Graceless - The Damnwells

Graceless, by The Damnwells
The sun is shining downtown
It always wants to cry out loud
But I'm a little too late

The gun is testing your faith
It always wants to shoot you down
When you've already been saved

Don't you burn away?
Don't you feel ashamed?
Don't you take the blame?

I give my heart and soul to the ageless
I give my blood and bone to the faceless
Burning bright and cold
With a nameless night
I give my life and love to you graceless

Your wish is spinning around
It only wants to lie to you
It never wants to come true

This road that you found
It was buried alive in your dreams
With all your second-hand blues

Do you need a place to stay?
Do you see a face when you pray?
Don't you leave a trace?
Don't you sleep awake?
Don't do it for my sake

I give my heart and soul to the ageless
I give my blood and bone to the faceless
Burning bright and cold
With a nameless night
I give my life and love to you graceless

There's no time for a destination
We were killers before we were on the run
I'm a one wandering second-hand son

I give my heart and soul to the ageless
I give my blood and bone to the faceless
Burning bright and cold
With a nameless night
I give my life and love to you graceless

I give my heart and soul to the ageless
I give my blood and bone to the faceless
Burning bright and cold
With a nameless night
I give my life and love to you graceless

En kort en lång - Lisa Nilsson

Min käre vän
Kom och sätt dig hos mig
Lägg din hand i min
Du är så vacker
Dina bara ben och klännigen är fin
Det kan ta tid men om vi försöker kommer det att gå

Torka bort dina tårar så kan du se
Varthän du ska gå
Vi går tillsamans

En kort en lång
Så blev det soluppgång
Vi får allt vad vi pekar på
För världen är så stor
Och över oss är himlen blå

Nu är vi här och du ler emot mig
Fast resan varit'svår
Och vi glömmer att det varit vinter
Se nu är det vår
Vi försvann, vi var långt, långt borta
Nu kan vi gå hem

Så torka bort dina tårar så kan du se
Varthän du ska gå
Vi går tillsamans

En kort en lång
Så blev det soluppgång
Vi får allt vad vi pekar på
För världen är så stor
Och över oss är himlen blå

En kort en lång
Så blev det soluppgång
Vi får allt vad vi pekar på
För världen är så stor
Och över oss är himlen blå

En kort en lång
Så blev det soluppgång
Vi får allt vad vi pekar på
För världen är så stor
Och över oss är himlen blå

Crash and burn - Lifehouse

All these nights are catching up to me
I just can't put insomnia to sleep
I close my eyes, but all that I can see
Is someone who I'm never gonna be

I hope that you can bring me back
I gotta make it right

And if I fall and crash and burn
At least we both know that I tried
As I crawl, that's lessons learned
It remind me I survived

Silence just keeps screaming back at me
The ones I love are lost in memories
And I wish that I could take back what was done
You can only change the person you've become

I have to try and find a way
To leave it all behind

And if I fall and crash and burn
At least we both know that I tried
As I crawl, that's lessons learned
It remind me I survived

And I've been hurt and I've been scarred
At least I know that I'm alive
And If I fall and crash and burn
At least we both know that I tried

All of the things that I tried say
All of the words just got in the way
I'm waiting here, I need your help
Don't leave me down here, all by myself

And if I fall and crash and burn
At least we both know that I tried
And as I crawl, that's lessons learned
It remind me I survived

And I've been hurt and I've been scarred
At least I know that I'm alive
And If I fall and crash and burn
At least we both know that I tried

The return - Diary Of Dreams

I tried to forget you
Is it wrong to feel regret?
But how naive
How immature

I hold nothing against you
You're free of any doubt
My secret alibi
You're free of any guilt

Sometimes it feels like
The air in this world
Is not enough to keep me breathing

And sometimes it feels like
I make the same mistakes
Over and over and over again

Can I run from failure?
Can you shelter me?
Can you embrace my dying heart?

