Don't cry to me.
If you loved me,
You would be here with me.
You want me,
Come find me.
Make up your mind.
Should I let you fall?
Lose it all?
So maybe you can remember yourself.
Can't keep believing,
We're only deceiving ourselves .
And I'm sick of the lie,
And you're too late.
Don't cry to me.
If you loved me,
You would be here with me.
You want me,
Come find me.
Make up your mind.
Couldn't take the blame.
Sick with shame.
Must be exhausting to lose your own game.
Selfishly hated,
No wonder you're jaded.
You can't play the victim this time,
And you're too late.
Don't cry to me.
If you loved me,
You would be here with me.
You want me,
Come find me.
Make up your mind.
You never call me when you're sober.
You only want it cause it's over,
It's over.
How could I have burned paradise?
How could I - you were never mine.
So don't cry to me.
If you loved me,
You would be here with me.
Don't lie to me,
Just get your things.
I've made up your mind.sometimes you're the boxer...sometimes you're the bag...0 -
When I'm with you
I shake inside
My heart's all tangled up
My tongue is tied
It's crazy
Can't walk, can't talk
Can't eat, can't sleep
Oh, I'm in love
Oh, I'm in deep
'Cause baby
With a kiss you can strip me defenseless
With a touch I completely lose control
'Til all that's left of my strength is a memory
I get weak when I look at you
Weak when we touch
I can't speak when I look in your eyes
I get weak when you're next to me
Weak from this love
I can't speak when I look in your eyes
I get weak
Convincing eyes, persuasive lips
The helpless heart just cant resist their power
You know you've got a hold over me
You know you've got me where I want to be
'Cause lover
Like a wave you keep pulling me under
How I'll ever get out of this, I dont know
I know there's just no way to fight it
I get weak when I look at you
Weak when we touch
I can't speak when I look in your eyes
I get weak when you're next to me
Weak from this love
I'm in deep when I look in your eyes
I get weak
I get weak
Just a kiss you can strip me defenseless
Just a touch I completely lose control
'Til all that's left of my strength is a memory
I get weak when I look at you
Weak when we touch
I can't speak when I look in your eyes
I get weak when you're next to me
Weak from this love
I can't speak when I look in your eyes
I get weak.We’ll meet again, but not yet…not yet.0 -
Out on a limb
Did you see what the cat dragged in
Take it on the chin
Catching fire on a roof of tin
You’ve learnt to speak and you’re professing
The right to teach us our direction
But I found out on close inspection
True imprefection
Chorus 1:
I’m looking for a new direction
Where in the world am i?
I took the word the word was resurrection
And then you took me out to climb
Chorus:
Higher and higher (x3)
Kissing the spires
Higher and higher (x3)
Souls on fire
Inside of my head
I heard what the good lord said
’beware’ he said
If you don’t you might end up dead
You suck the air right out of me
But though you suck you cannot see
That life and living are not free
Though you live you do not breathe
(chorus 1)
(chorus) ...
I have changed
But still my heart
Remains intact
And true love stays
But will our hearts
Retain their lack of
No sense and no direction
Who in the world am i?
I took the word the word was resurrection
And then you took me out to climb
(chorus...)
Start confessing (x2)
All my evils would be blessed
If to God I did confess
Wipe the slate and see if i
Ate the bread and drank the wine
So as you’re leaving I take possesion
Just take the bottle and start confessinglay down all thoughts; surrender to the void
~it is shining it is shining~0 -
In the light of the sun, is there anyone?
Oh it has begun
Oh dear you look so lost
Eyes are red and tears are shed
This world you must have crossed
You said...
You don't know me
You don't even care
She said...
You don't know me
You don't wear my chains
Essential yet appealed
Carry all your thoughts across an open field
When flowers gaze at you
They're not the only ones who cry
When they see you
You said...
You don't know me
You don't even care
She said...
You don't know me
You don't wear my chains
She said...
