Lyrics that appeal to you today v. 14

one more by QOTSA from me :)
Mexicola - QOTSA
Setting sun deals hands of gold
There's velvet eyes in Mexico
Just a fall away
And all she said was true
Speak in tongues, speak in lies
Drooling livers, born to die
It's a wonder that those guns don't point at you
[chorus:]
Keep sayin, go on, keep sayin, go on, keep sayin, you will live forever
Point and shoot, I know just what you mean
In a world that's full of shit and gasoline, baby
One dog's dead one's on the phone
Just leave a lung or leave it alone
It's that same on song again
I hate it cause it's true
[repeat chorus]
 
i come home and wonder,
where did it go wrong. and i realize, it was me and my mind.

Vertcal Horizon -Best I Ever Had (Grey Sky Morning)
So you sailed away
Into a grey sky morning
Now I'm here to stay
Love can be so boring
Nothing's quite the same now
I just say your name now
But it's not so bad
You're only the best I ever had
You don't want me back
You're just the best I ever had
So you stole my world
Now I'm just a phony
Remembering the girl
Leaves me down and lonely
Send it in a letter
Make yourself feel better
But it's not so bad
You're only the best I ever had
You don't need me back
You're just the best I ever had
And it may take some time to
Patch me up inside
But I can't take it so I
Run away and hide
And I may find in time that
You were always right
You're always right
 
I don't know how many times I listened to this this weekend. And "Grey Sky Morning" is an awesome song, strange.
Depeche Mode :: Only When I Lose Myself
It's only when I lose myself in someone else
That I find myself
I find myself
It's only when I lose myself in someone else
That I find myself
I find myself
Something beautiful is happening inside for me
Something sensual, it's full of fire and mystery
I feel hypnotized, I feel paralyzed
I have found heaven
There's a thousand reasons
Why I shouldn't spent my time with you
For every reason not to be here I can think of two
Keep me hanging on
Feeling nothing's wrong
Inside your heaven
It's only when I lose myself in someone else
That I find myself
I find myself
It's only when I lose myself in someone else
That I find myself
I find myself
I can feel the emptiness inside me fade & disappear
There's a feeling of content that now you are here
I feel satisfied
I belong inside
Your velvet heaven
Did I need to sell my soul
For pleasure like this
Did I have to lose control
To treasure your kiss
Did I need to place my heart
In the palm of your hand
Before I could even start
To understand
It's only when I lose myself in someone else
That I find myself
I find myself

Here's a couple from Fiona Apple, both consistent with my guilty conscience and melancholy mood.
Get Gone
How many times do I have to say
To get away, get gone
Flip your shit past another lass's
Humble dwelling
You got your game, made your shot
And you got away
With a lot, but I'm not turned-on
So put away that meat you're selling
'Cause I do know what's good for me
And I've done what I could for you
But you're not benefiting, and yet I'm sitting
Singing again, sing, sing again
How can I deal with this, if he won't get with this
Am I gonna heal from this, he won't admit to it
Nothing to figure out, I got to get him out
It's time the truth was out that he don't give a shit about me
'Cause I do know what's good for me
And I've done what I could for you
But you're not benefiting, and yet I'm sitting
Singing again, sing, sing again
How can I deal with this, if he won't get with this
Am I gonna heal from this, he won't admit to it
Nothing to figure out, I got to get him out
It's time the truth was out that he don't give a shit about me
How many times can it escalate
'Till it elevates to a place I can't breathe?
And I must decide, if you must deride
That I'm much obliged to up and go
I'll idealize, then realize
That it's no sacrifice, because the price is paid
And there's nothing left to grieve
Fuckin go
'Cause I've done what I could for you
And I do know what's good for me
And I'm not benefiting
Instead I'm sitting singing again, singing again
Singing again, sing, sing, sing again
How can I deal with this, if he won't get with this
Am I gonna heal from this, he won't admit to it
Nothing to figure out, I got to get him out
It's time the truth was out that he don't give a shit about me
How can I deal with this, if he won't get with this
Am I gonna heal from this, he won't admit to it
Nothing to figure out, I got to get him out
It's time the truth was out that he don't give a shit about me
Criminal
I've been a bad bad girl
I've been careless with a delicate man
And it's a sad sad world
When a girl will break a boy
Just because she can
Don't you tell me to deny it
I've done wrong and I want to
Suffer for my sins
I've come to you 'cause I need
Guidance to be true
And I just don't know where I can begin
What I need is a good defense
'Cause I'm feelin' like a criminal
And I need to be redeemed
To the one I've sinned against
Because he's all I ever knew of love
Heaven help me for the way I am
Save me from these evil deeds
Before I get them done
I know tomorrow brings the consequence
At hand
But I keep livin' this day like
The next will never come
Oh help me but don't tell me
To deny it
I've got to cleanse myself
Of all these lies till I'm good
Enough for him
I've got a lot to lose and I'm
Bettin' high
So I'm beggin' you
before it ends just tell me where to begin
What I need is a good defense
'Cause I'm feelin' like a criminal
And I need to be redeemed
To the one I've sinned against
Because he's all I ever knew of love
Let me know the way
Before there's hell to pay
Give me room to lay the law and let me go
I've got to make a play
To make my lover stay
So what would an angel say
The devil wants to know
What I need is a good defense
'Cause I'm feelin' like a criminal
And I need to redeemed
To the one I've sinned against
Because he's all I ever knew of love
What I need is a good defense
'Cause I'm feelin' like a criminal
And I need to redeemed
To the one I've sinned against
Because he's all I ever knew of love
 
