There are some cuts where there are no lyrics.
1. then being now alone and upon the threshold of the final peril, he made the song of parting, in praise of Luthien and the lights of heaven.

2.the wind is ruthless/the trees shake angry fingers at the sky/the people hunch their shoulders/hold their collars over their earsand run by/it's a cold rain/it's a hard rain/like the kind that you find in songs/i guess that makes me the jerk with the heartache/here to sing youabout how i've been done wrongDone Wrong-Ani DiFranco

3.They're praising a God that watches you weep/and doesn't want you to do a damn thing about it/When they want change the preacher says "shout it"/Does shouting bring about change ? I doubt it/All shouting does is make you lose your voice

4.Father snores as his wife gets into her dressing gown/Picks up the letter that's lying there/Standing alone at the top of the stairs/She breaks down and cries to her husband/Daddy our baby's gone.she's leaving home-the beatles

5.De morir seran tots sos talents,/esclafir-los han totes les dents;/no hi haura` home que no plor,/tot lo mo'n sera` en tristor.

6.I hear her voice/Calling my name/The sound is deep/In the dark/I hear her voice/And start to run/Into the trees/Into the trees

7.When I thought the field had cleared/It seems another suit appeared/To challenge me, woe is me/Though I hate to make a choice/My options are decreasing mostly rapidly/Well we'll see

8.born into a stranger's world/learn the language word by word/take a step and then you turn/and then you don't explain

9. I got a crush/Copy shop clerk/But she won't look up at me/Don't want to be known as the freak/Who just comes around to catch her eyeSleeping in the Flowers-They Might be Giants

10.Fame, makes a man take things over/Fame, lets him loose, hard to swallow/Fame, puts you there where things are hollowFame-David Bowie

11.Don't bother to pack your bags/Or your map./We won't need them where we're goin'./We're goin' where the wind is blowin'/Not knowin' where we're gonna stay.holiday-weezer

12.I don’t go to therapy to find out if I’m a freak/I go and I find the one and only answer every week/And it’s just me and all the memories to follow/Down any course that fits within a fifty minute hour/And we fathom all the mysteries, explicit and inherent/When I hit a rut, she says to try the other parent/And she’s so kind, I think she wants to tell me something,/But she knows that it’s much better if I get it for myself...What do you hear in these sounds-Dar Williams

13.You're asking me will my love grow/I don't know, I don't know/You stick around now it may show/I don't know, I don't knowsomething-the beatles

14. And so bare is my heart, I can't hide/And so where does my heart, belong/Beneath your tender touch/My senses can't divide/Ohh so strong/My desire

15. There are many things,/To talk about./Be constructive./Bear witness,/We can use./Be constructive with your blues,/Even when it's only warnings,/Even when you're talking war games.

16. So, I wanna live life in a wooden house,/Making more friends would be easy,/I wanna live where the sun comes out

17.But you see, it's not me, it's not my family./In your head, in your head they are fighting,/With their tanks and their bombs,/And their bombs and their guns./In your head, in your head, they are crying...zombie-the cranberries

18.and generally my generation/wouldn't be caught dead working for the man/and generally I agree with them/trouble is you gotta have youself an alternate plan/and I have earned my disillusionment/I have been working all of my life/and I am a patriot/I have been fighting the good fight/and what if there are no damsels in distress/what if I knew that and I called your bluff?/don't you think every kitten figures out how to get down
whether or not you ever show upnot a pretty girl-ani

19.I slept last night in a good hotel/I went shopping today for jewels/The wind rushed around in the dirty town/And the children let out from the schools/I was standing on a noisy corner/Waiting for the walking green/Across the street he stood/And he played real good/On his clarinet, for free

20.Now, I'd swear you don't remember why we parted,/Just like I cannot remember why we loved./Ain't it funny how the past/Takes the better memories last/'Cause the pain fades away, it all fades away.
