Time Has Told Me [Nick Drake - Five Leaves Left 1969]
------------------------------------------Time has told me you’re a rare, rare find a troubled cure for a troubled mind. And time has told me not to ask for more for someday our Ocean will find it’s shore. So I’ll leave the ways of making me be what I really don’t want to be, leave the ways that are making me love what I really don’t want to love. Time has told me you came with the dawn a soul with no footprint a rose with no thorn. Your tears they tell me there’s really no way of ending your troubles with things you can say. And time will tell you to stay by my side to keep on trying ‘til theres no more to hide. So leave the ways that are making you be what you really don’t want to be, leave the ways that are making you love what you really don’t want to love. Time has told me you’re a rare, rare find a troubled cure for a troubled mind. And time has told me not to ask for more for someday our ocean will find its shore.
Years On Me [Headswim - Despite Yourself 1997]
------------------------------------------I don't have anywhere else left to go, thought I could hold on but I let it all go thought I could hold on, but I let it all go. And I don't have anything else left to say, thought I should speak but the words ran away thought I should speak but the words ran away. And I don't have anything else left to like, trying to love but just turning a spike inside you turning the spike inside you. I don't have anywhere else I can look, nowhere where I cannot see what I took from your life, let you waste your years on me, let you waste all your years on me, a million years.
Street Spirit [Fade Out] [Radiohead - The Bends 1995]
------------------------------------------Rows of houses, all bearing down on me I can feel their blue hands touching me all these things into position all these things we'll one day swallow whole fade out again and fade out This machine will, will not communicate these thoughts and the strain I am under be a world child, form a circle before we all go under fade out again and fade out again Cracked eggs, dead birds scream as they fight for life I can feel death, can see its beady eyes all these things into position all these things we'll one day swallow whole fade out again and fade out again Immerse your soul in love iMMersE your soUL in LOVE
Tourniquet [Headswim - Despite Yourself 1997]
------------------------------------------Life come undone mortal coil sprung lifted your drifted welcoming sun some days I feel brave riding the air waves locked in this room Give me some room scratching the pavement grazed knees and broken nails some small token of how life goes by I'd love to see you try I won't steal your pain just tighten the tourniquet you're losing the feeling and I won't bring you down ripped and twisted again you're losing the feeling I'm counting the hours the beauty in dead flowers heart that keeps you warm the things you don't think about like why we feel so old eyes like pissholes in the snow wanting to leave I won't steal your pain just tighten the tourniquet you're losing the feeling and I won't bring you down ripped and twisted again you're losing the feeling All your life you stayed in tune singing songs, songs for the doomed it's always lonely being free never what you wanted to be And I won't steal your pain just tighten the tourniquet you're losing the feeling and if I bring you down you're too happy to be saved losing the feeling ripped and twisted again
Release [Pearl Jam - Ten 1991]
------------------------------------------I see the world feel the chill which way to go windowsill. I see the words on a rocking horse of time I see the birds in the rain... Oh dear dad can you see me now? I am myself like you somehow. I'll ride the wave where it takes me I'll hold the pain release me... Oh dear dad can you see me now? I am myself like you somehow. I'll wait up in the dark for you to speak to me I'll open up release me release me release me and release me...
