Текст песни:

I′ll tell you what you wanna know,
But boy you better listen close.
People gonna tell you lies,
Don′t let it come as a surprise.

That woman′s on my back again,
I know she′s got the best intentions.
When you begin to realize,
You know you got your daddy′s eyes.

And there′s something that I want to say,
I love her, too.
And all of this has got nothing to do with you.

And I′d like to stay but I can′t because
I′ve been fooling around and I know
That you called because you never even knew
That it was hurting me.

When you put it on the other hand,
When you′re old enough to understand.
That glove will bring it all to life,
I didn′t say that made it right.

Because that woman′s on my back again,
I know she′s got the best intentions.
When you begin to realize,
You know you got your daddy′s eyes.

[Repeat Chorus]

And sometimes people get tired,
And I woke up a little too late to lie.

Dreams should last a long time,
This is not what I′d call goodbye.

[Chorus x2]

I love her, too.

Текст песни:

The unknown distance to the great beyond
Stares back at my grieving frame
To cast my shadow by the holy sun
My spirit moans with a sacred pain
And it′s quiet now
The universe is standing still

There′s nothing I can say
There′s nothing we can do now
There′s nothing I can say
There′s nothing we can do now

And all that stands between the souls release ?
This temporary flesh and bone
We know that it′s over now
I feel my faded mind begin to roam

Every time you fall
And every time you try
Every foolish dream
And every compromise
Every word you spoke
And everything you said
Everything you left me, rambles in my head

There′s nothing I can say
There′s nothing I can do now
There′s nothing I can say
There′s nothing I can do now

Up above the world so high

And everything you loved
And every time you try
Everybody′s watching
Everybody cry

Stay, don′t leave me
The stars can′t wait for your sign
Don′t signal now

And there′s nothing I can say
There′s nothing I can do now
There′s nothing I can say
There′s nothing we can do now

Goodnight, travel well
Goodnight, travel well

And there′s nothing I can say
There′s nothing I can do now

Текст песни:

[Joy Division cover]

To the centre of the city where all roads meet, waiting for you
To the depths of the ocean where all hopes sank, searching for you
Moving through the silence without motion, waiting for you
In a room with a window in the corner I found truth

In the shadowplay acting out your own death, knowing no more
As the assassins all grouped in four lines, dancing on the floor
And with cold steel, odour on their bodies made a move to connect
I could only stare in disbelief as the crowds all left

I did everything, everything I wanted to
I let them use you for their own ends
To the centre of the city in the night, waiting for you
To the centre of the city in the night, waiting for you

@ The Killers

Текст песни:

Remember Rio and get down
Like some other DJ, in some other town
She′s been trying to tell me to hold tight
But I′ve been waiting this whole night
But I′ve been down across a road or two
But now I′ve found the velvet sun
That shines on me and you

In the back, uh huh, I can′t crack
We′re on top
It′s just a shimmy and a shake, uh huh
I can′t fake, we′re on top
We′re on top

The day is breaking, we′re still here
Your body′s shaking, and it′s clear
You really need it, so let go
And let me feed it, but you know

That I′ve been down across a road or two
But now I′ve found the velvet sun
That shines on me and you

In the back, uh huh, I can′t crack
We′re on top
It′s just a shimmy and a shake, uh huh
I can′t fake, we′re on top
We′re on top
We bring the bump to the grind, uh huh
I don′t mind, we′re on top
It′s just a shimmy and a shake, uh huh
I can′t fake, we′re on top
We′re on top

And we don′t mean to satisfy tonight
So get your eyes off of my bride tonight
Cause I don′t need to satisfy tonight

It′s like a cigarette in the mouth
Or a handshake in the doorway
I look at you and smile because I′m fine

And we don′t mean to satisfy tonight
So get your eyes off of my bride tonight
Cause I don′t need to satisfy tonight

It′s like a cigarette in the mouth
Or a handshake in the doorway
I look at you and smile because I′m fine

Текст песни:

I did my best to notice
When the call came down the line
Up to the platform of surrender
I was brought but I was kind

And sometimes I get nervous
When I see an open door
Close your eyes, clear your heart
Cut the cord

Are we human or are we dancer?
My sign is vital, my hands are cold
And I′m on my knees looking for the answer
Are we human or are we dancer?

