The Mercy Seat

by Nick Cave

It began when they come took me from my home
And put me in Dead Row,
Of which I am nearly wholly innocent,
And I'll say it again
I..am..not..afraid..to..die.

Everybody Knows

by Leonard Cohen

Everybody knows that the dice are loaded,
Everybody rolls with their fingers crossed.
Everybody knows the war is over,
Everybody knows the good guys lost.
Everybody knows the fight was fixed,
The poor stay poor, the rich get rich.
That's how it goes.
Everybody knows.

English Song Lyrics - May

Ordinary Day

by Dolores O'Riordan

This is just an ordinary day,
Wipe the insecurities away.
I can see that the darkness will erode,
Lookin' out the corner of my eye.
I can see that the sunshine will explode,
Far across the desert in the sky.

How many sorrows
Do you try to hide
In a world of illusion
That's covering your mind?
I'll show you something good
Oh I'll show you something good
When you open your mind
You'll discover the sign
That there's something
You're longing to find..
