Longwave - Wake Me When It's Over

 

 

When the weight is on your shoulders

Come on your knees

When the weight is on your shoulders

Come on your knees

 

Wake me when it's over

Wake me please

Wake me when it's over

 

All the things you knew for sure

Were not what they seemed

All the things you knew for sure

Were not what they seemed

 

Wake me when it's over

Wake me please

Wake me when it's over

 

When all the noise is gone

Anything you want

I will give away just to watch you go

"Cry on My Shoulder" - Bonnie Raitt

https://youtu.be/Fu560_vXP2c

 

 

I know it's hard sometimes

And things seem larger than they are

But if you need to tell someone

That's what I'm here for

 

Cry on my shoulder

I'll help you rise above

Cry on my shoulder, my love

 

Out in the world outside

It can be harsh and cold

But if you need someone

I will be here to hold you

 

Cry on my shoulder

I'll help you dry your eyes

Cry on my shoulder, my love

My love

 

I know it's hard sometimes

And things seem larger than they are

But if you need to let it go

Then you can call on me

 

Cry on my shoulder

I'll help you dry your eyes

Cry on my shoulder, my love

 

Cry on my shoulder

I'll help you rise above

Cry on my shoulder, my love

My love

Catherine Wheel - Phantom of The American Mother

 

 

watch this picture blow

it makes you wonder

bless this broken low

it takes time to explain to you

 

that underneath your skin is mother dear

and if you paint your face again you’ll disappear

 

how you gonna feel

if Superman and Sonic Youth are fairy tales

its time to face the truth

you’ll throw your life away

as a woman dressed as Baby Jane

 

like a phantom of the American Mother

it’s here again

like a phantom of the American Mother

 

all that you’re concealing are the things that are good in you

and you do

and you’re still abandoning the news

now there’s a sinking look in your eyes

like black holes in the sky

 

and every time you moved I realized

everything in you was hypnotized

 

how you gonna feel

if Superman and Sonic Youth are fairy tales

its time to face the truth

you walked the hall of fame

a woman dressed as Baby Jane

 

like a phantom of the American Mother

it’s here again

like a phantom of the American Mother

 

so here it is, you needed proof

there’s no rock'n’roll parade for you

its time to face the truth

 

like a phantom of the American Mother

it’s here again

"Last, Lonely and Wretched" - Joan Baez

 

You're tired and you're poor

You long to be free

But in this Godforsaken land

You find no home, no family

The many roads that you've wandered

Since the day of your birth

 

You've become

One of the last, lonely and wretched

 

Your hair is matted

Your face and hands are dirty

The years that you've toiled

Must number somewhere near thirty

The deepening of a sadness

Broke finally into madness

 

You are truly

One of the last, lonely and wretched

 

Your eyes are wild and frightening

At the same time they are blessed

And I wonder if God died

Turned his back, or only just rested

And you walked out on the seventh day

Through the big gates and on your way

 

To become

One of the last, lonely and wretched

 

For once you were a child

Your cheeks were red, you were well fed

You laughed and played till you got teary

Ran to your mother when you were weary

 

But somewhere you were forsaken

Alone I'll not bear the blame

And somehow all was taken

Your mind, your body, your name

 

Forgive us our unkindness

Our desertion and our blindness

With you

The last, lonely and wretched

 

Forgive us

All the last, lonely and wretched

 

 

    :'(

"The Angry River"

The Hat ft. Father John Misty & S.I. Istwa

https://youtu.be/QohZXA8wvIA

 

The emptiness that we confess

In the dimmest hour of day

In the common town they make a sound

Like the low sad moan of prey

 

The bitter taste the hidden face

Of the lost forgotten child

The darkest need the slowest speed

The debt unreconciled

 

These photographs mean nothing

To the poison that they take

Before a moment's glory

The light begins to fade

 

The awful cost of all we lost

As we looked the other way

We've paid the price of this cruel device

Till we've nothing left to pay

 

The river goes where the current flows

The light we must destroy

Events conspire to set afire

The methods we employ

 

These dead men walk on water

Cold blood runs through their veins

The angry river rises

As we step into the rain

 

These photographs mean nothing

To the poison that they take

The angry river rises

As we step into the rain

"Just Dropped In

(To See What Condition My Condition Was In)"

 

Kenny Rogers & The First Edition

 

White Denim

 

I woke up this mornin' with the sundown shinin' in

I found my mind in a brown paper bag within

I tripped on a cloud and fell eight miles high

I tore my mind on a jagged sky

 

I just dropped in

To see what condition my condition was in

 

