The war was lost
The treaty signed
I was not caught
I crossed the line
I was not caught
Though many tried
I live among you
Well disguised
I had to leave
My life behind
I dug some graves
You'll never find
The story's told
With facts and lies
I have a name
But nevermind
Nevermind (nevermind)
Nevermind (nevermind)
The war was lost (the war was lost)
The treaty signed (the treaty signed)
There's truth that lives (there's truth that lives)
And truth that dies (and truth that dies)
I don't know which (I don't know which)
So nevermind (so nevermind)
يا سلام على السلام يا سلام
يا سلام سلام على السلام
Your victory was so complete
Some among you
Thought to keep
A record of our little lives
The clothes we wore
Our spoons, our knives
The games of luck
Our soldiers played
The stones we cut
The songs we made
Our law of peace
Which understands
A husband leads
A wife commands
And all of this
Expressions of
The sweet indifference
Some call love
The high indifference
Some call fate
But we had names
More intimate
Names so deep and names so true (names so deep and names so true)
They're blood to me (they're blood to me)
And dust to you (and dust to you)
There is no need (there is no need)
That this survive (that this survive)
There's truth that lives (there's truth that lives)
And truth that dies (and truth that dies)
Nevermind (nevermind)
Nevermind (nevermind)
I lived a life I left behind (I lived a life I left behind)
There's truth that lives (there's truth that lives)
And truth that dies (and truth that dies)
I don't know which (I don't know which)
So nevermind (so nevermind)
يا سلام على السلام يا سلام
يا سلام يا سلام، يا سلام يا سلام
I could not kill
The way you kill
I could not hate
I tried, I failed
You turned me in
At least you tried
You side with them
Whom you despise
This was your heart
This swarm of flies
This was once your mouth
This bowl of lies
You serve them well
I'm not surprised
You're of their kin
You're of their kind
Nevermind (nevermind)
Nevermind (nevermind)
I had to leave my life behind (I had to leave my life behind)
The story's told with facts and lies (the story's told with facts and lies)
You own the world (you own the world)
So nevermind (so nevermind)
Nevermind (nevermind)
Nevermind (nevermind)
I lived a life I left behind (I lived a life I left behind)
I live it full (I live it full)
I live it wide (I live it wide)
Through layers of time (through layers of time)
You can't divide (you can't divide)
My woman's here (my woman's here)
My children too (my children too)
Their graves are safe (their graves are safe)
From ghosts like you (from ghosts like you)
In places deep (in places deep)
With roots entwined (with roots entwined)
I live the life I left behind (I live the life I left behind)
The war was lost
The treaty signed
I was not caught
I crossed the line
I was not caught
Though many tried
I live among you
Well disguised

Lera Lynn - The Only Thing Worth Fighting For
Change will come to those who have no fear
But I'm not her, you never were the kind who kept a rule book near
We were we like a pair of thieves, tumbled locks and broken codes
You cannot take that from me, my small reprieve is your heart of gold
We were like a battlefield locked inside a holy war, your love is my due diligence
The only thing worth fighting for
But I'm not her, you never were the kind who kept a rule book near
We were we like a pair of thieves, tumbled locks and broken codes
You cannot take that from me, my small reprieve is your heart of gold
We were like a battlefield locked inside a holy war, your love is my due diligence
The only thing worth fighting for

Nick Cave - All The Gold In California
[ Featuring Warren Ellis ]
Come on
All the gold in California is in a bank in the middle of Beverly Hills
So if you're dreaming about California
It don't matter at all where you've played before
California's a brand new game
Tryin' to be a hero, winding up a zero
Can scar a man forever right down to his soul
Living on the spotlight can kill a man outright
'Cause everything that glitters is not gold
It is not gold
All the gold in California is in a bank in the middle of Beverly Hills
So if you're dreaming about California
It don't matter at all where you've played before
California's a brand new game

Lera Lynn - Lately
Lately I'm not feeling like myself
When I look into the glass, I see someone else
I hardly recognize this face I wear
When I stare into her eyes, I see no one there
Lately I'm not feeling like myself
Lately I've been losing all my time
All that mattered to me slipped my mind
Every time I hit another town
Strangers appear to lock me down
Lately I've been losing all my time
The mystery that no one knows
Where does love go when it goes?
Lately words are missing from now on
Vanished in the haze of love gone wrong
There's no future, there's no past
In the present, nothing lasts
Lately someone's missing from now on
The mystery that no one knows
Where does love go when it goes?
The mystery that no one knows
Where does love go when it goes?
When I look into the glass, I see someone else
I hardly recognize this face I wear
When I stare into her eyes, I see no one there
Lately I'm not feeling like myself
Lately I've been losing all my time
All that mattered to me slipped my mind
Every time I hit another town
Strangers appear to lock me down
Lately I've been losing all my time
The mystery that no one knows
Where does love go when it goes?
Lately words are missing from now on
Vanished in the haze of love gone wrong
There's no future, there's no past
In the present, nothing lasts
Lately someone's missing from now on
The mystery that no one knows
Where does love go when it goes?
The mystery that no one knows
Where does love go when it goes?

