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

[xxxyyy]

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

Et à l'aurore, armés d'une ardente patience, nous entrerons aux splendides villes.

dustin' off my copy of Rimbaud's A Season in Hell. Still as dope as ever.

 

[tokenname]

tell me again that my music taste sucks and i will punch you in the throat.

but..
i never said it ALL sucks.


you and i made a pact
only you could keep
and now i answer to you
in my sleep

a suicide invoice
in pen and ink
brings you to my bedside
in yellow, white, and pink

and when i dream
i keep my promises to you
i really do

suicide invoice
suicide dream

and when i dream
i keep my promises to you
i really do

a suicide invoice
yellow, white, and pink
brings you to my bedside
in pen and ink

and when i wake
i know all our dreams will come true
i really do

My Body Crumbles - Dry Cell

Finally recover and the mood is right
looking up into a neon sky
child in me takes over, guess it's been too long
since the last time that I tried to fly

Finally I find when I lose control
inside my body crumbles
it's like therapy for my broken soul
inside my body crumbles

All I need's a moment, just to get away
from the stressfulness of every day
Know if I don't question and I never doubt
everything is gonna be okay

finally I find when I lose control
inside my body crumbles
it's like therapy for my broken soul
inside my body crumbles

I don't know if I'll be alright
I don't know if I'll be alright
(Is it okay to be myself)
I don't know if I'll be alright
I don't know if I'll be alright
(why do we always have to fight)
I don't know if I'll be alright
now i know it's alright

finally I find when I lose control
inside my body crumbles
it's like therapy for my broken soul
inside my body

finally I find when I lose control
inside my body crumbles
it's like therapy for my broken soul
inside my body crumbles

you just have to rub it in don't you?
from here on out, i will make extra extra extra sure to send you music you will hate.

The Velvet Glove - Red Hot Chili Peppers

Close to my skin
Im falling in
Someone whos been

Sittin by the phone
Im left alone
In another zone

John says to live above hell and
My will is well

No one is waiting
For me to fail and
My will could sail, yeah

Its such a waste to be wasted
In the first place
I want to taste the taste of
Being face to face with common grace
To meditate on the warmest dream
And when I walk alone I listen
To our secret theme

Your solar eyes are like
Nothing I have ever seen
Somebody close
That can see right through
Ill take a fall and you know
That I'll do anything
I will for you

Sailin for the sun
Cause there is one
Knows where Im from
I care for you
I really do, I really do

Come closer now
So you can lie
Right by my side

Sittin alone in the sun
I wrote a letter to you
Gettin over myself, yeah

Your solar eyes are like
Nothing I have ever seen
Somebody close
That can see right through
Ill take a fall and you know
That I'll do anything
I will for you
Your solar eyes are like
Nothing I have ever seen
Somebody close
That was made for you
Ill take a fall and you know
That I'll do anything
I will for you

Close to my skin
Someone whos been
Im falling in

Disasters are
Just another star
Fallin in my yard

John says to live above hell
My will is well

Long to be with
Someone to tell
I love your smell

 

[PortalFloyd]

Help, I have done it again
I have been here many times before
Hurt myself again today
And the worst part is there's no one else to blame

Be my friend
Hold me, wrap me up
Unfold me
I am small and needy
Warm me up
And breathe me

Ouch I have lost myself again
Lost myself and I am nowhere to be found,
Yeah I think that I might break
I've lost myself again and I feel unsafe

Be my friend
Hold me, wrap me up
Unfold me
I am small and needy
Warm me up
And breathe me

Be my friend
Hold me, wrap me up
Unfold me
I am small and needy
Warm me up
And breathe me

Sia-Breathe Me

tango with lions/obituary


the way time clicks -
the way time clicks your life .. away

the way time takes -
the way time takes your life .. away

and i .. who's always been afraid of everything -
i see the tragedy .. of loss

 

[xxxyyy]

Hundred dollar demon in my pocket,
And a scrape in the hole
Digging up a bruise that darkens,
Calibrated to go

Down down down,
And your grip is slipping
Down down down,
And the page is ripping

Wasting the world away
At the bite of your touch
The wash of the passing days seeping out
Doesn't matter that much
Drowning out... no sound, pouring out upon the ground
Raining down... the drain

Down down down,
Morning shakes and you're fadin' away
Down, down, slowly down,
Metal stress and it's shearing away

Round and around and around to the ground,
And I'm stumbling, tripping
Down... jerk around
And the record's skipping...
Skipping, skipping, skipping
And the record's skipping

Poetry that's a part of me
The heart of me jocks
I rock beats to keep from artery clots

 

[tokenname]

gary numan/a prayer for the unborn

so i prayed...
but you weren't listening - making miracles?

so i begged...
but you were far away - saving souls perhaps?

so i screamed..
but she was very small - and you have worlds to mend.

so she died..
and you were glorious - but you were somewhere else.

if you are my shepherd -
then i'm lost and no one can find me.

if you are my savior -
then i'm dead and no one can help me.

if you are my glory -
then i'm sick and no one can cure me.

if you light my darkness -
then i'm blind and no one can see me.

if you are my father -
then love lies - abandoned and bleeding.

if you are my comfort -
then nightmares are real and deceiving.

if you are my answer -
then i must have asked the wrong question.

i'd spit on your heaven -
if i could find one to believe in.

