All Things Dull And Ugly - Monty Python


All things dull and ugly,
All creatures short and squat,
All things rude and nasty,
The Lord God made the lot.
Each little snake that poisons,
Each little wasp that stings,
He made their brutish venom,
He made their horrid wings.
All things sick and cancerous,
All evil great and small,
All things foul and dangerous,
The Lord God made them all.
Each nasty little hornet,
Each beastly little squid,
Who made the spikey urchin,
Who made the sharks, He did.
All things scabbed and ulcerous,
All pox both great and small,
Putrid, foul and gangrenous,
The Lord God made them all.
AMEN.

Bruce's Philosophers Song - Monty Python

Immanuel Kant was a real pissantWho was very rarely stable,Heidegger, Heidegger was a boozy beggerWho could think you under the table,David Hume could out-consume,Wilhelm Freidrich Hegel.And Wittgenstein was a beery swineWho was just as schloshed as Schlegel.There's nothing Nietzche couldn't teach ya'Bout the raising of the wrist.Socrates himself was permanently pissed.John Stuart Mill, of his own free willOn half a pint of shandy was particularly ill.Plato, they say could stick it away,Half a crate of whiskey everyday.Aristotle, Aristotle was a bugger for the bottle,Hobbes was fond of his dram,And René DesCartes was a drunken fart"I drink, therefore I am."Yes, Socrates himself is particularly missed,A lovely little thinker but a bugger when he's pissed

Every Sperm is Sacred = Monty Python


Every sperm is sacred - Monty Python
There are Jews in the world, there are Buddhists,
There are Hindus and Mormons and then,
There are those that follow Mohammed,
But I've never been one of them...

I'm a Roman Catholic, and have been since the day I was born,
And the one thing they say about Catholics,
Is they'll take you as soon as you're warm...

You don't have to be a six-footer,
You don't have to have a great brain,
You don't have to have any clothes on -
You're a Catholic the moment dad came...

because...

Every sperm is sacred, every sperm is great,
If a sperm is wasted, God gets quite irate.

Every sperm is sacred, every sperm is great,
If a sperm is wasted, God gets quite irate.

Let the heathen spill theirs, on the dusty ground,
God shall make them pay for each sperm that can't be found

Every sperm is wanted, every sperm is good,
Every sperm is needed in your neighbourhood.

Hindu, Taoist, Mormon,
Spill theirs just anywhere,
But God loves those who treat their
Semen with more care.

Every sperm is sacred, every sperm is great,
If a sperm is wasted,
God gets quite irate.

Every sperm is sacred,
Every sperm is good,
Every sperm is needed,
In your neighbourhood.

Every sperm is useful, every sperm is fine,
God needs everybody's,
Mine
And mine
And mine

Let the Pagan spill theirs,
O'er mountain, hill and plain,
God shall strike them down for
Each sperm that's spilt in vain.

Every sperm is sacred, every sperm is good,
Every sperm is needed in your neighbourhood.

Every sperm is sacred, every sperm is great,
If a sperm is wasted, God gets quite irate.

On a more serious note...... This song touches me each time, it is so beautiful. I think this song is just beautiful....

There’s no time for us
There’s no place for us
What is this thing that builds our dreams yet slips away
From us

Who wants to live forever
Who wants to live forever....?

There’s no chance for us
It’s all decided for us
This world has only one sweet moment set aside for us

Who wants to live forever
Who wants to live forever?

Who dares to love forever?
When love must die

But touch my tears with your lips
Touch my world with your fingertips
And we can have forever
And we can love forever
Forever is our today
Who wants to live forever
Who wants to live forever?
Forever is our today

Who waits forever anyway?

Thank you spell check.

It is just so pretty.

