Nitin Sawhney - Falling Angels

It's a time for grown-up boys
To make a mess of pretty things
To lose yourself and find
A peace in your good-bye
I lost my faith in you
To distant dreams of true
Nothing here redeems me
No angels to release me

Unchain my falling angels
Unchain my falling angels
To chain me

The shadows burry me
In rusty memories
Hopes for inside
My angels call goodbyes
You lost that photo-album smile
To memories fadded, fadded, fading...
Shall we fade child?

Unchain my falling angels
Unchain my falling angels
To chain me

Unchain my falling angels
Unchain my falling angels
To chain me

Frank Sinatra - One For My Baby

It's quarter ta' 3, theres no one in the place
-cept' you and me.
So set em' up Joe, I got a little story
you ought to know.
We're drinkin' my friend, to the end, of a
brief episode.

Make it One For My Baby, and One More For the Road.

I got the routine, put another nickel,
in the machine.
Feelin' so bad, can't ya' make the music,
easy and sad.
I could tell you alot, but you've gotta' be,
true to your code...

Make it One For My Baby, and One More For the Road.

You'd never know it, but buddy i'm a kind of poet, and i've
got a lot of things, i'd like to say.
And when i'm gloomy, won't you listen to me,
till' its talked away?

Well, thats how it goes, and Joe I know you're gettin'
anxious to close.
And thanks for the cheer, I hope you didn't mind,
my bend in your ear.
But this torch that i've found, its gotta be drowned,
or it soon might explode.

So Make it One for My Baby, and one more for the Road.

The long, that long, it's long...

Toploader - Achillles Heel

Goodbye to the sky

I know I can't fly but I feel love do you know

How I feel?

You are my achilles heel

Hello to below

I feel love flow like a river flow you and I

Standing still

You are my achilles heel



Feeling free yeah what about me?

Well you gotta give it up coz I feel love do you know

How I feel ?

You are my achilles heel

Goodbye to the sky

I know I can't fly but I feel love do you know

How I feel ?

You are my achilles heel



For there's a child in your eyes and the child never dies

To keep the dream alive

With the aid of second sight

I can push with all my might

To make a statue in the sky

Of my achilles heel



Small fry don't know why

Gotta get high just to love life

You are my highs and lows from my head to my toes

I said hey la

Will I go far?

Will I go far - cos I love life

Do you know how I feel?

You are my achilles heel

I said Oh no no

Will I go slow?

Now will I go slow?

When the feeling flows



For there's a child in your eyes and the child never dies

To keep the dream alive

With the aid of second sight

I can push with all my might

To make a statue in the sky

Of my achilles heel



Well you're feeling free

So what about me?

I said hello and goodbye

But I don't know why

Well while we're small fry

On the line

With my achilles heel

Achilles heel

Five Iron Frenzy - My Evil Plan to Save the World

I have an evil plan to save the world for every man,

And I think it's better than the way it's being run.

Oh the groundwork's laid,

No Don't be afraid,

I'm sure that I can fix it,

When I figure out the physics.



My evil plan to save the world,

Just you wait 'till it's unfurled,

It'll go down in history.

It's prophetic,

No, it's not pathetic.

I can't believe I made it up myself.



I have an evil plan,

To save the world you understand,

The exemplary feat, you'd think I'd have to cheat.

I'd make Voltaire proud,

Deep and furrow browed.

Uncanny and so clever, it's "Our Newest Plan Ever!"



Got tired of whining,

A grander scheme with silver lining,

For every boy and girl.

We can't be responsible,

For all that's wrong with this world.



Starving children in pain,

You can't believe in that God.

The world's not spinning your way,

Does every dog still have his day?

The Cure - Just like Heaven

'Show me, show me, show me

How you do that trick

The one that makes me scream,' she said

'The one that makes me laugh,' she said

And threw her arms around my neck

'Show me how you do it

And I promise you, I promise that

I'll run away with you

I'll run away with you...'



Spinning on that dizzy edge

I kissed her face and kissed her head

And dreamed of all the different ways

I had to make her glow

'Why are you so far away?' she said

'Why won't you ever know that I'm in love with you,

That I'm in love with you?'



