    Blonde Redhead - Equus

    Allow me to show you
    The way which I adore you
    Allow me to show you
    The way which I adore you

    Sometimes I think I must
    Just let you be, let you be a horse
    All I want is to be a rider
    To be part of you

    Allow me to show you
    The way which I adore you
    Allow me to show you
    The way which I adore you

    Sometimes I think I must
    Just let you be, let you be a horse
    All I want is to be a rider
    Afraid, so afraid to lose you
    If someone looks at you
    Turn into donkey
    Pretend you are lame

    Allow me to show you
    The way which I adore you
    Allow me to show you
    The way which I adore you

    Allow me to show you
    The way which I adore you
    Allow me to show you
    The way which I adore you

    Equus by nature, timid creature
    Ready to run away
    Equus by nature, timid creature
    Cares nothing for the plans they laid

    Allow me to show you
    The way which I adore you
    Allow me to show you
    The way which I adore you

    Allow me to show you
    The way which I adore you
    Allow me to show you
    The way which I adore you

    Allow me to show you
    The way which I adore you
    Allow me to show you
    The way which I adore you

    Sonic Youth - Unmade Bed

    Look who's come back home again
    Loser looking for his lucky break
    This time he says he just needs a friend
    Ain't on the run, he ain't on the take

    Can you unlock this door, babe?
    Will you just undo the chain?
    Will you take your time before you mix-up love
    This love and pain

    Loneliness lays down his head
    Wants to get you high, better take it now
    A man like that's like an unmade bed
    Staying there searching for another way out

    Do you really even want this?
    Maybe you just don't care?
    All I know it just takes one kiss, baby
    For you, he's never there

    Hey, I know it's kinda hard
    And maybe this time it will never end
    Hit and run lover back in your heart
    All those answered prayers you should never have sent
    'cause now that you're in his arms, babe
    Know that you're just in his way
    Suckered by his fatal charm
    Oh girl, it's time we get away

    I push my fingers into my eyes...
    It's the only thing that slowly stops the ache...
    But it's made of all the things I have to take...
    Jesus, it never ends, it works it's way inside...
    If the pain goes on...
    Aaaaaaaah!

    I have screamed until my veins collapsed
    I've waited as my time's elapsed
    Now, All I do is live with so much fate
    I've wished for this, I've *****ed at that
    I've left behind this little fact:
    You cannot kill what you did not create
    I've gotta say what I've gotta say
    And then I swear I'll go away
    But I can't promise you'll enjoy the noise
    I guess I'll save the best for last
    My future seems like one big past
    You're left with me 'cause you left me no choice

    I push my fingers into my eyes
    It's the only thing that slowly stops the ache
    If the pain goes on,
    I'm not gonna make it!

    Pull me back together
    Or separate the skin from bone
    Leave me all the Pieces, then you can leave me
    alone
    Tell me the reality is better than the dream
    But I found out the hard way,
    Nothing is what it seems!

    I push my fingers into my eyes
    It's the only thing that slowly stops the ache
    But it's made of all the thing I have to take
    Jesus, it never ends, it works it's way inside
    If the pain goes on,
    I'm not gonna make it!

    All I've got...all I've got is insane...
    All I've got...all I've got is insane...
    All I've got...all I've got is insane!
    All I've got...all I've got is insane!

    I push my fingers into my eyes
    It's the only thing that slowly stops the ache
    But it's made of all the thing I have to take
    Jesus, it never ends, it works it's way inside
    If the pain goes on,
    I'm not gonna make it!

    Mr. Crowley
    by: Ozzy Ozbourn


    Mr. Crowley, what went on in your head
    Mr. Crowley, did you talk with the dead
    Your lifestyle to me seemed so tragic
    With the thrill of it all
    You fooled all the people with magic
    You waited on Satan's call

    Mr. Charming, did you think you were pure
    Mr. Alarming, in nocturnal rapport
    Uncovering things that were sacred manifest on this earth
    Conceived in the eye of a secret
    And they scattered the afterbirth

    Mr. Crowley, won't you ride my white horse
    Mr. Crowley, it's symbolic of course
    Approaching a time that is classic
    I hear maidens call
    Approaching a time that is drastic
    Standing with their backs to the wall

    Was it polemically sent
    I wanna know what you meant
    I wanna know
    I wanna know what you meant

    I got a few here...

