[UNcoorDINATED]

I'm in to rap, so bear with me on whether these are the right words, since the words go by fast.

By Myself: Linkin Park


What do I do to ignore them behind me?
Do I follow my instincts blindly?
Do I hide my pride / from these bad dreams
And give in to sad thoughts that are maddening?
Do I / sit here and try to stand it?
Or do I / try to catch them red – handed?
Do I trust some and get fooled by phoniness,
Or do I trust nobody and live in loneliness?
Because I can’t hold on / when I’m stretched so thin
I make the right moves but I’m lost within
I put on my daily façade but then
I just end up getting hurt again
By myself [myself]
I ask why, but in my mind
I find I can’t rely on myself

I can’t hold on
To what I want when I’m stretched so thin
It’s all too much to take in
I can’t hold on
To anything watching everything spin
With thoughts of failure sinking in

If I
Turn my back I’m defenseless
And to go blindly seems senseless
If I hide my pride and let it all go on / then they’ll
Take from me ‘till everything is gone
If I let them go I’ll be outdone
But if I try to catch them I’ll be outrun
If I’m killed by the questions like a cancer
Then I’ll be buried in the silence of the answer


How do you think / I’ve lost so much
I’m so afraid / I’m out of touch
How do you expect / I will know what to do
When all I know / Is what you tell me to
Don’t you know
I can’t tell you how to make it go
No matter what I do, how hard I try
I can’t seem to convince myself why
I’m stuck on the outside

[b]In The End: Linkin Park
It starts with one thing
I don't know why
It doesn't even matter how hard you try
keep that in mind
I designed this rhyme
To explain in due time
All I know
Time is a valuable thing
Watch it fly by as the pendulum swings
Watch it count down to the end of the day
The clock ticks life away
It's so unreal
Didn't look out below
Watch the time go right out the window
Trying to hold on, but didn't even know
Wasted it all just to watch you go
I kept everything inside and even though I tried, it all fell apart
What it meant to me will eventually be a memory of a time when

I tried so hard
And got so far
But in the end
It doesn't even matter
I had to fall
To lose it all
But in the end
It doesn't even matter

One thing, I don't know why
It doesn't even matter how hard you try
keep that in mind
I designed this rhyme, to remind myself how
I tried so hard
In spite of the way you were mocking me
Acting like I was part of your property
Remembering all the times you fought with me
I'm surprised it got so (far)
Things aren't the way they were before
You wouldn't even recognize me anymore
Not that you knew me back then
But it all comes back to me (in the end)
You kept everything inside and even though I tried, it all fell apart
What it meant to me will eventually be a memory of a time when I

Chorus

I've put my trust in you
Pushed as far as I can go
And for all this
There's only one thing you should know


Extreme Days: Dc Talk
Comin' at ya like a whirlwind
A hundred miles an hour's where we'll begin
I spy the eye of apprehension
Show me risk and you'll get my attention

Come on, can you take it
Bang to the bip; I make ya wanna flip
Take my trip and you can bust your lip

I never fear 'cause I live fearless
Don't even think for a second you can get with this

Come on, I never fake it, come on
These are extreme, extreme days
We're livin' in extreme days
These are extreme, extreme days
We're livin' in extreme days

I'm a freak from the birds of the chocolate city
Luther Jackson was my middle
Pine Ridge my elementary
School of hip hop 1979
And Sugar Hill had the skills that taught me to rhyme

Got hip to Kiss and I tripped on Zeppelin
So Mr. Therapist-Why did I go this direction
God had a plan to end all my schemes
I had a dream He said to be...extreme

Come on, I never fake it, come on
These are extreme, extreme days
We're livin' in extreme days
These are extreme, extreme days
We're livin' in extreme days


Just the other day I saw a kid
Who flipped his hat to the back and he called it a lid
You know what else he did?
He stacked books from the floor to ceiling
Said somethin' bout trying to get to heaven
He was only eleven
So he climbed to the top with outstretched arms
And he screamed at the top of his lungs

Move out of my way
Give up the mic
X to me is extremely Christ
Livin up in me
Like it or not
Put an X on my chest
Cuz X marks the spot

Youth of A Nation: POD
Last day of the rest of my life
I wish I would’ve known
Cause I didn’t kiss my mama goodbye

I didn’t tell her that I loved her and how much I care
Or thank my pops for all the talks
And all the wisdom he shared

Unaware, I just did what I always do
Everyday, the same routine
Before I skate off to school

But who knew that this day wasn’t like the rest
Instead of taking a test
I took two to the chest

Call me blind, but I didn’t see it coming
Everybody was running
But I couldn’t hear nothing

Except gun blasts, it happened so fast
I don’t really know this kid
Even though I sit by him in class

Maybe this kid was reaching out for love
Or maybe for a moment
He forgot who he was
Or maybe this kid just wanted to be hugged
Whatever it was
I know it’s because

We are, We are, the youth of the nation
We are, We are, the youth of the nation
We are, We are, the youth of the nation
We are, We are, the youth of the nation

Little Suzy, she was only twelve
She was given the world
With every chance to excel

Hang with the boys and hear the stories they tell
She might act kind of proud
But no respect for herself

She finds love in all the wrong places
The same situations
Just different faces

Changed up her pace since her daddy left her
Too bad he never told her
She deserved much better

Johnny boy always played the fool
He broke all the rules
So you would think he was cool

He was never really one of the guys
No matter how hard he tried
Often thought of suicide

It’s kind of hard when you ain’t got no friends
He put his life to an end
They might remember him then

You cross the line and there’s no turning back
Told the world how he felt
With the sound of a gat

We are, We are, the youth of the nation
We are, We are, the youth of the nation
We are, We are, the youth of the nation
We are, We are, the youth of the nation

Who’s to blame for the lives that tragedies claim
No matter what you say
It don’t take away the pain

That I feel inside, I’m tired of all the lies
Don’t nobody know why
It’s the blind leading the blind

I guess that’s the way the story goes
Will it ever make sense
Somebody’s got to know

There’s got to be more to life than this
There’s got to be more to everything
I thought exists

We are, We are, the youth of the nation
We are, We are, the youth of the nation
We are, We are, the youth of the nation
We are, We are, the youth of the nation
We are, We are, the youth of the nation
We are, We are, the youth of the nation
We are, We are, the youth of the nation
We are, We are, the youth of the nation

Well, I'll think of a few more later. Adios.

-Percy Sledge-

When a man loves a woman, can't keep his mind on nothing else
He'll trade the world for the good thing he's found
If she's bad he can't see it she can do no wrong
Turn his back on his best friend if he put her down

When a man loves a woman, spend his very last dime
Tryin' to hold on to what he needs
He'd give up all his comfort, sleep out in the rain
If she said that's the way it ought to be

Well, this man loves a woman
I gave you everything I had
Tryin' to hold on to your precious love
Baby, please don't treat me bad

When a man loves a woman, down deep in his soul
She can bring him such misery
If she plays him for a fool, he's the last one to know
Lovin' eyes don't ever see

Well, this man loves a woman
I gave you everything I had
Tryin' to hold on to your precious love
Baby, please don't treat me bad

When a man loves a woman, I know exactly how he feels
Coz baby baby baby you're my world

John Lennon - Watching the Wheels

People say I'm crazy doing what I'm doing
Well they give me all kinds of warnings to save me from ruin
When I say that I'm o.k. well they look at me kind of strange
Surely you're not happy now you no longer play the game

People say I'm lazy dreaming my life away
Well they give me all kinds of advice designed to enlighten me
When I tell them that I'm doing fine watching shadows on the wall
Don't you miss the big time boy you're no longer on the ball

I'm just sitting here watching the wheels go round and round
I really love to watch them roll
No longer riding on the merry-go-round
I just had to let it go

Ah, people asking questions lost in confusion
Well I tell them there's no problem, only solutions
Well they shake their heads and they look at me as if I've lost my mind
I tell them there's no hurry
I'm just sitting here doing time

I'm just sitting here watching the wheels go round and round
I really love to watch them roll
No longer riding on the merry-go-round
I just had to let it go
I just had to let it go
I just had to let it go


Nine Inch Nails - Underneath it All

All i do
I can still feel you
All i do
I can still feel you
All i do
I can still feel you
All i do
I can still feel you
All i do
I can still feel you
Numb all through
I can still feel you
Hear your call
Underneath it all
Kill my brain
Yet you still remain

Crucified
After all i've died
After all i've tried
You are still inside

All i do
I can still feel you
All i do
I can still feel you
All i do
I can still feel you
All i do
I can still feel you

All i do
I can still feel you
All i do (You remain)
I can still feel you (I am stained)


Pink Floyd - Brain Damage and Eclipse

The lunatic is on the grass.
The lunatic is on the grass.
Remembering games and daisy chains and laughs.
Got to keep the loonies on the path.

The lunatic is in the hall.
The lunatics are in my hall.
The paper holds their folded faces to the floor
And every day the paper boy brings more.

And if the dam breaks open many years too soon
And if there is no room upon the hill
And if your head explodes with dark forebodings too
I'll see you on the dark side of the moon.

The lunatic is in my head.
The lunatic is in my head
You raise the blade, you make the change
You re-arrange me 'till I'm sane.

You lock the door
And throw away the key
There's someone in my head but it's not me.
And if the cloud bursts, thunder in your ear
You shout and no one seems to hear.
And if the band you're in starts playing different tunes
I'll see you on the dark side of the moon.


All that you touch
All that you see
All that you taste
All you feel.
All that you love
All that you hate
All you distrust
All you save.
All that you give
All that you deal
All that you buy,
beg, borrow or steal.
All you create
All you destroy
All that you do
All that you say.
All that you eat
everyone you meet
All that you slight
everyone you fight.
All that is now
All that is gone
All that's to come
and everything under the sun is in tune
but the sun is eclipsed by the moon.

The Brides Have Hit Glass- Guided By Voices

I don't come around
Never call or let her know
I got a life of my own
You know I hate to be around her
When she's like that
I wrote a song once about her
Called "The Brides Have Hit Glass"
You know it just won't last
To be on top of your own world
With no guardrails to cling to
You fall so very fast
It's very odd to find her up again
Staking out expansion
Seeking new exposure

And when she holds out an empty glass
And she comes for a handout
I ask for the same thing-it's sad
And I hold on so sure I can take all she can
Just to be around her
Just to feel bad

One day I will know
That's it's a waste of time
And there's a better road ahead of me
I just don't know how to make it there
So I'll just hang around and take my chance
Once again I'll roll the dice
And try to hang on to my shrinking paradise

And I'll hold out an empty glass
And I'll come for a handout
And I'll ask for the same thing-it's sad
And I'll hold on so confident
That's it all I can give
To try to find my way back
Just to hit glass


Sound Of Silence- Simon & Garfunkel

Hello darkness, my old friend
I've come to talk with you again
Because a vision softly creeping
Left its seeds while I was sleeping
And the vision that was planted in my brain
Still remains
Within the sound of silence

In restless dreams I walked alone
Narrow streets of cobblestone
Beneath the halo of a street lamp
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light
That split the night
And touched the sound of silence

And in the naked light I saw
Ten thousand people maybe more
People talking without speaking
People hearing without listening
People writing songs that voices never shared
No one dared
Disturb the sound of silence

"Fools," said I, "You do not know
Silence like a cancer grows
Hear my words that I might teach you
Take my arms that I might reach you"
But my words like silent raindrops fell
And echoed in the wells of silence

And the people bowed and prayed
To the neon god they'd made
And the sign flashed out its warning
In the words that it was forming
And the sign said
"The words of the prophets are
Written on the subway walls
And tenement halls
And whispered in the sounds of silence"

I like these songs. The first one reminds me of a girl I once knew. The second one reminds me of all the strangers that pass through my life, and how often I've felt like a stranger myself.

[TyRoss]

Ok here's a couple.


I Turn to You - Christina Aguilera: I've always thought this was a beautiful song and it is the song me and gisland used for our first dance at our wedding (although gis isn't a huge Aguilera fan thats just me). It will always be special to me.

When I'm lost
In the rain
In your eyes I know I'll find the light
To light my way
If I'm still
Losing ground
When my world is going crazy
You can turn it all around
And when I'm down you're there
Pushing me to the top
You're always there giving me all you've got

For a shield
From the storm
For a friend
For a love to keep me safe and warm
I turn to you
For the strength
To be strong
For the will to carry on
For everything you do
For everythiing thats true
I turn to you

When I lose
The will to win
I just reach for you and
I can reach the sky again
I can do
Anything
Cause your love is so amazing
Cause your love inspires me
And when I need a friend
You're always on my side
Giving me faith
Taking me through the night

For a shield
From the storm
For a friend
For a love to keep me safe and warm
I turn to you
For the strength
To be strong
For the will to carry on
For everything you do
For everythiing thats true
I turn to you

For the arms to be my shelter through all the rain
For truth that will never change
For someone to lean on
For a heart I can rely on through anything
For the one who
I can run to

Through the years (note held while chosrus repeats)

For a shield
From the storm
For a friend
For a love to keep me safe and warm

(So keep me safe and warm)

I turn to you
For the strength
To be strong
For the will to carry on
For everything you do
For everythiing thats true

For everything you do
For everything thats true
I turn to you


The Prophets song - Queen: I love this song and it's visions of holocaust. I used it a lot in high school for everything from essays to monologues. Even thought of writing a play based on it.

Oh, oh people of the Earth
Listen to the warning
The seer he said
Beware the storm that gathers here
Listen to the wise man

I dreamed I saw on a moonlit stair
Spreading his hands on the multitude there
A man who cried for a love gone stale
And ice cold hearts of charity bare
I watched as fear took the old men's gaze
Hopes of the young in troubled graves
I see no day, I heard him say
So grey is the face of every mortal

Oh, oh people of the Earth
Listen to the warning
The prophet he said
For soon the cold of night will fall
Summoned by your own hand

Oh, oh children of the land
Quicken to the ne wlife
Take my hand
Fly and find the new green bough
Return like the white dove

He told of death as a bone white haze
Taking the lost and the unloved babe
Late too late all the wretches run
These kings of beasts now counting their days
From mothers love is the son estranged
Married his own his precious gain
The Earh will shake in two will break
And death all around will be your dowry

Oh, oh people of the Earth
Listen to the warning the seer he said
For those who hear and mark my words
Listen to the god plan

Oh, oh Oh, oh
And two by two my human zoo
They'll be
Running for to come
Running for to come
Out of the rain

Flee for your life
Who heed me not let all your treasure make oyu
Fear for your life
Decieve you not the fires of hell will take you
Should death await you

(at this point there is an incredible accapella vocal montage of lines that lasts for about a minute and a half)

Oh, oh people can you hear me
And now I know that you can hear me
Now I know
The Earth will shake in shake in two will break
Shatter around
Now I know
Whoa
Listen to the wise man
La la la la la la
Come here
Aye you come here
Listen to the madman

(end montage)

God give you grace to purge this place
And peace all around may be your fortune

Oh, oh children of the land
Love is still the answer take my hand
The vision fades a voice I hear
"Listen to the Madman"

But still I fear I fear and still I dare
Not laugh at the Madman

[Kyle Katarn]

Sevendust -"Praise"

What did you expect?
Fools often sometimes forget
Who really knows what's the truth
Often dignified
How funny changing the tide
Feels like you already knew
(Praise) like the devil
(Connect) you would never
(Sick Man) running circles
Feels like you already knew
(Praise) like the devil
(Connect) you would never
(Sick Man) running circles
Feels like you already knew

[chourus]
Save you
I would never
Deny you
Even though your hate for me is strong

(See) I'm not what you
(Think) I'm the one who'll
(Be) what you never
Thought would be nothin' and now

(AFRAID TO OPEN UP YOUR EYES)
And now you realize

Always you lived in a dream
How would it feel if you could
See past the lies
Oblivious to all of my cries
No hope when I knew that you could

[repeat chorus]

[Kyle Katarn]

My all time favorite, Foo Fighters, "Learn to Fly!"

Run and tell all of the angels
This could take all night
Think I need a devil to help me get things right
Hook me up a new revolution
Cause this one is a lie
We sat around laughing and watched the last one die

Chorus:
I'm looking to the sky to save me
Looking for a sign of life
Looking for something to help me burn out bright
I'm looking for complication
Looking cause I'm tired of trying
Make my way back home when I learn to fly

I think I'm done nursing the patience
It can wait one night
I'd give it all away if you give me one last try
We'll live happily ever trapped if you just save my life
Run and tell the angels that everything's alright..

(Chorus)
Make my way back home when I learn to

Fly along with me, I can't quite make it alone
Try and make this life my own
Fly along with me, I can't quite make it alone
Try and make this life my own

(Chorus x2)
Make my way back home when I learn to fly
Make my way back home when I learn to fly

[TyRoss]

A couple more since I'm bored.

Never Had a Dream Come True - S Club 7: This song is great especially if you're in s mood to reflect on things.

Everybody's got something
They had to leave behind
One regret from yesterday
That just seems to grow with time
There's no use looking back or wondering
How it could be now or might've been
Oh this I know but still I can't
Find ways to let you go

I never had a dream come true
'Till the day that I found you
Even though I pretend that I've moved on
You'll always be my baby
I never found the words to say
You're the one I think about each day
And I know no matter where life takes me to
A part of me will always be
With you

Somewhere in my memory
I've lost all sense of time
And true my road can never be
'Cause yesterday is all that fills my mind
It's no use looking back or wondering
How it should be now or migh've been
Oh this I know but still I can't
Find ways to let you go


I never had a dream come true
'Till the day that I found you
Even though I pretend that I've moved on
You'll always be my baby
I never found the words to say
You're the one I think about each day
And I know no matter where life takes me to
A part of me will always be

You'll always be the dream that fills my head
Yes you will, say you will, you know you will, oh baby
You'll always be the one I know I'll never forget
There's no use looking back or wondering
Because love is a strange and funny thing
No matter how I try and try
I just can't say goodbye
No no no no


I never had a dream come true
'Till the day that I found you
Even though I pretend that I've moved on
You'll always be my baby
I never found the words to say
You're the one I think about each day
And I know no matter where life takes me to
A part of me will always be

A part of me will always be
With you


Hero - Phil Collins and David Crosby: Another great song, another sad song... you guys must really think I'm a manic deppresive by now.

It was one of those great stories
That you can't put down at night
The hero knew what he had to do
And he wasn't afraid to fight
The villain goes to jail
While the hero goes free
I wish it were that simple for me

And the reason that she loved him
Is the reason I loved him too
And he never wondered what was right or wrong
He just knew
He just knew

Shadow shapes mixed together at dawn
But by the time you catch them
Simplicitys gone
So we sort through the pieces
My friends and I
Searching through the darkness to find
The breaks in the sky

And the reason that she loved him
Was the reason I loved him too
And he never wondered what was right or wrong
He just knew
He just knew

And we wondered, yes we wondered
How do you make sense of this
When the hero kills the maiden
With his kiss
With his kiss

It was one of those great stories
That you can't put down at night
The hero knew what he had to do
And he wasn't afraid to fight
The villain goes to jail
While the hero goes free
I wish it were that simple for me
Were that simple for me

[Rogue]

"Something Happened On The Way To Heaven" by Phil Collins

We had a life, we had a love,
But you don't know what you've got 'til you lose it
Well that was then and this is now
And I want you back
How many times do I have to say I'm sorry

How can something so good go so bad
How can something so right go so wrong
I don't know, I don't have all the answers
But I want you back
How many times can I say I'm sorry

You can run, and you can hide
But I'm not leaving less you come with me
We've had our problems but I'm on your side
You're all I need, please believe in me

I only wanted someone to love
But something happened on the way to heaven
It got a hold of me and wouldn't let go
And I want you back
How many times do I have to say I'm sorry

You can run...

They say you can't take it with you
When you go
And I believe it
But taking what I've got or being
here with you, you know
I'd rather leave it

You can run...


"Always" by Bon Jovi

This romeo is bleeding
But you can't see his blood
It's nothing but some feelings
That this old dog kicked up

It's been raining since you left me
Now I'm drowning in the flood
You see I've always been a fighter
But without you I give up

Now I can't sing a love song
Like the way it's meant to be
Well, I guess I'm not that good anymore
But baby, that's just me

And I will love you, baby - Always
And I'll be there forever and a day - Always
I'll be there till the stars don't shine
Till the heavens burst and
The words don't rhyme
And I know when I die, you'll be on my mind
And I'll love you - Always

Now your pictures that you left behind
Are just memories of a different life
Some that made us laugh, some that made us cry
One that made you have to say goodbye
What I'd give to run my fingers through your hair
To touch your lips, to hold you near
When you say your prayers try to understand
I've made mistakes, I'm just a man

When he holds you close, when he pulls you near
When he says the words you've been needing to hear
I'll wish I was him 'cause those words are mine
To say to you till the end of time

Yeah, I will love you baby - Always
And I'll be there forever and a day - Always

If you told me to cry for you
I could
If you told me to die for you
I would
Take a look at my face
There's no price I won't pay
To say these words to you

Well, there ain't no luck
In these loaded dice
But baby if you give me just one more try
We can pack up our old dreams
And our old lives
We'll find a place where the sun still shines

And I will love you, baby - Always
And I'll be there forever and a day - Always
I'll be there till the stars don't shine
Till the heavens burst and
The words don't rhyme
And I know when I die, you'll be on my mind
And I'll love you - Always

[Agent_87]

You all seem to be forgetting the best Guns 'N Roses song of all time!....

Estranged

When you're talkin to yourself
And nobody's home
You can fool yourself
You came in this world alone
(Alone)

So nobody ever told you baby
How it was gonna be
So what'll happen to you baby
Guess we'll have to wait and see
ONE, TWO

Old at heart but I'm only 28
And I'm much too young
To let love break my heart
Young at heart but it's getting much too late
To find ourselves so far apart

I don't know how you're s'posed
To find me lately
An what more could tou ask from me
How could you say that I never needed you
When you took everything
Said you took everything from me

Young at heart an it gets so hard to wait
When no one I know can seem to help me now
Old at heart but I musn't hesitate
If I'm to find my own way out

Still talkin' to myself
and nobody's home
(Alone)

So nobody ever told us baby
How it was gonna be
So what'll happen to us baby
Guess we'll have to wait and see

When I find out all the reasons
Maybe I'll find another way
Find another day
With all the changing seasons of my life
Maybe I'll get it right next time
An now that you've been broken down
Got your head out of the clouds
You're back down on the ground
And you don't talk so loud
An you don't walk so proud
Any more, and what for

Well I jumped into the river
Too many times to make it home
I'm out here on my own, an drifting all alone
If it doesn't show give it time
To read between the lines
'Cause I see the storm getting closer
And the waves they get so high
Seems everything We've ever known's here
Why must it drift away and die

I'll never find anyone to replace you
Guess I'll have to make it thru, this time- Oh this time
Without you

I knew the storm was getting closer
And all my friends said I was high
But everything we've ever known's here
I never wanted it to die

[Agent_87]

...and of course this one shouldn't get forgotten either!

Civil War

"What we've got here is failure to
communicate.
Some men you just can't reach...
So, you get what we had here last week,
which is the way he wants it!
Well, he gets it!
N' I don't like it any more than you men." *

Look at your young men fighting
Look at your women crying
Look at your young men dying
The way they've always done before

Look at the hate we're breeding
Look at the fear we're feeding
Look at the lives we're leading
The way we've always done before

My hands are tied
The billions shift from side to side
And the wars go on with brainwashed pride
For the love of God and our human rights
And all these things are swept aside
By bloody hands time can't deny
And are washed away by your genocide
And history hides the lies of our civil wars


D'you wear a black armband
When they shot the man
Who said "Peace could last forever"
And in my first memories
They shot Kennedy
I went numb when I learned to see
So I never fell for Vietnam
We got the wall of D.C. to remind us all
That you can't trust freedom
When it's not in your hands
When everybody's fightin'
For their promised land

And
I don't need your civil war
It feeds the rich while it buries the poor
Your power hungry sellin' soldiers
In a human grocery store
Ain't that fresh
I don't need your civil war

Look at the shoes your filling
Look at the blood we're spilling
Look at the world we're killing
The way we've always done before
Look in the doubt we've wallowed
Look at the leaders we've followed
Look at the lies we've swallowed
And I don't want to hear no more

My hands are tied
For all I've seen has changed my mind
But still the wars go on as the years go by
With no love of God or human rights
'Cause all these dreams are swept aside
By bloody hands of the hypnotized
Who carry the cross of homicide
And history bears the scars of our civil wars


"WE PRACTICE SELECTIVE ANNIHILATION OF MAYORS AND GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS
FOR EXAMPLE TO CREATE A VACUUM
THEN WE FILL THAT VACUUM
AS POPULAR WAR ADVANCES
PEACE IS CLOSER" **

I don't need your civil war
It feeds the rich while it buries the poor
Your power hungry sellin' soldiers
In a human grocery store
Ain't that fresh
And I don't need your civil war
I don't need your civil war
I don't need your civil war
Your power hungry sellin' soldiers
In a human grocery store
Ain't that fresh
I don't need your civil war
I don't need one more war

I don't need one more war
Whaz so civil 'bout war anyway

Nothing In This World by The Kinks

Met a girl, fell in love, glad as I can be
Met a girl, fell in love, glad as I can be
But I think all the time, is she true to me?
'Cause there's nothing in this world to stop me worryin' 'bout that girl

I found out I was wrong, she was just two timing
I found out I was wrong, she just kept on lying
Now she tries to tell the truth, and I just can't believe
'Cause there's nothing in this world to stop me worryin' 'bout that girl

Tell me who can I turn to, just who can I believe?
Tried to put her out of my mind, she'll only cause me grief
I love that girl, whatever she's done, you know it hurts me deeply
'Cause there's nothing in this world to stop me worryin' 'bout that girl

I know she's been with other fellas, why does she keep on lying?
It hurts me so when she says nothing, I really feel like dying
I ache inside until I think[?], I know it's just my pride
'Cause there's nothing in this world to stop me worryin' 'bout that girl
'Cause there's nothing in this world to stop me worryin' 'bout that girl


Hurdy Gurdy Man by Donovan

Thrown like a star in my vast sleep
I'm opening my eyes to take a peep
To find that I was by the sea
Gazing with tranquility

'Twas then when the hurdy gurdy man
Came singing songs of love
Then when the hurdy gurdy man
Came singing songs of love

Hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy gurdy he sang
Hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy gurdy he sang
Hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy gurdy he sang

Histories of ages past
Unenlightened shadows cast
Down through all eternity
The crying of humanity

'Tis then when the hurdy gurdy man
Comes singing songs of love
Then when the hurdy gurdy man
Comes singing songs of love

Hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy gurdy he sang
Hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy hurdy gurd
Hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy gurdy he sang

Hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy gurdy he sang
Here comes the roly-poly man
He's singing songs of love
Roly poly, roly poly, roly poly poly he sang
Hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy gurdy he sang
Hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy gurdy he sang
Roly poly, roly poly, roly poly poly he sang

Robbie Williams - Strong

My breath smells of a thousand fags
And when I'm drunk I dance like me Dad
I've started to dress a bit like him
Early morning when I wake up
I look like kiss but without the make up
And that's a good line to take it to the bridge

And you know and you know
'Coz my life's a mess
And I'm trying to grow so before
I'm old I'll confess
You think that I'm strong you're wrong
You're wrong
I'll sing my song my song my song

My bed's full of takeaways and fantasies
Of easy lays
The pause buttons broke on my video
And is this real coz I feel fake
Oprah Winfrey Rikki Lake
Teach me things I don't need to know

And you know and you know
'Coz my life's a mess
And I'm trying to grow so before
I'm old I'll confess
You think that I'm strong you're wrong
You're wrong
I'll sing my song my song my song

If I did it all again I'd be a nun
The rain was never cold when I was young
I'm still young we're still young
Life's too short to be afraid
Step inside the sun

And you know and you know
'Cos my life's a mess
And I'm trying to grow

And you know and you know
'Cos my life's a mess
And I'm trying to grow

And you know and you know
'Cos my life's a mess
And I'm trying to grow

You think that I'm strong you're wrong
You're wrong
I'll sing my song my song

You think that I'm strong you're wrong
You're wrong
I'll sing my song my song

Life's too short to be afraid
So take a pill to numb the pain
You don't have to take the blame

Life's too short to be afraid
So take a pill to numb the pain
You don't have to take the blame

Life's too short to be afraid
So take a pill to numb the pain
You don't have to take the blame

Pearl Jam - Jeremy My song for reasons known to people who pay attention

At home drawing pictures of mountain tops with him on top.
Lemon yellow sun. Arms raised in a V.
And the dead lay in pools of maroon below.

Daddy didn't give attention, oh, to the fact that mommy didn't care.
King Jeremy the wicked, oh, ruled his world.
Jeremy spoke in class today. (x2)

Clearly how I remember picking on the boy.
Seemed a harmless little *****. Ooh, but we unleashed a lion.
Gnashed his teeth and bit the recess lady's breast.
How could I forget. And he hit me with a surprise left.
My jaw left hurting. Ooh, dropped wide open.
Just like the day, Oh, like the day I heard.

Daddy didn't give affection, no, and the boy was something mommy wouldn't wear.
King Jeremy the wicked, oh, ruled his world.
Jeremy spoke in class today. (x3)

Who? (x14)

Try to forget this. (try to forget this).
Try to erase this. (try to erase this).
From the blackboard.

Jeremy spoke in class today. (x2)
Jeremy spoke in, spoke in... (x2)
Jeremy spoke in class today.

Who? (x29)

Woohh... (spoke in, spoke in. Spoke in, spoke in.)
Woohh... (x2)
I... (x11) Yeah.
Uh huh. (x4)
Yeah.
Uh huh. (x10)

If by Pink Floyd

If I were a swan, I'd be gone.
If I were a train, I'd be late.
And if I were a good man,
I'd talk with you
More often than I do.

If I were to sleep, I could dream.
If I were afraid, I could hide.
If I go insane, please don't put
Your wires in my brain.

If I were the moon, I'd be cool.
If I were a book, I would bend for you.
If I were a good man, I'd understand
The spaces between friends.

If I were alone, I would cry.
And if I were with you, I'd be home and dry.
And if I go insane,
And they lock me away,
Will you still let me join in the game?

If I were a swan, I'd be gone.
If I were a train, I'd be late again.
If I were a good man,
I'd talk with you
More often than I do.

The Effervescing Elephant by Syd Barrett

An effervescing elephant
with tiny eyes, and great big trunk
once whispered to the tiny ears
the ears of one inferior
that by next june he'd die, oh yeah!
because the tiger would roam
and the little one said oh my goodness I must stay at home
and everytime I hear a growl
I'll know the tiger's on the prowl
and I'll be really safe you know
The elephant he told me so
And everyone was nervvy, oh yeah!
and the message was spread
to zebra, mongoose, and the dirty hippopotamus
who wollowed in the mud and chewed
his spicy hippoplancton food
and tended to ignore the word
prefering to survey a herd
of stupid water bison, oh yeah!
and the jungle took fright
and ran around for all the day and the night
but all in vain because you see
the tiger came and said to me,
"You know I wouldn't hurt not one of you
I much prefer something to chew
you're all too scant, oh yeah!"
He ate the elephant...

[SamuraiiSam]

Andy's Chest by Lou Reed

If I could be anything in the world that flew
I would be a bat and come swooping after you
And if the last time you were here, things were a bit askew
Well, you know what happens after dark
When rattlesnakes loose their skins and their hearts
And all the missionaries loose their bark
All the trees are calling after you
And all the venom snipers after you
Are all the mountains boulder after you

If I could be anything of the things in this world that bite
Instead of being a tethered ocelot on a leash
I'd rather be your kite
And be tied to the end of your string
And flying in the air, babe, at night
Because you know what they say about honey bears
When you shave off all their baby hair
You've got a hairy minded big bare bear
And all the bells are rolling out for you
And stones are all erupting out for you
And all the cheap bloodsuckers are flying after you

Yesterday, Daisy Mae end Biff were grooving down the street
And just like in a movie, her hands became her feet
Her belly button was her mouth
Which meant she tasted what she'd speak
But the funny thing is what happened to her nose
It grew until it reached all of her toes
Now, when people say her feet smell, they mean her nose
And curtains laced with diamonds, dear, for you
And kingdom's Christian sailors (soldiers), dear, for you
And melting ice cap mountains, dear, for you
And knights in flaming silver robes for you
And bats, that with a kiss turn prince for you
Swoop, swoop, oh, baby, rock, rock ...

Here's some Canadian Content for you.

The Plumb Song - Snow: This song always reminds me of lazy summer days it's a great little tune.

(intro talking)
Someone pass me that guitar
I wanna know if you can spare a few minutes of your time
You know all this trouble trippin' and jumpin' all around down the world
Heartache needs to be broken breakin' it aint easy
But we're gonna write somethin nice and smooth
Check it

(singing)
La la la, la la la la la , la la la la la la la la la la la la
(repeat twice)

As I travel down life's highways
Thinking of Days gone by
I'm a city man but my heart keeps yearning for secluded countryside
In a place where no ones a stranger
Say hello and how are you
Let the music play and in the middle of day smell the sweet morning dew

(la's twice)

There's no place that seems too far
Not on Earth or among the stars
I just close my eyes and dream if I can reach it by motor car
Sit on top of the highest mountain
Feel I can touch the sky
Then imagine I was a bird and I could spread my wings and fly

Chorus:
(with la's in background)
High, high over the moon
Round the stars and back to Earth to you
Fall, fall follow me through
Around the world and back then over the moon

As I often look to the sun
As it meets the rising shore
Seems I know this taste
An unfamiliar place
but that face I've seen before
April showers bring May flowers
So let the rain come down
Will all this end
Well that all depends
I wish my friends could see me now

(repeat chorus until fade)

The Who--Baba O'Reilly

Out here in the fields
I fight for my meals
I get my back into my living

I don’t need to fight
To prove I’m right
I don’t need to be forgiven… no, no, no

Don’t cry
Don’t raise your eye
It’s only teenage wasteland

Sally take my hand
Travel south cross land
Put out the fire and don’t look past my shoulder

The exodus is here
The happy ones are near
Let’s get together before we get much older

Teenage wasteland
It’s only teenage wasteland {2X}
They’re all wasted

[Link]

I enjoy the very deep lyrics

I have many old ones but I sure as hell am not going on a hunt..


Tenacious D-Wonderboy
High above the mucky-muck
Castle made of cloud...
There sits Wonderboy
Sitting oh-so-proudly.
Not much to say
When you're high above the mucky-muck... Yeaaauh! Yeuh!

WonderBooyeee!
What is the secret of your powers?!
WonderBoooyeeeee!
Won't you take me far away from the mucky-muck, man?

Well now it's time for me to tell you about Young Nastyman
Who is the arch-rival and nemesis of Wonderboy
With powers *comparable* to WONDERBOY!

What kind of powers? you may ask?
Oh I dunno.. how about the power of flight, that do anything for you?
How about the power of telekenesis?
The power to *move* **** with your ****in mind?!
...How about the power to move *you*?

History of Wonderboy and Young Nastyman...
Rigga Goo-goo-, Rigga Riga Goo-goo
A secret to be told
A gold chest- to be bold!
Blasting forth with three-part harmony!
Yeah!

Well Wonderboy and Young Nastyman joined forces
And they formed a band
The likes of which have never been seen in Valhalla!
And they call themselves TEnacious D
That's right-
ME!
and KG!
TenaAaaaaaaaAacious D!
Come fly with me!

Oasis - Don't Look Back in Anger

Slip inside the eye of your mind
Don't you know you might find
A better place to play

You said that you've never been (sounds like 'bean' in order to rhyme w/'seen')
But all the things that you've seen
They slowly fade away

So I'll start a revolution from my bed
'Cuz you said the brains I had went to my head
Step outside, summertime's in bloom
Stand up beside the fireplace
Take that look from off your face
You ain't ever gonna burn my heart out

And so, Sally can wait
She knows it's too late as we're walking on by
Her soul slides away
But don't look back in anger
I heard you say

Take me to the place where you go
Where nobody knows
If it's not our day

Please don't put your life in the hands
Of a rock and roll band
[And? You'll?] throw it all away

I'm gonna start a revolution from my bed
'Cuz you said the brains I had went to my head
Step outside, 'cuz summertime's in bloom
Stand up beside the fireplace
Take that look from off your face
'Cuz you ain't ever gonna burn my heart out

And so, Sally can wait
She knows it's too late as she's walking on by
My soul slides away
But don't look back in anger
I heard you say

So, Sally can wait
She knows it's too late as we're walking on by
Her soul slides away
But don't look back in anger
I heard you say

So, Sally can wait
She knows it's too late as she's walking on by
My soul slides away
But don't look back in anger
Don't look back in anger
I heard you say

At least not today.

Oasis - Stand By Me

Made a meal and threw it up on Sunday,
I've, Got a lot of things to learn,
Said I would and I believe in one day,
Before my heart starts to burn.

So whats the matter with you,
Sing me something new,
Don't you know the cold and wind and rain don't know,
They only seem to come and go, away.

Times are hard when things have got no meaning,
I've found a key upon the floor,
Maybe you and I will not believe in,
The thing we find behind the door.

So whats the matter with you,
Sing me something new,
Don't you know the cold and wind and rain don't know,
They only seem to come and go away.

Stand By Me,
Nobody knows the way it's gonna be,
Stand By Me,
Nobody knows the way it's gonna be,
Stand By Me,
Nobody knows the way it's gonna be,
Stand By Me,
Nobody knows,
Yeah nobody knows,
The way it's gonna be.

If your leaving will you take me with you,
I'm tired of talking on my phone,
There is one thing I can never give you,
My heart will never be your home,

So whats the matter with you,
Sing me something new,
Don't you know the cold and wind and rain don't know,
They only seem to come and go, away.

Stand By Me,
Nobody knows the way it's gonna be,
Stand By Me,
Nobody knows the way it's gonna be,
Stand By Me,
Nobody knows the way it's gonna be,
Stand By Me,
Nobody knows, Yeah nobody knows,
The way it's gonna be.

The way it's gonna be, yeah.
Maybe I can see, yeah,
But don't you know the cold and wind and rain don't know
They only seem to come and go, away.

Stand By Me,
Nobody knows the way it's gonna be,
Stand By Me,
Nobody knows the way it's gonna be,
Stand By Me,
Nobody knows the way it's gonna be,
Stand by me,
Nobody knows,
Yeah God only knows,
The way it's gonna be.

