Lyrics that appeal to you today v 10.0

Sorry for self-indulgently posting my own lyrics, but I mixed this down last night and I can't stop listening to it...I get dangerously obsessed with this song when I hear it...
Sick Suspended - Spinkle
It makes me sick to think how much I like the pain now
Years of waiting draining lust disgust and how you came now
Deriving faith and driving clean into the brain now
Cutting cords and costs seduced to seem the same now
Spun and dissolved in sound
Sick suspended and sinking down
Drilled and drugged to breathe despite uncertain pressure
Gagged and choked destroyed consumed within the pleasure
Ached and bound inert and certain to go down now
Pleased to guarantee your voice won't be around now
I'll shake till I see you again
Your touch is a bullet to the back of the brain stem
Spun and dissolved in sound
Sick suspended and sinking down
Your touch is a bullet to the back of the brain stem
Spun and dissolved in sound
Sick suspended and sinking down
Your touch is a bullet to the back of the brain stem.

"I will light the match this morning
So I won't be alone
And watch as she lies silent
But soon light will be gone
I will stand, arms outstretched
and pretend I'm free to roam
I will make my way through
one more day in hell
"How much difference
does it make?
"I will hold the candle
till it burns up my arm
And I'll keep taking punches
until their will grows tired
I will stare the sun down
until my eyes go blind
And I won't change direction
and I won't change my mind
"How much difference
does it make?
"I'll swallow poison
until I grow immune
I will scream my lungs out
til it fills this room
"How much difference
does it make?"
'Indifference' Pearl Jam

"where i wanna be"
I just left my baby girl a message, said I won't be coming home
I'd rather be alone
She doesn't fully understand me
Cause I'd rather leave than to cheat
If she gives me some time
I could be the man she needs
But there's a lot of lust inside me
And we've been together since our teenage years
I really don't mean to hurt her
But I need some time to be alone
(chorus)
But when you love someone
You just don't treat them bad
Oh how, I feel so sad
Now that I wanna leave
She's crying her heart to me
How could you let this be
I just need time to see
Where I wanna be
Where I wanna be
Never did I imagine that you would play a major part
In decision that's so hard
Do I leave? Do I stay? Do I go?
Think about my life and what matters to me the most
Girl, the love that we share is real
But in time your heart will heal
I'm not saying I'm gone but I
Have to find what life is like without you
 
Wish You Were Here - Incubus
I dig my toes into the sand.
The ocean looks like a thousand diamonds strewn across a blue blanket.
I lean against the wind, pretend that i am weightless and in this moment i am happy.
[Chorus:]
I wish you were here
I wish you were here
I wish you were here
I wish you were here.

I lay my head onto the sand.
The sky resembles a backlit canopy with holes punched in it.
I'm counting ufo's.
I signal them with my lighter
and in this moment i am happy, happy.

[Chorus]
The world's a roller coaster and I am not strapped in.
Maybe I should hold with care,but my hands are busy in the air.
 
Bouncing Around The Room - Phish
The woman was a dream I had
Though rather hard to keep
for when my eyes were watching hers
They closed,
And I was still asleep.
For when my hand was holding hers
She whispered words and I awoke
And faintly bouncing around the room
The echo of whomever spoke
I awoke and faintly bouncing round the room
the echo of whomever spoke
The place I saw was far beneath
The surface of the sea
My sight was poor
But I was sure
The sirens sang their songs for me
They dance above me as I sink
I see them through a crystal haze
And hear their sweet sounds bouncing round
the never ending coral maze
Then before and now once more I'm bouncing around the room
That time then and once again I'm bouncing around the room,
the echo of whomever spoke.
 
