OUR FIRST N/J FAN MIX ]
The National | Wasp Nest
Your eyes are broken bottles
And I'm afraid to ask
And all your wrath and cutting beauty
You're posion in the pretty glass
You're a wasp nest
Stateless | Bloodstream
The spaces in between
Two minds and all the places they have been
I think I might’ve inhale you
I could feel you behind my eyes
You've gotten into my bloodstream
I could feel you floating in me
Tracy Chapman | In The Dark
Let my eyes see fear make desire
Keep those who long apart
Forbid the kiss
And leave us innocent
Of the things some do in the dark...
Damien Rice | I Remember
I remember it well
Taxied out of a storm
To watch you perform
And my ships were sailing
Tracy Chapman | Happy
I think you're the one
Everyone agrees
But some can see the face of love
And turn away in disbelief
Birdy (Bon Iver cover) | Skinny Love
And now all your love is wasted
And who the hell was I?
I'm breaking at the bridges
And at the end of all your lines
The Colorful Quiet | Birds and Bees
The time is not
The time is not right
The time is not right for us
'Cause you're the same
You're the same thing
You're the same thing you always will be
Ray Lamontagne | Like Rock & Roll and Radio
All these white lies hanging like flies on the wall
Hard wired, road tired
Counting curtain calls and waiting
Waiting for the axe to fall
Are you still in love with me
Like the way you used to be or is it changing?
Does it deepen over time, like the river that is winding through the Canyon?
Noah and the Whale | Our Window
It's four in the morning
Things are getting heavy
And we both know that its over, but we're both not ready
And you're talking like a stranger, so I don't know what to do
And I'm calloused and I'm cruel to everyone but you...
The Mountain Goats | Get Lonely
And i will go downtown, stand in the shadows of the buildings
And button up my coat, trying to stay strong, spirit willing.
And i will come back home, maybe call some friends,
Maybe paint some pictures,
It all depends.
And i will get lonely and gasp for air.
And look up at the high windows, and see your face up there.
Elliott Smith | I Better Be Quiet Now
Wish I knew what you were doing
And why you want to do it this way
So I can't go the distance
I got a long way to go
I'm getting further away
City and Colour | Little Hell
What if I can't be
All that you need me to be?
We've got a good thing going
We have some promises to keep.
But my diction, it can be such a detriment.
Please believe in this my dear, I am more than penitent
Horse Feathers | In Our Blood
There are things you tend to say when you're alone.
There are tones you tend to take when you're at home.
Let me be that thorn, thistle, or key.
Let me prove you'll unlock
Just for me.
The National | Slow Show
I wanna hurry home to you
Put on a slow, dumb show for you
And crack you up
So you can put a blue ribbon on my brain
God, I’m very, very frightening
( I’ll overdo it )
You know I dreamed about you
For twenty-nine years before I saw you
You know I dreamed about you
I missed you
For twenty-nine years
James Blunt | Shine On
Are you calling for
Our last dance?
I see it in your eyes.
Same old moves for
A new romance.
I could use the same old lines.
But I'll sing...
So shine on, just shine on
With your smile just as bright as the sun
Cause they're all just slaves to the Gods they've made
But you and I, just shone
Benjamin Francis Leftwich | See You Soon
What we lost
Is equal to the cost
Of my skin on yours
And say you want it back
If you get time
Come back and be mine
If you pass by
I will see you in the sky
I’ll see you soon
You know ♥ //
