The sun is shining hard at my feet
And the city is an animal ready to eat

It's raining like a nose bleed, cigarettes and sweets
And I feel it coming on
Bloody as the day I was born

It's 1974

Look at this ocean with everyone drowning, idiots
Screamin', and everyone sinking in slowly
We're surrounded
In the yellow lights of the city
Wasted as bodies, in bed with somebody
A touch away with nothing to do
We're surrounded

Did I slip? Know I stumbled
Did I trip? 'Cause I know I fell
All's I know is I'll wake up
Here in my clothes tomorrow
Oh, girl I wish I knew you well
Oh, girl I wish I knew you well
But I'm just sayin'
Hi,

So, I am in the twilight of my youth
Not that I'm going to remember
And have you seen the moon tonight
Is it full?
Still burning its embers
The people dancing in the corner, they seem happy
But I am sad
I am still dancing in the coma of the drinks I just had

I found your photograph
In a cardboard box in a magazine
I can't remember you, remember us or anything
I taught you how to feel, but you just feel numb
They taught you how you feel, but you just feel numb
She comes apart in the avalanche
Fades out like a dance
Crawls back into bed when it's over

Two hands, but never one to hold
Oh well, see you in the fold for drinks,
Your pitcher on the bathroom sink
Tuesday, cool you didn't call
With my luck I'll see you at the show and freak
Whatever, I don't care at all
I lost your number in the breeze
'Cause I got so high

Blue sky, when you gonna learn to rain?
And let yourself go blue for once
And let go of that weight you've been carrying
In this house, no one goes to sleep for days
It's like were working on a mountainside
Trying not to slide
Into the ocean

I'm as lonely as boys
I'm as lonely as boys
I'm as lonely as monkeys taught to destroy
Anything they learn to enjoy

So pardon me, angel
So pardon me, angel
Pardon me, my love, for you is a stranger

I've come to you from broken things
I've crawled to you on my hands and knees
Sailed to you across the seven seas
If only to hear you say my name
I've come to you from broken times
I've shown you my face with no disguise
My memories a mirror without eyes
If only to take away your pain

I finally see the lights
Down on the east side
Wasted like a memory
If I had a car I'd drive
Straight off the bridge into the river, it would empty me

Pretty pictures in a magazine
Everybody is so make believe, it's true

Oh baby why do I miss you like I do
Oh I miss my sweet
And the birds all singing blue
And white
And white

Call me on your way back home, dear
Cause I miss you

What's come to stay from the cannonball days
But a house and some clothes on the line
Fire the wave of your drunken brigade
The streets of New York as a child

Woman so fine, and fine as a girl,
Slow like an Italian wine
Hair all a mess and a dress all disheveled

Took a walk with you
In the shadow of my shoes
Danced around the broken blues
In the dirty summer rain
Moonlight on the cars
Parked in single file at bars
With a thick and rosy smoke
Waving its busted hand

Soundtrack from "Elisabethtown"

When they call your name
Will you walk right up
With a smile on your face
Or will you cower in fear
In your favorite sweater
With an old love letter

I don't want to carry your curse
That was supposed to reimburse
What the thing was that I couldn't make work
I don't want to walk in the dark
If these shadows are made of the promises I couldn't make up
Maybe everything is not okay
I feel so crazy now
Maybe everything is not okay

So, it's how the story goes.
And we come to the scene where I'm holding you close.
She moves, moves like a thin dulling blade
Cuts, all the words that I said.
The only difference is,
The only difference is,
The truth,
The truth is I miss you.

I read a book on you
You were doing fine
One lazy afternoon
You wrote in your diary
Your sister Margot, she don't talk
Peter, he's sad and rude
My thoughts they are with you

Dear Chicago,
You'll never guess
You know the girl you said I'd meet someday?
Well I got something to confess,
She picked me up on Friday,
Asked me if she reminded me of you?
I just laughed and lit a cigarette,
Said That's impossible to do.

Ryan Adams - Desire

Сила двух сердец увядает, как цветок
Но надо подождать, и все придет с новой силой
Найти ответ и сердца воспылают снова
Уровень воды поднимается, и все потихоньку опускается под воду
Желание

Do I want to say the things I say
When I know that they are wrong
Do I wait here forever for you, would you ask me to?
I've been waiting here, all night

If your not going to show
Were not gonna fight
I could stay, forever, if I tried

So, tell me how you feel without your medicine
Hold your head feelin' paranoid
Sweet sixteen for a schizoid

So, tell me how you feel
Now you're the only one
Held your head in the setting sun
Sweet black smoke with the poison

I could wait a thousand years, my love
I'd wait for you
I could stand in just one place, my love
And never move
As the fire burns around us in the dark
One part is the world and one's my heart
My love, we can do better than this
My love, how can you complicate a kiss?

