Magenta is my favorite song by them.

It is is so incredibly beautiful. They are amazingly talented, I agree.



Tracy Bonham ~ Mother mother


Mother, mother, how's the family
I'm just calling to say hello
How's the weather, how's my father
Am I lonely, heavens know


Mother, mother, are you listening
Just a phonecall to ease your mind
Life is perfect, never better
Distance making, the heart grow blind


When you sent me off to see the world
Were you scared that I might can hurt
Would I try a little to tobacco
Would I keep on hiking up my skirt


I'm hungry
I'm dirty
I'm losing my mind
Everything's fine


I'm freezing
I'm starving
I'm bleeding death
Everything's fine


Yeah, I'm working, making money
I'm just starting to build a name
I can feel it around the corner
I could make it any day


Mother mother, can you hear me
Sure I'm sober, sure I'm sane
Life is perfect, never better
Still your daughter, still the same


If I tell you what you want to hear
Will it help you to sleep well at night
Are you sure that I'm your perfect dear
Now just cuddle up and sleep tight


I'm hungry
I'm dirty
I'm losing my mind
Everything's fine


I'm freezing
I'm starving
I'm bleeding to death
Everything's fine


I miss you
I love you

[spunge] the skanking song

if you've got this haircut then you might wanna wear a hat
cuz it's shorter at then front then it's longer at the back
they call this style a mullet and i know that for a fact
coz the Vandels sang about it and I'll just leave it at that

this is a skanking song
its a skanking song
and you cant go wrong
if you skank along
it's a skanking song it's a skanking song

If you grow your hair long, and then shave it at the sides
Stick it up with wood glue and then leave it till it dries.
Go all sorts of colours, 'coz theres loadsa, different dyies.
You've got a mohican, and i know its no suprise that,

This is a skanking song, its a skanking song,
And you cant go wrong if you skank along,
It's a skanking song, its a skanking song.

This is a skanking song, its a skanking song,
And you cant go wrong if you skank along,
It's a skanking song, its a skanking song.

If youve got a limp cut, and you find that people stare.
Just add a little something, so that you can spike your hair.
Now your lookin' gnarly, your a regular skate punk.
So youve got no excuses, and ill see you down the front.

This is a skanking song, its a skanking song,
And you cant go wrong if you skank along,
It's a skanking song, its a skanking song.
And you cant go wrong, come on skank along.


woot I do love my ska music

I know you guys are probably gonna groan about this group, but fuck it!

This song makes me think of a certain someone every time I hear it.


Staind

"So Far Away"

this is my life
its not what it was before
all these feelings i've shared
and these are my dreams
that i'd never lived before
somebody shake me
'cause i
i must be sleeping

[chorus]
now that we're here,
it's so far away
all the struggle we thought was in vain
all the mistakes,
one life contained
they all finally start to go away
now that we're here its so far away
and i feel like i can face the day i can forgive
and i'm not ashamed to be the person that i am today

these are my words
that i've never said before
i think i'm doing okay
and this is the smile
that i've never shown before

somebody shake me 'cause i
i must be sleeping

[chorus]

i'm so afraid of waking
please don't shake me
afraid of waking
please don't shake me

[chorus]

Yeah, screw you too.

This is an old favourite of mine...

Iron Maiden

`Murders in the Rue Morgue`

I remember it as plain as day
although it happened in the dark of the night.
I was strolling through the streets of Paris
and it was cold it was starting to rain.
And then I heard a piercing scream
and I rushed to the scene of the crime
but all I found was the butchered remains
of two girls lay side by side.

Murders in the Rue Morgue
someone call the Gendarmes
Murders in the Rue Morgue
run before the killers go free

There's some people coming down the street
at last there's someone heard my call
I can't understand why they're pointing at me
I never done nothing at all.
But I must have got some blood on my hands
because everyone's shouting at me
I can't speak French so I couldn't explain
and like a fool I started running away.

Murders in the Rue Morgue
someone call the Gendarmes
Murders in the Rue Morgue
am I ever gonna be free.

And now I've gotta get away from the arms of the law.
All France is looking for me.
I've gotta find my way across the border for sure
down the south to Italy.

Murders in the Rue Morgue
someone call the Gendarmes
Murders in the Rue Morgue
I'm never going home.

