Pascal Obispo - Zinédine

Tant de flashes et de lumières
Pour des héros ordinaires,
De place à des courants d'air
Qui feraient tourner la terre,

Le médiocre fait l'école
Au quart d'heure d'Andy Warhol,
Faut-il jouer à la guerre
Pour devenir un symbole...

Allez Zinédine
Comme quoi les hommes rêves encore,
Allez Zinédine
Comme quoi tout espoir n'est pas mort,

Tant de visages qu'on éclaire
Pour des héros éphémères,
Le tien Place des Étoiles
Brille pour nous ouvrir le bal,

Pour qu'il prenne son envol
Le monde a besoin d'idoles,
Loin des haines qu'on étale
Et des affiches qu'on colle,
Et qu'on décolle

Allez Zinédine
Comme quoi l'amour n'est pas fini,
Allez Zinédine
A quoi peut tenir une vie

Allez Zinédine
Comme quoi les hommes n'ont pas tort
Allez Zinédine
Comme quoi l'amour est le plus fort

Allez Zinédine
Comme quoi rêver nous donne envie
Allez Zinédine
Comme quoi tout espoir est permis

from my favourite album of theirs..

love ain't for keeping

Layin' on my back
In the newly mown grass
Rain is coming down
But I know the clouds will pass
You bring me tea
Say "the babe's a-sleepin'"
Lay down beside me
Love ain't for keeping

Black ash from the foundry
Hangs like a hood
But the air is perfumed
By the burning firewood
The seeds are bursting
The spring is seeping
Lay down beside me
Love ain't for keeping
Lay down beside me
Love ain't for keeping

Lay down beside me
Love ain't for keeping
Lay down my darling
Love ain't for keeping

Hammer & A Stone ~Seven Mary Three


I'm digging through the darkness
Cause I'm a long wall miner
Following the road down
Just so I can sit beside her
I'm a page torn from your novel
Beneath a magnet on your fridge
I'm the stars stuck on your ceiling
So I can watch you while you're sleeping

Would you remember me?
Do you remember me because
I wanted you so bad?
Do you remember me?
Do you remember me because
Of everything we had?

Was like a hammer to a stone
Wrapped like a fender around a tree
The curiosity in you
And all the emptiness in me

Digging through the vices
I don't know where the inside is
So here's my dirty little secret
And I bet you, you can't keep it
I'm a page torn from your novel
A single flower in your lawn
If I'm not everything you wished for
How come you miss me when I'm gone?

Do you remember me
Do you remember me because
I wanted you so bad
Do you remember me
Do you remember me because
Everything we have

Was like a hammer to a stone
Wrapped like a fender around a tree
The curiosity in you
And all the emptiness in me
They say a diamond only whispers
To us when we are alone
It's just forever's little trick
To help a hammer find a stone
To help a hammer find a stone

this perfect thing - honestly

She awakens with a chill by the open window
As the wind breathes it's cold
It hurts to know that what he needs
Is someone she can never be
And it runs from her eyes uncontrolled

"Give it time," she thinks
And hope still lingers in the air
But denial is a fleeting remedy
She squeezes skin with painted fingers
And the bleeding is a cruel reminder
That everything she's suffering is real

This perfect thing called love
Can leave you ripped up broken-hearted
Waiting for the sky to fall
This perfect thing called love
Can make you wish you never started
If you knew you would lose it all

He stands alone but satisfied as the dust clears
And the scars he wears have only made him stronger
For a wasted year he stayed and tried
A thousand times to make it right
But how could he ignore it any longer

"Give it up," he thinks
And wishes she could just move on
But he can't undo this thing he has done
And as she sees him slip away
She looks for ways to kill the pain
Is this what you get when you love someone?

