Cemeteries of London
At night they would go walking
'till the breaking of the day
The morning is for sleeping
Through the dark streets
They go searching to see God
In their own way
Save the night time
For your weeping
Your weeping

Singing la la la la la la ehh
And the night over London hey

So we rode down to the river
Where the
(something something)
For the curses to be broken
We go underneath the arches
Where the witches are
(something something)
There are ghost towns
In the ocean
The ocean

Singing la la la la la la ehh
And the night over London hey

Gunners in the houses
And gunners in my head
And all the cemeteries
In London
I see god come in my garden
But I don't know what he said
For my heart it wasn't open
Not open

Singing
La la la la la la ehh
And the night
Over London hey

Singing
La la la la la la eh
There's no light
Over London today

Lost
Just because I'm losing
Doesn't mean I'm lost
Doesn't mean I'll stop
Doesn't mean I will cross

Just because I'm hurting
Doesn't mean I'm hurt
Doesn't mean I didn't get what I deserve
No better and no worse

I just got lost
Every river that I've tried to cross
And every door I ever tried was locked
Ooh-Oh, And I'm just waiting till the shine wears off...

You might be a big fish
In a little pond
Doesn't mean you've won
'Cause along may come
A bigger one
And you'll be lost

Every river that you tried to cross
Every gun you ever held went off
Ooh-Oh, And I'm just waiting till the firing starts
Ooh-Oh, And I'm just waiting till the shine wears off…

Those who are dead are not dead
They're just living my head
And since I fell for that spell
I am living there as well
Oh...

Time is so short and I'm sure
There must be something more

Those who are dead are not dead
They're just living my head oh…
And since I fell for that spell
I am living there as well oh…

Time is so short and I'm sure
There must be something more

You thought you might be a ghost
You thought you might be a ghost
You didn't get to heaven but you made it close
You didn't get to heaven but you made it close

You thought you might be a ghost
You thought you might be a ghost
You didn't get to heaven but you made it close
You didn't get to heaven but you oh oh
Oh oh…

Those who are dead are not dead
They're just living my head
Oh...

Lovers In Japan
Lovers, keep on the road you're on
Runners, until the race is run
Soldiers, you've got to soldier on
Sometimes even right is wrong

They are turning my head out
To see what I'm all about
Keeping my head down
To see what it feels like now
But I have no doubt
One day, we are gonna get out

Tonight maybe we're gonna run
Dreaming of the Osaka sun
Ohh ohh...
Dreaming of when the morning comes

They are turning my head out
To see what I'm all about
Keeping my head down
To see what it feels like now
But I have no doubt
One day the sun will come out

Reign of Love
Reign of love
I can't let go
To the sea I offer
This heavy load

Locusts will lift me up
I'm just a prisoner
In a Reign of love

Locusts will
Let us stop
I wish I'd spoken
To the Reign of love

Reign of love
By the church we're waiting
Reign of love
My knees go praying

How I wish I'd spoken up
Or we'd been carried
To the Reign of love

Yes
When it started we had hopes
Now my back's on the line
My back's on the ropes

When it started we were alright
But night makes a fool of us in daylight

Yeah we were dying of frustration
Saying "Lord lead me not into temptation"

But it's not easy when she turns you on
Since they gone

If you'll only, if you'll only say yes
Whether you will's anybody's guess

God, only God knows I'm trying my best
But I'm so tired of this loneliness

So, up they picked me by the big toe
I was held from the rooftop then they let go

There's only screaming
Let the windows down
As I come to the ground

If you'll only, if you'll only say yes
Whether you will's anybody's guess

God, only God knows she won't let me rest
But I'm just so tired of this loneliness
I've become so tired of this loneliness

Chinese Sleep Chant
Fall asleep
Fall asleep
Sleep satisfied
Sleep satisfied

Fall asleep
Fall asleep
Sleep satisfied
Sleep satisfied

Sleep
Sleep satisfied
Sleep satisfied

Fall asleep
Fall asleep
Sleep crucify (??)
Sleep crucify (??)

Fall asleep
Fall asleep
Sleep satisfied
Sleep satisfied

Sleep

Sleep
Sleep
Sleep satisfied
Sleep satisfied

Viva La Vida
I used to rule the world
Seas would rise when I gave the word
Now in the morning I sleep alone
Sweep the streets I used to own

I used to roll the dice
Feel the fear in my enemies eyes
Listen as the crowd would sing:
"Now the old king is dead! Long live the king!"

One minute I held the key
Next the walls were closed on me
And I discovered that my castles stand
Upon pillars of salt, and pillars of sand

I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
Be my mirror my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field
For some reason I can't explain
Once you know there was never, never an honest word
That was when I ruled the world
(Ohhh)

It was the wicked and wild wind
Blew down the doors to let me in.
Shattered windows and the sound of drums
People could not believe what I'd become
Revolutionaries Wait
For my head on a silver plate
Just a puppet on a lonely string
Oh who would ever want to be king?

I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
Be my mirror my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field
For some reason I can not explain
I know Saint Peter won't call my name
Never an honest word
And that was when I ruled the world
(Ohhhhh Ohhh Ohhh)

Hear Jerusalem bells are ringings
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
Be my mirror my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field
For some reason I can not explain
I know Saint Peter will call my name
Never an honest word
But that was when I ruled the world

Violet Hill
Was a long and dark December
From the rooftops I remember
There was snow
White snow

Clearly I remember
From the windows they were watching
While we froze down below

When the future's architectured
By a carnival of idiots on show
You'd better lie low

If you love me
Won't you let me know?

Was a long and dark December
When the banks became cathedrals
And the fog
Became God

Priests clutched onto bibles
And went out to fit their rifles
And the cross was held aloft

Bury me in honor
When I'm dead and hit the ground
A love back home unfolds

If you love me
Won't you let me know?

I don't want to be a soldier
With the captain of some sinking ship
With snow, far below

So if you love me
Why'd you let me go?

I took my love down to violet hill
There we sat in snow
All that time she was silent still

So if you love me
Won't you let me know?

If you love me,
Won't you let me know?

Strawberry Swing
They were sitting
They were sitting
In the strawberry swing
Every moment was so precious

They were sitting
They were talking
In the strawberry swing
Everybody was for fighting
Wouldn't wanna waste a thing

Cold, cold water
Bring me round
Now my feet
Won't touch the ground
Cold, cold water
What ya say?
It's such
It's such a perfect day
It's such a perfect day

I remember
We were walking up
To strawberry swing
I can't wait 'til the morning
Wouldn't wanna change a thing

People leaving all the time
Inside
A perfectly straight line
Don't you wanna curve away
It's such
It's such a perfect day
It's such a perfect day

Now the sky could be blue
I don't mind
Without you
It's a waste of time

Could be blue
I don't mind
Without you
It's a waste of time

Could be blue
Could be grey
Without you
I'm just miles away

Could be blue
I don't mind
Without you
It's a waste of time

Death And All His Friends
All winter
We got carried
Oh
Way over on the rooftops
Let's get married
All summer we just hurried
So come over
Just be patient
And don't worry
So come over
Just be patient
And don't worry

So come over
Just be patient
And don't worry
And don't worry

No I don't wanna battle
From beginning to end
I don't wanna cycle
Recycle revenge
I don't wanna follow
Death and all his friends

No I don't wanna battle
From beginning to end
I don't wanna cycle
Recycle revenge
I don't wanna follow
Death and all of his friends

The Escapist
And in the end
We lie awake
And we dream
We'll make an escape

And in the end
We lie awake
And we dream
We'll make an escape

Motley Crue - Saints of Los Angeles

noreply@blogger.com (Tambenk) — Tue, 01 Jul 2008 04:59:00 +0000

L.A.M.F
Slithering towards the dream,
All infected with the same disease,
Awaiting your flesh to be cloaked in silver.
As the fat rats grovel,
Ready to steal your innocence and exploit your soul
Some will hit their knees in a rancid act of desperation

While others search for a hopeless god to save them

For every FOUR, there will be 100,000 fallen

Drowning in a cesspool of awareness that they have failed

This city...full of plastic angels will seduce you...

