ScreamingLemur

The last time I saw Richard was Detroit in '68
And he told me all romantics meet the same fate,
someday cynical and drunk and boring someone in some dark cafe
You laugh, he said you think you're immune, go look at your eyes
They're full of moon
You like roses and kisses and pretty men to tell you all those pretty lies
When you gonna realize they're only pretty lies? Only pretty lies
Just pretty lies

He put a quarter in the Wurlitzer, and he pushed three buttons and the thing
began to whirr
And a bar maid came by in fishnet stockings and a bowtie
And she said drink up now it's gettin on time to close
I said Richard you haven't really changed any, it's just that now you're romanticizing some pain that's in your head
You've got tombs in your eyes, but the songs you punched are dreaming
Listen, they sing of love so sweet
Love so sweet, when you gonna get yourself back on your feet?
Oh, love can be so sweet, love so sweet

Richard got married to a figure skater, and he bought her a dishwasher and a coffee percolator
And he drinks at home most nights with the TV on and all the house lights left up bright
I'm gonna blow this damn candle out, I don't want nobody comin over to my table, I got nothin to talk to anyone about
All good dreamers pass this way some day
Hidin' behind bottles in dark cafes
Dark cafes, Only a dark cocoon before i get my gorgeous wings and fly away
Only a phase, these dark cafe days

Valmara valmara valmara flechettes
Kiss me with the lisp
Of your shrapnel caress
Lost this arm, lost this leg
Lost this diving board
Just a belly flopped proposal
Of let's be friends

Tour de force
Defacto
Ayuchuco
Tour de force

Prosthetic, prosthetic, prosthetic blemish
Necro is the velcro on the charred appendage
Carterize solder gun in the melting of seeds
Oh dear god what a tangled web we weave

Tour de force
Defacto
Ayuchuco
Tour de force

All we are are failed attempts
Propelled by stilt-leg presidents
Incarcerate the mason fence
Like flechettes flechettes flechettes
I'm not biting the lead my pencil's broken again
We will fill in the blanks
Or I can cheat off your test
Flechettes flechettes

I came down, was thrown on the ground
Searching for smiles, getting frowns
Wanting musical highs like Messian & Miles
But all I was getting was downs
Give me some’Colour, give me some’Bone,
Give me relief or leave me alone
Give me some Boots’, give me some’Brains
Got nothing to lose and all to gain

I’ve been subject to a certain suspect
Who played like they hate what they said that they liked
I won’t sublet or pretend to beget
A shackled down music that’s nothing but hype
All I want to show you is a smile in a wave

Next thing to dark blue is deep purple haze
I just want to show you a vision of the Sun
So glad to know you,’cause you’re second to none

Meet me on the other side
Meet me on the other side
I'll see you on the other side
See you on the other side

Honey now if I'm honest
I still don't know what love is
Another mirage folds
into the haze of time recalled
And now the floodgates cannot hold
All my sorrow, all my rage
A teardrop falls on every page

Meet me on the other side
Meet me on the other side

Maybe I oughta mention
Was never my intention
To harm you or your kin
Are you so scared to look within
The ghosts are crawling on our skin
We may race, and we may run
We'll not undo what has been done
Or change the moment when it's gone

Meet me on the other side
Meet me on the other side
I'll see you on the other side
I'll see you on the other side

I know it would be outrageous
To come on all courageous
And offer you my hand
To pull you up on to dry land
When all I got is sinking sand
The trick ain't worth the time it buys
I'm sick of hearing my own lies
And love's a raven when it flies

Meet me on the other side
Meet me on the other side
I'll see you on the other side
See you on the other side

Honey now if I'm honest
I still don't know what love is...

I saw your myspace, cried ridiculously, and created one of my own (the link's on my profile in here). "Logan" how beautiful!! I know we're not "supposed" to talk so- Uh Oh, Is "the Man" watching me? hahaha.There's so much to say and so much left unsaid- but we Know...Here's one for You, and the one you posted was well, you know...

I know you think that I shouldn't still love you,
Or tell you that.
But if I didn't say it, well I'd still have felt it
Where's the sense in that?

