"The Story So Far" - A New Found Glory
I can't remember the time or place,
or what you were wearing,
it's unclear about how we met,
all I know it was the best conversation that I've ever had,
to this day I never found someone,
with eyes as wide as yours,
I've been searching up and down this coast,
overlooking what I need the most
did you notice I was afraid?
I thought I'd run out of things to say,
two more hours I took today merciless away,
and it starts all over again,
the sky will never look the same again,
till you show me how it could be,
the sky will never look the same again,
till you show me how it could be
and everything else is irrelevant,
to the story so far,
a coincidence that you look like her from a far,
is it true that you like to sleep alone?
Or is it fun to just tell everyone?
Did you notice that I was afraid?
I thought I'd run out of things to say
two more hours I took today merciless away,
and it starts all over again
the sky will never look the same again,
till you show me how it could be
the sky will never look the same again
till you show me how it could be
and when the world turns over
ill keep my ears to the wall
and when the world turns over
ill keep my feet straight on the ground
did u notice I was afraid?
I thought I'd run out of things to say,
two more hours I took today merciless away,
and it starts all over again,
the sky will never look the same again
till you show me how it could be
the sky will never look the same again
till you show me how it could be
 
Dr. Dre : "Ed-ucation"
Performed by Eddie Griffin
Aww they say uhh..
.. a black man is a pimp
Well let me tell you the biggest pimp
on planet motherfuckin Earth, is her momma
It's her MOMMA that told her,
"Get a man that got a good job gurl!
Make sure he got a good car gurl!
Make sure he can take you out and buy you somethin gurl!"
What happened to just fallin in love with a nigga with a bus pass --
-- just cause you love the nigga?
But +I'm+ the pimp motherfucker!
I gotta be the player!
Biggest hoes, on planet Earth..
.. are walkin through the motherfuckin neighborhood
You KNEW when you got with the nigga he already had a woman
You knew he already had a family
but you fucked him anyway!!!
And then when you thought you gon' lose the nigga
you went and got pregant - didn't you bitch, DIDN'T YOU!!
THE OL' KEEP A NIGGA BABY
And then when the nigga ain't around, what do you tell the child?
"Aww that nigga ain't shit, that's why yo' daddy ain't here;
cause that nigga ain't shit."
How bout bein a woman, and tellin the kid the truth
that yo' momma, you was a hoe!
TELL THE KID!
Momma was a hoe, I was weekend pussy
I had you to keep the nigga, it didn't work out
that's why he ain't here - but he a good nigga
cause he take care of his REAL family
I was just a dumb bitch, tryin to keep, a nigga that I wanted
 
I just discovered Sebadoh, and have never before come across a band with lyrics that appeal as much to me as theirs have.
NOT A FRIEND
I'm not a good friend, I'm not a friend at all
It's never resolved, I'm nervous when you call
My words are limp, and my mind is dry
I try to be polite, but I feel like I'm stuck for life
I follow my heart, it leads me far from you
No matter how close we are, I'm far, far away
I have too much now to fill my day today
I'm not a good friend, I'm not a friend at all
I don't need obligations to our crippled conversations
I’d never tell you, it’s something you should know
I'm not a friend at all, oh, please let me go
Somehow I don't trust you
I don't trust myself
And I may never forgive you
‘Cuz I can't forgive myself
Somehow I don't trust you
I don't trust myself
And I may never forgive you
‘Cuz I can't forgive myself
Don't break my stride
BEAUTY OF THE RIDE
Never did and never will
It’s just the way it’s always been
I’ve made mistakes before, I’ll make the same again
And all this tension we ignore surely works its ugly way inside
I have known that nothing’s fair, surely what did I expect?
When magic slips into the air and every day’s another test
And all this tension we ignore, it surely works its ugly way outside
So let it build, let it explode
Leaving blood and shattered bone
Or bite your tongue ‘til you’ve forgotten what to say
And take another step back, until you find you’ve walked away
Silence like disease, but I dare not say it hurts
‘Cuz if I honestly react, nothing’s ever gonna work
All this tension back and forth
It’s just the beauty of the ride
It’s just the beauty of the ride
So let it build, let it explode
Leaving blood and shattered bone
Or bite your tongue ‘til you’ve forgotten what to say
And take another step back, until you find you’ve walked away
 
