Oh hey, did you know that I can dance? Could we talk for awhile? Well, I think you're smart, You sweet thing, Tell me your sign, I'm dying here Ah Hoo …. Got you where I want you, again Got you where I want you, where I want you, I want you [This next part of the song sucks so hard.] Suffer, Suffer, You know you get no rubber, Gone with a pretty girl Changing me like no other. Suffer, Suffer, You don’t get no rubber, Would you like a minute to Put that thing on your lover? [then it gets good again] Ah .. I think you’re smart, you sweet thing Tell me your name, I’m dying here Ah Hoo … [Sucky.] Suffer, Suffer, You know you get no rubber, Gone with a pretty girl Changing me like no other.

Theres a world where I can go and tell my secrets to In my room, in my room In this world I lock out all my worries and my fears In my room, in my roomDo my dreaming and my scheming Lie awake and pray Do my crying and my sighing Laugh at yesterday Now its dark and Im alone But I wont be afraid In my room, in my room In my room, in my room In my room, in my room ~ brian wilson

I was looking up the lyrics to Machine Head by Bush and got a band named Machine Head so checked the lyrics out briefly. Men are such cry babies.2. Beautiful Mourning [Music: Flynn / Demmel, Lyrics: Flynn] **** you all! My redemption is knowing This will be over My aggression, I fear I�ve lost control Who is this man I stare? Mirror reflects a stranger Fist shatters the despair Awake the pain to anger [Chorus:] How do I close thine eyes of murder? How do I close thine eyes of murder? Staring into me? My obsession is dying, sinking me deeper My depression, this world has disavowed Razor at wrist I seethe The flesh is peeled apart now Gone is my faded dream Failure, I welcome in thou [Chorus] This lifetime in sorrow, God let the angels die This is our last goodbye, In love and death we cry Our last goodbye [Solo: Flynn] No, no, no, no Spit in the face of loss Coward, my own self-hatred No more I bear this cross Struggle, and rise from the dead This lifetime in sorrow, God let the angels die This is our last goodbye, In love and death we cry Our last goodbye

Breathe in, breathe out Breathe in, breathe out Breathe in Breathe in, breathe out Breathe in, breathe out Breathe in Tied to a wheel, our fingers got to feel Bleeding through a tourniquet smile Spinning on a whim, a slide to the right I felt you like electric light For our love For our fear For our rise against the years and years and years Got a machinehead, better than the rest Green to red, machinehead Got a machinehead, better than the rest Green to red, I walk from my machine I walk from my machine Breathe in, breathe out Breathe in, breathe out Breathe in Deaf dumb and thirty Starting to deserve this Leaning on my conscience wall Blood is like wine Unconscious all the time If I had it all again I'd change it all Got a machinehead, better than the rest Green to red, machinehead Got a machinehead, s'better than the rest Green to red, ..yea I walk from my machine I walk from my machine Breathe in, breathe out Breathe in, breathe out Breathe in, breathe in, breathe in Got a machinehead, better than the rest Green to red, machinehead Got a machinehead, s'better than the rest Green to red, machinehead..yea Yea yea yea. Better than the Rest. ...head-head-head-head-head. Better than the Rest. ...head-head-head-head-head. Better than the Rest. ...head-head-head-head-head.......... I walk from my machine I walk from my machine

The Lowest of The Low Subversives There's something subversive about you and me 'Cause there's a market-value on love and we're getting something for free I don't know why, but when we're apart something makes me want to start… Setting fires and kicking down doors I hope we never have to resort to dividing what is mine and what is yours There's something coercive about the way some people smile… Wide open as if to say, "Come on in and browse a while." And some time when your resistance is low Remember that I know… Whose your favourite Pogue There's a place in my soul where noone else can adore you And like the poet-soldier says, "I would spill my blood for you." There's nothing conclusive in this whole world 'Cause flags can change and martyrs die and there're many towns left to burn But somewhere between there and here, for one night, hold me near And sing my shallow tears And we'll drink but not to forget But to remember instead All our happy years ~~~~~ This was just posted to a woman's personal weblog. She used to listen to this song a lot, with her husband ~ they're in the process of divorcing now. She posted it because of the one line: "I hope we never have to resort to dividing what is mine and what is yours" and what they're going through now. IP: Logged |

Changes in Latitudes, Changes in Attitudes By: Jimmy Buffett 1977 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 hungry and went out for a bite Ran into a chum with a bottle of rum And we wound up drinkin all night Chorus: It's these 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 Reading departure signs in some big airport Reminds me of the places I've been Visions of good times that brought so much pleasure Makes me want to go back again If it suddenly ended tomorrow I could somehow adjust to the fall Good times and riches and son of a bitches I've seen more than I can recall Chorus: 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 I think about Paris when I'm high on red wine I wish I could jump on a plane So many nights I just dream of the ocean God I wish I was sailin' again Oh, yesterday's 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 Chorus: With these changes in latitudes, changes in attitudes Nothing remains quite the same With all of my running and all of my cunning If I couldn't laugh I just would go insane If we couldn't laugh we just would go insane If we weren't all crazy we would go insane _______________________________________ (Better days, better ways) Everybody's lookin' for (Better days) Somewhere beneath the shinin' star (Better days) Take me won't you take me to (Better days) Sure could use a few (Better days) Floridays...

