What does your username mean again? LOL. I been looking at it but can't work it out and I forgot what you said sorry.
 



In France, a skinny man died of a big disease with a little name
By chance his girlfriend came across a needle and soon she did the same
At home there are 17 year old boys and their idea of fun
Is being in a gang called The Disciples
High on crack and totin' a machine gun

Hurricane Annie ripped the ceiling of a church and killed everyone inside
You turn on the telly and every other story is tellin' you somebody died
A sister killed her baby 'cause she couldn't afford to feed it
And we're sending people to the moon
In September, my cousin tried reefer for the very first time
Now he's doing horse, it's June

It's silly, no?
When a rocket ship explodes and everybody still wants to fly
But some say a man ain't happy unless a man truly dies
Oh why?

Baby make a speech, Star Wars fly
Neighbors just shine it on
But if a night falls and a bomb falls
Will anybody see the dawn?

Sign o' the times mess with your mind
Hurry before it's too late
Let's fall in love, get married, have a baby
We'll call him Nate
If it's a boy



Songwriters: Prince Rogers Nelson

Oh I remember now. Suck it.

We held hands on the last night on Earth
Our mouths filled with dust, we kissed in the fields and under trees
Screaming like dogs, bleeding dark into the leaves
It was empty on the edge of town but we knew everyone floated
Along the bottom of the river
So we walked through the waste where the road curved into the sea
And the shattered seasons lay
And the bitter smell of burning was on you like a disease
In our cancer of passion you said, "Death is a midnight runner"

The sky had come crashing down like the news of an intimate suicide
We picked up the shards and formed them into shapes
Of stars that wore like an antique wedding dress
The echoes of the past broke the hearts of the unborn
As the ferris wheel silently slowed to a stop
The few insects skittered away in hopes of a better pastime
I kissed you at the apex of the maelstrom and asked
If you would accompany me in a quick fall
But you made me realize that my ticket wasn't good for two
I rode alone

You said, "The cinders are falling like snow"
There is poetry in despair, and we sang with unrivaled beauty
Bitter elegies of savagery and eloquence
Of blue and grey
Strange, we ran down desperate streets and carved our names in the flesh of the city
The sun was stagnated somewhere beyond the rim of the horizon
And the darkness is a mystery of curves and lines
Still, we lay under the emptiness and drifted slowly outward
And somewhere in the wilderness we found salvation scratched
Into the earth like a message

.......

I cannot leave here, I cannot stay
Forever haunted, more than afraid
Asphyxiate on words I would say
I'm drawn to a blackened sky as I turn blue

There are no flowers, no not this time
There'll be no angels gracing the lines
Just these stark words, I find
I'd show a smile, but i'm too weak
I'd share with you could I only speak
Just how much this hurts me

I cannot stay here, I cannot leave
Just like all I loved, I'm make believe
Imagine heart, I disappear, seems
No one will appear, here and make me real

There are no flowers, no not this time
There'll be no angels gracing the lines
Just these stark words, I find
I'd show a smile, but i'm too weak
I'd share with you could I only speak
Just how much this hurts me

I'd tell you how it haunts me
I'd tell you how it haunts me
(cuts through my day, and sinks into my dreams.)
I'd tell you how it haunts me
(cuts through my day, and sinks into my dreams.)
You don't care that it haunts me

Oh
There are no flowers, no not this time
There'll be no angels gracing the lines
Just these stark words, I find
I'd show a smile, but i'm too weak
I'd share with you could I only speak
Just how much this, hurts me

Just how much this, hurts me

Just how much you...

This is the final night, boys
We are the cracks in diamond walls
I tried to illuminate but the shadows kill
I'm overshadowed
See how I blend in with nothing?

Now beautiful boys, let's destroy
We'll shine as the lucite breaks and falls
Raise the new glitter god with the golden tears - the tears that swallow
A smile that's touched so warms nothing

Yesterday I burnt the sky, looked to the ground and wrapped it around me
Still today I have so much to burn
Yesterday I longed to die, fell to the ground, and the ground caught me
Now today I question why I fell
I fell

Deities fell to decoys, tainting what's pure
Let's cleanse them all

Infinite life reclaimed, as the shadows kill they are overshadowed
We'll burn as they fade into nothing

Yesterday I burnt the sky, looked to the ground and wrapped it around me
Still today I have so much to burn
Yesterday I longed to die, fell to the ground, and the ground caught me
Now today I question why I fell

So what can help me to understand somehow why it always pains me to, pains me to breathe?
We're no longer confined because yesterday I burnt the sky
We're no longer confined because yesterday I burnt the sky

Yesterday I burnt the sky, looked to the ground and wrapped it around me
Still today I have so much to burn, to burn
Yesterday I longed to die, fell to the ground, and the ground caught me
Now today I question why I fell
I fell

(We're no longer confined)
I fell
(because yesterday I burnt the sky)
I fell

Because yesterday I...
 


