"Sowing The Seeds Of Love" - Tears For Fears

 

High time we made a stand and shook up the views of the common man

And the lovetrain rides from coast to coast

D.J.'s the man we love the most

Could you be, could you be squeaky clean

And smash any hope of democracy?

As the headline says you're free to choose

There's egg on your face and mud on your shoes

One of these days they're gonna call it the blues

 

And anything is possible when you're Sowing the Seeds of Love

Anything is possible -- Sowing the Seeds of Love

I spy tears in their eyes

They look to the skies for some kind of divine intervention

Food goes to waste!

So nice to eat, so nice to taste

Politician Grannie with your high ideals

Have you no idea how the Majority feels?

So without love and a promised land

We're fools to the rules of a Government plan

Kick out the Style! Bring back the Jam!

 

Anything...

Sowing the Seeds

The Birds and the Bees

My Girlfriend and Me in Love

 

Feel the Pain

Talk about it

If you're a worried man -- then shout about it

Open hearts -- feel about it

Open minds -- think about it

Everyone -- read about it

Everyone -- scream about it!

Everyone

Everyone -- read about it, read about it

Read it in the books in the crannies and the nooks there are books to read

Chorus!

 

(Mr. England Sowing the Seeds of Love)

 

Time to eat all your words

Swallow your pride

Open your eyes

 

High time we made a stand and shook up the views of the common man

And the lovetrain rides from coast to coast

Every minute of every hour -- "I Love a Sunflower"

And I believe in lovepower, LovePower, LOVEPOWER!!!

 

Sowing the Seeds

An end to need

And the Politics of Greed

With Love

You know lyrics are fine and all, but I still can't get into a brand of music if I don't like the background music or the artist.

 

Music is a BIG part of my life. It's very therapudic and helpful in times of heavy emotion.....or when I'm bored too.

 

I don't like some of the more fake musicians. And I really can't stand those who don't make their own music. I don't want music put together by almost nothing but a computer. I realize computers and equipment are used in all genres to fine tune the music, but some people don't even try to make their own music. I don't care about their dance moves or flashy clothes. I hardly even watch videos.

*demands his Grammy*

We should form a band then considering YOU LIKE HIM AS WELL.

 

Let's call it 'Use Your Illusion is disabled with an unsightfully large penis'

 

Looks like money to me.

Silverchair - Ana's Song

Please die Ana

For as long as you're here we're not

You make the sound of laughter

And sharpened nails seem softer

 

And I need you now somehow

Open fire on the needs designed

On my knees for you

Open fire on my knees desires

What I need from you

 

Imagine pageant

In my head the flesh seems thicker

Sandpaper tears

Corrode the film

 

And I need you now somehow

Open fire on the needs designed

On my knees for you

Open fire on my knees desires

What I need from you

 

And you're my obsession

I love you to the bones

And Ana wrecks your life

Like an anorexia life

 

Open fire on the needs designed

On my knees for you

Open fire on my knees desires

What I need from you

KISS "Reason To Live" 1987~Crazy Nights

 

One of my all time favorites, as anyone who has suffered marital problems can relate.

 

~

Out of love

There's nobody around

All I hear is the sound of a broken heart

Out of time

No more waitin' for you

Now the hurtin's through, and a new day starts

 

And I feel a change in my life

I sailed into dark and endless nights

And made it alive...

 

[Chorus]

Everybody's got a reason to live, baby

Everybody's got a dream and a hunger inside

Everybody's got a reason to live, but it can't be your love

 

[Verse]

Out of touch

With myself for so long

Now a feelin' so strong comin' over me

Down the line

There's a lesson I've learned

You can love and get burned, if it has to be

 

And I see a change in my life

And I'm not alone when I'm strong inside

And I realize...

[Chorus]

 

And I feel a change in my life

And I'm not alone when I'm strong inside

And I realize...

 

[Chorus] X2

 

No it can't be your love

No it can't be your love

No it can't be your love

I like Ana's song indeed.

Garth Brooks

The River

 

You know a dream is like a river

Ever changin' as it flows

And a dreamer's just a vessel

That must follow where it goes

Trying to learn from what's behind you

And never knowing what's in store

Makes each day a constant battle

Just to stay between the shores.. and

 

I will sail my vessel

'Til the river runs dry

Like a bird upon the wind

These waters are my sky

I'll never reach my destination

If I never try

So I will sail my vessel

'Til the river runs dry

 

Too many times we stand aside

And let the waters slip away

'Til what we put off 'til tomorrow

Has now become today

So don't you sit upon the shoreline

And say you're satisfied

Choose to chance the rapids

And dare to dance the tide.. yes

 

I will sail my vessel

'Til the river runs dry

Like a bird upon the wind

These waters are my sky

I'll never reach my destination

If I never try

So I will sail my vessel

'Til the river runs dry

 

