  • The Tortured Poets Department. An anthology of new works that reflect events, opinions and sentiments from a fleeting and fatalistic moment in time – one that was both sensational and sorrowful in equal measure. This period of the author’s life is now over, the chapter closed and boarded up. There is nothing to avenge, no scores to settle once wounds have healed. And upon further reflection, a good number of them turned out to be self-inflicted. This writer is of the firm belief that our tears become holy in the form of ink on a page. Once we have spoken our saddest story, we can be free of it.

    And then all that’s left behind is the tortured poetry.

    THE TORTURED POETS DEPARTMENT is out now.2w

Lyrics

Waiter send this to the table, the party of one
The only other lonely soul in this place
And so you’re finishing up your coffee
But then where you’re gonna run?
Where’d you get that look on your face?

You should always let the sun go down on your anger
Let it burn you to sleep
Bring it closer to danger
To surrender and retreat
Sing your sad soul to sleep

I loved you the first time I saw you
And you know I love you still
But I am tired
And I am yours

Don’t even think about your freedom
Or taking that flight
Or going back upon your promise after fighting for the right
Because your eggshells and your right statements
And your weaponized words
Are paper tigers now

Oh your constant overthinking and your secretive drinking
Are making you more and more alone
And girl, you can slam the door behind you
It ain’t ever gonna close
Because when you’re home, you’re already home

I am tired
I am tired
I don’t wanna go home anymore
I don’t wanna throw stones anymore
I don’t wanna take part in the war

I loved you the first time I saw you
And you know I love you still
I loved you the first time I saw you
And you know I love you still

I don’t wanna be right anymore
Lord, I don’t wanna fight anymore
I’m not taking your side anymore
I am tired
I am not my own
And I am leaving
Oh, I am tired
And I’m coming home

‘Cause I am yours,
I am yours, I am yours,
I am yours, I am yours
I am yours,
I am yours, I am yours
I am yours, I am yours

John Legend – All of Me #musicaware

John Legend – All of Me

All Of Me

John Legend

What would I do without your smart mouth?
Drawing me in, and you kicking me out
You’ve got my head spinning, no kidding, I can’t pin you down

What’s going on in that beautiful mind?
I’m on your magical mystery ride
And I’m so dizzy, don’t know what hit me, but I’ll be alright

My head’s under water
But I’m breathing fine
You’re crazy and I’m out of my mind’

Cause all of me
Loves all of you
Love your curves and all your edges
All your perfect imperfections

Give your all to me
I’ll give my all to you
You’re my end and my beginning
Even when I lose I’m winning’

Cause I give you all of me
And you give me all of you, oh

How many times do I have to tell you
Even when you’re crying you’re beautiful too
The world is beating you down, I’m around through every mood

You’re my downfall, you’re my muse
My worst distraction, my rhythm and blues
I can’t stop singing, it’s ringing, in my head for you

My head’s under water
But I’m breathing fine
You’re crazy and I’m out of my mind’

Cause all of me
Loves all of you
Love your curves and all your edges
All your perfect imperfections

Give your all to me
I’ll give my all to you
You’re my end and my beginning
Even when I lose I’m winning’

Cause I give you all of me
And you give me all of you, oh

Cards on the table, we’re both showing hearts
Risking it all, though it’s hard’

Cause all of me
Loves all of you
Love your curves and all your edges
All your perfect imperfections

Give your all to me
I’ll give my all to you
You’re my end and my beginning
Even when I lose I’m winning’

Cause I give you all of me
And you give me all of you, of you
I give you all of me
And you give me all of you, oh

Trisha Yearwood – How Do I Live Without You #performart

How Do I Live

LeAnn Rimes

How do I get through one night without you
If I had to live without you
What kinda life would that be
Oh I, I need you in my arms, need you to hold
You’re my world, my heart, my soul

If you ever leave
Well, baby you would take away everything
Good in my life
And tell me now

How do I live without you?
I want to know
How do I breathe without you?
If you ever go
How do I ever, ever survive
How do I, how do I, oh how do I live

Without you
There’d be no sun in my sky
There would be no love in my life
There’d be no world left for me

And I, well baby, I don’t know what I would do
I’d be lost if I lost you

If you ever leave
Well, baby you would take away everything
Real in my life
And tell me now

How do I live without you
I want to know
How do I breathe without you
If you ever go
How do I ever, ever survive
How do I, how do I, oh how do I live

Please tell me baby how do I go on

If you ever leave
Well, baby you would take away everything
Need you with me
Baby don’t you know that you’re everything
Good in my life

And tell me now
How do I live without you
I want to know
How do I breathe without you
If you ever go
How do I ever, ever survive
How do I, how do I, oh how do I live

How do I live without you?
How do I live without you, baby?
How do I live

Kacey Musgraves – Butterflies (Audio)

Butterflies

Kacey Musgraves

I was just coastin’, never really goin’ anywhere
Caught up in a web, I was gettin’ kind of used to stayin’ there
And out of the blue
I fell for you

Now you’re liftin’ me up, ‘stead of holdin’ me down
Stealin’ my heart, ‘stead of stealin’ my crown
Untangled all the strings, round my wings, that were tied
I didn’t know him and I didn’t know me
Cloud nine, was always out of reach
Now I remember what it feels like to fly
You give me butterflies

Kiss full of color, makes me wonder where you’ve always been
I was hiding in doubt ’til you brought me out of my chrysalis
And I came out new
All because of you

Now you’re liftin’ me up, ‘stead of holdin’ me down
Stealin’ my heart, ‘stead of stealin’ my crown
Untangled all the strings, round my wings, that were tied
I didn’t know him and I didn’t know me
Cloud nine, was always out of reach
Now I remember what it feels like to fly
You give me butterflies
Yeah, you give me butterflies

Now you’re liftin’ me up, ‘stead of holdin’ me down
You’re takin’ my hand, ‘stead of takin’ my crown

Untangled all the strings, round my wings, that were tied
I didn’t know him and I didn’t know me
Cloud nine, was always out of reach
Now I remember what it feels like to fly
You give me butterflies, hmm hmm hmm
You give me butterflies, hmm hmm hmm

Gilbert Bécaud – A Little Love and Understanding

A Little Love And Understanding

Lyrics

You’re on your own
And what you need’s
A little love and understanding, hee-hee-hee
A little warmth to tell your soul
A gentle bird that softly sings, hee-hee-hee-hee

Each night my voice happens to sneak
Through your transistor radio, ho-ho-ho
I’m just a secret you can keep
And no one ever needs to know

You’re in that city far away
I’m on the ship way out at sea
You got some problems you can’t face
So leave them behind, any place

For out of sight is out of mind
And in time, and in time, and in time, and in time, and in time
You’ll find peace of mind
Ho-ho-kay-ay (okay), good, good

You’re room is like a desert isle
You often filled with silent tears, hmm-hmm-hmm
So grab your coat, put on a smile
Go out and buy yourself some cheer, hee-hee-hee-hee
Why sit there thinking of the past
Recounting empty days gone by, hah-hah-hah
When you should make each moment last
It isn’t hard to do, just try

Drink to the city far away
To all the sailors ‘way at sea
All those problems you can’t face
So leave them behind, any place

For out of sight is out of mind
And in time, and in time, and in time, and in time, and in time
You’ll find peace of mind
O-kay, hm-hm, (okay), good

Gilbert Bécaud
