King Krule - Out getting ribs (2011)


Hate runs through my blood
What matter are words in love
But my heart always left above
I've gotta believe you now
I thought I'd never be sure about
But girl, I'm black and blue
So beaten down for you
Well, I'm beaten down and blue

Don't break away
I'll waste away
Don't break away

Lay me out across the grey
Hours I should have kept at bay
I had no choice to get away
I can't escape my own mistake
Even more when it's sweet to the taste
Red stairs lead astray
I look up and see for faith
But girl, just lean over and say
"Lay me down"
And hear me out
Take my crown
Submerse me down

But wait
I make my last request
Yours could be the best
But I need to rest
Well I've been broken down
So much has lost it now
I just wanted to say
Girl, don't you worry 'bout a thing
Girl
Baby, please

Craft Spells - The fog rose high (2011) Room 205 Sessions


you fall in love, you let him go
you know his past, now let it go
and all his time was spent alone
a pent up fear has yet to blow

indifferent to the time at hand
time stood still for another chance
fell victim to the morning light
the fog rose high
and i close my eyes
i close my eyes
the fog rose high
and i close my eyes

you held me high, don’t let me go
we spent some time, you’re all i know
and all my fear begins to flow
we closed our eyes, and begin to float

indifferent to the time at hand
time stood still for another chance
fell victim to the morning light
the fog rose high
and i close my eyes
i close my eyes
the fog rose high
and i close my eyes

[Canzoni di ieri] [Live] Duran Duran / New Religion

Duran Duran - New Religion (1982)

I've been now sauntering

Out and down the path sometime

Come on, it takes me nowhere, which I knew

Faces everywhere pulling grins and signs in things

Telling me not there, man, it's no go

Don't go there boy

I need a reason

I can't think without one now

Too much learning got to show

Call it treason

Maybe catch her, don't know how

Too many things, too much to know

Bring my timing in, seagulls gather on the wind

Lady screaming, lady leave me out

'Cause sometimes people stare

Coming down, electric chair

And steaming crowds they gather and they shout

Don't know why this evil bothers me

Take another chance boy, carry the fight,

You can take him if you're fast

So why is he trying to follow me?

Didn't I say if you're holding on

You'd be laughing at the last

How many reasons do they need?

I get along fine with them friends of mine

But you have to make a choice

I might just believe this time

You're singing out of tune but the beat's in time

And it's us who makes the noise

I'm talking for free, I can't stop myself,

It's a new religion

I've something to see, I can't help myself,

It's a new religion

Okay, my reasoning might be clouded by the sun

But someone sees the departmental lie

You know this peacetime jabbing fist in stabbing knife

Only get one look before you die

Don't know why this evil bothers me

Take another chance boy, carry the fight,

You can take him if you're fast

So why is he trying to follow me?

Didn't I say if you're holding on

You'd be laughing at the last

How many reasons do they need?

I get along fine with them friends of mine

But you have to make a choice

I might just believe this time

You're singing out of tune but the beat's in time

And it's us who makes the noise

I'm talking for free, I can't stop myself,

It's a new religion

I've something to see, I can't help myself,

It's a new religion

Gotta take pay the saints 'n sinners

In regulation hats 'n scarves 'n things

Walking in formation down the lane,

They carry their cross, make a church bell ring

Army majors pull a mean cool truth,

There lying in a swimming pool

Searching for the undeniable truth that

A man is just a fool

Don't know why this evil bothers me

Take another chance boy, carry the fight,

You can take him if you're fast

So why is he trying to follow me?

Didn't I say if you're holding on

You'd be laughing at the last

How many reasons do they need?

I get along fine with them friends of mine

But you have to make a choice

I might just believe this time

You're singing out of tune but the beat's in time

And it's us who makes the noise

I'm talking for free, I can't stop myself,

It's a new religion

I've something to see, I can't help myself,

It's a new religion

Jane's addiction - Stop! (1990)

Save the complaints

For a party conversation.

The world is loaded,

It's lit to pop and nobody is gonna stop...

No one...

No one!

No way!

Gonna stop,

Now; go!

Farm people,

Book wavers, soul savers,

Love preachers!

Lit to pop and nobody is gonna stop.

No one...

One come a day, the water will run,

No man will stand for things that he had done...

Hurrah!

And the water will run...

One come a day, the water will run,

No man will stand for things that he had done...

Hurrah!

And the water will run...

Will Run!

Will Run!

Gimmie that!

Gimmie that - your automobile,

Turn off that smokestack

And that goddamn radio

Hum... along with me...

Hum along with the t.v.

No one's
