Mercy Street by Fever Ray (Peter Gabriel cover)

Lyrics: 

Looking down on empty streets all she can see Are the dreams all made solid Are the dreams all made real All of the building, all of those cars Were once just a dream In somebody's head She pictures the broken glass, she pictures the steam She pictures a soul With no leak at the steam Let's take the boat out Wait until darkness Let's take the boat out Wait until darkness come Nowhere in the corridors of pale green and grey Nowhere in the suburbs In the cold light of day There in the midst of it so alive and alone Words support like bone Dreaming of Mercy Street Wear your inside out Dreaming of mercy In your daddy's arms again Dreaming of Mercy Street Swear they move that sign Dreaming of mercy In your daddy's arms Pulling out the papers from drawers that slide smooth Tugging at the darkness, word upon word Confessing all the secret things in the warm velvet box To the priest, he's the doctor He can handle the shocks Dreaming of the tenderness, the tremble in the hips Of kissing Mary's lips Dreaming of Mercy Street Wear your inside out Dreaming of mercy In your daddy's arms again Dreaming of Mercy Street Swear they move that sign Dreaming of mercy In your daddy's arms

Wonderfully in love with this song.

This is a cover of Peter Gabriel’s Mercy Street which was inspired by the poem: 45 Mercy Street by Anne Sexton

Fourth of July by Fall Out Boy from the new album American Beauty/American Psycho.

Really loving a lot of the tracks off of the new album.  

Enjoy!

Lyrics:

(You and I were, you and I were fire. You and I were, you and I were fire. You and I were, you and I were fire, fire, fire) It was the fourth of July You and I were, you and I were fire, fire, fireworks That went off too soon And I miss you in the June gloom, too It was the fourth of July You and I were, you and I were fire, fire, fireworks I said I'd never miss you But I guess you never know May the bridges I have burned light my way back home On the fourth of July I'll be as honest as you let me I miss your early morning company If you get me You are my favorite "what if" You are my best "I'll never know" And I'm starting to forget Just what summer ever meant to you What did it ever mean to you? Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't mean any of it I just got too lonely, lonely, whoa In between being young and being right You were my Versailles at night It was the fourth of July You and I were, you and I were fire, fire, fireworks That went off too soon And I miss you in the June gloom, too It was the fourth of July You and I were, you and I were fire, fire, fireworks I said I'd never miss you But I guess you never know May the bridges I have burned light my way back home On the fourth of July My 9 to 5 is cutting open old scars Again and again 'til I'm stuck in your head Had my doubts, but I let them out You are the drought And I'm the holy water you have been without And all my thoughts of you They could heat or cool the room And no, don't tell me you're crying Oh, honey, you don't have to lie Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't mean any of it I just got too lonely, lonely, whoa In between being young and being right You were my Versailles at night It was the fourth of July You and I were, you and I were fire, fire, fireworks That went off too soon And I miss you in the June gloom, too It was the fourth of July You and I were, you and I were fire, fire, fireworks I said I'd never miss you But I guess you never know May the bridges I have burned light my way back home On the fourth of July I wish I'd known how much you loved me I wish I cared enough to know I'm sorry every song's about you The torture of small talk with someone you used to love It was the fourth of July You and I were, you and I were fire, fire, fireworks That went off too soon And I miss you in the June gloom, too It was the fourth of July You and I were, you and I were fire, fire, fireworks I said I'd never miss you But I guess you never know May the bridges I have burned light my way back home On the fourth of July

I Can Change by Brandon Flowers

I’m really enjoying some of his new tracks, this has to be one of my favorites from him. 

Lyrics: 

When your time runs out And you're looking for a place to land I'll step from the shadow Into the palm of your hand When you're out of luck I'll be what you're looking for Even if it's not who I am When you're out of luck I'll be what you're looking for Even if it's not who I am I can change I can change for you I can change I can change for you I can bend I can break I can shift I can shape Blaze a trail through the driving rain Girl, I can change for you I can change for you When your time runs out And you don't know where to stand I'll step from the shadow I'm at your command [Spoken:] And when you're looking for a change... ...I'll be what you're looking for Even if it's not who I am I can change I can change for you I can change I can change for you I can bend I can break I can shift I can shape Blaze a trail through the driving rain Girl, I can change for you I can slip I can slide I can run I can hide Blaze a trail through the driving rain Girl, I can change for you I'll be what you're looking for I'll be what you're looking for I can change I can change for you I'll be what you're looking for I can change I can change for you I can change I can change I can bend I can break I can shift I can shape Blaze a trail through the driving rain I can slip I can slide I can run I can hide Blaze a trail through the driving rain Girl, I can change for you I can change for you I can change I'll be what you're looking for

Lyrics: 

