There's no-one left in the world that I can hold onto..
There is really no-one left at all there is only you..
And if you leave me now you leave all that we were undone..
There is really no-one left you are the only one..
And still the hardest part for you to put your trust in me
I love you more than i can say ... Why won't you just believe?
And still the hardest part for you to put your trust in me...
I love you more than i can say ... Why won't you just believe?...~
******************************** "Forgive every being, the bad feelings it's just me"
Lives opened and trashed...'look ma, watch me crash'...
No time to question...why'd nothing last...
Grasp and hold on...we're dyin' fast...
Soon be over...and I will relent...
Let the ocean swell, dissolve 'way my past
Three days, and maybe longer
Won't even know I've left
Under your tongue...I'm like a tab...
I will give you what...you're not sposed to have...
Under my breath...I swear by sin...
For better or for worse...a best we began...
Let the sun climb, oh, burn 'way my mask
Three days, and maybe longer
Shed my skin at last...shed...shed...
Let the sun shine, burn 'way my mask
Three days, and maybe longer
Won't ever find me here
Let the ocean dissolve 'way my past
Four days, and not much longer...
Let my spirit pass...
This is, this is...
This is, this is...
This is, this is...
My...last exit
... and the will to show I will always be better than before.
I'm obessive when just one thought of you comes up
I'm agressive with just the thought of closing up
You got me stressing, incessantly pressing the issue
'Cause every moment gone, you know I miss you
I'm the question and you're of course the answer
Hold me close, boy, 'cause I'm your tiny dancer
You make me shaken up, never mistaken
But I can't control myself
Got me calling out for help
S.O.S. please someone help me
It's not healthy for me to feel this way
Y.O.U. are making this hard
I can't take it, see, it don't feel right
S.O.S. please someone help me
It's not healthy for me to feel this way
Y.O.U. are making this hard
You got me tossing and turning
I cant sleep at night
This time please someone come and rescue me
'Cause you're in my mind, got me losing it
I'm lost you got me looking for the rest of me
Love is testing me, but still I'm losing it
This time please someone come and rescue me
'Cause you're in my mind, got me losing it
I'm lost you got me looking for the rest of me
Got the best of me, so now I'm losing it
Just your presence and I second guess my sanity
Yes it's a lesson and it's based on my vanity
My tummy's up in knots so as I see you I get so hot
Common sense is out the door
Can't seem to find the light
Take me, you know inside you feel it's right
Take me, I'm gonna put desire in your arms tonight
I'm out with you, you got me head over heels
Boy, you got me hanging on the way you make me feel
S.O.S. please someone help me
It's not healthy for me to feel this way
Y.O.U. are making this hard
You got me tossing and turning I cant sleep at night
This time please someone come and rescue me
'Cause you're in my mind, got me losing it
I'm lost, you got me looking for the rest of me
Love is testing me, but still im losing it
This time please someone come and rescue me
'Cause you're in my mind, got me losing it
I'm lost, you got me looking for the rest of me
Got the best of me, so now I'm losing it
Boy, you know you got me feeling open
And boy your loves enough with words unspoken
I said boy I'm telling you, you got me open
I don't know what to do it's true
I'm going crazy over you
I'm begging...
S.O.S. please somebody help me
It's not healthy for me to feel this way
Y.O.U. are making this hard
You got me tossing and turning
I cant sleep at night.
my lips are shakin' my nails are bit off
been a month since i've heard myself talk
all the advantage this life's got on me
picture a cup in the middle of the sea
and i fight back in my mind
never lets me be right
i got memories i got shit
so much it don't show
oh i walked the line when you held me in that night
i walked the line when you held my hand that night
an empty shells seem so easy to crack
got all these questions don't know who i could even ask
so i'll just lie alone and wait for the dream
where i'm not ugly and your lookin' at me
and i stare you back
oh blue eyes, i've seen it
if just once i could feel love
oh stare back at me, yeah..
but i walked the line when you held me in that night
oh i walked the line when you held my hand that night
oh i walked the line when you held me close that night
i paid the price never held you in real life
my lips are shakin'
You ask me to enter
But then You make me crawl
And I can't be holding on
To what You got
When all You've got is hurt
----
Underneath this smile lies everything
All my hopes and anger, pride and shame
Winded is the sailor drifiting by the storm
Wounded is the organ he left all bloodied on the shore
Gorgeous was his savior, sees her drowning his his wake
Daily taste the salt of her tears, but a chance blamed fate
Little secrets, tremors, turned to quakes
The smallest oceans still get big, big waves
Ransom paid the devil, he whispers pleasing words
Triumphant are the angels if they can get there first
Little secrets, tremors, turned to quakes
The smallest oceans still get big, big waves
I'll decide...take the dive...