WELCOME TO LOS ANGELES....

Face Down In The Dirt
It's a dirty job but someone's gotta do it

All I ever heard as a kid was "you're born to lose"
All I ever wanted was a shot at breakin' the rules

I wanna make a lotta money
But I don't wanna go to school
I don't wanna get a real job
I don't wanna be you

I'd rather be dead
I'd rather be dead
I'd rather be face down in the dirt
With a bullet it my head

I ran away and pawned my soul for a switchblade knife
Met a man from mars and a couple other freaks that night

I wanna take on the world
I wanna bang a million girls
I don't wanna wear a three piece suit
I don't wanna be you

I'd rather be dead
I'd rather be dead
I'd rather be face down in the dirt
With a bullet it my head

It's a dirty job but someone's gotta do it

What's It Gonna Take
We were drinkin' dinner on the sunset strip
The girls doin' powder got a little on her lip
It's just another night... Man I can't take this

Runnin' outta money and I can't pay the rent
The man at the label say we'll never write a hit
Shit... Man I can't take this

Everything's dr-dr-drivin' me crazy
I'm tickin' like a time bomb
And I'm about to blow

What's it gonna take to make it
What's it gonna take to make it
I'm a sorry mother fucker tired of livin in the gutter
Get Me Outta Here
What's it gonna take to make it
I'll do anything but fake it
What's it gonna take
What's it gonna take to make it here

So we wrote another song cut a demo on a dime
They didn't like the sound, we didn't fit the times
And the radio station said "it's way too loud"

We took it to the streets just to prove 'em all wrong
We knew we had it right, yeah, we knew it all along
It's just another fight...man I can't take this

Everything's dr-dr-drivin' me crazy
I'm tickin' like a time bomb
And I'm about to blow
What's it gonna take to make it
In the city of sin and the decay of angels
What's it gonna take
To make it out of here

Down At The Whisky
We're runaways in a band
All roads lead to Hollywood
We'll leave a scar, won't give a damn
Vandalize the neighborhood
Do you remember when ?
We slept all day in our clothes
That's ok in hollywood
Another shot, another show
All night long at the whisky a-go-go

We were on the run
Got loaded like a shotgun
Livin out a dream
Down at the whisky
We never made a dime
But, God we had a good time
We always made a scene
Down at the whisky

LA girls they paid the rent
While we got drunk on sunset strip
And all the cash they made we spent
On tattoos and cigarettes
We were born to fight
And we were getting high
Livin' out our dreams down at the whisky

Saints Of Los Angeles
Tonight...
There's gonna be a fight
So if you need a place to go
Got a two room slum
A mattress and a gun
And the cops don't never show

So come right in
Cuz everybody sins
Welcome to the scene of the crime
You want it? Believe it
We got it if you need it
The devil is a friend of mine

If you think it's crazy
You ain't seen a thing
Just wait until we're going down in flames

We are...we are the saints
We signed our life away
Doesn't matter what you think
We're gonna do it anyway
We are...we are the saints
One day you will confess
Pray to the saints of Los Angeles.

Redline...trippin' on a land mine
Sippin' at the trubador
Girl's passed out naked in the back lounge
Everybody's gonna score

She's jacked up She's down on her luck
You want it, you need it
The devil's gonna feed it

Don't you say it's crazy
You don't' know a thing
Just wait until we're going down in flames

Give it up give it up...

Mutherfucker Of The Year
I'm just a thorn your side
The disrespect in your eye
I can't control myself

I'm like the snake in your drain
I'm taking over your brain
Cause I can't help myself

Every time I turn my head
I can hear everything that said
I know they wish I'd go away

(Chorus)
Here I am again
Hey now hey now
I'm the Mutha Fucker Of The Year

Call me the jackal in heat
The blackest cat on the street
You better watch yourself

A hand grenade with no pin
A razor blade going in
I'm going straight to hell

Every time I turn my head
I can hear everything that said
I know they wish I'd go away

The Animal In Me
It feels like thunder
When you're slowly digging in
It kind of makes me wonder
All about the lovers that have been

Lying in my bed with their hands tied up
I knew it all along that it wasn't enough

Cause when I got a taste of you
I found something to sink my teeth into

It's a hurt that never heals
It's the deepest cut you feel
It's the thing in you that feeds
The animal in me

It's the darker side of lust
It's the other side of us
It's the thing in you that feeds
The animal in me

I want to be your last breath
Before you suffocate
A kiss you can't forget
Like a wedding on a rainy day

The chills keep shooting down the back of my neck
Like a freight train pounding in the pit of my chest

Welcome To The Machine
Step right up and listen
Welcome to the show
Sign on the x to sell your soul

It's so automatic
Hocking broken plastic
Royalties you'll never know

Rotting to the core
Give your ass like a whore
Once you take a hit
You need more more more more...

(Chorus)

Welcome to the machine
Once it sucks you in you'll never leave
Grind you up spit you out
After all you're just a piece of meat
Welcome to the machine

Count your days they're numbered
Where you gonna be
When it all goes down in flames

Sell out to the rats
Make em rich make em fat
Get a poison dwarf to watch your back

Just Another Psycho
They opened up the door
To my insanity
They should it slammed left it shut right then
And thrown away the key

They stiched up my head
From my lobotomy
They should have never let me out
I'm public enemy

I'm not okay
The voices in my head always say

(Chorus)

I should be committed
For being so twisted
Cause everyone knows
I'm just another psycho

I went to the doctor
It wasn't a shocker
When he said I should know
I'm just another psycho

Shoved into a hole
Got covered up with dirt
That's no way to treat someone
Who's feeling's don't get hurt

I don't need a reason
To hurt you just for fun
I'll terrorize your perfect life
Yeah...you better run

Chicks = Trouble
Rolls royce shoppin
Vicaden poppin
Burn my cash in Beverly Hills

Gold card lover
Accountants run for cover
Gucci went and jacked up my bills

I shouldn't say this
But truth be told
I really thought that pussy was.......... Gold

Chicks= trouble
Ya add it up and you get what ya get
Chicks = trouble
I always step right in the shit

Ya i have a jet
but my balls are deep in debt
And all she hears is ch ch ching

But she wants more
A gold diggin whore
Here come the lawyers again again again

Chicks= trouble
Ya add it up and you get what ya get
Chicks= trouble
They'll kick ya when you're down in the ditch
Chicks = trouble
I always step right in the shit

Hef never said i could catch this from a centerfold
But i got it bad and the doctor said i shoulda known
I shoulda known
I shoulda known

This Ain't A Love Song
I met her down at Marylin's grave
Lookin' like an S & M slave
Drinkin' like a fool
With a prison tattoo on her cheek
Well I knew that we would never last
Cuz we were runnin' from our criminal past
But none of that mattered
I was high and she was flattered by me

I had wine and 2-gram lines
To get inside her head
There was no need for roses
I just layed her down in bed

(Chorus)

This ain't a love song
This is a fuck song
Don't have to sing along
This ain't a love song
It's just a fuck song
Let's do it all night long

She didn't wanna look in my eyes
As we barreled down Mulholland Drive
Lookin for a place to suck a little face and get high
Suzy wouldn't call it love
She was good just givin' it up
All she really wanted was a little rock and roll tonight

She said turn it up so fucking loud
That I can't hear my mind
She bit down on the bedpost
And I watched Suzy grind

White Trash Circus
I opened up the bottle and I fell out of bed
I couldn't find the floor until it hit me in the head
I did a little powder off the bathroom sink
It's been about a month and something's starting to stink
Me and the band we are starting to fight
Cuz if we got along it just wouldn't feel right

(Chorus)
We're the white trash circus...Don't give a damn
We'll steal your girl whenever we can
We're the drunken gods of the living dead
We're the voice, we're the voice
We're the voice in your head
We're the trash, we're the trash
We're the trash in your bed

Been livin' on the road about a year and a half
If we go another mile we're gonna kick each other's ass
Someone's gonna quit or someone's gonna die
And we don't give a shit because we're busy getting' high
Another lawsuit and another arrest
Wouldn't change a thing because we love it to death

(Chorus)

We're the son's of the devil, were the blood on the stage
You can love us you can hate us but will never go away...

