Lyrics Lyrics that appeal to you today... 2006-2023

neil young - the needle and the damage done

I caught you knockin'
At my cellar door
I love you, baby,
Can I have some more
Ooh, ooh, the damage done.

I hit the city and
I lost my band
I watched the needle
Take another man
Gone, gone, the damage done.

I sing the song
Because I love the man
I know that some
Of you don't understand
Milk-blood
To keep from running out.

I've seen the needle
And the damage done
A little part of it in everyone
But every junkie's
Like a settin' sun.

...kytnism...:|
 
Love is a fire.
Burns down all that it sees.
Burns down everything.
Everything you think
Burns down
Everything you say.

She blew me her death-kiss
And the mouth-marks
Bled down my eye,
Like her dying
On my windshield.
I can already feel
Her worms
Eating my spine.
So how can it be this lonely?
Is this all we get
For our lives?
Is love only sweeter when
One of dies?

Then I knew that our love was
Just a car crash away.
I knew that our love was just a car crash away.
I knew that our love was
Just a car crash away.
I knew that our love was
Just a car crash away.

Love is a fire.
Burns down all that it sees.
Burns down everything.
Everything you think
Burns Down
Everything you say. [x3]

Love is a fire.
Burns down all that it sees.
Burns down everything.
Everything you think
Burns Down
Everything you say.

[backup vocals]
I knew that our love was
Just a
Car
Crash
Away.

I knew that our love was
Just a
Car
Crash
Away.

[repeat to end of solo]

Love is a fire.
Burns down all that it sees.
Burns down everything.
Everything you think
Burns Down
Everything you say.

Love is a fire.
Burns down all that it sees.
Burns down everything.
Everything you think
Burns Down
Everything you say.

"You Will See Me" Dan Le Sac Vs Scroobius Pip

You are my new inspiration
My muse
And I mean that not as a compliment

I will use you to cruise through any writer's block
Any lazy daze when a glazed gaze invades my mind's cave of creativity
I will think of you…and what you did to me

I will take negativity and make it inspire me
I was not a book from a library
As I stand here alone, I declare I was not a loan
To be picked up and dropped off at a later date

And you barely even made my spine bend
Just skimmed through some of the interesting bits then skipped to the end

The notes you left in my margins turned from scribbles to scars
But here's the best part:
You didn't even realise you were reading the first draft of a best seller
The manuscript of a future Nobel prize winner

This book you discarded as a pamphlet will ignite shit

I will write ten times harder than before
I will create art, I will create beauty
I will create so many things that you can't ignore
But I will not do them in your name

I will not shout you from the roof tops
I will tap your name out in morse code on my outer thigh
As I casually accept plaudits from on high
I will not to try to win you back
I do not want you back

I just want to show you
I just need to show you what you fucking walked away from
I will achieve all my goals ten-fold
I will achieve your goals too, casually

I will have happiness and joy in my life
I will fall in love; husband, child and wife
I will shine brighter than I could ever have dreamed to be
And you will see me

And you will see. Me

I will make rivers run red in your anonymity
The screams of nations will echo our affinity
My wrath will be relentless
My path of destruction will be momentously momentous

I will change the face of history and paint it in my likeness
And I will like this

I will destroy everything that you hold dear
By simply destroying everything far and near
My footsteps will be impossible not to hear
I will watch you from afar and taste each tear

I will wipe out entire races
I will erase faces and displace with great haste and no graces
This world will become my plaything
Embracing my ways and then just breaking

I will burn this entire world to the ground
I will leave a mark greater than any have ever left before
I will lay waste by land, air and sea
And you will see me

And you. Will see. Me

EMINEM- Bad Guy (Outro):

I also represent anyone on the receiving end of those jokes you offend
I'm the nightmare you fell asleep in and woke up still in
I'm your karma closing in with each stroke of a pen
Perfect time to have some remorse to show for your sin
Nope, it's hopeless, I'm the denial that you're hopelessly in
When they say all of this is approaching its end
But you refuse to believe that it's over, here we go all over again
Back's to the wall, I’m stacking up all them odds, toilet's clogged
Yeah ‘cause I’m talking a lotta shit but I’m backing it all up
But in my head there’s a voice in the back and it hollers
After the track is demolished
"I am your lack of a conscience"
I’m the ringing in your ears
I’m the polyps on the back of your tonsils
Eating your vocal chords after your concerts
I’m your time that’s almost up that you haven’t acknowledged
Grab for some water but I’m that pill that’s too jagged to swallow
I’m the bullies you hate that you became
With every faggot you slaughtered
Coming back on you every woman you insult, batter
but the double-standards you have when it comes to your daughters
I represent everything you take for granted
‘Cause Marshall Mathers the rapper’s persona’s have a façade and
Matthew and Stan just symbolic of you not knowing what you had 'til it’s gone
‘Cause after all the glitz and the glam no more fans that are calling your name
Cameras are off, sad but it happens to all of them,
I'm the hindsight to say, “I told you so!”
Foreshadows of all the things that are to follow
I'm the future that's here to show you what happens tomorrow
If you don’t stop after they call you
Biggest laughing stock of rap who can’t call it quits
When it’s time to walk away
I’m every guilt trip the baggage you have
But as you gather up all your possessions
If there's anything you have left to say
Unless it makes an impact then don't bother
So before you rest your case
Better make sure you're packing a wallop
 
You know it!