Badly Drawn Boy - Everybody's Stalking
Been feeling high
Then feeling low
Strap your hands across my engines
I'm not a broke so please don't bend me
Your like neon sign
Just burn so bright
Penetrates like an infection
Gives me feeling I can't mention

Maybe all I need
You need to
Don't wait for me
I'll wait for you
Gonna follow you around
Gonna wear you down
Don't want to alienate you
As long as it might take you
Things come in ones
And double up to twos
Don't want to rain on your prossession
Only seeking you obsession
It might take a little time
Got all the time we need
I'm not here to try and fool you
Just trying to break down thru you

That's wasn't right
Then nothings wrong
I've gotta feeling it's alright
Gotta keep you in my sights
 
Vacant
by Tapeworm
Performed live by A Perfect Circle 1/31/00
Unreleased
Dead as dead can be
From what the doctor tells me
But I just can't believe him
prefer the optimistic one
I'm sure of your ability
to become my perfect enemy
Wake up to face me
rise up and show me
someday I'll say you're vacant
and maybe you're better off this way
Leaning over you here
cold and catatonic
I catch a brief reflection
of what you could and might have been
It's your right and your ability
... My perfect enemy

Wake up why can't you face me
rise up and show me
Someday I'll say you're vacant
and maybe you're better off this way
Maybe you're better off this way
People better off this way
You're better off this way
you're better off this
you're better off this
Maybe you're better off

Wake up, why can't you face me, come on and
Rise up, I tell you, show me (show me)
Some day I'll say you're vacant
and maybe you're better off this way
Go ahead and play dead
I know that you can hear this
Go ahead and play dead
I know that you can hear me
Why can't you turn and face me?
Why can't you turn and face me?
Why can't you turn and face me?
You fucking disappoint me
 
Car - Built to Spill
you get the car
I'll get the night off
You'll get the chance to take the world apart and figure out how it works
Don't let me know what you find out

I need a car
You need a guide
Who needs a map
If I don't die or worse I'm gonna need a nap
At best I'll be asleep when you get back

I wanna see it when you find out what comets, stars, and moons are all about
I wanna see their faces turn to backs of heads and slowly get smaller
I wanna see it now
I want specifics on the general idea
I wanna think what I should know
Want you to do me what to show
I wanna see movies of my dreams
I wanna see movies of my dreams
I wanna see movies of my dreams
I wanna see movies of my dreams
I wanna see it when you get stoned on a cloudy breezy desert afternoon
I wanna see it untame itself and break its owner
I wanna see it now
I wanna see it now
 
Live - Run To The Water.
Oh desert speak to my heart
Oh woman of the earth
Maker of children who weep for love
Maker of this birth
'til your deepest secrets are known to me
I will not be moved
I will not be moved
Don't try to find the answer
When there ain't no question here
Brother let your heart be wounded
And give no mercy to your fear"
Adam and Eve live down the street from me
Babylon is every town
Its as crazy as its ever been
Loves a stranger all around
In a moment we lost our minds here
And lay our spirit down
Today we lived a thousand years
All we have is now
Run to the water
And find me there
Burnt to the core but not broken
We'll cut through the madness
Of these streets below the moon
These streets below the moon
And I will never leave you
'till we can say,"this world was just a dream
We were sleepin' now we are awake
'til we can say
In a moment we lost our minds here
And dreamt the world was round
A million mile fall from grace
Thank god we missed the ground
Run to the water
And find me there
Burnt to the core but not broken
We'll cut through the madness
Of these streets below the moon
With a nuclear fire of love in our hearts
Yeah, I can see it now lord
Out beyond the breakin' of waves
And the tribulation
Its a place and a home of assended souls
Who swam out there in love!
Run to the water
And find me there
Burnt to the core but not broken
We'll cut through the madness
Of the streets below the moon
With a nuclear fire of love in our hearts
Rest easy baby, rest easy
And recognize it all as light and rainbows
Smashed to smithereens and be happy
Run to the water (and find me there)
Run to the water
This is quite concieveably the most beautiful non-electronica track that I have ever heard. I get tears in my eyes just listening to it in a happy frame of mind, its just such condensed emotion.

