Metallica - Dyers Eve

Dear Mother
Dear Father
What Is this Hell You Have Put Me Through
Believer
Deceiver
Day in Day out Live My Life Through You
Pushed onto Me What's Wrong or Right
Hidden from this Thing That They Call Life
Dear Mother
Dear Father
Every Thought I'd Think You'd Disapprove
Curator
Dictator
Always Cencoring My Every Move
Children Are Seen Bur Are Not Heard
Tear out Everything Inspired

Innocence
Torn from Me Without Your Shelter
Barred Reality
I'm Living Blindly

Dear Mother
Dear Father
Time Has Frozen Still What's Left to Be
Hear Nothing
Say Nothing
Cannot Face the Fact I Think for Me
No Guarantee,it's Life as Is
But Damn You for Not Giving Me My Chance
Dear Mother
Dear Father
You've Clipped My Wings Before I Learned to Fly
Unspoiled
Unspoken
I've Outgrown That F*cking Lullaby
Same Thing I've Always Heard from You
Do as I Say Not as I Do

Innocence
Torn from Me Without Your Shelter
Barred Reality
I'm Living Blindly
I'm in Hell Without You
Cannot Cope Without You Two
Shocked at the World That I See
Innocent Victim Please Rescue Me

Dear Mother
Dear Father
Hidden in Your World You've Made for Me
I'm Seething
I'm Bleeding
Ripping Wounds in Me That Never Heal
Undying Spite I Feel for You
Living out this Hell You Always Knew.



Metallica - The Unforgiven

New blood joins this earth
and quikly he's subdued
through constant pain disgrace
the young boy learns their rules

with time the child draws in
this whipping boy done wrong
deprived of all his thoughts
the young man struggles on and on he's known
a vow unto his own
that never from this day
his will they'll take away

what I've felt
what I've known
never shined through in what I've shown
never be
never see
won't see what might have been

what I've felt
what I've known
never shined through in what I've shown
never free
never me
so I dub thee unforgiven

they dedicate their lives
to running all of his
he tries to please them all
this bitter man he is
throughout his life the same
he's battled constantly
this fight he cannot win
a tired man they see no longer cares
the old man then prepares
to die regretfully
that old man here is me

what I've felt
what I've known
never shined through in what I've shown
never be
never see
won't see what might have been

what I've felt
what I've known
never shined through in what I've shown
never free
never me
so I dub the unforgiven

you labeled me
I'll label you
so I dub the unforgiven

Push!t - TOOL
I will choke until I swallow... Choke this infant here before me.
What is this but my reflection? Who am I to judge and strike you down?
But you're pushing and shoving me. You still love me and you push!t on me.
Rest your trigger on my finger, bang my head upon the fault line.
Take care not to make me enter. 'cause if I do we both may disappear.
But you're pushing me, shoving me. Push!t on me.
Slipping back into the gap again. I'm alive when you're touching me, alive when you're shoving me down.
But i'd trade it all for just a little bit of piece of mind. Put me somewhere I don't wanna be. Seeing someplace I don't wanna see. Never wanna see that place again.
Saw that gap again today as you were begging me to stay.
Managed to push myself away, and you, as well. If, when I say I may fade like a sigh if I stay, you minimize my movement anyway, I must persuade you another way.
There's no love in fear. Staring down the hole again. Hands upon my back again.
Survival is my only friend. Terrified of what may come.
Just remember I will always love you, even as I tear your fvcking throat away.
But it will end no other way.

Wonderful Tonight--Eric Clapton

It's late in the evening
She's wondering what clothes to wear
She puts on her make up
And brushes her long blond hair
And then she asked me
Do I look alright
And I say yes
You look wonderful tonight

We'd go to a party
And everyone turns to see
This beautiful lady is walking around with me
And then she asked me do you feel alright
And I say yes
I feel wonderful tonight

I feel wonderful
because I see the love right in your eyes
And the wonder of it all
Is that you just don't realize
How much I love thee

It's time to go home now
And I've got an aching head
So I give her the car keys
And she helps me to bed
And then I tell her
As I turned off the lights
I say my darling
You are wonderful tonight
Oh my darling
You are wonderful tonight.

the dead flag blues - Godspeed You Black Emperor!

