Lyrics that Appeal to you Today (v. 2)

Furnace, we have the EXACT same taste in music.
~thank you~
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
It has to be time to take you in my arms
And show you how I feel
It has to be here, it has to be now
Or this one won't be real
It has to be time to leave it all behind
What a perfect time for me to make you mine
I know I can make everything just perfect
I'm the only boy who can make you see
That you're the only girl in the world for me
I know I can make everything just perfect
I know I can make everything just perfect
Cause when I'm with you then everything's just perfect
You wouldn't have to take anything
Except me with you wherever you go
I know I can make everything just perfect
So throw away the weed that you don't need
Show me all the things that I've never seen
I know I can make everything just perfect
I know I can make everything just perfect
Cause when I'm with you then everything's just perfect
It's the perfect time to leave it all behind
And put your life in place
Because I can replace all the drugs you take
With the smile on my face
So it's yes if I can really trust you
And it's no if I can only lust you
I know I can make everything just perfect
You can do no wrong no matter what I say
I can only make everything just perfect
I know I can make everything just perfect
When I see you again
Just Perfect/All
 
Gratitude Walks - American Music Club
Why don't you be good for something
and draw down the shades
on a sun that sat up all night shivering
on a sun that sat up all night afraid
one that shines on the oasis that
leads a man to drink
drunk on the kind of applause
that gets louder the lower you sink
gratitude walks
gratitude walks
gratitude walks
on sixth street
well, they pull it from the air
and the throw it in the blue
and you're spinning under their wheels
trapped in your room
and you're jumpy
you don't want to see
you don't want to see them have their fun
slap her face if she should laugh
push him down if he should try and run
gratitude walks
gratitude walks
gratitude walks
on sixth street
take a number for your big lament
they sold the rules of dreamland
in cotton wool and cement
well, it's never what you want
it's just the kind of thing
that always happens here
and you watch the good old days pass you by
leaving your cupboards bare
gratitude walks
gratitude walks
gratitude walks
on sixth street...
 
Here's an unusual song, dedicated to an unusual person, that makes me feel kind of... unusual. ;)
32 Flavors
Ani DiFranco
squint your eyes and look closer
I'm not between you and your ambition
I am a poster girl with no poster
I am thirty-two flavors and then some
and I'm beyond your peripheral vision
so you might want to turn your head
cause someday you're going to get hungry
and eat most of the words you just said
both my parents taught me about good will
and I have done well by their names
just the kindness I've lavished on strangers
is more than I can explain
still there's many who've turned out their porch lights
just so I would think they were not home
and hid in the dark of their windows
til I'd passed and left them alone
and god help you if you are an ugly girl
course too pretty is also your doom
cause everyone harbors a secret hatred
for the prettiest girl in the room
and god help you if you are a pheonix
and you dare to rise up from the ash
a thousand eyes will smolder with jealousy
while you are just flying back
I'm not trying to give my life meaning
by demeaning you
and I would like to state for the record
I did everything that I could do
I'm not saying that I'm a saint
I just don't want to live that way
no, I will never be a saint
but I will always say
squint your eyes and look closer
I'm not between you and your ambition
I am a poster girl with no poster
I am thirty-two flavors and then some
And I'm beyond your peripheral vision
So you might want to turn your head
Cause someday you might find you're starving
and eating all of the words you said
 
Another Day-The Cure
when we look back at it all as i know we will..
you and me, wide eyed
i wonder...
will we really remember
how it feels to be this alive
and i know we have to go
i realize we only get to stay so long
always have to go back to real lives
where we belong
where we belong
where we belong
when we look back to all of this, and im sure we will
me and you, here and now
will we forget the way it really is
why it feels like this and how
and we always have to go i realize
we always haveto say goodbye
always have to go back to the real lives
but real lives are the reason why
we want to live another life
we want to feel another time
another time...
yeah another time
to feel another time...
when we look back at it all as i know we will..
you and me, wide eyed
i wonder...
will we really remember
how it feels to be this alive
and i know we have to go
i realize we only get to stay so long
always have to go back to real lives
but real lives are the reason why
for another dream
another day
for another world
another way
for another way...
one last time before its over
one last time before the end
one last time before its time to go again...
 