Raised myself for a million lies
I could sell religion to Jesus Christ
A broken home, I left behind
Gave up everything for a couple of lines

I know my time is growing near
My heart is empty and there's no tears
I wasted so many years
Lost in the bottle 'till I disappeared

Heading down the same routine
My throne is high just like a king
But black tar and nicotine
Shot me in the heart and killed my dreams
 


Calling tears from deep inside, oh you're so exquisite
And in the mirror, all midnight eyes
Oh if I could remain, but it's just a visit
All midnight eyes read "vacancy"
Twisted, twisting

To the lovely dancing lights, I begged, "May I cut in?"
But they never stopped playing "their song"
Of a joyous song they sing, I've heard whispers
On a freezing note, I resonate

Just like romantic verses, just like a joyous end
Just like a memory, it twists me
Just like romantic verses, just like a joyous end
Twist, twisting me

You land as lightly as the new snow, cinematic
Onto the melting boy, and melt away
You light as gently, you're so cinematic
Bathed in your radiance, I melt

In the glitter, in the dark, sunk into velvet
Praying this will never end
In the shadow of a star, in static pallor
I realized I never began

Just like romantic verses, just like a joyous end
Just like a memory, it twists me
Just like romantic verses, just like a joyous end
Twist, twisting me

You land as lightly as the new snow, cinematic
Onto the melting boy, and melt away
You light as gently, you're so cinematic
Bathed in your radiance, I melt

All the colours upon leaving, all will turn to grey
All the colours upon leaving, all will turn to grey
(All grey) All the colours (All grey) upon leaving
(All grey) all will turn to grey
(All grey) All the colours (All grey) upon leaving

You land as lightly as the new snow, cinematic
Onto the melting boy, and melt away
You light as gently, you're so cinematic
Bathed in your radiance

You land as lightly as the new snow, cinematic
You land as lightly as the new snow, and melt away
You land as lightly as the new snow, cinematic
Bathed in your radiance, I melt

I can't use what I can't abuse
And I can't stop when it comes to you
You burned me out but I'm back at your door
Like Joan of Arc coming back for more

I nearly died
I nearly died
I nearly died

I came to cut you up, I came to knock you down
I came around to tear your little world apart
I came to shut you up, I came to drag you down
I came around to tear your little world apart and break your soul apart

Ah, you burn and burn to get under my skin
You've gone too far now I won't give in
You crucified me but I'm back in your bed
Like Jesus Christ coming back from the dead

I nearly died
I nearly died
I nearly died

I came to knock you up, I came to cut you down
I came around to tear your little world apart
I came to rock you up, I came to shout you down
I came around to tear your little world apart and break your soul apart

I can't stop when it comes to you
I can't stop when it comes to you
When it comes to you
When it comes to you

Now listen, I think you and me
Have come to the end of our time
Whatd'ya want, some kind of reaction?
Well okay, that's fine

Alright, how would it make you feel
If I said you never made me cum?
In the year and a half that we spent together
Yeah, I never really had much fun

All those times that I said I was sober
Well I'm afraid I lied
I'd be lyin' next to you and you next to me
All the while I was high as a kite

I could see it in your face as you break it to me gentle
Yeah, you really must think you're great
Well let's see how you feel in a couple of weeks
When I work my way through your mates

I never wanted it to end up this way
You've only got yourself to blame
I'm gonna tell the world you're rubbish in bed now
And that you're small in the game

So you thought this was gonna be easy?
Well you're out of luck
Yeah, let's rewind, let's turn back time
To when you couldn't get it up

You know what? It shoulda ended it there
That's when I shoulda shown you the door
As if that weren't enough to deal with
You became premature

I'm sorry if you feel that I'm being kinda mental
But you left me in such a state
Now I'm gonna do what you did to me
Gonna reciprocate

I never wanted it to end up this way
You've only got yourself to blame
I'm gonna tell the world you're rubbish in bed now
And that you're small in the game

You're not big, you're not clever
No, you ain't a big brother, not big whatsoever
You're not big, you're not clever
No, you're ain't a big brother, not big whatsoever


Songwriters: Kurstin Gregory Allen / Allen Lily Rose Beatrice
 



I am one, one that shines
Yeah, I was born of a scorpion's mind
I am one, so alive
Don't try to teach me what your lips can't decide


I'm the Sun, so alive
A simple breath's all I need to get by
Words you speak are like dirt in my mind
I'm gonna burn till all the stars die


