I love lyrics ;)
Hair of heavnely light
Hung down around her shoulders
Electric blue
Where her eyes as she fused them to mine
And how the sparks did fly
Like the fourth of July
When she caressed me
And like the hammer of Thor
The thunder did roar through the night
And little did I know
That underneath the glow
She had a heart
Of Kryptonite
Now inside this man
She built up a superman kind of ego
With a trigger
That only her kind of woman could pull
Then she aimed me at myself
And blew me off the shelf of reality
And I couldn't do nothin'
Like a puppet with clipped strings
I fell
And it was too late for me
Too late to see
She had a heart
Of pure Kyrptonite...
The Ostrich
We'll call you when you're six years old
And drag you to the factory
To train your brain for eighteen years
With promise of security
But then you're free
And forty years you waste to chase the dollar sign
So you may die in Florida
At the pleasant age of sixty nine
The water's getting hard to drink
We've mangled up the country side
The air will choke you when you breathe
We're all committing suicide
But it's alright
It's progress folks keep pushin' till your body rots
Will strip the earth of all it's green
And then divide her into parking lots
But there's nothing you and I can do
You and I are only two
What's right and wrong is hard to say
Forget about it for today
We'll stick our heads into the sand
Just pretend that all is grand
Then hope that everything turns out ok
You're free to speak your mind my friend
As long as you agree with me
Don't criticize the father land
Or those who shape your destiny
'Cause if you do
You'll lose your job your mind and all the friends you knew
We'll send out all our boys in blue
They'll find a way to silence you
But there's nothing you and I can do
You and I are only two
What's right and wrong is hard to say
Forget about it for today
We'll stick our heads into the sand
Just pretend that all is grand
Then hope that everything turns out ok
Wow, you're way cool!....
Glad ya liked em,more to come;)
POET'S JUSTICE
Cold winds and cloudy skies
Turned to sweetness in her eyes
Fantasies I realised
Came to life to my surprise
Rain came and took her away
Just when I thought
She was here to stay
Sun gone I was left high and dry
Love came by and touched me
And kissed me so long
Shine hard October moon
Eagle take me to her soon
Run swiftly silver stream
Find my love or let me dream
Half of me is all of her
I’d be much happier if I were whole
All my words and wisdom fall
The poet's justice
Leads me to my goal
Leads me to my goal
One of my faves used to come out on stage to Mary J. Blige's version of Sweet Thing, originally by Rufus...she would sing the first verse and chorus before dancing the rest of the song...
I will love you anyway, even if you cannot stay
I think you are the one for me, here is where you ought to be
I just want to satisfy you, cuz you're not mine and I can't deny it
Don't you hear me talking baby, love me now or I'll go crazy
Chorus
Oh oh...sweet thing
Don't you know you're my everything
Oh oh...sweet thing
Don't you know you're my everything (yes you are)
I wish you were my lover, but you act so undercover
To love you child my whole life long, be it right, or be it wrong
I'm only what you make me baby, don't walk away, don't be so shady
Don't want your mind, don't want your money, these words I say they may sound funny but..
Chorus
You are my heat, you are my fire, you make me weak with strong desire
To love you child my whole life long, be it right, or be it wrong
I just want to satisfy you, cuz you're not mine and I can't deny it
Don't you hear me talking baby, love me now or I'll go crazy
You're my heat, you are my fire, you're not mine and I can't deny you
Don't you hear me talking baby, love me now or I'll crazy
(repeat to fade)
"They want to make a problem out of me
'Cos they want their own problems unseen
My mind's a gallery of memories
I reflect the history
I'm the sort of case of the human race
That people find hard to face
I'm the living wreck, I live in Tooting Bec
And I'm equal to anyone I've met"
Note: "Tooting Bec is a locale in England;)
Seeing how I tend to be one sarcastic SOB, it probably comes from the clients I deal with, and what I see on a daily basis, but these couple of lines from Harvey Danger's "Flagpole Sitta" sum up how I feel about most of society:
"I've been around the world and found only stupid people are breeding
The creetins are cloning and feeding
And I don't even own a TV."
Everytime I hear that song I crank it up.
Blind melon does a song that has the words
"I like watching the puddles gather rain"
I dunno why,but i always thought it was kewl!
It's not a song. It's a silly little childhood poem.