And there's bound to be rough waters

And I know I'll take some falls

But with the good Lord as my captain

I can make it through them all.. yes

 

I will sail my vessel

'Til the river runs dry

Like a bird upon the wind

These waters are my sky

I'll never reach my destination

If I never try

So I will sail my vessel

'Til the river runs dry

 

Yes, I will sail my vessel

'Til the river runs dry

'Til the river runs dry

Another Brick in the Wall (I, II + III, plus extras, for fun)

Pink Floyd

 

Part I

 

Daddy's gone across the ocean

Leaving just a memory

A snapshot in the family album

Daddy, what else did you leave for me?

Daddy, what you leave behind for me?

 

All in all it was just a brick in the wall

All in all, it was all just bricks in the wall

 

You! Yes, you! Stand still, laddy!

 

The Happiest Days of Our Lives

 

When we grew up and went to school

There were certain teachers who would

Hurt the children anyway they could

By pouring their derision upon anything we did

Exposing every weakness

However carefully hidden by the kid

 

But in the town it was well known

When they got home at night

Their fat and psycopathic wives

Would thrash them within inches of their lives

 

Part II

 

We don't need no education

We don't need no thought control

No dark sarcasm in the classroom

Teacher, leave them kids alone

Hey! Teacher! Leave them kids alone

 

All in all, it's just another brick in the wall

All in all, you're just another brick in the wall

 

We don't need no education

We don't need no thought control

No dark sarcasm in the classroom

Teacher, leave them kids alone

Hey! Teacher! Leave those kids alone

 

All in all, you're just another brick in the wall

All in all, you're just another brick in the wall

 

Wrong! Do it again! Wrong, do it again!

If you don't eat your meat, you can't have any pudding! How can you have any pudding if you don't eat your meat?

You! Yes, you behind the bikeshed! Stand still, laddy!

 

Part III

 

I don't need no arms around me

I don't need no drugs to calm me

I have seen the writing on the wall

Don't think I need anything at all

No, don't think I need anything at all

 

All in all it was all just bricks in the wall

All in all you were just bricks in the wall

From Autumn To Ashes - Short Stories With Tragic Endings

 

Here you stand seething with guilt.

Silence only justifies this act of cowardice.

The look stapled on your face cries out for forgiveness,

the one thing that I cannot give you.

 

(Did you ever see that one person

and the way they do these things

and it hurts so much it's like choking.. choking?)

 

I can give you freedom from your guilt,

with a flick of my wrist onto yours.

I can give you peace of mind with a forced smile.

 

I can give you death with the look upon my face.

 

This is your freedom in a life of fallacy,

with no last kiss & no regrets;

you don't deserve good bye.

This is your freedom in a life of fallacy,

with no last kiss & no good bye.

 

Here you stand seething with guilt.

Silence only justifies this act of cowardice.

With a short story, the one you add to daily, you are the tragic loss.

No story book ending for this fairy tale of you.

Just the one composed with blood taken from your pen that you hold in your lifeless hand.

Cry for you. Shed tears. Mourn. Wish the end.

 

(Did you ever look, did you ever see that one person,

and the subtle way that they do these things and it hurts so much?

So much it's like choking down the embers of a great blaze.

It's that moment when your eyes seem to spread aspersions

and to scream confessions at the insipid sky parting clouds.

You let this one person come down on the most perfect moment.

And it breaks my heart to know the only reason you are here now is a reminder of what I'll never have..

I'll never have.. I'll never...

Standing so close knowing that it kills me to breathe you in..

standing so close knowing that it kills me to breathe you in.

But this table for one has become bearable.

I now take comfort in this, and for this, I cherish you.

Did you ever look, did you ever see that one person

and the subtle way that they do these things and it hurts so much?

So much it's like choking down the embers of a great place.

It's that moment when your eyes seem to spread aspersions

and to scream confessions at the insipidsky parting clouds.

And you let this one person come down.. come down. I cherish you.. I cherish you.

Just say that you would do the same for me..

just say you would do the same..

just say you would do the same for me.

For as much as I love Autumn,

I'm giving myself to Ashes.)

Foo Fighters - Everlong

 

hello

I've waited here for you

everlong

tonight I throw myself into

and out of the red

out of her head she sang

 

come down

and waste away with me

down with me

slow how

you wanted it to be

I'm over my head

out of her head she sang

 

and I wonder

when I sing along with you

if everything could ever feel this real forever

if anything could ever be this good again

the only thing I'll ever ask of you

you've got to promise not to stop whn I say when

 

breathe out so I can breathe you in

hold you in

and now I know you've always been

out of your head

out of my head I sang

I by Taproot

(this is MY theme song...period.)