An ocean of doubts burying its hideous legacy
A storm awakening
A reason without doubt
Your ideology torn into pieces

Out of the depth arises what was long forgotten
Know that light was made of darkness
Days that end are never lost

Sometimes it feels like
The air in this world
Is not enough to keep me breathing

And sometimes it feels like
I make the same mistakes
Over and over and over again

Sometimes
The same mistakes
Over and over and over again

Sometimes
The air in this world
Is not enough to keep me breathing

It's a beautiful day - Michael Buble

I don't know why
You think that you could hold me
When you couldn't get by-by yourself
And I don't know who
Would ever want to tear the seam of someone's dream
Baby, it's fine, you said that we should just be friends
Well, I came up with that line and I'm sure
That it's for the best
If you ever change your mind, don't hold your breath

Cause you may not believe
That baby, I'm relieved
When you said goodbye, my whole world shined

Hey, hey, hey
It's a beautiful day and I can't stop myself from smiling
If we're drinking, then I'm buying
And I know there's no denying
It's a beautiful day, the sun is up, the music's playing
And even if it started raining
You won't hear this boy complaining
Cause I'm glad that you're the one who got away
It's a beautiful day

It's my turn to fly, so girls, get in line
Cause I'm easy, no playing this guy like a fool
Now I'm alright
Might've had me caged before, but not tonight

And you may not believe
That baby, I'm relieved
This fire inside, it burns too bright
I don't want to say "so long", I just want to say "goodbye"

It's a beautiful day and I can't stop myself from smiling
If we're drinking, then I'm buying
And I know there's no denying
It's a beautiful day, the sun is up, the music's playing
And even if it started raining
You won't hear this boy complaining
Cause I'm glad that you're the one who got away

Cause if you ever think I'll take up
My time with thinking of our break-up
Then you've got another thing coming your way
Cause it's a beautiful day
Beautiful day, oh baby, any day that you're gone away
It's a beautiful day

Man of a thousand faces - Regina Spektor

The man of a thousand faces
Sits down at the table
Eats a small lump of sugar
And smiles at the moon like he knows her
And begins his quiet ascension
Without anyone's sturdy instruction
To a place of no religion
Has found a path to our alikeness

His words are quiet like stains are
On a table cloth washed in a river
Stains that are trying to cover, for each other
Or at least blend in with the pattern
Good is better than perfect
Scrub til your fingers are bleeding
And I'm crying for things that I tell others to do without crying

He used to go to his favorite bookstores
And rip out his favorite pages
And stuff them into his breast pocket
And the moon to him was a stranger
Now he sits down at the table
Right next to the window
And begins his quiet ascension
Without anyone's sturdy instruction
To a place of no religion
Has found a path to our alikeness

And eats a small lump of sugar
And smiles at the moon like he knows her

Labyrinth (english version) - Oomph

Left, right, straight ahead
There's no way out, you're dead
Left, right, straight ahead
There's no way out, you're dead

Left, right, straight ahead
Left, right, straight ahead
Left, right, straight ahead
Left, right, straight ahead

The madness here has locked you up
And now your perfect world is fucked
It's taken root inside your mind
Run, child, run, run for your life

You don't know now who you are
You don't know now what love is for
The mirrored face you see is strange
There's no one here to share your pain

Knock, knock, let me in
Let me be your secret sin
Knock, knock
Knock, knock

Knock, knock, let me in
Let me be your secret sin
Knock, knock, let me in
Let me be your secret sin

Left, right, straight ahead
You're in the labyrinth
Left, right, straight ahead
Left, right, straight ahead

No one here can tell you
Which direction
Is the right one to take
Child, for heaven's sake

Left, right, straight ahead
You're in the labyrinth
Left, right, straight ahead
Left, right, straight ahead

No one here can tell you
Who is good or bad
Don't make a mistake
Child, for heaven's sake

Time and again you've kept me out
And hardened up your heart in doubt
That me inside your second skin
Has spoiled your thinking once again

When I possess your soul, I'll say things
And use you as my personal plaything
The time will come I'll dull your senses
If you don't stop, this game is endless

Knock, knock, let me in
Let me be your secret sin
Knock, knock
Knock, knock

Knock, knock, let me in
Let me be your secret sin
Knock, knock, let me in
Let me be your secret sin

Left, right, straight ahead
You're in the labyrinth
Left, right, straight ahead
Left, right, straight ahead

No one here can tell you
Which direction
Is the right one to take
Child, for heaven's sake

Left, right, straight ahead
You're in the labyrinth
Left, right, straight ahead
Left, right, straight ahead

