Overcome - Carina Round
Too many ghosts reside behind this window, I could dig it out but I don't hear the beginning of morning song. Tripping lightly from night's tongue, city lights fade below me. Black wings spread overhead, lover, didn't you know me? I will overcome, I will open, I will overcome, I will open. Slow my body moves into the future forever. Waiting for the moment of gift. Temper the balance of life and love, fall and the tightrope chokes. You'll own land and sea, to find a girl, shoot the pearl for one man only.
Muhammad My Friend - Tori Amos
Muhammad my friend it's time to tell the world. We both know it was a girl back in Bethlehem, and on that fateful day when she was crucified. She wore Shiseido Red and we drank tea by her side. Sweet sweet, used to be so sweet to me. Muhammad my friend, I'm getting very scared. Teach me how to love my brothers, who don't know the law. And what about the deal on the flying trapeze got a peanut butter hand, but honey do drop in at the Dew Drop Inn. Sweet sweet, between the boys and the bees. And Moses I know, I know you've seen fire, but you've never seen fire until you've seen Pele blow. And I've never seen light, but I sure have seen gold, and Gladys save the place for me. On your grapevine, till I get my own TV Show. Ashre, ashre, ashre, ashre, and if I lose my Cracker Jacks at the tidal wave I got a place in the Pope's rubber robe. Muhammad my friend, it's time to tell the world. We both know it was a girl, back in Bethlehem.
A Good Man Is Hard To Find - Sufjan Stevens
Once in the backyard, she was once like me, she was once like me. Twice when I killed them, they were once at peace, they were once like me. Hold to your gun, man, and put off all your peace, put off all the beast. Paid a full of these, I wait for it, but someone's once like me. She was once like me. I once was better. I put off all my grief, I put off all my grief. And so I go to hell, I wait for it, but someone's left me creased. And someone's left me creased.
Speak For Me - Cat Power
Pick us up we’re all by ourselves, the great big howling is about to begin. A thousand miles from where it all begins, old world, the whole world is. Going on and on (forfeit the shape to fit), the backhand to a touch is moving on again (forfeit the shape to fit). Going on and on (forfeit the shape to fit). What’s next? I’m out of time, losing my touch I can't feel, speak for me, do you see the same signs. Do you know how to read between the lines? All in all, it's all or none, all for one, what you want. Pick us out of a line up, stranded and strange just as innocent as kids. The found are leaving and they're trying to forget. The old world, the whole world is going on and on (forfeit the shape to fit), a backhand to the touch is moving on again (forfeit the shape to fit). Going on and on (forfeit the shape to fit), going on and on.
Howl - Florence And The Machine
If you could only see the beast you've made of me, I held it in but now it seems you've set it running free. Screaming in the dark, I howl when we're apart, drag my teeth across your chest to taste your beating heart. My fingers claw your skin, try to tear my way in, you are the moon that breaks the night for which I have to howl. Now there's no holding back, I'm making to attack, my blood is singing with your voice, I want to pour it out. The saints can't help me now, the ropes have been unbound, I hunt for you with bloody feet across the hallow'd ground. Like some child possessed, the beast howls in my veins, I want to find you tear out all your tenderness. And howl, howl, howl, howl. Be careful of the curse that falls on young lovers, starts so soft and sweet and turns them to hunters. Hunters, hunters, hunters. The fabric of your flesh, pure as a wedding dress, until I wrap myself inside your arms I cannot rest. The saints can't help me now, the ropes have been unbound. I hunt for you with bloodied feet across the hallow'd ground, and howl. Be careful of the curse that falls on young lovers, starts so soft and sweet and turns them to hunters. A man who's pure of heart and says his prayers by night may still become a wolf when the autumn moon is bright. If you could only see the beast you've made of me, I held it in but now it seems you've set it running free. The saints can't help me now, the ropes have been unbound, I hunt for you with bloody feet across the hallow'd ground.
