The Triffids....Well the drums rolled off in my forehead and the guns went off in my chest....

Remember carrying the baby for you, Crying in the wilderness, I lost track of my friends, I lost my kin, I cut them off as limbs, I drove out over the flatlands. hunting down you and him, The sky was big and empty, My chest filled to explode, I yelled my insides out at the sun, At the wide open road, it's a wide open road, it's a wide open road, How do you think it feels sleeping by yourself? when the one you love, the one you love, is with someone else, Then it's a wide open road, It's a wide open road and now you can go any place that you ever wanted to go, I wake up in the morning, thinking I'm still by your side, I reach out just to touch you, then I realise, It's a wide open road, It's a wide open road....

The Drums....Wake up, it's a beautiful morning....

Honey, while the stars are still shining, Wake up, would you like to go with me, Honey, take a run down to the beach, Oh momma, I wanna go surfin' Oh momma, I don't care about nothing, Wake up, there's a new kid in the town, Honey, he's moving into the big house, Remember when I was so very hopeless, Darling, he's gonna make it all better, Oh momma, I wanna go surfin' Oh momma, I don't care about nothing, Down down baby down by the rollercoaster....

Dalis Car....I question her around the clock, Hear myself say the world has stopped....

The first step is the worst, The dance is new, momentum high, Like swelling waves around, Hear myself say the flow has stopped, I ask can I be found? Humanity is young and sure, The judgement is the mirror, Mother Nature and all her work, The judgement is the mirror, The world confronts a change [us chained] The judgement is the mirror [It] Smile[s], conscious pain, The judgement is the mirror, The swords of men who criticize, The judgement is the mirror and this we spend to feed our pride, The judgement is the mirror, She offers me a line of truth, The danger in the mirror, She offers me a line of truth, The danger in the mirror, I question her 'round the clock, Hanging on her words, The world has stopped, The dance is new, The momentum high, Like swelling waves Around...

Klaxons....Send out a sound for the wood between the worlds....

Gently repeat as the boundaries start to swirl, Keep to the call that is twice now liminal, It’s not the same where the trails lead to the outer regions, Echoes from the otherworld turn horizons into endless ever present, Echoes, Many otherworlds true horizon start to turn, Numberless names withe the force of the ninth wave, Keep to the call that’s repeated in the outer regions, Echoes from the otherworld turn the horizon into endless ever present, Echoes, Many otherworlds true horizon makes the endless ever, Present echoes into otherworlds true horizons into the endless ever, Present echoes Many otherworlds true horizon takes a turn, Echoes reflect and change they serenade....

M.I.A. ....I fly like paper, get high like planes If you catch me at the border I got visas in my name....

If you come around here, I make 'em all day, I get one down in a second if you wait, Sometimes I feel sitting on trains, Every stop I get to I'm clocking that game, Everyone's a winner now we're making that fame, Bonafide hustler making my name, All I wanna do is *BANG BANG BANG BANG!* And *KKKAAAA CHING!* And take your money, Pirate skulls and bones, Sticks and stones and weed and bombs, Running when we hit 'em, Lethal poison through their system, No one on the corner has swag like us, Hit me on my banner prepaid wireless, We pack and deliver like UPS trucks, A radio in hell just pumping that gas, All I wanna do is *BANG BANG BANG BANG!* And *KKKAAAA CHING!* And take your money, M.I.A., Third world democracy, Yeah, I got more records than the K.G.B., So, uh, no funny business, Some some some I some I murder....

Test Icicles....As these days pass Underground breathe the air, Before you drown....

One more time...Another line, Slowly divides...Before the night is over, We could do with some more noises, Blinded by the burning lights, Turn them off, turn 'em off, Bodies break before they're white, Exposure sets before it's lost, Drawing lines, Making shapes, Stay alive, Sleep awake, We could do with some more poison and the end is hearing noises, Layers all exist within the beat, The shapes are moving all over the street, I can see that nothings moving, Is this something that's not worth losing? This will do...It'll do...Still we could...

Two Gallants....Well I spent last night in las cruces jail....

