U2 // Where the Streets Have no Name [mean streets]

I want to run
I want to hide
I want to tear down the walls
That hold me inside
I want to reach out
And touch the flame
Where the streets have no name

I want to feel, sunlight on my face
See that dust cloud disappear without a trace
I want to take shelter from the poison rain

Where the streets have no name
Where the streets have no name
Where the streets have no name

We're still building
Then burning down love, burning down love
And when I go there
I go there with you
(It's all I can do)

The cities a flood
And our love turns to rust
We're beaten and blown by the wind
Trampled into dust

I'll show you a place
High on the desert plain

Where the streets have no name
Where the streets have no name
Where the streets have no name

Still building
Then burning down love
Burning down love

And when I go there
I go there with you
(It's all I can do)

Tuxedomoon // In a Manner of Speaking [beyond words]

In a manner of speaking, I just want to say
That I could never forget the way
You told me everything
By saying nothing

In a manner of speaking, I don't understand
How love in silence becomes reprimand
But the way that I feel about you
Is beyond words

Oh, give me the words
Give me the words
That tell me nothing

Oh, give me the words
Give me the words
That tell me everything

In a manner of speaking, semantics won't do
In this life that we live, we only make do
And the way that we feel
Might have to be sacrificed

So in a manner of speaking, I just want to say
That like you, I should find a way
To tell you everything
By saying nothing

Oh, give me the words
Give me the words
That tell me nothing

Oh, give me the words
Give me the words
Give me the words

Give me the words
Give me the words
Give me the words

Pink Floyd // See Emily PLay [Syd and the Old dream-state [but Bowie arranged it better]]

Emily tries but misunderstands, ah ooh
She often inclined to borrow somebody's dreams till tomorrow
There is no other day
Let's try it another way
You'll lose your mind and play
Free games for may
See Emily play
Soon after dark Emily cries, ah ooh
Gazing through trees in sorrow hardly a sound till tomorrow
There is no other day
Let's try it another way
You'll lose your mind and play
Free games for may
See Emily play
Put on a gown that touches the ground, ah ooh
Float on a river forever and ever, Emily
There is no other day
Let's try it another way
You'll lose your mind and play
Free games for may
See Emily play

Lana Del Rey // Video Games [the New Dream-state]

Swinging in the back yard
Pull up in your fast car
Whistling my name


Open up a beer and
Say get over here
And play a video game


I'm in his favorite sun dress
Watchin me get undressed
Take my body down town


I say 'You da bestest'
Lean in for a big kiss
Put his favorite perfume on
Go play a video game


It's you, it's you, it's all for you
Everything I do
Tell you all the time
Heaven is a place on earth with you
Tell me all the things you wanna do
I heard that you like the bad girls
Honey, is that true?
It's better than I ever even knew
They say that the world was built for two
Only worth living
If somebody is loving you
Baby now you do


Singing in the old bar
Swinging with the old stars
Living for the fame
Kissing in the blue dark
Playing pool and wild darts
Video games


He holds me in his big arms
He's drunk and I am seein' stars
This is all I think of
Watchin all our friends fall
Leanin out of old cars
This is my idea of fun
Playing video games


It's you, it's you, it's all for you
Everything I do
Tell you all the time
Heaven is a place on earth with you
Tell me all the things you wanna do
I heard that you like the bad girls
Honey, is that true?
It's better than I ever even knew
They say that the world was built for two
Only worth living
If somebody is loving you
Baby now you do


(Now you do)


It's you, it's you, it's all for you
Everything I do
Tell you all the time
Heaven is a place on earth wit' you
Tell me all the things you wanna do do
I heard that you like the bad girls
Honey, is that true?
It's better than I ever even knew
They say that the world was built for two
Only worth living
If somebody is loving you
Maybe now you do


Maybe now you do


(Now you do)

Brian Eno // By This River [from emptiness to waters]

Here we are 

Stuck by this river, 

You and I 

Underneath a sky that's ever falling down, down, down 

Ever falling down.

Through the day 

As if on an ocean 

Waiting here, 

Always failing to remember why we came, came, came: 

I wonder why we came. 

You talk to me 

as if from a distance 

And I reply 

With impressions chosen from another time, time, time, 

From another time.

Ambient 1/Music For Airports

Roxy Music // In Every Dream Home a Heartache [artificial love and the semi-emptiness of opulence]

In every dream home a heartache

And every step I take

Takes me further from heaven

Is there a heaven?

I`d like to think so

Standards of living

They're rising daily

But home oh sweet home

It's only a saying

From bell push to faucet

In smart town apartment

The cottage is pretty

The main house a palace

Penthouse perfection

But what goes on

What to do there

Better pray there

Open plan living

Bungalow ranch style

All of its comforts

Seem so essential

I bought you mail order

My plain wrapper baby

Your skin is like vinyl

The perfect companion

You float my new pool

De luxe and delightful

Inflatable doll

My role is to serve you

Disposable darling

Can't throw you away now

Immortal and life size

My breath is inside you

I'll dress you up daily

And keep you till death sighs

Inflatable doll

Lover ungrateful

I blew up your body

But you blew my mind

Oh Those Heartaches

Dreamhome Heartaches

For Your Pleasure [Vinyl]

David Bowie // Lady Grinning Soul [she Drove a beetle car]

She'll come, she'll go. She'll lay belief on you

Skin sweet with musky oil

The lady from another grinning soul

Cologne she'll wear. Silver and Americard

She'll drive a beetle car

And beat you down at cool Canasta

And when the clothes are strewn don't be afraid of the room

Touch the fullness of her breast. Feel the love of her caress

She will be your living end

She'll come, she'll go. She'll lay belief on you

But she won't stake her life on you

How can life become her point of view

And when the clothes are strewn don't be afraid of the room

Touch the fullness of her breast. Feel the love of her caress

She will be your living end

She will be your living end

She will be your living end

She will be your living end

She will be your living end
