Lyrics that appeal to you today v8.0

This song has always struck a chord with me, its so sad. its like a guy trying to convince himself that he didnt feel for a girl because she cheated on him or soemthing even though its obvious that he's hurt and that he did feel for her, at least thats my story for it.....
Evidence-Faith No More
If you want to open the hole
Just put your head down and go
Step beside the piece of circumstance
Got to wash away the taste of evidence
Wash it away
(Evidence...got a taste of evidence)
I didn't feel a thing
It didn't mean a thing
Look in the eye and testify;
I didn't feel a thing
Anything you say, we know you're guilty
Hands above your head and you won't even feel me
You won't feel me
 
Ms. ReD--my best friend/songwriting partner recorded a version of "Pardon Me" with nothing but piano accompaniment when we were in the studio back in 2000...our producer played it for me one day when he wasn't needed, and as soon as I heard it, I knew Chris was going to die a tragic death...about a year later, the hammer fell, and I will never forget the sound or the words of that song. Thanks for posting them.

One more from Radiohead
Radiohead - Pyramid Song
i jumped in the river what did i see?
black eyed angels swam with me
a moon full of stars and astral cars
all the figures i used to see
all my lovers were there with me
all my past and futures
and we all went to heaven in a little row boat
and there was nothing to fear nothing to doubt
i jumped into the river
black eyed angels swam with me
a moon full of stars and astral cars
all the figures i used to see
all my lovers were there with me
all my past and futures
and we all went to heaven in a little row boat
and there was nothing to fear nothing to doubt
there was nothing to fear nothing to doubt
there was nothing to fear nothing to doubt
there was nothing to fear nothing to doubt
 
Feels like home
Chantal Kreviazuk
Something in your eyes makes me want
to lose myself
Makes me want to lose myself
In your arms
There's something in your voice makes my
heart beat fast
Hope this feeling lasts
The rest of my life
If you knew how lonely my life has been
And how long I've felt so low
If you knew how I wanted someone to
come along
And change my life the way you've done
Feels like home to me
Feels like I'm all the way back where
I come from
Feels like home to me
Feels like I'm all the way back where I belong
A window breaks down a long dark street
And a siren wails in the night
But I'm alright cause I have you here with me
And I can almost see through the darkthere's light
If you knew how much this moment
means to me
And how long I've waited for your touch
If you knew how happy you are making me
I've never thought I'd love anyone so much
I am a very confused girl right now...
 
Finally Friday has arrived so I hope you all make it out. Go to the beach..go to the bar...get drunk...get stoned...see a movie. Just do something today that makes you happy. It's all about state of mind as the king parrothead says. Just to get you started here's some Jimmy Buffett. The live CD 'Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays' always brings back great memories. Enjoy.
CHANGES IN LATITUDES, CHANGES IN ATTITUDES
Jimmy Buffett
I took off for a weekend last month
Just to try and recall the whole year.
All of the faces and all of the places,
wonderin' where they all disappeared.
I didn't ponder the question too long;
I was hungrey and went out for a bite.
Ran into a chum with a bottle of rum,
and we wound up drinkin' all night.
It's those changes in latitudes,
changes in attitudes nothing remains quite the same.
With all of our running and all of our cunning,
If we couldn't laugh, we would all go insane.
These changes in latitudes, changes in attitudes;
Nothing remains quite the same.
Through all of the islands and all of the highlands,
If we couldn't laugh we would all go insane
Reading departure signs in some big airport
Reminds me of the places I've been.
Visions of good times that brought
so much pleasue
makes me want to go back again.
If it suddenly ended tomarrow,
I could somehow adjust to the fall.
Good times and riches and son of a bitches,
I've seen more than I can recall...(to chorus)
I think about Paris when I'm high on red wine;
I wish I could jump on a plane.
And so many nights I just dream of the ocean.
God, I wish I was sailin' again.
Oh, yesturdays are over my shoulder,
So I can't look back for too long.
There's just too much to see waiting in front of me,
and I know that I just can't go wrong
with these...(to chorus)
With all of our running and all of our cunning, If we couldn't laugh, we would all go insane.
Southern Cross - Crosby, Stills, & Nash
Got out of town on a boat goin' to southern islands
Sailing a reach before a followin' sea
She was makin' for the trades on the outside,
And the downhill run to Papeete Bay
Off the wind on this heading lie the Marquesas
We got eighty feet of the waterline, nicely making way
In a noisy bar in Avalon I tried to call you
But on a midnight watch I realized why twice you ran away
CHORUS:
Think about how many times I have fallen
Spirits are using me, larger voices callin'
What heaven brought you and me cannot be forgotten
I have been around the world
lookin' for that woman, girl
Who knows love can endure
And you know it will And you know it will
When you see the Southern Cross for the first time
You understand now why you came this way
'Cause the truth you might be runnin' from is so small
But it's as big as the promise, the promise of a coming day
So I'm sailing for tomorrow, my dreams are a dyin'
And my love is an anchor tied to you, tied with a silver chain
I have my ship and all her flags are a flyin'
She is all that I have left and music is her name
CHORUS
So we cheated and we lied and we tested
And we never failed to fail, it was the easiest thing to do
You will survive being bested
But somebody fine will come along make me forget about loving you
In the Southern Cross
His cover of the above CSN song rocks!
 
