Shoulda Known ~ Atmosphere

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YEZseJ1Wuq8

Naked in the bathtub, sittin' on the porcelin
Waitin for that little hurricane to pull your torso
And the water don't run; just drips like rain
Still drips like a painkiller drips to the veins
Fill it up with a bag of that happy stuff
Cause the way she runs out you can tell she ain't had enough
Good times goddess, my goodness
Goth fingernail polish autopilot footprints
With a smile that's stitched to the fabric
Of bedtime tales that keep them kids out of the attic
The mouth of madness, loud and manic
The motive of the word, hold it south on the atlas
Picture a hole, put your hero in
Envision the goal, now zero in
Been watchin' your night train track for the last few stops
With no desire to hop in
How did we end up in your apartment?
Pocket full of gossip says this ain't smart
When it's all said and done can't hit restart
But I'll be damned if I don't wanna kiss you (hard)

[Chorus (x2)]
Shoulda known better not to fuck with you
Ain't got nothin' but too much to lose
Lost in the rush, don't know what to do
That drug got you like I want you

I've got a restraining order against satan's daughter
And I keep it at the bottom of this Jamieson & water
And when we get there, just sit there and stare
From behind your mascara and your thick hair
I'm aware of that pain you harbor
The same that give game to the names you martyr
Apart from the details of substance and what not
I fucks wit that hunger of love pistol gut rot
Blodshot, gimme one shot, my shot
Propped up on enough talk to make the time stop
The lines of chalk that that Benjamin might cop
Killed the illustrations on them neighborhood sidewalk
Then all of a sudden she got silent
Pupils like marbles hide behind the eyelids
Getaway sticks, go limp in ?ho? place
That fucked up smile sucked up most her face
Truly beauty, seemed serene, each criticism becomes redeemed
Swollow my words no more judgement is through
Cause you look like what I feel like when i'm with you

Miles From Our Home

No one in sight for fifty miles,
sleeping fields sigh as I glide across their spines.
If I could just reach the crest of that hill
this whole day will tumble and out the night will spill.

The sky is still as a spinning top,
shooting stars drop like burning words from above.
If I could just connect all these dots,
the truth would tumble like a Cynic vexed by love.

And yet the people keep saying
I'm miles from my home,
miles from my home.

I met you again in my sleep last night,
these are days of slow boats and false starts.
Hearts remain under lock and key,
you will be the one to set them both free.

And yet the people will tell you
your miles from your home,
miles from your home.

But that's where I want to be
Out there searching,
out here fumbling,
out here waiting
for you and you for me.

The moon hangs like a question mark,
pale as milk, bold as a promise.
When will you share the sights with us?
When will we hold you in our arms?

And the people we'll tell them
we're miles from our home,
miles from our home.
 
The Cars

Can I touch you
Are you out of touch
I guess I never
Noticed that much

Geranium lover
I'm live on your wire
Oh, come and take me
Whoever you are

She's a lot like you
The dangerous type
She's a lot like you
Come on and hold me tight

Oh, inside angel
Always upset
Keeps on forgetting
That we ever met

Can I bring you
Out in the light
My curiosity's
Got me tonight

Museum directors
With high shaking heads
They kick white shadows
Until they play dead

They want to crack
Your crossword smile
Oh, can I take you
Out for awhile, yeah

Go

Can't think, can't sleep, can't breathe
Can't think, can't...


