Opeth - Ghost Reveries - Baying of the Hounds
I hear the baying of the hounds In the distance, I hear them devouring Pest ridden jackals of the earth Diabolical beasts and roaming the forests In wait and constant protectors Calling you to sit by his side Your self loathing image in his flesh A revelation upon which you linger His words are flies Swarming towards the true insects Feasting on buried dreams And spreading decay upon your skin His eyes spew forth a darkness That cut through and paralyze Casts light upon your secrets Forced to confront your enemies His mouth is a vortex Sucking you into it's pandemonium Fools you with a helping hand of ashes Reached out in false dismay His body is a country The cities lay dead and beyond despair Friends turned enemies unable to come clean In a rising fog of reeking death Everything you believed is a lie Everyone you loved is a death burden So you take comfort in him And you are receptive to stark wishes No longer struggling to declare your stand You would inflict no harm to others They are unaware of you And in a loop of futile events You are everything, they are nothing Drown in the deep mire With past desires Beneath the mire Drown desire now with you Lined up verses on dead skin "The tainted lips of the stranger Resting upon hers" And I embrace bereavement Everything beloved is shattered anyway I would devote myself to anyone I would accept any flaws I am too weak to resist Tension vibrating with horror Finding the outcast in my eyes Pushing nerves on a puppet Endless poison in my veins Clean intent now tainted with death And so, cold touch now inhumane Every waking hour Awaiting a reverie to unfold And now they are calling me Louder by the minute The baying of the hounds Calling me back to my home |

PROCLAIMERS - SUNSHINE ON LEITH
~for dana~ My heart was broken, my heart was broken Sorrow sorrow sorrow sorrow My heart was broken, my heart was broken You saw it, you claimed it You touched it, you saved it My tears are drying, my tears are drying Thankyou thankyou thankyou thankyou My tears are drying, my tears are drying Your beauty and kindness Made tears clear my blindness While I'm worth my room on this earth I will be with you While the chief, puts sunshine on leith I'll thank him for his work And your birth and my birth. |

The Smiths - Pretty Girls Make Graves
Upon the sand, upon the bay "There is a quick and easy way" you say Before you illustrate I'd rather state : "I'm not the man you think I am I'm not the man you think I am" And Sorrow's native son He will not smile for anyone And Pretty Girls Make Graves Oh ... End of the pier, end of the bay You tug my arm, and say : "Give in to lust, Give up to lust, oh heaven knows we'll Soon be dust ... " Oh, I'm not the man you think I am I'm not the man you think I am And Sorrow's native son He will not rise for anyone And Pretty Girls Make Graves Oh really ? Oh ... I could have been wild and I could have Been free But Nature played this trick on me She wants it Now And she will not wait But she's too rough And I'm too delicate Then, on the sand Another man, he takes her hand A smile lights up her stupid face (and well, it would) I lost my faith in Womanhood I lost my faith in Womanhood I lost my faith ... Oh ... |

Plowed
Will I wake up some dream I made up No I guess it's reality What will chance us or will we mess up our only chance to connect with a dream Say a prayer for me Say a prayer for me Say a prayer for me I'm buried by the sound Of a world of human wreckage In a world of human wreckage In a world of human wreckage Where i'm lost and I'm found and I can't touch the ground I'm plowed into the sound To see wide open with a head that's broken Hang a life on a tragedy Plow me under the ground that covers the message that is the seed Say a prayer for me Say a prayer for me Say a prayer for me I'm buried by the sound Of a world of human wreckage In a world of human wreckage In a world of human wreckage Where i'm lost and I'm found and I can't touch the ground I'm plowed into the sound Will I wake up some dream I made up No I guess it's reality |

American Idiot
Don't wanna be an American idiot. Don't want a nation under the new mania And can you hear the sound of hysteria? The subliminal mind **** America. Welcome to a new kind of tension. All across the alienation Where everything isn't meant to be okay. Television dreams of tomorrow. We're not the ones meant to follow For that's enough to argue. Well maybe I'm the faggot America. I'm not a part of a redneck agenda. Now everybody do the propaganda. And sing along to the age of paranoia Welcome to a new kind of tension. All across the alienation. Where everything isn't meant to be okay. Television dreams of tomorrow. We're not the ones meant to follow. For that's enough to argue. Don't wanna be an American idiot. One nation controlled by the media. Information age of hysteria. It's going out to Idiot America Welcome to a new kind of tension. All across the alienation. Where everything isn't meant to be okay. Television dreams of tomorrow. We're not the ones meant to follow. For that's enough to argue. |

