Arcade Fire – Put Your Money On Me

“….Put your money on me
‘Cause I can barely breathe
Put your money on me
Put your money on me
If you think I’m losing you, you must be crazy
All your money on me
I’m never gonna let you go, even when it’s easy
Put your money on me
Go tuck me into bed, and wake me when I’m dead
I know that you gotta be free
But I’m never gonna let it go
If there was a race
A race for your heart
It started before you were born
Above the chloroform sky
Clouds made of ambien
Sitting on carpets in the basement of heaven
We were born innocent, but it lies today…….”

Pick of the Day

“……..Don’t go down to Fannin Street
Once I held you in my arms
I was sure
But I took that silent stare
Through the guilded door
The desire to have much more
All the glitter and the roar
I know this is where
The sidewalk ends
Don’t go down to Fannin Street
Don’t go down to Fannin Street………….”

My pick of the day

“Broken bones and rolling stones
Just be careful now my love
Know your worth
My regrets have all been said
So just be careful now my love
Know your worth

All your fears and all your heart
Will hold you gently with both arms and
All your smiles and all your ways
Will stay with me for all my days….”

“Steer your way”

“Steer your way through the ruins
Of the altar and the mall
Steer your way through the fables
Of creation and the fall
Steer your way past the palaces
That rise above the rot
Year by year
Month by month
Day by day
Thought by thought
Steer your heart past the truth
You believed in yesterday
Such as fundamental goodness
And the wisdom of the way
Steer your heart, precious heart
Past the women whom you bought
Year by year
Month by month
Day by day
Thought by thought….”
