| Sufjan Stevens – All for Myself Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
Just a couple changes, I think it's the wrong bare, I think he's talking about bear, to endure. And the other tiny change in shoulder blade, not shoulder blades. To bear it down to be in flight, to bear it down to be in flight It wasn't about me it was only a stone in my shoe Then worries came to perch on us Impatience and a painted bust I kept you close to me close to my ear We set out once with folded shirts, with hairy chests and well rehearsed I want it all, I want it all for myself I'll set it right between your eyes Your shoulder blade, your running knife I want it all, I want it all for myself Improving all the time, I am Improving as I kiss the hem I promise I won't be a trouble at all For I'm okay, I'm in the red Impressions of the unmade bed You cradled close to me, close to my ear We set out once forget our shirts with hairy chests and well rehearsed I want it all I want it all for myself Out in the earth I smell of you Of bathing boy, amazing you I want it all, I want it all for myself |

Just a couple little corrections. Still not sure on that "Shake your faith to steal" line. Grab some grapes and leaves, man You can never tell When you'll have to change your face And hide your trophies well Coming down the mountain Or going to your home The village has evacuated Now you gotta roam Your feet could start to moan And your eyes don't see too clear The darkest dreams could come And shake your faith to steal Remember the sun All from memory Close your eyes and run circles Round' its enemies Remember the sun Before you awake Remember all the reasons And bake it into your cake And then we'll all come over Bring the coconut flakes We're gonna get stoned with ya And laugh at your mistakes I know its been hard to take And I know you wanna run But just try to stay in one place And have a little fun I know its been hard to take And I know you wanna run But just try to stay in one place And dance before it's done |

| Margot & the Nuclear So and So's – Broadripple Is Burning Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
Children, Broadripple is burning And the girls are getting sick Off huffing glue up in the bathroom While your boyfriends pick up chicks And darling, I'm lost I heard you whispering that night in Fountain Square The trash-filled streets made me wish we were headed home And there was love inside the basement Where that woman used to lie In a sleeping bag we shared Upon the floor most every night And darling, I'm drunk And everything that I have loved has turned to stone So pack your bags And come back home And I'm wasted You can taste it Don't look at me that way 'Cause I'll be hanging from a rope I will haunt you like a ghost And if my woman was a fire She'd burn out before I wake And be replaced by pints of whiskey Cigarettes and outer space Then somebody moves And everything you thought you had will go to shit But we've got a lot Don't ever forget that And I wrote this on an airplane Where the people looked like eggs And when a woman that you loved is gone She was bombing east Japan And don't fucking move 'Cause everything you think you have will go to shit But we've got a lot Don't you dare forget that And I'm wasted You can taste it Don't look at me that way 'Cause I'll be hanging from a rope I will haunt you like a ghost |