What are you waiting for?
What are you waiting for?
What are you waiting for?
Let it go
Let it go

Rise Above This- SEETHER


Take the light, and darken everything around me
call the clouds and listen closely, I'm lost without you
Call your name every day when i feel so helpless
I'm fallin' down but I'll rise above this, rise above this

Hate the mind, regrets are better left unspoken
For all we know, this void will grow and
Everything's in vain, distressing you though it leaves me open
Feels so right, but I'll end this all before it gets me

Call your name every day, when i feel so helpless
I'm fallin' down, but I'll rise above this, rise above this
Call your name every day, when i seem so helpless
I'm fallin' down, but I'll rise above this, rise above this doubt

I'll mend myself before it gets me
(I'll mend myself before it gets me)
I'll mend myself before it gets me
(I'll mend myself before it gets me)

Call your name every day, when i feel so helpless
I'm fallin' down, but I'll rise above this, rise above this
Call your name every day, when i seem so helpless
I'm fallin' down, but I'll rise above this, rise above this
Forty eight ways to say that I'm feelin' helpless
Fallin' down, fallin down', but I'll rise above this, rise above this

Calexico ~ Black Heart

Spring is frozen
now I'm stuck in low
wrapped with wire,
tapped to the heart

Can't find the poison,
now I got no cure
fangs are stuck inside my skin

payne county line
watching unjust claims
one man's righteousness
is another man's
long haul, sentence carried out
long haul, counting the miles
to the four corners of the world

spring is rusted shut,
faith's coiled and cracked
apparitions worth their weight in gold

scratched in metal,
name erodes away
hands are scarred,
heart is charred
burnt through, and ashen

trip on fence post line
sifting through the remains
one man's close pursuit
is another man's
last chance, make it through the divide
last chance, suffer the weight or get buried by this
black heart, sweeping over the land
black heart, crawling its way
to the four corners of the world

"Let Me Be Myself" ~ 3 Doors Down

I guess i just got lost
Bein' someone else
I tried to kill the pain
Nothin ever helped
I left myself behind
Somewhere along the way
Hopin to come back around
To find myself someday

Lately i'm so tired of waiting for you
To say that it's ok, but tell me
Please, would you one time
Just let me be myself
So i can shine with my own light
Let me be myself
Would you let me be myself

I'll never find my heart
Behind someone else
I'll never see the light of day
Living in this cell
It's time to make my way
Into the world i knew
Take back all of these times
That i gave in to you

Lately i'm so tired of waiting for you
To say that it's ok, but tell me
Please, would you one time
Let me be myself
So i can shine with my own light
And let me be myself
For a while, if you don't mind
Let me be myself
So i can shine with my own light
Let me be myself

That's all i've ever wanted from this world
Is to let me be me

Please would you one time
Let me be myself
So i can shine with my own light
Let me be myself
Please would you one time
Let me be myself
So i can shine with my own light
Let me be myself
For a while, if you don't mind
Let me be myself
So i can shine with my own light
Let me be myself
Would you one time... oooh
Let me be myself
Let me be me

quote:

Rise Above This- SEETHER

just a really damn good song, makes me cry..

Jack Johnson

All at once,
The world can overwhelm me
There's almost nothing that you could tell me
That could ease my mind

Which way will you run
When it's always all around you
And the feelin' lost and found you again
A feelin' that we have no control

Around the sun
Some say it's going to be the new hell
Some say it's still too early to tell
Some say it really ain't no myth at all

We keep asking ourselves
Are we really strong enough?
There's so many things
That we got too proud of
We're too proud of
We're too proud of

I wanna take the preconceived
Out from underneath your feet
We could shake it off
And instead we'll plant some seeds
We'll watch them as they grow
And with each new beat
From your heart the roots grow deeper
The branches, well they reach for what?

