Flaming Lips - Do You Realize??



Do you realize?
That you have the most beautiful face

Do you realize?
That everyone you know
Someday will die

Do you realize the sun doesn't go down
It's just an illusion caused by the world spinning 'round

Mountain Goats - Woke Up New

Woke Up New - The Mountain Goa...

On the morning when I woke up without you for the first time
I felt free
And I felt lonely
And I felt scared
And I began to talk to myself almost immediately
Not being used to being the only person there
Hmm

What do i do?
What do i do without you?

Stars - Barricade

Barricade - Stars

Trapped on the terraces, I looked at you and knew
You were the only thing that mattered
There was no one for me but you

In Harmony Street we beat a man
Just for standing there
I held my breath as I watched you swing
Then run your fingers through your hair

The pigs arrived with tear gas
And I wept at the mistakes we made
We stalked the streets like animals
And danced as windows shattered

Frightened Rabbit - Head Rolls Off

Head Rolls Off - Frightened Ra...

When it's all gone
Something carries on
And it's not morbid at all
Just when nature's had enough of you

When my blood stops
Someone else's will not
When my head rolls off
Someone else's will turn
And while I'm alive, I'll make tiny changes to earth
