"For The Beauty" lyrics
"For The Beauty"
For the beauty, give me some to ease
For it's the beauty that's got its claws in me
There is an ache in our steps as we walk down the streets
But it's the beauty that stops me and brings me to my knees
For the pain, we live with our pain
Each day we manage our pain
In the hum of its song there is comfort and calm
But it's the beauty that sears me and tears at my heart
You stepped off the ledge, clawed at the air
Crawled up the stairwell to throw yourself again
Just to feel, to love, to live, to try
To feel, to live, to love, to try
For the beauty, give me something, please
For it's the beauty that's killing me
I can't trust it anymore or rely on its truth
It pulls me right to it and makes a show of its abuse
You stepped off the ledge, clawed at the air
Crawled up the stairwell to throw yourself again
You stepped off the ledge, clawed at the air
Crawled up the stairwell to throw yourself again
Just to feel, to love, to live, to try
To feel, to live, to love, to try
To feel, to love, to live, to try
To feel, to live, to love, to fly

Lou Reed - "Turning Time Around" She says, What do you call love
well I call it Harry
Oh, please I'm being serious
what do you call love
Well I don't call it family and I don't call it lust

Jonathan Wilson - "Cecil Taylor" Heaven and earth collide
May the spirit's guide be the one I navigate tonight
Well I'm just another hardened set of eyes
Looking for a miracle
Never the twain shall meet
Not even Jesus and al-Salam...
Madrugada - "Hands Up - I Love You" There's no use to complain
Or start it off again
There's no sign of weakness in me
Do I compel you like you compel me?
And nothing stays the same
And no one said it would
I would not think of such...
Richard Hawley - "Precious Sight" Smallwood, a joiner, takes carpenter out for a meal
As soon as we dock see the captain to get a better deal
My darkness in mind is concealed
I'm in here alone and unreal
But not anymore
Not anymore...
Mercury Rev - "Spiders And Flies" Plans and schemes
Thoughts and dreams
Who cares what they mean
When they work they're amazing things
When they don't I hear you scream
Spiders and flies, live and die
Six legs to stand on and two...
