Everyone
Everyone around here
Everyone is so near
It's holding on
It's holding on

Everyone
Everyone is so near
Everyone has got the fear
It's holding on
It's holding on

It's holding on
It's holding on
It's holding on

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: THE CHEMICALS BETWEEN US/BUSH





I want you to remember
A love so full it could send us all ways
I want you to surrender
All my feelings rose today
And I want you to remain
The power of children can amaze
I'll try not to complain
I know that's a pisser baby

The chemicals between us
The walls that lie between us
Lie in this bed
The chemicals displaced
There is no lonlier state
Lie in this bed

I want you to remember
Everything you said
Every driven word
Like a hammer
Hell to my head

The chemicals between us
The walls that lie between us
Then lie in this bed
The chemicals displaced
There is no lonlier face
Lie in this bed
The chemicals between us
The chemicals between us
Lie in this bed

We are the hollow men
We are the naked ones
We never meant you harm
Never meant you wrong
I'd like to thank
All of my lovers

The chemicals between us
The army of achievers
Lie in this bed
The chemicals displaced
There is no lonlier state
Lie in this bed
The chemicals between us
The chemicals between us
Chemicals

The chemicals between us

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: WHERE DID ALL THE LOVE GO?/KASABIAN





Ever took a punch
In the ribcage sonny
Never met a soul
Who had no shrine
Keep this all in your mind
And get it inside my window
What do we become
Trying to kill each other
You’re faking it son
Gonna get you tonight
I suck another breath
To the hearts of the revolution
'Cause you still ain’t right

Where did all the love go?
I don’t know, I don’t know
'Cause you can't see it
Where did all the love go?
I don’t know, I don’t know
I bet you can't see it

Gotta see the signs
Of a real change a coming
Take another sip
From this hobo’s wine
Get yourself a million miles
From this concrete jungle
This is a time
Full of fear full of anger
A heroe’s exchange for a telephone line
Whatever happened to the youth of this generation?
Because it still ain’t right

Where did all the love go?
I don’t know, I don’t know
I bet you can't see it
Where did all the love go?
Well, I don’t know why
Oh, why

The rivers on the pavement
Are flowing now with blood
The children of the future
Are drowning in the flood

Where did all the love go?
Well, I don’t know why
Oh, why

In this social chaos
There’s violence in the air
Gotta keep your wits about you
Be careful not to stare

Where did all the love go?
I don’t know, I don’t know
Because you don't see it
Where did all the love go?
Well, I don’t know why
Oh, why
I bet you can't see it

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: 2+2=5/RADIOHEAD





Are you such a dreamer?
To put the world to rights
I'll stay home forever
Where two and two always makes up five
I'll lay down the tracks
Sandbag and hide
January has april showers
And two and two always makes up five

It's the devil's way now
There is no way out
You can scream and you can shout
It is too late now
Because

You have not been paying attention
Paying attention
Paying attention
Paying attention
You have not been paying attention
Paying attention
Paying attention
Paying attention
You have not been paying attention
Paying attention
Paying attention
Paying attention
You have not been paying attention
Paying attention
Paying attention
Paying attention

I try to sing along
I get it all wrong
'Cause I'm not
'Cause I'm not
I swat 'em like flies but
Like flies the burgers
Keep coming back
Not
Maybe not
All hail to the thief
All hail to the thief
But I'm not
But I'm not
But I'm not
But I'm not
Don't question my authority
Or put me in the dock
'Cause I'm not
'Cause I'm not
Go and tell the king
That the sky is falling in
When it's not
When it's not
When it's not
Maybe not
Maybe not

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: DEAD THINGS/EMILIANA TORRINI





You're like me
We're both alone
What's the problem
I don't know
With the same high
The same eyes
But you can't borrow my clothes all the time

Bad things
Dead things
Sad things have to happen
Sometimes

I let the snow
Melt in my mouth
Until my head hurts
Until I'm out
Makes me laugh a bit
Makes me cry
Same way you confuse me all the time

Bad things
Dead things
Sad things have to happen

Bad things
Dead things
Sad things have to happen
Bad things
Dead things
Sad things have to happen
Sometimes
Sometimes
Sometimes
Sometimes

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: THE RACING RATS/EDITORS





When the time comes
You're no longer here
Fall down to my knees
Begin my nightmare
Words spill from my drunken mouth
I just can't keep them all in
I keep up with the racing rats
and do my best to win

Slow down little one
You can't keep running away
You musn't go outside yet
It's not your time to play
Standing at the edge of your town
With the skyline in your eyes
Reaching up to god
The sun says its goodbye