Take my time...not my life...
Wait for signs...believe in lies...
To get by...it's divine...
Oh, you know what it's like
Turns the bow back, tows and drops the line
Puts his faith in love and tremor christ.
The time has gone, the song is over, thought I'd something more to say...
Well I’ll put on me walkin’ boots and be on the road in the mornin’
I’ll spend a week in County Cork so give the girls fair warnin’
I’m a Traveling Man I’m a drinkin’ man I’m gentle when I’m sober
Well I’ve a wife in Donegal and I’ve a wife in Kerry
tomorrow I marry a girl from Cork a lovely bit called Mary
I’m a Traveling Man I’m a drinkin’ man I’m gentle when I’m sober
Well I’ll put on my velvet suit and I’ll comb back my hair
I go to parties when I’m sure the whiskey will be there
I’m a Traveling Man I’m a drinkin’ man I’m gentle when I’m sober
Well I’ve a wife in Belfast Town another in Killarney
I can’t remember her first name but her brother’s name is Barney
I’m a Traveling Man I’m a drinkin’ man I’m gentle when I’m sober
Well I’ll put on my suit of rags and dust upon my head
I’ll beg for money to buy me tay and a barn shall be my bed
I’m a Traveling Man I’m a drinkin’ man I’m gentle when I’m sober
Cheers,
NEWAGEHIPPIE
Keep your eyes open, eventually something will happen....
Don't need a helmet, got a hard, hard head
Don't need a raincoat, I'm already wet
Don't need a bandage, there's too much blood
After a while, seems to roll right off.
Don't need a hand, there's always arms attached
Oh, don't get behind, I can't fall back
Why must we trust all these rusted rails?
They don't want no change, we already have.
Don't mean to push, but I'm being shoved
Oh, just like you, I think we've had enough
I can't believe a thing they want us to
We all got scars, they should have 'em too.
Pry, to
P-R-I-V-A-C-Y is priceless to me.
The time has gone, the song is over, thought I'd something more to say...
Take a bow, the night is over
This masquerade is getting older
Lights are low, the curtains down
There's no one here
There's no one here, there's no one in the crowd
Say your lines, but do you feel them?
Do you mean what you say when there's no one around?
Watching you, watching me, one lonely star
One lonely star you don't know who you are
I've always been in love with you
I guess you've always known it's true
You know it's true
You took my love for granted
Why oh, why?
The show is over, say goodbye
Say goodbye
Make them laugh, it comes so easy
When you get to the part
Where you're breaking my heart
Hide behind your smile, all the world loves a clown
Just make them smile, the whole world loves a clown
Wish you well, I cannot stay
You deserve an award for the role that you played
No more masquerade, you're one lonely star
One lonely star and you don't know who you are
I've always been in love with you
I guess you've always known it's true
You know it's true
You took my love for granted
Why oh, why?
The show is over, say goodbye
Say goodbye
All the world is a stage
And everyone has their part
But how was I to know which way the story would go?
How was I to know you'd break
You'd break, you'd break, you'd break
You'd break my heart
I've always been in love with you
Guess you've always known
You took my love for granted
Why oh, why?
The show is over, say goodbye.
there's a girl on a ledge, who's got nowhere to turn
because all the love that she had was just wood that she burned
now her life is on fire, it's no one's concern
she can blame the world...or pray til dawn
but only love...can break her fall
break her fall
yeah only love can break her fall...fall
it's like she's lost the invitation to the party on earth
and she's standing outside hating everyone here
yeah she's her own disease, crying to her doll
but only love...can break her fall
break her fall
only love can break her fall
yeah...
fall, break her fall, love oh oh..
can break her fall
ooh yeah only love can break her fall...
love, love, can break her fall, fall...
love, ooh can break her fall...
only love can break her..
