LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: WOLF/TROPHY WIFE

Diretto da Joseph Keirs e Sef Tedder

Now I know
My unholy road
Just your passenger
Now I know

This is not my home
I’m your passenger

Let go, let go
Let go, let go
Let go, let go
Let go, let go

Just your passenger
Just your passenger
Just a passenger
Just your passenger

So now I know
To live alone
To live alone

Let go, let go
Let go, let go
Let go, let go

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: TERRIBLE LOVE (ALTERNATE VERSION)/THE NATIONAL

It’s a terrible love that I’m walking with spiders
It’s a terrible love that I’m walking with
It’s a terrible love that I’m walking with spiders
It’s a terrible love that I’m walking with
It’s quiet company
It’s quiet company

It’s a terrible love and I’m walking with spiders
It’s a terrible love that I’m walking in
It’s a terrible love and I’m walking with spiders
It’s a terrible love that I’m walking in
It’s quiet company
It’s quiet company
It’s quiet company

And I can’t fall asleep
Without a little help
It takes awhile to settle down
My ship of hopes
Wait 'til the past lets by

It takes an ocean not to break
It takes an ocean not to break
It takes an ocean not to break
It takes an ocean not to break
Company
It’s quite company
It’s quiet company

But I won’t follow you
Into the rabbit hole
I said I would but then I saw
Your shivered bones
They didn’t want me to

It’s a terrible love and I’m walking with spiders
It’s a terrible love that I’m walking here
It’s a terrible love that I’m walking with spiders
It’s a terrible love that I’m walking here

It takes an ocean not to break
It takes an ocean not to break
It takes an ocean not to break

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: BEHIND THE DRAPES/MEW

All of us now
Bent as we fall
To amorous light
We call out

Why are we so alone
Even with company
If not the moon
Will us guide
Will then the street light?

All of us now
Breathe it like smoke
To know what it's like
Breathing to choke
Well for nine days
A small moth has
Tried to escape
Our bedroom

Why are we so alone
Even with company
We are the prey
For each day
A striking distance

Why are we so alone
Even with company
If not the moon
Will us guide
Will then the street light?
Why are we so alone
Even with company
We are the prey
For each day
A striking distance

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: SPIDERS AND FLIES/MERCURY REV

Plans and schemes
Thoughts and dreams
Who cares what they mean
When they work they're amazing things
When they don't I hear you scream
Spiders and flies
Live and die
Six legs to stand on and two wings to fly
I can't remember and I can't decide
What was the season and the color of your eyes
Eyes

Pharaohs and kings
Favorite queens
Buried with their precious rings
When they lived they loved complete
But in their tombs I hear them scream
Spiders and flies
Live and die
Six legs to stand on and two wings to fly
I can't remember and I can't decide
What was the season and the color of your eyes
Eyes

Psalms and spells
Magic blast
Who cares what they cast
I dreamed I'd always love you complete
I never thought I'd hear you scream
Spiders and flies
Live and die
Eight legs to stand on and two wings to fly
It makes you wonder, why can't I
What was the reason for the color of your eyes
Eyes

Spiders and flies
Live and die
Eight legs to stand on and two wings to fly
It makes you wonder, why can't I
What was the reason for the color of your eyes
Eyes

On candystripe legs the spiderman comes
Softly through the shadow of the evening sun
Stealing past the windows of the blissfully dead
Looking for the victim shivering in bed
Searching out fear in the gathering gloom
And suddenly a movement in the corner of the room
And there is nothing I can do
And I realise with fright
That the spiderman is having me for dinner tonight

Quietly he laughs and shaking his head
Creeps closer now
Closer to the foot of the bed
And softer than shadow and quicker than flies
His arms are around me and his tongue in my eyes
"Be still be calm be quiet now my precious boy
Don't struggle like that or I will only love you more"
But it's much too late to get away or turn on the light
The spiderman is having you for dinner tonight

And I feel like I'm being eaten
By a thousand million shivering furry holes
And I know that in the morning I will wake up
In the shivering cold

The spiderman is always hungry
