Tom Waits – Take me home

You’ve got to take me home, you silly girl
and put your arms around me
you’ve got to take me home, you silly girl
oh, the world’s not round without you

I’m so sorry that I broke your heart
please don’t leave my side
oh, take me home, you silly girl
cause I’m still in love with you…

Emiliana Torrini – Birds

Let’s stay awake and listen to the dark
Before the birds, before they all wake up
It’s the ending of a play
And soon begins another
Hear, the leaves applaud the wind

See the sun come rising
And white-wings start to fly
Like strings of pearls in the firey sky
I don’t wanna close my eyes
Don’t wanna leave the stage now
The leaves applaud our stay

Lend me your wings and teach me how to fly
Show me, when it rains
The place you go to hide
And the curtains draw again
And bow another day ends
The leaves applaud the wind

Sparklehorse – Heart of Darkness

She laid her head
On my chest
As the sun burned
Down the west
There’s one thing we still got
This one last dance in this parking lot

Oh yeah, i, I got a heart of darkness
Oh yeah, i, I got a heart of darkness

Then she woke up
Into the fire
And the flames kept
Dancing higher
Satan would laugh at her screams
Then she woke up from her dreams

Oh yeah, i, I got a heart of darkness
Oh yeah, i, I got a heart of darkness