You

Soft and only

You

Lost and lonely

You

Strange as angels

Dancing in the deepest oceans

Twisting in the water, you're just like a dream

Just like a dream



Daylight licked me into shape

I must have been asleep for days

And moving lips to breathe her name

I opened up my eyes

I found myself alone

Alone

Alone above a raging sea

That stole the only girl I loved

And drowned her deep inside of me



You

Soft and only

You

Lost and lonely

You

Just like heaven

Lauryn Hill (with Bob Marley) - Turn your lights down low

[Bob Marley] [Lauryn]
[Uh] Turn your lights down low
And pull your window curtain
Oh let the moon come shining in
Into our life again
Saying ooh, it's been a long, long time
[Long, long time]
I got this message for you girl
But it seems I was never on time
Did I wanna get through to you girl?
On time, on time [word]
I want to give you some love
I want to give you some good, good loving
[Uh, uh, right, uh]
Oh I, oh I, oh I
Yeah I want to give you some good, good loving [uh]

[Lauryn]
Turn your lights down low
[Word, word, uh, uh]
Never ever try to resist, oh no
[Na, na, na, na]
Let your love come shining in
[Na, na, na, na]
Into our lives again
[Na, na, na, na]
And ooh, I love you
[I love you, I love you]
And I want you to know right now
[Know right now]
Ooh I love you
[Uh-uh, yeah, uh]
And I want you to know right now [uh]
That I, that I
I wanna give you some love [uh, yeah]
I wanna give you some good, good loving
Oh I, oh I, oh I
I wanna give you some good, good loving [yeah uh-uh]

[Lauryn]
Loving you is a like a song I replay
Every three minutes and thirty seconds of every day [uh, uh]
And every chorus was written for us to recite [right]
Every beautiful melody of devotion every night
It's potion like this ocean that might carry me
In a wave of emotion to ask you to marry me
And every word, every second, and every third
Expresses the happiness more clearly than ever heard [uh]
And when I play them, every chord is a poem
Telling the Lord how grateful I am cause I know him [what? word]
The harmonies possess a sensation similar to your caress [uh]
If you asking then I'm telling you it's yes
Stand in love, take my hand in love, God bless [right]

[Lauryn & Bob]
I want to give you some good, good loving
I want to give you some love
I want to give you some good, good loving
Oh I, oh I, oh I
I wanna give you some good, good loving

[Lauryn] [Bob]
Good, good, good loving
[I wanna give you some good loving]

PS:The first time I heard this, a couple of months ago, it got me hooked. Not by the lyrics exclusively but by the song as a whole. The beat, mood, melody, lyrics, all of them together made me post this, because I feel it's worth to share. I hope you like it:).

Hoobastank - Just One

I wanna live, I wanna leave
I wanna open up and breathe
I wanna go, I wanna be
I wanna feel it constantly
Gotta show, gotta say
I've got a feeling that won't go away
I've gotta know if they got away
My opportunities

Just one chance is all I ever wanted
Just one time I'd like to win the game
From now on I'll take the chance if I can have it
Just one, just one

I need to think, I need to feed
I need to see if I still bleed
I need a place, I need a time
Cause I need to step outside that line
Gonna give, gonna take
I'm gonna scream till I am awake
I'm gonna push, I'm gonna pull, open up the door

Just one chance is all I ever wanted
Just one time I'd like to win the game
From now on I'll take the chance if I can have it
Just one, just one

And if I knew when the door was open, I'd go through
I would go on through
And I can say, when I do I'll never be the same
Never be the same

Just one chance is all I ever wanted
Just one time I'd like to win the game
From now on I'll take the chance if I can have it
Just one, just one

(Just one) I'll take the chance if I can have it
(Just one) I'll take the chance if I can have it
(Just one) Yes, I'll take the chance if I can have it
Just one, just one

Incubus - The Warmth

I'd like to close my eyes and go numb,

But there's a cold wind coming from,

The top of the highest high rise today.

