Most beautiful, most evocative, most touching - just your favourite song lyrics. My two would have to be VNV Nation's Joy and Placebo's Every You Every Me.

Have I no control, is my soul not mine?
Am I not just man, destiny defined?
Never to be ruled nor held to heel
Not heaven or hell just the land between
Am I not man, does my heart not bleed?
No lord, no God, no hate, no pity, no pain, just me
Comprehend and countermand
Synchronous guidance. I choose my way
Never to be ruled nor held to heel
No heaven or hell, just the land between

And am I not man?

So why do I love when I still feel pain?
When does it end, when is my work done?
Why am I lone and why do I feel that
I carry a sword through a battlefield?
So why do I love when I still feel pain?
When does it end, when is my work done?
Why do I fight and why do I feel that
I carry a sword, that I carry a sword?

Like the naked leads the blind
I know I'm selfish, I'm unkind
Sucker love I always find
Someone to bruise and leave behind

All alone in space and time
There's nothing here but what here's mine
Something borrowed, something blue
Every me and every you

-Placebo, Every You Every Me

well my favourite lyrics may not be inspiring and such.. but they are darn catchy.....

I like big butts and i cannot lie
you other brothers can't deny
when a girl walks in with an itty bitty waist and a round thing in your face
you get sprung
wanna pull out tough cuz you noticed that butt was stuffed
i'm hooked in the g she's wearing, i'm hooked and i can't stop staring
oh baby i wanna get wit cha, and take ya picture
my home boys tried to warn me,
but that but you got mamamakes me so horny
ohh rummple smooth skin, you say you wannna my binns
well use me, use me cuz you ain't that average goove be
i see her dancin.. to hell with romancin
she's sweat, wet got it going like a turbo jet
i'm tired of magazines saying flat butts are the thing,
you take the average black man and ask what he wants
she gotta pack much back
so fellas YEAH fellas YEAH
does you girfriend got the but
HELL YEAH
tell em to turn around, stick it out, even white boys gotta shout
baby got back




yup best song ever wink.gif

For the record, Commie, I've been listening to that song and My Sweet Prince a LOT lately. Especially once you posted that. It just got in me head and could not be shaken.

i have so many favourite Lyrics it's ridiculous. One of my favs is....

You think that i go home at night take off my clothes turn off the light but i burn letters that i write to you to make you love me
Yea i jog naked through the park and run the stop sign in the dark stand in the street yell in the street yell out my heart yell out to make you love me
I am ExtraOrdinary if you'd ever get to know me
I am Extraordinary if i'm just your ordinary Average every day sane psycho, super goddess, Average every day sane psycho, super goddess.
You may not believe in me but i believe in you so i still take out the trash does that make me to normal for you? So dig a little deeper 'cause you still don't get it yet. See me licking my lips in a primative fix and i'll make, i'll make you love me.
I am extraordinary if you'd ever get to know me i am extraordinary i'm just your ordinary Average every day sane psycho, super goddess, Average every day sane psycho, super goddess.

See me jumping hoops for you
you stand there watching me performing
What exactly do you do?
HAve you ever thought it's you thats boring?
Who the helk are you?

I am extraordinary if you'd ever get to know. I am just oyur ordinary Average every day sane psycho, Super goddess. Average every day sane psycho, super goddess. Average everyday sane psycho.

Currently this is my favourite song...

Its my life
Bon Jovi

This ain't a song for the broken-hearted
No silent prayer for the faith-departed
I ain't gonna be just a face in the crowd
You're gonna hear my voice
When I shout it out loud

Chorus:
It's my life
It's now or never
I ain't gonna live forever
I just want to live while I'm alive
(It's my life)
My heart is like an open highway
Like Frankie said
I did it my way
I just wanna live while I'm alive
It's my life

This is for the ones who stood their ground
For Tommy and Gina who never backed down
Tomorrow's getting harder make no mistake
Luck ain't even lucky
Got to make your own breaks

Chorus:
It's my life
And it's now or never
I ain't gonna live forever
I just want to live while I'm alive
(It's my life)
My heart is like an open highway
Like Frankie said
I did it my way
I just want to live while I'm alive
'Cause it's my life

Better stand tall when they're calling you out
Don't bend, don't break, baby, don't back down

Chorus:
It's my life
And it's now or never
'Cause I ain't gonna live forever
I just want to live while I'm alive
(It's my life)
My heart is like an open highway
Like Frankie said
I did it my way
I just want to live while I'm alive

Chorus:
It's my life
And it's now or never
'Cause I ain't gonna live forever
I just want to live while I'm alive
(It's my life)
My heart is like an open highway
Like Frankie said
I did it my way
I just want to live while I'm alive
'Cause it's my life!

