lyrics

Nelly Furtado – All good things (come to an end)

par

Honestly what will become of me
I don’t like reality
It’s way too clear to me
But really life is daily
We are what we don’t see
We missed everything daydreaming
Flames to dust
Lovers to friends
Why do all good things come to an end
Flames to dust
Lovers to friends
Why do all good things come to an end
(come to an end, come to an end
Why do all good thins come to an end)x2
Travelling I always stop at exits
Wondering if I’ll stay
Young and restless
Living this way I stress less
I want to pull away when the dream dies
The pain sets it and I don’t cry
I only feel gravity and I wonder why

Flames to dust
Lovers to friends
Why do all good things come to an end
Flames to dust
Lovers to friends
Why do all good things come to an end
(come to an end, come to an end
Why do all good thins come to an end)x2

The dogs were whistling a new tune
barking at the new moon
hoping it would come soon so that they could die
The dogs were whistling a new tune
barking at the new moon
hoping it would come soon so that they could die

Flames to dust
Lovers to friends
Why do all good things come to an end
Flames to dust
Lovers to friends
Why do all good things come to an end
(come to an end, come to an end
Why do all good thins come to an end)x2

Well the dogs were barking at the new moon
Whistling a new tune
Hoping it would come soon
And the sun was wondering if it should stay away for a day until the feeling went away
And the sky was falling
And the clouds were dropping and the rain forgot how to bring salvation
The dogs were barking at the new moon
Whistling a new tune
Hoping it would come soon so that they could die

Jewel – Good Day (Alice In Wonderland)
 

I say to myself
Self, why are you awake again? It’s one a.m.
Standing with the fridge wide open, staring
Such a sight, florescent light
The stars are bright
Might make a wish, if I believed in that shit
As it is, I might watch TV
Cause it’s nice to see people more messed up than me
I say to myself, as I smile at the wall, just let myself fall

It’s gonna be all right, no matter what they say
It’s gonna be a good day, just wait and see
It’s gonna be all right, cause I’m all right with me
It’s gonna be, it’s gonna be, it’s gotta be

I shiver, shut the door
Can’t think standing here no more
I’m alone, my mine’s racing, heart breaking
Can you be everything I need you to be?
Can you protect me like a daughter?
Can you love me like a father?
Can you drink me like water?
Say I’m like the desert, just way hotter.

The point of it all
Is that if I should fall
Still you’re name I’ll call

It’s gonna be all right, no matter what they say
It’s gonna be a good day, just wait and see
It’s gonna be okay, cause I’m okay with me
It’s gonna be, it’s gonna be

As long as we laugh out loud
Laugh like we’re mad
Cause this crazy, mixed up beauty is all that we have
Because what’s love but an itch we can’t scratch, a joke we can’t catch
God, but still we laugh

Get back in bed, turn off the TV
You say "It’ll be all right baby, just wait and see."

It’s gonna be all right, it’s gonna be okay
It’s gonna be all right, just wait and see
It’s gonna all right, no matter what they say
Gonna be a good day, just wait, just see
Gonna be okay, cause I’m okay with me
It’s gonna be, it’s gonna be, it’s gonna be, Ok

Uh-oh, I’m awake again
It’s one a.m.
Staring…
Such a sight
Well, at least the stars are bright

The Wind That Shakes The Barley (2ème)

par

I sat within a valley green
Sat there with my true love
And my fond heart strove to choose between
The old love and the new love
The old for her, the new that made
Me think on Ireland dearly
While soft the wind blew down the glade
And shook the golden barley

Twas hard the mournful words to frame
To break the ties that bound us
Ah, but harder still to bear the shame
Of foreign chains around us
And so I said, "The mountain glen
I’ll seek at morning early
And join the brave united men"
While soft wind shook the barley

Twas sad I kissed away her tears
Her arms around me clinging
When to my ears that fateful shot
Come out the wildwood ringing
The bullet pierced my true love’s breast
In life’s young spring so early
And there upon my breast she died
While soft wind shook the barley

I bore her to some mountain stream
And many’s the summer blossom
I placed with branches soft and green
About her gore-stained bosom
I wept and kissed her clay-cold corpse
Then rushed o’er vale and valley
My vengeance on the foe to wreak
While soft wind shook the barley

Twas blood for blood without remorse
I took at Oulart Hollow
I placed my true love’s clay-cold corpse
Where mine full soon may follow
Around her grave I wondered drear
Noon, night and morning early
With aching heart when e’er I hear
The wind that shakes the barley

Figurant sur l’album éponyme sortie en juin de cette année, "Goodbye Alice in Wonderland" est une réflexion de Jewel sur sa vie. Elle semble abandonné définitivement les fantaisies des contes de fées, même si elle ne nie pas le besoin de garder ses rêves. Peu connue en France, à l’instar de Sarah Mc Lachlan, cette jeune poetesse a à son actif 6 albums et 10 ans de carrière. Un son légèrement folk (guitare et piano) accompagnent en général bien ses textes.
Goodbye Alice in Wonderland

