All I Really Want .alanis morissette.
Do I stress you out
My sweater is on backwards and inside out
And you say how appropriate
I don't want to dissect everything today
I don't mean to pick you apart you see
But I can't help it
There I go jumping before the gunshot has gone off
Slap me with a splintered ruler
And it would knock me to the floor if I wasn't there already
If only I could hunt the hunter
And all I really want is some patience
A way to calm the angry voice
And all I really want is deliverance
Do I wear you out
You must wonder why I'm relentless and all strung out
I'm consumed by the chill of solitary
I'm like Estella
I like to reel it in and then spit it out
I'm frustrated by your apathy
And I am frightened by the corrupted ways of this land
If only I could meet the Maker
And i am fascinated by the spiritual man
I am humbled by his humble nature
What I wouldn't give to find a soulmate
Someone else to catch this drift
And what I wouldn't give to meet a kindred
Enough about me, let's talk about you for a minute
Enough about you, let's talk about life for a while
The conflicts, the craziness and the sound of pretenses
Falling all around...
.all around.
Why are you so petrified of silence
Here can you handle this?
(
)
Did you think about your bills, you ex, your deadlines
Or when you think you're gonna die
Or did you long for the next distraction
And all I need now is intellectual intercourse
A soul to dig the hole much deeper
And I have no concept of time other than it is flying
If only I could kill the killer
All I really want is some peace man
A place to find a common ground
And all I really want is a wavelength
All I really want is some comfort
A way to get my hands untied
And all I really want is some justice...

Crazy .alana davis.
you've got your home of the brave and i've got my land of the free
you conform to what society says and i conform to me
looking for light in the corners getting caught in the spider web
you look at me as if i'm giving a performance when i'm just feeding my head
and you know that i'm doing all right
and i won't explain myself to you just to avoid a fight
how i'm living ain't correct but for me it's just right
i'm not completely insane, i'm maybe just a little bit crazy
there's no one to blame, got no shame bout my game
don't want nobody to save me
i've got a pair of ruby slippers that i don't wear much anymore
and if i had the nerve i'd click my heels and return to the wonderland i knew before
i'm waiting on a slow boat to China, want to sail away to the sun
i've been searching for myself and i know i'm gonna find her if i break away from everyone
so the way that i act may not fit in
just because i've got a mind of my own doesn't mean it's a sin
i don't ask you to give up; don't expect me to give in
'cause i'm not completely insane, i'm maybe just a little bit crazy
there's no one to blame, got no shame about my game
don't want nobody to save me
i'll say it again...
some like to live for the moment taking life into their own hands every day
and if they don't get killed they get so high off the thrill
they could float to heaven anyway
and others want to save for tomorrow thinking money is security
well i understand the need but i don't get the greed
and they all seem pretty crazy to me
you can tell by the expression I wear
though I seem a little strange to you -I don't really care
i got the freedom to be and there are others like me everywhere...
i'm not completely insane
really just a little bit crazy

Heart and Shoulder .heather nova.
Wanna cry for you
Would it do any good
If I rained for you
It would just be water
And the night’s with you
And the storm’s in your hand
And you’re down and you’re down
And I can’t lift you
I’m powerless to change your world
I’m powerless to stop the hurt
Give you my heart, give you my shoulder
Wanna run for you
Would it do any good?
If I flew for you
You would still be standing
And it’s hard watching
β€Cause I’m part of you
And it’s hard not to
Not to know what I can do
I’m powerless to change your world
I’m powerless to stop the hurt
I’m trying hard to be your tower of strength
I’m trying hard to bring you back to joy
When the night just cuts you through
And the dream is lost to you
When you’re worried and confused
I will give you my heart, give you my shoulder
....
Capsized .sarah harmer.
when I heard about the coming day
wish I could wake up from the dream
in it I see a family photographed
and there you are tucked in the scene
and there's a jealous net inside my chest
there's a hurt, a sadness there
maybe I'd tell you all about it if
I thought you'd care
Heavy heart gets lighter by his side
but there are thoughts I wish I'd heard
If they ask you how I'm holding up
say I'm holding out for the words
what's the sense in being so sensitive
can I trade this thin skin for a shell
there are somethings I've got no feeling about
but there a something's I can tell
Heavy heart get lighter by yourself
it's been so long since you capsized
and you've been lying out there in the sun
has it begun?
has it begun?
Heavy heart, have you heard?

Talk to Me Now .ani difranco.
he said 'ani, you've gotten tough'
'cause my tone was curt
yeah, and when i'm approached in a dark alley,
i don't lift my skirt
in this city
self-preservation
is a full time occupation
i'm determined
to survive on this shore
you know i don't
avert my eyes anymore
in a man's world
i am a woman by .birth.
and after nineteen times around
i have found
they will stop at nothing once they know what you are worth
.talk to me now.
played the powerless
in too many dark scenes
i was .blessed.
with a birth and a death and i guess i just
want some say in between
don't you understand
in the day to day
and the face to face
i have to act
just as strong as i can
just to preserve a place
where i can be who i am
. talk to me now .

-Ish On the Radia .nelly furtado.
Well, if you're so low below then why you watching/You say good things come to those who wait/Well, I've been waiting a long time for it
I remember the days when I was so eager to satisfy you/And be less than I was just to prove I could walk beside you/Now that I've flown away I see you've chosen to stay behind me/And still you curse the day I decided to stay true to myself
You say your quest is to bring it higher/Well,I never seen change without a fire/But from your mouth I have seen a lot of burning/But underneath I think it's a lot of yearning/Your face, the colors change from green to yellow/To the point where you can't even say hello/You tell me you'd kill me if I ever snob you out/Like that's what you'd expect from me,like that's what I'm about
I remember the days when I was so eager to satisfy you/And be less than I was just to prove I could walk beside you/Now that I've flown away I see you've chosen to stay behind me/And still you curse the day I decided to stay true to myself
It's so much easier to stay down there guaranteeing you're cool/Than to sit up here exposing myself trying to break through/Than to burn in the spotlight, (_open.fire_)
turn in the spitfire (_open.fire_)/
Scream without making a sound, (__Open.Fire__)/
be up here and not look down (__Open.Fire-)/
because we're all afraid of heights
I remember the days when I was so eager to satisfy you/And be less than I was just to prove I could walk beside you/Now that I've flown away I see you've chosen to stay behind me/And still you curse the day I decided to stay true to myself
(are you feeling it? _are you feelin me now? you feelin me nowyou feelin me now)
(I remember the days)

To Bring You My Love .pj harvey.
I was born in the desert
I been down for years
Jesus, come closer
I think my time is near
And I've travelled over
Dry earth and floods
Hell and high water
To bring you my love
Climbed over mountains
Travelled the sea
Cast down off heaven
Cast down on my knees
To bring you my love.to bring You my love
toBringyoumylove. to bring you my Love.
Forsaken heaven
Cursed God above
Lay with the Devil
To bring you my love
To bring you my love
To bring you my love