The car is on fire.
And there's no driver at the wheel.
And the sewers are all muddied with a thousand lonely suicides,
And a dark wind blows.
The government is corrupt
And we're all on so many drugs with the radio on, and the curtains drawn.
We are trapped in the belly of this horrible machine
And the machine is bleeding to death.

The sun has fallen down
And the billboards were all leering,
And the flags were all dead,
at the top of their poles.

It went like this:
The buildings toppled in on themselves,
Mothers clutching babies, picked through the rubble,
and pulled out their hair.

The skyline was beautiful on fire, all twisted metal stretching upwards.
Everything washed in a thin orange haze.

I said "kiss me, you're beatuiful, these are truly the last days."
You grabbed my hand, and we fell into it, like a day dream, or a fever.......

-----xxxxx-----

We woke up one morning, and fell a little further down.
For sure it's the valley of death.

I opened up my wallet, and it's full of blood.

Portishead- Sour Times

To pretend no one can find
The fallacies of morning rose
Forbidden fruit, hidden eyes
Curtises that I despise in me
Take a ride, take a shot now
Cos nobody loves me
Its true
Not like you do
Covered by the blind belief
That fantasies of sinful screens
Bear the facts, assume the dye
End the vows no need to lie, enjoy
Take a ride, take a shot now
CHORUS
Who oo am I, what and why
Cos all I have left is my memories of yesterday
Ohh these sour times
CHORUS
After time the bitter taste
Of innocence decent or race
Scattered seeds, buried lives
Mysteries of our disguise revolve
Circumstance will decide ....
CHORUS
Cos nobody loves me
Its true
Not like you
Nobody loves.. me
Its true
Not, like, you.. do

Pearl Jam - Given to Fly

He could have tuned in, tuned in, but he tuned out
A bad time, nothing could save him
Alone in a corridor, waiting, locked out
He got up out of there ran for hundreds of miles...
He made it to the ocean
Had a smoke in a tree
The wind rose up, set him down on his knees

A wave came crashing like a fist to the jaw
Delivered him wings - "Hey, look at me now"
Arms wide open with the sea as his floor
Oh! He's flying! Oh, high! wide! Oh...

He floated back down cause he wanted to share
His key to the locks on the chains he saw everywhere
But first he was stripped, and then he was stabbed
By faceless men, well fvckers... he still stands.

And he still gives his love, he just gives it away...
The love he recieves is the love that is saved
And sometimes is seen a strange spot in the sky
A human being that was given to fly
He's flying! Oh, high! wide!
He's flying!

Sugar Ray - Every Morning

Every morning there's a halo hanging from the corner of my girl friend's
four post bed

i know it's not mine but i see if i can use it for the weekend for a one
night stand

couldn't understand
how did word get out
once again as predicted
left my broken heart open and you ripped it out

something's got me reeling,
stop me from believing turn me around again


said that we can do it
you know i wan to do it again

every morning
every morning when I...
shut the door baby, don't say a word

she always writes the wrong
she always writes, she always writes

shut the door baby, shut the door baby

Every morning morning there's a heartache hanging from the corner of
my girlfriends four post bed
i know it's not mine and i know she thinks
she loves me but i never can believe what she says

something's so deceiving
when you start believing
turn me around again
said we couldn't do it,
you know i want to do it again'

every morning
every morning when I...
shut the door baby, don't say a word
every morning
every morning when i...
shut the door baby, shut the door baby

she always writes the wrong for me

every morning there's a halo hanging from the corner of my girlfriend's
four post bed
i know it's no mine but i see if i can use it for the weekend or a one
night stand

shut the door baby don't say a word
every morning
every morning when i...
shut the door baby, shut the door baby

every morning
turn me around again
shut the door baby, don't say a word
every morning do it again
every morning when i wake up
every morning shut the door baby shut the door

Some of my all time favorites:


Be Quiet and Drive (Deftones)

This town don't feel mine
I'm fast to get away.
FAR

I dressed you
In her clothes
Now drive me
Far, away, away, away

It feels good
To know you're mine
Now drive me
Far, away, away, away

FAR...away

I don't care where, just far...away

And I don't care!!!

