This is gospel, for the fallen ones
          Locked away in permanent slumber
            Assembling their philosophies
                       From pieces of broken memories

Date: 2018-08-02 08:18 pm (UTC)I can't help it,
I love the broken ones,
The ones who,
Need the most patching up.
The ones who've, Never been loved,
Never been loved, Never been loved enough.
And O, maybe I see a part of me in them.
The missing piece always trying to fit in.
The shattered heart,
Hungry for a home.
parachute ↦ meant to be
Date: 2018-08-02 08:19 pm (UTC)You could run so fast
You never really wanted love
And it couldn't really hold you back
You were that speed train
And you were still on the run
Yeah you would crash right in
And then you'd just move along
Drive away if you want to
You can slow down babe
But you just can't wait
Don't you see?
You can try to fight it
But it's meant to be
You and me
Don't believe
Anything they tell you
Right here
I swear
This is where you're meant to be
tori amos ↦ little earthquakes
Date: 2018-08-02 08:21 pm (UTC)Yellow bird flying
Gets shot in the wing
Good year for hunters
And Christmas parties
And I hate, and I hate
And I hate, and I hate
Elevator music
The way we fight
The way I'm left here silent
Oh, these little earthquakes
Here we go again
Oh, these little earthquakes
Doesn't take much
to rip us into pieces
red hot chili peppers ↦ can't stop
Date: 2018-08-02 08:23 pm (UTC)Chop Top, he says I'm gonna win big
Choose not a life of imitation
Distant cousin to the reservation
Defunct the pistol that you pay for
This punk, the feeling that you stay for
In time I want to be your best friend
East side lovers living on the west end
Knocked out but boy you better come to
Don't die, you know the truth as some do
Go write your message on the pavement
Burn so bright I wonder what the wave meant
White heat is screaming in the jungle
Complete the motion if you stumble
Go ask the dust for any answers
Come back strong with fifty belly dancers
The world I love, The tears I drop
To be part of the wave, can't stop
Ever wonder if it's all for you?
the decemberists ↦ down by the water
Date: 2018-08-02 08:28 pm (UTC)See this ancient riverbed
See where all the follies are led
Down by the water and down by the old main drag
I was just some tow-head teen
Feeling 'round for fingers to get in between
Down by the water and down by the old main drag
The season rubs me wrong
The summer swells anon
So knock me down, tear me up
But I would bear it all broken just to fill my cup
Down by the water and down by the old main drag
Sweet descend this rabble round
The pretty little patter of a seaport town

mercy me ↦ homesick
Date: 2018-08-02 09:02 pm (UTC)I close my eyes and I see your face
If home's where my heart is
then I'm out of place
Lord, won't you give me strength
to make it through somehow
I've never been more homesick than now
snow patrol ↦ it's beginning to get to me
Date: 2018-08-02 09:21 pm (UTC)I only need
The compass that you gave me
To guide me on
And it's beginning to get to me
That I know more of the stars and sea
Than I do of what's in your head
Barely touching in our cold bed
Are you beginning to get, get my point?
They're always fighting with my aching joints
quietdrive ↦ forget the lies
Date: 2018-08-02 09:24 pm (UTC)Fist wrapped around the world but then it spun out of control
Because you let the right one go
Everything is not just how it seems
You've given up on hope and all your dreams
Have been distorted by the glass of gin you poured tonight
Catch you coming clean with all the honesty
You sing, it makes you cry
‘Cause you haven’t dreamed in so long, so long
Forget the lies and the lies that you're never enough
'Cause you're alive and it's time to get over yourself
We can forget the past, turn it back on track
That's where we should be
You say that we're never gonna be the same
Forget the lies
That everyone tells you
rock mafia ↦ the big bang
Date: 2018-08-02 09:41 pm (UTC)The big, big bang,
the reason I'm alive,
When all the stars collide
In this universe inside.
The big, big bang
joe crocker ↦ have a little faith in me
Date: 2018-08-02 10:02 pm (UTC)When the road gets dark
And you can no longer see
Just let my love throw a spark
And have a little faith in me
And when the tears you cry
Are all you can believe
Just give these loving arms a try
And have a little faith in me
And
Have a little faith in me
Have a little faith in me
Have a little faith in me
Have a little faith in me
When your secret heart
Cannot speak so easily
Come here darlin'
From a whisper start
To have a little faith in me

