"Blood For Poppies" lyrics
"Blood For Poppies"
Salute the sun, I've been sitting here all night long
Hauling rock over Buddha with the Longhorn
Got a hole, rip a pocket off my uniform
With the Blackwatch Boys, get your heads down
Oh-oh, oh-oh (Oh-oh, oh-oh)
Duty calls but it's way too late, I'm too far gone
Waiting for Godot, hell, with my pants down
Cracked the stash, sent me crying in the midday sun
I miss my dog and I miss my freedom (Freedom)
Oh-oh, oh-oh (Oh-oh, oh-oh)
Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh (Oh-oh, oh-oh)
I don't know why they are calling on the radio
They know I'm here just out of sight
Don't know why they are calling on the radio
He's by my side and I know I'm right
I don't know why they are calling on the radio
They know I'm here just out of sight
Don't know why they are calling on the radio
He's by my side and I know I'm right (Know I'm right)
I hate the things I think about you when I'm all alone
I know you're tough, but I've been gone for so long
Play the memories of you inside my head
So all these pictures of us burn and radiate
Watch the clouds and I'm falling, falling through the cracks
Head beats and the heart is pounding fast
Off the ground into the starry dark
Into your arms I'm falling (Falling, falling)
Oh-oh, oh-oh (Falling, falling)
Oh-oh (Falling, falling), oh-oh, oh-oh (Falling)
I don't know why they are calling on the radio
They know I'm here just out of sight
Don't know why they are calling on the radio
He's by my side and I know I'm right
I don't know why they are calling on the radio
They know I'm here just out of sight
Don't know why they are calling on the radio
He's by my side and I know I'm right (Know I'm right)
(...Keep on falling)
My brain, my body's fried
I've got to stay alive
I've gotta take a chance and keep on moving
Keep on moving
I don't know why they are calling on the radio
They know I'm here just out of sight
Don't know why they are calling on the radio
He's by my side and I know I'm right
Don't know why they are calling on the radio
It's on my side and I know I'm right (I see your light from miles away)
Don't know why they are calling on the radio
It's on my side and I know I'm alright
(I see your light from miles away)
Oh-oh, oh-oh (Oh-oh, oh-oh)
(I see your light from miles away)
Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh (Oh-oh, oh-oh)

Silversun Pickups - "Cannibal" When the king comes down to speak
With animals, animals…
With his claws out for a feast
A cannibal, cannibal…
When we crawl out to the brink
To meet and greet with a wink…
Pull the rug out from...
White Lies - "Farewell To The Fairground" The lights still in our eyes,
We're leaving this whole fairground behind,
It's a dream that's going cold.
The circus never dies,
The act forever haunts these skies,
I know we cannot stay....
Nine Inch Nails - "The Hand That Feeds" You're keeping in step
In the line
Got your chin held high and you feel just fine
Cause you do
What you're told
But inside your heart it is black and it's hollow and it's cold
Just how deep do you...
Peaches - "Talk To Me" Why don't you talk to me?
I'm standin here alone
I know you'll never phone
Why don't you talk to me?
Why don't you talk to me?
Come say it to my face
So we can leave this place
Why don't you talk to...
Franz Ferdinand - "Walk Away" I swapped my innocence for pride
Crushed the end within my stride
Said I'm strong now I know that I'm a leaver
I love the sound of you walking away
You walking away
Mascara bleeds a blackened tear,...