Say It Isn't So Lyrics
I just can't believe
It was all a lie
No man in the moon
Just a big light in the sky
I hear Disneyland
Might lose Mickey Mouse
In some giant hostile corporate shake-up
Tell me it's a nightmare
Please wake me up
(Say it isn't so)
I found a book of matches
From someplace we've never been
How come you hang the phone up
The minute I walk in
Last night I had this dream
That I was losing you
I woke up in a cold sweat shaking
Rescue me my heart is breaking

Say it isn't so (tell me it's not true)
Say it isn't so (I believe in you)
Tell me it's a lie (I don't need no proof)
Say everything's all right (couldn't be, not you)
Say it isn't so

Superman don't fly
They did it all with strings
Elvis Presley died
They deep fried the king
Like some tacky cheesy bathing beauty
Dancing on the beach in a bad b-movie

Say it isn't so (tell me it's not true)
Say it isn't so (I believe in you)
Tell me it's a lie (I don't need no proof)
Say everything's all right (couldn't be, not you)

Say it isn't so (don't give up on me)
Say it isn't so (don't give up on you)
Get me through the night (we'll make it through)
Make everything all right (couldn't be, not you)
Say it isn't so...

Say it isn't so (tell me it's not true)
Say it isn't so (I believe in you)
Tell me it's a lie (I don't need no proof)
Say everything's all right (couldn't be, not you)

Say it isn't so (don't give up on me)
Say it isn't so (don't give up on you)
Get me through the night (we'll make it through)
Make everything all right (couldn't be, not you)
Say it isn't so

Bon Jovi are one of my guilty pleasures. Ever seen them live? They're great live, they played It's My Life.

yikes! bon jovi fans..... uh oh, they all hate me...



everclear, you make me feel like a whore


your word like it was gospal
I'm so eager to please
Yeh I like it when
You talk to me

It feels so good
Inside you shadow;
It's the place I need to be
Yeh you know
I need to climb you like a tree

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

weezer, say it aint so

i cant confrony you
i never could do
that which might hurt you
so try and be cool
when i say;
this way is a waterslide away from me that takes you further everyday
so be cool

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

they might be giants, ana ng


Make a hole with a gun perpendicular
To the name of this town in a desk-top globe
Exit wound in a foreign nation
Showing the home of the one this was written for
My apartment looks upside down from there
Water spirals the wrong way out the sink
And her voice is a backwards record
It's llike a whirlpool, it never ends

CHORUS
Ana Ng and I are getting old
And we still haven't walked in the glow of each other's majestic presence
Listen Ana hear my words
They're the ones you would think I would say if there was a me for you

All alone at the '64 World's Fair
Eighty dolls yelling "Small girl after all"
Who was at the Dupont Pavilion
Why was the bench still warm? Who had been there?
Or the time when the storm tangled up the wires
To the horn on the pole at the bus depot
And in the back of the edge of hearing
these are the words the voice was repeating:

CHORUS

when I was driving once I saw this painted on a bridge:
"I don't want the world, I just want your half"

They don't need me here, and I know you're there
Where the world goes by like the humid air
And it sticks like a broken record
Everything sticks until it goes away
And the truth is, we don't know anything

================================

mighty long post, aye?

heres a song that describes my situation to a tee; its called "i give up", and its by Quasi.

They say "hold on to your dreams"
that plays good on tv, but never worked for me.
so now i need to find a way to occupy my time.
until the day i die cuz i give up.
its gone so wrong so long, its gone so wrong.
so long: i give up.


i also find that alot of Sleater Kinny's lyrics are inpiring, and alot of Peal Jam's also hit home.