 

I’m seeing tunnel vision in a world that's dark and cold,

I cannot believe how much I've changed since the days of old,

I know, it's temporary but I need to focus straight,

I cannot believe I lost control of my fate,

 

I need forgiveness from the people I truly care about,

I need support behind my back to help me spit it out

I am gonna win, I can't afford to blow this one,

I hate myself sometimes,

I love myself,

I need this way of life because it holds me.

I hate myself sometimes,

I love myself,

Contradiction's the way of life

Happiness is wealthyness is healthy

 

Now that I've made it through those lies and deceit,

I think what's done is done and

I can't complain anymore

I am sure now that I've found myself again it feels great

 

I cannot believe I lost control of my fate,

I need forgiveness from the people I truly care about,

I need support behind my back to help me spit it out

I am gonna win, I can't afford to blow this one,

I hate myself sometimes,

I love myself,

I need this way of life because it holds me.

I hate myself sometimes,

I love

myself,

Contradiction's the way of life

Happiness is wealthyness is healthiness

"Carry On", by Common Rider.

 

Big city miles stretching out into the terminal horizon

Don't you know we had to get away?

It was two kids with a beat up Nova,

and a dream and a two a.m. song

It was two kids with a beat up Nova singing come carry on

 

Come carry on 'till the night's all gone

Come carry on come right where we belong

 

The impossible girl lit a cigarette

and said "I don't give a damn if we never come home"

and I turned to her in the old starlight

and a tender amazement swallowed up the night

We could walk along be forever strong

drive into the night, and the right, and the wrong

It was two kids with a beat up Nova, and a dream, and a two A.M. song

 

Come carry on 'till the night's all gone

Come carry on come right where we belong

 

There ain't no dream like the one that's real

Ashby to Eighty

Eighty to the Bridge

Bridge down to One

Route One carry on

We ate the night up and we shot the big coast

'cause the shoreline makes a heart open like a rose

She found a song on the radio

and it wiped all the blood off my halo

It was two kids, whose heart were their own

Toughest the world has ever known

 

Come carry on 'till the night's all gone

Come carry on come right where we belong

A few Lyrics from an Band that never got the respect they deserve

 

Life of Agony-The Stain Remains

 

Was it me? Honestly

Torn away from my purity

Never look back and don't look ahead

At those lies that might be empty promises

It's the blood in your tears

The pain in your veins

The lies, the cries, only the

Only the stain remains

 

Everyday - I live it

Everyday - I face it

Everyday - I hate it

All I need is me and that's it

 

I whish I could back the hands of time

And maybe I would believe in a dream I cannot even see

Close your ears if you don't want to hear

Let me make myself perfectly clear

I don't believe your dream even exists

Save your prayers and solve your problems with your fist

 

Sometime I don't see any point in life

Can't seem to break away

From the pain that's here to stay

 

All I need, set me free

All I need, set me free

All I need, set me free

All I need... is me!

 

-----------------------------

 

Through and Through

 

You've got that look in your eye again

It's working overtime

Worried about where I'm gonna spend my life

But it's much too late, it's much too late

Oh it's much to late to start picking fights

 

You said: where ya been, where ya from

Where ya going to, where you going to, where are you going?

'cause I'll be right here yeah

 

Can't it wait, can't it wait, can't it wait

Just a minute now, just a minute now, come on

 

I need some air to breathe

I need some space, just leave

'cause I'm colder than ever (colder than ever)

I said I'm colder than ever

I'm empty, empty through and through

 

Someday they'll see, someday I'll be

Unwanting of somewhere to hide

But for now, I'll take shelter

Deep in the back of my mind

Can it wait, can't you wait?

'cause I ain't ready to lay it on the line

I still shake, I still shake

From the chill in my spine

 

I've got this chill yeah

In the back of my spine

Baby all the time now

Chilling my bones, chilling all alone now

 

Find a way, find a way, I've found a way

to cope with the everyday now

raise your hands if you understand

 

Smiling's just a phase yeah

And nothing can phase me

 

------------------------------------------

 

My Eyes

 

 

 

A little older, a little wiser

With every breath I learn just a little more

And with all I've seen , I've finally made up my mind

Enough of this world

Enough blood in these eyes

So, so, so sick of this life

 

It's about time that I realized

Release this hate from inside

Enough blood in my eyes

 

Call it what you will

Call it suicide

Disregard how you feel

I'm just freeing my mind

Clench my teeth as I sleep

So, so ,so sick of this life

Cannot take, cannot fake

Can't shake this blood from my eyes

So, so, so don't even try

 

Just give me one good reason to live

I'll give you three to die

Let's leave this world behind

 

--------------------------------

 

Drained

They'll make you or break you

They'll swallow you whole

They'll find you and bind you

To every word that they own

But you know yhat you need them

So you continue to feed them

So I hope that you're in this

For all the right reasons

They can't make you feel something you don't believe in

But they can threaten your future

And everything in it

When you fail to remember just where you've been

When you can't tell up from down

How do you write from within?

