View Full Version : Favorite lyrics....
<p>There are so many songs that I love that either remind me of things that have heppened in my life, or even feel like they were written by me because the lyrics are so dead on with feelings or views I may have. Of course the music within the song helps, but what are your favorite <strong>song lyrics</strong>?</p><br /><p>Reflection - Tool</p><p class="p1lyrics">I have come curiously close to the end, down<br />Beneath my self-indulgent pitiful hole,<br />Defeated, I concede and<br />Move closer<br />I may find comfort here<br />I may find peace within the emptiness<br />How pitiful </p><p class="p1lyrics">It's calling me...</p><p class="p1lyrics">And in my darkest moment, fetal and weeping<br />The moon tells me a secret - my confidant<br />As full and bright as I am<br />This light is not my own and<br />A million light reflections pass over me</p><p class="p1lyrics">Its source is bright and endless<br />She resuscitates the hopeless<br />Without her, we are lifeless satellites drifting </p><p class="p1lyrics">And as I pull my head out I am without one doubt<br />Don't wanna be down here feeding my narcissism.<br />I must crucify the ego before it's far too late<br />I pray the light lifts me out<br />Before I pine away.</p><p class="p1lyrics">So crucify the ego, before it's far too late<br />To leave behind this place so negative and blind and cynical,<br />And you will come to find that we are all one mind<br />Capable of all that's imagined and all conceivable.<br />Just let the light touch you<br />And let the words spill through<br />And let them pass right through<br />Bringing out our hope and reason ...<br />before we pine away.</p><h3 class="lyrics"></h3><h3 class="lyrics"></h3><h3 class="lyrics"></h3><p>Dirty Road- Days of the New </p><p>I've waited to say so long<br />to the shame that owns you<br />The limits are bound<br />there's more to be found inside of you<br />Give it some time<br />The voices seem heavy - I know this<br />If you play by the hour,<br />it's where you begin not where you will end<br />Today<br />And I feel like I am living<br />where no one can find me,<br />And I don't know how I've landed here<br />Sometimes I feel like<br />those good things are behind me.<br />Is the road supposed to get better than this?<br />And I'll find.<br />yes I will find<br />yes I will find<br /><br />So long to the faith.<br />Believe in yourself, no fantasy.<br />Discovery blind.<br />I hope you will find<br />the truth here.<br />Give it some time,<br />believing and knowing are two different things<br />Play by your hour,<br />it's where you will end not where you begin<br /><br />Get up and open your eyes.<br />Don't let yourself ever fall down.<br />Get through it and learn how to fly<br />I know you will find a way...<br />Today<br /><br />It's the same damn dirty road<br /><br />I will find a way</p><h3 class="lyrics"><br /></h3>

<p>angry young man billy joel great topic.</p><p>There's a place in the world for the angry young man<br />With his working class ties and his radical plans<br />He refuses to bend he refuses to crawl<br />And he's always at home with his back to the wall<br />And he's proud of his scars and the battles he's lost<br />And struggles and bleeds as he hangs on his cross<br />And likes to be known as the angry young man <br /><br />Give a moment or two to the angry young man<br />With his foot in his mouth and his heart in his hand<br />He's been stabbed in the back he's been misunderstood<br />It's a comfort to know his intentions are good<br />And he sits in his room with a lock on the door<br />With his maps and his medals laid out on the floor<br />And he likes to be known as the angry young man <br /><br />I believe I've passed the age of consciousness and righteous rage<br />I found that just surviving was a noble fight<br />I once believed in causes too<br />I had my pointless point of view<br />And life went on no matter who was wrong or right <br /><br />And there's always a place for the angry young man<br />With his fist in the air and his head in the sand<br />And he's never been able to learn from mistakes<br />So he can't understand why his heart always breaks<br />And his honor is pure and his courage is well <br />And he's fair and he's true and he's boring as hell<br />And he'll go to the grave as an angry old man <br /><br />Yes there's always a place for the angry young man<br />With his working class ties and his radical plans<br />He refuses to bend he refuses to crawl<br />And he's always at home with his back to the wall<br />And he's proud of his scars and the battles he's lost<br />And struggles and bleeds as he hangs on his cross<br />And likes to be known as the angry young man </p>

<p>I've always liked the lyrics to:</p><p>The Noose by A Perfect Circle</p><p>So glad to see you well<br />Overcome and completely silent now<br />Without himself<br />You cast your demons out<br />And not to pull your halo down<br />Around your neck and tug you off your cloud<br />But I'm more than just curious<br />How you're planning to go about<br />Making your amends to the dead<br />To the dead<br /><br />Recall the deeds as if<br />They're all someone else's<br />Atrocious stories<br />Now you stand reborn before us all<br />So glad to see you well<br /><br />And not to pull your halo down<br />Around your neck and tug you to the ground<br />But I'm more than just curious<br />How you're planning to go about<br />Making your amends to the dead<br />To the dead<br /><br />With your halo slipping down<br />Your halo slipping<br /><br />Your halo slipping down to choke you now</p>

<p>going back a little ways but i've always loved this song. most have picked it up from my mom, croce was playing throughout my childhood.</p><p>jim croce - time in a bottle</p><p> If I could save time in a bottle<br /> The first thing that I'd like to do<br /> Is to save every day<br /> Till Eternity passes away<br /> Just to spend them with you<br /> <br /> If I could make days last forever<br /> If words could make wishes come true<br /> I'd save every day like a treasure and then,<br /> Again, I would spend them with you<br /> <br /> But there never seems to be enough time<br /> To do the things you want to do<br /> Once you find them<br /> I've looked around enough to know<br /> That you're the one I want to go<br /> Through time with<br /> <br /> If I had a box just for wishes<br /> And dreams that had never come true<br /> The box would be empty<br /> Except for the memory<br /> Of how they were answered by you<br /> <br /> But there never seems to be enough time<br /> To do the things you want to do<br /> Once you find them<br /> I've looked around enough to know<br /> That you're the one I want to go<br /> Through time with </p>

<strong><font face="Arial">Alone Again (Naturally)<br />Gilbert O'Sullivan</font></strong> <p><font face="Arial"><strong>In a little while from now, if I'm not feeling any less sour<br />I promise myself to treat myself and visit a nearby tower<br />And climbing to the top, to throw myself off<br />In an effort to make it clear to who-ever what it's like when you're shattered<br />Left standing in the lurch, at the church with people saying<br />"My God, that's tough, she stood him up, No point in us remaining<br />We may as well go home", like I did on my own<br />Alone again, naturally<br /><br /><br />To think that only yesterday, I was cheerful bright and gay<br />Looking forward - wouldn't you? The role I was about to play<br />And as if to knock me down, reality came around<br />And without so much as a mere touch cut me into little pieces<br />Leaving me to doubt, talk about God in his mercy<br />Who if He really does exist why did He desert me<br />In my hour of need, I truly am indeed<br />Alone again, naturally<br /> <br /><br />It seems to me that there are more hearts broken in the world<br />Than can be mended, Left unattended<br />What would you do? What would you do?<br /> <br />[nylon-string guitar solo over verse 1 chords]<br /> <br />Looking back over the years and whatever else that appears<br />I remember I cried when my father died, never wishing to hide the tears<br />And at sixty-five years old, My mother, God rest her soul<br />Couldn't understand why the only man she had ever loved had been taken<br />Leaving her to start with a heart so badly broken<br />Despite encouragement from me no words were ever spoken<br />When she passed away I cried and cried all day<br /><br />Alone again naturally<br />Alone again... naturally<br /></strong></font></p><p><font face="Arial"><strong>say what you want about the song, but the lyrics get to me.</strong></font></p>

Father forgive me for I know not what I do<br />I tried everything, now I'll leave it up to you<br />I don't wanna live, I don't know why<br />I don't have no reasons, I just want to die<br /><br />I'm a suicidal failure, I gotta have some help<br />I have suicidal tendencies, but I can't kill myself<br /><br />Tired of this way of life, my patience has expired<br />I'm barely just 19, but my life I will retire<br />I went down to a rifle store, I bought myself a gun<br />I pointed it at my head, but I couldn't get the job done<br /><br />I'm a suicidal failure, I gotta have some help<br />I have suicidal tendencies, but I can't kill myself<br /><br />I took all my mothers sleeping pills<br />I jumped off a freeway bridge<br />I drank three kinds of poison<br />And drove my car off a ridge<br />I beat myself with a bat<br />Put a noose around my head<br />I've overdosed on heroin<br />But I'm still not dead<br /><br />I'm a suicidal failure, I gotta have some help<br />I have suicidal tendencies, but I can't kill myself<br /><br />Death may not be the answer, it can't be all that great<br />But me I'm not into living, with life I can't relate<br />By some masochistic reasoning, I think it will be fun<br />I want to start my second life now<br />So shoot me with your gun

<p>Okkervil River - A King and A Queen</p><p>If you want to see and be seen, then be seen. Your dress is dark red and your opening eyes are bright green. Make a scene, but don’t lie on the bed, laid out like you’re dead, because honey, you’re murdering me. Be a little sheep learning who’ll shear and who’ll feed. The hands come and they leave. Be hands holding a knife. Be a being on two feet, with his heart trembling, butchering for a king he believes in though he’s never seen. Be the princess in that stone tower, crying for that handsome butcher’s plight (and, as some princess might, she still calls him a knight.) But the best thing for you would be queen, so be queen. You’re all that I need. Though I know that it never can be, I’d be pleased to post your decrees, to fall at your knees, to name all your streets and to sit down and weep when you’re carried back through them and set down to sleep, and to lie by your side for sublime centuries (until we crumble to dust when we’re crushed by a single sunbeam). </p>

<p>I know how people hate Blues Traveler, and I keep bringing this up in lyrics threads, but....</p><p>Never a day goes by when I can't see his face<br />And I can<br />hear a thundering voice that no one will replace<br />But since<br />he left you've been hiding out and I can understand<br />It seems to me about that time you should be coming back again<br /><br />I can feel the pain<br />That won't go away<br />We<br />can't change that he left us<br />But it's up to you<br />to stay<br /><br />And I will make sense of it all<br />Gonna<br />try to make sense of it all<br />You ask me why<br />'Cause<br />it's all I can do<br />I miss him every day<br />But now I<br />miss you<br /><br />I know it hurts right now but you've<br />got to keep moving on<br />And I know how good it can feel when<br />you're safe and withdrawn<br />But he can live in our<br />memory and you don't yet have that choice<br />'Cause<br />you're still here and to speak to me you're gonna have<br />to use your voice<br /><br />I ain't telling you<br />what's right<br />And I ain't telling you what's<br />wrong<br />But it's he who has died<br />And it's you<br />who has gone<br /><br />And I will make sense of it all<br />Gonna try to make sense of it all<br />You ask me why<br />'Cause it's all I can do<br />I miss him every<br />day<br />But now I miss you<br /><br />I know you're<br />thinking now you must go through this alone<br />But it's<br />time to come home<br /><br />I can feel the pain<br />That<br />won't go away<br />We can't change that he left us<br />But it's up to you to stay<br /><br />And I will make<br />sense of it all<br />Gonna try to make sense of it all<br />You<br />ask me why<br />'Cause it's all I can do<br />I miss<br />him every day<br />But now I miss you</p>

<p>Wikipedia: A <strong>cliché</strong> is a phrase, expression, or idea that has been overused to the point of losing its intended force or novelty, especially when at some time it was considered distinctively forceful or novel. It is generally used in a negative context.</p><p> </p>

<p><span class="postbody"><font size="3">Achin' To Be. By The Replacements</font></span></p><p>Good choice. My favorite though is from Bastards of Young:</p><p>The ones who love us best are the ones well lay to rest<br />And visit their graves on holidays at best<br />The ones who love us least are the ones well die to please<br />If its any consolation, I dont begin to understand</p><p> </p><p>I also dig some lines from Sonic Youth's Schizophrenia:</p><p><font><a name="S"></a><font size="4" color="#000000">I went away to see an old friend of mine His sister came over she was out of her mind She said Jesus had a twin who knew nothing about sin She was laughing like crazy at the trouble I'm in Her light eyes were dancing she is insane Her brother says she's just a bitch with a golden chain Shw keeps coming closer saying "I can feel it in my bones Schizophrenia is taking me home" My Future is static It's already had it I could tuck you in And we can talk about it I had a dream And it split the scene But I got a hunch It's coming back to me</font></font> </p><p> </p>
<p>Steve Forbert is probably my all-time favorite lyricist, and two of my favorite songs of his are "Dear Lord" and "Rose Marie." </p><p>"Dear Lord" correlates a man begging God to end his loneliness with Adam begging God for an Eve. It's one of the saddest and most beautiful songs I've ever heard. </p><p>The lyrics can be found <a href="http://www.steveforbert.com/LYRICS/RockingHorseHeadLyrics.htm" target="_blank">here</a>. </p><p>"Rose Marie" is another beauty that makes such gorgeous use of alliteration it's unbelievable. </p><p>Lyrics are <a href="http://www.steveforbert.com/LYRICS/lyrics_evergreen_boy.htm" target="_blank">here. </a></p>