Well, apart from the lyrics to any AFI song since (and including) 'Black Sails At Sunset', I'd have to say a current favourite is Thursday's 'How Long Is The Night'. I can't be bothered to transcribe the whole thing, or find a site with the lyrics to C&P, but heres a little snippet to keep you happy:

I'm falling down, I'm falling down
And you're not here to catch my fall
I shut my eyes when you're around
I hold my breath to kill the sound

Oh so many lyrics that I relate to! There's 'With paper wings' by Sky Came Falling:

I'm afraid that I'm coming apart with each day's passing. I lost the air holding your hand burning up time breathing. My wrists so saddened by dull razorblades. And how brave I was staring into the sun wishing my heart was that strong. So don't say that it's all gone because there are many days I swore I lost. My wrists so saddened by dull razorblades. You'll pull through this. I wake, I try, with paper wings I fly. And I am clenching faith again, falling to my knees again. And for the first time in my life, I thought that maybe I'd be right. I'm afraid I am coming apart with each day's passing. Punching holes in the clouds, words gave way when whispers shatter the air. Sewing words together, to make them all fit right.

'Strawberry Gashes' by Jack off Jill:

Turn her over
A candle is lit, I see through her
Blow it out and save all her ashes for me
Curse me sold her
The poison that runs it's course through her
Pale white skin with strawberry gashes all over all over
Watch me fault her
You're living like a disaster
She said kill me faster
With strawberry gashes all over
Called her over
And asked her if she was improving
She said "feels fine" it's wonderful wonderful here
Hex me told her
I dreamt of a devil that knew her
Pale white skin with strawberry gashes all over all over
Watch me fault her
You're living like a disaster
She said kill me faster
With strawberry gashes all over
I lay quiet
Waiting for her voice to say
"Some things you lose and some things you just give away"
Scold me failed her
If only I'd held on tighter to her
Pale white skin that twisted and withered away from me away from me
Watch me lose her
It's almost like losing myself
Give her my soul
And let them take somebody else get away from me
Watch me fault her
You're living like a disaster
She said kill me faster
With strawberry gashes all over all over me

'Iris' by Goo Goo Dolls:

And I'd give up forever to touch you
'Cause I know that you feel me somehow
You're the closest to heaven that I'll ever be
And I don't want to go home right now
And all I can taste is this moment
And all I can breathe is your life
'Cause sooner or later it's over
I just don't want to miss you tonight
And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am
And you can't fight the tears that ain't coming
Or the moment of truth in your lies
When everything feels like the movies
And you bleed just to know you're alive
And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am
And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am
And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am

And 'Plainsong' by The Cure:

"i think it's dark and it looks like rain" you said
"and the wind is blowing like it's the end of the
world" you said "and it's so cold it's like the
cold if you were dead" and then you smiled for
a second.
"i think i'm old and i'm in pain" you said
"and it's all running out like it's the end of the
world" you said "and it's so cold it's like the
cold if you were dead" and then you smiled for
a second
sometimes you make me feel like i'm living at
the edge of the world like i'm living at the edge
of the world "it's just the way i smile" you said

to name but a few!!

Shoplifting

Put the cheddar in your pocket,
put the rest under your jacket,
I'll talk to the cashier,
he won't suspect
and if he does...

Do a runner, do a runner

Ten quid for the lot,
we pay f..... all
Mr. Packy won't lose much,
and we'll have dinner tonight.

Do a runner, do a runner

The bastard is trying to watch us,
through the mirror and TV
but they are not gonna catch us
because we are gonna run, run...

Do a runner, do a runner

Ten quid for the lot,
we pay f..... all
Mr. Packy won't lose much,
and we'll have dinner tonight.


This is by The Slits, who were around in the late seventies. think thes lyrics are so funny! laugh.gif

ironic - Alanis Morissette

An old man turned ninety-eight
He won the lottery and died the next day
It's a black fly in your chardonnay
It's a death row pardon two minutes too late
Isn't it ironic... don't you think
It's like rain on your wedding day
It's a free ride when you've already paid
It's the good advice that you just didn't take
Who would've thought... it figures
Mr. Play It Safe was afraid to fly
He packed his suitcase and kissed his kids good-bye
He waited his whole damn life to take that flight
And as the plane crashed down he thought
Well, isn't this nice
And Isn't this ironic ... don't you think?
It's like rain on your wedding day
It's a free ride when you've already paid
It's the good advice that you just didn't take
Who would've thought... it figures
Well life has a funny way of sneaking up on you
When you think everything's oka and everythings going right
And life has a funny way of helping you out when
You think evertyhing's gone wrong and everthing blows up
In your face
A traffic jam when you're already late
A no-smoking sign on your cigarette break
It's like 10,000 spoons when all you need is a knife
It's meeting the man of my dreams
And then meeting his beautiful wife
And isn't it ironic... don't you think
A little too ironic.. and yeah I really do think...
It's like rain on your wedding day
It's a free ride when you've already paid
It's the good advice that you just didn't take
Who would've thought... it figures
Well life has a funny way of sneaking up on you
And life has a funny way of helping you out
Helping you out




i always sing this song, like ALL the time. i never really liked it till this girl at out school sang it at our talent contest. she got a record deal recently too happy.gif she was really good.