[Iben]

this is fun 2 of the songs I could've listed are already listed by others: Always/Bon Jovi and Don't look back in anger/Oasis.
Besides them I have:
--------------------------------------------------

You Look So Fine/ Garbage

You look so fine
I want to break your heart
And give you mine
You're taking me over

It's so insane
You've got me tethered and chained
I hear your name
And I'm falling over

I'm not like all the other girls
I can't take it like the other girls
I won't share it like the other girls
That you used to know

You look so fine

Knocked down
Cried out
Been down just to find out
I'm through living for you

I'm open wide
I want to take you home
We're wasting time
You're the only one for me

You look so fine
I'm like the desert tonight
Leave her behind
If you want to show me

I'm not like all the other girls
I won't take it like the other girls
I won't fake it like the other girls
That you used to know

You're taking me over
Over and over
I'm falling over
Over and over

Loving me one more time
Hide inside me tonight
Do what you want to do
Just pretend happy end
Let me know let it show)
-------------------------------------------------

No regrets/ Robbie Williams

Tell me a story
where we all change,
And we'd live our lives together
and not estranged,

I didn't lose my mind it was
mine to give away,
Couldn't stay to watch me cry
You didn't have the time
so I softly slip away...

No regrets / They don't work
No regrets now / They only hurt
Sing me a love song
Drop me a line
Suppose its just a point of view
but they tell me I'm doing fine

I know from the outside
we looked good for each other
Felt things were going wrong
when you didn't like my mother

I don't want to hate but that's
all you've left me with
A bitter aftertaste and a fantasy of
how we all could live

No regrets / They don't work
No regrets now / They only hurt

[We've been told you stay up late]
I know they're still talking
[You're far too short to carry weight]
The demons in your head
[Return the video's they're late]
If I could just stop hating you
[Goodbye]
I'd feel sorry for us instead
Remember the photographs (insane)
The ones where we all laugh (so lame)
We were having the time of our lives
Well thank you it was a real blast

No regrets / They don't work
No regrets / They only hurt
Write me a love song
Drop me a line
Suppose it's just a point of view
but they tell me i'm doing fine

Everything I wanted to be every time I walked away
Every time you told me to leave I just wanted to stay
Every time you looked at me and every time you smiled
I felt so vacant you treat me like a child
I loved the way we used to laugh
I loved the way we used to smile
Often I sit down and think of you for a while
Then it passes me by and I think of someone else instead
I guess the love we once had is officially death
-------------------------------------------------
Iris/ Goo goo dolls

And I'd give up forever to touch you
Cause I know that you feel me somehow
You're the closest to heaven that I'll ever be
And I don't want to go home right now

And all I can taste is this moment
And all I can breathe is your life
Cause sooner or later it's over
I just don't want to miss you tonight

And I don't want the world to see me
Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

And you can't fight the tears that ain't coming
Or the moment of truth in your lies
When everything feels like the movies
Yeah you bleed just to know you're alive

And I don't want the world to see me
Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

I don't want the world to see me
Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am

I also really love the lyrics to Queens' Bohemian Rhapsody, but it's really long and I don't feel like taking up any more

I got one for y'all...let me know if you've heard this one before.

The Scotsman / Bryan Bowers

A Scotsman clad in kilt left a bar one evening fair,
And one could tell by how he walked that he'd drunk more than his share.
He fumbled 'round until he could no longer keep his feet
Then he stumbled off into the grass to sleep beside the street.

Ring, ding, diddle-diddle i-e-o, Ring dy diddly-i-o,
He stumbled off into the grass to sleep beside the street.

Well, at this time two young and lovely girls just happened by
And one says to the other with a twinkle in her eye,
"See 'yon sleeping Scotsman, so strong and handsome-built?
I wonder if it's true what they don't wear beneath the kilt?"

Ring, ding, diddle-diddle i-e-o, Ring dy diddly-i-o,
"I wonder if it's true what they don't wear beneath the kilt?"

They crept up on that sleeping Scotsman, quiet as can be;
They lifted up his kilt about an inch so they can see,
And there, behold, for them to view beneath that scottish skirt
Was nothing more than God had graced him with upon is birth!

Ring, ding, diddle-diddle i-e-o, Ring dy diddly-i-o,
Was nothing more than God had graced him with upon is birth!

They marveled for a moment, then one said, "We must be gone;
Let's leave a present for our friend before we move along."
As a gift they left a blue silk ribbon, tied into a bow
Around the bonnie star the Scot's kilt did lift and show!

Ring, ding, diddle-diddle i-e-o, Ring dy diddly-i-o,
Around the bonnie star the Scot's kilt did lift and show!

The Scotsman woke to Nature's call and stumbled towards the trees;
Behind a bush, hee lifts his kilt and gawks at what he sees,
And in a startled voice he says to what's before his eyes,
"Lad, I don't know where ya' been, but I see ya' won first prize!"

Ring, ding, diddle-diddle i-e-o, Ring dy diddly-i-o,
"Lad, I don't know where ya' been, but I see ya' won first prize!"

[Soccerman]

I also wanted to throw this one into cyberspace and see if I get some confirmation. I downloaded a song that was labeled Aimee by Ozzy Osbourne , but I can't find confirmation of this on any website. If this looks familiar to anyone and they want the MP3 file, let me know. Thanks in advance!

Tell me what do I do about it
When you break down and cry
I try to give you all my love and affection.
Please believe me, I try

Oh, Aimee, I know I’ve been unkind
I guess I wasn’t much of a friend
Oh, Aimee, let’s leave it all behind
‘cuz I’m gonna love you, I’m gonna love you, I’m gonna love you ‘til the end.

Aimee, there’s so much you give me
So much to live for
When I’m feeling down, you just turn it around
And the pain isn’t there anymore

Oh, Aimee, I know I’ve been unkind
I guess I wasn’t much of a friend (oh yeah!)
Aimee, let’s leave it all behind
‘cuz I’ll always love you, I’ll always love you, I’ll always love you ‘til the end.

(Angel in the Night)
Come and be my angel in the night
(Angel in the Night)
Come and be my angel in the night
(Angel in the Night)
Always be my angel in the night

Don’t ever tell me lies
‘cuz I’ll always be your friend
And I’m gonna love you, I’m gonna love you, I’m gonna love you ‘til the end.

So, tell me what do I do about it
When you break down and cry
Well, I try to give you all my love and affection.
Please believe me, I try

Oh, Aimee, I know I’ve been unkind
I know I wasn’t much of a friend (oh yeah!)
Aimee, let’s leave it all behind
‘cuz I’m gonna love you, I’m gonna love you, I’m gonna love you ‘til the end.

(Angel in the Night)
Come and be my angel in the night
(Angel in the Night)
Come and be my angel in the night
(Angel in the Night)
Come and be my angel in the night
(Baby)
Will you be my angel in the night?

A D I D A S by Korn

Honestly, somehow it always seems that I'm dreamin' of something that I can never be
It doesn't bother to me, 'cause I will always be that pimp that i see
in all of my fantasies

I don't know your ****ing name.
So what, let's...

Screaming to be the only way that I can truly be free from my ****ed up realities,
so I turn and stroke it harder, 'cause its so fun to see my face staring back at me.

I don't know your ****ing name.
So what, let's ****.

Chorus
All Day I Dream About Sex
All Day I Dream About ****in'

Alive by POD

Everyday is a new day
I’m thankful for every breath I take
I won’t take it for granted
So I learn from my mistakes
It’s beyond my control, sometimes it’s best to let go
Whatever happens in this lifetime
So I trust in love
You have given me peace of mind

chorus:
I feel so alive for the very first time
I can’t deny you (I feel so alive)
I feel so alive for the very first time
And I think I can fly

Sunshine upon my face
A new song for me to sing
Tell the world how I feel inside
Even though it might cost me everything
Now that I know this, so beyond, I can’t hold this
I can never turn my back away
Now that I’ve seen you
I can never look away

chorus:
I feel so alive for the very first time
I can’t deny you (I feel so alive)
I feel so alive for the very first time
And I think I can fly

bridge:
Now that I know you (I could never turn my back away)
Now that I see you (I could never look away)
Now that I know you (I could never turn my back away)
Now that I see you (I believe no matter what they say)

chorus:
I feel so alive for the very first time
I can’t deny you (I feel so alive)
I feel so alive for the very first time
And I think I can fly
I feel so alive for the very first time
I can’t deny you (I feel so alive)
I feel so alive for the very first time
And I think I can fly

"With You" Linkin Park
I woke up in a dream today
To the cold of the static and put my cold feet on the floor
Forgot all about yesterday
Remembering I'm pretending to be where I'm not anymore
A little taste of hypocrisy
And I'm left in the wake of the mistake slow to react
Even though you're so close to me
You're still so distant
And I can't bring you back

It's true the way I feel
Was promised by your face
The sound of your voice
Painted on my memories
Even if you're not with me
I'm with you

You / Now I see / Keeping everything inside
You / Now I see / Even when I close my eyes

I hit you and you hit me back
We fall to the floor the rest of the day stands still
Fine line between this and that
When things go wrong I pretend the past isn't real
Now I'm trapped in this memory
And I'm left in the wake of the mistake slow to react
Even though you're close to me
You're still so distant
And I can't bring you back

It's true the way I feel
Was promised by your face
The sound of your voice
Painted on my memories
Even if you're not with me
I'm with you

You / Now I see / Keeping everything inside
You / Now I see / Even when I close my eyes

No, no matter how far we've come
I can't wait to see tomorrow
No, no matter how far we've come I
I can't wait to see tomorrow
With you
You / Now I see / Keeping everything inside
You / Now I see / Even when I close my eyes
You / Now I see / Keeping everything inside
You / Now I see / Even when I close my eyes

"Glycerine" Bush
Must be your skin that I'm sinking in
Must be for real cos now I can feel
And I didn't mind
It's not my kind
Not my time to wonder why
Everything's gone white
And everything's grey
Now you're here now you're away
I don't want this
Remember that
I'll never forget where you're at
Don't let the days go by
Glycerine

I'm never alone
I'm alone all the time
Are you at one
Or do you lie
We live in a wheel
Where everyone steals
But when we rise it's like strawberry fields

I treated you bad
You bruise my face
Couldn't love you more
You got a beautiful taste
Don't let the days go by
Could have been easier on you
I couldn't change though I wanted to
Could have been easier by three
Our old friend fear and you and me
Glycerine (repeat)
Don't let the days go by
Glycerine

I needed you more
When we wanted us less
I could not kiss just regress
It might just be
Clear simple and plain
That's just fine
That's just one of my names
Don't let the days go by
Could've been easier on you
Glycerine

Blaze Of Glory J. Bon Jovi

I wake up in the morning
And I raise my weary head
I've got an old coat for a pillow
And the earth was last night's bed
I don't know where I'm going
Only God knows where I've been
I'm a devil on the run
A six gun lover
A candle in the wind

When you're brought into this world
They say you're born in sin
Well at least they gave me something
I didn't have to steal or have to win
Well they tell me that I'm wanted
Yeah, I'm a wanted man
I'm a colt in your stable
I'm what Cain was to Abel
Mister catch me if you can

I'm going out in a blaze of glory
Take me now but know the truth
I'm going out in a blaze of glory
Lord I never drew first
But I drew first blood
I'm no one's son
Call me young gun

You ask about my conscience
And I offer you my soul
You ask if I'll grow to be a wise man
Well I ask if I'll grow old
You ask me if I've known love
And what it's like to sing songs in the rain
Well, I've seen love come
And I've seen it shot down
I've seen it die in vain

Shot down in a blaze of glory
Take me now but know the truth
'Cause I'm going down in a blaze of glory
Lord I never drew first
But I drew first blood
I'm the devil's son
Call me young gun

Solo

Each night I go to bed
I pray the Lord my soul to keep
No I ain't looking for forgiveness
But before I'm six foot deep
Lord, I got to ask a favor
And hope you'll understand
'Cause I've lived life to the fullest
Let this boy die like a man
Staring down a bullet
Let me make my final stand

Shot down in a blaze of glory
Take me now but know the truth
I'm going out in a blaze of glory
Lord I never drew first
But I drew first blood
And I'm no one's son
Call me young gun
I'm a young gun

[Rogue]

Bed of Roses- Bon Jovi

Sitting here wasted and wounded at
this old piano
Trying hard to capture the moment
this morning I don't know
'Cause a bottle of vodka
is still lodged in my head
And some blonde gave me nightmares
I think she's still in my bed
As I dream about movies
they won't make of me when I'm dead

With an ironclad fist I wake up and
French kiss the morning
While some marching band keeps
its own beat in my head
While we're talking
About all of the things that I long to believe
About love and the truth and
what you mean to me
And the truth is baby you're all that I need

I want to lay you on a bed of roses
For tonight I sleep on a bed on nails
I want to be just as close as the Holy Ghost is
And lay you down on bed of roses

Well I'm so far away
That each step that I take is on my way home
A king's ransom in dimes I'd given each night
Just to see through this payphone
Still I run out of time
Or it's hard to get through
Till the bird on the wire flies me back to you
I'll just close my eyes and whisper,
baby blind love is true

I want to lay you down on a bed of roses
For tonight I sleep on a bed on nails
I want to be just as close as the Holy Ghost is
And lay you down on bed of roses

The hotel bar hangover whiskey's gone dry
The barkeeper's wig's crooked
And she's giving me the eye
I might have said yeah
But I laughed so hard I think I died

When you close your eyes
Know I'll be thinking about you
While my mistress she calls me
To stand in her spotlight again
Tonight I won't be alone
But you know that don't
Mean I'm not lonely I've got nothing to prove
For it's you that I'd die to defend

I want to lay you down on a bed of roses
For tonight I sleep on a bed on nails
I want to be just as close as the Holy Ghost is
And lay you down on bed of roses

Simple Man- Lynard Skynard

Mama told me when I was young
Come sit beside me, my only son
And listen closely to what I say.
And if you do this
It will help you some sunny day.
Take your time... Don't live too fast,
Troubles will come and they will pass.
Go find a woman and you'll find love,
And don't forget son,
There is someone up above.

And be a simple kind of man.
Be something you love and understand.
Be a simple kind of man.
Won't you do this for me son,
If you can?

Forget your lust for the rich man's gold
All that you need is in your soul,
And you can do this if you try.
All that I want for you my son,
Is to be satisfied.

And be a simple kind of man.
Be something you love and understand.
Be a simple kind of man.
Won't you do this for me son,
If you can?

Boy, don't you worry... you'll find yourself.
Follow you heart and nothing else.
And you can do this if you try.
All I want for you my son,
Is to be satisfied.

And be a simple kind of man.
Be something you love and understand.
Be a simple kind of man.
Won't you do this for me son,
If you can?

I Will Love Again - Lara Fabian

Did I ever tell you how you live in me
Every waking moment, even in my dreams
And if all this talk is crazy
And you don't know what I mean
Does it really matter
Just as long as I believe

I will love again
Though my heart is breaking I will love again
Stronger than before
I will love again
Even if it takes a lifetime to get over you
Heaven only knows, I will love again

People never tell you
The way they truly feel
I would die for you gladly
If I knew it was for real
So if all this talk sounds crazy
And the words don't come out right
Does it really matter
If it gets me through this night

I will love again
Though my heart is breaking I will love again
Stronger than before
I will love again
Even if it takes a lifetime to get over you
Heaven only knows, I will love again

If I'm true to myself
Nobody else can take the place of you
But I've got to move on
Tell me what else can I do?

I will love again
Though my heart is breaking I will love again
Stronger than before
I will love again
Even if it takes a lifetime to get over you
Heaven only knows, I will love again

I will love again
One day I know, I will love again
You can't stop me from loving again,
Breathing again
Feeling again
I know, one day, I'll love again

[Iben]

Here are a couple more songs to add to my list of favourite lyrics:

When you love someone; by Bryan Adams

When you love someone
You'll do anything
You'll do all the crazy things
That you can't explain
You'll shoot the moon
Put out the sun
When you love someone

You'll deny the truth
Believe a lie
There'll be times that you'll believe
You can really fly
But your lonely nights
Have just begun
When you love someone

When you love someone
You'll feel it deep inside
And nothin' else
Can ever change your mind
When you want someone
When you need someone
When you love someone

When you love someone
You'll sacrifice
You'd give it everything you got
And you won't think twice
You'd risk it all
No matter what may come
When you love someone, hey
You'll shoot the moon
Put out the sun
When you love someone
--------------------------------------------------

Tears in heaven; by Eric Clapton

Would you know my name if I saw you in heaven?
Would it be the same if I saw you in heaven?
I must be strong and carry on,
'Cause I know I don't belong here in heaven.

Would you hold my hand if I saw you in heaven?
Would you help me stand if I saw you in heaven?
I'll find my way through night and day,
'Cause I know I just can't stay here in heaven.

Time can bring you down, time can bend your knees.
Time can break your heart, have you begging please, begging please.

Beyond the door there's peace I'm sure,
And I know there'll be no more tears in heaven

Would you know my name if I saw you in heaven?
Would it be the same if I saw you in heaven?
I must be strong and carry on,
'Cause I know I don't belong here in heaven.

[Rogue]

Blurry- Puddle of Mudd

Everything's so blurry
and everyone's so fake
and everybody's so empty
and everything is so messed up
pre-occupied without you
I cannot live at all
My whole world surrounds you
I stumble then I crawl

You could be my someone
you could be my scene
you know that I'll protect you
from all of the obscene
I wonder what your doing
imagine where you are
there's oceans in between us
but that's not very far

Can you take it all away
can you take it all away
when ya shoved it in my face
This pain you gave to me

Can you take it all away
can you take it all away
when ya shoved it my face

Everyone is changing
there's noone left that's real
to make up your own ending
and let me know just how you feel
cause I am lost without you
I cannot live at all
my whole world surrounds you
I stumble then I crawl

You could be my someone
you could be my scene
you know that i will save you
from all of the unclean
I wonder what your doing
I wonder where you are
There's oceans in between us
but that's not very far

[Chorus]

Nobody told me what you thought
nobody told me what to say
everyone showed you where to turn
told you where to runaway
nobody told you where to hide
nobody told you what to say
everyone showed you where to turn
showed you where to runaway

[Chorus]

This pain you gave to me

you take it all
you take it all away...
This pain you gave to me
you take it all away
This pain you gave to me
take it all away
This pain you gave to me

Final Answer- The Calling

I want love
To carry me through
All the moments, I'd kindly undo
Locked away
So I can feel safe

Now that I'm down on my knees, begging for change
Look down at the water
Before I jump in
To find I was sinking fast, in all the might have been

Chorus :
What I need now is an honest answer, to make things better
You can see now my hands are tied, and I surrender
So I'll wait here for your final answer, your final answer

Is there love without hate
Is there pleasure without pain?
I have seen all my mistakes
I cast you out, but now, I want you back
So light me again, cause my heart is turning black

Chorus

Remember the night you wore that dress
It flowed through out lips
Drink after drink, and kiss after kiss
I'm still holding on, day after day
Don't run away

I want love to carry me through
Can you tell me what I'm supposed to do

Chorus

[Kitty]

Hoobastank: Let You Know

Verse 1:
Just thought that I let you know,
that although I'm far,
I'm close to you within.
All the time spent by your side,
is digging deep in me,
and for me to care.
Make me born when I feel alike,
everything & one,
is turning me for something or other.
Takes me to a better place,
Where I rather go,
but I let you know...

Chorus:
Who you are,
what you do,
makes me burn,
to be in you.
Who you are,
what you do,
I'm burning to be in you.

Verse 2:
Just thought that I let you know,
being near you is,
a gift that I wish I could treasure.
And for now I'll sit & wait,
but I'm burning for you,
and I'll let you know...

Chorus

thought....i.....let....you know.
fells like i'm falling all on my own,
thought.....i......let.....you know.

Don't Cry- Guns N' Roses

Talk to me softly
There's something in your eyes
Don't hang your head in sorrow
And please don't cry
I know how you feel inside I've
I've been there before
Somethin's changin' inside you
And don't you know

Don't you cry tonight
I still love you baby
Don't you cry tonight
Don't you cry tonight
There's a heaven above you baby
And don't you cry tonight

Give me a whisper
And give me a sigh
Give me a kiss before you
tell me goodbye
Don't you take it so hard now
And please don't take it so bad
I'll still be thinkin' of you
And the times we had...baby

And don't you cry tonight
Don't you cry tonight
Don't you cry tonight
There's a heaven above you baby
And don't you cry tonight

And please remember that I never lied
And please remember
how I felt inside now honey
You gotta make it your own way
But you'll be alright now sugar
You'll feel better tomorrow
Come the morning light now baby

And don't you cry tonight
An don't you cry tonight
An don't you cry tonight
There's a heaven above you baby
And don't you cry
Don't you ever cry
Don't you cry tonight
Baby maybe someday
Don't you cry
Don't you ever cry
Don't you cry
Tonight

Bring It On

Bring it on
Bring it on bring it on bring it on bring it on...

First I didn't have the will to carry on
Illusions in my mind
Like that picture when you feel you can't go on
Like you've been left behind

Life goes on, now
Take me to that funky place where you and I were born.

Carry on, now
Psychedlic tendencies of love will bring it on

...bring it on...
Bring it on
Bring it on, Bring it on
Don't wait until tomorrow
Bring it on
Bring it on
Bring it on

Give me something for the dream that I am in
You know I love the way you save me
A broken pawn, I depended on.
Was only life, I was feeling

It goes on, now
Take me to that funky place where you and I were born
Carry on, now
Ain't no reason you should feel for shorn,
Unconditioned love will bring it on

Bring it on
Bring it on
Don't wait until tomorrow
Wait until tomorrow
Bring it on

Bring it on, bring it on bring it on

Bring it on, bring it on bring it on
...Bring it on.............

Bring it on, bring it on bring it on
Bring it on, bring it on bring it on
Bring it on, bring it on bring it on

Bring it on, bring it on bring it on
...Bring it on............

Bring it on, bring it on bring it on
Bring it on, bring it on bring it on
Bring it on, bring it on bring it on

Unconditioned love will bring it on

La da..da de da...

So what lies under.
Is your Kingdom Come?
Chase it way,
Down low.
It's only life.

Don't wait until tomorrow.
Don't wait until tomorrow.
Don't wait until tomorrow.
Don't wait until,
Wait until tomorrow.

Bring it on, bring it on bring it on
Bring it on

Robbie Williams: One of God's better people

You're one of God's better people
And you don't know
That's why you're special
And I cry so I can talk like this
From my downbeat existence
And I know that you can make my wish
If my wish is pure

But I don't know
I just don't know
I don't know
Let me love you so

Now I can't live this without you
I'd die without you
Without you, without you

You're one of God's better people
And you don't know
That's why you're special
It must hurt to see your favourite man
Lose himself again and again
And I know that you're my only friend
From way back when

My wish was pure
It was oh so pure
It was pure
I couldn't love you more

Now I can't live this without you
I'd die without you
Without you
Now I can't live this without you
I'd die without you
Without you, without you

And everybody's going to step aside
As you spread your wings and you will fly
And take me to the other side where they know
'cos I don't no more
I just don't know no more
I don't know
Let me love you so

Now I can't live this without you
I'd die without you
Without you
Now I can't live this without you
Without you, without you

You're one of God's better people
And you don't know
That's why you're special

Redemption Day

I've wept for those who suffer long
But how I weep for those who've gone
Into rooms of grief and questioned wrong
But keep on killing
It's in the soul to feel such things
But weak to watch without speaking
Oh what mercy sadness brings
If God be willing

There is a train that's heading straight
To heaven's gate, to heaven's gate
And on the way, child and man,
And woman wait, watch and wait
For redemption day

Fire rages in the streets
And swallows everything it meets
It's just an image often seen
On television
Come leaders, come you men of great
Let us hear you pontificate
Your many virtues laid to waste
And we aren't listening

What do you have for us today
Throw us a bone but save the plate
On why we waited til so late
Was there no oil to excavate
No riches in trade for the fate
Of every person who died in hate
Throw us a bone, you men of great

There is a train that's heading straight
To heaven's gate, to heaven's gate
And on the way, child and man,
And woman wait, watch and wait
For redemption day

It's buried in the countryside
It's exploding in the shells at night
It's everywhere a baby cries
Freedom

Solidify

Pouring in and around the great wellspring
Of simple feeling
And I need bearings in the face of your
Cool cool fire
Walking backwards with the pounding of your voice
Makes my soul tired
And concrete is
As concrete doesn't
And voices can drown

Why should I [4 times]
Solidify
Make me real
So you can see me

I guess you thought
I'd hide the sun from my liquid thoughts and
Make ice for you
You thought I'd seed my clouds
With the rain of your personal dreams
I guess you thought I'd throw confetti
At your parade of lofty thoughts
I guess you thought I'd shine good morning
In some good morning Jack
Surprise

Why should I [4 times]
Solidify
Make me real
So you can see me

Yo, I used to check out lyrics upon the format
Build with skill with technique. Computer A-DAT
My lyrical form is clouds on your brainstorm
I get hyped think thought flow. Acrobat, sink the track, pump the track
Dance missions,clubs like spores react by. Strong visions
And hurrying more. Reflects on the dancefloor
Flow it up and having now people showing up
Packing crowds jam packed venues
Needles collapse, while atmosphere continues
Sprinkle that,
Winnin' like that, movin'like that, hittin' like that
The melody is phat
Yeah, I'm on the energy source
The cosmic force

Kicking astrology
My intellect's the power

We spin back rewind. Diesel Power
Blows your mind drastically, fantasically
It has to be, automatically
Check it out. You better work it out
Change it to another route
My techniques, strategies, abilities.
I leave cords of mikes hanging like Spring Lees
You would try so fast. Beyond the human eye
Lyrical tactics, vocal gymnastics
Ease and pepped up
You get swept up
Smacked up, backed up, your crew's all cracked up
Checking flow
Quick choose quick
You can't stick
My medical brain's a stranger's angles
You get tangled. Twisting side effects us
Channels repeat, complete. Can't compete
Check that our texture

It attracts to devour
My intellectual seed

High quality acts should be still standing

Cuts like a barbed wire

One Step Closer: Linkin Park

Verse 1:
I cannot take this anymore,
I'm saying everything I've said before,
All these words they make no sense,
I find bliss in ignorance,
Less I hear the less you say,
But you'll find that out anyway.

Just like before.....

Chorus:
Everything you say to me,
Takes me one step closer to the edge,
And I'm about to break.
I need a little room to breathe,
cause I'm one step closer to the edge,
and I'm about to break.

Verse 2:
I find the answers aren't so clear,
wish I could find a way to disappear.
All these thoughts they make no sense,
I find bliss in ignorance,
nothing seems to go away,
over & over again.

Just like before.....

Chorus

Shutup when I'm talking to you
Shutup
Shutup
Shutup
Shutup when I'm talking to you
Shutup
Shutup
Shutup...I'm about to break.

Crawling: Linkin Park

Chorus:

Crawling in my skin,
consuming all I feel,
fear is how I fall,
confusing what is real.

Verse 1:
There's something inside me that pulls beneath the surface,
consuming, confusing.
This lack of self-control I feel is never-ending,
controlling, I can't seem

To find myself again,
my walls are closing in.
(without a sense of confidence and I'm convinced that there's just too much pressure to take)
I've felt this way before,
so insecure.

Chorus

Verse 2:
Discomfort, endlessly has pulled itself upon me,
distracting, reacting.
Against my will I stand beside my own reflection,
it's haunting, how I can't seem...

To find myself again,
my walls are closing in.
(without a sense of confidence and I'm convinced that there's just too much pressure to take)
I've felt this way before,
so insecure.

Chorus:
Crawling in my skin,
consuming all I feel,
fear is how I fall,
confusing what is real.

Crawling in my skin,
consuming all I feel,
fear is how I fall,
confusing, confusing what is real
(there's something inside me that pulls beneath the surface, consuming)
confusing what is real
(it's like a self-control I fear is never-ending, controlling)
confusing what is real.

Last Resort - Papa Roach
Cut my life into pieces
This is my last resort,
Suffocation no breathing
Don't give a ***** if I cut my arm bleeding

This is my last resort

Cut my life into pieces
I've reached my last resort,
Suffocation no breathing
Don't give a ***** if I cut my arm bleeding
Do you even care if I die pleading
Would it be wrong, would it be right
If I took my life tonight,
Chances are that I might
Mudilation outta sight
and I'm contimplating suicide

CHORUS:
'Cause I'm losing my sight, losing my mind
Wish somebody would tell me I'm fine
Nothing's alright, nothing is fine
I'm running and I'm crying

I never realized I was spread too thin
'Till it was too late and I was empty within
Hungry, feeding on my chaos and living in sin
Downward spiral, where do I begin
It all started when I lost my mother
No love for myself and no love for another
Searching to find a love upon a higher level
finding nothing but questions and devils

CHORUS

I can't go on living this way

(Repeat First Verse)

Vertical Horizon

We Are

Take a listen through the window
Take a lover on the radio
Ask her if she's got an answer
Do you know

Time enough to get a good one
Though they never seem to get done
I am standing for a reason
Do you know

Chorus
'Cause I don't know how
And I don't know where
We are we are
And I don't know why
I don't know if
We are we are

Seven days and not a return
Seven lives and not a thing learned
Take a lover on the highway
Do you know?

'Cause I am sleeping on a time bomb
And I am waiting for the light to come
You and I could get away now
Do you know

Chorus

I get up sometimes
Like somebody else
Am I just wasting time
For somebody else

Take a listen through the window
Another lover on the radio
Ask her if she's got an answer
Do you know?

Chorus

Everything You Want

Somewhere there's speaking
It's already coming in
Oh and it's rising at the back of your mind
You never could get it
Unless you were fed it
Now you're here and you don't know why

But under skinned knees and the skid marks
Past the places where you used to learn
You howl and listen
Listen and wait for the
Echoes of angels who won't return

Chorus
He's everything you want
He's everything you need
He's everything inside of you
That you wish you could be
He says all the right things
At exactly the right time
But he means nothing to you
And you don't know why

You're waiting for someone
To put you together
You're waiting for someone to push you away
There's always another wound to discover
There's always something more you wish he'd say

Chorus

But you'll just sit tight
And watch it unwind
It's only what you're asking for
And you'll be just fine
With all of your time
It's only what you're waiting for

Out of the island
Into the highway
Past the places where you might have turned
You never did notice
But you still hide away
The anger of angels who won't return

Chorus
I am everything you want
I am everything you need
I am everything inside of you
That you wish you could be
I say all the right things
At exactly the right time
But I mean nothing to you and I don't know why
And I don't know why
Why
I don't know

Linkin Park - Papercut

Why does it feel like night today?
Something in here's not right today
Why am I so uptight today?
Paranoia's all I got left
I don't know what stressed me first
Or how the pressure was fed but
I know just what it feels like
To have a voice in the back of my head
It's like a face that I hold inside
A face that awakes when I close my eyes
A face watches every time I lie
A face that laughs every time I fall
(And watches everything)
So I know that when it's time to sink or swim
That the face inside is hearing me right underneath my skin

It's like I'm paranoid lookin' over my back
It's like a whirlwind inside of my head
It's like I can't stop what I'm hearing within
It's like the face inside is right beneath my skin

I know I've got a face in me
Points out all my mistakes to me
You've got a face on the inside too and
Your paranoia's probably worse
I don't know what set me off first but I know what I can't stand
Everybody acts like the fact of the matter is
I can't add up to what you can but
Everybody has a face that they hold inside
A face that awakes when I close my eyes
A face watches every time they lie
A face that laughs every time they fall
(And watches everything)
So you know that when it's time to sink or swim
That the face inside is watching you too right inside your skin

It's like I'm paranoid lookin' over my back
It's like a whirlwind inside of my head
It's like I can't stop what I'm hearing within
It's like the face inside is right beneath my skin

It's like I'm paranoid lookin' over my back
It's like a whirlwind inside of my head
It's like I can't stop what I'm hearing within
It's like the face inside is right beneath my skin

The face inside is right beneath your skin

The sun goes down
I feel the light betray me

It's like I'm paranoid lookin' over my back
It's like a whirlwind inside of my head
It's like I can't stop what I'm hearing within
It's like the face inside is right beneath my skin
It's like I'm paranoid lookin' over my back
It's like a whirlwind inside of my head
It's like I can't stop what I'm hearing within
It's like I can't stop what I'm hearing within
It's like I can't stop what I'm hearing within
It's like the face inside is right beneath my skin

Linkin Park - Pushing Me Away
(I like all the Hybrid Theory songs, but this is one that I can relate to the most!)

I've lied to you
The same way that I always do
This is the last smile
That I'll fake for the sake of being with you

(Everything falls apart
Even the people who never frown
Eventually break down)
The sacrifice of hiding in a lie
(Everything has to end
You'll soon find we're out of time
To watch it all unwind)
The sacrifice is never knowing

Why I never walked away
Why I played myself this way
Now I see your testing me pushes me away
Why I never walked away
Why I played myself this way
Now I see your testing me pushes me away

I've tried like you
To do everything you wanted too
This is the last time
I'll take the blame for the sake of being with you

(Everything falls apart
Even the people who never frown
Eventually break down)
The sacrifice of hiding in a lie
(Everything has to end
You'll soon find we're out of time
To watch it all unwind)
The sacrifice is never knowing

Why I never walked away
Why I played myself this way
Now I see your testing me pushes me away
Why I never walked away
Why I played myself this way
Now I see your testing me pushes me away
The sacrifice of hiding in a lie
The sacrifice is never knowing
Why I never walked away
Why I played myself this way
Now I see your testing me pushes me away
Why I never walked away
Why I played myself this way
Now I see your testing me pushes me away
Pushes me away

Too Bad- Nickelback
Fathers hands
Were lined with dirt
From long days in the field
And mothers hands
Are serving meals
In a cafe on Main Street
With mouths to feed
Just trying to keep
Clothing on our backs
And all I hear about is
How it's so bad
It's so bad
It's too bad
It's too bad
Too late
So wrong
So long
It's too bad that
We had no time to rewind
Let's walk
Let's talk
Let's talk

You left without
Saying goodbye
Although
I'm sure you tried
You call and ask
From time to time
To make sure
We're alive
But you weren't there
Right when
I'm needing you the most
And now I dream about it
How it's so bad
It's so bad

It's too bad
It's too bad
Too late
So wrong
So long
It's too bad that
We had no time to rewind
Let's walk
Let's talk
Let's talk

Father's hands
Are lined with guilt
For tearing us apart
Guess it turned
Out in the end
Just look at
Where we are
Made it out, still got
Clothing on our backs
And now I scream about it
How it's so bad
It's so bad

It's too bad
It's too bad
Too late
So wrong
So long
It's too bad that
We had no time to rewind
Let's walk
Let's talk
Let's talk

No time
Last one
Let's go

Linkin Park- In The End

It starts with
One thing I don't know why
It doesn't even matter how hard you try
Keep that in mind I designed this rhyme
To explain in due time
All I know
Time is a valuable thing
Watch it fly by as the pendulum swings
Watch it count down to the end of the day
The clock ticks life away
It's so unreal
Didn't look out below
Watch the time go right out the window
Trying to hold on but didn't even know
Wasted it all just to
Watch you go
I kept everything inside and even though I tried it all fell apart
What it meant to me will eventually be a memory of a time when I tried so hard

I tried so hard
And got so far
But in the end
It doesn't even matter
I had to fall
To lose it all
But in the end
It doesn't even matter

One thing I don’t know why
It doesn’t even matter how hard you try
Keep that in mind I designed this rhyme
To remind myself how
I tried so hard
In spite of the way you were mocking me
Acting like I was part of your property
Remembering all the times you fought with me
I'm surprised it got so far
Things aren't the way they were before
You wouldn't even recognize me anymore
Not that you knew me back then
But it all comes back to me
In the end
You kept everything inside and even though I tried it all fell apart
What it meant to me will eventually be a memory of a time when I

I tried so hard
And got so far
But in the end
It doesn't even matter
I had to fall
To lose it all
But in the end
It doesn't even matter

I put my trust in you
Pushed as far as I can go
For all this
There's only one thing you should know

I put my trust in you
Pushed as far as I can go
For all this
There's only one thing you should know

I tried so hard
And got so far
But in the end
It doesn't even matter
I had to fall
To lose it all
But in the end
It doesn't even matter

[Rogue]

The Dolphin's Cry- Live
The way you're bathed in light
Reminds me of that night
God laid me down into your rose garden of trust
And I was swept away
With nothin' left to say
Some helpless fool
Yeah I was lost in a swoon of peace
You're all I need to find
So when the time is right
Come to me sweetly, come to me
Come to me

Love will lead us, alright
Love will lead us, she will lead us
Can you hear the dolphin's cry?
See the road rise up to meet us
It's in the air we breathe tonight
Love will lead us, she will lead us

Oh yeah, we meet again
It's like we never left
Time in between was just a dream
Did we leave this place?
This crazy fog surrounds me
You wrap your legs around me
All I can do to try and breathe
Let me breathe so that I
So we can go together!

Love will lead us, alright
Love will lead us, she will lead us
Can you hear the dolphin's cry?
See the road rise up to meet us
It's in the air we breathe tonight
Love will lead us, she will lead us

Life is like a shooting star
It don't matter who you are
If you only run for cover, it's just a waste of time
We are lost 'til we are found
This phoenix rises up from the ground
And all these wars are over

Over
Over
Singin' la da da, da da da
Over
Come to me
Singin' la da da da, da da da
Come to me

Stabbing Westward

Save Yourself

I know your life is empty
and you hate to face the world alone
so you're searching for an angel
someone who can make you whole...

I cannot save you
I can't even save myself

I know that you've been damned
your soul has suffered much abuse
but I am not your savior
I am just as f***ed as you...

I cannot save you
I can't even save myself

please don't take pity on me

My life has been a nightmare
my soul is fractured to the bone
so if I must be lonely
I think I'd rather be alone...

You cannot save me
You can't even save yourself

I cannot save you
I can't even save myself

So just save yourself
So just save yourself

[Tardumb]

Our Lady Peace - Somewhere Out There

last time I talked to you
you were lonely and out of place
you were looking down on me
lost out in space
layed out underneath the stars
strung out and feeling brave
watch the riddles glow
watch 'em float away

down here in the atmosphere
garbage and city lights
gotta save your tired soul
gotta save our lives
turn on the radio
to find you on satellite
I'm waiting for the sky to fall
I'm waiting for a sign
and all we are
is all so far

you're falling back to me
the star that I can't see
I know you're out there, somewhere out there
you're falling out of reach
defying gravity
I know you're out there, somewhere out there

I hope you remember me
when you're homesick and need a change
I miss your brown hair
I miss the way you taste
I know you'll come back someday
on a bed of nails awake
I'm praying that you don't burn out
or fade away
and all we are
is all so far

you're falling back to me
the star that I can't see
I know you're out there, somewhere out there
you're falling out of reach
defying gravity
I know you're out there, somewhere out there

you're falling back to me
the star that I can't see
I know you're out there, oohhh
you're falling out of reach
defying gravity
I know you're out there, somewhere out there

you're falling back to me
the star that I can't see
I know you're out there, somewhere out there
you're falling out of reach
defying gravity
I know you're out there, somewhere out there

you're falling back to me
well I know...I know

you're falling out of reach
I know...

