the juliana theory - don't push love away

Here's a thought, if you're willing to listen. I only tell the
truth of the feelings I'm given. Can you hear me now? Listen.
Whispers in the rain. Listen. Don't push love away, you know
you do. It's all we have. It's a chore holding onto a vision.
Don't leave her high and dry. She's the one you'll be missing.
Can you hear me now? Listen. Whispers in the rain, while you're
awake. Don't push love away, you know you do. It's all we have.
I hate to think hesitation is a burden. A bittersweet design
for a lesson you're learning. She's crying. Can you feel me
now this time? Whispers in the rain, lying awake. Don't push
love away, you know you do. It's all we have.
Here's a thought, if you're willing to listen.

fast as you can- fiona apple

i let the beast in too soon, i dont know how to live
without my hand on his throat; i fight him always & still
o darling, its so sweet, you think you know how crazy
how crazy i am
you say you dont spook easy, you wont go, but i know
and i pray that you will
fast as you can, baby run-free yourself of me
fast as you can

i may be soft in your palm but i'll soon grow
hungry for a fight, and i will not let you win
my pretty mouth will frame the phrases that will
disprove your faith in man
so if you catch me trying to find my way into your
heart from under your skin
fast as you can, baby scratch me out, free yourself
fast as you can
fast as you can, baby scratch me out, free yourself
fast as you can

sometimes my mind dont shake and shift
but most of the time, it does
and i get to the place where i'm begging for a lift
or i'll drown in the wonders and the was
and i'll be your girl, if you say its a gift
and you give me some more of your drugs
yeah, i'll be your pet, if you just tell me its a gift
cuz i'm tired of whys, choking on whys,
just need a little because, because

i let the beast in and then;
i even tried forgiving him, but its too soon
so i'll fight again, again, again, again, again.
and for a little while more, i'll soar the
uneven wind, complain and blame
the sterile land
but if you're getting any bright ideas, quiet dear
i'm blooming within
fast as you can, baby wait watch me, i'll be out
fast as i can, maybe late, but at least about
fast as you can leave me, let this thing
run its route

sitting, waiting, wishing- jack johnson

I was sitting, waiting, wishing
You believed in superstitions
Then maybe you would see the signs
But lord knows that this world is cruel
And I ain’t the lord no I’m just a fool
Learning loving somebody
Don’t make them love you
Must I always be waiting, waiting on you?
Must I always be playing, playing your fool?

I sang your songs I danced your dance
I gave your friends all a chance
But putting up with them
Wasn’t worth never having you
Maybe you’ve been through this before
But it’s my first time so please ignore
The next few lines because they’re directed at you
I can’t always be waiting, waiting on you
I can’t always be playing, playing your fool

I keep playing your part
But it’s not my scene
Want this plot to twist
I’ve had enough mystery
You keep building it up
But then you’re shooting me down
But I’m already down
Just wait a minute
Just sitting, waiting
Just wait a minute
Just sitting, waiting

Well if I was in your position
I’d put down all my ammunition
I’d wonder why it had taken me so long
But lord knows that I’m not you
And if I was I wouldn’t be so cruel
Because waiting on love
Ain’t so easy to do
Must I always be waiting, waiting on you?
Must I always be playing, playing your fool?

city and colour- sensible heart

I get so distracted
By some peoples reactions
That I don't see my own faults
For what they are

At times so self destructive
With no intent or motive
But behind this emotion,
There's a sensible heart
A sensible heart

See I'm no king
I wear no crown
But desperate times
Seem over now
But still I weaken somehow
It tears me apart

I hope to learn as time goes by
That I should trust what's deep inside
Burning bright, oh burning bright
My sensible heart

Dashboard Confessional - As Lovers Go

She said "I've gotta be honest
You're wasting your time if you're fishing around here."
And I said, "You must be mistaken
Cause I'm not foolin. This feeling is real."

And she said, She said "You've gotta be crazy
What do you take me for? Some kind of easy mark?"
You've got wits, you've got looks, you've got passion.
But I swear that you've got me all wrong
All wrong, all wrong. and you've got me."

I'll be true, I'll be useful. I'll be cavalier
I'll be yours, my dear and I'll belong to you
If you just let me through
This is easy as lovers go
So don't complicate it by hesitating
And this is wonderful as loving goes
This is telling me what's the sense in waiting?

And I said "I've gotta be honest
I've been waiting for you all my life
For so long I thought I wasn't gonna settle down
But just seeing you makes me think twice

And being with you here makes me sane
I fear I'll go crazy if you leave my side
You've got wits, you've got looks, you've got passion.
But are you brave enough to leave with me tonight?
Tonight, tonight, you've got me

I'll be true, I'll be useful, I'll be cavalier
I'll be yours, my dear. and I'll belong to you
If you just let me through
This is easy as lovers go
So don't complicate it by hesitating
And this is wonderful as loving goes
This is telling me what's the sense in waiting?

Sarah McLachlan - Fumbling Towards Ecstasy

All the fear has left me now
I'm not frightened anymore
It's my heart that pounds beneath my flesh
it's my mouth that pushes out this breath
and if I shed a tear I won't cage it
I won't fear love
and if I feel a rage I won't deny it
I won't fear love
Companion to our demons
they will dance, and we will play
With chairs, candles, and cloth
making darkness in the day
It will be easy to look in or out
upstream or down without a thought
and if I shed a tear I won't cage it
I won't fear love
and if I feel a rage I won't deny it
I won't fear love
Peace in the struggle
to find peace
comfort on the way
to comfort
and if I shed a tear I won't cage it
I won't fear love
and if I feel a rage I won't deny it


I won't fear love
I won't fear love
I won't fear love.

Third Planet - Modest Mouse

Everything that keeps me together is falling apart, I've got
this thing that I consider my only art of fucking people over
My boss just quit the job says he's goin' out to find blind
spots and he'll do it
The 3rd Planet is sure that they're being watched by an
eye in the sky that can't be stopped
When you get to the promise land your gonna shake that
eyes hand
Your heart felt good it was drippin' pitch and made of wood
And your hands and knees felt cold and wet on the grass to me
Outside naked, shiverin' looking blue, from the cold
sunlight that's reflected off the moon
Baby cum angels fly around you reminding you we used
to be three and not just two
And that's how the world began
And that's how the world will end
A 3rd had just been made and we were swimming in the
water, didn't know then was it a son was it a daughter
When it occurred to me that the animals are swimming
around in the water in the oceans in our bodies and
another had been found another ocean on the planet
given that our blood is just like the Atlantic
And how
The universe is shaped exactly like the earth if you go
straight long enough you'll end up where you were