    Pavement - Cut Your Hair

    Darling don't you go and cut your hair
    Do you think it's gonna make him change?
    I'm just a boy with a new haircut
    And that's a pretty nice haircut
    Charge it like a puzzle
    Hit men wearing muzzles
    Hesitate you die
    Look around, around
    The second drummer drowned
    His telephone is found

    Music scene is crazy
    Bands start up each and every day
    I saw another one just the other day
    A special new band
    I remember lying
    I don't remember a line
    I don't remember a word
    But I don't care, I care, I really don't care
    Did you see the drummer's hair?

    Advertising looks and chops a must
    No big hair!
    Songs mean a lot, when songs are bought
    And so are you
    Face right down to the practice room
    Tension and fame's our career
    Career, career, career, career, career


    Built To Spill - Center Of The Universe

    I heard what I said to you
    And it was so out of sync
    With the way I wanted to
    Make myself out to seem
    I don't like this air
    But that doesn't mean I'll stop breathing it
    Who doesn't think they're at
    The center of the universe and being it
    Don't look now
    Just keep watching your TV,
    Hating what's to see
    Waiting for someone to say something that's right!

    I heard what I said to you
    Thought it was all understood
    But I wasn't getting through
    I'd go on if I could
    I don't like this air
    But that doesn't mean I'll stop breathing it
    Who doesn't think they're at
    The center of the universe and being it
    Don't look now
    Just keep watching your TV,
    Hating what's to see
    Waiting for someone to say something that's right!


    Pavement - Elevate Me

    Well you greet the tokens and stamps
    Underneath the fake-oil burning lamps
    In the city we forgot to name
    The concourse is four-wheeled shame
    And the courthouse's double-breast
    I'd like to check out your public protests
    Why you're complainin, ta!

    Those who sleep with electric guitars
    Range rovin' with the cinema stars
    And I wouldn't want to shake their hands
    'cause they're in such a high-protein land
    Because there's fourty different shades of black
    So many fortresses and ways to attack
    So why you complaining? Ta!


    Meat Puppets - Backwater

    And when I wake up in the morning
    To feel the daybreak on my face
    There's a blood that's flowing through the feeling
    With a knife to open up the sky's veins
    And some things will never change
    They just stand there, looking backwards
    Half unconcious from the pain
    It may seem re-arranged
    In the backwater swirling, there is something that'll never change

    And when I should've been done a long time
    Laughs, and says 'I find ways'
    Just when we're sheltered under paper
    The rockets come at us sideways
    And some things will never change
    They just stand there, looking backwards
    Half unconcious from the pain
    It may seem re-arranged
    In the backwater swirling, there is something that'll never change

    And when I wake up in the morning
    To feel the daybreak on my face
    There's a blood that's flowing through the ceiling
    With a knife to open up the sky's veins
    And some things will never change
    They just stand there, looking backwards
    Half unconcious from the pain
    It may seem re-arranged
    In the backwater swirling, there is something that'll never change

    Some things will never change
    They just stand there, looking backwards
    Half unconcious from the pain
    It may seem re-arranged
    In the backwater swirling, there is something that'll never change

    Voltaire - When You're Evil

    (I might have some of these wrong)

    When the Devil is too busy
    And death's a bit too much
    They call on me, by name you see
    For my special touch

    To the gentlemen I'm Miss Fortune,
    To the ladies I'm Sir Prise.
    But call me by any name,
    Any way it's all the same

    I'm the fly in your soup
    I'm the pebble in your shoe
    I'm the demon in your bed
    I'm the bump on every head
    I'm the peel on which you slip
    I'm the pin in every hip
    I'm the thorn in your side
    Makes you wriggle and writhe

    And it's so easy when you're evil,
    This is the life you see,
    The devil tips his hat to me
    I do it all because I'm evil
    And I do it all for free
    Your tears are all the pay I'll ever need

    While there's children to make sad
    While there's candy to be had
    While there's pockets left to pick
    While there's grannies left trip down the stairs,
    I'll be there, I'll be waiting 'round the corner
    It's a game, I'm glad I'm in it
    'cause there's one born every minute

    And it's so easy when you're evil,
    This is the life you see,
    The devil tips his hat to me
    I do it all because I'm evil
    And I do it all for free
    Your tears are all the pay I'll ever need

    I pledge my allegiance to all things dark and
    I promise on my damned soul to do as I am told
    For Beelzebub has never seen a soldier quite like me
    Not only does his job, but does it happily

    I'm the fear that keeps you wake
    I'm your shadows on the wall
    I'm the monsters things become
    I'm the nightmare in your skull
    I'm the dagger in your back
    An extra turn upon the rack
    I'm the quivering of your heart
    A stabbing pain, a sudden start

    And it's so easy when you're evil,
    This is the life you see,
    The devil tips his hat to me
    I do it all because I'm evil
    And I do it all for free
    Your tears are all the pay I'll ever need

    And I do it all for free
    Your tears are all the pay I'll ever need

    And I do it all for free
    Your tears are all the pay I'll ever need

    It gets so lonely, being evil...
    What I'd do to see a smile
    Even for a little while
    And no one loves you when you're evil...