Well I made it to the border at last
But I can't erase the scene from my mind
Anytime somebody stares at me, well
I just start running blind
Well I'm moving through the shadows at night
Away from the staring eyes
Any day they'll be looking for me
'Cause I know I show the signs of...

Murders in the Rue Morgue
running from the Gendarmes
Murders in the Rue Morgue
running from the arms of the law

Murders in the Rue Morgue
running from the Gendarmes
Murders in the Rue Morgue
am I ever gonna be free

It took so long and I'm getting so tired
I'm running out of places to hide
Should I return to the scene of the crime
Where the two young victims died
If I could go to somebody for help
It'd get me out of trouble for sure
But I know that it's on my mind
That my doctor said I've done it before.

Murders in the Rue Morgue
they're never gonna find me
Murders in the Rue Morgue
I'm never going home.

Gorillaz - "Double Bass"

All of which makes me anxious
at times unbearably so.


Patsy Cline - "Walkin' After Midnight"

I go out walkin'
After midnight
Out in the moonlight
Just like we used to do
I'm always walkin'
After midnight
Searchin' for you

I walk for miles
Along the high-way
Well thats just my way
Of sayin' I love you
I'm always walkin'
After midnight
searchin' for you

I stop to see a weapin' willow
Cryin' on his pillow
Maybe hes cryin' for me
And as the skies turn gloomy
Night winds whisper to me
I'm lonesome as I can be

I go a walkin'
After midnight
Out in the starlight
Just hoping you may be
Somewere a walkin'
After midnight
Searchin' for me

I stop to see a weapin' willow
Cryin' on his pillow
Maybe hes cryin' for me
And as the skies turn gloomy
Night winds whisper to me
I'm lonesome as I can be

I go out walkin'
After midnight
Out in the starlight
Just hopin' you may be
Somewere a walkin'
After midnight
Searchin' for me

Your Revolution Is A Joke - Funeral for a Friend

They stand to fight for nothing,
and show how stupid we've become.
As fortune favours only,
those who care to much to see
That it will never be okay,
some will say.

We stand to fight for nothing,
so close your eyes and fade away.
Don't believe their headlines
they poison our minds, everyday

It will never be the same,
purpose buried everyday,
Lies that lead you to the grave,
some will say

And it will never be okay,
and some will say
With purpose buried everyday,
and some will say
Lies that lead you into the grave.
As some will say.

Your revolution is a joke,
as I will say..

From the amazing "Remain in Light" album, this song of course has cool lyrics, but is probably best appreciated by actually listening to the interwoven vocal harmonies and crazy afrobeat-influenced polyrhythms. Somewhat shortened due to the complex vocal parts at the end.


Talking Heads - The Great Curve

Lyrics by David Byrne


Sometimes the world has a load of questions
Seems like the world knows nothing at all
The world is near but it's out of reach
Some people touch it...but they can't hold on.

She is moving to describe the world
Night must fall now - darker, darker.
She has messages for everyone
Night must fall now - darker, darker.
She is moving by remote control
Night must fall now - darker, darker.
Hands that move her are invisible
Night must fall now - darker, darker.

The world has a way of looking at people
Sometimes it seems that the world is wrong
She loves the world, and all the people in it
She shakes 'em up when she start to walk.

She is only partly human being
Divine, to define, she is moving to define, so say so, so say so
She defines the possibilities
Divine, to define, she is moving to define, so say so, so say so
Holding on for an Eternity
Divine, to define, she is moving to define, so say so, so say so
Gone...ending without finishing
Divine, to define, she is moving to define, so say so, so say so

The world moves on a womans hips
The world moves and it swivels and bops
The world moves on a womans hips
The world moves and it bounces and hops

A world of light...she's gonna open our eyes up
A world of light...she's gonna open our eyes up
She's gonna hold/it move/it hold it/move it hold/it move it hold/
it move it
A world of light...she's gonna open out eyes up

She is moving to describe the world
Night must fall now-darker, darker.
She has messages for everyone
Night must fall now - darker, darker.
She is moving by remote control
Night must fall now - darker, darker.
Hands that move her are invisible
Night must fall now - darker, darker.

