” Dig Down”

Muse

 

 

"Dig Down"

 

When hope and love has been lost

And you fall to the ground

You must find a way

When the darkness descends

And you're told it's the end

You must find a way

When God decides to look the other way

And a clown takes the throne

We must find a way

Face the firing squad

Against all the odds

You will find a way

 

Dig down

Dig down

Dig down

And find faith

When you're close to the edge

With a gun to your head

You must find a way

 

When friends are thin on the ground

And they try to divide us

We must find a way

We have entered the fray

And we will not obey

We must find a way

Yeah

 

Dig down

Dig down

Dig down

And find faith

When they've left you for dead

(Dig down)

And you can only see red

(Dig down)

You must find a way

 

Dig down

Dig down

Dig down

Find faith

We won't let them divide

(Dig down)

We will never abide

(Dig down)

We will find a way

 

Dig down

Dig down

Dig down

Faith

Dig down

Dig down

Faith

”Who I’m Meant To Be”

Anthem Lights

 

 

"Who I'm Meant To Be"

 

Everyday I run a race

Just trying to get ahead

Don't think about where I am now

Just where I want to be instead

I'm losing so much precious time

But will I be satisfied in the end

Oh, in the end

 

I don't wanna spend my life

Trying to fight for what's not mine

I don't wanna lose myself

In someone else's dream

I know I was made with a purpose

To reach past the surface

To live life fearlessly

I want nothing less

Than to be who I'm meant to be

 

Everyone is on their way

But I am standing still

Comparing my behind the scenes

Against their highlight reel

I'm burning so much energy

Won't let it keep

Distracting me anymore

 

I don't wanna spend my life

Trying to fight for what's not mine

I don't wanna lose myself

In someone else's dream

I know I was made with a purpose

To reach past the surface

To live life fearlessly

I want nothing less

Than to be who I'm meant to be

 

Nothing less than

Who I'm meant to be

Live life with purpose

Reach past the surface

It's who I'm meant to be

 

I don't wanna spend my life

Trying to fight for what's not mine

I don't wanna lose myself

In someone else's dream

I know I was made with a purpose

To reach past the surface

To live life fearlessly

I want nothing less

I want nothing less

Than to be who I'm meant to be

”Leave The War With Me”

London Grammar

 

 

"Leave The War With Me"

 

Fair game, go on and drop your head

Feathers gone and make you lose mine

Losing love all over again

But it's my way 'till the end of time

Let's tread when I drop my head

Fear going, let me lose mine

I'm losing love all over again

But it's my way 'till the end of time

 

And where do we go?

And I'm leaning towards

Losing my mind with this feeling no more

 

Ooh, better leave that war with me

Ooh, better leave that war with me

Ooh, better leave that war with me

Ooh, better leave that war with me

 

Fair trials, they don't exist my friend

Only a circus in my mind

Judgement's gone and there's no love again

But it's my way 'till the end of time

 

Where do we go?

And I'm leaning towards

Losing my mind and I'm feeling no more

 

Ooh, better leave that war with me

Ooh, better leave that war with me

Ooh, better leave that war with me

Ooh, better leave that war with me

”All My Tears”

Ane Brun

 

 

"All My Tears"

 

When I go don't cry for me

In my fathers arms I'll be

The wounds this world left on my soul

Will all be healed and I'll be whole

Sun and moon will be replaced

With the light of Jesus' face

And I will not be ashamed

For my savior knows my name

It don't matter where you bury me

I'll be home and I'll be free

It don't matter where I lay

All my tears be washed away

Gold and silver blind the eye

Temporary riches lie

Come and eat from heaven's store

Come and drink and thirst no more

So weep not for me my friend

When my time below does end

For my life belongs to him

Who will raise the dead again

It don't matter where you bury me

I'll be home and I'll be free

It don't matter where I lay

All my tears be washed away

” Carry You”

Novo Amor

 

 

"Carry You"

 

Torn down, full of aching

Somehow our youth would take the blame

Worn out, the way we let it stay

 

Taught how to celebrate it

All out, I'd replicate your pain

Climb down, if only for a taste

 

Hallowed, but hesitated

Shallow, but full in all your veins

Shadowed by every other weight

 

Hollow, a doubt can make it

Borrowed a love that never came

Followed in every other shade

 

Let it lead your love away

I never strayed

Let it bury you away

In all your blame, in all your pain

I will carry you always

 

Let it lead your love away

I never strayed

Let it bury you away

 

Fade me away, I won't ever be the same

Fade me away, I won't ever be the same

Fade me away, I won't ever be the same

 

 

 

❤️❤️❤️

Disappear - INXS

 

 