<p>narc sufjan stevens is pretty good...very different but still good...heres a drive by truckers song</p><p> </p><div class="songtitles">SOUNDS BETTER IN THE SONG </div><p>When I saw her standing there, with her bright eyes and shining hair, <br />she was looking back at me. <br />Some are meant to sing, some are meant to talk and some aren’t meant to say a thing. <br />But when she opened up her mouth and that sweet voice came out <br />I lost track of my own name. <br />Now she’s found herself, and I lost mine <br />and I’m just another guy who can’t give her anything. <br /><br />Well the drifter, He holds on to his youth just like it was money in the bank. <br />And “Lord knows, I can’t change” sounds better in the song <br />than it does with hell to pay. <br />I might as well of slipped that ring on your finger from a window of a van <br />as it drove away. <br />Now she’s found herself, and I lost mine <br />and I’m just another guy who can’t give her anything. <br /><br />Dreams are given to you when you’re young enough to dream them <br />before they can do you any harm. <br />They don’t start to hurt, until you try to hold on to them after seeing how they really are. <br />She used to dream them with me, every single crazy one, <br />until they started hurting her too, now she’s got some of her own <br />and outgrowing me, might be the best thing for her she’s ever done. <br /><br />A light that shines as bright as hers can’t be kept in the shadows for too long. <br />A heart that wants to live and a soul that wants to give <br />can’t just sit at home alone. <br />Lord, she’s give me everything and never wanted anything I couldn’t give. <br />Just what was inside of me. <br />And now she’s found herself, and I lost mine <br />and I’m just another guy who can’t give her anything. </p>

<p>heres another drive by truckers song...they are the best</p><p> </p><div class="songtitles">COTTONSEED</div><p>I came to tell my story to all these young and eager minds<br />To look in their unspoiled faces and their curious bright eyes<br />Stories of corruption, crime and killing, yes it's true<br />Greed and fixed elections, guns and drugs and whores and booze<br /><br />It's been a while since I put on a suit of my own clothes<br />And even longer since I cast my shadow on a church house door<br />They say every sin is deadly but I believe they may be wrong<br />I'm guilty of all seven and I don't feel too bad at all<br /><br />I used to have a wad of hundred dollar bills in the back pocket of my suit<br />I had a .45 underneath my coat and another one in my boot<br />I drove a big ole Cadillac, bought a new one anytime I pleased<br />And I put more lawmen in the ground than Alabama put cottonseed<br /><br />I spent a few years on vacation, sanctioned by the state I mentioned<br />But a man like me don't do no time too hard to come back from<br />The meanest of the mean, I see you lock away and toss the key<br />But they're all just loud mouth punks to me, I've scraped meaner off my shoe<br /><br />Somewhere, I ain't saying, there's a hole that holds a judge<br />The last one that I dug myself<br />And I must admit I was sad to lay him in it, but I did the best I could<br />Once his Honor grows a conscience, well folks, that there just ain't no good<br /><br />There's a pretty girl out there said "Daddy, you stay cool tonight<br />All I need from you is to come home and be here by my side<br />Say what you gotta say to shut their Bibles and their mouths<br />If they was to tie a noose, they'd have to lay their Bibles down"<br /><br />I ain't here to save no souls and even if I could<br />I could never save enough to put back half the ones I took<br />So if they rest in torment you can't say it's cause of me<br />They'd long been bought and paid for like that fool's in Tennessee</p><p> </p>
<p>So many great songs. I'll mention my favorite Replacements song (since Achin to Be & Bastards of Young were already mentioned). Why isn't Westerberg listed as one of the great songwriters of all-time? </p><p><strong>I Will Dare</strong></p><p>How young are you?<br />How old am I?<br />Let's count the rings around my eyes<br />How smart are you?<br />How dumb am I?<br />Don't count any of my advice<br /><br />Oh, meet me anyplace or anywhere or anytime<br />Now I don't care, meet me tonight<br />If you will dare, I might dare<br /><br />Call me on Thursday, if you will<br />Or call me on Wednesday, better still<br />Ain't lost yet, so I gotta be a winner<br />Fingernails and a cigarette's a lousy dinner<br />Young, are you?<br /><br />Meet me anyplace or anywhere or anytime<br />Now, I don't care, meet me tonight<br />If you will dare, I will dare</p>

I feel all the furies of love violently<br /> Flowers in the rain, wild fires in the orchard<br /> Singing through the pain, I beg to feel tortured<br /> Sugar and chaos, everyone else is boring<br /> Let's make dirty babies until the morning<br /> <br /> Love sick how much deeper still can this get?<br /> Show me where it hurts and let me kiss it<br /> Je joue à l'envers de l'amour étroit<br /> Je jouie le mystère de l'amour courtois<br /> (Repeat x2)<br /> <br /> Making the fortune of fools seems unbelievable<br /> You're naked except for my diamond,<br /> impure evil<br /> I'm touching for his pleasures in the dark<br /> I'm dying<br /> Well I'm dead too. I want to spend the rest of my life trying<br /> Tout contre, swallowing, le monde, hoping<br /> Je dessine a la sanguine le lit, blowing kisses<br /> where you open<br /> Filthy. I was guilty at first sight to be possessed<br /> Facing your waterfall my frenzy is confessed<br /> <br /> Love sick how much deeper still can this get?<br /> Show me where it hurts and let me kiss it<br /> Je joue à l'envers de l'amour étroit<br /> Je jouie le mystère de l'amour courtois<br /> (Repeat x2)<br /> <br /> Passing fire back and forth, until the legs<br /> dance hysterical<br /> Trying to vanish, I enter the miracle<br /> I pay everyday my heavy pleasure to be your sin<br /> You're taming my measure being out<br /> or being in<br /> For la pluie, for religion, for la glace, forbidden<br /> It's continuous, I come and go between your kidneys hidden<br /> After the holy mess we make you wash my hair<br /> While the smoke makes pretty designs in the air...<br /> <br /> Love sick how much deeper still can this get?<br /> Show me where it hurts and let me kiss it<br /> Je joue à l'envers de l'amour étroit<br /> Je jouie le mystère de l'amour courtois<br /> (Repeat x2)</p><p>This is just about the sexiest song ever made. It's actually a back and forth, call-response kind of bit between Buck and some smokey-voiced French chick. I thnk her name is Claire. Regardless, they go back and forth, each switching between French and English, and it's pretty fucking hot. </p>

<p>"westfall" by okkervil river</p><p>I’m surrounded, each doorway covered by at least twenty men. And they’re going to take me and throw me in prison. I ain’t coming back again. When I was younger, handsomer and stronger, I felt like I could do anything. But all of these people making all these faces didn’t seem like my kith and kin. Colin Kincaid from the twelfth grade, I guess you could say he was my best friend. He lived in a big tall house out on Westfall where we would hide when the rain rolled in. We went out one night and took a flashlight, out with these two girls Colin knew from Kenwood Christian. One was named Laurie, that’s what the story said next week in the Guardian. And when I killed her it was so easy that I wanted to kill her again. I got down on both of my knees and….she ain’t coming back again. Now, with all these cameras focused on my face, you’d think they could see it through my skin. They’re looking for evil, thinking they can trace it, but evil don’t look like anything </p>

<p>Jihad by Slayer, heres the end of the song.</p><p><br />Be optomistic, happy, and calm. Show no fear or anxiety. Smile at the face of God and your reward will be eternity. Holy warriors, your patience will be justified. Everything is for Him. You must not confront the enemy before you kill it. Strike as champions at the heart of the non-believers. Strike above the neck and at all extremities. For this is a point of no return for Almighty God. God will give bahishti to his faithful servants.

The Noose
So glad to see you have overcome them.
Completely silent now
With heaven's help
You cast your demons out
And not to pull your halo down
Around your neck and tug you off your cloud
But I'm more than just a little curious
How you're planning to go about
Making your amends to the dead
To the dead
Recall the deeds as if
They're all someone else's
Atrocious stories
Now you stand reborn before us all
So glad to see you well
And not to pull your halo down
Around your neck and tug you to the ground
But I'm more than just a little curious
How you're planning to go about
Making your amends to the dead
To the dead
With your halo slipping down
Your halo slipping
Your halo slipping down
Your halo slipping down
Your halo slipping down [repeated]
Your halo slipping down to choke you now

I like your pants around your feet
And I like the dirt that's on your knees
And I like the way you say please
While you're looking up at me
You're like my favorite damn disease
And I love the places that we go
And I love the people that you know
And I love the way you can't say "No"
Too many long lines in a row
I love the powder on your nose
And now I know who you are
It wasn't that hard
Just to figure you out
Now I did, you wonder why
I like the freckles on your chest
And I like the way you like me best
And I like the way you're not impressed
While you put me to the test
I like the white stains on your dress
I love the way you pass the check
And I love the good times that you wreck
And I love your lack of self respect
While you're passed out on the deck
I love my hands around your neck
And I know who you are
It wasn't that hard
Just to figure you out
Now I did, you wonder why
Why not before, you never tried
Gone for good, and this is it
I like your pants around your feet
And I like the dirt that's on your knees
And I like the way you still say please
While you're looking up at me
You're like my favorite damn disease
And I hate the places that we go
And I hate the people that you know
And I hate the way you can't say "No"
Too many long lines in a row
I hate the powder on your nose
And now I know who you are
It wasn't that hard
Just to figure you out
Now I did, you wonder why
Why not before, you never tried
Gone for good, and this is it

And you never get away
And you never get to take the easy way
And all of this is a consequence
Brought on by our own hand
If you believe in that sort of thing
And did you ever really find
When you closed your eyes
Any place that was still
And at peace
And I guess I just wanted to tell you
As the lights starts to fade
That you are the reason
That I am not afraid
And I guess I just wanted to mention
As the heavens will fall
We will be together soon if we
Will be anything at all
Shame on us
Doomed from the start
May God have mercy
On our dirty little hearts
Shame on us
For all we have done
And all we ever were
Just zeros and ones

Stop Smiling by the Vandals
Happy robots say "life is fine", they're the ones I loathe
They're stupid or they're lying or a little bit of both
Ignore disasters and say that life is great
it never stops the smie on your shit-consuming face.
The stupid hippies, too stoned to see their lives are fucked
Going with the flow-into the shitter they are sucked
and then they got these magic crystals
don't do a goddnam thing
just stink of your pachoulli while you choke on your ginseng
Beating on a drum
you sing of quiet and peace
burn some marijuana
then take the time to hug a tree
say no possessions
then get all that you can
you stink like shit and smile through it
Don't ever trust a happy man!
Cheery retard masses
with thier evil Osmond smiles
way too glad to be here 'cause "He" is on your side
and then they hand out propaganda
for sheep to join the cult
collecting guns, they rape your daughters
but no one is at fault
I don't want to go to heaven
it's filled with pricks like you
I won't go inside the gates
just leave me in the waiting room
I'm sure that God hates you
He thinks you are an obssessed fan
See how you are?
I'll never trust a happy man!
Cult by Slayer
Oppression is the holy law
In God I distrust
In time His monuments will fall
Like ashes to dust
Is war and greed the master plan?
The Bible's where it all began
Its propaganda sells despair
And spreads the virus everywhere
Religion is hate
Religion is fear
Religion is war
Religion is rape
Religion's obscene
Religion's a whore
The pestilence is Jesus Christ
There never was a sacrifice
No man upon the crucifix
Beware the cult of purity
Infectious imbecility
I've made my choice: 666
Corruption breeds the pedophile
Don't pray for the priest
Confession finds the lonely child
God preys on the weak
You think your soul can still be saved
I think you're fuckin' miles away
Scream out loud here's where you begin
Forgive me father for I have sinned
Religion is hate
Religion is fear
Religion is war
Religion is rape
Religion's obscene
Religion's a whore
The target's Fucking Jesus Christ
I would've lead the sacrifice
And nailed him to the crucifix
Beware the cult of purity
Infectious imbecility
I've made my choice: 666
Jesus is pain
Jesus is gore
Jesus is the blood
That's spilled in war
He's everything
He's all things dead
He's pulling on the trigger
Pointed at your head
Through fear you're sold into the fraud
Revalation revolution
I see through your Christ illusion
The war on terror just drags along
My war on God is growing strong
Its propaganda sells despair
And spreads the virus everywhere
Religion is hate
Religion is fear
Religion is war
Religion is rape
Religion's obscene
Religion's a whore
Thereis no fuckin' Jesus Christ
There never was a sacrifice
No man upon the crucifix
Beware the cult of purity
Infectious imbecility
I've made my choice: 666
Prehaps I should change my name to SatanicJihad

I've got patches on the patches of my old blue jeans
Well, they used to be blue
When they used to be new
When they used to be clean
-Bon Scott
Feeling melancholy and reflective this evening....
Man is the Baby.
Yearning for more than a blue day
I enter your new life for me
Burning for the true day
I welcome your new life for me
Forgive me, Let live me
Set my spirit free
Losing, it comes in a cold wave
Of guilt and shame all over me
Child has arrived in the darkness
The hollow triumph of a tree
Forgive me, Let live me
Kiss my falling knee
Forgive me, Let live me
Bless my destiny
Forgive me, Let live me
Set my spirit free
Weakness sown, Overgrown
Man is the baby
Spiraling
Well and I can and I die
I can, I die
Well and I'm freezing
I'm freezing
Well it's a sly curse
A sly curse
Well and I'm spiralling
I'm spiralling
In the broken heart game
I've got all my files
I've got all my ones to choose from
I gave waiting for you
Waiting for you
I'm ravage like a dog in heat
I'm gone, gone
???
I am, I'm undone
I am undone
Where go, where now
I can't stand
If I can, I can die
I'm freezing
It's like us
I'm spiralling
In my cruel life God poisoned
I was born old
Not a girl and not a jewel
I am,I am some son
I am some bum
Where go, where now
I can't stand
If I can, I can die
I'm freezing
It's like us
I'm spiralling

