What Song fits your current mood vs Everything's better with a soundtrack



Joy Division - 24 Hours
So this is permanence, love's shattered pride.
What once was innocence, turned on its side.
A cloud hangs over me, marks every move,
Deep in the memory, of what once was love.

Oh how I realised how I wanted time,
Put into perspective, tried so hard to find,
Just for one moment, thought I'd found my way.
Destiny unfolded, I watched it slip away.

Excessive flashpoints, beyond all reach,
Solitary demands for all I'd like to keep.
Let's take a ride out, see what we can find,
A valueless collection of hopes and past desires.

I never realised the lengths I'd have to go,
All the darkest corners of a sense I didn't know.
Just for one moment, I heard somebody call,
Looked beyond the day in hand, there's nothing there at all.

Now that I've realised how it's all gone wrong,
Gotta find some therapy, this treatment takes too long.
Deep in the heart of where sympathy held sway,
Gotta find my destiny, before it gets too late.




Nick Drake - Parasite
Lifting the mask from a local clown, feeling down like him
Seeing the light in a station bar and traveling far in sin
Sailing downstairs to the northern line, watching the shine of his shoes
Hearing the trials of the people there, who's to care if they lose?

Take a look, you may see me on the ground
For I am the parasite of this town

Dancing a jig in a church with chimes, a sign of the times today
Hearing no bell from a steeple tall, people all in dismay
Falling so far on a silver spoon, making the moon for fun
Changing a robe for a size too small, people all get hung

Take a look, you might see me coming through
For I am the parasite who travels two-by-two

I'm lifting the mask from a local clown, feeling down like him
And I'm seeing the light in a station bar and traveling far in sin
And I'm sailing downstairs to the northern line, watching the shine of his shoes
And hearing the trials of the people there, who's to care if they lose?

Take a look, you might see me on the ground
For I am the parasite of this town
Take a look, you may see me in the dirt
For I am the parasite who hangs from your skirt

When the government is both God and the murderer that is absolutely true.
 
Oh how I love this duo

Simon & Garfunkel - I Am A Rock



A winter's day
In a deep and dark December;
I am alone,
Gazing from my window to the streets below
On a freshly fallen silent shroud of snow.
I am a rock,
I am an island.

I've built walls,
A fortress deep and mighty,
That none may penetrate.
I have no need of friendship; friendship causes pain.
It's laughter and it's loving I disdain.
I am a rock,
I am an island.

Don't talk of love,
But I've heard the words before;
It's sleeping in my memory.
I won't disturb the slumber of feelings that have died.
If I never loved I never would have cried.
I am a rock,
I am an island.

I have my books
And my poetry to protect me;
I am shielded in my armor,
Hiding in my room, safe within my womb.
I touch no one and no one touches me.
I am a rock,
I am an island.

And a rock feels no pain;
And an island never cries.
 
I feel like I'm getting old when I listen to this sort of music. I'm more into lyrics and melody..
 
^ Been feeling ANCIENT too recently, Erikman - you're not alone in that buddy - celebrate the wrinkly wisdom ! ;)

I rem listenng to this as a tenn/twenty something and it always pops- up. that void - that feeilng of emptiness; that horrible seemingly -'truth'- breaking of ego.

Just glad there's a tune to honour that very, neglected part of being human. Exposing the intense vulnerability that is so tailored to a subjective self - very frightening, awe inspiring and an extremely good teacher - despite the emotional, pain of it.
Heart-break really brings out your metal(pun intended) and shows us how strong we are (albeit, it feels rotten - there is no true happiness without knowledge of the dark sadness). <3

Then there's the confusion - the horrible and beautiful confusion.



Then, the reformation - back to centre.

<3 Simon and Garfunkel - I Am A Rock, great song :)




All my life they let me know
How far I would not go
But inside the beast still grows waiting
Chewing through the ropes

Who are you to change this world?
Silly Boy!
No one needs to hear your words.
Let it go.

Carnivore! Carnivore!
Won't you come digest me?
Take away everything I am.
Bring it to an end.
Carnivore! Carnivore!
Could you come and change me?
Take away everything I am.
Everything I am.