Ice-T~Big Gun



It's goin' down. Yo the girl got a gun,
best run. Because she's quick to flip and empty out the clip,
and make a man understand where she's comin' from.
The hardcore's connected to the base of her fate.
She just breaks and bring drama to the situation,
ejaculation of my projectile, she's buck wild.
Better recognize when she comes she comes correct.
Collects respect and if not, you catch a broken neck.
Buddy look down and your shirts all bloody,
looks like she caught you with a bad one for messin with da mad one.

Told you bout this girl before, you didn't listen to me.
As I talk, now you're stalked by the hunter of the fronter,
who's size five and sexy.
Quick, they catch your body and another one next week.
Huh it doesn't matter cuz the girl stays strapped
she says she had enough of men and now she's lookin for payback.
And there's no way you can fade her son.
She walks softly but she carries a big gun.

She walks softly but she carries a big gun.
She walks softly but she carries a big gun.
She walks softly but she carries a big gun.
And there's no way that you can fade her son.
She walks softly but she carries a big gun.
She walks softly but she carries a big gun.
She walks softly but she carries a big gun.
She walks softly but she carries a big gun.

The most venemous feminist, homie, she ain't soft.
You give her trouble then she might cut your head off.
Or something that you like to think's the best:
she'll blow big holes in your chest.

She says she gotta cuz she says a lotta ladies won't
She says she gotta cuz she says a lotta ladies don't
She says she gotta cuz she says a lotta ladies can't
She says she gotta cuz she knows a lotta ladies

Romance the thoughts of giving men their own medicine.
Electrocute 'em light 'em up like Con Edison,
she got no fear five rings in their ear,
holes in their nose, way-out clothes.
Living life to the fullest buck shot and bullets.
Triggers she'll pull it, Earth she wanna rule it.
Maybe she will cuz she's quick to kill.
The city lights make her dresses tight, yes she bites.
You never know where she'll come from.
She walks softly but she carries a big gun

(chorus)

You got no time to trip or argue, you're through.
I'll bet she gets ya. Homeboy you'll catch a stretcher like so many before.
She's on a bodycount tour. But not rock, she's puttin sucker punks in cops.
You say she's nothin but a woman then you come up shot.
You say "Why you wanna kill me?" and she says "why not?"

Pop she got a body that'll make you cry.
Pop she got a shotty that'll make you die.

Don't bring drama to her homie, cuz you'll wind up flat.
She'll put your ass horizontal then she'll peel your cap.
She got no lovin', love is something that she never had.
She loved her mother but she hate her motherfucking dad.
So stay the hell out her way, cuz the girl don't play, NONE.

She walks softly but she carries a big gun.
She walks softly but she carries a big gun.
So don't even try to play her, son.
She walks softly but she carries a big gun.
So don't even try to front, son.
She walks softly but she carries a big gun.

Old Skool but still fucking good..

Oh Yeah.

Anyone remember what soundtrack this song was on?

*blink*

[Sanctus Dei]

Just this portion of Falling Back by Current 93 (bless his late soul.. *pout*)

In a foreign town
In a foreign land
Reaping time had come
Falling back in fields of r@pe
My love
And that was the way
And those were the horrors
As daddy went a-reaping
Falling back in fields of r@pe
My children
Crushed, crushed, crushed
In mud and wars
Mother children bleeding
You stand there laughing
Falling back in fields of r@pe

[Beowulf]

Sabbat `Horned is the Hunter`

Taken from the album `History of a Time to Come`


Alone he sits -
a vanquished Lord upon an oaken throne,
presiding o'er this conflict
that chills him to the bone,
for each tarnished blade that festers
is a thorn thrust in his side,
and His pain alone bears witness
to the folly of mankind.

What hope for a king with no kingdom to rule?
now his children desert him -
regard him a fool,
and are bonded to progress -
the plough and the scythe -
that lay waste and leave barren
what beauty survives
though legends of power and glory suffice -
for these 'latter-day-heroes'
who live out their lives,
chained by conformity shackled by greed -
and told to belive they don't want to be freed.

