Amanda Palmer - Runs In The Family


My friend has problems with winter and autumn
They give him prescriptions,
They shine bright lights on him
They say it's genetic,
They say he can't help it
They say you can catch it
But sometimes you're born with it

My friend has blight
He gets shakes in the night
And they say there is no way
That they could have caught it in
Time takes its toll on him, it is traditional
It is inherited predisposition

All day I've been wondering
What is inside of me,
Who can I blame for it?

I say
It runs in the family,
This famine that carries me
To such great lengths
To open my legs
Up to anyone who'll have me
It runs in the family,
I come by it honestly
Do what you want
'Cause who knows
It might fill me up [echoes]
Fill me up [echoes]

My friend's depressed,
She's a wreck, she's a mess
They've done all sorts of tests and
They guess it has something to do
With her grandmother's grandfather's grandmother
Civil war soldiers who
Badly infected her

My friend has maladies, rickets, and allergies
That she dates back to the 17th century
Somehow she manages, in her misery -
Strips in the city
And shares all her best tricks with

Me?
Well, I'm well.
Well, I mean I'm in hell.
Well, I still have my health
(At least that's what they tell me)
If wellness is this, what in hell's name is sickness?
But business is business!

And business
Runs in the family, we tend to bruise easily
Bad in the blood, I'm telling you 'cause
I just want you to know me
Know me and my family
We're wonderful folks but
Don't get too close to me
'Cause you might knock me up [echoes]
Knock me up [echoes]

Mary have mercy.
Now look what I've done
But don't blame me because
I can't help where I come from
And running is something that we've always done
Well and mostly I can't even tell what I'm running from

Run from their pity
From responsibility
Run from the country
And run from the city

I can run from the law
I can run from myself
I can run for my life
I can run into debt

I can run from it all
I can run till I'm gone
I can run for the office
And run from the 'cause

I can run using every
Last ounce of energy
I cannot
I cannot

I cannot
Run from my family
They're hiding inside me
Corpses on ice
Come in if you'd like
But just don't tell my family
They'd never forgive me
They say that I'm crazy
But they would say anything
If it would shut me up
Shut me up

Shut me up [echoes]
Shut me up [echoes]

I feel like this whole album (Marina & the Diamonds - The Family Jewels) is like a concept soundtrack to Shaan's development and the Question of Lineage plotline this year.

Marina & the Diamonds - Mowgli's Road

Cuckoo (cuckoo)
Cuckoo (cuckoo)
Cuckoo (cuckoo)
Cuckoo (cuckoo)

Ten silver spoons coming after me,
One life with one dream on repeat.
I'll escape if I try hard enough,
'Til King of the Jungle calls my bluff

Oh Lord (Oh Lord)
I have been told (I have been told)
That I must take the unforsaken road (forsaken road)
There's a fork in the road
I'll do as I am told
And I don't know, don't know, don't know, don't know
Who-oo-oo-oo-ooo I want to be

Cuckoo (cuckoo)
Cuckoo (cuckoo)
Cuckoo (cuckoo, cuckoo)

You say Y-E-S to everything
Will that guarantee you a win?
Do you think you will be good enough
To love others and to be loved?

Oh Lord (Oh Lord),
Now I can see (now I can see)
The cutlery will keep on chasing me (forsaken road)
There's a fork in the road
I'll do as I am told
And I don't know, don't know, don't know, don't know
Who-oo-oo-oo-ooo I want to be.

We are the spoons metally mean.
We scooped our way into your dreams
To knock the knives out bloody cold.
And lead you down the unforsaken road.

[whistle]

(Forsaken road)
There's a fork in the road (road)
I'll do as I am told
And I don't know, don't know, don't know, don't know
Who-oo-oo-oo-ooo I want to be.

Cuckoo

Kasabian - Underdog


Kill me if you dare
Hold my head up everywhere
Keep myself riding down this train
I'm the underdog
Live my life like a lullaby
I keep myself riding on this train
I keep myself riding on this train

Love in technicolor, sprayed out on walls
Well I've been pounding at the pavement
'Til there's nothing at all
I got my cloak and dagger
In a bar room brawl
See the local loves a fighter
Loves a winner to fall

Feels like I'm lost in a moment
But I'm always losing to win
And I can't get away from the moment
Seems like it's time to begin

Kill me if you dare
Hold my head up everywhere
Keep myself riding on this train
I'm the underdog
Live my life on a lullaby
I keep myself riding on this train
I keep myself riding on this train

It don't matter
I won't do what you say
No money and no power
I won't go your way
I can't take for the people
They don't matter at all
Well I've been waiting in the fuckin' shadows
'Til the day that you fall

It feels like I'm lost in a moment
But I'm always losing to win
Can't get away from the moment
Seems like it's time to begin

Kill me if you dare
Hold my head up everywhere
Keep myself riding on this train
But I'm the underdog
Live my life on a lullaby
I keep myself riding on this train

So tell me if you're down
Throw your weapons to the ground
I keep myself riding on this train
Paper on the wire
Sold your soul for another one
I keep myself riding on this train
I keep myself riding on this train

Megan Tentazione ~ Some Nights by fun.