    ...

    Ah, I'm lying through my teeth
    Your tears are all the company I need

    Lively Motion, by Megumi Hayashibara

    [Instrumental Intro]

    kotae yori mo daiji na mono hitotsu hitotsu mitsuketeiku

    [Short Instrumental]

    itsumo nanika umaku ikanai to

    [Guitar Solo]

    kimi ga iru yo boku ga iru yo sore ijou nani mo iranai
    umareta imi sagasu yori mo ima ikiteru koto kanjite

    :anime::anime: Want it in English? Can't help you.

    [EDIT]There are very few american songs I enjoy listening to. Most "sing" about things like sex and death, usually with an unbelievable number of swears. This particular song, when translated, has no swears, and says nothing about sex or death. Besides that, it is a very well-sung song by a very talented person. Megumi Hayashibara has more talent in her little finger than all american and canadian musicians have combined. Don't get me wrong. I'm not dissing Canada, I'm just saying that a lot of their musicians are very poor singers.

    These days, all you need to be popular in the USA is: A criminal record, be butt-ugly, swear a lot, no singing voice, and have a stupid hair-style.

    Anyway, I'll cut my rant short, and end with a simple statement: Japan surpasses all other earthly countries. [/EDIT]

    Ah, I finally found the lyrics to one of my favorite songs of all time.

    The Spirit We
    Rachael Sage

    I could be an angel dressed in the devil’s clothes
    But they’ll never let me in, not as long as anger grows
    Are you willing to forgive what you never can forget
    Where I come from is my country and that I can’t regret

    Easily you come to me summoning The Spirit We
    Only have a minute to never grow old

    You say I’m not welcome in your family’s home
    They are ready for divorce and they do not even know
    All the ways that I behave in the safety of your heart
    Not willing to receive what may be the softest part
    So willing to deceive-so very in the dark

    Easily you come to me summoning The Spirit We
    Only have a minute to never grow old
    Easily you climb inside hoping for a place to hide
    In each others inner-cities of the soul

    Oh...I could wait for you to never come through
    But oh...I will pray for you, pray for you, pray for you
    To be true...ooh - oh - oh
    I will pray for you, I will pray for you

    Cause you are not a play thing nor am I but a toy
    You have all of my respect in this moment of rejoicing is
    Never very easy in colonies of doubt
    I’ve been conquering my own cause that’s what loves about
    Easily...never easily...
    Easily you come to me summoning The Spirit We

    I could be an angel dressed in the devil’s clothes
    But they’ll never let me in, not as long as anger grows
    Are you ready to retrieve what we never can restart
    I am more willing to bleed than I am to be apart

    Easily you come to me summoning The Spirit We
    Only have a minute to never grow old
    Easily you climb inside hoping for a place to hide
    In each others inner-cities of the soul

    The Offspring - Staring At The Sun (I guess they don't suck as much as I thought... only partially :p)

    Maybe life is like a ride on a freeway
    Dodging bullets while you're trying to find your way
    Everyone's around, but no one does a damn thing
    It brings me down, but I won't let them

    If I seem bleak
    Well you'd be correct
    And if I don't speak
    It's cause I can't disconnect
    But I won't be burned by the reflection
    Of the fire in your eyes
    As you're staring at the sun

    When I ran I didn't feel like a runaway
    When I escaped I didn't feel like I got away
    There's more to living than only surviving
    Maybe I'm not there, but I'm still trying

    Though you hear me
    I don't think that you relate
    My will is something
    That you can't confiscate
    So forgive me, but I won't be frustrated
    By the destruction in your eyes
    As you're staring at the sun

    When I ran I didn't feel like a runaway
    When I escaped I didn't feel like I got away
    There's more to living than only surviving
    Maybe I'm not there, but I'm still trying

    Though you hear me
    I don't think you relate
    My will is something
    That you can't confiscate
    So forgive me, but I won't be frustrated

    The Killers - Jenny Was A Friend Of Mine

    We took a walk last night, but I thought it wasn't the same.
    We had a fight on the promenade out in the rain
    She said she loved me, but she had somewhere to go
    She couldn't scream while I held her close, I swore I'd never let her go
    Tell me what you wanna know
    Oh come on, oh come on, oh come on
    There ain't no motive for this crime,
    Jenny was a friend of mine
    So come on, oh come on, oh come on.

