today;'s songs quotes
It is absoltely pointless of course, since the lyrics tell one next to nothing about a song, but still. I do it for meself at least as much as not for me. Thus I am listening to songs and copy-pasting some qoutes from them, below. It goes without saying, that these songs are some of my current favourites.
You murder tomorrow by killing today
I'll plough my own furrow, I'll go my own way.
(The Divine Comedy)
-
Thirty years he spent wanderin'
A devil's child with dove wings
Oh He went to prison and now the country he set foot in
Oh how he loved prison
He loved, ( He was )
Prison...
Antony And The Johnsons (at cocorosie's album Noah'Ark)
-
I need my privacy
I lead a secret life
(Black Box Recorder)
-
Every time we don't say
What we wanna say
we're dying
(Yoko Ono)
-
I'm holding on
'cause you're my revolver
and I dreamed of ending
and flying away
(Isobel Campbell)
-
Remain for some time
Down here below
Allowing the doubt to feed upon me
(Anja Garbarek)
-
I wouldn’t want you to want
To be wanted by me
I wouldn’t want you to worry
U be drowned within my sea
I only wanted to be wonderful
And wonderful is true
And truth I only really wanted
To be wanted by you
(Damien Rice)
-
Friday left me fumblin' with the blues
And it's hard to win when you always lose
Because the nightspots spend your spirit
Beat your head against the wall
Two dead ends and you've still got to choose
(Tom Waits)
-
Hard to thrill
Nothing really moves me anymore
Hard to thrill
Nothing really moves me anymore
There is nothing you can show me
That I haven't seen before
I've got time to kill
Keeping to myself inside this room
Time to kill
Keeping to myself inside this room
(Eric Clapton & J.J.Cale
)
-
Morning lights don't scratch my eyes
Just let me wash up on the shore
I used to have the strangest dreams
But they don't come here anymore
(Just Jack)
-
It's such a strain
To find the strength within
And such a drain to fight and always win
And knowing every moment
That what I feel is true
The drears of knowing that I'll make it through
(Happy Rhodes)
-
Wash away these blues, now into the ocean, the current takes over
Words already been spokin', tales already been told
Hearts already been broken, wounds already been healed
Do you wanna be loved, do you wanna be loved for real
(Everlast)
-
Well, that is probably more than enough by now.
("you are at least as lost as me" - Brazzaville)
You murder tomorrow by killing today
I'll plough my own furrow, I'll go my own way.