I pushed my soul in a deep dark hole

And then I followed it in

I watched myself crawlin' out

As I was crawlin' in

 

I got up so tight

I couldn't unwind

I saw so much

I broke my mind

 

I just dropped in

To see what condition my condition was in

 

Someone painted "April Fool"

In big black letters on a "Dead End" sign

I had my foot on the gas as I left the road

And blew out my mind

 

Eight miles outta Memphis

And I got no spare

Eight miles straight up

Downtown somewhere

 

I just dropped in

To see what condition my condition was in

I said I just dropped in

To see what condition my condition was in

"You Gonna Fly" - Keith Urban

 

One, two, three baby don't think twice

Just like that you got a brand new life

Hop in this truck and run through the red lights

Yeah where you wanna go baby name a town

We can go up north, we could head down south

Roll down the windows and hit the radio loud

 

C'mon turn it up, yeah

Start living your life

On the double, leave your troubles behind

You and me, we're gonna be alright

 

You could be a blackbird on a country street

Hiding from the world with a broken wing

But you better believe you gonna fly with me

You could be a songbird from New Orleans

Scared of the rain just as scared to sing

But you better believe you gonna fly with me

 

Well, here we are baby in the back of my bed

Suns going down skies turning red

Stars coming out

Baby look at you now

God knows how long but it's been a while

Since I heard you laugh and I seen that smile

Felt that kiss and I can get used to this

Baby I could get used to this

 

You could be a blackbird on a country street

Hiding from the world with a broken wing

But you better believe you gonna fly with me

You could be a songbird from New Orleans

Scared of the rain just as scared to sing

But you better believe you gonna fly with me

 

You gonna fly

"You'll Get Through This" - Martina McBride

Pull the shades down on the sun

Don't wanna see the morning

Break to another day

I don't have the strength to face

 

Close the door and keep it shut

Lord, this ache is just too much for me to take

How do I begin to pray

My way back to some kind of peace of mind

 

But then I hear love whispering

Through the darkest of times

 

[CHORUS:]

You'll get through this

You'll break new ground

When you're lost within your weakness

Hope is waiting to be found

You'll get through this no matter what it takes

I believe in you for heaven's sake

You'll get through this

 

When doubt starts tearing

At the faith deep in you don't be afraid

Just remember what I say

Nothing formed against you will succeed

As long as your heart's turned to me 

 

[CHORUS]

 

Nothing formed against you will succeed

As long as your heart's turned to me

 

You'll get through this

You'll break new ground

When you're lost within your weakness

Hope is waiting to be found

You'll get through this no matter what it takes

I believe in you for heaven's sake

You'll get through this

"The Light Will Stay On" - The Walkabouts

 

I go to sleep before the devil awakes

And I wake up before the angels take

All my secrets untold, all my motives unclear

Hanging down in the fire, burning them higher

Won't take them away from here

 

And long after we're gone

The lights will stay on

The lights will stay on

 

Watch the city, the city of crows

Watch them fly, watch them all flying low

Out above the flood plain just above the dirt road

They were hungry as winter, hungry as us

Not afraid to be flying, not afraid to be lost

 

And long after we're gone

The lights will stay on

The lights will stay on

 

And if you bury me, add three feet to it

One for your sorrow, two for your sweat

Three for the strange things we never forget

 

And long after we're gone

The lights will stay on

The lights will stay on

And long after we're safe

The lights will not fade

The lights will not fade

"Best Of Us Go Down" - Aquilo

So long, problems

I have seen enough

I have seen it tear apart

And break away the trust

 

So long, brother

I have said enough

I have seen the best of us

Go down and not come up

 

The best of us

Go down and not come up

The best of us

Go down and not come up

 

I should know now

I have stayed too long

I have seen the best of us

Fly high and hit the sun

 

So long, brother

I have said enough

I have seen the best of us

Go down and not come up

"Wonderworld" - Uriah Heep

https://youtu.be/jlc1sw3yWmc

 

We freely speak of dreams

We marvel at what they conceal

But in my wonderworld

Each sleeping vision is so real

 

So I believe and hope

That all the things I see

May one day bring

Such truth and peace

As we can feel

 

Free from this waking world

Deep in sleep's mystery

My will is free to wander

Free to wander carelessly

 

At times it's not so far

From what we call reality

And at times I know I wonder

If it all could come true

 

Oh, Mr. Wonderworld

Don't be afraid

Cause dreams were made

Were made to dim the light

The torment day can bring

And leave you free

To laugh aloud and hear

Your heart bells ring

Oh, oh, Mr. Wonderworld

Wonderworld

"Birds Fly"