I think I'll go to Boston
I think I'll start a new life
I think I'll start it over
Where no one knows my name
I'll get out of California
I'm tired of the weather
I think I'll get a lover
And fly him out to Spain
I think I'll go to Boston
I think that I'm just tired
I think I need a new town
To leave this all behind
I think I need a sunrise
I'm tired of the sunset
I hear it's nice in the summer
Some snow would be nice
Boston
Where no one knows my name.We’ll meet again, but not yet…not yet.0 -
Peter Gabriel - Solsbury Hill
Climbing up on Solsbury Hill
I could see the city lights
Wind was blowing, time stood still
Eagle flew out of the night
He was something to observe
Came in close, I heard a voice
Standing, stretching every nerve
I had to listen had no choice
I did not believe the information
Just had to trust imagination
My heart going boom boom boom
Son, he said, grab your things I've come to take you home
To keep in silence I resigned
My friends would think I was a nut
Turning water into wine
Open doors would soon be shut
So I went from day to day
Though my life was in a rut
Till I thought of what I'd say
And which connection I should cut
I was feeling part of the scenery
I walked right out of the machinery
My heart going boom boom boom
Son, he said, grab your things I've come to take you home
yeaah, back home
When illusion spin her net
I'm never where I want to be
And liberty she pirouette
When I think that I am free
Watched by empty silhouettes
Who close their eyes but still can see
No one taught them etiquette
So I will show another me
Today I don't need a replacement
I'll tell them what the smile on my face meant
My heart going boom boom boom
Hey, I said, you can keep my things they've come to take me home0 -
RUNNING ON EMPTY
(by Jackson Browne)
Looking out at the road rushing under my wheels
Looking back at the years gone by like so many summer fields
In sixty-five I was seventeen and running up one-o-one
I don't know where I'm running now, I'm just running on
Running on - running on empty
Running on - running blind
Running on - running into the sun
But I'm running behind
Gotta do what you can just to keep your love alive
Trying not to confuse it with what you do to survive
In sixty-nine I was twenty-one and I called the road my own
I don't know when that road turned onto the road I'm on
Running on - running on empty
Running on - running blind
Running on - running into the sun
But I'm running behind
Everyone I know, everywhere I go
People need some reason to believe
I don't know about anyone but me
If it takes all night, that'll be all right
If I can get you to smile before I leave
Looking out at the road rushing under my wheels
I don't know how to tell you all just how crazy this life feels
I look around for the friends that I used to turn to to pull me through
Looking into their eyes I see them running too
Running on - running on empty
Running on - running blind
Running on - running into the sun
But I'm running behind
Honey you really tempt me
You know the way you look so kind
I'd love to stick around but I'm running behind
You know I don't even know what I'm hoping to find
Running into the sun but I'm running behind0 -
The chills that you
Spill up my back
Keep me filled with
Satisfaction when we're done
Satisfaction of what's to come
I couldn't ask for another
(I-I-I-I-I I)
No, I couldn't ask for another
Your groove I do deeply dig
No walls, only the bridge
My supperdish, my succotash wish
(Sing it baby)
I couldn't ask for another
(Uh-huh uh-huh)
(I-I-I-I-I I)
No, I couldn't ask for another
Groove is in the heart
Ah-ah-ah-ah
Groove is in the heart
Ah-ah-ah-ah
Groove is in the heart
Groove is in the heart
Ah-ah-ah
The depth the hula groove
Move us to the ninth hoop
We goin' through to Horten
Hears a who-ooh
I couldn't ask for another
(I-I-I-I-I I)
No, couldn't ask for another
He was on a roll
I've been told he can't be sold
He's not vicious or malicious
Just lovely and delicious
I couldn't ask for another
Groove is in the heart
Ah-ah-ah-ah
(Ne-na-na-na-na)
Groove is in the heart
(Ne-na-na-na-na)
Groove is in the heart
(Ne-na-na-na-na)
Groove is in the heart.We’ll meet again, but not yet…not yet.0 -
TURN MY HEAD
anyone, caught in your mystery
keep it angry
keep it whispy
I've fallen down
drunk on your juices
turn my head
turn my head
it's aimed at you
funky temple
your dress is torn to shreds
your eyes are crazy
i bowed to save my head,and
I can't forget you
but i cant remember
turn my head
turn my head
it's aimed at you
oh no
we came to love you all day
these bastards are leavin'
somebody's got to stay
whatever we called you
it's just a name
just a name....