Its not a breeze 'cuz it blows hard,

Yes and it wants me to discard,

The humanity I know,

watch the warmth blow away...



So don't let the world bring you down,

Not everyone here is that fucked up and cold.

Remember why you came and while you're alive,

Experience the warmth before you grow old.



So do you think I should adhere,

To that pressing new frontier,

And leave in my wake, a trail of fear,

Or should I hold my head up high,

And throw a wrench in spokes by,

Leaving the air behind me clear?



So don't let the world bring you down,

Not everyone here is that fucked up and cold.

Remember why you came and while you're alive,

Experience the warmth before you grow old. 



Before you grow old...

Where did it go ?

Jonh Mayer - No Such Thing

Welcome to the real world, she said to me

Condescendingly

Take a seat, take your life

Plot it out in black and white

Well I never lived the dreams of the prom kings

And the drama queens

I'd like to think the best of me

Is still hiding up my sleeve



They love to tell you

Stay inside the lines

But something's better

On the other side



I wanna run through the halls of my high school

I wanna scream at the

Top of my lungs

I just found out there's no such thing as the real world

Just a lie you've got to rise above



So the good boys and girls take the so called right track

Faded white hats

Grabbing credits and maybe transfers

They read all the books but they can't find the answers

And all of our parents

They're getting older

I wonder if they've wished for anything better

While in their memories

Tiny tragedies



They love to tell you

Stay inside the lines

But something's better

On the other side



I wanna run through the halls of my high school

I wanna scream at the top of my lungs

I just found out there's no such thing as the real world

Just a lie you got to rise above



I am invincible, as long as I'm alive



I wanna run through the halls of my high school

I wanna scream at the

Top of my lungs

I just found out there's no such thing as the real world

Just a lie you've got to rise above

I just can't wait til my 10 year reunion

I'm gonna bust down the double doors

And when I stand on these tables before you

You will know what all this time was for

Jeff Buckley - Last Goodbye

This is our last goodbye

I hate to feel the love between us die

But it's over, just hear this and then I'll go

you gave me more to live for

more than you'll ever know



This is our last embrace

Must I dream and always see your face

Why can't we overcome this wall

Baby, maybe it is just because I didn't know you at all



Kiss me, please kiss me

But kiss me out of desire, baby

And not consolation

You know it makes me so angry 

'Cause I know that in time

I'll only make you cry 

This is our last goodbye



Did you say "No, this can't happen to me"

And did you rush to your phone to call?

Was there a voice unkind in the back of your mind saying

"Maybe ... you didn't know him at all"



Well 

The bells out in the church tower chime

Burning clues into this heart of mine

Thinking so hard on her soft eyes and the memory

Of her sighs that it's over 

It's over

INTRO POST

Every music that you hear means something to you one way or another. Every song has a meaning, every song tells a story.

I started this so I could share with you a bit of myself. Instead of commenting, I decided that my favourite bits of the song will be written like this. It's hard for me to comment on things I really like, so the music will speak for itself most of the times. =)

I'll always provide a link to where you can buy, and please don't forget to read the disclaimer.

Probably some songs will be uploaded, but that is a question to ponder about...

Oleander - Halo

And it's always little things

That to the surface brings

The comfort in the pain

The fear behind the smile

We lose along the way

The things we leave behind

Along the precipice 

Of things we should not climb

And I'm the first in line

There's an anchor around my heart

Dragging me down

Beneath the waves in silence I fall

There's a halo above my head

Spinning me 'round

'Cause I don't know if I'm alive or dead

A dagger in my hand

Bleeding me dry



And it's always little things

That to the surface brings

The space you need to breathe

Before the curtain call

The light that leads the way

Before you hit the wall

The mountain that you climb

Just to take a fall

For blind among the blind



There's an anchor around my heart

Dragging me down

Beneath the waves in silence I fall

There's a halo above my head

Spinning me 'round

'Cause I don't know if I'm alive or dead

There's a dagger in my hand

Bleeding me dry



And all we have to lose is time

And what we lose we leave behind

Stay around and we will shine