And all I know is that they're

They're trying to squeeze me dry

They told me

They own me

And all I know is that they're

They're trying to squeeze me dry

I look in the mirror and what do I see?

A man staring back at me who used to be me

He looks so familiar

He once had big dreams

But I can't see that he's been drained of his soul and inte-

grity

 

----------------------------

 

Don't You

 

Won't you come see about me?

I'll be alone, dancing you know it baby

Tell me your troubles and doubts

Giving me everything inside and out

 

Love's strange so real in the drak

Think of the tenfer things that we were working on

Slow change may pull us apart

When the light gets into your heart, baby

 

Don't You Forget About Me

Don't Don't Don't Don't

Don't You Forget About Me

 

Don't you try to pretend

It's my feeling we'll win in the end

I won't harm you or touch your defenses

Vanity and security

 

Don't you ferget aboyt me

I'll be alone dancing, you know it baby

Gong you take you apart

I'll put us back together at heart, baby

 

Don't You Forget About Me

Don't Don't Don't Don't

Don't You Forget About Me

Don't Don't Don't Don't

Don't You Forget About Me

Don't Don't Don't Don't

Don't You Forget About Me

 

Will you stand above me?

Look my way, never love me

Rain keeps falling, rain keeps falling

Down, down, down

 

Hey, hey, hey, hey Ohhh...

 

Don't You Forget About Me

Don't Don't Don't Don't

Don't You Forget About Me

 

But you walk on by

Will you call my name?

As you walk on by

Will you call my name?

As you walk on by

 

Will you walk away?

Will you walk away?

Come on, baby - call my name

Will you call my name?

 

I say...

50 Cent - "U Not Like Me"

 

 

NYPD, LAPD, NYPD (When it's on, that's who you get, huh?)

NYPD, LAPD, NYPD (That's your motherfuckin' click, huh?)

NYPD, LAPD, NYPD (You a motherfuckin' snitch, huh?)

NYPD, LAPD, NYPD

 

Niggaz wanna shine like me (me), rhyme like me (me)

Then walk around with a 9 like me (me)

They don't wanna do it, 3 to 9 like me

And they ain't strong enough to take 9 like me

Aiyoo, you think about shittin' on 50... save it

My songs belong in the Bible with King David

I teach niggaz sign language, that ain't def son

*click* *click* you heard that? That mean RUN

Ask around, I ain't the one you wanna stun on, pa

Pull through, I'll throw a fuckin cocktail at ya' car

From the last shootout, I got a demple on my face

It's nothin', I could go after Mase's fanbase

Shell hit my jaw, I ain't wait for doctor to get it out

Hit my wisdom tooth *huck-too* spit it out

I don't smile a lot, cause ain't nothin' pretty

Got a purple heart for war, and I ain't never left the City

Hos be like "Fitty, you so witty"

On the dick like they heard I ghostwrite for P.Diddy

You got fat while we starve, it's my turn

I done felt how the shells burn, I still won't learn

Won't learn

 

[Chorus 2X]

If you get shot and run to the cop - You not like me

You ain't got no work on the block - You not like me

It's hot, you ain't got no drop - You not like me

Like me duke, you not like me

 

Mama said..

Everything that happened to us, was part of God's plan

So at night when I talk him, I got my gun in my hand

Don't think I'm crazy, cause I don't fear man

Cause I feel when I kill a man, God won't understand

I got a head full of evil thoughts, am I Satan

I been coulda killed these niggaz, I'm still waitin

In the telly with to whores, a Benz with to doors

32 carrots in the traws, no flaws

You see me in the hood, I got atleast two guns

I carry the glock, Tony carry my M-1s

Hold me down nigga, OGs tryin' to rock me

D's waitin for my response to lock me

This is my hustle, nigga don't knock me

You need some shit with banana clips to try and stop me

I'M THE ONE

 

[Chorus 2x]

 

See, I done been to the Pearly Gates, they sent me back

The good die young, I ain't eligable for that

I shot niggaz, I been shot, sold crack in the street

My attitude is gangsta, so I stand some beef

You wanna get acquainted with me, you wanna know me

From 3 point range, with a glock, I shoot better then Kobe

See a nigga standin' next to me, he probably my Co-D

See a bitch gettin in my whip, she probably gon' blow me

See the flow is like a 38, it's special yoooooo

A country boy tell ya, I'm fittin' to blowwwww

I'm more like a pimp, then a trick, you knowwww

See, I'm in this for the paper, I don't love the hooos

Niggaz broke in the hood, worried about mines

Grown ass men, wearin starter piece shines

You know them little pieces, with the little stones

Got little clientele fiends call your cell phones

When the gossip starts, I'm always the topic

You too old for that shit dog, why don't you stop it

Shorty, I been watchin you watchin me

Now tell me what you like more, my watch or me

Haha

 

