A great song about bullying.  If you are being bullied, just remember, "Courage is fire, and bullying is smoke." - Benjamin Disraeli

An extraordinary gathering of people in Haifa singing a song called "One Day" by Matisyahu. It's goosebump-raising music as far as I'm concerned! There's the music itself, plus the joy that's evident as you watch people's faces. A real musical treat!

Sarah Barrielles - Brave

 

 

 

 

"Brave"

 

You can be amazing

You can turn a phrase into a weapon or a drug

You can be the outcast

Or be the backlash of somebody's lack of love

Or you can start speaking up

 

Nothing's gonna hurt you the way that words do

When they settle 'neath your skin

Kept on the inside and no sunlight

Sometimes a shadow wins

But I wonder what would happen if you

 

Say what you wanna say

And let the words fall out

Honestly, I wanna see you be brave

With what you want to say

And let the words fall out

Honestly, I wanna see you be brave

 

I just wanna see you

I just wanna see you

I just wanna see you

I wanna see you be brave

 

I just wanna see you

I just wanna see you

I just wanna see you

I wanna see you be brave

 

Everybody's been there,

Everybody's been stared down by the enemy

Fallen for the fear

And done some disappearing,

Bow down to the mighty

Don't run, just stop holding your tongue

 

Maybe there's a way out of the cage where you live

Maybe one of these days you can let the light in

Show me how big your brave is

 

Say what you wanna say

And let the words fall out

Honestly, I wanna see you be brave

With what you want to say

And let the words fall out

Honestly, I wanna see you be brave

 

And since your history of silence

Won't do you any good,

Did you think it would?

Let your words be anything but empty

Why don't you tell them the truth?

 

Say what you wanna say

And let the words fall out

Honestly, I wanna see you be brave

With what you want to say

And let the words fall out

Honestly, I wanna see you be brave

 

I just wanna see you

I just wanna see you

I just wanna see you

I wanna see you be brave

 

I just wanna see you

I just wanna see you

I just wanna see you

See you be brave

 

I just wanna see you (yeah)

I just wanna see you (oh ooh)

I just wanna see you

 

I just wanna see you

I just wanna see you

I just wanna see you

Longwave - There's A Fire

 

 

There's a fire,

And all the lines are down,

There's a panic in the town,

And all the wires are crossed,

Now they're calling in the dark.

 

And the teeth shine like pearls,

In a witchy underworld,

And they all feed the flames,

When they're moving in.

 

And everyone knows your name,

In the dark it's all the same,

When you're done down in the black,

And you want to take to take it back,

Yeah, you want to take it back.

 

There's a fire,

And all the lights are out,

There's strange noise about,

Now it's happened all around,

Buildings burned to the ground.

 

Now the flames have reached the heart,

People spilling out in cars,

And they all feel the flames,

When they're moving in.

 

And everyone knows your name,

In the dark it's all the same,

When you're done down in the black,

And you want to take it back,

Yeah, you want to take it back.

 

Everyone knows your name,

In the dark it's all the same,

And when you're done down in the black,

And you want to take it back,

 

There's a fire,

And all the lines are down,

There's a panic in the town,

But the worst is almost passed,

Now the dogs are gone at last.

 

And the teeth shine like pearls,

In a witchy underworld,

And they wanna point the blame,

You can hear them saying:

 

"And everyone knows your name,

In the end it's all the same,

Whether you're dancing in the light,

Or crawling on all fours."

 

In the end it's all the same,

When there's no one left to blame,

And you're done down in the black,

And you want to take it back,

Yeah, you want to take it back,

There's a fire.

There's a fire.

There's a fire.

There's a fire.

