"In This Shirt" by The Irrepressibles

I am lost, in our rainbow, now our rainbow has gone,

Overcast, by your shadow, as our worlds move on,

But in this shirt, I can be you, to be near you for a while,

There's a crane, knocking down all those things, that we were,

I awake, in the night, to hear the engines purr,

There's a pain, it does ripple through my frame, makes me lame,

There's a thorn, in my side, it's the shame, it's the pride...

Of you and me, ever changing, moving on now, moving fast,

And his touch, must be wanted, must become, through your ask,

But I need Jake to tell you, that I love you, it never rests,

And I've bled every day now, for a year, for a year,

I did send you a note on the wind for to read....

... Our names there together must have fallen like a seed...

... To the depths of the soil buried deep in the ground,

On the wind, I could hear you, call my name, held the sounds,

I am lost,

I am lost, in our rainbow, now our rainbow has gone,

I am lost, in our rainbow, now our rainbow has gone,

I am lost.

Hell's Bells

Woke up with this song in my head. Heard it on True Blood and fell in love. Not a fantastic music video but kind of nostalgic in a low budget way.

Well hell's bells, what you trying to sell?
Put it on the table before they take us to jail.
What you said, got a bottle to your head,
And you never saw it coming, and your pretty white shirt is red!

Well, guess that's what you get!
When you leaned on me, I heard you asking for it.
Did you not come here looking for a fight?
They say brown liquor make you sleep all right,

Cocaine make you grind your teeth all night!

Well who's that calling? Is that your little darling?
Wish she come running? Or will she go back crawling?
On your hands and knees, baby don't you tease,
Sugar momma cut you off at the knees - (HEY!)

Well, guess that's what you get!
When you were leaning on me, I heard you asking for it.
Did you not come here looking for a fight?
Well you say brown liquor make you sleep all right,

Cocaine make you grind your teeth all night!

Well he found you out, and word got around,
That you gave us up without a sound,
You came up for air, put your feet over there,
And you tried to run off, but couldn't go nowhere.

Well, I guess that's what you get!
You were leaning on me, I heard you asking for it.
Did you not come here looking for a fight?
Well ya say brown liquor make you sleep all right,

Cocaine make you grind your teeth all night!

They say brown liquor make you sleep all right,
Cocaine make you grind your teeth all night!
Cocaine make you grind your teeth all night!
Cocaine make you grind your teeth all night!
Cocaine make you grind your teeth all night!

End Love

This bands music videos make my life, but I actually quite like the lyrics too to this song. It's been my theme song these last few days. :)

Oh sugar,

Oh sugar can't you see

How hard I'm trying?
You know you gotta

You know you gotta eventually

Make up your mind.
'Cause no one's gonna find you

When you're hiding in the dark.
No one's gonna find you

When you're hiding in the dark.
No one's gonna find you

When you're hiding in the dark.

No one's gonna find you.

So won't you,

So won't you talk to me?
It's time to decide.
'Cause no one's gonna save you

If you don't swim for the boat.
No one's gonna save yo

If you won't take the rope.
No one's gonna find you

When you're hiding in the dark.

No one's gonna find you.

And it's end love, the sky is falling.
End love, the sky is falling.

The sky is falling.

So sugar,

So sugar dance with me

This one last time.
We got no reason,

We got no reason I can see

To hold back tonight.
'Cause no one's gonna catch you

If you can't just let go.
No one's gonna love you

If you can't let love show.
No one's gonna find you

When you're hiding in the dark.

No one's gonna find you.

And it's end love, the sky is falling.
End love, the sky is falling.

The sky is falling.

Oh sugar,

Oh sugar can't you see

How hard I'm trying?
You know you gotta,

You know you gotta eventually

Make up your mind.

(You gotta make up your mind).

And it's end love, the sky is falling.
End love, the sky is falling.

The sky is falling.

End love, the sky is falling.

End love, the sky is falling.

End love, the sky, the sky is falling

End love, the sky is, the sky is falling.

Electric Eyes

Electric Eyes, by Metaform on their album The Electric Mist

Just....wonderful. Close your eyes or turn on a really trippy screensaver to watch in a dark room.

I’m counting the moons, while I’m thinking of you
while I’m jamming this tune, and I’m keepin it true.
I savor the mood, til seven the morn
Got diamonds for souls, I’m a regular dude.
Some keepin quiet, while I’m starting a riot
Just give me a reason, and it’s gotta be live.
I’m sitting alone in a one bedroom home,
like a rocket ship that’s about to explode.