I will hide myself below
I'll be what you wanted
Kept inside I won't let go
'Till I burn beyond control

Who are you to change this world?
Silly Boy!
No one needs to hear your words.
Let it go.

Carnivore! Carnivore!
Won't you come digest me?
Take away everything I am.
Bring it to an end.
Make me fall. Make me bleed.
Go ahead and change me?
Take away everything I am.
Everything I am.

Never enough
(Who I am is not good enough)
Never enough
(Who I am)

Carnivore! Carnivore!
Won't you come digest me?
Take away everything I am.
Bring it to an end.
Carnivore! Carnivore!
Could you come and change me?
Take away everything I am.
Everything I am.




Take a breath, hold it in
Start a fight, you won't win
Had enough, let's begin
Never mind, I don't care

All in all you're no good
You don't cry like you should
Let it go if you could
When love dies in the end

So I'll find what lies beneath your sick twisted smile
As I lay underneath your cold jaded eyes
Now you turn the tide on me 'cause you're so unkind
I will always be here for the rest of my life

Here we go, does it hurt?
Say goodbye to this world
I will not be undone
Come to life, it gets worse

All in all you're no good

You don't cry like you should
I'll be gone when you fall
Your sad life says it all

So I'll find what lies beneath your sick twisted smile
As I lay underneath your cold jaded eyes
Now you turn the tide on me 'cause you're so unkind
I will always be here for the rest of my life

Don't carry me under
You're the devil in disguise
God sing for the hopeless
I'm the one you left behind

So I'll find what lies beneath your sick twisted smile
As I lay underneath your cold jaded eyes
Now you turn the tide on me 'cause you're so unkind
I will always be here for the rest of my life[/]
 


I knew this girl when I was young
She took her spikes from everyone
One night she swallowed up the lake
That's how you sing amazing grace
Amazing grace
Amazing grace
It sounds like razors in my ears
That bell's been ringing now for years
Someday I'll give it all away
That's how you sing amazing grace
Oh, can you hear that sweet sweet sound
Yeah, I was lost but now I'm found
Sometimes there's nothing left to save
That's how you sing amazing grace
Amazing grace
That's how you sing amazing grace

 


Monster Movie - Bored Beyond Oblivion (I am most of the time)

Outside of the strip mall
I feel confused
It's enough
I see all the fast lights
And the streets are a glow
I know confusion

Tell me what I wanna know
Bored beyond oblivion
Nothing I can do
Bored beyond oblivion
Tell me what to do
Bored beyond oblivion

It never ends
It's enough
Engulfed by displacement
I feel bemused
It's enough
Watching on the stable
Where the screams are a glow
I know confusion

Tell me what I wanna know
Bored beyond oblivion
Nothing I can do
Bored beyond oblivion
Tell me what to do
Bored beyond oblivion
Nothing I can do



There is no ghost
left to embrace
There's just a dream
and morning has passed
although I try to keep it safe

There is no heaven
there are just stars
that I try to catch
as they fall past
I try to crash them
into my heart

All the roads across have been passed
Everyone that's left is a ghost to me now, to me now
I'll find you somehow

There is no angel
holding my hands
It's just a memory
that still stands
Just like a castle
upon sinking sands

There is no order
there are no lines
That's had suspended
between points in time
That's just a feeling
of being left behind

All the roads across have been passed
And everyone that's left is a ghost to me now, to me now
I'll find you somehow

All the roads across have been passed
All everyone that's left is a ghost to me now, to me now
I'll find you somehow

This whole album fits my mood or did a few minutes ago and has most of the time I have been awake the last couple of days.
 
JOHN CALE - GIDEON'S BIBLE



Holding on, with both eyes, to things that don't exist
Peering through the cutting wrist, at grand old mother greedy
Rolling out the cotton ship, upon the carpet pillow
Throttling children callously, a messy day with Clancy

Gideon lied and Gideon died
The force of China felt
Gideon smiled as Gideon died
The thought of China held.

Rolling out the golden robes and other foreign language
Stretching out the verbs and nouns together in the greeting
Some that felt the blade often, some deep confused emotion
Struck eye first against the wall of China under fire.

Gideon lied and Gideon died
The force of China felt
Gideon smiled as Gideon died
The thought of China held.
