Don't Dream It's Over ~ Crowded House There is freedom within, there is freedom without Try to catch the deluge in a paper cup There's a battle ahead, many battles are lost But you'll never see the end of the road While you're traveling with me
Hey now, hey now Don't dream it's over Hey now, hey now When the world comes in They come, they come To build a wall between us We know they won't win Now I'm towing my car, there's a hole in the roof My possessions are causing me suspicion but there's no proof In the paper today tales of war and of waste But you turn right over to the T.V. page Now I'm walking again to the beat of a drum And I'm counting the steps to the door of your heart Only shadows ahead barely clearing the roof Get to know the feeling of liberation and relief Hey now, hey now Don't dream it's over Hey now, hey now When the world comes in They come, they come To build a wall between us You know that they won't win Don't ever let them win original song: http://youtube.com/watch?v=of8TRBdCsKA live: http://youtube.com/watch?v=pH_O7K8SagY IP: Logged |

The EverthereAll my saints have taken bribes Singing going going gone All the angels taken dives Leaving you the only one If I loose a sequin here and there More salt than pepper in my hair Can I rely on you When all the songs are through To be for me the everthere
Slide into another book Now and then laugh out loud Throw that very dirty look That says OK Stop staring at me now If I loose the sequence here and there Less derring do than quiet care Can I rely on you For a good talking to To be for me the everthere If I loose a sequin here and there And take my time on every stair Can I rely on you When this whole thing is through To be for me the everthere. - Elbow IP: Logged |

Steady On - Shawn ColvinChina gets broken And it will never be the same Boats on the ocean Find their way back again I am weaving Like a drunkard Like a balloon up in the air I am needing a puncture and someone To point me somewhere I'm gonna keep my head on straight I just hope it's not too late Open up the gate I go straight on, steady on Steady on!
I was feeling imploded A wooden smile, a wooden heart The things exploded Like rockets in the dark Now I'm pulling out splinters And I'm off to hibernate somewhere For the nuclear winter Of another love affair "Cause he seemed like a miracle I ate it up like cereal But it was something like shrapnel
Steady On!
It's like ten miles of a two-lane On a South Dakota wheat plain In the middle of a hard rain A slow boat or a fast train I am gonna keep my head on straight I'm gonna keep my head on straight Steady on! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a-qOdTemDUA

SHAWN COLVIN Shotgun Down The Avalanche I'm riding shotgun down the avalanche Tumbling and falling down the avalanche
So be quiet tonight the stars shine bright On this mountain of new fallen snow But I will raise up my voice into the void You have left me nowhere to go I love you so much and it's so bizarre A mystery that goes on and on and on This is the best thing and the very most hard And we don't get along After countless appeals we keep spinning our wheels On this mountain of new fallen snow So I let go the catch and we are over the edge You have left me nowhere to go I'm riding shotgun down the avalanche Sometimes you make me lose my will to live And just become a beacon for your soul But the past is stronger than my will to forgive Forgive you or myself, I don't know I'm riding shotgun down the avalanche Tumbling and falling down the avalanche So be quiet tonight be sure to step lightly On this mountain of new fallen snow But I will raise up my voice into the void You have left me nowhere to go I'm riding shotgun down the avalanche

Neutral Milk Hotel "Bucket" Shadows on my wall They creep and crawl in burning white They dream of waterfalls Catching slow bright streams of light.
And life can be so weird Bucket full of fear But it's alright I'm on an isle And I've still got time to fly away Shadows in my dreams They're painting scenes of time with you I'm hoping all these things and the strength they bring will pull me through And life can be so weird Bucket full of fear But it's alright I'm on an isle And I've still got time to fly away. http://youtube.com/watch?v=NP_K7PiyBSI

Neutral Milk Hotel "Everything Is" Growing sleepy as the rain falls As children draped in flowers form a chain They sing a song with jelly jars and bird calls As night falls into dust and it's day again
I'm not afraid of a love parade in my daydream Old men with kazoos and beating drums But I awake and I see the streets are ice cream It's just you and me and oh dear, our life has just begun Everything is beautiful here It's spinning circles around my ears I'm finally breaking free from fear And it's fading Oh beautiful smiles, won't you stay awhile We could close the door and sleep all day It's a September sky with pretty pictures in my mind That's lost its feeling of so afraid Everything is beautiful here It's spinning circles around my ears I'm finally breaking free from fear And it's fading Grown sleepy now as the rain falls As children draped in flowers form a chain They sing a song with jelly jars and bird calls As night falls into dust and it's day again Everything is beautiful here It's spinning circles around my ears I'm finally breaking free from fear And it's fading IP: Logged |