Monster movie - vanishing act

 

 

Without warning

I can feel you're out of reach

It's alright your out of sight

With no reflection

Nobody knows me it's how I want to be

It's just a plan which no one believes

I'm not ready for this

I won't ever be

 

You keep calling

I can hear your ever word

It's alright I get through life

With no reaction

Nobody knows me it's how I want to be

It's just a plan which no one believes

I'm not ready for this

I won't ever be

You'll Never Catch Him - Buffalo Tom

 

 

you'll never catch Him

I said, you'll never catch Him

she said, that's what everyone says to me

 

you'll never catch Him

she said, you know you'll never catch Him

you'll run for miles but still you wont believe

 

God moves everywhere

cross your heart and swear

make it easy to do

 

I ran to catch Him

you know I almost caught Him

He wiped out once as he stumbled near the sea

 

I went to face Him

you know I almost heard Him

I had so many questions

but He had to leave

 

God moves everywhere

cross your heart and swear

make it easy to do

find Him inside me

take a look and see

make it easy to do

 

you'll run for miles but you still wont see

you'll never catch Him if you dont believe

dont believe

dont believe...

[[Lo...]]

 

Buffalo Tom - Wiser

 

 

The autumn leaves

Me here without a tooth

You've given me the shaft

My friend's car's breaking down

And I've got no ride home

 

And I'm left out

The apes in the evergreens

The grape leaves and jasmine tea

Comforts you, without me

Without me

 

And I am none the wiser for it all

Your voice is shaky on the telephone call

You ride your little Pinto in the rain

 

And you stall out

With no one to give you a jump

Just hook your cables to me

And then you'll see

That I can start you up

That I can start you up

 

It's closing time in town

There's not a soul around

To see you when you're down

To see you when you're down

 

And I am none the wiser for it all

Your voice is shaky on the telephone call

You ride your little Pinto in the rain

 

When I think of all you've done

Take your Pinto for a run

I see you're the wiser one

You're the wiser one, you're the wiser one

 

When I think of all we've done

And the rain soaks up the sun

I see we're the wiser ones

We're the wiser ones, we're the wiser ones

 

And you know you're beholden

To no one but me

And you know you're beholden

To no one but me

 

Drive back

Drive back

Drive back

Drive back

Drive back

Drive back

[[Lo...]]

Buffalo Tom - Taillights Fade

 

 

Sister can you hear me now

The ringing in your ears

I'm down on the ground

My luck's been dry for years

 

I'm lost in the dark

And I feel like a dinosaur

Broken face and broken hands

I'm a broken man

 

I've hit the wall

I'm about to fall

But I'm closing in on it

I feel so weak

On a losing streak

Watch my taillights fade to black

 

I read a thing about this girl

She was a hermit in her world

Her story was much like mine

She could be my valentine

 

And although we've never met

I won't forget her yet

She cut herself off from her past

Now she's alone at last

 

I feel so sick

Lost love's last licks

But I'm closing down on it

I feel so weak

On a losing streak

Watch my taillights fade to black

 

Lost my life in cheap wine

Now it's quiet time

Cappy dick nor Jesus Christ

Could not help my fate

 

But I'm underneath a gun

I'm singing about my past

Had myself a wonderful thing

But I could not make it last

 

I've hit the wall

I'm about to fall

But I'm closing in on it

I feel so small

Underneath it all

Watch my taillights fade to black

Watch my taillights fade

Watch my taillights fade

Watch my taillights fade

Blake Babies - Brain Damage

 

 

Someone, quick, put something on my mind

Surrounded by the somethings that you said

I've done all the drugs that I can buy

And borrowed all the books I haven't read

Well-worn paths, a glass of warm white wine

Getting older and I'm cutting it too fine

Something about surroundings you once said

The brain damage is all in your head

It's all in your head

Someone, quick, put something on my mind

Surrounded by the somethings that you said

I've done all the drugs that I could find

And borrowed all the books I haven't read

Well-worn paths, a glass of warm white wine

Getting older and I'm cutting it so fine

Something about surroundings you once said

The brain damage is all in your

The brain damage is all in your head

It's all in your head...

Brandon Heath - Give Me Your Eyes

 

 

 

 

Looked down from a broken sky

Traced out by the city lights

My world from a mile high

Best seat in the house tonight

Touched down on the cold black top

Hold on for the sudden stop

Breathe in the familiar shock

Of confusion

And chaos

 

All those people goin' somewhere

Why have I never cared?

