The Cure - The Last Day Of Summer

Nothing I am
Nothing I dream
Nothing is new
Nothing I think or believe in or say
Nothing is true
It used to be so easy
I never even tried
Yeah it used to be so easy...

But the last day of summer
Never felt so cold
The last day of summer
Never felt so old
Never felt so...

All that I have
All that I hold
All that is wrong
All that I feel for or trust in or love
All that is gone

It used to be so easy
I never even tried
Yeah it used to be so easy...

But the last day of summer
Never felt so cold
The last day of summer
Never felt so old
The last day of summer
Never felt so cold

Never felt so...


(tuokaa nenäliinoja, tämä on niin kaunista...)

The Cure - To Wish Impossible Things

remember how it used to be
when the sun would fill the sky
remember how we used to feel
those days would never end
those days would never end

remember how it used to be
when the stars would fill the sky
remember how we used to dream
those nights would never end
those nights would never end

it was the sweetness of your skin
it was the hope of all we might have been
that filled me with the hope to wish
impossible things
to wish impossible things

but now the sun shines cold
and all the sky is grey
the stars are dimmed by clouds and tears
and all i wish
is gone away
all i wish
is gone away...

The Cure - Just like heaven

"Show me how you do that trick
The one that makes me scream" she said
"The one that makes me laugh" she said
And threw her arms around my neck
"Show me how you do it
And I promise you I promise that
I'll run away with you
I'll run away with you"

Spinning on that dizzy edge
I kissed her face and kissed her head
And dreamed of all the different ways I had
To make her glow
"Why are you so far away?" she said
"Why won't you ever know that I'm in love with you
That I'm in love with you"

You
Soft and only
You
Lost and lonely
You
Strange as angels
Dancing in the deepest oceans
Twisting in the water
You're just like a dream

Daylight licked me into shape
I must have been asleep for days
And moving lips to breathe her name
I opened up my eyes
And found myself alone alone
Alone above a raging sea
That stole the only girl I loved
And drowned her deep inside of me

You
Soft and only
You
Lost and lonely
You
Just like heaven

A Perfect Circle - The Hollow

Run desire run this sexual being
Run him like a blade to and through the heart
No conscience one motive to cater to the hollow
Screaming feed me here fill me up again temporarily pacify this hungering
So grow libido throw dominoes of indiscretions down falling all around in cycles circles constantly consuming, conquer and devour
Its time to bring this fire down
Bridle all this indiscretion long enough to edify and permanently fill this hollow
Feed me fill me up again temporarily pacifying
Feed me here fill me up again temporarily pacify this hungering

CMX - Rautalankaa

Jokainen tuntee laulun sen jokainen kuulee sävelen
Poluilta suuren tyhjyyden kun löytää viimein rakkauden
Vartaloas taivuttaa pois tuulen vire pieninkin
Kun sylikkäin me vaellamme huokaileviin laaksoihin

Ei yksinään voi kukaan kantaa koko valon maailmaa
Ei yksinään voi antaa rakkautta jakaa unelmaa
Ei yksinään voi nähdä kuinka toinen liekkiin leimahtaa
Ei yksinään voi sylityksin päättää tähtiin vaeltaa

Välillä eksyy kovettuu kadottaa luotaan totuuden
Kaiho ja uhma sekoittuu humisee kaiut tyhjyyden
Tähtitaivaan alla värjyn tuijotellen kuiluun sen
Häämöttääkö jossain tieto suuremmasta usko en

Tarvitsen suuren rakkauden tarvitsen kasvot ihmisen
Tarvitsen kaipuun totuuteen matkalla jota vielä teen

The Cure - Bloodflowers

"this dream never ends" you said
"this feel never goes
The time will never come to slip away"
"this wave never breaks" you said
"this sun never sets again
These flowers will never fade"
"this world never stops" you said
"this wonder never leaves
The time will never come to say goodbye"
"this tide never turns" you said
"this night never falls again
These flowers will never die"

