Answer 1

Falling Awake by Gary Jules

Eagle in the dark
Feathers in the pages
Monkeys in my heart
Rattling their cages
Found a way to pooooop
Another ghost to follow
Said its only up to you
It’s the hardest pill to swallow

Mmmmmhmmmmmhhhmmm

You never get to choose
You live on what they send you
You know the kind of use
Things you love will get you
One foot in the grave
One foot in the shower
There’s never time to save
You’re paying by the hour

And that’s just the way it goes
Falling awake
And that’s just the way it goes

Slipping through the bars
Aware of the danger
Of riding in the cars
Taking candy from strangers
You’re never out of hand
Never out of pocket
Super sonic man
Do you want to buy a rocket

Well that’s just the way it goes
Falling awake
Falling awake
And that’s just the way it goes
Falling awake
Falling awake

Eagle in the dark
Feathers in the pages
Monkeys in my heart
Are rattling their cages
I could learn to play the game
Learn to run the hustle
If I only had the brains
The money or the muscle

Answer 2

The other song that had the lyrics...
If you were falling then I would catch you
If you need the light I'd find a match
Cause I love the way you say good morning
And you take me the way I am...
...was The Way I Am by Ingrid Michaelson

Isn't it frustrating the way Grey's Anatomy keeps putting these intricate songs inbetween pivitol moments and never telling you what the songs are or who does them. They use to tell you who did the songs and what album you can find them, on the WB but now that it's CW they only seem to do it occassionally like on Smallville or the OC. ABC or any other channels..forget it. You have to turn part investigator to figure it out. It's darn frustrating trying to figure out if these songs are on the two Grey Anatomy soundtracks or by the same artists on those soundtracks...which I find they use the same artists a lot. But I find it challenging to piece together what I can from what the shows give me. Thank God for TiVO so I can rewind and of course - the internet. (smile) Hopes this helps.