You wait
Wanting this world to let you in
And you stand there
A frozen light
In dark and empty streets
You smile
Hiding behind a God given face
But I know you're so much more
Everything they ignore
Is all that I need to see
You're the only one I ever believed in
The answer that could never be found
The moment you decided to let love in
Now I'm banging on the door of an angel
The end of fear is where we begin
The moment we decided to let love in
I wish
Wishing for you to find your way
And I'll hold on for all you need
That's all we need to say
I'll take my chances
While you take your time
With this game you play
But I can't control your soul
You need to let me know
You leaving or you gonna stay
You're the only one I ever believed in
The answer that could never be found
The moment you decided to let love in
Now I'm banging on the door of an angel
The end of fear is where we begin
The moment we decided to let love in
There's nothing we can do about
The things we have to do without
The only way to feel again
Is to let love in.We’ll meet again, but not yet…not yet.0 -
well they closed down the auto plant in mah-wah late that month
ralph went out lookin' for a job, but he couldn't find none
he came home too drunk from mixing tanquerry and wine
he got a gun - shot a night clerk - now they call him johnny 99
down in the part of town where when you hit a red light you don't stop
johnny's wavin' his gun around, threatening to blow his top
when an off-duty cop snuck up on him from behind
out in front of the club tip-top they slapped the coughs on johnny 99
well the city supplied a public defender, but the judge was mean john brown
he went in to the court room, and stared poor johnny down
he said the evidence is clear, gonna let the sentance son fit the crime
prison for 98 and a year, we'll call it even johnny, 99
well a fist fight broke out in the court room, they had to drag johnny's girl away
his mom stood up and shouted - judge don't take my boy this way
well son, you got any statement you'd like to make
before the bailiff comes to forever take you away
well judge, judge, i had debts no honest man could pay
the bank was holding my mortgage they were gonna take my house away
now i ain't sayin' that makes me an innocent man
but it was more than all this, judge, that put that gun in my hand
now your honor i do believe i'd be better off dead
so if you can take a man's life for the thoughts that's in his head
well won't you sit back in that chair and think it over jusge one more time
let 'em shave off my hair, and put me on that killin' line

Laid down last night, lord, I could not take my rest
Laid down last night, lord, I could not take my rest

Well, I shuffled through the city on the 4th of July
I had a firecracker waiting to blow
Breakin' like a rocket who makin' its way
To the cities of Mexico
Lived in an apartment out on Avenue A
I had a tar-hut on the corner of 10th
Had myself a lover who was finer than gold
But I've broken up and busted up since
And love don't play any games with me
Anymore like she did before
The world won't wait, so I better shake
That thing right out there through the door
Hell, I still love you, New York
Found myself a picture that would fit in the folds
Of my wallet and it stayed pretty good
Still amazed I didn't lose it on the roof of the place
When I was drunk and I was thinking of you
Every day the children they were singing their tune
Out on the streets and you could hear from inside
Used to take the subway up to Houston and 3rd
I would wait for you and I'd try to hide
And love won't play any games with me
Anymore if you don't want it to
The world won't wait and I watched you shake
But honey, I don't blame you
Hell, I still love you, New York
Hell, I still love you, New York
New York
I remember Christmas in the blistering cold
In a church on the upper west side
Babe, I stood their singing, I was holding your arm
You were holding my trust like a child
Found a lot of trouble out on Avenue B
But I tried to keep the overhead low
Farewell to the city and the love of my life
At least we left before we had to go
And love won't play any games with you
Anymore if you want 'em to
So we better shake this old thing out the door
I'll always be thinkin' of you
I'll always love you though New York
I'll always love you though New York, New York, New York

I'm not awake yet, I haven't opened my eyes.
But I haven't been late yet, I'm gonna to be on time.
For today's the day that you are coming back.
And I can't wait to see you materialize.
How much can I take now before I break inside?
How long will it take now before I realize,
That I can't live without you by my side,
And nothing else will keep me satisfied?
I've looked at my heart now and I trusted my eyes.
I made that mistake now ain't gonna make it twice.
But time can put the man on the other side.
And I can't wait to see what's left behind.
I'm not awake yet, I haven't opened my eyes.
I haven't been late yet.