Boat on a hill, never going to sea.
Anchored to a fixer upper's dream.
This boat is beat, never gonna be a boat now.
Thirsty, sees the sea from high on ice plant.
He keeps patching it and painting.
Thinking about his pension plan.
But the boat is out to pasture.
Seems it never had a chance.
I wanna be a boat.
I wanna learn to swim.
Then I'll learn to float.
Then begin again.
Begin again.
Boat remembers the carpenter's sure hand.
Missing fishy flutter on it's rudder.
Sold at an auction, on a dolly ever since.
Sometimes rainy days drop boyish wonder.

i love my mother for all the things she's not
but mostly for who she is
i love my father for all the things he's thought
but really for the things he did
i love my piano though i wasn't ever taught
still i think i'm gonna live
all things to those who wait
take time to find your way
half the answers are there in your mistakes
even when you're wrong i think you're great
i love my brother he's always taking shit
he's just not like the other kids
i love my sister for always making things
she even made a brother out of me, sweet kid
i love this feeling like i've got something to give
you know i think i'm gonna live
all things to those who wait
take time to find your way
some will say the truth is not so plain
don't confuse your truth with your pain
you can take a line and say it isn't straight
but that ain't gonna change it's shape
i love my drummer and all the things he plays
i wrote it in half-time just to say thanks
i love my bassist represent the Western states
i think they sent an angel from the old Salt Lake
i love my guitarist his chops from outer space
he can make my three chords sound like eight
all the things to those who wait
take time to find your way
to all the bands who mean what they say:
it's not what you sell its what you make.
i love you stranger, it might not always show
there's a lot of good in you i know

I have the title Tattoo'd on my wrist.. now that's dedication
In My Life » Beatles
There are places I remember,
all my life, though some have changed
some forever not for better,
some have gone, and some remain,
all these places have their moments,
with lovers and friends, I still can recall,
some are dead and some are living,
In My Life, I've loved them all
But of all these friends and lovers,
there is no one, compares with you,
and these memories lose thier meaning,
when I think of love, as something new
though I know I'll never lose affection,
for people and things, that went before
I know I'll often stop and think about them,
In My Life, I love you more
though I know I'll never lose affection,
for people and things, that went before
I know I'll often stop and think about them,
In My Life, I love you more
In My Life, I love you more...

This situation's killing me
It's got me right under the thumb
I don't know where I want to be
This doesn't make no sense at all
You're quoting every single line
I spoke too much but I was old before my time, you told me
I want my life to make more sense
I want my life to make amends
I want my life to make more sense to me
This road is crooked cracked and wrong
They got the odds staked nice and high
I don't know how they get along
Me, I just internalize
You can imagine what they'd say
Given the choice if I could fight or walk away, I'm walking
You see I want my life to make more sense
I want my life to make amends
I want my life to make more sense to me
I want my life to make more sense
I want my life to make more sense to me
So let me take you by the hand
And lead you through this troubled mind
You said yourself we had a plan
To get us all back to the line
We talk about it everyday
But we keep forgetting what it was we came to say
Now don't we
I want my life to make more sense
I want my life to make amends
I want my life to make more sense to me
My life to make amends

have you heard a single word ive said?
time to brush the crumbs out of your bed
do i want a life of leisure?
what the hell is wrong with me?
first a tremor,then a seizure
middle aged lobotomy
unrepentant scofflaw on the lam
laying waste to all the best laid plans
i swear the gingko’s working in reverse
C is for the casanova
U’s unglued and never over
N is for the noose you knotted
T is for the tears i blotted
C is carbon tetrachloride
U stands for im standing upright
N is not for non infectious
T’s translating little lectures
erect the barricade - and call off the crusade
dont you point that thing at me
there’s no such thing as gravity
i gave you a mountain
you gave me pain,but...
why are the pretty ones always insane?
C is for contamination
Undergoing litigation
N is never never land and
T is for the tramp i am
C’s committing cunnilingus
U unless the odor lingers
N is no assembly needed
T is for the truth mistreated
look at all the ugly people
diggin holes to pass the time
semi spastic weak and feeble
never ending pantomime
you come equipped and be prepared
a roll of duct tape,a cattle prod and a polygraph machine
C is for the crumbs you throw me
U is you dont even know me
N is not for understanding
T is trust thats too demanding
C is for the country teaser
U is upright in your freezer
N is for the end of meaning
T is in the tower leaning
C is on the couch recliner
U is under ursa minor
N is for no way of no-ing
T is for your trip is showing
~judge me not lest ye be judged thine self~
Look at all the ugly people
Fillin holes to pass the time
non elastis weak and feeble
never ending pantomime
dio i want a life of leisure?
what the hell is wrong with me?
first a tremor then a seizure
then deluxe lobotomy
C is for contamination
Undergoing litigation
N is never never land and
T is for the tramp i am

THE NEED MACHINE
i recommend you seek professional help
cant help you when i cannot help myself
the anarchists as they get old
start searching for that pot of gold
a Pyrrhic victory for your mental health
gotta feed the need machine
the psychic vampires have come out to play
they'll beat the drums of conquest with your bones
and twist round your psychology
with buckshot methodology
while auctioning your daily methadone
whoever has the most toys always wins
they'll genuflect then kick you in the shins
give me Librium or give me meth
ill filter out the nutrients
and cut the rest to mix a mickey finn
gotta feed the need machine

for anyone whose heart's been broken
Leave
(written with Damien Rice)
I can't wait forever is all that you said
Before you stood up
And you won't disappoint me
I can do that myself
But I'm glad that you've come
Now if you don't mind
Leave, leave,
And free yourself at the same time
Leave, leave,
I don't understand, you've already gone
And I hope you feel better
Now that it's out
What took you so long
And the truth has a habit
Of falling out of your mouth
But now that it's come
If you don't mind
Leave, leave,
And please yourself at the same time
Leave, leave,
Let go of my hand
You said what you have to now
Leave, leave,
Let go of my hand
You said what you came to now
Leave, leave,
Leave, leave,
Let go of my hand
You said what you have to now
Leave, leave,
Stinkfist.
Something has to change.
Un-deniable dilemma.
Boredom's not a burden
Anyone should bear.
Constant over stimu-lation numbs me
and I wouldn't have
It any other way.
It's not enough.
I need more.
Nothing seems to satisfy.
I don't want it.
I just need it.
To feel, to breathe, to know I'm alive.
Finger deep within the borderline.
Show me that you love me and that we belong together.
Relax, turn around and take my hand.
I can help you change
Tired moments into pleasure.
Say the word and we'll be
Well upon our way.
Blend and balance
Pain and comfort
Deep within you
Till you will not have me any other way.
It's not enough.
I need more.
Nothing seems to satisfy.
I don't want it.
I just need it.
To feel, to breathe, to know I'm alive.
Knuckle deep inside the borderline.
This may hurt a little but it's something you'll get used to.
Relax. Slip away.
Something kinda sad about
the way that things have come to be.
Desensitized to everything.
What became of subtlety?
How can it mean anything to me
If I really don't feel anything at all?
I'll keep digging till
I feel something.
Elbow deep inside the borderline.
Show me that you love me and that we belong together.
Shoulder deep within the borderline.
Relax. Turn around and take my hand.

Something has to change.
Un-deniable dilemma.
Boredom's not a burden
Anyone should bear.
Constant over stimu-lation numbs me
and I wouldn't have
It any other way.
It's not enough.
I need more.
Nothing seems to satisfy.
I don't want it.
I just need it.
To feel, to breathe, to know I'm alive.
Finger deep within the borderline.
Show me that you love me and that we belong together.
Relax, turn around and take my hand.
I can help you change
Tired moments into pleasure.
Say the word and we'll be
Well upon our way.
Blend and balance
Pain and comfort
Deep within you
Till you will not have me any other way.
It's not enough.
I need more.
Nothing seems to satisfy.

The River In Reverse
(Elvis Costello)
How long does a promise last?
How long can a lie be told?
What would I take in exchange for my soul?
Would I notice when it was sold?
Wake me up
Wake me up
Wake me up with a slap or a kiss
There must be something better than this
'Cos I don't see how it can get much worse
What do we have to do to send
The river in reverse
Every man a crawling kingsnake
Every girl a half a heartbreak
Every woman sold into shame
To any son without a name
Are your arms too weak to lift?
Another shovel on the graveyard shift
Here comes the flood if you catch my drift
Where the things that they promised are not a gift
If man falls through the mirror of a lake
They fish him out quick and they call him a fake
Give him all the temptations he can take
Tie him up high 'til his bones break
Wake me up
Wake me up
Wake me up with a slap or a kiss
There must be something better than this
'Cos I don't see how it can get much worse
What do we have to do to send
The river in reverse
I thought I heard somebody laugh
Look out your window
They're chasing shadows in the dark
They're counting widows
I felt a sliver of glass
Saw a cross in splinters
I felt the truce of spring
Dig me out of the trench of winter
So count your blessings when they ask permission
To govern with money and superstition
They tell you it's all for your own protection
'Til you fear your own reflection
But the times are passing from illumination
Like bodies falling from a constellation
An uncivil war divides the nation
So erase the tape on that final ape running down creation
Running down creation
Wake me up
Wake me up
Wake me up with a slap or a kiss
There must be something better than this
Wake me up
Wake me up with a slap or a kiss
There must be something better than this

<font face="times new roman,times"><font size="3"><strong>Dogs </strong>(Waters, Gilmour) 17:06 <br /><br />You gotta be crazy, you gotta have a real need.<br />You gotta sleep on your toes, and when you're on the street,<br />You gotta be able to pick out the easy meat with your eyes closed.<br />And then moving in silently, down wind and out of sight,<br />You gotta strike when the moment is right without thinking.<br /><br />And after a while, you can work on points for style.<br />Like the club tie, and the firm handshake,<br />A certain look in the eye and an easy smile.<br />You have to be trusted by the people that you lie to,<br />So that when they turn their backs on you,<br />You'll get the chance to put the knife in.<br /><br />You gotta keep one eye looking over your shoulder.<br />You know it's going to get harder, and harder, and harder as you<br />get older.<br />And in the end you'll pack up and fly down south,<br />Hide your head in the sand,<br />Just another sad old man,<br />All alone and dying of cancer.<br /><br />And when you loose control, you'll reap the harvest you have sown.<br />And as the fear grows, the bad blood slows and turns to stone.<br />And it's too late to lose the weight you used to need to throw <br />around.<br />So have a good drown, as you go down, all alone,<br />Dragged down by the stone.<br /><br />I gotta admit that I'm a little bit confused.<br />Sometimes it seems to me as if I'm just being used.<br />Gotta stay awake, gotta try and shake off this creeping malaise.<br />If I don't stand my own ground, how can I find my way out of this<br />maze?<br /><br />Deaf, dumb, and blind, you just keep on pretending<br />That everyone's expendable and no-one has a real friend.<br />And it seems to you the thing to do would be to isolate the winner<br />And everything's done under the sun,<br />And you believe at heart, everyone's a killer.<br /><br />Who was born in a house full of pain.<br />Who was trained not to spit in the fan.<br />Who was told what to do by the man.<br />Who was broken by trained personnel.<br />Who was fitted with collar and chain.<br />Who was given a pat on the back.<br />Who was breaking away from the pack.<br />Who was only a stranger at home.<br />Who was ground down in the end.<br />Who was found dead on the phone.<br />Who was dragged down by the stone.</font></font>
This has been my favorite FLOYD song for a quite a while. Long, brooding & nasty! Saw Waters perform this live a few years ago. A true thrill!

