✖ CARINA ROUND // FOR EVERYTHING A REASON

And so they say, for everything a reason
My house is haunted by rotten desire
And on my skin left the scent of indignation
And so they say, baby, for everything a reason

Don’t call me back, I had everything I needed
For every lie, honey, the truth lies underneath it
And so they say, baby, for everything a reason
And so they say, baby, you will be brought back to me..

I saw you leaving, I saw the light go out
Come back to me….

✖ ROSI GOLAN // CAN’T GO BACK

Some things you can’t go back to, some things need left alone
Don’t mess with the memories of a life passed on
Oh the tumbling reservations at the heart of my mistakes
Oh some things you can’t go back to, ‘cause you let them slip away.

I don’t wanna be a witness to a path that’s overgrown
I don’t wanna see this house not be a home
‘Cause time has taken toll on what we couldn’t see
No I don’t wanna be a witness to the end of you and me…

How am I gonna make each moment better than the last?
How am I gonna make it better if I can’t go back?
Oh the tumbling reservations at the heart of my mistakes
Oh some things you can’t go back to, ‘cause you let them slip away
Oh some things you can’t go back to…

✖ ADELE // DON’T YOU REMEMBER?

When will I see you again? You left with no goodbye,
Not a single word was said, no final kiss to seal any
scene… I had no idea of the state we were in.

I know I have a fickle heart and a bitterness,
And a wandering eye, and heaviness in my head,

But don’t you remember? Don’t you remember?
The reason you loved me before, Baby, please
remember me once more…

When was the last time you thought of me?
Or have you completely erased me from your
memory? I often think about where I went wrong,
The more I do, the less I know…

✖ BIRDY // WITHOUT A WORD 

You can tell the world that you’re leaving. And
you can pack your bags, and spread your wings
You can tell them all that it’s over, but while
you wave goodbye, I’ll be getting closer…

Stand there and look into my eyes,
And tell me that all we had were lies
Show me that you don’t care
And I’ll stay here, if you prefer.
Yes I’ll leave you without a word
Without a word…..

[ BARCELONA // GET UP, GET UP, GET UP ]

Five days after black and red collide.
The motion sickness past, I’ll be the first to stand.
Behind that weathered door, I thought it would be safest.
My head is dizzy now, I thought we’d overcome.
We might not make it home tonight.

Crawling on the ash, she’s pitiful.
She lost her sense of light; she has to hold my hand.
Had I known we might be two kids without their jackets,
My fear would come alive, I wouldn’t love her now.
She might not make it home tonight.

[ THE NATIONAL // EXILE VILIFY ]

Exile, it takes your mind, again…
Oh, you meant so much
Have you given up?

Does it feel like a trial?
Does it trouble your mind the way you trouble mine?
Does it feel like a trial?
Now you’re thinking too fast 
You’re like marbles on glass

Vilify…. Don’t even try…

[ MARIAH MCMANUS // SECRETS ]

Tell me your secrets, ask me your questions
Give me a reason for everything you’ve done
Tell me this one thing, did you ever believe in me?
Was there ever a question that you’re the one I want?

So could you honestly tell me that you’re actually sorry,
That you meant every word you said?

So you come knocking on my door, spent too many
nights waiting for you to come back around, to come
back to this town… Don’t tell me you love me, then
walk out the door, spent too many nights waiting for
you to come back around, to come back to this town…. 

[ ANDREW BELLE // IN MY VEINS ]

Nothin’ goes as planned, everything will break.
People say goodbye, in their own special way.
All that you rely on, and all that you can fake
Will leave you in the morning, but find you in the day

Oh you’re in my veins, and I cannot get you out
Oh you’re all I taste at night inside of my mouth
Oh you run away, cause I am not what you found
Oh you’re in my veins, and I cannot get you out.

Everything will change, nothin’ stays the same.
And nobody here’s perfect, oh, but everyone’s to blame.
All that you rely on, and all that you can save
Will leave you in the morning, and find you in the day…

[ ☠ 30 SECONDS TO MARS //
  STRANGER IN A STRANGE LAND ]

Enemy of mine, I’ll fuck you like the devil
Violent inside, beautiful and evil
I’m a ghost, you’re an angel, one and
the same, just remains of an age…

Lost in a daydream, what do you see?
If you’re looking for Jesus, then get
on your knees…

Enemy of mine I’m just a stranger
in a strange land, Running out of
time, better go, go, go…

Angel or demon, I gave up my soul
I’m guilty of treason, I’ve abandoned
control t o n i g h t….

[ THE RESCUES || MY HEART WITH YOU ]

Waited a hundred years to see your face
and I would wait a hundred more, if only
to be near you, to have you and to hear
you.. Isn’t that what time is for?

…

A tattered photograph my pocket holds,
I keep you secretly. I’ve studied every line,
You’re etched upon my mind, for not a
million soldiers could take you from me.

My love, the reason I survive,
trust we’ll be together soon.
Should our fire turn to dark,
take my heart with you.

[ SAY ANYTHING || WALK THROUGH HELL ]

And if I was brave, I’d climb up to you on the mountain.
They led you to drink from their fountain spouting lies.
And I’d slay the horrible beast they commissioned
To steer me away from my mission to your eyes.

And I’d stand there, like a soldier, with my foot
upon his chest. with my grin spread, and my arms
out, in my bloodstained Sunday’s best, and you’d
hold me, I’d remind you who you are…
Under their shell..

I’d walk through hell for you, Let it burn right
through my shoes, these soles are useless without you.
‘Through hell for you, let the torturing ensue.
My soul is useless without you.

[ LYDIA || ALL I SEE ]

So come closer, baby
I want to see what you’re made of
‘Cause this isn’t all we could be
You’re not the same, and I’m,
…I’m not the same and…

You are the never ending sleep
That I love to treat with this medicine
I get from my, my closer friend
But all I see… ( scares me. )

[ GOO GOO DOLLS || IRIS ]

And I’d give up forever to touch you
Cuz I know that you feel me somehow
You’re the closest to heaven that I’ll ever be
And I don’t want to go home right now

And all I can taste is this moment
And all I can breathe is your life
Cuz sooner or later it’s over
I just don’t want to miss you tonight

And I don’t want the world to see me
Cuz I don’t think that they’d understand
When everything’s made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am.

[ RED || PIECES ]

I’m here again, A thousand miles away from you
A broken mess, just scattered pieces of who I am
I tried so hard, thought I could do this on my own
I’ve lost so much along the way….

Then I see your face, I know I’m finally yours
I find everything I thought I lost before
You call my name, I come to you in pieces
So you can make me whole.

[ YELLOWCARD || ONLY ONE ]

I’ve made my mistakes, let you down
And I can’t, I can’t hold on for too long
Ran my whole life in the ground
And I can’t, I can’t get up when you’re gone

Something’s breaking up, I feel like giving up
I won’t walk out until you know….

Here I go, scream my lungs out
and try to get to you,
you are my only one,
I let go, there’s just no one
who gets me like you do
You are my only, my only one…

Here I go, so dishonestly
Leave a note for you, my only one
And I know you can see right though me
So let me go and you will find someone…
