holy ghost -- coin but i'm not your holy ghost / when your wrists are bound / it's a deadly sin to give a man that crown / you can't say all hope is lost / when it was never found / let it settle in, then settle down / it's not some message hidden / less of a daring fate / a broken stained-glass window / our eyes still bleed the same

islands -- lewis del mar i'm right and wrong; reluctant king / i'm working on reconciling / all the brothers that reside inside of me / dreaming sleepless while this city dreams of peace / dreaming sleepless while this city dreams of peace / i don't believe in misery / i don't believe that you're near

smoke and mirrors -- gotye you're a fraud and you know it / but it's too good to throw it all away / anyone would do the same / you've got 'em going / and you're careful not to show it / sometimes you even fool yourself a bit / it's like magic / but it's always been a smoke and mirrors game / anyone would do the same

no shade in the shadow of the cross -- sujan stephens i'll drive that stake through the center of my heart / lonely vampire inhaling its fire / i'm chasing the dragon too far / there's blood on that blade, fuck me, i'm falling apart / my assassin like casper the ghost / there's no shade in the shadow of the cross

old college try -- the mountain goats from the entrance to the exit / is longer than it looks from where we stand / i want to say i'm sorry for stuff i haven't done yet / things will shortly get completely out of hand / i can feel it in the rotten air tonight / in the tips of my fingers, in the skin on my face / in the weak last gasp of the evening's dying light / in the way those eyes i've always loved illuminate this place / like a trashcan fire in a prison cell / like the searchlights in the parking lots of hell

blood on my name -- the brothers bright when the fires, when the fires are consumin' you / and your sacred stars won't be guiding you / i've got blood, i've got blood / blood on my name / not a spell gonna be broken / with a potion or a priest / when you're cursed you're always hopin' / that a prophet would be grieved

bottom of the rae -- delta rae the wolves will chase you by the pale moonlight / (drunk and driven by a devil's hunger) / drive your son like a railroad spike / (into the water, let it pull him under) / don't you lift him, let him drown alive / (the good lord speaks like a rolling thunder) / let that fever make the water rise / (and let the river run dry)

margaritville -- jimmy buffet wasted away again in margaritaville / searchin' for my lost shaker of salt. / some people claim that there's a woman to blame, / but i know, it's my own damn fault. / yes, and some people claim that there's a woman to blame, and i know it's my own damn fault

oh no! -- marina and the diamonds one track mind, one track heart / if i fail, i'll fall apart / maybe it is all a test / 'cause i feel like i'm the worst / so i always act like i'm the best / if you are not very careful / your possessions will possess you / tv taught me how to feel / now real life has no appeal

take me to church -- hozier i was born sick, but i love it / command me to be well / amen, amen, amen / take me to church / i'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies / i'll tell you my sins and you can sharpen your knife / offer me that deathless death / good god, let me give you my life

no children -- the mountain goats i hope it stays dark forever / i hope the worst isn't over / and i hope you blink before i do / and i hope i never get sober / and i hope when you think of me years down the line / you can't find one good thing to say / and i'd hope that if i found the strength to walk out / you'd stay the hell out of my way

aronist's lullabye -- hozier all you have is your fire / and the place you need to reach / don't you ever tame your demons / but always keep 'em on a leash / when i was a man i thought it ended / when i knew love's perfect ache / but my peace has always depended / on all the ashes in my wake

modern jesus -- portugal.the man we know that we're helpless / at least we always assume / but we don't need to prove nothing to you / let's keep the cool / you don't need to feel blue / 'cause we won't sell you nothing / you can't use / don't pray for us / we don't need no modern jesus / to roll with us / the only rule we need is never / giving up / the only faith we have is faith in us

are you satisfied -- marina and the diamonds people like to tell you what you're gonna be / it's not my problem if you don't see what i see / and i do not give a damn if you don't believe / my problem is my problem / that i never am happy / it's my problem, it's my problem / that i never will succeed / are you satisfied with an average life? / do i need to lie to make my way in life?

my trigger -- miike snow they say your body is full of sin / but they can't see the world that we in / your body is the road to where peace begins / i'll give you mine, we can take a spin, spin / baby let's forget the money, forget the money / where you're winning / baby we could chase the sun, you got me gunning / pull my trigger

wolfman -- the front bottoms say what you have to say, try not to cry / this is just not what you wanted / at this point in your life / it's so hard to stay / when all you wanna do is ride / i totally get you, i was a birdcage / and you were meant to fly / you are a broken heart tattoo / i'll have forever on my chest / for a love that i have lost / but never could forget

christ -- margot & the nuclear so and so's mary steal the car, drive it off with the carnival. / i could pray, i could beg you to stay, but i won't. / tell him what you like, he wants to know your dark side, / and all the weird shit in your brain, he's gonna wash it away with blood. / but he'll break your heart every night when he doesn't come.