Town cryer, village flyer Got a skull and crossbones on his chest And I can't resist, when he looks like this All his other girls, face on magazines Big blue eyes, oh I don't know what it means No, what does he want from me? We're hanging in the bars Running after cars to get home Wishing on the stars, wonder what you are I just don't know, he's beautiful Maybe he shined a little more than me No, it's too much, burn my sun Up in flames we go, you fire breather Ash and dust on my door Smoke rise, trying to survive inside your arms Fire breather breathing the fire into Fire breather, I'm trying to survive inside your arms Flame thrower at the show Make my heart melt in the middle of the room No I can't stay away Now I'm begging you to stay, oh Sitting through the days I'm wasting away till the weekends Running on the green, through the sticks of the suburbs I learnt, maybe you shined a little more than me No, it's too much, burn my sun Up in flames we go, you fire breather Ash and dust on my door Smoke rise, trying to survive inside your arms Fire breather breathing the fire into Fire breather Fire breather breathing the fire into No, it's too much, burn my sun Up in flames we go, you fire breather Ash and dust on my door Smoke rise, trying to survive inside your arms

Take Shelter by Years & Years (featuring one Emily Browning)

My new favorite song this Summer.

Lyrics:

I'll wait until you have to go, I'll make it so you never ever know How much I have messed it up! We run around like we don't care, It's gonna leave its mark somewhere, Do you want to show me something new? (You go down, reached my top anyway You go down, reached my top anyway) Just tell me what I have to do, To keep myself apart from you All your colors start to burn I know I want it far too much, Then I thought that wouldn't be enough All this talk is bruising you Take shelter, aaah Take the pressure, aah Do what you want tonight, It's alright If you want to get used Then get used! Take shelter, aaah Take the pressure, aah Do what you want tonight, It's alright If you want to get used Then get used! I don't really wanna stop myself Nobody's gonna tell me I need help, Are you coming over soon? I meet you at the darkest time You hold me, and I have to shut my eyes I'm shy. Can I be what you like? (You go down, reached my top anyway You go down, reached my top anyway) Just tell me what I have to do, To keep myself apart from you All your colors start to burn And take shelter, aaah Take the pressure, aaah Do what you want tonight, It's alright If you want to get used Then get used! Take shelter, aaah Take the pressure, aah Do what you want tonight, It's alright If you want to get used Then get used! I don't really need this pressure to go If you wanna find love, If you wanna find something more I'll be the one to run for you I don't really need this pressure to go If you wanna find love, If you wanna find something more I'll be the one to run for you! Take shelter, Take the pressure, Do what you want tonight, It's alright If you want to get used Then get used! Take shelter, aaah Take the pressure, aaah Do what you want tonight, It's alright If you want to get used!

Lead vocalist Olly Alexander explained the meaning behind the track: “The song is about a relationship, how I felt manipulated by somebody but sort of liked it.” - http://www.hungertv.com/feature/years-years-take-shelter-2/

You Want by Porcelain Black 

Lyrics:

You wanna show me here You wanna show me there You wanna run me down Into a perfect circle Seams will stretch And then my bed will burst And when I'm back to you I'll have a story to tell

Words are worthless When you're laying in my bed, oh

Tell me when I'm dead Is it sleeping on the words that you said? You're better off dead Is it creeping all the words that I said? Cause you want me and you like me and I'm Tell me when I'm dead Is it sleeping on the words that you said? Cause you want me and you like me dead

You wanna tear me up You wanna stretch me out And what you lost I found And now I'm not giving it back

Words are worthless When you're laying in my bed, oh

Tell me when I'm dead Is it sleeping on the words that you said? You're better off dead Is it creeping all the words that I said? Cause you want me and you like me and I'm Tell me when I'm dead Is it sleeping on the words that you said? Cause you want me and you like me dead

I love you But I'll never change

Tell me when I'm dead Is it sleeping on the words that you said? You're better off dead Is it creeping all the words that I said? Cause you want me and you like me and I'm Tell me when I'm dead Is it sleeping on all the words that you said Cause you want me and you like me and I'm 

Cause you want me and you like me and I'm

Cause you want me and you like me and I'm Cause you want me and you like me and I'm Cause you want me and you like me and I'm dead

Hold Tight by Madonna off the Rebel Heart album 

Lyrics:

A million miles later We walked through the valley of the darkest night We made it through the fire We're scarred and we're bruised, but our hearts will guide us Together I know our love's gonna last forever We're gonna be alright Tonight We'll live with no limits We'll dance in the middle of the freezing rain With you and I in it Survive the eye of a hurricane Together We're gonna make this better We're gonna be alright tonight Hold tight As long as you're by my side Hold tight Everything's gonna be alright Only love, only love tonight Lights off, we're burning so bright Hold tight Everything's gonna be alright Everything's gonna... Everything's gonna... Everything's gonna... A million miles later We walked through the valley of the darkest night We made it through the fire We're scarred and we're bruised, but our hearts will guide us Together I know our love's gonna last forever We're gonna be alright Tonight Hold tight As long as you're by my side Hold tight Everything's gonna be alright Only love, only love tonight Lights off, we're burning so bright Hold tight Everything's gonna be alright Everything's gonna... Everything's gonna... Everything's gonna... I don't want to breathe Air that you're not breathing I don't want to hear If your heart's not beating If you hurt then I Want to be the one that's bleeding Want to be the one that's bleeding Hold tight Everything's gonna be alright Everything's gonna... Everything's gonna... Only love, only love tonight Lights off, we're burning so bright Everything's gonna... Everything's gonna...