Lately Ive been listening to this song soo much, the lyrics are great but the reason it means so much to me at the moment is coz the way second half is sung is exactly how I get when i get all emotional and Im crying and it feels like the world is falling appart all around me. its like the emotion is just pouring out of you without even giving you time to take a breath in between the words. its just amazing!
Disintegration-The Cure
Oh I miss the kiss of treachery
The shameless kiss of vanity
The soft and the black and the velvety
Up tight against the side of me
And mouth and eyes and heart all bleed
And run in thickening streams of greed
As bit by bit it starts the need
To just let go
My party piece
Oh I miss the kiss of treachery
The aching kiss before I feed
The stench of a love for a younger meat
And the sound that it makes
When it cuts in deep
The holding up on bended knees
The addiction of duplicities
As bit by bit it starts the need
To just let go
My party piece
But I never said I would stay to the end
So I leave you with babies and hoping for frequency
Screaming like this in the hope of the secrecy
Screaming me over and over and over
I leave you with photographs
Pictures of trickery
Stains on the carpet and
Stains on the scenery
Songs about happiness murmured in dreams
When we both us knew
How the ending would be...
So it's all come back round to breaking apart again
Breaking apart like I'm made up of glass again
Making it up behind my back again
Holding my breath for the fear of sleep again
Holding it up behind my head again
Cut in deep to the heart of the bone again
Round and round and round
And it's coming apart again
Over and over and over
Now that I know that I'm breaking to pieces
I'll pull out my heart
And I'll feed it to anyone
Crying for sympathy
Crocodiles cry for the love of the crowd
And the three cheers from everyone
Dropping through sky
Through the glass of the roof
Through the roof of your mouth
Through the mouth of your eye
Through the eye of the needle
It's easier for me to get closer to heaven
Than ever feel whole again
I never said I would stay to the end
I knew I would leave you with babies and everything
Screaming like this in the hole of sincerity
Screaming me over and over and over
I leave you with photographs
Pictures of trickery
Stains on the carpet and
Stains on the memory
Songs about happiness murmured in dreams
When we both of us knew
How the end always is

How the end always is...

my most favorite cure song, lyrically. :)
and now for something TOTALLY different...
Take a good look at it,look at it now
Might be the last time you'll have a good round
I'll let you touch it if you'd like to go down
I'll let you go further
If you take the southern route
Don't go too fast, don't go too slow
You've got to let your body flow
I like 'em attentive and I like 'em in control
Baby it's yours, all yours
If you want it tonight
I'll give you the red light special
All through the night
Baby it's yours, all yours
If you want it tonight
Just come through my door
Take off my clothes
And turn on the red light
I know that you want me
I can see it in your eyes
You might as well be honest
'Cause the body never lies
Tell me your secrets and I, I'll tell you mine
I'm feelin' quite sexy and I want you for tonight
If I move too fast just let me know
'Cause it means you move too slow
I like some excitement
And I like a man that goes
Baby it's yours, all yours
If you want it tonight
I'll give you the red light special
All through the night
Baby it's yours, all yours
If you want it tonight
Just come through my door
Take off my clothes
And turn on the red light
If you want me let me know it
I'll make time but you've got to show it
If you need me, I want to see
But don't mistake me
I don't want you down on your knees
I need someone, a real man,
I need someone who understands
I'm a woman, a real woman
I know just what I want
I know just who I am
Baby it's yours, all yours
If you want it tonight
I'll give you the red light special
All through the night
Baby it's yours, all yours
If you want it tonight
Just come through my door
Take off my clothes
And turn on the red light

I just broke up with someone. It hurts *sigh* as break ups always do...
Song to the Siren - Lost Witness and Sunrise - Ratty
On the floating, shapeless oceans
I did all my best to smile
til your singing eyes and fingers
drew me loving into your eyes.
And you sang "Sail to me, sail to me;
Let me enfold you."
Here I am, here I am waiting to hold you.
Did I dream you dreamed about me?
Were you here when I was full sail?
Now my foolish boat is leaning, broken love lost on your rocks.
For you sang, "Touch me not, touch me not, come back tomorrow."
Oh my heart, oh my heart shies from the sorrow.
I´m as puzzled as a newborn child.
I´m as riddled as the tide.
Should I stand amid the breakers?
Or shall I lie with death my bride?
 
