Excerpts from Evil by Interpol

 

Leave some shards under the belly
Lay some grease inside my hand
It's a sentimental jury
And the makings of a good plan

You've come to love me lightly
Yeah you come to hold me tight
Is this motion ever lasting
Or just shutters pass through the night?

Rosemary, heaven restores you in life

I spent a life span with no cell mate
The long way back
Sandy, why can't we look the other way?

You're weightless, semi-erotic
You need someone to take you there
Sandy, why can't we look the other way?

Why can't we just play the other game?
Why can't we just look the other way?

Dina Bonnevie



Bakit ba ganyan, ang ibig ko’y

lagi kang pagmasdan

Umula’t umaraw ay hindi pagsasawaan

ang iyong katangian

Damdamin ko’y ibang-iba,

kapag kapiling ka, sinta.



Ewan ko kung bakit ba ganyan

Damdamin ay di maintindihan

Kailangan ang pag-ibig mo

Dahil sa ako’y nagmamahal sa ‘yo

Magmula nang kita ay makilala

Interlude

Timi Yuro

*Time is like a dream
And now for a time you are mine
Let's hold fast to the dream
That tastes and sparkles like wine

Who knows if it's real
Or just something we're both dreaming of
What seems like an interlude now
Could be the beginning of love
Loving you is a world that's strange
So much more than my heart can hold
Loving you makes the whole world change
Loving you I could not grow old
No, nobody knows when love will end
So till then, sweet friend

I found her diary underneath a tree
And started reading about me
The words began to stick and tears to flow
Her meaning now was clear to see

The love she'd waited for
Was someone else not me
Wouldn't you know it?
She wouldn't show it

And as I go through my life
I will wish for her his wife
All the sweet things she can find
All the sweet things they can find

"Dream"

Priscilla Ahn

I was a little girl
Alone in my little world
Who dreamed of a little home for me.
I played pretend between the trees,
And fed my houseguests bark and leaves,
And laughed in my pretty bed of green.

I had a dream
That I could fly
From the highest swing.
I had a dream.

Long walks in the dark
Through woods grown behind the park,
I asked God who I'm supposed to be.
The stars smiled down on me,
God answered in silent reverie.
I said a prayer and fell asleep.

I had a dream
That I could fly
From the highest tree.
I had a dream.

Now I'm old and feeling grey.
I don't know what's left to say
About this life I'm willing to leave.
I lived it full and I lived it well,
There's many tales I've lived to tell.
I'm ready now,
I'm ready now,
I'm ready now
To fly from the highest wing.

I had a dream.

Needles - System of a Down

 

I cannot disguise,
all the stomach pains
and the walking of the cranes
when you, do come out
and you whisper up to me
in your life of tragedy
But I cannot grow
till you eat the last of me
oh when will I be free
and you, a parasite
just find another host
just another fool to roast
cause you
my tapeworm tells me what to do
you
my tapeworm tells me where to go

Chantal Kreviazuk "Feels Like Home"

 

Somethin' in your eyes, makes me wanna lose myself

Makes me wanna lose myself, in your arms

There's somethin' in your voice, makes my heart beat fast

Hope this feeling lasts, the rest of my life

 

If you knew how lonely my life has been

And how long I've been so alone

And if you knew how I wanted someone to come along

And change my life the way you've done

 

It feels like home to me, it feels like home to me

It feels like I'm all the way back where I come from

It feels like home to me, it feels like home to me

It feels like I'm all the way back where I belong

 

A window breaks, down a long, dark street

And a siren wails in the night

But I'm alright, 'cause I have you here with me

And I can almost see, through the dark there is light

 

Well, if you knew how much this moment means to me

And how long I've waited for your touch

And if you knew how happy you are making me

I never thought that I'd love anyone so much

Broken Vessels

 

 

All these pieces
Broken and scattered
In mercy gathered
Mended and whole
Empty handed
But not forsaken
I've been set free
I've been set free

CHORUS
Amazing grace
How sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me
I once was lost
But now I'm found
Was blind but now I see

Oh I can see You now
Oh I can see the love in Your eyes
Laying Yourself down
Raising up the broken to life

VERSE
You take our failure
You take our weakness
You set Your treasure
In jars of clay
So take this heart Lord
I'll be your vessel
The world to see
Your life in me

"faith is expensive to taste,
and time is borrowed loose change
that’s already been spent.

maybe the soul is the tone of voice
that unearthed the words that we needed…

maybe the soul is a suitcase that holds the backup plan –
a collection of keys and the patience we need
to start again.

maybe it’s the thresholds that swallow us whole
as we learn to let go,
in spite of the dirt on our clothes."