Say I'm crying

I'm looking at what's on TV

Pain and suffering

And the struggle to be free

 

It can't ever be denied and I

Never will ignore

But when I see you coming

I can take it all

 

You're so fine

Lose my mind

And the world seems to disappear

All the problems, all the fears

And the world seems to disappear

 

Say you're mine

And give yourself to the

Feelings that you know

I'm needing

All that you can give me

All the things

That you do so well

 

Words are healing

Sweet anticipation

Making spells

As the shadows close in

Fall across all our yesterdays

 

You're so fine

Lose my mind

And the world seems to disappear

All the problems, all the fears

And the world seems to disappear

 

Say if I could

Look into myself and reason

But I could never never see or

Make sense of the dealings

 

Turn around

Am I looking at salvation

Make me realize all that I am

You put the light inside this man

 

You're so fine

Lose my mind

And the world seems to disappear

All the problems, all the fears

And the world seems to disappear

If I Can Dream - Elvis Presley

 

 

There must be lights burning brighter somewhere

Got to be birds flying higher in a sky more blue

If I can dream of a better land

Where all my brothers walk hand in hand

Tell me why, oh why, oh why can't my dream come true?

 

There must be peace and understanding sometime

Strong winds of promise that will blow away all the doubt and fear

If I can dream of a warmer sun

Where hope keeps shining on everyone

Tell me why, oh why, oh why won't that sun appear?

 

We're lost in a cloud with too much rain

We're trapped in a world that's troubled with pain

But as long as a wo/man has the strength to dream

S/he can redeem her/his soul and fly

 

Deep in my heart there's a trembling question

Still I am sure that the answer's gonna come somehow

Out there in the dark, there's a beckoning candle

And while I can think

While I can talk

While I can stand

While I can walk

While I can dream

Please let my dream come true right now

Let it come true right now

"Worn Out Blues" - Gotye

 

There were days when I would say

I could give you everything

And I truly believed that I could

 

But now I'm worn out

Now I'm worn out

Now I'm worn out

Now I'm worn out

"My Friends"

The Head and the Heart

 

There's no such thing as love

There's no such thing as God

There's no such this as you

There's no such thing as us

 

And tell me, friends

When I'm down

Would you pick me up

My friends, my friends

 

If everyone had rights

Would anything go wrong

Would there ever be the need

For these politician songs

 

And tell me, friends

When I'm down

Would you pick me up, my friends

Would you pick me up, my friends

My friends

 

I slipped into a cave one day

I never thought I'd leave that place

When I woke up the sky had fallen down

And oh, what a waste

And oh, what a waste

 

Lord, help me right all of the wrongs

That I have done and never meant to do

Lord, help me right all of the wrongs

That I have done, you know I've done a few

 

And tell me, friends

When I'm down

Would you pick me up, my friends

Would you pick me up, my friends

Would you pick me up, my friends

My friends, my friends, my friends

 

I slipped into a cave one day

I never thought I'd leave that place

When I woke up the sky had fallen down

 

Our thoughts are written on our face

We try to run and change our fate

But time will always catch us in disguise

 

Oh, I hear you lost your head again

Oh boy, looks like old days are here to stay

My friends, my friends

"Tick Tock" - The Vaughan Brothers

 

One night while sleeping in my bed

I had a beautiful dream

That all the people of the world

Got together on the same wavelength

And began helping one another

Now in this dream

Universal love was the theme of the day

Peace and understanding

And it happened this way

 

The sick and the hungry had smiles on their faces

The tired and the homeless had family all around

The streets and the cities were all beautiful places

And the walls came tumbling down

 

People of the world all had it together

Had it together for the boys and the girls

And the children of the world look forward to a future

 

[CHORUS:]

Remember

Tick tock, tick tock, tick tock, people

Time's ticking away

Remember that

Tick tock, tick tock, tick tock, people

Time's ticking away

 

I had a vision of blue skies from sea to shining sea

All the trees in the forest stood strong and tall again

Everything was clean and pretty and safe for you and me

The worst of enemies became the best of friends

 

People of the world all had it together

Had it together for the boys and the girls

Children of the world look forward to a future

 

[CHORUS]

 

Time, time keeps on keeping on

Remember that

Time, time keeps on keeping on

Remember that

Time, time keeps on keeping on

Remember that

Time's ticking away

Remember that

 

People of the world all had it together

Had it together for the boys and the girls

Children of the world look forward to a future

 

Remember

Tick tock, tick tock, tick tock, people

Time's ticking away

Remember that

Tick tock, tick tock, tick tock, people

Time's ticking away

 

Remember

Tick tock, tick tock, tick tock, people

Time's ticking away

 