Past Future Perfect
In the corner stands a strawman
with a cocktail
in his right hand
firm handshakes
all around
as he slowly sips away
In the twilight
sits a reader
and the words they
grab and lead her
to another
world apart
as she slowly
slips away
You can drown me
in my sorrows
that can leave me
on the morrow
but the best part
is the last
let it slowly
fade away
Does it strike you
as an odd thing
how a man keeps remembering
where the future
meets the past
and then slowly
fades
slowly fades
slowly fades
away

The Hollow <--- To download, Make with the clickin'
-A Perfect Circle
Run desire run
Sexual being
Run him like a blade
To and through the heart
No conscience
One Motive
Cater to the hollow
Screaming feed me here
Fill me up again
Temporarily pacify this hungering
So grow
Libido throw
Dominoes of indiscretions down
Falling all around
In cycles
In circles
Constantly consuming
Conquer and devour
Cause it's time to bring the fire down
Bridle all this indiscretion
Long enough to edify
And permanently fill this hollow
Screaming feed me here
Fill me up again
Temporarily pacifying
Feed me here
Fill me up again
Temporarily pacifying
 
Thirty-three - Smashing Pumpkins
Speak to me in a language I can hear
Humour me before I have to go
Deep in thought I forgive everyone
As the cluttered streets greet me once again
I know I can't be late, supper's waiting on the table
Tomorrow's just an excuse away
So I pull my collar up and face the cold, on my own
The earth laughs beneath my heavy feet
At the blasphemy in my old jangly walk
Steeple guide me to my heart and home
The sun is out and up and down again
I know I'll make it, love can last forever
Graceful swans of never topple to the earth
And you can make it last, forever you
You can make it last, forever you
And for a moment I lose myself
Wrapped up in the pleasures of the world
I've journeyed here and there and back again
But in the same old haunts I still find my friends
Mysteries not ready to reveal
Sympathies I'm ready to return
I'll make the effort, love can last forever
Graceful swans of never topple to the earth
Tomorrow's just an excuse
And you can make it last, forever you
You can make it last, forever you
 
This song has always made me stop and notice how deeply we can breathe sometimes.
Cactus Tree
Joni Mitchell
There's a man who's been out sailing
In a decade full of dreams
And he takes her to his 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 her 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
Thru 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
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
 
Everything's so blurry
and everyone's so fake
and everybody's so empty
and everything is so messed up
pre-occupied without you
I cannot live at all
My whole world surrounds you
I stumble then I crawl
You could be my someone
you could be my sea
you know that i'll protect you
from all of the obscene
I wonder what your doing
imagine where you are
there's oceans in between us
but that's not very far
Can you take it all away
can you take it all away
when ya shoved it in my face
explain again to me
Can you take it all away
can you take it all away
when ya shoved it my face
Everyone is changing
there's noone left that's real
to make up your ending
and let me know just how you feel
cause I am lost without you
I cannot live at all
my whole world surrounds you
I stumble then I crawl
You could be my someone
you could be my sea
you know that i will save you
from all of the unclean
I wonder what your doing
I wonder where you are
There's oceans in between us
but that's not very far
[Chorus]
Nobody told me what you thought
nobody told me what to say
everyone showed you where to turn
told you where to runaway
nobody told you where to hide
nobody told you what to say
everyone showed you where to turn
showed you where to runaway
[Chorus]
Explain again to me
you take it all
you take it all away...
explain again to me
you take it all away
explain again to me
take it all away
explain again

I've wanted to post this song for about 6 months now. Finally, the perfect moment has arrived.
-------------------------------
Fearless - Saul Williams
I don't know whether to laugh or cry
and I don't know whether to live or die
I kept my love for her locked deep inside
it cuts like a knife
she's out of my life
out of my life, out of my hair
out of my mind, there's no love in there
I move on, move on
dear God, I wasn't breast fed
and most of my conversations with men seem to revolve around music
I'm no musician but the pain has been instrumental
my sense finally tune the instruments of - of - of
of being lonely, of being lost, of being loved, of being human
man I could use a metaphor but I can't get beyond this shit
I could use someone to talk to
but most of my conversations with men seem to revolve around music
I am a poet who composes what the world proses
and proses what the world composes
I am a poet who composes what the world proses
and proses what the world composes
damned indescion and cursed pride
I kept my love for her locked deep inside
and I don't know what to do
to get it through to you
get out of my life tonight
get out of my life
out of my life, out of my hair
out of my mind, 'cause no lovin' fair
I move on, move on
she had nothing but time on her hands
silver rings, turquoise stones and purple nails
I rub my thumb across her palm
a featherbed where slept a psalm
yay though I walked, I used to fly, and now we dance
I watch my toenails blacken and walk a deadened trance
'til she woke me with the knife edge of her glance
I have the scars to prove the clock strikes with her hands
and I don't know what to do
to get it through to you
and I don't know what to do
to get it through
out of my life, out of my hair
out of my mind, 'cause no lovin' fair
I move on, move on, I move on
 
