Depeche Mode People Are People Lyrics


People are people so why should it be
You and I should get along so awfully

So we're different colours
And we're different creeds
And different people have different needs
It's obvious you hate me
Though I've done nothing wrong
I never even met you
So what could I have done

I can't understand
What makes a man
Hate another man
Help me understand

People are people so why should it be
You and I should get along so awfully

Help me understand

Now you're punching and you're kicking
And you're shouting at me
I'm relying on your common decency
So far it hasn't surfaced
But I'm sure it exists
It just takes a while to travel
From your head to your fist

I can't understand
What makes a man
Hate another man

Help me understand
 
Sober - Pink

I dont wanna be the girl who laughs the loudest,
Or the girl who never wants to be alone.
I dont wanna be that call at 4 o'clock in the morning,
'Cause I'm the only one you know in the world that won't be home.

Ah-ah-ah, the sun is blinding.
Ah-ah, I stayed up again.
Oh-oh-oh, what a finding.
That's not the way I want my story to end

I'm safe up high,
Nothing can touch me.
Why do I feel this party's over?
No pain inside, you're my protection.
How do I feel this good sober?

I dont wanna be the girl that has to fill the silence.
The quiet scares me 'cause it screams the truth.
Please dont tell me that we had that conversation,
I wont remember, save your breath, 'cause what's the use?

Ah-ah-ah, the night is calling,
And it whispers to me softly: "Come and play..."
Ah-ah-ah, and I am falling.
And if I let myself go, I'm the only one to blame!

I'm safe up high,
Nothing can touch me.
But why do I feel this party's over?
No pain inside, you're like perfection.
But how do I feel this good sober?

2x Coming down, coming down, coming down.
Spinning round, spinning round, spinning round.
I'm looking for myself, sober.

When it's good, then it's good, it's so good, 'til it goes bad.
'Til you're trying to find the you that you once had.
I have heard myself cry, never again!
Broken down in agony, just tryin' to find a friend...

I'm safe up high,
Nothing can touch me.
But why do I feel this party's over?
No pain inside, you're like perfection.
But how do I feel this good sober?

I'm safe up high,
Nothing can touch me.
But why do I feel this party's over?
No pain inside, you're like perfection.
But how do I feel this good sober?

Passover

This is a crisis I knew had to come,
Destroying the balance I'd kept.
Doubting, unsettling and turning around,
Wondering what will come next.
Is this the role that you wanted to live?
I was foolish to ask for so much.
Without the protection and infancy's guard,
It all falls apart at first touch.

Watching the reel as it comes to a close,
Brutally taking it's time,
People who change for no reason at all,
It's happening all of the time.
Can I go on with this train of events?
Disturbing and purging my mind,
Back out of my duties, when all's said and done,
I know that I'll lose every time.

Moving along in our God given ways,
Safety is sat by the fire,
Sanctuary from these feverish smiles,
Left with a mark on the door,
Is this the gift that I wanted to give?
Forgive and forget's what they teach,
Or pass through the deserts and wastelands once more,
And watch as they drop by the beach.

This is the crisis I knew had to come,
Destroying the balance I'd kept,
Turning around to the next set of lives,
Wondering what will come next...

K'S CHOICE LYRICS
Not An Addict



Breathe it in and breathe it out
And pass it on, it's almost out
We're so creative, so much more
We're high above but on the floor

It's not a habit, it's cool, I feel alive
If you don't have it you're on the other side

The deeper you stick it in your vein
The deeper the thoughts, there's no more pain
I'm in heaven, I'm a god
I'm everywhere, I feel so hot

It's not a habit, it's cool, I feel alive
If you don't have it you're on the other side
I'm not an addict (maybe that's a lie)

It's over now, I'm cold, alone
I'm just a person on my own
Nothing means a thing to me
(Nothing means a thing to me)

It's not a habit, it's cool, I feel alive
If you don't have it you're on the other side
I'm not an addict (maybe that's a lie)

Free me, leave me
Watch me as I'm going down
Free me, see me
Look at me, I'm falling and I'm falling.

It is not a habit, it is cool I feel alive I feel...
It is not a habit, it is cool I feel alive

It's not a habit, it's cool, I feel alive
If you don't have it you're on the other side
I'm not an addict (maybe that's a lie)
I'm not an addict...
 