The enemy within us -
is well armed to spoil and ****,
and this mighty heart grows weaker with
each liberty they take,
so come ye from the shadows
do not tremble 'neath your beds,
at the mention of his name -
hold high your weary heads.

For in each delve and greenwood,
far wiser creatures play,
and in their veins and sinews,
live the Gods of yesterday.

Both wicked and lustful
this God's horny might,
He plays hide and seek
with the shadows of the night,
enthroned in high mountains -
nobility crowned with the wisdom of ages -
the forest his gown,
so nimble the fingers that pipe out the tune,
simple and pure is the song of the moon -
that echoes each evening the ritual performed,
a lament for a God to a Devil transformed.

Are there men among us
prepared to face the fight
who'll stand by their convictions
'gainst overwhelming might,
so do not hide like cowards
and await the bitter end,
come take your courage in both hands
and join with me my friend.

For in each delve and greenwood,
far wiser creatures play,
and in their veins and sinews,
live the Gods of yesterday.

A God of many faces
yet none of them are known
existing in all places at all times -
His glory shown in the majesty of nature,
let the Hymn to Pan be sung
for the myth is but a History Of A Time To Come.

His name is eternal - His power unknown,
the ruler paternal - He watches alone,
as great cities tumble and empires fall,
admist this confusion the Hunter stands tall.

[sensuous0mar]

I just think this is such a quirky song. This verse especially makes me laugh, cry and scream all at once because I've totally felt this way before:

I almost held up a grocery store
where I almost did five years and then seven more
Cause I almost got popped for a fight with a thug
Who almost made off with a bunch of the drugs
that I almost got hooked on 'cause you ran away
and I wish I would've had the nerve to ask you to stay.

And I almost had you
But I guess that doesn't cut it
Almost had you
And I didn't even know it
You left me guessin' and now I'm destined to spend my time missing you.
I almost wished you would've loved me too.



And I'm sure i have little bits incorrect, like punctuation or whatever, but that's the general idea. That little bit of the Bowling For Soup song "Almost" contains some of my favorite lyrics ever

[sensuous0mar]

To top it all off and seem really uncool to probably everyone....every word in Ben Folds' "The Luckiest" is absolutely worth crying over. Whenever I listen to that song I have to sing along and whenever I sing along I cry. It's a rather slowish song, so I don't really feel like typing out all the lyrics, but if you feel like looking them up, go for it. It's way better with the music though.

Franz Ferdinand~The Fallen

Some say you're trouble, boy
Just because you like to destroy
All the things that bring the idiots joy
Well, what's wrong with a little destruction?

And the Kunst won't talk to you
Because you kissed St Rollox Adieu
Because you robbed a supermarket or two
Well, who gives a damn about the prophets of Tesco?

Did I see you in a limousine
Flinging out the fish and the unleavened
Turn the rich into wine
Walk on the mean
For the fallen walk among us
Walk among us
Never judge us
Yeah we're all...

Up now and get 'em, boy
Up now and get 'em, boy
Drink to the devil and death at the doctors

Did I see you in a limousine
Flinging out the fish and the unleavened
Five thousand users fed today
As you feed us
Won't you lead us
To be blessed

So we stole and drank Champagne
On the seventh seal you said you never feel pain
"I never feel pain, won't you hit me again?"
"I need a bit of black and blue to be a rotation"

In my blood I feel the bubbles burst
There was a flash of fist, an eyebrow burst
You've a lazy laugh and a red white shirt
I fell to the floor fainting at the sight of blood

Did I see you in a limousine
Flinging out the fish and the unleavened
Turn the rich into wine
Walk on the mean
Be they Magdalene or virgin you've already been
You've already been and we've already seen
That the fallen are the virtuous among us
Walk among us
Never judge us to be blessed

So I'm sorry if I ever resisted
I never had a doubt you ever existed
I only have a problem when people insist on
Taking their hate and placing it on your name