Divine, to define, she is moving to define, so say so
Night must fall now - darker, darker.
She...has got to move the world...to move the world...to move
the world

A world of light...she's gonna open our eyes up

Fields of the Nephilim

`Preacherman`

Preacher Man

Well he talks in confusion
and he faults your point of view
You talk about his apparition
and he talks
hear him laughing at you
Contamination and radiation
Let it crawl while the city sleeps
Your turn to lay for bait for a while
Now you're melting through your burning fields
and all my people say oh
Stop!

When he talks
connected scars reopen
A thousand fingers
reach out for you
We don't feel no contamination
We don't feel no contamination
We don't feel no contamination
We don't feel no contamination
Oh keep talking
You're a hunter I'm a wolf
Yeah keep talking
I'm the preacher you're a fool
Contamination and radiation
Let it crawl while the city sleeps
Your turn to lay for bait for a while
Now you're melting through your burning fields
That's when my people say oh
We don't feel no contamination
Radiation, contamination
Radiation, contamination
Radiation, contamination
Radiation

Of all the Beatles Song's this is my Fav..

Joan was quizzical, studied pataphysical
Science in the home
Late nights all alone with a test-tube
Ohh-oh-oh-oh...
Maxwell Edison majoring in medicine
Calls her on the phone
"Can I take you out to the pictures
Joa-oa-oa-oan?"
But as she's getting ready to go
A knock comes on the door...

Bang, bang, Maxwell's silver hammer
Came down upon her head
Clang, clang, Maxwell's silver hammer
Made sure that she was dead

Back in school again Maxwell plays the fool again
Teacher gets annoyed
Wishing to avoid an unpleasant sce-e-e-ene
She tells Max to stay when the class has gone away
So he waits behind
Writing 50 times "I must not be so-o-o-oo..."
But when she turns her back on the boy
He creeps up from behind

Bang, bang, Maxwell's silver hammer
Came down upon her head
Clang, clang, Maxwell's silver hammer
Made sure that she was dead

P.C. Thirty-One said "we caught a dirty one"
Maxwell stands alone
Painting testimonial pictures ohh-oh-oh-oh
Rose and Valerie screaming from the gallery
Say he must go free (Maxwell must go free)
The judge does not agree and he tells them so-o-o-oo
But as the words are leaving his lips
A noise comes from behind

Bang, bang, Maxwell's silver hammer
Came down upon his head
Clang, clang, Maxwell's silver hammer
Made sure that he was dead

Santarea, nice work on the Paula Cole lyrics. I live in PA in a city called Bethlehem, and yes it's true - when I leave Bethlehem, there is this freedom that I feel. But still, there's no place like home.

Lacuna Coil »» Daylight Dancer

Answer me, it can't be so hard
cry to relieve what's in your heart
desolation, grief and agony

Trying to move
down in this grave
trying to believe in every faith
as another bridge to clarity

Want to stay another way
Want to stay another way
Want to stay another way
Want to stay another way

Take another chance
to find a distant Sanity
and turn your pain in truth
Take another chance
to fight a different enemy
and try to free it

Dance with me, it can't be so hard
try to reveal what's in your heart
desolation, grief and agony

Walking through a life decayed
while you're repeating
your mistakes
there's another chance
to try to get away

Take another chance
to find a distant sanity
and turn your pain in truth
Take another chance
to fight a different enemy
and try to free it

Want to stay another way
Want to stay another way

Take another chance
to find a distant sanity
and turn your pain in truth
Take another chance
to fight a different enemy
and try to free it

Take another chance
to find a distant sanity
and turn your pain in truth
Take another chance
to fight a different enemy
and try to free it

Hootie & The Blowfish

Look Away

I saw her standing there
Tears upon her cheek told me something was wrong
I asked her what it was
She looked away and said my daddy's home.
I knew what that meant
It meant that I could never see her again
I had seen this once before
I didn't wanna deal with it anymore

Look away she said, as she turned to me
And when I tried to hold her, I couldn't let her be
Let her be, Let her be

I said why, why do you make me cry
She said I love you so, Look away I don't wanna know
I saw her standing there
Tears upon her cheek told me something's wrong
I said what baby
she looked away and said my daddy's home

Look away she said, and she turned to me
but darling, oh I loved her, couldn't let her be
Let her be, Let her be
Look away, she said I love you so,

Look Away.

This is my 'comfort' song - you know that song you listen to, when the whole world sucks? I am going to sing this one to my baby a lot.