Goin' Out Swingin'
Just a gang of four
Got each other's back
Out for blood like wild dogs in a pack

Tearin' up the world
Put ourselves through hell
Just to have a story we can tell

You can't stop us cuz' we're

Goin' out, goin' out, goin' out, goin' out swingin'
If you got the balls to fight then come on bring it
Goin' out, goin' out, goin' out swingin
Like a midnight alley fight
Come on come on come on come on bring it

Local gutter rats
On the streets of gold
Crashing stolen cars and sellin' souls

Setting off alarms
Watch the system burn
Ain't it crazy how the tables turn

You can't stop us cuz' we're

Goin' out, goin' out, goin' out, goin' out swingin'
If you got the balls to fight then come on bring it
Goin' out, goin' out, goin' out swingin
Like a midnight alley fight
Come on come on come on come on bring it

Starlight
Far away
This ship has taken me far away
Far away from the memories
Of the people who care if I live or die

A starlight
I will be chasing a starlight
Until the end of my life
I don't know if it's worth it anymore

Hold you in my arms
I just wanted to hold
You in my arms

My life
You electrify my life
Let's conspire to ignite
All the souls that would die just to feel alive

I'll never let you go
If you promise not to fade away
Never fade away

Our hopes and expectations
Black holes and revelations
Our hopes and expectations
Black holes and revelations

Hold you in my arms

You in my arms

This ship has taken me far away
Far away from the memories
Of the people who care if I live or die

Never fade away

Our hopes and expectations
Black holes and revelations, yeah!
Our hopes and expectations
Black holes and revelations

Hold you in my arms
I just wanted to hold
You in my arms
I just wanted to hold

Supermassive Black Hole
Oh baby, don't you know I suffer?
Oh baby, can't you hear me moan?
You caught me under false pretenses,
How long before you let me go?

Oo-ah, you set my soul alight
Oo-ah, you set my soul alight
Glaciers melting in the dead of night, and the superstars sucked into the supermassive
(Oo-ah, you set my soul alight)
Glaciers melting in the dead of night, and the superstars sucked into the supermassive
(Oo-ah, you set my soul)

I thought I was a fool for no one
But oh baby, I'm a fool for you
You're the Queen of the superficial
But how long before you tell the truth?

Oo-ah, you set my soul alight
Oo-ah, you set my soul alight
Glaciers melting in the dead of night, and the superstars sucked into the supermassive
(Oo-ah, you set my soul alight)

Glaciers melting in the dead of night, and the superstars sucked into the supermassive
(Oo-ah, you set my soul)

(Supermassive black hole)

Map Of The Problematique
Fear and panic in the air
I want to be free
From desolation and despair
And I feel like everything I saw
Is being swept away
Well I refuse to let you go

I can't get it right
Get it right
Since I met you

Loneliness be over
When will this loneliness be over?

Life will flash before my eyes
So scattered and lost
I want to touch the other side
And no-one thinks they are to blame
Why can't we see
That when we bleed, we bleed the same

I can't get it right
Get it right
Since I met you

Loneliness be over
When will this loneliness be over?
Loneliness be over
When will this loneliness be over?

Soldiers Poem
Throw it all away
Let's lose ourselves
'cause there's no one left for us to blame
It's a shame we're all dying
And do you think you deserve your freedom?

How could you send us so far away from home
When you know damn well that this is wrong
I would still lay down my life for you
And do you think you deserve your freedom?

No, I don't think you do
There's no justice in the world
There's no justice in the world
And there never was

Invincible
Follow through
Make your dreams come true
Don't give up the fight
You will be alright
'cause there's no one like you in the universe

Don't be afraid
What your mind consumes
You should make a stand
Stand up for what you believe
And tonight
We can truly say
Together we're invincible

During the struggle
They will pull us down
But please, please
Let's use this chance
To turn things around
And tonight
We can truly say
Together we're invincible

Do it on your own
It makes no difference to me
What you leave behind
What you choose to be
And whatever they say
Your soul's unbreakable

During the struggle
They will pull us down
But please, please
Let's use this chance
To turn things around
And tonight
We can truly say
Together we're invincible

Together we're invincible

During the struggle
They will pull us down
Please, please
Let's use this chance
To turn things around
And tonight
We can truly say
Together we're invincible

Together we're invincible

Assassin
War is overdue
The time has come for you
To shoot your leaders down
Join forces underground

Lose control
Increasing pace
Warped and bewitched
Time to erase

Whatever they say
These people are torn
Wild and bereft
Assassin is born

(whispered) Aim, Shoot, Kill your leaders.

Oppose and disagree
Destroy demonacracy

Lose control
Increasing pace
Warped and bewitched
Time to erase

Whatever they say
These people are torn
Wild and bereft
Assassin is born

Exo Politics
Open the skies over me
I am waiting patiently
I'll wait for a sign
As conspiracies unwind
Will you slam shut or free your mind
Or stay hypnotised?

When the Zetas fill the skies
Will our leaders tell us why?
Fully loaded satellites
Will conquer nothing but our minds

I'm waiting patiently
I'll wait for the sign

Carried through the centuries
Secrets locked up
And loaded on my back
Well it weighs me down...

When the Zetas fill the skies
It's just our leaders in disguise
Fully loaded satellites
Will conquer nothing but our minds

I'm waiting patiently
I'll wait for the sign
I'm waiting patiently
I'll wait for the sign

City Of Delusion
Stay away from me
Build a fortress
And shield your beliefs
Touch the divine
As we fall in line

Can I believe
When I don't trust
All your theories
Turn to dust
I choose to hide
From the all seeing eye

Destroy this city of delusion
And break these walls down
And I will avenge
And justify my reasons with your blood

You'll not rest
Settle for less
Until you guzzle
And squander what's left
Do not deny
Yet you live and let die

Destroy this city of delusion
And break these walls down
And I will avenge
And justify my reasons with your blood

Destroy this city of delusion
And break these walls down
And I will avenge
And justify my reasons with your blood

Hoodoo
Come into my life
Regress into a dream
We will hide
And build a new reality

Draw another picture
Of the life you could have had
Follow your instincts
And choose the other path

You should never be afraid
You're protected from trouble and pain
Why, why is this a crisis
In your eyes again?

Come to be
How did it come to be
Tied to a railroad
No love to set us free
Watch our souls fade away
And our bodies crumbling
Don't be afraid
I will take the blow for you

And I've had recurring nightmares
That I was loved for who I am
And missed the opportunity
To be a better man

Knights Of Cydonia
Come ride with me
Through the veins of history
I'll show you a god
who falls asleep on the job
And how can we win
When fools can be kings
Don't waste your time
Or time will waste you

No one's gonna take me alive
The time has come to make things right
You and I must fight for our rights
You and I must fight to survive

Glorious (bonus Track)
Rose-tinted view
And satellites that compromise the truth
But I wanted more, with the cuts and the bruises
Touch my face, a hopeless embrace

Faith
Drives me away
But it turns me on
Like a strangers love
It rockets through the universe
It fuels the lies, it feeds the curse
Believes we could be
Glorious

I need to believe

But I still want more, with the cuts and the bruises
Don't close the door, on what you adore

Faith
Drives me away
But it turns me on
Like a strangers love
It rockets through the universe
It fuels the lies, it feeds the curse
Believes we could be
Glorious

Wall Of Jericho - All Hail The Dead

noreply@blogger.com (Tambenk) — Sat, 31 May 2008 20:33:00 +0000

All Hail The Dead
all hail the ones that take from life without giving back.
what's ours is ours.
control is all you crave, a fucking paycheck is all you are.
our world is crashing down before our fucking eyes.
we strive to be perfect in this imperfect world, so watch her starve herself.
struggle to fit the mold, as she makes her self sick, it should make us all sick.
we can't go on like this, we can't go on like this.
know your fucking role they say, as they die fighting beauty.
but they never knew that they were truly beautiful.
and we can't go on like this.
with our brainwashed minds, as they die fighting beauty.
because we're slaves to the system
we can't go on like this, let the dead be dead.
you corporate fuck, it's time to fight this.
the status quo, it's time to fight this.
our broken families, it's time to fight this.
your billboard barbie, it's time to fight this.
let the dead be dead, all hail the dead.