EDIT the only thing i actually dont like about the lyrics is the fact she says it would be ironic if it rained on your wedding day, which i dont think id ironic at all cause i love the rain so it wouldnt ruin the happyest day of my life.

Has to be 'CKY - Close Yet Far' for me:

who said that I wasn't right?
I've lived for years without a life
don't have a soul on my side
still ridiculed despite how hard that I have tried
don't take me under your wing
I don't need a hand, don't need anything
I've got a roof over my head
as if I'd rather be alone with me instead

close yet far
drop me a line and tell me how the hell you are
and I'll tip my hat to those who can't believe it's me
and I never never never ever wanted this to be

I can hear the sounds of the city
sunrise and set are the same to me
a hesitating pulse is good company
and my reflection offers no apology
but who said that I wasn't right?
and I've lived for years without a life
don't have a soul on my side
still ridiculed despite how hard that I have tried

close yet far
drop me a line and tell me how the hell you are
and I'll tip my hat to those who can't believe it's me
and I never never never ever wanted this to be

close yet far
drop me a line and tell me how the hell you are
and I'll think of the days when there was something to believe
and I never never never ever wanted this to be.


--------------------
And when I vest my flashing sword,
And my hand takes hold in judgment
I will take vengeance upon mine enemies
And I will repay those who hase me.
O Lord, raise me to Thy right hand,
And count me among Thy Saints.

Inkubus Sukkubus - The Rape of Maude Bowen

Lying in the brook she's naked
Cold and dead, raped and broken
Sweet Maude Bowen victim of a man
By her side does lie her rapist
Her mother's brother, cold as she is
An avenging angel's arrow in his heart
And the squire he does blame her
With his lies he does shame her
Sweet Maude Bowen shamed a suicide

At the cross-roads they impale her
With the elm they claim to save her
Save her soul from Satan's evil lair
Maude's sweet mother weeps in madness
At the tree, at the crossroads
The tree that grows from sweet Maude Bowen's heart
The squire's men do taunt and tease her
Drag her off the grave and jeer her
Then one more dies with an arrow in his heart

Up before the judge at Gloucester
Acused a witch now they will burn her
At the tree at the cross-roads will she die
Tied to the elm the faggots smoking
Maude's sweet mother crying, choking
Mother, daughter, victims of a man
And the squre he stands there laughing
With his men he's laughing, joking

Then he is dead with an arrow in his heart

i had a friend who died
for something he really loved
i had a friend who stood
for none of the above
i had a friend whose experience
was riddled with scars
who got drunk one night
in the trunk of louie p.'s car
i had a friend who'd love to scare you
as was his affection
and tremble you did
'cause you weren't worthy of his friendship
i had a friend, but now
he's stranded on the mesa street exit
and sometimes i'm jealous
'cause i'm still at the intersection
i had a friend whose heart was too heavy to hold
yes there's blood on the median
like a boat without oars

duct tape the cross on the brown colored box
single file line on the unpaved road
they tipped their hats, respect for the dead
in juarez, mexico is where they buried my friend

there are no words to express
the loss i feel since you've been away
you made this typical sad song
a physical classroom
where i learned nothing
just flashes of your face

it's all a facade and nothing really matters now
he's stranded somewhere on the mesa street exit
and sometimes i'm jealous waiting at the intersection

i had a friend whose heart was too heavy to hold
yes there's blood on the median like a boat without oars

it's all a facade, and nothing really matters now

''embroglio'' at the drive in


every sick, fickle fucker
childhood's what makes ya
till they treat ya like tundra
weigh those opinions
more like air than lead
every planned occupation
surefire disappointment up ahead
till they treat ya like desert
see mirages of friendship, face turns red
here's the soon to be anchor
build bridges to nothing, you'll get nowhere
every governor's mother knows
that their bread is buttered by sam
and what about science?
they find proof and let you make your own decisions
every childstar wonders
if they have a future up ahead
every kindhearted banker
i don't think there is one
every winning opinion
stand on platforms in water
filling jars full of silence you'll get nowhere