As it is, thought divine
A diamond seed in the heart of all mind
All is truth, truth it shines
Don't hesitate for the world it divides


[Flame on]

I used to bleed like a suicide mother

[Flame on]

And now I breathe in this dirty black Summer

[Flame on]

I bought the truth in the mouth of my brother

[Flame on]

I used to bleed like a suicide motherfucker



Songwriters: Bob Marlette/Ian Robert Astbury/ Tony Iommi
 



Some people call me the Space Cowboy
Some call me the Gangster of Love
Some people call me Maurice
'Cause I speak of the pompatus of love

People talk about me baby
Say I'm doin' you wrong, doin' you wrong
Well don't you worry, baby, don't worry
'Cause I'm right here, right here, right here, right here at home

'Cause I'm a picker
I'm a grinner
I'm a lover
And I'm a sinner
I play my music in the Sun

I'm a joker
I'm a smoker
I'm a midnight toker
I sure don't want to hurt no one

I'm a picker
I'm a grinner
I'm a lover
And I'm a sinner
I play my music in the Sun

I'm a joker
I'm a smoker
I'm a midnight toker
I get my lovin' on the run


You're the cutest thing that I ever did see
I really love your peaches
Wanna shake your tree
Lovey dovey, lovey dovey, lovey dovey all the time
Ooh wee baby, I'll sure show you a good time

'Cause I'm a picker
I'm a grinner
I'm a lover
And I'm a sinner
I play my music in the Sun

I'm a joker
I'm a smoker
I'm a midnight toker
I get my lovin' on the run

I'm a picker
I'm a grinner
I'm a lover
And I'm a sinner
I play my music in the Sun

I'm a joker
I'm a smoker
I'm a midnight toker
I sure don't want to hurt no one

There was a thick set man with frog eyes
Who was standing by the door
And a little bald man with wing-nut ears
Was waiting in the car
Well Robert Moore passed the frog-eyed man
As he walked into the bar
And Betty Coltrane she jumped under her table

"What's your pleasure?" asked the barman
He had a face like boiled meat
"There's a girl called Betty Coltrane
That I have come to see"
"But I ain't seen that girl 'round here
For more than a week"
And Betty Coltrane she hid beneath the table

Well, then in came a sailor with
Mermaids tattooed on his arms
Followed by the man with the wing-nut ears
Who was waitin' in the car
Well, Robert Moore sensed trouble
He'd seen it comin' from afar
And Betty Coltrane she gasped beneath the table

Well, the sailor said "I'm looking for my wife
They call her Betty Coltrane!"
The frog-eyed man said "That can't be
That's my wife's maiden name."
And the man with the wing-nut ears said
"Hey, I married her back in Spain!"
And Betty Coltrane crossed herself beneath the table

Well, Robert Moore stepped up and said
"That woman is my wife."
And he drew a silver pistol
And a wicked bowie knife
And he shot the man with the wing-nut ears
Straight between the eyes
And Betty Coltrane, she moaned under the table

The frog-eyed man jumped at Robert Moore
Who stabbed him in the chest
And as Mister Frog-eyes died he said
"Betty, your the girl that I loved best!"
The sailor pulled a razor
Robert blasted it to bits
"And Betty, I know you're under the table."

"Well have no fear," said Robert Moore
"I do not want to hurt you!"
"Never a woman did'na love me
Half as much as you
You are the blessed' Sun, girl
And you are the sacred Moon."
And Betty shot his legs out from under the table!

Well, Robert Moore went down heavy
With a crash upon the floor
And over to his trashin' body
Betty Coltrane she did crawl
She put the gun to the back of head
And pulled the trigger once more
And blew his brains out all over the table!

Well Betty stood up and shook her head
And waved the smoke away
Said, "I'm sorry Mr Barman
To leave your place this way."
As she emptied out their wallets she said
"I'll collect my severence pay."
And then she winked and threw a dollar on the table

Dedication to my mother




Oh, my pretty precious stone
Just left me in ribbons
With my heart sliced carefully
You wear it like a cheerful bow

There's a light that you now adore
But the bringer is cast down
I have never been before
So unhappy in my whole life


Heart stops beating, beat like a brutal day
You were my first faith, made out of lies like all the others
Heart stops beating, beat like a brutal day
I found my last light but it died like all the others (all the others)


Oh my painful fatal flaw
May your cruelty find you
May the scars you left in me
Dig into you twice as deep

I know you'll look away while I'm crying
I know you'll wear that bow with a smile
Everything I gave you, it was wasted
Love further down, adore that denial


I stopped feeling, numb now I have to be
Because I trusted you I cannot trust another
Heart stops beating, what was brutality?
You were my last light so I'll die like all the others
