SIDE A: AMYSIDE B: ELEVEN. WHEN I GROW UP | THE MATILDA CAST
When I grow up,
I will be brave enough to fight the creatures
That you have to fight beneath the bed
Each night to be a grown up.
When I grow up...
Just because you find that life's not fair, it
Doesn't mean that you just have to grin and bear it.
If you always take it on the chin and wear it, nothing will change.
Just because I find myself in this story,
It doesn't mean that everything is written for me.
If I think the ending is fixed already,
I might as well be saying I think that it's OK,
And that's not right!
.LOVE OF AN ORCHESTRA | NOAH AND THE WHALE
If you gotta run, run from hope
I know I'll never be lonely
I've got songs in my blood
I'm carrying all the love of an orchestra
. A MILLION YEARS | CHARLENE KAYE
A million years she'd been awake
A million years she prayed
For one familiar soul to help her navigate her way
She stood agog at the spray of stars
And thought aloud each day:
I've been here so long
Holding on, but
Somehow I know
I can't be on this planet alone
And one waits
One waits for me, one waits
One waits for me, one waits
One will wait for me
And time's the only lonely curtain in between
. LIFE IN TECHNICOLOUR II | COLDPLAY
Time came a-creepin'
Oh and time's a loaded gun
Every road is a ray of light
It goes o-o-on
Time only can lead you on
Still it's such a beautiful night
Oh love don't let me go
Won't you take me where the streetlights glow
I could hear it coming
Like a serenade of sound
Now my feet won't touch the ground
Gravity release me,
And dont ever hold me down
Now my feet won't touch the ground.
. LIFE IN TECHNICOLOR | COLDPLAY
{instrumental}
. SWIMMING | PEARL & THE BEARD
You know they say, they always say
That things will get better
If you believe in love, believe in hope
Believe in the way that you feel
But my trouble is, my troubles aren’t real.
They’re real enough, they’re in as much
As yes they are happening
But their burden bears upon the soul
Their weightless boring a hole
That’s deep enough to dive
So let the rain come down
And fill a swimming pool
Until the sun come out
And we can go swimming. . LITTLE VICTORIES | OH, ATOMS
Tell me something, tell me all you know
We've got days with nowhere else to go.
Fill our pockets with leaves
From the sycamore trees and so
Through the garden back gates and the high rise estates we'll go
Tell me something, tell me all you know.
Take me where the tangled flowers grow.
At the back of your mind,
You can see into mine you know.
And the stars they can shine,
Like they do all the time for show.
You've got something over me,
And as far as I can see,
You and me,
Little victories.
. STRAWBERRY SWING | COLDPLAY
I remember
We were walking up to strawberry swing
I can't wait until the morning
Wouldn't wanna change a thing
People moving all the time
Inside a perfectly straight line
Don't you wanna curve away?
When it's such…
It's such a perfect day
. FAKE EMPIRE | THE NATIONAL
Turn the light out say goodnight, no thinking for a little while
Let's not try to figure out everything at once
It's hard to keep track of you falling through the sky
We're half-awake in a fake empire
. HEART | STARS
Time can take its toll on the best of us
Look at you you're growing old so young
Traffic lights blink at you in the evening
You tilt your head and turn it to the setting sun
You disembark the latest flight from paradise
You almost turn your ankle on the snow
You fall back into where you started
Make up words to songs you used to know
So...
. THE PACT | VILLAGERS
Do what you did yesterday, go on repeating
'cos my heart's only on fire when you are the teacher
You take the torch and I, follow the leader
You'd be my master and I'll be your fever
You told me your past was taken by thieves
Since then you've been running in search of reliefs
You don't know when it's coming, I don't know either
You'd be my master and I'll be your fever.
. YOUR HAND IN MINE (STRING VERSION) | EXPLOSIONS IN THE SKY
{instrumental}. NORTHERN SKIES | I AM KLOOT
Above there are no stars tonight just northern skies
Reflected light upon your face
People think stars rule our lives,
Some people they think otherwise
They can be replaced.