And All That Could Have Been - Nine Inch Nails
breeze still carries the sound
maybe i'll disappear
tracks will fade in the snow
you won't find me here
ice is starting to form
ending what had begun
i am locked in my head
with what i've done
i know you tried to rescue me
didn't let anyone get in
left with a trace of all that was
and all that could have been
please
take this
and run far away
far away from me
i am tainted
the two of us
were never meant to be
all these pieces
and promises
and left behinds
if only i could see
in my nothing
you meant everything
everything to me
gone
fading
everything
and
all that
could have been
could have been
please
take this
and run far away
far as you can see
i am tainted
and happiness
and peace of mind
were never meant for me
all these pieces
and promises
and left behinds
if only i could see
in my nothing
you meant everything
everything to me
 
HURT - NINE INCH NAILS
i hurt myself today
to see if i still feel
i focus on the pain
the only thing that's real
the needle tears a hole
the old familiar sting
try to kill it all away
but i remember everything
what have i become
my sweetest friend
everyone i know
goes away in the end
you could have it all
my empire of dirt
i will let you down
i will make you hurt
i wear this crown of shit
upon my liar's chair
full of broken thoughts
i cannot repair
beneath the stains of time
the feeling disappears
you are someone else
i am still right here
what have i become
my sweetest friend
everyone i know
goes away in the end
you could have it all
my empire of dirt
i will let you down
i will make you hurt
if i could start again
a million miles away
i would keep myself
i would find a way
:(
 
Dashboard Confessional- Saints and Sailors
This is where I say I've had enough and no one should ever feel the way that I feel now.
A walking open wound,
a trophy display of bruises and I don't believe that I'm getting any better.
Waiting here with hopes the phone will ring and I'm thinking awful things
and I'm pretty sure that few would notice.
And this apartment is starving for an argument. Anything at all to break the silence.
Wandering this house like I've never wanted out and this is about as social as I get now.
And I'm throwing away the letters that I am writing you 'cause they would never do,
I would never do.
Waiting here with hopes the phone will ring and I'm thinking awful things
and I'm retty sure that few would notice.
And this apartment is starving for an argument. Anything at all to break the silence.
So don't be a liar don't say that "everything's working" when everything's broken.
And you smile like a saint
but you curse like a sailor
and your eyes say the jokes on me.
But i'm not laughing
You're not leaving
Who do i think i am kidding?
When i'm the only one locked in this hell...
 
Lou Reed - Perfect Day
Just a perfect day
Drink sangria in the park
And then later, when it gets dark, we'll go home
Just a perfect day
Feed animals in the zoo
Then later a movie too, and then home
[Chorus:]
Oh it's such a perfect day
I'm glad I spent it with you
Oh such a perfect day
You just keep me hanging x2
Just a perfect day
Problems all left alone
Weekenders on our own
It's such fun
Just a perfect day
You make me forget myself
I thought I was someone else
Someone good
[Chorus]
You're going to reap just what you sow
You're going to reap just what you sow
You're going to reap just what you sow
You're going to reap just what you sow
 
^^thank you for posting that, everytime I watch trainspotting I plan to go and find what that song is but I never got around to doing it :) now I know. thanks :)
 
Thursday
"A Hole In The World"
In this blackout inertia will hold our thoughts
And the exit sign offers no light to see by
Can we cast our shadows alone in the dark?
I can't see without you
When the world comes crashing down
Part with it
Start again
When the world comes crashing down
These notes will fold themselves
Standing at the margin's edge to see where the daybreak ends
You can find compassion here
But the page turns too fast

We fell in this hole that opened up
Giving up on hope
Living without love
And we still type black lines
When the world comes crashing down
These notes will fold themselves
Adjust the aperture to focus on the negative
Like phosphors in the darkroom ignite
Like dodging faces in the corner of the print
Frame by frame this hole is opening and we fall in
There is no such thing as whole
There is a hole in the world
"I Am The Killer"
Tuesday wakes up silent
And there aren't enough pills to sleep
And then it cuts out like miswired shortwave radio
It's over
But nothing can change to ever make it right
When you live in a nightmare
It's written all over your face.
And in a short time
You're never the same again
The distance is streamlined
Between decision and defense

Distorient the senses
Loss of identity
No one to trust
Life runs through this trade
I am no killer
But I still hide my face
In the coming days
I wake up every morning
From the same dream
And then I kill it
But you can't change the letters when the ink dries

I woke up on the sidewalk and everything just changed
Now the lights are blinking but I can't see anything
Everything is falling apart:
Crumpled paper
Crushed tin cans
Broken bottles
Paper scraps
We all look the same
We all look the same
But I am the killer

EXCERPT FROM A TEENAGE OPERA
Keith West - 1969
Jack get up and get some fresh air, for Jesus Christ, get on your feet,
Without you, Jack, the town can't eat.
Grocer Jack, Grocer Jack, get off your bed,
come into town, don't let me down, oh no, no.
Grocer Jack, Grocer Jack, get off your bed,
go into town, don't let them down, oh no, no.
The people that live in the town,
don't understand he's never been known to Mrs. Lown.
It's ten o'clock, the housewife squeals, when Jack turns up, we'll give him hell.
Husbands moaning, breakfast tables, no milk, no eggs, no marmalade labels.
Mothers send their children out, to Jack's house to scream and shout.
+ REFRAIN
It's Sunday morning, bright and clear,
lovely flowers decorate a marble square.
People cry from far away, think about the fateful day,
now they wish, they'd given Jack more attention and respect,
little children, dressed in black, don't know what happened to old Jack.
+ REFRAIN
Grocer Jack, Grocer Jack, is it true what Mammy said,
you won't come back. oh no, no.