If I could be anything in the world I would be your teardrop...I would be born in your eyes, live on your cheeks, and die on your lips.
He deals the cards as a meditation
And those he plays never suspect
He doesn't play for the money he wins
He don't play for respect
He deals the cards to find the answer
The sacred geometry of chance
The hidden law of a probable outcome
The numbers lead a dance
I know that the spades are the swords of a soldier
I know that the clubs are weapons of war
I know that diamonds mean money for this art
But that's not the shape of my heart
He may play the jack of diamonds
He may lay the queen of spades
He may conceal a king in his hand
While the memory of it fades
I know that the spades are the swords of a soldier
I know that the clubs are weapons of war
I know that diamonds mean money for this art
But that's not the shape of my heart
And if I told you that I loved you
You'd maybe think there's something wrong
I'm not a man of too many faces
The mask I wear is one
Well, those who speak know nothin'
And find out to their cost
Like those who curse their luck in too many places
And those who fear are lost
I know that the spades are the swords of a soldier
I know that the clubs are weapons of war
I know that diamonds mean money for this art
But that's not the shape of my heart
That's not the shape, the shape of my heart
That's not the shape, the shape of my heart
If I could be anything in the world I would be your teardrop...I would be born in your eyes, live on your cheeks, and die on your lips.
Whippoorwill’s singing, soft summer breeze;
Makes me think of my baby left down in new orleans,
I left down in new orleans
Magnolia you sweet thing, you’re driving me mad
Got to get back to you, baby;
You’re the best I ever had;
You’re the best I ever had;
You whisper, good morning so gently in my ear;
I’m coming to you baby;
I’ll soon be there
I’ll soon be there
Down the street you can hear her scream youre a disgrace
As she slams the door in his drunken face
And now he stands outside
And all the neighbours start to gossip and drool
He cries oh, girl you must be mad,
What happened to the sweet love you and me had?
Against the door he leans and starts a scene,
And his tears fall and burn the garden green
It's hard to argue
When you won't stop making sense
But my tongue still misbehaves
And it keeps digging my own grave
With my...
Hands open
And my eyes open
I just keep hoping
That your heart opens
Why would I sabotage
The best thing that I have
Well, it makes it easier to know
Exactly what I want
With my...
Hands open
And my eyes open
I just keep hoping
That your heart opens
It's not as easy
As willing it all to be right
Got to be more than hoping it's right
I want to hear you laugh like you really mean it
Collapse into me, tired with joy
Put Sufjan Stevens on
And we'll play your favorite song
"Chicago" bursts to life and your
Sweet smile remembers you
My...
Hands open
And my eyes open
I just keep hoping
That your heart opens
It's not as easy as willing it all to be right
Got to be more than hoping it's right
I want to hear you laugh like you really mean it
Collapse into me, tired with joy.
If keep holding out...Will the light shine through?
under this broken roof, there's only rain that I feel
I've been wishing out the days..
Come back..
I have been planing out, all that I'd say to you
Since you slipped away, know that I still remain true
I've been wishing out the days...
Please say,
that if you hadn't of gone now,
I wouldn't have lost you another way
From wherever you are..
Come back
And these days, they linger on
And in the night, as I'm waiting on
A real possibility I may meet you in my dream.
I go to sleep.
If I don't fall apart, will the memories stay clear
So you had to go, and I had to remain here
But the strangest thing to date,
So far way and yet,
You feel so close, and I'm not gonna question it any other way
There must be an open door for you...
To come back
In the days, they linger on
And every night, what I'm waiting for..
A real possibility I may meet you in my dream.
And sometimes you're there, and you're talking back to me
Come the morning, I could swear that you're next to me.
It's ok..
..its ok..its ok.
I'll be here
come back comeback
I'll be here
come back, comeback...
If I could be anything in the world I would be your teardrop...I would be born in your eyes, live on your cheeks, and die on your lips.
