RYAN ADAMS - "Dear Candy"

I was never near
just a shadow on your walls
I was never here at all.

Dear Candy...

I was never yours.
You were never mine.
I was never near at all.

Dear Candy...

This was all a fantasy of yours.
This was just a dream you had
and I was never here.
I was never here.

You were never mine.
I was never yours.

Whoah, Candy.
Oh, Candy.

Do you see me in your dreams?
Do you whisper my name?
Do you hear when my static rings in your ears?
Candy

I was never yours.
You were never mine.
I was never near at all.

Dear Candy...

This was all a fantasy of yours.
This was just a dream you had
and I was never here.
I was never here.
I was never here at all.
Oh, Candy

FRIGHTENED RABBIT - "Swim Until You Can't See Land"

I salute at the threshold of the North Sea of my mind
And I nod to the boredom that drove me here to face the tide
And I swim, I swim, oh swim

Dip a toe in the ocean, oh how it hardens and it numbs
The rest of me is a version of man built to collapse in crumbs
And if I hadn't come now to the coast to disappear
I may have died in a landslide of rocks and hopes and fears

So I swim until you can't see land
Swim until you can't see land
Swim until you can't see land
Are you a man? Are you a bag of sand?

Swim until you can't see land
Swim until you can't see land
Swim until you can't see land
Are you a man? Are you a bag of sand?

Up to my knees now
Do I wade? Do I dive?
The sea has seen my like before, though it's my first and perhaps last time
Let's call me a baptist, call this a drowning of the past
She is there on the shoreline throwing stones at my back

So I swim until you can't see land
Swim until you can't see land
Swim until you can't see land
Are you a man? Are you a bag of sand?

Swim until you can't see land
Swim until you can't see land
Swim until you can't see land
Are you a man? Are you a bag of sand?

And the water is taller than me
And the land is a marker line
All I have is a body adrift in water, salt and sky

So I swim until you can't see land
Swim until you can't see land
Swim until you can't see land
Are you a man? Are you a bag of sand?

Swim until you can't see land
Swim until you can't see land
Swim until you can't see land
Are you a man? Are you a bag of sand?

Swim until you can't see land
Swim until you can't see land
Swim until you can't see land
Are you a man? Are you a bag of sand?

Are you a man? Are you a bag of sand?
Are you a man? Are you a bag of sand?
Are you a man? Are you a bag of sand?
Are you a man? Are you a bag of sand?

Are you a man? Are you a bag of sand?
Are you a man? Are you a bag of sand?
Are you a man? Are you a bag of sand?
Are you a man? Are you a bag of sand?

Sunlight does not make me paranoid.

ELEFANT - "Sunlight Makes Me Paranoid"

The sunlight's making me feel paranoid
I look outside and see the world at war
The people walk to work like they're alone
I sit in silence staring at the phone

[Chorus]

And it helps me breathe, And it helps me see

I cover up my eyes to block the light
I cover up my eyes and try to fight, the fall

[Chorus]

And it helps, When I come down, And it helps

The sunlight's making me feel paranoid
I look outside and see the world at war
The people laugh and play like they're alone
They're watching us while we sleep in our homes
I never, I never meant to shut you out
All I know and all I need is you
I never, I never meant to cause alarm
All I know and all I need and all I got is gonna bleed

[Chorus]

It helps, when I come down, It helps, when I come down

It helps me breathe, When I come down

Sensational sunset to kick of a splendid weekend.

THE SUPREMES - "Sunset"

Sunset, sunset
It's sunset, it's sunset

You went and left happy
You're all alone
You turned and walked away
About this time of day
It was always sunset

Sunset
I didn't want you to see me cry
So I turned my head
To hide the tears in my eyes
I turned when evening shadows fall
That's when I miss you most of all

And oh, it's sunset
Oh, sunset

Ajde and I are very concerned about this fallen oak tree branch stretching the width of the yard. Time to develop some lumberjack skills.

PENNYWISE -"We Are The Fallen"

We are the fallen, the last lonely souls
We were mistaken but now we all know
We struggled with fear, we fought through the hate,
And we take back our lives as we incinerate
All hope is gone, it's lost in the lies
As another day of darkness fills our lives

We live for tomorrow, we live for today
We are the warriors of sorrow, the profits of pain
And the message that we send will cause a people to rise
To tear down their walls and open their minds
Don’t blame the world and don’t blame yourself,
Blame all the greedy in their quest for their wealth
Open your minds and hear with your heart
The worlds turned upside down… let's start!

Our minds have been freed from the chains of yesterday,
Their voices “immune” they have nothing left to say
We exist in this moment, with no ties to the past
While we take back whats ours, what we already had
We laugh out loud, as their screams turn to cries
As truth sets in and terror fills their eyes

We live for tomorrow, we live for today
We are the warriors of sorrow, the profits of pain
And the message that we send will cause a people to rise
To tear down their walls and open their minds
Don’t blame the world and don’t blame yourself,
Blame all the greedy in their quest for their wealth
Open your minds and hear with your heart
The worlds turned upside down… let's start!

Let's start today

We're gonna carry on, it's lasted far too long
Our voices loud as we step into a brand new way
Into the future now, it's time we had our say
We're never going back, tomorrow starts today

Forevermore, we live another day
Forevermore, we're searching for a way,
We're never going back into the unknown
The opposition will be broken down
The time has come!

We live for tomorrow, we live for today
We are the warriors of sorrow, the profits of pain
And the message that we send will cause a people to rise
To tear down their walls and open their minds

We will watch it as it all falls down,
We will watch it as it tumbles to the ground
To the ground

Let's start today
Let's start today

ALKALINE TRIO - "My Little Needle"

I'll come down to get you high.
Or maybe sing you a lullaby.
Sing you to sleep, a sleep you'll never wake from.
Sing you to coma so to speak.
And when I fall down, I'll fall apart.
Trade in my bike for a shopping cart.
And beg change from a world that needs some, like I need someone.

So where are you my little needle?
The stack's been burned away, but I'm so inebriated
That I cannot see three feet in front of me.
Between the moon and you, lunacy is setting in.

Lately I've been feeling dead inside,
Like my guts have dried up and died.
But every night I water them back to life,
Yeah every night I water them back to life.
And when I fall down, I'll fall apart.
Trade in my bike for a shopping cart.
And beg change from a world that needs some.
I'm tired of sleeping alone.

So where are you my little needle?
The stack's been burned away, but I'm so inebriated
That I cannot see three feet in front of me.

DISCOUNT - "Pocket Bomb"

thought of you yesterday, think it's illegal. but i'm running free otherwise, free as a bird. there's no breaking point, no barbed wire army waiting patiently. i sit in a million pieces. who planted the bomb in my coat pocket? spread out, and we move around in the hissing green garden of steam. and yes, i am entirely radioactive you know. the ground melts under my feet. who planted the bomb in my coat pocket? you planted the bomb in my coat pocket. and now we'll both explode.