"Bob"
He spent fifteen years getting loaded Fifteen years 'till his liver exploded Now what's Bob gonna do now that he can't drink? The doctor said, "What you been thinkin' 'bout?" Bob said, "That's the point, I won't think about nothing Now I gotta do something else," OI OI OI! "To pass the time." Bob shaved his head He got a new identity Sixty-two holed air cushioned boots And a girl who rides a scooter Gonna take him out, of town They would get away Riding around, as the trucks drive by You could here the mother ****ers go... A couple of lines, an extra thermos of Joe He'll be kickin' in heads at the punk rock show, yeah Bob's the kinda guy who knows just what Bob's the kinda guy who knows just what to do When the doctor tells him to "Quit your drinkin', now's the time." Will he ever walk the line To all my friends, I feel just great But will he ever walk the line Kickin' ass and bustin' heads Red suspenders Once a day he shaves his head But will he ever walk the line? Will he ever walk the line? Will he ever walk the line? Will he ever walk the line? Oh will he ever walk the line? |

"The Bag"
Endless evenings of non-exist Are getting shorter, monotonous Like an intruder, I belong outside Although I find myself right back The same place I was before Saying things I'd say once more There's no reason for me to be here, no I feel so lonesome, surrounded by friends Who are talking about me, saying things I could care less about This dialogue is without Worth, content, significance Conversational ambivalence Hear the same things every night, it just ain't right I'm not the one to hold the bag Give me something I can sink my teeth into Show me a time, tell me a story That I haven't heard a million times before I pass out from boredom As I watch the people pass I see moments in their lives, nothing fascinating Are we all living for the past, never realizing We're clinging to an empty bag Lacking content, significance Conversational ambivalence Say the same thing every night, it just ain't right We'll see who's left holding the bag |

I woke up early this morning around 4am
With the moon shining bright as headlights on the interstate I pulled the covers over my head and tried to catch some sleep But thoughts of us kept keeping me awake Ever since you found yourself in someone else's arms I've been tryin' my best to get along But that's OK There's nothing left to say, but Take your records, take your freedom Take your memories I don't need'em Take your space and take your reasons But you'll think of me And take your cap and leave my sweater 'Cause we have nothing left to weather In fact I'll feel a whole lot better But you'll think of me, you'll think of me I went out driving trying to clear my head I tried to sweep out all the ruins that my emotions left I guess I'm feeling just a little tired of this And all the baggage that seems to still exist It seems the only blessing I have left to my name Is not knowing what we could have been What we should have been So Take your records, take your freedom Take your memories I don't need'em Take your space and take your reasons But you'll think of me And take your cap and leave my sweater 'Cause we have nothing left to weather In fact I'll feel a whole lot better But you'll think of me Someday I'm gonna run across your mind Don't worry, I'll be fine I'm gonna be alright While you're sleeping with your pride Wishing I could hold you tight I'll be over you And on with my life So take your records, take your freedom Take your memories I don't need'em And take your cap and leave my sweater 'Cause we have nothing left to weather In fact I'll feel a whole lot better But you'll think of me So take your records, take your freedom Take your memories I don't need'em Take your space and all your reasons But you'll think of me And take your cap and leave my sweater 'Cause we got nothing left to weather In fact I'll feel a whole lot better But you'll think of me, you'll think of me, yeah And you're gonna think of me Oh someday baby, someday |