I saw the flash of light, inside my mind,
I like it so divine, electric eyes.

Got something to say on a rainy day
My 9-5 can’t take my soul.
I’m too awake I’m too alive
Not satisfied with a world of lies.
Lay down in a grave go back to sleep
Or so they’d wish for you to go away
Your one true face could shine so bright
I see in you electric eyes

I saw the flash of light, inside my mind,
I like it so divine, electric eyes.

Blue Lips

I love Regina Spektor so so much. I just can't get over her songwriting skills. She's so fucking awesome.

He stumbled into faith and thought,
"God, this is all there is?"
The pictures in his mind arose,
And began to breathe.
And all the gods and all the worlds
Began colliding on a
Backdrop of
Blue.

Blue lips,
Blue veins.

He took a step, but then felt tired.
He said, "I'll rest a little while."
But when he tried to walk again,
He wasn't a child.
And all the people hurried past,
Real fast,
And no one ever smiled.

Blue lips,
Blue veins.
Blue,
The color of our planet from far, far away.
Blue lips,
Blue veins.
Blue,
The color of our planet from far, far away.

He stumbled into faith and thought,
"God, this is all there is?"
The pictures in his mind arose,
And began to breathe.
And no one saw, and no one heard.
They just followed the lead.
The pictures in his mind awoke,
And began to breed.

They started out beneath the knowledge tree.
Then they chopped it down to make white picket fences,
And, marching along the railroad tracks,
They smile real wide for the camera lenses.
They made it past the enemy lines
Just to become enslaved in the assembly lines.

Blue lips,
Blue veins.
Blue,
The color of our planet from far, far away.
Blue lips,
Blue veins.
Blue,
The color of our planet from far, far away.
Blue,
The most human color.
Blue,
The most human color.
Blue,
The most human color...
Blue lips,
Blue veins.
Blue,
The color of our planet from far, far away.

Space Oddity

Space Oddity by David Bowie

So to continue my space themed music - this one's just....such a classic. Oh my. Love Bowie.

Ground Control to Major Tom
Ground Control to Major Tom
Take your protein pills and put your helmet on

(Ten, Nine, Eight, Seven, Six, Five, Four, Three, Two, One, Liftoff)

Ground Control to Major Tom
Commencing countdown, engines on
Check ignition and may God's love be with you

This is Ground Control to Major Tom
You've really made the grade
And the papers want to know whose shirts you wear
Now it's time to leave the capsule if you dare

This is Major Tom to Ground Control
I'm stepping through the door
And I'm floating in a most peculiar way
And the stars look very different today
For here
Am I sitting in a tin can
Far above the world
Planet Earth is blue
And there's nothing I can do

Though I'm past one hundred thousand miles
I'm feeling very still
And I think my spaceship knows which way to go
Tell my wife I love her very much she knows

Ground Control to Major Tom
Your circuit's dead, there's something wrong
Can you hear me, Major Tom?
Can you hear me, Major Tom?
Can you hear me, Major Tom?
Can you....

Here am I floating round my tin can
Far above the Moon
Planet Earth is blue
And there's nothing I can do.

Don't Cry Out

Don't Cry Out by Shiny Toy Guns

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nw6b6tLY8RA


This....is my most favorite song in the world. It is so....just everything about it is perfect, in my opinion. It hits that spot just below the heartstrings in exactly the right way, any and every time I listen to it. I love. This song. With all my mind and soul.

I don't get you
I can't forget what you've forgotten
All along
I've never been so alone

Don't cry out
Cease fire

I was pretending
Your secret kiss of confidence
Was my escape
The perfect game to play

Don't cry out
Cease fire

Ten nine eight and I'm breaking away
I'm all dressed up and I'm ready to play
Seven six five four and I'm all over you
Counting three two one and I'm having fun

Your fascination
With naked walls of silk and skin
With no conditions
I needed you to notice
That's all I wanted

Don't cry out
Cease fire

Ten nine eight and I'm breaking away
I'm all dressed up and I'm ready to play
Seven six five four and I'm all over you
Counting three two one and I'm having fun
Ten nine eight and I'm breaking away
I'm all dressed up and I'm ready to play
Seven six five four and I'm all over you
Counting three two one and I'm having fun
Ten nine eight and I'm breaking away
I'm all dressed up and I'm ready to play
Seven six five four and I'm all over you
Counting three two one and I'm having fun
Ten nine eight and I'm breaking away
I'm all dressed up and I'm ready to play
Seven six five four and I'm all over you
Counting three two one and I'm having fun...