Rain and hail. born to fail. nobody come for to go my bail. sun don’t you rise no more. guess i killed one man on the county line. took his dime and i blew his mind. now i’m just sittin’ here doin’ time. sun don’t you rise no more. a restless wind is whistling through the canyons, through my head, through all the straits that i’ve survived. and in my hour of darkness i keep counsel with the dead, just enough to remind me i’m alive. i wrote to the governor for to hear my plea but he don’t even answer me. the judge said he’s bound to set my spirit free. sun don’t you rise no more. gavel fell, he chose the day, friday the thirteenth of may. but i don’t plan to go that way. sun don’t you rise no more. that’s twenty-one fell by my gun, with bullets in their brains. just need one more to match my age. then i’ll count my killin’ done but i won’t deny my name: quickest wrist of the chaparral and sage. now desperate times call for desperate men, i’m just a kid but i’ll pretend. my time will come but until then, sun don’t you rise no more....

Sparklehorse....Your face is like the sun sinking into the ocean....

Your face is like watching flowers growing in fast motion , All your kisses are swallowed, like the mornings that hollows , All vines and tree nuts will come unwound , baby you are my sunshine, my sunshine, please don't take my sunshine away , The grounded fireflys are little stars that are dying, returning to the earth, I can hear them crying , The Christmas bulbs that are swallowed, slept in a tree that's gone hollow , Never a brittle wintertime, baby you are my sunshine, sunshine, please don't take my sunshine away , Sunshine, my sunshine, please don't take my sunshine away....

Damien Rice....There's still a little bit of your taste in my mouth, There's still a little bit of you laced with my doubt....

It's still a little hard to say what's going on, There's still a little bit of your ghost your witness, There's still a little piece of your face I haven't kissed, You step a little closer each day, Still I can't see what's going on, Stones taught me to fly, Love taught me to lie, Life taught me to die, So it's not hard to fall, When you float like a cannonball, There's still a little bit of your song in my ear, There's still a little bit of your words I long to hear, You step a little closer to me, So close that I can't see what's going on, Stones taught me to fly, Love taught me to lie, Life taught me to die, So it's not hard to fall, When you float like a cannon, Stones taught me to fly, Love taught me to cry, So come on courage, Teach me to be shy, 'Cause it's not hard to fall and I don't want to scare her, It's not hard to fall and I don't wanna lose, It's not hard to grow, When you know that you just don't know

Erase Errata....What catastrophic insight You've scripted ....

Was like a sitcom, Like i want for obies And you hope for a series, Blood whithers to dust, Stick around for 7 seasons, I have studied costuming, I have good inflection, I move to the city, I practice my centering, A passion for acting filled me....

Interpol....All that I see show me your ways, teach me to meet my desires...

with some grace, All that I fear, Don't turn away and leave me to plead in this hole of a place...What if I never break, Estuary won't you take me, Far away, Far away, All that I seek, Please police me, I won't you to police me, But keep it clean, Uh...Now that you mean.. my day, Now let's take them away (that's why I hold you) Strong as you've seen, Bold as you behave (that's why I hold you) You will always obey (that's why I hold you) All that I feel, Capital ways, Teach me to grieve and conspire, With my age, All that I can see, A gold mystic spree, A seeithing routine, I could never navigate, Maybe I like to stray, No harm it seems to be less so free...Not today, It's like you want it that way, All that I see, Peaceful lifes run away from me, Run away from me, We would like to take the sights (that's why I hold you) And bring silence in disguise (that's why I hold you, dear) We would like to meet the buyer that is on your life, That's why I hold you, That's why I hold you dear, That's why I hold you...

Supergrass....Can you hear us humping on your stereo?....

Life is a cigarette, you smoke to the end, But if you rocket the middle bit, Then you burn all your friends, The wider your eyes, the bigger the lies, yes it's true, Can you hear us humping on your stereo? Can you hear us humping on your stereo? Take a look through your window now, You're all alone on the road, Well you'll burn all your bridges down and now you're losing control, The wider your eyes, the bigger the lies, yes it's true, If you make a mistake where you couldn't relate to your groove,(yes, that's true) Can you hear us humping on your stereo? Can you hear us humping on your stereo? Can you hear us humping on your stereo? Can you hear us humping on your stereo? Well now that I've met you, And I love you as a friend, Yeah but your love is mogadon, Love is the end, Well, the wider your eyes, the bigger the lies, yes it's true, If you make a mistake well you couldn't relate to your groove,yes it's true....

Badly Drawn Boy....I've been dreaming Of the things I've learnt....