Everything gettin' harder to find
Everybody jumpin' out of they mind
Everybody goin' out of they skins
See we get to the end but that's where we begin
You feel it
Mannequins say "We breakin' the mold"
Breakin' out and we breakin' the codes
Similar to the Jacques Cousteau
To the depths and you're wet
So your tank explodes, so get it out
Send your body to flight
Everybody got a target tonight
Everybody come along for the ride
All you studs and you duds and you ladies, let's fly
Grip the moment like you grippin' the earth
Feel the weight and you feelin' the girth
Now you get it, now you feelin' your worth
Feel the sound you used to make when everything thing used to hurt
It goes


Oh, no time to rest
Just do your best
Oh, what you hear is not a test
We're only here to make you
We're only here to make you
We're only here to make you
We're only here to make you go


Gotta go, gotta make it in time
Brightest star gonna be the guide
Gotta get you to the other side
To where the butterflies and where the peach reside
The first five minutes for the fifteen of fame
Five seconds 'fore you're saying my name
I'm deadly sharpshooting the game
Gonna hit you and this whole execution is aim
Get together and we building a fire
Clear smoke and it's taking us higher
Hands up, everyone is one
If you see yourself making it
You're seeing the sun
Metropolis on the edge of control
They take our money, but they won't take our soul
Fuck that, ain't gon' do it no mo'
Won't do what we told and we ain't gonna fold
We go

Daylight again, memories fall like rain
Remind you to take it slow
One step at a time, baby
'Til you find your way
Back to the big show
Places you been
Things that you done
Somehow you're still on the run

Just another rider
On that train to nowhere
Just another fool
Too far from home
Just another stranger
Tryin' to get somewhere
Somewhere, but you're still all alone

Watching the world passin' you by
'Cause you tell everybody that you must be cursed
Tell them all how you try, try, try
But your luck keeps gettin' worse
Seems like such a long long time
Since you've had, a little piece of mind

Just another rider
On that train to nowhere
Just another fool too far from home
Just another stranger
Tryin' to get somewhere
Somewhere but you're still all alone

Punch your ticket, drop your load
Time for you, time for you to get on board
I know you love it
You know it too
What in the world has become of you
Do you remember, blue skies were shinin'
Money flowed, flowed like wine
You had a real good woman
Yes, she was sure, she was sure enough fine
Storm clouds risin' in from the sea
Winds are blowin' cold reality

Just another rider
On that train to nowhere
Just another fool, too far from home
Just another stranger
Tryin' to get somewhere
Somewhere but you're still all alone

Just another rider
On that train to nowhere
Just another fool, too far from home
Just another stranger
Tryin' to get somewhere
Somewhere but you're still all alone

what I want, hurry and buy,
all has been tried, follow reason and buy,
Cannot shuffle in this heat, it's all wrong
Try to put that on your sleeve it's all wrong, all wrong

He's got pretty persuasion
She's got pretty persuasion
Goddamn your confusion
She's got pretty persuasion

It's what I want, hurry and buy,
all has been tried, follow reasoning,
And I put that in this heat it's all wrong
Try to wear that on my sleeve it's all wrong, all wrong

He's got pretty persuasion
She's got pretty persuasion
Goddamn your confusion
He's got pretty persuasion

In the light I saw
quite a scene there

It's what I want, hurry and buy,
all has been tried, follow reason and buy,
Try to put that in this heat it's all wrong
Cannot wear that on your sleeve it's all wrong, all wrong

He's got pretty persuasion
She's got pretty persuasion
Goddamn your confusion
He's got pretty persua-a-a-a


Lorde

Wait 'til you're announced
We've not yet lost all our graces
The hounds will stay in chains
Look upon Your Greatness and she'll send the call out
(Send the call out) [15x]

Call all the ladies out
They're in their finery
A hundred jewels on throats
A hundred jewels between teeth
Now bring my boys in
Their skin in craters like the moon
The moon we love like a brother, while he glows through the room

Dancin' around the lies we tell
Dancin' around big eyes as well
Even the comatose they don't dance and tell

[Chorus:]
We live in cities you'll never see on screen
Not very pretty, but we sure know how to run things
Living in ruins of a palace within my dreams
And you know, we're on each other's team

I'm kind of over getting told to throw my hands up in the air, so there
So all the cups got broke
(Mads ?)
shards beneath our feet but it wasn't my fault
And everyone's competing for a love they won't receive
'Cause what this palace wants is release