    I know my rights, I've been here all day and it's time
    For me to go, so let me know if it's alright
    I just can't take this, I swear I told you the truth
    She couldn't scream while I held her close, I swore I'd never let her go

    Tell me what you wanna know
    Oh come on, oh come on, oh come on
    And then you whisper in my hear
    I know what you're doing here
    So come on, oh come on, oh come on
    There ain't no motive for this crime
    Jenny was a friend of mine
    Oh come on, oh come on, oh come on

    Crossfade-Cold
    Looking back at me I see that I never really got it right
    I never stopped to think of you, Im always wrapped up in things I cannot win
    You are the antidote that gets me by, something strong like a drug that gets me highWhat I really meant to say, is I’m sorry for the way I am
    I never meant to be so cold, never meant to be so cold
    What I really meant to say, is I'm sorry for the way I amI never meant to be so cold, never meant to be so Cold to you I’m sorry about all thelies,maybeia different light,You can see me stand on my own again cause now I can see hereYou are the antidote that got me by something strong like a drug that got me highWhat I really meant to say is I’m sorry for the way I am
    I never meant to be so cold, never meant to be so cold
    What I really meant to say, is I’m sorry for the way I am
    I never meant to be so cold, never meant to be so cold
    I never really wanted you see the screwed side of me
    That I keep locked inside of me so deep, it always seems to get to me
    I never really wanted you to go so many things you should have known
    I guess all we need is no I never meant to be so coldWhat I really meant to say is I’m sorry for the way I am
    I never meant to be so cold, never meant to be so cold
    What I really meant to say is I’m sorry for the way I am
    I never meant to be so cold never meant to be so cold

    I like this song I think its all of it im not sure tho :p

    Iron Maiden- Flight of Icarus

    As the sun breaks, above the ground,
    an old man stands on the hill.
    As the ground warms to the first rays of light,
    a birdsong shatters the still.

    His eyes are ablaze,
    see the madman in his gaze.

    Fly, on your way, like an eagle,
    fly as high as the sun,
    on your way, like an eagle,
    fly and touch the sun.

    Now the crowd breaks and a young boy appears
    looks the old man in the eye
    as he spreads his wings and shouts to the crowd
    "In the name of God my father I fly!"

    His eyes seem so glazed
    as he flies on the wings of a dream.
    Now he knows his father betrayed
    now his wings turn to ashes to ashes his grave.

    Fly, on your way, like an eagle,
    fly as high as the sun,
    on your way, like an eagle,
    fly as high as the sun.

    Fly, on your way, like an eagle,
    fly as high as the sun,
    On your way, like an eagle,
    fly and touch the sun.

    The Killers - Mr. Brightside

    I'm coming out of my cage
    And I've been doing just fine
    Gotta gotta be down
    Because I want it all
    It started out with a kiss
    How did it end up like this?
    It was only a kiss, it was only a kiss
    Now I'm falling asleep
    And she's calling a cab
    While he's having a smoke
    And she's taking a drag
    Now they're going to bed
    And my stomach is sick
    And it's all in my head
    But she's touching his chest,
    Now, he takes off her dress
    Now, let me go

    I just can't look, it's killing me
    And taking control
    Jealousy, turning saints into the sea
    Swimming through sick lullabies
    Choking on your alibis
    But it's just the price I pay
    Destiny is calling me
    Open up my eager eyes
    'cause I'm Mr. Brightside

    The Killers - Somebody Told Me

    Breaking my back just to know your name
    Seventeen tracks and I've had it with this game
    I'm breaking my back just to know your name
    But Heaven ain't close in a place like this
    Anything goes but don't blink, you might miss
    'cause Heaven ain't close in a place like this
    I said Heaven ain't close in a place like this
    Bring it back down, bring it back down tonight
    Never thought I'd let a rumour ruin my moonlight

    Well somebody told me
    You had a boyfriend
    Who looks like a girlfriend
    That I had in February of last year
    It's not confidential
    I've got potential