Rush - Middletown Dreams
The office door closed early
The hidden bottle came out
The salesman turned to close the blinds
A little slow now, a little stout
But he's still heading down those tracks
Any day now for sure
Another day as drab as today
Is more than a man can endure
Dreams flow across the heartland
Feeding on the fires
Dreams transport desires
Drive you when you're down
Dreams transport the ones who need to get out of town
The boy walks with his best friend
Through the fields of early May
They walk awhile in silence
One close, one far away
But he'd be climbing on that bus
Just him and his guitar
To blaze across the heavens
Like a brilliant shooting star
The middle aged Madonna
Calls her neighbor on the phone
Day by day the seasons pass
And leave her life alone
But she'll go walking out that door
On some bright afternoon
To go and paint big cities
From a lonely attic room
It's understood
By every single person
Who'd be elsewhere if they could
So far so good
And life's not unpleasant
In their little neighborhood
They dream in Middletown

Clutch - Promoter (of Earthbound causes)
Warmed up my motor, swindled the promoter
Took a lunatic for a ride
And a little voice said inside my head
Rosemary baby, I got the thyme
Suffering madness and the Pharoah’s plague
I, Akhenaten tell you some other day
No thank you, that’s enough for me
A little bit of Ritalin goes a long way
Ready to rock if you want to roll
Please step away from the vehicle
Ragnarock and revolutionize
Gimme just a minute while I clarify
Cooled down my temper, tried to remember
What it was I wasn’t to lose
And I probably could were it not for
The beer and the broads and the broads and the booze.
Hooked on stupid, and the whole shebang
I never have ever felt the same
No thank you, that’s enough for me
That’s prozacly not what I need
Ready to rock if you want to roll
Please step away from the vehicle
Ragnarock and revolutionize
Gimme just a minute while I clarify

Raining On Sunday
It ticks just like a Timex
It never lets up on you
Who said life was easy
The job is never through
It'll run us 'til we're ragged
It'll harden our hearts
And love could use a day of rest
Before we both start falling apart
Pray that it's raining on Sunday
Stormin' like crazy
We'll hide under the covers all afternoon
Baby whatever comes Monday
Can take care of itself
'Cause we got better things that we could do
When it's raining on Sunday
Your love is like religion
A cross in Mexico
And your kiss is like the innocence
Of a prayer nailed to a door
Oh surrender in much sweeter
When we both let it go
Let the water wash our bodies clean
And love wash our souls
Pray that it's raining on Sunday
Stormin' like crazy
We'll hide under the covers all afternoon
Baby whatever comes Monday
Can take care of itself
'Cause we got better things that we could do
When it's raining on Sunday
Pray that it's raining on Sunday
Stormin' like crazy
We'll hide under the covers all afternoon
Baby whatever comes Monday
Can take care of itself
'Cause we got better things that we could do
When it's raining on Sunday
When it's raining on Sunday
When it's raining on Sunday
Let it rain

"Fearless" - Pink Floyd
You say the hill's too steep to climb
Climb it.
You say you'd like to see me try
Climbing.
You pick the place and I'll choose the time
And I'll climb
That hill in my own way.
Just wait a while for the right day.
And as I rise above the tree lines and the clouds
I look down, hearing the sound of the things you've said today.
"Accidentally Like a Martyr" - Warren Zevon
The phone don't ring
And the sun refused to shine
Never thought I'd have to pay so dearly
For what was already mine
For such a long, long time
We made mad love
Shadow love
Random love
And abandoned love
Accidentally like a martyr
The hurt gets worse and the heart gets harder
The days slide by
Should have done, should have done, we all sigh
Never thought I'd ever be so lonely
After such a long, long time
Time out of mind
We made mad love
Shadow love
Random love
And abandoned love
Accidentally like a martyr
The hurt gets worse and the heart gets harder
"Visions of Johanna" - Bob Dylan
Ain't it just like the night to play tricks when you're tryin' to be so quiet?
We sit here stranded, though we're all doin' our best to deny it
And Louise holds a handful of rain, temptin' you to defy it
Lights flicker from the opposite loft
In this room the heat pipes just cough
The country music station plays soft
But there's nothing, really nothing to turn off
Just Louise and her lover so entwined
And these visions of Johanna that conquer my mind
In the empty lot where the ladies play blindman's bluff with the key chain
And the all-night girls they whisper of escapades out on the "D" train
We can hear the night watchman click his flashlight
Ask himself if it's him or them that's really insane
Louise, she's all right, she's just near
She's delicate and seems like the mirror
But she just makes it all too concise and too clear
That Johanna's not here
The ghost of 'lectricity howls in the bones of her face
Where these visions of Johanna have now taken my place
Now, little boy lost, he takes himself so seriously
He brags of his misery, he likes to live dangerously
And when bringing her name up
He speaks of a farewell kiss to me
He's sure got a lotta gall to be so useless and all
Muttering small talk at the wall while I'm in the hall
How can I explain?
Oh, it's so hard to get on
And these visions of Johanna, they kept me up past the dawn
Inside the museums, Infinity goes up on trial
Voices echo this is what salvation must be like after a while
But Mona Lisa musta had the highway blues
You can tell by the way she smiles
See the primitive wallflower freeze
When the jelly-faced women all sneeze
Hear the one with the mustache say, "Jeez
I can't find my knees"
Oh, jewels and binoculars hang from the head of the mule
But these visions of Johanna, they make it all seem so cruel
The peddler now speaks to the countess who's pretending to care for him
Sayin', "Name me someone that's not a parasite and I'll go out and say a prayer for him"
But like Louise always says
"Ya can't look at much, can ya man?"
As she, herself, prepares for him
And Madonna, she still has not showed
We see this empty cage now corrode
Where her cape of the stage once had flowed
The fiddler, he now steps to the road
He writes ev'rything's been returned which was owed
On the back of the fish truck that loads
While my conscience explodes
The harmonicas play the skeleton keys and the rain
And these visions of Johanna are now all that remain

"Older" - They Might Be Giants
You're older than you've ever been
And now you're even older
And now you're even older
And now you're even older
You're older than you've ever been
And now you're even older
And now you're older still

And time is still marching on
This day will soon be at an end
And now it's even sooner
And now it's even sooner
And now it's even sooner

Wish You Were Here
So, so you think you can tell
Heaven from Hell,
Blue skys from pain.
Can you tell a green field
From a cold steel rail?
A smile from a veil?
Do you think you can tell?
And did they get you to trade
Your heros for ghosts?
Hot ashes for trees?
Hot air for a cool breeze?
Cold comfort for change?
And did you exchange
A walk on part in the war
For a lead role in a cage?
How I wish, how I wish you were here.
We're just two lost souls
Swimming in a fish bowl,
Year after year,
Running over the same old ground.
What have we found?
The same old fears.
Wish you were here.

Six Feet Under - Impulse To Disembowel
Back again to kill and gut
I crave intestine
Fist-fucked reduced to a stump
Kill - all
Skinless body
Naked hanging
Blood as draining
Carving, killing
Swollen beauty
Holes appearing
Brutalizing, convulsing
Skinned and greasy
Still breathing
Anal carving
Holes are oozing
Slit your throat - deep
Off cane your head
Pulled out the guts
Right through your fucking neck!
Don't think I give a fuck about your life or religion
I don't fucking care about the world you fucking live in
Injecting bleach into your eyes - body starts to quiver
Spilled your guts onto the floor - consume the fecal drainage
Liver withered - appendix punctured, pancreatic explosion
Knife scraping spinal bone
Like nails on a chalk board
The pigs the want to lock me up
But the still don't know who I am
I leave a trail of blood and guts - cold - Impulse to disembowel

If it makes you less sad, I will die by your hand. I hope you find out what you want. I already know what I am.
And if it makes you less sad, we'll start talking again. And you can tell me how vile I already know that I am.
I'll grow old and start acting my age. I'll be a brand new day in a life that you hate.
A crown of gold. A heart that's harder than stone. And it hurts a whole lot, but it's missed when it's gone.
Call me a safe bet. I'm betting I'm not. I'm glad that you can forgive. I'm only hoping as time goes, you can forget.
If it makes you less sad, I'll move out of the state. You can keep to yourself. I'll keep out of your way.
And if it makes you less sad, I'll take your pictures all down. Every picture you paint, I will paint myself out.
It's cold as a tomb, and it's dark in your room, when I sneak to your bed to pour salt in your wounds. So call it quits or get a grip. Say you wanted a solution. You just wanted to be missed.
Call me a safe bet. I'm betting I'm not. I'm glad that you can forgive.I'm only hoping as time goes, you can forget...
You are calm and reposed. Let your beauty unfold. Pale white, like the skin stretched over your bones. Spring keeps you ever close. You are second hand smoke. You are so fragile and thin. Standing trial for your sins. Holding onto yourself the best you can. You are the smell before rain. You are the blood in my veins.
Call me a safe bet. I'm betting I'm not. I'm glad that you can forgive. I'm only hoping as time goes, you can forget.

I'm not here to forget you

I don't wanna get over you
I don't wanna get over you
They ought to give me the Wurlitzer Prize
For all the silver I let slide down the slot
Playin' those songs sung blue
That help me remember you
I don't wanna get over you
A fresh roll o' quarters, same old songs
Missin' you through and through
I don't wanna get over you
I don't wanna get over you

You handed me fragrant bouquets of emotion
And i forgot
To feed them water and warm sun
You know I'm not good with responsibility
This necktie hugs me like a strangler in the
night
I avoid the looks from my Captain Hook whil
I bake under these lights
I'll be tossed in the musty brig if they know
I've learned the truth
That this numbing job is an iron claw intent to
rob my youth
My life's just a fantasy, its a neverending
battle between the thrill and tedium
If you're looking for adventure, grab onto
my hand, there's just one rule:
You can't grow up, you can't grow up
It can stunt your growth, stowing away
with such a fool
It's hard to evolve when firmly resolved to
betray the adult world
My life's just a fantasy, and adventure
is still the only thing for which I lust
If you're looking for some fun, just grab
onto my hand but let me warn you now
I won't grow up, I won't grow up
So wendy flew back home, she's ready to
grow old
She's sick of playing mother while i self-
ishly withold
My chance to be a man, I just want attention
I only want to lead this legion of lost children
Now kids, clutch your daggers tight and sneak
aboard this vile ship
We'll make these villains walk the plank and we'll
obey only the wind
I can hear the clock ticking
And I notice I'm all alone
But there will always be one more
Who wants to fly out the window

Bob Dylan - It's Alright, Ma (I'm Only Bleeding)
Darkness at the break of noon
Shadows even the silver spoon
The handmade blade, the child's balloon
Eclipses both the sun and moon
To understand you know too soon
There is no sense in trying.
Pointed threats, they bluff with scorn
Suicide remarks are torn
From the fool's gold mouthpiece
The hollow horn plays wasted words
Proves to warn
That he not busy being born
Is busy dying.
Temptation's page flies out the door
You follow, find yourself at war
Watch waterfalls of pity roar
You feel to moan but unlike before
You discover
That you'd just be
One more person crying.
So don't fear if you hear
A foreign sound to your ear
It's alright, Ma, I'm only sighing.
As some warn victory, some downfall
Private reasons great or small
Can be seen in the eyes of those that call
To make all that should be killed to crawl
While others say don't hate nothing at all
Except hatred.
Disillusioned words like bullets bark
As human gods aim for their mark
Made everything from toy guns that spark
To flesh-colored Christs that glow in the dark
It's easy to see without looking too far
That not much
Is really sacred.
While preachers preach of evil fates
Teachers teach that knowledge waits
Can lead to hundred-dollar plates
Goodness hides behind its gates
But even the president of the United States
Sometimes must have
To stand naked.
An' though the rules of the road have been lodged
It's only people's games that you got to dodge
And it's alright, Ma, I can make it.
Advertising signs that con you
Into thinking you're the one
That can do what's never been done
That can win what's never been won
Meantime life outside goes on
All around you.
You lose yourself, you reappear
You suddenly find you got nothing to fear
Alone you stand with nobody near
When a trembling distant voice, unclear
Startles your sleeping ears to hear
That somebody thinks
They really found you.
A question in your nerves is lit
Yet you know there is no answer fit to satisfy
Insure you not to quit
To keep it in your mind and not fergit
That it is not he or she or them or it
That you belong to.
Although the masters make the rules
For the wise men and the fools
I got nothing, Ma, to live up to.
For them that must obey authority
That they do not respect in any degree
Who despise their jobs, their destinies
Speak jealously of them that are free
Cultivate their flowers to be
Nothing more than something
They invest in.
While some on principles baptized
To strict party platform ties
Social clubs in drag disguise
Outsiders they can freely criticize
Tell nothing except who to idolize
And then say God bless him.
While one who sings with his tongue on fire
Gargles in the rat race choir
Bent out of shape from society's pliers
Cares not to come up any higher
But rather get you down in the hole
That he's in.
But I mean no harm nor put fault
On anyone that lives in a vault
But it's alright, Ma, if I can't please him.
Old lady judges watch people in pairs
Limited in sex, they dare
To push fake morals, insult and stare
While money doesn't talk, it swears
Obscenity, who really cares
Propaganda, all is phony.
While them that defend what they cannot see
With a killer's pride, security
It blows the minds most bitterly
For them that think death's honesty
Won't fall upon them naturally
Life sometimes
Must get lonely.
My eyes collide head-on with stuffed graveyards
False gods, I scuff
At pettiness which plays so rough
Walk upside-down inside handcuffs
Kick my legs to crash it off
Say okay, I have had enough
What else can you show me?
And if my thought-dreams could be seen
They'd probably put my head in a guillotine
But it's alright, Ma, it's life, and life only.

