i feel like people either love or hate björk, but she is my favourite artist, and this song one of my all-time favourites of hers
Play Dead -
Darling stop
confusing me
With your
wishful thinking
Hopeful embraces
Don't you understand?
I have to go
through this
I
belong to here where
No-one
cares and no-one loves
No
light no air to live in
A
place called hate
The city of fear
I play dead
It
stops the hurting
I play dead
And
hurting stops
It's
sometimes just like sleeping
Curling up
inside my
private tortures
I
nestle into pain
Hug suffering
Caress
every ache
I play dead
It
stops the hurting
<< love this woman! love her stuff with Sabres of paradise especially >>

The Smashing Pumpkins- Annie-Dog
Amphetamine Annie-dog
Has her leash and a face
Her velvet spleen her shackle spine
Her diamond curse
It comes with mine
A vessel she
For violent I
Confession arms a wake
Mine, mine you were always mine
Possessed by my taste
And below the angel dog
Combs her hair and sings her psalms
The bombs go off
She doesn't notice
It all goes wrong
She sets things tragic
She is Venus
She is mars
She's electric
And the struggle of
Upon my face we leave no trace
But in her stomach mercury aged
She holds the blood
She carves the knives
She digs the wives in our babies
Amphetamine Annie-dog
Pulls her trash
And her stories
From place to place
And bed to bed
Gives of herself and the magnet head
Another floor another ceiling
Counting stairs with double…
The Smashing Pumpkins - Tonight, Tonight (Official Music Video)
Lyrics
Time is never time at all
You can never ever leave
Without leaving a piece of youth
And our lives are forever changed
We will never be the same
The more you change the less you feel
Believe, believe in me, believe, believe
That life can change that you're not stuck in vain
We're not the same, we're different
Tonight, tonight
Tonight, so bright
Tonight, tonight
And you know you're never sure
But you're sure you could be right
If you held yourself up to the light
And the embers never fade
In your city by the lake
The place where you were born
Believe, believe in me, believe, believe
In the resolute urgency of now
And if you believe there's not a chance
Tonight, tonight
Tonight, so bright
Tonight, tonight
We'll crucify the insincere tonight
(Tonight)
We'll make things right, we'll feel it all tonight
We'll find a way to offer up the night
(Tonight)
The indescribable moments of your life
(Tonight)
The impossible is possible tonight
(Tonight)
Believe in me as I believe in you
Tonight
Tonight, tonight
Tonight
Tonight
