Wayne Szalinski - Kiss Me In The City

When everything you say to me resounds so sweetly,

It ferments in mind

And when you kiss me you're thinking of the city,

Ms. pretty don't be so kind

Oh what's the use in staying here

It'll never be alright for you and i

And when you kiss me you're thinking of the city,

It ferments in mind

You say our love can make it so what's the use in breaking--

Tell me what you're waiting for

While i'm staying here you're slipping out the back door

And so there's nothing left in michigan

Oh what's the use in staying here

It'll never be alright for you and i

La Dispute - He is Here, He is Not Afraid

we move by instinct, darling let our hands be hatchets, let us wander blindly, swinging madly in a forest made of flesh. we move by instinct, darling let our eyes like lepers drive the doubters from our homes and into the bottom of the sea. and we speak in signals, darling let our smoke stitch pictures, let us twist in patterns, dull the horror of a city still on fire. for we are like medics handling suicide by cyanide with bleeding fingers. let us suffer completely inadequate. and we move like lovers, lover let me run my fingers down your side and kiss you right below the eye. we sleep with shadows but we never give them bread. horror, dress yourself in shame or i will tear a hole in you, you harlot. burn your eyes, (i will hold your white-washed bones unto the sky and scream "oh god, if you are there, i hold this body to your judgment-- give it your wrath or your mercy. but please pick wrath.")

walkin outside labyrinthian over 

cracks along under the trees i know this town grounded in a compass cardinal landing in the dogwood i keep goin over it over & over my steps iterate my shame how come every outcome's such a comedown lately afternoon with the shades drawn down i kept sayin i just wanted to see you sayin what's wrong with that? needle shakin outlines in a compass every outcome's such a comedown i knew it when i saw it so i did just what i wanted so i go through with this i knew happiness when i saw it i saw your boyfriend at the port authority that's a sort of fucked up place well so i averted my stride on a quick one he's coming back from goin over your place, huh i feel like we could forget about it i feel like i could mellow out i don't feel undone in a big way there's nothing really bad to be upset about, well just when i thought i was getting better i woke up on the ground an appointment or a disappointment any outcome's such a comedown as if i needed a reminder that i do only what i wanna so i go through with this walkin out in the nighttime springtime needling my way home i saw leah on the bus a few months ago i saw some old friends at her funeral my steps keep splitting my grief through these solipsistic moods i should call my parents when i think of them i should tell my friends when i love them maybe i should've got out a bit more when you guys where still in town but i got too caught up in my own shit that's how every outcome's such a comedown i knew it when i saw it o, i did just what i wanted so i go through with this i knew happiness when i saw it & i saw it

Apart - Play On, Soft Pipes 

[I feel it’s necessary to note that this is one of my absolute favorite emotional hardcore bands of all time. If you have never listened to them, make a point to take 3 minutes in order to listen to this song.]

…so freckles, tell me where I went wrong. I’ll do anything, I’ll be anyone to get back to where I feel I belong to go back before I kept writing the same fucking song.  These days it seems, I have to catch my breath  these nights have turned into meditation without rest  So home is living like a man on the run  now my chest neglects to protect these bruised and broken lungs  and my voice still cracks to those songs we sung  now I am not anyone’s anyone  maybe later, in another 12 months  I’ll stop placing blame, regressing.  I am not anyone  I am my own setting sun  sinking beneath the weight  of a skyline dressed in green and gold  I am dragging these nails in my hand all the way home  I’m so tired of carrying crosses  losing sleep and counting losses  Now I’m left with this hole that I’m trying to fill, but nothing comes close and nothing ever will  So if there’re any options, I’ve yet to exhausted  I’ll fill in the spaces and excavate fossils  and carry around the last three years in my pockets  and break my back under the weight of these crosses  and make believe I don’t keep time by watching losses  when in the end, I am not anyone, I am nothing.

