- Basement Apt.
Well, you live out where the street ends
In a basement apartment with one of your friends
And the tap drips all night
Water torture in the sink
The furnace is burning
But it's still cold I think
And I can smell the bleach
That they use in the hall
- Came On Lion
Closer than a girl can get to trouble
If she hasn't yet got in it
It started out like any show
Up from the dark to the light's warm glow
Did you hear the dedication
When I came up on the stage
And you came on lion
- Capsized
When i heard about the coming day
Wish i could wake up from this dream
In it i see a family photographed
And there you are, tucked in the scene
And theres a jealous net inside my chest
Theres a hurt and sadness there
Maybe i'd tell you all about it
If i thought you'd care
- Captive
I wanna be held captive
Forget the way I acted
It’s just I’m out of practice
And distracted
Hold me to this thing darling
And bring a ladder we’ll climb to the rafters
As long as there’s a view to look to
- Coffee Stain
There's a coffee stain
Around your eye
And lines that I don't recognize
Everything changed
From being okay
The night that you came home
So late
- Dandelions In Bullet Holes
Kaleidoscope,
Wheel of hope.
Place to start out from,
Although it started long ago,
The world's work has begun.
A hula hope,
A human chain.
- Don't Get Your Back Up
Baby, if I could keep it together
Don't you think I'd try
And maybe if I could make something of this
Why wouldn't I
You say I close a blind eye
That I don't put up the time
But what you see as goodbye
- Escarpment Blues
If they blow a hole in my backyard
Everyone is gonna run away
The creeks won't flow to the Great Lake below
Will the water in the wells still be okay?
We'll need to build some new apartments
And I know we're gonna have to fix the roads
But if we blow a hole in the escarpment
- Everytime
I can throw away my fears
Up into the atmosphere
They race away at the rate
Of the smoke and rust
Look at all the poor drivers
Gotta go to work while I sleep
Steel town's light keep on glowing
On smokestacks that keep blowing
- Go To Sleep
Go to sleep
At least lie here awhile
Best to look straight through your eyelids
Count or listen to the voices
But don't go out and down to the landing
Give it time enough
I'll check the clock
- Goin' Out
When the days close on the memories you've acquired
And your body cannot hold your soul's fire
You are here and not alone everybody has come home
There's a bed made up upstairs if you get tired
All the heaviness around you will get light
And your worry lifted up into the night
Left with nothin' but pure love
- How Deep In The Valley
How deep in the valley must you go
To find what your footsteps already know?
The way on is the way out
There are signs to follow
There is deep in the valley
And I'm bound to go
How deep in the valley must you stay
- I Am Aglow
I am aglow with thoughts of you?
Are the stories that you told me true?
It doesn't matter if they are
They are to me
I am aglow
Some might say these thoughts are wrong
That you might see yourself in this song
- I'm A Mountain
Well now how did they get that lady on TV
Laughing so naturally
For a Wal-Mart ad
Is it not as bad as I thought?
There's a woman sending poisonous mail
And they caught her now she's sitting in jail
While the weather station forecasts hail
- It Will Sail
I think it'll float
I think it'll sail
We may take on waves
Hit a gale
But considering this love
Most everything
Says I think it'll fly
And I think it'll sing
- Late Bloomer
Oh late bloomer the rumours were true
You know I checked your ID when you left the room
I didn't want to see it coming, I showed off my heart
Now there's a scar in the shape of a question mark
Oh late bloomer the rumours were true
Scattered leaves are all that's left of you
I never thought I'd be the marrying kind
- Lodestar
Out of the night, into the water
We push the boat from shore
Breaking the air in the stillness of the bay
Intensity of stars reflected in the harbour
Silently ignite
The oar dips in to oil like water and we
Are away
- Luther's Got The Blues
I hate the city it brings me down
I'm a country boy I'm new to town
But I never really thought it was gonna be like that
Spent all my money, I'm busted flat
So I'm eating my dinners at the Sally Ann
Met a fellow named Charlie there, a fellow named Stan
And they laugh at my clothes and the way that I talk
- New Enemy
"When you find yourself a new enemy
Can you take me down off the hook
That you've been hangin' me on?," he said
With almost all the love gone
Will the time soon come when you see fit?
The light will change
Will you just look at it and stare
- New Loneliness
There is just one apple on the tree
It isn't like I hoped it'd be
Yesterday when there was still you
I looked and I swear that I saw two
Maybe a wandering white-tailed deer
Came in the night to make it even more clear
And left me just one, a Spartan no less
To remind me of my new loneliness
- New Low
I wanna ride this feeling into the night
I wanna see how far
Nights are fleeting, you know they are
I wanna see if we can take this
From flame to fire
Heat is fleeting but hearts are beating hard
Out in the streets three times this week
New threats, new lows
- Oleander
Oleander, Oleander
Will you bloom again this spring?