Well I saw the thing comin' out of the sky
It had the one long horn, one big eye
I commenced to shakin' and I said "ooh-eee"
It looks like a purple eater to me

It was a one-eyed, one-horned, flyin' purple people eater
(One-eyed, one-horned, flyin' purple people eater)
A one-eyed, one-horned, flyin' purple people eater
Sure looks strange to me (One eye?)

Well he came down to earth and he lit in a tree
I said Mr. Purple People Eater, don't eat me
I heard him say in a voice so gruff
I wouldn't eat you cuz you're so tough

It was a one-eyed, one-horned, flyin' purple people eater
One-eyed, one-horned flyin' purple people eater
One-eyed, one-horned, flyin' purple people eater
Sure looks strange to me (One horn?)

I said Mr. Purple People Eater, what's your line
He said it's eatin' purple people and it sure is fine
But that's not the reason that I came to land
I wanna get a job in a rock and roll band

Well bless my soul, rock and roll, flyin' purple people eater
Pigeon-toed, undergrowed, flyin' purple people eater
(We wear short shorts)
Flyin' purple people eater
Sure looks strange to me

And then he swung from the tree and he lit on the ground
He started to rock, really rockin' around
It was a crazy ditty with a swingin' tune
Sing a boop boop aboopa lopa lum bam boom

Well bless my soul, rock and roll, flyin' purple people eater
Pigeon-toed, undergrowed, flyin' purple people eater
I like short shorts
Flyin' little people eater
Sure looks strange to me (Purple People?)

And then he went on his way, and then what do ya know
I saw him last night on a TV show
He was blowing it out, a'really knockin' em dead
Playin' rock and roll music through the horn in his head

"Cough Syrup"
Butthole Surfers

She played for the angels
I played for the tribe
The summer had been stolen and the bases were all loaded
There was big Money on the line
Big money all the time yeah
There was big MONEY ON THE LINE
I can't walk so I guess I'm gonna stay at home
They can have my legs just leave my head alone
I was in the kitchen
The year was in the fall
A friend of mine had told me that theRE WERE NO POINT IN MOPIN'
No there were no point at all
There was big fire in the hall yeah
There weren't no points at all
I can't walk so I guess I'm gonna stay at home
They can have my legs just leave my head alone
And I can't talk so I guess I got nothin' to say
I'll keep my eyes just take these tears away
Lock stOck AnD barrel all the dogs were going FERAL and the car ran like a broken perculator
His liver had gone hard and he wouldn't mow the yard
There was big MONEY ON THE LINE
And I heard that his brother was a viking
He liked to sOLVE a problem with a gun
If you want to know the facts you gotta teach 'em how to act
And I hate cough syrup don't you
I'd rather be a sailor than a fighter
I'd like to sail a ship into the sun
If you wanna know the truth you gotta dig up Johnny BooTH
And I hate cough syrup don't you
I know that your mother is a MARTYR
I heard she's got connections with the mob
If you wanna learn the fight you gotta drink up all the light
And I hate cough syrup don't you
I'd rather be a matchstick than a lighter
I LIKE TO SEE THE WOOD CURL UP AND BURN
If you wanna touch the sky you must be prepared to die
And I hate cough syrup don't you
I hate cough syrup and I hate the FOOD in europe.
And I hate cough syrup it's TRUE
You wanna know the truth you gotta dig up Johnny BooTH
And I hate cough syrup don't you
I hate cough syrup it's TRUE

"Something's wrong, but I don't know what
Wondering how, with all the things I've got
Life is good, but the pain don't stop
'Cause I'm holding on, so I give it up
Cheer up, cheer up, put a smile on your face
Wake up, wake up, take me out of this place
Rise up, rise up, we are the human race
Cheer up, cheer up, put a smile on your face

So if you really go the whole way and see how you feel at the prospect of vanishing forever. Have all your efforts, and all your achievements, and all your attainments turning into dust and nothingness. What is the feeling? What happens to you?
It's a curious thing, that in the world’s poetry, this is a very common theme. “The earthly hope men set their hearts upon turns ashes, or it prospers, and a non- like snow upon the deserts dusty face lighting a little hour or two and is gone”