death cab for cutie-company calls
i'll take the best of your bad moods and dress them up to make a better you, 'cause all the company calls amount to one paycheck. i'd squeeze a heart through my fingertip but i type too slow to make expressions stick. and it's like TV with a microchip.
set your sights to sink the partyline, 'cause it's so tired. set your sights! destroy this mock-shrine, 'cause it's so tired.
let's cut our losses at both ends and aim your car away from all our friends, leaving the dishes stacked in the sink.
i'd keep a distance 'cause the complications cloud it all, and mail a postcard sending grettings from the eastern bloc. synapse to synapse: possoibilities will thin or fade. your wedding figurines: i'd melt so i could drink them in.
Pink Floyd-Coming Back to Life
Where were you when I was burned and broken
While the days slipped by from my window watching
And where were you when I was hurt and I was helpless
Because the things you say and the things you do surround me
While you were hanging yourself on someone else's words
Dying to believe in what you heard
I was staring straight into the shining sun
Lost in thought and lost in time
While the seeds of life and the seeds of change were planted
Outside the rain fell dark and slow
While I pondered on this dangerous but irresistible pastime
I took a heavenly ride through our silence
I knew the moment had arrived
For killing the past and coming back to life
I took a heavenly ride through our silence
I knew the waiting had begun
And headed straight into the shining sun

Star slight - At the drive-in
sailing all alone, guided by starlight
nowhere is my home
inside of my mind
we've paid that shoeshine boy
whose buff has no smile
he spits on your tip-toes
and you keep hugging folklore
like it's out of style, out of focus
harum scarum
we promote this cover, discover
and you know your insides true
better than i do
 
So...while those pesky female vocals that dominate a lot of trance today can't even begin to touch the lyrics we usually post around here, I'm posting these anyway, for last night :)
The night I laid my eyes on you
Felt everything around me move
Got nervous when you looked my way
But you knew all the words to say
Then your love slowly moved right in
All this time all my love where you been
Me, amore dont you know
My love I want you so
Sugar you make my soul complete
Rapture tastes so sweet
Mesmerised in every way
Keep me in a state of daze
Your kisses make my skin feel weak
Always melting in your heat
Then I soar like a bird in the wind
Oh I glide as I'm flying through heaven
Me, amore dont you know
my love I want you so
Sugar you make my soul complete
Rapture tastes so sweet
Me, amore dont you know
my love I want you so
Sugar you make my soul complete
Rapture tastes so sweet
 
Stuck in a Moment You Can't Get Out of - U2
I'm not afraid of anything in this world
There's nothing you can throw at me that I haven't already heard
I'm just trying to find a decent melody
A song that I can sing in my own company
I never thought you were a fool
But darling, look at you
You gotta stand up straight, carry your own weight
These tears are going nowhere, baby
You've got to get yourself together
You've got stuck in a moment and now you can't get out of it
Don't say that later will be better now you're stuck in a moment
And you can't get out of it
I will not forsake, the colours that you bring
But the nights you filled with fireworks
They left you with nothing
I am still enchanted by the light you brought to me
I still listen through your ears, and through your eyes I can see
And you are such a fool
To worry like you do
I know it's tough, and you can never get enough
Of what you don't really need now... my oh my
You've got to get yourself together
You've got stuck in a moment and now you can't get out of it
Oh love look at you now
You've got yourself stuck in a moment and now you can't get out of it
I was unconscious, half asleep
The water is warm till you discover how deep...
I wasn't jumping... for me it was a fall
It's a long way down to nothing at all
You've got to get yourself together
You've got stuck in a moment and now you can't get out of it
Don't say that later will be better now
You're stuck in a moment and you can't get out of it
And if the night runs over
And if the day won't last
And if our way should falter
Along the stony pass
And if the night runs over
And if the day won't last
And if your way should falter
Along the stony pass
It's just a moment
This time will pass
 