"And hand in hand
On the edge of the sand
They danced by the light of the moon, the moon, the moon
They danced by the light of the moon."
For some reason, a soft voice reading that in a still night......
Well, anyway. Sorry to digress.
"Stood alone on a mountaintop
Staring out at the Great Divide
I could go east - I could go west
It was all up to me to decide.
Just then I saw a young hawk soaring
And my soul began to rise...."
"Escape"
Today I burned my patience down
To change the life that I lead
And in the fire
Threw memories
Of the way things used to be
Nothing new can help you now
And all that's old is gone
Save your tears for another fool
I'm sure will come along
You can keep on talking
That won't stop my walkin' away
Living with you
Is like spending my time
Everyday on the edge of a knife
You should have known
In the final show-down
I'd leave you
With a hole in your life
The time has come
To spread my wings
And fly now that I can
So get off the run-way
So I can begin
Begin to get away from the end
You can keep on cryin'
That won't stop my flyin' away...
Hatebreed--Proven
You want to see me fail
You won't get your chance
(You want to see me fail)
You won't get your chance
(You want to see me fail)
You'll never get your chance
This is our lives
This is who we are
You can't put a price on it
It's strength within our hearts
From within our souls
Stood strong throughout the years (Stood strong)
This runs through our veins
We stay true to ourselves
You want to see me fail
You won't get your chance
(You want to see me fail)
You won't get your chance
(You want to see me fail)
You'll never get your chance
Who are you to judge us
Who are you to condemn us
I have respect, honor and dedication
For my family and my friends
From within our souls
Stood strong throughout the years (Stood strong)
This runs through our veins
We stay true to ourselves
You want to see me fail
You won't get your chance
This is deeper than blood
It's all that we have

Thoughts Without Words
Having awareness but no true sense of self
You find yourself enslaved in chains of earthly wealth
The unending chatter that plagues the mind
Confusion will be all that you find
Chaos reigns in an untamed mind
Still question all I know advancing foward
This fallacy I have disowned
You must quench the yearning and false desire
Only balance will elevate you higher
You must train the body and the mind to serve
Envisioning thoughts without words
Chaos reigns in an untamed mind
Still question all I know advancing foward
This fallacy I have disowned
Encaged in a world that fear creates
You must release yourself and liberate
I am seeking the way...
"I'm Not like Everybody Else"
I won't take all that they hand me down,
And make out a smile, though I wear a frown,
And I won't take it all lying down,
'Cause once I get started I go to town.
'Cause I'm not like everybody else,
I'm not like everybody else,
I'm not like everybody else.
And I don't want to walk around like everybody else,
And I don't want to live my life like everybody else,
And I won't say that I feel fine like everybody else,
'Cause I'm not like everybody else,
I'm not like everybody else.
But darling, you know that I love you true,
Do anything that you want me to,
Confess all my sins like you want me to,
There's one thing that I will say to you,
I'm not like everybody else,
I'm not like everybody else
And I don't want to walk around like everybody else,
And I don't want to live my life like everybody else,
And I won't say that I feel fine like everybody else,
'Cause I'm not like everybody else,
I'm not like everybody else.
Like everybody else.
If you all want me to settle down,
Slow up and stop all my running 'round,
Do everything like you want me to,
There's one thing that I will say to you,
I'm not like everybody else,
I'm not like everybody else.
And I don't want to walk around like everybody else,
And I don't want to live my life like everybody else,
And I don't want to be destroyed like everybody else,
'Cause I'm not like everybody else,
Like everybody else (like everybody else),
Like everybody else (like everybody else),
Like everybody else (like everybody else),
Like everybody else.
Opeth--In the Mist she was standing.
Seven milestones.....
Under a whatching autumn eye
Contorted trees are spreding forth
The message of the wind
With frozen hands I rode with the stars
With anger the wind blew
Giving wings to my stallion
Clouds gathered across the moon
Blazing, the white light
Passing the lake I know so well
I am near, yet so far away
Arrival.....
I saw her shadow (standing) in the darkness
Awaiting me like the night
Awaits the day
Standing silent smiling at my presence
A black candle holds the only light
Darkness encloses
And the candleseem to expire
In her cold, cold hand
And as a forlorn soul
It will fade away
Touching her flesh in this night
My blood froze forever
Embraced before the dawn
A kiss brought total eclipse
And she spoke
Once and forever
I am so cold
In mist enrobed the twilight
She was standing....