    Ready? Let's roll onto something new
    Taking its toll and I'm leaving without you
    Ready? Let's roll onto something new
    But Heaven ain't close in a place like this
    Anything goes but don't blind, you might miss
    'cause Heaven ain't close in a place like this
    I said Heaven ain't close in a place like this
    Bring it back down, bring it back down tonight
    Never thought I'd let a rumour ruin my moonlight

    Well somebody told me
    You had a boyfriend
    Who looks like a girlfriend
    That I had in February of last year
    It's not confidential
    I've got potential
    A rushin', a rushin' around

    Pace yourself from me
    I said maybe, baby, please
    But I just don't know now

    Somebody told me
    You had a boyfriend
    Who looks like a girlfriend
    That I had in February of last year
    It's not confidential
    I've got potential
    A rushin', a rushin' around



    The Killers - All The Things That I've Said

    When there's nowhere else to run
    Is there room for one more son
    One more son
    If you can hold on
    If you can hold on,
    Hold on,

    I wanna stand up I wanna let go
    You know, you know - No you don't, you don't
    I wanna shine on in the hearts of men
    I want a meaning from the back of my broken hand
    Another head aches, another heart breaks
    I am so much older than I can take
    And my affection, well it comes and goes
    I need direction to perfection, no no no no

    Help me out
    Yeah, you know you gotta help me out
    Yeah, oh don't you put me on the backburner
    You know you gotta help me out

    And when there's nowhere else to run
    Is there room for one more son?
    These changes ain't changing me
    The cold-hearted boy I used to be

    Yeah, you know you gotta help me out
    Yeah, oh don't you put me on the backburner
    You know you gotta help me out
    You're gonna bring yourself down
    You're gonna bring yourself down
    You're gonna bring yourself down

    I got soul, but I'm not a soldier
    I got soul, but I'm not a soldier
    I got soul, but I'm not a soldier
    I got soul, but I'm not a soldier
    I got soul, but I'm not a soldier

    I got soul, but I'm not a soldier
    I got soul, but I'm not a soldier
    I got soul, but I'm not a soldier
    I got soul, but I'm not a soldier

    I got soul, but I'm not a soldier
    I got soul, but I'm not a soldier

    Yeah, you know you gotta help me out
    Yeah, oh don't you put me on the backburner
    You know you gotta help me out
    You're gonna bring yourself down
    You're gonna bring yourself down
    Yeah, oh don't you put me on the backburner
    You're gonna bring yourself down
    You're gonna bring yourself down

    Over and out, last call for sin
    While everyone's lost, the battle is won
    With all these things that I've done
    All these things that I've done
    If you can hold on
    If you can hold on



    The Killers - On Top

    Remember Rio and get down
    It's another DJ, it's another town
    She's been trying to tell me to hold tight
    But I've been waiting this whole night
    But I've been down across the road or two
    But now I've found the velvet sun
    That shines on me and you

    In the back, uh huh, I can't crack
    We're on top
    It's just a shimmy and a shake, uh huh, I can't fake
    We're on top
    We're on top

    The day is breaking, were' still here
    Your body's shaking, and it's clear
    You really need it, so let go
    And leat me beat it, but you know
    That I've been down across the road or two
    But now I've found the velvet sun
    That shines on me and you

    In the back, uh huh, I can't crack
    We're on top
    It's just a shimmy and a shake, uh huh, I can't fake
    We're on top
    We bring the bump to the grind, uh huh, I don't mind
    We're on top
    It's just a shimmy and a shake, uh huh, I can't fake
    We're on top
    We're on top

    And we don't mean to satisfy tonight
    So get your eyes off of my bride tonight
    'cause I don't need to satisfy tonight
    It's like a cigarette in the mouth
    Or a handshake in the doorway
    I look at you and smile because I'm fine

    And we don't mean to satisfy tonight
    So get your eyes off of my bride tonight
    'cause I don't need to satisfy tonight
    It's like a cigarette in the mouth
    Or a handshake in the doorway
    I look at you and smile because I'm fine

    Ahh, been listening to my Foo Fighters CD a lot recently... (and sorry for the double post or some such ;P Can't help myself)

    ~ ~ ~

    Foo Fighters - Monkey Wrench

    What have we done with innocence?
    It disappeared with time, it never made much sense
    Adolescent residence
    Wasting another night on planning my revenge

    One in ten
    One in ten
    One in ten

    Don't wanna be your monkey wrench
    One more indecent accident
    I'd rather leave than suffer this
    I'll never be your monkey wrench