:: BT - Lullaby for Gaia featuring Jan Johnston ::
If it's in space and all is lost
A million shattered pieces
Then let it be
I'll tell you tales you won't believe
I'll tell you anyway
I'll be released
I'll be released
Blissful bubbles
Let me sleep
Rock me gently
Don't let me think
Blissful bubbles
Let me sleep
Rock me gently
Don't let me think
Too deep
Too deep
Too deep
Don't listen to the hearts of the world
The answer lies within
You know the truth
You know the truth
An instrument you can become
Play real loud for me/you
Your future's just begun
Your future's just begun
Blissful bubbles
Let me sleep
Rock me gently
Don't let me think
Blissful bubbles
Just let me sleep
Rock me gently
Don't let me think
Too deep
Too deep
I'll tell you tales you won't believe
I'll tell you anyway
I'll be released
Don't listen to the hearts of the world
Answer lies within
You know the truth
You know the truth
Blissful bubbles
Let me sleep
Rock me gently
Don't let me think

sunscreem - perfect motion
We've got, we've got
We've got/we want
We've got, we've got perfect motion
We've got/we want, we want/we've got
Because we've got perfect motion
We've got/we want chaos
Because
We want/we got perfect motion
We've got/we want the lot
We'll knock
We'll knock until the doors break open
If rhythm's a drug, I'm hooked on you
So show me every move
We've got perfect motion
You're pulling me up into the blue
I'm drowning in your love
We've got perfect motion
Wake up -- we've got/we want chaos
Wake up -- we've got perfect motion
Wake up -- we've got to stop the rot
Wake up -- we want evolution
Some have/some not
We want/we've got
Because we go round or over
Wake up, wake up, they've lost the plot
We'll knock until the walls come crashing down
If rhythm's a drug, I'm hooked on you
So show me every move
We've got perfect motion
You're pulling me up into the blue
I'm drowning in your love
We've got perfect motion
(Drowning in your love...)
If rhythm's a drug, I'm hooked on you
So show me every move
We've got perfect motion
You're pulling me up into the blue
I'm drowning in your love
We've got perfect motion
 
Underworld - Two Months Off
There was a little drawing of a heart next to that,
followed by an exclaimation mark.
The back of his was covered in stuff... stuff like:
Brandon is not a very nice guy, but Alex is sooo nice.
And that had the exclaimation thing too.
It was just silly crap that hit the spot. And he let himself be drawn in.
you bring light in...
to a dark place
walking in light
glowing walking in light
gold ring around you
the hues of you
the golden sunlight of you
you bring light in...
cool wind following
following after you
rising for you
your skin beautiful
everything comes natural
fantastic fan
rocking rocking floating
 
Sloan - Your dreams have come true
Your dreams have come true
Now everything's up to you
You can't change what you lose
But you can turn into someone new
You can't see
But believe that
The mess you make
The toll it takes
It's worth it
Your dreams come true
It's time to let heal
The damage that you can feel
That sense of hope you steal
Can turn into something real
You can't see
But believe that
The mess you make
The toll it takes
It's worth it
Your dreams come true
Your dreams have come true
Your dreams have come true
Turned into something new
Sloan - Coax Me
It all seemed to happen so fast
Will you ever believe the way he passed away
I saw his widow speak on her fortune
She was feelin' pretty apathetic
Coax me, cajole me
Coax me, cajole me
If I drink concentrated OJ
Can I think Consolidated's okay?
It's not the band I hate, it's their fans
Three cans of water perverts me
Coax me, cajole me
Coax me, cajole me
Coax me, cajole me
And after he died
By rights she'd have cried
I gave mine away
I gave mine away
I saw a widow's peak on her forehead
It was full of lines and sinkers
Coax me, cajole me
Coax me, cajole me
Coax me, cajole me
 
