Mark Lenover - Orpheus Lyrics
She was the picture of beauty and grace
He bottled her magic and fixed her in place
His music was written all over her face
He mined her perfection and chipped it away,
Reducing his lover to poems and paint
As his gaze grew distorte...
The Buttertones - Orpheus Under The Influence Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I feel bored tonight
I look to my guitar she's shaking her head, shaking her head
She says
You've been a bad bad guy
You can no longer play or sing because your head's in the sink
[Chorus]
Orpheus

Mark Lenover - Always Take Your Medicine Lyrics
I'm just a bundle of suppressed nervous ticks
My medication is making me sick
A fog upon the brain
A stagnant cloud which neither storms nor dissipates
I was a fury of force and holy fits
I was a turbulent, productive narcissist...
Mark Lenover - The Coup Lyrics
It's so dark, underground
We're drunk on Marx
A dozen rounds plus one
Come out with your hands up, or you die
Throw your guns down and reach for the sky
The chopping block
The cold gray cells
We'll make them talk
We...
Mark Lenover - Mean Old Missus Schmidt Lyrics
She showed up at her psychiatrist
She blew her nose, and he looked delighted
The tumours spilled out into her handkerchief
The good doctor lit his pipe and grinned
'Cause everybody knows her paranoia
Was solely cause by a trans-di...
Arcade Fire - It's Never Over Lyrics
Hey, Orpheus!
I'm behind you
Don't turn around
I can find you
Just wait until it's over
Wait until it's through
And if I call for you
Oh, Orpheus!
Just sing for me all night
We'll wait until it's o...
Mark Lenover - Love Song Lyrics
Baby girl, you know I love you
You know I'll never let go of you
And if we ever lose each other
I'll meet you at our table in the dark
Baby girl, you know I love you
You know I'll never get tired of you
I'll alwa...
Mark Lenover - Down Lyrics
Now, to face the sunrise
The breaking of the waves
Come all yea feckless invalids
It's time to face the day
As you walk upon eggshells
You swallow the flame
As you baulk at the mirror
You plaintively make your way
Down
Now, ...
Mark Lenover - Malice Lyrics
I'll leave you to sleep through your delicate fantasies
Leave you your eyes and your agonized smile
I'll leave you to hide behind sheltering lunacy
Tricks of the mind played out in black and white
I'll leave you alive, ...
Mark Lenover - The Sober Few Lyrics
The sidewalks are spinning underfoot
I think another drink would do me good
I think another round should set me straight
I'll raise another to the sober few
I wouldn't get too close if I were you
It's bound to put me p...
Mark Lenover - Hunger Lyrics
Give us your daughters
Bring us your sons
We've got some graves to fill
And a slaughterhouse to run
You will curse our names
Over and over and over and over again
Follow your master's lead
Yeah, he's so hungry
He'...
Mark Lenover - Burying Bernadette Lyrics
I buried a friend today
Poor thing, she went in a common sort of way
Such a pretty face, balanced on a bottle-neck
It makes you wonder why they'd bother
Sewing it back on
Do you think she came clean in the bath?
Bernadette lost h...
Lilly Wood & The Prick - No Mark Lyrics
Last October by the sea or the ocean, I don't really remember.
But anyway I met this guy, and we played cards.
I didn't really like him at first, I thought he was so pretentious.
But I was wrong and I realize that now.
You kn...
Mark Lenover - Vampires Lyrics
A parting kiss
A black arm-band
If you can't have it, no one can
I feel like I've been condemned
I feel like I'm burning at both ends
How did your spooks make out?
What are your informants on about?
Stop scratching at ...

Mark Lenover - Finch The Flincher Lyrics
Mr. Finch collects physicians, he calls them all his own
But each of them just looks at him and tells him to go home
Then panic closes in
I hope that whiney shit gets his
He might be sick, but it isn't catching
Though he's of...

