5 on Friday - Set 17

This has become one of my favorite groups evah.

I adore the way Muse looks at the world. All of their songs play out like life-or-death moments, when only passion can preserve a desperate soul.

For more tunes, hurry on over to Trav's Thoughts and have a listen.


1 - Resistance

The night has reached its end
We can't pretend
We must run, we must run
It's time to run

Take us away from here
Protect us from further harm
Resistance

- Matthew Bellamy



2 - Map of the Problematique

I can't get it right
Get it right since I met you

Loneliness be over
When will loneliness be over?

Life will flash before my eyes
So scattered and lost
I want to touch the other side

And no one thinks they are to blame
Why can't we see
That when we bleed, we bleed the same?

- Matthew Bellamy



3 - Starlight

(sound is low on this one)

My life
You electrify my life
Let's conspire to re-ignite
All the souls that would die just to feel alive

I'll never let you go
If you promise not to fade away
Never fade away

Our hopes and expectations
Black holes and revelations

- Matthew Bellamy



4 - Bliss

(don't forget to turn the volume back down!)

Everything about you pains my envying
Your soul can't hate anything
Everything about you is so easy to love
They're watching you from above

Give me
All the peace
And joy in your mind
I want the peace and joy in your mind

- Matthew Bellamy



5 - Stockholm Syndrome

And I won't hold you back
Let your anger rise
And we'll fly
And we'll fall
And we'll burn

No one will recall
No one will recall

This is the last time I'll
Abandon you
And this is the last time I'll
Forget you
I wish I could

- Matthew Bellamy