Terrified - Katharine McPhee

 

You, by the light
Is the greatest find
In a world full of wrong
You're the thing that's right

Finally made it through the lonely
To the other side

 

You said it again, my heart's in motion
Every word feels like a shooting star
I'm at the edge of my emotions
Watching the shadows burning in the dark

And I'm in love
And I'm terrified
For the first time and the last time
In my only life

 

And this could be good
It's already better than that
And nothing's worse
Than knowing you're holding back

I could be all that you needed
If you let me try

 

You said it again, my heart's in motion
Every word feels like a shooting star
I'm at the edge of my emotions
Watching the shadows burning in the dark

And I'm in love
And I'm terrified
For the first time and the last time
In my only life

 

I only said it 'cause I mean it
I only mean it 'cause it's true
So don't you doubt what I've been dreaming
'Cause it fills me up and holds me close whenever I'm without you

 

You said it again, my heart's in motion
Every word feels like a shooting star
I'm at the edge of my emotions
Watching the shadows burning in the dark

And I'm in love
And I'm terrified
For the first time and the last time
In my only life...

IF IT'S LOVE

While everybody else is getting out of bed, I'm usually getting in it
I'm not in it to win it and there's a thousand ways you can skin it
My feet have been on the floor, flat like an idol singer
Remember winger, I digress, I confess you are the best thing in my life

But I'm afraid when I hear stories 'bout a husband and wife
There's no happy endings, no Henry Lee, but you are the greatest thing about me

If it's love
And we decide that it's forever, no one else could do it better
If it's love
And we're two birds of a feather then the rest is just whatever

And if I'm addicted to loving you and you're addicted to my love too
We can be them two birds of a feather that flock together
Love, love, got to have something to keep us together
Love, love, that's enough for me

Took a loan on a house I own, can't be a queen bee without a bee-throne
I wanna buy you everything except cologne 'cause it's poison
We can travel to Spain where the rain falls mainly on the plain side and sing
'Cause it is we can laugh, we can sing, have ten kids and give them everything

Hold our cell phones up in the air and just be glad that we made it here alive
On a spinning ball in the middle of space, I love you from your toes to your face

If it's love
And we decide that it's forever, no one else could do it better
If it's love
And we're two birds of a feather then the rest is just whatever

And if I'm addicted to loving you and you're addicted to my love too
We can be them two birds of a feather that flock together
Love, love, got to have something to keep us together
Love, love, that's enough for me

You can move in, I won't ask where you've been
'Cause everybody has a past
When we're older we'll do it all over
Again

When everybody else is getting out of bed, I'm usually getting in it
I'm not in it to win it, I'm in it for you

If it's love
And we're two birds of a feather, then the rest is just whatever
Then the rest is just whatever
If it's love and we decide that it's forever, no one else could do it better

And if I'm addicted to loving you and you're addicted to my love too
We can be them two birds of a feather that flock together
Love, love, got to have something to keep us together
Love, love, got to have something to keep us together

Love, love, that's enough for me

This is more akin to what is happening today in our country. And remind us that new battles are being fought and never really over.

"Don't Dream It's Over"

There is freedom within
there is freedom without
Try to catch a deluge in a paper cup
There's a battle ahead
many battles are lost
But you'll never see the end of the road
While you're traveling with me

[CHORUS]
Hey now, hey now
Don't dream it's over
Hey now, hey now
When the world comes in
They come, they come
To build a wall between us
We know they won't win

 

Now I'm towing my car
there's a hole in the roof
my possessions are causing me suspicion but there's no proof
in the paper today
tales of war and of waste
but you turn right over to the T.V. page

 

[CHORUS]
Hey now, hey now
Don't dream it's over
Hey now, hey now
When the world comes in
They come, they come
To build a wall between us
We know they won't win

 

