pearl jam - corduroy
"the waiting drove me mad... you're finally here and i'm a mess
i take your entrance back... can't let you roam inside my head
i don't want to take what you can give...
i would rather starve than eat your bread...
i would rather run but i can't walk...
guess i'll lie alone just like before...
i'll take the vermin's path... oh, and i must refuse your test
a-push me and i will resist... this behavior's not unique
i don't want to hear from those who know...
they can buy, but can't put on my clothes...
i don't want to limp for them to walk...
never would have known of me before...
i don't want to be held in your debt...
i'll pay it off in blood, let i be wed...
i'm already cut up and half dead...
i'll end up alone like i began...
everything has chains... absolutely nothing's changed
"take my hand, not my picture," spilled my tincture
i don't want to take what you can give...
i would rather starve than eat your bread...
all the things that others want for me...
can't buy what i want because it's free...
can't buy what i want because it's free...
can't be what you want because i'm...
why ain't it supposed to be just fun
oh, to live and die, let it be done
i figure i'll be damned, all alone like i began...
it's your move now...
i thought you were a friend, but i guess i, i guess i hate you..

2014/07/27: florence + the machine - drumming song (8 bit remix)
florence + the machine - drumming song (8 bit remix)
"
there's a drumming noise inside my head
that starts when you're around
i swear that you could hear it
it makes such an all mighty sound
there's a drumming noise inside my head
that throws me to the ground
i swear that you should hear it
it makes such an all mighty sound
louder than sirens
louder than bells
sweeter than heaven
and hotter than hell
i ran to a tower where the church bells chime
i hoped that they would clear my mind
they left a ringing in my ear
but that drum's still beating loud and clear
louder than sirens
louder than bells
sweeter than heaven
and hotter than hell
louder than sirens
louder than bells
sweeter than heaven
and hotter than hell
louder than sirens
louder than bells
sweeter than heaven
and hotter than hell
as i move my feet towards your body
i can hear this beat it fills my head up
and gets louder and louder
it fills my head up and gets louder and louder
i run to the river and dive straight in
i pray that the water will drown out the din
but as the water fills my mouth
it couldn't wash the echoes out
but as the water fills my mouth
it couldn't wash the echoes out
i swallow the sound and it swallows me whole
till there's nothing left inside my soul
as empty as that beating drum
but the sound has just begun
as i move my feet towards your body
i can hear this beat it fills my head up
and gets louder and louder
it fills my head up and gets louder and louder
there's a drumming noise inside my head
that starts when you're around
i swear that you could hear it
it makes such an all mighty sound
there's a drumming noise inside my head
that starts when you're around
i swear that you could hear it
it makes such an all mighty sound
louder than sirens
louder than bells
sweeter than heaven
and hotter than hell
louder than sirens
louder than bells
sweeter than heaven
and hotter than hell
as i move my feet towards your body
i can hear this beat it fills my head up
and gets louder and louder
it fills my head up and gets louder and louder

daughter - touch

love hunt me down
i can't stand to be so dead behind the eyes
and feed me, spark me up
a creature in my blood stream chews me up
so i can feel something
so i can feel something
give me touch
'cause i've been missing it
i'm dreaming of
strangers
kissing me in the night
just so i
just so i
can feel something
you steal me away
with your eyes and with your mouth
and just take me back to a room in your house
and stare at me with the lights off
to feel something
in the night
in the night
in the night
when we touch
in the night
'cause i've been lusting it
"

lykke li - gunshot
"
i am longing for your poison
like a cancer for its prey
shot an arrow, in your harbor
where you waited in the rain
i am siren, i am ivy
i am no one, i'm nobody
i am longing for your honey
i am longing for your love
and the shot goes through my head and back
gunshot, i can't take it back
lay me down in your ocean
carry me and my burden
i was dreaming about you honey
i was hoping you'd save me
and the shot goes through my head and back
gunshot, i can't take it back
my heart cracked, really loved you bad
gunshot, i'll never get you back
and i ache, while you're not here
i can feel you aching
wide awake, why you're not here
i can feel you firing straight into my heart
goes through my head and back
gunshot, i can't take it back
my heart cracked, really loved you bad
gunshot, i'll never get you back, never get you back
never get you back, never get you back, never get you back

gil scott-heron - runnning

because i always feel like running
not away,
because there is no such place
because, if there was i would have found it by now
because it's easier to run,
easier than staying and finding out you're the only one...who didn't run
because running will be the way your life and mine will be described
as in "the long run"
or as in having given someone a "run for his money"
or as in "running out of time"
because running makes me look like everyone else,
though i hope there will ever be cause for that
because i will be running in the other direction,
not running for cover
because if i knew where cover was,
i would stay there and never have to run for it
not running for my life,
because i have to be running for something of more value to be running
and not in fear
because the thing i fear cannot be escaped,
eluded,
avoided,
hidden from,
protected from,
gotten away from,
not without showing the fear
as i see it now
because closer,
clearer,
no sir,
nearer
because of you
and because of that nice
that you quietly,
quickly
be causing
and because you're going to see me run soon
and because you're going to know why i'm running then
you'll know then
because i'm not going to tell you now

gil scott-heron - i'm new here
"
i did not become someone different
that i did not want to be
but i'm new here
will you show me around
no matter how far wrong you've gone
you can always turn around
met a woman in a bar
told her i was hard to get to know
and near impossible to forget
she said i had an ego on me
the size of texas
well i'm new here and i forget
does that mean big or small
no matter how far wrong you've gone
you can always turn around
and i'm shedding plates like a snake
and it may be crazy but i'm
the closest thing i have
to a voice of reason
turn around, turn around, turn around
and you may come full circle
and be new here again