You got a boy-child comin', gonna be a son-of-a-gun
Gonna make these pretty women, jump and shout
And the world will only know, a-what it's all about
Y'know I'm here
Everybody knows I'm here
And I'm the hoochie-coochie man
Everybody knows I'm here
On the seventh hour, of the seventh day,
on the seventh month, the seventh doctor said:
"He's born for good luck, and I know you see;
Got seven hundred dollars, and don't you mess with me
Y'know I'm here
Everybody knows I'm here
And I'm the hoochie-coochie man
Everybody knows I'm here

Said "Ooh, what a boy,

jump and shout for joy"

Well a box of red, and a pill or three,
And I'm calling time and temperature just for some company.
I wish you were here. I wish I was too.
I'll drink myself to sleeplessness, I always do.
-Old 97s
just reminds me of being listless, with nothing to entertain myself with but chemicals
Old 97s have some great lyrics. My favorite is probably "Barrier Reef", although it's tough to choose.
The Empty Bottle was half-empty
Tide was low and I was thirsty
Saw her sitting at the bar
You know how some girls are
Always making eyes
Well she wasn't making eyes
So I sidled up beside her
Settled down and shouted hi there
My name's Stewart Ransom Miller
I'm a serial lady killer
She said I'm already dead
That's exactly what she said
So we tripped the lights fantastic
We was both made of elastic
Midnight came and midnight went
And I thought I was the president
She said do you have a car?
And I said do I have a car?
What's so great about the barrier reef
What's so fine about art
What's so good about a Good Times van
When you're working on a broken working on a broken
Working on a broken man
My heart wasn't in it
Not for one single minute
I went through the motions with her
Her on top and me on liqour
Didn't do no good
Well I didn't think it would
What's so great about the barrier reef
What's so fine about art
What's so good about a Good Times van
When you're working on a broken working on a broken
Working on a broken man

You've got alot to learn before I let you go
Theres things you need to see and things you need to know
They say,
We wont,
Make it.
What do they know?
They say,
We can't,
Do it,
But I've got to know..
And is it getting better?
Is it getting worse?
Was it ever worth it?
Was it just a curse?
and is it getting better now?
and is it getting better now?
You've got alot to do before I let you stay
Theres things you need to see and things you need to say
They say,
We wont,
Make it.
What do they know?
They say,
We can't,
Do it,
But I've got to know..
Brother Pele's in the back, sweet Zina's in the front
Cruisin' down the freeway in the hot, hot sun
Suddenly red-blue lights flash us from behind
Loud voice booming, "Please step out onto the line"
Pele preaches words of comfort, Zina just hides her eyes
Policeman taps his shades, "Is that a Chevy '69?"
How bizarre
How bizarre, how bizarre
Destination unknown, as we pull in for some gas
Freshly pasted poster reveals a smile from the past
Elephants and acrobats, lions snakes monkey
Pele speaks "righteous," Sister Zina says "funky"
How bizarre
How bizarre, how bizarre
Ooh, baby (Ooh, baby)
It's making me crazy (It's making me crazy)
Everytime I look around
Everytime I look around (Everytime I look around)
Everytime I look around
It's in my face
Ring master steps out and says "the elephants left town"
People jump and jive, but the clowns have stuck around
TV news and camera, there's choppers in the sky
Marines, police, reporters ask where, for and why
Pele yells, "We're outta here," Zina says, "Right on"
We're making moves and starting grooves before they knew we were gone
Jumped into the Chevy and headed for big lights
Wanna know the rest? Hey, buy the rights...
How bizarre
How bizarre, how bizarre
Ooh, baby (Ooh, baby)
It's making me crazy (It's making me crazy)
Everytime I look around
Everytime I look around (Everytime I look around)
Everytime I look around
It's in my face

she was sixteen
and six feet tall
in a crowd of teenagers
coming out of the zoo
she stumbled
started to slip and fall
teeter tottered on the top
of patent leather shoes
i happen to catch her and said
"maybe these ruby shoes are
a little cumbersome for you"
maybe for you, now
but not as shaky
as i must've seemed
talking junk through her
giggle little teenage dream
and on the phone i could not compete
my dumb luck
fake confidence
was getting weak
and for a sec
i thought i sounded sweet
but sure enough
in a gruff faint voice
i heard myself speak...
i could stay awhile
but sooner or later
i'll break your smile
and i can tell a joke
but one of these days
i'm bound to choke
and we could share a kiss
but i feel like i can't go
through with this
and i bet we could build a home
but i know the right thing
for me to do
is to leave you alone
i'm beginning to like you
so you probably won't get
what i'm going to do
i'm walking away from you
it probably don't make
no sense to you
but i'm trying to save you
from all the things that
i'll probably say or do
i'll probably do now
i could stay awhile
but sooner or later
i'll break your smile
and i can tell a joke
but one of these days
i'm bound to choke
and we could share a kiss
but i feel like i can't go
through with this
and i bet we could build a home
but i know the right thing
for me to do
is to leave you alone
you'll probably call me a fool
and say i'm doing exactly
what a coward would do
and i'm beginning to like you
it's a shame
what a lame way to live
but what can i do?
well i hope you appreciate
what i do...
i'm a martyr for my love for you

lily you can hear it in their voices how you’ve made them proud
at the top of your voice there is no doing wrong i swear
lily you be just who you are
don’t keep appointments
with disappointment
hiding in a hiding place you don’t have to look away
the mississippi brings new water every day
look at the sun how it glows in a million waves
lily there are just as many ways
at the top of your voice there is no doing wrong i swear

the raconteurs - together
You and me forever
We belong together
And we'll always endeavor
Throughout any type of weather
You want everything to be just like
The stories that you read but never write
You gotta learn to live and live and learn
You gotta learn to give and wait your turn
Or you'll get burned
You wrote our names down on the sidewalk
The rain came and washed 'em off
So we should write 'em again on wet cement
So maybe people a long time from now will know what we meant
You want every morning to be just like
The stories that you read but never write
You gotta learn to live and live and learn
You gotta learn to give and wait your turn
My only concern
I'm adding something new to the mixture
So there's a different hue to your picture
A different ending to this fairytale
When the sunset into which we sail
You want everything to be just like
The stories that you read but you can't write
You gotta learn to live and live and learn
You gotta learn to give and wait your turn
Or you'll get burned

Subhumans- Work, Rest, Play, Die
When the people of the country have forgotten how to disagree
And the national economy is said to be OK
And the wages that you get will help you to forget
Will you keep your ideologies or throw them all away?
When the system has you beaten
Even now you haven't eaten
Cos you can't afford to eat or drink to keep your brain alive
You blame the system for the weather but carry on as ever
You go to work at half past eight and come back home at five
You can go blue in the face talking about the human race
How they got to outer space but it never stopped the wars
And how the whole of this humanity is based on greed and vanity
The ones who make decisions are the ones who make the laws
But you're still in this society
So what's your main priority
Remain in the majority who never really cared?
Or cultivate the hate to annihilate the state
Are you prepared to die for your beliefs or just to dye your hair?
The anarchist, the nihilist but can you prove that you exist
To apopulation who insist you're just a bunch of fakes
You cannot change the system until you change your own restrictions
Communication and conviction - got to kick until it breaks
These are lyrics I wrote on the wall in my room when I was 17.
And on my closet door in my first apartment when I was 20 (only 4 years ago,haha)
This is my favorite band and my favorite lyrics.

I want to crawl inside your womb,
I want to watch the rose on your cheeks bloom.
I want to be the face in the moon,
And watch the stars spin around your room.
All your carefully worded letters,
And your carefully spoken words.
I will continue to evolve,
I will continue to revolve around your sun.
'Cause you are the only one!...
Who understands who reaches out with both hands.
And even while your fading I'm just shivering and waiting.
I will continue to evolve,
I will continue to revolve around your sun.
'Cause you are the only one!...
I want to drink deep from your well,
I want to be the heart for which you fell.
I want to be a shooting star,
Across the heavens to be where you are.
All your carefully worded letters,
And your carefully spoken words.
I will continue to evolve,
I will continue to revolve around your sun.
'Cause you are the only one!...
Who understands who reaches out with both hands.
And even while your fading I'm just shivering and waiting.
I will continue to evolve,
I will continue to revolve around your sun.
'Cause you are the only one!...
I want to crawl inside your womb,
I want to watch the rose on your cheeks bloom.
I will continue to evolve,
I will continue to revolve around your sun.
'Cause you are the only one!...
Who understands who reaches out with both hands.
And even while your fading I'm just shivering and waiting.
Who understands who reaches out with both hands.
And even while your fading I'm just shivering and waiting.
I will continue to evolve,
I will continue to revolve around your sun.
'Cause you are the only one!...
Time missing out.
You're missing out.
I'm missing out.
We're missing out.
You are the only one...
Time missing out.
You're missing out.
I'm missing out.
We're missing out.
You are the only one...

I only went with your mother ’cause she’s dirty
And I don’t have a decent bone in me
What you get is just what you see yeah
I should so I take it free yeah
And all the bad preserves be things that feed me
I never help or give to the needy
Come on and see me
Yippee-ippee-ey-ey-ay-yey-yey
I had to crucify some brother today
And I don’t dig what you gotta say
So come on and say it
Come on and tell me twice
I said dad you’re a shabby
You run around and groove like a baggy
You’re only here just out of habit
All that’s mine you might as well have it
You take 10p back and then stab it
Spray it on and tag it
So sack on me
I can’t stand the needy
Get around here if you’re asking you’re feeling

Written By Warren Zevon & Jorge Calderon
c. 1991, Zevon Music,
administered by Warner-Tamerlane Publishing corp./Googolplex Music BMI
I started as an altar boy, working at the church
Learning all my holy moves, doing some research
Which led me to a cash box, labeled "Children's Fund"
I'd leave the change, and tuck the bills inside my cummerbund
I got a part-time job at my father's carpet store
Laying tackless stripping, and housewives by the score
I loaded up their furniture, and took it to Spokane
And auctioned off every last naugahyde divan
I'm very well aquainted with the seven deadly sins
I keep a busy schedule trying to fit them in
I'm proud to be a glutton, and I don't have time for sloth
I'm greedy, and I'm angry, and I don't care who I cross
I'm Mr. Bad Example, intruder in the dirt
I like to have a good time, and I don't care who gets hurt
I'm Mr. Bad Example, take a look at me
I'll live to be a hundred, and go down in infamy
Of course I went to law school and took a law degree
And counseled all my clients to plead insanity
Then worked in hair replacement, swindling the bald
Where very few are chosen, and fewer still are called
Then on to Monte Carlo to play chemin de fer
I threw away the fortune I made transplanting hair
I put my last few francs down on a prostitute
Who took me up to her room to perform the flag salute
Whereupon I stole her passport and her wig
And headed for the airport and the midnight flight, you dig?
And fourteen hours later I was down in Adelaide
Looking through the want ads sipping Fosters in the shade
I opened up an agency somewhere down the line
To hire aboriginals to work the opal mines
But I attached their wages and took a whopping cut
And whisked away their workman's comp and pauperized the lot
I'm Mr. Bad Example, intruder in the dirt
I like to have a good time, and I don't care who gets hurt
I'm Mr. Bad Example, take a look at me
I'll live to be a hundred and go down in infamy
I bought a first class ticket on Malaysian Air
And landed in Sri Lanka none the worse for wear
I'm thinking of retiring from all my dirty deals
I'll see you in the next life, wake me up for meals

Any minute now, my ship is coming in
I'll keep checking the horizon
I'll stand on the bow, feel the waves come crashing
Come crashing down down down, on me
And you say, be still my love
Open up your heart
Let the light shine in
But don't you understand
I already have a plan
I'm waiting for my real life to begin
When I awoke today, suddenly nothing happened
But in my dreams, I slew the dragon
And down this beaten path, and up this cobbled lane
I'm walking in my old footsteps, once again
And you say, just be here now
Forget about the past, your mask is wearing thin
Let me throw one more dice
I know that I can win
I'm waiting for my real life to begin
Any minute now, my ship is coming in
I'll keep checking the horizon
And I'll check my machine, there's sure to be that call
It's gonna happen soon, soon, soon
It's just that times are lean
And you say, be still my love
Open up your heart, let the light shine in
Don't you understand
I already have a plan
I'm waiting for my real life to begin

"Skin On Skin"
From the moment you said "why haven't you kissed me yet?"
I knew I'd wipe that paint from your lips
I stare the lids off your eyes, gone down on your dirty mind
& end up between your hips
Handfuls of sweat tangled hair, anytime, anywhere
I wanna lick you too much baby
I just play all alone, whispering for your moan
Forced to crawl down this line, just to touch
I can get in
I can't get out
I'm just sweating my sheets
I hate to see you leave, but I love to watch you go baby
Twisted secret lives, the way you bat your eyes
Givin' head, givin' head, givin' head
Watch you come from above
I'm so needy for love, I'm desperate,
Greedy in slavery
I sneak around from behind
I got a one track mind
We got a skin on skin thing baby
I wanna lick you too much
I hear you comin', ooh, aaaah, baby

Saw you down there on the marble slab
The best trip that I've ever had
High up in a jet plane, pass it around
My drinks on empty, need another round
I wanna fly, wanna ride with you
Is this the best that you can do?
I wanna fly, wanna ride with you
High up in a jet plane with you
When we arrive in the middle of nowhere
Don't act like you know, I been here so many times
I never seen you before
But now that I have, I don't wanna see you no more
High up in a jet plane with you
High up in a jet plane with you
Ah-ah, auto pilot no control

Ah-ah, auto pilot no control
Ah-ah, ahh
High up in a jet plane with you

I love these because they are simply absurd:
At The Drive In: invalid Litter Dept
Intravenously polite it was the walkie-talkies
that had knocked the pins down
these shoes gripped the floor
in the silhouette of dying
dancing on the corpses ashes
yeah, they had plans for him
they had spun the last of the pimps
polyester, satin nailed jewellery lips
while the guillotine laughed again
dancing on the corpses ashes
and the paramedics fell into the wound
like a rehired scab at a barehanded plant
an anesthetic penance beneath
the hail of the contraband
dancing on the corpses ashes
on my way
nails broke and fell
into the
wishing well, wishing well
wishing well, wishing well
x2
they had defected and been excommunicated
and all the pulses were subverted
and they made sure that the obituaries
showed pictures of smoke stacks
dancing on the corpses ashes
a vivid dissection that mocked
the strut of vivisection
a semi-automatic colony
and a silencing that still walks the streets
dancing on the corpses ashes
in the company of wolves
was a stretcher made of
cobblestone curfews
the federales perform
their custodial customs well
dancing on the corpses ashes
intravenously polite it was the walkie-talkies
that had knocked the pins down
these shoes gripped the floor
in the silhouette of dying
dancing on the corpses ashes
yeah, they had plans for him
they had spun the last of the pimps
polyester, satin nailed jewellery lips
while the guillotine laughed again
dancing on the corpses ashes
and the paramedics fell into the wound
like a rehired scab at a barehanded plant
an anesthetic penance beneath
the hail of the contraband
dancing on the corpses ashes
callous heels
numbed in travel
endless maps made
by their scalpels
on my way
nails broke and fell
into the
wishing well, wishing well