    All this time to make amends
    Whadya do when all your enemies are friends?
    Now and then I'll try to bend
    Under pressure, wind up snapping in the end

    One in ten
    One in ten
    One in ten

    Don't wanna be your monkey wrench
    One more indecent accident
    I'd rather leave than suffer this
    I'll never be your monkey wrench

    One last thing before I quit
    I never wanted anymore than I could fit
    into my head, I still remember every single
    Word you said and all the ****
    That somehow came along with it
    Still there's one thing that comforts me
    Since I was always caged and now I'm free

    Don't wanna be your monkey wrench
    One more indecent accident
    I'd rather leave than suffer this
    I'll never be your monkey wrench

    Foo Fighters - New Way Home

    Have you found your way around the down and out?
    I know it must seem long, so long
    I'm still trying to keep this time from running out
    Head down, always moving on and on and on

    I never heard this warning
    Another early morning takes me, wakes me into
    If you can manage me
    I'll try to manage you, but lately it's all I ever do

    I felt like this on my way home,
    I'm not scared
    I' pass the boats and the kingdoms
    I'm not scared

    I'll never tell you the secrets I'm holding
    I know these things must bore you
    But I can't find another way
    I'll never tell you the secrets I'm holding
    I love this leash that holds me
    When I try to run away

    I'm not scared
    I felt like this on my way home,
    I'm not scared
    I' pass the boats and the kingdoms
    I'm not scared
    I felt like this on my way home,
    I'm not scared
    I' pass the boats and the kingdoms
    I'm not scared...

    I felt like this on my way home,
    I'm not scared
    I' pass the boats and the kingdoms
    I'm not scared
    I felt like this on my way home,
    I'm not scared
    I' pass the boats and the kingdoms
    I'm not scared
    I felt like this on my way home,
    I'm not scared
    I' pass the boats and the kingdoms
    I'm not scared!
    I felt like this on my way home!
    I'm not scared!
    I' pass the boats and the kingdoms!
    I'm not scared!
    I felt like this on my way home!
    I'm not scared!
    I' pass the boats and the kingdoms!
    I'm not scared!
    I felt like this on my way home!
    I'm not scared!
    I' pass the boats and the kingdoms!
    I'm not scared!
    I felt like this on my way home!
    I'm not scared!
    I' pass the boats and the kingdoms!
    I'm not scared!
    I'm not scared!

    Foo Fighters - Hey, Johnny Park

    Come and I'll take you under
    This beautiful bruise's colors
    Everything fades in time, it's true
    Wish that I had another
    Stab at the undercover
    Was it a change in mind for you?

    It's impossible
    I can't let it out
    You'll never know
    Am I selling you out
    Sit and watch
    Your every mood

    Your eyes can remind me of
    Angels that hover above
    Eyes that can change from blind to blue

    It's impossible
    I can't let it out
    You'll never know
    Am I selling you out
    Sit and watch
    Your every mood

    Now that I've found my reward
    Throw it away long before
    I'd share a piece of mine with you

    It's impossible
    I can't let it out
    You'll never know
    Am I selling you out
    Sit and watch
    Your every mood

    Foo Fighters - Wind Up

    I have a choice between the bat or the belt
    Each time I hear about the hand you've been dealt
    Spare me confession, it's confession you sell
    Maybe I'll fall behind, but I don't mind
    Because I'll catch up

    On a song that's indelible like manimal
    I hope you never see me wind up

    Will I be happy on the back of the shelf
    Will you be happy when we're sharing a cell
    Spare me the questions since you know me so well
    Some day you'll realize that I get shy and I choke up

    On a song that's indelible like manimal
    I hope you never see me wind up
    What's wrong with this animal, I'm terrible
    I hope you never see me wind up

    Farewell my sweet paramania
    Farewell my sweet paramania

    My only promise is that I'll never tell
    Keep you at a distance from the things that I've felt
    I'll bite the bullet, take the beating until
    I take it all back anyway
    What was I supposed to say?