No more upset mornings
No more trying evenings
This American Dream I am disbelieving
When the gas in my tank feels like money in the bank
Gonna blow it all this time, take me one last ride
Oh the lights of the city
They only look good when I'm speeding
I wanna leave 'em all behind me
'Cause this time I'm gone
Long gone
This time I'm letting go of it all
So long
This time I'm gone
In the far off distance
As my taillights fade
No one tends to witness, but they will someday
Feel like a question is forming
And the answer's far
I will be what I could be
Once I get out of this town
For the lights of this city
They have lost all feeling
Gonna leave 'em all behind me
'Cause this time I'm gone
Long gone
This time I'm letting go of it all
So long
Long gone, I'm letting go of it all
Yeah, this time I'm gone
If nothing is everything
If nothing is everything
I'll have it all
If nothing is everything
Then I will have it all
I'm gone.
Big man stands behind an open door
Said, "leave your lady on the cement floor."
"Got some kicks, want to take a ride?"
I said, "yeah!"
"Take your pick, leave yourself behind"
I said, "yeah!"
I've no fear but for falling down
So look out below I am falling now
Oh please understand I just need, my friend,
A way a way a way home
Tried to walk, found a severed hand
Recognized it from the wedding band
Said "it's ok, do you want some more?"
I said, "yeah!"
"You'll see dragons after 3 or 4"
I said, "yeah!"
"Understand I'm not falling down"
I said, "look around, the room's taller now",
I can't close my eyes, 'cause I see the sound in waves
In waves, lets me stay calm
If I don't lose control
Explore and not explode
A preternatural other plane
With the power to maintain
Like a tear in all we know
Once dissolved we are free to grow
What is human, what is more?
"You think I got my eyes closed but I'm lookin' at you the whole fuckin' time..."
i've been wanting to post this tune since i've first heard it, so suits my inner mood almost always - in a good way, haha. finally, thanks to the generosity of a fellow poster, got the lyrics online...so yeah..........

Guns N Roses - Patience
=========================
Shed a tear 'cause I'm missing you
I'm still all right to smile
Girl, I think about you every day now
Was a time when I wasn't sure
But you set my mind at ease
There is no doubt you're in my heart now
Said, woman, take it slow
It'll work itself out fine
All we need is just a little patience
Said, sugar, make it slow
And we come together fine
All we need is just a little patience
I sit here on the stairs
'Cause I'd rather be alone
If I can't have you right now, I'll wait, dear
Sometimes I get so tense
But I can't speed up the time
But you know, love. There's one more thing to consider
Said, woman, take it slow
And things will be just fine
You and I'll just use a little patience
Said, sugar, take the time
'Cause the lights are shining bright
You and I've got what it takes to make it
We won't fake it
Ooh, never break it
'Cause I can't take it
(...Little patience, mm yeah, mm yeah)
(Need a little patience, yeah)
(Just a little patience, yeah)
(Some more patience, yeah)
I've been walking the streets at night
Just trying to get it right (Need some patience, yeah)
Hard to see with so many around
You know I don't like being stuck in the crowd (Could use some patience, yeah)
And the streets don't change, but baby the name
I ain't got time for the game (Gotta have some patience, yeah)
'Cause I need you
Yeah, yeah, but I need you (All it takes is patience)
Ooh, I need you (Just a little patience)
Whoa, I need you (Is all you need)
All this time
If I could be anything in the world I would be your teardrop...I would be born in your eyes, live on your cheeks, and die on your lips.
There must be lights burning brighter somewhere
Got to be birds flying higher in a sky more blue
If I can dream of a better land
Where all my brothers walk hand in hand
Tell me why, oh why, oh why can’t my dream come true
There must be peace and understanding sometime
Strong winds of promise that will blow away
All the doubt and fear
If I can dream of a warmer sun
Where hope keeps shining on everyone
Tell me why, oh why, oh why won’t that sun appear
We’re lost in a cloud
With too much rain
We’re trapped in a world
That’s troubled with pain
But as long as a man
Has the strength to dream
He can redeem his soul and fly
Deep in my heart there’s a trembling question
Still I am sure that the answer gonna come somehow
Out there in the dark, there’s a beckoning candle
And while I can think, while I can talk
While I can stand, while I can walk
While I can dream, please let my dream
Come true, right now
Let it come true right now
Oh yeah
"You think I got my eyes closed but I'm lookin' at you the whole fuckin' time..."