About a boy who's bleeding celebrate to elevate, The joy is not the same without the pain, Oooh, Ipso facto, Using up your oxygen, You know I'm shallow, Calling out for extra help, You've got to let me in, Or let me out, Oooh something to talk about, Oooh something to talk about, Oooh Oooh Oooh, I've been dreaming Of the things I learnt, About a boy who's leaving, Nothing else to chance again, You've got to let me in, Or let me out, Oooh something to talk about, Yeah something to talk about, Oooh Oooh Oooh....

Wilki....Every time of midnight, Every time we muddle again, Hold on lovely memories....

Every sound you bring out, Every time we suffer again, Holding lovely memories, Every stand of no way, Every town we muddle again, Call, I hold your memories, Every game of no sence, Every shame we offer in game, Hold on lovely memory, Son of the blue sky...Every time of midnight, Every time we muddle again, Call and hold flash memory, Every time of midnight, Every time of midnight, Call and hold flash memory, I'd rather say, Feeding some birds lost in a cage, Kicking one's hells havings no way to go, Strolling musicians up on the way, Pulling one's leg having no way to go, Feeding some birds lost in a cage there, Beeing so free, finding the way to be, Wondering how smart it happens to be, happens to be....

Coma....Spadam, Po woli spadam, W korytarze świateł, W pomruki znaczeń….

Spadam, Jakby nie było Calego świata, Jak by nie bylo nawet mnie, Spadam, Pomiędzy zdania W niedorzeczności bez wahania, Spadam, Chroni mnie wiara Niech będzie chwałą Bogu A w mojej duszy spokój, Spadam, Co się wyprawia? Cały w spadaniu Cały ze światła, Spadam, Jaka zabawa, Jaki tu spokój, Równowaga, Spadam, Nie czuje ciała, I tylko błagam O laskę trwanie jeszcze, Spadam, Zostaniesz sama a może to mój chory sen? A może śmierć? A może nie ma, Nie, nie ma, Mozę nie ma mnie? Nie, nie, nie, nie Sen? A może śmierć? A może nie ma, Nie, nie ma, nie, Mozę nie ma mnie? Nie, nie, nie, nie, nie, nie, Sen, Śmierć, A może nie ma, nie nie ma, Mozę nie ma mnie, Nie, nie, nie, nie, nie, nie....

The Gossip....Your back's against the wall, there's no-one home to call. You're forgetting who you are....

You can't stop crying, It's part not giving in and part trusting your friends, You do it all again and I'm not lying, Oh oh oh oh ohh Oh ohh, Oh ohh Oh oh oh oh ohh Oh ohh, Standing in the way of control, You live your life, Survive the only way that you know, know, I'm doing this for you, Because it's easier to lose and it's hard to face the truth, When you think you're dying, It's part not giving in and part trusting your friends, You do it all again, But you don't stop trying, Oh oh oh oh ohh Oh ohh, Oh ohh Oh oh oh oh ohh Oh ohh, Standing in the way of control, You live your life, Survive the only way that you know, know, Oh ohh Oh oh oh oh ohh Oh ohh, Oh ohh Oh oh oh oh ohh Oh ohh....

Bombay Bicycle Club.... Ghost : chasing the dream....

no I never pick up the pen, always assured but I like it when we pretend. You should be around, they should just say when, You should make time; you should make time for them, my ever changing ghost, I think he loves them the most, He always shows you where, how and when you went wrong, always planned but never get things done, I walk in the room and see you waltzing around, the love that you give is such a familiar sound, You just fly straight up and calm the fuck down, You see a house fall because you built it on the wrong ground, my ever changing ghost, I think he loves them the most, the most, He always shows you who....

Louis XIV....This soul has not yet been taken....

Could I request it back at once gratefully the sky's so blue, It's an ocean, an ocean with all sorts of life in it, but me, Why did you have to go away? Why did you have to go away? Mother, you'd scream at the king, like he's a servant from day one and you created a hole in his solid stability, You knocked him clear off his limestone rocker, Now he has left all this kingdom to me and I'm so afraid to rule alone, Now this kingdom, your closet, I’m locked in is now my home....

Pati Yang....I've heard magic through the door....

Half stairs up, I stopped: too fast, maybe the key will turn, four white walls and only one echo, I guess I talk to myself again with tens of voices, schizoframed, Soul for me a little, before the soul is gone, Shake a little and speak a little more, Soul for me a little, feel a little, If you can feel at all, I thought: On three, the miracle would become real, Isn't that what you said? and then left, since the door has shut, the silence screams, against the only prayer I've had: soul for me a little, before the soul is gone, shake a little and speak a little more, soul for me a little, feel a little, If you can feel at….

