Aroooo, songness.


FREEThe Martinis

    I close my eyes and I turn around
    And leave it all behind
    So free for the moment
    Lost somewhere between the earth and the sky
    So free for the moment
    Lost because I wanna be lost
    Don't try to find me

DROWNSeanan McGuire

    And the waters of the past are deep and cold
    And you can't escape a story that
    You've never once heard told
    And the debts your parents owe are far past due
    When it's time to pay the piper
    All their failings fall to you

THE TRUE STORY HERESeanan McGuire

    They're gnawing bones in the dark of the story
    Bitter hyenas all scavenging scraps
    They're gnawing bones in the foothills of glory
    Victims of hunters and hobbled by traps
    They see a little girl, they look no deeper
    Scavengers never see anything true
    They're weaving prisons that never can keep her
    Blood burns like fire, and it always burns through

GRAVITYA Perfect Circle

    Lost again, broken and weary
    Unable to find my way
    Tail in hand, dizzy and clearly
    Unable to just let this go
    I am surrendering to gravity and the unknown
    Catch me, heal me
    Lift me back up to the sun

LIVING INSIDE OF MELevel

    The moon is shining brightly
    Well I`m pray that I'm not the only one
    Gotta keep my sentimental
    Side so confidential
    Well I'll save it for when all is said and done

THE WORLD BELONGS TO MEMy Darkest Days

    So many roads that I've taken
    When nobody thought I could make it
    And even though I had to go it alone
    I still survived
    When you live in darkness there's always confusion
    Sometimes your mind will provide the illusion
    And your whole life can change in the blink of an eye

VULTURESJohn Mayer

    Wheels up
    I got to leave this evening
    Can't seem to shake these vultures
    Off of my trail
    Power is made, by power being taken
    So I keep on running
    To protect my situation

MOVIN' ONJames Morrison

    Don’t know what I’ll find, who I’ll meet
    But I know I got to keep movin’ on
    Movin’ on, movin’ on
    I’m just like a stone, I keep rollin’, rollin’, rollin’, rollin’
    And no one is gonna slow me down and stop me feeling free
    I’m just like the wind, once you catch me then I’m gone again
    And I say hello goodbye my friend ’cause I know it’s time to leave

SWEET SERENDIPITYLee Dewyze

    I can’t say what’s next
    And I got nothin' up my sleeve
    But I don’t lose my head
    'Cause it ain’t really up to me
    And I’m doing just fine
    I’m always landing on my feet
    In the nick of time
    And by the skin of my teeth
    I ain’t gonna stress
    'Cause the worst ain’t happened yet

KEEP ON MOVINGFive

    Get on up when you're down
    Baby, take a good look around
    I know it's not much, but it's okay
    Keep on moving anyway

AIN'T NOTHING GONNA HOLD ME DOWNMen At Work

    You're on the road and now you pray you'll last
    The road behind you was rocky
    But now you're feeling cocky
    You look at me and you'll see your past
    Is that the reason you're running so fast

HOWLFlorence + The Machine

    If you could only see the beast you've made of me
    I held it in but now it seems you've set it running free
    The saints can't help me now, the ropes have been unbound
    I hunt for you with bloody feet across the hollow ground
    Drag my teeth across your chest to taste your beating heart

ROAD TRIPPIN'Red Hot Chili Peppers

    Fully loaded we got snacks and supplies
    It's time to leave this town
    It's time to steal away
    Let's go get lost
    Anywhere in the U.S.A.

OH! SWEET NUTHIN'Velvet Undergronud

    Say a word for Polly May
    She can't tell the night from the day
    They threw her out in the street
    But just like a cat she landed on her feet

KINGDOM OF RUSTDoves

    I hear a sound, a sound above my head
    Distant sound of thunder, moving out on the moor
    Blackbirds flew in and to the cooling towers
    I'll pack my bags
    Thinking of one of those hours
    With you, waiting for you

I GO TO EXTREMESBilly Joel

    Either I'm wrong or I'm perfectly right every time
    Sometimes I lie awake, night after night
    Coming apart at the seams
    Eager to please, ready to fight
    Why do I go to extremes

WHEN I'M GONEAni DiFranco

    And I won't breathe the bracing air when I'm gone
    And I can't even worry 'bout my cares when I'm gone
    Won't be asked to do my share when I'm gone
    So I guess I'll have to do it while I'm here

ALL YOU NEED IS NOWDuran Duran

    Everybody's gunning
    For the VIP section
    But you're better up and running
    In another direction
    With your bones in the flow
    Cold shadow on the vine
    But your lashes let it shine

DOG DAYS ARE OVERFlorence + The Machine

    She hid around corners and she hid under beds
    She killed it with kisses and from it she fled

I MOVE ONCatherine Zeta-Jones & Renee Zellweger

    While truckin' down the road of life, although all hope seems gone
    I just move on
    When I can't find a single star to hang my wish upon, I just move on
    I move on
    I run so fast, a shotgun blast can hurt me not one bit
    I'm on my toes 'cause heaven knows a moving target's hard to hit

UNCHARTEDSara Bareilles

    Each day, I'm countin' up the minutes till I get alone
    'Cause I can't stay in the middle of it all
    It's nobody's fault, but I'm so low
    Never knew how much I didn't know
    Oh, everything is uncharted

TITLE AND REGISTRATIONDeath Cab For Cutie

    The glove compartment is inaccurately named
    And everybody knows it
    So I'm proposing a swift orderly change
    'Cause behind its door there's nothing to keep my fingers warm
    And all I find are souvenirs from better times
    Before the gleam of your tail lights fading east
    To find yourself a better life

TALKING IN CODEMargot & The Nuclear So-And-Sos

    I'm long gone
    And I'm sleeping alone
    In this house I don't own
    'Cause if you're touring your mind
    You'll get lost every time

PULL ME OUTBebo Norman

    Tell me now, when does this start feeling
    Like I understand everything I'm dealing with
    First I was young, now it's all just happening
    And what about the way I said that
    Made you turn around and shake your head
    Like I don't even know what I'm asking for
    Well, this could be all about just letting go
    Or this could be all about just holding on

COMPASS ROSEChris Pureka

    Well, I'm lost today
    I won’t deny it
    I’m going to lay down
    And wait for the compass rose
    Under my skin to start to glow
    But look how the sun has painted the trees
    All these colors never known to them
    Colors never known to their leaves
    I’d like to sing like that

GOStray Palace

    It's a perfect world
    Full of perfect people
    Don't believe your eyes
    So run and find yourself
    You don't need a reason
    Other than surprise

ROOTLESSMarina & the Diamonds

    Work your fingers to the bone
    Building castles out of snow
    I'm a nomad walking on
    Humming to the same old song
    Lower case society
    Tied to no community
    A kingdom without a king
    With no sense of belonging

HOWLBlack Rebel Motorcycle Club

    I don't wanna be sad, I don't wanna be sad
    I don't wanna be scared, I don't wanna be scared
    I don't wanna decide, I don't wanna decide
    I see the road is hard, I see the road is hard
    I won't wait for you in silence, I won't wait for you in silence

NAMEGoo Goo Dolls

    'Cause all the dreams you never thought you'd lose
    Got tossed along the way
    And letters that you never meant to send
    Got lost or thrown away
    And now we're grown up orphans
    And never knew their names
    We don't belong to no one
    That's a shame