''tundra/desert'' modest mouse



you were right im hangin round because
light and sound wont seperate us from them
you were right im underground becuase
slight of hand can't seperate your body from the dirt your standing on today
you're the good things yeah thats you.....
you're the icing on the cake on the table at my wake
you're the flowers in my house when my allergies come out
you're the extra ton of cash on my sinking life raft
you're the loud sound of fun when im trying to sleep

''you're the good things (it's alright to die)'' modest mouse



we're in a great deal of trouble
for just a wee bit of fun.
upon kissing the princess
she turned into a stun gun.
the young ones wait in the feilds,
hoping that their detroit will heal.

it's amazing how sentimental they get
when they realize
we're taking it away.
god knows who build rome today.

seating ceaser in the mezzanine,
his cloak is soaked in methylene blue-
plate special in the red light district.

i went from post-modern protoge
to post modern passe.
wretched from the get go
passion's so retro.
big spenders stand down,
the fashion of forgo has taken the town.

we're in a great deal of trouble
for just a we bit of fun.
upon taking to the skies
we burnt up in the sun.

the standards at the office have been
changed;
a sneaky pack has been arranged.
if you prefer insurance to the plague
then take it out. put it away
born in a bang in a house up in flames.
the dead snake system remains.

if youve heard the song before, you might be able understand.


THE STROKES LYRICS

"Trying Your Luck"

You said you couldn't stay
You've seen it all before, I know
And sold you on their way
Oh honey that's ok

No harm, he's armed
Settin' off all your alarms
When I find out
I hope it's you who set this trap

And stuffers rarely change
At least I'm on my own again instead of
Anywhere with you
Oh tell me it's all the same

And I've lost my place again
I know this is surreal
But I'll try my luck with you
This life is on my side
Oh I am your one
Believe me, this is a chance
Oh, oh

Let's see what is for sale
He's trying not to give his job a chance
It's never gonna be
It's sad, but I agree
The signals don't seem right
It lasts for just one night, and then
I'm sorry that I said
That we were just good friends

No harm, he's armed
Set it off all your alarms
Entranced, I can't
Be here in time I'll think about that

And I've lost my page again

Die Laughing: In Chimera's shadow

How can I agree to this conspiracy of silence?
Knowing that soon you will fall from my arms
Beyond the fear of losing you
I know I cannot save you.
All plans laid and promises made.
There's nothing I can do.

How can I dream
When no dreams is real
Truth's bittersweet kiss is all I feel,
In Chimera's shadow,

These days my emotions change from
Laughter to tears like rain.
I can't remember yesterday,
when nothing will remain the same.
Yet within you shines a strength
This curse can never darken.
I would give my soul to take away this pain

How can I dream.
When no dream is real
Truth's bittersweet kiss is all I feel
In chimera's shadow.

Looking in from the outside,
Behind precious eyes hide,
The knowledge of all things yet to come
Who will catch me when you fall?
Who will know to search when I'm lost?

There is no mercy here.

How can I dream
When no dreams is real
Truth's bittersweet kiss is all I feel,
In chimera's shadow.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Three Days Grace:Everything about you

Every time we lie awake
After every hit we take
Every feeling that I get
But I haven't missed you yet
Every room I get awake
Every sigh and scream we make
All the feelings that I get
But I still don't miss you yet

Only when I start to think about it...
I hate everything about you
Why do I love you
I hate everything about you
Why do I love you
Every time I lie awake
After every hit we take
Every feeling that I get
But I haven't missed you yet
Only when I start to think about it...
I hate everything about you
Why do I love you
I hate everything about you
Why do I love you
Only when I start to think about you I know
Only when you start to think about me do you know
I hate everything about you
Why do I love you
You hate everything about me
Why do you love me
I hate
You hate
I hate
You love me
I hate everything about you
Why do I love you
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The white stripes: seven nation army

I'm gonna fight 'em off
A seven nation army couldn't hold me back
They're gonna rip it off
Taking their time right behind my back
And I'm talkin' to myself at night
Because I can't forget
Back and forth through my mind
Behind a cigarette

And the message comin' from my eyes says leave it alone...

Don't wanna hear about it
Every single one's got a story to tell
Everyone knows about it
From the Queen of England to the Hounds of Hell
And if I catch you comin' back my way
I'm gonna serve it to you!
And that ain't what you want to hear
But that's what I'll do

And the feeling coming from my bones says find a home...!

