The God That Failed
“The God That Failed”Metallica
(1991)
The God That FailedI see faith in your eyes
Never you hear the discouraging liesI hear faith in your cries
Broken is the promise, betrayalThe healing hand
Held back by the deepened nailFollow the God that failed
“I’ll Fly Away”Allison Krauss
(1929)
When the shadows of this life have gone, I'll fly away;
Like a bird from these prison walls I’ve flown, I'll fly away
I'll fly away, Oh Glory I'll fly away; (in the morning)
When I die, Hallelujah, by and by, I'll fly away
Mahler’s 9th Symphony
“Casimir Pulaski Day”Sufjan Stevens
(2004)

Challenge #3Go On – Jack Johnson
In my rear view I watch youWatching the twilight behind the telephone linesWith nothing to prove or to assumeJust thinking that your thoughts are different than mineIn my rear view I watch youI gave you your life, but you gave me mine
I see you slowly swim awayAs the light is leaving townTo a place that I can't beBut there's no apologies
Just go on, Just go onThere are still so many things, I wanna to say to youBut go on, Just go onWe're bound by blood that's moving, the moment that we started
The moment that we started
I see perfect little eyes, watch the shadows of the cloudsAnd the surface of the ocean out the window of a planeI get nervous when I fly I'm used to walking with my feetTurbulence is like a sigh that I can't help but over think
What is the purpose of my life if it doesn't ever doWith learning to let it go live vicariously throughYou can do the same it's the least you can doCause it's a lonely little chain if you don't add to it

Challenge #4 – Ketterling/Bedside Manners
by The Antlers
I wish that I had known in that first minute we met, the unpayabledebt that I owed you. Because you'd been abused by the bone thatrefused you, and you hired me to make up for that. Walking in thatroom when you had tubes in your arms, those singing morphine alarmsout of tune kept you sleeping and even, and I didn't believe them whenthey called you a hurricane thunderclap.
When I was checking vitals I suggested a smile. You didn't talk forawhile, you were freezing. You said you hated my tone, it made youfeel so alone, and so you told me I ought to be leaving. But somethingkept me standing by that hospital bed. I should have quit, but insteadI took care of you. You made me sleep and uneven, and I didn't believethem when they told me that there was no saving you

I don’t wanna die in the hospital No I don’t wanna die in the hospital X2You gotta take me back outside
I don’t wanna hear all those factory soundsLooking like the girl in the sleeping gownI don’t wanna die in the hospital You gotta take me back outside
Can you make a sound to distract the nurseBefore I take a ride in that long black hearseI don’t wanna die in the hospital You gotta take me back outside
Help me get my boots on X6I gotta go, go, goCause I don’t have long
Yeah I don’t give a damn what those doctors sayI don’t wanna spend another lonesome dayI don’t wanna die in the hospital You gotta take me back outside
They don’t let you smoke and you can’t get drunkAll there is to watch are these soap operasI don’t wanna die in the hospital You gotta take me back outside
Can you get this tube out of my armMorphine in my blood like a slow sad songI don’t wanna die in the hospital
You gotta take me back outside
Help me get my boots on X6I gotta go go go Cos I don’t have long
Is there still a world at my windowsillAll there ever was I remember stillI don’t wanna die in the hospital You gotta take me back outside
Don’t know when it’s day or when its nightAll I ever see are florescent lightsI’m not gonna die in this hospital You gotta take me back outside
They give me all these flowers & big balloonsBut I’m not gonna stay in this little roomI’m not gonna die in the hospital You gotta take me back outside
Are the stars still in the skyIs that fat moon on the riseFeel the earth against my feetAs the cold wind calls for me
I ain’t gonna die in the hospital (to outro)
