"Blank Diary Entry" lyrics
"Blank Diary Entry"
(feat. Mark Lanegan)
In a garden full of locusts
Pain was a crying man
Wrapped in several kinds of skin
Seeking consolation in machines
Stuck in a hole of collapsing time
Locked into solitude by body state and mind
A silent tension drags and weakens
In a hollow room the darkness deepens
The curve steepens
Just another blank diary entry
The emptiness tells its own story
A blank diary entry
A slow painful goodbye to glory
A goodbye to glory
A gentle murmuration concealed to all but me
Estranged sad and softened
In a low sky by the sea, patiently
Disciplined desires and toxic agendas
Polished by light yet still half remembered
Fatigued, tired, ragged and distressed
No way out of this unholy mess
I must confess
Just another blank diary entry
The emptiness tells its own story
A blank diary entry
A slow painful goodbye to glory
A goodbye to glory
Just another blank diary entry
The emptiness tells its own story
Blank diary entry
A slow painful goodbye to glory
A goodbye to glory

Elbow - "Kindling (Fickle Flame)" Had a circular saw blade
Where I should have had a heart
You kept your boat afloat for so long
I was trusted, I adored her
And I tore it all apart
I saw you try and stop the sunset on your own
Twin...
Electronic - "Getting Away With It" I've been walking in the rain
Just to get wet on purpose
I've been forcing myself not to forget
Just to feel worse
I've been getting away with it all my life (getting away)
However I look it's clear...
Semisonic - "Secret Smile" Nobody knows it but you've got a secret smile
And you use it only for me
Nobody knows it but you've got a secret smile
And you use it only for me
So use it and prove it
Remove this whirling sadness...