There's No I In Fuck You
here i am a poster board pinup for you to hate,
someone who once cared now nothing is holding me back.
i am no more an image of what you thought i should be,
the choice you've made and forced upon me.
so go on and hate me if you must, but honestly i don't give a fuck.
with my friends by my side i can get through anything,
with you on my side we can destroy everything.
for those who continue to comare to this false idea,
what do you expect from me,
sing a lullaby scream you to sleep, i'm fucking sick of it being your way.
you don't love me, you love the person you think i am
a poster board pinup for you to love.
you don't hate me, you love the person you think i am
a poster board pinup for you to hate.
what you may see on the outside might not hold true to your heart, so here i am.
the real deal take it or not, like i've said before i don't give a fuck.

A Little Piece Of Me
let's not sugar coat this, it's not that sweet,
my mind restrains my lips from speaking those words no one wants to hear,
those words someone has to say.
it's time to kiss goodbye.
i'm so close to ripping out my heart, i'm so close to throwing it in your face.
where would i be then?
no better off than i am now.
alone, afraid, desensitized.
this is not the first time and i'm sure its not the last.
this is the one thing i am sure of, the one thing i know.
let me ask you a question, do you know what's wrong with me?
can you give me an answer?
if not then leave me the fuck alone, quit playing hero.
honestly these tears are not for you, these tears are for me.
the me inside of me, the one that no one has seen, the me i strive to be.
i am so alone, now i'm afraid of becoming desensitized.
at least i think that's what i want.
do you know what i want?
do you know who i am?
do you like who i've become?

Another Anthem For The Hopeless
to whom it may concern another anthem for the hopeless.
a life so innocent that day was not the same.
experience that would change her life forever.
she sang her fucking song tried to make a change.
but the change came from with in herself.
forever in debt to the nightmare in my head.
how much more can i feel, before it ruins me?
this will not control me that is what i fight for.
when will it be my turn?
when will all i fight for take its toll on me?
becuase i can not see my future lie ahead of me.
i'm fucking in debt to the nightmare in my head.
the one you put there, i'm taking back what you took away.
it's my turn now to bury this along with you.
it's my time for her to dream sweet songs again,
it's time for her dream alone again.

Revival Never Goes Out Of Style
i remember those days, when we were screaming for change.
when it was more than just fashion and fame.
our goals all seemed one and the same, and we sang the song of revolution.
the sky seemed endless there was no stopping us.
and i felt, we felt, like nothing could stand in our way.
and if i scream as loud as i can, it's got to fucking break,
we will raise our fists and fight for our own place.
all this time wishing our voices could be heard,
now we finally have a voice and no one says a fucking word.
so let's scream as loud as we can and make it fucking break,
and let nothing stand in our way, stand in our way.

A Day And A Thousand Years
commit the comprimise.
restricts our rights the education society gives us.
you establish with your advertised tables.
what gives you our rights?
laws shouldn't be put to what we read and hear.
should nothing be said?
shall we compromise?
no.
our freedom, our rights, your mind.
tear down the walls.
what can break must be broken.
you have proven, one person can omit regulations.
that can control our freedoms, our rights, and your fucking mind.

Through The Eyes Of A Dreamer
chase life, don't let monotony burn another day.
don't let it be regret that falls on your lap.
it pains me to think of all the time spent looking for change,
but the change lies there with in ourselves.
this moment in your life, has never been more right.
it's time to overcome and leave the past behind regret is needless pain.
dream like you'll live for ever, live like you'll die tomorrow

– 1:43 AM
i don't want to feel anymore.
this is the one we've been waiting for.
i'm done offering my life to you.
this fake smiles' time is up.
why is it that what we do is never enough?
no matter how hard we try, it never turns out right.
i can't stand feeling pulled from every direction, no more.
my uncertainities are making it hard ot breathe.
it's time to go on in this life.
i'm moving on from you, i'm letting you go, i don't want to feel anymore.
i'm done hiding it well, i need to lose control and let it work out for itself.
i'm not going to wait around and see not anymore.

Jaded
so i shut my self down again, and wipe away my surroundings.
while the pain in my heart reminds me of time spent and forgotten.
alone but capable to see through your shit,
i will bloom into what's unexpected of me,
because your fucked up reality has driven me to this insanity.
how do you like me now?
that what i thought.
disappear.
melt into the cracks i created for you,
at least you can do is play the part, the one i wrote for you.
now time is wasting, and i have ruined many makeup days on your behalf.
another day will end, at least there's tomorrow

Thanks For The Memories
a friendship slowly deteoriates.
a hand that pushes us apart.
i remember when you were the one, that i would turn to.
when nothing you had thought was wrong, we were the invincible ones.
thanks for the memories now that you're gone.
what the fuck should i think when you let everything get in your way?
so much holds you down so much holds you back.
are you the same?
maybe i've changed.
now we're stuck together, and our hatred grows stronger for each other.
and it tears me apart knowing you're fucked in the head,
and everything is all for you,
and fuck me for caring and sticking around.
fuck you for holding me down.
we were the invincible ones.
what went wrong?

More Life In The Monitors
this is what i do, me here in front of you.
this is my life, this is my everything.
it's in my heart, help me keep it dear,
and i wil fight to keep my dreams alive.
you here with us, there's nowhere else i want to be.
this is the one thing we can't let fade away.
this is our life.
it's what drives us to go on.
this is our life.
no one can hold us back.

Fixing Broken Hearts
you can't imagine how much this fucking hurts.
how torn apart my mind has become.
i need to spare myself, from these endless tears.
i no longer want to look into the mirror.
i'm tired of being strong.
do you ever feel so alone, your own existence goes unnoticed.
yes, i'm talking about myself,
i'm not afraid to say i'm so tired of impressing you.
have you ever rebelled against everything you believed, how fucked is that?
this needs to be for me i need to fix this broken, fix this broken heart.
one day rejection will be off my doorstep,
and your eyes will fill with the passion that pumps through my veins
and falls from my eyes.
you are my demise.
and through it kisses my heart, i am still broken.

To be Continued...

Dashboard Confessional - Dusk And Summer

noreply@blogger.com (Tambenk) — Fri, 30 May 2008 16:39:00 +0000

Don't Wait
The sky glows
I see it shining when my eyes close
I hear your warnings but we both know
I'm gonna look at it again

Don't wait, Don't wait
The road is now a sudden sea
And suddenly, you're deep enough
To lay your armor down
To lay your armor down
To lay your armor down

You get one look
I'll show you something that the knife took.
A bit to early for my own good
Now let's not speak of it again

Don't wait, Don't wait
The road is now a sudden sea
And suddenly, you're deep enough
To lay your armor down
To lay your armor down
To lay your armor down

Don't wait, Don't wait
The lights will flash and fade away
The days will pass you by
Don't wait
To lay your armor down [x5]

Reason To Believe
Oh sweet lungs don't fail me now
Your burning has turned into fear
Drills me in my every step, i'm moving quick but you're always on my heals

Just one more breath, i beg you please
Just one more step, my knees are weak
My heart is sturdy but it needs you to survive
My heart is sturdy but it needs you

Breathe, don't you want to breathe
I know that you are strong enough to handle what i need
My capillaries scream, there's nothing left to feed on
My body needs a reason to cross that line
Will you carry me there one more time?

Steady lungs, don't fail me now
I feel you bursting but you won't let me die
Fill me up with every step
I'm feeling sick, but i'm leaving it behind

Just one long breath i beg you please
Just one more step you are not weak
My legs are sturdy but they need you to survive
My heart is sturdy but i need you

Breathe, don't you want to breathe
And know that you are strong enough to handle what i need
My capillaries scream, there's nothing left to feed on
My body needs a reason to cross that line
Will you carry me there once more?

