Primitive (The Way I Treat You) - Ambulance LTD

Feel sick without you, and I can't let you go
I told you I don't want to, but you don't let me say no
I drop a wire to your mom and your dad and say
"Relax, don't think about the way I treat you." Huh

Shake humble hands with a faraway neighbor
Take part in

When I look into your eyes
Then I know that life's worth living
Just without you
More or less, there's nothing left to tell

All the years we shared our time
All the things we had in common
All the crisis
More or less, we've nothing left to tell

All excuses, all your plights
All your nice ideas
Effusions

If it seems a little time is needed
Decisions to be made
The good advice of friends unheeded
The best of plans mislaid

Just looking for a new direction
In an old familiar way
The forming of a new connection
To study or to play

And so the conversation turned.
Until the sun went down
And many fantasies

Signs point in every direction, advertising a one-night heaven
Got no clue what's driving us
Blind as hell and burning up with your love

Practice my practical math and hide in the van while I'm counting the cashbox
Beads of sweat falling one by one at a Valero station in the California sun.

Half A World Away - R.E.M.

If I had my time again
I would do it all the same
And not change a single thing
Even when I was to blame

For the heartache and the pain
That I caused throughout my years
How I learned to be a man
Through the laughter and the tears

Situation no win
Rush for a change of atmosphere

Put your face up to the window
Tell me all about your "gay folks."
It feels better when you're in it
If you're nervous, use the pay phone

Put your face where we can see it
Put it on a show on cable
You can really show it all there
Turn it on when you are able

I am the passenger, and I ride and I ride
I ride through the city's backsides
I see the stars come out of the sky
Yeah, the bright and hollow sky
You know it looks so good tonight

I am the passenger
I stay under glass
I look through my window so bright
I see the stars come out tonight

Soldier keep on marching on
Head down till the work is done
Waiting on that morning sun
Soldier keep on marching on

Head in the dust, feet in the fire
Labor on that midnight wire
Listening for that angel choir
You got nowhere to run

You wanna take a drink of that promised land
Gotta wipe the dirt off of your hands

Oh, my life
Is changing every day
In every possible way
And oh, my dreams
It's never quite as it seems
Never quite as it seems

I know I've felt like this before
But now I'm feeling it even more
Because it came from you
Then I open up and see
The person falling here is me
A different way to