Brand New Heavies
You Are The Universe
You're the future, and you've come for what is yours
The hidden treasure, locked behind the hidden doors
And the promise of a day that's shiny new
Only a dreamer, could afford this point of view
But you're a driver, not a passenger in life
And if you're ready, you won't have to try 'cause
You are the Universe
And there ain't nothin' you can't do/be
If you conceive it, you can achieve it
That's why, I believe in you, yes I do
You're a winner, so do what you came here for
The secret weapon, isn't secret anymore
You're a driver, never passenger in life
And when you're ready, you won't have to try 'cause
(Yes I do Believe in you I do)
You're a driver, not a passenger in life
And when you're ready, you won't have to try 'cause
You are the Universe...

The Strokes-Is This It
Can't you see I'm trying, I don't even like it
I just lie to get to your apartment
Now I'm staying there just for a while
I can't think 'cause I'm just way too tired
Is this it
Is this it
Is this it
Said they'd give you anything you ever wanted
When they lied I knew they were just stable
Children trying hard not to realise I was sitting right behind
Dear can't you see, it's them it's not me
We're not enimies, we just disagree
If I was like him, all dissing his Pa
He changes his mind, says I went too far
We all disagree I think we should disagree, yeah
Is this it
Is this it
Is this it
Can't you see I'm trying, I don't even like it
I just lie to get to your apartment
Now I'm staying there just for a while
I can't think 'cause I'm just way too tired

-----------------------
hum-i'd like your hair long
i'd like your hair long and ladeled to the ground
but you'd prefer an astronaut
someone to relate to and someone to command
and i would be a simple man
i could hardly wait for my stars to fall in line
and synchronize and shine
a wasted string of years, and a wasted string of lies

it's still the same to me
it's a waste of a song
you're a waste of my lungs
it's a waste of a song
i'd like your face gone and in its place the sun
and i would be an astronaut
for i have come to surface to catch some light and feed
and i have everything i need
and i could hardly wait for my stars to fall in line
and synchronize and shine
a wasted string of years, and a wasted string of lies
you're still the same to me
you're a waste of a song
you're a waste of my lungs
it's a waste of a song

------------------
the promise ring-living around
I'm losing my voice talking to you about talking to you. Reading your books and wearing your clothes, nobody knows that they're not mine. I guess that just fits with all this living around, things finally getting sound. With this place that I've found. It's the end of the world today, you drop a bomb on my bad day. You're the end of the world.

"Words are flowing out like endless rain into a paper cup,
They slither while they pass, they slip away Across the Universe.
Pools of sorrow, waves of joy are drifting through my opened mind,
Possessing and caressing me.
Jai Guru Deva Om
Nothing's gonna change my world, Nothing's gonna change my world.
Nothing's gonna change my world, Nothing's gonna change my world.
Images of broken light which dance before me like a million eyes,
They call me on and on Across the Universe.
Thoughts meander like a restless wind inside a letter box,
They tumble blindly as they make their way Across the Universe
Jai Guru Deva Om
Nothing's gonna change my world, Nothing's gonna change my world.
Nothing's gonna change my world, Nothing's gonna change my world.
Sounds of laughter, shades of earth are ringing
Through my open ears inciting and inviting me.
Limitless, undying love, which shines around me like a million suns,
And calls me on and on Across the Universe"
Jai Guru Deva Om
Nothing's gonna change my world, Nothing's gonna change my world.
Nothing's gonna change my world, Nothing's gonna change my world"
Across the Universe-The Beatles
 
Old Red Eyes Is Back (Beautiful South)
Old Red eyes is back
Red from the night before the night before
Walked into the wrong bar walked into a door
Old Red's in town
And sitting late at night he doesn't make a sound
Just adding to the wrinkles on his deathly frown
They're only red from all the tears that I should've shed
They're only red from all the women that I could've wed
So when you look into these eyes I hope you realise
They could never be blue
They could never be blue
They could never be blue
They could never be blue
Listen up Old Red
You never listened to a word the doctor said
He told you if you drank another you'd be dead
Old Red Eyes is back
His shoulders ache all over and his brain is sore
He pours a drink and listens to his body thaw
They're only red from all the thoughts unused inside my head
They're only red from all the things I could have done instead
So when you look into these eyes I hope you realise
They could never be blue
They could never be blue
They could never be blue
They could never be blue
Blue is a street without an end
Red is the colour of my hell
Blue is a greeting from a friend
Red is the colour of farewell
Old Red he died
And every single landlord in the district cried
An empty bottle of whisky laying by his side
A lazy little tear running from each eye
They could never be blue
They could never be blue
They could never be blue
They could never be blue
 
For my grampa, who died a year ago tomorrow.
I've changed a lot in this past year,
and not for the best.