Some say you're trouble, boy
Just because you like to destroy
You are the word, the word is 'destroy'
I break this bottle and think of you fondly
Did I see you in a limousine
Flinging out the fish and the unleavened
To the whore in a hostel
Or the scum of a scheme
Turn the rich into wine
Walk on the mean
It's not a jag in the arm
It's a nail in the beam
On this barren Earth
You scatter your seed
Be they Magdalene or virgin
You've already been
Yeah, you've already been
We've already seen
That the fallen are the virtuous among us
Walk among us
If you judge us
We're all damned

The Fall - Couldn't Get Ahead

Lyrics by Mark E. Smith


Couldn't get ahead.
I just couldn't get ahead.
Couldn't get ahead.
Just couldn't get ahead.

Come out of pub, the shop is closed.
Come out of pub, Harry wants to know,
When the next bus is.
I said five or ten minutes.
I had my change in my hands.
The bus flashes past,
My hands are caught

Just couldn't get ahead. I just couldn't get ahead.

In a week, earned money for a month.
Got all my jobs done.
My eyelids were sick of it.
Gist was I could sleep for a day,
but bad bills have no respect for a decent man's rest
Flopping on the doorstep,
Outlined in color red.

I just couldn't get ahead. I just couldn't get ahead.

On an Asiatic plane with wings not of the grain.
Toilet queue was endless,
Couldn't get a beer.
The hostesses were muslims.
When I get in toilet,
Light flashes: "Return to seat."
I feared withdrawal,
and I feared beer was making sludge of my head.

Just couldn't get ahead. I just couldn't get ahead.

Now my problems are solved.
It's a remedy of old.
I pretend I'm blind you see.
Put on some Armani clothes,
And act like E.T.
Where I'm at is a cabbage patch,
No longer strewn with weeds.
Have a Ghandi at me.
Colour mags wish me well,
No more, no get ahead.

Just couldn't get ahead. I just couldn't get ahead.

[Nike]

I like that song, too, pitseleh....

here's another one I really like.....


Project Pitchfork - Fear
(Daimonion)

there is nothing to fear
if aggression is the result of fear
then fear is the fear of aggression
so if you are afraid of an aggressor
you are afraid of a person
which is afraid of you
a person ruled by its fears
and why should you be afraid of someone
who is behaving like a small child in the darkness
break the circle we are living in
and don´t be afraid
there is nothing to fear

[cannibalnuns]

My God - Pennywise

People on the street they wannna find a god they'll never know,
organized religion pulls the blinds then they pull the wool,
they open up your head, they're fuckin' with your mind,
now you can't see because you're blind
You try to make amends but your heads still spinnin' round,
the church of Jesus Christ said it's time, don't fuck around,
you wanna go to heaven, you see it isn't free, give your money up to me
My god is not the one that you wanna see, your god is a mirage,
a conspiracy, you pray for forgiveness cause your sinnin',
scared to death so your money you'll be givin', yeah

Ohoh

Holier than thou with your one way morality,
I think your shallow faith isn't based in reality,
you don't like how were live, we're sinful and obscene,
why are you judgin' me?
You're richer than God but you're cryin' out for more,
you're livin' like a king while you steal from the poor,
wanna be forgiven, get on your knees and pray,
send in your cash and be saved

My god is not the one that you wanna see,
your god is a mirage, a conspiracy,
you pray for forgiveness cause your sinnin',
scared to death so your money you'll be givin',
yeah, better hope you've been chosen to be saved

Ohoh

Cause your empathy only goes so far today
Pay no mind to those in pain if you just want the souls
who are willing to pay
Their way, your god's not for me

My god is not the one that you wanna see,
your god is a mirage, a conspiracy,
you pray for forgiveness cause your sinnin',
scared to death so your money you'll be givin',
yeah, my god is not the one that you wanna see,
your god is a mirage, a conspiracy,
you pray for forgiveness cause your sinnin',
scared to death so your money you'll be givin',
yeah, stop

