Amen to "Everything is Everything"...there are few songs that are better (and the video is PERFECT as well).
Hi Pea!
 
Padded Walls - Mike Ladd
I gots midnight shakes for you,
Aches for you.
My pores are sticky wells,
I feel like external napalm gel in a can.
Eyes cleared, all alone for you
I got to pace for you,
Up and down
Say your name three times,
And deal with what I found.
I got my insides like a parasite
Little ape critters that serve me jitters,
Over you.
Crazy, queasy,
I keep cockroach oil in the palm of my hand.
Pink elephants are irrelevant.
I got holes in my socks,
And too many wet spots,
But none from you.
I got this darkroom to myself,
Nobody else.
I'm waiting for you in hollow halls,
I need padded walls.
I need padded walls.
I conjure feelings,
While I sweat you out.
I gotta sweat you out.

The way young lovers do - Van Morrison
We...
We strolled through fields all wet with rain
And back along the lane again
There in the sunshine
In the sweet summertime
Oh the way that young lovers do
I kissed you on the lips once more
We said goodbye at your front door
There in the nighttime
Love, that's the right time
Oh to feel the way that young lovers do
Then we sat on our own star and dreamed of the way that we were and the
way that we wanted to be
Then we sat on our own star and dreamed of the way that I was for you
and that you were for me
And then we long to dance the night away
And turned to each other saying 'I love you, baby I love you'
Oh the way that young lovers do
Oh the way...
Oh the way that young lovers do
The way young lovers do
The way young lovers do
The way young lovers do
The way young lovers do
The way young lovers...
Now won't you love me the way young lovers do
Oh won't you love me the way that young lovers do
Oh the way...
Won't you love me the way that young lovers do
It's so close
I can't feel you
Take your time on my body
Aren't you weird of going crazy
Crazy, crazy, crazy, crazy...
And we sat on our own star and dreamed of the way that we were and the way
that we wanted to be
And we sat on our own star and dreamed of the way that I was for you
and that you were for me
Oh, baby, babe
Then we long to dance the night away
And turned to each other saying 'I love you, baby, I love you'
Oh, yes...
[Cocteau Twins part]
Peep hole, Peach blow, Pandora, Pompadour
Pale leaf, Pink sweet, Persephone
I held her with her looking down
And I kissed her, with the snow falling down
There in the street light
Oh, it was a sweet night
And the way that young lovers do
Oh, the way that young lovers do
Oh the way that young... Oh
Oh the ways you do, yes it's you... Yes
[That's all I ask Part]
Oh, don't try to blow out the sun from me, baby
Oh, and I'm hopin' for what I know can't be
All that I ask is for your kiss each day
And I'll give you love that will never go away
I'll give you love that will never go away
Oh the way that young lovers do
 
Lamb - Just is
What kind of fool am I
Reaching into a world
I thought might have changed
Somehow re-arranged?
Yet here I am
Stepping into the night
Like a keenly sharpened knife
Carving holes in my life
When I know
That
What is, just is?
What is, just is?
What is, just is?
What is, just is?
You see I’ve been somewhere
Not far away, but such a different space
Just to sit in one place...
And just when I thought
I could take no more
The bells started to ring
My soul to sing
And I know
That
What is, just is?
What is, just is?
What is, just is?
What is, just is
Chasing the tail of understanding
As it runs through my mind
Chasing the tail of understanding
As it runs through my mind
When I know
That
Hmm, oh what is, just is?
What is, just is?
What is, just is?
What is, just is
Just is
 
Coming Honey - "Bliss"
Bliss is not the consequential phase
Never coming down on better days
Disturbed uncertain if erect
Though not recalling impact yet
Proposing only for the sound
Seduce intention to become unwound
Never coming down on better days
Reducing vision to a vibrant haze
Unnerved by promising to wait
Searching for vows to desecrate
Missing moments missing sets
Serence entranced but can't forget
Pinned improper out of place
Defining further depth to waste
Never coming down on better days
Never coming down on better days
Bliss is not the consequential phase
Once understood it all looks strange
Excised and warped then rearranged
Isolation coming closed
Stripped down is better than exposed
Excited only to regress
Consumed by what can't be possessed
Bliss is not the consequential phase
Never coming down on better days
Bliss is not the consequential phase.
 