    On a song that's indelible like manimal
    I hope you never see me wind up
    What's wrong with this animal, I'm terrible
    I hope you never see me wind up

    I was born at daybreak
    To the road I did take
    Trembling as the ground shakes
    Under my feet
    Cracked in the stone heat

    Never ending motion
    Way across the ocean
    Into your devotion
    Long have I gone
    So far from my home

    Chorus:
    What to do with this love that I'm in
    I have given you all of my soul
    Flying all my life like a rose in the wind
    Tell me why I am always alone

    One my way home

    Dreaming always begins
    Find a door that's opening
    Something there is shining
    The light in your eyes
    When you were all mine

    All alone as I wake
    Moving in a new place
    Shivering as I trace
    A road of my own
    Cut by the deep cold

    What to do with this love that I'm in
    I have given you all of my soul
    Flying all my life like a rose in the wind
    Tell me why I am always alone

    Hang on to me tight and a rose in the wind
    Will be with you wherever you go
    All the way back home

    Can I take you back there
    Drifting in the warm air
    Say you'll follow anywhere
    All of our nights
    Into the jade skies

    I'll be true to you
    Flying over the moon
    Lying in the bamboo
    I'll always know
    The light in the window

    What to do with this love that I'm in
    I have given you all of my soul
    Flying all my life like a rose in the wind
    Tell me why I am always alone
    alone

    Badly Drawn Boy - Dissilusion

    Seems you created your own illusion
    Fuelled by an image of me
    Well I couldn't stay at your side
    It wouldn't be right
    A picture that I just don't see
    Why do you have to make it so complicated
    Can't it just be beautiful
    I don't want to stifle your flight
    I didn't mean to fall in love

    Always in pursuit of the perfect people
    Oh and I can see that it shows
    But there's just an innocence in you I wanna wring out
    I know it could be beautiful

    But I don't want a part of some situation
    I don't want to be in that boat
    I don't want to stifle your flight
    I didn't mean to fall in love

    Seems you created your own illusion
    Fuelled by an image of me
    Well I couldn't stay at your side
    It wouldn't be right
    A picture that I just don't see

    ........*sniff*

    Graduation

    And so we talked all night about the rest of our lives
    Where we're gonna be when we turn 25
    I keep thinking times will never change
    Keep on thinking things will always be the same
    But when we leave this year we won't be coming back
    No more hanging out cause we're on a different track
    And if you got something that you need to say
    You better say it right now cause you don't have another day
    Cause we're moving on and we can't slow down
    These memories are playing like a film without sound
    And I keep thinking of that night in June
    I didn't know much of love
    But it came too soon
    And there was me and you
    And then we got real cool
    Stay at home talking on the telephone with me
    We'd get so excited, we'd get so scared
    Laughing at our selves thinking life's not fair
    And this is how it feels

    As we go on
    We remember
    All the times we
    Had together
    And as our lives change
    Come whatever
    We will still be
    Friends forever

    So if we get the big jobs
    And we make the big money
    When we look back now
    Will our jokes still be funny?
    Will we still remember everything we learned in school?
    Still be trying to break every single rule
    Will little brainy Bobby be the stockbroker man?
    Can Heather find a job that won't interfere with her tan?
    I keep, I keep thinking that it's not goodbye
    Keep on thinking it's a time to fly
    And this is how it feels

    As we go on
    We remember
    All the times we
    Had together
    And as our lives change
    Come whatever
    We will still be
    Friends forever

    La, la, la, la
    Yeah, yeah, yeah
    La, la, la, la
    We will still be friends forever

    Will we think about tomorrow like we think about now?
    Can we survive it out there?
    Can we make it somehow?
    I guess I thought that this would never end
    And suddenly it's like we're women and men
    Will the past be a shadow that will follow us 'round?
    Will these memories fade when I leave this town
    I keep, I keep thinking that it's not goodbye
    Keep on thinking it's a time to fly

    As we go on
    We remember
    All the times we
    Had together
    And as our lives change
    Come whatever
    We will still be
    Friends forever

    I Like Music!

    Meat Puppets - "Plateau"

    Many a hand has scaled the grand old face of the plateau
    Some belong to strangers, and some to folks we know

    Holy ghosts and talk show hosts are plated in the sand
    To beautify the foothills and shake the many hands

    There's nothing on the top
    But a bucket and a mop
    And an illustrated book about birds

    You see a lot up there
    But don't be scared
    Who needs action when you've got words?

    Finish with the mop, and you can stop and look at what you've done
    The plateau's clean, no dirt to be seen, and the work you did was fun

    There's nothing on the top
    But a bucket and a mop
    And an illustrated book about birds

    You see a lot up there
    But don't be scared
    Who needs action when you've got words?

    The many hands began to scan around for the next plateau
    Some said it was Greenland, some said Mexico

    Others decided it was nowhere except for where they stood
    But those were all just guesses, wouldn't help you if I could



    Fugazi - "Suggestion"

    Why can’t I walk down a street
    With suggestion

    Why can’t I walk down a street
    Free of suggestion

    Is my body my only trait
    In the eyes of men?
    In the eyes of men?