Cat Power .... Once I wanted to be the greatest, no wind or waterfall could stall me....

and then came the rush of the flood, Stars of night turned deep to dust, melt me down into big black armor, Leave no trace of grace just in your honor, Lower me down to culprit south, make 'em wash a space in town, for the lead and the dregs of my bed, I've been sleepin', lower me down, pin me in, secure the grounds for the later parade, Once I wanted to be the greatest, two fists of solid rock, with brains that could explain any feeling, Lower me down, pin me in,secure the grounds, for the lead and the dregs of my bed, I've been sleepin' for the later parade....

Cinema Strange.... In the fog, in the woods, at midnight, in a land where it's always winter....

I cut the thin skin of my ankles and the wind follows me like army. lashing like a bullwhip in the arctic, i fling icicles like bee-sting! stuck under glass, in the sphere, in the snowstorm, i shut my eyes and sleep in sleet!....

The Whitest Boy Alive....Hey, you, we just got started, You can't end this now....

Hey, you, we just got started, You can't end this now. You've payed your dues, you're free, of what are you afraid? You've payed your dues, you're free, of what are you afraid? Taking on responsibility knowing it will way you down...Freedom is a possibility only if you're able to say no. People in northern Europe since medieval times, We find it hard to deal with when our dreams come true. As it happens in success in the world that afflicts the mount, and if you feel up, somebody somewhere else feels down. Taking on responsibility knowing it will way you down...Freedom is a possibility only if you're able to say no. Taking on responsibility knowing it will way you down...Freedom is a possibility only if you're able to say no....

Phoenix .... Counting all different ideas drifting away Past and present they don’t matter, now the future’s sorted out....

Watch her moving in elliptical patterns, think it’s not what you say, What you say is way too complicated, for a minute thought I couldn’t tell how to fall out, It’s twenty seconds till the last call, You’re going hey hey hey hey hey hey, Lie down you know it’s easy, Like we did it over summer long and I’ll be anything you ask and more, you’re going hey hey hey hey hey hey hey, It’s not a miracle we needed, no I wouldn’t let you think so, Fold it, fold it, fold it, fold it, Girlfriend, oh your girlfriend is drifting away, Past and present 1855 -1901 †, Watch them built up a meteor tower, think it’s not gonna stay anyway, think it’s overrated, for a minute thought I couldn’t tell how to fall out....

Rilo Kiley.... There's blood in my mouth 'Cause I've been biting my tongue all week....

I keep on talking trash, but I never say anything and the talking leads to touching and the touching leads to sex and then there is no mystery left and it's bad news, Baby, I'm bad news, I'm just bad news, bad news, bad news, I know I'm alone if I'm with or without you, but just being around you offers me another form of relief, When the loneliness leads to bad dreams and the bad dreams lead me to calling you and I call you and say: "C'MERE! and it's bad news, Baby, I'm bad news, I'm just bad news, bad news, bad news and it's bad news, Baby, it's bad news, It's just bad news, bad news, bad news 'Cause you're just damage control, for a walking corpse like me, like you, 'Cause we'll all be portions for foxes, Yeah, we'll all be portions for foxes, There's a pretty young thing in front of you and she's real pretty and she's real into you and then she's sleeping inside of you and the talking leads to touching and the touching leads to sex and then there is no mystery left and it's bad news, I don't blame you, I do the same thing, I get lonely too and you're bad news My friends tell me to leave you, That you're bad news, bad news, bad news, You're bad news....

The Dears....Let's just keep fighting the end....

we're holding hands, we're making plans for life, let's just keep fighting the end last time, I swear or we'll go nowhere tonight, Don't you think that now, is the time to move on, if you don't mind well i'll, just keep holding on for good, Let's just keep fighting the end of the world, we will hold hands and we will make plans....

