Everything is clicking, things are locking into place
It’s like clockwork and I’m stood sitting again, staring at your eyes, your eyes
I put my eye out come to see things half as well
I suppose it’s time to try and put my ear against a shell myself I’m not simple

You’re so sweet it tickles
Yeah

It’s all so clinical, clinical, so clinical, clinical

Peeling paint to understand why it’s falling off
Grab my hand and kiss it baby, try and call a stop
I put my eye out come to see things half as well
My clothes are finally dry and I place them on myself, myself I’m not sinful

You’re so sweet it tickles
Yeah

It’s all so clinical, it’s clinical, it’s all so clinical, clinical

All these things in my way
There are things in my way
All these things in my way
Things in my way

Let's go!
Everybody needs to start their own fire
Everybody needs a riot of their own
Everybody needs to be something that they are not
Everybody needs to go it alone

Because!
Living so free is a tragedy
When you can't be what you want to be
Living so free is a tragedy
When you can't see what you need to see

Okay!
All the time spent hanging on to anything
All the time spent knowing that they're wrong
All the time wasted, stolen back, innocent
You won't get a second more so move it along

Because!
Living so free is a tragedy
When you can't be what you want to be
Living so free is a tragedy
When you can't see what you need to see

Living so free is a tragedy
When you can't be what you want to be
Living so free is a tragedy
When you can't see what you need to see

Wishing and hoping and thinking it's you
That's got this all under control
Never a minute has passed you all by
When they haven? invaded your soul

It? not something you can hold
It? not something you own
It's not something you can buy or steal
You've got it when you're alone

Being free is a tragedy
When you don't know yourself
Being free is a tragedy
When you don't know who you are

Living so free is a tragedy
When you can't be what you want to be
Living so free is a tragedy
When you can't see what you need to see

Living so free is a tragedy
When you can't be what you want to be
Living so free is a tragedy
When you can't see what you need to see

Let's go!
Hey, hey, hey!
Alright then
This is the story of your life man

It's growing clear that the americans are trigger happy]

I've spent twenty years learning to live
In a world that takes back all that it gives
But I do not want a war

'Cause I'm not in for killing another man
Defending my holy land
As if there's a god who would understand

Feeding the promised land
With your blood by my own hand
At Allah's own command
At Allah's own command

I've spent twenty years learning to live
In a world that takes back all that it gives
But I do not want a war

I don't know what's going on
In the scenes behind
I worry about it some of the time
And I hope there's not a war

'Cause I'm not in for killing another man
Defending my holy land
As if there's a god who would understand

And I would walk across highways
To find my fate
If that might settle your crude debate
But I do not want a war

'Cause I'm not in for killing another man
Defending my holy land
As if there's a god who would understand

Feeding the promised land
With your blood by my own hand
At allah's own command
At allah's own command

I came up from the desert and here I will die
Tooth for tooth and an eye for an eye
Though I didn't want a war

I went in for killing another man
Defending my holy land
As if there's a god who would understand
As if there's a god who would understand
I went in for killing another man
Defending my holy land
As if there's a god who would understand
As if there's a god who would understand
Oh yeah...

(Matthew Sweet)

look in the eyes
of the face of love
look in her eyes
oh, there is peace
no, nothing dies
within pure light
only one hour
of this pure love
to last a life
of twenty-seven years
only one hour
so come and go

Here are some lyrics from Zakk Wylde's "Book of Shadows."

~Peddlers of Death~

Come, Take My Hand
Let Us Walk For A While
Your burden of pain
Replaced with a smile
Never So Far, Only So Close
As you melt in your false cradle below

Chorus:
For The Peddlers Of Death
Always Come Calling One More Time
Bearing promises of feeling fine

Chorus repeat

So called friends
are running loose
Draining you whole
'Til you're of no use
Letting go of things you need most
Son,
Early Wish
Early grave
Early ghost

Chorus repeat 4x

Father stop
Criticizing your son
Mother please
Leave your daughters alone
Don't you see that's what wrong
With the world, with this world today
Everybody wants somebody
To be their own piece of clay
Everybody wants somebody
To be their own piece of clay