Here's a picture of your lonely Fridays
Turned to nothing on a Friday night
Firecracker with a pile of empties
Detonated with a lonely fire
I see your face, I hear your voice
I touch the phone and wonder

Is this explosion gonna set me reeling?

Riot on the streets, the touch beneath the sheets

It's only gonna make me love you more

The cops they got the guns, the night destroys the sun

It's only gonna make me love you more

Goodnight Rose, we're going to win
Put your troubles behind you and go on to bed
Let go of the worry, there's so much nobody understands
Don't live your life in such a hurry, life goes by us, so, so fast
And the sun will come up again, and I will be here
If you get scared just hold my hand
Tomorrow is yours, and who knows, maybe we'll win
The whole shebang

It's happening baby
They're putting up the chairs
Zaking the money
And all we can do is pray
Pray for tomorrow

So close your eyes
So close your mouth

I see you walking by
I feel it in my bones
It's just like a halo when it's broke
So tell me what you want
And maybe I will try
A seal around my head and it shines
Oh, I waited too long
Oh, I waited too long

It's so hard to remember what you said
Leaning off the side of the pier in England
Winter time came, everything frozen
Just sitting at the station waiting on a ghost (ooh)
I've been hanging on to hope for so long
(Hanging on to hope)
Hanging on to hope so long 'til my fingers bleed
They're bloody at the pages of the comics I read

Welcome to my haunted house
I live here alone, ain't no one else
It's the last house at the end of the block
My friends all disappear one by one
The cracks in the windows and the spiders, they crawl
Across the lattice from 1924
Life is too sweet, yeah, and life is too short
And there's nowhere to fall

How long's it gonna be, babe
Before I get over you, doll
You're tearin' the stuff right out of me kid
What with you living right up the hall

And I'm tired of living in this hotel
TV and dirty magazines
And I'm tired of livin' on 23rd Street

Two pictures laid on an amp
I'm broken like strings on guitars again
I saw your car parked next to a bridge
I think it was yours, I don't know, I can't tell
I saw your picture in a magazine
I decided to talk to you, what the hell?
Twin pictures in a magazine

Baby, I know you cannot hear me now
'Cause you're fast asleep
But I love you now
Colors inside your head go spinning around
Like a ferris wheel
Exploding and falling to the ground
Oh, people are screaming, people are screaming
My baby, she's dreaming

Poor little rose, beaten by the rain
In the wind in the gale, thunder and the hail
Sometimes I feel like I'm going insane
Without the numbness or the pain so intense to feel
Especially now it added up through the years

And I, I taught myself how to grow
Without any love and there was poison in the rain

Will you comfort me, in my time of need?
Can you take away the pain of a hurtful deeds?
Cause when we need it most, there's no rain at all
And the dust just settles right there on the feed

Will you say to me a little rains gonna come
When the sky can't offer none to me
Cause I will come for you

When the night is blue and the storms have gone
May the love shine its light on you
Life is never long or as sweet and strong
It's forever to justify how true
How I feel right now about you
I could feel the heat of the summer in my veins
Roarin' down the tracks of the nighttime trains
Comin' down the tracks up the depots and plains

Karina, if I told you what I wanted to
I wonder if you would've stuck around
Well, I could take you walking down to Hoxton Square
With the lazy afternoon still kickin' around

Karina, if I left it where I wanted to
Yeah, I wonder if you'd sit around and smile
When you're dreamin' of America, your father's ghost

Ryan Adams
"La Cienega Just Smiled"

"Ah the night...here it comes again"
It's on with the jeans, the jacket and the shirt
How'd I end up feeling so bad
For such a little girl
And I hold you close in the back of my mind

There's strange weather in the back of the room
And she's pretty, Jessy's spinning the tunes
Eyelashes and some white leather boots
God what have I been drinking?
I could be serious, but I am just kidding around
I could be anything, anything but sticking around

Love is hell

I don’t remember were we wild and young
All that faded into memory
I feel like somebody I don’t know
Are we really who we used to be
Am I really who I was

The lights will draw you in
And the dark will bring you down

Nobody with no one to call
And all this time
Hot metal as her clothes dissolve
Emergency lights
It's genocide
It's sucide

I'm spinning around the room in awe

Well nighttime let her through
Yeah I'm talking to you
I wanna see her
Oh precious little thing
With eyes that dance around
Without their clothes

So buy a pretty dress

Driving through the streets tonight
It's hot, I’ve got the windows down
I wish I could call you, I wish you were still around
Nothing much left in the tank
Somehow this thing still drives
Think I forgot what it needed but somehow still survive
And all the walls we built they must come down