Pay my respects to grace and virtue
Send my condolences to good
Hear my regards to soul and romance
They always did the best they could

And so long to devotion
You taught me everything I know
Wave goodbye, wish me well
You′ve gotta let me go

Are we human or are we dancer?
My sign is vital, my hands are cold
And I′m on my knees looking for the answer
Are we human or are we dancer?

Will your system be alright
When you dream of home tonight
There is no message we′re receiving
Let me know, is your heart still beating?

Are we human or are we dancer?
My sign is vital, my hands are cold
And I′m on my knees looking for the answer
Are we human or are we dancer?

You′ve gotta let me know

Are we human or are we dancer?
My sign is vital, my hands are cold
And I′m on my knees looking for the answer
Are we human or are we dancer?

Ha
I gotta tell ya
I′ll make it better
But i know there′s somethin′ i needed to say
When i was out, though
Maybe you were better alone
I know i′ll make it home

She told me sweet thang
Run a labour
In your shoes
Touch me til i follow in love
I wanna help her
Maybe we were better alone
I wanna show you how

And then we walked out
Make it ? now
I said i want it but i never alone
I wanna show you
Maybe we were somethin′ uncool
I wanna make you sing

Uh uh oh
Uh uh oh
Uh uh oh

Текст песни:

When there′s nowhere else to run
Is there room for one more son
One more son
If you can hold on
If you can hold on, hold on
I wanna stand up, I wanna let go
You know, you know - no you don′t, you don′t
I wanna shine on in the hearts of men
I wanna mean it from the back of my broken hand

Another head aches, another heart breaks
I am so much older than I can take
And my affection, well it comes and goes
I need direction to perfection, no no no no

Help me out
Yeah, you know you got to help me out
Yeah, oh don′t you put me on the back burner
You know you got to help me out

And when there′s nowhere else to run
Is there room for one more son
These changes ain′t changing me
The gold-hearted boy I used to be

Yeah, you know you got to help me out
Yeah, oh don′t you put me on the back burner
You know you got to help me out
You′re gonna bring yourself down
Yeah, you′re gonna bring yourself down
Yeah, you′re gonna bring yourself down

[x10]
I got soul, but I′m not a soldier
I got soul, but I′m not a soldier

Yeah, you know you got to help me out
Yeah, oh don′t you put me on the back burner
You know you got to help me out
You′re gonna bring yourself down
You′re gonna bring yourself down
Yeah, oh don′t you put me on the back burner
You′re gonna bring yourself down
Yeah, you′re gonna bring yourself down

Over and in, last call for sin
While everyone′s lost, the battle is won
With all these things that I′ve done
All these things that I′ve done
If you can hold on
If you can hold on

Текст песни:

We took a walk that night, but it wasn′t the same
We had a fight on the promenade out in the rain
She said she loved me, but she had somewhere to go
She couldn′t scream while I held I close
I swore I′d never let her go
Tell me what you wanna know
Oh come on, oh come on, oh come on
There ain′t no motive for this crime
Jenny was a friend of mine
So come on, oh come on, oh come on

I know my rights, I′ve been here all day and it′s time
For me to go, so let me know if it′s alright
I just can′t take this, I swear I told you the truth
She couldn′t scream while I held I close
I swore I′d never let her go

Tell me what you wanna know
Oh come on, oh come on, oh come on
And then you whisper in my ear
I know what you′re doing here
So come on, oh come on, oh come on
There ain′t no motive for this crime
Jenny was a friend of mine
Oh come on, oh come on, oh come on

Текст песни:

Save some face, you know you′ve only got one
Change your ways while you′re young
Boy, one day you′ll be a man
Oh girl, he′ll help you understand
Smile like you mean it
Smile like you mean it

Looking back at sunsets on the Eastside
We lost track of the time
Dreams aren′t what they used to be
Some things slide by so carelessly

Smile like you mean it
Smile like you mean it

And someone is calling my name
From the back of the restaurant
And someone is playing a game
In the house that I grew up in
And someone will drive her around
Down the same streets that I did
On the same streets that I did

Smile like you mean it
Smile like you mean it
Smile like you mean it
Smile like you mean it

Oh no, oh no no no
Oh no, oh no no no

Текст песни:

Help me out, I need it
I don′t feel like loving you no more
I don′t feel like loving you no more