 

[tokenname]

my sweet prince/placebo

never thought you'd make me perspire
never thought i'd do you the same
never thought i'd fill with desire
never thought i'd feel so ashamed

me and the dragon can chase all the pain away
so before i end my day remember
my sweet prince you are the one
my sweet prince
you are the one

never thought i'd have to retire
never thought i'd have to abstain
never thought all this could back fire
close up the hole in my vain

me and my valuable friend
can fix all the pain away
so before i end my day, remember
my sweet prince
you are the one


never thought i'd get any higher
never thought you'd fuck with my brain
never thought all this could expire
never thought you'd go break the chain

me and you baby
still flush all the pain away
so before i end my day, remember
my sweet prince
you are the one

 

[xxxyyy]

i can't remember fucking with your brain. also that is insipid and saccharine.
Another day, another knife in the back
It's happened so many times, I stopped tryin' to keep track
You're stuck stickin' it in, you're stuck stickin' it in
Take it up to the hilt to cover up your own fuckin' guilt

And when the shit goes down you're out of places to hide
No time to ask could the motherfucker really survive
Get a load of this fuck, he's the dead guy

It's just a natural [Incomprehensible] you never fuckin' possessed
You lost control of my life, you want control of the rest
You're always stickin' it in, you're always stickin' it in
You stuck it so many times, you let me tell you goodbye

But when the shit comes down you're out of places to hide
Time to ask if you're alive or just pretend that you died
Just remember this fuck, I'm the dead guy, I'm the dead guy

Dead guy
Dead guy
Dead guy


ministry - deadguy

and

when I crawl on you tonight
a likened mold of Marquis de Sade
will you hold me to his powers as I display his claim to fame
a villain to call your own
yes I guess that's what I'd be
the spectacle you keep beneath the big brass bed in which you sleep

when I call on you tonight
like a mistress with no shame
will you slide away the ring you wear so well and call my name
a widow to call my own
yes I guess that's what you'd be
a spectacle I held above all the handsome men who line these streets

willing to follow you down
willing to follow you down

as you plead with me to follow thee to where you lie amidst the leaves
I shall obey and drink the grin of lifelessness away that once swept me off my knees
oh I cannot choose but weep
beneath the heavy presence in her eyes
which to the last bended their light upon me

upon me
upon me
upon me

willing to follow you down
willing to follow you down
willing to follow you down
willing to follow you down


lowercase - willing to follow you down

see my dear, that is much more like it

 

[tokenname]

i can't remember fucking with your brain. also that is insipid and saccharine.

memories/lyrics seem to be equally subjective..
both of mine seem too weak for you, german.
and so onto the next..


Again it poured over me in waves.
When she left with them she said I must
Break free from the dark. I tried to tell her
Of their poison, she chose not to hear.
She was never seen again"

Sometimes when I'm alone I still feel you
Your breath on my neck, you're still with me
And I'm still dreaming neon black
I wait for you, to taste your unknown world
The clock spins to time that must mean nothing

Meet me in the dreamtime water, drown
Shifting shaping currents flow in memory
Swim through me
Meet me in the drowning pool of tears
And wash away my innocence and fear

Sometimes I wonder where you are, can you feel my tears?
I never knew what changed you
Did they paint your dreams in pale shades?
I wait for you, you know you cannot hide
Division from within invalidates suffering

Meet me in the dreamtime water, drown
Shifting shaping currents flow in memory
Swim through me
Meet me in the drowning pool of tears
And wash away my innocence

I am a child of light living in your mind
The pain, the unknowing washes away in time
Until then will you meet me whenever I call to you?

Meet me in the dreamtime water, drown
Shifting shaping currents flow in memory
Swim through me
Meet me in the drowning pool of tears
And wash away my innocence
Meet me in the dreamtime water, drown
Shifting shaping currents flow in memory
Swim through me
Meet me in the drowning pool of tears
And wash away my innocence
Meet me

My only cure won't you meet me?
In the drowning pool of fate the moon and the sun still wait
Won't you meet me?
suffering silently for our love, the jester has lost his dove

dreaming neon black/nevermore


you win/the lowercase lyrics are fucking amazing

 

[CoffeeDrinker]

I hate myself for lovin’ you and the weakness that it showed
You were just a painted face on a trip down Suicide Road
The stage was set, the lights went out all around the old hotel
I hate myself for lovin’ you and I’m glad the curtain fell