Avril Lavigne
"I Don't Give A Damn"
Everytime you go away
It actually kinda makes my day
Everytime you leave
You slam the door
You pick your words so carefully
You hate to think you're hurting me
You leave me laughing on
The floor
Cause I don't give it up, I don't give a damn
What you say about that
You know I don't give it up, I don't give a damn
What you say about that
You know I'm not gonna cry, about some stupid guy
A guy who thinks he's all that

I thought we were just hanging out
So why'd you kiss me on the mouth
You thought the way you taste
Would get me high
You went to all your friends to brag
Guys are always such a drag
Don't you know the reason that I kissed you was to
Say goodbye

Cause I don't give it up
I don't give a damn what you say about that
You know I don't give it up
I don't give a damn what you say about that
You know I'm not gonna cry about some stupid guy
A guy who thinks he's all that
Hanging hanging out, I am simply
Hanging hanging out, I am simply
Hanging so why'd you kiss me on the mouth?
Don't you know that I...
I don't give a damn about you
I won't give it up not for you
I don't give a damn about you
I won't give it up not for you
I'm not gonna cry about some stupid guy
A guy who thinks he's all that
I don't give it up
I don't give a damn what you say about that
You know I don't give it up
I don't give a damn what you say about that
 
Call me crazy but this is the only thing that has lifted my spirits all day.

Cold - No One
Well I can't ever really believe
No one was sent to get me
And I feel like I'm being erased
No one got left here

I'm all alone
No one was sent to get me
I'm all alone
No one got left here
But I'm fine
No one got left here
Well I'm fine
No one got left here
I can't breathe when I see
The pictures sent without you
I feel like i've been erased
No one got left here
I'm so sick of this terrible instinct
It's so hard now
Just to find you
So sick of the terrible instinct
I can only find you
 
Liz Phair - Flower
Everytime I see your face I get all wet between my legs
Everytime you pass me by, I heave a sigh of pain
(background lyrics sung throughout)
Everytime I see your face I think of things unpure, unchaste
I want to fuck you like a dog
I'll take you home and make you like it
Everything you ever wanted
Everything you ever thought of
Is everything I'll do to you
I'll fuck you and your minions, too
Your face reminds me of a flower
Kind of like you're underwater
Hair's too long and in your eyes
Your lips a perfect "suck me" size
You act like you're fourteen years old
Everything you say is so obnoxious, funny, true and mean
I want to be your blowjob queen
You're probably shy and introspective
That's not part of my objective
I just want your fresh, young jimmy
Jamming, slamming, ramming in me
Everytime I see your face I think of things unpure, unchaste
I want to fuck you like a dog
I'll take you home and make you like it
Everything you ever wanted
Everything you ever thought of
Is everything I'll do to you
I'll fuck you till your dick is blue
Everytime
 
All mine-Portishead
All the stars may shine bright,
All the clouds may be white,
But when you smile,
Oh how I feel so good,
That I can hardly wait
To hold you,
Enfold you,
Never enough,
Render your heart to me.
All mine,
You have to be

From that cloud, number nine,
Danger starts the sharp incline,
And such sad regrets,
Oh as those starry skies,
As they swiftly fall.
Make no mistake,
You shan't escape,
Tethered and tied,
There's nowhere to hide from me.
All mine,
You have to be
So don't resist,
We shall exist
Until the day,
Until the day, I die.
All mine,
You have to be
 