i heard the sound of your bike,
as your wheels hit the gravel,
then your engine in the driveway
cutting off
and i pushed through the screen door
and i stood out on the porch
thinking figh, fight, fight
at all costs,
but instead i let you in,
just like i've always done
and i sat you down and offered you a beer
and across the kitchen table
i fired several rounds,
but you were still sitting here
when the smoke cleared.
and you came crawling back
to say that you wanna
make good in the end
and oh, oh,
let me count the ways
that i abhore you,
and you were never a good lay
and you were never a good friend
but, oh, oh, what else can i say...
i adore you
all i need is my leather,
one t-shirt and two socks,
i'll keep my hands warm
in your pockets
and we can use the engine block,
and we'll ride out to california
with my arms around your chest,
and i'll pretend that this is real
'cuz this is what i like best,
and you've been juggling two women
like a stupid circus clown
telling us both we are the one
and maybe you can keep me from ever being happy,
but you're not gonna stop me from having fun.
so let's go before i change my mind
i'll leave the luggage of all your lives behind
'cuz i am bigger than everything that came before
and you were never very kind,
and you let me way down every time
but oh, oh, oh what can i say...
i adore you
i heard the sound of your bike,
as your wheels hit the gravel,
then your engine in the driveway
cutting off
If you want to tell people the truth, make them laugh, otherwise they'll kill you.
Man is least himself when he talks in his own person. Give him a mask, and he will tell you the truth.
-Oscar Wilde
If you twist and turn away
If you tear yourself in two again
If I could, yes I would
If I could, I would
Let it go
Surrender
Dislocate
If I could throw this
Lifeless lifeline to the wind
Leave this heart of clay
See you walk, walk away
Into the night
And through the rain
Into the half-light
And through the flame
If I could through myself
Set your spirit free
I'd lead your heart away
See you break, break away
Into the light
And to the day
Oooh oooh, oooh oooh, oooh oooh oooh
To let it go
And so to fade away
To let it go
And so fade away
I'm wide awake
I'm wide awake
Wide awake
I'm not sleeping, oh no, no, no
If you should ask then maybe they'd
Tell you what I would say
True colors fly in blue and black
Bruised silken sky and burning flag
Colors crash, collide in blood shot eyes
Oooh oooh, oooh oooh, oooh oooh oooh
If I could, you know I would
If I could, I would
Let it go
This desperation
Dislocation
Separation
Condemnation
Revelation
In temptation
Isolation
Desolation
Let it go
And so fade away
To let it go, oh yeah
And so fade away
To let it go, oh No
And so to fade away
I'm wide awake
I'm wide awake
Wide awake
I'm not sleeping
Oh, no, no.
(Count-In: John Bonham - "We've done four already but now we're steady
and then they went: One, two, three, four")
Singing in the sunshine, laughing in the rain
Hitting on the moonshine, rocking in the grain
Ain't no time to pack my bag, my foots outside the door
Got a date, I can't be late, for the high hopes hailla ball.
Singing to an ocean, I can hear the ocean's roar
Play for free, play for me and play a whole lot more, more!
Singing about good things and the sun that lights the day
I used to sing on the mountains, has the ocean lost it's way.
Sitting round singing songs 'til the night turns into day
Used to sing on the mountains but the mountains washed away
Now I'm singing all my songs to the girl who won my heart
She is only three years old and it's a real fine way to start.