I know im probably going to get some kind of flack for putting these lyrics up here but this song came on the radio and maybe it's the sappy, sad mood that im in today but the song really touched me I dont know how to explain it but **shrugs** these lyrics appealed to me today!
Nsync-Gone..There's a thousand words that I could say
To make you come home
Oh, seems so long ago you walked away
Left me alone
I remember what you said to me
You were acting so strange
and maybe I was too blind to see
That you needed a change
Was it something I said
To make you turn away?
To make you walk out and leave me cold
If I could just find a way
To make it so that you were right here
But right now..
I've been sitting here
Can't get you off my mind
I've tried my best to be a man and be strong
I've drove myself insane
Wishing I could touch your face
But the truth remains..
You're gone..
You're gone..
Baby you're gone
Girl you're gone, baby girl, you're gone..
You're gone..
You're...
I don't wanna make excuses, baby
Won't change the fact that you're gone
But if there's something that I could do
Won't you please let me know?
Time is passing so slowly now
Guess that's my life without you
and maybe I could change my every day
But baby I don't want to
So I'll just hang around
and find some things to do
To take my mind off missing you
and I know in my heart
You can't say that you don't love me too
Please say you do
Yeeaah....
I've been sitting here
Can't get you off my mind
I've tried my best to be a man and be strong
I Drove myself insane
Wishing I could touch your face
But the truth remains
You're gone..
You're gone..
You're gone
You're gone...you're gone.. you're....
Gone
Ohhh...
Oh what'll I do
If I can't be with you
Tell me where will I turn to
Baby where will I be
We are apart
Am I still in your heart?
Baby why don't you see?
That I need you here with me
Oohhh...
I've been sitting here
Can't get you off my mind
I've tried my best to be a man and be strong
I've drove myself insane
Wishing I could touch your face
But the truth remains
Been sitting here
Can't get you off my mind
I've tried my best to be a man and be strong
I drove myself insane
Wishing I could touch your face
But the truth remains
You're gone..
You're gone..
You're gone
You're gone
Gone
You're gone..
But the truth remains
You're....

This song is so fucking sad. For those of you who don't know, two members of Rancid (tim armstrong and matt freeland) used to be in the (IMHO) single best and most influential new school punk band ever, Operation Ivy. Op Ivy's stint as a band lasted only 2 years, 1987-1989. They were based in the east bay (SF) and saw there popularity in that area and the rest of the california punk scene explode, and the singer of Op Ivy, Jesse, couldn't handle the stress and pressure, so he left, and literally went into exile. Recently he has emerged back into the public eye, doing some (I believe) A&R work for the legendary Bay Area punk rock record label Lookout!.
Anway, I babble. There is a verse in this song, that just tears me up every time I hear it, not only becuase the words are so powerful, but because of the way Tim sings it. If you have ever been in a band, or have an intense passion for music (especially live music) then you know what I mean.
Journey To The End Of The East Bay <--- Click to download the song
-Rancid
reconcile to the relief
consumed in sacred ground for me
there wasn't always a place to go
but there was always an urgent need to belong here
all these bands and
all these people
all these friends and we were equals
but what you gonna do when everybody goes on without you?
to the end to the end i'll journey to the end
started in 87 ended in 89
got a garage or an amp we'll play anytime
it was just the 4 of us,
yeah man the core of us
too much attention unavoidably destroyed us
4 kids on tour,
3000 miles
in a 4-door car
not know what was goin' on
we got a million years
of tourin' out like this
hell no no premonition coulda seen this
to the end to the end i'll journey to the end
Matty came from far away
from new orleans into the east bay
he said this is a mecca
i said this ain't no mecca man,
this place's fucked
3 months go by,
he had no home
he had no food
he's all alone
matty said fool me once shame on you
He said fool me twice
he moved back to new orleans
to the end to the end i'll journey to the end
 