[Chorus 2x]

For Any One that Loves Music...I would think this expresses how we all feel about it

 

"Bleed" -Cold

 

 

I'm feeling crossed

I take it inside

Burn up the pain

My thoughts are strange

Just like the things

I used to love

Just like the tree that fell

I heard it

If art is still inside

I feel it

 

I wanna bleed

Show the world all that I have inside

I wanna scream

Let the blood flow that keeps me alive

 

Take all these strings

They call my veins

Wrap them around

Every fucking thing

 

Presence of people

Not for me

Well I must remain in tune

Forever

My love is music

I will marry melody

 

I wanna bleed

Show the world all that I have inside

I wanna scream

Let the blood flow that keeps me alive

 

Won't you let me take you

For a ride

You can stop the world

Try to change my mind

Won't you let me show you

How it feels

You can stop the world

But you won't change me

 

I need music

I need music

I need music to set me free

To let me bleed

:wub: Daniel Beddingfield: If You're Not The One

 

If your not the one,

then why does my soul feel glad... today

If your not the one,

then why does my hand fit yours... this way

 

If you are not mine,

then why does your heart return... my call

If you are not mine,

then would I have the strength to stand... at all

 

You never know what the future brings,

but I know you're here with me now

We'll make it trough,

and I hope you are the one I share my life with

 

I don't wanna run away, but I can't take it

I don't understand, if I'm not made for you

Then why does my heart tell me that I am

Is there any way that I could stay, in your life

 

If I don't need you then why am I crying on... my bed

If I don't need you then why does your name resound... in my head

If your not for me then why does this distance maim... my life

If you're not for me then why do I dream of you... as my wife

 

I don't know why your so far away,

but I know that this much is true,

we'll make it trough,

And I hope you are the one i share my life with

And I wish that you could be the one I die with

And I pray that you're the one I bind my home with

I hope I love you all my life...

 

I don't wanna run away, but I can't take it

I don't understand, if I'm not made for you

Then why does my heart tell me that I am

Is there any way that I could stay, in your life

 

Cuz I miss you, but it's so, so, strong that it takes my breath away

And I breath you into my heart and pray for the strength to stand today

Cuz I love you whether its wrong or right

and tough I can't be with you tonight

You know my heart is by your side

 

I don't wanna run away, but I can't take it

I don't understand, if I'm not made for you

Then why does my heart tell me that I am

Is there any way that I could stay, in your life

31/32

 

You were voted most likely to have your name go up in lights

 

Only took a few years to see that through

 

Now you're most likely to end up dead alone in a hotel room

 

31/32

 

Roust the boy, smack the wife

 

Might have one... case tonight

 

Alcoholic breath, thick drool

 

Repetitive belligerent cruel

 

Can't get away, no hiding place

 

The boy hesitates, when grown he'll make the same mistakes

 

Grocery checkout line

 

Residing in the welfare file

 

Child support, don't receive

 

Mama crying, no relief

 

They got no home, three kids and on her own

 

Revenge his name, pay back all the pain

 

Gut shot defender, hole inside

 

Shell-shocked commander, are you alright?

 

Gut shot defender, blood stain bright, hold tight

 

Shell-shocked commander

 

Age adult, mother gone

 

Friends with dad don't really talk

 

Wanted to, now you're a star

 

Make a living milking scars

 

The boy hesitates, lost his way

 

The boy hesitates, first and last mistake

 

Gut shot defender, fill the hole

 

There is no commander any more

 

Gut shot defender will survive, yes I

 

You are no pretender... no pretender

 

You were voted most likely to have your name go up in lights

 

Only took a few years to see that through

 

Now you're most likely to end up dead alone in a hotel room

 

31/32

Kenny Wayne Sheperd - Last Goodbye

 

Long before your rusted chains

Busted walls and barbed wire cage

Tried to hold me down

 

And time was just a fist of change

Tossed in the water just in case

You ever came around

 

I could lose myself

I could curse like hell

But I’ve lose the will

To even try

If you ever doubt

Listen to the sound

No lies no no no

This is my last goodbye

 

Not pardon me if I appear

To see beyond the now and here

To try to save myself

I’m not the kind to dim the pain

But I cant take more of the same

Living on your shelf

 

I could lose myself

I could curse like hell

But I’ve lose the will

To even try

If you ever doubt

Listen to the sound

No lies no no no

This is my last goodbye

 

