Monthly Mix :: December 2012 :: The Sun is Rising Without You
December
Wake up, you've got a lot of things to do
Wake up, the sun is rising without you
FAIRWEATHER FRIEND - VANESSA CARLTON
Sing for the aftershow
Those candy colored lips
Your age is showing and you've gotta harder for it
It's always easier with freshmen
They're not as clever, it should bring you to life
And you didn't mean to do it
So I don't have to believe it
If you didn't really mean it
The magical thinking gets us by
CUPS - ANNA KENDRICK
I've got my ticket for the long way 'round
The one with the prettiest of views
It's got mountains, it's got rivers
It's got sights to give you shivers
But it sure would be prettier with you
When I'm gone, When I'm gone
You're gonna miss me when I'm gone
You're gonna miss me by my walk
You're gonna miss me by my talk, oh
You're gonna miss me when I'm gone
SILENT WAR - A FINE FRENZY
Jealousy, I suspect jealousy
Something is changing me
Real slow from the inside out
It seems you mean too much to me
Too much for comfort, see
The cause is the cure now
We fought a silent war
In the hardware store and the air was thick as paint
Though I carried it on, I knew that I was wrong
But I fight when I'm afraid
With guns I come a-blazing
A lesser man would break free
"I'm sorry" is all I meant to say
TO BUILD A HOME - THE CINEMATIC ORCHESTRA FT. PATRICK WILSON
By the cracks of the skin I climbed to the top
I climbed the tree to see the world
When the gusts came around to blow me down
I held on as tightly as you held onto me
I held on as tightly as you held onto me
'Cause, I built a home
For you, for me
Until it disappeared
From me, from you
And now, it's time to leave and turn to dust
MUD - JINJA SAFARI
I heard the sound of a trumpet in the air
Calling me from the town fair
But it disappeared
Shoes hit the ground
And I ran into the town
But I left with the circus
And I left a mess
BLACKBERRY STONE - LAURA MARLING
And I am lower now and lower still,
And you did always say that one day I would suffer,
Did always say that people get their pay.
You did always say that I was going places,
And that you wouldn't have it any other way.
But I couldn't turn my back on the world for what I like, wouldn't let me.
But I couldn't turn my back on the world for what I like, I needed.
TOGETHER WE'LL RING IN THE NEW YEAR - MOTION CITY SOUNDTRACK
I am often interrupted
or completely ignored.
But most of all I'm bored.
I'm trying to find out
if my words have any meaning.
Lackluster and full of contempt
when it always ends the same.
Why won't she listen to me?
QUIET AS A MOUSE - MARGOT & THE NUCLEAR SO AND SO'S
When I woke my body was dying all over the floor
I felt apathy and hate infesting my bones
Wake up you've got a lot of things to do
Wake up the sun is rising without you
CARS AND PIXIES (HAPPY NEW YEAR) - THE ROCKET SUMMER
The coin, you call it
If heads we're going back to the heartland
If tails it's fallen... I think I could care less where it lands
I'm exhausted and overwrought
I'm a message in a bottle tossing, turning here out in the sea
And I've been swimming so long, come on, and I'm ready for you now to read me
AMAZING BECAUSE IT IS - THE ALMOST
I was so scared of everything You put in front of me
I've been arching every part of me
Just to see, see
Why You need me to be
The boy You need me to be
Amazing grace
How sweet the sound
That saves a wretch like me
I once was lost
And now I'm found
Was blind but now I see
I just wanna see
FOR LEAH AND CHLOE - LOST IN THE TREES
And through this life
I've learned to love
What I've become
I've learned to love
What I've become
What I've become
I WILL REMAIN - MATTHEW AND THE ATLAS
What of all those pretty tales
The ones that took me to this door
Is it comfort in the salvers way?
Is it comfort upon this wooden floor?
Tell you, is it a failure to forget the ones who once held it?
I tried to remember but my mind is no longer clean.
THEY CAN'T IF YOU DON'T LET THEM - A FINE FRENZY
Setting sun, you know you ought to run
There's a wolf here among the sheep
But marching along to the spirit catcher's song
You remain in a dreamless sleep
Desperate eyes let the counterfeit suffice
Hoping high they will be kind to you
HOPELESS WANDERER - MUMFORD & SONS
So when your hope's on fire
But you know your desire
Don't hold a glass over the flame
Don't let your heart grow cold
I will call you by name
I will share your road
But hold me fast, Hold me fast
'Cause I'm a hopeless wanderer
And I will learn, I will learn
To love the skies I'm under
SALLY - JOHNNY FLYNN
Someone saw a local boy
Crawl along the shore
Well must be someone's son
They thought
They should have thought some more
Sally saw the boy come near
Right beneath the sun
Breathing hard and cockle proud
And Sally's heart was won
Not a boy she knew at first
Not a face she'd seen
All whispered through her ready lips
I'll be the best I've been
KNOCKOUT - PERMA
What's your favorite way to spoon?
(Any way's the perfect way with you)
Will you let me in your room?
(Kiss me quick my dad'll be home soon)
Should I keep or lose the beard?
(You could go bald and not look weird)
these lyrics make me laugh. sorry?