Running Circles by Kita Klane

I heard you found your fix

and I heard you found her quick

You say it's meant to be

but when boredom comes around

I know you'll be calling me

Running circles again

Runnin' circles again

on the wrong track playback

you can run around again

I heard you keep her blonde

just to show you're moving on

you deserve everything you get

cause a simple quiet blonde

kinda pales next to my brunette

Running circles again

runnin' circles again

on the wrong track playback

you can run around again

Love like an echo I don't think you let go

no, you don't

love like an echo I don't think you let go

no, you won't

replace me, come chase me

you always get what you want

replace me, come chase me

I'm an original thought

Running circles again

runnin' circles again

on the wrong track playback

you can run around again

you can run around again

Heal Yourself by Virgil 

Featured in:  Buffy The Vampire Slayer Season 5 episode 7 - Fool For Your Love.

(Still is one of my favorite shows to this day.)

Lyrics:

Though he never had a reason to leave them But he made them look bad, made them look bad Every second has a season, he tells them But he made them look bad, made them look bad

Heal yourself Heal yourself

The other one he solves their problems of costume But he made them look bad, made them look bad They’ve the mind to hide the blood that make their lines But he made them look bad, made them look bad

Heal yourself Heal yourself

If you really love me You’d find me

Though he never had a reason to leave them But he made them look bad, made them look bad Every second has a season, he tells them But he made them look bad, made them look bad

Heal Yourself

Closer by Kings of Leon (Off the Only By the Night album)

Something about this song gives me chills, every time,  and has me hitting the replay button. Try listening to this when its night and quiet within the house or even with rainymoods on. 

Fun Fact: According to the band's website, this song is about a lovesick vampire.

http://www.songfacts.com/detail.php?id=12984

Lyrics: 

Stranded in this spooky town, Stoplights are swaying and the phone lines are down Floor is crackling cold, She took my heart, I think she took my soul With the moon I run, Far from the carnage of the fiery sun Driven by the strangle of vein Showin' no mercy I do it again Open up your eyes You keep on crying, baby I'll bleed you dry Skies are blinking at me I see a storm bubbling up from the sea And it's coming closer And it's coming closer   You shimmy-shook my boat, Leavin' me stranded all in love on my own Do you think of me? Where am I now, baby where do I sleep? Feels so good but I'm old 2000 years of chasing takin' its toll And it's coming closer 

And it's coming closer

And it's coming closer

And it's coming closer

Savages by Mariana & The Diamonds off her Froot album. 

(My new favorite album that makes me think of Summer for some reason.)

Lyrics:

Murder lives forever And so does war It's survival of the fittest Rich against the poor At the end of the day It's a human trait Hidden deep down inside of our DNA One man can build a bomb Another run a race To save somebody's life And have it blow up in his face I'm not the only one who Finds it hard to understand I'm not afraid of God I am afraid of Man Is it running in our blood Is it running in our veins Is it running in our genes Is it in our DNA Humans aren't gonna behave As we think we always should Yeah, we can be bad as we can be good Underneath it all, we're just savages Hidden behind shirts, ties and marriages How could we expect anything at all We're just animals, still learning how to crawl We live, we die We steal, we kill, we lie Just like animals But with far less grace We laugh, we cry Like babies in the night Forever running wild In the human race Another day, another tale of rape Another ticking bomb to bury deep and detonate I'm not the only one who finds it hard to understand I'm not afraid of God I'm afraid of Man You can see it on the news You can watch it on TV You can read it on your phone You can say it's troubling Humans aren't gonna behave As we think we always should Yeah, we can be bad as we can be good Underneath it all, we're just savages Hidden behind shirts, ties and marriages How could we expect anything at all We're just animals, still learning how to crawl Underneath it all, we're just savages Hidden behind shirts, ties and marriages Truth is in us all, cradle to the grave We're just animals still learning to behave All the hate coming out from a generation Who got everything, and nothing guided by temptation Were we born to abuse, shoot a gun and run Or has something deep inside of us come undone? Is it a human trait, or is it learned behavior Are you killing for yourself, or killing for your savior? Underneath it all, we’re just savages Hidden behind shirts, ties and marriages How could we expect anything at all? We’re just animals still learning how to crawl Underneath it all, we’re just savages Hidden behind shirts, ties & marriages Truth is in us all, cradle to the grave We’re just animals still learning to behave