If a plane were to fall from the sky
How big a hole would it leave
In the surface of the earth

Let's pretend we never met
Let's pretend we're on our own
We'll live different lives
Until our cover's blown
I push my hands up to the sky
Shade my eyes from the sun
As the dust settles around me
Suddenly night time has begun

If a plane were to fall from the sky
How big a hole would it leave
In the surface of the earth
The surface of the earth

Come on now
You knew you were lost
But you carried on anyway
Come on now
You knew you had no time
But you let the day drift away

If a plane were to fall from the sky
How big a hole would it leave
And if a plane were to fall from the sky
How big a hole would it make
In the surface of the earth
The surface of the earth
The surface of the earth

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: DICE/FINLEY QUAYE FEAT. BETH ORTON





I was crying over you
I am smiling
I think of you
Where your garden have no walls
Breathe in the air if you care
You compare, don't say farewell

Nothing can compare
To when you roll the dice and swear that your love's for me
Nothing can compare
To when you roll the dice and swear that your love's for me

I was crying over you
I am smiling
I think of you
Misty morning and water falls
Breathe in the air if you care
You compare, don't say farewell

Nothing can compare
To when you roll the dice and swear your love's for me
Nothing can compare
To when you roll the dice and swear your love's for me
Nothing can compare
To when you roll the dice and swear your love's for me

Virtuous sensibility
Escape velocity

Nothing can compare
To when you roll the dice and swear your love's for me
Nothing can compare
To when you roll the dice and swear your love's for me
Nothing can compare
To when you roll the dice and swear your love's for me
Breathe in the air if you care
You compare, don't say farewell
Nothing

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: SIGNS/BLOC PARTY





Two ravens in the old oak tree
One for you and one for me
Bluebells in the late december
I see signs now all the time
The last time we slept together
There was something that was not there
You never wanted to alarm me
But I’m the one that’s drowning now

I could sleep forever these days
'Cause in my dreams I see you again
But this time fleshed out fuller face
In your confirmation dress
It was so like you to visit me to
Let me know you were ok
It was so like you visit me
Always worrying about someone else

At your funeral I was so upset
So upset
In your life you were larger than this
Statuesque

I see signs now all the time
That your not dead your sleeping
I believe in anything
That brings you back home to me
I see signs now all the time
That your not dead your sleeping
I believe in anything
That brings you back home to me

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: FOLLOW THE COPS BACK HOME/PLACEBO





The call to arms was never true
Time to imbibe here’s to you
I’ll tell you stories bruised and blue
Of drum machines and landslides
Just one more round before we’re through
More psychedelic yuppie flu
It’s such a silly thing to do
Now we’re stuck on rewind

Let’s follow the cops back home
Follow the cops back home
Let’s follow the cops back home
And rob their houses

The call to arms was never true
Let’s take a ride and push it through
Suspended animation glue
Blame it on apartheid
Let’s spend the night in Jimmy shoes
I’ll give you coats and cheap shampoo
I’ll give you nothing else to do
Now we’re stuck on rewind

Let’s follow the cops back home
Follow the cops back home
Let’s follow the cops back home
And rob their houses
Let’s follow the cops back home
Follow the cops back home
Let’s follow the cops back home
and rob their houses

The call to arms was never true
I’m medicated, how are you?
Let’s take a dive, swim right through
Sophisticated points of view

Let’s follow the cops back home
Follow the cops back home
Let’s follow the cops back home
And rob their houses
Let’s follow the cops back home
Follow the cops back home
Let’s follow the cops back home
And rob their houses

Born a wicked sign
Born a wicked sign
I see why we'll become unreal
I see why we'll become unreal
Unreal

We follow the earth
We follow the earth
Arise in the sky
Arise in this sky
In this sky

Born a wicked sign
Born a wicked sign
I see why we'll become unreal
I see why we'll become unreal
Unreal

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: THE LEAVERS DANCE/THE VEILS





Berenice
My hands my feet are worn
As much as yours are
And though my head my hands my heart are forming
They still feel worlds apart

Berenice
Beneath it all you're golden
And that's all I´m feeding on
And though my head my hands are growing colder
We move circles now

Berenice there's no release at all
That's not worth dying for

Berenice
My hands my feet are worn
As much as yours are

Berenice there's no release at all
That's not worth dying for
And it's not for our desires but our design
That we all fall apart

Berenice there's no release at all
It's worthless crying for
And I'm on my knees and on my knees and down
'Cause we all fall down