Singing with Stase and Dags especially
"He wakes up in the morning
Does his teeth bite to eat and he's rolling
Never changes a thing
The week ends the week begins
She thinks, we look at each other
Wondering what the other is thinking
But we never say a thing
These crimes between us grow deeper
Goes to visit his mommy
She feeds him well his concerns
He forgets them
And remembers being small
Playing under the table and dreaming
Take these chances
Place them in a box until a quieter time
Lights down, you up and die
Driving in on this highway
All these cars and upon the sidewalk
People in every direction
No words exchanged
No time to exchange
And all the little ants are marching
Red and black antennas waving
They all do it the same
They all do it the same way
Candyman teasing the thoughts of a
Sweet tooth tortured by the weight loss
Programs cutting the corners
Loose end, loose end, cut, cut
On the fence, could not to offend
Cut, cut, cut, cut
Take these chances
Place them in a box until a quieter time
Lights down, you up and die"
Ants Marching-DMB

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
All my little plans and schemes
Lost like some forgotten dreams
Seems that all I really was doing
Was waiting for you
Just like little girls and boys
Playing with their little toys
Seems like all they really were doing
Was waiting for love
Don't need to be alone
No need to be alone
It's real love, it's real
Yes it's real love, it's real
From this moment on I know
Exactly where my life will go
Seems that all I really was doing
Was waiting for love
Don't need to be afraid
No need to be afraid
It's real love, it's real
Yes it's real love, it's real
Thought I'd been in love before
But in my heart, I wanted more
Seems like all I really was doing
Was waiting for you
Don't need to be alone
Don't need to be alone
It's real love, it's real
It's real love, it's real
Yes it's real love, it's real
It's real love, it's real
Yes it's real love, it's real
It's real love, it's real
Yes it's real love, it's real
It's real love, it's real
Real Love/The Beatles
 
We Only Come Out at Night
Smashing Pumpkins
We only come out at night
The days are much too bright
We only come out at night
And once again, you'll pretend to know me well, my friends
And once again, I'll pretend to know the way
Thru the empty space
Thru the secret places of the heart
We only come out at night
The days are mush too bright
We only come out at night
I walk alone, I walk alone to find the way home
I'm on my own, I'm on my own to see the ways
That I can't help the days, you will make it home o.k.
I know you can, and you can
We only come out at night, the days are much too bright
We only come out at night
And once again, you'll pretend to know that
There's an end, that there's an end to this begin
It will help you sleep at night
It will make it seem that right is always right
Alright?
We only come out at night
 
The Cure-Mint Car
The sun is up
i'm so happy i could scream
and there's nowhere else in the world i'd rather be
than here with you
it's perfect
it's all I ever wanted
Almost can't believe that it's for real
i really don't think it gets any better than this
vanilla smile
and a gorgeous strawberry kiss!
birds sing we swing
clouds shift by and everything is like a dream
It's everything I wished...
never guessed it got this good
wondered if it ever would
really didn't think it could

Well, we all want a sip of it
After it's made
But we don't want the lemons
We just want the lemonade!
To put in the work is
A waste of the day, now
We don't want the lemons
We just want the lemonade!
You can't always get
What you want
So they say it's true
Well that may be so
But it does not
Apply to you
Putting the work in is not what we wanna do...
This band is a true, 3-piece rock band with songwriting skills for days. Banjos, acoustic flavoring, spot-on harmonies, and the crunch necessary for ultimate heaviness. If you like your rock with a twist, here it is.
Of course, it's all music.
 
Thin Line - Indigo Girls
i thought the time was passed when i could
find beauty in a birds
i set the stage and the scenery
rehearsing every word

well it was always less
and it's a thin line between pleasing yourself
and pleasing somebody else
oh yeah
oh yeah
all right
with my confidence on fire
i set to fixin' up my roles
my separation of desires
just left me deeper down in the hole
yeah when i tried to make it more
well it was always less
and it's a thin line between pleasing yourself
and pleasing somebody else
yeah and when i tried to make it more
well it was always less
it's a thin line between pleasing yourself
and pleasing somebody else
now i'm tryin to get back
to what i know that i should be
hoping to god that i was just
a temporary absentee
yeah when i tried to make it more
well it was always less
it's a thin line between pleasing yourself
and pleasing somebody else
yeah when i tried to make it more
well it was always less
and it's a thin line between pleasing yourself
and pleasing somebody else
somebody else oh yeah