This Is the Place Lyrics - Red Hot Chili Peppers


This is the place where all
The junkies go
Where time gets fast
But everything gets slow

Can I get some Vaseline?
Step into a modern scene
Take a chance on that which seems to be
The making of a dream

I don't wanna do it
Like my daddy did
I don't wanna give it
To my baby's kid

This is my calling
I said my darling
Shocking, appalling
All I can do to you

Hammers are falling
I said my darling
Shocking, appalling
All I can do to you

This is the place where all
The devils plead
Their case to take from you
What they need

Can I isolate your gene?
Can I kiss your dopamine?
In a way I wonder
If she's living in a magazine

I don't wanna say it
If it isn't so
I don't wanna weigh it
But I've got to know

This is my calling
I said my darling
Shocking, appalling
All I can do to you

Hammers are falling
I said my darling
Shocking, appalling
All I can do to you

I saw you out there yesterday
What did you wanna say?
A perfect piece of DNA
Caught in a flashing ray

I caught you out there in the fray
What did you wanna say?
A master piece of DNA
Caught in a flashing ray

Can I smell your gasoline?
Can I pet your wolverine?
On the day my best friend died
I

I don't wanna take it up
With little Joe
I don't wanna fake it
But I've gotta know

This is my calling
I said my darling
Shocking, appalling
All I can do to you

Hammers are falling
I said my darling
Shocking, appalling
All I can do to you

I am a misfit
I'm born with all of it
The fucking ultimate
Of love inside the atom split

I'm in a flash ray
A mash of DNA
Another popping Jay
Who thinks he's got something to say
 
Depeche Mode-stripped

Let me hear you
Make decisions
Without your television
Let me hear you speaking
Just for me
 
The Cranberries - Zombie

Another head hangs lowly
Child is slowly taken
And the violence cause of silence
Who are we mistaken?

But you see, it's not me, it's not my family
In your head, in your head they are fighting
With their tanks and their bombs
And their bombs and their guns
In your head, in your head, they are crying

In your head, in your head
Zombie, zombie, zombie
Hey, hey, hey
What's in your head, in your head
Zombie, zombie, zombie?
Hey, hey, hey, hey
Oh, do, do, dou, do, do, dou, do, do
Dou, do, do, dou, dou, do, do, dou

Another mother's breakin'
Heart is taking over
When the violence 'causes silence
We must be mistaken

It's the same old theme since 1916
In your head, in your head they're still fighting
With their tanks and their bombs
And their bombs and their guns
In your head, in your head they are dying

In your head, in your head
Zombie, zombie, zombie
Hey, hey, hey
What's in your head, in your head
Zombie, zombie, zombie?
Hey, hey, hey, hey
Oh, oh, oh oh, oh, oh, oh, hey, oh, yaa, yaa
 
You say you will wait for me to recover so we can be friends, and that you think about me all the time... But I can't do this and I don't know how to tell you.


2am; where do I begin,
Crying off my face again.
The silent sound of loneliness
Wants to follow me to bed.

I'm a ghost of a girl that I want to be most.
I'm the shell of a girl that I used to know well.

Dancing slowly in an empty room,
Can the lonely take the place of you?
I sing myself a quiet lullaby.
Let you go and let the lonely in
To take my heart again.

Too afraid to go inside
For the pain of one more loveless night.
But the loneliness will stay with me
And hold me til I fall asleep.

I'm a ghost of a girl that I want to be most.
I'm the shell of a girl that I used to know well.

Dancing slowly in an empty room,
Can the lonely take the place of you?
I sing myself a quiet lullaby.
Let you go and let the lonely in
To take my heart again.

Broken pieces of
A barely breathing story
Where there once was love
Now there's only me and the lonely.

Dancing slowly in an empty room
Can the lonely take the place of you?
I sing myself a quiet lullaby
Let you go and let the lonely in
To take my heart again.
 
"Take Back" - Adam Lambert

All you ever think is "Gimme, gimme"
But you never give back (eh eh ay)
All I ever do is overthink and drink
Until I attack (eh eh ay)

We know how to talk it into the ground
We know how to wear it out
If we ain't gon say that
Gonna end up in a grave and baby

How do we take back what's been done,
What's been said?
Oh my...
How do we take back?
Cause no one wins
When love breaks down, we both die
I would give anything just to chase the dark away
And start all over again
How do we take back what's been done,
What's been said?
Oh my...

