"A Wake For The Minotaur" lyrics
"A Wake For The Minotaur"
A glorious light
A ladder along the clouds
A spy in the sun
A shout in the street below
Climb down a white road
Into the dark mouth
Papered in dusk
A river below the lake
I ride in the flood
A dog with the chain removed
'Til the morning rides
'Til my memory lies clear
There's a tear in the darkness
A hole in the light
And I know where you are
I ride in the blood
I ride on the warming rails
Through canyons of sunlight
And wires across the road
Could I have loved you enough
If I fell in the right way
A tear in the darkness
A hole in the light
I'll breathe in the silence
I'll laugh 'til I die

Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds - "Jubilee Street" On Jubilee Street
There was a girl named Bee
She had a history
But she had no past
When they shut her down
The Russians moved in
I'm too scared, I'm too scared
To even walk on past

Dodgy - "Grassman" My darling I would not die
I would kill for you
And let me choose the man who is the sacrifice
Shout and groan and cry and bite make me forget my pain
Scratch my back and pull my hair make me forget...
