"The Winning Numbers" lyrics
"The Winning Numbers"
They'll tempt you with youth
They'll tempt you with an age you've already been for a whole year and sell that as an adventure to you
They will blank out your face in the make-up room
They'll tempt you with fame that will make you invisible
They'll tempt you with a new instrument cause you hate practicing the old ones
They will tempt with removing the scar on your forehead you fell so hard for
They'll tempt you with a perfect health because they can't tempt the dead
They'll talk about frequencies you can't hear so they can tempt you with the relic of Van Gogh's ear
In broad daylight they'll tempt you into a dark church just to pay for a candle
They'll tempt you with new ideas, David Bowie had ages before you
They will tempt you with a freedom that was imposed on them by their parents
They will reveal an alternative to things you never questioned
They'll tempt you into removing your embarrassing browsing history when it's full of Freudian wisdom
They will offer you a glass of gluhwein at a book burning
They'll tempt you into labeling ex-lovers as narcissists just because they're not making love to you anymore
I guess I wanted to say sorry Rebecca
I'm sorry
It's august the 14th
And the winning numbers are
29, 17, 11, 32, 5, 18

It felt like a different kind of fight
Baby, don't lie to me
You know that I believe you
Always in love...
Benjamin Clementine - "Delighted" Here we go again
Here we go again
Up the ball goes
Till gravity intervene
Do the best you can
But nothing's guaranteed
We lean, we learn, we earn, we turn, we burn
We lean, we learn, we earn, we...
Alela Diane - "The Pirate's Gospel" While some folks row way up to heaven
I'm gonna sing the pirate's gospel
I'm gonna sow these feet for dancin'
I'm gonna keep my eyes wide open
Yo ho yo ho

Yo ho yo ho ho
Yo ho yo ho

Anna Calvi - "Strange Weather" She'll take you back, don't make believe
You wanna think it through
I've loved before, I'll love again
I know that yours was true
Wake up slowly, there are blue skies
Cutting white lines in black...
Dekker - "Hands Clean" Keep your hands clean
Keep your hearts wide open
If you're antsy
Know you're not the only one
Hope over fear
Love over hate
When it's unclear
Where to place your next foot down
And you're unsure
That...