[Chorus:]
We live in cities you'll never see on screen
Not very pretty, but we sure know how to run things
Living in ruins of a palace within my dreams
And you know, we're on each other's team

I'm kind of over getting told to throw my hands up in the air
So there
I'm kinda older than I was when I revelled without a care
So there

[Chorus:]
We live in cities you'll never see on screen
Not very pretty, but we sure know how to run things
Living in ruins of a palace within my dreams
And you know, we're on each other's team
We're on each other's team
And you know, we're on each other's team
We're on each other's team
And you know, and you know, and you know
 
The Pixies
Outside there's a box car waiting
Outside the family stew
Out by the fire breathing
Outside we wait 'til face turns blue

There is a wait so long
You'll never wait so long

Here comes your man
Here comes your man
Here comes your man
Here comes your man

I know the nervous walking
I know the dirty beard hangs
Out by the box car waiting
Take me away to nowhere plains

There is a wait so long
You'll never wait so long

(I am amazed that the sticks do not fly out of his hands!)

Here comes your man
Here comes your man
Here comes your man
Here comes your man

Pauline Viardot Romance for Violin

blurb-

Ulf Schneider (violin) and Stephan Imorde (piano) perform 'Romance', the first of Pauline Viardot-Garcia's 6 Morceaux pour piano et violon, dedicated to her son Paul and first published in Paris in 1867. Pauline Viardot, sister of La Malibran, was herself a very successful opera singer and close friend of both Chopin and George Sand. Brahms wrote his Alto Rhapsody for her, and in later years she became friendly with many up-coming composers including Tchaikovsky and Fauré,. She owned the original manuscript of Mozart's Don Giovanni, which she donated to the Paris Conservatoire. Throughout her life she spent much time composing (including several operas) and arranging music for voice (including a set of Chopin's Mazurkas, several of which she performed with Chopin himself). Born in Paris on 18 July 1821 she died on 18 May 1910 at the age of 88.
 
Ezra Furman

There's not a single song of his I've left off my playlist and that doesn't happen often.
 
one more.

I walked past just a yesterday
And I couldn't bare that new mall no more
I don't expect you know to feel my way
But you don't know the trees that were there before
And now I want them to put back that old corner store.

I walked past just a like I say
And I felt the hurt that would not go home
I don't expect you know to see way
But you may not know the trees I've known
And I want them to put back that corner store.

we're gonna rock it

take it to the bridge

I don't care if it costs more money to shop there
cause this was love, cause this was love
I don't care if you have to walk longer
I'll walk further, I'll pay more
I don't really want what the new mall's got
I want what they've got in that corner store

And what did I feel when I walked by slow
I felt Sorrow sorrow, all around
Why I would feel that way I know
I smell the ghost smell from the ground
That old wooden smell of the corner store

And I wished the worst for the place I shop
I don't expect you're gonna know quite what I mean
But I spot a trend that has got to stop
I want them to put back that corner store

I got one more verse for ya

I walked past just one last time
and I couldn't soothe my poor heart's pain
I don't expect you to feel like I'm
I just want you to dig what I now name
I want them to put back that corner store, yeah

Can I sleep in your brain tonight, stranger?
Can I rest my bones in your head?
I won't make too much noise
While I stay here
I just need some kind of shelter

Anywhere I try to go
I'm still stuck in my own skull
And lately
That's no kind of place to call home
All the walls are falling down
Garbage lying all around
Is there maybe room
In your temporal lobe?

Can I sleep in your brain tonight, stranger?
Can I spend one night on your mind?
I can't live with this pain
With this anger
And I need someplace else to go

I wanna sleep in your brain
I wanna wake you up early
I wanna make you black coffee if
You like. (Yeah.)

I'll do whatever's required of me
To have the roof of your brain
Above me. I've got nowhere else I
Can stay tonight


Can I sleep in your brain?