Hey

I fed you a fantasy
But you've been drunk on reality (eh eh ay)
All you want is to be wanted
As long as you get it out of me (eh eh ay)

We used to be a jungle, sticky and wild
It used to be we owned the night
All the stupid games we play
And all the shit that we've been sayin
(Eh eh ey)

How do we take back what's been done,
What's been said?
Oh my...
How do we take back?
Cause no one wins.
When love breaks down, we both die.
I would give anything just to chase the dark away
And start all over again
How do we take back what's been done,
What's been said?
Oh my...

Remember remember the first time we collided
We lost it we lost it
Yeaaaaaah!

How do we take back what's been done,
What's been said?
Oh my...
How do we take back?
Cause no one wins
When love breaks down, we both die
I would give anything just to chase the dark away
And start all over again
How we take back what's been done,
What's been said?
Oh my...

Ohh my
How do we take back...
 
life
imitates art
you got
that medicine
i need
dope
shoot it up
straight to the heart
please
i don't really wanna
know what's good for me
god's dead
i say baby that's alright with me
 
NOFX - Total Bummer

Go away, sunny day
Go away, sunny day

All the horny people sitting
In front of their TV and thinkin'
What is wrong with me? I'm not a monster
Why won't anybody fuck me
I don't wanna live life lonely
Why does everyone have to be perfect?

Go away, sunny day
Go away, sunny day

All the barfly's sippin' whiskey
Fighting ever present pitty
Wondering what they keep sucking back for
Is it the drink or trepidation
Watching all trains leave the station
Left standing alone without a ticket

You light up my life
You give me hope
To carry on
You light up my days
And you, you light up my life

Stop searching cause there's no answer
Just a long ride of disaster
There's no simple way to stop the sadness
Life's not fair I'm glad it's not
This isn't heaven just a lonely
Planet on the verge of self-destruction
 
If I be wrong - Wolf Larson

What if I'm wrong, what if I've lied
What if I've dragged you here to my own dark night
And what if I know, what if I see
There is a crack run right down the front of me

What if they're right, what if we're wrong
What if I've lured you here with a siren song
But if I be wrong, if I be right
Let me be here with you tonight

Ten thousand cars, ten thousand trains
There are ten thousand roads to run away

But I am not lost, I am not found
I am not Dylan's wife, not Cohen's hound
But if I be wrong, if I be right
Let me be here with you tonight

And what if I can't, what if I can
What if I'm just an ordinary man

If there is a will, there is a way
I will escape for sure, I am David Blane
But if I be wrong, if I be right
Let me be here with you
If I be wrong, if I be right
Let me stay here in your arms tonight
And I have been wrong, I have been right
I have been both these things all in the same night
So if I be wrong, if I be right
Let me here with you tonight
 
Living Together - Circa Survive

It starts out like a season in reverse
A way to set your mind above and over words
Attached means identity
Erases things so how can we record?

Distress call code-word is I wanna live
He makes it up as it goes, it goes away
To places he can only hide in other peoples minds
He makes it up as it goes
It goes away

Your rational mind's insane
Taste the sound you make
When the light from the sun
It's the story that never gets sold
When the light from the sun, it is your mother

Attached means identity
Erases things so why should we...

Distress call code-word is I wanna live
He makes it up as it goes, it goes away
To places he can only hide in other peoples minds
Uh, he makes it up as it goes

With an effortless smile you pervade to be
And in-between aisles
They would say you stare to see
With an effortless smile you pervade to be
Always in-between aisles
Optimistic daring me
would you trade your soul for gold?
Would you trade your soul?
Would you trade...

and all that could have been - nin


breeze still carries the sound
maybe I'll disappear
tracks will fade in the snow
you won't find me here

ice is starting to form
ending what had begun
i am locked in my head
with what I've done

i know you tried to rescue me
didn't let anyone get in
left with a trace of all that was
and all that could have been

please, take this
and run far away, far away from me
i am tainted
the two of us were never meant to be
all these pieces and promises and left behinds
if only I could see
in my nothing
you meant everything, everything to me

gone
fading
everything

and
all that
could have been
could have been

please, take this
and run far away, far as you can see
i am tainted
and happiness and peace of mind
were never meant for me
all these pieces and promises and left behinds
if only I could see
in my nothing
you meant everything, everything to me
 