Hey, Holy Ghost, why'd you leave me? Where'd you go? I know we ain't spoke in so long, but I've gotta know, if I'm alone. If I start drinking, I'm gonna be the town drunk. You always said I should lighten up, I'm gonna lighten up. I'm gonna lighten up. So long. I'm sorry that I wasn't who you want. If I can't make you happy, I'm no good for anyone. So long. I'm sorry that I wasn't who you you'd want. If I cant make you love me.. I shut you out, after the funeral, mired in doubt. You thought a family would help. I was struggling. You could tell. When we got the news, That you were pregnant, We painted a room, Pink and orange like a grapefruit. I know how bad you wanted this too. I know it killed you. In all my dreams, I'm in the house that I grew up in. I'm trying to be half the man I know my dad is, or was. I see me as a father looking over a daughter, Who grew up to be just like you And now, that's just a thread I can't hold onto. It's just an open wound. So long. I'm sorry that I wasn't who you want. If I can't make you happy, I'm no good for anyone. So long. I'm sorry that I wasn't who you'd want. If I cant make you love me.. Hey, Holy Ghost, Why'd you leave me? Where'd you go? Right when I fucking need you, I'm all alone. I'm all alone. So, I'll start drinking. Yeah, I'll be the town drunk. I'll be a burden on everyone.

Turnover - New Scream

Can I stay at home? I don’t want to go I don’t want to wake up till the sun is hanging low Stay up through the night, sleep away the light Just another dream I had that's better than my life Adolescent dreams gave to adult screams Paranoid that I won’t have all the things they say I need What if I don’t want a pattern on my lawn All I know is somethings wrong because everyday I’m craving that new scream lusting for more than just, old dreams I’ve been dying to feel alive And I’ve been wasting all my time, chasing the high Can I reset my brain? If not I’ll go insane, I swear to God that I don’t think I can go another day Am I the only one? Is this in all of us? I hate the thought that I’m alone But I hope that you're not craving that new scream, lusting for more than just, old dreams I’ve been dying to feel alive And I’ve been wasting all my time, chasing the high Still craving more than just, the same as how it was, I’ve been collecting dust And I’ve been waiting still craving…

CityCop - Bluebird

“This track's words are not that of our own. It is a work of the great Charles Bukowski, "Bluebird". This is just our interpretation of the song. Some of the lyrics are not the exact words of Bukowski.lyrics* "Bluebird", written by the great Charles Bukowski. This is just our interpretation of the poem. Some of the lyrics are not exact.*” There's a bluebird in my heart that wants to get out, but I'm too tough for him. I say stay in there, I'm not going to let anybody see you. There's a bluebird in my heart that wants to get out, but I pour whiskey on him and inhale cigarette smoke, and the whores and the bartenders and the grocery clerks never know that he's in there. There's a bluebird in my heart that wants to get out, but I'm too tough for him, I say stay down, do you want to mess me up? do you want to screw up the works? do you want to blow my book sales in Europe? There's a bluebird in my heart that wants to get out, but I'm too clever, I only let him out at night sometimes when everybody's asleep. I say I know you're there, so don't be sad. and then I put him back But he's singing a little in there, I haven't quite let him die. And we sleep together like that, with our secret pact, and it's nice enough to make a man weep. But I don't weep, Do you?

La Dispute - First Reactions After Falling Through the Ice

[No song is more appropriate for a blustery Michigan winter day]

I knew it was far too late to walk out on the lake then Halfway to the middle thawed I wasn’t doing all that great Had I cut my hair short? Had I grown my beard out long? Had I gone to school or…? Why do all my plans fall through? There’s a leak in the basement Stupid permanent estrangement Casement windows need glazing Hinges and arms need be replaced All the way at the edge I said I think That we should head back What if now the ice cracked? Think I felt it bend We took opposite steps Tried to even the stress Picked a safe direction but You never know the way the ice thins Half-asleep in dreams where Ceilings start collapsing Free fall through the roof beams Get startled back awake Before you hit the pavement Floor of the foundation Water in the basement Bodies in the lake Don’t panic I could hear you saying as I fell through Blackness complete down waiting till my feet touched ground At the bottom they finally did First reaction was this is it Next thought was just stay calm kick up And save your phone Because I wanted to tell you Because I thought you should know Because I thought it might scare you To see me under the ice Make you remember you cared for me What would you do if I died? Would you fly out for my funeral? Get too drunk at my wake? Would you make a scene then? Climb in and try to resuscitate me? I was on the ice and I was underwater I was getting pulled out, I was in my wet clothes Stumble on the walk back, someone stoked the fire at camp I was by the flames trying to get my body warm I was standing naked checking to see if my phone still worked I will cut my hair short Trust me, I will I will let my beard go Trust me, I will I will never tempt fate Not once, I swear I will never trust ice I will never trust a thing

