    Here is another good Bob line:

    "This morning I woke up in a curfew
    oh God, I was a prisoner too - yeah
    could not recognize the faces standing over me
    they were all dressed in uniforms of brutality"

    and i listen....for the voice inside my head....Nothing! I'll do this one myself.

    if you are the big tree...we are the small axe...sharpened to cut you down.

    silly monkeys give them thumbs they forge a blade and where there's one they're bound to divide...right in two.

    hail, hail the lucky ones I refer to those in love...

    made it to the river had a smoke on a cliff....

    Rise. Life is in motion. I'm stuck in line.
    Rise. You can't be neutral on a moving train.

    so many more....

    I want to taste dirty, stinging pistol
    In my mouth, on my tongue
    I want you to scrape me from the walls
    And go crazy like you've made me


    how sad

    that radiohead line is one of my favourites
    ...can´t wear my mask, your first my last...
  • 'walks on his own, with thoughts he can't help thinking, future's above, but in the past he's slow and sinking. caught a bolt of lightening, cursed the day he let it go,..'

    indifference, the whole thing
    as with wishlist.

    i always loved faithful 'just be darlin' and i will be too, faithful to you'

    and the person who used parachutes :)

    'theres a light when my baby's in my arms..and i know she's reached my heart in thin air'

    'into your room i stumble now, im too tired to cower and its too late to draw you out.. and there you lie like a painting of christ, bleeding on the heads of the ones who nailed you down'

    'you call me a dog, well that's fair enough, cuz it aint no use to pretend you're wrong..'

    four walled world 'well she cries and she cries all night to the sound of the freeway hum, she swears she'll be gone when the sun hits the ground and she aint coming back to my cell'

    'wake up young man, its time to wake up, blue clouded grey, you're not a crack up..for a little peace from god you plead and beg'

    all of nutshell, i cant watch unplugged version these days, too sad.

    'did you call for the night porter? smell the blood running warm, i stay close to this frozen border, so close i could hit it with a stone'

    'day end of day, each hanging spiral, where is the shore and its clear blue silence? all of those heavens that you day dream, remembering the sun and the deep green ivy'

    'yes its fucking political, everythings political'

    'why dont you weep when i hurt you?'

    'just because you feel good it doesnt make you right'

    'cameras got them images, cameras got them all, nothings shocking'

    'at this moment you should be with us'

    "took a drive today

And it was...I think the name's open to interpretation...even though the real story is the fact that my great grandma was married to an indian chief and... Actually I don't know if he was a chief... Yeah, actually he was demoted. He was a chief for a while and then... When he moved into like white society, he was no longer ordained...but they also...like the ultimate combining of their cultures was the fact that like my great grandma made this jam that was passed down for generations but then she added his end of it by adding, like peyote and hallucenogenics and it was this kind of hallucenogenic jam..."-EV

    ohh man i got a TON but here are a few:

    "she holds the hand that holds her down, she will rise above"

    "like a cloud dropping rain i'm discarding all thought. i'll dry up leaving puddles on the ground. i'm like an opening band for the sun..."

    "i wish i was the verb 'to trust' and never let you down"

    "never shook satan's hand look, see for yourself. you'd know it if i had, that shit don't come off"

    "i will hold the candle till it burns up my arm, i'll keep taking punches until their will grows tired, oh i will stare the sun down until my eyes go blind, hey i won't change direction, and i won't change my mind"

    "let the ocean swell, dissolve away my past"

    "don't see some men as half empty, see them half full of shit"

    "you've got time to escape...it's no crime to escape...there's still time so escapse"

    "i pledge my grievance to the flag, cause you don't give blood then take it back again"


    there's a million more but that's all i can think of now =P

    A wave came CRASHING like a fist to the jaw....Delivered him wings, HEY look at me now........

    This is great, I really need to look at the lyrics more. Usually I just listen, and daydream, without clearly hearing the lyrics.
    Hmmn, time for another trip to theskyiscrape.
