I wanna learn to love But all my tears have been used up On another love, another love All my tears have been used up On another love, another love All