Baby close that suitcase you've been packin' Just sit down and talk to me a while I know you tried to tell me what was lackin' But I guess I must have missed it by a mile Well this time girl I swear to you I'll listen Help me understand where I went wrong It's hard to find myself in this position Prayin' I'll go crazy once your goneHelp me hold on...to what we had Once our love was strong, it can be again You said it takes two, to make love last You were right all along so help me hold on What have I got do to make it better? What have I got to do to make you see That even though I promised you forever I never knew how hard that would be I realize I took your love for granted But I've learned that love worth havin' don't come free And I'll pay any price it takes to keep you Satisfied and stayin here with me... Help me hold on...to what we had Once our love was strong, it can be again You said it takes two, to make love last You were right all along so help me hold on Help me hold on...to what we had Once our love was strong, it can be again You said it takes two, to make love last You were right all along so help me hold on You were right all along So help me hold on (Travis Tritt/Pat Terry) Someone sang this at karaoke last night and it was beautiful.

a serious favorite right here:Down To You Everything comes and goes Marked by lovers and styles of clothes Things that you held high And told yourself were true Lost or changing as the days come down to you Down to you Constant stranger You’re a kind person You’re a cold person too It’s down to you It all comes down to you. You go down to the pick up station Craving warmth and beauty You settle for less than fascination A few drinks later you’re not so choosy When the closing lights strip off the shadows On this strange new flesh you’ve found Clutching the night to you like a fig leaf You hurry To the blackness And the blankets To lay down an impression And your loneliness In the morning there are lovers in the street They look so high You brush against a stranger And you both apologize Old friends seem indifferent You must have brought that on Old bonds have broken down Love is gone Ooh, love is gone Written on your spirit this sad song Love is gone Everything comes and goes Pleasure moves on too early And trouble leaves too slow Just when you’re thinking You’ve finally got it made Bad news comes knocking At your garden gate Knocking for you Constant stranger You’re a brute-you’re an angel You can crawl-you can fly too It’s down to you It all comes down to you _________________________________________ i love her IP: Logged |

"Present Tense" by Pearl JamDo you see the way that tree bends? Does it inspire? Leanin' out to catch the sun's ray A lesson to be applied Are you getting something out of this? All encompassing trip You can spend your time alone Redigesting past regrets, Oh Or you can, come to terms and realize You're the only one who cannot forgive yourself, Oh Makes much more sense to live in the present tense Have you ideas on how this life ends? Checked your hands and studied the lines? Have you the belief that the road ahead Ascends off into the light? Seems that needlessly it's gettin' harder To find an approach and a way to live Are we gettin' something out of this All encompassing trip You can spend your time alone Redigesting past regrets, Oh Or you can come to terms and realize You're the only one who cannot forgive yourself, Oh Ah, makes much more sense to live in the present tense YouTube IP: Logged |

Radiohead - Pyramid SongI jumped in the river and what did I see? Black-eyed angels swam with me A moon full of stars and astral cars All the things 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 There was nothing to fear and nothing to doubt I jumped into the river Black-eyed angels swam with me A moon full of stars and astral cars And all the things 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 There was nothing to fear and nothing to doubt There was nothing to fear and nothing to doubt There was nothing to fear and nothing to doubt IP: Logged |

