"Crying" lyrics
"Crying"
Laugh in the face of death under masthead.
Hold your breath through late breaking disasters,
Next to news of the trite.
And the codes
And the feelings that meant to be noble
Like coke in the nose of the nobles
Keeps it alight.
And the wrath
And the riots
And the races on fire
And the music for tanks with no red lights in sight.
Got you
Cryin'
Cryin'
Oh whyin'
Oh my my my
Gold is another word for culture.
Leads to fattening
Of the vultures
Till this bird can barely fly.
And Mary and David smoke dung in the trenches
While Zion's behaviour never gets mentioned.
The writings
On your wall
And the blood on the cradle
And the ashes you wade through
Got you callin' God's name in vain
Leaved the damned to damn it all!
It's got you
Cryin'
Cryin'
Oh whyin'
Oh my my my
Broken nose, coloured glasses
Can't see for the thorns
And you just can't stand no more!
What a clumsy kind of low
Time to take the wheel and the road
From the masters
Take this car, drive it straight into the wall
Build it back up from the floor.
And stop our
Cryin'
Cryin'
Oh whyin'
Oh my my my
Our cryin'
Our cryin'
Our cryin'
Still you try, try, try
Thanks to Yeah for adding these lyrics.

The Shins - "Sea Legs" Of all the churning random hearts
Under the sun
Eventually fading into night,
These two are opening now
As we lie, I touch you

I'm a listing boat

Spoon - "I Summon You" Remember the weight of the world
It's the sound that we used to buy
On cassette and 45
And now this little girl
She says will we make it at all

The Rapture - "How Deep Is Your Love?" All the love that you're giving me
It helps me see what's right
All my life now you've given me
A chance to see your light
All the feeling I have for you

When I cry you heal...
Local Natives - "Sun Hands" I climbed to the top of a hill
But I had just missed the sun
And although the descending arc was gone
Left behind were the traces that always follow along
The most beautiful colors chase the sun...
Dirty Projectors - "Knotty Pine" Here is the sound that photographs make
When I see them
When I hear them
I see regions of sharp precision
Over abundance
Over indulgence
Tied together with rope and twine
Stuck together with paste...
