I KEEP COMING BACK HERE WHERE EVERYTHING SLIPPED, a jimmy mcgill and jimmy mcgill/kim wexler mix





01. short change hero - the heavy

and what matters ain't the "who's baddest" but
the ones who stop you fallin' from your ladder
and I suffer, but I ain't gonna cut you 'cause
this ain't no place for no hero
this ain't no place for no better man

every time I close my eyes, I think about you inside
and your mother, givin' up on askin' why
why you lie, and you cheat, and you try to make a fool out of she

02. yet again - grizzly bear

yet again, we're the only ones
no surprise, this is often how it's done
lately it's about all I can take
I will move and mend and mold this break

take it all in stride / speak don't confide / we barely had a case
it's done before we try / stop and end by night
a desert in your face

take score, even playing fields the game
I know when all's said we're the same

03. all the rage back home - interpol

when she went, hey love come over / my head abounds, oh, the feeling
she said, you outta refine / be paid, you're gonna see my face in lights / my faith won't lie
she said, you don't read minds / be patient, you won't see me shaking / you have been mistaken

I keep falling, maybe half the time / maybe half the time
but it's all the rage back home
it's all the rage back home

04. humiliation - the national

if I die this instant / taken from a distance
they would probably list it down / among other things round town

all the LA women / fall asleep while swimmin'
I got paid to fish them out, and then one day I lost the job
and I cried a little / I got fried a little
then she laid her eyes on mine / she said "babe, you're better off"

tunnel vision lights my way
as the free-fall advances, I'm the moron who dances

under the withering white skies of humiliation

05. ambition - thao

you know how I love you and I always will
you know how I need you but you can't stay still

no hope for the hopeless, it's a bad idea
help is for the helpless, help me / I'm still here

how do I get free / when no one wants it more than me?
all my life I tried / to get let inside
all I asked of me, damn near everything
I won’t break anymore / I’ve been broken before

06. vaporise - broken bells

a crude device; a veil on our eyes
a simple plan, we'd be different from the rest / and never resign to a typical life
where'd it go, all that precious time? / did we even try to stem the tide?

why should we waste it on / buying into the same old lies?
the longer we wait around, the faster the years go by

it's not too late / to feel a little more alive
make our escape / before we start to vaporize

07. lonely hunter - foals

It's a new time / so why must I wait in line for what's mine?
it's a new day / why must it be the same?
it's 3AM, I got held up / tried to call, I'm on my way

will I see you? I got lost in foreign lands / tried to get back, oh I hoped you'd understand
just remember, that love is the gun in your hand

in the deep blue, I'm a hundred miles away / treading water, it's too deep for me to stand
in the deep blue, see the whitecaps from the shore / but I can't swim, and it keeps me wanting more

08. dashboard - modest mouse

well it would've been, could've been worse than you would ever know
oh we talked about nothing, which was more than I wanted you to know

well we scheme and we scheme but we always blow it
we've yet to crash, but we still might as well enjoy it
standing at a light switch to each east and west horizon / every dawn you're surprising
and in the evening one's consoling / saying, "see it wasn't quite as bad as"

after you had proved my point wrong
It wasn't like I'd let it go / I just wanted to catch the last laugh of this show

09. trouble - tv on the radio

oh, here comes trouble
put your helment on, we'll be heading for a fall
yeah, the whole thing's gonna blow

and the devil's got my number / it's long overdue, he'll come looking soon
all this borrowed time, it's been running out

oh, I've changed my number / wore disguises and went undercover just to
just to hide away from you

oh, my ghost came a-calling / making noises 'bout a promise I had broken
oh, I'm gonna be lonely soon

10. the rifle's spiral - the shins

dead lungs command it / you pour your life down the rifle's spiral
so long to this wretched form / them grey eyes on the subway
listen now, we won't tell anyone / but you're gonna tell the world

you're not invisible, now / you just don't exist
primitive mural on the wall, to fortify your grim resolve
amid the glitz of a shopping mall / another grain of indigent salt for the sea

11. straight shot - devotchka

I can draw a straight line, through my mind / right back to the good times
before all the paperwork got signed

it's like a straight shot / through the backyards and the vacant lots
through the varied chambers of my heart / to the part of town that even you seem to have forgot

ours was the tale that never would end / doors were gonna open, and rules were gonna bend
now it doesn't matter who they send / can't hold a candle to you / my fair-weather best friend

it's where my true love still resides

12. everything I had - sun june

got an apartment / we're not getting any better / everything I had, I want it back
gotta get used to it / yeah I find that there's no use talking to you
saw the line in the movement / wasn't mine yet

tongue-tied lightning, all that might have been
throwing 5 in a cab / you and me in the back / you and me

13. slipped - the national

I'm in the city you hated / my eyes are red
I'm in the crush and I hate it / my eyes are fallen
I'm having trouble inside my skin / I try to keep my skeletons in
I'll be a friend and a fuck-up, and everything

I don't want you to grieve, but I want you to sympathise
I can't blame you for losing your mind for a little while, so did I
I don't want you to change, but I want to recognise

I keep coming back here where everything slipped / but I will not spill my guts out

14. true - the airborne toxic event

it sure seems clear to me / as far as I can see
how the highest life brought the lowest out of me / eventually

because the truth is always wrong / and it's hard to face the dawn
when your days get short your nights get so damn long / so you just play along
it's true you were my best friend / we needed each other in the end
and they say it's "dust to dust" / you don't want to face it but you must

I won't ever let go and that's one thing you can trust
I'll see you in the dust / I'll meet you in the dust