Door closes, another one opens

I feel the cold wind blowing,

Over me

Hey,

Long gone, but not forgotten

I might be lost, I might be finally

Free

I’m finally free

 

Long before your rusted chains

Busted walls and barbed wire cage

Tried to hold me down

 

And time was just a fist of change

Tossed in the water just in case

You ever came around

 

I could lose myself

I could curse like hell

But I’ve lose the will

To even try

If you ever doubt

Listen to the sound

No lies no no no

This is my last goodbye

This is my last goodbye

Yes it is

Yes it is

A few Lyrics from an Band that never got the respect they deserve

 

Life of Agony-The Stain Remains

 

Was it me? Honestly

Torn away from my purity

Never look back and don't look ahead

At those lies that might be empty promises

It's the blood in your tears

The pain in your veins

The lies, the cries, only the

Only the stain remains

 

Everyday - I live it

Everyday - I face it

Everyday - I hate it

All I need is me and that's it

 

I whish I could back the hands of time

And maybe I would believe in a dream I cannot even see

Close your ears if you don't want to hear

Let me make myself perfectly clear

I don't believe your dream even exists

Save your prayers and solve your problems with your fist

 

Sometime I don't see any point in life

Can't seem to break away

From the pain that's here to stay

 

All I need, set me free

All I need, set me free

All I need, set me free

All I need... is me!

 

-----------------------------

 

Through and Through

 

You've got that look in your eye again

It's working overtime

Worried about where I'm gonna spend my life

But it's much too late, it's much too late

Oh it's much to late to start picking fights

 

You said: where ya been, where ya from

Where ya going to, where you going to, where are you going?

'cause I'll be right here yeah

 

Can't it wait, can't it wait, can't it wait

Just a minute now, just a minute now, come on

 

I need some air to breathe

I need some space, just leave

'cause I'm colder than ever (colder than ever)

I said I'm colder than ever

I'm empty, empty through and through

 

Someday they'll see, someday I'll be

Unwanting of somewhere to hide

But for now, I'll take shelter

Deep in the back of my mind

Can it wait, can't you wait?

'cause I ain't ready to lay it on the line

I still shake, I still shake

From the chill in my spine

 

I've got this chill yeah

In the back of my spine

Baby all the time now

Chilling my bones, chilling all alone now

 

Find a way, find a way, I've found a way

to cope with the everyday now

raise your hands if you understand

 

Smiling's just a phase yeah

And nothing can phase me

 

------------------------------------------

 

My Eyes

 

 

 

A little older, a little wiser

With every breath I learn just a little more

And with all I've seen , I've finally made up my mind

Enough of this world

Enough blood in these eyes

So, so, so sick of this life

 

It's about time that I realized

Release this hate from inside

Enough blood in my eyes

 

Call it what you will

Call it suicide

Disregard how you feel

I'm just freeing my mind

Clench my teeth as I sleep

So, so ,so sick of this life

Cannot take, cannot fake

Can't shake this blood from my eyes

So, so, so don't even try

 

Just give me one good reason to live

I'll give you three to die

Let's leave this world behind

 

--------------------------------

I cannot possibly say enough good things about that album. Just brutal honesty with the perfect delivery from first song to last. Every rock band from 98 onward needs to listen to River Runs Red, and realize that it cannot be topped.

Three songs. All by Sunna. This is an example of the story telling thing. They're all linked, so it sounds like one continuous song.

 

Sunna - "Power Struggle"-"I Miss"-"Insanity Pulse".

 

"I will be here when you are gone, so I have the right to a power gorge, and I will be good at making bad, and I'll light the way for the fucking mad.

 

I will defeat what I'm heading for, and I will be here for evermore, and I am the way of your empty shell, I want more than I am...

 

Cause I was made to fly...

Yeah, I was made to fly....

And you were made to die...

But I was made to fly....

 

I will survive cause I want more, and I will create a bigger war, then I will rule over and give you hell, and then you will do as I command.

 

Cause I will be here when you are gone, yeah I'll still be here when you are gone, I'll fill you with fear of a holy sun, I want all that I am...

 

Cause I was made to fly...

Yeah, I was made to fly....

And you were made to die...

But I was made to fly....

 

I will defeat you-I will defeat you-I will defeat you-I will defeat you-I defeat you-I will defeat you-I will defeat you-I will defeat you-I will defeat you-I will defeat you.

 

Manipulate, interrogate, compete all you like,

And dominate with forceful hate, cause You know(I will defeat you)...

 

You were made to fight!

Yeah, you were made to fight!

I was made to fly...

But you were meant to die!

 

Cause I was made to fly...

Yeah, I was made to fly....

And you were made to die...

But I was made to fly....

 

I will defeat you!