Where did you go on that big black night?
Did you take the coast road back through your life?
See the sand, the moon, the stars that shine the light
And say, well, they'll do all right for me?
. TERRIFIED | ANNA TERNHEIM
No one I’d rather be with than you
We never say the word, but our eyes always do
My head explodes and my mind’s a mess
And I’m dying to move like young boys do
No one I’d rather be with than you
Away with the bothers, the saddest of news
Sober or not, high or down below myself
You know the days when nothing flows
You see me, like no one
Saw me before
This part terrifies me so
. LITTLE CUP | THAO & MIRAH
I chose the strangest little cup
To drink you from and stir you up
And you were beautiful it's true
And all I ever wanted was
to be good to you
And when you see me cry
You ask me, but I think that
You already know why
I'm staring up at the sky
And you said you understood,
But promises are not that good
In this improper marriage
Love and justice found miscarriage
At the only embassy
with an office for the damaged
. NITESKY (FT. JOHN LAMONICA) | ROBOT KOCH
No-one knows, what it's like.
You and me, you and I.
Underneath, the night sky.
You and me, you and I.
I get lost, all the time.
They learn fast, never mind.
You come to, I collide.
In the dark, by my side.
.THE PHARAOHS | NEKO CASE
Wondered the halls of the nighttime
My body burned, my legs ached
But you never came to bed
You just left me there awake
You kept me wanting wanting wanting
Like the wanting in the movies and the hymns
I want the pharaohs, but there's only men
. YOU WERE A KINDNESS | THE NATIONAL
You were a kindness when I was a stranger
But I wouldn't ask for what I didn't need
Everything's weird and we're always in danger
Why would you shatter somebody like me
It doesn't work that way
Wanting not to want you won't make it so
It doesn't work that way
Don't leave me here alone
. WHEN I GROW UP (FEVER RAY COVER) | FIRST AID KIT
When I grow up, I want to be a forester
Run through the moss on high heels
That's what I'll do, throwing out a boomerang
Waiting for it to come back to me
. BEYOND MY HAND | AN EXPLORER
{instrumental}
. COMMES DES ENFANTS | COEUR DE PIRATE
(translation:)
So you see, as everything gets mixed up
From your heart to your lips, I become a headache
Your laugh screams that I should let you go
Before losing grip and giving up
'cause I would never ask that much of you
You already treat me like a big child
And we have nothing left to lose
Except our lives, which we have set aside
And he still loves me, and I love you a bit more
But he still loves me, and I love you a bit mor
. REAPPEAR | SCHOOL OF SEVEN BELLS
And when you find you’ve been estranged from your own heart,
And love was just a way to hide.
And all the pain you thought you’d lost,
You found again, in someone else…
You know it’s time to reappear
You know it’s time to reappear
Into your life
. THE SHORE | BASIA BULAT
There's no one who will take me by that shore
Close to the smoke, far from the fire of your harbor
But if I'm awake this time, this time I'll know
All over these eyes a storm is rolling over
Running over
Running over
You can take away the divine my dear
And comb your hair
And I won't mind at all
Even though the thoughts behind
I came just to remind you I love you so
I love you so
. WHILE WE HAVE THE SUN | MIRAH
So sorry about all the sorrow in your life you'll know
It's true that all the ones you love will someday have to go
And every time you say goodbye you'll hear the trumpets blow
A serenade to the soul, all surrounded by the glow
If you feel all broken 'cause I left you there too soon
Just know that it's not up to you to make the flowers wilt or bloom
And if you think you're lonely then just listen for the tune
Of all the stars I left for you in the chest of the moon
. THE ARRIVAL OF BIRDS | THE CINEMATIC ORCHESTRA
instrumental
.SIGNS (SAYCET REMIX) | BLOC PARTY
I see signs now all the time
That you're not dead you're sleeping
I believe in anything
That brings you back home to me