    I've got some skin
    And you want to look in
    I’ve got some…

    There lays no reward in what you discover
    You spent yourself, boy
    Watching me suffer
    Suffer your words, suffer your eyes, suffer your hands

    Suffer your interpretation
    Of what it is (x7)
    To be a man

    I've got some skin
    And you want to look in
    I’ve got some…

    She does nothing to deserve it
    He looks to her ‘cause he wants to observe it
    We sit back like they taught us
    Keep quiet like they taught us
    He just wants, he wants to prove it
    She does nothing to remove it
    We don’t want anyone to mind us
    Play the roles that they assigned us
    She does nothing to conceal it
    He touches her ‘cause he wants to feel it
    We blame her
    For being there…

    But we are all guilty.

    Veruca Salt - Seether

    Seether is neither loose nor tight
    Seether is neither black nor white

    I try to keep her on a short leash
    I try to calm her down
    I try to ram her into the ground, yeah

    Can't fight the seether
    Can't fight the seether
    Can't fight the seether
    I can't see her 'til I'm foaming at the mouth

    Seether is neither big nor small
    Seether is the center of it all

    I try to knock her out
    I try to cram her back in my mouth, yeah

    Can't fight the seether

    But I know how to conceive her
    Oh she may not look like other girls
    She's a snarl-tooth seether, seether

    Can't fight the seether
    Can't fight the seether
    Can't fight the seether
    I can't see her 'til I'm foaming at the mouth



    Veruca Salt - Spiderman '79

    You're so nice, you tie me in a web
    And cradle me till dawn
    You're so deadly, that I can see your breath
    Beneath me when you're gone
    You're so windy, I'd like to pin you down
    And tack you to the wall

    Spiderman. Spiderman.

    Spider Sunday, you blaze up from the South
    With oil on your hands
    I'm streaked in grease and grime and idle mouths
    You spoiled all my plans

    Spiderman. Spiderman. Spiderman.

    I can't take more of that.
    I can't take more of that.
    I can't take more of that.
    I can't take more of that.

    Tiny truck stop, you lay me in a towel
    And savour me like a lamb
    You smell of corduroy and lemon drops,
    And reds pulled from a can
    I dream in black and white, I've long forgot
    Exactly who I am...

    A Spiderman. Spiderman. Spiderman. Oh, man. Spiderman. Spiderman. Spiderman.


    The Cure - Burn (don't think I've posted this one yet... and if I did... it's such a great song, it deserves to be posted again! :p)

    "Don't look, don't look," the shadows breathe
    Whispering me away from you
    "Don't wake at night to watch her sleep,
    You know that you will always see,
    This trembling, adored, tousled, bird-mad girl..."

    But every night I burn
    Every night I call your name
    Every night I burn
    Every night I fall again

    "Oh, don't talk of love," the shadows purr
    Murmuring me away from you
    "Don't talk of worlds that never were
    The end is all that's ever true
    There's nothing you can ever say,
    Nothing you can ever do..."

    Still every night I burn
    Every night I scream your name
    Every night I burn
    Every night the dream's the same
    Every night I burn
    Waiting for my only friend
    Every night I burn
    Waiting for the world to end

    "Just paint your face," the shadows smile
    Slipping me away from you
    "Oh it doesn't matter how you hide
    Find you if we're wanting to
    So slide back down and close your eyes
    Sleep a while, you must be tired..."

    But every night I burn
    Every night I call your name
    Every night I burn
    Every night I fall again
    Every night I burn
    Scream the animal scream
    Every night I burn
    Dream the crow black dream

    Dream the crow black dream...

    Gravity

    These are my favorite lyrics... I plan to sing it for audition...
    Gravity (Maaya Sakomoto)

    Been a long road to follow
    but there I go tomorrow
    without saying goodbye to yesterday.

    Are the memories I hold still valid?
    Or has the tears deluded them?

    Maybe this time tomorrow
    the rain will cease to follow
    and the mist will fade into a more today.

    Something somewhere out there keeps calling.

    Am I going home?
    Will I hear someone
    sing me solace to the silent moon?

    Zero Gravity, what's it like?

    Am I alone?

    Is somebody there
    beyond these heavy aching feet?

    Still the road keeps on telling me to go on.

    Something is pulling me.
    I feel the Gravity of it all.


    (Uh, is that right? I did it from memory.)