Garbage

#1 Crush

I would die for you
I would die for you
I've been dying just to feel you by my side
To know that you're mine

I will cry for you
I will cry for you
I will wash away your pain with all my tears
And drown your fear

I will pray for you
I will pray for you
I will sell my soul for something pure and true
Someone like you

See your face every place that I walk in
Hear your voice every time that I'm talking
You will believe in me
And I will never be ignored

I will burn for you
Feel pain for you
I will twist the knife and bleed my aching heart
And tear it apart

I will lie for you
Beg and steal for you
I will crawl on hands and knees until you see
You're just like me

Violate all the love that I'm missing
Throw away all the pain that I'm living
You will believe in me
And I can never be ignored

I would die for you
I would kill for you
I will steal for you
I'd do time for you
I will wait for you
I'd make room for you
I'd sink ships for you
To be close to you
To be part of you
Cause I believe in you
I believe in you
I would die for you

Shout

"Shout"

Shout
Shout
Let it all out
These are things I can do without
Come On
I'm talking to you
Come on

In violent times
You shouldn't have to sell your soul
In black and white
They really really ought to know
Those one track minds
That took you for a working boy
Kiss them goodbye
You shouldn't have to jump for joy

Chorus

They gave you life
And in return you gave them them hell
As cold as ice
I hope we live to tell the tale

Chorus

And when you've taken down your guard
If I could change your mind
I'd really love to break your heart

Chorus

Garbage
Queer

Hey boy, take a look at me
Let me dirty up your mind
I'll strip away your hard veneer
And see what I can find

The queerest of the queer
The strangest of the strange
The coldest of the cool
The lamest of the lame
The numbest of the dumb
I hate to see you here
You choke behind a smile
A fake behind the fear
The queerest of the queer

This is what he pays me for
I'll show you how it's done
You learn to love the pain you feel
Like father like son

The queerest of the queer
Hide inside your head
The blindest of the blind
The deadest of the dead
You're hungry `cause you starve
While holding back the tears
Choking on your smile
A fake behind the fear
The queerest of the queer

I know what's good for you...you can touch me if you want
I know you're dying to...you can touch me if you want
I know what's good for you...you can touch me if you want
But you can't stop

The queerest of the queer
The strangest of the strange
The coldest of the cool
The lamest of the lame
The numbest of the dumb
I hate to see you here
You choke behind a smile
A fake behind the fear
The queerest of the queer
The strangest of the strange
The coldest of the cool
You're nothing special here
A fake behind the fear
The queerest of the queer

I know what's good for you I know you're dying to
I know what's good for you
I bet you're dying to
You can touch me if you want
You can touch me if you want
You can touch me
You can touch me
But you can't stop

Unwritten Law - Seein' Red

I'm seein' red
don't think you'll have to see my face again
don't have much time for sympathy
cause it never happened to me
you're feeling blue now
I think you bit off more than you could chew
and now it's time to make a choice
and all I wanna hear is your voice...

so follow
the leader down
and swallow
your pride and drown
when there's no place left to go
maybe that's when you will know
(x2)

and foolish lies
well can't you see I tried to compromise
cause what you say ain't always true
and I can see the tears in your eyes
and what you said now
can't stop the words from running through my head
and what I'd do to get through to you
but you'd only do it again...

follow
the leader now
and swallow
your pride and drown
when there's no place left to go
maybe that's when you will know
(x2)

mmmmm...well I confess
I don't know what to make from all this mess
don't have much time for sympathy
but it never happened to me
you're feeling down now
I don't know where I'll be when you come around
and now it's time to make a choice
and all I wanna hear is your voice...

Frozen

You only see what your eyes want to see
How can life be what you want it to be
You're frozen when your heart's not open
You're so consumed with how much you get
You waste your time with hate and regret
You're broken when your heart's not open

Chorus
Mmm... If I could melt your heart
Mmm.. We'd never be apart
Mmm... Give yourself to me
Mmm... You hold the key

Now there's no point in placing the blame
And you should know I'd suffer the same
If I lose you, my heart would be broken
Love is a bird; she needs to fly
Let all the hurt inside of you die
You're frozen when your heart's not open

Chorus

You only see what your eyes want to see
How can life be what you want it to be
You're frozen when your heart's not open

Chorus (2x)

If I could melt your heart

Stillness of Heart: Lenny Kravitz

I'm out here on the street
There's no one left to meet
The things that were so sweet
No longer move my feet
But I keep trying
I keep on trying

All that I want is
Stillness of heart
So I can start
To find my way
Out of the dark
And into your heart

I got more than I can eat
A life that can't be beat
Yet still I feel this heat
I'm feeling incomplete
What am I buying?
My soul is crying

All that I want is
Stillness of heart
So I can start
To find my way
Out of the dark
And into your heart

Where's the love?
What is this world we live in?
Where's the love ?
We've got to keep on giving
Where's the love ?
What happened to forgiving ?
Anyone ?

All that I want is
Stillness of heart
So I can start
To find my way
Out of the dark
And into your heart

Echoes

Overhead the albatross hangs motionless upon the air
And deep beneath the rolling waves
in labyrinths of coral caves
The echo of a distant tide
Comes willowing across the sand
And everything is green and submarine.

And no one showed us to the land
And no one knows the wheres or whys
But something stares and something tries
And starts to climb towards the light

Strangers passing in the street
By chance two separate glances meet
And I am you and what I see is me
And do I take you by the hand
And lead you through the land
And help me understand the best I can
And no one calls us to move on
And no one forces down our eyes
And no one speaks
And no one tries
And no one flies around the sun

Cloudless everyday you fall
Upon my waking eyes
Inviting and inciting me to rise.
And through the window in the wall
Comes streaming in on sunlight wings
A million bright ambassadors of morning
And no one sings me lullabies
And no one makes me close my eyes
And so I throw the windows wide
And call to you across the skies.

Ozzy Osbourne - Dreamer

Gazing through the window at the world outside
Wondering will mother earth survive
Hoping that mankind will stop abusing her sometime

After all there's only just the two of us
And here we are still fighting for our lives
Watching all of history repeat itself
Time after time

I'm just a dreamer
I dream my life away
I'm just a dreamer
Who dreams of better days

I watch the sun go down like everyone of us
I'm hoping that the dawn will bring a sign
A better place for those Who will come after us ...
This time

I'm just a dreamer
I dream my life away oh yeah
I'm just a dreamer
Who dreams of better days

Your higher power may be God or Jesus Christ
It doesn't really matter much to me
Without each others help there ain't no hope for us
I'm living in a dream of fantasy
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah

If only we could all just find serenity
It would be nice if we could live as one
When will all this anger, hate and biggotry ...
Be gone?

I'm just a dreamer
I dream my life away
Today
I'm just a dreamer
Who dreams of better days
Okay
I'm just a dreamer
Who's searching for the way
Today
I'm just a dreamer
Dreaming my life away
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah

No Regrets - Faye Wong

This time I resolutely confront
I rashly allow myself to become enraptured
I don't care whether this is right or wrong
Even if it is a dangerous trap, I won't care about anything else
Even when it comes to love, I'll love without regret

Don't tell me that I should give up
That I should open my eyes
I use my heart, To see and to feel
You're not me, so how can you understand?
Even when it comes to love, let me love without regret

I'm not as perfect as you think
I admit that sometimes I can't tell the difference between truth and deception
It's not that I'm unwilling to walk out of this heap of love
It's only that this time, this time it's me and not someone else

Whose heart should I use to comprehend
To truly experience my surroundings
Even if it's painful, even if it's tearful
It's all part of my remorse

Whose heart can I use to comprehend
To truly experience my surroundings
Even if I'm tired, even if I'm weary
I can only love without regret

[HotBoy]

Here's one of mine:

Shoot'Em Up Movies by The Deele

"I've got a ticket, got an aisle seat,
I was ready for that good old western flick.
Then all at once, an angel sat down next to me,
so I had to think of something quick.(what shall I do)? I said "excuse me, have I seen you somewhere before?" And then she smiled at me with
big, brown eyes".

"We talked, and talked,
as the bad guy shot at the town,
and sure enough, she was in my arms,
as they brought that curtain down".

"Oh I met my baby at the(bang-bang, gotcha)
shoot'em up movies.
During the gunfight, we fell in love.
Oh I met my baby at the(bang-bang, gotcha)
shoot'em up movies, yeah".

"All at once, I knew
I wouldn't see this movie through,
I was so lost, gazing into her eyes.
She shared my popcorn, I wish we had a kiss,
and then she whispered "I love you"
to my surprise".

"The posse rode in, as the bad guys made the getaway. There we were, falling in love, oh, I'll never forget that day".

"Oh I met my baby at the(bang-bang, gotcha)
shoot'em up movies.
During the gunfight, we fell in love.
Oh I met my baby at the(bang-bang, gotcha)
shoot'em up movies, yeah".

"Oooh-oooh-oooh (She said she loved me)
oooh-oooh-oooh(Then the lights went down, hey).
Oooh-oooh-oooh(mmm-mm-hmm)
Oooh-oooh-oooh-oooh-oooh(Ok, Ok)".

"I said "excuse me, have I seen you somewhere before"?
And then she smiled at me with big, brown
eyes".

"Oh, I met my baby at the(bang-bang, gotcha)
shoot'em up movies.
During the gunfight, we fell in love.
Oh, I met my baby at the(bang-bang, gotcha)
shoot'em up, shoot'em up movies, yeah.
Hooo, shoot'em up, shoot'em up movies, yeah."

"While the good guys, and the bad guys were fighting it out, we fell in love.

[Peter]

Your House by Alanis Morissette

I went to your house
Walked up the stairs
Opened your door without ringing the bell
Walked down the hall
Into your room where I could smell you
And I shouldn't be here
Without permission
Shouldn't be here...

Chorus:
Would you forgive me love if I dance in your shower?
Would you forgive me love if I laid in your bed?
Would you forgive me love if I stay all afternoon?

I took off my clothes
Put on your robe
Went through your drawers
And I found your cologne
Went down do the den
Found your CD’s
And I played your Joni
And I shouldn't stay long
You might be home soon
Shouldn't stay long...

Repeat Chorus

I burned your incense
I ran a bath
I noticed a letter that sat on your desk
It said:
Hello love.
I love you so, love.
Meet me at midnight.
And no, it wasn't my writing
I'd better go soon
It wasn't my writing

So forgive me love if I cry in your shower
So forgive me love for the salt in your bed
So forgive me love if I cry all afternoon

[DrxLecter]

Nine Inch Nails - Hurt

i hurt myself today
to see if i still feel
i focus on the pain
the only thing that's real

the needle tears a hole
the old familiar sting
try to kill it all away
but i remember everything

what have i become?
my sweetest friend
everyone i know
goes away in the end

you could have it all
my empire of dirt
i will let you down
i will make you hurt

i wear this crown of *****
upon my liar's chair
full of broken thoughts
i cannot repair

beneath the stains of time
the feelings disappear
you are someone else
i am still right here

what have i become?
my sweetest friend
everyone i know
goes away in the end

and you could have it all
my empire of dirt
i will let you down
i will make you hurt

if i could start again
a million miles away
i would keep myself
i would find a way

A Perfect Circle - Judtih

You're such an inspiration for the ways
That I'll never ever choose to be
Oh so many ways for me to show you
How your savior has abandoned you
***** your God
Your Lord and your Christ
He did this
Took all you had and
Left you this way
Still you pray, you never stray
Never taste of the fruit
You never thought to question why

It's not like you killed someone
It's not like you drove a hateful spear into his side
Praise the one who left you broken down and paralyzed
He did it all for you

Oh so many many ways for me to show you
How your god has abandoned you
Pray to your Christ, to your god
Never taste of the fruit
Never stray, never break
Never---choke on a lie
Even though he's the one who did this to you
You never thought to question why

Not like you killed someone
it's not like you drove a spiteful spear into his side
Talk to Jesus Christ as if he knows the reasons why
He did it all for you

--------------------------------------------------
Tool - Eulogy

He had alot to say.
He had alot of nothing to say.
We'll miss him. (2x)
We're gonna miss him (2x)
So long.
We wish you well.
You told us how you weren't afraid to die.
Well then, so long.
Don't cry.
Or feel too down.
Not all martyrs see divinity.
But at least you tried.
Standing above the crowd,
He had a voice that was strong and loud.
We'll miss him. (2x)
Ranting and pointing his finger
At everything but his heart.
We'll miss him. (2x)
We're gonna miss him (2x)
No way to recall
What it was that you had said to me,
Like I care at all.
But it was so loud.
You sure could yell.
You took a stand on every little thing
And so loud.
Standing above the crowd,
He had a voice so strong and loud and I
Swallowed his facade cuz I'm so
Eager to identify with
Someone above the ground,
Someone who seemed to feel the same,
Someone prepared to lead the way, with
Someone who would die for me.
Will you?
Will you now?
Would you die for me?
Don't you *****in' lie.
Don't you step out of line. (3x)
Don't you *****in' lie.
You've claimed all this time that you would die for me.
Why then are you so surprised when you hear your own eulogy?
You had alot to say.
You had alot of nothing to say.
Come down.
Get off your *****in cross.
We need the *****in' space to nail the next fool up.
To ascend you must die.
You must be crucified
For our sins and our lies.
Goodbye...

--------------------------------------------------
Tool - Opiate

Choices always were a problem for you.
What you need is someone strong to guide you.
Deaf and blind and dumb and born to follow,
what you need is someone strong to use you...
like me,
like me.

If you want to get your soul to heaven,
trust in me.
Don't judge or question.
You are broken now,
but faith can heal you.
Just do everything I tell you to do.
Deaf and blind and dumb and born to follow.
Let me lay my holy hand upon you.

My God's will
becomes me.
When he speaks out,
he speaks through me.
He has needs
like I do.
We both want
to rape you.

Jesus Christ, why don't you come save my life.
Open my eyes and blind me with your light
and your lies .

Busted by Ray Charles

My bills are all due and the baby needs shoes and I'm busted
Cotton is down to a quarter a pound, but I'm busted
I got a cow that went dry and a hen that won't lay
A big stack of bills that gets bigger each day
The county's gonna haul my belongings away cause I'm busted.

I went to my brother to ask for a loan cause I was busted
I hate to beg like a dog without his bone, but I'm busted
My brother said there ain't a thing I can do,
My wife and my kids are all down with the flu,
And I was just thinking about calling on you 'cause I'm busted.

Well, I am no thief, but a man can go wrong when he's busted
The food that we canned last summer is gone and I'm busted
The fields are all bare and the cotton won't grow,
Me and my family got to pack up and go,
But I'll make a living, just where I don't know cause I'm busted.

I'm broke...no bread...I mean like nothin...forget it...

[Iceman]

Default - Deny

Today I woke up and you were gone
The whole day wondering what I did wrong
It's like I'm falling from a mountaintop
My heart keeps pounding and it won't stop

Can you see this hell I'm living
I'm not giving up

Will you crawl to me
Will you fall with me
I'll never crawl to you
I've done it all for you

Well don't deny
The hand that feeds you needs you
Oh god I'd die to try to
Finally please you

There goes a piece of me
Will I cease to be
I've never lied to you
Fought bled and died for you

Well don't deny
The hand that takes you breaks you
Oh god I'd die to try to
Finally please you

There she goes and I'm on the ground, I'm on the ground, I'm on the

Well don't deny
The hand that feeds you needs you
Oh god I'd die to try to
Finally please you

Will you crawl to me
Will you fall with me
I've never crawled to you
I've done it all for you

Good ones Lecter. Especially with Hurt. And though I don't agree with Maynard's views on religion, those are some awesome Tool/APC songs you've listed.

Got another song I thought of.

Nine Inch Nails - La Mer

[in French]

And when the day arrives
I'll become the sky
And I'll become the sea

And the sea will come to kiss me
For I am going
Home

Nothing can stop me now

[A+]

I don't wanna do the whole song, just some lovely snippets.

"Slim Shady
Hotter than a set of twin babies
And a Mercedes Benz with the windows up
When the temp goes up to the mid eighties"

"Pay your surgeon very well to break the spell of ageing
Sicker than the rest there is no test
And this is what you're craving"

"Konnt ihr mich horen?
Konnt ihr mich sehen?
Konnt ihr mich fuhlen?
Ich verstehe euch nicht!"

“I've Got A Lovely Bunch Of Coconuts”
Written by Fred Heatherton

Down at an English fair
One evening I was there
When I heard a showman
Shouting underneath the flair...

Oh, I've got a lovely bunch of coconuts,
There they are all standing in a row.
Big ones, small ones, some as big as your head
Give 'em a twist, a flick of the wrist,
That's what the showman said.

Oi! I've got a lovely bunch of coconuts
Every ball you throw will make me rich.
And there stands me wife, the idol of me life, singing
Roll a bowl a ball a penny a pitch.

Singing roll a bowl a ball a penny a pitch,
Singing roll a bowl a ball a penny a pitch,
Roll a bowl a ball
Roll a bowl a ball
Singing roll a bowl a ball a penny a pitch.

[Rogue]

You're welcome, Knerys! *walks off singing* "Oh, I've got a lovely bunch of coconuts, there they are all standing in a row!"

[The Mighty]

Listen Baby!
Ani't no mountain high, Ani't valley low, Ani't no river wide enough baby.
If you need me call me, no matter where you are, no matter how far.
Oh no baby
Just say me name, ill be there in a hurry, you dont have to woirrie!
Cause baby there just ani't no mountain high enough, anit no valley low enough, ani't no river wide enough, from keeping me from getting to you babe.

[Doomsday]

Let It Be by The Beatles

I don't wanna go find the lyrics, but this is one of the very, very few songs that can actually cheer you up if you're in a bad mood, and the lyrics are some you can relate to.

Colour My World by Chicago is one of my favorite slow songs. If I was a DJ or something, it would be played at every one of the dances. I'll see to it that it's played at my wedding!

[Hank Scorpio]

Elton John - Your Song

It's a little bit funny this feeling inside
I'm not one of those who can easily hide
I don't have much money but boy if I did
I'd buy a big house where we both could live

If I was a sculptor, but then again, no
Or a man who makes potions in a travelling show
I know it's not much but it's the best I can do
My gift is my song and this one's for you

And you can tell everybody this is your song
It may be quite simple but now that it's done
I hope you don't mind
I hope you don't mind that I put down in words
How wonderful life is while you're in the world

I sat on the roof and kicked off the moss
Well a few of the verses well they've got me quite cross
But the sun's been quite kind while I wrote this song
It's for people like you that keep it turned on

So excuse me forgetting but these things I do
You see I've forgotten if they're green or they're blue
Anyway the thing is what I really meäBøžD
Yours are the sweetest eyes I've ever seen

[Kitty]

Incubus-Under My Umbrella

When I close my eyes
I can see for miles.
There's comfort in my dark seat
and chaos in the aisles.

*chorus*
Those eyes are not your eyes,
and these eyes are not the color that
your arid eyes might be.
No, I was not around,
when those eyes of your decided so
I refuse to kneel before the
sights you choose to see.

When I close my eyes,
i remember how to smile.
Under my umbrella,
I'm an accomplished exile.

*chorus*
These eyes are not your eyes,
and these eyes are not the color that
your arid eyes might be.
No, I was not around,
when those eyse of yours decided so
I refuse to kneel before
the sights you choose to see!
If this is right,
I'd rather be wrong.
If this is sight,
I'd rather be blind.

Those eyes are not your eyes,
and these eyes are no the color that
your arid eyes might be.
No, I was not around,
when those eyes of yours decided so
I refuse to kneel before the
sights you choose to see.
If this is right,
I'd rahter be wrong.
If this is sight,
I'd rather be blind!

In These Arms
(Bon Jovi)

You want commitment
Take a look into these eyes
They burn with a fire
Until the end of time
I would do anything
I'd beg, I'd steal, I'd die
To have you in these arms tonight
Baby I want you like the roses
Want the rain
You know I need you
Like a poet needs the pain
I would give anything
My blood my love my life

If you were in these arms tonight
I'd hold you
I'd need you
I'd get down on my knees for you
And make everything alright
If you were in these arms
I'd love you
I'd please you
I'd tell you that I'd never leave you
And love you till the end of time
If you were in these arms tonight

We stared at the sun
And we made a promise
A promise this world would never blind us
These are our words
Our words were our songs
Our songs are our prayers
These prayers keep me strong
It's what I believe
If you were in these arms tonight

If you were in these arms tonight
I'd hold you
I'd need you
I'd get down on my knees for you
And make everything alright
If you were in these arms
I'd love you
I'd please you
I'd tell you that I'd never leave you
And love you till the end of time
If you were in these arms tonight

Your clothes are still scattered
All over our room
This old place still smells like
Your cheap perfume
Everything here reminds me of you
And there's nothing that I
Wouldn't do

And these were our words
They keep me strong baby
I'd hold you
I'd need you
I'd get down on my knees for you
And make everything alright
If you were in these arms
I'd love you
I'd please you
I'd tell you that I'd never leave you
And love you till the end of time
If you were in these arms tonight

[Frizzo the Clown]

Everythings so blurry and everyone's so fake
Everybody's empty, everything is so messed up
Preoccupied without you, I cannot live at all
My whole world surrounds you, I stumble and I crawl
You could be my someone, you can be my scene
You know that i'll protect you from all of the obscene
I wonder what you're doing, imagine where you are
There's oceans in between us but that's not very far.

Can you take it all away ? Can you take it all away ?
Well you shoved it in my face - This pain you gave to me
Can you take it all away ? Can you take it all away ?
Well you shoved it in my face - This pain you gave to me

Everyone is changing, there's no one left thats real
Wake up your own ending and let me know just how you feel
Cause I am lost without you I cannot live at all
My whole world surrounds you, I stumble and I crawl
You could be my someone, you can be my scene
You know that I'll save you from all of the unclean
I wonder what you're doing, imagine where you are
There's oceans in between us, but that's not very far

Nobody told me what you thought
Nobody told me what to say
Everyone showed you where to turn
Showed you when to run away
Nobody showed you where to hide
Nobody told you what to say
Everyone showed you where to turn
Showed you when to run away

Can you take away the pain,
The pain you gave to me
This pain you gave to me

[Rogue]

That's a great song.

[MysteryStar]

Magdelena by A Perfect Circle

Overcome by your
Moving temple
Overcome by this
Holiest of altars
So pure
So rare
To witness such an earthly goddess
That I've lost my self control
Beyond compelled to throw this dollar down before your
Holiest of altars
I'd sell
My soul
My self-esteem a dollar at a time
One chance
One kiss
One taste of you my magdalena
I bear witness
To this place, this prayer, so long forgotten
So pure
So rare
To witness such an earthly goddess
That I'd sell
My soul
My self-esteem a dollar at a time
For one chance
One kiss
One taste of you my black madonna
I'd sell
My soul
My self-esteem a dollar at a time
One taste
One taste
One taste of you my Magdalena

[QUINNtheESKIMO]

Its a bit long but:

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.

from "It's Alright Ma(I'm Only Bleeding)" on Bob Dylan's album "Bringing It All Back Home" 1965

[Rogue]

Every time I think of you
I always catch my breath
And I'm still standing here
And you're miles away
And I'm wondering why you left
And there's a storm that's raging
Through my frozen heart tonight
I hear your name in certain circles
And it always makes me smile
I spend my time thinking about you
And it's almost driving me wild
And there's a heart that's breaking
Down this long distance line tonight
I ain't missing you at all
Since you've been gone ..away
I ain't missing you
No matter what I might say
There's a message in the wild
And I'm sending you this signal tonight
You don't know how desperate I've become
And it looks like I'm losing this fight
In your world I have no meaning
Though I'm trying hard to understand
And it's my heart that's breaking
Down this long distance line tonight
I ain't missing you at all
Since you've been gone ..away
I ain't missing you
No matter what my friends say
And there's a message that I'm sending out
Like a telegraph to your soul
And if I can't bridge this distance
Stop this heartbreak overload
I ain't missing you at all
Since you've been gone ..away
I ain't missing you
No matter what my friends say
I ain't missing you..I ain't missing you
I keep lying to myself
And there's a storm that's raging
Through my frozen heart tonight
I ain't missing you at all
Since you've been gone ..away
I ain't missing you no matter what my friends say
Ain't missing you..I ain't missing you
I ain't missing you..I keep lying to myself
Ain't missing you..I ain't missing you
I ain't missing you..I ain't missing you
I ain't missing you..I ain't missing you
Ain't missing you..Oh no
No matter what my friends might say
I ain't missing you

[Rogue]

Once in a lifetime
You'll open up your heart
Maybe once in your lifetime
You'll swear to never be apart
You think your love's on solid ground
Then out of the blue, it all comes tumblin' down

Who's gonna hold me tonight
When I'm feeling lonely
Who's gonna show me the light
'Cause I need to know
With all the things we've got
How can love just stop
Tell Me
Somebody help me understand

And my picture in your locket
What will you do with it now
All our friends and all our memories
Tell me how we sort them out
What's yours is yours
What's mine is mine
Is that all that's left
After all this time

Who's gonna hold me tonight
When I'm feeling lonely
Who's gonna show me the light
'Cause I need to know
With all the things we've go
How can love just stop
Tell Me
Somebody help me understand

Help me understand
Why I'm not part of YOUR plan
And you don't need me anymore
Help me understand
Why I still wanna be where you are
Even though I know in my heart
You don't love me anymore

Who's gonna hold me tonight
When I'm feeling lonely
Who's gonna show me the light
'Cause I need to know
With all the things we've go
How can love just stop
Tell Me
Somebody help me understand

For Once in my life/Stevie Wonder

For once in my life
I have someone who needs me
Someone I've needed so long
For once unafraid
I can go where life leads me
And somehow I know I'll be strong

For once I can touch
What my heart used to dream of
Long before I knew
Someone warm like you
Could make my dreams come true

For once in my life
I won't let sorrow hurt me
Not like it's hurt me before, oh
For once I've got someone
I know won't desert me
'Cause I'm not alone anymore

For once I can say
This is mine, you can't take it
As long as I know I've got love I can make it
For once in my life
I've got someone who needs me

Warning-Incubus


Bat your eyes girl
Be otherworldly
Count your blessings
Seduce a stranger
What's so wrong
With being happy?
Kudos to those who
See through sickness
Yeah

Over and over
And over and over

She woke in the morning
She knew that her life
Had passed her by
She called out a warning
Don't ever let life pass you by

I suggest we
Learn to love ourselves
Before it's made illegal
When will we learn
When will we change
Just in time to see it
All come down

Those left standing

Adam Sandler from the Wedding Singer :D

You don't know how much I need you.
While you're around I don't feel blue.
And when we kiss I know that you need me too.
I can't believe I found a love that's so pure and true.

But it all was bulls**t.
It was a goddam joke.
And when I think of you and I,
I hope you f**king choke.

I hope you're glad with what you've done to me.
I lay in bed all day long feeling melancholy.
You left me here all alone, tears running constantly.

Oh somebody kill me please,
somebody kill me plee-ase,
I'm on my knees,
pretty pretty please kill me.

I want to die.
Put a bullet in my head.

[batwoMAN]

I really love Roger Waters, and almost anything he writes is going to be somewhat profound, especially when with Pink Floyd.. but these are probably my favorite lyrics of his.

Perfect Sense, Part I

The monkey sat on a pile of stones
And stared at the broken bone in his hand
And the stains of a Viennese quartet
Rang out across the land
The monkey looked up at the stars
And thought to himself
Memory is a stranger
History is for fools
And he cleaned his hands
In a pool of holy writing
Turned his back on the garden
And set out for the nearest town
Hold on, hold on, soldier
When you add it all up
The tears and the marrowbone
There's an ounce of gold
And an ounce of pride in each ledger
And the Germans killed the Jews
And the Jews killed the Arabs
And the Arabs killed the hostages
And that is the news
And is it any wonder
That the monkey's confused
He said Mama, Mama
The President's a fool
Why do I have to keep reading
These technical manuals
And the joint chiefs of staff
And the brokers on Wall Street said
Don't make us laugh
You're a smart kid
Time is linear
Memory is a stranger
History is for fools
Man is a tool in the hands
Of the great God Almighty
And they gave him command
Of a nuclear submarine
And sent him back in search of
The Garden of Eden

[QUINNtheESKIMO]

I was just wondering if anyone could post teh lyrics to Stairway to Heaven? I knoiw most of it, but after Jimmy's guitar solo I can't hardly understand anything that Robert Plant is saying.


anyway, how about these lyrics:

I am he as you are he as you are me and we are all together.
See how they run like pigs from a gun see how they fly,
I'm crying.
Sitting on a cornflake-waiting for the van to come.
Corporation Tshirt, stupid bloody tuesday man you been a naughty boy you let your face grow long.
I am the eggman, they are the eggmen, I am the walrus GOO GOO GOO JOOB.

Tommy Lee - Hold Me Down

I don’t make everyone happy…..but it’s ok….it’s ok
I’ve been through this before
It’s nothing new…nothing new

(Chorus: )
I don’t know why every time I wanna fly
somebody always tries
to hold me down...hold me down…
I’m losing my faith every single time I try
no one is on my side
don’t let me drown…let me drown

Don’t worry about whatcha done now cause it’s ok…it’s ok...yeah, yeah
It’s a test to see how much you can take…it’s nothing new…it's nothing new...IT'S NOTHING NEW!

(Chorus)

I am drowning…I am sinking….yeah
I am drowning…I am sinking….yeah
why won’t someone help me
why won’t someone help me - help me

Bon Jovi - I'd Die For You

If you could see inside my heart
Then you could understand
I'd never mean to hurt you
Baby I'm not that kind of man

I might not say I'm sorry
Yeah, I talk tough sometimes
And I might forget the little things
Or keep you hanging on the line

In a world that don't know Romeo and Juliet
Boy meets girl and promises we can't forget
We are cast from Eden's gate with no regrets
Into the fire we cry

Chorus:
I'd die for you
I'd cry for you
I'd do anything
I'd lie for you
You know it's true
Baby I'd die for you
I'd die for you
I'd cry for you
If it came right down to me and you
You know it's true, Baby I'd die for you

I might not be a savior
And I'll never be a king
I might not send you roses
Or buy you diamond rings

But if I could see inside you
Maybe I'd know just who we are
'Cause our love is like a hunger
Without it we would starve

In a world that don't know Romeo and Juliet
Boy meets girl and promises we can't forget
We are cast from Eden's gate with no regrets
Into the fire we cry

Chorus

Motorhead: Ace Of Spades

If you like to gamble, I tell you I'm your man,

You win some, lose some, all the same to me,

The pleasure is to play, makes no difference what you say,

I don't share your greed, the only card I need is

The Ace Of Spades


Playing for the high one, dancing with the devil,

Going with the flow, it's all the same to me,

Seven or Eleven, snake eyes watching you,

Double up or quit, double stake or split,

The Ace Of Spades


You know I'm born to lose, and gambling's for fools,

But that's the way I like it baby,

I don't wanna live for ever,

And don't forget the joker!


Pushing up the ante, I know you've got to see me,

Read 'em and weep, the dead man's hand again,

I see it in your eyes, take one look and die,

The only thing you see, you know it's gonna be,

The Ace Of Spades

Cibo Matto – Sugar Water

The velocity of time turns her voice into sugar water

I'm on a concrete way
The wind is blowing to the north-northwest
It smells like sands of the southern island
When a black cat crosses my path

A woman in the moon is singing to the earth
A woman in the moon is singing to the earth

La la la, la la la la la la
La la la, la la la la la la
La la la, la la la la la la
La la la, la la la la la la

I'm riding on a camel that has big eyes
The buildings are changing into coconut trees
Little by little
When a black cat crosses my path

A woman in the moon is singing to the earth
A woman in the moon is singing to the earth

La la la, la la la la la la
La la la, la la la la la la
La la la, la la la la la la
La la la, la la la la la la

La la la, la la la la la la
La la la, la la la la la la
La la la, la la la la la la
La la la, la la la la la la

We are taking sugar water shower

Mad About You

Feel the vibe, feel the terror, feel the pain
It's driving me insane
I can't fake
For god sakes why am I
Driving in the wrong lane
Trouble is my middle name
But in the end I'm not too bad
Can someone tell me if it's wrong to be so mad about you
Mad about you
Mad
Are you the fishy wine that will give me
A headache in the morning
Or just a dark blue land mine
That'll explode without a decent warning
Give me all your true hate
And I'll translate it in our bed
Into never seen passion, never seen passion
That it why I am so mad about you
Mad about you
Mad about you
Mad
Trouble is your middle name
But in the end you're not too bad
Can someone tell me if it's wrong to be
So mad about you
Mad about you
Mad
Give me all your true hate
And I'll translate it in your bed
Into never seen passion
That is why I am so mad about you
Mad about you



Emiliana Torrini - To be free
Once in a house on a hill
A boy got angry
He broke into my heart

For a day and a night
I stayed beside him
Until I had no hope

So I came down the hill
Of course I was hurt
But then I started to think
It shouldn't hurt me to be free
It's what I really need
To pull myself together
But if it's so good being free
Would you mind telling me
Why I don't know what to do with myself
There's a bar by the dock
Where I found myself
Drinking with this man
He offered me a cigarette
And I accepted
'Cause it's been a very long time
As it burned 'till the end
I thought of the boy
No one could ever forget
It shouldn't hurt me to be free
It's what I really need
To pull myself together
But if it's so good being free
Would you mind telling me
Why I don't know what to do with myself
To pull myself together
But if it's so good being free
Would you mind telling me
Why I don't know what to do with myself
To pull myself together
But if it's so good being free
Would you mind telling me
Why I don't know what to do with myself

All I Need

All I need is a little time,
To get behind this sun and cast my weight,
All I need is a peace of this mind,
Then I can celebrate.

All in all there's something to give,
All in all there's something to do,
All in all there's something to live,
With you ...

All I need is a little sign,
To get behind this sun and cast this weight of mine,
All I need is the place to find,
And there I'll celebrate.

All in all there's something to give,
All in all there's something to do,
All in all there's something to live,
With you ...

Playground Love

I'm a high school lover, and you're my favorite flavor
Love is all, all my soul
You're my Playground Love

Yet my hands are shaking
I feel my body remains, themes no matter, I'm on fire
On the playground, love.

You're the piece of gold the flushes all my soul.
Extra time, on the ground.
You're my Playground Love.

Anytime, anyway,
You're my Playground Love.

I'm so tired, of playing
Playing with this bow and arrow
Gonna give my heart away
Leave it to the other girls to play
For I've been a temptress too long

Just. .

Give me a reason to love you
Give me a reason to be ee, a woman
I just wanna be a woman

From this time, unchained
We're all looking at a different picture
Thru this new frame of mind
A thousand flowers could bloom
Move over, and give us some room

Give me a reason to love you
Give me a reason to be ee, a woman
I just wanna be a woman

So don't you stop, being a man
Just take a little look from our side when you can
Sow a little tenderness
No matter if you cry
Give me a reason to love you
Give me a reason to be ee, a woman
Its all I wanna be is all woman

For this is the beginning of forever and ever

Its time to move over

Little Earthquakes (1991)
Winter

Snow can wait, I forgot my mittens
Wipe my nose, get my new boots on
I get a little warm in my heart when I think of winter
I put my hand in my father's glove

I run off where the drifts get deeper
Sleeping beauty trips me with a frown
I hear a voice 'You must learn to stand up for yourself
cause I can't always be around'

He says when you gonna make up your mind
When you gonna love you as much as I do
When you gonna make up your mind
Cause things are gonna change so fast
All the white horses are still in bed
I tell you that I'll always want you near
You say that things change my dear

Boys get discovered as winter melts
Flowers competing for the sun
Years go by and I'm here still waiting
Withering where some snowman was

Mirror mirror where's the crystal palace
but I only can see myself
Skating around the truth who I am
but I know, dad, the ice is getting thin

When you gonna make up your mind
When you gonna love you as much as I do
When you gonna make up your mind
Cause things are gonna change so fast
All the white horses are still in bed
I tell you that I'll always want you near
You say that things change my dear

Hair is grey and the fires are burning
So many dreams on the shelf
You say I wanted you to be proud
I always wanted that myself

When you gonna make up your mind
When you gonna love you as much as I do
When you gonna make up your mind
Cause things are gona change so fast
All the white horses have gone ahead
I tell you that I'll always want you near
You say that things change my dear

Never change

All the white horses

Snakeface

Not another drive-in movie
You know you can't sit still
Move me
Snake Snake
Face out an open window
Water in my eyes
Beat me to it
Meet me here next time
One more button undone
You talk too loud I'm talking to you
Talk it into the ground
Move me
Snake Snake
Face out an open window
Fire in my eyes
Beat me to it
Meet me here next time
One more button undone
Next week I'll be a lousy liar
Next time I'll say when
You move me




Plumb - Damaged

Dreaming comes so easily
'Cause it's all that I've ever know
True love is a fairy tale
I'm damaged, so how would I know

I'm scared and I'm alone
I'm ashamed
And I need for you to know

I didn't say all the things that I wanted to say
And you can't take back what you've
taken away
'Cause I feel you, I feel you near me

I didn't say all the things that I wanted to say
And you can't take back what you've
taken away
'Cause I feel you, I feel you near me

Healing comes so painfully
And it chills to the bone
Will anyone get close to me?
I'm damaged, as I'm sure you know

There's mending for my soul
An ending to this fear
Forgiveness for a man who was stronger
I was just a little girl, but I can't go back




AIMEE MANN – GHOST WORLD

Finals blew, I barely knew
my graduation speech
and with college out of reach
if I can't find a job I'm left with Dad and Myrtle Beach


So, I'm bailing this town--or
tearing it down--or
probably more like hanging around
Everyone I know is acting weird
or way too cool
they hang out by the pool
so I just read a lot and ride my bike around the school


Yeah, I'm bailing this town--or
tearing it down—or

probably more like hanging around

And all that I need now
is someone with the brains and the know-how
to tell me what I want..
anyhow
12th of June, a gibbous moon
is this the longest day?
I walked down to the bay
and jumped off of the dock and watched the summer waste away


Yeah, I'm bailing this town--or
tearing it down--or
probably more like hanging around

That song's on the game Tony Hawk 3.

An awesome song that's out right now is "Somewhere Out There" by Our Lady Peace.

"Somewhere Out There"

Last time I talked to you,
you were lonely and out of place.

You were looking down on me,
lost out in space.

