/end rant/
Jimmy Eat World-Goodbye Sky Harbor
"Is tomorrow just a day like all the rest."
How could you know just what you did?
So full of faith yet so full of doubt I ask.
Time and time again you said don't be afraid.
"If you believe you can do it."
The only voice I want to hear is yours.
Again.
I shall ask you this once again.
And again.
He said:
" I am but one small instrument."
Do you remember that?
So here I am above palm trees so straight and tall.
You are smaller, getting smaller.
But I still see you.
 
SimonMoon - HOLY SHIT! Ive never found anyone else who has heard of Protein. They are fucking awesome. Is that song from a new album? if so, what's it called? I've only got "Ever since I was a kid". I love this band, they fucking rock.
Slightly Bitchy Philosopher Dream Chick Meets The Insecure Martian Prophet <--- Click to hear this awesome track (it's so musch better if you hear the music with it)
-Protein
Seeing her was like seeing Christ
Like the little drummer boy seeing Christ
Except I'm not a drummer and she wasn't Christ
I made a little riff for her
And I played that little riff for her
I said here's a riff that I made for you
5-4-3-2
I'd put a star inside her skull If she'd let me underneath her halo
Martians have a halo too
Her halo is as big as mine
What are you gonna do
What'cha gonna do
What are ya gonna do
Gonna play a little song
Gonna play a little song
GOnna play a song for her
After I played my little song
I told her she was pretty
She looked at me and said that she knew that already
And she said "Flesh is only temporary, but I think you're pretty too"

Kai Tracid ~ "Life is Too Short"
(i think this has a very powerful, yet simple, message)
Life is too short
dont stress everyday
leave your worries behind
go out and play
life is too short
grasp it in your hand
a natural miracle
have fun while you can
life is too short
as precious as gold
it's full of surprises
so i'm told
life is too short
take it from me
have as much fun as you wish
just wait and see
life is too short
people seem to forget
that life is a gift
and its free and that's it
life is too short
use your own eyes
open yourself
and enjoy your own life
[The NeverEnding Story theme song kicks in here]
 
Yo, Spencer! Yeah, "Songs About Cowgirls" was their second album, after "Ever Since I Was A Kid." It's not quite as raw as "..Kid;" I guess they had more money for a producer... but it is a very strong album.
Not too many folks have heard of them. I wouldn't have, either, except I went to see King's X when they played here in Charlotte, NC, and Protein opened for them. I'm here to tell you, they tore up the joint. Never have I been so impressed with a band whose music I was unfamiliar with going in.
I highly recommend their second album, especially if you dig a little artistic growth in your kick-ass rock bands. It's a bit more pop-oriented, but only on the surface. When you get into it, you'll hear the same subversiveness and sense of humor.
Alas, the band broke up sometime in late 2000 or early 2001. A damn shame.
But how cool to find someone else who's heard of them!
 
And for the record, Spencer, I think the song you picked might just be the greatest rock track ever made, and I do not say that lightly. To all who read Spencer's post, he's 100% correct. The lyrics are bitchin', but the music does them justice in a way that cannot be described. The song is perfect.
 
Crucify - Tori Amos
Every finger in the room is pointing at me
I wanna spit in their faces
Then I get afraid what that could bring
I got a bowling ball in my stomach
I got a desert in my mouth
Figures that my COURAGE would choose to sell out now.
I've been looking for a savior in these dirty streets
Looking for a savior beneath these dirty sheets
I've been raising up my hands
Drive another nail in
Just what GOD needs
One more victim
Why do we crucify ourselves
Every day I crucify myself
Nothing I do is good enough for you
Crucify myself
Every day I crucify myself
And my HEART is sick of being in chains
Got a kick for a dog beggin' for LOVE
I gotta have my suffering
So that I can have my cross
I know a cat named Easter
He says will you ever learn
You're just an empty cage girl if you kill the bird
I've been looking for a savior in these dirty streets
Looking for a savior beneath these dirty sheets
I've been raising up my hands
Drive another nail in
Got enough GUILT to start
My own religion
Why do we crucify ourselves
Every day I crucify myself
Nothing I do is good enough for you
Crucify myself
Every day I crucify myself
And my HEART is sick of being in chains
Please be
Save me
I CRY
Looking for a savior in these dirty streets
Looking for a savior beneath these dirty sheets
I've been raising up my hands
Drive another nail in
Where are those angels
When you need them
Why do we crucify ourselves
Every day I crucify myself
Nothing I do is good enough for you
Crucify myself
Every day I crucify myself
And my HEART is sick of being in chains
Why do we change
Crucify ourselves
Everyday
Never going back again
Crucify myself again
You know
Never going back again to
Crucify myself
Everyday
 