Ella Fitzgerald (Louis Armstrong)

Cheek to Cheek

Heaven, I’m in heaven

And my heart beats so that I can hardly speak

And I seem to find the happiness I seek

When we’re out together dancing cheek to cheek

Heaven, I’m in heaven

And the cares that hung around me through the week

Seem to vanish like a gambler’s lucky streak

When we’re out together dancing cheek to cheek

Oh I love to climb a mountain

And reach the highest peak

But it doesn’t thrill me half as much

As dancing cheek to cheek

Oh I love to go out fishing

In a river or a creek

But I don’t enjoy it half as much

As dancing cheek to cheek

Come on and dance with me

I want my arms about you

That those charms about you

Will carry me through...

Right up to heaven, I’m in heaven

And my heart beats so that I can hardly speak

And I seem to find the happiness I seek

When we’re out together dancing, out together dancing

Out together dancing cheek to cheek

I have a comfort song too, Helio - Jack Johnson, no other way. It's a really good song to cry to, yet it doesn't leave you with that hollowed-out, depressed feeling that most cathartic music gives me.

When your mind is a mess so is mine
I can't sleep cause it hurts when I think
My thoughts aren't at peace
With the plans that we make
The chances we take
They're not yours they're not mine
There's waves that can break
All the words that we said and the words that we mean
words can fall short, can't see the unseen
cause the world is awake
For somebody's sake
Now please close your eyes
Woman, please get some sleep

and know that if I knew all of the answers
I would not hold them from you
Know all of the things that I know
we told each other there is no other way

Too much silence can be misleading
You're drifting I can hear it in the way that you're breathing
We don't really need to find reason
cause out the same door that it came well it's leaving
It's leaving
Leaving like a day that's done and part of a season
Resolve is just a concept that's as dead as the leaves
But at least we could sleep, it's all that we need
When we wake we would find, our minds would be free
To go to sleep

and know that if I knew all of the answers
I would not hold them from you
Know all of things that I know
cause we told each other there is no other way

Innocence End - Anders Manga

No Regrets or Casualties
Just your Memory Keeping Me
By your Side I will Be There
In A Love Seat Electric Chair

As They Lead Me Down the Hall
Hanging Head and Walking Tall
I'll Be Seeing You My Dear
Make the Hate all Disappear

As they Strap My Legs and Wrists
And the Crowd All Throw their Fists
Realize I've Lost the Will
Burned Out Shame and Ugly Thrills

Drown the Pain and Spend the Price
Wire My Skull and Shave it Twice
Yes My Love It's Nearly Time
Intertwined and So Divine

I Am Waiting for the Innocence to End

Hatred Fills the Humid Air
And the Looks I Can Hardly Bear
All Their Eyes Aimed Right at Me
Like A Sideshow CarniFreak

All this Horror I'm Aware
All and All I Could Hardly Care
By your Side I will Be There
In A Love Seat Electric Chair

There'll Be Nowhere Left to Run
Once That Switch is
Thrown and Done
Arms Wide Open Greeting Me
Innocence in Peace to Keep

I Am Waiting for the Innocence to End

Sonata Arctica-The Cage

A lifetime ago, with frozen eyes they closed the door.
Suddenly I realized what locks are for. No trusting them anymore, lights - are - out.

Empty the stare, innocent and unaware, dragged out from my home, my lair.
Earmarked me, hurt me, burned me.

The walls around me, eyes surround me, feed my fear again.
I must be freed or I will die before the harvest moon, my friend.
I do not have another year in me, you've gotta set me free.

The dream is alive, I can run up the hills every night,
go around and see another side of the tree.
Freedom has a meaning for me, howl with me.

Fear in the dark, I advise you. Can't see the eyes, they glow behind you....
It's my song they now sing to you.
You stand no chance....

They'll kill for me, steal back my freedom, set me free, it's my minions versus thee.
Fiery the vengeance, hate will drain me.

The walls around me, eyes surround me, feed my fear again.
I must be freed or I will die before the harvest moon, my friend.
I do not have another year in me, you've gotta set me free.

The dream is alive, I can run up the hills every night,
go around and see another side of the tree.
All I want is to be untamed and free, howl and (dream).

The dream is alive, with the moon on the hills every night,
run around and see another side of the dream.
Freedom has a meaning for me, you can't tame me...