Laid underneath the stars,
strung out and feeling brave.

Watch the riddles glow,
watch them float away.

Down here in the atmosphere,
garbage and city lights,
you gotta save your tired soul,
you gotta save our lives.

Turn on the radio,
to find you on sattellite,
I'm waiting for the sky to fall,
I'm waiting for a sign.

All we are is all so far.

You're falling back to me,
the star that I can't see.
I know you're out there,
somewhere out there.

You're falling out of reach,
defying gravity,
I know you're out there,
somewhere out there.

Hope you remember me,
when you're homesick and need a change.
I miss your purple hair,
I miss the way you taste.

I know you'll come back someday,
on a bed of nails awake.
I'm praying that you don't burn out,
or fade away.

All we are is all so far

You're falling back to me,
the star that I can't see.
I know you're out there,
somewhere out there.

You're falling out of reach,
defying gravity,
I know you're out there,
somewhere out there.

You're falling back to me,
the star that I can't see.
I know you're out there, oh.
You're falling out of reach,
defying gravity....

I know you're out there,
somewhere out there.

You're falling back to me,
the star that I can't see.
I know you're out there,
somewhere out there.

You're falling out of reach,
defying gravity,
I know you're out there,
somewhere out there.

You're falling back to me.

Well I know,
I know.

You're falling out of reach.

I know...

Led Zeppelin -- "Fool in the Rain"

Well there's a light in your eye that keeps shining
Like a star that can't wait for the night
I hate to think I've been blinded baby
Why can't I see you tonight?

And the warmth of your smile starts a-burnin'
And the thrill of your touch gives me fright
And I'm shaking so much, really yearning
Why don't you show up, make it all right?
Yeah, it's all right.

And if you promised you'd love so completely
and you said you would always be true
You swore that you would never leave me, baby:
What ever happened to you?

And you thought it was only in movies
As you wish all your dreams would come true
It ain't the first time believe me, baby
I'm standin here feeling blue
Yeah I'm blue

Now I will stand in the rain on the corner
I'll watch the people go shuffling downtown
Another ten minutes no longer
And then I'm turning around

The clock on the wall's moving slower
My heart it sinks to the ground
And the storm that I thought would blow over
Clouds the light of the love that I found

Now my body is starting to quiver
And the palms of my hands getting wet
I've got no reason to doubt you baby,
It's all a terrible mess

I'll run in the rain till I'm breathless
When I'm breathless I'll run till I drop, hey
The thoughts of a fool's kind of careless
I'm just a fool waiting on the wrong block, oh yeah
Light of the love that I found...

[todd philip]

stop right now, thank you very much, i need somebody with the human touch, hay you always on the run, better stop right now, better have some fun.:D

Bother

I wish I was..too dead to cry
The self-affliction fades
Stones to throw at my creator
Masochist to which I cater

You don't need to bother
I don't need to breathe
I'll keep slipping farther
But once I'm done
I won't let go till it bleeds

I wish I was..too dead to care
If indeed I cared at all
Never had a voice to protest
So you fed me **** to digest

I wish I had a reason
My flaws are open seasoned
For this I gave up trying
One good time deserves my dying

You don't need to bother
I don't need to be
I'll keep slipping farther
But once I'm done
I won't let go till it bleeds

I wish I died..instead of lived
A zombie hides my face
Shelf forgotten with it's memories
Dire is left with cryptic entries

And you don't need to bother
I don't need to be
I'll keep slipping farther
But once I'm done
I won't let go till it bleeds

You don't need to bother!
I don't need to be!
I'll keep slipping farther
But once I'm gone (Once I am goooooooone!)
I'll never look down my disease...

[Phantomias2k]

i still recall the taste of my tears.
echoing your voice just like the ringing in my ears.
my favorite dreams of you still wash ashore.
scraping through my head 'till i don't want to sleep anymore.

[Chorus:]
come on tell me.
make this all go away.
you make this all go away.
i'm down to just to thing.
and i'm starting to scare myself.
make this all go away.

you make this all go way.

i just want something.
i just want something i can never have
you always were the one to show me how
back then i couldn't do the things that i can do now.
this is slowly take me apart.
grey would be the color if i had a heart.
i just want something i can never have.
in this place it seems like such a same.
though it all looks different now,
i know it's still the same
everywhere i look you're all i see.
just a fading ****ing reminder of who i used to be.

[Chorus]

i just want something.
i just want something i can never have
i just want something i can never have
think i know what you meant.
that night on my bed.
still picking at this scab
i wish you were dead.
you sweet and perry ellis.
just stains on my sheets.

[Rogue]

Well I won't back down, no I won't back down
You could stand me up at the gates of Hell
But I won't back down

Gonna stand my ground, won't be turned around
And I'll keep this world from draggin' me down
Gonna stand my ground and I won't back down

Hey baby, there ain't no easy way out
Hey I will stand my ground
And I won't back down

Well I know what's right, I got just one life
In a world that keeps on pushin' me around
But I'll stand my ground and I won't back down

Hey baby there ain't no easy way out
Hey I will stand my ground
And I won't back down
No, I won't back down

[Rogue]

I've dealt with my ghosts and faced all my demons
Finally content with a past I regret
I've found you find strength in your moments of weakness
For once I'm at peace with myself
I've been burdened with blame, trapped in the past for too long
I'm movin' on

I've lived in this place and I know all the faces
Each one is different but they're always the same
They mean no harm but it's time that I face it
They'll never allow me to change
But I never dreamed home would end up where I don't belong
I'm movin' on

I'm movin' on
At last I can see life has been patiently waiting for me
And I know there's no guarentee's, but I'm not alone
There comes a time in everyone's life
When all you can see are the years passing by
And I have made up my mind that those days are gone

I sold what I could and packed what I couldn't
Stopped to fill up on my way out of town
I've loved like I should but lived like
I shouldn't
I had to lose everything to find out
Maybe forgiveness will find me somewhere down this road
I'm movin' on

I'm movin' on
I'm movin' on

[thebtskink]

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 sixteen 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.

Delerium---Silence
(feat. Sarah McLachlan)

Give me release
Witness me, I am outside

Give me peace
Heaven holds a sense of wonder
And I wanted to believe
that I'd get caught up
when the rage in me subsides

Passion chokes the flower until she cries no more
Possessing all the beauty hungry still for more

Heaven holds a sense of wonder
And I wanted to believe that I'd get caught up

When the rage in me subsides
In this white wave
I am sinking
In this silence

In this white wave ... in this silence ...
I believe I can't help this longing ...
comfort me I can't hold it all in ...
if you won't let me ...

Heaven holds a sense of wonder
And I wanted to believe that I'd get caught up

When the rage in me subsides
In this white wave
I am sinking
In this silence

In this white wave ...
in this silence I believe I have seen you ...
in this white wave you are silent
You are breathing in this white wave ...
I am free

Kidney Thieves---Before I'm Dead

Moon hangs around
A blade over my head reminds me
What to do before I'm dead
Night consumes light
The honesty I dread
Reminds me what to do before I'm dead

To see you
To touch you

Epochs fly, reminds me
What I hide, reminds me
The desert skies
Cracks the spies
Reminds me what I never tried
The ocean wide salted red
Reminds me what to do before I'm dead

To see you
To touch you
To feel you
To tell you

The sun reclines.....remind me
The desert skies....remind me
The ocean wide salted red
Reminds me

Maybe I should get some help

I can't stay on your life support
There's a shortage in the switch
I can't stay on your morphine
'Cause it's making me itch
I said I tried to call the nurse again
But she's being a little *****
I'll think I'll get out of here

Where I can run just as fast as I can
To the middle of nowhere
To the middle of my frustrated fears

And I swear you're just like a pill
Instead of making me better
You keep making me ill
You keep making me ill

Amarillo Highway by Terry Allan - as sung by Robert Earl Keen

I'm a high straight in Plainview
a side bet in Idalou
And a fresh deck in Mobile
Yeah, some call me high handed
Some call me low handed
But I'm holdin' what I am, the wheel

Chorus:
Cause I'm a panhandlin', manhandlin'
Post holin' high rollin' dust bowlin' Daddy
I ain't got no blood in my veins
I just got them four lanes
Of hard Amarillo Highway

I don't wear no Stetson
But I'm willin' to bet son
That I'm as big a Texan as you are
There's a girl in her bare feet
Assleep on the back seat
And the trunk's full of Shiner Bock and Lone Star

CHORUS

Gonna hop outta bed
Pop a pill in my head
Bust a hub for the Golden Spread
Under a blue sky
Gonna stuff my hide
Behind some Power Glide
Get some southern fried back in my hide

CHORUS

As Close as I'll ever get to heaven
Is makin' speed up old eighty-seven
Of that hard Amarillo Highway

Travelin' Soldier - by Bruce Robison
recorded by Bruce Robison, The Dixie Chicks, Ty England.

Two days past eighteen
He was waiting for the bus in his army greens
Sat down in a booth in a cafe there
Gave his order to a girl with a bow in her hair
He's a little shy so she gives him a smile
And he said would you mind sittin' down for a while
And talking to me,
I'm feeling a little low
She said I'm off in an hour and I know where we can go

So they went down and they sat on the pier
He said I bet you got a boyfriend but I don't care
I got no one to send a letter to
Would you mind if I sent one back here to you

Chorus:
I cried
Never gonna hold the hand of another guy
Too young for him they told her
Waitin' for the love of a travelin' soldier
Over love will never end
Waitin' for the soldier to come back again
Never more to be alone when the letter said
My soldier's coming home

So the letters came from an army camp
In California then Vietnam
And he told her of his heart
It might be love and all of the things he was so scared of
He said when it's getting kinda rough over here
I think of that day sittin' down at the pier
And I close my eyes and see your pretty smile
Don't worry but I won't be able to write for awhile

[Chorus]

One Friday night at a football game
The Lord's Prayer said and the Anthem sang
A man said folks would you bow your heads
For a list of local Vietnam dead
Crying all alone under the stands
Was a piccolo player in the marching band
And one name read and nobody really cared
But a pretty little girl with a bow in her hair

[chorus]

[Tardumb]

Yesterday...
All my troubles seemed so faaaar awaay
Now it looks as though they're here to stay
Oh, I believe, in yesterday...

Suddenly, I'm not half the man I used to be
There's a shadow hanging over me
Oh yesterday, can turn and leave

Why she, had to go
I don't know, she wouldn't say
I said, something wrong, now I long for yesterdaaaay...

Yesterday...
Love was such an easy game to play
Now I need a place to hide away
Oh I believe, in yesterday

Why she, had to go
I don't know, she wouldn't say
I said, something wrong, now I long for yesterdaaaay...

Yesterday...
Love was such an easy game to play
Now I need a place to hide away
Oh I believe, in yesterday....

Never had a Dream come true- S Club(7)

Everybody's got something/
They had to leave behind/
One regret from yesterday/
That just seems to grow with time

There's no use looking back/
A wondering/
How it could been now/
Or mighta been

Oh, this I know/
But still I can't find a way to let you go

Chorus:
I never had a dream come true
Till the day that I found you
Even though I pretend that I moved on
You'll always be my baby

I never found the words to say
You're the one I think about each day
And I know no matter where life takes me to
A part of me will alays be with you.

(Can't remember the rest of the song...)

[Rogue]

I used to be the kind of guy
Who'd never let you look inside
I'd smile when I was crying
I had nothing but a life to loose
Thought I had a lot to proof
In my life, there's no denying

Goodbye to all my yesterdays
Goodbye, so long, I'm on my way

I've had enough of cryin'
Bleedin', sweatin', dyin'
Hear me when I say
Gonna live my life everyday
I'm gonna touch the sky
And I spread these wings and fly
I ain't here to play
I'm gonna live my life everyday

Strange, everybody's feeling strange
Never gonna be the same
Makes you wonder how the world keeps turning
Life, learning how to live my life
Learning how to pick my fights
Take my shots while I'm still burning

Goodbye to all those rainy nights
Goodbye, so long, I'm moving on

I've had enough of cryin'
Bleedin', sweatin', dyin'
Hear me when I say
Gonna live my life everyday
I'm gonna touch the sky
And I spread these wings and fly
I ain't here to play
I'm gonna live my life everyday

There ain't nothing gonna get in my way
Everyday

Goodbye, so long, I'm moving on

I've had enough of cryin'
Bleedin', sweatin', dyin'
Hear me when I say
Gonna live my life everyday
I'm gonna touch the sky
And I spread these wings and fly
I ain't here to play
I'm gonna live my life everyday

I, oh I, oh I, I'm gonna live my life everyday
I (gonna touch the sky), oh I (spread these wings and fly), oh I
I'm gonna live my life everyday

This is a song by Bob Dylan, recorded in 1983, and like the masterpiece "Blind Willie McTell", it was left off of the album INFIDELS, turning what may have been one of the best albums of the eighties, into just another bad Dylan album made in the 80's. Its about the perils of vanity and the end of the world and that good stuff, oh and it can be found, along with "Blind Willie McTell", on the Bootleg Volume 1-3 box set for 35-40 bucks. Here are the lyrics:

Like the lion tears the flesh off of a man
So can a woman who passes herself off as a male
They sang "Danny Boy" at his funeral and the Lord's Prayer
Preacher talking 'bout Christ betrayed
It's like the earth just opened and swallowed him up
He reached too high, was thrown back to the ground
You know what they say about bein' nice to the right people on the way up
Sooner or later you gonna meet them comin' down

Well, there ain't no goin' back when your foot of pride come down
Ain't no goin' back

Hear ya got a brother named James, don't forget faces or names
Sunken cheeks and his blood is mixed
He looked straight into the sun and said revenge is mine
But he drinks, and drinks can be fixed
Sing me one more song, about ya love me to the moon and the stranger
And your fall by the sword love affair with Erroll Flynn
in these times of compassion when conformity's in fashion
Say one more stupid thing to me before the final nail is driven in.

Well, there ain't no goin' back when your foot of pride come down
Ain't no goin' back

There's a retired businessman named Red, cast down from heaven and he's out of his head
He feeds off of everyone that he can touch
He said he only deals in cash or sells tickets to a plane crash
He's not somebody that you play around with much
Miss Delilah is his, a Philistine is what she is
She'll do wondrous works with your fate
Feed you coconut bread, spice buns in your bed
If you don't mind sleepin' with your head face down in a grave.

Well, there ain't no goin' back when your foot of pride come down
Ain't no goin' back

Well they'll choose a man for you to meet tonight
You'll play the fool and learn how to walk through doors
How to enter into the gates of paradise
No, how to carry a burden too heavy to be yours
Yeah, from the stage they'll be tryin' to get water outta rocks
A whore will pass the hat, collect a hundred grand and say thanks
They like to take all this money from sin, build big universities to study in
Sing "Amazing Grace" all the way to the Swiss banks

Well, there ain't no goin' back when your foot of pride come down
Ain't no goin' back

They got some beautiful people out there, man
They can be a terror to your mind and show you how to hold your tongue
They got mystery written all over their forehead
They kill babies in the crib and say only the good die young
They don't believe in mercy
Judgment on them is something that you'll never see
They can exalt you up or bring you down main route
Turn you into anything that they want you to be

Well, there ain't no goin' back when your foot of pride come down
Ain't no goin' back

Yes, I guess I loved him too
I can still see him in my mind climbin' that hill
Did he make it to the top, well he probably did and dropped
Struck down by the strength of the will
Ain't nothin' left here partner, just the dust of a plague that has left this whole town afraid
From now on, this'll be where you're from
Let the dead bury the dead. Your time will come
Let hot iron blow as he raised the shade

Well, there ain't no goin' back when your foot of pride come down
Ain't no goin' back

[Rogue]

And so I can't ignore, my heart is bruised and sore
My sanctuary has been raked, been raked
My soul is coloured red, from all the love I bled
My crucifixion is complete, complete
Now I need a substitute for the love that you gave
Now I just can't be saved
And there is no salvation for me, yeah
My sin was to touch
But I wanted it too much
Now I know that I've fallen from grace, yeah
No matter how I try, I just can't justify
My absolution is denied, denied
And so I'm left to burn, my body craves and yearns
The beast inside me is alive, alive
Now I need a substitute for the love that you gave
Now I just can't be saved
And there is no salvation for me, yeah
My sin was to touch
But I wanted it too much
Now I know that I've fallen from grace, yeah

Actually it wasn't her, it was someone different. But he said she loved Drain STH and suggested a few songs to me thinking I could identify with the lyrics. :)

I bet you they wont play this song on the radio

It's not that it's (*&^% or &^%$( controversial
Just that the &#%ing words are awfully strong

You can't say $^%$* on the radio
Or ^%*& or *^%*^ or (&^$%^
You can't even say I'd like to ^%$% you someday
Unless you're a doctor with a very large %$%^%^

Oh God said to Abraham, "Kill me a son"
Abe says, "Man, you must be puttin' me on"
God say, "No." Abe say, "What?"
God say, "You can do what you want Abe, but
The next time you see me comin' you better run"
Well Abe says, "Where do you want this killin' done?"
God says, "Out on Highway 61."

Well Georgia Sam he had a bloody nose
Welfare Department they wouldn't give him no clothes
He asked poor Howard where can I go
Howard said there's only one place I know
Sam said tell me quick man I got to run
Ol' Howard just pointed with his gun
And said that way down on Highway 61.

Well Mack the Finger said to Louie the King
I got forty red white and blue shoe strings
And a thousand telephones that don't ring
Do you know where I can get rid of these things
And Louie the King said let me think for a minute son
And he said yes I think it can be easily done
Just take everything down to Highway 61.

Now the fifth daughter on the twelfth night
Told the first father that things weren't right
My complexion she said is much too white
He said come here and step into the light he says hmm you're right
Let me tell the second mother this has been done
But the second mother was with the seventh son
And they were both out on Highway 61.

Now the rovin' gambler he was very bored
He was tryin' to create a next world war
He found a promoter who nearly fell off the floor
He said I never engaged in this kind of thing before
But yes I think it can be very easily done
We'll just put some bleachers out in the sun
And have it on Highway 61.

Highway 61 Revisited, by Bob Dylan, from the album Highway 61 Revisited, 1965.

Bother

Wish I was too dead to cry
My self-affliction fades
Stones to throw at my creator
Masochists to which I cater
You don't need to bother;
I don't need to be
I'll keep slipping farther
But once I hold on,
I won't let go 'til it bleeds

Wish I was too dead to care
If indeed I cared at all
Never had a voice to protest
So you fed me **** to digest
I wish I had a reason;
my flaws are open season
For this, I gave up trying
One good turn deserves my dying

You don't need to bother;
I don't need to be
I'll keep slipping farther
But once I hold on,
I won't let go 'til it bleeds

(Solo: Corey)

Wish I'd died instead of lived
A zombie hides my face
Shell forgotten
with its memories
Diaries left
with cryptic entries

And you don't need to bother;
I don't need to be
I'll keep slipping farther
But once I hold on,
I won't let go 'til it bleeds

You don't need to bother;
I don't need to be
I'll keep slipping farther
But once I hold on…
I'll never live down my deceit

FANTASY by EARTH, WIND & FIRE

Every man has a place. In his heart, there's a space,
and the world can't erase his fantasies.
Take a ride in the sky, on our ship fantasii,
all you dreams will come true right away.
And we will live together, until the twelfth of never
Our voices will ring forever, as one.

(musical break)

Every thought, there's a dream, rushing by in a stream,
bringing life to the kingdom of doing.
Take a ride in the sky, on our ship fantasii
all your dreams will come true miles away.

Our voices will ring together, until the twelfth of never,
we all will live love forever, as one.

Come to see victory, in the land called fantasy,
loving life for you and me to behold, to your soul is extacy.
You will find, other kind, that has been in search of you,
many lives has brought you to recognize, it's your life now in review. Oooh-ooh.

And as you stay, for the play, fantasy has in store for you,
other lives will see you through, it's your day, shining day, all your
dreams come true.

Come to see, victory, in the land called fantasy,
loving life for you, and me, to behold, to your soul, is extacy.

You will find, other kind, that has been in search of you, many lives has brought you to recognize, it's your life now in review.

The Man Who Sold The World

We passed upon the stairs, we spoke of was and when
Although i wasn't there, he said i washis friend
Which came as some surprise ispoke into his eyes
I thought you died alone, a long long time ago

Oh no, not me
I never lost control
You're face to face
With the man who sold the world

I laughed and shook his hand, i made my way back home
I searched for form and land, for years and years i roamed
I gazed a gazley stare at all the millions here
We must have died alone, a long long time ago

Who knows, not me
We never lost control
You're face to face
With the man who sold the world

So i can sigh eternally

I'm so tired i can't sleep

It's too late to cry I love you.

The wind still blowing, my heart still aching

One side of my eyes see tomorrow,
And the other one see yesterday
I hope I could sleep in the cradle of your love, again

Cry for me, somebody, with dry eyes

*The real folk blues
I just want to feel a real sorrow
It's not bad a life in the muddy river
If life is once

Hopeless hope, and the chance with traps
What is right, or wrong
It's like a both side of a coin

How long I must live till I release?

I just want to feel a real pleasure
All that glitters is not gold

"Love Minus Zero/No Limit", by Bob Dylan, from the album "Bringing it All Back Home", 1964

My love she speaks like silence,
Without ideals or violence,
She doesn't have to say she's faithful,
Yet she's true, like ice, like fire.
People carry roses,
Make promises by the hours,
My love she laughs like the flowers,
Valentines can't buy her.

In the dime stores and bus stations,
People talk of situations,
Read books, repeat quotations,
Draw conclusions on the wall.
Some speak of the future,
My love she speaks softly,
She knows there's no success like failure
And that failure's no success at all.

The cloak and dagger dangles,
Madams light the candles.
In ceremonies of the horsemen,
Even the pawn must hold a grudge.
Statues made of match sticks,
Crumble into one another,
My love winks, she does not bother,
She knows too much to argue or to judge.

The bridge at midnight trembles,
The country doctor rambles,
Bankers' nieces seek perfection,
Expecting all the gifts that wise men bring.
The wind howls like a hammer,
The night blows cold and rainy,
My love she's like some raven
At my window with a broken wing.

"Live for the Moment" by Monster Magnet. Matt Hardy's WWE theme, and my adopted theme as well! :cool:

There's a little pile of ashes where my old life used to be.
Credit cards and memories all dumped into the sea.
Well this ain't no time for bulls*** as I fly into the sun.
Well you can't trust anybody if you can't trust number one.

(chorus)Well the man tells me my future, is not so far away.
To get ready for tomorrow, I gotta waste my whole today.
My inner light knows better, it's what I wanna hear.
Just like a diamond bullet where it's crystal (crystal) clear.

Oh yeeeeeah!
Wooooo!

I can slap a tornado,
I can dry up a sea, yeah.
When I live for the moment,
There ain't no "ain't no" in me

You'll never find your pleasure if you worry 'bout your pain,
And your precious little details are stretchin' out my brain.
Well you spin around and bite your nails, now let me tell you son,
That you can't trust anybody if you can't trust number one.

(chorus)

Now don't you sell me no future, yeah.
Don't you sell me your luck.
I ain't punchin' your number,
You couldn't pay me enough.

I ain't buyin' no future when the past is so far away.
I ain't buyin' no future when the past is so far away.
I ain't buyin' no future when the past is so far away.
I ain't buyin' no future when the past is so far away, yeah.

Don't Ask The Reasons Why - Restless Heart

Alone, on your own
No way to see the end
But here's where the road begins

In time, I know you'll find
Whatever you're searching for
All of your dreams and more

But right now you're feeling
Lost and lonely
Crazy to even try
Just listen to what
You're heart keeps saying
And don't ask the reason why

You've known, all along
It won't be an easy climb
But nothing can change your mind

And now, here you stand
Your destiny's calling you
You know what you've got to do

And whenever you're feeling
Lost and lonely, crazy to even try
Just listen to what your heart keeps saying
And don't ask the reasons why

Don't you know I believe in you
I'll be there when your dream comes true
And wherever you go you'll always know
My love is by your side

And whenever you're feeling
Lost and lonely, crazy to even try
Just listen to what your heart keeps saying
And don't ask the reasons why
Remember my love is there beside you
You've got to believe it's true
Just listen to what your heart keeps saying
And don't ask the reasons why...

Don't ask the reasons why

I can't think of anyone this fits better than Rogue....My hands-down favorite track from WWE Anthology, called simply "Fight."

I
I know your every move
I've heard your every word
I know you well.

And I've
got nothing left to prove
Your threats I find absurd
I am your hell!

(Chourus)Every time you think that I'm done
I come back stronger! (come back strongeeer)
And every time you think that you've got me
I will fight you!
And I will put you in the ground!!!

I will fight
till there's nothing left
till my legs are gone
you won't forget me.

And I will fight
till my final breath
Just to see you fall
I'll make you fear me

Chourus

I will fight....
Till my final breath...
Till my legs are gone...
You won't forget me. (forget me)

This isn't my all-time fave, but it was from (what I think) one great album.

Let Her Cry

She sits alone by a lamp post
Trying to find a thought that's escaped her mind
She says dad's the one I love the most
But Stipe's not far behind
She never lets me in
Only tells me where she's been
When she's had too much to drink?
I say that I don't care
I just run my hands through her dark hair
Then I pray to God you gotta Help me fly away
And just let her cry
If the tears fall down like rain
Let her sing
If it eases all her pain
Let her go
Let her walk right out on me
And if the sun comes up tomorrow
Let her be
Let her be
This morning I woke up alone
Found a note standing by the phone
Saying baby, maybe I'll be back someday
I wanted to look for you
You walked in I didn't know just what I should do
So I sat back down and had a beer and felt sorry for myself
Saying let her cry
If the tears fall down like rain
Let her sing
If it eases all her pain
Let her go
Let her walk right out on me And if the sun comes up tomorrow Let her
be Let her be
Let her cry
If the tears fall down like rain
Let her sing
If it eases all her pain
Let her go
Let her walk right out on me
And if the sun comes up tomorrow
Let her be
Oh... Last night I tried to leave
Cried so much I could not believe
She was the same girl I fell in love with long ago
She went in the back to get high
I sat down on my couch and cried yellin'
Oh momma, please help me
Won't you hold my hand and...
Let her cry
If the tears fall down like rain
Let her sing
If it eases all her pain
Let her go
Let her walk right out on me
And if the sun comes up tomorrow
Let her be
Let her cry
If the tears fall down like rain
Let her sing
If it eases all her pain
Let her go
Let her walk right out on me
And if the sun comes up tomorrow
Let her be
Oh, let her be

I Will Talk and Hollywood Will Listen - Robbie Williams

I wouldn't be so alone
The they knew my name in every home
Kevin Spacey would call on the phone
But I'd be too busy
Come back to the old five and dime
Cameron Diaz give me a sign
I'd make you smile all the time
Your conversation would compliment mine

I will talk and Hollywood will listen
See them bow and my every word
Mr Spielberg look just what you're missing
Doesn't that seem a litte obsurd
Bow at my every word

Buy up the rights to my book
Live on a ranch from what the box office took
I'll go and visit the set
They'll call me their saviour
All other people will scorn the celebrity who (?)
Lives on the moon
But, I'll be back home in June
To promote the sequel

I will talk and Hollywood will listen
See them bow and my every word
Mr Spielberg look just what you're missing
Doesn't that seem a litte obsurd
Bow at my every word

Everytime you lick my hand
my heart begins to kick
towards the fire we start to dance
burning with each kiss
Tears like a virgin,
the first time from your eyes
you turn out to be
all I desire

CHORUS:
when i want love, i call on you
when i want love, i run to you
you're something more than a sweet romance
I just get one taste of you
bang go the bells

Your dreams have become as mine,
mine have become yours
like two ships we sail the night
down to the distant shore
eyes of blue, velvet touch
she's got what i want
'round and round on the wheeels of love
drivin me right outta control
CHORUS
and all is well
when i look in those eyes
bang go the bells
yeah you got something baby
I just can't deny, bang go the bells

GUITAR SOLO

when i want love, i call on you
when i want want love, i run to you

Hey you on public assistance
Why don't you get a job?
Sell some dope and buy some pride
It's the only thing you couldn't rob

Socioparasite

How does it feel to live for free?
Get off society's back
Skells like you allowed to live
You wonder why we're taxed

Socioparasite

Getting ****ed up on Classon Avenue
Smoking crack and drinking booze
Spike in your arm
No money for food
But there's plenty of gas in your BMW

There's a dopewhore waiting at home
Dealing your **** on the chemophone
Poor Tawana gets born with a birth defect
But it only increases your welfare check

Been doing some thinking and I have an answer
To arrest the spreading cancer
Send you back to where you came from
Get the **** rid of you (sub)human scum

If you don't pay taxes you shouldn't vote
So get in line and get back on the boat
I'd love to tear down all those projects
Kiss my ass home relief reject

Waste of life
You're a waste of life

Blade 2 (Blade II)
soundtrack lyrics


Mos Def & Massive Attack - I Against I
I-ya,
I against I,
flesh of my flesh,
and mind of my mind,
two of a kind but one won't survive,
my images reflect in the enemies eye,
and his images reflect in mine the same time,

I-ya, I-ya,
I against I,
flesh of my flesh,
and mind of my mind,
two of a kind but one won't survive,

Right here is where the end gon' start at,
conflict, contact 'n' combat,
fighters stand where the land is marked at,
settle the dispute about who the livest,
3 word answer,
Whoever survive this,
only one of us can ride forever,
so you and I cant ride together,
can't live or cant die together,
all we can do is collide together,
so I skillfully apply the pressure,
won't stop until I'm forever... one!

A door step where death never come,
spread across time til my time never done,
and I'm never done,
walk tall, why ever run?
when they move if I ever come?
bad man never fret the war, tell'em come
general we have the stock, the mad fire burn

I-ya,
I against I,
flesh of my flesh,
and mind of my mind,
two of a kind but one won't survive,
my images reflect in the enemies eye,
and his images reflect in mine the same time,

I-ya, I-ya,
I against I,
flesh of my flesh,
and mind of my mind,
two of a kind but one won't survive,
survive (x16)

Reign supreme in your U-N-I,
V-E-R-S-E with the sharpness,
narrow row building no space for partners,
no space for drivers, no space for walkers,
no space regardless,
your on my path then get off it,
hardheaded and unresponsive,
get they lives put on target with harshness,
come with the canons sparkin' they darken,
who am i? one man squadron,
Ma stir the fire this time that'd snatch your tomorrow,
the thousand yard spear that'll pierce through your armor,
you can get it on right now if you want to,
but when ya front 9 get marched through,
I warned you,
You know who forever belong to,

I-ya, I-ya
I against I,
flesh of my flesh,
and mind of my mind,
two of a kind but one won't survive,
my images reflect in the enemies eye,
and his images reflect in mine the same time,

I-ya, I-ya,
I against I,
flesh of my flesh,
and mind of my mind,
two of a kind but one won't survive,
my images reflect in the enemies eye,
and his images reflect in mine, survive
survive (x16)

I absolutely love this song!

3 Doors Down- When I'm Gone


There's another world inside of me
That you may never see
There's secrets in this life
That I can't hide
Somewhere in this darkness
There's a light that I can't find
Maybe it's too far away...
Maybe I'm just blind...
Maybe I'm just blind...

So hold me when I'm here
Right me when I'm wrong
Hold me when I'm scared
And love me when I'm gone
Everything I am
And everything in me
wants to be the one
You wanted me to be
I'll never let you down
Even if I could
I'd give up everything
If only for your good
So hold me when I'm here
Right me when I'm wrong
You can hold me when I'm scared
You won't always be there
So love me when I'm gone
Love me when I'm gone...

When your education x-ray
Can not see under my skin
I won't tell you a damn thing
That I could not tell my friends
Roaming through this darkness
I'm alive but I'm alone
Part of me is fighting this
But part of me is gone

So hold me when I'm here
Right me when I'm wrong
Hold me when I'm scared
And love me when I'm gone
Everything I am
And everything in me
wants to be the one
You wanted me to be
I'll never let you down
Even if I could
I'd give up everything
If only for your good
So hold me when I'm here
Right me when I'm wrong
You can hold me when I'm scared
You won't always be there
So love me when I'm gone

Maybe I'm just blind...

So hold me when I'm here
Right me when I'm wrong
Hold me when I'm scared
And love me when I'm gone
Everything I am
And everything in me
wants to be the one
You wanted me to be
I'll never let you down
Even if I could
I'd give up everything
If only for your good
So hold me when I'm here
Right me when I'm wrong
You can hold me when I'm scared
You won't always be there
So love me when I'm gone
Love me when I'm gone...

Love me when I'm gone
When I'm Gone
When I'm Gone
When I'm Gone

Pete Townshend - Let My Love Open The Door

When people keep repeating
That you'll never fall in love
When everybody keeps retreating
But you can't seem to get enough

Let my love open the door
Let my love open the door
Let my love open the door
To your heart

When everything feels all over
When everybody seems unkind
I'll give you a four leaf clover
Take all the worry out of your mind

Let my love open the door
Let my love open the door
Let my love open the door
To your heart

I have the only key to your heart
I can stop you falling apart
Try today, you'll find this way
Come on and give me a chance to say
Let my love open the door
It's all I'm living for
Release yourself from misery
There's only one thing gonna set you free
That's my love

Let my love open the door
Let my love open the door
Let my love open the door
To your heart

When tragedy befalls you
Don't let it drag you down
Love can cure your problems
You're so lucky I'm around

Let my love open the door
Let my love open the door
Let my love open the door
To your heart

[JBond]

I had some of Let's See Action in my signature awhile ago ;)

[sabin26]

Three other songs that I love to listen and sing along to:

"People = ****"

Here we go again mother****er

Come on down and see the idiot right here
too ****ed to beg and not afraid to care
Whats the matter with calamity anyways?
right? get the **** out of my face
understand I cant feel anything
it isn't like I wanna sift through the decay
I feel like a wound
and like I got a ****ing gun against my head
you live when I'm dead

One more time mother****er

Everybody hates me now so **** it
blood's on my face and my hands don't know why,I'm not afraid to cry
but that's none of your business
Whose life is it? Get it? see it? feel it? eat it? spin it around
so I can spit in his face
I wanna leave without a trace
get out, I don't want to die in this place

people=****
people=**** (what you gonna do)
people=**** ( cuz I'm not afraid of you)
people=**** (I'm everything you'll never be)
people=****

It never stops
you can't be everything to everyone

Contagion I'm sittin on the side of satan
what do you want from me?
They never told me the failure I was meant to be
Overdo it, don't tell me you blew it, stop your *****in'
and fight your way through it
I'm not like you
I just **** up

c'mon mother ****er everybody has to die
c'mon mother ****er everybody has to die !!

people=****
people=**** (what you gonna do)
people=**** ( cuz I'm not afraid of you)
people=**** (I'm everything you'll never be)
people=****

"The Heretic Anthem"

8...7...6...6...6...5...4...3...2...1...
I'm a pop star threat and I'm not dead yet
Got a super dred bet with an angel drug head
Like a dead beat winner. I want to be a sinner
An idolized bang for the industry killer.
A hideous man that you don't understand
Throw a suicide party and I'm guaranteed to ****ing snap.
It's evilsonic, It's pornoholic.
Breakdowns, Obscenities, It's all I wanna be.
If You're 555 then I'm 666.
If you're 555 I'm 666.
If you're 555 then I'm 666 (what's it like to be a heretic)
If you're 555 I'm 666. (what's it like to be a heretic)
Everybody's so infatuated
Everybody's so completely sure of what we are
Everybody defamates from miles away
But face to face, they haven't got a thing to say
I bleed for this and I bleed for you
Still you look in my face like I'm sombody new
TOY - Nobody wants anything I've got
Which if fine becuase you're made of
Everything - I'm - NOT!
If You're 555 then I'm 666.
If you're 555 I'm 666.
If you're 555 then I'm 666 (what's it like to be a heretic)
If you're 555 I'm 666. (what's it like to be a heretic)
30 Seconds, 16, 8, 4, lemme tell you why
I haven't the slightest, I'm teaching your brightest
They're listening, clamoring
All the money in the world can't buy me.
GO AHEAD. LIE TO ME.
Tell me again how you're tortured
I wanna know how you followed your orders so well
You're full of ****
You had a dream but this ain't it.
If You're 555 then I'm 666.
If you're 555 I'm 666.
If you're 555 then I'm 666 (what's it like to be a heretic)
If you're 555 I'm 666. (what's it like to be a heretic)

"Wait and Bleed"

I've felt the hate rise up in me...
Kneel down and clear the stone of leaves...
I wander over where you can't see...
Inside my shell, I wait and bleed...

Goodbye!

I wipe it off on tile, the light is brighter this time
Everything is 3D blasphemy
My eyes are red and gold, the hair is standing straight up
This is not the way I pictured me
I can't control my shakes
How the hell did I get here?
Something about this, so very wrong...
I have to laugh out loud, I wish I didn't like this
Is it a dream or a memory?

I've felt the hate rise up in me...
Kneel down and clear the stone of leaves...
I wander over where you can't see...
Inside my shell, I wait and bleed...

Get outta my head cuz I don't need this
Why I didn't I see this?
I'm a victim - Manchurian candidate
I have sinned by just
Makin' my mind up and takin' your breath away

I've felt the hate rise up in me...
Kneel down and clear the stone of leaves...
I wander over where you can't see...
Inside my shell, I wait and bleed...

Goodbye!

You haven't learned a thing
I haven't changed a thing
My flesh was in my bones
The pain was always free

I've felt the hate rise up in me...
Kneel down and clear the stone of leaves...
I wander out where you can't see...
Inside my shell, I wait and bleed...

And it waits for you!

[Steve from Indy]

A lot of good songs listed. It looks like we have some Progressive fans here. Here's my fav:

Band: Kansas
Songwriter: Kerry Livgren
Album: Masque (1975)
Song: The Pinnacle
(9:35)

I have so much to say, and yet I cannot speak
Come and do my bidding now for I have grown too weak
My weary eyes have seen all that life can give
Come to me, O young one, for you I can forgive

I stood where no man goes, and conquered demon foes
With Glory and Passion no longer in fashion
The Hero breaks his blade

Cast the shadow long that I may hide my face
And in this cloak of darkness the world I will embrace
In all that I endure, of one thing I am sure
Knowledge and Reason change like the season
A jester's promenade (promeNOD)

Lying at my feet I see the offering you bring
The mark of Cain is on our faces, borne of suffering
O, I long to hear you say it's not been wrong
I stand before you now, a riddle in my song
The answer is that sweet refrain
Unheard it always will remain
Beyond our reach, beyond our gain

Trapped in life's parade, a king without a crown
In this joy of madness, my smile might seem a frown
With talons wrought of steel, I tore the heart of doom
And in one gleaming moment I saw beyond the tomb
I stood where no man goes, above the din I rose
Life is amusing though we are losing
Drowned in tears of awe

[QUINNtheESKIMO]

I find this rather offensive. This band, Type O Negative, do they make a lot of racist songs? Does this song reflect your own ideas, is that why you posted this garbage?