We all talked about kindness
But it's only only a word
Brother turned on a sister
In this cruel cruel world today
That's what's wrong
With all in this world today
Everybody wants somebody
To be their own piece of clay
Everybody wants somebody
To be their own piece of clay
Somebody to play with
Wanna to mold you, mold you
Shaker your love baby
Wanna to do their thing

Children are told
To give not just to take
If we were all children
You know the world
Will be a better place
Everybody wants somebody
To be their own piece of clay
We should all love each other
Love and take one another
We should love each other
Love and not hate, oh

Everybody wants somebody
To be their own piece of clay
Everybody wants somebody
To be their own piece of clay
True everybody wants somebody
To mold them, shape them own way
Everybody wants somebody
Try to make it
Or do their, do their thing
Everybody wants take somebody
Got to make it do their thing
Everybody wants somebody
To be their own piece of clay

God money, I'll do anything for you
God money, just tell me what you want me to
God money, nail me up against the wall
God money, don't want everything, he wants it all

God money, not looking for the cure.
God money, not concerned with the sick among the pure
God money, let's go dancing on the backs of the bruised
God money, not one to choose

Hey, hey
Just one more and I'll walk away.
All the everything you win
Turns to nothing today.
And I forget how to move
When my mouth is this dry,
And my eyes are bursting hearts
In a blood-stained sky.

Oh, it was sweet,
It was wild
And oh, how we...
I trembled,
Stuck in honey.
Honey
Cling to me...
So, just one more.
Just one more go.
Inspire in me the desire in me
To never go home.

Oh, just one more and i'll walk away.
All the everything you win
Turns to nothing today.
So, just one more.
Just one more go.
Inspire in me the desire in me
To never go home.

Son?
Yeah Dad?
How's your day, Pal?
Great Dad! How's yours?
Super! Say Son, how'd you like to go fishing this week-end?
Great Dad. But I've got homework to do.
Well that's OK son. You can do it on the boat.

Dear, isn't our son swell?
Yes Dear. Isn't life swell?

And the river opens for the righteous
Someday

I was walking with my brother
And he wondered what's on my mind
I said what I believe in my soul
Ain't what I see with my eyes
And we can't turn our backs this time
I am a patriot
And I love my country
Because my country is all I know
I want to be with my family
The people who understand me
Ive got nowhere else to go

And the river opens for the righteous

And I was talking with my sister
She looked so fine
I said baby, what's on your mind
She said I want to run like the lion
Released from the cages
Released from the rages
Burning in my heart tonight

And I ain't no communist and I ain't no capitalist
And I ain't no socialist and I ain't no imperialist
And I ain't no democrat and I ain't no republican
I only know one party and it is freedom
I am, I am, I am
I am a patriot
And I love my country
Because my country is all I know

And the river opens for the righteous
Someday

......from The Breakfast Club eh? great movie. cuts right through the bs. here's another line---when they're all talking about their parents and Ally Sheedy's character says, "but that's what happens when you grow up--your heart dies". I always thought of it as the child in them dying. --or the reality of life tearing away your hopes and dreams?

Light in Your Eyes--Sheryl Crowe


Something's happenin'
cause everything's different,
but everything is fine, yeah

Cause this is the good stuff
and yesterday is only what you leave behind
it's only in your mind

Chorus:
You gotta talk to the one who made you
talk to the one who understands
talk to the one who gave you
all that light in your eyes
all that light in your eyes

There's no use pretendin'
you (or it) never existed
til you saw the light, yeah

Cause you're just beginning
you haven't missed it
it's only in you,
and you know what to do

Chorus:
You gotta talk to the one who made you
talk to the one who understands
talk to the one who gave you
all that light in your eyes
all that light in your eyes

If the world wasn't the way she is now
you'd be mysterious
she's got more use
and give it to me

When nobody's happy
that's not the world outside
where everybody hides

Chorus:
You gotta talk to the one who made you
talk to the one who understands
talk to the one who gave you
all that light in your eyes
all that light in your eyes

