I'm alone
Sitting with my empty glass
My four walls
Follow me through my past
I was on a Paris train
I emerged in London rain
And you were waiting there
Swimming through apologies

I remember searching for the perfect words
I was hoping you might change your mind
I remember a soldier sleeping next to me
Riding on the Metro

You wore white
smiling as you took my hand
so removed
we spoke of wintertime in France
minutes passed with shallow words
years have passed and still the hurt
I can see you now
smiling as I pulled away

I remember a letter wrinkled in my hand
"I'll love you always" filled my eyes
I remember a night we walked along the seine
Riding on the Metro

I remember a feeling coming over me
The soldier turned, then looked away
I remember hating you for loving me
Riding on The Metro

I'm alone
Sitting with my broken glass
My four walls
Follow me through my past
I was on a Paris train
I emerged in London rain
And you were waiting there
Swimming through apologies
(Sorry asshole)

I remember searching for the perfect words
I was hoping you might change your mind
I remember a soldier sleeping next to me
Riding on the Metro

That's my favorite stripes album....and that's saying a lot since I'd give my immortal soul for 5 min in the dark with Good ol' Jack.
Death Letter is the best on the album, imho closely followed by Hello Operator and Why Can't You Be Nicer To Me.

Radiohead - Thinking about you.


Been thinking about you
Your records are here
Your eyes are on my wall
Your teeth are over there
But I'm still no one
And you're my star
What do you care?

Been thinking about you
And there's no rest
Should I still love you
Still see you in bed
But I'm playing with myself
What do you care?
When the other men are far far better

All the things you've got
All the things you need
Who bought you cigarettes
Who bribed the company to come and see you honey?

I've been thinking about you
So how can you sleep
These people aren't your friends
They're paid to kiss your feet
They don't know what I know
And why should you care
When I'm not there

Been thinking about you
And there's no rest
Should I still love you
Still see you in bed
But I'm playing with myself
What do you care?
When the other men are far far better

All the things you've got
She'll never need
All the things you've got
I've bled and I'd bleed to please you

Been thinking about you

Ginuwine - In those Jeans


Looking good plenty time
Tell me is there any more room for me
In those jeans
Pretty thick like I like it
Tell me
is there any more room for me
In those jeans
Looking tasty really scrumptious
Tell me is there any more room for me

In those jeans
Looking good plenty time
Is there any more room for me
In those jeans

[Verse 1]
Got on my ride seen you from a far
And I couldn't stop myself from looking hard
You wore these jeans
Girl you wore
these jeans and you
Made a thug wanna cry something terrible
I had to have, have you for myself baby
You don't know
what those jeans do to me
Make me wanna get down on one knee
You got that thunder
And it only makes me wonder how it
feels
To get up in those jeans
Oh those jeans

[Chorus]

[Verse 2]
You are the bomb
Girl you tight to death
I don't know the words to say to you
All that i know, baby all i know is
that
I'm loving what I see and I'm feeling you
I wanna know, all I wanna know is if
I could have what's up in those
jeans
Baby can I have what's up in those jeans
Don't get alarmed cause I don't mean no harm
But I love the way you
wear those jeans
Levis, Prada, BabyPhat, I love them
Love the way you, wearing them I love them can
Calvin, Iceberg,
Sergio, I love them
Trying to get inside of those
Yeah Yeah Yeah

[Chorus]

[Verse 3]
I wanna say that them jeans looking good fitting right
Baby damn those jeans
Any kind doesn't matter you could win 'em
you look fine
Baby damn those jeans
Anytime that I see you I want in, you wear them well
Baby damn those jeans
You
the shit you the bomb
All I wanna know is can I have what's in those jeans
Can I get in those can I baby

"The Proposition", a film soundtrack by Nick Cave and Warren Ellis for Nick's feature screenwriting debut. It's absolutely fantastic music, even if the movie turns out to be crap.

Everybody Got Their Something
~Nikka Costa

My face to the sky
Dreaming about just how high
I could go and if I'll know
When I finally get there

Taking off my glasses
Sun pokes through my lashes
And somehow I know
There's a time for every star to shine

Everybody got their something
Make you smile like an itty bitty child
Everybody got their something
Everybody got their something
Hey hey

People keeping score
So you better hurry up and get yours
Cause somebody else get your spot
Before you even dropped

Seek and you shall find
Everything in my own sweet time
I'll take my chances
With what I believe is only mine

Busy holding on
So the roof don't fly
Keep you from moving on
So get it right
Turn the tide over
Like a love song
Like a butterfly
Believe it if you hand it over
You'll come out all right

Everybody got their something
Make you smile like an itty bitty child
Everybody got their something
Everybody got their something
Hey hey

Illuminate the silly things
Shed some light on all that's wrong
Everybody need it sometime
Sometimes the only thing you got
Is what makes you feel like
You're something else altogether
You have everything don't need
Another reason to be something
I've been on a ride
And caught up in the landslide
But I'm gonna spread my wings and fly...

Everybody got their something
Everybody got their something
Make you smile like an itty bitty child
Everybody got their something
Everybody got their something
Hey hey

There's a time for every star
There's a time for every star...