Something's wrong, but I don't know what
Wondering how, with all the things I've got
Life is good, but the pain don't stop
'Cause I'm holding on, so I give it up
Something's wrong, but I don't know what
Wondering how, with all the things I've got
Life is good, but the pain don't stop
'Cause I'm holding on, so I give it up

So in this way, by seeing that nothingness is the fundamental reality, and you see it's your reality. Then how can anything contaminate you? All the idea of you being scared, and put out and worried, and so on, this is nothing, it's a dream. Because you're really nothing.
So cheer up

Cheer up, cheer up, put a smile on your face
Wake up, wake up, take me out of this place
Rise up, rise up, we are the human race
Cheer up, cheer up, put a smile on your face
la de da la de da la la la
la de da la de da la la la
la de da la de da la la la
la de da la de da la la la

All the sun and the stars and the mountains, and rivers, and the good men and bad men, and the animals, and the insects, and the whole bit. All are contained in void. So out of this void comes everything and you are it. What else could you be?
If somebody is going to argue that the basic reality is nothingness. Where does all this come from?
Obviously from nothingness."

Something - Azedia
Reminds me of Carl Sagan

~you're really nothing...so cheer up~
 
"HappyLife, with the machines
Scattered around the room
Look what they made, they made it for me
Happy Technology

Outside, the lions roam
Feeding on remains
We'll never leave, look at us now
So in love with the way we are

Here

The World That The Children Made
The World That the Children Made
Here
The World That The Children Made
Here
The World That The Children Made

Every night, they rock us to sleep
Digital family
Is it real, or is it a dream?
Can you believe in machines?

Outside, the beating sun
Can you hear the screams?
We'll never leave, look at us now
So in love with the way we are

Here

The World That The Children Made
The World That the Children Made
Here
The World That The Children Made
Here
The World That The Children Made

Here
The World That The Children Made
Here
The World That The Children Made"
 
So, is that what you call a getaway?
Well tell me what you got away with.
Cause I've seen more spine in jellyfish.
I've seen more guts in eleven-year-old kids.
Have another drink and drive yourself home.
I hope there's ice on all the roads.
And you can think of me when you forget your seatbelt,
and again when your head goes through the windshield.​
 
"There's a man who's been out sailing
In a decade full of dreams
And he takes her to a schooner
And he treats her like a queen
Bearing beads from California
With their amber stones and green

He has called her from the harbor
He has kissed her with his freedom
He has heard her off to starboard
In the breaking and the breathing
Of the water weeds
While she was busy being free

There's a man who's climbed a mountain
And he's calling out her name
And he hopes her heart can hear
Three thousand miles, he calls again
He can think her there beside him
He can miss her just the same

He has missed her in the forest
While he showed her all the flowers
And the branches sang the chorus
As he climbed the scaly towers
Of a forest tree
While she was somewhere being free

There's a man who's sent a letter
And he's waiting for reply
He has asked her of her travels
Since the day they said, "Goodbye"
He writes, "Wish you were beside me
We can make it if we try"

He has seen her at the office
With her name on all his papers
Through the sharing of the profits
He will find it hard to shake her
From his memory
And she's so busy being free

There's a lady in the city
And she thinks she loves them all
There's the one who's thinking of her
There's the one who sometimes calls
There's the one who writes her letters
With his facts and figures scrawl

She has brought them to her senses
They have laughed inside her laughter
Now she rallies her defenses
For she fears that one will ask her
For eternity
And she's so busy being free

There's a man who sends her medals
He is bleeding from the war
There's a jouster and a jester and a man who owns a store
There's a drummer and a dreamer
And you know there may be more

She will love them when she sees them
They will lose her if they follow
And she only means to please them
And her heart is full and hollow
Like a cactus tree
While she's so busy being free
Like a cactus tree being free"
 
So, so you think you can tell
Heaven from Hell,
blue skies from pain.
...
Did they get you to trade your heroes for ghosts?
Hot ashes for trees? Hot air for a cool breeze?
...
Did you exchange a walk on part in the war
for a lead role in a cage?
...
We're just two lost souls
swimming in a fish bowl,
year after year.
 
Make love with chaos, once in a lifetime...
I've seen the son of the man
He came to save the ones who were lost
Fathers shall not be condemned to death for the sons
Neither shall sons for their fathers
And everyone shall die for his own sin.

Holy me, blessed be
Arisen in the ASA glory
ASA, Sahasrar shall abolish the man in me
Black Death, nonetheless...

