Mercy Street
by Peter Gabriel
looking down on empty streets, all she can see
are the dreams all made solid
are the dreams all made real
all of the buildings, all of those cars
were once just a dream
in somebody’s head
she pictures the broken glass, she pictures the steam
she pictures a soul
with no leak at the seam
let’s take the boat out
wait until darkness
let’s take the boat out
wait until darkness comes
nowhere in the corridors of pale green and grey
nowhere in the suburbs
in the cold light of day
there in the midst of it so alive and alone
words support like bone
dreaming of mercy street
wear your inside out
dreaming of mercy
in your daddy’s arms again
dreaming of mercy street
’swear they moved that sign
dreaming of mercy
in your daddy’s arms

To Rid the Disease
by Opeth
There’s nobody here, there’s nobody near
I try not to care, dead eyes always stare
Let these matters be, don’t trust what you see
Take hold of your time, step into the line
There’s innocence torn from its maker
And stillborn, the trust in you
This failure has made the creator
So would you tell him what to do
Leave your mark upon the head of someone
Who’ll cry for his state, we know it’s too late
I turn round to see what was meant to be
Faint movement release to rid the disease

let it out and move on… they say life carries on…
it was only one hour ago
it was all so different then
theres nothing yet has really sunk in
looks like it always did
this flesh and bone
its just the way that you would tied in
now theres no-one home
i grieve for you
you leave me
so hard to move on
still loving whats gone
they say life carries on
carries on and on and on and on

City of Delusion
Stay away from me
Build a fortress
And shield your beliefs
Touch the divine
As we fall in line
Can I believe
When I don’t trust
All your theories
Turn to dust
I choose to hide
From the All Seeing Eye
Destroy this City of Delusion
Break these walls down
I will avenge
And justify my reasons
With your blood

Every Day is Exactly the Same (Studio Cut)
Lyrics by Trent Reznor
I believe I can see the future
Cause I repeat the same routine
I think I used to have a purpose
But then again
That might have been a dream
I think I used to have a voice
Now I never make a sound
I just do what I’ve been told
I really don’t want them to come around

Swans: Blood Promise
Lyrics by Michael Gira
When silence falls
And light remains
And time is born
Beneath the sun
I’ll hide your name.
Inside a word
And paint your eyes
With false perception
And I feel your mind
In everything
And every breath
Destroys a sound.
And I will follow
A false sensation.
And I’ll always believe.
Your blood promise
And every breath.
I stole from you
And I never will see
Your perfect body
And you never have spoken
An unclear word
And I’ll never betray
Your blood promise

Floating City
by Tori Amos - Y Kant Tori Read
You went away
Why did you leave me
You know I believed you
Nothing explained
Where are the answers
I know I need you
Tell me
Is your city paved with gold
Is there hunger
Do your people grow old
Do your governments
Have secrets that they’ve sold
