  • Death Cab For Cutie - Soul Meets Body

    I want to live where soul meets body
    And let the sun wrap its arms around me
    And bathe my skin in water cool and cleansing
    And feel, feel what its like to be new

    Cause in my head there's a greyhound station
    Where I send my thoughts to far off destinations
    So they may have a chance of finding a place
    where they're far more suited than here

    I cannot guess what we'll discover
    Between the dirt with our palms cut like shovels
    But I know our filthy hand can wash one another's
    And not one speck will remain

    I do believe it's true
    That there are roads left in both of our shoes
    If the silence takes you
    Then I hope it takes me too
    So brown eyes I hold you near
    Cause you're the only song I want to hear
    A melody softly soaring through my atmosphere

    Where soul meets body
    Where soul meets body
    Where soul meets body

    I do believe it's true
    That there are holes left in both of our shoes
    If the silence takes you
    Then I hope it takes me too
    So brown eyes I hold you near
    Cause you're the only song I want to hear
    A melody softly soaring through my atmosphere
    A melody softly soaring through my atmosphere
    A melody softly soaring through my atmosphere
    A melody softly soaring through my atmosphere




  • Franz Ferdinand - Walk Away

    I swapped my innocence for pride
    Crushed the end within my stride
    Said I'm strong now I know that I'm a leaver
    I love the sound of you walking away, you walking away
    Mascara bleeds a blackened tear, oh
    And I am cold, yes, I'm cold
    But not as cold as you are
    I love the sound of you walking away, you walking away
    I love the sound of you walking away, walking away, hey hey

    Why don't you walk away?
    Why don't you walk away?

    Why don't you walk away?
    No buildings will fall down
    Don't you walk away
    No quake will split the ground
    Won't you walk away
    The sun won't swallow the sky
    Won't you walk away?
    Statues will not cry

    Don't you walk away
    Why don't you walk away?
    Why don't you walk away?
    Why don't you walk away?
    Hey

    I cannot turn to see those eyes
    As apologies may rise
    I must be strong and stay an unbeliever
    And love the sound of you walking away, you walking away
    Mascara bleeds into my eye, oh
    And I'm not cold, I am old
    At least as old as you are

    And as you walk away
    Oh, as you walk away

    Oh, as you walk away
    My headstone crumbles down
    As you walk away
    The Hollywood winds will howl
    As you walk away
    The Kremlin's falling
    As you walk away
    Radio Four is static

    As you walk away
    Oh, as you walk away
    Oh, as you walk away
    Oh, as you walk away
    Hey

    The stab of stiletto
    On a silent night
    Stalin smiles Hitler laughs
    Churchill claps Mao Tse Tung on the back




  • Nickelback - Rockstar

    I'm through with standing in line
    to clubs we'll never get in
    It's like the bottom of the ninth
    and I'm never gonna win
    This life hasn't turned out
    quite the way I want it to be

    I want a brand new house
    on an episode of Cribs
    And a bathroom I can play baseball in
    And a king size tub big enough
    for ten plus me

    I'll need a credit card that's got no limit
    And a big black jet with a bedroom in it
    Gonna join the mile high club
    At thirty-seven thousand feet

    I want a new tour bus full of old guitars
    My own star on Hollywood Boulevard
    Somewhere between Cher and
    James Dean is fine for me

    I'm gonna trade this life for fortune and fame
    I'd even cut my hair and change my name

    [CHORUS]
    'Cause we all just wanna be big rockstars
    And live in hilltop houses driving fifteen cars
    The girls come easy and the drugs come cheap
    We'll all stay skinny 'cause we just won't eat
    And we'll hang out in the coolest bars
    In the VIP with the movie stars
    Every good gold digger's
    Gonna wind up there
    Every Playboy bunny
    With her bleach blond hair

    Hey hey I wanna be a rockstar
    Hey hey I wanna be a rockstar

    I wanna be great like Elvis without the tassels
    Hire eight body guards that love to beat up assholes
    Sign a couple autographs
    So I can eat my meals for free

    I think I'm gonna dress my ass
    with the latest fashion
    Get a front door key to the Playboy mansion
    Gonna date a centerfold that loves to
    blow my money for me

    I'm gonna trade this life
    For fortune and fame
    I'd even cut my hair
    And change my name

    'Cause we all just wanna be big rockstars
    And live in hilltop houses driving fifteen cars
    The girls come easy and the drugs come cheap
    We'll all stay skinny 'cause we just won't eat
    And we'll hang out in the coolest bars
    In the VIP with the movie stars
    Every good gold digger's
    Gonna wind up there
    Every Playboy bunny
    With her bleach blond hair
    And we'll hide out in the private rooms
    With the latest dictionary and
    today's who's who
    They'll get you anything
    with that evil smile
    Everybody's got a
    drug dealer on speed dial
    Hey hey I wanna be a rockstar
    Hey hey I wanna be a rockstar

    I'm gonna sing those songs
    that offend the censors
    Gonna pop my pills
    from a pez dispenser
    When they ask why I drink all day
    I'll say because I can

    I'll get washed-up singers writing all my songs
    Lip sync em every night so I don't get 'em wrong
    Then listen to the fans tell me how damn good I am

    I'm gonna trade this life for fortune and fame
    I'd even cut my hair and change my name