Never die
Never die
These flowers will never die

"this dream always ends" i said
"this feeling always goes
The time always comes to slip away"
"this wave always breaks" i said
"this sun always sets again
And these flowers will always fade"
"this world always stops" i said
"this wonder always leaves
The time always comes to say goodbye"
"this tide always turns" i said
"this night always falls again
And these flowers will always die"

Always die
Always die
These flowers will always die

Between you and me
It's hard to ever really know
Who to trust
How to think
What to believe
Between me and you
It's hard to ever really know
Who to choose
How to feel
What to do

Never fade
Never die
You give me flowers of love

Always fade
Always die
I let fall flowers of blood


on se the cure vaan ihana!

Why do I feel so sad

Friends we've been for so long
Now true colors are showing
Makes me wanna cry oh yes it does
Cuz I had to say goodbye

By now I should know
That in time things would change
So it shouldn't be so bad
So why do I feel so sad

How can I adjust
To the way that things are going
It's killing me slowly
Oh I just want it to be how it used to be

Cuz I wish that I could stay
But in time things must change
So it shouldn't be so bad
So why do I feel so sad

You cannot hide the way you feel inside I realize
Your actions speak much louder than words
So tell me why oh

By now I should know that
That in time things would change
So it shouldn't be it shouldn't be so bad
So why do I feel so sad

By now I should know
That in time things must change
So it shouldn't be so bad
So why do I feel so sad

By now I should know
That in time things must grow
And I had to leave you behind
So why do I feel so sad
If it couldn't be that bad
Tell me why

By now I should know
That in time things would change
So it shouldn't be so bad
So why do I feel so sad

The Levellers - Elation

Oh there was once a man who had lost his own smile
And he wandered the country mile after mile
Never quite knowing what he wanted to find
For his heart it lay heavy with the weight of his mind

And he looked at the land through the tears in his eyes
For he knew that there were those who would will her to die
And he wept for his mother as he lay at her feet
And he heard a voice singing him softly to sleep

I'll be your queen, I'll be your mother - I'll be your mystical child
Be your best friend, your lover - Your wife for all time
Will there ever be another, in this life of mine
Will there ever be another, like my mystical child

So he climbed a high hill and he looked out to sea
And he heard a voice calling out softly to him
Open your heart boy for it needs to be free
And the next time you're crying come running to me

I'll be your queen, I'll be your mother - I'll be your mystical child
Be your best friend, your lover - Your wife for all time
Will there ever be another, in this life of mine
Will there ever be another, like my mystical child

So he walked through the valleys the trees and the fields
And he came to a river where she waited for him
And they looked at the water of life flowing by
And he heard a voice saying 'you're not alone in the fight'

I'll be your queen, I'll be your mother - I'll be your mystical child
Be your best friend, your lover - Your wife for all time
Will there ever be another, in this life of mine
Will there ever be another, like my mystical child

Nine Inch Nails - Hurt

I hurt myself today
To see if I still feel
I focus on the pain
The only thing that's real
The needle tears a hole
The old familiar sting
Try to kill it all away
But I remember everything

What have I become?
My sweetest friend
Everyone I know
Goes away in the end
You could have it all
My empire of dirt
I will let you down
I will make you hurt

I wear this crown of shit
Upon my liar's chair
Full of broken thoughts
I cannot repair
Beneath the stains of time
The feelings disappear
You are someone else
I am still right here

What have I become?
My sweetest friend
Everyone I know
Goes away in the end

You could have it all
My empire of dirt
I will let you down
I will make you hurt
If I could start again
A million miles away
I would keep myself
I would find a way

laitetaan vielä toinen lauantain kunniaksi:

The Cure - Edge of the Deep Green Sea

every time we do this
i fall for her
wave after wave after wave
it's all for her
i know this can't be wrong i say
(and i'll lie to keep her happy)
as long as i know that you know
that today i belong
right here with you
right here with you...

and so we watch the sun come up
from the edge of the deep green sea
and she listens like
her head's on fire
like she wants to believe in me
so i try
put your hands in the sky
surrender
remember
we'll be here forever
and we'll never say goodbye...