Arcade Fire ....In the suburbs, I learned to drive and you told me I'd never survive....

grab your mother's keys we're leaving you always seemed so sure that one day we'd be fighting, In a suburban war your part of town against mine, I saw you standing on the opposite shore, but by the time the first bombs fell we were already bored, we were already, already bored, sometimes I can't believe, I'm moving past the feeling, sometimes I can't believe it, I'm moving past the feeling again, the kids want to be so hard, but in my dreams we're still screaming and running through the yard, when all of the walls that they built in the 70's finally fall and all of the houses they built in the 70's finally fall, meant nothing at all? It meant nothing at all, It meant nothing, Sometimes I can't believe it, I'm moving past the feeling, Sometimes I can't believe it, I'm moving past the feeling into the night, so can you understand, Why I want a daughter while I'm still young? I want to hold her hand and show her some beauty, before all this damage is done, but if it's too much to ask, If it's too much to ask, then send me a son, under the overpass, In the parking lot we're still waiting, It's already past, so move your feet from hot pavement and into the grass 'Cause it's already past, It's already, already past, sometimes I can't believe it, I'm moving past the feeling, sometimes I can't believe it, I'm moving past the feeling again, I'm moving past the feeling, I'm moving past the feeling, In my dreams we're still screaming, We're still screaming, We're still screaming….

Wolf Parade....Give me your eyes....

Give me your eyes, I need sunshine, your blood, your bones, your voice and your ghost,We've both been very brave, Walk around with both legs, Fight the scary day, We both pull the tricks out of our sleeves.... I need sunshine....

Editors....Someone hit the light 'Cause there's more here to be seen....

when you caught my eye I saw everywhere I'd been and wanna go to, You came on your own that's how you'll leave with hope in your hands and air to breathe, I won't disappoint you, as you fall apart, some things should be simple, even an end has a start, someone hit the light 'Cause there's more here to be seen, when you caught my eye, I saw everywhere I'd been and wanna go to, you came on your own, that's how you'll leave, with hope in your hands, and air to breathe, you lose everything, by the end, still my broken limbs, you find time to mend, more and more people I know are getting ill, pull something good from, the ashes now be still, you came on your own, that's how you'll leave, with hope in your hands and air to breathe, you lose everything, by the end, still my broken limbs, you choose to mend, You came on your own, that's how you'll leave, you came on your own, that's how you'll leave, you came on your own, you came on your own

Summer's in the house, untamed it was a million joys, a million joys here, You could set your watch, how untamed it was, Walking with thee, nononono no no no no no no no, as you climb up the stairsand come back forever, Summer's in the house, oh untamed it was, Walking with thee, Walking with thee and melody of joys and you can set your watch, whil hunting new words Walking with thee, Walking with thee, Walking with thee and with us, oh no, you get good affection, you can set your watch or hunting new words, Walking with thee, Walking with thee, Walking with thee, Walking with thee, No, No, Nononononononono, If you climb off the stairs and come back forever, Someone's in my house or hunting new words....

The Apples in Stereo....My oh my, oh when I dream, I remember....

When I die I know I may never come back, If I cry I know I should think of December: summertime and the sunshine are not far from that, All the times I have been trying, I try to remember. All the times I have been trying, I try to forget... When I die, will I live to remember? When I die, or will I live to forget? When I die, or will I be gone forever? Then I'll have time, I'll have the time to think about that....

Kings Of Leon ....Lay where you're laying don't make a sound....

I know they're watching, They're watching, all the commotion the kitty loved pain, has people talking, they're talking, You, Your sex is on fire, dark of the alley, the breaking of day, head while I'm driving, I'm driving, soft lips are open them knuckles are pale, feels like you're dying, You're dying, You, Your sex is on fire and so, were the words to transpire, hot as a fever, rattling bones, I could just taste it, taste it, but it's not forever, but it's just tonight, Oh we're still the greatest, the greatest, the greatest, You, Your sex is on fire, You, Your sex is on fire and so were the words to transpire and you your sex is on fire and so were the words to transpire....

Modest Mouse....The good times are killing me....

The good times are killing me. Kick butt buzz-cut dickheads who didn't like what i said. the good times are killing me....

The Futureheads....When I was a child, running in the night....

I was afraid of what might be when I was a child, running in the night, I was afraid of what might be hiding in the dark and hiding on the street and of what was following me, the hounds of love are calling I've always been a coward and I don't know what's good for me ,well here I go, it's coming at methrough the trees, help me, someone, help me, please Take your shoes off, and I will throw them in the lake and I will be, two steps on the water among your hounds of loving and feel your arms surround me, I've always been a coward, and I dont know what's good for me, do you know what I need, do you know what I need, I need love love love love love, yeah...