But It's Better If You Do~Panic! At The Disco

Now I'm of consenting age to be forgetting you in a cabaret.
Somewhere downtown where a burlesque queen may even ask my name
As she sheds her skin on stage
I'm seated and sweating to a dance song on the club's P.A.
The strip joint veteran sits two away
Smirking between dignified sips of his dignified peach and lime daiquiri

And isn't this exactly where you'd like me
I'm exactly where you'd like me, you know
Praying for love in a lap dance and paying in naivety
Oh, and isn't this exactly where you'd like me
I'm exactly where you'd like me, you know
Praying for love in a lap dance and paying in naivety

Oh, but I'm afraid that I
Well, I may of faked it
And I wouldn't be caught dead in this place

Well, I'm afraid that I
Well, that's right, that I may have faked it
And I wouldn't be caught dead in this place

And isn't this exactly where you'd like me
I'm exactly where you'd like me, you know
Praying for love in a lap dance and paying in naivety
Oh, and isn't this exactly where you'd like me
I'm exactly where you'd like me, you know
Praying for love in a lap dance and paying in naivety

Well, I'm afraid that I
Well, I may of faked it
And I wouldn't be caught dead in this place

Well, I'm afraid that I
Well, that's right, well I may have faked it
And I wouldn't be caught dead in this place

And isn't this exactly where you'd like me
I'm exactly where you'd like me, you know
Praying for love in a lap dance and paying in naivety
Oh, and isn't this exactly where you'd like me
I'm exactly where you'd like me, you know
Praying for love in a lap dance and paying in naivety

Praying for love and paying in naivety
Praying for love and paying in naivety, oh

Strangelove ~ Depeche Mode

There'll be times
When my crimes
Will seem almost unforgivable
I give in to sin
Because you have to make this life liveable
But when you think I've had enough
From your sea of love
I'll take more than another riverfull
Yes, and I'll make it all worthwhile
I'll make your heart smile

Strangelove
Strange highs and strange lows
Strangelove
That's how my love goes
Strangelove
Will you give it to me
Will you take the pain
I will give to you
Again and again
And will you return it

There'll be days
When I'll stray
I may appear to be
Constantly out of reach
I give in to sin
Because I like to practice what I preach
I'm not trying to say
I'll have it all my way
I'm always willing to learn
When you've got something to teach
And I'll make it all worthwhile
I'll make your heart smile

Pain will you return it
I'll say it again -- pain
Pain will you return it
I'll say it again -- pain

Pain will you return it
I'll say it again -- pain
Pain will you return it
I won't say it again


I give in
Again and again
I give in
Will you give it to me
I give in
I'll say it again
I give in

I give in
Again and again
I give in
Will you give it to me
I give in
I'll say it again
I give in

Canni ~ Great fawking Queen song!!!

[joyslayer]

I love that song!

[cannibalnuns]

I adore Depeche Mode myself, Black Celebration, Question of Lust and Mercy In You.- a few of my favs.

Wolfmoon - And the same to you with the song by Depeche Mode.

[WolfMoon]

Erm, it kinda describes my life right now.

[Beowulf]

This is one of my favourite songs.

Death `Symbolic`


I don't mean to dwell
But I can't help myself
When I feel the vibe
And taste a memory
Of a time in life
When years seemed to stand still

I close my eyes
And sink within myself
Relive the gift of precious memories
In need of a fix called innocence

When did it begin?
The change to come was undetectable
The open wounds expose the importance of
Our innocence
A high that can never be bought or sold

Chorus:
Symbolic acts - so vivid
Yet at the same time
Were invisible

Solo: Schuldiner / Solo: Koelble

Savor what you feel and what you see
Things that may not seem important now
But may be tomorrow

Do you remember when
Things seemed so eternal?
Heroes were so real...
Their magic frozen in time
The only way to learn
Is be aware and hold on tight

I close my eyes
And sink within myself
Relive the gift of precious memories
In need of a fix called innocence

When did it begin?
The change to come was undetectable
The open wounds expose the importance of
Our innocence
A high that can never be bought or sold

Repeat chorus

[angleangel_doom]

I hate it, you're always smiling.
Such a strong, cute and popular person.
I hate it, I am slow, a dunce.
No one needs me at all...
You're always skilled and don't seem to have weak points.
I'm sure you often make fun of people like me.
Actually, I want to try talking to you.
I think, maybe we can become friends.