i've never been so
colourfully-see-through-head before
i've never been so
wonderfully-me-you-want-some-more
and all i want is to
keep it like this
you and me alone
a secret kiss
and don't go home
don't go away
don't let this end
please stay
not just for today

never never never never
never let me go she says
hold me like this for a
hundred thousand million days
but suddenly she slows
and looks down at my breaking face
why do you cry? what did i say?
but it's just rain i smile
brushing my tears away...

i wish i could just stop
i know another moment
will break my heart
too many tears
too many times
too many years i've cried over you

how much more can we use it up?
drink it dry?
take this drug?
looking for something forever gone
but something
we will always want?

why why why are you
letting me go? she says
i feel you pulling back
i feel you changing shape...
and just as i'm breaking free
she hangs herself in front of me
slips her dress like a
flag to the floor
and hands in the sky
surrenders it all...

i wish i could just stop
i know another moment
will break my heart
too many tears
too many times
too many years i've cried for you
it's always the same
wake up in the rain
head in pain
hung in shame
a different name
same old game
love in vain
and miles and
miles and
miles and
miles and
miles
away from home again...

Counting Crows - A long December

A long December, and there's reason to believe
Maybe this year will be better than the last
I can't remember the last thing that you said as you were leavin'
Now the days go by so fast
And it's one more day up in the canyon
And it's one more night in Hollywood
If you think that I can be forgiven....I wish you would
The smell of hospitals in winter
And the feeling that it's all a lot of oysters, but no pearls
All at once you look across a crowded room
To see the way that light attaches to a girl
And it's one more day up in the canyon
And it's one more night in Hollywood
If you think you might come to California...I think you should
Drove up to Hillside Manor sometime after two a.m.
And talked a little while about the year
I guess the winter makes you laugh a little slower,
Makes you talk a little lower about the things you could not show her
And it's been a long December, and there's reason to believe
Maybe this year will be better than the last
I can't remember all the times I tried to tell myself
To hold on to these moments as they pass
And it's one more day up in the canyon
And it's one more night in Hollywood
It's been so long since I've seen the ocean..I guess I should.

Françoise Hardy - Je changerais d'avis

la vie n'est pas un seul garçon
un seul visage à aimer
la vie n'est pas une seule passion
pour toujours, allumée

il faut de tout pour faire un coeur
et bien peu, pour le défaire
mais pourtant devant toi, j'ai peur
j'oublie les leçons d'hier

je changerais d'avis
ce qu'il faut penser
au fond je sais, que le l'oublierais

je changerais de vie
si tu le voulais
au fond je sais, que je te suivrais

je changerais d'amis
si tu y tenais
tout mon passé, je le quitterais

si tu m'aimais aussi
je sais que je pourrais tout laisser
et tout recommencer

je changerais d'avis
et je me dirais que jusqu'à toi
je m'étais trompée

je changerais de vie
sans me demander où je m'en vais
si tu m'emmenais

s'il n'y avait qu'une chance
une sur des milliers pour te garder
moi je la prendrais

et tant pis si c'est fou
j'aurais envie de tout avec toi
si tu pouvais m'aimer

This is important. Protect my balls!
I'm badass. So let's fighting

It's okay--we do it all the time!
Hey hey let's go! Lets fight--

The Who - However Much I Booze

I see myself on T.V., I'm a faker, a paper clown
It's clear to all my friends that I habitually lie; I just bring them down
I claim proneness to exaggeration
But the truth lies in my frustration
The children of the night, they all pass me by
Have to drench myself in brandy
In sleep I'll hide
But however much I booze
There ain't no way out
There ain't no way out
I don't care what you say, boy
There ain't no way out

I lose so many nights of sleep worrying about my responsibilities
Are the problems that screw me up really down to him or me
My ego will just confuse me
Some day it's going to up and use me
Dish me out another tailor-made compliment
Tell me about some destiny I can't prevent
And however much I squirm
There ain't no way out
There ain't no way out
I don't care what you say, boy
There ain't no way out

Won't somebody tell me how to get out of this place?!

