    It's all a state of mind.'

    Such a moving song!

    I'm Still Alive.


    Of course this is with no doubt one of the best PJ lyrics, and nobody here but you brought it up, good for you! You really feel PJ soul.

    Floated back down cause he wanted to share this key to the locks, on the chains, he saw everywhere.
    But first he was stripped, and then he was stabbed, by faceless men.
    Well fuckers, he still stands.

    Sure is...and don't we all? I can't believe that's the 1st time that's been posted, but I'll take your word for it :)
    The song is SO much better with 20,000+ "helping" Ed sing it though IMO.
    cheers.

    I agree. As much as I love the newer stuff, sometimes I think Ten gets forgotten. It's not cliche to love that album, and it's still great. Maybe a little raw, but always good.

  • >> new york streets seem to make it worse
    >> all this noise inside the quiet

    i read someplace that cities are places where people are alone together, and these two lines from other side evoke that thought perfectly for me...

    >>hold on to the thread
    the currents will shift
    glide me towards...
    you know something's left
    and we're all allowed
    to dream of the next
    of the next time we touch...
    you don't have to stray
    the oceans away
    waves roll in my thoughts
    hold tight the ring...
    the sea will rise...
    please stand by the shore...
    i will be... i will be there once more...

    this is one of my favorite songs... the imagery... girl looking at the sea (a girl because i myself am one, and i identify myself with the song), wind in her hair... high atop a sand dune looking at the waves crashing...

    >>i don't question, our existence
    i just question, our modern needs

    >> lying sideways atop crumpled sheets and no covers
    he decides to dream... dream up a new self for himself
  • Where do I go?
    Where do I stay?
    I got no place to lay on the hay...
    Where do I go to soothe my head?
    Guess I'll turn on music instead.
    Where do I see?
    Where do I shine?
    No one wants to take my mind...
    Where do I go?
    How do I feel?
    Guess I'll waste away in here...
    Out of my mind...

  • i'll decide...take the dive...
    take my time...not my life...
    wait for signs...believe in lies...
    to get by...it's divine

    That song gives me goosepimples

  • Clearly i remember, pickin' on the boy.
    Seemed a harmless little fuck.
    oooOOO but he unleashed the lion.
    knashed his teeth and bit the recess ladies breast,
    how could i forget.
    and he hit me with a suprize left, my jaw left hurtin,ooo dropped right open.
    just like the dAAay.

    I love this as i was one of theses kids that soaks up all this anger and and aggression from people and one day just lets go coz they have had enough of the shit.
    Fuck me if i say somthing you dont want to hear,
    Fuck me if you only hear whats in your head.
    Fuck me if you can, coz im not leaving here.

    Me, I figure, as each day goes by, I only own my mind. I am mine.

    Father didn't pay attention and the boy was something that mommy wouldn't wear.

    I would rather starve than eat your bread.... can't buy what I want because it's free.

    And, of course, my signature line.

    A wonderful thread, I really love all the lyrics you have pointed to!
    ... and the will to show I will always be better than before.

    i gather speed from you fucking with me
    once and for all i'm far away
    i hardly believe, finally the shades...are raised...
    saw things so much clearer
    once you, once you...