FAR....away
I don't care where just far....away
I don't care somewhere far....away


Say It Ain't So (Weezer)

Oh yeah
All right

Somebody's heine is crowding my icebox
Somebody's cold one is giving me chills
Guess I'll just close my eyes

Oh yeah
All right
Feels good
Inside

Flip on the Tele... Wrestle with Jimmy
Somethin' is bubblin' behind my butt
The bottle is ready to go

Say it ain't so a-woah-a-woah
Your drug is a heartbreaker
Say it ain't so a-woah-a-woah
My love is a life-taker

I can't confront you, I never could do...
That which might hurt you
Try and be cool, when I say:
This way is-a-waterslide-away-from-you-that-takes-you-futher-everyday!
Be cool

Say it ain't so a-woah-a-woah
Your drug is a heartbreaker
Say it ain't so a-woah-a-woah
My love is a life-taker!

Dear daddy, I write you in spite of fears of silence
You cleaned up, found Jesus, Things are good also I hear
This bottle of Stevens awakens ancient feelings...
Like father, Step-Father...
The son is drowning in the flood! Yeah Yeah-Yeah Yeah-Yeah!

Say it ain't so a-woah-a-woah
You drug is a heartbreaker.
Say it ain't so a-woah-a-woah.
My love is a life-taker.

Frank Sinatra - I've Got You Under My Skin
(lyrics written by Porter)

I've got you under my skin
I've got you deep in the heart of me
So deep in my heart, that you're really a part of me
I've got you under my skin

I've tried so not to give in
I've said to myself this affair never will go so well
But why should I try to resist, when baby will I know so well
That I've got you under my skin

I'd sacrifice anything come what might
For the sake of having you near
In spite of a warning voice that comes in the night
And repeats, repeats in my ear

Don't you know you fool, you never can win
Use your mentality, wake up to reality
But each time I do, just the thought of you
Makes me stop before I begin
'Cause I've got you under my skin

I would sacrifice anything come what might
For the sake of having you near
In spite of a warning voice that comes in the night
And repeats, how it yells in my ear

Don't you know you fool, there ain't no chance to win
Why not use your mentality, step up to reality
And each time I do, just the thought of you
Makes me stop before I begin
Because I've got you under my skin
Yeah you grabbed me, under my skin

I want you to want me
I need you to need me
I'd love you to love me
I'm beggin' you to beg me
I want you to want me
I need you to need me
I'd love you to love me
I'll shine up my old brown shoes
Put on a brand new shirt
Get home early from work
If you say that you love me
Didn't I, didn't I, didn't I see you cryin'
Oh, didn't I, didn't I, didn't I see you cryin'
Feeling all alone without a friend you know you feel like dying
Oh, didn't I, didn't I, didn't I see you cryin'

I want you to want me
I need you to need me
I'd love you to love me
I'm beggin' you to beg me
I'll shine up my old brown shoes
Put on a brand new shirt
Get home early from work
If you say that you love me
Didn't I, didn't I, didn't I see you cryin'
Oh, didn't I, didn't I, didn't I see you cryin'
Feeling all alone without a friend you know you feel like dying
Oh, didn't I, didn't I, didn't I see you cryin'

I want you to want me
I need you to need me
I'd love you to love me
I'm beggin' you to beg me
I want you to want me
I want you to want me
I want you to want me
I want you to want me

