Confusion never stops
Closing walls and ticking clocks
Gonna come back and take you home
I could not stop that you now know
Singin’
Come out upon my seas
Curse missed opportunities
Am I a part of the cure
Or am I part of the disease
Singin’
You- oo-oo-oo are
You-oo-oo-oo are
Clocks- Coldplay
The clock has fallen and the cuckoo is calling
And the blackbirds congregate and shuffle their wings
I’m on the wire and they call me a liar but
This time I’m going to sing
(Carbon Leaf, “Clockwork”)
Blackbird singing in the dead of night
Take these broken wings and learn to fly
All your life
You were only waiting for this moment to arise
The Beatles
She said lately
Falling’s been easy on me
A lot like breathing used to be
And call me crazy
But I was thinking maybe you’d be waiting on the ground to come and catch me
And you come around here
You open up your wings, you open up your wings
And I’m drowning
You open up your wings, you open up your wings
And I’m gone
(Matt Nathanson, “Wings”)
All the bad boys are standing in the shadows
And the good girls are home with broken hearts
And I’m free falling
Free falling
Yeah, I’m free
Free falling
Tom Petty & Heartbreakers
And this broken-hearted attitude
You know it fits right in
To this movie about all of us
That’s waiting to begin
And I’ve been chasing dreams in magazines the last ten years
And the way you treat your lover is up to you
But it can’t feel all that good to be so jealous
I guess I’ve learned that too
(Stephen Kellogg and the Sixers, “Milwaukee”)
I was feeling insecure
You might not love me anymore
I was shivering inside
I was shivering inside
Oh I didn’t mean to hurt you
I’m sorry that I made you cry
Oh my I didn’t want to hurt you
I’m just a jealous guy
John Lennon lyric
Oh, I wish you’d come over
Not to stay, just to tell me that I
Was your biggest mistake to my face
And then leave me alone
In an еmpty apartment, face down in the carpеt
I wish you’d hurt me
It’s the mercy I can’t take
In the light of the sun, is there anyone?
Oh, it has begun
Oh, dear, you look so lost, your eyes are red when tears are shed
This world, you must have crossed, you said
“You don’t know me, and you don’t even care”
Oh-yeah, and you said
“You don’t know me, and you don’t wear my chains”
Oh-yeah
Boston lyric
To know ,know, know him
Is to love, love, love him
Just to see him smile
Makes my life worthwhile
To know, know, know him
Is to love, love, love him
And I do
The Shirelles/ The Teddy Bears-To know him is to love him
You’ll follow me back with the sun in your eyes and on your own
Bedshaped and legs of stone
You’ll knock on my door and, up, we’ll go
In white light, I don’t think so
But what do I know? What do I know? I know
(Keane, “Bedshaped”)
White light, White light going messing up my mind
White light, and don’t you know its gonna make me go blind
White heat, aww white heat it tickle me down to my toes
White light, Oh have mercy white light have it goodness knows…
White light, White light going messing up my mind
White light, and don’t you know its gonna make me go blind
White heat, aww white heat it tickle me down to my toes
White light, Oh have mercy white light have it goodness knows…
Waiting for the man to choose
Saying this ain’t the day that it ends
Cause there’s no white light
And I’m not through
I’m alive, I’m alive
George Michael- White Light
He was just blinded by the light
Cut loose like a deuce another runner in the night
Blinded by the light
Mama always told me not to look into the sights of the sun
Whoa, but but mama that’s where the fun is
Bruce Springsteen lyric
Gotta love the Boss
If darkness has you only
Bringing bruises into the light
Let darkness take its toll and make it right, make it right
Child, make it right
Bright white
Blinding bight
Celia, in time, I’ll find my way back
To your yellow pine
What is fear?
Be still, be still
Keep the blind down on the window
Ah, keep the pain on the inside
Just watching the dark
Just watching the dark
Ah he might laugh but you won’t see him
As he thunders through the night
Shoot out the lights
Richard Thompson lyric
You love the thunder and you love the rain
What you see revealed within the anger is worth the pain
And before the lightning fades and you surrender
You’ve got a second to look at the dark side of the man…
I can show you that when it starts to rain
Everything’s the same
I can show you
I can show you
Rain… I don’t mind
Shine… the weather’s fine
(the Beatles)
Buckets of rain, buckets of tears
Got all those buckets coming out of my ears
Buckets of moonbeams in my hands
You got all the love
Honey baby I can stand
Bob Dylan
If you just need a friend to talk to or maybe not talk at all
I will bring you buckets of mercy
And put a smile back on your pretty face
Bring a shovel if you want it
Carry your secrets to my grave
When you’re down and out
I’ll pick you up down at the station
Give your hard times some vacation
Get you headed on your way
I will bring you buckets of mercy
And hold your hand when you’re crossing the street
Pay your bail if you need it
I will be your saving grace…