Now you keep calling me
On the telephone
Telling me you're all alone
Well that's so sad
And you keep leavin'
Notes stuck on my door
Guess you're hungry for some more
Girl that's too bad
'Cause I ain't that lonely yet
No I ain't that lonely yet
After what you put me through
I ain't that lonely yet
Now once there was this
Spider in my bed
I got caught up in her web
Of love and lies
She spun her chains
Around my heart and soul
Never to let go
But I survived
'Cause I ain't that lonely yet
No I ain't that lonely yet
After what you put me through
I ain't that lonely yet
There's nothing left
That you can do
To try and bring me 'round
'Cause everything you do
Just brings me down
'Cause I ain't that lonely yet
No I ain't that lonely yet
After what you put me through
I ain't that lonely yet
Hey I ain't that lonely yet
No I ain't that lonely yet
After what you put me through
I ain't that lonely yet
Dwight Yoakam - I Ain't That Lonely Yet
 
Because I think you're mad at me.
Again.
But don't read too deep into it. I just like the song at the moment and few key lines.
Heather Nova :: I'm Alive
Your hands were covered in paint
The pillow smothered my cry
You were half charmer half snake
I lived in dreamtime
But I'm alive
I survived you
And the bitter taste
The years I wasted
All the hate is gone
'Cause I'm alive
Some nights I'd sleep in the car
Just to escape you
You drove devotion too far
No one could save you
But I'm alive
I survived you
And the bitter taste
The years I wasted
All the hate is gone
'Cause I'm alive
I still have visions of you
I still have nights to get through
And when the trust isn't true
I have these visions of you
I have these visions of you
And I'm alive
I survived you
And the bitter taste
The years I wasted
All the hate is gone
'Cause I'm alive
I'm alive
I'm alive
Ride on and fade away
I'm alive
There's nothing more to say
I'm alive
Ride on and fade away
I'm alive
There's nothing more to say
I'm alive
Ride on and fade away
And the bitter taste
The years I wasted
All the hate is gone
==============================
And from another song on the same album, "I'm The Girl"
And I'm a siren
I'll wreck you on my shores
And I'm godiva
I'll call you back for more
 
I CANNOT READ YOUR MIND.
The Tragically Hip - Blow At High Dough
they shot a movie once, in my hometown everybody was in it, from miles around out at the speedway, some kinda elvis thing

like his rhythm never likes the stops throes of passion, throes of passion when something just threw him off
sometimes the faster it gets the less you need to know but you gotta remember, the smarter it gets the further it's gonna go
when you blow at high dough when you blow at high dough
whoa baby i feel fine i'm pretty sure it's genuine it makes no sense, no it makes no sense but i'll take it free any time whoever
fits her usually gets her it was the strangest thing how'd she move so fast, move so fast into that wedding ring

can get behind anything
sometimes the faster it gets the less you need to know but you gotta remember, the smarter it gets the further it's gonna go
when you blow at high dough when you blow at high dough
out at the speedway, same elvis thing

BLIND MELON "Galaxie"
Is this the place that i want to be
Is it you who i want to see
Holding on, Hold it high, show me everything
And you're leaving me me
Yeah you're leaving me
You're leaving me with hated identity
But i just keep on a comin' here and standing in this place
And I'm never really sure if you'll take
What I'm saying the right way
But i'm never apalled or afraid verbal pocket play

Because the Cadillac that's sittin' in the back
It isn't me
Oh, no, no, no it isn't me

That I don't do because of you
And I'll take a left then I'll second guess into a total mess
And you leaving me

You're leaving me with hated identity
But i just keep on a comin' here and standing in this place
And I'm never really sure if you'll take
What I'm saying the right way
But i'm never apalled or afraid verbal pocket play
Is as discreet as I can muster up to be
Because the Cadillac that's sittin' in the back
It isn't me
Oh, no, no, no it isn't me
I'm more at home in my galaxie
I'm more at home in my galaxie
 
Thanks to jeff.
Massive Attack - Antistar
Can you hear my words please?
Can you make it (love?)
And kill the pain like cortizone
(You drowned me in tennesee)
(Always special chromosomes?)
Yeah, more sweet like (horses)
Yeah more sweet like (horses)
(Her tears don't .. ...)
I'll turn the stone, i'll find you there
Into reflected light i stare
You blind me with flash bulbs
And puzzle me with syllables
(Is back to sleep)
(The air more sweet like her ...)
(The tears don't find you?)
My head's between my knees again
Got a needle set to zero
And you can shoot my (her gaze?)
(Don't spare me with tea towels)
(The air more sweet like her ...)
(The tears don't find you?)
Sweet...
Sweet...
Flux with me
(grey)
In bloodstains
 
relevant to my daily travels
Rainbow Butt Monkeys - Circles
You helped him, you laid by his side when he died
He held in his breath and you broke down and cried
You stood there, confused, you couldn't believe
You're helpless, and realize, it's better you leave
Now you're, walking around in your circles
Walking around in your circles, yeah
Walking around in your circles, circles
Walking around in your circles
Not stronger, you're gripping onto the past
Recalling what happened, happened too fast
His image is burning into your mind
You know you will never leave this behind
Now you're, walking around in your circles
Walking around in your circles, yeah
Walking around in your circles, circles
Walking around in your circles