Air Supply - Making Love Out of Nothing
I know just how to whisper And I know just how to cry I know just where I find the answers And I know just how to lie I know just how to fake it And I know just how to scheme I know just when to face the truth And then I know just when to dream And I know just where I touch you And I know just what to prove I know when to pull you closer And I know when to let you loose And I know the night is fading And I know the time’s gonna fly And I’m never gonna tell you everything I gotta tell you But I know I’ve got to give it a try And I know the roads to riches And I know the ways to pain I know all the rules and then I know how to break’em And then I always know the name of the game But I don’t know how to leave you And I’ll never let you fall And I don’t know how you do it Making love out of nothing at all Making love Out of nothing at all Making love Out of nothing at all Making love Out of nothing at all Making love Out of nothing at all Making love Out of nothing at all Making love Out of nothing at all Everytime I see you, well the rays of the sun are all Streaming through the waves in your hair And every star in the sky is taking aim at your eyes Like a spotlight The beating of my heart is a drum and it’s lost And it’s looking for a rhythm like you You can take the darkness from the deep of the night And turn it to a beacon burning endlessly bright I gotta follow it ‘cause everything I know Well, it’s nothing ‘till I give it to you I can make the runner stumble I can make the final block And I can make every tackle at the sound of the whistle And I can make all the stadiums rock I can make tonight forever Or I can make it disappear by the dawn And I can make you every promise that’s ever been made And I can make all your demons be gone But I’m never gonna make it without you Do you really wanna see me crawl ? And I’m never gonna make it like you do Making love out of nothing at all Making love Out of nothing at all... |

No, woman, no cry;
No, woman, no cry; No, woman, no cry; No, woman, no cry. Said - said - said: I remember when we used to sit In the government yard in Trenchtown, Oba - obaserving the 'ypocrites As they would mingle with the good people we meet. Good friends we have, oh, good friends we've lost Along the way. In this great future, you can't forget your past; So dry your tears, I seh. No, woman, no cry; No, woman, no cry. 'Ere, little darlin', don't shed no tears: No, woman, no cry. the late, GREAT Bob Marley |

the gates of delirium-yes
stand and fight we do consider, reminded of an inner pact between us thats seen as we go. and ride there in motion to fields in debts of honor defending. stand the marchers soaring talons peaceful lives will not deliver freedom, fighting we know, destroy oppression, the point to reaction as leaders look to you attacking. choose and renounce, throwing chains to the floor. kill or be killing faster sins correct the flow. casting giant shadows off vast penetrating force to alter via the war that seen as friction spans the spirits wrath ascending to redeem. wars that shout in screams of anguish, power spent passion bespoils our soul receiver, surely we know in glory we rise to offer, create our freedom, a word we utter a word. words cause our banner, victorious our day. will silence be promised as violence display. the curse increased we fight the power and live by it by day. our gods awake in thunderous roars and guide the leader's hand in paths of glory to the cause. listen, should we fight forever, knowing as we do fear destroys? listen, should we leave our children? listen, our lives stare in silence; help us now. listen, your friends have been broken, they tell us of your poison; now we know. kill them, give them as they give us. slay them, burn their children's laughter on to hell. the first will run, grasp metal to gun. the spirit sings in crashing tones, we gain the battle drum. our cries will shrill, the air will moan and crash into the dawn. the pen won't stay the demon's wings, the hour approaches poubding out the devil's sermon. soon, oh soon the light, pass within and soothe this endless night and wait here for you our reason to be here soon, oh soon the time, all we move to gain will reach and calm; our heart is open, our reason to be here. long ago, set into rhyme. soon, oh soon the light, ours to shape for all time, ours the right; the sun will lead us, our reason to be here. soon, oh soon the light, ours to shape for all time, ours the right; the sun will lead us, our reason to be here. |

GARBAGE - THE WORLD IS NOT ENOUGH
I know how to hurt I know how to heal I know what to show And what to conceal I know when to talk And I know when to touch No one ever died From wanting too much The world is not enough But it is such a perfect place to start My love And if you're strong enough Together we can take the world apart My love People like us Know how to survive There's no point in living If you can't feel alive We know when to kiss And we know when to kill If we can't have it all Then nobody will The world is not enough But it is such a perfect place to start My love And if you're strong enough Together we can take the world apart My love I, I feel safe I, I feel scared I, I feel ready And yet unprepared The world is not enough But it is such a perfect place to start My love And if you're strong enough Together we can take the world apart My love The world is not enough The world is not enough No, nowhere near enough The world is not enough |