Black Death, nonetheless
Black Death for me
For my disease is carrying all the sins of humanity
For my death shall be the negation of your miserable existence
I was talking with Lucipher yesterday
He said he loved you, monkeys

He's the only one who cares about you, masses
I don't care, don't give a good goddamn
May you all die, bunch of pigs
Wish I was dead and crucified too

Stigmatized by your weak, ignorant moral
My body's raped and desecrated by your innoncent newborn sons
Anus-Dei
God, their flesh tastes so good

Flagrance of the Apokalypse
Lucipher was born a long time after me
And you love to gently caress his perfect hair
What a beautiful child you have, Madame

Ah, comme je peux hair tous ces miserables assemblages de chair
Ces relations faibles et repugnantes
Mais comment ne pas vomir sur ces corps abjects
Ces tripes fumantes enlacees ?
Ah, si seulement je pouvais broyer toute cette viande pourrie
Dechiqueter ces putains d'esprits
Expulser leurs fluides, leurs ames, toute cette atroce puanteur
Ah comme je peux hair celui qui a ose les creer
Je lui ferais bouffer toutes ces creatures
Jusqu'a ce qu'il en creve
Et qu'enfin je retrouve la sphere divine
Vierge et immaculee

Car Dieu m'a dit... toute vie doit cesser...

the french part roughly translates to...

Ah, as I can these miserable flesh hair assemblies
These low and repugnant relationships
But how not to throw these vile body
These steaming guts entwined?
Ah, if only I could crush all that rotten meat
Chipping these spirits whores
Expel their fluids, their souls, all this horrible stench
Ah, how I can hair one who dares to create them
I would do him eat these creatures
Until it creve in
And finally I found the divine sphere
Virgin and immaculate

Because God told me ... every life must end ...

Give me back my broken night
my mirrored room, my secret life
it's lonely here,
there's no one left to torture
Give me absolute control
over every living soul
And lie beside me, baby,
that's an order!
Give me crack and anal sex
Take the only tree that's left
and stuff it up the hole
in your culture
Give me back the Berlin wall
give me Stalin and St Paul
I've seen the future, brother:
it is murder.

Leonard Cohen, The Future
 
Two ravens in the old oak tree
And one for you and one for me
And bluebells in the late December
I see signs now all the time

The last time we slept together
There was something that was not there
You never wanted to alarm me
But Im the one thats drowning now

I can sleep forever these days
'Cause in my dreams I see you again
But this time fleshed out fuller faced
In your confirmation dress

It was so like you to visit me
To let me know you were okay
It was so like you to visit me
You always worried about someone else

At your funeral I was so upset
So, so upset
In your life you were larger than this
Statue statuesque

Bloc Party - Signs



... I'm not doing well guys
 
"staying in my play pretend..."

"I am on a lonely road and I am traveling, traveling, traveling
Lookin' for something, what can it be?
Oh, I hate you some, I hate you some
I love you some
Ohh, I love you when I forget about me
I wanna be strong, I wanna laugh along
Wanna belong to the living
Alive, alive, wanna get up and jive
Wreck my stockings in some juke box dive
Do you wanna, do you wanna, do you wanna dance with me, baby?
Do you wanna take a chance?
On maybe finding some sweet romance with me, baby
Well, come on

All I really, really want our love to do
Is to bring out the best in me and in you too
All I really, really want our love to do
Is to bring out the best in me and in you
I wanna talk to you, wanna shampoo you
An' renew you again and again
Applause, applause, life is our cause
When I think of your kisses my mind see saws
Do you see, do you see, do you see how you hurt me baby?
So I hurt you too
Then we both get so blue

I am on a lonely road and I am traveling
Lookin' for the key to set me free
Oh, the jealousy, the greed is the unraveling
I tell you it's the unraveling
It undoes all the joy that could be
An' I just wanna have fun, I wanna shine like the sun
Wanna be the one you want to see
I wanna knit you a sweater
An' write you a love letter
I wanna make you feel better
I wanna make you feel
Hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm
Wanna make you feel
Wanna make you feel"

"Come away with me in the night
Come away with me
And I will write you a song

Come away with me on a bus
Come away where they can't tempt us
With their lies

And I want to walk with you
On a cloudy day
In fields where the yellow grass grows knee-high
So won't you try to come?

Come away with me and we'll kiss
On a mountaintop
Come away with me
And I'll never stop loving you

And I want to wake up with the rain
Falling on a tin roof
While I'm safe there in your arms
So all I ask is for you
To come away with me in the night
Come away with me"

"The finest silver needle
Shouldn't ever slide between
When lovers stand as parting friends
Gonna put myself on a leaving train
And I won't come back again

I could wait 'til morning
If it don't come down today
A dime says I won't be satisfied
Gonna put myself on a leaving train
And I won't come back again

The words that go unspoken
On the color of the sun
And the coolin' air of the evening shade
And the breathless hours on the sleeping plane
And the last taillight on a leaving train
And I won't come back again
And I won't come back again"

Did you ever look, did you ever see that one person, and the subtle way that they do these things and it hurts so much, so much like choking down the embers of a great blaze.