I have reason to believe that i have victories to taste
I can feel them on my teeth, upon my lips and in my chest
I can roll them on my tongue, they are more subtle than defeat
I feel the tension in my lungs and every move is filled by my resolve to

Breathe, don't you want to breathe
I know that you are strong enough to handle what i need
My capillaries scream, there's nothing left to feed on
My body needs a reason to cross that line
Will you carry me there one more time?

The Secret's In The Telling
The signal is subtle
We pass just close enough to touch
No questions, no answers
We know by now to say enough
With only simple words
With only subtle turns
The things we feel alone for one another

There is a secret that we keep
I won't sleep if you won't sleep
Because tonight may be the last chance we'll be given
We are compelled to do what we must do
We are compelled to do what we have been forbidden

So I won't sleep if you won't sleep tonight

Our act of defiance
We keep this secret in our blood
No paper or letters
We pass just close enough to touch
We love in secret names
We hide within our veins
The things that keep us bound to one another

There is a secret that we keep
I won't sleep if you won't sleep
Because tonight may be the last chance we'll be given
We are compelled to do what we must do
We are compelled to do what we have been forbidden

Until the last trace and this hope
Is frozen deep inside my bones
And this broken fate has claimed me
And my memories for its own
Your name is pounding through my veins
Can't you hear how it is sung?
And I can taste you in my mouth
Before the words escape my lungs
And I'll whisper only once...

There is a secret that we keep
I won't sleep if you won't sleep
Because tonight may be the last chance we'll be given
We are compelled to do what we have to
We are compelled to do what we have been forbidden

'Cause you will be somebody's girl
And you will keep each other warm
But tonight I am feeling cold

Stolen
We watch the season pull up its own stakes
And catch the last weekend of the last week
Before the gold and the glimmer have been replaced
Another sun soaked season fades away

You have stolen my heart
You have stolen my heart

Invitation only grand farewells
Crash the best one of the best ones
Clear liquor and cloudy eyed, too early to say goodnight

You have stolen my heart
You have stolen my heart

And from the ballroom floor we are a celebration
One good stretch before our hibernation
Our dreams assured and we all will sleep well

Sleep well
Sleep well
Sleep well
Sleep well

You have stolen my
You have stolen my
You have stolen my heart

I watch you spin around in your highest heels
You are the best one of the best ones
We all look like we feel

You have stolen my
You have stolen my
You have stolen my heart

Rooftops And Invitations
The first time you looked at her curves you were hooked
And the glances you took, took hold of you and demanded that you stay
And sunk in their teeth, bit your heart and released
Such a charge that you need another touch, another taste, another fix

She just might get you lost
And she just might leave you torn
But she just might save your soul
If she gets you when she gets you any closer

She leads you up, points out skylines and stars, steeple chases in bars
And took your keys and demanded that you stay
The city longs well for rooftops and invitations
All lace in secret places, she moves you to touch with her hands

And she just might get you lost
And she just might leave you torn
But she just might save your soul
If she gets you when she gets you any closer

Under the cold sheet, where the welcomed touch of skin and skin will meet
Out on the inside where a girls prize is at the tip of your tongue
Where every move and each impulse brings clarity
To stay like this is everything you'll ever need

She just might get you lost
And she just might leave you torn
But she just might save your soul
But she gets you any closer

Can you believe your eyes

So Long, So Long
Hand out the window
Floatin' on air
Just a flip of the wrist
I?d be wavin? you goodbye

Drive past the lifeguard stand
Where I sit around waiting for you to remember
Well past the beach hotels
Where the girls are getting? bronzed on their monogrammed towels

I drive this ocean road
And I remember

How the girls could turn to ghosts before your eyes
And the very dreams that led to them are keeping them from dying
And how the grace with which she walked into your life
Will stay with you in your steps,
Paced with you a while
So long, so long [x2]

The speaker in this door is blown
So nothing sounds quite right
And I drive this ocean road
And remember
The small of your back
And the nape of your neck
And the soft way you?d hold me in the night

I remember

How the girls can turn to ghosts before your eyes
And the very dreams that led to them are keeping them from dying
And how the grace with which she walked into your life
Will stay with you in your steps,
Pace with you a while
So long, so long...

And I will leave under the cover
Of summer?s kiss upon the sky
Like the storm face of your lover
Just before she says goodbye
I was thinking that the season could be held between my arms
But just as summer?s hold is fleeting
I was here and now I?m gone
I?m gone...

Currents
The air is visible around you, rising up and off your lips in slow currents
And i watch as your face is framed in its slow currents
Drifting curls a trailing path
A long drag becomes a dress of blue and ash

If it is born in flames then we should let it burn
Burn as brightly as we can
And if its gotta end then let it end in flames
Let it burn all the way down

The air is visceral around us, turning in its simple steps on slow currents
And i watch as it pirouettes and spins
in slow motion
A long drag becomes a
a slow dance and a halo around her

If it is born in flames then we should let it burn
Burn as brightly as we can
And if its gotta end then let it end in flames
Let it burn all the way down, all the way down

And if this is ever meant to end, then i hope it ends where it began
So hot with love, we burned our hands
If this is ever meant to end, then i hope it ends where it began
So hot with love, it burns our hands

If it is born in flames then we should let it burn
Burn as brightly as we can
If its gotta end then let it end in flames
Let it burn, let it burn
If its gotta end let it burn
If its gotta end let it burn

Slow Decay
Stand down son, start resting easy
You've done your service, i am proud to have you home and see you safe, it's so good
You look so strong in that picture on the mantle you sent your mom when you were gone
But you look scared now, hollow eyed

When are you coming
When are you coming back where you belong
I swear that it's safe here, there's nothing to fear at all
Come on back where you belong, the pressure releases if you just let down your guard

Everything rests on you
You know that feeling well, the ball is falling,
Falling, falling, so far from a close call
Your injuries aren't mortal wounds,
The only thing that's killing you is what you saw,
What you couldn't stop
But you're not the one i blame, it wasn't your mistake

You're safe now so come on back where you belong
I swear that it's safe here, there's nothing to fear at all
Come on back where you belong,
The pressure releases if you just let down your guard

It's the simple things dad, i'm not hurt, i'm not dead,
I just should be where my friends are lying
And i didn't hate those that i killed but they're all dead now
But i'm here alive with satellites and friday nights
And no one to judge me for the things that i've done and all
So how can i live with that?

Back where i belong
Take me back where i belong, you swear that it's safe here
Theres nothing to fear at all
Take me back where i belong, the pressure releases
I just let down my guard

Dusk And Summer
She smiled in a big way, the way a girl like that smiles
When the world is hers and she held your eyes
Out in the breezeway down by the shore in the lazy summer
And she pulled you in, and she bit your lip, and she made you hers
She looked deep into you as you lay together quiet in the grasp of dusk and summer

But you've already lost
When you only had barely enough to hang on

And she combed your hair, and she kissed your teeth
And she made you better than you'd been before
She told you bad things you wished you could change in the lazy summer
And she told you, laughing down to her core, so she would not cry as she lay in your lap
She said "nobody here can live forever, quiet in the grasp of dusk and summer"

But you've already lost
When you only had barely enough to hang on

She said, "no one is alone the way you are alone"
And you held her looser than you would have if you ever could have known
Some things tie your life together, slender threads and things to treasure
Days like that should last and last and last

But you've already lost
When you only had barely enough of her to hang on

Heaven Here
We are the only ones who feel it
Tonight we drink, tonight we dance with all the last ones who can hear it
We're calling in whispers, we're tired of waiting
We'll take what we want and leave, leave what we know behind

We are still dreamers in our dead sleep, naked and tangled, twisted in love
And tonight we are the only ones who feel it
So let it last all night, so let it last all night
Let the fire surround us, let it all cave in, let it all burn wild
We are leaving it all behind, we are leaving it all behind
Heaven is here

We are tangled and brave
We are leaking and saved
When heaven's not waiting, it's spilling its secrets
It's right here between us, and we've no other choice but believe
So let it last all night

Naked and tangled and twisted in love
And tonight we are the only ones who feel it
Heaven is here
And tonight we are the only ones who feel it

an anesthetic penance beneath
the hail of contraband

a vivid dissection that mocked
the strut of vivisection
semi-automatic colonies
and a silencing that still walks the streets

Pinch history feel the pinch blistering
Pinch me in my dreams cause i'm still not listening
X marks the spot on your calendar days
A beard half eaten smiled crawling with legs

Temper temper temperature

Manuscript replica
(Cu-cu-cu-cu-cut it)

In infrared is how we saw the night that lit up scarecrow plots
The nerve that pinches crippled hobbled frolicked flat on its own face
In infrared is how we saw the night that lit up scarecrow plots
The nerve that pinches crippled hobbled frolicked flat on its own face

Jigsaw pattern dominoes left a trail
The whites of their eyes polaroids of the tale
For our amusement we bring stares to the defendants
Mechanical panaceas absolved by history
Phonetic paralysis inflicted through morality
The seed that it nurtured was a wilted bouquet

Temper temper temperature

Manuscript replica
(cu-cu-cu-cu-cut it)

Squirming through cuts in a throat cut it... cut it...