Hardwell Feat. Mr. Probz

 

Ask me do I want this, I say do birds fly

Ask me do I feel it, I feel it tonight

If you ask me where the past is, I left it behind

And I'll just try to show you every sight

 

When you're a star

And you looking up at the stars

It just looks like Venus or Mars

Let's make this universe ours

Gravity's holding us down

So let's turn this planet around

And no, don't you worry about how

Can't nothing stop us now

 

[CHORUS:]

If birds fly so can I

I got a heartbreak dawn rising in my sky

It's so beautiful I just might cry

Watching birds fly

 

Go on, ask me,  do I love you

I'll say, does the sun shine

Ask me, and I'll tell you

You know I can't lie

 

When you're a star

And you looking up at the stars

It just looks like Venus or Mars

Let's make this universe ours

Gravity's holding us down

So let's turn this planet around

And no, don't you worry about how

Can't nothing stop us now

 

[CHORUS]

(x2)

 

Fly, fly, fly, fly

Just might cry watching them fly

Fly, fly, fly, fly

Wanna touch the sky

Fly, fly, fly, fly

Wanna touch the sky

Fly, fly, fly, fly

 

If birds fly so can I

I got a heartbreak dawn rising in my sky

It's so beautiful I just might cry

Watching birds fly

I know you thought it best

That we spend a little time apart

But one night without you

Is too much for my heart

 

I know I promised not to call

Sorry, but I didn't have a choice

I just had to hear your voice

I had to know that you're okay

I couldn't get to sleep this way

 

Please don't be mad at me

Cause I really did the best I could

Not to dial your number

But it didn't do much good

Hung up the phone so many times

Till I didn't have a choice

I just had to hear your voice

 

I had to know that you're okay

I couldn't get to sleep this way

But I had to hear you say hello

I had to because I love you so

 

I know you thought it best

That we spend a little time apart

But I had to hear your voice

Though I know it wasn't right

Oh, I had to hear your voice

Goodnight

Suzanne Vega "Luka" (1987):

 

 

Lyrics:

 

My name is Luka

I live on the second floor

I live upstairs from you

Yes I think you've seen me before

 

If you hear something late at night

Some kind of trouble. some kind of fight

Just don't ask me what it was [x3]

 

I think it's because I'm clumsy

I try not to talk too loud

Maybe it's because I'm crazy

I try not to act too proud

 

They only hit until you cry

After that you don't ask why

You just don't argue anymore [x3]

 

Yes I think I'm okay

I walked into the door again

Well, if you ask that's what I'll say

And it's not your business anyway

I guess I'd like to be alone

With nothing broken, nothing thrown

 

Just don't ask me how I am [x3]

 

My name is Luka

I live on the second floor

I live upstairs from you

Yes I think you've seen me before

 

If you hear something late at night

Some kind of trouble, some kind of fight

Just don't ask me what it was [x3]

 

And they only hit until you cry

After that, you don't ask why

You just don't argue anymore [x3]

"Running To The Sea"

Röyksopp Ft. Susanne Sundfør

I could hear them howling from afar

I saw them rushing to your car

In a moment all went screaming wild

Until the darkness killed the light

 

I remember running to the sea

The burning houses and the trees

I remember running to the sea

Alone and blinded by the fear

 

And the river flows beneath your skin

Like savage horses kept within

And all is wasted in the sand

Like breaking diamonds with your hand

 

I remember running to the sea

Remember falling to my knees

I remember gliding off the shore

Until I touched the ocean floor

 

And the river flows beneath your skin

Like savage horses kept within

And all is wasted in the sand

Like breaking diamonds with your hand

 

And the river grows inside of me

And the river grows inside of me

And the river grows inside of me

And the river grows inside of me

And the river grows inside of me

And the river grows inside of me

"Doves & Ravens" - Lamb

 

He said

He'd never face the cold

Without her hand there to hold

That was long ago

When the snow was whiter

 

And the wind calls her name

So she's not alone

Doves and ravens came

And they sing their song

 

She said

When it rains, it pours

Hazy sunset, distant shores

 

And the wind calls her name

So she's not alone

Doves and ravens came

And they sing their song to the sun

 

Planets

Pass just once or twice

Just a moment's trick in time

 

And the wind calls her name

So she's not alone

Doves and ravens came

And they sing their song to the sun

 

And the wind calls her name

So she's not alone

Doves and ravens came

And they sing their song to the sun

And they sing their song to the sun

"Waiting For A Friend" - Roger Daltrey

 