Skells like you allowed to live
You wonder why we're taxed

Socioparasite

Getting ****ed up on Classon Avenue
Smoking crack and drinking booze
Spike in your arm
No money for food
But there's plenty of gas in your BMW

There's a dopewhore waiting at home
Dealing your **** on the chemophone
Poor Tawana gets born with a birth defect
But it only increases your welfare check

Been doing some thinking and I have an answer
To arrest the spreading cancer
Send you back to where you came from
Get the **** rid of you (sub)human scum

If you don't pay taxes you shouldn't vote
So get in line and get back on the boat
I'd love to tear down all those projects
Kiss my ass home relief reject

Waste of life
You're a waste of life


Type O Negative

I never thought that the black experience could be so eloquently articulated in song form(sarc.). To think of all of the people who died and are still dying in america because of the ignorance of the ones in power. Its stuff like this, or rather this is a product of the very same line of thinking that continues to hold people back in america.

you, welty69, are sub human scum, and so is the band that made this song.

Only A Pawn In Their Game
by Bob Dylan, from the 1963 album, "The Times They Are A-Changing"

A bullet from the back of a bush took Medgar Evers' blood.
A finger fired the trigger to his name.
A handle hid out in the dark
A hand set the spark
Two eyes took the aim
Behind a man's brain
But he can't be blamed
He's only a pawn in their game.

A South politician preaches to the poor white man,
"You got more than the blacks, don't complain.
You're better than them, you been born with white skin," they explain.
And the Negro's name
Is used it is plain
For the politician's gain
As he rises to fame
And the poor white remains
On the caboose of the train
But it ain't him to blame
He's only a pawn in their game.

The deputy sheriffs, the soldiers, the governors get paid,
And the marshals and cops get the same,
But the poor white man's used in the hands of them all like a tool.
He's taught in his school
From the start by the rule
That the laws are with him
To protect his white skin
To keep up his hate
So he never thinks straight
'Bout the shape that he's in
But it ain't him to blame
He's only a pawn in their game.

From the poverty shacks, he looks from the cracks to the tracks,
And the hoof beats pound in his brain.
And he's taught how to walk in a pack
Shoot in the back
With his fist in a clinch
To hang and to lynch
To hide 'neath the hood
To kill with no pain
Like a dog on a chain
He ain't got no name
But it ain't him to blame
He's only a pawn in their game.

Today, Medgar Evers was buried from the bullet he caught.
They lowered him down as a king.
But when the shadowy sun sets on the one
That fired the gun
He'll see by his grave
On the stone that remains
Carved next to his name
His epitaph plain:
Only a pawn in their game.

The Lonesome Death of Hattie Carroll
by Bob Dylan, from the album "The Times They Are A-Changing", 1963


William Zanzinger killed poor Hattie Carroll
With a cane that he twirled around his diamond ring finger
At a Baltimore hotel society gath'rin'.
And the cops were called in and his weapon took from him
As they rode him in custody down to the station
And booked William Zanzinger for first-degree murder.
But you who philosophize disgrace and criticize all fears,
Take the rag away from your face.
Now ain't the time for your tears.

William Zanzinger, who at twenty-four years
Owns a tobacco farm of six hundred acres
With rich wealthy parents who provide and protect him
And high office relations in the politics of Maryland,
Reacted to his deed with a shrug of his shoulders
And swear words and sneering, and his tongue it was snarling,
In a matter of minutes on bail was out walking.
But you who philosophize disgrace and criticize all fears,
Take the rag away from your face.
Now ain't the time for your tears.

Hattie Carroll was a maid of the kitchen.
She was fifty-one years old and gave birth to ten children
Who carried the dishes and took out the garbage
And never sat once at the head of the table
And didn't even talk to the people at the table
Who just cleaned up all the food from the table
And emptied the ashtrays on a whole other level,
Got killed by a blow, lay slain by a cane
That sailed through the air and came down through the room,
Doomed and determined to destroy all the gentle.
And she never done nothing to William Zanzinger.
But you who philosophize disgrace and criticize all fears,
Take the rag away from your face.
Now ain't the time for your tears.

In the courtroom of honor, the judge pounded his gavel
To show that all's equal and that the courts are on the level
And that the strings in the books ain't pulled and persuaded
And that even the nobles get properly handled
Once that the cops have chased after and caught 'em
And that the ladder of law has no top and no bottom,
Stared at the person who killed for no reason
Who just happened to be feelin' that way without warnin'.
And he spoke through his cloak, most deep and distinguished,
And handed out strongly, for penalty and repentance,
William Zanzinger with a six-month sentence.
Oh, but you who philosophize disgrace and criticize all fears,
Bury the rag deep in your face
For now's the time for your tears.


this song, and the one I posted previous to it are based on true stories, fro the 60s.

The Weight
by: The Band

I pulled into Nazareth, was feelin' about half past dead;
I just need some place where I can lay my head.
"Hey, mister, can you tell me where a man might find a bed?"
He just grinned and shook my hand, and "No!", was all he said.

(Chorus:)
Take a load off Fanny, take a load for free;
Take a load off Fanny, And (and) (and) you can put the load right on me.

I picked up my bag, I went lookin' for a place to hide;
When I saw Carmen and the Devil walkin' side by side.
I said, "Hey, Carmen, come on, let's go downtown."
She said, "I gotta go, but m'friend can stick around."

(Chorus)

Go down, Miss Moses, there's nothin' you can say
It's just ol' Luke, and Luke's waitin' on the Judgement Day.
"Well, Luke, my friend, what about young Anna Lee?"
He said, "Do me a favour, son, woncha stay an' keep Anna Lee company?"

(Chorus)

Crazy Chester followed me, and he caught me in the fog.
He said, "I will fix your rack, if you'll take Jack, my dog."
I said, "Wait a minute, Chester, you know I'm a peaceful man."
He said, "That's okay, boy, won't you feed him when you can."

(Chorus)

Catch a cannon ball now, t'take me down the line
My bag is sinkin' low and I do believe it's time.
To get back to Miss Fanny, you know she's the only one.
Who sent me here with her regards for everyone?

(Chorus)

I think this is one of the great songs ever made. Up there with "Imagine", "Stairway to Heaven", and the other great ones. I just love this song!

Hate This Place- Goo Goo Dolls
Gone away
Who knows where you been
You take all your lies
And wish them all away

I somehow doubt
We'll ever be the same
There's too much poison
And confusion on your face

Can you feel it
I didn't mean it
Can I see you
or what were doin
I think I love you
But I ain't sayin' nothin' you don’t know

Hold on dream away
You're my sweet charade

Take your time
Move yourself to me
Yeah I cant take your lies
Until you fall away
You know I’m lost
Hiding in your bed
No I don't think it’s wrong
It's just gone to my head

Can you feel it
I didn't mean it
Can I see you
What are we doin'
I think I love you
But I ain't sayin' nothin' you don’t know

Hold on dream away
You're my sweet charade

Hey watcha do to me
Would you come back to me
Yeah I can't do another day
I'm not certain of it anyway
I'm not messin' with another life
Can I get on without you
Tell me lies
That you
Know I need

Hold on dream away
You’re my sweet charade

Hold on dream away
You’re my sweet charade




Name- Goo Goo Dolls
And even though the moment passed me by
I still can't turn away
I saw the dreams you never thought you'd lose
Tossed along the way
And letters that you never meant to send
Lost or blown away

And now we've grown up orphans I never knew their names
We dont belong to no one thats a shame
You could hide beside me
Maybe for a while
And I won't tell no one your name..
And I won't tell em your name

The scars are souviners you'll never lose
The past is never far
Did you lose yourself out there?
Did you get to be a star?
And don't it make you sad to know that life
Is more than who we are?

You grew up way too fast
Now there's nothing to believe
The re-runs all become our history
A tired song keeps playin on a tired radio
And I won't tell no one your name..
And I won't tell em your name
I won't tell your name...I won't tell your name

I think about you all the time
And I don't need the same...
If it's lonley where you are, come back down
And I won't tell your name

Trace Adkins- Help Me Understand

Once in a lifetime
You'll open up your heart
Maybe once in your lifetime
You'll swear to never be apart
You think your love's on solid ground
Then out of the blue, it all comes tumblin' down

Who's gonna hold me tonight
When I'm feeling lonely
Who's gonna show me the light
'Cause I need to know
With all the things we've got
How can love just stop
Tell me, somebody help me understand

And my picture in your locket:
What will you do with it now?
All our friends and all our memories
Tell me how we sort them out.
What's yours is yours, what's mine is mine
Is that all that's left after all this time

Who's gonna hold me tonight
When I'm feeling lonely
Who's gonna show me the light
'Cause I need to know
With all the things we've got
How can love just stop
Tell me, somebody help me understand

Why I'm not a part of your plan
And you don't need me anymore
Help me understand
Why I still wanna be where you are
Even though I know in my heart
That you don't love me anymore

Who's gonna hold me tonight
When I'm feeling lonely
Who's gonna show me the light
'Cause I need to know
With all the things we've got
How can love just stop
Tell me somebody help me understand..

Mad at Gravity

Walk Away

Find me
I'm falling
And fooling
Myself that it's flight
Imperfect
I plummett
And ponder
Pushed away on principle

Walk away
And I stare
Would you stand me up again
Wonder if I've said too much
And we'll never speak again

Forfeit my future
For feelings
Of few far betweens
Mindless
Of merciful measures
Making ends preempt the means

And I searched your eyes for an answer
And shuddered at what I found there
As my skin shrunk away from conclusion
That you lack the strength to care

Walk away
And I stare
Would you stand me up again
Wonder if I've said too much
And we'll never speak again

This is the way
It has to be
That you would turn
Your back on me
And you and I should walk away

Walk Away
And I stare
Would you stand me up again
Wonder if I've said too much
And we'll never speak again
Never speak again
Never speak again


In Vain

Minds
(It's cold outside)
Will go unbroken
(Close the door)
Thoughts
(Once complete)
Will fade away
(Never more)

I'm reaching to find
The words to define
The feeling entwined
In every aching line
In vain…
I'm waiting
Here at the end
The urge to defend
The meaning in trend
Will never let me bend
In vain…

Words
(It's cold outside)
Remain unspoken
(Close the door)
Hands
(Once complete)
Will soon decay
(Never more)

I'm reaching to find
The words to define
The feeling entwined
In every aching line
In vain…
I'm waiting
Here at the end
The urge to defend
The meaning in trend
Will never let me bend
In vain…

Can you hear me?
Do I speak in vain?
Don't leave the light on
Slumber becomes you the same

I'm reaching to find
The words to define
The feeling entwined
In every aching line
In vain…
I'm waiting
Here at the end
The urge to defend
The meaning in trend
Will never let me bend
In vain…

Can you hear me?
Do I speak in vain?


Burn

These embers burn down low
And with my face aglow
You are all I know

Set this place on fire
Watch the flames rise higher
As they reach the ceiling
At your feet I'm kneeling

Drawing ever near
My cause revealed as clear
Yes, I burn for you hear

Set this place on fire
Watch the flames rise higher
As they reach the ceiling
At your feet I'm kneeling
With every trailing plume
Know it bears me home

I would give it all
Yes, I would give it all
Yes, I would give it all
Yes, I would give it all

Set this place on fire
Watch the flames rise higher
As they reach the ceiling
At your feet I'm kneeling
With every trailing plume
Know it bears me home

Let it burn
Let it burn

Fool- Lee Ann Womack

You don't know me but I know who you are
Mind if I sit down?
Do I look familiar? If I don't, well I should
I'm sure you've seen me around
I know you've probably heard my name
Though we've not been introduced:
I'm the fool in love with the fool
Who's still in love with you

If you've got a minute I'll buy you a drink
I've got something to say
It might sound crazy but last night in his sleep
I heard him call out your name
This ain't the first time..he's done it before
And it's hard to face the truth
I'm the fool in love with the fool
Who's still in love with you

I know love is a fragile thing
And I'm trying hard to make it last
But it ain't easy, holding on to my dream
When he's holding on to the past

Just one more thing before I go
I'm not here to put you down
You don't love him and that's a fact
Girl, I've seen you around
But you hold his heart in the palm of your hand
And it's breaking mine in two
'Cause I'm the fool in love with the fool
Who's still in love with you

I'm the fool in love with the fool
Who's still in love with you

[Knerys]

This was spawned from a night of insanity.:grin:


ROBBIE WILLIAMS

"Rock DJ"

Me with the floorshow
Kickin' with your torso
Boys getting high
And the girls even more so
Wave your hands if your not with the man
Can I kick it?
(Yes you can)
I got
(Funk)
You got
(Soul)
We got everybody
I've got the gift
Gonna stick it in the goal
It's time to move your body

Babylon back in business
Can I get a witness?
Every girl, every man
Houston, can you hear me?
Ground control, can you feel me?
Need permission to land
I don't wanna rock, DJ
But your making me feel so nice
When's it gonna stop, DJ?
Cos you're keepin' me up all night

Singin' in the classes
Music for your masses
Give no head
No backstage passes
Have a proper giggle
I'll be quite polite
But when I rock the mic
I rock the mic
(Right)
You got no love, then you're with the wrong man
It's time to move your body
If you can't get a girl
But your best friend can
It's time to move your body

I don't wanna be sleazy
Baby just tease me
Got no family planned
Houston, can you hear me?
Need permission to land
I don't wanna rock DJ
But you're making me feel so nice
When's it gonna stop, DJ?
Cos you're keeping me up all night

I don't wanna rock, DJ
But you're making me feel so nice
When's it gonna stop, DJ?
Cos your keeping me up all night

Pimpin' aint easy
Most of them fleece me
Every night
Pimpin' ain't easy
But if you're sellin' it
It's alright

Come on

I don't wanna rock, DJ
But you're making me feel so nice
When's it gonna stop, DJ?
Cos you're keeping me up all night

I don't wanna rock, DJ
But you're making me feel so nice
When's it gonna stop, DJ?
Cos you're keeping me up all night

"Don't Call Me Baby"

You and me, we have an opportunity
And we could make it something really cool
But you, you think I'm not that kind of girl
I'm here to tell you baby, I know how to rock your world

I'm the one to take you on
Don't underestimate me boy
I'll make you sorry you were born
You don't know me
The way you really should
You sure misunderstood

Dont' call me baby
You got some nerve, and baby that'll never do
You know I don't belong t o you
It's time you knew I'm not your baby
I belong to me, so
Don't call me baby


Behind my smile is my IQ
I must admit, this does not sit, with the likes of you
You're really sweet
Mmm, you're really nice
But didn't mama ever tell you not to play with fire?


Don't think that I'm not strong
I'm the one to take you on
Don't underestimate me boy
I'll make you sorry you were born
You don't know me
The way you really should

Dont' call me baby
You got some nerve, and baby that'll never do
You know I don't belong t o you
It's time you knew I'm not your baby
I belong to me, so
Don't call me baby


JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE LYRICS

"Cry Me A River"

You were my sun
You were my earth
But you didn't know all the ways I loved you, no
So you took a chance
And made other plans
But I bet you didn't think your thing would come crashing down, no

You don't have to say, what you did,
I already know, I found out from him
Now there's just no chance, for you and me, there'll never be
And don't it make you sad about it

You told me you loved me
Why did you leave me, all alone
Now you tell me you need me
When you call me, on the phone
Girl I refuse, you must have me confused
With some other guy
Your bridges were burned, and now it's your turn
To cry, cry me a river
Cry me a river-er
Cry me a river
Cry me a river-er, yea yea

I know that they say
That somethings are better left unsaid
It wasn't like you only talked to him and you know it
(Don't act like you don't know it)
All of these things people told me
Keep messing with my head
(Messing with my head)
You should've picked honesty
Then you may not have blown it
(Yea..)

You don't have to say, what you did,
(Don't have to say, what you did)
I already know, I found out from him
(I already know, uh)
Now there's just no chance, for you and me, there'll never be
(No chance, you and me)
And don't it make you sad about it

You told me you loved me
Why did you leave me, all alone
(All alone)
Now you tell me you need me
When you call me, on the phone
(When you call me on the phone)
Girl I refuse, you must have me confused
With some other guy
(I'm not like them baby)
Your bridges were burned, and now it's your turn
(It's your turn)
To cry, cry me a river
(Go on and just)
Cry me a river-er
(Go on and just)
Cry me a river
(Baby go on and just)
Cry me a river-er, yea yea

Oh (Oh)
The damage is done
So I guess I be leaving
Oh (Oh)
The damage is done
So I guess I be leaving
Oh (Oh)
The damage is done
So I guess I be leaving
Oh (Oh)
The damage is done
So I guess I be... leaving

You don't have to say, what you did,
(Don't have to say, what you did)
I already know, I found out from him
(I already know, uh)
Now there's just no chance, for you and me, there'll never be
(No chance, you and me)
And don't it make you sad about it

Cry me a river
(Go on and just)
Cry me a river-er
(Baby go on and just)
Cry me a river
(You can go on and just)
Cry me a river-er, yea yea

Cry me a river
(Baby go on and just)
Cry me a river-er
(Go on and just)
Cry me a river
(Cause I've already cried)
Cry me a river-er, yea yea
(Ain't gonna cry no more, yea-yea)

Cry me a river
Cry me a river, oh
Cry me a river, oh
Cry me a river, oh

Cry me a river, oh
(Cry me, cry me)
Cry me a river, oh
(Cry me, cry me)
Cry me a river, oh
(Cry me, cry me)
Cry me a river, oh
(Cry me, cry me).......

"Song 2"

I got my head checked
By a jumbo jet
It wasn't easy
But nothing is
No

Woo-hoo
When I feel heavy-metal
And I'm pins and I'm needles
Well, I lie and I'm easy
All the time but I am never sure
Why I need you
Pleased to meet you

I got my head down
When I was young
It's not my problem
It's not my problem

Woo-hoo
When I feel heavy-metal
And I'm pins and I'm needles
Well, I lie and I'm easy
All the time but I am never sure
Why I need you
Pleased to meet you

Yeah yeah
Yeah yeah
Yeah yeah
Oh yeah

[Alien]

Yesterday, all troubles seemed so far away
Now it looks as if they are here to stay
Oh I believe, in yesterday

Suddenly, I’m not half the man I used to be
There’s a shadow hanging over me
Oh yesterday, came suddenly

Why she, had to go I don’t know
She wouldn’t say
I said something wrong, now I long for yesterday

Yesterday, love was such an easy game to play
Now I need a place to hide away
Oh I believe, in yesterday

Why she, had to go I don’t know
She wouldn’t say
I said something wrong, now I long for yesterday

Yesterday, love was such an easy game to play
Now I need a place to hide away
Oh I believe, in yesterday

Juke Joint Jezebel - KMFDM

I can't reject this empty hole
I cannot count the bloody cost
I can't believe this wretched soul
Come penetrate all this loss
Come on and kill this sense of life
And be the one who is denied
Now show me one more upturned knife
And fill the emptiness inside

Be mine sister salvation
Juke-Joint Jezebel is coming for my cremation
Be mine sister salvation
Closer now
See the revelation

If I could leave my burning skin
That has been used up in your sin
Is there a tiny part of me
Untouched, unsoiled by misery

Be mine sister salvation
Juke-Joint Jezebel is coming for my cremation
Be mine sister salvation
Closer now
See the revelation

I am the city that will lie
You are the one that blame passed by
This is the place where I will weep
The loneliness of sweet conciet

Be mine sister salvation
Juke-Joint Jezebel is coming for my cremation
Be mine sister salvation
Closer now
See the revelation
The revelation
The revelation
The revelation
See the revelation

Crush - Mandy Moore(Before the posts come in on how much of a puss I am, this song describes how I feel about my girlfriend.)


You know everything that I'm afraid of
You do everything i wish i did
Everybody wants you, everybody loves you

I know i should tell you how i feel
I wish everyone would disappear
Every time time you call me, I'm too scared to be me
And I'm too shy to say

Ooh, I got a crush on you
I hope you feel the way that i do
I get a rush
When I'm with you
Ooh, I've got a crush on you
A crush on you

You know, I'm the one that you can talk to
And sometimes you tell me things that i don't want to know
I just want to hold you
And you say exactly how you feel about her
And I wonder, could you ever think of me that way

Ooh, I got a crush on you
I hope you feel the way that i do
I get a rush
When I'm with you
Ooh, I've got a crush on you
A crush on you

Ooh, I wish i could tell somebody
But there's no one to talk to, nobody knows
I've got a crush on you
A crush on you, I got a crush

You say everything that no one says
But i feel everything that you're afraid to feel
I will always want you, I will always love you
I've got a crush...

Kinda odd how I go from hardcore techno to softy-lovey dovey.

[QUINNtheESKIMO]

Bob Dylan wrote this one:

How many roads must a man walk down
Before you call him a man?
Yes, 'n' how many seas must a white dove sail
Before she sleeps in the sand?
Yes, 'n' how many times must the cannon balls fly
Before they're forever banned?
The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind,
The answer is blowin' in the wind.

How many times must a man look up
Before he can see the sky?
Yes, 'n' how many ears must one man have
Before he can hear people cry?
Yes, 'n' how many deaths will it take till he knows
That too many people have died?
The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind,
The answer is blowin' in the wind.

How many years can a mountain exist
Before it's washed to the sea?
Yes, 'n' how many years can some people exist
Before they're allowed to be free?
Yes, 'n' how many times can a man turn his head,
Pretending he just doesn't see?
The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind,
The answer is blowin' in the wind.

[Kyle Katarn]

I first heard this song as Victoria's new WWE theme at the Armageddon PPV: "All the Things She Said" by Tatu.

All the things she said
All the things she said
Running through my head
Running through my head
Running through my head
All the things she said
All the things she said
Running through my head
Running through my head
All the things she said

This is not enough

I'm in serious s***, I feel totally lost
If I'm asking for help it's only because
Being with you has opened my eyes
Could I ever believe such a perfect surprise?

I keep asking myself, wondering how
I keep closing my eyes but I can't block you out
Wanna fly to a place where it's just you and me
Nobody else so we can be free

Nobody else so we can be free

All the things she said
All the things she said
Running through my head
Running through my head
Running through my head
All the things she said
All the things she said
Running through my head
Running through my head
All the things she said
This is not enough

This is not enough
All the things she said
All the things she said

All the things she said
All the things she said

All the things she said
All the things she said
All the things she said


And I'm all mixed up, feeling cornered and rushed
They say it's my fault but I want her so much
Wanna fly her away where the sun and rain
Come in over my face, wash away all the shame
When they stop and stare - don't worry me
'Cause I'm feeling for her what she's feeling for me
I can try to pretend, I can try to forget
But it's driving me mad, going out of my head

All the things she said
All the things she said
Running through my head
Running through my head
Running through my head
All the things she said
All the things she said
Running through my head
Running through my head
All the things she said
This is not enough

This is not enough
All the things she said
All the things she said

All the things she said
All the things she said

All the things she said
All the things she said
All the things she said

Mother looking at me
Tell me what do you see?
Yes, I've lost my mind

Daddy looking at me
Will I ever be free?
Have I crossed the line?

All the things she said
All the things she said
Running through my head
Running through my head
Running through my head
All the things she said
All the things she said
Running through my head
Running through my head
All the things she said

This is not enough
This is not enough

All the things she said
All the things she said
All the things she said....

[Halofan1]

This song in a way describes my girlfriend and I. Radio Ga Ga by Queen.

Radio Ga Ga

Radio - radio
I'd sit alone and watch your light
My only friend through teenage nights
And everything I had to know
I heard it on my radio

You gave them all those old time stars
Through wars of worlds - invaded by Mars
You made 'em laugh - you made 'em cry
You made us feel like we could fly
Radio

So don't become some background noise
A backdrop for the girls and boys
Who just don't know or just don't care
And just complain when you're not there
You had your time, you had the power
You've yet to have your finest hour
Radio - radio

All we hear is radio ga ga
Radio goo goo
Radio ga ga
All we hear is radio ga ga
Radio blah blah
Radio what's new ?
Radio, someone still loves you

We watch the shows - we watch the stars
On videos for hours and hours
We hardly need to use our ears
How music changes through the years

Let's hope you never leave old friend
Like all good things on you we depend
So stick around 'cos we might miss you
When we grow tired of all this visual
You had your time - you had the power
You've yet to have your finest hour
Radio - radio

All we hear is radio ga ga
Radio goo goo
Radio ga ga
All we hear is radio ga ga
Radio goo goo
Radio ga ga
All we hear is radio ga ga
Radio blah blah
Radio what's new ?
Someone still loves you

Radio ga ga (ga ga)
Radio ga ga (ga ga)
Radio ga ga (ga ga)

You had your time - you had the power
You've yet to have your finest hour
Radio - radio

A Perfect Circle
"3 Libras"

threw you the obvious and you flew
with it on your back, a name in your recollection,
thrown down among a million same.
difficult not to feel a little bit disappointed
and passed over
when i've looked right through
to see you naked and oblivious
and
you don't see me.but i threw you the obvious
just to see if there's more behind the eyes
of a fallen angel,
the eyes of a tragedy.
here i am expecting just a little bit
too much from the wounded.
but i see through it all
and see you.
so i threw you the obvious
to see what occurs behind the eyes of a fallen angel,
eyes of a tragedy.
oh well. apparently nothing.
you don't see me.
you don't see me at all.

[Halofan1]

She's away in Colorado. Pink Floyd works perfectly here.

Wish You Were Here

So, so you think you can tell Heaven from Hell
Blue Skies 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 heroes for ghosts
Hard ashes for trees
Hot air for a cool breeze
Cold comfort for change
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 grounds
What have we found?
Same old fears
Wish you were here

(NOTE - Typed completely from memory. Listened to the song and I was dead on target.)

[A+]

You could be my unintended
Choice to live my life extended
You could be the one I'll always love
You could be the one who listens
To my deepest inquisitions
You could be the one I'll always love


I'll be there as soon as I can
But I'm busy mending broken
Pieces of the life I had before


First there was the one who challenged
All my dreams and all my balance
She could never be as good as you
You could be my unintended
Choice to live my life extended
You could be the one I'll always love


I'll be there as soon as I can
But I'm busy mending broken
Pieces of the life I had before


I'll be there as soon as I can
But I'm busy mending broken
Pieces of the life I had before


Before you

[Rogue]

A very special song to me:

Because You Loved Me- Celine Dion


For all those times you stood by me
For all the truth that you made me see
For all the joy you brought to my life
For all the wrong that you made right
For every dream you made come true
For all the love I found in you
I'll be forever thankful baby
You're the one who held me up
Never let me fall
You're the one who saw me through, through it all

You were my strength when I was weak
You were my voice when I couldn't speak
You were my eyes when I couldn't see
You saw the best there was in me
Lifted me up when I couldn't reach
You gave me faith 'cause you believed
I'm everything I am
Because you loved me

You gave me wings and made me fly
You touched my hand I could touch the sky
I lost my faith, you gave it back to me
You said no star was out of reach
You stood by me and I stood tall
I had your love I had it all
I'm grateful for each day you gave me
Maybe I don't know that much
But I know this much is true
I was blessed because I was loved by you

You were my strength when I was weak
You were my voice when I couldn't speak
You were my eyes when I couldn't see
You saw the best there was in me
Lifted me up when I couldn't reach
You gave me faith 'cause you believed
I'm everything I am
Because you loved me

You were always there for me
The tender wind that carried me
A light in the dark shining your love into my life
You've been my inspiration
Through the lies you were the truth
My world is a better place because of you

You were my strength when I was weak
You were my voice when I couldn't speak
You were my eyes when I couldn't see
You saw the best there was in me
Lifted me up when I couldn't reach
You gave me faith 'cause you believed
I'm everything I am
Because you loved me

You were my strength when I was weak
You were my voice when I couldn't speak
You were my eyes when I couldn't see
You saw the best there was in me
Lifted me up when I couldn't reach
You gave me faith 'cause you believed
I'm everything I am
Because you loved me

I'm everything I am
Because you loved me

[Dione]

This song is still stuck in my head so here it is:

Vienna - Billy Joel


Slow down you crazy child
You're so ambitious for a juvenile
But then if you're so smart
tell me why are you still so afraid
Where's the fire, what's the hurry about
You better cool it off before you burn it out
You've got so much to so
and only so many hours in a day

But you know that when the truth is told
that you can get what you want
or you can just get old
You're gonna kick off before you even get halfway through
When will you realize, Vienna waits for you

Slow down, you're doing fine
You can't be everything you want to be
before your time
Although it's so romantic on the borderline tonight
Too bad, but it's the life you lead
you're so ahead of yourself
that you forgot what you need
Though you can see when you're wrong
you know you can't always see when you're right

You got your passion, you got your pride
but don't you know that only fools are satisfied
Dream on, but don't imagine they'll all come true
When will you realize, Vienna waits for you

Slow down, you crazy child
and take the phone off the hook
and disappear for a while
It's alright, you can afford to lose a day or two
When will you realize, Vienna waits for you

And you know that when the truth is told
you can get what you want
or you can just get old
You're gonna kick off before you even get halfway through
When will you realize, Vienna waits for you

[Dione]

Well, since I'm here, I will post the song that totally does it for me. If any man played this song for me or sang it to me, I could not be responsible for my actions. :)

I Guess That's Why They Call it the Blues - Elton John

Don't wish it away, don't look at it like it's forever
Between you and me, I could honestly say
that things could only get better
And while I'm away, dust out the demons inside
and it won't be long
Before you and me run to the place in our hearts where we hide

And I guess that's why they call it the blues
Time on my hands would be time spent with you
Laughing like children
Living like lovers
Rolling like thunder under the covers
And I guess that's why they call it the blues

Just stare in to space, picture my face in your hands
Live for each second without hesitation
and never forget I'm your man
Wait on me girl, cry in the night if it helps
But more than ever
I simply love you more than I love life itself

And I guess that's why they call it the blues
Time on my hands would be time spent with you
Laughing like children
Living like lovers
Rolling like thunder under the covers
And I guess that's why they call it the blues

Wait on me girl, cry in the night if it helps
But more than ever
I simply love you more than I love life itself

And I guess that's why they call it the blues
Time on my hands would be time spent with you
Laughing like children
Living like lovers
Rolling like thunder under the covers
And I guess that's why they call it the blues
And I guess that's why they call it the blues
And I guess that's why they call it the blues

[Rogue]

I Will Always Love You- Vince Gill/Dolly Parton (not Whitney!!)

If I should stay, I would only be in your way
So I'll go, but I know..
I will think of you each step of the way
And I will always love you, I will always love you
Bittersweet memories, that is all I'm taking with me
Goodbye, please don't you cry...
'Cause we both know I'm not what you need
But I will always love you, I will always love you
I hope life treats you kind
And I hope you have all you dream of
And I wish you joy and happiness
But above all this I wish you..love
And I will always love you, I will always love you
Yes, I will always love you, I will always love you..

[JBond]

Time - Pink Floyd

Ticking away the moments that make up a dull day
You fritter and waste the hours in an off hand way
Kicking around on a piece of ground in your home town
Waiting for someone or something to show you the way

Tired of lying in the sunshine staying home to watch the rain
You are young and life is long and there is time to kill today
And then the one day you find ten years have got behind you
No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun

And you run and you run to catch up with the sun, but it's sinking
And racing around to come up behind you again
The sun is the same in the relative way, but you're older
And shorter of breath and one day closer to death

Every year is getting shorter, never seem to find the time
Plans that either come to naught or half a page of scribbled lines
Hanging on in quiet desparation in the English way
The time is gone the song is over, thought I'd something more to say

TENACIOUS D LYRICS

"Wonderboy"

High above the mucky-muck, castle made of clouds,
There sits Wonderboy, sitting oh so proudly.
Not much to say when you're high above the mucky-muck.
Yeah, yeah.
Wonderboy, what is the secret of your power?
Wonderboy, won't you take me far away from the mucky-muck man?

[spoken]
Now it's time for me to tell you about Young Nastyman,
archrival and nemesis of Wonderboy, with powers comparable to Wonderboy.
What powers you ask? I dunno how 'bout the power of flight?
That do anything for ya? That's levitation, holmes.
How 'bout the power to kill a yak from 200 yards away...
with mind bullets! That's telekinesis, Kyle.
How 'bout the power to move you?

[sung]
History of Wonderboy and Young Nastyman,
Riggah-goo-goo, riggah-goo-goo.
A secret to be told, a gold chest to be bold,
And blasting forth with three-part harmony, yeow!
Wonderboy, what is the secret of your power?
Wonderboy, won't you take me far away from the mucky-muck man?

[spoken]
Well, Wonderboy and Young Nastyman joined forces;
they formed a band the likes of which have never been seen,
and they called themselves Tenacious D. That's right,
[sung]
Me! And KG!
[KG (spoken):] That's me.
[sung]
We're now Tenacious D!
Come fly with me, fly!

Wonderboy, what is the secret of your power?
Wonderboy, won't you take me far away from the mucky-muck man,
Oh!
[spoken]
Take my hand!
Young Nastyman, and we'll fly!
Bring out your broadsword.
There's the hydra.
Slice his throat!
And grab his scroat.
You take the high road,
I'll take the low.
There, the crevasse,
Fill it with your mighty juice.

MAXWELL

"Fortunate"

[Verse1:]

Never seen a sun shine like this
Never seen the moon glow like this
Never seen the waterfalls like this
Never seen the lights off like this
Never dug anyone like this
Never had tasty lips to kiss
Never had someone to miss
Never wrote a song quite like this

[Chorus:]

Fortunate to have you girl,
I'm so glad you're in my world,
Just as sure as the sky is blue,
I bless the day that I found you.

[Verse 2:]

Never had room service all night
Never took a trip first class flight
Never had a love affair so tight
I've never felt a feeling so right
Never seen a winter so white
Never had words to recite
Never had a flame to ignite
And I never sang a song with all my might.

[chorus 2x]

Silence child hope you hear
I'm callin out to your body
Baby you know just what to do
Close the door no interlude

[chorus 2x]

Here's a naughty song by Brian Setzer that always makes me smile...

That's the Kind of Sugar Papa Likes - Brian Setzer

That's the kind of sugar
That's the kind of sugar
That's the kind of sugar papa likes

I've been reminicin'
Can't believe what I've been missin'
Won't you give me some of your sweet kissin'
Cause that's the kind of sugar papa likes

I don't want no candy
I don't need no fine peach brandy
Your sweet lips suit me dandy
Now, that's the kind of sugar papa likes

That's the kind of sugar papa likes
That's the kind of sugar papa likes
Forget about the sugar in your sugar bowl
I just want a taste of your sweet jelly roll

My heart's calculatin'
My true love will still be waitin'
If I'm not mistaken
That's the kind of sugar
That's the kind of sugar
That's the kind of sugar papa likes

That's the kind of sugar papa likes
That's the kind of sugar papa likes
Forget about the sugar in your sugar bowl
I just want a taste of your sweet jelly roll

Baby your smile is showin'
What I think we've both been knowin'
So come on honey let's get goin'
Cause that's the kind of sugar papa likes

You'll look so in style
When I walk you down the aisle
And I'll show you in a little while
That's the kind of sugar papa likes

That's the kind of sugar papa likes
That's the kind of sugar papa likes
Forget about the sugar in your sugar bowl
I just want a taste of your sweet jelly roll

Baby your smile is showin'
What I think we've both been knowin'
So come on honey let's get going'
That's the kind of sugar
That's the kind of sugar
That's the kind of sugar papa likes

Here's a great song by one of my favorite Canadian singers. The fact that he is wonderful to look at is just a bonus :)

St. Annie of the Wild Blue Eyes - Roch Voisine

A paper wrapped around a lampost
At Bleaker and McDougall where Kerouac stood
The wind pushed us into a doorway
And it felt good, it felt good
Time didn't pass, it scattered
I put one more on the tab
We flagged a ride at closing time
And the laughs turned to kisses in the back of the cab
And it felt good...

St. Annie, you blessed my bed
Your sweet love was my daily bread
You'd come to me when the moon would rise
Sweet St. Annie of the wild blue eyes

The days flew by like pages
On those rainsoaked streets
Where Gainsburg wrote
We made love in the mornings
Where did they go, where did they go
You were my ragtag savior
And I was your hopeless case
We made our ways through the bars and cafes
And I memorized your heavenly face
Where did you go

St. Annie, you blessed my bed
Your sweet love was my daily bread
You'd come to me when the moon would rise
Sweet St. Annie of the wild blue eyes

I knew we couldn't last together
But I'll picture those blue eyes forever

Sweet, sweet Annie
Your love was all I had
And your wild blue eyes
Sweet St. Annie of the wild blue eyes...

St. Annie, you blessed my bed
Your sweet love was my daily bread
You'd come to me when the moon would rise
Sweet St. Annie of the wild blue eyes
etc.

One of my favorite songs:

Just Dropped In (To See What Condition My Condition Was In)
Performed by: Kenny Rogers and the First Edition

Lyrics:

(Yeah, yeah, oh yeah, what condition my condition was in)

I woke up this mornin' with the sundown shinin' in
I found my mind in a brown paper bag within
I tripped on a cloud and fell-a eight miles high
I tore my mind on a jagged sky
I just dropped in to see what condition my condition was in

(Yeah, yeah, oh yeah, what condition my condition was in)

I pushed my soul in a deep dark hole and then I followed it in
I watched myself crawlin' out as I was a-crawlin' in
I got up so tight I couldn't unwind
I saw so much I broke my mind
I just dropped in to see what condition my condition was in

(Yeah, yeah, oh yeah, what condition my condition was in)

Someone painted "April Fool" in big black letter on a "Dead End" sign
I had my foot on the gas as I left the road and blew out my mind
Eight miles outta Memphis and I got no spare
Eight miles straight up downtown somewhere
I just dropped in to see what condition my condition was in
Yeah yeah oh yeah

[Citizen Kane]

Here is another one of my favorites, In the Year 2525 (Exordium and Terminus). It's sort of depressing, but interesting. It's performed by Zager & Evans.