i suck today.
life sucks today.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
When you were here before
Couldn't look you in the eye
You're just like an angel
Your skin makes me cry
You float like a feather
In a beautiful world
And I wish I was special
You're so fuckin' special
But I'm a creep, I'm a weirdo.
What the hell am I doing here?
I don't belong here.
I don't care if it hurts
I want to have control
I want a perfect body
I want a perfect soul
I want you to notice
When I'm not around
You're so fuckin' special
I wish I was special
But I'm a creep, I'm a weirdo.
What the hell am I doing here?
I don't belong here.
She's running out again,
She's running out
She's run run run running out...
Whatever makes you happy
Whatever you want
You're so fuckin' special
I wish I was special...
But I'm a creep, I'm a weirdo,
What the hell am I doing here?
I don't belong here.
I don't belong here.
Creep/Radiohead
 
KMFDM- Dogma
All we want is a headrush
All we want is to get out of our skin for a while
We have nothing to lose because we don't have anything
Anything we want anyway...
We used to hate people
Now we just make fun of them
It's more effective that way
We don't live
We just scratch on day to day
With nothing but matchbooks and
Sarcasm in our pockets
And all we are waiting for
Is for something worth waiting for
Let's admit america gets the celebrities we deserve
Let's stop saying "Don't quote me"
Because if no one quotes you
You probably haven't said a thing worth saying
Sex, drugs, god, cash, America
We need something to kill the pain
Of all that nothing inside
We all just want to die a little bit
We fear that pop-culture
Is the only culture we're ever going to have
We want to stop reading magazines
Stop watching TV
Stop caring about hollywood
But we're addicted to the things we hate
We don't run washington and no one really does
Ask not what you can do for your country
Ask what your country did to you
Sex, drugs, god, cash, America
The only reason you're still alive is because someone
Has decided to let you live
We owe so much money we're not broke we're broken
We're so poor we can't even pay attention
So what do you want
You want to be famous and rich and happy
But you're terrified you have nothing to offer this world
Nothing to say and no way to say it
But you can say it in three languages
You are more than the sum of what you consume
Desire is not an occupation
You are alternately thrilled and desperate
Skyhigh and fucked
Let's stop praying for someone
To save us and start saving ourselves
Let's stop this and start over
Let's go out - Let's get going
Sex, drugs, god, cash, America
This is your life - This is your fucking life
We need something to kill
The pain of all that nothing inside
Quit whining you haven't done
Anything wrong because frankly
You haven't done much of anything
Someone's writing down your mistakes
Someone's documenting your downfall
 
Frankly, working makes me ill.
Shafty (a/k/a Oblivious Fool) - Phish
The terrible thing about Hell
Is that when you're there, you can't even tell
As you go through this life you love so
You could be there and not even know
But you say "So what, I'm doing just fine!"
But the irony is that it's all in your mind
And that is why Hell is so vicious and cruel
'Cause you'll just go on, an oblivious fool.
 