My regret
Only makes me
Stronger yet
Nothing I’ve ever done right
Happened on the safe side
It’s the other way
I’m missing everyone I know now
It’s too late in the day
Too late in the day
To take you on
All the rides
I was afraid to tell you that
Back to that photograph
Can you clone me?
I look like everyone you know now
daughtry ↦ undefeated
Date: 2018-08-04 04:08 am (UTC)And in this world of compromise
I hit every curb, every red light
Trying to keep both hands on the wheel
But through it all I'm
Still undefeated
With my back against the ropes
Still undefeated
You can knock me down with mighty blows
But you cannot break my hope
Weak knees, can't stand
Raise up your hands
Don't walk away
Been sucker punched but I'm not down
My feet have never left the ground
It's a fight that I can't fix
Like a cut that needs a stitch
And somehow through it all I stay
Still undefeated
sara bareilles ↦ king of anything
Date: 2018-08-04 04:19 am (UTC)You've got opinions, man
We're all entitled to 'em, but I never asked
So let me thank you for your time,
And try not to waste anymore of mine
And get out of here fast
I hate to break it to you babe,
but I'm not drowning
There's no one here to save
Who cares if you disagree?
You are not me
Who made you king of anything?
So you dare tell me who to be?
Who died and made you king of anything?
daughtry ↦ call your name
Date: 2018-08-04 03:08 pm (UTC)There's gotta be a better way for me to say
What's on my heart without leaving scars
So can you hear me when I call your name?
And when you fall apart am I the reason for your endless sorrow?
There's so much to be said
And with a broken heart your walls can only go down but so low
Can you hear me when I call your name?
When I call your name
Complicated situations are the makings of all that's wrong
And I've been standing in the river of deliverance way too long
There's gotta be a better way for me to say
What's on my heart without leaving scars
So can you hear me when I call your name?
nathan wiley ↦ north american dream
Date: 2018-08-05 12:48 am (UTC)All you gotta do is go take one for the team
take apart the pieces, separating the seams
power comes in numbers when you're kicking the steam
living for the moment, north american dream
screaming and a running trying to make your escape
while the changing of the guard is just a give and take
filling up on your prescription with the kings in your hand
while the sucker's at the station waiting on a command
sweet talk radio ↦ dance with me
Date: 2018-08-05 12:53 am (UTC)Dance with me
Come and sweep me off my feet
You know, I feel this way
Everytime our eyes meet
Don't wait and stay a stranger
What's life without a little danger
Oh darling, won't you please
Dance with me
Take a chance with me
Gamble on romance with me
If they always played it safe
Where would legendary lovers be?
Alone on a starlit night
No arms to hold on tight
Oh darling, won't you please
Dance with me

Date: 2018-08-05 01:05 am (UTC)Lucy Ripley
Feel like a big old stone
Standing by a strength of my own
But everytime the morning breaks
I know I'm closer to falling
I'm all out of luck
I'm all out of fatih
I would give everything just for one taste
But everything's here all out of place
Losing my memory
Saving my face
Saving my face
Saving my face
I'm saving my face
I'm listening to what you say
Even though I look the other way
But you could never understand
The feeling of what I'm needing

the fray ↦ hold my hand
Date: 2018-08-05 01:16 am (UTC)I found a picture in that basement
My face a hundred years ago
But I don't want to do like he did,
So full of pride and all alone
Escape is in my blood
Fear is in my bones
But I don't want to walk that road
Please help me?
Hold my hand, I can hear ghosts calling
Help me stand, even if the sky is falling
And I want you to know, I can't do it alone
Hold my hand, my hand, my hand
This is the burden that I carry
And it goes back a hundred years
And all the shit I did, I'm done with it
You've got every right to leave
But stay with me