Darkness at the break of noon Shadows even the silver spoon The handmade blade, the child's balloon Eclipses both the sun and moon To understand you know too soon There is no sense in trying.Pointed threats, they bluff with scorn Suicide remarks are torn From the fools gold mouthpiece The hollow horn plays wasted words Proved to warn That he not busy being born Is busy dying. Temptation's page flies out the door You follow, find yourself at war Watch waterfalls of pity roar You feel to moan but unlike before You discover That you'd just be One more person crying. So don't fear if you hear A foreign sound to you ear It's alright, Ma, I'm only sighing. As some warn victory, some downfall Private reasons great or small Can be seen in the eyes of those that call To make all that should be killed to crawl While others say don't hate nothing at all Except hatred. Disillusioned words like bullets bark As human gods aim for their marks Made everything from toy guns that sparks To flesh-colored Christs that glow in the dark It's easy to see without looking too far That not much Is really sacred. While preachers preach of evil fates Teachers teach that knowledge waits Can lead to hundred-dollar plates Goodness hides behind its gates But even the President of the United States Sometimes must have To stand naked. An' though the rules of the road have been lodged It's only people's games that you got to dodge And it's alright, Ma, I can make it. Advertising signs that con you Into thinking you're the one That can do what's never been done That can win what's never been won Meantime life outside goes on All around you. You loose yourself, you reappear You suddenly find you got nothing to fear Alone you stand without nobody near When a trembling distant voice, unclear Startles your sleeping ears to hear That somebody thinks They really found you. A question in your nerves is lit Yet you know there is no answer fit to satisfy Insure you not to quit To keep it in your mind and not forget That it is not he or she or them or it That you belong to. Although the masters make the rules For the wise men and the fools I got nothing, Ma, to live up to. For them that must obey authority That they do not respect in any degree Who despite their jobs, their destinies Speak jealously of them that are free Cultivate their flowers to be Nothing more than something They invest in. While some on principles baptized To strict party platforms ties Social clubs in drag disguise Outsiders they can freely criticize Tell nothing except who to idolize And then say God Bless him. While one who sings with his tongue on fire Gargles in the rat race choir Bent out of shape from society's pliers Cares not to come up any higher But rather get you down in the hole That he's in. But I mean no harm nor put fault On anyone that lives in a vault But it's alright, Ma, if I can't please him. Old lady judges, watch people in pairs Limited in sex, they dare To push fake morals, insult and stare While money doesn't talk, it swears Obscenity, who really cares Propaganda, all is phony. While them that defend what they cannot see With a killer's pride, security It blows the minds most bitterly For them that think death's honesty Won't fall upon them naturally Life sometimes Must get lonely. My eyes collide head-on with stuffed graveyards False gods, I scuff At pettiness which plays so rough Walk upside-down inside handcuffs Kick my legs to crash it off Say okay, I have had enough What else can you show me ? And if my thought-dreams could been seen They'd probably put my head in a guillotine But it's alright, Ma, it's life, and life only. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2bjqYPH7rAo ______________________________ such soulful eyes http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ixjJGUI4JZ4 IP: Logged |

Great picks, 26!"Dramamine" by Modest Mouse Travelling swallowing Dramamine Feeling spaced breathing out listerine I'd said what I'd said that I'd tell ya And that you'd killed the better part of me If you could just milk it for everything I've said what I'd said and you know what I mean But I still can't focus on anything We kiss on the mouth but still cough down our sleeves Travelling swallowing dramamine Look at your face like you're killed in a dream And you think you've figured out everything I think I know my geography pretty damn well You say what you need so you'll get more If you could just milk it for everything I've said what I said and you know what I mean But I can't still focus on anything video IP: Logged |

Warning Sign A warning sign I missed the good part then I realized That I started looking and the bubble burst That I started looking for excuses
Come on in I've got to tell you what a state I'm in I've got to tell you in my loudest tones That I started looking for a warning sign When the truth is I miss you Yeah the truth is That I miss you so A warning sign You came back to haunt me and I realized That you were an island and I passed you by You were an island to discover Come on in I've got to tell you what a state I'm in I've got to tell you in my loudest tones That I started looking for a warning sign And the truth is I miss you Yeah the truth is I miss you so And I'm tired I should not have let you go So I crawl back into your open arms Yes I crawl back into your open arms And I crawl back into your open arms Yes I crawl back into your open arms ] http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MGSbPdWMC7k

hm...going through the albums of my mind...here's one! Airport scurry flurry faces Parade of passers by People going many places With a smile or just a sigh Waiting waiting pass the time Another cigarette Get in line - gate thirty-nine The time is not here yet (end) Why try? i know why The feeling inside me says it's time i was gone Clear head, new life ahead I want to be king now not just one more pawn Fly by night, away from here Change my life again Fly by night goodbye my dear My ship isn't coming and i just can't pretend Moon rise, thoughtful eyes Staring back at me from the window beside No fright or hindsight Leaving behind that empty feeling inside Start a new chapter Find what i'm after It's changing every day The change of a season Is enough of a reason To want to get away Quiet and pensive My thoughts apprehensive The hours drift away Leaving my homeland Playing a lone hand My life begins today Rush - Fly By Night IP: Logged |