Hey Mister  "Right The Wrong." Now "I Don't Care At All." Do you think you're better off now that you're alone? I don't think you know who you are.   I don't think you know where you come from and I don't think you know why you do those things you do.   Innocence of a romance you call a friend, do you cherish her? I'm taking notice but accomplishing nothing else. Do you bury her? I swear... Do you know if you're alive? Well I've been thinking over and over how brilliant tongues make distant hands and that's just thinking slowly. Like if only I had gotten out.   Won't you show her how you hold her in your head.   In your arms.   By the throat. First you tell me that I'm under... Now I'm over-complicating things and you're still twiddling your thumbs. But I'm alive... How could you do this to me?   In taking time, over and over unconscious encounters, you're no longer alone.

La Dispute - Thirteen (New June 2016)

We will kneel down in the reeds beside the water We will float two paper boats down slowly in The river spiderwebs the map like breaking glass like here might shatter Send us scattering like seeds into the wind From the cattails bursting, slamming on our skin As we chase our vessels racing toward the lake, I start to shake When you wade down ankles bare now to go swim And this is what I do now every day Travel back and forwards either way There's a village for us somewhere Northern Michigan With a dirt road leading to a covered bridge Where earlier we'd scurried off to check the cart the horse had drawn For fuses and more powder for the Fourth And in the nighttime when the first of them is lit We will sneak back there in darkness just to kiss And I'll panic at your image as the flashes split the rafter gaps Terrified you'll see my open eyelids And this is what I do now every night Try to somehow catch you in the light When summer goes the leaves shift tone then float As the canopy reverts to branch and bone Downward tumbling inadvertently, I stumble and you steady me I twirl you one quick circle, make your ankles show Then we laugh so hard we can no longer stand And you look me in the eyes and take my hands On the forest floor it's warmer than my bed has ever been before Curled up tight together like an ampersand This is what I do now all alone Count the many things that make you home And when the snow falls we will wrap ourselves in furs Lie beside the stove and stoke the fire Make the embers roar a little more, snowdrifts up the cabin door You glow, and we speak slowly, growing tired So let the winter freeze each corner of the earth Bury everything I've had in frozen dirt If I could travel back in time and find you, follow always right behind you I'd live in any age and start from birth Because this is what it is that pulls me through That you belong to me and I to you

The Cardboard Swords - Remnants

These thoughts will become more cohesive. I’ll gather my demons so I can release them in the backyard next to the remnants of my garden that you never wanted a part in. So I will take these thoughts of you and store them in the highest most unreachable cupboard in my kitchen. And I will keep them there, in some Tupperware, just in case you ever find they mean a little bit more to you.

[simplepup]

I saw my chance Saw my chance and I took it Saw the chance to lead the life I couldn’t lead

Saw my chance Saw my chance and I took it So that I could be more than My head lead me believe

And maybe it’s not so bad Drink some water, go to sleep Rinse and repeat

I saw my chance Saw my chance and I took it Saw the chance to rid myself Of my toxic waste

Saw you smile But I must have mistook it Sometimes we hide ourselves And I wish go could go back To when fragility and innocence was all I knew

You saw your life Saw your life and you took it Saw a chance to leave a life You couldn’t lead

You took your last breath I was there when you took it Did you know that we would love you either way?

CityCop - This is War, War is Hell

Welcome back. It's been a while since I've seen you around. And it's nice to have you back, it's alright, I guess we all have a little liar in all of us, it's hard to escape. You see, The devils got his hands wrapped around my throat, and he's not giving in, he's not letting go. When I see him in my sleep every night, I think I'll embrace him. Because as bad as a figure that he's become, at least I've got somebody to talk to. My minds always racing, I can never sit still, I've got this problem and it's making me ill. But It's three in the morning now, I need to get sleep, cause in a few hours the devil and I meet. The pressures weighing down on me, it's weighing down on me.

Basement - Crickets Throw Their Voice

If it all worked out we would live in a different house. We would live in a different town. This is a brand new start; clear body, broken heart. I'll come visit you when I get the chance. Breathing's not easy when you're underwater. I am drowning and you're keeping me under. Close your eyes, sleep outside. it's warmer than in here. I'll be fine, I'll run and hide. I wish I could stay here. You're still in my head. my mind's convinced that you never left. I'm counting down till I see you next. I still compare everything to your silhouette. How can I forget what is perfect?