Some nights I stay up cashing in my bad luck
Some nights I call it a draw
Some nights I wish that my lips could build a castle
Some nights I wish they'd just fall off

But I still wake up, I still see your ghost
Oh, Lord, I'm still not sure what I stand for oh
Whoa oh oh (What do I stand for?)
Whoa oh oh (What do I stand for?)
Most nights I don't know anymore...
Oh, whoa, oh, whoa, oh, whoa, oh, oh,
Oh, whoa, oh, whoa, oh, whoa, oh, oh

This is it, boys, this is war - what are we waiting for?
Why don't we break the rules already?
I was never one to believe the hype
Save that for the black and white
I try twice as hard and I'm half as liked,
But here they come again to jack my style

That's alright (that's alright)
I found a martyr in my bed tonight
She stops my bones from wondering just who I am, who I am, who I am
Oh, who am I? Mmm... Mmm...

Well, some nights I wish that this all would end
'Cause I could use some friends for a change.
And some nights I'm scared you'll forget me again
Some nights I always win, I always win...

But I still wake up, I still see your ghost
Oh, Lord, I'm still not sure what I stand for, oh
Whoa oh oh (What do I stand for?)
Whoa oh oh (What do I stand for?)
Most nights I don't know... (oh, come on)

So this is it. I sold my soul for this?
Washed my hands of that for this?
I miss my mom and dad for this?

(Come on)

No. When I see stars, when I see, when I see stars, that's all they are
When I hear songs, they sound like a swan, so come on.
Oh, come on. Oh, come on. Oh, come on!

Well, that is it guys, that is all - five minutes in and I'm bored again
Ten years of this, I'm not sure if anybody understands
This one is not for the folks at home;
Sorry to leave, mom, I had to go
Who the fuck wants to die alone all dried up in the desert sun?

My heart is breaking for my sister and the con that she called "love"
When I look into my nephew's eyes...
Man, you wouldn't believe the most amazing things that can come from...
Some terrible nights... ah...

Oh, whoa, oh, whoa, oh, whoa, oh, oh,
Oh, whoa, oh, whoa, oh, whoa, oh, oh

The other night you wouldn't believe the dream I just had about you and me
I called you up but we'd both agree

It's for the best you didn't listen
It's for the best we get our distance... Oh...
It's for the best you didn't listen
It's for the best we get our distance... Oh...

Kasabian - Days Are Forgotten

Ah, ah, ah, ah
Hey son, I'm looking forward
You're leaning backwards of this I'm sure
Have you had enough? Are you feeling rough?
Does your skull hurt? Well if it's warm
Cause I am taking back what's mine, I am taking back the time
You may call it suicide but I'm being born again, I'm waiting
Ah, I'm waiting, ah, right here now, I'm waiting
For someone or something to take me, to take me over

Days, days are forgotten
Now it's all over simply forgotten, how to disappear

Home bred, I've got blood lust
Feeding you bread crust, I leave no scar
You say I'm old hat, a fucking dirty rat
Call me a cliche how right you are
Cause I am flipping bag of bones, I am righting all your wrongs
You may call it suicide but I'm being born again, I'm waiting
Ah, I'm waiting, ah, right here now, I'm waiting
For someone or something to take me to take me over

Days, days are forgotten
Now it's all over simply forgotten, how to disappear
Days, days are forgotten
Now it's all over simply forgotten, how to disappear
I saw something, I get on the dark, it's the
You was at home chewing on monkey brains
I am not here, I'm just a silhouette
You will never ever ever forget
Days, days are forgotten
Now it's all over simply forgotten, how to disappear
Days, days are forgotten
Now it's all over simply forgotten, how to disappear
I saw something, I get on the dark, it's the
You was at home chewing on monkey brains

Talah: Greensleeves, Performed by David Nevue

vindflickan

Dove's an interesting character to pick a theme song for, but there are a couple of songs that encapsulate both her devil may care attitude and as well as her more private self where she is openly caring and devoted to defending her family and people. A good idea, for Dresden Files readers, is to think of how Dresden sees Murphy with his magical senses. The run down, broken angel who refuses to stop fighting for what she believes in even if there's a good chance it may kill her. Consequently...

For Harmon Dale:



Crystal Ball by Keane
Who is the man I see
Where I'm supposed to be?
I lost my heart, I buried it too deep
Under the iron sea.
Oh, crystal ball, crystal ball,
Save us all, tell me life is beautiful,
Mirror, mirror on the wall.
Lines ever more unclear,
I'm not sure I'm even here,
The more I look the more I think that I'm
Starting to disappear.
Oh, crystal ball, crystal ball,
Save us all, tell me life is beautiful,
Mirror, mirror on the wall.
Oh, crystal ball, hear my song,
I'm fading out, everything I know is wrong,
So put me where I belong.
I don't where I am,
And I don't really care,
I look myself in the eye,
There's no one there.
I fall upon the earth,
I call upon the air,
But all I get is the same old vacant stare.
Oh, crystal ball, crystal ball,
Save us all, tell me life is beautiful,
Mirror, mirror on the wall.
Oh, crystal ball, hear my song,
I'm fading out, everything I know is wrong,
So put me where I belong.

Nola Vale: In the Backseat - Arcade Fire

Nola's story at the moment is centered around her not feeling like she can depend on herself. She's felt lost ever since her father died, and she's struggling to accept that she's in charge of her own life (Paladin oaths included).

Galena: This Fire Burns - Killswitch Engage

When life punches you in the face, you punch that shit right back.

Desna Lethariel: Take It - Staind

I. Live. Through. This.
I. Still. Feel. This.
I. Just. Live. For.