in my life-John Lennon and Paul McCartney
there are places i'll remember
all my life
though some have changed
some forever not for better;
some have gone and some remain.
all these places have their moments
with lovers and friends i can still recall.
some are dead and some are living
in my life, i've loved them all
but of all these friends and lovers
there is no one compares with you
and these memories lose their meaning
when i think of love as something new
tho i know i'll never lose affection
for people and things that went before
i know i'll often stop and think about them.
in my life i love you more
tho i know i'll never lose affection
for people and things that went before
i know i'll often stop and think about them.
in my life i love you more
i love you more.....
Beautiful Day-3 Colours Red
Things you forget to say
Will haunt you
Down here a million days
I know you'll get me through
You don't need to stay
Because I'll never be alone
Do you cry anymore?
You're in the never-ending
Bitter and condescending blue
I just wanna be by you
And everything will turn to blue
The dream is fallacy come true
Just wanna spend some time with you
On a beautiful day...
Seeing the morning in
Forget to
Worry about the things
That hurt you
You'll becoming dependent now
Is it cold where you are too?
Freeze no more
You're in the never-ending
Bitter and condescending blue
I just wanna be by you
And everything will turn to blue
The dream is a fallacy come true
Just wanna spend some time with you
On a beautiful day...
We got it so throw it away
Cos we will be as lucky as the
Last time, child
The habits don't blow it away
We are on the other side
You know you're
Talking about the old times
Walking down an open road
But failing to disguise
Revealing the signs
Nothing you can do will change me
It's a beautiful day...
Ooooh
 
She don't need anybody to tell her she's pretty.
She's heard it every single day of her life.
He's got to wonder what she sees in him
when there's so many others standing in line.
She gives herself to him,
but he's still on the outside.
She's alone in this world.
She's nobody's girl.
She's nobody's girl.
She's shows up at his doorstep in the middle of the night.
Then she disappears for weeks at a time.
Just enough to keep him wanting more
But never is he satisfied.
And he's left to pick up the pieces
Wondering what does he do this for.
She's off in her own little world.
She's nobody's girl.
She's nobody's girl.
He said, "Before I met her, I didn't love nothin'.
I could take and leave it - that was okay.
She brings out a want in me
for things I didn't even know that I need."
She does anything she wants any time she wants to
with anyone - you know she wants it all.
Still she gets all upset over the least little thing
Man, you hurt her, it makes you feel so small.
And she's a walking contradiction,
but I ache for her inside.
She's fragile like a string of pearls.
She's nobody's girl
She's fragile like a string of pearls.
She's nobody's girl.
She's nobody's girl.
She's nobody's girl.
Nobody's Girl- Bonnie Rait
 
It's been seven hours and fifteen days
Since you took your love away
I go out every night and sleep all day
Since you took your love away
Since you been gone I can do whatever I want
I can see whomever I choose
I can eat my dinner in a fancy restaurant
But nothing
I said nothing can take away these blues
'Cause nothing compares
Nothing compares to you
It's been so lonely without you here
Like a bird without a song
Nothing can stop these lonely tears from falling
Tell me baby where did I go wrong
I could put my arms around every boy I see
But they'd only remind me of you
I went to the doctor
and guess what he told me
Guess what he told me
He said girl you better try to have fun
No matter what you do
But he's a fool
'Cause nothing compares
Nothing compares to you
All the flowers that you planted, mama
In the back yard
All died when you went away
I know that living with you baby
was sometimes hard
But I'm willing
to give it another try
Nothing compares
Nothing compares to you
Sinead O'Connor/Nothing Compares To You
/me chills
 
it can come from out of nowhere
hit you when you're safe and warm
take it easy my star
your time is gonna come, your time is gonna come
yeah you got those crazy blue eyes
you got those crazy blues
all those pretty smiles
i can see them laughing at you
your time is gonna come, your time is gonna come
i don't wanna be your punching bag
complacent little princess
all tragic and sad
i'm not gonna let you overwhelm me anymore
yeah you say you got this bad thing
you say you got it bad
you have broken every heart of every friend you've ever had
yeah the time is gonna come
when all your friends just go away
i wonder why you stick around
sometimes i wish you would leave
you say you'll love me forever, then you spit on me
you time is gonna come, i swear your time is gonna come
oh i dont' want to be your whipping boy
your pathetic little weasel, someone you can ignore
i'm not gonna let you overwhelm me anymore
i'm not gonna let you hurt me anymore
i'm not gonna let you hit me anymore
no i will not let you kick me anymore
i will not let you overwhem me anymore
it can come from out of nowhere
i don't want to be your simple saving grace
just another little victim with a happy face
someday, someday soon,
somebody's gonna come
i hope they do this to you
i'm not gonna let you overwhem me
i will not let you hurt me anymore'
no i will not let you hurt me anymore
i will not let you hit me anymore
i will not let you twist me anymore
i will not let you turn me inside out