"Correction I need no direction
Oh let me go just one last time
I spend my whole life searching for direction
Oh let me go just one last time"
 
hmmm...sorry.... one last post... maybe...
Rattlesnake
-Rancid
For weeks your falling, that's my darling
Hear them calling drawing you back
Sawing you in two, using me, using you
What can you do?
Watch out Mack, here's a rat
Falling off the track, fade out black
Black in feedback, hit the flashback
Don't you know we hate that?
Your a rattlesnake
And your full of shit
Your a rattlesnake
Your a rattlesnake
Fuck that shit, I don't wanna hear it
You can't bare it when we blare it
I hate your band, you understand?
You got no passion, it's all fashion
Well you come you can, come come true
Calm down, flames red or blue
You don't know, you got no clue
I see through
Your a rattlesnake
And your full of shit
I fuckin hate you
Your a rattlesnake
You talk that shit about our crew, we hate you
You said you know us, we don't know you
You Jump on the next bandwagon
What's the next fan in, I heard you braggin
But you ain't shit, you get frustrated
We never hesitated to call you a Charlatan
CAUSE WE HATE YOU!!!
Your a rattlesnake
And your full of shit
I fuckin hate you
Your a rattlesnake
 
Ok ive realllllly been into Pink Floyd lately so heres yet another song from The Wall....
In The Flesh?
So ya thought ya might like to
go to the show
To feel the warm thrill of confusion
that space cadet glow
Tell me is something eluding you sunshine?
Is this not what you expected to see?
If you wanna find out whats behind these cold eyes
youll just have to claw your way through this disguise
and another song by the greatest band in the world,TOOL
Eulogy
He had a lot to say
He had a lot of nothing to say
We'll miss him
He had a lot to say
He had a lot of nothing to say
We'll miss him
We're gonna miss him
So long, we wish you well
You told us how you werent afraid to die
Well so long, dont 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
Raving and pointing his finger
At everything but his heart
We'll miss him
We're gonna miss him
Theres no way to recall
What it was that you had said to me,
Like I care at all
But it was soooo loud
And you sure could yell
Took a stand on every little thing
and soooo loud
(said in a very wierd effect thats hard to understand)
youuuuuuu
could beeeeee
the oneeeeee
who savesssss
me frommmmm
my ownnnnnn
existence
Standing above the crowd
He had a voice that was strong and loud
And I swallowed his facade cuz Im so
Eager to identify with
Someone above the ground
Someone who seemed to feel the same
Someone prepared to lead the way and
Someone who would die for me
Will you?
Will you now?
Would you die for me?
Dont you fuckin lie!
Dont you step out of line
Dont you step out of line
Dont you step out of line
Dont you fuckin lie!
You claimed all this time
That you would die for me
Why, then, are you so supprised
When you hear your own
Eu-lo-gy
He had a lot to say
He had a lot of nothing to say
He had a lot to say
He had a lot of nothing to say!
Come down
Get off your fuckin cross
We need the Fuckin space
To nail the next fool martyr
To ascend you must die
You must be crucified
For your sins and your lies
Good bye......
 
Up from the skies
I just want to talk to you
I won't uh, do you no harm
I just want to know about your different lives
On this is here people farm
I heard some of you got your families
Living in cages tall and cold
And some just stay there and dust away
Past the age of old.
Is this true ?
Please let me talk to you.
I just wanna know about
The rooms behind your minds
Uh do I see a vacuum there
Or am I going blind ?
Or is it just uh, remains of vibrations
And echoes long ago ?
Uh things like "Love the world" and uh
Uh "Let your fancy flow"
Is this true ?
Please let me talk to you
Let me talk to you.
I have lived here before
The days of ice
And of course this is why
I'm so concerned
And I come back to find
The stars misplaced
And the smell of a world
That is burned
A smell of a world
That is burned.
Yeah well, maybe, hmm...
Maybe it's just a... change of climate
Hmm, hmm...
Well I can dig it
I can dig it baby
I just want to see.
So where do I purchase my ticket ?
I'd just like to have a ringside seat
I want to know about the new Mother Earth
I want to hear and see everything
I want to hear and see everything
I want to hear and see everything
--Jimi Hendrix
 