Just Like U Said It Would B
[Sinéad O'Connor - The Lion and The Cobra 1987]
I will walk in the garden feel religion within I will learn how to run with the big boys I will learn how to sink and to swim. And there's talk in the houses and people dancing in rings. Ah, when you close my eyes, babe I can see most everything I can see most everything... It's just like u said it would b It's Just like u said it would b It's just like u said it would b It's Just like u said it would b I can see too many mouths open Too many eyes closed, ears closed Not enough minds open Too many legs open Tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me do Why isn't it, why, why I don't see why I listen, why, why. When I've walked in the garden when I'm walking off stage when everything's quiet Will you stay? Will you be my lover? Will you be my mama? I said will you be my lover? I said will you be my babe? when I lay down my head at the end of my day nothing would, nothing would please me better than I find that you're there when I lay down my head at the end of my day; nothing would, nothing would please me better than I find that you're there when I wake... Just like u said it would b Just like u said it would b Just like u said it would b Just like u said it would b Will you be my lover? Will you be my mama? Just like u said it would b Just like u said it would b Just like u said it would b Just like u said it would b Just like u said it would b
Clinging to the Wreckage [Headswim - Despite Yourself 1997]
------------------------------------------Today I'll start again in sunrise I can dream and see you there you're frozen in my stare they can care enough to pretend we can all pretend to care we can all pretend to care And I'm clinging to the wreckage, and I'm losing something I'll never find clinging to the wreckage and I'm... going down there Today she goes again leave flowers on the shore elegant yet meaningless her lure so lucid seemed the days when we would walk now I can never walk away I can never walk away And I'm clinging to the wreckage, and I'm losing something I'll never find clinging to the wreckage, and I'm... I'm going down there Today I'll start again in sunrise I can dream and see you there you're frozen in my stare they can care enough to pretend we can all pretend to care we can all pretend to care And I'm clinging to the wreckage, and I'm losing something I'll never find clinging to the wreckage, and I'm... losing something I'll never find
Hide and Seek [Howard Jones - Human's Lib 1984]
------------------------------------------There was a time when there was nothing at all nothing at all just a distant hum. There was a being and he lived on his own he had no one to talk to and nothing to do. He drew up the plans learnt to work with his hands a million years passed by and his work was done. [and his words were these] Hope you find it in everything everything that you see hope you find it in everything everything that you see hope you find it hope you find it hope you find me in you. So she had built her elaborate home with its ups and its downs its rain and its sun. She decided that her work, it was done time to have fun and found a game to play. Then as part of the game she completely forgot where she'd hidden herself and she spent the rest of her time trying to find the parts. Hope you find it in everything everything that you see hope you find it in everything everything that you see hope you find it hope you find it Hope you find me in you... There was a time when there was nothing at all nothing at all just a distant hum.
Don't Give Up [Peter Gabriel - So 1986]
------------------------------------------In this proud land we grew up strong we were wanted all along I was taught to fight, taught to win I never thought I could fail. No fight left or so it seems I am a man whose dreams have all deserted I've changed my face, I've changed my name but no-one wants you when you lose. Don't give up 'cause you have friends don't give up you're not beaten yet don't give up I know you can make it good. Though I saw it all around never thought that I could be affected thought that we'd be last to go it's so strange the way things turn. Drove the night toward my home the place that I was born, on the lakeside; as daylight broke, I saw the earth the trees had burned down to the ground. Don't give up you still have us don't give up we don't need much of anything don't give up 'cause somewhere there's a place where we belong. Rest your head you worry too much it's going to be all right; when times get rough you can fall back on us don't give up please don't give up. Got to walk out of here I can't take any more going to stand on that bridge keep my eyes down below whatever may come and whatever may go that river's flowing that river's flowing. Moved on to another town tried hard to settle down for every job, so many men so many men no-one needs. Don't give up 'cause you have friends don't give up you're not the only one don't give up no reason to be ashamed don't give up you still have us don't give up now we're proud of who you are don't give up you know it's never been easy don't give up 'cause I believe there's a place there's a place where we belong... [don't give up, don't give up, don't give up]
Wishing I Was Naive [Headswim - Despite Yourself 1997]
------------------------------------------Never cared for yesterday never thought I'd be ashamed even in the sun so close to pain wishing I was naive again This one is for love in the sun kicking up dust never thought you'd fall when it comes, it comes to us all And I'm missing you now more than I'm worth becoming a curse Wish I was naive you could comfort me say anything you please I'm only crying you see Sad to see you fade sad to see you go come back yesterday I won't be so cold And I'm missing you now more than I'm worth becoming a curse and I'm missing you now more than I'm worth becoming a curse Wish I was naive you could comfort me say anything you please I'm only crying you see Wish I was naive you could comfort me say anything you please I'm only crying you see I'm only crying you see