You will remember the day you crossed my path.
leave me without a guard and you feel my wrath.
What you have done to me has made me bitter and cruel.
I'll see that all the hate you spread returns to you, you, to you...

The walls around me, eyes surround me, feed my fear again.
I must be freed or I will die before the harvest moon, my friend.
I do not have another year in me, you've gotta set me free.

The dream is alive, I can run up the hills every night,
go around and see another side of the tree.
All I want is to be untamed and free, howl and (dream).

The dream is alive, with the moon on the hills every night,
run around and see another side of the dream.
Freedom has a meaning for me, you can't tame me...

The dream is alive, I can run up the hills every night,
go around and see another side of the tree.
All I want is to be untamed and free, howl and (dream).

The dream is alive, with the moon on the hills every night,
go around and see another side of the dream.
Freedom has a meaning for me...

Do Dark Horses Dream Of Nightmares?

Standing on a strange shore-
This desolate coastline,
It offers cold comfort.
Very little more than the sky
For a blanket
The earth for my bed.

THE SISTERS OF WYRD:
"Thethreads upon the loom of life
Have foreordained your coming here,
So weep not mannikin of mankind
Dry your worthless puppet-tears."

Unanswered questions-
How they play on my mind,
Now that darkness is falling and
Still there's no sign of my guide.

Either I have been betrayed-
They have left me to die,
Or worse still at this moment he lies-
An unwitting victim by brigands attacked,
Left naked and dead with a knife
In his back.

Childhood terrors return to me now,
From the rand stench of fear in
The sweat on my brow.
Deciet and despair are to me
Kith and kin,
Seduced into slumber-
My nightmare begins.

"Welcome - welcome to my domain,
I have been biding my time.
Watching and waiting -
But now you are mine.

Weaving the web that entwines you,
Like a puppet you play on the end
Of your strings 'till the end of
Your days."

Daylight flees as night gives chase
I'm held in panics dank embrace,
I smother in his cold caress -
The sum of all my worthlessness.
I have been told to thank the Lord
For all that He will send,
But if death should come to meet me -
Must I greet him as a friend?

Now I see that this quest is
A test of my fidelity -
Has God forsaken me?
When maddness sings his lullaby a

Nightmare filled with unknown things -
To cast aspersion on my sanity.

Faith starts to flounder in
A mind torn apart,
My thoughts move in time with
The beat of my heart
A creature of habit
I make easy prey,
Cross faith and fire cannot
Hold at bay the beast that
Pursues me -
The end drawing near.
My soul keeps no secrets -
He knows what I fear.

Flying so high on the wings
Of a dream,
Over mountain and forest -
'cross river and stream.
While the creatures that feed

Off the doubts I invent
Await my arrival with evil intent.

"Welcome - welcome to my domain,
I have been biding my time.
Watching and waiting -
But now you are mine.
Weaving the web that entwines you,
Like a puppet you play on the end
Of your strings 'till the end of
Your days."

So in that twilight world that
Lies amidst life and death I dream,
And writhe in fitful slumber no-one
Hears mjy silent screams.
Except the horses head that stares
With black and lifeless eyes,

Atop its totem glaring as it mocks
My helpless cries.

Now I see that this quest is
A test of my fidelity -
Has God forsaken me?
When maddness sings his lullaby a
Nightmare filled with unknown things -
To cast aspersion on my sanity.

Shapeless form surround me
Casting shadows in the night,
I feel their breath upon me-
Catch their faces in the light.
Somnambulistic hunters come
To prey upon my fears -
As peals of psycopathic laughter
Echo in my ears.


Startled I waken from my
Death-like sleep,
Though fearful and shaken
I crawl to my feet.
Still my memories taunt me -
Like ghosts they appear,
Forever to haunt me when
Darkness draws near.

"Welcome - welcome to my domain,
I have been biding my time.
Watching and waiting -
But now you are mine.
Weaving the web that entwines you,
Like a puppet you play on the end
Of your strings 'till the end of
Your days."

Then fleeing from the terrors
At the night before I leave,

The remenants of reality behind
Me 'neath the trees.
Waking in the light of dawn I
Pray that God will send -
His wisdom now to guide me
Through this night-time without end.