"If we weren't all crazy, we'd go insane" Yeah, that about sums it up.Another Duet between the Ego and the Void: Your lights are on, but you're not home Your mind is not your own Your heart sweats, your body shakes Another kiss is what it takes
You can't sleep, you can't eat There's no doubt, you're in deep Your throat is tight, you can't breathe Another kiss is all you need Whoa, you like to think that you're immune to the stuff, oh yeah It's closer to the truth to say you can't get enough, you know you're Gonna have to face it, you're addicted to love You see the signs, but you can't read You're runnin' at a different speed Your heart beats in double time Another kiss and you'll be mine, a one track mind You can't be saved Oblivion is all you crave If there's some left for you You don't mind if you do Whoa, you like to think that you're immune to the stuff, oh yeah It's closer to the truth to say you can't get enough, you know you're Gonna have to face it, you're addicted to love Might as well face it, you're addicted to love IP: Logged |

It keeps playin in my mind. 'Cause girl I gotta thing for you. And I know it's kinda crazy. Cause I know that you have someone else. Wonderin where you were last night. And I know the night was hazy, But I still remember wakin up and kissin your head one more time... But oh yeah now, don't think we're through, I gotta thing for you... Well I remember layin your head down, I remember lovin our love sounds. I gotta thing for you. An I know the night is crazy, But I still remember wakin up and kissin your head one more time...

(I don't wanna know) (I don't wanna know) (I don't wanna know) I'll go ahead and pour myself a drink I really couldn't care less what you think Well I don't have to listen now Live this day down If I can't feel a thing You might as well save your goodbyes We can give this train wreck one last ride I'm gonna have to listen now Live this day down If I don't make things right I'll tell you one last time I don't wanna know it's over So save your goodbye kiss I don't wanna know it's over Cause ignorance is bliss I can hardly see What's in front of me Cause the vodka's running on empty I can't stay sober If it's over (I don't wanna know) (I don't wanna know) (I don't wanna know) So save your goodbye kiss (I don't wanna know) (I don't wanna know) (I don't wanna know) I woke up with my heartbeat in my head I reached for the bottle by the bed I saw your side was not slept in Cold sheets again Remind me of what you said We need to take a break for a while It's been so long since I smiled I don't wanna listen now Live this day down With you so drunk and high So I'll say goodbye I don't wanna know it's over So save your goodbye kiss I don't want to know it's over Cause ignorance is bliss I can hardly see What's in front of me Cause the vodka's running on empty I can't stay sober If it's over I don't wanna know it's over So save your goodbye kiss I don't wanna know it's over Cause ignorance is bliss Now I know I can't stay sober Cause you left me here like this I don't wanna know (I don't wanna know) (I don't wanna know) (I don't wanna know) So save your goodbye kiss (I don't wanna know) (I don't wanna know) (I don't wanna know) Cause ignorance is bliss I can hardly see What's in front of me Cause the vodka's running on empty I can't stay sober If it's over If it's over I don't wanna know If it's over If it's over I don't wanna know Honey why are you calling me so late? It's kinda hard to talk right now. Honey why you´re crying? Is everything okay? I've gotta whisper 'cause I can't be too loud Oh Well, my girls in the next room Sometimes I wish she was you I guess we never really moved on It's really good to hear your voice saying my name It sounds so sweet Coming from the lips of an angel Hearing those words it makes me weak And I never wanna say goodbye But girl you make it hard to be faithful With the lips of an angel It's funny that you're calling me tonight And, yes, I've dreamt of you too Does he know you're talking to me? Will it start a fight? No I don't think she has a clue Oh Well, my girls in the next room Sometimes I wish she was you I guess we never really moved on It's really good to hear your voice saying my name It sounds so sweet Coming from the lips of an angel Hearing those words it makes me weak And I never wanna say goodbye But girl you make it hard to be faithful With the lips of an angel It's really good to hear your voice saying my name It sounds so sweet Coming from the lips of an angel Hearing those words it makes me weak And I never wanna say goodbye But girl you make it hard to be faithful With the lips of an angel And I never wanna say goodbye But girl you make it hard to be faithful With the lips of an angel Honey why are you calling me so late? Before I hung up the phone all I could hear Was the dial tone ring in my ear If I could go back in time I'd say those three words I shoulda woulda coulda said it back to you And this can't be saved if you can't be found You hung up and left me for dead on the ground You didn't even say goodbye I shoulda woulda coulda said it back to you I shoulda woulda coulda said it back to you Now that you're gone I'm wasting away The life has been siphoned right out of my veins If I could go back in time I'd say those three words I shoulda woulda coulda said it back to you And this can't be saved if you can't be found You hung up and left me for dead on the ground You didn't even say goodbye I shoulda woulda coulda said it back to you I shoulda woulda coulda said it back to you When you said those three words I kinda freaked out When you said them first my jaw hit the ground I shoulda woulda coulda said it back to you I shoulda woulda coulda said it back to you And this can't be saved if you can't be found You hung up and left me for dead on the ground You didn't even say goodbye And this can't be saved And this can't be saved If you can't be found If you can't be found And this can't be saved I shoulda woulda coulda said it back to you I shoulda woulda coulda said it back to you I think you can do much better than me After all the lies that I made you believe Guilt kicks in and I start to see The edge of the bed Where your nightgown used to be I told myself I won't miss you But I remembered What it feels like beside you I really miss your hair in my face And the way your innocence tastes And I think you should know this You deserve much better than me While looking through your old box of notes I found those pictures I took That you were looking for If there's one memory I don't want to lose That time at the mall You and me in the dressing room I told myself I won't miss you But I remembered What it feels like beside you I really miss your hair in my face And the way your innocence tastes And I think you should know this You deserve much better than me The bed I'm lying in is getting colder Wish I never would've said it's over And I can't pretend I won't think about you when I'm older 'Cause we never really had our closure This can't be the end I really miss your hair in my face And the way your innocence tastes And I think you should know this You deserve much better than me I really miss your hair in my face And the way your innocence tastes And I think you should know this You deserve much better than me (And I think you should know this) (You deserve much better than me) (And I think you should know this) (You deserve much better than me) (And I think you should know this) (You deserve much better than me) (And I think you should know this) IP: Logged |