*song end, "I Miss" begins*

 

I miss.......hate......

And I miss......war....

I miss......killing people.....and I miss the point....

 

Hold me down, 'cause I.....can't stop myself...

Hold me down, and I'll.....repress myself...

 

I miss.....religion....

And I miss.....dictators....

I miss.....their reasons, and I miss.....the point.

 

Hold me down, 'cause I....can't stop myself,

Hold me down, and I'll....repress myself,

Hold me down, but I....won't be baiden,

Hold me down from this....wealth of treason....

 

There's no way you'll ever convince me...

There's no way you'll ever convince me...

There's no way you'll ever...

 

Hold me down, 'cause I...can't stop myself,

Hold me down, and I'll...repress myself,

Hold me down, but I....won't be baiden,

Hold me down from this....wealth of treason,

Hold me down, 'cause I....can't stop myself,

Hold me down, and I'll.....repress myself,

Hold me down, but I....won't be baiden,

Hold me down from this....wealth of treason....

 

*song end, "Insanity Pulse" begins*

 

I DONT KNOW IF I CAN STAND!!

(If you think you've made it with your God...)

FAR TOO MUCH I UNDERSTAND!!

(If you think you're brainy then you're not...)

I DON'T KNOW IF I'VE BEEN DEAD!!

(Everything you've made it with your God...)

CAN YOU SEE WHAT'S NOT BEEN READ?!

(If you think you've made it with your God....)

 

I wanna know if-I wanna know if-I wanna know if-I wanna know if

 

I DONT KNOW IF I CAN STAND!!

(If you think you've made it with your God...)

FAR TOO MUCH I UNDERSTAND!!

(If you think you're brainy then you're not...)

I DON'T KNOW IF I'VE BEEN DEAD!!

(Everything you've made it with your God...)

CAN YOU SEE WHAT'S NOT BEEN READ?!

(If you think you've made it with your God....)

 

I wanna know if-I wanna know if-I wanna know if-I wanna know if

 

You and me and me and you are lost in all the things we do and moving on from where we are evolves from where and who...

 

I wanna know if-I wanna know if-I wanna know if-I wanna know if

 

You and me and me and you are lost in all the things we do and moving on from where we are evolves from where and whooooooo..."

Masta Ace feat. Punchline and Wordsworth

 

Block Episode

 

[Masta Ace]

Woke up this morning hearing shots below my project window

The TV's on from playing all night on Nintendo

jumped out of bed tryin to see what's up with all the noise and

I see somebody else has caught a case of lead poison

This type of shit around my way is a regular occurance

because the same shit just happened to my nigga Terrence

a week later now somebody else is laying dying

surrounded by a crowd of people and his momma crying

the way he's laying there it looks to me that he's a goner

I seen the cats who just did it run around the corner

I start to wonder who it is and why they had to wet him

I bet I knew him or at least I bet I probably met him

I can't pretend I'm shocked like electrocution

cuz any night there could be an execution

my momma told me that that thug shit will get you buried

the next day there's your name in the obituary

I asked her why we gotta live in this environment

She said Your grandfather drank up his retirement

plus when I fucked around and had you I was just a baby

Just maybe if I wasn't being miss lady

things could've been a little bit better

threw on my jeans and my double knit sweater

I hit the block tryin to find out who got done in

Who had the gun and who that was I seen running

 

[Chorus]

Another body on the ground cold and

another day another lost soul and

same shit in every zip code

no matter where you go

its just another block episode

another story on the street told and

another turn down the wrong road and

sit back and watch it unfold

yo I'll let you know

just another block episode

 

[Punchline]

Yo, I roam the streets with my peeps and the gun by my crotch

I got beef with this cat that resides on my block

he getting popped i swear when I see him it's on

He'll just be a tattoo on his best friends arm

my friends screaming "Punch be calm" y'all can save it

He borrowed 5 G's two months ago, still ain't pay it

This girl hit me on the cell about his location

I grabbed my gun jumped in the hoopty then I started racing

turned off the lights a block away so he don't peep the caper

I see him and a bunch of cats by the bodega

Don't wanna kill him I just wanna teach this cat a lesson

Stepped on the gas grab the gun cocked back the weapon

shot up the whole corner but hit him in the kneecap

that's cool cuz dead niggaz can't pay your cash back

I'm nutting to laugh at I keep bad temper

I hit him a bystander and one of his crewmembers

(gunshot)

 

[Wordsworth]

yo yo yo yo, last thing I heard was a blast car circling past

I wasn't nervous thought they might be searching for gas

soon as Rob came out dispersing the trash

car sped and lead went through his windows curtains and glass

dove in the dirt and the grass

I look bullet struck my right arm

glass in my left palm I lost my neck charm

I knew it was punch cuz Rob owed him money

but never had it always got new kicks and gear to match it

I'm in the ambulance I thought that beef was squashed

that's why when he seen Punch he crossed the street and dodged

See Rob's records with the DA and ???

