Is that Henry Rollins?

No. It's from the movie The Breakfast Club. I know it's not lyrics from a song, but I just couldn't resist.

Dear diary, what a day it's been.
Dear diary, it's been just like a dream.
Woke up late. Wasn't where I should have been.
For goodness sake what's happening to me.
Write lightly, yours truly, dear diary.

It was cold outside my door.
So many people by the score.
Rushing around so senselessly.
They don't notice there's people like me.
Write lightly, yours truly, dear diary.

They don't know what they're playing.
They've no way of knowing what the game is.
Still they carry on doing what they can.
Outside me, yours truly, dear diary.

It's over. Will tomorrow be the same?
I know that they're really not to blame.
If they wern't so blind then surely they'd see.
There's a much better way for them to be.
Inside me, yours truly, dear diary.
...

Somebody exploded an H-bomb today.
But it wasn't anyone I knew.

I say to myself
"Self, why are you awake again? It's one a.m."
Standing with the fridge door wide open, staring
Such a sight, florescent light
The stars are bright
Might make a wish, if I believed in that but
As it is, I might watch TV
'Cause it's nice to see people more messed up than me
I say to myself, as I smile at the wall, let myself fall

It's gonna be all right, no matter what they say
It's gonna be a good day, just wait and see
It's gonna be alright, 'cause I'm alright with me
It's gonna be, it's gonna be, it's gotta be

I shiver, shut the door
Can't think standing here no more
I'm alone, my mind's racing, heart breaking
Can you be everything I need you to be?
Can you protect me like a daughter?
Can you love me like a father?
Can you drink me like water?
Say I'm like the desert, just way hotter

The point of it all
Is that if I should fall
Still you're name I'll call

It's gonna be all right, no matter what they say
It's gonna be a good day, just wait and see
It's gonna be alright, cause I'm alright with me
It's gonna be, it's gonna be

As long as we laugh outloud
Laugh like we're mad
'Cause this crazy, mixed up beauty is all that we have
Because what's love but an itch we can't scratch, a joke we can't catch?
But still we laugh

Get back in bed, turn off the TV
You say "I'll be alright, baby, just wait and see."

It's gonna be all right, it's gonna be alright
Gonna be a good day, just wait, just see
Gonna alright, 'cause I'm alright with me
It's gonna be, it's gonna be, it's gonna be.

it's so easy for me to slag bruce these days but in the end this is probably one of the best songs ever written. i know ev thinks so.



We busted out of class had to get away from those fools
We learned more from a three minute record than we ever learned in school
Tonight I hear the neighborhood drummer sound
I can feel my heart begin to pound
You say you're tired and you just want to close your eyes and follow your dreams
down

We made a promise we swore we'd always remember
No retreat no surrender
Like soldiers in the winter's night with a vow to defend
No retreat no surrender

Now young faces grow sad and old and hearts of fire grow cold
We swore blood brothers against the wind
I'm ready to grow young again
And hear your sister's voice calling us home across the open yards
Well maybe we could cut someplace of our own
With these drums and these guitars

Blood brothers in the stormy night with a vow to defend
No retreat no surrender

Now on the street tonight the lights grow dim
The walls of my room are closing in
There's a war outside still raging
you say it ain't ours anymore to win
I want to sleep beneath peaceful skies in my lover's bed
with a wide open country in my eyes

jack_bass_player

Oh Ive just come
From the land of the sun
From a war that must be won
In the name of truth
With our soldiers so brave
Your freedom we will save
With our rifles and grenades
And some help from god
I want to see my family
My wife and child waiting for me
Ive got to go home
Ive been so alone, you see

You just cant believe
The joy I did recieve
When I finally got my leave
And I was going home
Oh I flew through the sky
My convictions could not lie
For my country I would die
And I will see it soon
I want to see my family
My wife and child waiting for me
Ive got to go home
Ive been so alone, you see

When I walked through the door
My wife she lay upon the floor
And with tears her eyes were sore
I did not know why
Then I looked into her hand
And I saw the telegram
That said that I was a brave, brave man
But that I was dead
I want to see my family
My wife and child waiting for me
Ive got to go home
Ive been so alone, you see

My love for you is real

Honey now, my love for you is real



My love for you is wild
So cross your T's and dot you eyes
Well, who taught us how to feel
And say hello with long goodbyes



