We're rotten fruit
We're damaged goods
What the hell, we've got nothing more to lose
One burst and we will probably crumble
We're backdrifting
This far but no further
I'm hanging off a branch
I'm teetering on a breaker
Honey sweets, so fall asleep
I'm backsliding
You fell into our arms
You fell into our arms
We tried but there was nothing we could do
Nothing we could do
All evidence has been buried
All tapes have been erased
But your footsteps give you away
So you're backtracking
Uh, uh, uh, you fell into our arms
You fell into our arms
We tried but there was nothing we could do
Nothing we could do
You fell into our
You fell into a
We're rotten fruit
We're damaged goods
What the hell, we've got nothing more to lose
One burst and we will probably crumble
We're backdrifters
Unfinished Business
Just give me a second, darling, to clear my head
Just put down those scissors, baby
On the single bed
The sand in the hour glass is running low
I came through thunder, the cold, wind, the rain and the snow
To find you awake by your window sill
A sight for sore eyes, and a view to kill
I broke down in horror at you standing there
The glow from the moon shone through cracks in your hair
I shouted with passion ? I love you so much?
But feeling my skin, it was cold to the touch
You whispered where are you?
I questioned your doubt
But soon realized you were talking to God now
You got blood your hands
And I know it?s mine
I just need more time
So get of your low, let?s dance like we used to
But there?s a light in the distance, waiting for me
I will wait for you
So get of your low, let?s kiss like we used to
I looked in the mirror, but something was wrong
I saw you behind, but my reflection was gone
There was smoke in the fireplace as white as the snow
A voice then came gently ?It?s your time to go?
That record you played, as you beg for forgiveness
?Don?t touch me? I screamed
I?ve got unfinished business
You got blood your hands
And I know it?s mine
I just need more time
So get of your low, let?s dance like we used to
But there?s a light in the distance, waiting for me
I will wait for you
So get of your low, let?s kiss like we used to

Despair In The Departure Lounge
He's pining for her
In a people carrier
There might be buildings and pretty things to see like that
But architecture won't do
Although it might say a lot about the city or town
I don't care what they've got keep on turning them down
It don't say the funny things she does
Don't even try and cheer him up, because
It just won't happen
He's got the feeling again
This time on the aeroplane
There might be tellys in the back of the seats in front
But Rodney and Del won't do
Although it might take your mind off the aches and the pains
Laugh when he falls through the bar
But you're feeling the same
'Cause she isn't there to hold your hand
She won't be waiting for you when you land
It feels like she's just nowhere near
You could well be out on your ear
This thought comes closely followed by the fear
And the thought of it
Makes you feel a bit
Ill
Yesterday I saw a girl
Who looked like someone you might knock about with
And almost shouted
And then reality kicked in within us
It seems as we become the winners
You lose a bit of summat
And half wonder if you won it at all
And don't say 'owt 'cause you've got no idea
And she's still nowhere near
And the thought comes closely followed by the fear
And the thought of it
Makes you feel a bit
...Ill
Despair in the departure lounge
It's one and they'll still be around at three
No signal and low battery
What's happened to me

Katherine Kiss Me
Katherine, kiss me
Slip your little lips will split me
Split me away
Your eye won?t hit me
Yes, I love you, I mean I
I?d love to get to know you
Sometimes I say the stupid things I think, I mean I
Sometimes I think the stupidest things
And do you ever wonder
How the boy feels
Katherine, kiss me
Flick your cigarette, then kiss me
Flick your eyes at mine so briefly
Your leather jacket lies in sticky pools of Cider Blackberry
You glance and ricochet
From every alpha male behind me
Eyes like bubbles on the washing machine
I wonder how the boy feels
Katherine, kiss me
In the alleyway by Jakey's
Jacket in the sodium light
Yes, I love you, I mean, I, I mean, I need to love
And though your opened eyes stay bored
Upon the overflowing pipes above me
Tonight I don?t mind
Because I never wonder
How the girl feels
(Franz Ferdinand)