I'll teach you to Dance
I'll spin you around
Won't let you fall down
Would you let me lead?
You can step on my feet
Give it a try
It'll be alright
The room's hush hush
And now is our moment
Take it in
Feel it all
And hold it
volume iii
Date: 2018-08-02 09:26 pm (UTC)he is we ↦ blame it on the rain
Date: 2018-08-02 11:24 pm (UTC)You, got me caught in all this mess.
I guess, we can blame it on the rain.
My pain is knowing I can’t have you,
I can’t have you.
Tell me does she look at you the way I do,
Try to understand the words you say,
and the way you move?
Does she get the same big rush,
When you go in for a hug and your cheeks brush?
Tell me am I crazy, or is this more than a crush?
I catch my breath,
The one you took
the moment you entered the room.
of monsters and men ↦ little talks
Date: 2018-08-03 03:08 am (UTC)Why can't you just forget about algebra?
It's all about you now
And all your talk of logic and formula
Could never help you now, not anymore
'Cause you were always on the run
From the darkness in your heart
So you wear it on the outside
Of your chest
I have taken the liberty
To tell your ghost to go
Bribing them with sunlight and sympathy
They promised not to show for a while
And your heart is greater than
The sum of you and everyone
But still you're always on the run
From the poison in your lungs
And your heart is on the outside
Of your chest
r.e.m ↦ the great beyond
Date: 2018-08-03 03:41 am (UTC)From your eyes
All the sights that I have seen
I can't believe that
I believed I wished
That you could see
There's a new planet
In the solar system
There is nothing up my sleeve
I'm pushing an elephant up the stairs
I'm tossing out punchlines
That were never there
Over my shoulder a piano falls
Crashing to the ground
he is we ↦ rain in july
Date: 2018-08-03 11:58 am (UTC)Bring me back to holding hands in the rain,
I swear I'd ease your pain.
Lift you up so you could finally see
The love you are to me.
Why'd I have to go and do you like that?
Thought I'd moved on, then you brought me right back.
To the night you took my kiss away from me.
I took yours too, then I lost you.
I've had time and I've had change
I've been broken but still I can't explain.
Every part of me is broken now
I tried to scream but nothing came out
Drop my pride and I reveal my inside
And it all came pouring out.
This melody
Will never speak
All the things that I regret
if I could say anything
kelly clarkson ↦ people like us
Date: 2018-08-03 11:59 am (UTC)Fight Your Future
We come into this world unknown
But know that we are not alone
They try and knock us down
But change is coming, it's our time now
Hey everybody loses it
Everybody wants to throw it all away sometimes
And hey, yeah I know what you're going through
Don't let it get the best of you, you'll make it out alive
Oh, people like us we've gotta stick together
Keep your head up, nothing lasts forever
Here's to the damned to the lost and forgotten
It's hard to get high when you're living on the bottom
blue october ↦ ugly side
Date: 2018-08-03 12:00 pm (UTC)Somehow I slept
I dream, I mean
I dreamt of nothing
Able to breathe a sweet relief
Now that you're here for me
A northern degree
Dove into me
Now I'm recovering
I only want you to see
My favorite part of me,
And not my ugly side...
Not my ugly side.
For conversation flow.
I'm shoved in your cage,
to wage this rage,
Don't let me go.
A kick and a scream is all that seems
to mean a lot thus far.
I won't let you on my stage, my page,
You can't know
onerepublic ↦ if i lose myself tonight
Date: 2018-08-03 12:02 pm (UTC)I stared up at the sun
Thought of all the people,
Places and things I've loved
You can feel the light start to tremble
Washing what you know out to sea
You can see your life out of the window, tonight
If I lose myself tonight
It'll be by your side
If I lose myself tonight
It'll be by your side
ellie goulding ↦ your song
Date: 2018-08-03 12:02 pm (UTC)Excuse me forgetting
But these things I do
See I've forgotten if
They're green or they're blue
Anyway the thing is,
What I really mean,
Yours are the sweetest eyes
I've ever seen
And you can tell everybody
This is your song
It maybe quite simple but
Now that it's done
I hope you don't mind
I hope you don't mind
That I put down in words
How wonderful life is
Now you're in the world
etta james ↦ at last
Date: 2018-08-03 12:04 pm (UTC)I found a dream that I could speak to
A dream that I can call my own
I found a thrill to press my cheek to
A thrill I've never known, oh yeah
You smiled, you smiled oh
and then the spell was cast
And here we are in Heaven
For you are mine at last
quiet company ↦ you, me, and the boatman
Date: 2018-08-03 12:07 pm (UTC)Lover, won't you stay with me
Until the boatman comes for me
And kindly carries me across the sea?
Oh, everybody knows what it looks like to be in love.
Even the boatman knows it's so but he still has to do his job.
I know it's tough
I know it sucks.
So lover won't you stay with me,
Till the boatman comes...
Because I don't care about the past or future,
When this existence is probably all we have.
owl city ↦ through a window
Date: 2018-08-03 12:14 pm (UTC)I've learned to slam on the brake
Before I even turn the key
Before I make the mistake
Before I lead with the worst of me
Give them no reason to stare
No slipping up if you slip away
So I got nothing to share
No, I got nothing to say
Step out, step out of the sun
If you keep getting burned
Step out,
step out of the sun
Because you've learned,
because you've learned
civil twilight ↦ holy weather
Date: 2018-08-03 12:22 pm (UTC)Before I Let You Go
So we walked on water
And crossed the fields
Of burning sand
But the further we went,
The more we became
What we couldn't understand
I was drifting further away
She was lost like a breeze
In a hurricane
A hurricane
You know I've got you
In my blood-stream
You know that no matter
How loud I scream,
I still hear your voice in my head
You are the fire burning solo
You are the wind
In between the snow
I can't escape you
quiet drive ↦ even when i'm gone
Date: 2018-08-03 09:43 pm (UTC)Do It All Again
There's a light in my heart that can't be contained
You knew right from the start, that there's no one here to blame
And my world it drifts apart from the one that remains
And then I long for this place, and I want to be free from these chains
So if I could write a song so you won't forget my name
A song so beautiful, I can get my wings
So send me off with your love,
I'll fly like a dove.
Even though my heart is young,
I will face this day with all
My gratitude, my humbleness, my bravery
I will open up the doors into the sky
so I can ask God why