I promise I'm not trying to make your life harder
Or return to where we were

But I will go down with this ship
And I won't put my hands up and surrender
There will be no white flag above my door
I'm in love and always will be

I know I left to much mess and
destruction to come back again
And I caused nothing but trouble
I understand if you can't talk to me again
And if you live by the rules of "its over"
Then I'm sure that that makes sense

But I will go down with this ship
And I wont put my hands up and surrender
There will be no white flag above my door
I'm in love and always will be

And when we meet
Which I'm sure we will
All that was there
Will be there still
I'll let it pass
And hold my tounge
And you will think
That I've moved on....

but I will go down with this ship
And I won't put my hands up and surrender
There will be no white flag above my door
I'm in love and always will be

I will go down with this ship
And I won't put my hands up and surrender
There will be no white flag above my door
I'm in love and always will be

I will go down with this ship
And I won't put my hands up and surrender
There will be no white flag above my door
I'm in love and always will be

Sarah McLachlan...

Fumbling Towards Ecstasy:



All the fear has left me now
I'm not frightened anymore.
It's my heart that pounds beneath my flesh.
it's my mouth that pushes out this breath

and if I shed a tear I won't cage it.
I won't fear love
and if I feel a rage I won't deny it.
I won't fear love.

Companion to our demons
they will dance and we will play.
With chairs candles and clothes
making darkness in the day.
It will be easy to look in or out
upstream or down
without a thought

and if I shed a tear I won't cage it.
I won't fear love
and if I feel a rage I won't deny it.
I won't fear love.

Peace in the struggle to find peace.
Comfort on the way to comfort

and if I shed a tear I won't cage it.
I won't fear love
and if I feel a rage I won't deny it
I won't fear love.
I won't fear love.
I won't fear love...

Oh, well imagine, as I'm pacing the pews in a church corridor,
and I can't help but to hear, no I can't help but to hear an exchanging of words:
"What a beautiful wedding! What a beautiful wedding!" says a bridesmaid to a waiter.
"And yes, but what a shame, what a shame, the poor groom's bride is a whore."

I'd chime in with a:
"Haven't you people ever heard of closing a goddamn door?!"
No, it's much better to face these kinds of things
With a sense of poise and rationality.
I'd chime in, "Haven't you people ever heard of closing a goddamn door?!"
No, it's much better to face these kinds of things with a sense of...

Well in fact, well I'll look at it this way
I mean technically our marriage is saved
Well this calls for a toast, so pour the champagne
Oh! Well in fact, well I'll look at it this way
I mean technically our marriage is saved
Well this calls for a toast, so pour the champagne, pour the champagne

I'd chime in with a:
"Haven't you people ever heard of closing a goddamn door?!"
No, it's much better to face these kinds of things
With a sense of poise and rationality
I'd chime in, "Haven't you people ever heard of closing a goddamn door?!"
No, it's much better to face these kinds of things
With a sense of poise and rationality

Again...

I'd chime in, "Haven't you people ever heard of closing a goddamn door?!"
No, it's much better to face these kinds of things
With a sense of poise and rationality
I'd chime in, "Haven't you people ever heard of closing a goddamn door?!"
No, it's much better to face these kinds of things
With a sense of poise and rationality.

Again...

As I look at what I've done
The type of life that I've lived
How many things I pray the father will forgive
One situation involved a young man
He was the ocean and I was the sand
He stole my heart like a thief in the night
Dulled my senses blurred my sight

I used to love him but now I don't
I used to love him but now I don't

I chose a road of passion and pain
Sacrificed too much and waited in vain
Gave up my power ceased being queen
Addicted to love like the drug of a fiend

Torn and confused wasted and used
Reached the crossroad which path would I choose
Stuck and frustrated I waited, debated
For something to happen that just wasn't fated
Thought what I wanted was something I needed
When momma said no I just should have heeded
Misled I bled till the poison was gone
And out of the darkness arrived the sweet dawn

I used to love him but now I don't
I used to love him but now I don't

Father you saved me and showed me that life
Was much more than being some foolish man's wife
Showed me that love was respect and devotion
Greater than planets deeper than oceans
My soul was weary but now it's replenished
Content because that part of my life is finished

I see him sometimes and the look in his eye
Is one of a man who's lost treasures untold
But my heart is gold I took back my soul
And totally let my creator control
The life which was his to begin with

I used to love him but now I don't
Lboogie!(jerzy style)

wow....who wrote that?