I've become a hideous mush since I became a dad. This song would have meant nothing to me four years ago. Now, it almost breaks me up every time I hear it.
To save a little face here, the guy who wrote it was one of the 48 people that was at the Union Hall Concert in Manchester with the Buzzcocks and the Sex Pistols the night that English Punk and the Manchester sound were born:
You've got that look again
The one I hoped I had when I was a lad
Your face is just beaming
Your smile got me boasting, my pulse roller- coastering
Any way the four winds that blow
They're gonna send me sailing home to you
Or I'll fly with the force of a rainbow
The dream of gold will be waiting in your eyes
You know I'd do most anything you want
Hey I, I try to give you everything you need
I can see that it gets to you
I don't believe in many things
But in you I do
Her faith is amazing
The pain that she goes through contained in
The hope for you
Her whole world has changed
The years spent before seem more cloudy
Than blue
In many ways your baby's controlling
When you haven't laid down for days
For the poor no time to be thinking
They're too busy finding ways
You know I'd do most anything you want
Hey I, I try to give you everything you need
I'll see that it gets to you
I don't believe in many things
But in you I do
You know I'd do most anything you want
Every day I, try to give you everything you
Need
We'll always be there for you
I don't believe in many things
But in you I do
"Lake Marie" by John Prine
We were standing
Standing by peaceful waters
Standing by peaceful waters
Whoa Wah Oh Wha Oh
Whoa Wah Oh Wha Oh
Many years ago along the Illinois-Wisconsin Border
There was this Indian tribe
They found two babies in the woods
White babies
One of them was named Elizabeth
She was the fairer of the two
While the smaller and more fragile one was named Marie
Having never seen white girls before
And living on the two lakes known as the Twin Lakes
They named the larger and more beautiful Lake, Lake Elizabeth
And thus the smaller lake that was hidden from the highway
Became known forever as Lake Marie
We were standing
Standing by peaceful waters
Standing by peaceful waters
Whoa Wah Oh Wha Oh
Whoa Wah Oh Wha Oh
Many years later I found myself talking to this girl
Who was standing there with her back turned to Lake Marie
The wind was blowing especially through her hair
There was four Italian sausages cooking on the outdoor grill
And Man, they was ssssssssizzlin'
Many years later we found ourselves in Canada
Trying to save our marriage and perhaps catch a few fish
Whatever seemed easier
That night she fell asleep in my arms
Humming the tune to 'Louie Louie'
Aah baby, We gotta go now.
We were standing
Standing by peaceful waters
Standing by peaceful waters
Whoa Wah Oh Wha Oh
Whoa Wah Oh Wha Oh
The dogs were barking as the cars were parking
The loan sharks were sharking the narcs were narcing
Practically everyone was there
In the parking lot by the forest preserve
The police had found two bodies
Nay, naked bodies
Their faces had been horribly disfigured by some sharp object
Saw it on the news
On the TV news
In a black and white video
You know what blood looks like in a black and white video?
Shadows, Shadows that's exactly what it looks like
All the love we shared between her and me was slammed
Slammed up against the banks of Old Lake Marie, Marie
We were standing
Standing by peaceful waters
Standing by peaceful waters
Whoa Wah Oh Wha Oh
Whoa Wah Oh Wha Oh
Whoa Wah Oh Wha Oh
Whoa Wah Oh Wha Oh
Standing by peaceful waters
Peaceful waters
Standing by peaceful waters
Peaceful waters
Standing by peaceful waters
Peaceful waters
Standing by peaceful waters
Peaceful waters
Ahh baby, we gotta go now

just thinking about one of my favorite lines earlier this evening.....
.....Little old lady got mutilated late last night......
since so many here seem to like tool (i'm an obsessive fan too), figured i'd post a gem by maynard i enjoy:
"I've been crawling on my belly
Clearing out what could've been.
I've been wallowing in my own confused
And insecure delusions
For a piece to cross me over
Or a word to guide me in.
I wanna feel the changes coming down.
I wanna know what I've been hiding in"
The lyrics take on much more depth if you're familiar with Jungian philosophy and the concept of the anima and animus (a prevailing theme of tool's whole aenima album. Or if you're lazy and don't feel like trudging through a bunch of psychology textbooks, I hear a massive dose of DMT works just as well

I'm just calling to say hello
How's the weather, how's my father
Am I lonely, heavens know
Mother, mother, are you listening
Just a phonecall to ease your mind
Life is perfect, never better
Distance making, the heart grow blind
When you sent me off to see the world
Were you scared that I might can hurt
Would I try a little to tobacco
Would I keep on hiking up my skirt
I'm hungry
I'm dirty
I'm losing my mind
Everything's fine
I'm freezing
I'm starving
I'm bleeding death
Everything's fine
Yeah, I'm working, making money
I'm just starting to build a name
I can feel it around the corner
I could make it any day
Mother mother, can you hear me
Sure I'm sober, sure I'm sane
Life is perfect, never better
Still your daughter, still the same
If I tell you what you want to hear
Will it help you to sleep well at night
Are you sure that I'm your perfect dear
Now just cuddle up and sleep tight
I'm hungry
I'm dirty
I'm losing my mind
Everything's fine

If they were right then I'd agree, but its them they know not me.
Now theres a way and I know that I have to go away.
I know I have to go."

The Saw Doctors
Never Mind the Strangers
It takes two to get together
It takes time to make it last
We'll all end up in some way
Like the drink in last night's glass
But we'll take this chance together
Lets not think about the end
Never mind the strangers
'Cos I'll always be your friend
until the end
We've crossed the sea together
We've had our ups and downs
We've gone further than we've ever dreamed
From our county Galway home
If we're up on top tomorrow
Or if it all just ends
Never mind the strangers
'Cos I'll always be your friend
until the end
It has'nt all been easy
But sure that's the way it is
We've been shaken, rocked and rattled
Taken jabs and body blows
There's a strenght in being together
Like a steel bar that won't bend
Never mind the strangers
'Cos I'll always be your friend
until the end
Even now it's hard to think back
When did it all begin
Was it some night drinking in Gay Brownes pub
Every soul is welcomed in
On this fine summers evening
As the blue of night descends
Never mind the strangers
'Cos I'll always be your friend
until the end
We've seen the other side of life
And no been too impressed
It does'nt beat a day at home
If you put it to the test
But at least we took the challenge
We did'nt just pretend
Never mind the strangers
'Cos I'll always
Always be your friend
until the end

The Flaming Lips
Do You Realize?
Do You Realize - that you have the most beautiful face
Do You Realize - we're floating in space
Do You Realize - that happiness makes you cry
Do You Realize - that everyone you know someday will die
And instead of saying all of your goodbyes - let them know
You realize that life goes fast
It's hard to make the good things last
You realize the sun doesn't go down
It's just an illusion caused by the world spinning round
Do You Realize - Oh - Oh - Oh
Do You Realize - that everyone you know
Someday will die -
And instead of saying all of your goodbyes - let them know
You realize that life goes fast
It's hard to make the good things last
You realize the sun doesn't go down
It's just an illusion caused by the world spinning round
Do You Realize - that you have the most beautiful face

Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
I'm begging of you, please don't take my man
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
Please don't take him even because you can
Your beauty is beyond compare
With flaming locks of auburn hair
With ivory skin and eyes of emerald green
Your smile is like a breath of spring
Your voice is soft like summer rain
And I cannot compete with you, Jolene
He talks about you in his sleep
And there's nothing I can do to keep
From crying when he calls your name, Jolene
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
I'm begging of you, please don't take my man
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
Please don't take him even because you can
Well, I can easily understand
How you could easily take my man
But you don't know what he means to me, Jolene
Well, you could have your choice of men
But I could never love again
He's the only one for me, Jolene
I had to have this talk with you
My happiness depends on you
And whatever you decide to do, Jolene
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
I'm begging of you, please don't take my man
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
Please don't take him even though you can

Stars - "Your Ex-Lover is Dead"
God that was strange to see you again
Introduced by a friend of a friend
Smiled and said 'yes I think we've met before'
In that instant it started to pour,
Captured a taxi despite all the rain
We drove in silence across Pont Champlain
And all of the time you thought I was sad
I was trying to remember your name...
This scar is a fleck on my porcelain skin
Tried to reach deep but you couldn't get in
Now you're outside me
You see all the beauty
Repent all your sin
It's nothing but time and a face that you lose
I chose to feel it and you couldn't choose
I'll write you a postcard
I'll send you the news
From a house down the road from real love...
Live through this, and you won't look back...
Live through this, and you won't look back...
Live through this, and you won't look back...
There's one thing I want to say, so I'll be brave
You were what I wanted
I gave what I gave
I'm not sorry I met you
I'm not sorry it's over
I'm not sorry there's nothing to save
I'm not sorry there's nothing to save..
Nasty Visions
Well I ain't got no real job
And I ain't got no real cash
Bet your mama would say
I'm a hell of a catch
Ain't got much but one thing I do
Is lots of nasty nasty visions of you
Don't need no Cadillac car
Don't need no big ol' jet plane
Yeah and I sure as hell
Don't need to hear another woman complain
All I need to see me through
Is all my nasty nasty visions of you
All I want's a guitar
One that's easy to play
May not get very far
But least I'll have somethin' to say
And all the while that I'm pickin' the blues
Be havin' nasty nasty visions of you
Now I need the big sleep
To come bring peace to my brain
All these visions of you
Are about to drive me insane
Only one dream I wish would come true
Stop havin' nasty nasty visions of you

They are masters of deception
They'll catch you in their cause
They will give you misdirection
When you're lost
They thrive on hate and anger
It gives them reason to belong
So riders on dark horses
Carry on
You can feel them in a cold heart
You can see them in a fire
You can feel them when you're lying
You can see them in desire
They are shadows with our faces
But they don't have to be
Still riders on dark horses carry on
Riders on dark horses
A day will come for dreamers
When they leave it all behind
Belongings on their shoulders
Sailing for a time
When the mist uncovers mountains
When the ships have found the shore
When riders on dark horses
Are no more
You can feel them in a cold heart
You can see them in a fire
You can feel them when you're lying
You can see them in desire
They are shadows with our faces
But they don't have to be
Still riders on dark horses carry on
Riders on dark horses

I’m up on him, he up on me

cuz i cried my tears, for three good years
Ya can’t be mad at me
Cuz if you liked it then you should have put a ring on it
If you liked it then you shoulda put a ring on it
Don’t be mad once you see that he wants it

I need a bed
That nobodys slept in
I need some air
Nobodys been breathing
I need a thought
That I can believe in
Is this fog
Or is the building really burning
I need you
Much more than ever
Im making new friends
But none of them matter
Maybe now
We dont fit together
But youve got your arms around
No one but strangers
I feel fine
With the sun in my eyes
The wind in my hair
When Im falling out of this sky
Im doing better than I thought I would
But nothings ever as good
As when youre on top
I want to wake up
And just start running
Into a ditch
Or straight up a mountain
I want to get
Where no one been gettin
Make it deeper than hell
Or make it higher than heaven
I need someone whose price hasnt been met
When everybodys disappearing
By the minute
There isnt anyone left
I havent meet yet
Well I remember
When they hadnt gotten to you yet
[chorus]
Half way up
And over this rainbow
I heard a shot
Fire up from a ghetto
As I drop
I didnt think youd follow
Just didnt know
The sky was this shallow
I need a garden
Where nothings forbidden
I need an apple
That no ones been eatin
I want to start again
Back at the beginnin
I had a vision
That this feeling maybe has an ending.

