10,000 Maniacs - Don't Talk



Don't talk, I will listen.

Don't talk, you keep your distance
for I'd rather hear some truth tonight than entertain your lies
so take you poison silently.
Let me be. Let me close my eyes.
Don't talk, I'll believe it.

Don't talk, listen to me instead
I know that if you think of it, both long enough and hard
the drink you drown your troubles in is the trouble you're in now.
Talk talk talk about it, if you talk as if you care

but when your talk is over tilt that bottle in the air
tossing back more than your share.
Don't talk, I can guess it.

Don't talk, well now your restless
and you need somewhere to put the blame for how you feel inside.
You'll look for a close and easy mark and you'll see me as fair game.
Talk talk talk about it, talk as if you care
but when your talk is over tilt that bottle in the air
tossing back more than your share.
You talk talk talk about it, you talk as if you care.
I'm marking every word and can tell this time for sure
your talk is the finest I have heard.
So don't talk, let me go on dreaming.
How your eyes they glow so fiercely I can tell your inspired
by the name you chose for me. Now what was it? O, never mind it.
We will talk talk talk about this when your head is clear.
I'll discuss this in the morning, but until then you may talk but I won't hear.
 

Bright Eyes - First Day of My Life​



This is the first day of my life
Swear I was born right in the doorway
I went out in the rain
Suddenly everything changed
They're spreading blankets on the beach

Yours is the first face that I saw
I think I was blind before I met you
I don't know where I am
I don't know where I've been
But I know where I want to go

And so I thought I'd let you know
That these things take forever
I especially am slow
But I realize that I need you
And I wondered if I could come home

Remember the time you drove all night
Just to meet me in the morning
And I thought it was strange
You said everything changed
You felt as if you'd just woke up

And you said, "This is the first day of my life.
I'm glad I didn't die before I met you,
But now I don't care
I could go anywhere
With you and I'd probably be happy."

So if you wanna be with me
With these things there's no telling
We just have to wait and see
But I'd rather be working for a paycheck
Than waiting to win the lottery

Besides maybe this time it's different
I mean I really think you like me

Lyrics:

On the turning away​


On the turning away
From the pale and downtrodden
And the words they say
Which we won't understand

"Don't accept that what's happening
Is just a case of others' suffering
Or you'll find that you're joining in
The turning away"

It's a sin that somehow
Light is changing to shadow
And casting it's shroud
Over all we have known

Unaware how the ranks have grown
Driven on by a heart of stone
We could find that we're all alone
In the dream of the proud

On the wings of the night
As the daytime is stirring
Where the speechless unite
In a silent accord

Using words you will find are strange
And mesmerized as they light the flame
Feel the new wind of change
On the wings of the night

No more turning away
From the weak and the weary
No more turning away
From the coldness inside

Just a world that we all must share
It's not enough just to stand and stare
Is it only a dream that there'll be
No more turning away?

Turn (LYRICS) I jump from thought to thought like a flea jumps to a light
You could give an aspirin the headache of its life
Maybe it's the crazy that I'd miss Watering plastic plants in the hope that they'll grow
Seeing a message flash and then smashing up my phone
Maybe it's the crazy that I'd miss It won't get better than this
I like the way your brain works, I like the way you try To run with the wolf pack when your legs are tired
I like the way you turn me inside and out I like the way you turn I like the way your brain works
I like the way your brain works
I want to get college girl drunk tonight
No morning fears, no mountains to climb
They say the best memories are the ones that we forget
Like listening to Drake at your best friend's swimming pool
Floating anti-clockwise in a red mushroom
Maybe it's the crazy that I'd miss It won't get better than this
I like the way your brain works,
I like the way you try To run with the wolf pack when your legs are tired
I like the way you turn me inside and out
I like the way you turn I like the way your brain works
I like the way your brain works
Baby, it's the crazy I like I think I saw the world turn in your eyes Baby,
it's the crazy I like And maybe it's the bullshit I'd miss Screaming at the moon in black lipstick
Maybe it's the bullshit I'd miss
It won't get better than this

I don't know why I love this song so much :)
There are a few versions of it available but I really like this one because we see and hear the band members playing "Live".