Quarantined
autonomous machete for hands
warden and judge hide behind masks
wet raindrop lull
small rationing
exhumed the rhetoric of
break the weak in single file
sanction this outbreak- a virus conspires
push becomes shove, days become months
i seem to have forgotten the warmth of the sun

feeding frenzy, it's contagious
have trigger, will travel
single sparks are spectral fires

shackled the grapple and the sentinels found
binoculars watch cardboard towns
strung up in webs the net was flung
over the auditorium
slave trade the weak, no call to arms
sanction this outbreak; a virus conspires
push becomes shove, days become months
and i seem to have forgotten the warmth of the sun

a single spark can start a spectral fire
have trigger, will travel

Cosmonaut
we sample from the shelves
tore a page out of this chapter
deface the essays in the book that you're reading
we are the leaches that stop the bleeding
deficit attention program
by any means necessary
blare sirens to the library
whisper instructions to the book-wormed glossary

is it heavier than air - tell us, is the black box lying?

aeronautics hacked
the spine of paragraphs
prepare to indent, a coma that read-
floating in a soundproof costume
here comes the monolith
brass knuckles for the hissie fit
an abbreviation for the landing of fleets
incoming

position the stitches - like miles of torpedoes
permission was hinted
lungs that hollered in a sleeper hold

is it heavier than air - am i supposed to die alone?

Non-Zero Possibility
I'm just tired of counting bodies
is this mausoleum tardy
let's just paint you a pretty face
flies dip tongues into tear ducts
in toothpicks fought unborn

contusion is hungry
they still eat their young
proto-culture null and void

all veins in highway laps
this breath collapsed again
this hex was delivered spent
orchestra influenza
drawn and quartered pets
it dwells and grows

this is the pocket-sized edition
rapid sleep through benediction
let's just paint you a pretty face
museums mark their bodies down
all the tenants found
all the distance in their prefix

contusion is hungry
they still eat their young
proto-culture null and void

all veins in highway laps
this breath collapsed again
this hex was delivered spent
orchestra influenza
drawn and quartered pets
it dwells and grows

fever bliss into central nervousness
bitten on the entrance
I was bitten on the entrance
fever bliss into central nervousness
bitten on the entrance
I was bitten on the entrance

bitten on the entrance
I was bitten on the entrance
bitten on the entrance
bitten...

Is it getting better?
Or do you feel the same?
Will it make it easier on you now?
You got someone to blame
You say
One love
One life
When it's one need
In the night
One love
We get to share it
Leaves you baby if you
Don't care for it

Did I disappoint you?
Or leave a bad taste in your mouth?
You act like you never had love
And you want me to go without
Well it's

Too late
Tonight
To drag the past out into the light
We're one, but we're not the same
We get to
carry each other
carry each other
One

Have you come here for forgiveness?
Have you come to raise the dead?
Have you come here to play Jesus?
To the lepers in your head

Did I ask too much?
More than a lot.
You gave me nothing,
Now it's all I got
We're one
But we're not the same
See we
Hurt each other
Then we do it again
You say
Love is a temple
Love a higher law
Love is a temple
Love is a higher law
You ask me to enter
But then you make me crawl
And I can't keep holding on
To what you got
When all you've got is hurt

One love
One blood
One life
You got to do what you should

The Cure - Pictures Of You

noreply@blogger.com (Tambenk) — Thu, 10 Jan 2008 15:23:00 +0000

I've been looking so long
At these pictures of you
That I almost believe that they're real
I've been living so long
With my pictures of you
That I almost believe
That the pictures are all I can feel
Remembering you
Standing quiet in the rain
As I ran to your heart to be near
And we kissed as the sky fell in
Holding you close
How I always held close in your fear
Remembering you
Running soft through the night
You were bigger and brighter
And wider than snow
And screamed at the make-believe
Screamed at the sky
And you finally found all your courage
To let it all go
Remembering you
Fallen into my arms
Crying for the death
Of your heart
You were stone white
So delicate lost in the cold
You were always
So lost in the dark
Remembering you
How you used to be
Slow drowned you were angels
So much more than everything
Oh hold for the last time
Then slip away
Quietly
Open my eyes
But I never see
Anything
If only I'd thought
Of the right words
I could have held onto your heart
If only I'd thought
Of the right words
I wouldn't be breaking apart
All my pictures of you
Looking so long
At these pictures of you
But I never hold onto your heart
Looking so long
For the words to be true
But always just breaking apart
My pictures of you
There was nothing in the world
That I ever wanted more
Than to feel you deep in my heart
There was nothing in the world
That I ever wanted more
Than to never feel the breaking apart
All my pictures of you

The Cure - Friday I'm In Love

noreply@blogger.com (Tambenk) — Sun, 06 Jan 2008 15:21:00 +0000

I don't care if monday's blue
Tuesday's grey and wednesday too
Thursday I don't care about you
It's friday I'm in love!
Monday you can fall apart
Tuesday wednesday break my heart
Thursday doesn't even start
It's friday I'm in love!
Saturday wait
And sunday always comes too late
But friday never hesitate...
I don't care if monday's black
Tuesday wednesday heart attack
Thursday never looking back
It's friday I'm in love!
Monday you can hold your head
Tuesday wednesday stay in bed
Or thursday watch the walls instead
It's friday I'm in love!
Saturday wait
And sunday always comes too late
But friday never hesitate...
Dressed up to the eyes
It's a wonderful surprise
To see your shoes and your spirits rise
Throwing out your frown
And just smiling at the sound
And as sleek as a shriek
Spinning round and round
Always take a big bite
It's such a gorgeous sight
To see you eat in the middle of the night
You can never get enough
Enough of this stuff
It's friday
I'm in love!

Nancy Sinatra - Bang, Bang
I was five and he was six
We rode on horses made of sticks
He wore black and I wore white
He could always win the fight

Bang bang he shot me down
Bang bang I hit the ground
Bang bang that awful sound
Bang bang my baby shot me down

Seasons came and changed the time
When I grew up, I called him mine
He would always laugh and say
Remember when we used to play

Bang bang I shot you down
Bang bang you hit the ground
Bang bang that awful sound
Bang bang I used to shoot you down

The music played and people sang
And just for me the church bells rang

Now he's gone I don't know why
And ‘till this day some times I cry
He didn't even say goodbye
He didn't take the time to lie

Bang bang he shot me down
Bang bang I hit the ground
Bang bang that awful sound
Bang bang my baby shot me down

Lou Reed - Perfect Day

noreply@blogger.com (Tambenk) — Fri, 04 Jan 2008 15:01:00 +0000

Just a perfect day
drink Sangria in the park
And then later
when it gets dark, we go home

Just a perfect day
feed animals in the zoo
Then later
a movie, too, and then home

Oh, it's such a perfect day
I'm glad I spend it with you
Oh, such a perfect day
You just keep me hanging on 2X

Just a perfect day
problems all left alone
Weekenders on our own
it's such fun

Just a perfect day
you made me forget myself
I thought I was
someone else, someone good

Oh, it's such a perfect day
I'm glad I spent it with you
Oh, such a perfect day
You just keep me hanging on 2X

