// timber timbre. demon host.

i was on the fence and i never wanted your two cents
down my throat in the pit, with my head upon the spit
oh reverend please can I chew your ear?
i have become what I most fear
and i know there's no such thing as ghosts
but i have seen the demon host.

always adrift, our trips to make
the night won't break if the day wont break
when i was out, did you get in?
did you draw the bright stuff on your skin?

// teitur. the girl i don't know.

i'm in love with a girl I don't know.
i carry her with me wherever I go.

they are selling flowers on the square.

i hit another wall.

// de leon with os mutantes. almond trees.

// clara luzia. queen of the wolves.

for ways to remove all the bad that we do
from the heart and the soul of the city, sad and cold
for ways to collect what we say and what we save
to discard and discover a brand new way.

// the holidays. mexico.

// keegan dewitt. complicated.

weightless you drift in the emptiness lifting above
once you did call him now you call to this love.
you stand in the evening and speak to me leaving alone
you sing to the winter's sorrowed and fleeting tone.
i know i won't, i said i won't, you know i won't hurt you.

// paolo nutini. coming up easy.

sunday morning, got the hazy, hazy janes,
i turn to you and inhale where you lay.
took a wander through the garden,
to await the long, long day
and then roll for a while on a violet flowerbed.
coming up easy.

// the twilight sad. i became a prostitute.

you are the bearer of a womb without love
you could have had it all.

you said in your hands you'll stay, all with me today.
i became a prostitute.

// cherbourg. man.

man.

// liam finn + eliza jane. long way to go.

// jeremy warmsley. the boat song.

caught a glimpse of your sail so wide
i tried to signal but you sailed on by
was it a ghost or a trick of the light?
or are you sleeping in the ocean tonight?

// say hi. one, two ... one.

well i racked my brain and i doubled back,
but i still got nothing.

no no.
'cause i could never see how
someone as soft and sweet as you could ever be with me.
one, two ... one.

until each world is born anew.

i'm rotten to the core, sice 1994.
you saved my life.

// glasvegas. it's my own cheating heart that makes me cry.

oh i'm so clever, i'm so clever, i'm so clever
until my paranoia kicks in then i'll accuse her
of doing all the worst things i do best.
its funny how me fucking her about
has got me in this fucking mess.
it's my own cheating heart that makes me cry.

// we are wolves. holding hands.

// tommy reilly. jackets.

i think tonight this could be nice.
and I'm falling down on this judgement

close enough to be your ghost.
but my chances turned to toast
when I asked her if
i could call her your name.
cornerstone.

// motorama. pine.

// frightened rabbit. swim until you can't see land.

dip the toe in the ocean. oh how it hardens and it numbs.
and the rest of me is a burgeoned man, built to collapse into crumbs.
and if i hadn't come down to the coast to disappear
i may have died in a land-slide of the rocks, the hopes and fears.
so swim until you can't see land.

// jemina pearl feat. iggy pop. i hate people.

another lonely night
i think if i'm lucky i'll get into a fight.
i hate everything i see
it's a different city with the same old scene.
a waste of space.
oh i, i hate people.
and you, you do too.

// breathe owl breathe. boat.

do you remember when we were dancing
on a boat, on the sea
and it would tip, and we weren't scared.

bye bye for now. and leaves you.
i see you.

// mewithoutyou. the fox, the crow and the cookie.

i got a walnut brownie brain
and molasses in my veins.

my powdered sugared funnel cake cocaine.

// thao with the get down stay down. when we swam.

when we swam our love to pieces

// i concur. sobotka.

while you wait for the others
to make it all worthwhile,
all your useless pretensions

while you wait for the others.

// killed by 9v batteries. this city is lit when you're on top of it.

// olli schulz. so lange einsam.

ich lief herum, es wurde dunkler
in meiner hand brannte ein licht.
ich war verwirrt, doch auch erleichtert
ab heute brauch ich nur noch mich.
denn man ist lange einsam
bis man lernt allein zu sein.

// alexander wolfe. till your ship comes in.

did someone take their eyes off you?
did someone dig a hole?
did someone take the love from you?
is it too hard to let it go?
so dance and sing 'till your ship comes in.

// los campesinos. these are listed buildings.

come on midnight, you commandeer a fishing boat
that creed adrift further than we can swim.

create your own flash zone security lights.

// french horn rebellion. up all night.

// the hickey underworld. blonde fire.

don't let me walk out the door.

// the break mission. come by.

// lawrence arabia. apple pie bed.

apple pie bed.

// octoberman. thirty reasons.

when we both got something stuck inside our throats.
thirty reasons.

// bosse. tanz mit mir.

komm schon und tanz mit mir.

was bringt dich aus dem takt? wer bricht in deine nacht?
zieh deine regenjacke aus!

// slow club. trophy room.

it turns out you just want to be my friend.

forming an orderly queue
outside your house.