Then the night comes down like a cell door closing
Suddenly I realize that I'm right now, I'm on the scene
While sitting here all alone with a bottle and my head a-floating
Far away from the phone and the conscience going on at me
And on at me, and I don't care what you say
There ain't no way out
There ain't no way out

Now the walls are all clawed and scratched
Like by some soul insane
In the morning I hungoverly detach myself
I take no blame
I just can't face my failure
I'm nothing but a well fucked sailor
You at home can easily decide what's right
By glancing very briefly at the songs I write
But it don't help me that you know
This ain't no way out
Won't somebody tell me?
I don't care what you say, boy
There ain't no way out

There ain't no way out
There ain't no way out
There ain't no way out

Give me the key, lock it away

There ain't
There ain't
There ain't no way out
There ain't no way out
There ain't no way out

The Pogues - Fairytale of New York

It was Christmas Eve babe
In the drunk tank
An old man said to me, won't see another one
And then he sang a song
The Rare Old Mountain Dew
I turned my face away
And dreamed about you

Got on a lucky one
Came in eighteen to one
I've got a feeling
This year's for me and you
So happy Christmas
I love you baby
I can see a better time
When all our dreams come true

They've got cars big as bars
They've got rivers of gold
But the wind goes right through you
It's no place for the old
When you first took my hand
On a cold Christmas Eve
You promised me
Broadway was waiting for me

You were handsome
You were pretty
Queen of New York City
When the band finished playing
They howled out for more
Sinatra was swinging,
All the drunks they were singing
We kissed on a corner
Then danced through the night

The boys of the NYPD choir
Were singing "Galway Bay"
And the bells were ringing out
For Christmas day

You're a bum
You're a punk
You're an old slut on junk
Lying there almost dead on a drip in that bed
You scumbag, you maggot
You cheap lousy faggot
Happy Christmas your arse
I pray God it's our last

I could have been someone
Well so could anyone
You took my dreams from me
When I first found you
I kept them with me babe
I put them with my own
Can't make it all alone
I've built my dreams around you

Iloista joulua, Kitinä!

Elvis Costello - (What's So Funny 'Bout) Peace, Love And Understanding

As I walk through
This wicked world
Searchin' for light in the darkness of insanity.
I ask myself
Is all hope lost?
Is there only pain and hatred, and misery?

And each time I feel like this inside,
There's one thing I wanna know:
What's so funny 'bout peace love & understanding? Ohhhh
What's so funny 'bout peace love & understanding?

And as I walked on
Through troubled times
My spirit gets so downhearted sometimes
So where are the strong
And who are the trusted?
And where is the harmony?
Sweet harmony.

'Cause each time I feel it slippin' away, just makes me wanna cry.
What's so funny 'bout peace love & understanding? Ohhhh
What's so funny 'bout peace love & understanding?

So where are the strong?
And who are the trusted?
And where is the harmony?
Sweet harmony.

'Cause each time I feel it slippin' away, just makes me wanna cry.
What's so funny 'bout peace love & understanding? Ohhhh
What's so funny 'bout peace love & understanding? Ohhhh
What's so funny 'bout peace love & understanding?

Nils Lofgren - Black Books

One last time from Freddy's joint
we drove out to lover's point
shared our last kiss eye to eye
Spoke of tender times long past
said they weren't meant to last
too many different dreams to satisfy

She wants
new shoulders to cry on
new backseats to lie on
and she always gets her way
She wants to see other guys
get lost in other eyes
baby's in the black books
yes she's in the black books today

I've yet to find a dreary bar
where whispers don't drift from afar
about her wild and wicked ways
The hardest truths don't have a why
often true love will just die
and leave a grief to haunt
the lonely nights and days

She wants
new shoulders to cry on
new backseats to lie on
and she always gets her way
She wants to hurt other guys
put tears in other eyes
baby's in the black books
yes she's in the black books today

She wants to hurt other guys
put tears in other eyes
Baby's in the black books
yes she's in the black books today

Andy Lewis & Paul Weller - Are You Trying To Be Lonely?