The Lyrics:

In the year 2525
if man is still alive
if woman can survive
They may find

In the year 3535
Ain't gonna need to tell the truth, tell no lie
Everything you think, do and say
Is in the pill you took today

In the year 4545
You ain't gonna need your teeth, won't need your eyes
You won't find a thing to chew
Nobody's gonna look at you

In the year 5555
Your arms hangin' limp at your sides
Your legs got nothin' to do
Some machine's doin' that for you

In the year 6565
You won't need no husband, won't need no wife
You'll pick your son, pick your daughter too
From the bottom of a long glass tube

In the year 7510
If God's a-coming, He oughta make it by then
Maybe He'll look around Himself and say
"Guess it's time for the judgement day"

In the year 8510
God is gonna shake His mighty head
He'll either say "I'm pleased where man has been"
Or tear it down, and start again

In the year 9595
I'm kinda wonderin' if man is gonna be alive
He's taken everything this old earth can give
And he ain't put back nothing

Now it's been ten thousand years
Man has cried a billion tears
For what, he never knew
Now man's reign is through

But through eternal night
The twinkling of starlight
So very far away
Maybe it's only yesterday

[Citizen Kane]

Another one of my favorites is Shades of Gray, by the Monkees. Here are the lyrics:

When the world and I were young,
Just yesterday.
Live was such a simple game,
A child could play.
It was easy then to tell right from wrong.
Easy then to tell weak from strong.
When a man should stand and fight,
Or just go along.

But today there is no day or night
Today there is no dark or light.
Today there is no black or white,
Only shades of gray.

I remember when the answers seemed so clear
We had never lived with doubt or tasted fear.
It was easy then to tell truth from lies
Selling out from compromise
Who to love and who to hate,
The foolish from the wise.

But today there is no day or night
Today there is no dark or light.
Today there is no black or white,
Only shades of gray.

[Instumental interlude]

It was easy then to know what was fair
When to keep and when to share.
How much to protect your heart
And how much to care.

But today there is no day or night
Today there is no dark or light.
Today there is no black or white,
Only shades of gray.
Only shades of gray.

[Citizen Kane]

This is the last one for now, and possibly one of my favorite songs of all time. It is Needle in the Hay, by Elliot Smith. Here are the lyrics:

your hand on his arm
the hay stack charm around your neck
strung out and thin
calling some friend trying to cash some check
he's acting dumb
that's what you've come to expect
needle in the hay
needle in the hay
needle in the hay
needle in the hay
he's wearing your clothes
head down to toes a reaction to you
you say you know what he did
but you idiot kid
you don't have a clue
sometimes they just get caught in the eye
you're pulling him through
needle in the hay
needle in the hay
needle in the hay
needle in the hay
now on the bus
nearly touching this dirty retreat
falling out 6th and powell a dead sweat in my teeth
gonna walk walk walk
four more blocks plus the one in my brain
down downstairs to the man
he's gonna make it all OK
i can't beat myself
i can't beat myself
and i don't want to talk
i'm taking the cure so i can be quiet
whenever i want
so leave me alone
you ought to be proud that i'm getting good marks
needle in the hay
needle in the hay
needle in the hay
needle in the hay

[sabin26]

Surfacing

Running out of ways to run
I can't see, I can't be
Over and over and under my skin
All this attention is DOING ME IN!

**** IT ALL! **** THIS WORLD!
**** EVERYTHING THAT YOU STAND FOR!
DON'T BELONG! DON'T EXIST!
DON'T GIVE ME A ****!
DON'T EVER JUDGE ME!

Picking through the parts exposed
Taking shape, taking shag
Over and over and under my skin
All this momentum is DOING ME IN!

**** IT ALL! **** THIS WORLD!
**** EVERYTHING THAT YOU STAND FOR!
DON'T BELONG! DON'T EXIST!
DON'T GIVE A ****!
DON'T EVER JUDGE ME!

You got all my love, livin' in your own hate
Drippin' hole man, hard step, no fate
Show you nuthin', but I ain't holdin' back
Every damn word I say is a sneak attack
When I get my hands on you
Ain't a **** thing you can do
Get this cuz you're never gonna get me
I am the very disease you pretend to be

I am the push that makes you move

[Citizen Kane]

Well...:eek:

Anyway, here are the lyrics to my favorite song by Elton John, Mona Lisas and Mad Hatters.

the Lyrics:

And now I know
Spanish Harlem are not just pretty words to say
I thought I knew
But now I know that rose trees never grow in New York City

Until you've seen this trash can dream come true
You stand at the edge while people run you through
And I thank the Lord there's people out there like you
I thank the Lord there's people out there like you

While Mona Lisas and Mad Hatters
Sons of bankers, sons of lawyers
Turn around and say good morning to the night
For unless they see the sky
But they can't and that is why
They know not if it's dark outside or light

This Broadway's got
It's got a lot of songs to sing
If I knew the tunes I might join in
I'll go my way alone
Grow my own, my own seeds shall be sown in New York City

Subway's no way for a good man to go down
Rich man can ride and the hobo he can drown
And I thank the Lord for the people I have found
I thank the Lord for the people I have found

[thebtskink]

Pearl Jam
Wishlist

I wish I was a neutron bomb, for once I could go off
I wish I was a sacrifice but somehow still lived on
I wish I was a sentimental ornament you hung on
The Christmas tree, I wish I was the star that went on top
I wish I was the evidence, I wish I was the grounds
For 50 million hands upraised and open toward the sky

I wish I was a sailor with someone who waited for me
I wish I was as fortunate, as fortunate as me
I wish I was a messenger and all the news was good
I wish I was the full moon shining off a Camaro's hood

I wish I was an alien at home behind the sun
I wish I was the souvenir you kept your house key on
I wish I was the pedal brake that you depended on
I wish I was the verb 'to trust' and never let you down

I wish I was a radio song, the one that you turned up
I wish...
I wish...
I wish...
I wish...
I guess it never stops...

Artist: Bob Dylan
Song: Desolation Row
Album: Highway 61 Revisited(1965)

They're selling postcards of the hanging
They're painting the passports brown
The beauty parlor is filled with sailors
The circus is in town
Here comes the blind commissioner
They've got him in a trance
One hand is tied to the tight-rope walker
The other is in his pants
And the riot squad they're restless
They need somewhere to go
As Lady and I look out tonight
From Desolation Row

Cinderella, she seems so easy
"It takes one to know one," she smiles
And puts her hands in her back pockets
Bette Davis style
And in comes Romeo, he's moaning
"You Belong to Me I Believe"
And someone says," You're in the wrong place, my friend
You better leave"
And the only sound that's left
After the ambulances go
Is Cinderella sweeping up
On Desolation Row

Now the moon is almost hidden
The stars are beginning to hide
The fortunetelling lady
Has even taken all her things inside
All except for Cain and Abel
And the hunchback of Notre Dame
Everybody is making love
Or else expecting rain
And the Good Samaritan, he's dressing
He's getting ready for the show
He's going to the carnival tonight
On Desolation Row

Now Ophelia, she's 'neath the window
For her I feel so afraid
On her twenty-second birthday
She already is an old maid

To her, death is quite romantic
She wears an iron vest
Her profession's her religion
Her sin is her lifelessness
And though her eyes are fixed upon
Noah's great rainbow
She spends her time peeking
Into Desolation Row

Einstein, disguised as Robin Hood
With his memories in a trunk
Passed this way an hour ago
With his friend, a jealous monk
He looked so immaculately frightful
As he bummed a cigarette
Then he went off sniffing drainpipes
And reciting the alphabet
Now you would not think to look at him
But he was famous long ago
For playing the electric violin
On Desolation Row

Dr. Filth, he keeps his world
Inside of a leather cup
But all his sexless patients
They're trying to blow it up
Now his nurse, some local loser
She's in charge of the cyanide hole
And she also keeps the cards that read
"Have Mercy on His Soul"
They all play on penny whistles
You can hear them blow
If you lean your head out far enough
From Desolation Row

Across the street they've nailed the curtains
They're getting ready for the feast
The Phantom of the Opera
A perfect image of a priest
They're spoonfeeding Casanova
To get him to feel more assured
Then they'll kill him with self-confidence
After poisoning him with words

And the Phantom's shouting to skinny girls
"Get Outa Here If You Don't Know
Casanova is just being punished for going
To Desolation Row"

Now at midnight all the agents
And the superhuman crew
Come out and round up everyone
That knows more than they do
Then they bring them to the factory
Where the heart-attack machine
Is strapped across their shoulders
And then the kerosene
Is brought down from the castles
By insurance men who go
Check to see that nobody is escaping
To Desolation Row

Praise be to Nero's Neptune
The Titanic sails at dawn
And everybody's shouting
"Which Side Are You On?"
And Ezra Pound and T. S. Eliot
Fighting in the captain's tower
While calypso singers laugh at them
And fishermen hold flowers
Between the windows of the sea
Where lovely mermaids flow
And nobody has to think too much
About Desolation Row

Yes, I received your letter yesterday
(About the time the door knob broke)
When you asked how I was doing
Was that some kind of joke?
All these people that you mention
Yes, I know them, they're quite lame
I had to rearrange their faces
And give them all another name
Right now I can't read too good
Don't send me no more letters no
Not unless you mail them
From Desolation Row

OK don't laugh, but I really like this song.

Another Sleepless Night - Anne Murray

The nights have been so lonely
Since you went away
I could not get to sleep
Try as I may
But now you're back
And you're here to stay...

Still it looks like another sleepless night
Oh but darlin' that's alright
Just as long as you are holding me tight

Making love til the early morning light
Only whets our appetite
This will be another sleepless night

Hold me, while the moons shines
In through the window
Let your love flow, hold me
We can orchestrate
That scenario
With the radio

And it looks like another sleepless night
Oh but darlin' that's alright
Just as long as you are holding me tight

Hold me, while the moons shines
In through the window
Let your love flow, hold me
We can orchestrate
That scenario
With the radio

And it looks like another sleepless night
Oh but darlin' that's alright
Just as long as you are holding me tight

Making love til the early morning light
Only whets our appetite
This will be another sleepless night
etc.

I noticed all of the recent songs I have posted either are about sex or refer to it somehow. Think I have been single too long!

[Dione]

OK, here's a song with NOTHING about sex in it. I love to play this song when it rains. I practically live in a desert, so rain is a real treat.

I Love a Rainy Night - Eddie Rabbitt

Well, I love a rainy night
I love a rainy night
I love to hear the thunder
Watch the lightning
When it lights up the sky
You know it makes me feel good

Well, I love a rainy night
It's such a beautiful sight
I love to feel the rain on my face
Taste the rain on my lips
In the moonlight shadows
Showers wash all my cares away
I wake up to a sunny day

Cause I love a rainy night
Yeah, I love a rainy night
Well, I love a rainy night
Well, I love a rainy night
Ooh ooh

I love a rainy night
I love a rainy night
I love to hear the thunder
Watch the lightning
When it lights up the sky
You know it makes me feel good

Well, I love a rainy night
It's such a beautiful sight
I love to feel the rain on my face
Taste the rain on my lips
In the moonlight shadows
Puts a song into this heart of mine
Puts a smile on my face every time

Cause I love a rainy night
Yeah, I love a rainy night
Ooh, I love a rainy night
Yeah, I love a rainy night
Ooh ooh

Showers wash all my cares away
I wake up to a sunny day

Well I love a rainy night
(you can see it in my eyes)
Yeah, I love a rainy night
(well it makes me high)
Well, I love a rainy night
(you know I do, yeah yeah)
Well, I love a rainy night
( I love you too)
Ooh ooh
etc.




(I want it to be spring! :( )

[Dione]

I need to revive this thread a little. I seem to have been the only one posting the last few times! So here's another one from me. I dedicate this to TyRoss:)

Fare Thee Well Love - The Rankin Family

Fare thee well love, fare thee well love
Far away, you must go
Take your heart love, take your heart love
Will we never meet again no more

Far across love, far across love
Over the mountains and country wide
Take my heart love, take my heart love
No one knows the tears I've cried

So I'll drink today, love
I'll sing to you love
In pauper's glory, my time I'll bide
No home or ties love, a restless rover
If I can't have you by my side

Oh come back love, oh come back love
The sun and moon, refuse to shine

Since I've gone love, gone away love
This lonely girl has had no peace of mind

So I'll drink today, love
I'll sing to you love
In pauper's glory my time I'll bide
No home or ties love, a restless rover
If I can't have you by my side

Fare thee well love, fare thee well love
Far away, you must go
Take my heart love, take your heart love
Will we never meet again no more
Will we never meet again no more
Will we never meet again no more

[QUINNtheESKIMO]

by: Bob Dylan
song title: Shelter From the Storm
from the album: Blood on the Tracks


'Twas in another lifetime, one of toil and blood
When blackness was a virtue and the road was full of mud
I came in from the wilderness, a creature void of form.
"Come in," she said,
"I'll give you shelter from the storm."

And if I pass this way again, you can rest assured
I'll always do my best for her, on that I give my word
In a world of steel-eyed death, and men who are fighting to be warm.
"Come in," she said,
"I'll give you shelter from the storm."

Not a word was spoke between us, there was little risk involved
Everything up to that point had been left unresolved.
Try imagining a place where it's always safe and warm.
"Come in," she said,
"I'll give you shelter from the storm."

I was burned out from exhaustion, buried in the hail,
Poisoned in the bushes an' blown out on the trail,
Hunted like a crocodile, ravaged in the corn.
"Come in," she said,
"I'll give you shelter from the storm."

Suddenly I turned around and she was standin' there
With silver bracelets on her wrists and flowers in her hair.
She walked up to me so gracefully and took my crown of thorns.
"Come in," she said,
"I'll give you shelter from the storm."

Now there's a wall between us, somethin' there's been lost
I took too much for granted, got my signals crossed.
Just to think that it all began on a long-forgotten morn.
"Come in," she said,
"I'll give you shelter from the storm."

Well, the deputy walks on hard nails and the preacher rides a mount
But nothing really matters much, it's doom alone that counts
And the one-eyed undertaker, he blows a futile horn.
"Come in," she said,
"I'll give you shelter from the storm."

I've heard newborn babies wailin' like a mournin' dove
And old men with broken teeth stranded without love.
Do I understand your question, man, is it hopeless and forlorn?
"Come in," she said,
"I'll give you shelter from the storm."

In a little hilltop village, they gambled for my clothes
I bargained for salvation an' they gave me a lethal dose.
I offered up my innocence and got repaid with scorn.
"Come in," she said,
"I'll give you shelter from the storm."

Well, I'm livin' in a foreign country but I'm bound to cross the line
Beauty walks a razor's edge, someday I'll make it mine.
If I could only turn back the clock to when God and her were born.
"Come in," she said,
"I'll give you shelter from the storm."

Sorry Seems To Be The Hardest Word
by Elton John

What have I got to do to make you love me
What have I got to do to make you care
What do I do when lightning strikes me
And I wake to find that you're not there

What do I do to make you want me
What have I got to do to be heard
What do I say when it's all over
And sorry seems to be the hardest word

It's sad, so sad
It's a sad, sad situation
And it's getting more and more absurd
It's sad, so sad
Why can't we talk it over
Oh it seems to me
That sorry seems to be the hardest word

What do I do to make you love me
What have I got to do to be heard
What do I do when lightning strikes me
What have I got to do
What have I got to do
When sorry seems to be the hardest word

Now that you’ve thrown me away
By Thomas Helmig

Now that you have burned me
Now that you have thrown me away
Now that you have put a knife in my back
Are you feeling good then, are you happy again?

Now that you’ve spend my money
Now that you’ve sucked all that resembles strength out of me
Now that you’ve made a fool of me
Are you feeling good then, are you happy again?

Don’t get me wrong, it’s not that I don’t have anything good to say
I’m sure it’ll come one day when reason returns
But now that I’m missing you, how can you be without me?
Then how can you be without me?
Then how can you be without me?

Now that you’ve burned me
Now that you’ve thrown me away
now that you’ve put a knife in my back
Are you feeling good then? are you happy again?

Don’t get me wrong, it’s not that I don’t have anything good to say
I’m sure it’ll come one day when reason returns
But now that I’m missing you, how can you be without me?

Don’t get me wrong it’s not that I don’t have anything better to say
It’ll probably come one day when reason returns
But when I’m missing you, then how can you be without me?
Then how can you be without me?
Then how can you be without me?

And the perculiar thing is this my friend, the song we sang on that fateful night, it didn't actually sound anything like this song!

New Order

Crystal

We're like crystal, we break easy
I'm a poor man, if you leave me
I'm applauded, then forgotten
It was summer, now it's autumn

I don't know what to say, you don't care anyway
I'm a man in a rage (just tell me what I've got to do), with a girl I betrayed
Here comes love, it's like honey
You can't buy it with money, you're not alone anymore,
(whenever you're here with me),
You shock me to the core, you shock me to the core

We're like crystal, it's not easy
With your love, you could feed me
Every man, and every woman
Needs someone, So keep it coming
Keep it coming, keep it coming, keep it coming
Keep it coming, keep it coming, keep it coming
Keep it coming

I don't know what to say, you don't care anyway
I'm a man in a rage (just tell me what I've got to do), with a girl I betrayed
Here comes love, it's like honey
You can't buy it with money, you're not alone anymore,
(whenever you're here with me),
You shock me to the core, you shock me to the core

Keep it coming, keep it coming, keep it coming
Keep it coming, keep it coming, keep it coming
Keep it coming, keep it coming, keep it coming


60 Miles An Hour

I don't know if I told you, but I'm seeking sanctuary
You'll never guess the things that I do
I'll have the devil round for tea
Don't you know that I'm here beside you
Can't you see that I can't relax
When I saw you in my rearview
You could've stopped me in my tracks

I'll be there for you when you want me to
I'll stand by your side like I always do
In the dead of night it'll be alright
'Cos I'll be there for you when you want me to

You can take me to an island, ride across the stormy sea
We can worship pagan idols, there together you and me
Why don't you run over here and rescue me?
You can drive down in your car
Why don't we both take a ride and turn that key
We'll drive at 60 miles an hour

I'll be there for you when you want me to
I'll stand by your side like I always do
In the dead of night it'll be alright
'Cos I'll be there for you when you want me to

I'll be there for you when you want me to
I'll stand by your side like I always do
In the dead of night it'll be alright
'Cos I'll be there for you when you want me to

I'll be there for you when you want me to
I'll stand by your side like I always do
In the dead of night it'll be alright
'Cos I'll be there for you when you want me to

I'll be there for you when you want me to
I'll stand by your side like I always do
In the dead of night it'll be alright
'Cos I'll be there for you when you want me to


Someone Like You

This can't be real
My heart is burning
How does it feel
Well let's say I'm learning
It had to come
The ship has landed
It's time to run
The crew are stranded

We're having the time of our lives
We're lost in a cruel paradise

Someone like you can make me feel like I used to do
Return my heart, yeah, make it feel like it does at the start
Someone like you, Someone like you, yeah

You're everything to me
The sweetest symphony
All that I try to be
You are my harmony
I guess what I mean to say
Is you keep the walls at bay
The children on holiday
Here comes the crowd

We're having the time of our lives
We're lost in a cruel paradise

Someone like you can make me feel like I used to do
Return my heart, yeah, make it feel like it does at the start
Someone like you, yeah, Someone like you, yeah

Thank You For Loving Me- Bon Jovi

It's hard for me to say the things
I want to say sometimes
There's no one here but you and me
And that broken old street light
Lock the doors
We'll leave the world outside
All I've got to give to you
Are these five words when I

Thank you for loving me
For being my eyes
When I couldn't see
For parting my lips
When I couldn't breathe
Thank you for loving me
Thank you for loving me

I never knew I had a dream
Until that dream was you
When I look into your eyes
The sky's a different blue
Cross my heart
I wear no disguise
If I tried, you'd make believe
That you believed my lies

Thank you for loving me
For being my eyes
When I couldn't see
For parting my lips
When I couldn't breathe
Thank you for loving me

You pick me up when I fall down
You ring the bell before they count me out
If I was drowning you would part the sea
And risk your own life to rescue me

[Solo]

Lock the doors
We'll leave the world outside
All I've got to give to you
Are these five words when I

Thank you for loving me
For being my eyes
When I couldn't see
You parted my lips
When I couldn't breathe
Thank you for loving me

When I couldn't fly
Oh, you gave me wings
You parted my lips
When I couldn't breathe
Thank you for loving me



I'll Be There For You- Bon Jovi

I guess this time you're really leaving
I heard your suitcase say goodbye
And as my broken heart lies bleeding
You say true love in suicide

You say you're cried a thousand rivers
And now you're swimming for the shore
You left me drowning in my tears
And you won't save me anymore

Now I'm praying to God you'll give me one more chance, girl

I'll be there for you
These five words I swear to you
When you breathe I want to be the air for you
I'll be there for you
I'd live and I'd die for you
Steal the sun from the sky for you
Words can't say what a love can do
I'll be there for you

I know you know we're had some good times
How they have their own hiding place
I can promise you tomorrow
But I can't buy back yesterday

And Baby you know my hands are dirty
But I wanted to be your valentine
I'll be the water when you get thirsty, baby
When you get drink, I'll be the wine

I'll be there for you
These five words I swear to you
When you breathe I want to be the air for you
I'll be there for you
I'd live and I'd die for you
Steal the sun from the sky for you
Words can't say what a love can do
I'll be there for you

[Solo]

And I wan't there when you were happy
I wasn't there when you were down
I didn't mean to miss your birthday, baby
I wish I'd seen you blow those candles out

I'll be there for you
These five words I swear to you
When you breathe I want to be the air for you
I'll be there for you
I'd live and I'd die for you
Steal the sun from the sky for you
Words can't say what a love can do
I'll be there for you

[Dione]

I am really into this song lately...and the stupid thing is I'm not even religious! But it's a great song.

Spanish Train - Chris de Burgh

There's a Spanish train that runs between
Quadalquivir and old Saville,
And at dead of night the whistle blows,
and people hear she's running still...

And then they hush their children back to sleep,
Lock the doors, upstairs they creep,
For it is said that the souls of the dead
Fill that train ten thousand deep!!

Well a railwayman lay dying with his people by his side,
His family were crying, knelt in prayer before he died,
But above his head just a-waiting for the dead,
Was the Devil with a twinkle in his eye,
"Well God's not around and look what I've found,
this one's mine!!"

Just then the Lord himself appeared in a blinding flash of light,
And shouted at the devil, "Get thee hence to endless night!!"
But the Devil just grinned and said "I may have sinned,
But there's no need to push me around,
I got him first so you can do your worst,
He's going underground!!"

"But I think I'll give you one more chance"
said the Devil with a smile,
"So throw away that stupid lance,
It's really not your style",
"Joker is the name, Poker is the game,
we'll play right here on this bed,
And then we'll bet for the biggest stakes yet,
the souls of the dead!!"

And I said "Look out, Lord, he's going to win,
The sun is down and the night is riding in,
That train is dead on time, many souls are on the line,
Oh Lord, he's going to win!.."

Well the railwayman he cut the cards
and he dealt them each a hand of five
And for the Lord he was praying hard
or that train he'd have to drive...
Well the Devil he had three aces and a king,
and the Lord, he was running for a straight,
he had the queen and the knave and the nine and ten of spades,
All he needed was the eight...

And then the Lord he called for one more card,
but he drew the diamond eight,
And the Devil said to the son of God,
"I believe you've got it straight,
So deal me one for the time has come
to see who'll be the king of this place,
But as he spoke, from beneath his cloak,
he slipped another ace...

Ten thousand souls was the opening bid,
and it soon went up to fifty-nine,
but the Lord didn't see what the Devil did,
and he said "that suits me fine",
"I'll raise you high to hundred and five,
and forever put an end to your sin",
But the Devil let out a mighty shout, "My hand wins!!"

And I said "Lord, oh Lord, you let him win,
The sun is down and the night is riding in,
That train is dead on time, many souls are on the line,
Oh Lord, don't let him win..."

Well that Spanish train still runs between,
Quadalquivir and old Saville,
And at dead of night the whistle blows,
And people fear she's running still...
And far away in some recess
The Lord and the Devil are now playing chess,
The Devil still cheats and wins more souls,
And as for the Lord, well, he's just doing his best...

And I said "Lord, oh Lord, you've got to win,
The sun is down and the night is riding in,
That train is still on time, Oh my soul is on the line,
Oh Lord, you've got to win..."

A few questions that I need to know
How you could ever hurt me so
I need to know what i've done wrong
And how long it's been going on
Was it that I never paid enough attention
Or did I not give enough affection
Not only will your answers keep me sane
But i'll know never to make the same mistake again
You can tell me to my face
Or even on the phone
You can write it in a letter
Either way i've have to know
Did I never treat you right
Did I always start the fight
Either way i'm going out of my mind
All the answers to my questions I have to find

My head's spinnin'
Boy i'm in a daze
I feel isolated
Don't wanna communicate
I take a shower
I will scour
I will roam
To find peace of mind
The happy mind
I once owned yeah

Flexing vocabulary runs right through me
The alphabet runs right from a to zee
Conversations, hesatations in my mind
You got my conscience
Asking questions that I can't find
I'm not crazy
I'm sure I aint done nothing wrong, no
I'm just waiting cos I heard that this feeling won't last that long

chorus
Never ever have I ever felt so low
When you gonna take me out of this black hole
Never ever have I ever felt so sad
The way i'm feeling yeah you got me feeling really bad
Never ever have I had to find
I've had to dig away to find my own piece of mind
I've never ever had my conscience to fight
The way i'm feeling yeah it just don't feel right

I'll keep searching
Deep within my soul
For all the answers
Don't wanna hurt no more
I need peace gotta feel at ease
Need to be
Free from pain
Go insane
My heart aches yeah

Sometimes vocabulary runs through my head
The alphabet runs right from a to zed
Conversations, hesatations in my mind
You got my concience asking questions that i can't find
I'm not crazy
I'm sure I aint done nothing wrong
Now i'm just awaiting cos I heard that this feeling won't last that long

The Drinking Song - Moxy Fruvous

And the Band Played On
As the helicopters whirred
Drunk on the lawn in a nuclear dawn
Our senses finally blurred

He was a rock
To the end a solid reminder
Couldn't deny a friend
We lived in the noise
And the sweet amber poison
Peekin' up the skirt of the end
And we'd drink
Two gnarly dudes and some records
Much like plates of black food
We filled up our faces
Saw some far places
Stood on the roof in the nude

And the Band Played On
As the helicopters whirred
Drunk on the lawn in a nuclear dawn
Our senses finally blurred

Between poles
He said "We're like cows in the grass"
Chaise lounging around
Standing up
Falling down
'Till we no longer opened our eyes
And we'd drink
Ever notice how drinkings like war
Cup o' troops o'er the gums
To the end of our health a campaign 'gainst myself
Armed with burbons and scotches and rums

And the Band Played On
As the helicopters whirred
Drunk on the lawn in a nuclear dawn
Our senses finally blurred

Think of bombs
We're poised on the edge of disaster
Wether it's right or it's wrong
We opened the window
Played some nintendo
Sang a few bars of some pretty old song

Irene goodnight
Irene goodnight
Goodnight Irene
Goodnight Irene
I'll see you in my dreams

Oh to dream
Those impotent bones of extinction
Flying graceful and free
None but the best
Cause a man cannot rest
Till he's finally beaten his me

And the Band Played On
As the helicopters whirred
Drunk on the lawn in a nuclear dawn
Our senses finally blurred

Till the end
He passed out on the sundeck that morning
Quietly saying goodbye
But I was so hammered
I sputtered and stammered
Told him he couldn't just die
He was a rock
Went straight for his own armageddon
Face froze in a grin
Ambulance flyin' in
I never drank again
Can't really call that a loss or a win

And the Band Played On
As the helicopters whirred
Drunk on the lawn in a nuclear dawn
Our senses finally blurred

My Best Friend- Tim McGraw

I never had no one
I could count on
I've been let down so many times
I was tired of hurtin'
So tired of searchin'
'Til you walked into my life
It was a feelin'
I'd never known
And for the first time
I didn't feel alone

You're more than a lover
There could never be another
To make me feel the way you do
Oh we just get closer
I fall in love all over
Everytime I look at you
I don't know where I'd be
Without you here with me
Life with you makes perfect sense
You're my best friend
You're my best friend, oh yeah

You stand by me
And you believe in me
Like nobody ever has
When my world goes crazy
You're right there to save me
You make me see how much I have
And I still tremble
When we touch
And oh the look in your eyes
When we make love

You're more than a lover
There could never be another
To make me feel the way you do
Oh we just get closer
I fall in love all over
Everytime I look at you
And I don't know where I'd be
Without you here with me
Life with you makes perfect sense
You're my best friend
You're my best friend

You're more than a lover
There could never be another
To make me feel the way you do
Oh we just get closer
I fall in love all over
Everytime I look at you
And I don't know where I'd be
Without you here with me
Life with you makes perfect sense
You're my best friend
You're my best friend (my best friend)
You're my best friend (my best friend)


When You Say Nothing At All- Alison Krauss
It's amazing how you can speak right to my heart
Without saying a word, you can light up the dark
Try as I may, I could never explain
What I hear when you don't say a thing

The smile on your face lets me know that you need me
There's a truth in your eyes sayin' you'll never leave me
The touch of your hand says you'll catch me if ever I fall
You say it best when you say nothing at all

All day long I can hear people talking out loud
But when you hold me near, you drown out the crowd
Old Mr. Webster could never define
What's being said between your heart and mine

The smile on your face lets me know that you need me
There's a truth in your eyes sayin' you'll never leave me
The touch of your hand says you'll catch me if ever I fall
You say it best when you say nothing at all

(Instrumental break)

The smile on your face lets me know that you need me
There's a truth in your eyes sayin' you'll never leave me
The touch of your hand says you'll catch me if ever I fall
You say it best when you say nothing at all

[KellyM]

if you can give it
i can take it
coz if this heart is gonna break
its gonna take alot to break it

just like jesse james - cher

not an awesome song, but i love the lyrics

my favourite song of all time is romeo and juliet - dire straits, also tunnel of love dire straits

[sabin26]

I know this song is in a lot of people's head right now:

"Bring Me To Life"
(feat. Paul McCoy)

How can you see into my eyes
like open doors.
Leading you down into my core
where I've become so numb.
Without a soul
my spirit's sleeping somewhere cold
until you find it there and lead it back home.

(Wake me up.
Wake me up inside.
I can't wake up.
Wake me up inside.
Save me.
Call my name and save me from the dark.
Wake me up.
Bid my blood to run.
I can't wake up.
Before I come undone.
Save me.
Save me from the nothing I've become.)

Now that I know what I'm without
you can't just leave me.
Breathe into me and make me real
Bring me to life.

[Chorus]

Bring me to life.
I've been living a lie
There's nothing inside.
Bring me to life.

Frozen inside without your touch,
without your love, darling.
Only you are the life among the dead.

All of this sight
I can't believe I couldn't see
Kept in the dark
but you were there in front of me

I've been sleeping a 1000 years it seems.
I've got to open my eyes to everything.

Without a thought
Without a voice
Without a soul

Don't let me die here
There must be something wrong.
Bring me to life.

[Chorus]

Bring me to life.
I've been living a lie
There's nothing inside.

Bring me to life

[evenstar]

"Outside" staind

And you
Bring me to my knees
Again
All the times
That I could beg you please
In vain
All the times
That I felt insecure
For you
And I leave
My burdens at the door

But I'm on the outside
I'm looking in
I can see through you
See your true colors
'Cause inside your ugly
You're ugly like me
I can see through you
See to the real you

All the times
That I felt like this won't end
It's for you
And I taste
What I could never have
It was from you
All the times
That I've cried
My intentions
Full of pride
But I waste
More time than anyone

But I'm on the outside
And I'm looking in
I can see through you
See your true colors
'Cause inside you're ugly
You're ugly like me
I can see through you
See to the real you

All the times
That I've cried
All this wasted
It's all inside
And I feel
All this pain
Stuffed it down
It's back again
And I lie
Here in bed
All alone
I can't mend
But I feel
Tomorrow will be OK

But I'm on the outside
And I'm looking in
I can see through you
See your true colors
'Cause inside you're ugly
You're ugly like me
I can see through you
See to the real you

Black Balloon" goo goo dolls

Baby's black balloon makes her fly
I almost fell into that hole in your life
And you're not thinking 'bout tomorrow
Cuz you were the same as me
But on your knees

A thousand other boys could never reach you
How could I have been the one?
I saw the world spin beneath you
And scatter like ice from the spoon that was your womb

Comin' down the world turned over
And angels fall without you there
And I go on as you get colder
Or are you someone's prayer?

You know the lies they always told you
And the love you never knew
What's the things they never showed you
That swallow the light from the sun inside your room, yeah

Comin' down the world turned over
And angels fall without you there
And I go on as you get colder
Always someone there

And there's no time left for losin'
When you stand they fall, yeah

Comin' down the world turned over
And angels fall without you there
And I go on as you get colder
All because I'm
Comin' down the years turn over
And angels fall without you there
And I'll go on and I'll lead you home and
All because I'm
All because I'm
And I'll become
What you became to me


"Good Riddance (Time Of Your Life)" greenday

Another turning point, a fork stuck in the road.
Time grabs you by the wrist, directs you where to do.
So make the best of this test, and don't ask why.
It's not a question, but a lesson learned in time.

It's something unpredictable, but in the end is right.
I hope you had the time of your life.

So take the photographs, and still frames in your mind.
Hang it on a shelf of good health and good time.
Tattoos of memories and dead skin on trial.
For what it's worth, it was worth all the while.
I hope you had the time of your life.

I hope you had the time of your life.

Here's my all time favorite Bob Dylan song:
I love songs that tell a story, and if any of you have seen "The Hurricane" starring Denzel Washington, this story will be very familier to you. It's a really long song, but please take the time to read the lyrics. I think some will enjoy it.

The Hurricane
By: Bob Dylan

Pistol shots ring out in the barroom night
Enter Patty Valentine from the upper hall.
She sees the bartender in a pool of blood,
Cries out, "My God, they killed them all!"
Here comes the story of the Hurricane,
The man the authorities came to blame
For somethin' that he never done.
Put in a prison cell, but one time he could-a been
The champion of the world.

Three bodies lyin' there does Patty see
And another man named Bello, movin' around mysteriously.
"I didn't do it," he says, and he throws up his hands
"I was only robbin' the register, I hope you understand.
I saw them leavin'," he says, and he stops
"One of us had better call up the cops."
And so Patty calls the cops
And they arrive on the scene with their red lights flashin'
In the hot New Jersey night.

Meanwhile, far away in another part of town
Rubin Carter and a couple of friends are drivin' around.
Number one contender for the middleweight crown
Had no idea what kinda **** was about to go down
When a cop pulled him over to the side of the road
Just like the time before and the time before that.
In Paterson that's just the way things go.
If you're black you might as well not show up on the street
'Less you wanna draw the heat.

Alfred Bello had a partner and he had a rap for the cops.
Him and Arthur Dexter Bradley were just out prowlin' around
He said, "I saw two men runnin' out, they looked like middleweights
They jumped into a white car with out-of-state plates."
And Miss Patty Valentine just nodded her head.
Cop said, "Wait a minute, boys, this one's not dead"
So they took him to the infirmary
And though this man could hardly see
They told him that he could identify the guilty men.

Four in the mornin' and they haul Rubin in,
Take him to the hospital and they bring him upstairs.
The wounded man looks up through his one dyin' eye
Says, "Wha'd you bring him in here for? He ain't the guy!"
Yes, here's the story of the Hurricane,
The man the authorities came to blame
For somethin' that he never done.
Put in a prison cell, but one time he could-a been
The champion of the world.

Four months later, the ghettos are in flame,
Rubin's in South America, fightin' for his name
While Arthur Dexter Bradley's still in the robbery game
And the cops are puttin' the screws to him, lookin' for somebody to blame.
"Remember that murder that happened in a bar?"
"Remember you said you saw the getaway car?"
"You think you'd like to play ball with the law?"
"Think it might-a been that fighter that you saw runnin' that night?"
"Don't forget that you are white."

Arthur Dexter Bradley said, "I'm really not sure."
Cops said, "A poor boy like you could use a break
We got you for the motel job and we're talkin' to your friend Bello
Now you don't wanta have to go back to jail, be a nice fellow.
You'll be doin' society a favor.
That sonofa***** is brave and gettin' braver.
We want to put his ass in stir
We want to pin this triple murder on him
He ain't no Gentleman Jim."

Rubin could take a man out with just one punch
But he never did like to talk about it all that much.
It's my work, he'd say, and I do it for pay
And when it's over I'd just as soon go on my way
Up to some paradise
Where the trout streams flow and the air is nice
And ride a horse along a trail.
But then they took him to the jailhouse
Where they try to turn a man into a mouse.

All of Rubin's cards were marked in advance
The trial was a pig-circus, he never had a chance.
The judge made Rubin's witnesses drunkards from the slums
To the white folks who watched he was a revolutionary bum
And to the black folks he was just a crazy ******.
No one doubted that he pulled the trigger.
And though they could not produce the gun,
The D.A. said he was the one who did the deed
And the all-white jury agreed.

Rubin Carter was falsely tried.
The crime was murder "one," guess who testified?
Bello and Bradley and they both baldly lied
And the newspapers, they all went along for the ride.
How can the life of such a man
Be in the palm of some fool's hand?
To see him obviously framed
Couldn't help but make me feel ashamed to live in a land
Where justice is a game.

Now all the criminals in their coats and their ties
Are free to drink martinis and watch the sun rise
While Rubin sits like Buddha in a ten-foot cell
An innocent man in a living hell.
That's the story of the Hurricane,
But it won't be over till they clear his name
And give him back the time he's done.
Put in a prison cell, but one time he could-a been
The champion of the world.

Making your way in the world today
Takes everything you’ve got
Taking a brake from all your worries
Sure would help a lot
Wouldn’t you like to get away?

All those nights when you’ve got no lights
The check is in the mail
And your little angel
Hung the cat by its tail
And your third Fiancé didn’t show

Sometimes you want to go
Where everybody knows your name
And their always glad you came

You wanna be where you can see
Your troubles are all the same
You wanna be where everyone knows your name

Roll out of bed mister Coffee’s dead
The morning’s looking bright
Your shrink ran off to Europe
And didn’t even write
And your husband wants to be a girl

Be glad there’s one plaice in the world
Where everyone knows your name
And they’re always glad you came

You want to go where people go
People are all the same
You wanna go where everyone knows your name

[Dione]

Greatest TV theme song of all time! :applaud:

That is the long version too.

Running Away

I don't want you to give it all up
And leave your own life collecting dust
And I don't want you to feel sorry for me
You never gave us a chance to be
And I don't need you to be by my side
To tell me that everything's alright
I just wanted you to tell me the truth
You know I'd do that for you

Why are you running away?
Why are you running away?

Cause I did enough to show you that I
Was willing to give and sacrifice
And I was the one who was lifting you up
When you thought your life had had enough
And when I get close, you turn away
There's nothing that I can do or say
So now I need you to tell me the truth
You know I'd do that for you

So why are you running away?
Why are you running away?