John Paul White - What A Way To Go
What a wonderful day
To lose it all
Lose it all
What a wonderful way
To choose to fall
Choose to fall
It's all for the best
For all I know
But oh, what a way to go
What a beautiful mess
That we are in
To our chins
How did we get to this place?
Once again
My old friend
It's all for the best
For all I know
Oh, what a way to go
It's all for the best
For all I know
Oh, what a way to go
To lose it all
Lose it all
What a wonderful way
To choose to fall
Choose to fall
It's all for the best
For all I know
But oh, what a way to go
What a beautiful mess
That we are in
To our chins
How did we get to this place?

Lera Lynn - My Least Favorite Life
This is my least favorite life
The one where you fly and I don't
A kiss holds a million deceits
And a lifetime goes up in smoke
This is my least favorite you
Who floats far above earth and stone
The nights that I twist on the rack
Is the time that I feel most at home
We're wandering in the shade
And the rustle of fallen leaves
A bird on the edge of a blade
Lost now forever, my love, in a sweet memory
The station pulls away from the train
The blue pulls away from the sky
The whisper of two broken wings
Maybe they're yours, maybe they're mine
This is my least favorite life
The one where I am out of my mind
The one where you are just out of reach
The one where I stay and you fly
I'm wandering in the shade
And the rustle of fallen leaves
A bird on the edge of the blade
Lost now forever, my love, in a sweet memory
The one where you fly and I don't
A kiss holds a million deceits
And a lifetime goes up in smoke
This is my least favorite you
Who floats far above earth and stone
The nights that I twist on the rack
Is the time that I feel most at home
We're wandering in the shade
And the rustle of fallen leaves
A bird on the edge of a blade
Lost now forever, my love, in a sweet memory
The station pulls away from the train
The blue pulls away from the sky
The whisper of two broken wings
Maybe they're yours, maybe they're mine
This is my least favorite life
The one where I am out of my mind
The one where you are just out of reach
The one where I stay and you fly
I'm wandering in the shade
And the rustle of fallen leaves
A bird on the edge of the blade
Lost now forever, my love, in a sweet memory

Handsome Family - Far From Any Road
(True Detective Season 1 Opening Theme)
From the dusty mesa
Her looming shadow grows
Hidden in the branches of the poison creosote
She twines her spines up slowly
Towards the boiling sun
And when I touched her skin
My fingers ran with blood
In the hushing dusk under a swollen silver moon
I came walking with the wind to watch the cactus bloom
And strange hands halted me, the looming shadows danced
I fell down to the thorny brush and felt the trembling hands
When the last light warms the rocks
And the rattlesnakes unfold
Mountain cats will come to drag away your bones
And rise with me forever
Across the silent sand
And the stars will be your eyes
And the wind will be my hands
Her looming shadow grows
Hidden in the branches of the poison creosote
She twines her spines up slowly
Towards the boiling sun
And when I touched her skin
My fingers ran with blood
In the hushing dusk under a swollen silver moon
I came walking with the wind to watch the cactus bloom
And strange hands halted me, the looming shadows danced
I fell down to the thorny brush and felt the trembling hands
When the last light warms the rocks
And the rattlesnakes unfold
Mountain cats will come to drag away your bones
And rise with me forever
Across the silent sand
And the stars will be your eyes
And the wind will be my hands

Alexandra Savior - Risk
There's a color running through your blood
Such a hasty shade of blonde
You're that awful sort of dangerous
Kind that keeps me hanging on
Darkness does appear when
I can see the secrets hangin' 'round your neck
When we're shirtless, assessing the risk
Prick your finger on a kiss
Tell no one about it
They don't need to know
I'd chalk a line around it
If I could let you go
Keep me quiet, honey
And I promise to
Tell no one about you
Trap the passion, baby, lock the trunk
Catch the keys and hit the road
Went to sleep hungover, woke up drunk
Baby shake that aspirin snowglobe
Darkness does appear when
I'll present you with a temporary fix
My accomplice, this bottomless pit
It's 'bout as deep as it could get
Tell no one about it
They don't need to know
I'd chalk a line around it
If I could let you go
Keep me quiet, honey
And I promise to
Tell no one about you
The reflection
In the cold
You're on the run
Things got me wonderin'
How the sun came up before
Tell no one about it
They don't need to know
I'd chalk a line around it
If I could let you go
Keep me quiet, honey
And I promise to
Tell no one about you
Such a hasty shade of blonde
You're that awful sort of dangerous
Kind that keeps me hanging on
Darkness does appear when
I can see the secrets hangin' 'round your neck
When we're shirtless, assessing the risk
Prick your finger on a kiss
Tell no one about it
They don't need to know
I'd chalk a line around it
If I could let you go
Keep me quiet, honey
And I promise to
Tell no one about you
Trap the passion, baby, lock the trunk
Catch the keys and hit the road
Went to sleep hungover, woke up drunk

Keep me quiet, honey
And I promise to

In the cold
You're on the run
Things got me wonderin'
How the sun came up before
Tell no one about it
They don't need to know

If I could let you go
Keep me quiet, honey
And I promise to

Bob Dylan - Rocks And Gravel
Takes rocks and gravel, baby, make a solid road,
Make a solid road.
Takes rocks and gravel, baby, make a solid road,
Make a solid road.
Make a solid road.
Takes rocks and gravel, baby, make a solid road,
Make a solid road.
Takes a good woman mama,
To satisfy my weary soul.
Have you ever been down on that Mobil and K. C. line,
Have you ever been down on that Mobil and K. C. line?
Well I just wanna ask you,
If you seen that gal of mine,
Don't the clouds look lonesome shining across the sea,
Don't the clouds look lonesome shining across the sea,
Don't my gal look good,
When she's comin' after me?