You gotta talk to the one who made you
talk to the one who understands
talk to the one who gave you
all that light in your eyes
all that light in your eyes

Yeah, thank you, thank you
yeah, everything will stop
yeah, thank you, thank you
for the light in your eyes

yeah, thank you, thank you
yeah, everything will stop
yeah, thank you, thank you,
for the light in your eyes
for the light in your eyes

Sheryl Crowe--I Shall Believe (heard a remake of it by a Christian rock band on radio the other day)


Come to me now
And lay your hands over me
Even if it's a lie
Say it will be alright
And I shall believe
I'm broken in two
And I know you're on to me
That I only come home
When I'm so all alone
But I do believe

That not everything is gonna be the way
You think it ought to be
It seems like every time I try to make it right
It all comes down on me
Please say honestly you won't give up on me
And I shall believe
And I shall believe

Open the door
And show me your face tonight
I know it's true
No one heals me like you
And you hold the key

Never again
would I turn away from you
I'm so heavy tonight
But your love is alright
And I do believe

That not everything is gonna be the way
You think it ought to be
It seems like every time I try to make it right
It all comes down on me
Please say honestly
You won't give up on me
And I shall believe
I shall believe
And I shall believe

Rebecca St. James--You Are Loved (Christian rock)

We were younger then, you and me, full of dreams, weren’t we?
I went my way, you went yours, where did you go, dear?
Someone said you had left the life we lived together then
This is my way of reaching out ‘cause I remember…

This is what I want to say to you
If I had one chance to speak to your heart
You are loved
More than you could ever know
This is what I want to say to you
If I had one chance to tell you something
You are loved
More than you can imagine
Imagine

If I told you would you believe, the narrow road, I did not leave
If I told you would you understand that I’ve found truth
Are you jaded? Are you hurting now? How I wish that I could tell
Where your heart’s at…can you see? Mine has found – home

Not sure if I’ve, made it clear enough
It’s not my love I sing about
Everybody asks, “Is God good?”
I believe, He is
In fact I know, He is

....................................

for me, all the songs are about God...and an example of how Christian rock has come a long way...with influences from all around

chiquimonkey

Words are flowing out like endless rain into a paper cup,
They slither while they pass, they slip away across the universe
Pools of sorrow, waves of joy are drifting through my open mind,
Possessing and caressing me.
Jai guru de va om
Nothing's gonna change my world,
Nothing's gonna change my world.

Images of broken light which dance before me like a million eyes,
That call me on and on across the universe,
Thoughts meander like a restless wind inside a letter box they
Tumble blindly as they make their way
Across the universe
Jai guru de va om
Nothing's gonna change my world,
Nothing's gonna change my world.

Sounds of laughter shades of earth are ringing
Through my open views inviting and inciting me
Limitless undying love which shines around me like a
million suns, it calls me on and on
Across the universe
Jai guru de va om
Nothing's gonna change my world,
Nothing's gonna change my world.

