KATIE NOONAN/Special Ones

wow this is a really fresh jazzy Katie Noonan Version - I like the George version too though.



Isn't it funny how you never really screamed at my face,
but your anger so unspoken and unchannelled permeates
my essence to the point where
I Don't want to see you hear you,
be anywhere near you,
you probably think I'm threatened by you
but your illusionary power doesn't threaten me
Actually I think it's kind of funny that you create
an illusion that is a mirror,
I don't appreciate you and I know that that surprises you
I suppose you see that those who follow their heart always win,
those with integrity have won the match before it's begun

So rather than being kicked around,
I'm going to kick you to the curb
So rather than being pushed around,
I'm going to push you away first

So rather than trying to protect you,
I'm going to cover my basses first
So rather than trying to open my heart,
I'm going to lock it with a key
So that only the special ones,
so that only the special ones,
can ever get through to me

Some can see beyond the barrier of threshold
whereas others can't see beyond their sculptured mould,
you could offer me nothing,
you could offer me nothing that I need
Do you think I'm asking too much?
A kind of respect and trust that shouldn't even be questioned,
how can I open my heart with dishonesty sitting next to me?
I've honoured your honour to the point of embarrassment,
but innocence in the hands of the guilt-free is kicked to,
is kicked to the curb I was ashamed of my innocence,
I was ashamed of my innocence but now with clarity I see
that your bullshit is just not worthy of me

I don't want to be angry....
This is not worthy of me and now with clarity
I see that I can walk away, I can walk away

Radiohead/ The National Anthem (in Paris) and in HD



I love this song...dark and disturbing...lol exactly what the city is to me...and probably exactly why I put this disc in before 7am in the morning and turned the volume up in response to my inconsiderate druggy deranged loud singing at all hours neighbour. This song is antidotal in that way...so strange how even the lyrics totally reflect my sentiments re city living- hilarious!

Everyone
Everyone around here
Everyone is so near
What's going on?
What's going on?

Everyone
Everyone is so near
Everyone has got the fear
What's going on?
What's going on?

What's going on?
What's going on?
What's going on?