Walked around my good intentions
And found out there were none
I blame my father for the wasted years
We hardly talked
Never thought I would forget this hate
And a phone call made me realize I'm wrong
And if I don't make it known that
I loved you all along
Just like sunny days that
We ignored because
We're all dumb and jaded
And I hope to God I figure out whats wrong
Walked around my room not thinking
Sinking in this box
Blame myself for being too much like
Somebody else
I never thought I would just bend this way
Then a phone call made me realize I'm wrong
And if I don't make it known that
I loved you all along
Just like sunny days that
We ignored because
We're all dumb and jaded
And I hope to God I figure out whats wrong
And if I don't make it known that
I loved you all along
Just like sunny days that
We ignored because
We're all dumb and jaded
And I hope to God I figure out

2PAC - Changes
Come on come on
I see no changes wake up in the morning and I ask myself
is life worth living should I blast myself?
I'm tired of bein' poor & even worse I'm black
my stomach hurts so I'm lookin' for a purse to snatch
Cops give a damn about a negro
pull the trigger kill a nigga he's a hero
Give the crack to the kids who the hell cares
one less hungry mouth on the welfare
First ship 'em dope & let 'em deal the brothers
give 'em guns step back watch 'em kill each other
It's time to fight back that's what Huey said
2 shots in the dark now Huey's dead
I got love for my brother but we can never go nowhere
unless we share with each other
We gotta start makin' changes
learn to see me as a brother instead of 2 distant strangers
and that's how it's supposed to be
How can the Devil take a brother if he's close to me?
I'd love to go back to when we played as kids
but things changed, and that's the way it is
Come on come on
That's just the way it is
Things'll never be the same
That's just the way it is
aww yeah
[Repeat]
[2]
I see no changes all I see is racist faces
misplaced hate makes disgrace to races
We under I wonder what it takes to make this
one better place, let's erase the wasted
Take the evil out the people they'll be acting right
'cause both black and white is smokin' crack tonight
and only time we chill is when we kill each other
it takes skill to be real, time to heal each other
And although it seems heaven sent
We ain't ready, to see a black President, uhh
It ain't a secret don't conceal the fact
the penitentiary's packed, and it's filled with blacks
But some things will never change
try to show another way but you stayin' in the dope game
Now tell me what's a mother to do
bein' real don't appeal to the brother in you
You gotta operate the easy way
"I made a G today" But you made it in a sleazy way
sellin' crack to the kid. " I gotta get paid,"
Well hey, well that's the way it is
[Bridge]
[Talking:]
We gotta make a change...
It's time for us as a people to start makin' some changes.
Let's change the way we eat, let's change the way we live
and let's change the way we treat each other.
You see the old way wasn't working so it's on us to do
what we gotta do, to survive.
[3]
And still I see no changes can't a brother get a little peace
It's war on the streets & the war in the Middle East
Instead of war on poverty they got a war on drugs
so the police can bother me
And I ain't never did a crime I ain't have to do
But now I'm back with the facts givin' it back to you
Don't let 'em jack you up, back you up,
crack you up and pimp smack you up
You gotta learn to hold ya own
they get jealous when they see ya with ya mobile phone
But tell the cops they can't touch this
I don't trust this when they try to rush I bust this
That's the sound of my tool you say it ain't cool
my mama didn't raise no fool
And as long as I stay black I gotta stay strapped
& I never get to lay back
'Cause I always got to worry 'bout the pay backs
some punk that I roughed up way back
comin' back after all these years
rat-tat-tat-tat-tat that's the way it is uhh
[Bridge 'til fade:]
Some things will never change
[B]Metallica - Fade To Black
Life it seems will fade away
Drifting further every day
Getting lost within myself
Nothing matters, no one else
I have lost the will to live
Simply nothing more to give
There is nothing more for me
Need the end to set me free
Things not what they used to be
Missing one inside of me
Deathly lost, this can't be real
Cannot stand this hell I feel
Emptiness is filling me
To the point of agony
Growing darkness taking dawn
I was me but now he's gone
No one but me can save myself
But it's too late
Now I can't think
Think why I should even try
Yesterday seems as though
It never existed
Death greets me warm
Now I will just say goodbye

When I got my first job I said "Thank you", and "Please"
They made me scrub a parking lot down on my knees.
Then I got fired for being scared of bees,
And they only gave me 50 cents and hour.
Father forgive us for what we must do
You forgive us we'll forgive you
We'll forgive each other till we both turn blue
Then we'll whistle and go fishing in heaven.
Fat babies make me sick
Fat babies make me ill
All that fat baby drooling
And that fat baby smell
I said I don't like hippies
And I don't like cornbread
And I don't like much
But I like you
'Cause you like me
And you don't like much
And that's okay
'Cause fat babies have no pride
Fat babies have no pride
Fat babies have no pride
And that's okay

"Each Day Gets Better" John Legend
Ooooohhh...
Where do we go who knows
But each day gets better
I just can't let her go
(oh, oh no)
Each kiss gets sweeter
I just can leave her no
I'll write a song
I thought about it for far to long
But I Never had someone to sing about
Until I met her and each days get better
Nobody knows
Nobody sees
Nobody else understands me like she
Now there I Know what true love means
I Just hope she stays with me
Where do we go who knows
But each day gets better
I just can't let her go
(oh, oh no)
Each kiss gets sweeter
I just can leave her no
She Wants to breathe
She wants to be where the grass is green
She wants to know how love supposed to be
She wants it better
I want you to let her know
She belongs right here with me
She's heard it all but I'll make her see
I make her fall
Make her believe
I promised her that I never leave
And where do we go who knows
But each day gets better
I just can't let her go
(oh, oh no)
Each kiss gets sweeter
I just can leave her no
Each kiss gets sweeter
I just can leave her no
I Just Had to write a song about her
Tell her I don't wanna live without her
Tell her that I would build my world around her
Deeper and deeper
Sweeter and sweeter
I'll never leave her alone
And where do we go who knows
But each day gets better
I just can't let her go
(oh, oh no)
Each kiss gets sweeter
I just can leave her no
Each day gets better
I just can't let her go
Each day kiss gets sweeter
I just can't let her go

She gotta walk with a silicone cock
Sticking in her ass, and one in her cunt
A butterfly vibrator strapped tight to her clit
But who's got the remote control?
That would belong to Louise
She's got a new pet, a real vaginal tease
Mommy's little girl is gonna do as she please
If she don't wanna get a spanking
She likes to speak like a 6 year old brat
Mommy discipline me, you know I've been bad
Start with a cat then she'll move to a crop
Neither one is willing to stop
She knows how girls just wanna have fun
With four piercings on each side of her labia
A little luggage lock connecting each one
Prevents her girl from going astray
Slut you think you've seen your master mean?
You better lick my puss and asshole clean
Treat my clit like bubble gum
Bitch make me cum
It's time for bed she'll be secure in her head
Between her thighs for a thorough night suck
Along with this she'll be drinking her piss
So Louise don't have to get up
Two goddesses in love
One resides below, one reigns from above
One adorns and cuffs while one covets keys
The purgatorial touch, of Louise

You wave the red flag, baby
You make it run, run, run,
Standing on the sidelines, waving and grinning
You fondle my trigger, then you blame my gun..
Shadow Boxer
But, oh, it's so evil, my love
The way you've no reverence
to my concern...
So I'll be sure
to stay wary of you, love
To save the pain of
Once my flame
and twice my burn.
To Your Love
I would've warned you,
but really, what's the point?
Caution could
but rarely
ever helps...
Don't be down
when my demeanor
tends
to disappoint.
It's hard enough
even trying to be civil
to myself.
Love Ridden
Love ridden, I've looked at you
With the focus I gave
to my birthday candles.
I've wished on the lidded blue flames
Under your brow
And baby, I wished for you.
Nobody sees
when you are lying in your bed
and I wanna crawl in with you
But I cry instead.
I want your warm, but it will only
make me colder when it's over,
So I can't tonight, baby
No, not "baby" anymore -
if I need you I'll just use your simple name.
Only kisses on the cheek from now on
And in a little while, we'll only have to wave...
Fast as You Can
Sometimes my mind don't shake and shift
But most of the time, it does --
And I get to the place where I'm begging for a lift
Or I'll drown in the wonders and the was...

and maybe we'll get lucky and we'll both live again
well i dont know, i dont know, i dont know, dont think so
well that is that and this is this
you tell me what you want and i'll tell you what u get
you get away from me, you get away from me
collected my belongings and i left the jail
well thanks for the time i needed to think a spell i had to think awhile i had to think awhile
The Ocean Breathes Salty wont you carry it in, in your head, in your mouth, in your soul
and maybe we'll get lucky and we'll both grow old
well i dont i know, i dont know, i dont know, i hope so
well that is that and this is this

you get away from me, you get away from me
collected my belongings and i left the jail
well thanks for the time i needed to think a spell i had to think awhile i had to think awhile
well that is that and this is this
you tell me what you saw and i'll tell you what you missed
when the ocean met the sky you missed you missed
you missed when time and life shook hands and said goodbye
when the earth folded in on itself and said
good luck!!!
for your sake i hope heaven and hell...are really there but i wouldnt hold my breath
you wasted life why wouldnt you waste death, you wasted life why wouldnt you waste death
The Ocean Breathes Salty wont you carry it in, in your head, in your mouth, in your soul
the more we move ahead the more we're stuck in rewind
well i dont mind, i dont mind, how the hell could i mind
well that is that and this is this
you tell me what you want and i'll tell you what u get
you get away from me, you get away from me
well that is that and this is this
you tell me what you saw and i'll tell you what you missed
YOU WASTED LIFE WHY WOULDN'T YOU WASTE THE AFTERLIFE

In a pigs cunt you will, get your hump over that hill
and fix me some chicken woman, fetch me some fryin' hens.
Give me a pie, some smokes, a bag of dope, and a 6 pack of beer.
We're All The Way - Don Williams
There are times that I don’t see the light
and I don’t know if what I do is right
when I’m wrong it’s never meant for you
so don’t confuse my love with what I do.
So don’t put words between us we shouldn’t say, don’t be acting half way, when you know we’re all the way

Elliot Smith, Rose Parade
They asked me to come down and watch the parade
And to march down the street like the duracell bunny
With a wink and a wave from the cavalcade
Throwing out candy that looks like money
To people passing by that all seem to be going the other way
Said wont you follow me down to the rose parade?
Tripped over a dog in a choke-chain collar
People were shouting and pushing and saying
Traded a smoke for a food stamp dollar
A ridiculous marching band started playing
And got me singing along with some half-hearted victory song
Wont you follow me down to the rose parade?
Wont you follow me down to the rose parade?
Wont you follow me down to the rose parade?
The trumpet has obviously been drinking
Because hes fucking up even the simplest lines
Id say its a sight thats quite worth seeing
Its just that everyones interest is stronger than mine
And when they clean the street Ill be the only shit thats left behind
Wont you follow me down to the rose parade?
Wont you follow me down to the rose parade?
Wont you follow me down to the rose parade?

In My Life - Beatles
I wanted to use this song for our wedding, but my husband's sister called dibs on them (her wedding was to be shortly after ours)...then she fucking didn't get married....Ugh!!
It fit my husband's and my life way better than hers...Oh I am still mad...nine years later.
There are places i'll remember
All my life though some have changed
Some forever not for better
Some have gone and some remain
All these places have their moments
With lovers and friends i still can recall
Some are dead and some are living
In my life i've loved them all
But of all these friends and lovers
There is no one compares with you
And these memories lose their meaning
When i think of love as something new
Though i know i'll never lose affection
For people and things that went before
I know i'll often stop and think about them
In my life i love you more
Though i know i'll never lose affection
For people and things that went before
I know i'll often stop and think about them
In my life i love you more
In my life i love you more

Take all the money in the bank.

Ain't no woman gonna change the way I think.

"Funland At The Beach"
Sunny Sunday at the amusement park
See the fat kids spill their pop
Oh babe-lots of flags and balloons
But someone sabotaged the rollercoaster last night
Ran a turn and then it smashed right down
Thru the crowded haunted house below
Oh No
Human hamburger No
And it's Crushed little Kids
Crushed little Kids
Crushed little Kids
Adorn the boardwalk
See the tourists drop their jaws and cones
See the owners smell a big lawsuit
Oh Police! (call your lawyer first)
Make the witnesses go home
And they'll turn on the TV
And see the crushed little kids
Adorn the boardwalk

More Elliot Smith, in a song that makes being a tweaker alcoholic sound almost heroic:
St. Ides Heaven
Everything is exactly right
When I walk around here drunk every night
With an open container from 7-11
In St. Ides Heaven
I've been out haunting the neighborhood
And everybody can see I'm no good
When I'm walking out between parked cars
With my head full of stars
High on amphetamines
The moon is a lightbulb breaking
It'll go around with anyone
But it won't come down for anyone
You think you know what brings me down
That I want those things you could never allow
You see me smiling, you think it's a frown
Turned upside down
Because everyone is a fucking pro
And they all got answers from trouble they've known
And they all got to say what you should and shouldn't do
Though they don't have a clue
High on amphetamines
The moon is a lightbulb breaking
It'll go around with anyone
But it won't come down for anyone
And I won't come down for anyone

1. send an instant karma to me initial it with love and care
2. keep on rockin' in the free world
3. Words are flying out like
endless rain into a paper cup
They slither while they pass
They slip away across the universe
Pools of sorrow waves of joy
are drifting thorough my open mind
Possessing and caressing me
Jai guru deva om
Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world
Images of broken light which
dance before me like a million eyes
That call me on and on across the universe
Thoughts meander like a
restless wind inside a letter box
they tumble blindly as
they make their way across the universe
Jai guru deva om
Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world
Sounds of laughter shades of life
are ringing through my open ears
exciting and inviting me
Limitless undying love which
shines around me like a million suns
It calls me on and on across the universe

4. There's nothing 'round here I believe in
'Cept you, yeah you
And there's nothing to me that's sacred
'Cept you, yeah you
You're the one that reaches me
You're the one that I admire
Every time we meet together
My soul feels like it's on fire
Nothing matters to me
And there's nothing I desire
'Cept you, yeah you
Nothing 'round here I care to try for
'Cept you, yeah you
Got nothing left to live or die for
'Cept you, yeah you
There's a hymn I used to hear
In the churches all the time
Make me feel so good inside
So peaceful, so sublime
And there's nothing to remind me of that
Old familiar chime
'Cept you, uh huh you
Used to play in the cemetery
Dance and sing and run when I was a child
Never seemed strange
But now I just pass mournfully by
That place where the bones of life are piled
I know somethin' has changed
I'm a stranger here and no one sees me
'Cept you, yeah you
Nothing much matters or seems to please me
'Cept you, yeah you
Nothing hypnotizes me
Or holds me in a spell
Everything runs by me
Just like water from a well
Everybody wants my attention
Ev'rybody's got something to sell
'Cept you, yeah you

