I'm currently listening to...

Proper British pop music.

Seeing the current page of this thread has some holiday spirit going on, I feel it's only fitting to join the party.

So here's a song Goatwack always keeps posting around this time of the year. It's very overplayed and not that great to be honest, but since he for some reason loves the song, we might as well listen to a version that doesn't induce projectile vomiting instantly.

Ho ho ho! 🎅

 
I won't try to record until next year, but here goes (w/e)

Dionysus Calling
________________
My long ass day has turned to night.
I'm coming home, you're within sight.
My perfect mate. My shining light.
I want you there to hold you tight.
Just kissing you my world feels right.
But there you are, itching to fight.
.
Then nothing turns out right.
.
I think I hear his voice.
Dionysus calling.
.
Give and give, always complaining.
Don't know why you're always railing.
Somehow I'm the one who's failing.
Want my blessing for your bailing.
Ship has left and now it's sailing.
Always try and never nailing.
.
So tired of explaining.
.
And then I hear his voice.
Dionysus calling.
.
Like two teens who started dating.
Used to be so satiating.
Now I'm here I'm always waiting.
For your words all sharp and baiting.
You're so fucking irritating.
Not the strength to keep on skating.
.
Mental health is fading.
.
Cuz now I need his voice.
Dionysus calling.
.
My hand grabs the nearest bottle.
Dull the pain with ev'ry swallow.
Fuck the noise, I need to wallow
Drain the glass I'm feeling hollow.
He calls out and I will follow.
.
This guy, this god, he always knows.
.
I guess that's how it goes..
.
And now he's in my head.
Dionysus calling.
.
He's living in my head.
Dionysus calling.
 
Knocking (let me in)
________
And I am out here knocking
Why won't you let me in
And I am out here knocking.
To deny me is a sin
.
Cuz I am out here knocking
So open your door wide
Cuz I am out here knocking
And let me step inside
.
Until it comes to push and shove
You fit me like a fucking glove
I've never felt such hate and love
Are you from Hell or God above?
.
Your feelings I can never tell
Like Adam I don't know you well
Can't tell if you're from God or Hell
An angel or a demon fell?
.
How stupid that I even ask
You always wear that fucking mask
When you're a Herculean task
Why is it in your love I bask?
.
And I am out here knocking
Why won't you let me in
And I am out here knocking.
To deny me is a sin
.
Cuz I am out here knocking
So open your door wide
Cuz I am out here knocking
And let me step inside
.
You treat me like a prince then trash
Your love is there, gone in a flash
Like Troy and Sparta always clash
Why are your choices always rash?
.
You open up then take it back
Around and round the same old track
Your feelings you can't seem to hack
Like Sisyphus, who has my back?
.
You're always there inside my head
Sometimes I wish you fucking dead.
With all the stupid shit you've said
It's who I want with me in bed?
.
And I am out here knocking
Why won't you let me in
And I am out here knocking.
To deny me is a sin
.
Cuz I am out here knocking
So open your door wide
Cuz I am out here knocking
And let me step inside
.
Cuz I am out here knocking
 
Atlas
______
Just treat me like I'm Atlas.
I will shoulder all your weight
Well I can be your Atlas
And provide you all my strength
.
Just treat me like I'm Atlas.
I will shoulder all your weight
Well I can be your Atlas
Because I can go the length
.
It's a'ight I've got the shoulders.
Spent my whole life pushing boulders
Protect you like a Titan soldier
Got your back when nights draw colder
.
And I will bear your Earthly crush
Won't paint you with that same old brush
Just take a breath. No need to rush
Fall in my arms. You got my trust
.
Of battles I have had my fill
I know of struggle's all uphill
The hardest swallow. Toughest pill
So let me be your strength of will
.
Know when your stamina is blown
Your burden isn't yours to own
While Sisyphus he stood alone
I'll be the one to push that stone
.
And when the world has pushed you down
Drowned in noise and all that sound
When both your hands are tied and bound
I am the guy who'll be around
.
Just treat me like I'm Atlas.
I will shoulder all your weight
Well I can be your Atlas
And provide you all my strength
.
Just treat me like I'm Atlas.
I will shoulder all your weight
Cuz I will be your Atlas
Because I can go the length
Just let me be your Atlas
 
Shush. I'm a romantic

It's Winter Time
__________________
This winter can throw anything
Doesn't matter what it brings
There's nothing you and I can't swing
Together we are winter kings
.
It doesn't matter what it throws
No matter how it snows or blows
There's nowhere that we'd rather go
We both know how this story goes
.
We'll turn the fireplace place up high
It's cold outside it's winter time
Just lace your fingers within mine
We're warm inside this winter time
.
We'll pour ourselves a glass of wine
It's cold outside it's winter time
I'll hold your hand and you'll hold mine
We'll both be warm this winter time
.
We'll bundle up all nice and neat
All cuddled up beneath the sheet
Wrapped around each other's feet
We'll lend each other body heat
.
We'll bundle up inside our bed
No worries 'bout the nights ahead
Upon your chest I'll place my head
Or wrap you in my arms instead
.
We'll turn the fireplace place up high
It's cold outside it's winter time
Just snuggle close we'll both be fine
We're warm inside this winter time
.
We'll pour another glass of wine
It's cold outside it's winter time
We'll let our bodies intertwine
We'll both be warm this winter time
 