Spinkle,
I'm sorry to hear your loss of such a tremendous value
...but yes, that song also hold allot of meaning for me also, wirte me back with your SN or email and maybe we could talk.

[Ani Difranco Tangent] Does anyone else miss Andy and Sarah Lee as much as I do? [/Ani Difranco Tangent]
Old Ani + West Events Thread mentioning just how damn hard it is to remember people =
Names and Dates and Times
i know so many white people
i mean, where do i start?
the trouble with white people
is you can't tell them apart
i'm so bad with names and dates and times
but i'm big on faces
that is, except for mine
i believe you when you tell me
we've met before
this time you've got my interest
this time you've got the floor
why don't you go and tell me something
i don't already know
give me something to remember you by
when you go
i eat too much
i laugh too long
maybe i'll like too much of you
when i'm gone
let's go over to the window
and sit in the neon light
let's go out walking
you know, it's garbage night
let's go down to the east river
and throw something in
something we can't live without
and then let's start again
the more you talk
the more i get
the sense of something
that hasn't happened yet
the more you talk
the more i want to know
the way i'll remember you
when i go
i eat too much
i laugh too long
maybe i'll like too much of you
when i'm gone
i am so many white people
i mean where do i start
they've got lots of personalities
i just can't tell them apart
and i never remember anything
except for those things
which i never forget you know
there's no in between
i'm big on your face
yeah it's big in my mind
you're like the rest of the human race
you're one of a kind

311 - Amber
Brainstorm
Take me away from the norm
I got to tell you something
This phenomenon
I had to put it in a song
And it goes like
Whoa amber is the color of your energy
Whoa shades of gold displayed naturally
You ought to know what brings me here
You glide through my head blind to fear
And I know why
Whoa amber is the color of your energy
Whoa shades of gold displayed naturally
Whoa amber is the color of your energy
Whoa shades of gold displayed naturally
You live too far away
Your voice rings like a bell anyway
Don’t give up your independence
Unless it feels so right
Nothing good comes easily
Sometimes you gotta fight
Whoa amber is the color of your energy
Whoa shades of gold displayed naturally
Launched a thousand ships in my heart
So easy
Still it’s fine from afar
And you know that
Whoa brainstorm take me away from the norm
Whoa I got to tell you something
 
I Could Have Lied - RHCP
There must be something
In the way I feel
That she don't want me to feel
The stare she bares cut me
I don't care
You see so what if I bleed
I could never change
Just what I feel
My face will never show
What is not real
A mountain never seems to have
The need to speak
A look that shares so many seek
The sweetest feeling
I got from you
The things I said to you were true
I could never change
Just what I feel
My face will never show
What is not real
I could have lied I'm such a fool
My eyes could never never never (chorus)
Keep their cool
Showed her and I told her how
She struck me but I'm fucked up now
But now she's gone yes she's gone away
A soulful song
That would not stay
You see she hides 'cause she is scared
But I don't care
I won't be spared
 