:)
I, I'm so in love with you
Whatever you want to do
Is all right with meeeeeeeeeee
'Cause you make me feel so brand new
And I want to spend my life with you
They say since, baby, since we've been together
Loving you forever
Is what I neeeeeeeeeeeeeeeed
Let me be the one you come running to
I'll never be untrue
Let's, let's stay together
Lovin' you whether, whether
Times are good or bad, happy or sad
Whether times are good or bad, happy or sad
Why, why some people break up
Then turn around and make up
I just can't seeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
You'd never do that to me (would you, baby)
Staying around you is all I see
(Here's what I want us to do)
Let's, we oughta stay together
Loving you whether, whether
Times are good or bad, happy or sad
Al Green/Let's Stay Together
 
Hey Spencer, back when I used to listen to a little punk, I listened to that Rancid album (And out come the wolves?) a lot and "journey to the end of the east bay" was definitely my favorite song. I can still hum out that distinctive bass line even though I havent heard the song in 3-4 years. Thanks for reminding me of it.
I even saw a Rancid show back in '95 (but they didnt play "Journey . . . ").
also a big fan of the song "she's automatic"
 
Invalid inner sentiment,
a sound that rushes over me
ingage in impule to protect,
i have a faith in god
not forgetting what it means to dream,
indulging everything
entertaining thoughts that ive once seen (?)
and those i am to be
children tribute dreams to saviors,
reckless thoughts of mind
and act of instinct and impulsive...
And what will happen, will i dream?
I am to scared to close my eyes
For a second please hold me...
None can change in me these things that i believe
and i dont know what happens now,
I am to scared to close my eyes
to close my eyes
to close my eyes...
-VNV NATION-
I felt the air rise up in me... haha just kidding.

"Poor old Johnny Ray
Sounded sad upon the radio
He moved a million hearts in mono
Our mothers cried and sang along and who'd blame them
Now you're grown, so grown, now I must say more than ever
Go toora loora toora loo rye aye
And we can sing just like our fathers
Come on Eileen, well I swear (what he means)
At this moment, you mean everything
With you in that dress my thoughts I confess
Verge on dirty
Ah come on Eileen
These people round here wear beaten down eyes
Sunk in smoke dried faces
They're so resigned to what their fate is
But not us, no not us
We are far too young and clever
Toora loora toora loo rye aye
Eileen I'll hum this tune forever
Come on Eileen well I swear (what he means)
Ah come on, let's take off everything
That pretty red dress Eileen (tell him yes)
Ah come on Eileen..
the album says these lyrics "vary slightly from the ones you'll hear on the album. We have intentionally presented them this way to make them easier to read."
Here are the "as complete as I can get them lyrics:"
Poor old Johnny Ray
Sounded sad upon the radio
Moved a million hearts in mono
Our mothers cried
Sang along, who'd blame them
Now you're grown, so grown, now I must say more than ever
Go toora loora toora loo rye aye
And we can sing just like our fathers
Come on Eileen, well I swear (what he means)
At this moment, you mean everything
With you in that dress my thoughts I confess

Ah come on Eileen
These people round here wear beaten down eyes
Sunk in smoke dried faces
They're so resigned to what their fate is
But not us (no never), no not us (no never)
We are far too young and clever
Remember
Eileen I'll sing [hum] this tune forever
Come on Eileen well [oh] I swear (what he means)
Ah come on, let's take off everything
That pretty red dress Eileen (tell him yes)
Ah come on Eileen
That pretty red dress, Eileen (tell him yes)
Ah come on let's, ah come on Eileen
Please...
Come on Eileen too-loo rye-aye come on
Eileen too-loo rye-aye toora toora-too-loora
Now you have grown, now you have shown, oh Eileen
Come on Eileen, these things they are real and I know
how you feel
Now I must say more than ever
things round here have changed
Too-ra loo-ra too-ra loo-rye-aye"
 