Gonna be on time, gonna be on time,

Take me out tonight
Where theres music and theres people
And theyre young and alive
Driving in your car
I never never want to go home
Because I havent got one
Anymore
Take me out tonight
Because I want to see people and i
Want to see life
Driving in your car
Oh, please dont drop me home
Because its not my home, its their
Home, and Im welcome no more
And if a double-decker bus
Crashes into us
To die by your side
Is such a heavenly way to die
And if a ten-ton truck
Kills the both of us
To die by your side
Well, the pleasure - the privilege is mine
Take me out tonight
Take me anywhere, I dont care
I dont care, I dont care
And in the darkened underpass
I thought oh god, my chance has come at last
(but then a strange fear gripped me and i
Just couldnt ask)
Take me out tonight
Oh, take me anywhere, I dont care
I dont care, I dont care
Driving in your car
I never never want to go home
Because I havent got one, da ...
Oh, I havent got one
And if a double-decker bus
Crashes into us
To die by your side
Is such a heavenly way to die
And if a ten-ton truck
Kills the both of us
To die by your side
Well, the pleasure - the privilege is mine
Oh, there is a light and it never goes out
There is a light and it never goes out
There is a light and it never goes out
There is a light and it never goes out
There is a light and it never goes out
There is a light and it never goes out
There is a light and it never goes out
There is a light and it never goes out
There is a light and it never goes out0 -
Oh baby don't it feel like heaven right now
Don't it feel like somethin' from a dream
Yeah I've never known nothing quite like this
Don't it feel like tonight might never be again
We know better than to try and pretend
Baby no one could have ever told me 'bout this
The waiting is the hardest part
Every day you see one more card
You take it on faith, you take it to the heart
The waiting is the hardest part
Well yeah I might have chased a couple of women around
All it ever got me was down
Then there were those that made me feel good
But never as good as I feel right now
Baby you're the only one that's ever known how
To make me wanna live like I wanna live now
The waiting is the hardest part
Every day you see one more card
You take it on faith, you take it to the heart
The waiting is the hardest part
Don't let it kill you baby, don't let it get to you
Don't let em kill you baby, don't let 'em get to you
I'll be your breathin' heart, I'll be your cryin' fool
Don't let this go to far, don't let it get to you.We’ll meet again, but not yet…not yet.0 -
The Life Of Riley
by BADDIEL SKINNER AND THE LIGHTNING SEEDS
................................................................
Lost in the Milky way
Smile at the empty sky and wait for
The moment that a million chances
May all collide
Ill be the guiding light
Swim to me through stars that
Shine down
And call to the sleepy world
As they fall to Earth
So here's your life
We'll find our way
We're sailing blind
But its not certain nothing's for certain
I don't mind
I get the the feeling
you'll be fine
I still believe
That in this world
We've got to find the time
For the life of Riley
From cradles and sleepless nights
You breathe in life forever
And stare at the world from
Deep under eiderdown
All this worlds a crazy ride
Just take your seat and hold on tight
For the first time
I don't mind
I get the the feeling
you'll be fine
I still believe
That in this world
We've got to find the time
For the life of Riley0 -
drive down the street can't find my keys to my own fucking
home
i take a walk so i can curse my ass for being dumb
i make a right after the arches, stinking grease and bone
stop at the supermarket, people stare like i'm a dog
i'm goin' to lukin's...
i got a spot at lukin's...
i knock the door at lukin's...
open the fridge, now i know life is worth
i find the key, but i return to find an open door
some fucking freak who claims i fathered, by rape, her own
son
i find my wife, i call the cops, this day's work's never
done
the last i heard the freak was purchasing a fucking gun0 -
Whiskey Man's my friend, he's with me nearly all the time
He always joins me when I drink, and we get on just fine
Nobody has ever seen him, I'm the only one
Seemingly I must be mad, Insanity is fun
If that's the way it's done
Doctors say he just a figment of my twisted mind
If they can't see my Whiskey Man they must be going blind
Two men dressed in white collected me two days ago
They said there's only room for one and Whiskey Man can't go
Whiskey Man will waste away if he's left on his own
I can't even ring him 'cause he isn't on the phone
Hasn't got a home
Life is very gloomy in my little padded cell
It's a shame there wasn't room for Whiskey Man as well
Whiskey Man's my friend, he's with me nearly all the time
He always joins me when I drink, and we get on just fine
Just finelay down all thoughts; surrender to the void
~it is shining it is shining~0
