Arcade Fire: Cold Wind




In the middle of the summer
I'm not sleeping
Cold wind blowing
In the middle of the night they
Try to find me but I'm still driving
If you're going to San Francisco
Lay some flowers on the grave stone
There's music on the station but I'm just listening to cold wind whistling
And if they ever find me tell the papers cold wind, cold wind
cold, cold wind blowing
cold wind blowing
Hey Hey Hey
Something ain't right
Something ain't right
And if they ever find me tell the papers cold wind, cold wind
Cold, cold wind blowing, cold wind blowing, cold wind blowing,
cold wind blowing, cold wind blowing

Inara George: Fools In Love



Fools in love, are there any other kinds of lovers?
Fools in love, is there any other kind of pain?

Everything you do, everywhere you go now
Everything you touch, everything you feel
Everything you see, everything you know now
Everything you do, you do it for your baby love,
your baby love, your baby love, your baby love

Fools in love, are there any creatures more pathetic?
Fools in love, never knowing when they lost the game.

Everything you do, everywhere you go now
Everything you touch, everything you feel
Everything you see, everything you know now
Everything you do, you do it for your baby love,
your baby love, your baby love, your baby love

Fools in love they think they're heroes,
cos they get to feel no pain
I say fools in love are zeroes
I should know, I should know
Because this fool's in love again

Fools in love, gently hold each other's hands forever
Fools in love, gently tear each other limb from limb

Everything you do, everywhere you go now
Everything you touch, everything you feel
Everything you do, even rock 'n' roll now
Nothing mean a thing except you and your baby love
your baby love, your baby love, your baby love

Fools in love they think they're heroes
Cos they get to feel no pain
I say fools in love are zeroes
I should know, I should know
Because this fool's in love again

Jem: Save Me



Save me save me save me wooh

I've gotta stop my mind
Working overtime
It's driving me insane
It will not let me live
Always so negative
It's become my enemy
Save me ah ah save me ah ah
save me ah wooh
Save me ah ah save me ah ah
save me ah wooh
Why would I think such things
Crazy thoughts have quick wings
Gaining momentum fast
One minute I am fine
The next I've lost my mind
To a fake fantasy
And none of these
thoughts are real
So why is it that I feel
So cut up and so bad
I need to take control
Coz my mind is on a roll
And it isn't listening to me
Save me ah ah save me ah ah
save me ah wooh
[thinking and thinking]
Save me ah ah save me ah ah
save me ah wooh
[thinking and thinking]
Mirror mirror on the wall
Who's the dumbest of them all
Insecurities keep growing
Wasted energies are flowing
Anger, pain and sadness beckon
Panic sets in in a second
Be aware it's just your mind
And you can stop it anytime
Save me ah ah save me ah ah
save me ah wooh
[thinking and thinking]
Save me ah ah save me ah ah
save me ah wooh
[thinking and thinking]
Ok so here we go
If it works I'll let you know
One two three I say stop

Battles: Atlas



People won't be people when they hear this sound
That's been glowing in the dark at the edge of town
People won't be people, no
The people won't be people when they hear this sound
Won't you show me what begins at the edge of town

The singer is a crook
The singer is a crook

The singer is a crook
The singer is a crook
The kitchen is the cook
The scissors are the barbers
The singer is a crook
The chorus, full of actors

The chorus doesn't matter

P.S. This is one of the best songs to listen, when stoned!

Shawn Lee: No Surprises



A heart that's full up like a landfill,
a job that slowly kills you,
bruises that won't heal.
You look so tired-unhappy,
bring down the government,
they don't, they don't speak for us.
I'll take a quiet life,
a handshake of carbon monoxide,

with no alarms and no surprises,
no alarms and no surprises,
no alarms and no surprises,
no alarms and no surprises,
Silent silent.

This is my final fit,
my final bellyache,

with no alarms and no surprises,
no alarms and no surprises,
no alarms and no surprises please.

Such a pretty house
and such a pretty garden.

No alarms and no surprises (get me outta here),
no alarms and no surprises (get me outta here),
no alarms and no surprises, please.

Blonde Redhead: The Dress



Tears You See On My Face, You Do Have Something To Do With
Fear Starts Creeping Up When You Have So Much To Lose
Your Love Waits You While You're Cheating
Lightning Strikes You When You're Moving

The Light You See In My Eyes, You Do Have Something To Do With
Play The Game Namely Love, Play It Like You Have Nothing To Lose
Horse Loves You When You Move With Him
People Hate You When You're Changing

Don't Let The Dress Trick You
I Love You Less Now That I Know You
I Won't Count The Scars Again
I Love You Less Now That I Know You

The Glow You See On My Face, You Do Have Something To Do With
Fear Starts Creeping Up When You Have So Much To Lose
Your Love Wait You While You're Cheating
Lighting Strikes You When You're Moving

Don't Let Me Wonder Away
I Love You Less Now That I Know You
Don't Let The Dress Trick You
I Love You Less Now That I Know You

I Won't Count The Scars Again
Because I Love You