Help me out, I need it
I don′t feel like touching her no more
Help me out, I need it
I said I don′t feel like touching her no more
Well how did it happen
I spent two long years in a strange strange land
Well how did it happen
I′d do anything just to be your man

[Chorus:]
You′re not going anywhere without me
These trials don′t prepare the air of love
You′re not telling anyone about me
And you shake and you bleed while I sing my song

I don′t feel like, I don′t feel like
I don′t feel like loving you
I don′t feel like, I don′t feel like
I don′t feel like loving you

All the different places
Ringing out like a shotgun in my head
All the pretty faces
Ringing out well I just can′t go to bed
Well how did it happen
I spent two long years in a strange strange land
Well how did it happen
I′d do anything just to be your man
I′d do anything just to be your man

[Chorus:]
You′re not going anywhere without me
These trials don′t prepare the air of love
You′re not telling anyone about me
And you shake and you bleed while I sing my song

I don′t feel like touching you
I don′t feel like touching you
I don′t feel like touching you
I don′t feel like touching you
You can′t tell anyone about me

[Chorus:]
You′re not going anywhere without me
Help me out I need it
You can′t tell anyone about me
Help me out I need it

I don′t feel like, I don′t feel like
I don′t feel like loving you
I don′t feel like, I don′t feel like
I don′t feel like loving you

Текст песни:

It′s getting close to sundown
Over the Sierra
Stranded on the heat wave
Burning with desire
She was on the sidewalk
Looking for a nightlife
Talked about the real thing
And drove into the fire
Headlights on the highway
The desert wind is howling
Rattlesnakes and romance
Are spilling with the rain
Candy apple red dress
Bleeding when she kissed me
Heaven in a ragtop
Takes away my pain

When your chips are down
When your highs are low
Joy ride
(Joy ride)
Move across the night like a separate wind
(Joy ride)

Pulled up to a motel
Vacancy was buzzing
Pink and dirty neon
Settled on the hood
Wrapped her arms around me
Come a little closer
Stumbled in the twilight
And fell onto the floor of the Mona Lisa
Dreaming of the free world
Lipstick on the nightstand
And demons at the door

When your chips are down
When your highs are low
Joy ride
(Joy ride)
Move across the night like a separate wind
(Joy ride)

When your hopes and dreams
Lose the will to go
Joy ride
Reaching for the light
More than we can win
And something in the distance
A glorious existence
A simple celebration
A place you never went before
(Why don′t you kiss me
And tell me that you want it?)
Reaching for the light
More than we can win
When your chips are down
(When your chips are down)
When your highs are low
Joy ride
(Joy ride)
All your hopes and dreams
All you need to know
Joy ride

Текст песни:

Lift me up on my honour
Take me over this spell
Get this weight off my shoulders
I′ve carried it well
Loose these shackles of pressure
Shake me out of these chains
Lead me not to temptation

Hold my hand harder
Ease my mind
Roll down the smoke screen
And open the sky

Let me fly
Man I need a release from
This troublesome mind
Fix my feet when they’re stumbling
And well you know it hurts sometimes
You know it′s gonna bleed sometimes

Dig me out from this thorn tree
Help me bury my shame
Keep my eyes from the fire
They can’t handle the flame
Grace cut out from my brothers
When most of them fell
I carry it well

Let me fly
Man I need a release from
This troublesome mind
Fix my feet when they’re stumbling
I guess you know it hurts sometimes
You know it′s gonna bleed sometimes

Now hold on
I’m not looking for sweet talk
I’m looking for time
Top a tower and sleep walk
Brother, cause it hurts sometimes
You know it′s gonna bleed sometimes
Hold on

You know its gonna hurt sometimes
When you call me
Hold on
Hold on
Hold on

I’m gonna climb that symphony home and make it mine
Let his resonance light my way
See, all these pessimistic sufferers tend to drag me down
So I could use it to shelter what good I’ve found

Текст песни:

On the field I remember you were incredible
Hey shut up, hey shut up, yeah
On the field I remember you were incredible
Hey shut up, hey shut up, yeah
On the match with the boys, you think you′re alone
With the pain that you drain from love
In a car with a girl, promise me she′s not your world
Cause Andy, you′re a star

Leave your number on the locker and I′ll give you a call
Hey shut up, hey shut up, yeah
Leave your legacy in gold on the plaques that line the hall
Hey shut up, hey shut up, yeah