Mark my words, that's all that I have

Mark Lenover - The Music Box Lyrics
He kept her locked,
In his mother's antique jewelry box
And she'd always spin when he called
Like a good little girl
She'd remind him of his mother and
The pin-up girls his father kept
A secret in the bottom of his dre...
Mark Lenover - It Howls Lyrics
It came up from the wetlands, under Waverly Hill
It came, quiet and crazy, then it stood perfectly still
It stunk of the tunnel, it stunk of dying too young
It had ash on it's eyelids and it had snow in it's lungs
And the even...
Mark Lenover - Medusa's Hair Lyrics
We've all learned how to hide
Behind decadent tricks of the mind
We savour the distance we sow
Between us and the rest of our kind
We're all mixed up
Each in noxious, insulating clouds
We're all mixed up,
Decked out i...
Mark Lenover - Repent Lyrics
Blank manifestos
The rustling of leaves
The lives of the scarecrows
The wind in the trees
The unnoticed rapture
A simple refrain:
'How is your master, and what is his name?'
How can what's lost be saved?
How can our d...
Mark Lenover - The Recital Lyrics
Give us a proper taste of lunacy
Stand up and give us a recital
Tell us of your psychotic fever dreams,
Of sickness of the soul and survival
Tell us all about degeneracy
And thick pharmaceutical pollution
Tell us all about the blight...
Mark Lenover - The Plagiarists Lyrics
When the knell sounds
We'll be called to account
And to justify
All the time that we've wasted ironing the emperor's new clothes
The cuckoo's are repeating,
'I know it all, I know.'
Just an echoing parod...
Mark Lenover - An Indelible Stain Lyrics
I am rushing at a bullet
And the bullet's standing still
My heart's racing toward a precipice
That contracts as winter kills
I am offering my poverty
I am offering my name
I am offering my sympathy
And an indelible stain

Kygo - Remind Me To Forget (feat. Miguel) Lyrics
[Verse 1]
It never fades away, it's staying
Your kiss like broken glass on my skin
And all the greatest loves end in violence
It's tearing up my voice, left in silence
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Baby, it hit so hard, holding on to my chest

Pixies - In The Arms Of Mrs. Mark Of Cain Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I'm not proud
But I know that I'm sane
Like a grouse
Who's resigned to the blade
If you doubt
And you think I'm profane
I'm in the arms of Mrs. Mark of Cain
[Pre-Chorus]

Speedy Ortiz - MKVI Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Drop donations in the box
Coats for curs and toys for tots
Give hearts for ex-hearts time forgot
Vaccinate the ones you love
Anesthesia so they can't feel you
When it's time to give 'em up
[Chorus]

Mark Lenover - The Girl In The Window Lyrics
He writes as he tilts his head
To catch the whispering, up with
The hiss of tape recorders
But there ain't nobody there
Oh no, there ain't nobody there
Then he goes out to the shops
That line up outside his house
He'll...

He Keeps On Quitting

MUNA - Memento Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Got a bee sting on the way back from your house
It was crawling up my leg inside my car
Something 'bout the way I had to pull it out
Never healed quite right and now I've got a scar

Issue No. 131 - The Courier Lyrics
Come the courier alone, the high road winds you loose,
Water smoothed the stones, but a weary figure stoops
Still in the night,
There's a curse he must find
Come the courier alone, and the flurry of suffering
Past the low sink...
Daniel Ingram - What My Cutie Mark Is Telling Me Lyrics

Channel Tres - Orpheus (Intro) Lyrics
Pop the pain

I haven't been giving a fuck
Since the seventh grade
Changing lanes
Changing lanes
Still in the whip
So fuck the fame
Can't look back
Can't look back
Can't look back

Parov Stelar - Beauty Mark Lyrics
I came across
Something I ain't wanna see

Photographs of you and me
Made me wanna chain smoke
Made me wanna drink some more
Now it seemed like yesterday
You were walking out that door
And lately, I've been thinking ...
Mark Morton - Blur Lyrics
(feat. Mark Morales of Fat Boys)

It never would aptly take my place along the line
Losing my fate, and faking through the days
Search for the motive keepin...

Well, now here's a dance
Everybody can do

The Color Morale - Scar Issue Lyrics
Today feels like it might be the wrong day for me to die.
I've been spending too much time believing in self-created lies
And words are just words, until they're put in to work.
And I'm standing so firm in this, firm in...
Mark Lenover - One In Six Lyrics
He'd tell his mother how to
Catch butterflies in plastic tubes
To crush, crush, crush them into paste
But now his neck-tie has him
He scours the newspaper for clues
About how his tails get tucked away
For the day, every day