Cool thread


I know the pieces fit
Because I watched them fall away
Mildewed and smoldering
Fundamental differing
Pure intention, juxtaposed
Will set two lovers souls in motion
Disintegrating as it goes
Testing our communication

The light that fueled our fire then
Has burned a hole between us so
We cannot seem to reach an end
Crippling our communication

I know the pieces fit
Because I watched them tumble down
No fault, none to blame
it doesnt mean I dont desire
To point the finger, blame the other
Watch the temple topple over
To bring our pieces back together; rediscover communication

The poetry that comes from the squaring off between,
And the circling is worth it
Finding beauty in the dissonance

There was a time that the pieces fit
But I watched them fall away
Mildewed and smoldering
Strangled by our coveting
I've done the math enough to know
The dangers of a second guessing
Doomed to crumble unless we grow
and strengthen our communication


Cold silence has a tendency to atrophy any sense of compassion
Between supposed lovers
Between supposed lovers...

pyromance/chemlab

lovely as a split lip... soulful as the city
move and skip, swivel it
sink my fingers in your hair,
the sweat and the smell of our liquid affair
in a gasoline burn our bodies will churn,
with a flick of the switch
you're plugged into the itch
watch your videos all day... rewind and play... play and play and play

my battery got a surge from my finger triggering your spark plug
i felt that nervous boost when you bent down and licked my boots
headed in the direction of soma car-crash intersection
it's called 'why don't we do it in the road?'
at least that's what i am told

laser branded lover, syphilitic thing
bound up and tied, you can't fly without wings
over oceans of skin, bathed in perversion and sin
my parasitic couplet,
a needle descending,
my poisonous twin
you're in danger
love walks with a stranger... getting stranger all the time.

my battery got a charge with my finger triggering your spark plug
i felt that nervous boost when you bent down and licked my boots
headed in the direction of soma car-crash intersection
it's called 'why don't we do it in the road?'
or at least that's what i am told
play...
fade away...

"Daring to be different" is a cliche
"Nonconformity" is passe
There is no room for deviation
Social rules have no negation
Kiss ass, kiss ass
What else are you good for
You think you're "unique," you think you're alone
You never learned how to think on your own
Your only basis for existence
is to gain group acceptance
Kiss ass, kiss ass
Kiss ass to your peer group
Form your "opinions," repeat what is said
Make your own "choices," go where you're led
Think your own "thoughts," eat what you're fed
Strength in numbers, not in your head
Kiss ass, kiss ass
Kiss ass to your peer group
"Individuals" don't exist
Don't even bother to resist
Submit, conform, follow the norm
Obey the majority
Your group mentality
Kiss ass, kiss ass
Kiss ass to your peer group
Now you're ready for the real world
Now you're ready for reality
Now you're ready to be an adult
Get fucked up the ass by your peer group
 
well i felt like i was born today
so i took it upon me to go away
to gather my thoughts and go away
where i could (be used by) somebody
now over the hill, like always you know
were billy and frankie and henry and joe
and they beat and broke me hard and slow
to prove i was nobody
and no one i was and so i remained
knocked-out in a hut, no mother, no name
and filled up my heart with one and the same
that grand dark feeling of emptiness
and was it a friend that turned me loose
or was it a girl come to baste my goose
or was it my great god who laid on his finger
and started my clock anew
ah no, it was rain
ah no, it was gunning
it was point break and buckle
and singing and cunning
that skinned me, re-skinned me
and started me running
and i never looked back from then on
and now i am learning bit by bit
about to make and model shit
the muddy bowl i live in it
and all the mucks that tire us
and im afeared if i dont have
a piglet, lamb, or little calf
ill chop my humanness in half
and be as worm or virus
but kids ive had and they are sung
upon folks ears my babes are hung
rhythmically they live among
and grow but dont get old
not in a box, not in a void
not if their voice is never heard
nor if no one repeats a word
but if their tune is told
then we can age and fall away
to meet again some golden day
and fill it in our happy way
in starlight and in gold

-grand dark feeling of emptiness