Don't Talk (Put Your Head On My Shoulders)
I can hear so much in your sighs
And I can see so much in your eyes
There are words we both could say
But don't talk, put your head on my shoulder
Come close, close your eyes and be still
Don't talk, take my hand and let me hear your heart beat
Being here with you feels so right
We could live forever tonight
Let's not think about tomorrow
And don't talk put your head on my shoulder
Come close, close your eyes and be still
Don't talk, take my hand and listen to my heart beat
Listen, listen, listen.
Don't talk, put your head on my shoulder

The Fear
I want to be rich and I want lots of money
I don't care about clever I don't care about funny
I want loads of clothes and fuckloads of diamonds
I heard people die while they are trying to find them
I'll take my clothes off and it will be shameless
'Cuz everyone knows that's how you get famous
I'll look at the sun and I'll look in the mirror
I'm on the right track yeah I'm on to a winner
I don't know what's right and what's real anymore
I don't know how I'm meant to feel anymore
When we think it will all become clear
'Cuz I'm being taken over by the fear
Life's about film stars and less about mothers
It's all about fast cars and passing each other
But it doesn't matter cause I'm packing plastic
And that's what makes my life so fucking fantastic
And I am a weapon of massive consumption
And its not my fault it's how I'm program to function
I'll look at the sun and I'll look in the mirror
I'm on the right track yeah I'm on to a winner
I don't know what's right and what's real anymore
I don't know how I?m meant to feel anymore
When we think it will all become clear
'Cuz I'm being taken over by the fear
Forget about guns and forget ammunition
Cause I'm killing them all on my own little mission
Now I'm not a saint but I'm not a sinner
Now everything is cool as long as I'm getting thinner
I don't know what's right and what's real anymore
I don't know how I'm meant to feel anymore
When we think it will all become clear
'Cause I'm being taken over by the fear

My Mistakes Were Made For You
About as subtle as an earthquake, I know
My mistakes were made for you
And in the backroom of a bad dream, she came
And whisked me away, enthused
And it's as solid as a rock rolling down a hill
The fact is that it probably will hit something
On the hazardous terrain
And we're just following the flock round
And the inbetween, before we smash to smithereens
Like they were, and we scrambled from the blame
And it's the fame that put words in her mouth
She couldn't help but spit 'em out
Innocence and arrogance entwined
In the filthiest of minds
She was bitten on her birthday, and now
A face in the crowd she's not
And I suspect that now, forever the shape
She came to escape its forgot
And it's a ot to ask and not to sting
Give her less than everything
Around your crooked conscious she will wind
Cause we're just following the flock round
And the inbetween, before we smash to smithereens
Like they were, and we scramble from the grain
And it's the fame that put words in her mouth
She couldn't help but spit em out
Around your crooked conscious she will wind
And it's alot to ask and not to sting
Giver her less than everything
Innocence and arrogance entwined

Porcelina Of The Vast Oceans
As far as you take me, that's where I believe
The realm of soft delusions, floating on the leaves
On a distant shoreline, she waves her arms to me
As all the thought police, are closing in for sleep
The dilly dally, of my bright lit stay
The steam of my misfortunes
Has given me the power to be afraid
And in my mind I'm everyone
And in my mind
Without a care in this whole world
Without a care in this life
It's what you take that makes it right
Porcelina of the oceans blue
In the slipstream, of thoughtless thoughts
The light of all that's good, the light of all that's true
To the fringes gladly, I walk unadorned
With gods and their creations
With filth and disease
Porcelina, she waits for me there
With seashell hissing lullabies
And whispers fathomed deep inside my own
Hidden thoughts and alibies
My secret thoughts come alive
Without a care in this whole world
Without a care in this life
It's what you take that makes it right
And in my mind I'm everyone
In my mind I'm everyone of you
You make it right
It's all alright
You make it right
Porcelina of the oceans blue

Dead Souls
Someone take these dreams away,
That point me to another day,
A duel of personalities,
That stretch all true realities.
That keep calling me,
They keep calling me,
Keep on calling me,
They keep calling me.
Where figures from the past stand tall,
And mocking voices ring the halls.
Imperialistic house of prayer,
Conquistadors who took their share.
That keep calling me,
They keep calling me,
Keep on calling me,
They keep calling me.
Calling me, calling me, calling me, calling me.
They keep calling me,
Keep on calling me,
They keep calling me,
They keep calling me.