[I'm not a fan of this guy's music, but this song came on for me very synchronistically yesterday.] No Such Thing John Mayer
“welcome to the real world” she said to me condescendingly “take a seat, take your life plot it out in black and white” well I never lived the dreams of the prom kings and the drama queens I’d like to think the best of me is still hiding up my sleeve they love to tell you “stay inside the lines” but something’s better on the other side I want to run through the halls of my high school I want to scream at the top of my lungs I just found out there’s no such thing as the real world just a lie you’ve got to rise above so the good boys and girls take the so-called right track faded white hats grabbing credits, maybe transfers they read all the books but they can’t find the answers all of our parents, they’re getting older I wonder if they’ve wished for anything better while in their memories, tiny tragedies they love to tell you “stay inside the lines” but something’s better on the other side I want to run through the halls of my high school I want to scream at the top of my lungs I just found out there’s no such thing as the real world just a lie you’ve got to rise above I am invincible I am invincible I am invincible as long as I’m alive I want to run through the halls of my high school I want to scream at the top of my lungs I just found out there’s no such thing as the real world just a lie you’ve got to rise above I just can’t wait for my ten year reunion I’m gonna bust down the double doors and when I stand on these tables before you you will know what all this time was for IP: Logged |

I cant remember anything Cant tell if this is true or dream Deep down inside I feel to scream This terrible silence stops meNow that the war is through with me I'm waking up, I cannot see That there is not much left of me Nothing is real but pain now Hold my breath as I wish for death Oh please god, wake me Back in the womb its much too real In pumps life that I must feel But cant look forward to reveal Look to the time when I'll live Fed through the tube that sticks in me Just like a wartime novelty Tied to machines that make me be Cut this life off from me Hold my breath as I wish for death Oh please god, wake me Now the world is gone, I'm just one Oh god, help me Hold my breath as I wish for death Oh please God help me Darkness imprisoning me All that I see Absolute horror I cannot live I cannot die Trapped in myself Body my holding cell Landmine has taken my sight Taken my speech Taken my hearing Taken my arms Taken my legs Taken my soul Left me with life in hell http://youtube.com/watch?v=-j39ABZyzek&feature=related IP: Logged |

"I Feel It All" by FeistI feel it all I feel it all I feel it all I feel it all The wings are wide the wings are wide Wild card inside wild card inside Oh I'll be the one who'll break my heart I'll be the one to hold the gone I know more than I knew before I know more than I knew before I didn't rest I didn't stop Did we fight or did we talk Oh I'll be the one who'll break my heart I'll be the one to hold the gun I love you more I love you more I don't know what I knew before But now I know I'm wanna win the war No one likes to take a test Sometimes you know more is less Put your weight against the door Kick drum on the basement floor Stranded in a fog of words Loved him like a winter bird On my head the water pours Gulf stream through the open door Fly away Fly away to what you want to make I feel it all, I feel it all I feel it all I feel it all The wings are wide, the wings are wide Wild card inside, wild card inside Oh I'll be the one to break my heart I'll be the one who'll break my heart I'll be the one who'll break my heart I'll end it thought you started it The truth lies The truth lied And lies divide Lies divide IP: Logged |

I've watched "One" a couple times now that I can watch videos. I only saw it once when I was younger. I didn't see many videos at all in the 80's. Anyway, it makes me cry every time I watch it now. Powerful video. Disposable Heroes is my favorite on that subject. But I can't post the lyrics here on Lyrics That Aren't My Favorites, because they are favorites for sure. This video is all disturbing images repeated over and over but you can hear the song. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=87J1gQkz71o&feature=related There aren't any good quality sound live performances on utube. Well, there was one but some guy was singing along and ruined it. IP: Logged | |