I'm going to Wichita
Far from this opera forevermore
I'm gonna work the straw
Make the sweat drip out of every pore
And I'm bleeding, and I'm bleeding, and I'm bleeding
Right before the Lord
All the words are gonna bleed from me
And I will think no more

And the stains comin' from my blood tell me "Go back home"...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Like a stone...

On a cold wet
afternoon
in a room full of emptiness
by a freeway
I confess I was lost in the pages
of a book
full of death
reading how we'll die alone
and if a god will lay to rest
anywhere we want to go
in your house
I long to be
room by room
patiently
I'll wait for you there
like a stone
I'll wait for you there
alone

And on my death bed
I will pray
to the gods and the angels
like a pagan
to anyone who will take me to heaven
to a place
I recall
I was there so long ago
the sky was bruised
the ground was bled
and there you led me on

In your house
I long to be
room by room
patiently
I'll wait for you there
like a stone
I'll wait for you there
alone
alone

And on I read
untill the day was gone
and I sat in regret
of all the things I've done
for all that I've blessed
and all that I've wronged
in dreams till my death
I will wonder on

In your house
I long to be
room by room
patiently
I'll wait for you there
like a stone
I'll wait for you there
alone
alone

oh and who could forget these lyrics?

Baby you look at me
And tell me what you see
You ain't seen the best of me yet
Give me time I'll make you forget the rest
I got more then you
And you can set it free
I can catch the moon in my hand

Don't you know who I am
Remember my name
Fame
I'm gonna live for ever
I'm gonna learn how to fly
I feel it coming together
People will see me and cry
I'm gonna make it to heaven
Light up the sky like a flame
I'm gonna live forever
Baby remember my name

Baby you hold me tight
Cause you can make it right
You can shoot me stright to the top
Give me love and take all I got

Baby I'll return
To much is not enough
I can ride your heart till it breaks
Oh I got what it takes

Fame
I'm gonna live for ever
I'm gonna learn how to fly
I feel it coming together
People will see me and cry
I'm gonna make it to heaven
Light up the sky like a flame
I'm gonna live forever
Baby remember my name

Fame
I'm gonna make it to heaven
Light up the sky like a flame
I'm gonna live forever
Baby remember my name

Fame
I'm gonna live for ever
I'm gonna learn how to fly
I feel it coming together
People will see me and cry
I'm gonna make it to heaven
Light up the sky like a flame
I'm gonna live forever
Baby remember my name

i really am posting too mcuh in here. heres a song that sums me up and stuff
I am
little bit of loneliness
a little bit of disregard
a handful of complaints
but i can't help the fact
that everyone can see these scars
i am
what i want you to want
what i want you to feel
but it's like
no matter what i do
i can't convince you
to just believe this is real
so i let go
watching you
turn your back like you always do
face away and pretend that i'm not
but i'll be here
cause you're all i got
i am
a little bit insecure
a little unconfident
cause you don't understand
i do what i can
but sometimes i don't make sense
i am
what you never want to say
but i've never had a doubt
it's like no matter what i do
i can't convince you
for once just to hear me out
so i let go
watching you
turn your back like you always do
face away and pretend that i'm not
but i'll be here
cause you're all i got

i can't feel
the way i did before
don't turn your back on me
i won't be ignored
time won't heal
this damage anymore
don't turn your back on me
i won't be ignored


no
hear me out now
you're gonna listen to me
like it or not
right now

The sun was born so it shall die
until all these shadows comfort me
I know in darkness I will find you
giving up inside like me
Each day shall end as it begins
and though you're far away from me
I know in darkness I will find you
giving up inside like me


-snippet from "Further" by VNV Nation...kind of another personal theme song of mine.

one night upon my motorcycle
through the desert sped
and smashed my body so bad
all my friends thought i was dead
my sister held me close and whispered to my bleeding head,
"you are the son of a motherf--ker"
one, two, three, four

i shook all night and held her hand
chocolate people well i'll be damned
land of plenty, land of fun
to find out i'm nimrod's son

oh bury me, far away please, bury me

ahhh
the joke has come upon me

in my motorcycle mirror i think about the life i've led
and how my soul's been aching all the holes where i have bled
my image spoke to me, yes to me and often said,
"you are the son of incestuous union"
one, two, three

now my head is clear
my luke hands washed
my daughter's pure
my son is whole

land of plenty, land of fun
to find out i'm nimrod's son

oh bury me, far away please, bury me

ahhh
ahhh
ahhh
the joke has come upon me

pixies - nimrod's son

hey, at least it wasn't the get up kids.