40 Shots
_________
Just don't have the strength today
Can't take it for another day
Can't keep my broken thoughts away
It's 40 shots and hit the hay
.
It's all your secrets kept at bay
And all the hurtful things you say
Don't know how much your words have sway
It's 40 shots and hit the hay
.
My thoughts a lot of broken toys
I need to drown out all this noise
I need to still my inner voice
Don't see I got another choice.
.
I never reap what I have sown
There's all these feelings I must own
This animosity has grown
Now all my tolerance has flown
.
Just don't have the strength today
Can't take it for another day
Can't keep my broken thoughts away
It's 40 shots and hit the hay
.
It's all your secrets kept at bay
And all the hurtful things you say
Don't know how much your words have sway
It's 40 shots and hit the hay
.
When all I do is give and give
You drive away my will to live
My feelings bleeding like a sieve
You cut my heart just like a shiv
.
Lift me up then tear me down
You break my mind I don't know how
You always manage to somehow
I need to kill this bottle now
.
Just don't have the strength today
Can't take it for another day
Can't keep my broken thoughts away
It's 40 shots and hit the hay
.
It's all your secrets kept at bay
And all the hurtful things you say
Don't know how much your words have sway
It's 40 shots and hit the hay
.
I'm going down this path you led
All laced with existential dread
For all the hurtful things unsaid
Don't want me crying here instead
.
Don't want my vision turning red
I can't unpack what's in my head
For all the hurtful things you said
I'll cauterize my fucking head
.
Just don't have the strength today
Can't take it for another day
It doesn't matter what you say
40 shots and hit the hay
.
It's all your secrets kept at bay
And all the hurtful things you say
Don't know how much your words have sway
It's 40 shots and hit the hay
 
Back-Up Plan
________________
Well i ain't gonna be nobody's back-up plan
Sorry wasn't good enough to be your man
Well when that one don't work, know there's no coming back
Ain't gonna be the one who takes you back
.
Well i ain't gonna be nobody's back-up plan
Sorry couldn't take me for all that I am
Well when that one don't work, know there's no crawling back
Ain't gonna be the guy who's looking back
.
Always held you when you needed to grieve
Worked around your ev'ry single pet peeve
Always there, I wear my heart on my sleeve
And now you feel that you're ready to leave
.
Who's the one took every hit on the chin?
Who stood by you through the thick and the thin?
Always with you whether loss or a win
Always there but you were never quite in
.
Tried to be there or allow you your space
Tried to be there so you'd always feel safe
Thought were no battles that we couldn't face
Apparently that wasn't the case
.

.
Thought I knew just what you were here for
Even though you kept one foot out the door
I thought us rich even though we were poor
I guess you're done because you're wanting more
.
I always figured that we could endure
I always thought you'd felt safe and secure
You're telling me that you don't feel so sure
I was all in I guess you never were
.
And now you feel that you want someone else
That you can place me on a back-up shelf
That I got no bloody sense of myself
I won't be here when you've got nothing else
.
Well i ain't gonna be nobody's back-up plan
Sorry wasn't good enough to be your man
Well when that one don't work, know there's no coming back
Ain't gonna be the one who takes you back

Two
_____
Two warriors across a field
Two headstrong kings who never kneeled
Two criminals whose fate is sealed
Two parties that will never yield
.
Two opposites from diff'rent sects
Two zealots battling ancient texts
Two fighters who both need to flex
Two passing trains destined to wreck
.
Two animals who've both been caged
Two tribal chiefs with wars they've waged
Two warring factions full of rage
Two temperatures that can't be gauged
.
The two of us
With love and hate
The two of us
Need give and take
The two of us
Or both will break
The two of us
We're tempting fate
The two of us
Too much at stake
.
In one another's eyes we gazed
Respect and love we always bathed
But now we look with seething rage
So quick our fists are always raised
.
So common now we're barely fazed
.
Touching hands set us on fire
Bodies burning like a pyre
Once upon a time desire
What's left now is blazing ire
.
Situation now too dire
.

.
We open up yet barely share
To speak our truths we'd never dare
We hide our messages in stares
We hide our feelings within glares
.
What's it cost our souls to bare?
.
We're too contained to set it free
We're too locked in our apathy
We're too blinded to even see
We're too blinded to what we need
.
It's such a fucking travesty
.