Shrug- Ani DiFranco
whats with that halo
hovering
above that thick skull serenading
if i do say so
i think you're covering
of course there was nothing
could have prepared me for the side effect
of this dirty drug
the way you punish me
when you shrug
whats with that phone call baby?
its like you're trying
just to crush me
do you feel stronger
each time you push me dear?
did you tell your mom
you carpet bombed
before you left here?
and is it just the side effect of this dirty drug
that tempts you to punish me
the more i shrug
are you at home now
with your kitty cats
are you just at home now
with the way that you act?
do you split the rent there
with all your secrets
or do you just pretend
to all your friends
they're uninvited guests?
do you want to hold me tightly?
can you still dispell me;
sweep me neatly under the rug
and does your conscience ever mention
the way that you treat me
or do you just fend it off
with a...
Used to You- Ani
i'm still here because i got nothing else to do
you're an asshole but i'm getting used to you
i like the fact that you talk incessantly
i gotta thing for assholes
who tell good stories
i think drinking is the only thing that you do right
you're gonna self destruct
i think thats what i like
you like me so you try and make me feel like shit
i think its kinda funny
yeah, i kinda enjoy it
if you're gonna do it, over do it
thats how you know you're alive
go ahead, take yourself a coma nap, babe
take a puddle dive.
you said, this is my bedroom window
you said, this is my view
you said, lie down here with me
and see the things that i do
like you were trying to tell me something about the way you live
like you would give me something
if you had something to give
and for all your talk you don't say much thats real
i think i know more than you about the way you feel
i understand your anger
and your apathy
i think if i was you
you're who i'd be.
i'm still here cuz i got nothing else to do
you're an asshole but i'm getting used to you.
i could love you, yeah
ive entertained the thought
but i could never like you
so i guess i'd better not.
 
EVERY Cat Stevens song is beautiful, and he is never negitive...I've learned much more of this artist through my fiancee...these are two songs that have much meaning for us
Father and Son
Father
It's not time to make a change,
Just relax, take it easy.
You're still young, that's your fault,
There's so much you have to know.
Find a girl, settle down,
If you want you can marry.
Look at me, I am old, but I'm happy.
I was once like you are now, and I know that it's not easy,
To be calm when you've found something going on.
But take your time, think a lot,
Why, think of everything you've got.
For you will still be here tomorrow, but your dreams may not.
Son
How can I try to explain, when I do he turns away again.
It's always been the same, same old story.
From the moment I could talk I was ordered to listen.
Now there's a way and I know that I have to go away.
I know I have to go.
Father
It's not time to make a change,
Just sit down, take it slowly.
You're still young, that's your fault,
There's so much you have to go through.
Find a girl, settle down,
if you want you can marry.
Look at me, I am old, but I'm happy.
Son
All the times that I cried, keeping all the things I knew inside,
It's hard, but it's harder to ignore it.
If they were right, I'd agree, but it's them you know not me.
Now there's a way and I know that I have to go away.
I know I have to go.
Trouble
Trouble
Oh trouble set me free
I have seen your face
And it's too much too much for me
Trouble
Oh trouble can't you see
You're eating my heart away
And there's nothing much left of me
I've drunk your wine
You have made your world mine
So won't you be fair
So won't you be fair
I don't want no more of you
So won't you be kind to me
Just let me go where
I'll have to go there
Trouble
Oh trouble move away
I have seen your face
and it's too much for me today
Trouble
Oh trouble can't you see
You have made me a wreck
Now won't you leave me in my misery
I've seen your eyes
and I can see death's disguise
Hangin' on me
Hangin' on me
I'm beat, I'm torn
Shattered and tossed and worn
Too shocking to see
Too shocking to see
Trouble
Oh trouble move from me
I have paid my debt
Now won't you leave me in my misery
Trouble
Oh trouble please be kind
I don't want no fight
And I haven't got a lot of time
 