Well I shuffled through the city on the Fourth of July
Had a firecracker waiting to blow
Breaking like a robber who was making his way
To the cities of Mexico
Lived in an apartment out on Avenue A
I had a tar on the corner of Tenth
Had myself a lover who was finer than gold
But I been broke and I been busted up since

Carry all my things into the hall
Carry all my things
Stack them up in piles against the wall
Stack up all my things
Baby, I was wounded too
Baby, and my head's on backwards
Carry all my things into the hall
There's no, there's no words

This is where the summer ends
In a flash of pure destruction,
No-one wins

Goin' nuclear
Nuclear

Violets in my eyelids goin' red

Hanging 'round Broadway
And I think I saw your face
Cars speeding by me
Reminding me of us
Rats going from the gutter to their holes
All these people that are trying to get home

I don't know where that is anymore

Something's beating on the wall on the other side
Strange lovers moan
Each other's names on by sheets
For the very first time
One of them's James
The other's some name she changes every time she lies across his bed

But the light of the moon leads the way towards the morning

1, 2, 3

Blue eyes for miles
Pretty as a peach
Glorious kind and always on time
Never far outta reach
Tomorrow's on it's way
And there's always new songs to sing

If the walls in the room could talk
I wonder to myself, would they laugh?
It's like some kind of jail
Beams of light
Fall through the curtains onto the bed
I'm all alone now, I can do as I please
I don't feel like doing much of anything
True love ain't that hard to find

Feels like I'm going no place again
Like I lost my mind
Like I'm out of time
Like a criminal that only steals
Something he don't want
So maybe he'll feel something else
Other than the thrill
Of the thing of wanting something that just won't compare

He destroys his pretty face
Emptier than outer space
Trees grow arms and eyes
Outside my window witches sharpen knives
For the car crash comes
Red lights
Red lights

Everybody's cool playing rock n roll
Everybody's cool playing rock n roll
I don't feel cool at all
I don't feel cool at all

Send all of my best out to the band
I don't think I'll make it out to the show
There's this girl I can't get out of my head

Toss me aside
Only in it for the meantime
Our love is like a rollercoaster ride
Cheap thrills and slow dives
Can you feel my heart?
It's beating like it was fractured in time
Can you feel it?
Can you feel my pain?

I knew a girl named Rosalie,
We used to hang out in the park,
We used to score the system grease,
From the fellas after dark.
We used to sail the streets at night,
Used to hang out late,
She had a bad time in the barrack,
Caught a bullet in the teeth.

I am a broken toy
For a lonely girl
Use once and destroy
And go find some more
Back home, kids play in the leaves in the park
She wants to play a game of hearts

I'm the rag doll boy

So much for the days of glory
It's not like your idols dies and are holy now
You cross the street and count to ten
And everyone that mattered went to bed
Or maybe they died

Welcome home
Miss so unknown

Midnight coming, I can feel it in the air
I hear your voice, run your fingers through my hair
I reach out for your hand but I know it isn't there
I pick up my phone and I shiver and I stare
Morning coming early every day
I can barely sleep, I been lying here awake
I close my eyes, I see you with some guy
Laughing like you never even knew I was alive

Today I watched the boats
Moving through the harbor
Walking on water
In your arms I'd stay
Forever if I could
Forever if I may
Keep me in your thoughts, don't disappear

It's a long way down, but I feel alright
It's a long way down, but I feel alright
And the cops get in, and the crowd gets tight
Take your tomorrow, pain and your sorrow and teach it how to fly
It's starting to hurt
Starting to hurt
Starting to hurt
Starting to hurt

Really don't want let it all go
But I really think I'm gonna, really think I'm gonna
Bunch of pain but nothing to show
Better off without, better off without the pain
'Cause whatever is wrong
You gotta fix it
Wherever you belong
Whatever's missing

We are like our red balloon
When someone bumps into you
Be careful, don't you let go too soon
Oh, I wanna stop you
I wanna talk to you
I wanna stop you
I wanna talk to you
We are like that fallen prize

Midnight, you come and pick me up with no headlights
Long drive, could end in burning flames or paradise
Fade into view
It's been a while since I even heard from you
I should just tell you, you should leave
I know exactly where it leads
Watch us go around, 'round each time

Sweet black magic coming down the line.
Sweet black magic coming down the line.
Don't worry little honey,
'Bout the money you'll be feelin' fine.
Cause I'm gonna see the doctor,
Got some money, gonna get us high.
Sweet Los Angeles in the fall,
Sweet Los Angeles in the fall,