It’s four in the afternoon
I’m on a flight leaving L.A.
Trying to think about my life
My youth scattered along the highway

Hotel rooms and headlights
I’ve made a living with a song
Guitar as my companion
Wanting desperately to belong

Fame is filled with spoiled children
They grow fat on fantasy
I guess that’s why I’m leaving
I crave reality

So goodbye Alice in Wonderland
Goodbye yellow brick road
There is a difference between dreaming and pretending
I did not find paradise
It was only a reflection of my lonely mind wanting
What was missing in my life

I’m embarassed to say the rest is rock and roll cliche
I hit the bottom when I reached the top
I never knew it was you who was breaking my heart
I thought you had to love me
You did not

Yes a heart can hallucinate
If it’s completely starved for love
It can even turn monsters into angels from above

You forged my love like a weapon
And turned it against me like a knife
You broke my last heartstring
But you opened up my eyes

So goodbye Alice in Wonderland
Goodbye yellow brick road
There is a difference between dreaming and pretending
That was not love in your eyes
It was only a reflection of my lonely mind searching
What’s beenmissing in my life

Growing up is not the absence of dreaming
It’s being able to understand the difference between
The ones you can hold and the ones that you’ve been sold
Dreaming is a good thing cause it brings new things to life
But pretending is an ending that perpetuates a lie
Forgetting what you are, seeing for what you’ve been told

Truth is stranger than fiction
And this is my chance to get it right
Life is much better without all of your pretty lies

So Goodbye Alice in Wonderland
You can keep your yellow brick road
Cause there is a difference between dreaming and pretending
These are not tears in my eyes
They are only a reflection of my lonely mind wanting
They are only a reflection of my lonely mind wishing
I found what’s missing in my life

Pour le clip c’est par là que ça se passe >>>

Richard Ashcroft – Break The Night With Colour
Fools they think I do not know
The road I’m taking
If you meet me on the way
Hesitating
That is just because I know which way I will choose

The corridors of discontent
That I’ve been traveling
All alone in search for truth
The world’s so frightning
Nothing’s going right today
‘Cos nothing ever does

Oooh, I don’t wanna know your secrets
Oooh, they lie heavy on my head
Oooh, let’s break the night with colour
Time for me to move ahead

Monday morning coming down
like understanding
Mama thinks you are the ground
Looking so frightning
Nothing’s going right today
‘Cos nothing ever does

Oooh, I don’t wanna know your secrets
Oooh, they lie heavy on my head
Time for me to break my cover
Time for me to move ahead

Been givin’ up
You will come again

Been givin’ up
You will come again

Oooh, I don’t wanna know your secrets
Oooh, they lie heavy on my head
Oooh, let’s break the night with colour
Time for us to move ahead

Oooh, I don’t wanna know your secrets
Oooh, they lie heavy on my head
Oooh, let’s break the night with colour
Time for me to move ahead

Peur du bonheur?

Nickleback – Feelin’ Way Too Damn Good

I missed you so much
That I begged you to fly and see me
You must’ve broke down
Coz you finally said that would
But now that you’re here

I just feel like I’m constantly dreaming


Coz something’s gotta go wrong

Coz I’m feelin’ way to damn good


For 48 hours I don’t think that we left my hotel room
Should show you the sights
Coz I’m sure that I said that I would
We gotta make love just one last time in the shower


Well something’s gotta go wrong

Coz I’m feelin’ way to damn good

And it’s like, every time I turn around
I fall in love and find my heart face down and
Where it lands is where it should
This time it’s like
The two of us should probably start to fight

Coz something’s gotta go wrong

Coz I’m feeling way to dam good, oh

Feelin’ way too damn good

Sometimes I think best if left in the memory
It’s better kept inside than left for good
Lookin’ back each time they tried to tell me
Well something’s gotta go wrong
Coz I’m feelin’ way too damn good

And it’s like, every time I turn around
I fall in love and find my heart face down and
Where it lands is where it should
This time it’s like
The two of us should probably start to fight
Coz something’s gotta go wrong
Coz I’m feeling way to dam good, oh
Feelin’ way too damn good
Oh, oh, feelin’ way too damn good

I missed you so much
That I begged you to fly and see me
You must’ve broke down
Coz you finally said that would
But now that you’re here
I just feel like I’m constantly dreaming


Coz something’s gotta go wrong

Coz I’m feelin’ way to damn good

And it’s like, every time I turn around
I fall in love and find my heart face down and
Where it lands is where it should
This time it’s like
The two of us should probably start to fight
Coz something’s gotta go wrong
Coz I’m feeling way to damn good, oh, oh
Feelin’ way too damn good
(I missed you so much
That I begged you to fly and see me)
Feelin’ way too damn good
(I missed you so much
That I begged you to fly and see me)