Stone Temple Pilots - Creep
Forward yesterday
Makes me wanna stay
What they said was real
Makes me wanna steal
Livin' under house
Guess I'm livin', I'm a mouse
All's I gots is time
Got no meaning, just a rhyme
Take time with a wounded hand
'Cause it likes to heal
Take time with a wounded hand
'Cause I like to steal
Take time with a wounded hand
'Cause it likes to heal, I like to steal
I'm half the man I used to me
This I feel as the dawn
It fades to gray
Well, I'm half the man I used to be
This I feel as the dawn
It fades to gray
Well, I'm half the man I used to me
This I feel as the dawn
It fades to gray
Well, I'm half the man I used to be, half the man I used to be
Feelin' uninspired
Think I'll start a fire
Everybody run
Bobby's got a gun
Think you're kinda neat
Then she tells me I'm a creep
Friends don't mean a thing
Guess I'll leave it up to me

Take time with a wounded hand
'Cause it likes to heal
Take time with a wounded hand
Guess I like to steal
Take time with a wounded hand
'Cause it likes to heal, I like to steal
I'm half the man I used to me
This I feel as the dawn
It fades to gray
I'm half the man I used to be
This I feel as the dawn
It fades to gray
I'm half the man I used to be
This I feel as the dawn
It fades to gray
I'm half the man I used to be, half the man I used to be
Take time with a wounded hand
'Cause it likes to heal
Take time with a wounded hand
Guess I like to steal
Take time with a wounded hand
'Cause it likes to heal, I like to steal

I'm half the man I used to me
This I feel as the dawn
It fades to gray
I'm half the man I used to be
This I feel as the dawn
It fades to gray
I'm half the man I used to be
This I feel as the dawn
It fades to gray
I'm half the man I used to be, half the man I used to be,
Half the man I used to be

I miss you so much...and I'm sorry.
 
Good Life

Softly Now,
You owe it to the world
And everyone knows that you're my favourite girl
But there's somethings in life that are not meant to be
I'm not meant for you and your not meant for me
Here's to our problems
And here's to our fights
Here's to our achings
And here's to you having a Good life
From Me
Good Life
Softer Now,
You owe it to yourself
And don't think that you will be left on the shelf
Cause there's someone for you and there's someone for me
Like me you'll meet them eventually
Here's to your lover
And here's to my wife
Here's to your children and here's to you having a good life
From Me
Good Life
Baby Baby Baby Baby
Baby Baby Baby Baby Baby Baby
Louder Now,
You've lost all your pain
You're married with children and happy again
And now I'm regretting the move that I made
Fatal mistakes are so easily made
Enough of my problems they only cause fights
Forget that I rang you
And promise you'll have such a
Beautifully happy and painlessly romantic
Good life
From Me
Good Life
It's almost time to start a new thread, people...
 
The Imploding Voice (Smashing Pumpkins)
Everywhere you are
Is everywhere you've been
Just lost to the beat
Punching thru your skin
You don't know what to do
But still you wanna crawl
All thru the broken glass
That's eveywhere you are
Your love must always be true
Your love must always be you
Everywhere you are
Anywhere you go
Even if you're starved
It matters what you do
But even if you've gone too far
You can follow you
Everywhere you are
And in your mind
You were alone
All this time
With everything you were
And every smile you wore
Still locked in your heart
Everywhere you are
Everywhere you are
Every single chard
Everywhere you are
You're never too far
Cause anywhere you'd go
Even to the stars
All you have to do
Is play the part of who you are
The rest is up to you
Phase unwound
By yourself
Atom bomb
On the shelf unsung
Pause of light
Pulse of life
New face dawns
Everywhere you are
And everywhere you go
Even if you're down
Even if you're low
It's in the thought of you
It's in the eyes of all
Astride a storied past
That's everywhere you are
Your love must always be true
Your love must always be you
Everywhere you are
Anywhere you go
Even if you're scarred
It's all a part of you
But ever should you put it down
You can never lose me
Everywhere you are