Every night I hope and pray A dream lover will come my way A girl to hold in my arms And know the magic of her charms 'cause I want (yeah-yeah yeah) a girl (yeah-yeah yeah) to call (yeah-yeah yeah) my own (yeah-yeah) I want a dream lover so I don't have to dream alone Dream lover, where are you With a love, oh, so true? And a hand that I can hold, To feel you near as I grow old? 'cause I want (yeah-yeah yeah) A girl (yeah-yeah yeah) To call (yeah-yeah yeah) My own (yeah-yeah) I want a dream lover so I don't have to dream alone
Someday, I don't know how, I hope she'll hear my plea Some way, I don't know how, She'll bring her love to me
Dream lover, until then, I'll go to sleep and dream again That's the only thing to do, Till all my lover's dreams come true 'Cause I want (yeah-yeah yeah) A girl (yeah-yeah yeah) To call (yeah-yeah yeah) My own (yeah-yeah) I want a dream lover so I don't have to dream alone Dream lover, until then, I'll go to sleep and dream again That's the only thing to do, Till all my lover's dreams come true 'cause I want (yeah-yeah yeah) A girl (yeah-yeah yeah) To call (yeah-yeah yeah) My own (yeah-yeah) I want a dream lover so I don't have to dream alone Please don't make me dream alone I beg you don't make me dream alone No, I don't wanna dream alone ( FADE ) Though you vacation in Hawaii Or go to Switzerland to ski When you're scanning the snow covered mountain Or fanning yourself by the sea Don't dream of anybody but me Though you may fly the Scottish Highlands Or take a trip to some isle near Napoli When you're whistling "The Campbells Are Coming" Or humming "The Isle Of Capri" Don't dream of anybody but me In a cafe on the Rhine Any place along the line I'll forgive you when a stranger puts your little heart in danger If his face resembles mine When a guy at a mike in a nightclub Begins bellowing something off-key Won't even mind if suddenly he reminds you of me No matter where you care to roam Doesn't even matter whom you choose to see Whenever your head hits that pillow Whatever the hour may be Don't dream of anybody but me Don't dream of anybody but me Don't dream of anybody but me Ah, … be mad little girl But not at me Be mad little girl But try to see. That I can’t let you stay a minute more Although you know that I adore you so Still ya bettah go.
And, be mad little girl But not at me. Ah, … be upset little girl But dry your eyes Be upset little girl But realize. That there’s nothin’ that I’d rather do Than stay here and make love to you the whole night long Still I know it’s wrong. So, be mad little girl But not at me. Ah, ... not at me ... because I’m not the guy who made the laws Tellin’ us what we got to do And tellin’ us what not to do And, baby, I love you. Be mad little girl Be mad and blue Be mad little girl ‘cause I am too. But the more you stay the more I find That makes me wanna change my mind It’s hard to fight, so please say, "Good-night." And, be mad little girl But not at me. Ah, … not at me … Don’t be mad at me … Not mad at me … Somewhere beyond the sea somewhere waiting for me my lover stands on golden sands and watches the ships that go sailin
Somewhere beyond the sea she's there watching for me If I could fly like birds on high then straight to her arms I'd go sailin' It's far beyond the stars it's near beyond the moon I know beyond a doubt my heart will lead me there soon We'll meet beyond the shore we'll kiss just as before Happy we'll be beyond the sea and never again I'll go sailin' I know beyond a doubt my heart will lead me there soon We'll meet (I know we'll meet) beyond the shore We'll kiss just as before Happy we'll be beyond the sea and never again I'll go sailin' no more sailin' so long sailin' bye bye sailin'... I watched "Beyond the Sea" with Kevin Spacey tonight. All lyrics: Bobby Darin

Mono ~ Life in mono (love this album - Formica Blues)The stranger sang a theme, From someone else's dream The leaves began to fall And no one spoke at all But I can't seem to recall When you came along Ingenue, Ingenue, I just don't know what to do The tree-lined avenue Begins to fade from view Drowning past regrets In tea and cigarettes But I can't seem to forget When you came along Ingenue, Ingenue, I just don't know what to do Ingenue, I just don't know what to do X5 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j07yxnJY9rc IP: Logged |

I am a lonesome hobo Without family or friends, Where another man's life might begin, That's exactly where mine ends. I have tried my hand at bribery, Blackmail and deceit, And I've served time for ev'rything 'Cept beggin' on the street. Well, once I was rather prosperous, There was nothing I did lack. I had fourteen-karat gold in my mouth And silk upon my back. But I did not trust my brother, I carried him to blame, Which led me to my fatal doom, To wander off in shame. Kind ladies and kind gentlemen, Soon I will be gone, But let me just warn you all, Before I do pass on; Stay free from petty jealousies, Live by no man's code, And hold your judgment for yourself Lest you wind up on this road. - Bob Dylan