And it's wide
River long

Honey now, my love for you is real
My love for you is real
My love for you is real
My love for you is real
Yeah, it's real

I'm not doing great
I feel like I'm dead
Not thinking straight
Inside my body, troubled, full of hate
I had to let it out before it's too late

Deep Inside, It can hide!
Feeling so lost and betrayed
why does this happen to me everytime
Stuck in this place, where I can't escape
Screaming and clawing from deep inside

Why won't it fade
Outside I had to lie; "I'm ok",
I hope someday, I'll stop getting pain
I guess this is a lie, I have made

Deep Inside, It can hide!
Feeling so lost and betrayed
why does this happen to me everytime
Stuck in this place, where I can't escape
Screaming and clawing from deep inside

What am I doing?
I can't believe this
I have been hiding
Wanting to be less
Giving to people,
They take from me
Always they bring drama to me

Look, look at me now
NOWWWWWWWW

Feeling so lost and betrayed
why does this happen to me everytime
Stuck in this place, where I can't escape
Screaming and clawing from deep inside

I can't stand all this fucking Pain
Please god just go away
Please god just make the pain...

I said he-hi
I said hello
I said a-where'd you want this little
Song to go....

I started singing
Made up some words
I sang it like a sonnet
I sang it for the birds
I sang about the distance
I sang about the time
I introduced some chaos
And tried to make it rhyme

I hope somebody listened
And heard another world
Pure rays on the better worlds, they were
Catching a song
A song about the nights and
A song about a day
About a song about a modern day
We're a little too late

I said goodbye
I said hold on
Where did you want that little
Song to go....

I gave you all I had
I gave you good and bad
I gave but you just threw it back

I won't get on my knees
Don't make me do that please
I've been away but now I'm back

Don't be too sure of that
What makes you sure of that
You went away you can't come back

I walked away from you
I hurt you through and through
Aw honey give me one more chance

Aw you're a lucky son
Lucky son of a gun
You went away, you went away
You went away but now youre back

I got down on my knees
And then I begged you please
I always knew you'd take me back

Don't come to pieces in my hand
White stars reflecting dust and sand
That perfume makes me think of grief
Shake the faith shake the belief

Who's there to say that we're living this moment
Feels like I'm in a play
The sets and the props of this, your apartment
Seem to be fading away, fading away

So I wander through these rooms
I feel the orbit of the moons
And I dream what I've become
And all's forgotten by the sun

vmfury

When I come to the club, step aside
Pop the seats, don’t be heavy in the line
V.I.P., ‘cause you know I gotta shine
I’m Fergie Ferg, and I'll love you long time

All my girls get down on the floor
Back to back, drop it down real low
I’m such a lady, but I’m dancing like a ho
‘Cause you know what?
I don’t give a fuck, so here we go

How come every time you come around
My London, London bridge, wanna go down like
London, London, London
Wanna go down like
London, London, London, we goin’ down like

The drinks start pouring
And my speech starts slurring
Everybody starts looking real good

The Grey Goose got your girl feeling loose
Now I’m wishin’ that I didn’t wear these shoes
It’s like every time I get up on the dude
Paparazzi put my business in the news

And I’m like
"Get up out my face
Before I turn around and spray you with my mace
My lips make you wanna have a taste
You got that?"
I got the bass

How come every time you come around
My London, London bridge wanna go down like
London, London, London
Wanna go down like
London, London, London, we goin’ down like
London, London, London
Wanna go down like...

Don't know if it's been posted, but 1 song I've been heavily into lately... beautiful guitar playing......

Loco Girl - Chris Whitley

I found my loco girl again
All still, no word for where she'd been
I sense the memories on her skin
Like broken glass had broke her in
And I, in exile, recognize a friend.

These chains grow stronger every year
Will she defect or disappear
This world can hold her in its sway
Maybe she'll take me there someday
When I find my loco girl again
When I find my loco girl again

JDE-PJ

Well I've been up to Paris,
and I've slept in a park.
Went down to Barcelona,
someone broke in my car.
And I'll search the world over
for my angel in black.
Yeah, I'll search the world over
for a Euro-trash Girl.