my records 4.0 GPA going to Harvard

Athletes 100 miles and running he's a convict

other hand my high school football team I lead in yardage

boys regardless blood pressure dropped artery vessel clogged

cardiac arrest next my chest was shocked IV

oxygen mask bleeding heavily

we need to get to the hospital fast I'm doing 70

why I gotta be a casuality of war did good most my life

my career was growing gradually and more

hearing "hold on, you'll be alright, you're gonna make it"

sirens up ahead construction on the pavement

slowed down from this moment I didn't have a chance

see he didn't have his flash can't believe I died in the traffic jam

Exactly. LOA was so good, I can't believe they werent HUGE during that time period.

 

I also should say that "UGLY" is a equally good Album and is somewhat more "UP" then RRR...

 

A lot of people I speak to about this band say that they were miserable after hearing the album but I thought it HAD to be an Misery stricken album showing the pain.

 

However, Soul Searching Sun is a disgrace and I would never touch that album again...

In a time of war, I've been listening to these songs constantly.

Two completely different songs speaking volumes about the same war.

 

This song was written in the 70's, by a bloke called John Schuman and performed by him in a band called "Redgum". It became a national hit espcecially among Veterans almost imediately. It is still performed today whenever Vietnam Vets get together for a concert. Royalties from sales were donated to the Vietnam Veterans Association of Australia.

Just a few things that may help you understand the lyrics better.

Puckapunyal was a recruit training center and Cunungra is a Jungle Warfare training center. Shoalwater was a place that the Army used for Military excercises. The SLR was the personal weapon mostly used in Vietnam. Vung Tau & Nui Dat were Aussie bases in Vietnam. V.B. is Victorian Bitter a very popular Aussie beer. Anzac is the acronym for the Australian & New Zealand Army Corps

 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

I WAS ONLY NINETEEN

Mum and Dad and Denny saw the passing out parade at Puckapunyal

(1t was long march from cadets).

The sixth battalion was the next to tour and It was me who drew the card.

We did Canungra and Shoalwater before we left.

 

 

Chorus I:

And Townsville lined the footpath as we marched down to the quay.

This clipping from the paper shows us young and strong and clean.

And there's me in my slouch hat with my SLR and greens.

God help me, I was only nineteen.

 

 

From Vung Tau riding Chinooks to the dust at Nui Dat,

I'd been in and out of choppers now for months.

But we made our tents a home. V.B. and pinups on the lockers,

And an Asian orange sunset through the scrub.

 

 

Chorus 2:

And can you tell me, doctor, why I still can't get to sleep?

And night time's just a jungle dark and a barking M.16?

And what's this rash that comes and goes, can you tell me what it means?

God help me, I was only nineteen.

 

 

A four week operation, when each step can mean your last one

On two legs: it was a war within yourself.

But you wouldn't let your mates down 'til they had you dusted off,

So you closed your eyes and thought about something else.

 

 

Chorus 3:

Then someone yelled out "Contact"', and the bloke behind me swore.

We hooked in there for hours, then a God almighty roar.

Frankie kicked a mine the day that mankind kicked the moon.

God help me, he was going home in June.

 

 

1 can still see Frankie, drinking tinnies in the Grand Hotel

On a thirty-six hour rec. leave in Vung Tau.

And I can still hear Frankie, lying screaming in the jungle.

'Till the morphine came and killed the bloody row

 

 

Chorus 4:

And the Anzac legends didn't mention mud and blood and tears.

And stories that my father told me never seemed quite real

I caught some pieces In my back that I didn't even feel.

God help me, I was only nineteen.

 

 

Chorus 5:

And can you tell me, doctor, why I still can't get to sleep?

And why the Channel Seven chopper chills me to my feet?

And what's this rash that comes and goes, can you tell me what it means?

God help me, I was only nineteen.

 

 

Alice In Chains - Rooster lyrics

Ain't Found A Way To

Kill Me Yet

Eyes Burn With Stinging

Sweat

Seems Every Path Leads Me To

Nowhere

Wife And Kids And Household Pet

Army Green Was No Safe Bet

The Bullets Scream To Me From Somewhere

 

Here They Come To Snuff The Rooster

Yeah Here Come The Rooster

You Know He Ain't Gonna Die

 

Walkin' Tall Machine Gun Man

They Spit On Me In My Homeland

Gloria Sent Me Pictures

Of My Boy

Got My Pills 'Gainst

Mosquito Death

My Buddy's Breathin'

His Dyin' Breath

Oh God Please Won't You Help

Me Make It Through
