Animal : Miike Snow

Animal

There was a time when my world was filled with
Darkness darkness darkness
Then I stopped dreaming now I’m supposed to fill it up with
Something something something

In your eyes I see the eyes of somebody I knew before
Long, long, long ago go go
But I’m still trying to make my mind up
Am I free or am I tied up

I change shapes just to hide in this place
But I’m still, I’m still an animal
Nobody knows it but me when I slip, yeah I slip
I’m still an animal

There is a hole and I tried to fill up with
Money money money
But it gets bigger till your hopes is always
Running running running

In your eyes I see the eyes of somebody
Who could be strong, tell me if I’m
Wrong wrong wrong
And now I’m pulling your disguise up
Are you free or are you tied up

I change shapes just to hide in this place
But I’m still, I’m still an animal
Nobody knows it but me when I slip, yeah I slip
I’m still an animal

I change shapes just to hide in this place
But I’m still, I’m still an animal
Nobody knows it but me when I slip, yeah I slip
I’m still an animal

I change shapes just to hide in this place
But I’m still, I’m still an animal
Nobody knows it but me when I slip, yeah I slip
I’m still an animal

I change shapes just to hide in this place
But I’m still, I’m still an animal
Nobody knows it but me when I slip, yeah I slip
I’m still an animal

Hallelujah

Hallelujah

Well I heard there was a secret chord
that David played and it pleased the Lord
But you don’t really care for music, do you?
Well it goes like this:
The fourth, the fifth,
The minor fall and the major lift
The baffled king composing Hallelujah

Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah…

Your faith was strong but you needed proof
You saw her bathing on the roof
Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew you
She tied you to her kitchen chair
She broke your throne and she cut your hair
And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah

Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah…

Baby I’ve been here before
I’ve seen this room and I’ve walked this floor (you know)
I used to live alone before I knew you
And I’ve seen your flag on the marble arch
and love is not a victory march
It’s a cold and it’s a broken Hallelujah

Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah…

there was a time when you let me know
What’s really going on below
But now you never show that to me, do you?
But remember when I moved in you
And the holy dove was moving too
And every breath we drew was Hallelujah

Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah…

Maybe there’s a God above
all I’ve ever learned from love
Was how to shoot somebody who outdrew you
And it’s not a cry that you hear at night
It’s not somebody who’s seen the light
It’s a cold and it’s a broken Hallelujah

Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah…
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah…
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah

Rid of Me… PJ Harvey

Tie yourself to me
No one else, no
You’re not rid of me
No, you’re not rid of me

Night and day I breathe
Hah hah ay hey
You’re not rid of me
No you’re not rid of me
No you’re not rid of me
No you’re not rid of me

I beg you my darling
Don’t leave me
I’m hurting

Lick my legs I’m on fire
Lick my legs I’m desire

I’ll tie your legs
Keep you against my chest
Oh you’re not rid of me
No you’re not rid of me
I’ll make you lick my injuries
I’m gonna twist your head off, see

Till you say don’t you wish you never never met her
Don’t you don’t you wish you never never met her
Don’t you don’t you wish you never never met her
Don’t you don’t you wish you never never met her

I beg you my darling
Don’t leave me
Cause I’m hurting
I’ve been lonely
Above everything
Above every day
And I’m hurting

Lick my legs I’m on fire
Lick my legs I’m desire
Lick my legs and I’m on fire
Lick my legs I’m desire

Oh you’re not rid of me
No you’re not rid of me
I’ll make you lick my injuries
I’m gonna twist your head off, see

Till you say don’t you wish you never never met her
Don’t you don’t you wish you never never met her
Don’t you don’t you wish you never never met her
Don’t you don’t you wish you never never met her

Lick my legs I’m on fire
Lick my legs I’m desire
Lick my legs and I’m on fire
Lick my legs and I’m desire
Lick my legs I’m on fire
Lick my legs and I’m desire
Lick my legs I’m on fire
Lick my legs and I’m desire
Lick my legs and I’m on fire
Lick my legs I’m desire
Lick my legs I’m on fire
Lick my legs and I’m desire

My Terrible Friend – Dying to Live

Lyrics:
We don’t always see eye to eye
But we see how the time’s flying by
And we live with a daunting suspicion
That it might not go into remission

So against all the odds we’re competing
Though we don’t know for sure what we’re reading
In the old testament we’d get fire and torment
But the new one says something ’bout healing

We’re dying to live
We’re trying to live
We’re dying to live
Cause there’s so much to live for

Miracles don’t seem all that fair
If I were God I would know who to scare
And I’d try to repay all the losses
That were caused by incompetent bosses

They knew how to launch an attack
While unarmed you lay flat on your back
And wait for the poison to cure you
Since faith ain’t enough to insure you

We’re dying to live
Cause there’s so much to live for

Angels always get the best lines
Fear not must have worked back in biblical times
But we’re full of the facts it’s the cross on our backs
When we pray are we just closing our eyes

We’re dying to live
We’re trying to live
We’re dying to live
Cause there’s so much to live for