Is it me, is it you
Nothing that I can do
To make you change your mind
Is it me, is it you
Nothing that I can do
Is it a waste of time?

Is it me, is it you
Nothing that I can do
To make you change your mind

So why are you running away?
Why are you running away?
...What is it I've got to say...
So why are you running away?
...To make you admit you're afraid...
Why are you running away?

THE EXIES

My Goddess

My Goddess
I was knee deep in a sick love
I was cross eyed under your drug
Schizo savior, mad messiah
Fatal worship you inspired

Gone, I don’t believe in you now
I’ve seen too much
I don’t believe in you now
My Goddess

You were counting on a freefall
You laid your bet I would lose all
Chalk up one less crucifixion
I kicked that sick, old addiction

Down, I don’t believe in you now
I’ve seen too much
I don’t believe in you now
My Goddess

Now you see what you get when you lose yourself
What you get when you don’t know who you are
when you don’t know who you are
My Goddess

Sorrow - Pink Floyd

The sweet smell of a great sorrow lies over the land
Plumes of smoke rise and merge into the leaden sky:
A man lies and dreams of green fields and rivers,
But awakes to a morning with no reason for waking

He's haunted by the memory of a lost paradise
In his youth or a dream, he can't be precise
He's chained forever to a world that's departed
It's not enough, it's not enough

His blood has frozen & curdled with fright
His knees have trembled & given way in the night
His hand has weakened at the moment of truth
His step has faltered

One world, one soul
Time pass, the river rolls

And he talks to the river of lost love and dedication
And silent replies that swirl invitation
Flow dark and troubled to an oily sea
A grim intimation of what is to be

There's an unceasing wind that blows through this night
And there's dust in my eyes, that blinds my sight
And silence that speaks so much louder than words,
Of promises broken.

[QUINNtheESKIMO]

by Bob Dylan
song title: Bob Dylan's 115th Dream
from the album: Bringing it all Back Home

now, keep in mind that the song is supposed to be like a dream, so a lot of things happen that don't necisarrily have anything to do with each other. I think he did a great job of writing a song, that is very much like a dream. Its funny too!-one of Bob's best, but lesser known qualities in his songwriting. anyway, with out further adieu:

I was riding on the Mayflower
When I thought I spied some land
I yelled for Captain Arab
I have yuh understand
Who came running to the deck
Said, "Boys, forget the whale
Look on over yonder
Cut the engines
Change the sail
Haul on the bowline"
We sang that melody
Like all tough sailors do
When they are far away at sea

"I think I'll call it America"
I said as we hit land
I took a deep breath
I fell down, I could not stand
Captain Arab he started
Writing up some deeds
He said, "Let's set up a fort
And start buying the place with beads"
Just then this cop comes down the street
Crazy as a loon
He throw us all in jail
For carryin' harpoons

Ah me I busted out
Don't even ask me how
I went to get some help
I walked by a Guernsey cow
Who directed me down
To the Bowery slums
Where people carried signs around
Saying, "Ban the bums"
I jumped right into line
Sayin', "I hope that I'm not late"
When I realized I hadn't eaten
For five days straight

I went into a restaurant
Lookin' for the cook
I told them I was the editor
Of a famous etiquette book
The waitress he was handsome
He wore a powder blue cape
I ordered some suzette, I said
"Could you please make that crepe"
Just then the whole kitchen exploded
From boilin' fat
Food was flying everywhere
And I left without my hat

Now, I didn't mean to be nosy
But I went into a bank
To get some bail for Arab
And all the boys back in the tank
They asked me for some collateral
And I pulled down my pants
They threw me in the alley
When up comes this girl from France
Who invited me to her house
I went, but she had a friend
Who knocked me out
And robbed my boots
And I was on the street again

Well, I rapped upon a house
With the U.S. flag upon display
I said, "Could you help me out
I got some friends down the way"
The man says, "Get out of here
I'll tear you limb from limb"
I said, "You know they refused Jesus, too"
He said, "You're not Him
Get out of here before I break your bones
I ain't your pop"
I decided to have him arrested
And I went looking for a cop

I ran right outside
And I hopped inside a cab
I went out the other door
This Englishman said, "Fab"
As he saw me leap a hot dog stand
And a chariot that stood
Parked across from a building
Advertising brotherhood
I ran right through the front door
Like a hobo sailor does
But it was just a funeral parlor
And the man asked me who I was

I repeated that my friends
Were all in jail, with a sigh
He gave me his card
He said, "Call me if they die"
I shook his hand and said goodbye
Ran out to the street
When a bowling ball came down the road
And knocked me off my feet
A pay phone was ringing
It just about blew my mind
When I picked it up and said hello
This foot came through the line

Well, by this time I was fed up
At tryin' to make a stab
At bringin' back any help
For my friends and Captain Arab
I decided to flip a coin
Like either heads or tails
Would let me know if I should go
Back to ship or back to jail
So I hocked my sailor suit
And I got a coin to flip
It came up tails
It rhymed with sails
So I made it back to the ship

Well, I got back and took
The parkin' ticket off the mast
I was ripping it to shreds
When this coastguard boat went past
They asked me my name
And I said, "Captain Kidd"
They believed me but
They wanted to know
What exactly that I did
I said for the Pope of Eruke
I was employed
They let me go right away
They were very paranoid

Well, the last I heard of Arab
He was stuck on a whale
That was married to the deputy
Sheriff of the jail
But the funniest thing was
When I was leavin' the bay
I saw three ships a-sailin'
They were all heading my way
I asked the captain what his name was
And how come he didn't drive a truck
He said his name was Columbus
I just said, "Good luck."

Nice choice ;)

Why Does It Have To Be (Wrong or Right) - Restless Heart

It's no secret, somebody waits at home for you
And I know how hard it seems for you to do
So if you really believe this love is so wrong
We don't have to carry on
But still I wonder
Why does it have to be wrong or right
Why does it have to be one way or the other
Won't somebody please, please tell me
Why does it have to be black or white
Why do we have to hurt one to love another
Oh, tell me why
Why does it have to be?

Can't say that you didn't know where this might lead
And I know I couldn't have been that hard to read
But we both know this is not where you belong
There's no need to carry on
Ah, but I can't help but wonder

Why does it have to be wrong or right
Why does it have to be one way or the other
Won't somebody please, please tell me
Why does it have to be black or white
Why do we have to hurt one to love another
Oh, tell me why
Why does it have to be

Why does it have to be wrong or right
Why does it have to be one way or the other
(Won't somebody please)
Won't somebody please, please tell me
Why does it have to be black or white
Why do we have to hurt one to love another
(Oh, tell me)
(Oh, tell me)
Oh, tell me why

Oh, tell me why does it have to be wrong or right
Why does it have to be one way or the other
Won't somebody please, please tell me
Why does it have to be black or white
Why do we have to hurt one to love another
(Oh, tell me)
Oh, tell me why

(Oh, tell me)
Why does it have to be wrong or right
Why does it have to be one way or the other
Won't somebody please, please tell me
Why does it have to be black or white
Why do we have to hurt one to love another

2Pac
"Dear Mama"

You are appreciated

[Verse One: 2Pac]

When I was young me and my mama had beef
Seventeen years old kicked out on the streets
Though back at the time, I never thought I'd see her face
Ain't a woman alive that could take my mama's place
Suspended from school; and scared to go home, I was a fool
with the big boys, breakin all the rules
I shed tears with my baby sister
Over the years we was poorer than the other little kids
And even though we had different daddy's, the same drama
When things went wrong we'd blame mama
I reminice on the stress I caused, it was hell
Huggin on my mama from a jail cell
And who'd think in elementary?
Heeey! I see the penitentiary, one day
And runnin from the police, that's right
Mama catch me, put a whoopin to my backside
And even as a crack fiend, mama
You always was a black queen, mama
I finally understand
for a woman it ain't easy tryin to raise a man
You always was committed
A poor single mother on welfare, tell me how ya did it
There's no way I can pay you back
But the plan is to show you that I understand
You are appreciated

[Chorus: Reggie Green & "Sweet Franklin" w/ 2Pac]

Lady...
Don't cha know we love ya? Sweet lady
Dear mama
Place no one above ya, sweet lady
You are appreciated
Don't cha know we love ya?

[second and third chorus, "And dear mama" instead of "Dear mama"]

[Verse Two: 2Pac]

Now ain't nobody tell us it was fair
No love from my daddy cause the coward wasn't there
He passed away and I didn't cry, cause my anger
wouldn't let me feel for a stranger
They say I'm wrong and I'm heartless, but all along
I was lookin for a father he was gone
I hung around with the Thugs, and even though they sold drugs
They showed a young brother love
I moved out and started really hangin
I needed money of my own so I started slangin
I ain't guilty cause, even though I sell rocks
It feels good puttin money in your mailbox
I love payin rent when the rent's due
I hope ya got the diamond necklace that I sent to you
Cause when I was low you was there for me
And never left me alone because you cared for me
And I could see you comin home after work late
You're in the kitchen tryin to fix us a hot plate
Ya just workin with the scraps you was given
And mama made miracles every Thanksgivin
But now the road got rough, you're alone
You're tryin to raise two bad kids on your own
And there's no way I can pay you back
But my plan is to show you that I understand
You are appreciated

[Chorus]

[Verse Three: 2Pac]

Pour out some liquor and I reminsce, cause through the drama
I can always depend on my mama
And when it seems that I'm hopeless
You say the words that can get me back in focus
When I was sick as a little kid
To keep me happy there's no limit to the things you did
And all my childhood memories
Are full of all the sweet things you did for me
And even though I act craaazy
I gotta thank the Lord that you made me
There are no words that can express how I feel
You never kept a secret, always stayed real
And I appreciate, how you raised me
And all the extra love that you gave me
I wish I could take the pain away
If you can make it through the night there's a brighter day
Everything will be alright if ya hold on
It's a struggle everyday, gotta roll on
And there's no way I can pay you back
But my plan is to show you that I understand
You are appreciated

[Chorus]

Sweet lady
And dear mama

Dear mama

Basically, can't **** with me

[Verse One:]

I came to bring the pain hardcore from the brain
Let's go inside my astral plane
Find out my mental's based on instrumental
records hey, so I can write monumental
Methods, I'm not the King
But niggaz is decaf I stick em for the CREAM

Deep as the abyss and brothers is mad fish accept it
In your Cross Colour, clothes you've crossed over
Then got Totally Krossed Out and Kris Kross
Who da boss? Niggaz get tossed to the side
And I'm the dark side of the Force
Of course it's the Method, Man from the Wu-Tang Clan
I be hectic, and comin for the head piece protect it

Bustin at me bruh, now bust it
Styles, I gets buckwild
Method Man on some ****, pullin niggaz files
I'm sick, insane, crazy, Drivin Miss Daisy

[Chorus:]

Is it real son, is it really real son
Let me know it's real son, if it's really real
Something I could feel son, load it up and kill one
Want it raw deal son, if it's really real

[Interlude: Booster]

And when I was a lil stereo (stereo)
I listened to some champion (champion)
I always wondered (wondered)
Will now I be the numba one? (Tical! hahaha)
Now you listen to de gargon (Gargon!)
And de gargon summary
And any man dat come test me (test me)
Me gwanna lick out dem brains (it's like that)

[Verse Two:]

Brothers want to hang with the Meth bring the rope
the only way you hang is by the neck nigga poke
off the set comin to your projects
Take it as a threat, better yet it's a promise
Comin from a vet on some old Vietnam ****
Nigga you can bet your bottom dollar hey I bomb ****
And it's gonna get even worse word to God
It's the Wu comin through sickin niggaz for they garments
Movin on your left, southpaw em it's the Meth
Came to represent and carve my name in your chest
You can come test realize you're no contest
Son I'm the gun that won that old Wild West
Quick on the draw with my hands on the four
nine three eleven with the rugged rhymes galore
Check it cause I think not when this hip-hops like proper
Rhymes be the proof while I'm drinkin 90 proof
Huh vodka, no OJ, no straw
When you give it to me aiy, give it to me raw
I've learned when you drink Absolut straight it burns
Enough to give my chest hairs a perm
I don't need a chemical blow to pull a hoe
All I need is Chemical Bank to pay da mo'

What, basically that, Meth-Tical, ninety-four style
Word up we be hazardous *car crashing* *horn passing me*
Northern spicy brown mustard hoes
We have to stick you
[horn sound of car racing by]

[Chorus]

[Outro:]

I'll ****in, I'll ****in cut your kneecaps off
and make you kneel in some staircase piss

I'll ****in, cut your eyelids off
and feed you nuthin but sleepin pills

You mother****ers
(So??) So **** the hoe
**** the hoe

LENNY KRAVITZ LYRICS

"Always On The Run"

My mama said
That your life is a gift
And my mama said
There's much weight you will lift
And my mama said
Leave those bad boys alone
And my mama said
Be home before the dawn
And my mama said
You can be rich or poor
But my mama said
You can be big or small

But I'm always on the run,
Always on the run,
But I'm always on the run.

My mama said
That it's good to be fruitful
But my mama said
Don't take more than a mouthful
And my mama said
That it's good to be natural
And my mama said
That it's good to be factual

But I'm always on the run,
Always on the run,
But I'm always on the run.

My mama said
Baby don't ride that crazy horse
And my mama said
You must push with much force
And my mama said
Go get all that you're after
And my mama said
That love's all that matters

But I'm always on the run,
Always on the run,
But I'm always on the run ( on the run )

But I'm always on the run,
Always on the run,
But I'm always on the run.

Hmm, what say mama, you want it
Hmm, right now, got to hold on, yeah !.

(now english version :D)

Ever since I first met you
I've been shining in my heart
My love causes so much sorrow
I broke off my glance so quietly

Your insignificant gestures
And your ordinary words
Every time I think of them
I feel like I'm going to cry

*chorus*
Love brings a lonely lonely heart
I'm just all alone now
Lonely lonely heart
All the joy and pain I feel, I'm always
Dreaming it by myself
Love brings a lonely lonely heart
But I know that someday it will come
While I'm being held in your strong arms
Wanting to be together with you...

Right at your side, I'm standing there
I'm always waiting for you
But you don't return my advances
I've been disappointed so many times

Then I fall in love with someone
Why does it cause me so much pain
All alone, by myself
It's like I've fallen sick

*chorus*
And now it's baby baby love
Please, I beg of you
Baby baby love
When I feel I going to lose to this loneliness
I have to look into my hand mirror
And now it's baby baby love
Seems like every day I'm crying through the night
I long for the past, smiling to myself
Wanting to be together with you...

(guitar solo)

Nobody knows about these
Secret tears
The one to wipe them away is
Only
Not just myself
Wanting to be together with you...

*chorus*
Love brings a lonely lonely heart
I'm just all alone now
Lonely lonely heart
All the joy and pain I feel, I'm always
Dreaming it by myself
Love brings a lonely lonely heart
But I know that someday it will come
While I'm being held in your strong arms
Wanting to be together with you...

(english lyrics)

*chorus*
Yes, kiss me I want to always be in love
Stay with me Smile, until I can remember

When I heard that voice, I felt something
It seemed as though our meeting was led by destiny
The gentle wind hides the tears that seem to spill

In this sky shine thousands of stars
but each and every one of them has a story
In the profile that I was quietly looking at, I search for tomorrow, but
somewhere in those clear eyes, you were just smiling

*chorus*
Yes, kiss me I want to always be in love
Stay with me Smile, until I can remember

(sorry but i can't find out the translation to the last two parts of the second verse that's in japanese)

[smokiechimp]

I gotta learn how to lose and to choose my own wars
I gotta understand it's not me against the world no more
When you are sure as hell then I don't know
You are so pure and well when I am low
When you say "Sure as hell" then I say no

A spoke in your whell yeah like a bugging fly
A thorn in your side just like a constant red eye
On being an ass I've really been a pro
So can i say no?!

I know I've tread on your toes and it shows who I am
And all these situations and relations from the start
They were damned
I feel a need to stop when you say go
I am indeed a flop if you say
I feel a need to stop so I say no

A spoke in your whell yeah like a bugging fly
A thorn in your side just like a constant red eye
On being an ass I've really been a pro
What can i say?

When The Lights Go Down- Faith Hill

When the lights go down
He'll be fillin' a pan with a broom in his hand
In some dive across town
He'll be wipin' the bar, and moppin' the floor
Countin' his tips and lockin' the doors
Restlin' with the devil that tells him to pour another round

When the lights go down
She'll be callin' her friends from the Mercedes Benz
But it's too late now
They were there for the fame, the flash and thrill
The drop of the name, the parties, and the pills
So another star falls from the Hollywood hills
Without a sound

When the lights go down
And there's nothing left to be
When the lights go down
And the truth is all you see

When you feel that hole
Inside your soul
Wonder what you're made of
Well we all find out
When the lights go down

When the lights go down
At the end of the day
With this game that I play
Has gone another round
As I lay there alone in this big empty bed
Nothing but thoughts of you in my head
I think of the things that I wish I had said
When you were still around

When the lights go down
And there's nothing left to be
When the lights go down
And the truth is all you see

And I wonder if all my life's about
The sum of all my fears and all my doubts
Yeah, when the lights go down

When the lights go down
When theres nothing left to be
When the lights go down
And the truth is all you see
When you feel that hole
Inside your soul
Wonder what your made of
Well we all find out
When the lights go down

Oh, when the lights go down

Bob Dylan's first great work!
titled "Song To Woody"
from the ablum "Bob Dylan", 1962

I'm out here a thousand miles from my home,
Walkin' a road other men have gone down.
I'm seein' your world of people and things,
Your paupers and peasants and princes and kings.

Hey, hey Woody Guthrie, I wrote you a song
'Bout a funny ol' world that's a-comin' along.
Seems sick an' it's hungry, it's tired an' it's torn,
It looks like it's a-dyin' an' it's hardly been born.

Hey, Woody Guthrie, but I know that you know
All the things that I'm a-sayin' an' a-many times more.
I'm a-singin' you the song, but I can't sing enough,
'Cause there's not many men that done the things that you've done.

Here's to Cisco an' Sonny an' Leadbelly too,
An' to all the good people that traveled with you.
Here's to the hearts and the hands of the men
That come with the dust and are gone with the wind.

I'm a-leaving' tomorrow, but I could leave today,
Somewhere down the road someday.
The very last thing that I'd want to do
Is to say I've been hittin' some hard travelin' too.

Reboot Third Season Recap

The Web invaded Mainframe.
Sprite and virus battled side by side.
Attempting to reclaim the city
From the rift which opened wide.
But Megabyte betrayed Bob and
He threw him deep inside the pit.
The pit was closed
and Bob was hosed
and all that he could say was...
NO!
Without Bob to protect us
We thought we would
have no barrier,
From he who would infect us,
except Enzo, which was scarier.
The city shivered terrified
from fear of the Infector's touch.
I guess your fear was verified,
I wasn't a protector much.

I guess our fear was verified,
he wasn't a protector much.
I guess our fear was verified,
he wasn't a protector much.
I guess our fear was verified,
he wasn't a protector-ector much!

It wasn't Enzo's fault at first,
he only was a little Sprite.
At best he was the worst but then
he slowly learned to do it right.
And just as he was getting skilled
a Game came down he couldn't win.
I thought for sure
they'd both been killed,
first Bob, then Enzo. Not again!
And just as he was getting skilled,
a Game came down he couldn't win.
She thought for sure
they'd both been killed,
first Bob, then Enzo. Not again!

I went from Game to Game,
I aged, I grew and lost my innocence.
I soon became enraged by each
and every bad experience.
The Sprite you knew was gone,
I had become a grim aggressor man.
I knew from that point on
that I was truly Bob's successor man.
The Sprite we knew was gone,
he had become a grim aggressor man.
He knew from that point on
that he was truly Bob's successor man.

I met up with the Webriders
and took the form of Interface.
I joined my gun with pirate swords
and sailed the seas of cyberspace.
And when at last the pair of us
Were finally reunited guys,
Our shouts of joy did blare because
we really were delighted guys.
We soon made tracks to Mainframe
so our friends could reunite with us.
We made it back and Megabyte
was waiting there to fight with us.
When Bob went face to face
to face to face with Hexadecimal.
His chances for survival shrank
from small to infinitesimal.

His chances for survival shrank
from small to infinitesimal.
His chances for survival shrank
from small to infinitesimal.
His chances for survival shrank
from small to infinitesi-esimal.

Bob helped to de-fragment my head,
while Matrix fought with Megabyte.
I thought he'd wind up dead,
but Matrix put up a terrific fight.
I'd dreamed of this each lonely night,
of doing in that virus trash.
But just as I had won the fight,
he engineering a system crash!
You dreamed of this each lonely night,
of doing in that virus trash.
But just as you had won the fight,
he engineered a system crash!

What Megabyte had hoped to do
was cause his death to crack us up.
I gambled on the User to reboot
and thereby back us up.
It worked! We all were born anew
and rid of things barbaric.
Now we're back together,
everything is Alphanumeric!
It worked! We all were born anew
and rid of things barbaric.
Now we're back together,
everything is Alphanumeric!
Now we're back together,
EVERYTHING IS ALPHANUMERIC!

" Goodbye "


For you
It’s all in a day
One day in a life
It’s all in the one word
The one word is goodbye

For me
It’s all in what you say
Though you’ve tried to be kind
It’s all in the words
From the lips that once touched mine with a sigh
Goodbye

For you
It’s all in your face
The laugh and worry lines
It’s all in the one word
You hope will make you young again
Goodbye

It’s all in the play
Someone speaks the line
It’s all in the one word
That stops and steals the time
Goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye

For me
It’s all in a day
It’s the part in life
When it’s all in the words
To fate and circumstance resigned
Goodbye
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Tracy Chapman
" Broken "


You can close your eyes
And see a picture perfect life
Inside of your mind
Dreaming only of the days ahead
Wanted and wished for more than now
Or the days behind
You waste your time

The picture makes a promise
The flesh lets it be broken
The picture makes a promise
The flesh lets it be broken

You can never think
You can’t even stop yourself
Before the words have been spoken
And you’ve already said
You would give everything
And something for nothing
Everybody thinks you’re joking

The picture makes a promise
The flesh lets it be broken
The picture makes a promise
The flesh lets it be broken

You want to be the one
Made over be your own
Before and after
And a supermarket
Beauty in a bottle queen
Who’ll one day grace a check-out counter
Magazine front cover
Though the fine print reads

The picture makes a promise
The flesh lets it be broken
The picture makes a promise
The flesh lets it be broken

Lets it be broken
Lets it be broken
Lets it be broken
Lets it be broken
Lets it be broken
Broken
Broken

When your life is never what you wanted
Not even halfway normal
Just tarnished and soiled
When in your reach
A framed and frozen moment
So far from perfection
Not truth or transcendence
Will set you free
Still you don’t believe

The picture makes a promise
The flesh lets it be broken
The picture makes a promise
The flesh lets it be broken
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

" Less Than Strangers "


You and me
Had some history
Had a semblance of honesty
All that has changed now
We shared words
Only lover speak
How can it be
We are less than strangers


Oh it hurts to lose in love
Let anger and cruelty win
It's unfair that you doubt your feelings
And that you'll ever love again
I know that hearts can change
Like the seasons and the wind
But when I said forever
I thought that we'd always be friends


You and me had some history
Had a semblance of honesty
All that has changed now
We shared words
Only lovers speak
How can it be
We are less than strangers


I thought I saw you yesterday
I thought I passed you on the street
I swear I saw your face
I was not imagining
That you stole a glance my way
You walked away from me
My heart it may be broken
But my eyes are dry to see


You and me had some history
Had a semblance of honesty
All that has changed now
We shared words
Only lovers speak
How can it be
We are less than strangers

Tracy Chapman
" Be Careful Of My Heart "


You and your sweet smile
You and your tantalizing ways
You and your honey lips
You and all the sweet things that they say
You and your wild wild ways
One day you just up and walked away
You left me hurting


But I can forgive you for that now
You taught me something
Something took half my life to learn
When you give all yourself away
Just tell them to be careful of your heart


Be careful of my heart, heart
Be careful of this heart of mine
Be careful of my heart, heart
It just might break and send some splinters flying
Be careful of my heart, heart
Be careful


You you you
You you you
You you you
Took my love
Thought you took it all


You you you
You you you
You you you
Took my love
And now you're gone


But I'm not breaking down
And I'm not falling apart
I just lost a little faith
When you broke my heart
Given a chance I might try it again
But I wouldn't risk it all this time


I'd save
A little love for myself
Enough for my heart to mend
A little love for myself
One day I just might love again
One day some sweet smile might turn my head
One day I just might give all myself away
One day
One day
One day

I Wish You'd Stay - Brad Paisley

I talked to my sister in Memphis
And I told her you were movin' to town
Here's her number
She said she'd be glad to show you around
I left a map on your front seat
Just in case you lose your way
But don't worry, once you reach Sallisaw
It's all interstate

I know you need to go
But before you do I want you to know, that I

Wish you the best
And I wish you nothing less
Than every thing you've ever dreamed of
And I hope that you find love along the way
But most of all
I wish you'd stay

I figure right about sundown
You'll be in West Tennessee
And by then
Maybe I'll understand why you had to leave

I know that you've done some changin'
And I know there's no changin' your mind
And yes I know
We've been through this a thousand times

I'm sorry for still holdin' on
I'll try to let go and I'll try to be strong, and I'll

Wish you the best
And I wish you nothing less
Than every thing you've ever dreamed of
And I hope that you find love along the way
But most of all
I wish you'd stay

Yeah, everything you've ever dreamed of
And I hope that you'll find love along the way
But most of all
I wish you'd stay
I wish you'd stay



Cry- Faith Hill

If I had just one tear running down your cheek
Maybe I could cope maybe I'd get some sleep
If I had just one moment at your expense
Maybe all my misery would be well spent

Yeah.... Could you cry a little
Lie just a little
Pretend that you're feeling a little more pain
I gave now I 'm wanting
Something in return
So cry just a little for me

If your love could be caged, honey I would hold the key
And conceal it underneath the pile of lies you handed me
And you'd hunt those lies
They'd be all you'd ever find
And that'd be all you'd have to know
For me to be fine

Yeah.... And you'd cry a little
And die just a little
and baby I would feel just a little less pain
I gave now I'm wanting
Something in return
So cry just a little for me

Give it up baby
I hear your doin' fine
Nothins gonna save me
I can see it in your eyes
Some kind of heartache, darlin
give it a try
I dont want pity
I just want what is mine

Yeah... Could you cry a little
And lie just a little
Pretend that your're feeling a little more pain
I gave now I'm wanting
Something in return
So cry just a little for me

Yeah... Cry just a little for me

woo ooo, could you cry a little for me

yeah, yeah

The Dream Within

Free the Dream Within
The stars are crying a tear,
A sigh escapes from heaven
And worlds end

Breathe the dream within
The mystifying
We tremble and spin
Suspended within

Look beyond
Where hearts can see
Dream In peace
Trust love....believe

We tremble and pin
Suspended within

Free the dream within
The voices calling a song,
A prayer from deep inside you
To guide you

Be the dream within
The light is shining
A flame on the wind
Salvation begins

Look beyond
Where hearts can see
Dream in peace
Trust love....believe

We tremble and spin
Suspended within

Free the dream within
The stars are crying a tear,
A sigh escapes from heaven
And worlds end



Evanescence
Bring Me To Life

How can you see into my eyes
like open doors.
Leading you down into my core
where I've become so numb.
Without a soul
my spirit's sleeping somewhere cold
until you find it there and lead it back home.

[CHORUS]
Wake me up.
Wake me up inside.
I can't wake up.
Wake me up inside.
Save me.
Call my name and save me from the dark.
Wake me up.
Bid my blood to run.
I can't wake up.
Before I come undone.
Save me.
Save me from the nothing I've become.

Now that I know what I'm without
you can't just leave me.
Breathe into me and make me real
Bring me to life.

[Chorus]

Bring me to life.
I've been living a lie
There's nothing inside.
Bring me to life.

Frozen inside without your touch,
without your love...darling.
Only you are the life among the dead.

All of this sight
I can't believe I couldn't see
Kept in the dark
but you were there in front of me

I've been sleeping a 1000 years it seems.
I've got to open my eyes to everything.

Without a thought
Without a voice
Without a soul

Don't let me die here
There must be something wrong.
Bring me to life.


[Chorus]

Bring me to life.
I've been living a lie
There's nothing inside.

Bring me to life

by: Bob Dylan
titlle: To Ramona
album: "Another Side of Bob Dylan", 1964

Ramona, come closer,
Shut softly your watery eyes.
The pangs of your sadness
Shall pass as your senses will rise.
The flowers of the city
Though breathlike, get deathlike at times.
And there's no use in tryin'
T' deal with the dyin',
Though I cannot explain that in lines.

Your cracked country lips,
I still wish to kiss,
As to be under the strength of your skin.
Your magnetic movements
Still capture the minutes I'm in.
But it grieves my heart, love,
To see you tryin' to be a part of
A world that just don't exist.
It's all just a dream, babe,
A vacuum, a scheme, babe,
That sucks you into feelin' like this.

I can see that your head
Has been twisted and fed
By worthless foam from the mouth.
I can tell you are torn
Between stayin' and returnin'
On back to the South.
You've been fooled into thinking
That the finishin' end is at hand.
Yet there's no one to beat you,
No one t' defeat you,
'Cept the thoughts of yourself feeling bad.

I've heard you say many times
That you're better 'n no one
And no one is better 'n you.
If you really believe that,
You know you got
Nothing to win and nothing to lose.
From fixtures and forces and friends,
Your sorrow does stem,
That hype you and type you,
Making you feel
That you must be exactly like them.

I'd forever talk to you,
But soon my words,
They would turn into a meaningless ring.
For deep in my heart
I know there is no help I can bring.
Everything passes,
Everything changes,
Just do what you think you should do.
And someday maybe,
Who knows, baby,
I'll come and be cryin' to you.

[Iben]

Smile, though your heart is aching
Smile, even though it's breaking
When there are clouds in the sky
You'll get by...

If you smile through your fear and sorrow
Smile and maybe tomorrow
You'll find that life is still worthwhile
If you just smile..

Light up your face with gladness
Hide every trace of sadness
Although a tear may be ever so near
That's the time you must keep on trying
Smile, what's the use of crying
You'll find that life is still worthwhile
If you just smile

Smile, though your heart is aching
Smile, even though it's breaking
When there are clouds in the sky
You'll get by...

If you smile
Through your fear and sorrow
Smile and maybe tomorrow
You'll find that life is still worthwhile
If you just smile...

That's the time you must keep on trying
Smile, what's the use of crying
You'll find that life is still worthwhile
If you just smile

Linkin Park - Pushing Me Away

I've lied...to you
The same way that I always do
This is...the last smile
That I'll fake for the sake of being with you

(Everything falls apart, even the people who never frown eventually break down)
The sacrifice of hiding in a lie
(Everything has to end, you'll soon find we're out of time left to watch it all unwind)
The sacrifice is never knowing...

Why I never walked away!
Why I played myself this way!
Now I see, you're testing me pushes me away!

I've tried...like you
To do everything you wanted to
This is...the last time
I'll take the blame for the sake of being with you

(Everything falls apart, even the people who never frown eventually break down)
The sacrifice of hiding in a lie
(Everything has to end, you'll soon find we're out of time left to watch it all unwind)
The sacrifice is never knowing...

Why I never walked away!
Why I played myself this way!
Now I see, you're testing me pushes me away!

(Everything falls apart, even the people who never frown eventually break down)
The sacrifice of hiding in a lie!
(Everything has to end, you'll soon find we're out of time left to watch it all unwind)

Why I never walked away!
Why I played myself this way!
Now I see, you're testing me pushes me away!

I haven't posted a song in forever. Here's one from me, my very favorite Simon and Garfunkle song...


I Am A Rock - Simon and Garfunkle

A winter's day
In a deep and dark December;
I am alone,
Gazing from my window to the streets below
On a freshly fallen silent shroud of snow.
I am a rock,
I am an island.

I've built walls,
A fortress deep and mighty,
That none may penetrate.
I have no need of friendship; friendship causes pain.
It's laughter and it's loving I disdain.
I am a rock,
I am an island.

Don't talk of love,
Well I've heard the word before;
It's sleeping in my memory.
I won't disturb the slumber of feelings that have died.
If I never loved I never would have cried.
I am a rock,
I am an island.

I have my books
And my poetry to protect me;
I am shielded in my armor,
Hiding in my room, safe within my womb.
I touch no one and no one touches me.
I am a rock,
I am an island.

And a rock feels no pain;
And an island never cries.

[Rogue]

Fool- Lee Ann Womack


You don't know me, but I know who you are.
Mind if I sit down?
Do I look familiar? If I don't, well I should.
I'm sure you've seen me around.
I know you've probably heard my name,
Though we've not been introduced:
I'm the fool in love with the fool,
Who's still in love with you.

If you've got a minute, I'll buy you a drink.
I've got something to say.
It might sound crazy, but last night in his sleep,
I heard him call out your name.
This ain't the first time, he's done it before,
And it's hard to face the truth.
I'm the fool in love with the fool,
Who's still in love with you.

I know love is a fragile thing,
And I'm trying hard to make it last.
But it ain't easy, holding on to my dream,
When he's holding on to the past.

Just one more thing before I go:
I'm not here to put you down.
You don't love him and that's a fact,
Girl, I've seen you around.
But you hold his heart in the palm of your hand,
And it's breaking mine in two,
'Cos I'm the fool in love with the fool,
Who's still in love with you.

I'm the fool in love with the fool,
Who's still in love with you.

I can’t give everything away
I won’t give everything away

Good song.


Imaginary by Evanescence

I linger in the doorway
Of alarm clock screaming monsters calling my name
Let me stay
Where the wind will whisper to me
Where the raindrops as they're falling tell a story

In my field of paper flowers
And candy clouds of lullaby
I lie inside myself for hours
And watch my purple sky fly over me

Don't say i'm out of touch
With this rampant chaos - your reality
I know well what lies beyond my sleeping refuge
The nightmare i built my own world to escape

In my field of paper flowers
And candy clouds of lullaby
I lie inside myself for hours
And watch my purple sky fly over me

Swallowed up in the sound of my screaming
Cannot cease for the fear of silent nights
Oh how i long for the deep sleep dreaming
The goddess of imaginary light

In my field of paper flowers
And candy clouds of lullaby
I lie inside myself for hours
And watch my purple sky fly over me


Breaking the Habit by Linkin Park

Memories concern
Like opening the wound
I'm picking me apart again
You all assume
I'm safer in my room
Unless I try to start again

I don't want to be the one
Who battles always choose
Cuz inside I realize
That I'm the one confused

I don't know what's worth fighting for
Or why I have to scream
I don't know why I instigate
And say what I don't mean
I don't know how I got this way
I know it's not alright
So I'm breaking the habit
I'm breaking the habit tonight

Cultured my cure
I tightly lock the door
I try to catch my breath again
I hurt much more
Than anytime before
I have no options left again

I dont want to be the one
Who battles always choose
Cuz inside I realize
That I'm the one confused

I don't know what's worth fighting for
Or why I have to scream
I don't know why I instigate
And say what I don't mean
I don't know how I got this way
I'll never be alright
So, I'm breaking the habit
I'm breaking the habit tonight

I'll paint it on the walls
Cuz I'm the one that falls
I'll never fight again
And this is how it ends

I don't know what's worth fighting for
Or why I have to scream
But now I have some clarity
to show you what I mean
I don't know how I got this way
I'll never be alright
So, I'm breaking the habit
I'm breaking the habit
I’m breaking the habit tonight


Top O' the Morning to Ya by House of Pain

She won't come, just when you want it

Ya see, I'm Irish, but I'm not a leprechaun
You wanna fight, then step up and we'll get it on
You gotta right to the grill, I'm white and I ill
A decendant of Dublin with titanic skill
I ducked and I swing, next thing your jaw's broken
Punk I ain't jokin', you can bet you'll be chokin'
On a fist full a nothin', meanwhile I'll be puffin'
On a fat blunt, run punk, you don't know the half
Tryin' to talk ****, man, please don't make me laugh
These Irish eyes are smilin', I'm buckwildin'
The House Of Pain is pumpin', start jumpin'
Freak it, funk it, back seat junk it
If you can't get with it, you'll wind up sweatin' it
Then you'll get a beatin' just like an egg
It's so hard to run when you've got a broken leg
But we can have a run off, the House Of Pain'll come off
We got the cake that you're tryin' to get a crumb off
The Irish stylee, the Celtic jazz
No one has it, just us that's it
If you try to take it, I got a big shileighly
I don't have dreads cause I shave my head daily
You call me a skin head, I call you a pin head
Yo, where you been man, just like the tin man
You got no heart, here comes the good part
I pick 'em, buck 'em, cut 'em up, and buck them down
No ****in' around
Home boy ya get clown like Krusty, trust me
You shouldn't play, and by the way
Top o' the mornin' to ya

[Chorus]

(What's the hassle man?) Top o' the mornin' to ya [2x]
(Hey, are you givin' us a hassle man?)