Doris Day--Que Sera Sera
~~~~~~~~~~~~

When I was just a little girl
I asked my mother, what will I be
Will I be pretty, will I be rich
Here's what she said to me.

Que Sera, Sera,
Whatever will be, will be
The future's not ours, to see
Que Sera, Sera
What will be, will be.

When I was young, I fell in love
I asked my sweetheart what lies ahead
Will we have rainbows, day after day
Here's what my sweetheart said.

Que Sera, Sera,
Whatever will be, will be
The future's not ours, to see
Que Sera, Sera
What will be, will be.

Now I have children of my own
They ask their mother, what will I be
Will I be handsome, will I be rich
I tell them tenderly.

Que Sera, Sera,
Whatever will be, will be
The future's not ours, to see
Que Sera, Sera
What will be, will be.

Break me down
You got a lovely face
We're going to your place
And now you got to freak me out
Scream so loud, getting f'n laid
You want me to stay, but I got to make my way

Hey!
You're a crazy bitch
But you f*** so good, I'm on top of it
When I dream, I'm doing you all night
Scratches all down my back to keep me right on

Hey!
You're a crazy bitch
But you f*** so good, I'm on top of it
When I dream, I'm doing you all night
Scratches all down my back to keep me right on

Take it all
The paper is your game
You jump in bed with fame
Another one night paid in full, uh
You're so fine, it won't be a loss
Cashing in the rocks, just to get you face to face

Hey!
You're a crazy bitch
But you f*** so good, I'm on top of it
When I dream, I'm doing you all night
Scratches all down my back to keep me right on

Hey!
You're a crazy bitch
But you f*** so good, I'm on top of it
When I dream, I'm doing you all night
Scratches all down my back to keep me right on

Get the video
F*** you so good

Crazy bitch

You want it all
To be a star
You'll have to go down
Take it off
No need to talk
You're crazy
But I like the way you do me

Hey!
You're a crazy bitch
But you f*** so good, I'm on top of it
When I dream, I'm doing you all night
Scratches all down my back to keep me right on

You're crazy
But I like the way you do me.

VALENTINE (3:31)

Well you wish upon a star that turns into a plane
And I guess that's right on par
Who's left to blame?

If you were a pill
I'd take a handful at my will
And I'd knock you back with something sweet and strong
Plenty of times you wake up in February make-up
Like the moon and the morning star you're gone

(chorus:)

Tonight makes love to all your kind
Tomorrow's makin' Valentines

Hey you pop up in this old place
So sick and so refined (divine?)
Are you strung out on some face?
Well I know it ain't mine

If you were a pill, I'd take a handful at my will,
And I'd knock you back with something sweet and strong
Trouble keeping your head up when you're hungry and you're fed up,
Like a moon and a lone star you're gone

(chorus)

If you were a pill, I'd take a handful at my will,
And I'd knock you back with something sweet as wine
Yesterday was theirs to say, this is their world and their time
Well if tonight belongs to you, tomorrow's mine

(chorus)

Being Enlightened

One 'n one is eleven!
Two 'n two is twenty-two!
Won't somebody kindly tell me,
What's the government is tryin' t' do...
Dickie's just to tricky
For a chump like me to use
You take that sub-committee seriously, boy
You could get a seizure from the evenin' news

Millions 'n millions of dollars...
Much as he might need...
He could open up a chain of motels, people
On the highway, yes indeed!

Quadrafonic desperation!
Just might be some confinement loaf all up under your bed
If you just might pinch a little loaf in your slumber
The FBI gonna get your number
THE FBI
GONNA GET YOUR NUMBER
THE FBI
GONNA GET YOUR NUMBER
etc.

Tryin' not to worry
Tryin' not to care
But you know, I get delighted
When that soup goes over there

Can't have no private conversation
Nowhere
In the USA
Can't wait 'til the rest of the people all over the the world
Find out their government
Is just the same ol' way
Every day...

The gangster stepped right up,
'N kissed him on the lips good-bye
Made him a cocksucker by proxy, yes he did,
An' he didn't even bat an eye!

The man in the White House -- oooh!
He's got a conscience black as sin!
There's just one thing I wanna know --
How'd that asshole ever manage to get in?

This could be destiny
Oh, sweetheart
I've had no sense of time
Since we started
I got friends in need
Oh, sweetheart
I'd go lengths and lengths and lengths of love
Since we started this thing now

Combat salacious removal
Combat salacious removal

There is a bitter breed
Oh, sweetheart
They will be watching you sometimes
With their bitter hearts

But we went through with these
Oh, we're shifting the heartache
We want strong summer love that must roam washed up blood
Just to stay away

Combat salacious removal
Combat salacious removal

Combat salacious removal.

We, in our present life
Knew that the stars were right
That if you are the first to go
You'll leave a sign to let me know
Tell me so
Please, carry the Lantern light

You crossed the sea of night
Free from the spell of fright
Your cloak it is a spirit shroud
You'll wake me in my sleeping hours
Like a cloud
So, please, carry the Lantern high

Me, in my sorry plight
You waiting ev'ry night
My face, it turns a deathly pale
You're talking to me, through your veil
I hear you wail
So, please carry the Lantern high

The servants sleep
The door's are barred
You hear the stopping of my heart - we never part
So, please carry the Lantern high