i still recall the taste of your tears
echoing your voice just like the ringing in my ears
my favorite dreams of you still wash ashore
scraping through my head 'till i don't want to sleep anymore
you make this all go away
you make this all go away
i'm down to just one thing
and i'm starting to scare myself
you make this all go away
you make this all go away
i just want something
i just want something i can never have
you always were the one to show me how
back then i couldn't do the things that i can do now
this thing is slowly taking me apart
grey would be the color if i had a heart
come on tell me
you make this all go away
you make this all go away
i'm down to just one thing
and i'm starting to scare myself
you make this all go away
you make this all go away
i just want something
i just want something i can never have
in this place it seems like such a shame
though it all looks different now,
i know it's still the same
everywhere i look you're all i see
just a fading fucking reminder of who i used to be
come on tell me
you make this all go away
you make this all go away
i'm down to just one thing
and i'm starting to scare myself
you make this all go away
you make it all go away
i just want something
i just want something i can never have
i just want something i can never have

Magnum - Coming Honey (Spinkle)
My knuckles are bloody from punching the wall
I couldn't find the cordless so I missed your call
So now I put my anger back up on the shelf
And take down Irish whiskey that I'll drink myself
I think it's good stuff but my sister says it's rail
If I don't drink this bottle then no one will
Because I called all of the people I know
And all they want to do is sit at home
So I'm watching Tom Selleck on TV
And now no one's drinking but Magnum and me
My hand is broken from punching the clown
I couldn't get you up so I brought you down
Maybe it's wrong to assume the worst
We cheated each other but you got there first
When you kicked me out all the people I know
Were waiting for me when I got home
But I threw them out to watch TV
And now no one's drinking but Magnum and me
Maybe it's wrong to assume the worst
We cheated each other but you got there first
Maybe it's wrong to assume the worst...
 
This is my song for today it really rings true with how I feel about alot of things:Life.. by Marshall Mathers
What is life?
Life is like a big obstacle
put in front of your optical to slow you down
And everytime you think you gotten past it
it's gonna come back around and tackle you to the damn ground
What are friends?
Friends are people that you think are your friends
But they really your enemies, with secret indentities
and disguises, to hide they true colors
So just when you think you close enough to be brothers
they wanna come back and cut your throat when you ain't lookin
What is money?
Money is what makes a man act funny
Money is the root of all evil
Money'll make them same friends come back around
swearing that they was always down
What is life?
I'm tired of life
I'm tired of backstabbing ass snakes with friendly grins
I'm tired of committing so many sins
Tired of always giving in when this bottle of Henny wins
Tired of never having any ends
Tired of having skinny friends hooked on crack and mini-thins
I'm tired of this DJ playing YOUR shit when he spins
Tired of not having a deal
Tired of having to deal with the bullshit without grabbing the steel
Tired of drowning in my sorrow
Tired of having to borrow a dollar for gas to start my Monte Carlo
I'm tired of motherfuckers spraying shit and dartin off
I'm tired of jobs startin off at five fifty an hour
Then this boss wonders why I'm smartin off
I'm tired of being fired everytime I fart and cough
Tired of having to work as a gas station clerk
for this jerk breathing down my neck driving me bezerk
I'm tired of using plastic silverware
Tired of working in Builders Square
Tired of not being a millionaire
But if I had a million dollars
I'd buy a damn brewery, and turn the planet into alcoholics
If I had a magic wand, I'd make the world suck my dick
without a condom on, while I'm on the john
If I had a million bucks
it wouldn't be enough, because I'd still be out
robbing armored trucks
If I had one wish
I would ask for a big enough ass for the whole world to kiss
I'm tired of being white trash, broke and always poor
Tired of taking pop bottles back to the party store
I'm tired of not having a phone
Tired of not having a home to have one in if I did have one on
Tired of not driving a BM
Tired of not working at GM, tired of wanting to be him
Tired of not sleeping without a Tylenol PM
Tired of not performing in a packed coliseum
Tired of not being on tour
Tired of fucking the same blonde whore after work
in the back of a Contour
I'm tired of faking knots with a stack of ones
Having a lack of funds and resorting back to guns
Tired of being stared at
I'm tired of wearing the same damn Nike Air hat
Tired of stepping in clubs wearing the same pair of Lugz
Tired of people saying they're tired of hearing me rap about drugs
Tired of other rappers who ain't bringin half the skill as me
saying they wasn't feeling me when nobody's as ill as me
I'm tired of radio stations telling fibs
Tired of J-L-B saying "Where Hip-Hop Lives"
But if I had a million dollars
I'd buy a damn brewery, and turn the planet into alcoholics
If I had a magic wand, I'd make the world suck my dick
without a condom on, while I'm on the john
If I had a million bucks
it wouldn't be enough, because I'd still be out
robbing armored trucks
If I had one wish
I would ask for a big enough ass for the whole world to kiss
You know what I'm saying?
I'm tired of all of this bullshit
Telling me to be positive
How'm I 'sposed to be positive when I don't see shit positive?
Know what I'm sayin?
I rap about shit around me, shit I see
Know what I'm sayin? Right now I'm tired of everything
Tired of all this player hating that's going on in my own city
Can't get no airplay, you know what I'm sayin?
But ey, it's cool though, you know what I'm sayin?
Just fed up
That's my word