You, whom I've always envied,
Were trembling by yourself, crying hurt.

Hey, have you ever been scared and all alone?
I guess everyone can be miserable and weak...
If I had more courage,
I would've hugged you tight.

"I'm certain we can talk about a lot of things." And,
Little by little our time ran out.
Why? I can't hear you, you're breaking up.
I was having such a good time too...

You, who could weep when scared,
Smiled all the time,
For show only.

Hey, I've been scared and all alone, too.
Miserable with my insignificance.
If I had more courage...
I would've hugged you tight.

Just imagine it and you won't be alone.
Close off your ears, and see with your heart.
See, who will have tears today?
Like the wind, I will envelop you...

Hey, have you ever been scared and all alone?
I guess everyone can be miserable and weak...
If I had more courage,
I would've hugged you tight.
Hey, I've been scared and all alone, too.
Miserable with my insignificance.
If I had more courage,
I would've hugged you tight.
Hey,
Everyone can feel like they're alone.
That's why we get scared.
There's nothing to be afraid of, though.
I will be there to hug you tight.


The ending theme to Super GALS! Kotobuki Ran, a show I grew up watching (sub not dub).
Its true on many levels for me.

[Cruel Intentions]

I can sing this! not quite as good as Dani though

Absinthe With Faust - Cradle of Filth

pour the emerald wine
into crystal glasses
we will touch the divine
through kissed kartharsis

let us pitch to the
seven year itch
of the ultra - decadent

throught the tainted worlds
and the painted girls
mephastopholies lent

tripping through boudoirs laced with opiate themes
sipping the bizzare, tasting copious dreams
a toast to the most sacriligious of days
where for every whim won, one soon repays

we touched the stars
that now laugh from afar
at we the damned

we have spent our time
dreched in opulent spledour
but when midnight chimes
will gilded souls surrender

I remember that night as if it were engraved
a bright marble bridge stretched across dark waves
from the shore to the moon and by her grace
came that erudite stranger, that fucker

he was a preditor, creditor, cold
our blood was young on the yellowing scroll
and all that glittered was not gold
but we wanted everything
and for it all lost our souls

come my friend to fate let's raise
two finger shots at this our last soirée
for tomorrow i fear,
swoops all too deadly near

this precipitous weir
to hell's high gate

he was a preditor, creditor, cold
our blood was young on the yellowing scroll
and all that glittered was not gold
but we wanted everything
and for it all lost our souls

and for it all lost our souls

[Beowulf]

Mercyful Fate

`Is That You, Melissa`

Oh... Melissa, You're in my dreams
You're with me every day

Oh... Melissa, could that really be your voice I hear?
Too soon for you and I
The priest took his sacrifice
And sent you to the other side

Oh... Melissa, You're in my dreams
You're with me every day

Oh... Melissa, do you remember the time we shared?
Do you remember the magic nights?
I will never forget your smile
Do you remember the love we had?...
Oh the love we had

Solo: Shermann

"No... Melissa"
You gotta tell me why
"No... Melissa"
I want her by my side

Solo: Shermann

"This is against the rules
There won't be another time"
Melissa tell me why
I wanna know why

"No... Melissa"
You gotta tell me why
"No... Melissa"
I want her by my side

Oh... Melissa, You're in my dreams
You're with me every day

Oh... Melissa, close your eyes and say goodbye
One last time... we'll kiss goodbye

Solo: Denner

I kiss your soul goodbye

[Nike]