Im still feeling Sappy & Sad today (I dont know what my problem is!) Today it's Jon B and Tupac R U Still Down..
Girl it's alright babe
are you still down for me now?
cause it's there in your eyes yea
are you still down for me?
I can see that you want me
are you still down for me now?
by the way that you smile
yea are you still down for me?
Left once again at home, another night your home
Ain't no fun if in love not at home alone
How's it feel to be useless, all night, tell me
Can you recall how we use to be there
Can't use to remember those feeling again
Seem like everytime I see you there's a tear in your eye
What you cryin for? Time to make a decision or go dyin inside
Tell em all, call me fool but I'm stuck
It's a love thang, plus I'm overheatin from the rush
Times have touch, get ya feeling fireworks we watch the sky
I'll make you smile but you'd rather have what makes you cry
Say goodbye and I'll leave now
With my heart on my sleeve, memories down
What I found is you still care
You had feeling and they still there
Baby girl keep it real - are you still down?
Girl it's alright babe
Come on are you still down?
cause it's there in your eyes yea, it's in your eyes
I can see it in your eyes
Are you still down?
I can see that you want me
Don'tcha want me don'tcha want me
Are you still down?
by the way that you smile, hahaha yea
Are you still down for me?
Remember that evening
Yea are you still down?
I know that you were too scared to go all the way, please
but you did it to please me
Crying it was raining when you gave it to me
The more I see the more I feel inside
And I know one thing I'll make it back to where you can fly
Watch the time go
Don't cry tomorrow is a better day
What cha cryin for? Let me dry your eyes
Think you burnin out...
Only once in a lifetime, touch my soul
So slow babe boo, don't rush the flow
Got me all weak baby but I'm strong apart
With more bounce to the ounce with the longest parts
Get me mined like fine wine measured in time
Maybe the other brothers loved you but the pleasure was mine
Mama taught me how to love a woman properly sprung
We committed so I hit it and it's properly done
Girl it's alright babe
Come on, are you still down?
cause it's there in your eyes yea
It's in your eyes I can see it in your eyes
Are you still down?
I can see that you want me
Don'tcha want me don'tcha want me
Are you still down?
By the way that you smile, hahaha yea
Are you still down for me?
Girl it's alright babe
Come on, are you still down for me now?
cause it's there in your eyes yea
It in your eyes I can see it in your eyes
Are you still down?
I can see that you want me
She want you Jon she want you
Are you still down?
By the way that you smile
She got smile look...
Baby are you still down,
are you down for me?
Baby are you still down,
Still down for me!
(Repeat till end)
 
summer-modest mouse
wake-up we're stealing cars
1996 1997 1998 we're all waiting for the year 2000
just the smell on the summer can make me fall in love
we go to the parties listen to the DJ's
dance dance dance and go crazy
she's a party queen an she's in party heaven
her clock is stuck on late
got a first name basis at 7-11
hold the slip slide taste the sweat it's salty
irrigation ditch and a swimming hole
nation-wide loved the movie
 
LL - Come on Eileen is and always will be my favorite song from the 80's era. I love that song :)
 
Those eyes burn holes into the starry night.
And when her sleepy eyes open wide
you can barely dance beneath her light.
And I'd love to get to the natives,
but I'm only flesh and blood.
She'll share your joys but not your sorrows...
Mistress of the coming flood.
Hina
Cool upon the silent seas
Hina
Isn't she the Moon Queen
Hina
Whispering in my dreams "you must come back to me".
And the tides rise
and a distant sigh
falls on deaf ears.
Her vision makes you every inch a king,
a king for a million years.
And she loves you when your leavin,
and she'll leave you if you stay.
She says "don't tell me that you love me,
you'll hate me for hearing it,
when I drift away."
Hina
I can hear you softly cry
Hina
Your songs and lullabies
Hina
I'll whisper in your dreams 'till you come back to me.
Come back
But she will never stay
Come BACK
And you must never wait
Never wait.
 
Well I woke up and started humming it :)
"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"
~Tom Petty-