The Verve
A Northern Soul (1995)
"History"
I wander lonely streets
Behind where the old Thames does flow
And in every face I meet
Reminds me of what I have run from
In every man, in every hand
In every kiss, you understand
That living is for other men
I hope you two will understand
I've got to tell you my tale
Of how I loved and how I failed
I hope you understand
I've got to tell you my tale
Of how I loved and how I failed
I hope you understand
These feelings should not be in the man
In every child, in every eye
In every sky, above my head
I hope that I know
So come with me in bed
Because it's you and me, we're history
There ain't nothing left to say
When I will get you alone
Maybe we could find a room
Where we could see what we should do
Maybe you know it's true
Living with me is like keeping a fool
In every man, in every hand
In every kiss, you understand
That living is for other men
I hope you know that I am me so come on
I'm thinking about history
And I'm living for history
And I think you know about me
Cause I am
And one and one is two
But three is company
When you're thinking about the things you do
And you're thinking about the things you do
I want to tell you my tale
How I fell in love and jumped out on my bail
I hope you understand there's more in a smile than in a hand
In every sky, in every kiss
There's something that I might have missed
Why am I going to
A place that now belongs to you
But you were weak and so was I
Let's pick it up, let's even try
To live today, so why not smile
Don't dream away your life 'Cause it is mine
Is that a crime (repeat) this life is mine
The bed ain't made but it's filled full of hope
I've got a skin full of dope
 
Satan, you know where I lie
Gently I go into that good night
All our lives get complicated
Search for pleasures overrated
Never armed our souls
For what the future would hold
When we were innocent
Angels lend me your might
Forfeit all my lives to
Get just one right
All those colors long since faded
All our smiles all confiscated
Never were we told
We'd be bought and sold
When we were innocent
This prayer is for me tonight
This far down that line and
Still ain't got it right
And while confessions not yet stated
Our next sin is contemplated
Never did we know
What the future would hold
Or that we'd be
Bought and sold
We were innocent
 
Furnace You amaze me with your taste in music. WOW i love all of those radiohead songs. Here is one that pretty much sums up mu day
Sulk
You bite through the big wall, the big wall bites back
You just sit there and sulk, sit there and bawl
You are so pretty when you're on your knees
Disinfected, eager to please
Sometimes you sulk, sometimes you burn
God rest your soul
When the loving comes and we've already gone
Just like your dad, you'll never change
Each time it comes it eats me alive
I try to behave but it eats me alive
So I declare a holiday
Fall asleep, Drift away
Sometimes you sulk, sometimes you burn
God rest your soul
When the loving comes and we've already gone
Just like your dad, you'll never change
 
Stay with me just for today,
Let your soul come and rest for a minute now,
Share your mind if you have some time, I would love to sit and talk to you.
I will wait if you ask me to but I won't stay here forever now.
I know your heart could keep me warm if you let me stay.
I feel that your eyes won't open
and these dreams, my heart I can't decieve them.
Maybe the moon will come down and save me
Maybe your eyes will stop me from falling
Oh, I'm drowning, yeah
What can I say? What can I do? Is there anyway to get through to you.
I'll put myself into your shoes and I'll walk around these streets of yours.
It's cold outside where you stay but my heart is not far away.
So take a breath and close your eyes. I want to hold you.
I feel that your eyes won't open
and these dreams, my heart I can't decieve them.
Maybe the moon will come down and save me
Maybe your eyes will stop me from falling
Oh, I'm drowning, yeah
-AK1200, Drowning
 
