"White Waves" lyrics
"White Waves"
I won't go traveling tonight
I won't go back to the wolves, now
There's something singing in the ice
In the deepest part of the world
And a film across my eyes
As I'm watching all the waves turn white
Took me out on the tide
To make pearls of my eyes
And uncover me, oh, without asking
Tore every stitch, every line, every hook, every eye
Between him and the diamonds, diamonds
Maybe tonight (I'll give in)
With you holding my arms and my stuttering heart
Is unbound and flayed alive
Oh, don't go traveling tonight
Hold that child in your arms
Well, there's no more canaries in the mine
And a cloud, black over the water
And a voice, low in my ear
Says, "The things that we did here will never die"

Calexico - "Epic" Nights we hide between the walls
And voices leading on the ground
Arms reaching out
Hoping for the chance to start
Oooh...
Oooh... ooh ooh
Hearts holding out
Waiting for the bells to bring
My words...
Yeasayer - "2080" I can't sleep when I think about the times we're living in
I can't sleep when I think about the future I was born into
Outside's dressed up like Sunday morning
With no Berlin wall, what the hell you...
Junip - "Line Of Fire" What would you do
If it all came back to you
Each crest of each wave
Bright as lightning
What would you say
If you had to leave today
Leave everything behind
Even though for once you're shining...
Midlake - "The Old And The Young" Time will have warranted all that the foliage brung
Falls to the ground at the feet of the old and the young
Tired and worn from a life made of wallow and pain
Of what will be made is all that...