On the streets, such a sweet face jumping in town
In the staff room the verdict is in
In a car with a girl, promise me she′s not your world
Cause Andy, you′re a star
In nobody′s eyes but mine
Andy, you′re a star
In nobody′s eyes but mine
Andy, you′re a star
In nobody′s eyes
In nobody′s eyes but mine

Текст песни:

Shakin′ like the Devil when she lets me go
Got a new place, and how it′s so much better
Falling over myself, the televisions′ on,
I turn it off and smile
Oh, Jennifer, you know I always tried
Before you say goodbye

Leave the bourbon on the shelf
And I′ll drink it by myself
And I love you endlessly,
Darling don′t you see I′m not satisfied
Until I hold you tight
Give me one more chance tonight
And I swear I′ll make it right
But you ain′t got time for this
And that wreckin′ bell is ringin′
And I′m not satisfied
Until I hold you

Jennifer, tell me where I stand
And who′s that boy holdin′ your hand?
Oh, Jennifer, you know I always tried
Before you say goodbye

Leave the bourbon on the shelf
And I′ll drink it by myself
And I never liked your hair or those people that you lie with
But I′m not satisfied
Until I hold you tight
And I love you endlessly,
Darling don′t you see I can′t be satisfied
Until I hold you tight

Leave the bourbon on the shelf
And I′ll drink it by myself
And I love you endlessly,
Darling don′t you see
I′m not satisfied

Текст песни:

Michael plays with stars
Soul Sister won′t you take a ride in his car
Late to call
When you wanted to be all
Baby, baby, don′t be so shy
Rock children hold your heads up high
In the night while I try
And tell the ballad of Valentine

You got it bad, but you know it′s true

I caught up with a friend in Dallas
We took a trip to New Orleans
Those black-eyed ladies
Won′t say they′re sorry

We finally caught a train to Memphis
Where everybody talks the same
Those blue suede babies
All know my name

And I said hold tight
Can′t you see it′s hurting me
But I′ve got the buzz
Like Marlon Brando
Michael Valentine, can′t we unite?

We ended up in North Dakota
Although my heart′s in Mexico
My muсequita
Abre tus ojos

With your new suit, and your black tie
Hold on, you′re just a gambling man, all proper like
I broke to the right and I caught your eye
Shut your mouth and wave goodbye
Tonight, I ain′t gonna let you rain on this parade

And I said hold tight
Can′t you see it′s hurting me
But I′ve got the buzz
Like Marlon Brando
Straight faced with misery tonight

And I will not lie when I say I ain′t cold no more
But I′ve got the buzz
Like Greta Garbo
Walking forwards in the sun
And I′ve got a coat tail left to ride

Well uh oh
I know he′s gonna be there tonight

Текст песни:

The Dustland Fairytale beginning
With just another white trash county kiss in ′61.
Long brown hair, and foolish eyes.
He′d look just like you′d want him to
Some kind of slick chrome American prince.

Blue Jean serenade
Moon river what you do to me.
I don′t believe you.

Saw Cinderella in a party dress, she was looking for a nightgown.
I saw the devil wrapping up his hands, he′s getting ready for the showdown.
I saw the minute that I turned away, I got my money on a pawn tonight.

Change came in disguise of revelation, set his soul on fire.
She said she always knew he′d come around.
And the decades disappear
Like sinking ships but we persevere.
God gives us hope but we still fear, we don′t know.

Your mind is poisoned.
Castles in the sky, sit stranded, vandalized.
The drawbridge is closing.

Saw Cinderella in a party dress, she was looking for a nightgown.
I saw the devil wrapping up his hands, he′s getting ready for the showdown.
I saw the ending where they turned the page, I threw my money and I ran away.
Sent to the valley of the great divide
Out where the dreams all hide.
Out where the wind don′t blow,
Out where the good girls die.
And the sky moves slow
I hear the bird don′t sing
I hear the field don′t blow
I hear the bell don′t ring
I hear the bell don′t ring
Out here the good girls die
Now Cinderella don′t you go to sleep, it′s such a bitter form of refuge.
Why don′t you know the kingdoms under siege and everyone needs you
Is there still magic in the midnight sun, or did you leave it back in ′61?
In the cadence of a young man′s eyes.
Out where the dreams all hide
