Damien Rice - Volcano
Don't hold yourself like that
You'll hurt your knees
I kissed your mouth and back
But that's all I need
Don't build your world around volcanoes melt you down

What I am to you is not real
What I am to you you do not need
What I am to you is not what you mean to me
You give me miles and miles of mountains
And I'll ask for the sea

Don't throw yourself like that
In front of me
I kissed your mouth your back
Is that all you need?
Don't drag my love around volcanoes melt me down

What I am to you is not real
What I am to you you do not need
What I am to you is not what you mean to me
You give me miles and miles of mountains
And I'll ask for what I give to you
Is just what i'm going through
This is nothing new
No no just another phase of finding what I really need
Is what makes me bleed
And like a new disease she's still too young to treat
Volcanoes melt me down
She's still too young
I kissed your mouth
You do not need me

Bright Eyes - Lover I Don't Have to Love
I picked you out
Of a crowd and talked to you.
Said I liked your shoes,
You said, "Thanks, Can I follow you?"

So it's up the stairs,
And out of view. No prying eyes.
I poured some wine.
I asked your name;
You asked the time.

Now it's two o'clock.
The club is closed,
We are up the block.
Your hands are on me,
Pressing hard against your jeans,
Your tongue in my mouth,
Trying to keep the words from coming out,
You didn't care to know
Who else may have been you before.

I want a lover I don't have to love,
I want a girl who's too sad to give a fuck.
Where's the kid with the chemicals?
I thought he said to meet him here,
But I'm not sure.
I've got the money
If you've got the time.
You said, "It feels good."
I said "I'll give it a try."

Then my mind went dark,
We both forgot where your car was parked.
Let's just take the train.
I'll meet up with the band in the morning

Bad actors, with bad habits...
Some sad singers, they just play tragic.
And the phone is ringing,
And the van is leaving
Let's just keep touching,
Let's just keep...keep singing

I want a lover I don't have to love,
I want a boy who's so drunk he doesn't talk.
Where's the kid with the chemicals?
I got a hunger and I can't seem to get full.
I need some meaning I can memorize.
The kind I have always seems to slip my mind.

But you, but you...

You write such pretty words,
But life's no storybook.
Love's an excuse to get hurt.
And to hurt.
Do you like to hurt?
I do, I do.
Then hurt me,
Then hurt me,
Then hurt me...

Jack Johnson - Bubble Toes
It's as simple as something that nobody knows that her eyes are as big
as her bubbly toes
on the feet of a queen of the hearts of the cards and her feet are all
covered with tar balls and scars
It's as common as something that nobody knows that her beauty will
follow wherever she goes
up the hill in the back of her house in the would she love me forever,
I know she could

I remember when you and me mmm how we used to be just good friends
Wouldn't give me none
But all I wanted was some
She's got a whole lot of reasons
She cant think of a single one
That can justify leaving
and he got none but he thinks he got so many problems
Man he got, too much time to waste

His dreams are like commercials
But her dreams are picture perfect and
Our dreams are so related though they're often underestimated

It's as simple as something that nobody knows that
Her eyes are as big as her bubbly toes
On the feet of the queen of the hearts of the cards
And her feet are infested with tar balls and

La da da da da da

Well I was eating lunch at the D. L. G.
When this little girl came and she sat next to me
I never seen nobody move the way she did
Well she did and she does and she'll do it again

When you move like a jellyfish
Rhythm don't mean nothing
You go with the flow
You don't stop
Move like a jellyfish
Rhythm is nothing
You go with the flow
You don't stop

It's as common as something that nobody knows it
Her beauty will follow wherever she goes
Up the hill in the back of her house in the wood
She'll love me forever, I know she

La da da da da da

If you would only listen
You might just realize what you're missing
You're missing me
If you would only listen
You might just realize what you're missing
You're missing me

It's as simple as something that nobody knows that
Her eyes are as big as her bubbly toes
On the feet of the queen of the hearts of the cards
And her feet are infested with tar balls and

La da da da da da

Bright Eyes - One Foot in Front of the Other
If you walk away, I walk away.
First tell me which road you will take.
I dont wanna risk our paths crossing someday,
so you walk that way,
I'll walk this way.
The future hangs over our heads,
and it moves with each current event.
Until it falls all around us like a cold steady rain,
just stay in when its looking this way.
The moons laying low in the sky,
forcing everything metal to shine,
and the sidewalk holds diamonds like a jewelry store case,
they argue "walk this way",
"no, walk this way."
And lauras asleep in my bed,
as Im leaving, she wakes up and says,
"I dreamed you were carried away by the crest of a wave.
baby dont go away....
come here."
There's kids playin guns in the street,
and ones pointing his tree branch at me.
So, I put my hands up I say "enough is enough.
If you walk away, I'll walk away."
and then he shot me dead!
I found a liquid cure,
for my landlock blues.
It will pass away like a slow parade,
it's leavin but I dont know how soon.
The world's got me dizzy again,
you think after 22 years id be used to the spin.
And it only feels worse when I stay in one place,
so, I'm always pacing around or walking away.
I'm drinking the ink from my pen,
and I'm balancing history books up on my head.
And it all boils down to one quotable phrase...
"If you love something, give it away."
A good woman will pick you apart,
a box full of suggestions for a possible heart...
and you may be offended,
and you may be afraid,
but don't walk away..
Don't walk away.
We made love on the living room floor,
with the noise in the background from a televised war.
And in that deafening pleasure, I thought I heard someone say,
"If we walk away, they'll walk away."
but greed is a bottomless pit,
and all freedoms a joke,
we're just taking a piss.
And the whole world must watch the sad comic display.
If you're still free start running away.
(cause we're coming for ya!)
I've grown tired of holding this pose,
I feel more like a stranger each time I come home.
So, I'm making a deal with the devils of fame,
saying "let me walk away...please."
You'll be free child once you have died,
from the shackles of language, and measurable time.
And then we can trade places,
play musical graves...
till they walk away, walk away, walk away....
So, I'm up at dawn,
puttin on my shoes...
I just wanna make a clean escape, I'm leaving but I dont know where to.
I'm leaving but I don't know where to.

AND...one more because I'm a cheater...and four is hard..

Blue October - Amazing
How am I supposed to breathe?
I try to relax. I touch your still frame
So I can watch you closer
And study the ways I believe I belong to you
I scratch at your waist line... your doll hair
I dig up the thought of how your eyes glow
So I make you my religion, my collision, an escape goat
So have I found your secret weak spot, baby?

(Chorus) Can you pretend I'm amazing?
I can pretend I'm amazing...
Instead of what we both know
I cut to the punch line baby
Can you pretend I'm amazing
Instead of what we both know

Now our history is for sale
And for that I apoligize
You see you're my only know how
The study of when I believe I belonged to you
You see I've made you into something more delicious,
My sweet ghost
So have I found your secret weak spot, baby?

(Chorus)