Nobody really knows
But underneath it all
There's this heart all alone
What about when it's gone?
It really won't be so long
Sometimes it feels like a heart
Is no place to be singing from at all

There's a world we've never seen
There's still hope between the dreams
The weight of it all could blow away
With a breeze
But if your waiting on the wind
Don't forget to breathe
Because as the darkness gets deeper
We're sinkin' as we reach for love

At least something we can hold
But I'll reach to you
From where time just can't go
What about when it's gone?
It really won't be so long
Sometimes it feels like a heart
Is no place to be singing from at all

Take and take ~ Garfield Mayor

babe, you've been giving in and giving out to me
your river's always filling up my seal
I drink you up and then I take my leave
I'm sorry you must feel I'm nowhere to be seen

but babe, I've been trying to figure out who I'm to be
God I'm aching to be sure what I should keep
I'm sorry you must feel there's nothing in return

when I take and take again until I get my fill
then I throw it all away so you can start over again
it's the avarice in me about the cake and eating it
tear it down and start all over start all over

baby, you've been breathing in blowing out for me
I don't mean to take advantage but you see
I'm only trying to figure out how to exist

when I take and take again until I get my fill
then I throw it all away so you can start over again
it's the avarice in me about the cake and eating it
tear it down and start all over start all over

take and take again until I get my fill
throw it all away start over again
it's the avarice in me about the cake and eating it
tear it down and start all over start all over again

I take and take again until I get my fill
then I throw it all away so you can start over again
it's the selfishness in me but this solitude I need
to tear it down and start all over start all over again

I am Kloot ~ Here for the world

There’s nothing missing

The 59 sound by GASLIGHT ANTHEM


Well, I wonder which song they're gonna play when we go.
I hope it's something quiet and minor and peaceful and slow.
When we float out into the ether, into the Everlasting Arms,
I hope we don't hear Marley's chains we forged in life.
'Cause the chains I been hearing now for most of my life.

Did you hear the '59 Sound coming through on Grandmama's radio?
Did you hear the rattling chains in the hospital walls?
Did you hear the old gospel choir when they came to carry you over?
Did you hear your favorite song one last time?

And I wonder were you scared when the metal hit the glass?
See, I was playing a show down the road
When your spirit left your body.
And they told me on the front lawn.
I'm sorry I couldn't go,
But I still know the song and the words and her name and the reasons.
And I know 'cause we were kids and we used to hang.

[Chorus]

Young boys, young girls, ain't supposed to die on a Saturday night.

[Chorus]

10cc ~ I'm not in love

I'm not in love, so don't forget it
It's just a silly phase I'm going through
And just because I call you up
Don't get me wrong, don't think you've got it made
I'm not in love, no-no
(It's because...)

I like to see you, but then again
That doesn't mean you mean that much to me
So if I call you, don't make a fuss
Don't tell your friends about the two of us
I'm not in love, no-no
(It's because...)

(Be quiet, big boys don't cry)
(Big boys don't cry)
(Big boys don't cry)
(Big boys don't cry)
(Big boys don't cry)
(Big boys don't cry)
(Big boys don't cry)

I keep your picture upon the wall
It hides a nasty stain that's lyin' there
So don't you ask me to give it back
I know you know it doesn't mean that much to me
I'm not in love, no-no
(It's because...)

Ooh, you'll wait a long time for me
Ooh, you'll wait a long time

Ooh, you'll wait a long time for me
Ooh, you'll wait a long time

I'm not in love, so don't forget it
It's just a silly phase I'm going through
And just because I call you up
Don't get me wrong, don't think you've got it made, ooh

I'm not in love, I'm not in love...



Now, thanks for THIS song...

Just like Stella I can't get enough of these guys.

Notion- Kings Of Leon

I got a notion that says it doesn't feel right
Got the answer in your story today
You gave me a sign that didn't feel right no

So don't knock it, Don't knock it
You been here before
So Don't knock it, Don't knock it
You been here before

I just wanted to know if I could go home
Been rambling day after day
Everyone says they don't know

So don't knock it, Don't knock it
You been here before
So Don't knock it, Don't knock it
You been here before

I got a notion that says it doesn't feel right
I just wanted to know if I could go home

So don't knock it, Don't knock it
You been here before
So Don't knock it, Don't knock it
You been here before