I hate that foolish game we played and the need that was expressed
And the mercy that you showed to me, who ever would have guessed?
I went out on Lower Broadway and I felt that place within
That hollow place where martyrs weep and angels play with sin

Heard your songs of freedom and man forever stripped
Acting out his folly while his back is being whipped
Like a slave in orbit, he’s beaten ’til he’s tame
All for a moment’s glory and it’s a dirty, rotten shame

There are those who worship loneliness, I’m not one of them
In this age of fiberglass I’m searching for a gem
The crystal ball up on the wall hasn’t shown me nothing yet
I’ve paid the price of solitude, but at least I’m out of debt

Can’t recall a useful thing you ever did for me
’Cept pat me on the back one time when I was on my knees
We stared into each other’s eyes ’til one of us would break
No use to apologize, what diff’rence would it make?

So sing your praise of progress and of the Doom Machine
The naked truth is still taboo whenever it can be seen
Lady Luck, who shines on me, will tell you where I’m at
I hate myself for lovin’ you, but I should get over that

 

[thujone]

Shadows slowly rotating
Generating a vista of heavenly night
Figures falling together at last
In relief, on the bare walls and doors

My delicious confusion
The solution; journey with no end in sight
Desecrated by angels and men
Bodies linger in the morning light

I live in fear
Of the things I desire
I should surrender
To the terrible wonderful world that lies... Before me

In this other dimension
I feel tension, surrounding my every move
You and I are together at last
We're enslaved in our own universe

And I count the years
Till the end of my days
And I’m looking back
On a life that’s so sweet, that it's only complete
With your face before me

I've never been the type to find
That anyone could make me lose my mind
This dark matter’s haunting me
Perhaps I’ll never find out why...

There's a secret I must know
I just have to know why...

(Chorus)[Carol]
I’ll search every day[I will search everywhere]
Every hour, minute, second[Mmm]
I have to find a way[I just wanna know why]
To the secret of this dark matter[I'll ask everyone]

I’ll ask everyone[Boy, girl and child]
Every boy, girl and child
I can’t rest until
I have the secret of this dark matter[Dark matter]

I just have to know why...
Why...

I'll search every day[I'll search everyday]
Every hour, minute, second[Yes I will]
I have to find a way
To the secret of this dark matter

I'll ask everyone[I just have to know why]
Every boy, girl and child[I have to find out why]
I can't rest until
I have the secret of this dark matter

[I'll never rest till it stops...]

 

[Droppersneck]

If pain was a color to paint on you,
Your heart would be the color blue.
Be a painting, hung up there til your body met your head.
Which were made of silver.

You are the one they call Jesus Christ.
Who didn't know no rock and roll.
Just a mission made of guns that they give boys in Vietnam
But they always told him

There's a madness in us all.
There's a madness in us all.

So who broke the rules?
Who broke the rules?
Who broke the rules? hey

They said
Every one of you will never try to lend a hand
When the police men don't understand.

Oh tell your boys, all you boys
Think you're so American.
Girls, all you girls
They're so American.

He may not be born of this land
But he was born of this world.
He was born of all the mothers
And the colors of our brothers
And the love that was started

You are the one they call Jesus Christ.
Hey may not know no rock and roll.
There may not be a heaven,
Or a place in which to send you,
But you know in the end

There's a madness in us all.
There's a madness in us all.
There's a madness in us all.
There's a madness in us all.

So who broke the rules?
Who broke the rules?
Who broke the rules? Hey

Say
Every one of you will never try to lend a hand
When the police men don't understand.

Boys, all you boys
Think you're so American.
Girls, all you girls
They're so American.

There's two eyes for every one of us
But somebody got there first and took them all.
There's two eyes for every one of us
But somebody got there first and took them all.

Man, oh man
Think you're so American
Man, oh man.
Yeah you're so American

Man, oh man
Think you're so American
Man, oh man.
Yeah you're so American

There's two eyes for every one of us
But somebody got there first and took them all

There's two eyes for every one of us
But somebody got there first and took them all

This one is for Bardo it is about american self hate.

 

[tokenname]

deep inside the shell
rankles the pain
knee-deep inside yourself,
wreck of the insane

you serve the shame


loss to fill
expose your will,
use the child

simple needs,
perversities,
abuse the pride

loss to fill,
i'll be your sin,
without name

simple needs,
perversities,
you serve the shame

wallow in the deeds,
unable to feel
too late to repent,

this mind must be sealed

you serve the shame

--serve the shame/drain sth

 

[Bardeaux]

This one is for Bardo it is about american self hate.

Too moderate for my taste though.

Measuring a summer's day,
I only find it slips away to grey,
The hours, they bring me pain.

Tangerine, Tangerine,
Living REFLECTIONS from a dream;
I was her love, she was my queen,
And now a thousand years between.

Thinking how it used to be,
Does she still remember times like these?
To think of us again?
And I do.

 

[CaseFace]

^^ I loved that.