Now I'm walking again
to the beat of a drum
And I'm counting the steps to the door of your heart
Only shadows ahead
barely clearing the roof
Get to know the feeling of liberation and relief

 

Hey now, Hey now
Don't dream it's over
Hey now, Hey now
When the world comes in
They come, they come
To build a wall between us
You know they won't win

 

Don't let them win
Hey now, Hey now

Hey now, Hey now

Hey now, Hey now
Don't let them win

 

They come, They come
Don't let them win

Hey now, Hey now (yeah)

Hey now, Hey now

Paint it Black (Rolling Stones)

 

I see a red door and I want it painted black
No colors anymore, I want them to turn black
I see the girls walk by dressed in their summer clothes
I have to turn my head until my darkness goes

I see a line of cars and they're all painted black
With flowers and my love, both never to come back
I see people turn their heads and quickly look away
Like a newborn baby it just happens ev'ryday

I look inside myself and see my heart is black
I see my red door and I want it painted black
Maybe then I'll fade away and not have to face the facts
It's not easy facing up when your whole world is black

No more will my green sea go turn a deeper blue
I could not foresee this thing happening to you
If I look hard enough into the setting sun
My love will laugh with me before the morning comes

I see a red door and I want it painted black
No colors anymore I want them to turn black
I see the girls walk by dressed in their summer clothes
I have to turn my head until my darkness goes

I want to see your face painted black, black as night, black as coal
I want to see the sun blotted out from the sky.
I want to see it painted, painted, painted, painted black, yea

"If I didn't love you"

 

So good

When it's good I wanna spend my whole life lovin' you

But I'm tired

And you don't know how close I've come to leaving you

You try my patience

And you race me to the wire

It takes every ounce of my will and desire

If I didn't love you

If I didn't love you like crazy

If I didn't love you baby

As much as I do

I'd just walk out the door

I couldn't take it anymore

I wouldn't put up with what you put me through

If I didn't love you

"Dark Side"

Kelly Clarkson

Oh oh oh, there's a place that I know
It's not pretty there and few have ever gone
If I show it to you now
Will it make you run away?

Or will you stay
Even if it hurts
Even if I try to push you out
Will you return?
And remind me who I really am
Please remind me who I really am

Everybody's got a dark side
Do you love me?
Can you love mine?
Nobody's a picture perfect
But we're worth it
You know that we're worth it
Will you love me?
Even with my dark side?

Like a diamond
From black dust
It's hard to know
What can become
If you give up
So don't give up on me
Please remind me who I really am

Everybody's got a dark side
Do you love me?
Can you love mine?
Nobody's a picture perfect
But we're worth it
You know that we're worth it
Will you love me?
Even with my dark side?

Don't run away
Don't run away
Just tell me that you will stay
Promise me you will stay
Don't run away
Don't run away
Just promise me you will stay
Promise me you will stay

Will you love me? ohh

Everybody's got a dark side
Do you love me?
Can you love mine?
Nobody's a picture perfect
But we're worth it
You know that we're worth it
Will you love me?
Even with my dark side?

Don't run away
Don't run away

Don't run away
Promise you'll stay

"ORESTES"

A Perfect Circle

 

 

Metaphor for a missing moment

Pull me into your perfect circle

One womb, one shape, one resolve

Liberate this will to release us all

 

You gotta cut away, clear away

Snip away and sever this

Umbilical residue

Keeping me from killing you

 

And from pulling you down with me in here

I can almost hear you scream

 

One more medicated peaceful moment

Give me one more medicated peaceful moment

And I don't wanna feel this overwhelming hostility

I don't wanna feel this overwhelming hostility

 

You gotta cut away, clear away

Snip away and sever this

Umbilical residue

Gotta cut away, clear away

Snip away and sever this

Umbilical residue

Keeping me from killing you

 

Snip away and sever this

Keeping me from killing you

Goodbye

 

I can see the pain living in your eyes

And I know how hard you try

You deserve to have so much more

I can feel your heart and I sympathize

And I'll never criticize all you've ever meant to my life

 

I don't want to let you down

I don't want to lead you on

I don't want to hold you back

From where you might belong

 

You would never ask me why

My heart is so disguised

I just can't live a lie anymore

I would rather hurt myself

Than to ever make you cry

There's nothing left to say, but goodbye