Don't know why I havn posted this earlier...one of my most favourite songs ever:

The Sisters of Mercy - lights

The lights shine clear through the sodium haze
The night draws near and daylight fades
Ignore the voices discard the day
For the brand new darkness for the bright new way
Hit
Well there have been better plans
But none that I could ever understand
Emerald signal the green on black
The lights say move say never look back
And so I find a place where I’ve never been seen
Find another place where the red turns green
Where the emerald glistens through the darkness again
Where the emerald glistens through the rain

The lights shine clear through the sodium haze
The night draws near and the daylight fades
But there’s a voice in the distance quiet and clear
Saying something that I never ever wanted to hear

Well there have been better plans
But none that I could ever understand
I see the emerald signal see the green on black
I see the light say move say never look back
And so I find another place where I’ll never been seen
Find another place where the red turns green
Where the emerald glistens through the darkness again
Where the emerald glistens through the rain rain rain
And I’m happy here
In the rain
In the rain
In the rain rain rain
I’m happy here
In the rain
Where the emerald
Glistens
Through the rain

[Wise Child]

Would anyone be offended if I posted the lyrics to "I Don't Like Mondays" by the Boomtown Rats? I figured to ask first as I understand it's banned in most American states because it's about a school shooting, which leads me to surmise that maybe Americans will find it offensive or exploitative. I disagree, and think it does a beautiful job of showing the tragedy of such events for all those concerned... but I don't want to touch a nerve if anyone has personal experience.

[ennui]

Great thread, empty! I saw a few vnv but not my all time favorite. This song stops me in my tracks and moves my spirit like no other.

Beloved - VNV Nation

It's colder than before
The seasons took all they had come for
Now winter dances here
It seems so fitting don't you think?
To dress the ground in white and grey

It's so quiet I can hear
My thoughts touching every second
That I spent waiting for you
Circumstances affords me
No second chance to tell you
How much I've missed you

My beloved do you know
When the warm wind comes again
Another year will start to pass
And please don't ask me why I'm here
Something deeper brought me
Than a need to remember

We were once young and blessed with wings
No heights could keep us from their reach
No sacred place we did not soar
Still, greater things burned within us
I don't regret the choices that I've made
I know you feel the same

My beloved do you know
How many times I stared at clouds
Thinking that I saw you there
These are feelings that do not pass so easily
I can't forget what we claimed as ours

Moments lost though time remains
I am so proud of what we were
No pain remains, no feeling
Eternity awaits
Grant me wings that I might fly
My restless soul is longing
No pain remains, no feeling
Eternity awaits

I can't resist one more. I saw Tarantula by This Mortal Coil, so I have to post my all time favorite by them... The Jeweler

The jeweler has a shop
On the corner of the boulevard
In the night, in small spectacles
He polishes old coins
He uses spit and cloth and ashes
He makes them shine with ashes
He knows the use of ashes
He worships God with ashes.

The coins are often very old
By the time they reach the jeweler
With his hands and ashes
He will try the best he can
He knows that he can only shine them
Can not repair the scratches
He knows that even new coins have scars
So he just smiles.

He knows the use of ashes
Dum da de da da dey dey
He worships God with ashes
Dum da de da de de da de dey dey.

In the darkness of the night
Both his hands will blister badly
They will often open painfully
And the blood flows from his hands
He works to take from black coin faces
Thumbprints from so many ages
He wishes he could cure the scars
When he forgets he sometimes cries.

He knows the use of ashes
Dum da de da da dey dey
He worships God with ashes
Dum da de da de de da de dey dey.
He knows (he knows the use of ashes)
He knows
He knows (he worships God with ashes)
He knows
He knows (he knows the use of ashes)
He knows (Dum da de dad a dey dey)
He knows (he worships God with ashes)
He knows (Dum da de dad a dey dey)
He (he knows the use of ashes)
He
(He worships God with ashes