Greetin's, salutations
Peace to the nations of Zulu and Islam
Crack the bottle, rev the throttle
Put the gear in, now you're stearin'
Like Mario Antretti
So let me kick it, cause I can make a wicked
Noise like a cricket
Rubbin' his legs, my rhymes are like eggs
I'll keep layin' 'em, I'll keep sayin' 'em
This is the House Of Pain, we're far from plain
But we're not fancy, Ron and Nancy
So just say no, but I say go
Straight to hell, I kiss and tell
So if you're a ho, all my friends know
What you gotta say, let's hit the hay
And have no delay, and yo, by the way
Top o' the mornin' to ya

[Chorus]

Extra extra, read all about it
How could ya doubt it?
Now scream and shout it!
The House Of Pain soon will reign
Over the hip hop scene and like golden green
I rip **** and back flip like a Jedi
I roll with the groove and I'm smooth and you can bet I
Come correct and get respect when I'm flowin'
Collectin my dough, I got you're girlfriend ho-in'
And how do I know that she's funk?
I know she's broke cause yo, the T's hung like a
Shetland pony, gettin' paid like Sony
So never ever try to play me out like a phony
Cause I can get real thick like a bull with Mark Toneil
And by the way, top o' the mornin' to ya

Nobody's Listening- Linkin Park

peep the style and the kids checking for it
the number one question is how could you ignore it
we drop right back in the cut
over basement tracks
with raps that got you backing this up like
[rewind that]
we're just rolling with the rhythm
rise from the ashes of stylistic division
with these non-stop lyrics of life living
not to be forgotten
but still unforgiven
but in the meantime there are those who wanna
talk this and that / so i suppose
that it gets to a that point feelings gotta get hurt
and get dirty with the people spreading the dirt
[it goes]
try to give you warning
but everyone ignores me
[told you everything loud and clear]
but nobody's listening
call to you so clearly
but you don't want to hear me
[told you everything loud and clear]
but nobody's listening

i got a
heart full of pain / head full of stress
handful of anger / held in my chest
and everything left is a waste of time
i hate my rhymes
[but hate everyone else's more]
i'm riding on the back of this pressure
guessing that it's better
that i can't keep myself together
because all of this stress
gave me something to write on
the pain gave me something i could set my sights on
you never forget the blood sweat and tears
the uphill struggle over years
the fear and trash talking
and the people it was to
and the people that started it
just like you

i got a
heart full of pain / head full of stress
handful of anger / held in my chest
uphill struggle / blood sweat and tears
nothing to gain / everything to fear

[coming at you]


Faint-Linkin Park
i am
little bit of loneliness
a little bit of disregard
a handful of complaints
but i can't help the fact
that everyone can see these scars
i am
what i want you to want
what i want you to feel
but it's like
no matter what i do
i can't convince you
to just believe this is real
so i let go
watching you
turn your back like you always do
face away and pretend that i'm not
but i'll be here
cause you're all i got
i am
a little bit insecure
a little unconfident
cause you don't understand
i do what i can
but sometimes i don't make sense
i am
what you never want to say
but i've never had a doubt
it's like no matter what i do
i can't convince you
for once just to hear me out
so i let go
watching you
turn your back like you always do
face away and pretend that i'm not
but i'll be here
cause you're all i got

i can't feel
the way i did before
don't turn your back on me
i won't be ignored
time won't heal
this damage anymore
don't turn your back on me
i won't be ignored


no
hear me out now
you're gonna listen to me
like it or not
right now

CRUCIFIED

So much pain to ease my simple mind
No hope - I've been crucified
And no one seems to care

(Don't you feel like a *****)
(Don't promise **** you'll never be)
(Don't you feel like a *****)
(Don't promise **** you'll never be)

The first time I knew you lied
I ended up crucified
My hate you wear for my cross you bear
It's for me I swear

What's with you
You leech off my desire
Faceless name
So untrue you're wasting away

(Don't you feel like a,)
(Don't you feel like a,)
(Don't you feel like a ****)
(Don't promise **** you'll never be)

(Chorus repeat 4x)

XMAS DAY

One step in the dark
Touch her hand just to see
If she's all alone again
Still she hasn't seen sun
But I promise you now when she wakes
There will be none
Don't know how she gets by
Sleeps with a phone on her chest
And a bottle that's totally dry
Forgets the day I was born
But if she saw me right now

She would hold me until we both die

I could be the one who would die to
feel you breathe

I could break into a million pieces
So just run as fast as you can for me
You mean everything

I can't deny her. I'll do whatever
To stop all the bleeding that makes
her world so red
Such a delicate one
She screams so loud that I run to
hide from the sound
And I could be the one who would die
to feel you breathe
But it's too far-gone
And this love must die

(Chorus repeat 4x)

FOLLOW

Time can take everything that
surrounds you
You can break from everything that
confines you
Some to trust - look in my eyes
I will guide you
So I say

Living to love could remind you

You can't know follow

What I say to you take with you today
The pressure it brings
Alone alive to know
What I say to you take with you today
You can't take the pain
To live to know

You can't fake
Everything that reminds you
How you feel
Time will tell what's inside you

You can't know follow

(Chorus repeat 2x)

LIVE AGAIN

Feeling Nothing
Lonely Empty
You try to walk away but you fall
You cannot understand what's this for

In this world I see it more
The pain you feel that I ignore

You see my face and then you see
nothin'
Confused. you turn and live on
I turn my face
You're staring back again
Look at yourself and live again

Can't see me. you feel me
Want me. you'll find me
I'll be your everything
Will you call
You'll need more & more
When you fall

In this world I see it more
The pain you feel that I ignore

You see my face and then you see
nothing
Confused. you turn and live on
I turn my face
You're staring back again
Look at yourself and live again

How many times have you looked
At yourself & felt mistreated
How does it feel to know that
This life of yours is real
All of your life you've been led
To believe your nothin'
So look at yourself and start to live
again

You see my face and then you see
nothing
Confused you turn and live on
I turn my face
You're staring back again
Look at yourself and live again

If you don't change you'll be nothin'

So look at yourself and live again

I turn my face
You're staring back again

So look at yourself and live again

Trust

TRUST

When I hold my head down to the ground
And I wish you were here with me
Seems like you're always around
I was blind to see
Too good to be true
you can't stay with me
I wish she was all I need
And it's getting late. and it's cold outside
So cold. so cold

(TRUST)

I've wronged you
And steal everything from the truth
Could we find ourselves
walking through
A field with no solitude
The pain goes on

Insensitive to all your needs
Did you ever want to stay with me
Never try to put you down
And I never want to see you leave
I still can't believe you're going to leave
I wish she was all I needed
It's getting late and it's cold outside
So cold. so cold

Title: Shape Of My Heart

He deals the cards as a meditation
And those he plays never suspect
He doesn't play for the money he wins
He don't play for respect

He deals the cards to find the answer
The sacred geometry of chance
The hidden law of a probable outcome
The numbers lead a dance

I know that the spades are the swords of a soldier
I know that the clubs are weapons of war
I know that diamonds mean money for this art
But that's not the shape of my heart

He may play the jack of diamonds
He may lay the queen of spades
He may conceal a king in his hand
While the memory of it fades

I know that the spades are the swords of a soldier
I know that the clubs are weapons of war
I know that diamonds mean money for this art
But that's not the shape of my heart

And if I told you that I loved you
You'd maybe think there's something wrong
I'm not a man of too many faces
The mask I wear is one

Well, those who speak know nothin'
And find out to their cost
Like those who curse their luck in too many places
And those who fear are lost

I know that the spades are the swords of a soldier
I know that the clubs are weapons of war
I know that diamonds mean money for this art
But that's not the shape of my heart
That's not the shape, the shape of my heart
That's not the shape, the shape of my heart

"Tourniquet"

i tried to kill the pain
but only brought more
i lay dying
and i'm pouring crimson regret and betrayal
i'm dying praying bleeding and screaming
am i too lost to be saved
am i too lost?

my God my tourniquet
return to me salvation
my God my tourniquet
return to me salvation

do you remember me
lost for so long
will you be on the other side
or will you forget me
i'm dying praying bleeding and screaming
am i too lost to be saved
am i too lost?

my God my tourniquet
return to me salvation
my God my tourniquet
return to me salvation

my wounds cry for the grave
my soul cries for deliverance
will i be denied Christ
tourniquet
my suicide

From The Inside
Linkin Park


i don't know who to trust
no surprise
everyone feels so far away from me
heavy thoughts sift through dust
and the lies
trying not to break
but i'm so tired of this deceit
every time i try to make myself
get back up on my feet
all i ever think about is this
all the tiring time between
and how
trying to put my trust in you
just takes so much out of me

i take everything from the inside
and throw it all away
cause i swear / for the last time
i won't trust myself with you

tension is building inside
steadily
everyone feels so far away from me
heavy thoughts forcing their way
out of me

i won't trust myself with you
i won't waste myself on you
waste myself on you
you


Easier To Run



its easier to run
replacing this pain with something numb
its so much easier to go
than face all this pain here all alone
something has been taken
from deep inside of me
a secret i've kept locked away
no one can ever see
wounds so deep they never show
they never go away
like moving pictures in my head
for years and years they've played

if i could change i would
take back the pain i would
retrace every wrong move that i made i would
if i could
stand up and take the blame i would
if i could take all the shame to the grave i would

sometimes i remember
the darkness of my past
bringing back these memories
i wish i didn't have
sometimes i think of letting go
and never looking back
and never moving forward so
there would never be a past

just washing it aside
all of the helplessness inside
pretending i don't feel so misplaced
is so much simpler than change

its easier to run
replacing this pain with something numb
its so much easier to go
than face all this pain here all alone

This song cheers me up no end!!! (The Monkees Version)

I'm a Believer

I thought love was only true in fairy tales
Meant for someone else but not for me.
Love was out to get me
That's the way it seemed.
Disappointment haunted all my dreams.

Then I saw her face, now I'm a believer
Not a trace of doubt in my mind.
I'm in love, I'm a believer!
I couldn't leave her if I tried.

I thought love was more or less a given thing,
Seems the more I gave the less I got.
What's the use in tryin'?
All you get is pain.
When I needed sunshine I got rain.

Then I saw her face, now I'm a believer
Not a trace of doubt in my mind.
I'm in love, I'm a believer!
I couldn't leave her if I tried.

"When the Ship comes in"
by Bob Dylan
from his 1963 album "The Times they are a-changin"


Oh the time will come up
When the winds will stop
And the breeze will cease to be breathin'.
Like the stillness in the wind
'Fore the hurricane begins,
The hour when the ship comes in.

Oh the seas will split
And the ship will hit
And the sands on the shoreline will be shaking.
Then the tide will sound
And the wind will pound
And the morning will be breaking.

Oh the fishes will laugh
As they swim out of the path
And the seagulls they'll be smiling.
And the rocks on the sand
Will proudly stand,
The hour that the ship comes in.

And the words that are used
For to get the ship confused
Will not be understood as they're spoken.
For the chains of the sea
Will have busted in the night
And will be buried at the bottom of the ocean.

A song will lift
As the mainsail shifts
And the boat drifts on to the shoreline.
And the sun will respect
Every face on the deck,
The hour that the ship comes in.

Then the sands will roll
Out a carpet of gold
For your weary toes to be a-touchin'.
And the ship's wise men
Will remind you once again
That the whole wide world is watchin'.

Oh the foes will rise
With the sleep still in their eyes
And they'll jerk from their beds and think they're dreamin'.
But they'll pinch themselves and squeal
And know that it's for real,
The hour when the ship comes in.

Then they'll raise their hands,
Sayin' we'll meet all your demands,
But we'll shout from the bow your days are numbered.
And like Pharaoh's tribe,
They'll be drownded in the tide,
And like Goliath, they'll be conquered.

Trapt

Still Frame
Please help me ’cause I’m breaking down, this picture’s frozen and I can’t get out (of here) / Believe me, I’m just as lost as you / And every time I think I’ve finally made it / I learn I’m farther away than I’ve ever been before / I see the clock and it’s ticking away, and the hourglass empty / What the f*** do I have to say / Keep it inside the image portrayed / As if I couldn’t stand losing as if I couldn’t be saved, no way / A small confession I think I’m starting to lose it / I think I’m drifting away from the people I really need / A small reflection on when we were younger / We had it all figured ’cause we had everything covered / Now we’re older it’s getting harder to see / What this future will hold for us, what the f*** are we going to be? / I’m afraid I’m falling farther away (from where I want to be)

When All Is Said And Done
You have a chance to really shine now / Well patience was never one of your true virtues / Stop trying to control everything and f*** what they say, what do you have to prove? // So why am I waiting, this time that I’m wasting, if that’s what you mean // How will this be when all is said and done, will I know where I’m from remember me / Where will I be, I guess I’m on the run and time is catching up behind me // I’m scared to be the only one who sees / The hourglass run dry ’cause too much time went by / Why do I try to prove that I will be ready for everything thrown at me // These thoughts trickle down, imaginary lines cut through the ground / So why am I waiting, this time that I’m wasting, if that’s what you mean

[Colorado Cajun]

The Calling
For You


I am a vision, I am justice
Never thought that I could love
Living in shadows, faded existence
It was never good enough
Within the darkness, you were the light
That shines away
You're trapped in violence, I can be the man
That saves the day

I'm there for you
No matter what
I'm there for you
Never giving up
I'm there for you
For you

Someone has changed me, something saved me
Now this is who I am
Although I was blinded, my heart let me find that
Truth makes a better man
I didn't notice that you were right in front of me
A mask of silence, we'll put away so we can see

I'm there for you
No matter what
I'm there for you
Never giving up
I'm there for you
For you

For you

Within the darkness, you are the light
That shines away
In this blind justice, I can be the man
That saves the day

I'm there for you
No matter what
I'm there for you
Never giving up

You know it's true
You were there for me
And I'm there for you
For you
For you
For you

Revis - Caught In The Rain

Is it real?
We're always the same
We're almost done now
I was caught in the rain
Wasting my time on the ground

Waiting the call
What would you say?
Can you come over?
I was caught in the rain
Wasting my time on the ground

It was you
Who could get me high
With whatever you say
You're telling me something real

What we do
It doesn't matter now
Whatever it takes
For you to stay with me

Trading thoughts
Crossing the rumor
I saw you surrounded
I was caught in the rain
Wasting my time on the ground

Feeling small
Without an escape
I almost let you down
I was caught in the rain
Wasting my time on the ground

It was you
Who could get me high
With whatever you say
You're telling me something real

What we do
It doesn't matter now
Whatever it takes
For you to stay with me

It was you
Who could get me high
With whatever you say
Telling me something real

What we do
It doesn't matter now
When I was caught in the rain
You made me feel

You made me feel
Made me feel
I was caught in the rain
Wasting my time on the ground

Wasting my time on the ground
I was caught in the rain
Caught in the rain

Saliva
Bleed for Me

All I ever wanted was to be at your service
But now I'm alone cause you were here and you're gone
And all I ever wanted was to feel I had purpose
But now that's all gone
But if you could give me

Just one love, just one life
Just one chance to believe in my...
Just one love, just one life

You bleed for me and I didn't get to notice you
Now I'm stuck on a line
Bleed for me, I didn't get to be with you
Now you're stuck in my mind

All I ever wanted was to be want you needed
Cause something so strong, it could never be wrong
And all I can promise, is to say what I'm feeling
We've made it so long
But if you could give me

Just one love, just one life
Just one chance to believe in my...
Just one love, just one life

You bleed for me and I didn't get to notice you
Now I'm stuck on a line
Bleed for me, I didn't get to be with you
Now you're stuck in my mind

Just one love in my life

You bleed for me and I didn't get to notice you
Now I'm stuck on a line
Bleed for me, I didn't get to be with you
Now you're stuck in my mind

Just one love in my life
Just one love in my life

I really need to study, but I will take a break and post here instead:) Here is a bittersweet song by Billy Joel. I was hoping when I heard it 10 years ago he didn't mean it, but he did. It's the final song off of "River of Dreams"

Famous Last Words - Billy Joel

Sitting here in Avalon, looking at the pouring rain
Summertime has come and gone,
and everybody's home again
Closing down for the season I found the last of the souvenirs
I can still taste the wedding cake
and it's sweet after all these years

And these are the last words I have to say
That's why this took so long to write
There will be other words some other day
But that's the story of my life

There's comfort in my coffee cup, and apples in the early fall
They're pulling all the moorings up
and gathering at the Legion Hall
Swept away all the streamers after the Labour Day Parade
There's nothing left for a dreamer now
Only one final serenade

And these are the last words I have to say
Before another age goes by
With all those other songs I'll have to play
But that's the story of my life...

And it's so clear standing here where I am
Ain't that what justice is for
Frankly my dear I don't give a damn anymore

Stack the chairs on the tabletops
Hang the sheets on the chandeliers
It slows down but it never stops
Ain't it sweet after all these years

And these are the last words I have to say
It's always hard to say goodbye
But now it's time to put this book away
And that's the story of my life...

[pixiness]

Such a wonderful extended metaphor -

POE - I'm Not a Virgin Anymore

I'm not a virgin anymore

I just thought you should know
Darlin' I've been around
I've been up and down your block
In fact I have been all over town
Down by the lake
And underneath the table in my living room
Outside in the blue blue moon

You can call me what you will
Call me a slut call me a jaded pill
But darlin I've got your number now
I'm not a virgin anymore

I've been taken
I've been hung up
I get down and start it over again
I've been opened
And I've been closed like a book,
Burned down like a written sin
I just thought you should know my darling before we begin
I'm not a virgin anymore

Just thought you should know
Before you let another lie
Slip through your crooked little teeth
I don't think you wanna start that ***** with me

Much better yet
Tell me something dangerous and true
Oh yeah that looks much sexier on you

Careful what it is you say
'Cause I can see right through you on a cloudy day
And darlin' I think you wanna play
I'm not a virgin anymore

I've been taken
I've been hung up
I get down and start it over again
I've been opened
I've been closed like a book,
Burned down like a written sin
So if you wanna play dirty my darling I'm gonna win
I'm not a virgin anymore

Been there done that
(Say what?)
Get the hang of it
Get screwed
I screwed you and had a whole lot of fun with it
I've had enough now so you better take a bow
It's gonna be a new experience if you wanna play with me

Daisy chains and maryjanes
Fairy tales cannot fool me now

I've been taken
I've been hung up
I get down and start it over again
I've been opened
And I've been closed like a book
And burned down like a written sin

Hell I've been divided
Out of my mind and reinvented again
I've been ignited and then uninvited
So honey
You break it up
I'm gonna put it back together again

I just thought you should know my darling before we begin

I'm not a virgin anymore

"Shock" - Fear Factory

Welcome to my world
Headfirst to the Earth
With my sights on the goddamned kill switch
I've become a fuse
Charged with attitude
Fixed and dialated by my anger
I have become a direct
I have become a current
I have become a direct
I have become insurgent
I will be the power surge
Shock to the system
Electrified, amplified
Shock to the system
Alternate to the wires
Heat my core desire
I will not stand for condemnation
I've become the volts
To lead the revolt
**** with me ensues danger
I have become a direct
I have become a current
I have become a direct
I have become insurgent
I will be the power surge
Shock to the system
Electrified, amplified
Shock to the system
I am the power surge
I am the insurgent
Electrified, amplified
Electrified, amplified
Shock!

"Idiot Wind"
outtake from the album "Blood on the Tracks"

Someone's got it in for me, they're planting stories in the press
Whoever it is I wish they'd cut it out but when they will I can only guess.
They say I shot a man named Gray and took his wife to Italy,
She inherited a million bucks and when she died it came to me.
I can't help it if I'm lucky.

People see me all the time and they just can't remember how to act
Their minds are filled with big ideas, images and distorted facts.
Even you, yesterday you had to ask me where it was at,
I couldn't believe after all these years, you didn't know me better than that
Sweet lady.

Idiot wind, blowing every time you move your mouth,
Blowing down the backroads headin' south.
Idiot wind, blowing every time you move your teeth,
You're an idiot, babe.
It's a wonder that you still know how to breathe.


I threw the I-Ching yesterday, it said there might be some thunder at the well.
Peace and quiet's been avoiding me for so long it seems like living hell.
There's a lone soldier on the hill, watchin' falling raindrops pour.
You'd never know it to look at him, but at the final shot he won the war
After losin' every battle.

I woke up on the roadside, day dreamin' about the way things sometimes are
Hoofbeats pounding in my head at break-neck speed and making me see stars.
You hurt the ones that I love best and cover up the truth with lies.
One day you'll be in the ditch, flies buzzin' around your eyes,
Blood on your saddle.

Idiot wind, blowing through the flowers on your tomb,
Blowing through the curtains in your room.
Idiot wind, blowing every time you move your teeth,
You're an idiot, babe.
It's a wonder that you still know how to breathe.


It was gravity which pulled us in and destiny which broke us apart
You tamed the lion in my cage but it just wasn't enough to change my heart.
Now everything's a little upside down, as a matter of fact the wheels have stopped,
What's good is bad, what's bad is good, you'll find out when you reach the top
You're on the bottom.

I noticed at the ceremony, that you left all your bags behind
The driver came in after you left, he gave them all to me, and then he resigned.
The priest wore black on the seventh day, walzed around while the building burned.
You didn't trust me for a minute, babe. I've never known the spring to turn
So quickly into autumn.

Idiot wind, blowing everytime you move your jaw,
From the Grand Coulee Dam to the Mardi Gras.
Idiot wind, blowing every time you move your teeth,
You're an idiot, babe.
It's a wonder that you still know how to breathe.


We pushed eachother a little too far, and one day it just jumped into a raging storm. A hound dog bayed behind your trees as I was packing up my uniform.
I figured I'd lost you anyway, Why go on? what's the use?
In order to get in a word with you, I'd have had to come up with some excuse.
It just struck me kinda funny.

I been double-crossed too much, at times I think I've almost lost my mind
Lady-killers load ice on me behind my back, while imitators steal me blind
You close your eyes and part your lips, and slip your fingers from your glove
You can have the best there is, but it's gonna cost you all your love
You won't get it for money

Idiot wind, blowing through the buttons of our coats,
Blowing through the letters that we wrote.
Idiot wind, blowing through the dust upon our shelves,
We're idiots, babe.
It's a wonder we can even feed ourselves.

Young Lust - Pink Floyd

I am just a new boy,
Stranger in this town.
Where are all the good times?
Who's gonna show this stranger around?
Ooooo I need a dirty woman.
Ooooo I need a dirty girl.
Will some woman in this desert land,
Make me feel like a real man?
Take this rock and roll refugee.
Ooo Babe, set me free.
Ooooo I need a dirty woman.
Ooooo I need a dirty girl.
Ooooo I need a dirty woman.
Ooooo I need a dirty girl.

Most of Driftwood by Travis

Everything is open
Nothing is set in stone
Rivers turn to ocean
Ocean tides you home
Home is where the hart is
But your hart had to roam
Drifting over bridges
Never to return
Watching bridges burn

Your driftwood floating under water
Braking into pieces, pieces, pieces
Just driftwood hollow and of no use
Waterfalls that find you bind you grind you

Nobody is an island
Everyone has to go

[Colorado Cajun]

Sick Tight
Head rush
come on, we take the stage
and what's up, it's on
this is a blow up
so just listen up
just take your mouth off interrupt
we came to throw down
it's a showdown
and you know why, we never lie
get the lowdown son
we're mashin and bashin
the stage we're crashin
if you're on the roof
I know you're dancin
I bet we get the people jumpin overseas
and I know why you're bustin mp3's
the **** **** shocker
the hiphop rocker
wiser than Baraka
stronger than Chewbacca
KISS never did this nor Ozzy Ozbourne
shakin that ass and shakin your firstborn
back to the future and past to the front
we appear like adrenaline it's just that blunt

Two score and five we came alive
a minor blow up has started
a song for the newly sane and
the broken hearted

Head rush
come on, we take the stage
and what's up, it's on
from midnight til daylight
you best believe that we're sick tight
you're cryin' bout your life
I think it's absurd
what could be so bad
you come from the suburbs
just like me
but I could never despair
most people in this world
ain't got **** to spare
suckas look up to thugs
they like the attitude
but **** that
I'm talkin' gratitude
they harder they act
just to hide their insecurity
I'm talking honestly
we are assuredly
dope, I smoke it
but not everyday
cuz anything all the time's
a drag I say
three eleven you want to get next to them
my name's Nick H, E, X, U, M

Two score and five we came alive
a minor blow up has started
a song for the newly sane and
the broken hearted
we keep an eye for each other then again
our known associates endure
we make a sick tight connection when we
see our true people on tour

Head rush
keep it going now
you know we get it right
we keep it flowing now
we're sick tight

We keep an eye for each other then again
our known associates endure
we make a sick tight connection when we
see our true people on tour

Head rush
keep it going now
you know we get it right
we keep it flowing now
we're sick tight

I'll Be Here Awhile
I'll be here awhile, ain't going nowhere
I'll be here awhile, ain't going nowhere
I'll be here awhile, ain't going nowhere
I'll be here awhile

Far is solace in the maddening pace
sad state written on my face
not a tight rope walk but dance
uncertain game of chance
but I'll see it through in time

I'll be here awhile, ain't going nowhere
I'll be here awhile, ain't going nowhere
I'll be here awhile, ain't going nowhere
I'll be here awhile

And if a person place or thing can deliver
I will quiver with delight
tempted by the hand that could
blind my vision and sight
but at twenty years of age
in frolic and in rage
I will see it through in time

I'll be here awhile, ain't going nowhere
I'll be here awhile, ain't going nowhere
I'll be here awhile, ain't going nowhere
I'll be here awhile

But the dawn has come into the endless night
and everything's going to be alright
but at thirty years of age
through frolic and in rage
all regressed and healed in time

I'll be here awhile, ain't going nowhere
Said I, said I, said I, I will survive

Purpose
I believe in your purpose baby
coming up to the surface and maybe
I'll never see you again
then again, who knows
make me quiver
hands will shiver
still got all the things that I would of give her
yeah, yeah
but it's slow going
something's showing
yeah, yeah

They say love is a stream that will find it's own course
making due is a thing, a thing I will do no more

Whenever you come back, I'll be waiting
trifling the slack, no head gating
this is all pure fiction, you know that's right
it's just pure fiction that's all right

I believe in your purpose baby
coming up to the surface and maybe
I'll never see you again
then again, who knows
make me quiver
hands will shiver
still got all the things that I would of give her
yeah, yeah
but it's slow going
something's showing
yeah, yeah

Misdirected Hostility
Now I'm not the type to just act like I know
puttin on an angle putting on a show
speaking on nothing makes you a stunt
I'll tell you right here yo I won't front
I cross the t's and skip nonlegitimacies, or else please
I cannot handle all the negative vibe merchants
is that all you have in you per chance
so much angst and pain it's so wack
you should take a tip from the one Frank Black
play some pachinko play some Parcheesi
cause all the angst s--- is just cheesy

It's a 311 bliss too smooth for pissed
lyrics talkin loud again, yeah we are the party men
cosmetics that you fretted we sport the high aesthetic
here go rap kickin the dazzled crazy mathematic (come on)
I am what I am mix some old school jams
on to tape cuz the party's in the crates I scan
step into the realm, what you gonna do
give the party people something funky to listen to

Misdirected hostility, that's what you got see
misdirected hostility, that's what you got see
misdirected hostility, that's what you got see
misdirected hostility, that's what you got

Bodyrock pop and lock here's an example
boulevard chrome beats always ampin' your temple
punks get got in the age of hip hop
it's just begun like stolen bikes on the blacktop
born to sing a lyric immaculately concepted
no strain in your game if your game is respected
come as you are radio star
drown out the hatred with a rhyme, an electric guitar
dispatched when rap shattered the glass of radio access
may we turn some soul on their rhythmless dances
you know the time and they'll know the scoop
they'll say it was a rhyme and a beat of a rap group

Your rhymes have been outmoded
your rhymes have been outmoded
your rhymes have been outmoded
your rhymes have been outmoded

Your rhymes have been outmoded
so just quit your bellyachin'
you're saying that your tortured
give me a f---in break and
maybe take out the source of your despairing
what do I mean, kick the f---in' heroin
I speak from experience because I didn't see clearly once
acting like a dunce, in 1989 I was cocaine and Jim Beam
but now it's '95 and I'm ginseng

Misdirected hostility, that's what you got see
misdirected hostility, that's what you got see
misdirected hostility, that's what you got see
misdirected hostility, that's what you got

The Biggest Ball Of Twine In Minnesota - "Weird Al" Yankovic

Well, I had two weeks of vacation time coming
After working all year down at Big Roy's Eating And Plumbing
So one night when my family the I were gathered 'round the dinner table
I said, "Kids, if you could go anywhere in this great big world, now
Where'd you like to go ta"
They said, "Dad, we wanna see the biggest ball of twine in Minnesota"
They picked the biggest ball of twine in Minnesota

So the very next day we loaded up the car
With potato skins and pickled weiners,
Crossword puzzles, Spider-Man comics, and mama's home made rhubarb pie
Pulled out of the driveway and the neighbors, they all waved good-bye
And so began our three day journey

We picked up a guy holding a sign that said "twine ball or bust"
He smelled real bad and he said his name was Bernie
I put in a Slim Whitman tape, my wife put on a brand new hair net
Kids were in the back seat jumping up and down,
yelling "Are we there yet?"
And all of us were joined together in one common thought
As we rolled down the long and winding interstate in our '53 DeSoto
We're gonna see the biggest ball of twine in Minnesota
We're headin' for the biggest ball of twine in Minnesota

Oh, we couldn't wait to get there
So we drove straight through for three whole days and nights
Of course, we stopped for more pickled weiners now and then
The scenery was just so pretty, boy I wish the kids could've seen it
But you can't see out of the side of the car
Because the windows are completely covered
With the decals of all the place where we've already been

There's Elvis-O-Rama, the Tupperware Museum,
The Boll Weevil Monument, and Cranberry World,
The Shuffleboard Hall Of Fame, Poodle Dog Rock,
And The Mecca of Albino Squirrels
We've been to ghost towns, theme parks, wax museums,
And a place where you can drive through the middle of a tree
We've seen alligator farms and tarantula ranches,
But there's still one thing we gotta see

Well, we crossed the state line about 6:39
And we saw a sign that said "Twine Ball exit - 50 miles"
Oh, the kids were so happy the started singing
"99 Bottles Of Beer On The Wall" for the 27th time that day
So, we pulled off the road at the last chance gas station
Got a few more pickled weiners and a diet chocolate soda
On our way to see the biggest ball of twine in Minnesota
We're gonna see the biggest ball of tiwne in Minnesota

Finally, at 7:37 early Wednesday evening as the sun was setting
in the Minnesota sky
Out in the distance, on the horizon, it appeared to me like a vision
before my unbelieving eye
I parked the car and walked with awe-filled reverence towards that
glorius huge majestic sphere
I was just so overwhelmed by its sheer imensity,
I had to pop myself a beer
Yes, on these hallowed grounds, open ten to eight on weekdays,
in a little shrine under a make-shift pagoda,
There sits the biggest ball of twine in Minnesota
I tell you, it's the biggest ball of twine in Minnesota

Oh, what on earth would make a man decide to do that kind of thing?
Oh, windin' up twenty-one thousand, one hundred forty pounds of string
What was he trying to prove, who was he trying to impress
Why did he build it, how did he do, it was anybody's guess
Where did he get the twine, what was goin' through his mind
Did it just seem like a good idea at the time

Well, we walked up beside it and I warned the kids
"Now, you better not touch it, those ropes are there for a reason"
I said, "Maybe if you're good, I'll tie it to the back of our car
and we can take it home", but I was only teasin'
Then we went to the gift shop and stood in line
Bought a souvineer miniature ball of twine, some window decals,
and anything else they'd sell us
And we bought a couple post cards, "Greetings from the twine ball,
wish you were here"
Won't the folks back home be jealous

I gave our camera to Bernie and we stood by the ball and we all gathered
'round and said, "Cheese"
The Bernie ran away with my brand new Insti-Matic,
but at least we got our memories
Then we all just stared at the ball for a while and my eyes got moist,
but I said with a smile, "Kids, this here's what America's all about"
Then I started feelin' kinda gooey inside and I fell on my knees
and I cried and cried
And that's when those security guards threw us out
You know, I bet if we unravelled that sucker,
It'd roll all the way down to Fargo, North Dakota
'Cause it's the biggest ball of twine in Minnesota
I'm talkin' 'bout the biggest ball of twine in Minnesota

Well, we stayed that night at the Twine Ball Inn
In the morning we were on our way home again
But we really didn't want to leave, that was perfectly clear
I said, "Folks, I can tell you're all sad to go"
Then I winked my eye and I said, "You know, I got a funny kind of feelin'
we'll be comin' back again next year"
'Cause I've been all around this great big world
And I can't think of anywhere else I'd rather go to
Than the biggest ball of twine in Minnesota
I said the biggest ball of twine in Minnesota
Minnesota
Minnesota

Best of Intentions- Travis Tritt

Oooh, oh, oh, yeah.
I had big plans for our future:
Said I'd give you the whole world, somehow.
I tried makin' good on that promise;
Thought I'd be so much further by now.
Never could build you a castle,
Even though you're the queen of my heart.
But I've had the best of intentions from the start.

Now some people think I'm a loser,
'Cause I seldom get things right.
But you make me feel like a winner,
When you wrap me in your arms so tight.
Please tell me you will remember,
No matter how much I do wrong,
That I had the best of intentions all along.

I gave you a ring, and I promised you things,
I always thought we'd do.
But my best-laid plans slipped right through my hands,
To show my love for you.
And if you could read my heart,
Then you'd know without exception,
It was all with the best of intentions.

Instrumental bridge.

I gave you a ring, and I promised you things,
I always thought we'd do.
But my best-laid plans slipped right through my hands,
To show my love for you.
And if you could read my heart,
Then you'd know without exception,
It was all with the best of intentions.

So here I am, asking forgiveness,
And praying that you'll understand.
Don't think I take you for granted,
Girl, I know just how lucky I am.
Though you deserve so much better,
You won't find devotion more true,
'Cause I've had the best of intentions;
Girl, I've had the best of intentions;
Yes, I've had the best of intentions loving you.

La Belle Dame Sans Regrets - Sting

Dansons tu dis
Et moi, je suis
Mes pas sont gauches
Mes pieds tu fauches
Je crains les sots
Je cherche en vain les mots
Pour m'expliquer ta vie, alors
Tu ments, ma Soeur
Tu brises mon coeur
Je pense, tu sais
Erreurs, jamais
J'ecoute, tu parles
Je ne comprends pas bien
La belle dame sans regrets

Je pleure, tu ris
Je chante, tu cries
Tu semes les graines
D'un mauvais ch‚ne
Mon ble s'envole
Tu en a ras le bol
J'attends, toujours
Mes cris sont sourds
Tu ments, ma Soeur
Tu brises mon coeur
Je pense, tu sais
Erreurs, jamais
J'ecoute, tu parles
Je ne comprends pas bien
La belle dame sans regrets...

I know my French isn't perfect... this is pretty close

(english translation)
Let's dance, you say,
And me, I follow.
My steps are awkard,
My feet you reap.
I fear fools,
I search in vain for words
To find my own explanation to your life, so...
You lie, my sister,
You break my heart.
I think, you know,
Mistakes, never.
I listen, you speak,
I don't understand well
The beautiful lady with no regrets

I cry, you laugh,
I sing, you shout.
You sow the seeds
Of a bad oak.
My wheat flies away,
you are fed up with it.
I am waiting, still,
My screams make no sound.
You lie, my sister,
You break my heart.
I think, you know,
Mistakes, never.
I listen, you speak,
I don't understand well
The beautiful lady with no regrets...

Light a Match by Beautiful Mistake

I try, to reach. Your outstretched arm so what do I? I try. I fail you.

Light a Match! For I deserve to burn!

[Colorado Cajun]

Part of Me
Linkin Park


Part of me won't go away
Everyday reminded how much I hate it
Weighted against the consequences
Can't live without it so it's senseless
Wanna cut it out of my soul
And just live with a gaping hole
Take control of my life
And wash out all the burnt taste
I made the problems in the first place
Hang my head low Ôcause it's part of me
Ya hardly see right next to the heart of me
Heard of me the routine scar
New cuts cover where the old ones are
And now I'm sick of this
I can't stand the sandpaper thoughts that grade on my sanity
I rather not even be then the man that's staring in the mirror through me
Cut myself free willingly
Stop just what's killing me
Cut myself free willingly
Stop just what's killing me
Cut myself free willingly
Stop just what's killing me
Cut myself free willingly
Stop just what's killing me

I feel it everyday
I feel I made my way
I feel it swell up inside, swell up inside
Swallowing me

Freedom can be frightening if you've never felt it
Once it's been dealt with you feel like you've been touched by something angelic
And then melted down into a pool of peace
Cease to be the animal you used to be
Remove the broken parts you know were wrong
And feel the calm when the problem's all gone
And then you start to see another piece of yourself that you can't let be
Memories of the last fight to free yourself
Take it to the depths of the bottom of the well
And now you know you can choose to lose the part in your heart
Where your insides bruise
You can live if you're willing to
Put a stop to just what's killing you

Cut myself free willingly
Stop just what's killing me
Cut myself free willingly
Stop just what's killing me
Cut myself free willingly
Stop just what's killing me
Cut myself free willingly
Stop just what's killing me

I feel it everyday
I feel I made my way
I feel it swell up inside, swell up inside
Swallowing me

Alive in me, inside of me, a part of me screams away silently (repeats w/ next line...)
This part of me won't go away, part of me won't go away

Everywhere I look around I see how everything aught to be
Every time I see myself there's always something wrong with me

I feel it everyday
I feel I made my way
I feel it swell up inside, swell up inside
Swallowing me
I feel it everyday
I feel I made my way
I feel it swell up inside, swell up inside
Swallowing me

I feel it swell up inside, swell up inside, swallowing me
I feel it swell up inside, swell up inside, swallowing me


Carousel

She can't hide no matter how hard she tries
Her secret disguise behind the lies
And at night she cries away her pride
With eyes shut tight, and staring at her inside
All her friends know why she can't sleep at night
All her family asking if she's all right
All she wants to do is get rid of this hell
Well all she's gotta do is stop kidding herself
She can only fool herself for so long
She can only fool herself for so long
She can only fool herself for so long
I'm too weak to face me
She can only fool herself

I never know just why you run
So far away, far away from me
I never know just why you run
So far away, far away from me

When it comes to how to live his life
He can't be told
Says he's got it all under control
Thinks he knows it's not a problem he's stuck with
But in reality, it'd be a problem to just quit
An addict and he can't hold the reins
The pain is worse cause his friends have it the same
Tries to slow down the problem he's got
But can't get off the carousel
Until he makes it stop

He can only fool himself for so long
He can only fool himself for so long
He can only fool himself for so long
I'm too weak to face me
He can only fool himself

I never know just why you run
So far away, far away from me
I never know just why you run
So far away, far away from me

Fly with me under the wings I gave you
Try to be closer to me and I'll save you
Fly with me under the wings I gave you
Try to be closer to me and I'll save you

I never know just why you run
So far away, far away from me
I never know just why you run
So far away, far away from me
I never know just why you run
So far away, far away from me
I never know just why you run
So far away, far away from me

"Fade To Black"
Metallica
from the 1984 album "Ride The Lightning"

Life it seems will fade away
Drifting further everyday
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
But Death greets me warm, now I will just say goodbye.

Goodbye.

"Master Of Puppets"
Metallica
from the 1986 album "Master Of Puppets"

End of passion play, crumbling away
I'm your source of self-destruction
Veins that pump with fear, sucking darkest clear
Leading on your deaths construction
Taste me you will see, more is all you need
Dedicated to, how I'm killing you

Come crawling faster
Obey your master
Your life burns faster
Obey your master...master
Master of puppets I'm pulling your strings
Twisting your mind and smashing your dreams
Blinded by me you can't see a thing
Just call my name 'cause I'll hear you scream
Master...master
Just call my name 'cause I'll hear you scream
Master...master

Needlework the way, never you betray
Life of death becoming clearer
Pain monopoly, ritual misery
Chop your breakfast on a mirror
Taste me you will see, more is all you need
Dedicated too, how I'm killing you

Come crawling faster
Obey your master
Your lif
