LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: 1000 MIRRORS/ASIAN DUB FOUNDATION FEAT. SINÉAD O'CONNOR

A scream, a shout far in the distance
Maybe the first or second floor
And curtains colour in the windows
Never seen behind closed doors
A silent sage behind the lightness
Domestic harmony for sure
Now send the mirrors of the marriage
Outside a world she'll never know

And as I see through the building
I'm falling straight into
A thousand broken mirrors I can't hide
And outside the bright lights
Can't hide the pain inside
And I've broken a thousand mirrors
Now it's time
Now it's time
Now it's time

Loving your children with a passion
Protecting them at any cost
Taking the only course of action
There's no more bridges left to cross
Who are the ones who are the guilty?
Who are the ones who wear the scars?
We must not leave our sisters bleeding
We sing this song for civil action

And as I stare through that window
I'm falling straight into
A thousand broken mirrors I can't hide
And outside the bright lights
What hide the pain inside
And I've broken a thousand mirrors
Now it's time
Now it's time
Now it's time

And as I stare through that window
I'm falling straight into
A thousand broken mirrors I can't hide
And outside the bright lights
Can't hide the pain inside
And I've broken a thousand mirrors
Now it's time
Now it's time

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: EVIL (SILVER ALERT REMIX)/GRINDERMAN FEAT. MATT BERNINGER

Oh baby, baby, baby
Oh my precious baby

Who needs the TV? You are my TV
Who needs a record player? You are my record player
Cling to me baby in this rented room
Cling to me baby in this rented room
And protect me from this evil

Hear the ringing on the telephone
A voice from a hundred miles away
Its breath is heavy and you're all alone
It's got something that it wants to say
Its breath is heavy and you're all alone
A voice so clear you can feel its breath
Coming down the telephone

Now it is the time that we must speak
They have divided us from our children
Who needs children? You are my child
Who needs children? My little lamb
Who needs children? You are my child
Crying like a demon in your daddy's hands

Oh baby, baby, baby
Oh my precious baby

You are the moon, who needs the moon?
You are the stars, who needs the stars?
You are the sea, who needs the sea?
Cling to me baby in this broken dream
And let me protect you from this evil
Let me protect you from this evil
Let me protect you from this evil

ALBUM: EVIL 12" for RECORD STORE DAY (2011)

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: HEAVY IN YOUR ARMS/FLORENCE AND THE MACHINE

I was a heavy heart to carry
My beloved was weighed down
My arms around his neck
My fingers laced a crown
I was a heavy heart to carry
My feet dragged across the ground
And he took me to the river
Where he slowly let me drown

My love has concrete feet
My love's an iron ball
Wrapped around your ankles
Over the waterfall

I'm so heavy, heavy, heavy in your arms
I'm so heavy, heavy, heavy in your arms

And is it worth the wait
All this killing time
Are you strong enough to stand
Protecting both your heart and mine
Who is the betrayer
Who's the killer in the crowd
The one who creeps in corridors
And doesn't make a sound

My love has concrete feet
My love's an iron ball
Wrapped around your ankles
Over the waterfall
My love has concrete feet
My love's an iron ball
Wrapped around your ankles
Over the waterfall

I'm so heavy, heavy, heavy in your arms
I'm so heavy, heavy, so heavy in your arms

This will be my last confession
I love you never felt like any blessing
Whisper it like it's a secret
Uttered to condemn the one who hears it
With a heavy heart

Heavy, heavy, I'm so heavy in your arms
Heavy, heavy, I'm so heavy in your arms
Heavy, heavy, I'm so heavy in your arms
Heavy, heavy, I'm so heavy in your arms

Heavy, I'm so heavy in your arms

ALBUM: THE TWILIGHT SAGA: ECLIPSE (2010)

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: BONES/EDITORS

How can you always be late for your arrival?
You know I'd forgive you every single time
Retreat, retreat
I've fallen at the low tide
Retreat, retreat
And meet me by the quayside

In the end all you can hope for
Is the love you felt to equal the pain you've gone through
Are your eyes showing off for mine
Your face in my hands is everything that I need

The system's put in place, put there to protect us
For you I'd throw a lifeline every time
Retreat, retreat
I've fallen at the low tide
Now retreat, retreat
And meet me by the quayside

In the end all you can hope for
Is the love you felt to equal the pain you've gone through
Are your eyes showing off for mine
Your face in my hands is everything that I need
Bones, starved of flesh
Surround your aching heart
Full of love
Bones, starved of flesh
Surround your aching heart
Full of love

Bones, starved of flesh
Surround your aching heart
Bones

I watch as your eyes show off for mine
I watch as your eyes show off
I watch as your eyes show off for mine
I watch as your eyes show off

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: RIVER OF BRAKELIGHTS/JULIAN CASABLANCAS

We might be in for a late night
Stuck in a lava flow of brakelights
I can hear a rattling bass drum
Driving back to where it came from
Sit back
I shop therefore I am the cause
Protect me from what I was

Getting the hang of it, getting the hang of it
Getting the hang of it, getting the hang of it
Getting the hang of it, getting the hang of it
Getting the hang of it, getting the hang of it
Timing is everything, timing is everything
Timing is everything, timing is everything
Timing is everything, timing is everything

I'm at your feet where creditors meet
We'll sho me a super night crossing roads or highways
In the afterlife of supercities
Rapidly devouring its outskirts
Redecorating late at night

No bad time for kids who hate sports
Mothers crying at the airport
Finding the dreams you left behind to do
Waving goodbye your young heart cries for you
Sit back
You're finding it out to get very far
We were born waiting alive
Grabbing the future by the eyes

Getting the hang of it, getting the hang of it
Timing is everything, timing is everything
Getting the hang of it, timing is everything
Getting the hang of it, timing is everything
Timing the hang of it, getting is everything
Getting the time of it, everything hangs on this
Hanging the getting of, timing the getting of

Like bodies we die
Like rivers we dry
We fuel and recharge the chimers and doors
Myself, myself
Lead my homeward bound
Where did you go?
You were my ride home
Is that what we want?
Is everything shot?
Is that what you ask for?
'Cause that's what we got

Love is destined
Love is there still

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: PAY FOR ME/WHALE

Please give up skin, when you forgive and believe me
Always waiting to shock (shock)

So for gods sake, live in me
Sugar daddy (ooh daddy daddy daddy)
A walking, talking, im low
Do what you want honey bow with your pain

Loving summer, you are spring coz your my Santa Claus machine
(love me)
Sugar daddy, hope you know i really think you gotta
pay for me

Blow up my chair
Go ahead suffer, dance around my handbag

What is love? but total affection
24 hours utter protection

Loving summer you are spring coz your my Santa Claus machine
(believe me)
Sugar daddy hope you know i really think you gotta pay for me

I'm so glad you ashamed
Running kula shaker birthday, the mix
When gravity kicks my ass you better pay (oh money money)
For my tits to be fixed

Loving summer you are spring coz your my Santa Claus machine
(leave me)
Sugar daddy hope you know i really think you gotta pay for me

Loving summer, you are spring coz your my Santa Claus machine
(love me)
Sugar daddy, hope you know i really think you gotta pay for me