Lil Zane- Ways of the World

Money is mandatory, my game is self explanatory
I hit the blunt as I proceed to tell my ghetto stories
I'm into deep,all my peeps, bring them shovel stories
Some n***** strapped with their gats, tryin to kill your homez
Didn't know me, but met the heat when they ran up on me
Left his wife and 2 kids at the crib lonely
Got in the way of a stray bullet when I pass
Tryin to retaliate but keep that happin in the past
Ways of the world, how will I last when the economy crash
I'm goin all out gettin my cash
While spend mine open, wit my eyes on the world
Ghettos and jail cells gave me stories to tell
Body swells from the evil smells that I inhale
Evil set me up to fail make my life so real
People tape will caution times being lost my soul series to scar
I'm fighting off demons, it's the ways of the world

[2x]
Even though it hurts my chest
I'mma spar(?) till I lose my breath
lookin to sin since life began
Coming all the way out the water to get oxygen
Please father help me breathe again, at ease again

Looking at my self in the mirror, I took a second to think
Memories of bein babies, given milk to drink
Without a worry at mind, we would play all the time
They ain't callin it but b-ball took up most of my time
We were hard headed they all said it
From my parents to our teachers and even my preacher,
I say my prayers, I gave my momma grey hairs
She lives in fear
The thought of me not being there got her worried scared
They say I look just like my father, without the beard
they should have named that n***** magic and dissapear
A couple months out of the year, he reappears
its all the same, ain't nuttin changed, you still my n****
Don't hold a grudge, just give me love, I'm on my own
I'm kinda sober from a broken home
Wondering what's goin on, did I deserve this
Living in Atlanta got this little n**** nervous
Mama tried to feed us all, until she got laid off
Had the rats paid off, now we all laid off

[2x]
Even though it hurts my chest
I'mma spar(?) till I lose my breath
lookin to sin since life began
Coming all the way out the water to get oxygen
Please father help me breathe again, at ease again

Duckin the gun shots,at the age of 13
There was a war zone, so you choose your team
When the war strikes you better have a heart to fight
or get lost in the world when you loose your life
I would like to get blown, so I read and pray
Surviving day to day, running the streets of stray
Living all my self no company
You better meet the heat when you come for me
And when I die, burn alive, that's a wish of mine
I know that heaving in the zone ain't that hard to find
and when you make it they gone take it, that's a must you know
Don't think of gettin to the top without a problem or so
I take for caution as for evil gotta hit on me
I've been a bad boy for momma,dont you quit on me
They built a jail so when we rise they can crush our dreams
Two of the largest in the industry, erased from the scene
And I don't wanna be a target so I got with a team
They got a glow around their body and do sh*t you've never seen,
know what I mean?
Take it deep like summer eves, that's what we do, only humans
Tryin to get through the world with no confusion

When you close your eyes, can you state the pain, the misery
Bringin for you will rescue me
These are the ways of the world
Now I have to choose between life or lose my sanity
Go with the streets keep callin me
These are the ways of the world

Hm... both posts shows up perfect in Netscape. Very mangled in IE.

Is there a way for IE to do the proper decoding?

I'm listening to VitamineC's CD. Her Graduation song was our class song. For once I'm actually getting teary about missing people and the good ol' HS days.

But VitamineC's a superhottie, so I'm feelin' better already. ;) :)

I already posted yesterday, but the topic's back again. Does this song remind anyone else of Columbine?

Metallica - Ronnie

Story starts, quiet town
Small town boy, big time frown
Never talks, never plays
Different path, lost his way

Then streets of red, red I'm afraid
No confetti, no parade
Nothing happens in this boring place
But oh my god, how that all did change
Now they all pray
Blood stains wash away

*He said "lost my way"
This bloody day
Lost my way
I heard him, he said "lost my way"
This bloody day
Lost my way
All things wash away
But blood stained the sun red today

I always said, somethin' wrong
With little strange Ronnie Long
Never laughed, never smile
Talked alone, miles and miles

Gallow calls, son I say
Keep your smile, and laugh all day
Think once again, in this boring place
For little boys, how the soon change

Now they all pray
Blood stains wash away

* Repeat

Yeah, well all the green things die
When Ronnie go to the place
He said, "Don't you dare ask why
I'm cursed to wear this name"

Now we all know why children called him
Ronnie Frown
When he pulled that gun from his pocket
They'd all fall down

*Repeat
