BLUE OCEAN FLOOR: justin timberlake


Frequencies so low Heart on a string A string that only plays solos Rain made of echoes Tidal wave rushing on and on... Under the water you scream so loud but the silence surrounds you But I hear it loud and you fall in the deep and I'll always find you... If my red eyes don't see you anymore And I can't hear you through the white noise Just send your heartbeat I'll go to the blue ocean floor Where they find us no more On that blue ocean floor On that blue ocean floor On that blue ocean floor On that blue ocean floor On that blue ocean floor... Shell made out of gold Found on a beach picked up and you held so close Rain washed out it's glow Heartbeat steadily leads me down below... Under the water you scream so loud but the silence surrounds you But I hear it loud and you fall in the deep and I'll always find you... If my red eyes don't see you anymore And I can't hear you through the white noise Just send your heartbeat I'll go to the blue ocean floor Where they find us no more On that blue ocean floor On that blue ocean floor On that blue ocean floor On that blue ocean floor On that blue ocean floor... 20, 000 leagues away, catch up to you on the same day Travel at the speed of light, thinking the same thoughts at the same time Heartbeat set at steady pace, I’ll let the rhythm show me the way No one can find us here, fade out and disappear... If my red eyes don't see you anymore And I can't hear you through the white noise Just send your heartbeat I'll go to the blue ocean floor Where they find us no more On that blue ocean floor On that blue ocean floor On that blue ocean floor On that blue ocean floor On that blue ocean floor...

TIS OF THEE: ani difranco


They caught the last poor man on a poor man's vacation The cuffed him and they confiscated his stuff They dragged his black ass down to the station... And said, okay, the streets are safe now All your pretty white children can come out and see spot run And they came out of their houses And they looked around but they didn't see no one... My country 'tis of thee To take swings at each other on the talk show TV Why don't you just go ahead and turn off the sun 'cause we'll never live long enough To undo everything they've done to you Undo everything they've done to you... Above 96th street They're handin' out smallpox blankets so people don't freeze. The old dogs have got a new trick It's called criminalize the symptoms while you spread the disease... And I hold on hard to something Between my teeth when I'm sleeping I was up and my jaw aches And the earth is full of earthquakes... My country 'tis of thee To take shots at each other on prime time TV Why don't you just go ahead and turn off the sun 'cause we'll never live long enough To undo everything they've done to you Undo everything they've done to you... And I'm trying to see through the glare Yes, I'm struggling just to see what is there The one person who really knows me best, says I'm like a cat... The kind of cat that you can't pick up and throw into your lap No, the kind that doesn't mind being held only when it's her idea Yeah, the kind that feels what she decides to feel When she's good and ready to feel it... Now I am prowling through the backyard And I am hiding under the car I have gotten out of everything, I've gotten into so far I eat when I am hungry and I travel alone And just outside the glow of the house Is where I feel most at home But in the window you sometimes appear And your music is faint in my ears...