Keep on keeping on

Keep on keeping on

Keep on keeping on

"Feed the Birds (Tuppence a Bag)"

Julie Andrews

 

Early each day to the steps of Saint Paul's

The little old bird woman comes

In her own special way to the people she calls

Come buy my bags full of crumbs

 

Come feed the little birds

Show them you care

And you'll be glad if you do

Their young ones are hungry

Their nests are so bare

All it takes is tuppence from you

 

Feed the birds

Tuppence a bag

Tuppence, tuppence, tuppence a bag

Feed the birds

That's what she cries

While overhead her birds fill the skies

 

All around the cathedral the saints and apostles

Look down as she sells her wares

Although you can't see it

You know they are smiling

Each time someone shows that he cares

 

Though her words are simple and few

Listen, listen, she's calling to you

Feed the birds

Tuppence a bag

Tuppence, tuppence, tuppence a bag

(x2)

"Us" - James Bay

 

http://www.ecns.cn/travel/2018/04-04/U542P886T1D298114F137DT20180404110716.jpg

 

Sometimes I'm beaten

Sometimes I'm broke

Cause sometimes this city

Is nothing but smoke

 

Is there a secret

Is there a code

Can we make it better

Cause I'm losing hope

 

Tell me how to be in this world

Tell me how to breathe in and feel no hurt

Tell me how cause I believe in something

I believe in us

 

After the wreckage

After the dust

I still hear the howling

I still feel the rush

 

Over the riots

Above all the noise

Through all the worry

I still hear your voice

 

Tell me how to be in this world

Tell me how to breathe in and feel no hurt

Tell me how cause I believe in something

I believe in us

 

Tell me when the light goes down

That even in the dark we will find a way out

Tell me now cause I believe in something

I believe in us

 

We used to be kids

Living just for kicks

In cinema seats

Learning how to kiss

 

Running through streets

They were painted gold

We never believed

We'd grow up like this

 

Tell me how to be in this world

Tell me how to breathe in and feel no hurt

Tell me how cause I believe in something

I believe in us

 

Tell me when the light goes down

That even in the dark we will find a way out

Tell me now cause I believe in something

I believe in us

 

I believe in something

I believe in us

"There's a Storm a Comin'"

Richard Hawley

 

There's a storm a comin'

You'd better run

There's a storm a comin'

Goodbye to the sun

There's a storm a comin'

You'd better run, boy, run

You'd better run

 

There's a ship that's sailin'

Out in the night

There's a heart that's breakin'

I think it's mine

There's a storm a comin'

You'd better run, boy, run

You'd better run

 

Every little part of you

Is a miracle of molecules

And every little thing you do

Is so sad in the end

Oh, in the end

 

There's a ship that's sailin'

Out in the night

There's a heart that's breakin'

I think it's mine

There's a storm a comin'

You'd better run, boy, run

You'd better run

"Rise Again" - Brandi Carlile

 

When I find the sweet hereafter

Put a blanket on my soul

Cast a shadow on my heart

Slide the chain across my door

 

Ever turning of the seasons

Ever fading of the days

And if there ever was a reason

I just haven't found the way

 

To fall like the rain

Fall like rain

Fall like rain

Fall like rain

Only to rise again

 

I was longing for the wind

When the trees began to sway

But I never grow my wings

No, I'll never fly away

 

For the anchor of my love

To which my heart is bound

Is the iron for the cage

That keeps me on the ground

 

Fall like the rain

Fall like rain

Fall like rain

Fall like rain

Only to rise again

 

Now I'm dreaming to myself

With a tear behind my eye

For a shelter is my mind

In the quiet of the night

 

Ever turning of the seasons

Ever fading of the days

And if there ever was a reason

I just haven't found a way

 

To fall like the rain

Fall like rain

Fall like rain

Fall like rain

Only to rise again

"The Littlest Birds"

The Be Good Tanyas

 

Well, I feel like an old hobo

I'm sad, lonesome, and blue

I was fair as a summer's day

And now the summer days are through

 

You pass through places

And places pass through you

But you carry them with you

On the soles of your traveling shoes

 

Well, I love you so dearly

I love you so clearly

I wake you up in the morning so early

Just to tell you

 

I got the wandering blues

I got the wandering blues

And I'm going to quit these rambling ways

One of these days soon

 

And I'll sing

The littlest birds sing the prettiest songs

The littlest birds sing the prettiest songs

The littlest birds sing the prettiest songs

The littlest birds sing the prettiest songs

 

Well, it's times like these

I feel so small and wild

Lke the rambling footsteps

Of a wandering child

 