Lera Lynn - A Church In Ruins
You were alone and you were alive
Among the walking dead
He was a liar but not a tone
Still he went to your head
He said, I love you baby like a miner loves gold
And this will never grow old
Lost in the ether, down in the blight
And not a word was said
But he was neither, vicious or kind
As he laid there and bled
His hands were on you and it felt just the same
As when he didn't know your name
And he said, I love you baby like a miner loves gold
And this will never grow old
Darkness for cover
Church in ruin
There's nothing left to feel
Goodbye lover, this is your doing
A heart against the wheel
Among the walking dead
He was a liar but not a tone
Still he went to your head
He said, I love you baby like a miner loves gold
And this will never grow old
Lost in the ether, down in the blight
And not a word was said
But he was neither, vicious or kind
As he laid there and bled
His hands were on you and it felt just the same
As when he didn't know your name
And he said, I love you baby like a miner loves gold
And this will never grow old
Darkness for cover
Church in ruin
There's nothing left to feel
Goodbye lover, this is your doing
A heart against the wheel

Bonnie Prince Billy - Intentional Injury
In time you find your way to release
And then it goes away, again
What had been the strongest force against you
Becomes your only friend
You can't help but laugh
And I own your soul
A shadow unwanted by any on earth
Most of us rejoice at your awful crying
We live to force you to regret your own birth
Sky falls, ground is gone
Our lord is uplifting
Your work has dissolved
The balance of life is shifting
No way to lose, there is no way to lose
Can't lose your way when there is no way
We, we fight what had been your home
And all of your power becomes ours today
Sky falls, ground is gone
Our lord is uplifting
Your work has dissolved
The balance of life is shifting
And then it goes away, again
What had been the strongest force against you
Becomes your only friend
You can't help but laugh
And I own your soul
A shadow unwanted by any on earth
Most of us rejoice at your awful crying
We live to force you to regret your own birth
Sky falls, ground is gone
Our lord is uplifting
Your work has dissolved
The balance of life is shifting
No way to lose, there is no way to lose
Can't lose your way when there is no way
We, we fight what had been your home
And all of your power becomes ours today
Sky falls, ground is gone
Our lord is uplifting
Your work has dissolved
The balance of life is shifting

Lera Lynn - It Only Takes One Shot
My bed is now a cylinder of steel
Cold and hard and shiny
To match the way I feel
The dust in here is like a burning wind
Black as coal and thunder
Dark as all my sins
I took it for a long, long time
And a woman can take a lot
Two can be undone by three
But it only takes one shot
You were there
To see me beg and kneel
What kind of man would ask me then
If he could make a deal?
When lovers of the future read these lines
A sound of steel and thunder
Will echo in their minds
I took it for a long, long time
And a woman can take a lot
Two can be undone by three
But it only takes one shot
I took it for a long, long time
And a woman can take a lot
Two can be undone by three
But it only takes one shot
Ashes become speed
And turn to blood
It's strange to see
How sharp and clean
The things that come from love
Cold and hard and shiny
To match the way I feel
The dust in here is like a burning wind
Black as coal and thunder
Dark as all my sins
I took it for a long, long time
And a woman can take a lot
Two can be undone by three
But it only takes one shot
You were there
To see me beg and kneel
What kind of man would ask me then
If he could make a deal?
When lovers of the future read these lines
A sound of steel and thunder
Will echo in their minds
I took it for a long, long time
And a woman can take a lot
Two can be undone by three
But it only takes one shot
I took it for a long, long time
And a woman can take a lot
Two can be undone by three
But it only takes one shot
Ashes become speed
And turn to blood
It's strange to see
How sharp and clean
The things that come from love

SI Istwa - The Angry River
[ Featuring Father John Misty ]
The emptiness that we confess
In the dimmest hour of day
In the common town they make a sound
Like the low sad moan of prey
The bitter taste the hidden face
Of the lost forgotten child
The darkest need the slowest speed
The debt un-reconciled
These photographs mean nothing
To the poison that they take
Before a moment's glory
The light begins to fade
The awful cost of all we lost
As we looked the other way
We've paid the price of this cruel device
'Til we've nothing left to pay
The river goes where the current flows
The light we must destroy
Events conspire to set afire
The methods we employ
These dead men walk on water
Cold blood runs through their veins
The angry river rises
As we step into the rain
These photographs mean nothing
To the poison that they take
The angry river rises
As we step into the rain