Now I see that this quest is
A test of my fidelity-
Has God forsaken me?
When madness sings his lullaby a
Nightmare filled with unknown things -
To cast aspersion on my sanity.

London After Midnight - Carry On Screaming

I've knelt at your alter
I've cut out my heart
I've lived in your Ruins
my pain is your art

my wrists are bound tight so as not to bleed
my eyes were so dark so as not to see
the memories of the past
are fading like a bad dream

I've never been so alone than with you,
I've never been scared to dream until now,
I can't close my eyes,
I'll carry on, screaming

your words are like ice,
they melt in the heat
the cold and the pain
which you seem to breed
have become what you are
and left your ruins empty...

Arctic Monkeys-When The Sun Goes Down (I've had this song in my head all day)

So who's that girl there?
I wonder what went wrong
So that she had to roam the streets
She don't do major credit cards
I doubt she does receipts
It's all not quite legitimate

And what a scummy man
Just give him half a chance
I bet he'll rob you if he can
Can see it in his eyes, yeah
That he's got a driving ban
Amongst some other offences

And I've seen him with girls of the night
And he told Roxanne to put on her red light
They're all infected but he'll be alright
Cause he's a scumbag, don't you know
I said he's a scumbag, don't you know!

Although you're trying not to listen
Avert your eyes and staring at the ground
She makes a subtle proposition
I'm sorry love I'll have to turn you down

And oh he must be up to summat
Want half a chance to show he's more than likely
I've got a feeling in my stomach
I start to wonder what his story might be
What his story might be

They said it changes when the sun goes down
And they said it changes when the sun goes down
And they said it changes when the sun goes down
Around here
Around here

And look here comes a Ford Mondeo
Isn't he Mister Inconspicuous
And he don't even have to say 'owt
She understands she's here to get picked up

And she's delighted when she sees him
Pulling in and giving her the eye
Because she must be fucking freezing
Scantily clad beneath the clear night sky
She don't stop in the winter, no and...

They said it changes when the sun goes down
And they said it changes when the sun goes down
And they said it changes when the sun goes down
Around here

They said it changes when the sun goes down
Over the river going out to town
And they said it changes when the sun goes down
Around here
Around here

What a scummy man
Just give him half a chance
I bet he'll rob you if he can
Can see it in his eyes that he's got a nasty plan
I hope you're not involved at all

Mercenary -- Firesoul

Come closer
I dare you to fall asleep

Cross my heart and hope to die within my sleep
As I believe I’m being stalked inside a dream
I start to run, my legs are numb, I beg you please
My blood dries out, my body’s cold, the rivers freeze
The rivers freeze

Helplessly I lie in wait for what may appear before me
And desperately I seek of thee; spare my soul, deceiver

Steal my heart
Then take the rest of me
Free my mind
Let me float away
On this feeling
Even though this insanity
Seems to me reality
Take my final thoughts away
Leave me be on my deathbed

Fade away
My dying day
The fever takes control
Deceiver takes my soul
Light the sky
This dying night
The flaming torch will burn
The path of no return

I seek revenge as I escape the maze within
I need the key to turn the lock that holds me back
Then I am free, fast asleep
I walk in dreams, firesoul hang on to me
I’ll make you scream
I’ll make you scream

Helplessly I lie in wait for what may appear before me
And desperately I seek of thee; spare my soul, deceiver

Falling into you
Dreaming
Trying to find you there but
Even though this sanity
Seems to me reality
Take my final thoughts away
Leave me be on my deathbed

Fade away
My dying day
The fever takes control
Deceiver takes my soul
Light the sky
This dying night
The flaming torch will burn
The path of no return

Firesoul

In my sleep I fall in deep
Into the sea of dark desire
Haunting me, stalking me
Helplessly, I’m still dreaming

In my sleep I fall in deeper down
Into the sea of dark desire
Haunting me, stalking me
I’m helpless
Watching me
In my sleep stilll dreaming

Cross my heart and hope to die within my sleep
As I believe I’m being stalked inside a dream
I start to run, my legs are numb, I beg you please
My blood dries out, my body’s cold
The river’s frozen

As I swim through you, my fire soul
Swims through me and
When you stole my heart you took control
Let me float away
On this bed I lie awaiting you
Take me with you now
Still asleep I wander in your dreams
I’m deceiving you
Take control as my blood dries out
On this dying night
On this dying night