If I fell in a lake

Would you dive in or would you stand there and gape

And if I drowned, would you jump

Or would you let the water burst in my lungs

 

Well, a stranger in the street

May be the only one on his knees

When you're laying by the roadside

Waiting for a friend to come

 

Got my hopes, got my doubts

A gut reaction says I got to find out

Who's against, who to trust

Ooh, you never know but I might get killed in the rush

 

A stranger in the street

May be the only one on his knees

When you're laying by the roadside

Waiting for a friend to come

 

You laugh you think it's a joke

Just stand there grinning

Will you be there at the post

When I ain't winning

 

Hey, black or white, good and bad

How many times have I done this and done that

Every life, everyone

If I knew then I'd probably take out a gun

 

But it's mother nature's law

To get you coming back for more

Instead of laying by the roadside

Waiting for a friend to come

 

You laugh you think it's a joke

Just stand there grinning

But will you be there at the post

When I ain't winning

 

Hey, black or white, good and bad

How many times have I done this and done that

Every life, everyone

If I knew then I'd probably take out a gun

 

But it's mother nature's law

To get you coming back for more

Instead of laying by the roadside

Waiting for the end to come

 

Laying by the roadside

Waiting for a friend to come

"Move On Up" - Curtis Mayfield

https://youtu.be/8USz7gb2RGQ

 

Hush now, child

And don't you cry

Your folks might understand you

By and by

 

Just move on up

Toward your destination

Though you may find from time to time

Complication

 

Bite your lip

And take the trip

Though there may be wet road ahead

And you cannot slip

 

Just move on up

For peace you'll find

Into the steeple of beautiful people

Where there's only one kind

 

So hush now, child

And don't you cry

Your folks might understand you

By and by

 

Move on up

And keep on wishing

Remember your dream

Is your only scheme

So keep on pushing

 

Take nothing less

Than the supreme best

Do not obey rumors people say

That you can't pass the test

 

Just move on up

To a greater day

With just a little faith

If you put your mind to it

You can surely do it

 

Just move on up

Move on up

But move on up

Oh, child, but just move on up

But move on up

Move on up

Somebody loves you, Baby

Oh, oh, oh

Somebody loves you, Baby

Somebody loves you, Baby

Somebody loves you, Baby

You know who it is

 

It happened so suddenly

I woke up one morning with you on my mind

No matter what I did

Couldn't stop thinking about you

Wanted instant replay of yesterday

 

Somebody loves you, Baby

Oh, oh, oh

Somebody loves you, Baby

You know who it is

Somebody loves you, Baby

I think you know who it is

 

I'm under your spell

I don't want to break free

You can make a slave out of me

I worship you and nobody else 

I pledge my love to you forever

 

Somebody loves you, Baby

Oh, oh, oh

Somebody loves you, Baby

You know I do

Somebody loves you, Baby

It's me, it's me

 

I need you right now

Baby, don't say no

Cause you look like you're ready to get it on

Whatever you give me

I give it to you back

All the love, honey, you'll ever need

I'll give it to you

 

Somebody loves you, Baby

I love you, I love you

I said that somebody is me

Oh, I said it's me

It's me, it's me

Suzanne Vega - Bad Wisdom

 

 

Mother the doctor knows something is wrong

Cause my body has strange information

He's looked in my eyes and knows I'm not a child

But he doesn't dare ask the right question

Mother my friends are no longer my friends

And the games we once played have no meaning

I've gone serious and shy and they can't figure why

So they've left me to my own daydreaming

What price to pay

For bad wisdom

What price to pay

For bad wisdom

Too young to know

Too much too soon

Bad wisdom

Bad wisdom

 

What price to pay

For bad wisdom

What price to pay

For bad wisdom

Too young to know

Too much too soon

Bad wisdom [X2]

 

Mother you've taught me the laws are so fine

If I'm good that I will be protected

I've fallen through the crack and there's no getting back

And I'll never trust whoever gets elected

 

Mother your eyes have gone suddenly cold

And it wasn't what I was expecting

Once I did think that I'd find comfort there

And instead you've gone hard and suspecting

 

What price to pay

For bad wisdom

What price to pay

For bad wisdom

Too young to know

Too much too soon

Bad wisdom [X2]

 

Mother I'm cut at the root like a weed

Cause there's no one to hear my small story

Just like a woman who walks in the street

I will pay for my life with my body

 

What price to pay

For bad wisdom

What price to pay

For bad wisdom

Too young to know

Too much too soon

Bad wisdom [X2]