Took the train down to Athens,
and I slept [live: sometimes "bathed"] in a fountain.
Some Swiss junkie in Turin [Earlier versions "Zurich" instead of "Turin"]
ripped me off for my cash.
Yeah, I'll search the world over
for my angel in black.
Yeah, search the world over
for a Eurotrash Girl.

The CRS on the metro
shook me down for a bribe.
On my knees for the sergeant
when my passport arrived.
Yeah, I'll search the world over
for my angel in black.
Yeah, I'll search the world over
for a Euro-trash Girl

Euro-trash Girl, Euro-trash girl.
Euro-trash Girl, Euro-trash girl.

Called my mom from a payphone
I said "I'm down to my last."
She said "I sent you to college...
now go call your dad."
And the waitress that he married,
well she hung up the phone.
You know she never did like me,
but I can stand on my own.

Sold my plasma in Amsterdam.
Spent it all in a night,
buying drinks at the Melk Weg
for a soldier in drag.
And I'll search the world over
for my angel in black.
Yeah, I'll search the world over
for a Eurotrash Girl

Euro-trash Girl, Euro-trash girl.
Euro-trash Girl, (I'm a) Euro-trash girl.

Yeah, I'll search the world over
for my angel in black.
Yeah, I'll search the world over
for a Eurotrash Girl (solo Johnny)

Got a tattoo in Berlin
(and a case of the crabs).
A rose and a dagger
on the palm of my hand.
And I'll search the world over
for my angel in black.
Yeah, I'll search the world over
for a Eurotrash Girl.

Euro-trash Girl, Euro-trash girl.
Euro-trash Girl, (I'm a) Euro-trash girl.

Yeah, I'll search the world over
for my angel in black.
Yeah, I'll search the world over
for a Eurotrash Girl.

Do you see the way that tree bends?
Does it inspire?
Leaning out to catch the sun's rays
A lesson to be applied
Are you getting something out of this all-encompassing trip?

You can spend your time alone, re-digesting past regrets, oh
Or you can come to terms and realize
You're the only one who can't forgive yourself, oh
Makes much more sense, to live in the present tense

Have you ideas on how this life ends?
Checked your hands and studied the lines
Have you the belief that the road ahead, ascends off into the light?
Seems that needlessly it's getting harder
To find an approach and a way to live
Are we getting something out of this all-encompassing trip?

You can spend your time alone re-digesting past regrets, oh
Or you can come to terms and realize
You're the only one who cannot forgive yourself, oh
Makes much more sense, to live in the present tense

You
You wake up late
Yet you're asleep
Inside a dream

Then
You feel something
Superimposed
Upon your thoughts

They say that in the future every man and woman will be a star
And everybody's shining and it's blinding and they don't see too far

You can't spend the whole song in space

Next
You move outside
You feel grey rain
Upon your skin

In
The muted hush
The raindrops crash
The seconds roar

They say we're all assembled from the tiny pieces of the red shift
The elevator's later but it's swifter to just wait for a lift

You can't spend the whole song in space

(Yeah!)

Life
The new frontier
An interlude
Eternity

You
You drink some wine
You had a smoke
You got to smile

They say that at the speed of light the particles all get quite excited
But out here in this universe it's bursting and we're all so delighted

You can't spend the whole song...
You can't spend the whole song in space

Took men TEN years to figure it out. Matthew Sweet couldn't have written more appropriate words if he were in my own head.

I thought I knew you
But I was in for a suprise
I let my love flow
From my heart into your eyes
And then I found out
That there was nothing
I could know
Or guess about you
You'd go as far as you could go
And it took me years to figure out
That there was nothing
I could give to you
Years to figure out
That there was nothing
You would take from me
And how can I describe
The way you slowly put
My hope away
And all of the time
I thought I knew you
I thought I knew you
But I wasn't even close
I had my heart set
On little more than a ghost
And I thought I'd show you
There was no way we could lose
I thought I'd force you
To realize and choose
And it took me years
To figure out
That there was nothing
I could show to you
Years to figure out
That you were never really
Going to choose
And how can I describe
The way I slowly lost
My love for you
And all of the time
I thought I knew you [solo]
And it took me years
To figure out
That there was nothing
I could show to you
Years to figure out
That you were never
Really going to choose
And how can I describe
The way I slowly lost
My love for you
And all of the time
I thought I knew you
