Musical Worldview: Dub Syndicate, "More and More"
“What more do you want?
What do you want more for?”
Turning on the taps of wastefulness,
we don’t want no part of this.
And still you want more.
More than you have any use for.”
Musical Worldview: Sammy Brue, "Control Freak"
“I wanna be happy, but the methods I use are against me.”
Musical Worldview: Rainer, "Sometimes It's Hard"
“Sometimes it’s hard to remember
Sometimes it’s hard to recall
The reasons why we’re here
The reasons why we’re even here at all
Then it hits me, hits me like a big jolt
Coming straight into my brain
That the only reasons why we’re here
Is just to love away the pain
Yeah we’re here just to love away the pain
Cause it’s a painful world we live in
Painful yes it’s true
And the only thing we’ve been given
Is just enough love to pull us through
Take a good look around you
Tell me what do you see?
Half the world is paying for love
Paying for love that should be free
Yes, so now it’s back to the trenches
Finding love in a rude world”
Musical Worldview: Hiss Golden Messenger, "Katy (You Don’t Have to Be Good Yet)"

There are colors you'll never see”

Musical Worldview: Howe Gelb, "Love Knows (No Borders)"
“Well, welcome to the season
of suspicion and what not
where the only reason
is based on why not
maybe your bank account
is not a high enough amount
just jingling your pockets
full of quarters, well
Love knows no borders.”
Musical Worldview: Solomon Burke, "Diamond In Your Mind"
“Oh always keep a diamond in your mind
You gotta always keep a diamond in your mind
Wherever you may wander
Wherever you may roam
You gotta always keep a diamond in your mind”
Musical Worldview: Wilco, "Love Is Everywhere (Beware)"
“So many things I do
I can't explain to you
Right now, right now
Love is everywhere
Right now, I'm frightened how
Love is here, beware”
Musical Worldview: Wilco, "One and a Half Stars"
“There is no mother like pain”
Musical Worldview: Wilco, "Everyone Hides"
“If you're telling yourself a story
Where the secrets twist like vines
And you know where the bodies are buried
But you can't remember where you buried the mines”
Musical Worldview: Wilco, "White Wooden Cross"
“Tell me no lies
Tell me no lies
Is it stranger to live?
Is it stranger to die?
What would I do?
What would I do?
If a white wooden cross meant that I'd lost you”
Musical Worldview: Wilco, "Before Us"
“I remember when wars would end
Remember when wars would end?
Now when something's dead
Now when something's dead
We try to kill it again.”
Musical Worldview: Colin Hay, "Beautiful World"
“All around is anger, automatic guns
Death in large numbers, no respect for woman, or our little ones
I tried talking to Jesus, but he just put me on hold
Said he'd been swamped by calls this week
And He could not shake his cold
And still this emptiness persists
Perhaps this is as good as it gets
When you've given up the drink and those nasty cigarettes
Now I leave the party early at least with no regrets
I watch the sun as it comes up I watch it as it sets
Yeah this is as good as it gets
My my my, It's a beautiful world”

Musical Worldview: Joe Strummer and the Mescaleros, "Bhindi Bhagee"
Musical Worldview: Patty Griffin, "When It Don't Come Easy"
“I don't know nothing except change will come
Year after year what we do is undone
Time keeps moving from a crawl to a run
I wonder if we're gonna ever get home
You're out there walking down a highway
And all of the signs got blown away
Sometimes you wonder if you're walking in the wrong direction
But if you break down
I'll drive out and find you
If you forget my love
I'll try to remind you
And stay by you when it don't come easy
So many things that I had before
That don't matter to me now
Tonight I cry for the love that I've lost
And the love I've never found
When the last bird falls
And the last siren sounds
Someone will say what's been said before
Its only love we were looking for”