You're going to reap just what you sow X4

The Who - Behind Blue Eyes

noreply@blogger.com (Tambenk) — Thu, 03 Jan 2008 15:46:00 +0000

No one knows what it's like
To be the bad man
To be the sad man
Behind blue eyes

No one knows what it's like
To be hated
To be fated
To telling only lies

But my dreams
They aren't as empty
As my conscience seems to be

I have hours, only lonely
My love is vengeance
That's never free

No one knows what it's like
To feel these feelings
Like I do
And I blame you

No one bites back as hard
On their anger
None of my pain and woe
Can show through

But my dreams
They aren't as empty
As my conscience seems to be

I have hours, only lonely
My love is vengeance
That's never free

When my fist clenches, crack it open
Before I use it and lose my cool
When I smile, tell me some bad news
Before I laugh and act like a fool

If I swallow anything evil
Put your finger down my throat
If I shiver, please give me a blanket
Keep me warm, let me wear your coat

No one knows what it's like
To be the bad man
To be the sad man
Behind blue eyes

U2 - Pop

noreply@blogger.com (Tambenk) — Tue, 01 Jan 2008 17:48:00 +0000

Discothèque

You can reach
But you can't grab it
You can hold it, control it
No, you can't bag it

You can push
But you can't direct it
Circulate, regulate, oh no
You cannot connect it

You know you're chewing bubblegum
You know what that is
But you still want some
'Cause you just can't get enough
Of that lovie dovie stuff

You get confused
But you know it
Yeah, you hurt for it, work for it, love
You don't always show it

Let go
Let's go
Let's go
Discotheque
(Hi, come on child)

Oh oh
Let go
Let go
Discotheque

You're looking for the one
But you know you're somewhere else instead
You want to be the song
Be the song that you hear in your head

Love...
Ooo, love...
Love...

It's not a trick
'Cause you can't learn it
It's the way you don't pay, that's okay
'Cause you can't earn it (yeah)

You know you're chewing bubblegum
You know what that is
But you still want some
You just can't get enough
Of that lovie dovie stuff

Let go
Let go
Oh oh oh
Discotheque
(Come on, come on)

Go girl
Go girl
Ah ha ha
Discotheque
(I want you)
(I want you)

Oh, Ooo, oh / (Mmm-love-mmm)

You're looking for the one
But you know you're somewhere else instead
You want to be the song
Be the song that you hear in your head
Love...

You want heaven in your heart
Heaven in your heart
The sun, the moon, and the stars

But you take what you can get
'Cause it's all that you can find
But you know there's something more
But tonight, tonight, tonight

Ah, high
High, high
High, high
High, high

Boom Cha, Boom Cha, Discotheque
Boom Cha, Boom Cha, Discotheque / I paid, get in, I can't, not enough
Boom Cha, Boom Cha, Discotheque / I paid, get in, I can't, not enough
Boom Cha, Boom Cha, Discotheque / I paid, get in, I can't, not enough
Boom Cha, Boom Cha, Discotheque

Do You Feel Loved

Take these hands they're good for nothing
You know these hands never worked a day
Take these boots they're going nowhere
You know these boots don't want to stray

You got my head filled with songs
You got my shoelaces undone
Take my shirt, go on take it off me
You can tear it up
If you can tie me down

Do you feel loved
Do you feel loved
Do you feel loved
Do you feel loved

Take the colours of my imagination
Take the scent hanging in the air
Take this tangle of a conversation
And turn it into your own prayer

With my fingers as you want them
With my nails under your hide
With my teeth at your back
And my tongue to tell you the sweetest lies

Do you feel loved
Do you feel love
Do you feel loved
And it looks like the sun
But it feels like the rain

(I wouldn't hurt you)
(I wouldn't hurt you)
(I wouldn't hurt you)
(I wouldn't hurt you)

Love is coming, pushing and shoving
In the belly of a woman
Heavy rhythm taking over
To stick together
A man and a woman
Stick together
Man and woman
Stick together

And I feel loved
Do you feel loved
Do you feel loved
And it looks like the sun
But it feels like rain
And there's heat in the sun
To see us through the rain

Do you feel loved

Mofo

Looking for to save my save my soul
Looking in the places where no flowers grow
Looking for to fill that God shaped hole
Mother... mother sucking rock and roll, mother...

Holy dunc, spacejunk coming in for the splash
(Been around back... been around front)
Wh-wh-white dopes on punk s-staring into the flash
(Been around back... been around front)
Looking for the baby Jesus under the trash
(Been around back... been around front)

Mother... mother sucking rock and roll, mother...
Bubble popping, to the rock and... rock and... rock and roll, mother...

Mother... mother... mother...

Mother... am I still your son
You know I've waited for so long to hear you say so
Mother... you left and made me someone
Now I'm still a child, no one tells me no

Looking for a sound that's going drown out the world
(Been around back... been around front)
Looking for the father of my two little girls
(Been around back... been around front)
Got the swing, got the sway, got my straw in lemonade
(Been around back... been around front)
Still looking for the face I had before the world was made
(Been around back... been around front)

Mother... mother sucking rock and roll, mother...
Hopping popping shopping dropping, it's rock and roll, mother...
Mother... mother suck, yeah, fuck yeah, mother...

Mother... mother... mother...

Soothe me mother
Rule me father
Fool me brother
Woo me sister
Soothe me mother
Rule me father
Show me mother
Show me mother
Show me mother
Show me mother
Show me mother

If God Will Send His Angels

Nobody else here baby
No one here to blame
No one to point the finger
Its just you and me and the rain

Nobody made you do it
No one put words in your mouth
Nobody here taking orders
When love took a train heading south

Its the blind leading the blond
Its the stuff, its the stuff of country songs

Hey if God will send his angels
And if God will send a sign
And if God will send his angels
Would everything be alright

God has got his phone off the hook, babe
Would he even pick up if he could
Its been a while since we saw that child
Hanging round this neighbourhood
You see his mother dealing in a doorway
See father christmas with a begging bowl
Jesus sisters eyes are a blister
The high street never looked so low

Its the blind leading the blond
Its the cops collecting for the cons
So where is the hope and where is the faith
And the love...whats that you say to me
Does love...light up your christmas tree
The next minute youre blowing a fuse
And the cartoon network turns into the news

If God will send his angels
And if God will send a sign
And if God will send his angels
Where do we go
Where do we go

Jesus never let me down
You know jesus used to show me the score
Then they put jesus in show business
Now its hard to get in the door

Its the stuff, its the stuff of country songs
But I guess it was something to go on

If God will send his angels
I sure could use them here right now
Well if God would send his angels

I dont want to lie
(where do we go)
I dont want to have a feel for the song
And I want to love, and i...
(where do we go)
And I want to feel alone

Staring At The Sun

Summer stretching on the grass
Summer dresses pass
In the shade of a willow tree
Creeps a crawling over me
Over me and over you
Stuck together with God's glue
It's going to get stickier too

It's been a long hot summer
Let's get under cover
Don't try too hard to think
Don't think at all

I'm not the only one
Staring at the sun
Afraid of what you'll find
If you took a look inside
I'm not just deaf and dumb
Staring at the sun
Not the only one
Who's happy to go blind

There's an insect in your ear
If you scratch it won't disappear
It's gonna itch and burn and sting
You want to see what the scratching brings
Waves that leave me out of reach
Breaking on your back like a beach
Will we ever live in peace?