You’re the first thought in my mind
But you still don’t treat me right
You’re putting hot knives in my heart
Your cold stabs are tearing me apart

But I’m trying to love you
There’s no one above you
But you make it so hard
All I want to do is kick in my heart

Are you trying to be lonely
Well, it’s working for you
Are you trying to be lonely
What are you trying to prove

Each night I say my prayers
Hoping that you’ll change
Every time I see you out
I catch you there with another man

We could go through this heartache
We can go through this pain
But what good will the torture do you
And what exactly are you trying to gain

Are you trying to be lonely, oh girl
Are you trying to be lonely

And I’m trying to love you
There’s no one above you
But you make it so hard
All I want to do is kick in my heart girl

Are you trying to be lonely
Well, it’s working for you
Are you trying to be lonely
That’s what you wanna, that’s what you wanna do

Are you trying to be lonely
I’m tired of being lonely too
Are you trying to be lonely
What are you trying to prove

Avenged Sevenfold - Almost Easy

I feel insane
Every single time I'm asked to compromise
'Cause I'm afraid and stuck in my ways
And that's the way it stays
So how long did I expect love to outweigh ignorance?
By that look on your face I may have forced the scale to tip

I'm not insane, I'm not insane
I'm not insane, I'm not... not insane

(Mother)
Come back to me it's almost easy
(Said it all)
Come back again it's almost easy

Shame pulses through my heart from the things I've done to you
It's hard to face but the fact remains that this is nothing new
I left you bound and tied with suicidal memories
Selfish beneath the skin but deep inside I'm not insane

I'm not insane, I'm not insane
I'm not insane, I'm not... not insane

(Mother)

Come back to me it's almost easy
(Said it all)
Come back again it's almost easy
(You'll learn your lesson)
Come back to me it's almost easy
(But first you fall)
Come back again it's almost easy

Now that I've lost you it kills me to say
(Hurts to say)
I've tried to hold on as you've slowly slipped away
I'm losing the fight, I've treated you so wrong now let me make it right
(Make it alright)

I'm not insane, I'm not insane
(Ha ha ha ha ha)
I'm not insane, I'm not... Not insane

(Mother)
Come back to me it's almost easy
(Said it all)
Come back again it's almost easy
(You'll learn your lesson)
Come back to me it's almost easy
(But still you fall)
Come back again it's almost easy

The Levellers - Before The End

I left my girl at the top of the stairs,
tears in her eyes, hands in her hair.
Brushed myself down like I don't care,
forced a smile; get out of there.

Now all the casual cruelty
hardly seems so wrong.
As twist the knife how easily forgiven with

it's just one kiss
to build a dream upon.
It's just one kiss
to build our dreams upon.

Elemental force of nature.
I fall into your eyes.
As you rush with a vain to tear, soothe all that I despise.

Your fragile brutality,
our centrifugal pain,
draws the breath right out of me,
to pull us round again.

Please keep me with you safe my love,
'cos we will meet again before the end.

Met my girl by the railroad,
head in my hands.
She said, "I love you but I hurt you."
I said, "I understand."
And I cherish that malignancy
in every part of me.
We, the willing amputees over and over and over and over and over and over again

Until the end.

Just one kiss to build our dreams upon,
it's just one kiss
to build a dream upon.
It's just one kiss to build our dreams upon.

It's just one kiss
to build a dream upon.
It's just one kiss to build our dreams upon.

Death Cab for Cutie - New Year

so this is the new year.
and i don't feel any different.
the clanking of crystal
explosions off in the distance (in the distance).

so this is the new year
and I have no resolutions
for self assigned penance
for problems with easy solutions

so everybody put your best suit or dress on
let's make believe that we are wealthy for just this once
lighting firecrackers off on the front lawn
as thirty dialogues bleed into one

i wish the world was flat like the old days
then i could travel just by folding a map
no more airplanes, or speedtrains, or freeways
there'd be no distance that can hold us back.