Let me go I'm only letting you down
I 've got nothing to say to you now
I lose the feelings that are weighing me down
When I'm safe

It's turning morning all the birds sing
I'm not complicating anything
I'll have another then I'll go to bed

There you go
Waving your arms like a girl
Suckin' down your cloves
Don't worry, nobody knows

Somebody order my round
'Cause I'm getting by
With a twelve pack from 12th & Porter with Billy

I was shooting int he back of the car
When the windows smashed on the police cars
I was swimming through the streets of New York
With my cocaine dagger and throats to cut
And it was making her cry
But it was making me high

She was a hooker at the age of sixteen

All the things you thought made you strong
Now make you weak
The very same things that used to make us laugh
Now only make us weep
The very same things that used to take a day
Now take a week
And all the things that once were so easy to climb
They are now too steep

Everybody wants you to be special
And everybody wants you to be high
They throw you down a rope when you're in trouble, Baby
Screamin' save me
They then charge you with the rescue blues

And everybody wants to see you suffer
They know that you need the pain so much

God, please bring the rain
Yeah, and bring it soon
Let it flood right through the houses
Into Judy's room

With a father on amphetamines
Her mother hides the pearls
Reach out into the darkness

When you get the time
Sit down and write me a letter
When you're feeling better
Drop me a line
I wanna know how it all works out
I had a feeling we were fading out
I didn't know that people faded out so fast
That people faded out

Well, girl sometimes i feel just like a boy
Put here on this earth for you to toy around with
Like matchbox cars you buy and burn in your backyard
Like monsters underneath your bed you ain't afreaid of yet
But you let me in
And i feel alright
Yeah, i feel alright
The late night girls are anxious

Tell 'em that the house is not for sale
We're still livin' here, how come nobody can tell
They're takin' all the furniture, movin' our things
Come on little honey, put your head on my knee
Tell 'em that the house is not for sale
And calm down, calm down, calm down
Calm down, calm down, calm down

Let me singa song for you
That's never been sung before
All the words were meant for you
And never been said before
She kisses when she sleeps
She kisses when she's sleeping
Let me sing a song for you
A song that's worth the dreaming

I'm tired of giving up so easy
Tired of giving up at all
Tired of giving up so easy
Tired of giving up at all

Nobody said it would be easy
Nobody said nothing at all
And I'm tired of giving up

Well the pills I got they ask me lets go out for a while
And the knives up in the kitchen are all too dull to smile
Yeah and the sun it tries to warn me
Boy those wings are made of wax
While the things I do to kill me
They just tell me to relax
But oh Cinderella
All dressed up in all your boots and all your charms

It's so hard to be without you
Lying in the bed, you are so much to be without
Rattles in my head that empty drum filled with doubt
Everything you lose, the wisdom will find its way out
Every night is lonesome and is longer than before
Nothing really matters anymore
It's so hard to be without you
Used to feel so angry and now only I feel humble

Summer's slow
Get the songs to work their own
In the heart
I am stranded in the shore
Armor soon becomes sound
And then we're gonna feel better
There's nothing we can do
At night you're already there

Here we go again
God, I listen, but I'm not listening
Everything she says, oh I heard it all before
So what if I have
It doesn't mean it isn't beautiful
And everyone needs company once in a while

Two hearts, one of them will break

From the coast of gold, across the seven seas,
I'm travelling on, far and wide,
But now it seems, I'm just a stranger to myself,
And all the things I sometimes do, it isn't me but someone else.

I close my eyes, and think of home,
Another city goes by, in the night,
Ain't it funny how it is, you never miss it til it's gone away,

It gets cold at night
Lights are blue
Mad as hell at me
Mad as hell at you
There's something to hear
And there's something to get
Ain't neither one of us going to ever know
Til' we give a shit

Poor girl, no Ma
Nothing much to speak of
But a rough diamond
Sleep now and your angels will come, dear
Poor Matilda
Handcuffed hard to the wheel and
Steering wildly
Through love's fields, so blindly

Porcelain doll
Your mother runs an antique shop
She takes some stuff, I take a lot
We sleep all day
Slow response
I'm feelin' like an afterthought
I guess I'm kinda lost in space
And London's okay

You said, gimme what you can
Standing on the corner, diamonds on your hand
Underneath the bridge
Where the flowers roam, oh, you said
You said, can you hear my voice
I hear it rumble the trees by the porch
As the lying sways
In the back of your mind for days

Go on to the street to the cars in the pouring rain
Go on to the bus that left us in the dust and the flames
And when the son meets the father
It'll be something smarter for the pain
But you will always be the same
You will always be the same

Go on little girl, feet twirl, go and make him smile