I adored you, then I ignored you
And now to me you're everything
And those white blossoms that you gave freely
Are now just twinkles in your eye
Oh beholder, Oleander
- One Match
If I only had one match left
Would I try to light a fire under you?
If I could only say one thing
Would it be what I've been wanting to?
Every time I close the gate
I wonder if this is enough
If I only had one match left
I would try to light it between us
- Pendulums
We are like pendulums
Our arms swinging at our sides
And I am a good little clock
Walking along power lines
I'm thinking like a swinging door
Hinging on these changing thoughts
Between the pull up to the shore
- Salamandre
Salamander, Salamander
You have to help me understand
All the mysteries of the forest
The secret map, the golden tree
I'm waiting for you patiently
Salamander
Salamander, Salamander
- Silver Road
I'll be way down the silver road
I'll go where the moon has it lit up
Turn off your headlights and go slowly
I don't want it to let up
Had you been thinking that you were all alone
While I still thought of you
A word every once in a while
- Silverado
Hey what about me
When can I tumble like old Neil, ass over heels?
When can I float above the road to see how that feels?
Who made these promises to raise the hopes of dopes like us?
We should know by now but when it comes to dreams we're suckers still
When it comes to dreams we're suckers still
Hey what about me
- St. Peter's Bay
Can we get the ocean to freeze over?
Sandy banks of snow across the road
Keep the full moon high over your shoulder
But keep the puck low
We don't want to go looking for it
In the headlight's glow
We played til frozen
- Tether
Living this close to the road
You'll question your vulnerability
Got the curtains closed and there's nothing
For those bold coyotes to see
Just an airplane in the sky
That I hear high up the chimney
And the lonely cold coming up
To find a warmer place to be
- The City
The city was too late for us
I got there and you wanted to get away
The city was too grey for us
We slept through the blue skies under clouds of the duvet
And the streets were all to straight for us
A parade of nobility seen from above
But the city is to blame for us and what was our love
- The Hideout
Look at that green out through the screen
After a quick rain came
So fast that there wasn't time
To roll up the window
And pull the clothes down off the line
But I don't care, it was so dry
The grass is happy and I think, "so am I"
'Cause I'm through thinking about you
- The Phoenix
It was a late-in-the-summer night
Nearing the end of a bumpy ride
Through the backstage parking lots of the country
We went past the cars at the fray
The cops on bikes
The security gate
Into the trees where the dark comes easy
See the light of the Venus shining
- The Ring
You thank me all the time
But now it's my turn
Cause truly a word of gratitude so due
Can't go unheard
And it made me feel better
To have you there in my corner
My eyes cast so low
My face could not have been
- The Thief
A new wind will blow through everything
Through everything I know
I was looking into every car hoping that someone might see and look back
I knew I let it out too far
I watched it go
I couldn't get it all back
Slowed it down below a waltz where there was hardly any sway or grace left
- Things To Forget
I got to put some things in the ground
Even with this season coming around
It's green's last gasp
And leaves brown
And autumn days are winding down
I got to get it out of my head
And make good on some things I've said
- Took It All
You said I could have it all
You said it to me
With your eyes so wide, excited
I stop to see what you mean
In the drone of afternoon traffic
On a slope that's slippery
In the relative fear, invited
- Uniform Grey
8 сезон "Баффи"
Chosen by Executive Producer and Writer Joss Whedon
------------------------------------
It's perfectly suited
This uniform grey
There are no bearings
To the day
- Washington
I didn't go to Washington instead I swept the floor
The only things I've ever done you can't see anymore
I knew there would be magic but I turned at the last chance
These idle hands are staying scared of making any plans
Cause the fire needed tending and the windows are so wide
Sometimes I feel I'm in the world when I'm looking from inside
I will pack down the snow, make a path to the road, and I'll think of the long ride
- Weakened State
From the minute you saw it
By the time it left my mouth
I know you wouldn't want it
But I had to have it out
I saw your smile
I felt it
Now I just can't believe
There was no knowing deception underneath
- You Were Here
Are there no blinders on lights that glare
White noise on the eyes
From gas station lights and reflected ice glare
So that I can walk home by moonlight
Alone
Or can we go out to where the wind howls and stand to lean up against the trees
They've grown up so tall that you can't see the house