And I'm lonesome as a lonesome whippoorwill

Singing these blues

With a warble and a trill

But I'm not too blue to fly

No, I'm not too blue to fly

 

Cause the littlest birds sing the prettiest songs

The littlest birds sing the prettiest songs

The littlest birds sing the prettiest songs

The littlest birds sing the prettiest songs

 

But I love you so dearly

I love you so fearlessly

I wake you up in the morning so early

Just to tell you

 

I've got the wandering blues

I've got the wandering blues

And I don't want to leave

I love you through and through

 

Well, I left my baby

On a pretty blue train

And I sang my songs

To the cold and the rain

 

I had the wandering blues

And I sang those wandering blues

And I'm gonna quit these rambling ways

One of these days soon

 

And I'll sing

The littlest birds sing the prettiest songs

The littlest birds sing the prettiest songs

The littlest birds sing the prettiest songs

The littlest birds sing the prettiest songs

The littlest birds sing the prettiest songs

The littlest birds sing the prettiest songs

 

 

Well, I don't care if the sun don't shine

I don't care if nothing is mine

I don't care if I'm nervous with you

I'll do my loving in the wintertime

"Raise a Voice"

Crosby, Stills & Nash

 

We're all on our own

So look at us all

How can we not raise a voice

Against the madness

 

There isn't the time

To wonder or wait

Cause only the young

Can carry the weight

And face the silence

 

Do we run

Do we stop

Do we lie down

I think not

There's an answer

That we've got

We are not helpless

 

The vision will stand

As blindness will fall

Now we must look for the light

In the darkness

 

Do we run

Do we stop

Do we lie down

I think not

There's an answer

That we've got

We are not helpless

No, no, no

"As I Lay Me Down" - Sophie B. Hawkins

 

4ba5a16ba9bdd83d1391ecc50d8fbc35v1_max_755x425_b3535db83dc50e27c1bb1392364c95a2.jpg?key=ae0ddd

 

It felt like springtime on this February morning

In a courtyard birds were singing your praise

I'm still recalling things you said to make me feel alright

I carried them with me today

 

[CHORUS:]

Now as I lay me down to sleep

This I pray

That you will hold me dear though I'm far away

I'll whisper your name into the sky

And I will wake up happy

 

I wonder why I feel so high

Though I am not above the sorrow

Heavy hearted till you call my name

And it sounds like church bells

Or the whistle of a train on a summer evening

I'll run to meet you barefoot barely breathing

 

[CHORUS]

(x2)

 

It's not too near for me, like a flower I need the rain

Though it's not clear to me, every season has its change

And I will see you when the sun comes out again

 

As I lay me down to sleep

This I pray

That you will hold me dear though I'm far away

I'll whisper your name into the sky

And I will wake up happy

(x2)

 

I wonder why

 

When the sun comes out again

When the sun comes out again

When the sun comes out again

 

I will wake up happy

This I pray

That you will hold me

My baby, hold me

Lone Justice - Ways to be Wicked

 

 

Honey, why you always smile

When you see me hurt so bad

Tell me what I did to you, babe

That could make you act like that

 

Well, I've been your fool before, honey

Yeah and I probably will again

'Cause you ain't afraid to let me have it

No, you ain't afraid to stick it in

 

Well, you know so many

Ways to be wicked

Oh, but you don't know one little thing about love

 

I can take a little pain

Yeah, I can hold it pretty well

I can watch your little eyes light up

While you're walking me through hell

 

Well, I've been your fool before, honey

Yeah, I probably will again

'Cause you ain't afraid to let me have it

No, you ain't afraid to stick it in

 

Well you know so many

Ways to be wicked

But you don't know one little thing about love

"Doors of Heaven" - Lucinda Williams

 

Open up the doors of heaven

Let me in

I think I'm finally tired of living

Let me in

I'm gonna walk in the glory

And tell everyone my story

Open up the doors of heaven

Let me in

 

I try to live my life in a righteous way

I try to do my best from day to day

But no matter how hard I try

It seems all I'll do is cry

So open up the doors of heaven

Let me in

 

Someone told me there's a better place than this

Where I can go and receive my mother's kiss

A place so full of love somewhere up above

So open up the doors of heaven

Let me inside

 

I hear them say that this life is a gift

That it's precious as a baby's breath

Well they can talk to a door

When my time has come

Open up the doors of heaven

Let me in

 

Open up the doors of heaven

Let me in

I think I'm finally tired of living

Let me in

I'm gonna walk in the glory

And tell everyone my story

Open up the doors of heaven

Let me in

 

Open up the doors of heaven

Let me in

Open up the doors of heaven

Let me in

Open up the doors of heaven

Let me in

Open up the doors of heaven

Let me in