No one here can tell you
Who is good or bad
Don't make a mistake
You're in the labyrinth
You're in the labyrinth

Knock, knock, let me in
Let me be your secret sin
Knock, knock
Knock, knock

Knock, knock, let me in
Let me be your secret sin
Knock, knock, let me in
Let me be your secret sin

Left, right, straight ahead
You're in the labyrinth
Left, right, straight ahead
Left, right, straight ahead

No one here can tell you
Which direction
Is the right one to take
Child, for heaven's sake

Left, right, straight ahead
You're in the labyrinth
Left, right, straight ahead
Left, right, straight ahead

No one here can tell you
Who is good or bad
Don't make a mistake
Child, for heaven's sake

Left, right, straight ahead
You're in the labyrinth
Left, right, straight ahead
Left, right, straight ahead

No one here can tell you
Which direction
Is the right one to take
Child, for heaven's sake

Left, right, straight ahead
You're in the labyrinth
Left, right, straight ahead
Left, right, straight ahead

No one here can tell you
Who is good or bad
Don't make a mistake

Left, right, straight ahead
There's no way out, you're dead
Left, right, straight ahead
There's no way out, you're dead

I don't know - Lostprophets

Today they asked me
"Why do you always seem to fight?"
But though I could not answer
And I'd have lost my way
I could tell that this ain't right
The morning sunrise seemed to ask me why I tried
To find the strength in people
Who had never thought about a different way of life
It just doesn't seem that easy

I don't know where to go
I don't know what to be
I don't know how to change from being me
I don't know what to say
Maybe another day
I'll stop getting lost and find my way home
All I know is gone

But the storms I've weathered
You know, they don't seem to be as bad
If you think there's hope from here
And there's a life you should now have
I don't have answers and no questions spring to mind
So here I've ended up now
There's no more signs and the roads are blocked all night
It just doesn't seem that easy

I don't know where to go
I don't know what to be
I don't know how to change from being me
I don't know what to say
Maybe another day
I'll stop getting lost and find my way home
All I know is gone

I see no reason to move on
I see no reason to move on

I don't know where to go
I don't know what to be
I don't know how to change from being me
I don't know what to say
Maybe another day
I'll stop getting lost and find my way home
All I know is gone

Hello again - Lostprophets

Hello again, why so old?
Wasn't time your friend?
I must be told
Hello again, it seems so long
Since we last met, how has it gone?

Don't accept the blame
I would, I would not complain
Cause I'm sure it wasn't your own fault
That you never made it out your vault
Just lock the door and find some time to scream
To scream again

Just say when and you'll stop the pain of your life
Bring it to an end
Just say when and you could make amends
Just say hello, say hello again

Hello again, it's not that hard
No dead ends, even with the scars

Don't accept the blame
I would, I would not complain
Cause I'm sure it wasn't your own fault
That you never made it out your vault
Just lock the door and find some time to scream

Just say when and you'll stop the pain of your life
Bring it to an end
Just say when and you could make amends
Just say hello, say hello again

You have no home, you lost your throne
Where has it gone?
Well, it could all come back
But you're being led by the walking dead
You stumble and you cracked the ground
You're pinned down

Just say when, you could stop the pain
Just say when and you could make amends
Just say hello, say hello again

Hello again
Hello again
Hello again
Hello again

It's not the end if you just say hello again

Pretty girl - Sugarcult

Pretty girl is suffering while he confesses everything
Pretty soon she'll figure out what his intentions were about
And that's what you get for falling again
You can never get him out of your head
And that's what you get for falling again
You can never get him out of your head

It's the way that he makes you feel
It's the way that he kisses you
It's the way that he makes you fall in love

She's beautiful as usual with bruises on her ego and
The killer instinct tells her to be aware of evil men
And that's what you get for falling again
You can never get him out of your head
And that's what you get for falling again
You can never get him out of your head

It's the way that he makes you feel
It's the way that he kisses you
It's the way that he makes you fall in love

It's the way that he makes you feel
It's the way that he kisses you
It's the way that he makes you fall in love

Pretty girl
Pretty girl
Pretty girl
Pretty girl

It's the way that he makes you cry
It's the way that he's in your mind
It's the way that he makes you fall in love

It's the way that he makes you feel
It's the way that he kisses you
It's the way that he makes you fall in love