Tuff Gnarl - Sonic Youth
He's running on a tuff gnarl in his head
he's got a fatal erection home in bed
he's really smart and he's really fast
he's got a hard tit killer fuck in his past
saints preserve us in hot young stuff
the saving grace is a sonic pig pile
amazing grazing strange and raging
flies are flaring through your brains
spastic flailing literally raising my roof
an adrenal mental man-tool box
explodes in music creates utopia
you gnarl out on my nerves
you weird and crush the cranking raunch
flesh dirt forcefield lost and found
let's burn your broken heart
set our sight on sights not yet set
let's scorch your wavo wig
let's poke your eyes out

Alkaline Trio-My Little Needle
I'll come down to get you high
Or maybe sing you a lullabye
Sing you to sleep - a sleep you'll never wake from
Sing you to coma so to speak
When I fall down I'll fall apart
Trade in my bike for a shopping cart
and beg change from a world that needs some
like I need someone
So where are you my little needle?
The stack's been burned away
But I'm so inebriated that I cannot see
three feet in front of me
Between the moon and you, lunacy is setting in
Lately I've been feeling dead inside
Like my guts have dried up and died
But every night I water them back to life
yeah every night I water them back to life
When I fall down I'll fall apart
Trade in my bike for a shopping cart
and beg change from a world that needs some
I'm tired of sleeping alone
So where are you my little needle?
The stack's been burned away
But I'm so inebriated that I cannot see
three feet in front of me
Between the moon and you, lunacy is setting in
Alkaline Trio-Nose Over Tail
Crack my head open on your kitchen floor
To prove to you that I have brains
Meanwhile tin men are led by little girls
Down golden roads that lead to nowhere
Fine time to fake a seizure
Feel your mouth on mine, you're saving me
Whatever happened to that silly dream you had?
I want to make it real
I'd love to rub your back
Like a plane crash that never hits the ground
I fall in love with you
I'm nose over tail for you
Your voice like the sound of sirens to a house on fire
You're saving me
 
Now that I've lost everything to you
You say you wanna start something new
And it's breakin' my heart you're leavin'
Baby, I'm grievin'
But if you wanna leave, take good care
I hope you have a lot of nice things to wear
But then a lot of nice things turn bad out there
Oh, baby, baby, it's a wild world
It's hard to get by just upon a smile
Oh, baby, baby, it's a wild world
I'll always remember you like a child, girl
You know I've seen a lot of what the world can do
And it's breakin' my heart in two
Because I never wanna see you a sad girl
Don't be a bad girl
But if you wanna leave, take good care
I hope you make a lot of nice friends out there
But just remember there's a lot of bad and beware
Oh, baby, baby, it's a wild world
It's hard to get by just upon a smile
Oh, baby, baby, it's a wild world
I'll always remember you like a child, girl
Baby, I love you
But if you wanna leave, take good care
I hope you make a lot of nice friends out there
But just remember there's a lot of bad and beware
Oh, baby, baby, it's a wild world
It's hard to get by just upon a smile
Oh, baby, baby, it's a wild world
I'll always remember you like a child, girl