PARADISE
I feel you trying
Though in my heart
I know you're lying
And though your love
For me is dying
I see you crying
It's the pain of your secret heart
Bringing you to tears
Filling you with fears
For your mind and for your soul
I touch you softly now
Borne on by hope
Until the end somehow
I am a man and I must keep my vow
I must go on
But the wall of your secret heart
Keeps my distance clear
Helps my footsteps fall
Back in line inside my mind
What's the use you turned me loose
And left me here to cry
Where's the love we talked about
Where's my sunny sky
Secret hearts and sorry tales
Will never help love grow
Spread your wings my daunted soul
The time has come to go
I will not be hurried down
Or blackened by your lies
I must go and find my dream
And live in paradise
To bid you farewell
I am awaiting the sunrise
Gazing modestly through the coldest morning
Once it came you lied
Embracing us over autumn´s proud treetops
I stand motionless
In a parade of falling rain
You voice I cannot hear
As I am falling again
Devotion eludes
And in sadness I lumber
In my own ashes I am standing without a soul
She wept and whispered: "I know..."
We walked into the night
Am I to bid you farewell?
Why can't you see that I try
When every tear I shed
Is for you?
Rose D. I really could of used you for the lyric game. I like what you have posted. One more from me then I must eat!
You have great taste in music, I love the lyrics. Rawk on! :)
"Always Be You"
Fly me gently through the seasons
With your love along the way
There'll be light in every shadow
See forever and a day
Cause I'm already here with you in heaven
Yes and I believe that my lucky star
Shone like the sun on the day that I met you
Flashed upon my inward eye
Such an impression
I will never forget you
Darlin' it will always be you
Mama it will Always Be You
Now all my life I've been a rover
But then you did me like you did
And in your arms I was turned over
Baby your sweet lovin'
Got me where I live
And I'm already here with you in heaven
Yes and I believe you laid a spell on me
Cause when I looked around
You're all I see
I just can't live without you
Darlin' it will Always Be You
Darlin' it will Always Be You
It will Always Be You!
"Poison"
The partisans not the artisans
Are doing their dirty show
But I ripped my pants
Doing some dance
That I learned in France
And they think there ain't nothin' to know
Used, abused
Locked up ,beaten and fined
But I got free, Copped a plea
And I can see
That there ain't no freedom bell gonna chime
This time.
Truth and love are my law and worship
Form and conscience my manifestation and guide
Nature and peace are my shelter and companion
Order is my attitude
Beauty and perfection
Are my attack
False faces ,Fast company
A night of thrills,With no jealousy,no poison
Nobody's tool ,will be a public fool
To manipulate the masses,Who lie and cheat
And eat their meat
While the rest all clean their glasses
In status classes
Opeth--In my time of need.
I can't see the meaning of this life I'm leading
I try to forget you as you forgot me
This time there is nothing left for you to take
This is goodbye
Summer is miles and miles away
And no one would ask me to stay
And I should contemplate this change
To ease the pain
And I should step out of the rain
Turn away
Close to ending it all, I am drifting through the
stages
Of the rapture born within this loss
Thoughts of death inside
Tear me apart from the core of my soul
Summer is miles and miles away
And no one would ask me to stay
And I should contemplate this change
To ease the pain
And I should step out of the rain
Turn away
At times the dark's fading slowly
But it never sustains
Would someone watch over me
In my time of need?
Summer is miles and miles away
And no one would ask me to stay
And I should contemplate this change
To ease the pain
And I should step out of the rain
Turn away
"Hide"
Hide your bones
hide your skin
hide your money
hide your sin
hide your heart
hide you soul
shut your mouth
say you don't know
hide your face
hide your name
hide your past
hide your pain
cut your scars
on a window pane
hide your tears in the rain
and every night you go to sleep
your still hidin in your dreams
don't want no one to know you well
your so afraid you don't know yourself
hide your head
hide your skin
hide your price for everything
hide your sadness
hide your smile
hide your truth and your denial
and everynight you go to sleep
your still hidin in your dreams
don't want no one to know you well
your so afraid you don't know yourself
Hide your bones
hide your skin
hide your price for everything
ya turn away
and shift the blame
now ya feel no shame
and everynight you go to sleep
your still hidin in your dreams
don't want no one to know you well
your so afraid you don't know yourself