It gets so sticky down here
Better butter your cue-finger up
It's the start of another new year
Better call the newspaper up
2.50 for a hi-ball,
And buck and a half for a beer
Happy hour, happy hour
Happy hour is here
The long days of Shockley are gone
So is football Kennedy style
Famous last words taken all wrong
Wind up on the very same pile
2.50 for a decade
And a buck and a half for a year
Happy hour, happy hour
Happy hour is here
I can cry, beg and whine
T'every Rebel I find
Just to give me a line
I could use to describe
They'd say, "Baby eat this chicken slow
it's full of all them little bones"
So regal and decadent here
Coffin cheaters dance on their graves
Music, all it's delicate fear
Is the only thing that don't change
2.50 for and eyeball
And a buck and a half for an ear
Happy hour, happy hour
Happy hour is here
Nothing's dead down here, just a little tired
They'd say, "Baby eat this chicken slow
It's full of all them little bones

She doesn't believe what she hears at all

"Riot"
Rioting-the unbeatable high
Adrenalin shoots your nerves to the sky
Everyone knows this town is gonna blow
And it's all gonna blow right now:.
Now you can smash all the windows that you want
All you really need are some friends and a rock
Throwing a brick never felt so damn good
Smash more glass
Scream with a laugh
And wallow with the crowds
Watch them kicking peoples' ass
But you get to the place
Where the real slavedrivers live
It's walled off by the riot squad
Aiming guns right at your head
So you turn right around
And play right into their hands
And set your own neighbourhood
Burning to the ground instead
[Chorus]
Riot-the unbeatable high
Riot-shoots your nerves to the sky
Riot-playing into their hands
Tomorrow you're homeless
Tonight it's a blast
Get your kicks in quick
They're callin' the national guard
Now could be your only chance
To torch a police car
Climb the roof, kick the siren in
And jump and yelp for joy
Quickly-dive back in the crowd
Slip away, now don't get caught
Let's loot the spiffy hi-fi store
Grab as much as you can hold
Pray your full arms don't fall off
Here comes the owner with a gun
[Chorus]
The barricades spring up from nowhere
Cops in helmets line the lines
Shotguns prod into your bellies
The trigger fingers want an excuse
Now
The raging mob has lost its nerve
There's more of us but who goes first
No one dares to cross the line
The cops know that they've won
It's all over but not quite
The pigs have just begun to fight
They club your heads, kick your teeth
Police can riot all that they please
[Chorus]
Tomorrow you're homeless
Tonight it's a blast

20 Minutes/40 Years
Tendrils escape
From the glaring - blackness
They slither and slide through the ones and zeros
Prophecy of collapse unfolds
Last grains of sand spiral down the hole
Chance has graced me with a gift
Grasp and pull me from the dark decent
Sun beats down in painted waves
In this time of anything
I should -- prepare
For this journey - I'm unprepared
I walk on
save me now
seek the life
I see the light
Walk on
Take the other way
I wish to say
treading water’s edge
avalanche
pressed against the ground
I will not hide
cleansing all of our souls with pain
Pools of white burning hearts

Hello
I really mad about this song from Darius. Just read carefully and decide it.
"Feeling blue, while I'm trying to forget the feeling that I miss you
Feeling green, when the jealousy swells and it won't go away in dreams
Feeling yellow, I'm confused inside
A little hazy but mellow when I feel your eyes on me
Feeling fine! Sublime!
When that smile of yours creeps into my mind
Oh oh
Nobody told me you'd feel so good
Nobody said you'd be so beautiful
Nobody warned me about your smile
You're the light, you're the light
When I close my eyes
I'm color blind
You make me color blind
Feeling red, when you spend all your time with your friends and not me instead
Feeling black, when I think about all the things that I feel I lack
Feeling jaded, when it's not gone right
All the colors have faded, then I feel your eyes on me
Feeling fine! Sublime!
When that smile of yours creeps into my mind"

I'll preface this with a breath of whiskey and thoughts of a girl "that got away"
I don’t need from you a waterfall of careless praise
And I don’t need a trophy for all the games I played
But all I want is your eyes
In the morning as we wake for a short while
And I don’t need you to catch my wandering mind
And I don’t expect a southern girl to know the northern lights
And all I want is your eyes
In the morning as we wake for a short while
And I do need the wind across my pale face
And I do need the ferns to unfurl in the spring
And I do need the grass to sway,
yes I do need to know my place
yet all I want is your eyes
in the morning as we wake for a short while
This is the Bowerbirds, off the new one; the song Northern Lights

You are always thinking
Brain is wide, the brain is deep
Oh, are you sinking?
Feel the path of every day
Which road you taking?
Breathing hard, making hay
Yeah, this is living
Look for love in evidence
That you're worth keeping
Swallowed whole in negatives
It's so sad and sickening
Feel the air up above
Oh, pool of blue sky
Fill the air up with love
All black with starlight
Feel the sky blanket you
With gems and rhinestones!!!
See the path cut by the moon
For you to walk on
For you to walk on...
Nothing left, nothing left
Nothing there, nothing here...
Nothing left, nothing left
Nothing there, nothing left...
Nothing left, nothing left
Nothing there, nothing here...
See the path cut by the moon
For you to walk on
See the waves on distant shores
Awaiting your arrival
Dream the dreams of other men
You'll be no one's rival
Dream the dreams of others then
You will be no one's rival
You will be no one's rival...
A distant time, a distant space
That's where we're living
A distant time, a distant place
So what ya giving?

And the sun begins to shine
I see my freedom from across the way
And it comes right in on time
Well it shines so bright and it gives so much light
And it comes from the sky above
Makes me feel so free makes me feel like me
And lights my life with love
And it seems like and it feels like
And it seems like yes it feels like
A brand new day, yeah
A brand new day oh
I was lost and double crossed
With my hands behind my back
I was longtime hurt and thrown in the dirt
Shoved out on the railroad track
Ive been used, abused and so confused
And I had nowhere to run
But I stood and looked
And my eyes got hooked
On that beautiful morning sun
And the sun shines down all on the ground
Yeah and the grass is oh so green
And my heart is still and Ive got the will
And I dont really feel so mean
Here it comes, here it comes
0 here it comes right now
And it comes right in on time
Well it eases me and it pleases me
And it satisfies my mind

my innocence has all but faded
oh, this mess i have made
and i don't believe in god

all alone as i've learned to be
in this mess i have made
all the untested virtue
the things i said i'd never do
least of all to you
i know he's kind and true
i know that he is good to you
he'll never care for you more than i do
but i don't believe in love
and i can't be changed
all alone as i've learned to be
in this mess
i have made the same mistakes
over and over again
there are rooms in this house that i don't open anymore
dusty books of pictures on the floor
that she will never see
she'll never see that part of me
i want to be for her
what i could never be for you
but i don't believe in god

Ghost in This House by Alison Krauss
I don't pick up the mail
I don't pick up the phone
I don't answer the door
I'd just as soon be alone
I don't keep this place up
I just keep the lights down
I don't live in these rooms
I just rattle around
I'm just a ghost in this house
I'm just a shadow upon these walls
As quietly as a mouse I haunt these halls
I'm just a whisper of smoke
I'm all that's left of two hearts on fire
That once burned out of control
You took my body and soul
I'm just a ghost in this house
I don't care if it rains
I don't care if it's clear
I don't mind stayin' in
There's another ghost here
He sits down in your chair
And he shines with your light
And he lays down his head
On your pillow at night
I'm just a ghost in this house
I'm just a shadow upon these walls
I'm living proof of the damage that heartbreak does
I'm just a whisper of smoke
I'm all that's left of two hearts on fire
That once burned out of control
And took my body and soul
I'm just a ghost in this house
Oh, I'm just a ghost in this house

Who can crack my ribs and repair this broken heart
That you're deserting for better company?
I can't accept that it's over...
And I will block the door like a goalie tending the net
In the third quarter of a tied-game rivalry
So just say how to make it right
And i swear I'll do my best to comply
Tell me am i right to think that there could be nothing better
Than making you my bride and slowly growing old together
(girl)
I feel I must interject here you're getting carried away feeling sorry for yourself
With these revisions and gaps in history
So let me help you remember.
I've made charts and graphs that should finally make it clear.
I've prepared a lecture on why i have to leave
So please back away and let me go
(guy)
I can't my darling i love you so...
(both)
Oh, oh
(guy)
Tell me am i right to think that there could be nothing better
Than making you my bride and slowly growing old together

Don't you feed me lines about some idealistic future
Your heart won't heal right if you keep tearing out the sutures

I know that I have made mistakes and i swear
I'll never wrong you again

You've got a lure i can't deny,
But you've had your chance so say goodbye
Say goodbye

And the young, they can lose hope cause they cant see beyond today,...
The wisdom that the old cant give away
Hey,...
Constant recoil...
Sometimes life
Dont leave you alone.
Hold me, and make it the truth,...
That when all is lost there will be you.
Cause to the universe I dont mean a thing
And theres just one word that I still believe and its
Love,... love. love. love. love.
and also
The north is to south what the clock is to time.
Theres east and theres west and there everywhere life.
I know that I was born and I know that Ill die.
The in between is mine. I am mine.

Can't a man not control his bitch with violence?

Know a man, his face seems pulled and tense
Like hes riding on a motorbike in the strongest winds
So I approach with tact, suggest that he should relax
But hes always moving much too fast
Said hell see me on the flipside
On this trip hes taken for a ride
Hes been taking too much on ...
There he goes with his perfectly unkept clothes
There he goes...
Hes yet to come back, but I see his picture
Doesnt look the same up on the rack
We go way back
I wonder about his insides
Its like his thoughts are too big for his size
Hes been taken, where, I dont know?
Off he goes with his perfectly unkept clothes
And there he goes...
And now I rub my eyes, for he has returned!
Seems my preconceptions are what should have been burned
For he still smiles, and hes still strong
Nothings changed, but the surrounding bullshit
That has grown
And now hes home, and were laughing like we always did
My same old, same old friend
Until a quarter-to-ten
I saw the strain creep in
He seemed distracted and I know just what is gonna happen next
Before his first step, hes off again

Beth Neilsen Chapman.....the song is unbearably sad
All alone I didn't like the feeling
All alone I sat and cried
All alone I had to find some meaning
In the center of the pain I felt inside
All alone I came into this world
All alone I will someday die
Solid stone is just sand and water, baby
Sand and water, and a million years gone by
I will see you in the light of a thousand suns
I will hear you in the sound of the waves
I will know you when I come, as we all will come
Through the doors beyond the grave
All alone I heal this heart of sorrow
All alone I raise this child
Flesh and bone, he's just
Bursting towards tomorrow
And his laughter fills my world and wears your smile
I will see you in the light of a thousand suns
I will hear you in the sound of the waves
I will know you when I come, as we all will come
Through the doors beyond the grave
All alone I came into this world
All alone I will someday die
Solid stone is just sand and water, baby
Sand and water and a million years gone by

It's like that and it's like this
I took her to tha pad and we started tah kiss
Now my dick's on hard ya know what I'm thinkin'
Took tha panties off and the pussy wasn't stinkin'
Pulled off my draws and we started to begin
Now tha pussy's wet so my dick slides in
Oh, hiddy hiddy hiddy you hoe
Ridin' from the back so I'm fuckin' kinda slow
So fee fie foe fuck fum
She's scratchin' on my back oh here she comes
Now I gotta get a nutt gotta get a nutt gotta get it quick
Ya know because I love this shit so
Chorus:
Gimmee that, that, that nutt [3x]
Gimmee that, Gimmee that, Gimmee that nutt
Verse Two:
Okay back back to the fuckin' basics
You got yours and mine ya want tah taste it
Open wide oh no don't 'cha waste it
Oh shit all over ya face kid
Ya know ya know one thing
You know me I like to slang
That dick you know what so roll over girl while I stick it in ya
But I'll turn it wild while I'm ridin' that ass scream and shout
My name is the same
Just another pussy that I had tah tame soooooooo

-Chorus-[2x]
Verse Three:
Now I love pussy (love pussy)
And pussy loves me (pussy loves me)
Like a lemon to the lime and the bubble to the bee
Ya know its real good a nigga can't resist it (it's real good)
Couldn't be a foot loop (can't be a fag) so don't get me twisted
'Cuz in some pussy is the place tah be
Always fuckin' is the life for me
Spread them legs open far and wide
Fuck this shit just let me put my dick inside soooooooo
-Chorus-[2x]
uh, get it on baby

I'm crazy for you
Touch me once and you'll know it's true
I never wanted anyone like this
It's all brand new, you'll feel it in my kiss
I'm crazy for you, crazy for you

Sometimes I get the feelin'
I was back in the old days - long ago
When we were kids when we were young
Things seemed so perfect - you know
The days were endless we were crazy we were young
The sun was always shinin' - we just lived for fun
Sometimes it seems like lately - I just don't know
The rest of my life's been just a show
Those were the days of our lives
The bad things in life were so few
Those days are all gone now but one thing is true
When I look and I find I still love you
You can't turn back the clock you can't turn back the tide
Ain't that a shame
I'd like to go back one time on a roller coaster ride
When life was just a game
No use in sitting and thinkin' on what you did
When you can lay back and enjoy it through your kids
Sometimes it seems like lately - I just don't know
Better sit back and go with the flow
Cos these are the days of our lives
They've flown in the swiftness of time
These days are all gone now but some things remain
When I look and I find no change
Those were the days of our lives - yeah
The bad things in life were so few
Those days are all gone now but one thing's still true
When I look and I find
I still love you
I still love you