Ouhhh mannn! Too many good fuckin songs... right now I'm jammin to classic James Taylor!
Fire and Rain
Just yesterday morning they let me know you were gone
Susanne the plans they made put an end to you
I walked out this morning and I wrote down this song
I just can't remember who to send it to
I've seen fire and I've seen rain
I've seen sunny days that I thought would never end
I've seen lonely times when I could not find a friend
But I always thought that I'd see you again
Won't you look down upon me, Jesus
You've got to help me make a stand
You've just got to see me through another day
My body's aching and my time is at hand
And I won't make it any other way
Oh, I've seen fire and I've seen rain
I've seen sunny days that I thought would never end
I've seen lonely times when I could not find a friend
But I always thought that I'd see you again
Been walking my mind to an easy time my back turned towards the sun
Lord knows when the cold wind blows it'll turn your head around
Well, there's hours of time on the telephone line to talk about things to come
Sweet dreams and flying machines in pieces on the ground
Oh, I've seen fire and I've seen rain
I've seen sunny days that I thought would never end
I've seen lonely times when I could not find a friend
But I always thought that I'd see you, baby, one more time again, now
Thought I'd see you one more time again
There's just a few things coming my way this time around, now
Thought I'd see you, thought I'd see you fire and rain, now
<tear>
 
SOUNDGARDEN:
ROOM A THOUSAND YEARS WIDE
Listen, hear, he is inside
One who lives while others lie
I close my eyes and walk a thousand years
A thousand years that aren't mine
It seems he's near me as I walk
One who loved what love denied
He lives these years that I walk blind
All these years cannot be mine
Tomorrow begat tomorrow
Begat tomorrow
Begat tomorrow
A thousand doors a thousand lies
Rooms a thousand years wide
He walks in the cold sun and wind
All these years will not begin
Tomorrow begat tomorrow
Begat tomorrow
Begat tomorrow
 
Morrisey cancelled his gig in my town. Boo-urns to him
The Smiths - Bigmouth strikes again
Sweetness, sweetness I was only joking
when I said I'd like to smash every tooth
in your head
Sweetness,sweetness I was only joking
when I said by rights you should be
bludgeoned in your bed
and now I know how Joan of Arc felt
now I know how Joan of Arc felt
as the flames rose to her roman nose
and her Walkman started to melt
Bigmouth, bigmouth
bigmouth strikes again
and I've got no right to take my place
with the human race
Bigmouth, bigmouth
bigmouth strikes again
and I've got no right to take my place
with the human race
and now I know how Joan of Arc felt
now I know how Joan of Arc felt
as the flames rose to her roman nose
and her hearing aid started to melt
Bigmouth, bigmouth
bigmouth strikes again
and I've got no right to take my place
with the human race
 
Furnace -- you inspired me on this one...good Smiths pick, too :)
Ms.Red -- email me at the address in my profile if you care to :)
PACKT LIKE SARDINES IN A CRUSHED TIN BOX (3:57)
After years of waiting nothing came
As your life flashed before your eyes
You realize
I'm a reasonable man
Get off, get off, get off my case
I'm a reasonable man
Get off my case
After years of waiting
After years of waiting nothing came
And you realize you're looking, looking in the wrong place
I'm a reasonable man
Get off my case
I'm a reasonable man
Get off my case
I'm a reasonable man
Get off my case
After years of waiting
You're a reasonable man
Get off our case
I'm a reasonable man
Get off my case
I'm a reasonable man
Get off my case
I'm a reasonable man,
Get off my case
 
Tears For Fears - Mad World
Beautifully covered by Gary Jules
"Mad World"
All around me are familiar faces
Worn out places, worn out faces
Bright and early for their daily races
Going nowhere, going nowhere
And their tears are filling up their glasses
No expression, no expression
Hide my head I want to drown my sorrow
No tommorow, no tommorow
And I find it kind of funny
I find it kind of sad
The dreams in which I'm dying
Are the best I've ever had
I find it hard to tell you
'Cos I find it hard to take
When people run in circles
It's a very, very
Mad World
Children waiting for the day they feel good
Happy Birthday, Happy Birthday
Made to feel the way that every child should
Sit and listen, sit and listen
Went to school and I was very nervous
No one knew me, no one knew me
Hello teacher tell me what's my lesson
Look right through me, look right through me