 

Give me Your eyes for just one second

Give me Your eyes so I can see

Everything that I keep missing

Give me Your love for humanity

Give me Your arms for the broken-hearted

The ones that are far beyond my reach

Give me Your heart for the ones forgotten

Give me Your eyes so I can see

Yeah

Yeah

Yeah

Yeah

 

Step out on a busy street

See a girl and our eyes meet

Does her best to smile at me

To hide what's underneath

There's a man just to her right

Black suit and a bright red tie

Too ashamed to tell his wife

He's out of work, he's buyin' time

 

All those people goin' somewhere

Why have I never cared?

 

Give me Your eyes for just one second

Give me Your eyes so I can see

Everything that I keep missing

Give me Your love for humanity

Give me Your arms for the broken-hearted

The ones that are far beyond my reach

Give me Your heart for the ones forgotten

Give me Your eyes so I can see

Yeah

Yeah

Yeah

Yeah

 

I've been there a million times

A couple of million eyes

Just move and pass me by

I swear I never thought that I was wrong

Well I want a second glance

So give me a second chance

To see the way You've seen the people all along

 

Give me Your eyes for just one second

Give me Your eyes so I can see

Everything that I keep missing

Give me Your love for humanity

Give me Your arms for the broken-hearted

The ones that are far beyond my reach

Give me Your heart for the ones forgotten

Give me Your eyes so I can see

 

Give me Your Eyes (Give me Your eyes for just one second)

Lord, give me Your eyes (Give me Your eyes so I can see)

Everything (Everything that I keep missing)

(Give me Your love for humanity)

Give me Your heart (Give me Your arms for the broken-hearted)

For the broken hearted (The ones that are far beyond my reach)

Give me Your heart (Give me Your heart for the ones forgotten)

Lord, give me Your eyes (Give me Your eyes so I can see)

Yeah

Yeah

Yeah

Yeah

 

Yeah

Iron and Wine -

 

 

 

 

CALL IT DREAMING // LYRICS:

say its here where our pieces fall in place

any rain softly kisses us on the face

any wind means we’re running

we can sleep and see them coming

where we drift and call it dreaming

we can weep and call it singing

 

where we break when our hearts are strong enough

we can bow because our musics warmer than blood

where we see enough to follow

we can hear when we are hollow

where we keep the light we’re given

we can lose and call it living

 

where the sun isn’t only sinking fast

every night knows how long its supposed to last

where the time of our lives is all we have

and we get a chance to say before we ease away

for all the love you’ve left behind, you can have mine

 

say its here where our pieces fall in place

we can fear because a feelings fine to betray

where our water isn’t hidden

we can burn and be forgiven

where our hands hurt from healing

we can laugh without a reason

 

because the sun isn’t only sinking fast

every moon and our bodies make shining glass

where the time of our lives is all we have

and we get a chance to say before we ease away

for all the love you’ve left behind, you can have mine

Eye of the Tiger

Survivor

Risin' up, back on the street

Did my time, took my chances

Went the distance, now I'm back on my feet

Just a man and his will to survive

So many times, it happens too fast

You trade your passion for glory

Don't lose your grip on the dreams of the past

You must fight just to keep them alive

It's the eye of the tiger, it's the thrill of the fight

Risin' up to the challenge of our rival

And the last known survivor stalks his prey in the night

And he's watchin' us all with the eye of the tiger

Face to face, out in the heat

Hangin' tough, stayin' hungry

They stack the odds 'till we take to the street

For the kill with the skill to survive

It's the eye of the tiger, it's the dream of the fight

Risin' up to the challenge of our rival

And the last known survivor stalks his prey in the night

And he's watchin' us all with the eye of the tiger

Risin' up, straight to the top

Had the guts, got the glory

Went the distance, now I'm not gonna stop

Just a man and his will to survive

It's the eye of the tiger, it's the dream of the fight

Risin' up to the challenge of our rival

And the last known survivor stalks his prey in the night

And he's watchin' us all with the eye of the tiger

The eye of the tiger

The eye of the tiger

The eye of the tiger

The eye of the tiger
