We will not go down

We Will Not Go Down

A blinding flash of white light
Lit up the sky over Gaza tonight
People running for cover
Not knowing whether they’re dead or alive

They came with their tanks and their planes
With ravaging fiery flames
And nothing remains
Just a voice rising up in the smoky haze

We will not go down
In the night, without a fight
You can burn up our mosques and our homes and our schools
But our spirit will never die
We will not go down
In Gaza tonight

Women and children alike
Murdered and massacred night after night
While the so-called leaders of countries afar
Debated on who’s wrong or right

But their powerless words were in vain
And the bombs fell down like acid rain
But through the tears and the blood and the pain
You can still hear that voice through the smoky haze

We will not go down
In the night, without a fight
You can burn up our mosques and our homes and our schools
But our spirit will never die
We will not go down
In Gaza tonight

Tiger Lily

we drive tonight,
and you are by my side.
We’re talking about our lives,
like we’ve known each other forever.

the time flies by,
with the sound of your voice.
its close to paradise,
with the end surely near.

and if i could only stop the car
and hold onto you,
and never let go (and never let go)
i’ll never let go (i’ll never let go)

as we round the corner
to your house
you turned to me and said,
“i’ll be going through withdrawal of you
for this one night we have spent.”

and, i want to speak these words
but i guess i’ll just bite my tongue,
and accept “someday, somehow”
as the words that we’ll hang from.

and i (i..), i don’t want to speak these words.
’cause i (’cause i..), i don’t want to make things any worse.
and i (i..), i don’t want to speak these words.
’cause i, i don’t want to make things any worse.

why does tonight, have to end?
why don’t we hit restart,
and pause it at our favorite parts.
we’ll skip the goodbyes.

if i had it my way,
i’d turn the car around and runaway,
just you and i.

and i (i..), i don’t want to speak these words.
’cause i (’cause i..), i don’t want to make things any worse. (any worse)
and i (i..), i don’t want to speak these words
’cause i, i don’t want to make things
and i, i don’t want to make things any worse

Flightless Bird, American Mouth

Flightless Bird, American Mouth

I was a quick wet boy, diving too deep for coins
All of your street light eyes wide on my plastic toys
Then when the cops closed the fair, I cut my long baby hair
Stole me a dog-eared map and called for you everywhere

Have I found you
Flightless bird, jealous, weeping or lost you, american mouth
Big pill looming

Now I’m a fat house cat
Nursing my sore blunt tongue
Watching the warm poison rats curl through the wide fence cracks
Pissing on magazine photos
Those fishing lures thrown in the cold
And clean blood of Christ mountain stream

Have I found you
Flightless bird, grounded, bleeding or lost you, american mouth
Big pill stuck going down

Goyang Duyu

Goyang Duyu

Jika hatimu terluka karena sesuatu
Jika kau mencari cara tuk obati dirimu
Marilah kawanku, marilah bersamaku
Biarkanlah laguku coba menghibur dirimu

Cobalah dicoba
Namanya goyang acak
Goyang paling kocak
Dan bisa bikin ngakak
Please jangan ditolak
Ikutlah bergerak
Tunggu musiknya
Tunggu musiknya

* Ayo goyang duyu
Bebaskanlah hatimu
Ayo goyang duyu
Simpan saja gengsimu
Asyik… Asyik…
Angkat jempolnya asyik
Asyik… Asyik…
Angkat jempolnya asyik

Jika hatimu terluka dan membuatmu lesu
Jika kau mencari cara tuk obati dirimu
Marilah kawanku, bangkitlah semangatmu
Biarkan laguku coba menghibur dirimu
Lupakan sedihmu
Sakit hatimu
Jangan siksa dirimu
Tersenyumlah
Hapuslah sesalmu
Air matamu
Hiburkan hatimu
Goyang bersamaku

Back to *
Dari tua dan yang muda
Laki-laki perempuan
Ayo semua jangan ditahan

Back to *

Asyik… Asyik…
Angkat jempolnya asyik
Asyik… Asyik…
Angkat jempolnya asyik
Asyik… Asyik…
Angkat jempolnya asyik
Asyik….