Pink Bullets
The Shins

I was just bony hands as cold as a winter pole
You held a warm stone out new flowing blood to hold
Oh what a contrast you were
To the brutes in the halls
My timid young fingers held a decent animal.

Over the ramparts you tossed
The scent of your skin and some foreign flowers
Tied to a brick
Sweet as a song
The years have been short but the days were long.

Cool of a temperate breeze from dark skies to wet grass
We fell in a field it seems now a thousand summers passed
When our kite lines first crossed
We tied them into knots
And to finally fly apart
We had to cut them off.

Since then it's been a book you read in reverse
So you understand less as the pages turn
Or a movie so crass
And awkardly cast
That even I could be the star.

I don't look back as much as a rule
And all this way before murder was cool
But your memory is here and I'd like it to stay
Warm light on a winter day.

Over the ramparts you tossed
The scent of your skin and some foreign flowers
Tied to a brick
Sweet as a song
The years have been short but the days go slowly by
Two loose kites falling from the sky
Drawn to the ground and an end to flight.

Opelousas (Sweet Relief)

She's cruisin' the streets
Making damn sure she don't run into that old man
Around him she hardly even speaks
She slips into an old retreat

I saw her struttin' in a dress
That was lucky last week
Keeping an eye out for Shady
He's holding something sweet
Some sweet relief

Some find it in a bathtub or a back rub
The clothes they wear or just in the air
In the food they eat, it's something sweet
Some sweet relief

Now Opelousas is a dim-lit town by night
But the people down there
They sure know how to live
Why, they dance by the moon
They give a party for a fight
They got that look in their eyes, says
They're holding something sweet
Some sweet relief

It's in a handshake or a lucky break
In a bottle of wine or just losing some time
It's in the road you meet, oh
It's something sweet
Some sweet relief

Now you tell me you got some
I hope that's true
But you want some assurance
You'll never be blue
Well...

It's in a boat ride
On the holy side
It's at the 5 & 10
It's everywhere you ever been
It's in the very words you speak
It's something sweet
Sweet relief
Sweet

Spineless

I won't see my dear friends as much
Male friends especially, I'll no longer be in touch
I'll change my hobbies to match yours
I'll stop reading my favorite books
I won't spend all this selfish time alone
I'll cater to you and hang on your every word

I'll be subservient and spineless
I'll lick your boots as empty shells
I'll be opinion less and silent
I'll be the prettiest appendage to ever lose herself

I'll re-define self-sacrifice
Live my life as apologetic compromise
I KNOW YOU'D LEAVE if I rock the boat

I'll be subservient and spineless
I'll lick your boots as empty shells
I'll be opinion less and silent
I'll be the prettiest appendage to ever lose herself

I feel this, truly proclaimed will help the curbing of this tendency
I know this sharing of shame will ensure that I won't forget myself so easily

I'll be low maintenance and agreeable
I will not talk about my dreams so much
I'll listen to you for hours, won't need anything

I'll be subservient and spineless
I'll lick your boots as empty shells
I'll be opinion less and silent
I'll be the prettiest appendage to ever lose herself

I'll be subservient and spineless
I'll lick your boots as empty shells
I'll be opinion less and silent
I'll be the prettiest appendage to ever lose herself

I feel this, truly proclaimed will help the curbing of this tendency
I know this sharing of shame will ensure that I won't forget myself so easily

This Year's Love:

This years love had better last
Heaven knows it's high time
And I've been waiting on my own too long
But when you hold me like you do
It feels so right
I start to forget
How my heart gets torn
When that hurt gets thrown
Feeling like you can't go on

Turning circles when time again
It cuts like a knife oh yeah
If you love me got to know for sure
'Cause it takes something more this time
Than sweet sweet lies
Before I open up my arms and fall
Losing all control
Every dream inside my soul
And when you kiss me
On that midnight street
Sweep me off my feet
Singing ain't this life so sweet

This years love had better last
This years love had better last

So whose to worry
If our hearts get torn
When that hurt gets thrown
Don't you know this life goes on
And won't you kiss me
On that midnight street
Sweep me off my feet
Singing ain't this life so sweet

This years love had better last
This years love had better last
This years love had better last
This years love had better last