You're Real
(Rebecca Lynn Howard/Marty Dodson)
Your lips,soft as moonlight
Your touch,velvet and steel
Your eyes,sparkle like fireflies
And I love how you make me feel
Sometimes I can't believe you're real
My life,was like a garden
Where love,just would not grow
Then you,covered me in sunshine
Oh,I love how you make me feel
Sometimes I can't believe you're real
And you are my dream come true
I never thought I'd see the day I'd find someone like you
If I could I'd offer you the stars
But you deserve much more,so I'm giving you my heart
You must have come from heaven
To hold me in your wings
I pray this lasts forever
Cause I love how you make me feel
I still can't believe you're real
Your lips,soft as moonlight
Your touch,velvet and steel
Your eyes,sparkle like fireflies
And I love how you make me feel
I still can't believe you're real
You're real,baby
 
miss ani difranco-pulse
you crawled into my bed
like some sort of giant insect
and i found myself spellbound
at the sight of you there
cocooned in my room,
beautiful and grotesque and all the rest of that bug stuff
bluffing your way into my mouth
behind my teeth, reaching for my scars
that night we got kicked out of two bars
and laughed our way home
that night you leaned over
and threw up into your hair
and i thought
i would offer you my pulse
if i thought it would be useful
i would give you my breath
except
the problem with death is that you have
some hundred years and then they can
build building on your only bones
100 years and then your grave is not your own
we lie in out beds, and our graves
unable to save ourselves from
the quaint tragedies we invent
and then undo from the stupid circumstances
we slalomed through

and i realized that night that the hall light
which seemed so bright when you turned it on is nothing
compared to the dawn
which is nothing, compared to the light
which seeps from me while you're sleeping beautiful
and grotesque resting cocooned in my room
that night we got kicked out of two bars
and laughed our way home
and i held you there thinking
i would offer you my pulse
i would give you my breath
i would offer you my pulse
-------------
dilate
life used to be life-like
now it's more like show biz
i wake up in the night
and i don't know where the bathroom is
and i don't know what town i'm in
or what sky i am under
and i wake up in the darkness and i
don't have the will anymore to wonder
everyone has a skeleton
and a closet to keep it in
and you're mine
every song has a you
a you that the singer sings to
and you're it this time
baby, you're it this time

when i need to wipe my face
i use the back of my hand
and i like to take up space
just because i can
and i use my dress
to wipe up my drink
i care less and less
what people think
and you are so lame
you always disappoint me
it's kinda like our running joke
but it's really not funny
i just want you to live up to
the image of you i create

i see you and i'm so unsatisfied
i see you and i dilate
so i'll walk the plank and i'll jump with a smile
if i'm gonna go down
i'm gonna do it with style
and you won't see me surrender
you won't hear me confess
'cuz you've left me with nothing
but i've worked with less
and i learn every room long enough
to make it to the door
and then i hear it click shut behind me
and every key works differently
i forget every time
and the forgetting defines me
that's what defines me
when i say you sucked my brain out
the english translation
is i am in love with you
and it is no fun

but i don't use words like love
'cuz words like that don't matter
but don't look so offended
you know, you should be flattered
i wake up in the night
in some big hotel bed
my hands grope for the light
my hands grope for my head
the world is my oyster
the road is my home
and i know that i'm better
off alone
 
59 TIMES THE PAIN - Husker Du
the most intense of burning hells
blasting expectations into smithereens
never feeling normal, can't accept the truth resign myself to hating it, i hate it all
can't say that i don't like it
because the words won't come out right
all i feel is bitter, and it won't make it better
59 times the pain
i could never be like you
59 times the pain
i could never be like you
59 times the pain
never figured out eating 3 meals a day
when the people sit in their broken-down homes look at the photos from different eras gone by shows the changes, and i hate them all
don't want to live with myself
can't live with what goes on
all i see is the humiliation
i wish it was gone
 
sorry for posting twice so quickly, but this popped into my head and I almost started bawling...if you've never heard Jeremy Enigk's solo album (Return of the Frog Queen) and you like Sunny Day Real Estate, I *highly* recommend you pick it up *immediately*. It's a lot different from SDRE, but it's *beautiful*.
Explain - Jeremy Enigk
If i could move the weight of everything
blind the skies and change the tomic role
here i am and not the answers
only scars can show this time
i'm still wandering round your door
how can i explain dear
you've been gone for some time
but i still believe you'll be here oh no
again.