No You Girls
Kiss me
Flick your cigarette and then kiss me
Kiss me where your eye won't meet me
Meet me where your mind won't kiss me
Flick your eyes at mine then hit me
Hit me your with your eyes so sweetly
You know you know you know that
Yes I'd love to
I mean I'd
Love to get to know you
Oh
Kiss me
Yeah
Oh flick your cigarette and then kiss me
Kiss me where your eye won't meet m
Meet me where your eye won't flick me
Flick your mind at mine so briefly
Oh you know you know you're so sweetly
Ooh you know I know you know that
I love you
I mean
I need to love

Sleeping Lessons
Go without,
Till the need seeps in
You low animal,
Collect your novel petals for the stem.
And glow.
Glow.
Melt and flow.
Eviscerate your fragile frame.
And spill it out on ragged floor.
A thousand different versions of yourself.
And if the old gods still offend,
They got nothing left on which you depend.
So enlist every ounce
Of your bright blood.
And off with their heads.
Jump from the hook.
You're not obliged to swallow anything you despise.
See, those unrepenting buzzards want your life,
And they got no right.
As sure as you have eyes,
They got no right.
Just put yourself in my new shoes.
And see that I do what I do.
Because the old god still offends.
(Their pudgy hearts and slimy hands)
They got nothing left on which we depend.
So enlist every ounce
Of your bright blood.
And off with their heads.
Jump from the hook.
You're not obliged to swallow anything you despise,
That you despise.

El Presente
Ya se lo que te diga no va a ser suficiente
ay ay ay ay ay ay
Y lo que tu me entregues dejar pendientes
ay ay ay ay ay
Qui�n nos dice, que la vida nos dar el tiempo necesario
Toma de mi lo que deseas como si solo quedar
El presente es lo ùnico que tengo
El presente es lo ùnico que hay
Es contigo mi vida con quien puedo sentir
Que merece la pena vivir
Con el fondo como va se nos acaba todo
ay ay ay ay ay
La tempestad y la calma casi son la misma cosa
ay ay ay ay ay
Qui�n nos dice, que la vida nos dar el tiempo necesario
Toma de mi lo que deseas como si solo quedar
El presente es lo ùnico que tengo
El presente es lo ùnico que hay
Es contigo mi vida con quien puedo sentir
Que merece la pena vivir
El presente es lo ùnico que tenemos
El presente es lo ùnico que hay
Es contigo mi vida con quien puedo sentir
Que merece la pena vivir
Ya se lo que te diga no va a ser sufieciente consuelo
Por perder ese lugar que amamos y destrozamos
El presente es lo ùnico que tengo
El presente es lo ùnico que hay
Es contigo mi vida con quien puedo sentir
Que merece la pena vivir

Comfortably Numb
Hello.
Is there anybody in there?
Just nod if you can hear me.
Is there anyone home?
Come on, now.
I hear youre feeling down.
Well I can ease your pain,
Get you on your feet again.
Relax.
I need some information first.
Just the basic facts:
Can you show me where it hurts?
There is no pain, you are receding.
A distant ships smoke on the horizon.
You are only coming through in waves.
Your lips move but I cant hear what youre sayin.
When I was a child I had a fever.
My hands felt just like two balloons.
Now I got that feeling once again.
I cant explain, you would not understand.
This is not how I am.
I have become comfortably numb.
Ok.
Just a little pinprick. [ping]
Therell be no more --aaaaaahhhhh!
But you may feel a little sick.
Can you stand up?
I do believe its working. good.
Thatll keep you going for the show.
Come on its time to go.
There is no pain, you are receding.
A distant ships smoke on the horizon.
You are only coming through in waves.
Your lips move but I cant hear what youre sayin.
When I was a child I caught a fleeting glimpse,
Out of the corner of my eye.
I turned to look but it was gone.
I cannot put my finger on it now.
The child is grown, the dream is gone.
I have become comfortably numb.
(Pink Floyd)
Velkommen
Dette er min blogg, og her finner du et utvalg sangtekster som jeg vil dele med omverdenen.
Jeg anbefaler dere å høre på sangene på YouTube, som oftest er det ikke bare teksten som er fin.
Allikevel mener jeg at dere burde lese teksten før dere hører (og ser) sangen.
Dere må gjerne kommentere med deres meninger om sangene!
Da høres vi;
