positive chord changes for impressionable young white girls - ICS (I Call Shotgun)
don’t say you’re gonna find a way
when you’ve already backed down
it’s too late, the world’s not gonna wait for you to come back ‘round
don’t take your place, don’t hold their gaze
don’t let them stand in your own way
don’t take your place, don’t hold their gaze
don’t let them stand in your own way
but it’s not enough to be you and stay true
to bend you or hold you to break you or mold you
THE LION & THE UNICORN - The Men They Couldn’t Hang
“Who went mad, who drowned in drink?
Who’s in a cage and who’s extinct?
Who ended up in a uniform?
The Lion and The Unicorn”

Direction Home - Jamie T
so i said
sweetheart, is there anyone i can call?
last night i was here i still feel so low
i said sweetheart, is there anyone i can call?
‘cause last time i left you i couldn’t find the direction home.

my list - the killers
and sometimes it gets hard, and don’t she know
don’t give the ghost up, just clench your fist
you should have known by now, you were on my list
don’t give the ghost up, just clench your fist
you should have known by now, you were on my list
don’t give the ghost up, just clench your fist
you should have known by now, you were on my list
when your heart is not able
your prayers, they’re not fables
let me show you, let me show you
let me show you how much i care
The Weakerthans | Left and Leaving
My city’s still breathing, but barely it’s true, through buildings gone missing like teeth.The sidewalks are watching me think about you, sparkled with broken glass. I’m back with scars to show, back with the streets I know will never take me anywhere but here.

wish i’d stayed (acoustic) - ellie goulding
Why can’t we speak another language, one we all agree on?
Why when men look outside they see houses
Instead of fields they grew from?
We are constantly uprooted from them, making us tiresome and fearful
Can you get up right now and have a free-fall?
Sams Town - The Killers (Abbey Road Version)
Nobody ever had a dream round here,
but I don’t really mind that it’s starting to get to me
Nobody ever pulls the seams round here,
but I don’t really mind that it’s starting to get to me
I’ve got this energy beneath my feet
like something underground’s gonna come up and carry me,
I’ve got this sentimental heart that beats
but I don’t really mind and it’s starting to get to me

this river is wild - the killers
you better run for the hills before they burn
listen to the sound of the world and watch it turn
i just want to show you what i know
and catch you when the current lets you go
or should i just get along with myself
i never did get along with everybody else
i’ve been trying hard to do what’s right
but you know i could stay here all night
and watch the clouds fall from the sky
Eyeless in Holloway - Johnny Flynn
they lost eyes in old city streets
while the funeral pyres burned the last of the meek

Your Protector - Fleet Foxes
she left a week to roam
your protector’s coming home
keep your secrets with you, girl
safe from the outside
