"'05: Never Again" lyrics
"'05: Never Again"
Never again down this cobblestone lane
We'll walk in the rain
Just having a day
Never when newspaper pages blow by
We'll watch as they fly
And sing what they say
I guess there'll be
Other fish in the sea
But I don't want fishes
And you don't want me
Never again will we walk in the snow
With nowhere to go
For ten centuries
Lately I'm thinking of packing it in
And going to Berlin or Los Angeles
I wish I had some place better to go
But lately I can't take New York in the snow
I'm sorry I wasted your summer
I shouldn't have stolen your light
Instead of me gawking
I should've kept walking
Everything would be alright
Never again will I look in your eyes
And see your surprise
At not being dead
Forever then I won't know what to do
With these houses for you
I've built in my head
I wish I had something better to do
But even my own clothes remind me of you

Arthur Russell - "Close My Eyes" I close my eyes and listen
To hear the corn come out
Don't you hear the stars they glisten
As we go in and out
Down where the trees grow together
And the western path comes to an end
See the sign it...
Destroyer - "The Bad Arts" Absolve, absolve, absolve
We spent the better part of the day
Waiting for the wave to hit our side of town
It didn't
Absolve, absolve, absolve
I wash my hands of the stuff of legends
And what news...
Galaxie 500 - "Ceremony" This is why events unnerve me
They find it all, a different story
Notice whom for wheels are turning
Turn again and turn towards this time
All she ask's the strength to hold me
Then again the same...
Broken Social Scene - "I'm Still Your Fag" Heard about your wife and kids where we slept
Felt their mouths with stitches at that were slowly lit
Kept your uniform this time because I couldn't quit
Haven't felt the ground so cold without...
Okkervil River - "Black Sheep Boy" Here I am back home again
I'm here to rest
all they ask is where I've been
knowing I've been West
I'm the family's unowned boy
golden curls of envied hair
pretty girls with faces fair
see the shine...