'Cause those that can't do
Often have to
And those that can't do
Often have to preach

To the ones
Staring at the sun
Afraid of what you'd find
If you took a look inside
Not just deaf and dumb
I'm staring at the sun
I'm not the only one
Who'd rather go blind

Intransigence is all around
Military still in town
Armour plated suits and ties
Daddy just won't say goodbye
Referee won't blow the whistle
God is good but will He listen
I'm nearly great
But there's something missing

I left it in the duty free area
But you never really belonged to me

You're not the only one
Staring at the sun
Afraid of what you'd find
You step back inside
Not sucking on my thumb
I'm staring at the sun
I'm not the only one
Who's happy to go blind

Last Night On Earth

(What the fear calls down, stops the car)
(As it feels like rage)
(She's back on the street)
(But it swings so far away)

She feels the ground is giving way
But she thinks we're better off that way
The more you take the less you feel
The less you know the more you believe
The more you have the more it takes today

You got to give it away / You got to give it away

Well she don't care what it's worth
She's living like it's the last night on earth
The last night on earth

She's not waiting on a saviour to come
(Hows-ya classy)
She's at the bus-stop with News of the World and the Sun
Sun, here it comes
She's not waiting for anyone

You got to give it away / You got to give it away

Well she don't care what it's worth
She's living like it's the last night on earth
The last night on earth

Clock tells her that time is slipping / Slipping away
Tear drop sunshine / Slip slide
Two sides to one feels missing / Too heavy
Something she might be missing / Slipping away
World turns and we get dizzy / The world turns....
Spinning for you / ...and we get dizzy
The way it's spinning for me / Slipping away

She's living, living next week now
You know she's going to pay it back somehow
She hasn't been to bed in a week
She'll be dead soon then she'll sleep

You got to give it away / You got to give it away
You got to give it away

She already knows it hurts
She's living like it's the last night on earth
The last night on earth

(Last night)

Gone

You get to feel so guilty
You got so much for so little
Then you find that feeling just won't go away
You were holding on to every little thing so tighly
'Till there's nothing left for you anyway.

Goodbye, you can keep this suit of lights
I'll be up with the sun
I'm not coming down
I'm not coming down
I'm not coming down

You wanted to get somewhere so badly
You had to lose yourself along the way.
You changed your name
Well, that's okay, it's necessary
What you leave behind you don't miss anyway.

Goodbye, you can keep this suit of lights
I'll be up with the sun
I'm not coming down
I'm not coming down
I'm not coming down

'Cause I'm already gone
Felt that way all along.
Closer to you every day
I didn't want it that much anyway.

You're taking steps that make you feel dizzy
Then you learn to like the way it feels.
You hurt yourself, you hurt your lover
Then you discover
What you thought was freedom just was greed.

Goodbye, and it's an emotional
Goodnight, I'll be up with the sun.
Are you still holding on?
I'm not coming down
I'm not coming down
I'm not coming down.

Miami

Weather 'round here chopping and changing
Surgery in the air
Print shirts and southern accents
Cigars and big hair
We got the wheels, petrol's cheap
We only went there for a week
Got the sun, got the sand
Got the batteries in the handycam...

Her eyes are swimming pool blue
Dumb bells on a diving board
Baby's always attracted to the things she's afraid of
Big girl with the sweet tooth
Watches the skinny girl in the photo shoot
Freshmen, squeaky clean
She tastes of chlorine
(Miami), my mammy

Love the movies babe
Love to walk through the movie sets
Get to shoot someone in the foot
Get to smoke some cigarettes
No big deal we know the score
Just back from the video store
Got the car and the car chase
What's he got inside the case
I want a close up of that face
Here comes the car chase

I bought two new suits... Miami
Pink and blue... Miami
I took a picture of you... My mammy
Getting hot in a photo booth... Miami
I said you looked like a Madonna
You said maybe...
Said I want to have your baby... baby, baby
We could make something beautiful
Something that wouldn't be a problem
We could make something beautiful
Something that wouldn't be a problem
At least not in Miami

You know some places are like your auntie
But there's no place like
Miami, my mammy
Miami, my mammy
(Keys are in the car)
(Miami, my mammy)
Miami, my mammy

(Shake, shake down)
(Shake down...)

The Playboy Mansion

If Coke is a mystery, Michael Jackson History
If beauty is truth, and surgery the fountain of youth
What am I to do?
Have I got the gift to get me through
The gates of that Mansion

If OJ is more than a drink, a Big Mac bigger than you think
If perfume is an Obsession, then talk shows confession
What have we got to lose?
I'll never push my way through
The gates of that mansion

I never bought a Lotto ticket
I never parked in anyone's space
And the banks feel like cathedrals because casinos took their place
Luck, come on down
I wake up, she'll come around

Sex is a kind of religion
We're down for playin' hard luck
I never did see that movie, and I never did read that book
Luck, come on down, let my numbers come around

Don't know if I can hold on
Don't know if I'm that strong
Don't know if I can wait that long
Til the colors come flashing and the lights go on

Then will there be no time for sorrow
Then will there be no time for shame
And though I can't say why
I know I've got to believe

We'll go diving in their pool
It's who you know that gets you through
The gates in the Playboy Mansion
The Playboy Mansion
In the Playboy Mansion
Then will there be no time for sorrow?
Then will there be no time for shame?

If You Wear That Velvet Dress

Tonight the moon is playing tricks again
I'm feeling sea sick again
The whole world could just dissolve
Into a glass of water

I've been good 'cause I know you don't want me to
Do you really want me to be blue as you
It's her daylight that gets me through

We've been here before
Last time you scratched at my door
The moon was naked and cold
I was like a two year old
Who just wanted more

If you wear that velvet dress
If you wear that velvet dress

Tonight the moon has drawn its curtains
It's a private show
No one else going to know
I'm wanting

Sunlight, sunlight fills my room
It's sharp and it's clear
But nothing at all like the moon

It's okay, the struggle for things not to say
I never listened to you anyway
And I got my own hands to pray

But if you wear that velvet dress
But if you wear that velvet dress

Tonight the moon is a mirrorball
Light flickers from across the hall
Who'll catch the star when it falls

Please

So you never knew love
Until you crossed the line of grace.
And you never felt wanted
Till you'd someone slap your face.
So you never felt alive
Until you'd almost wasted away.

You had to win, you couldn't just pass
The smartest ass at the top of the class
Your flying colours, your family tree
And all your lessons in history.

Please, please, please
Get up off your knees.
Please, please, please, please, oh yeah.

And you never knew how low you'd stoop
To make that call
And you never knew what was on the ground
Till they made you crawl.
So you never knew that the heaven
You keep you stole.

Your Catholic blues, your convent shoes,
Your stick-on tattoos now they're making the news
Your holy war, your northern star
Your sermon on the mount from the boot of your car.

Please, please, please
Get up off your knees.
Please, please, please
Leave me out of this, please.

So love is hard
And love is tough
But love is not
What you're thinking of.

September, streets capsizing
Spilling over down the drains
Shard of glass, splinters like rain
But you could only feel your own pain.

October, talk getting nowhere.
November, December; remember
We just started again.

Please, please, please
Get up off your knees, yeah.
Please, please, please, please, ah.

So love is big
Is bigger than us.
But love is not
What you're thinking of.
It's what lovers deal
It's what lovers steal
You know I've found it
Hard to receive
'Cause you, my love
I could never believe.

Wake Up Dead Man

Jesus, Jesus help me
I'm alone in this world
And a fucked up world it is too
Tell me, tell me the story
The one about eternity
And the way it's all gonna be

Wake up, wake up dead man
Wake up, wake up dead man

Jesus, I'm waiting here boss
I know you're looking out for us
But maybe your hands aren't free
Your father, He made the world in seven
He's in charge of heaven
Will you put in a word in for me

Wake up, wake up dead man
Wake up, wake up dead man

Listen to your words they'll tell you what to do
Listen over the rhythm that's confusing you
Listen to the reed in the saxophone
Listen over the hum of the radio
Listen over sounds of blades in rotation
Listen through the traffic and circulation
Listen as hope and peace try to rhyme
Listen over marching bands playing out of time

Wake up, wake up dead man
Wake up, wake up dead man

Jesus, were you just around the corner
Did You think to try and warn her
Or are you working on something new
If there's an order in all of this disorder
Is it like a tape recorder
Can we rewind it just once more

Wake up, wake up dead man
Wake up, wake up dead man

Dear folks,

Actually i made this The Best Hits Lyrics blog to back up my favorite songs lyrics which i found over the internet. But i think its nice if I share it for you too.

Do you a singer, song writer or have a band and would like to publish your song's lyrics?
So don't be shy to send it to me so i could upload it at The Best Hits Lyrics.

That's all now folks. I will update then if i find anything related to this blog.

Regard and cheers...