I got with somebody's date
You're like a soap opera cover
My lover self-automates
Juicy
You say a-somebody say
You're like a salve for a leper
You're sweet for somebody's pain
Juicy
Ah, Juicy
Yeah, you got to live for your own
You say you got all the sordid details
Check out retail
Watch it sell
Juicy
Ah, Juicy
I gotta delay
Mothers, children on the street
Can't get enough to eat
Off the record
Dishes fly
Don't know the reason why
Meet me in the check out stand
See who can be the lover man
Conscience bleeding in a song
Guilty as the day is long
Goodbye
Yeah, you got to live for your own
You say you got all the sordid details
Check out retail
Watch it sell
I got to see that lie
You say what you're going to say
You got to know it's a bitter poison
Sapping all of your soul away
Deliver me
Out of my sadness
Deliver me
From all of the madness
Deliver me
Courage to guide me
Deliver me
Strength from inside me
All of my life I've been in hiding
Wishing there was someone just like you
Now that you're here, now that I've found you
I know that you're the one to pull me through
Deliver me
Loving and caring
Deliver me
Giving and sharing
Deliver me
The cross that I'm bearing
All of my life I was in hiding
Wishing there was someone just like you
Now that you're here, now that I've found you
I know that you're the one to pull me through
Comments
What is going on
I need to change, I need to play
Like a five year old
I can't detach from the past and all of the pain
I need to learn, start from scratch, begin again
Throw away yesterday
Today is a brand new day
Throw away yesterday
Today is a brand new day
So, I'm going to eat one hundred sweets
I don't care if I get fat
And I'm going to speak, I won't censor me
I know I can take nothing back
And I'm going to jump, I will unburden
I cannot go too deep
I will not run from bad things I've done
They're things I'll try not to repeat
Throw away yesterday
Today is a brand new day
Throw away yesterday
Today is a brand new day
Welcome to
The Church of What's Happening Now
Head straight through
It costs nothing but change.
There's no-one left in the world that I can hold onto..
There is really no-one left at all there is only you..
And if you leave me now you leave all that we were undone..
There is really no-one left you are the only one..
And still the hardest part for you to put your trust in me
I love you more than i can say ... Why won't you just believe?
And still the hardest part for you to put your trust in me...
I love you more than i can say ... Why won't you just believe?...~
"Forgive every being,
the bad feelings
it's just me"
You change the way I see them
These words will fade
When you explain why you hate them
We are the same
She keeps repeating
All that she needed
She says she's right here
She seems so distant
Saying goodbye this time, the same old story
Seeing you cry, makes me feel like saying sorry
Just a few last hours, we gotta make this count
We're counting backwards
Just a few last hours, we gotta make this count
We're falling forwards
She keeps repeating
All that she needed
She says she's right here
She seems so distant
Saying goodbye this time, the same old story
Seeing you cry, makes me feel like saying sorry
Saying goodbye this time, the same old story
Seeing you cry, makes me feel like saying sorry
Saying sorry
We're falling apart
Wish we knew this from the start
Saying goodbye's the hardest part
Wish we knew this from the start....
Stab it down, one-way needle, pulled so slowly
Drains and spills, soaks the pages, fills their sponges
It's my blood
It's my blood
Paint Ed big...turn Ed into...one of his enemies...
It's my blood
It's my blood
It's my blood
Stab it down, fill the pages, suck my fuckin' life out, man
Maker of my enemies...
Take...my...
No time to question...why'd nothing last...
Grasp and hold on...we're dyin' fast...
Soon be over...and I will relent...
Let the ocean swell, dissolve 'way my past
Three days, and maybe longer
Won't even know I've left
Under your tongue...I'm like a tab...
I will give you what...you're not sposed to have...
Under my breath...I swear by sin...
For better or for worse...a best we began...
Let the sun climb, oh, burn 'way my mask
Three days, and maybe longer
Shed my skin at last...shed...shed...
Let the sun shine, burn 'way my mask
Three days, and maybe longer
Won't ever find me here
Let the ocean dissolve 'way my past
Four days, and not much longer...
Let my spirit pass...
This is, this is...
This is, this is...
This is, this is...
My...last exit
Playing in the dirt
We find the seeds of doubt
Don't water them with your tears
Don't think about all the years
You'd rather be without
Eden lets me in
I find the seeds of love
And climb upon the highwire
I kiss and tell all my fears
Falling down the mountain
End up kissing dirt
Look a little closer
Sometimes it wouldn't hurt
Playing in the dirt
We find the seeds of fun
And we scream like alleycats
Tearing down what we attack
To prove that we are one
Cutting through the night
And we find the seeds of lust
And lose our minds on one intent
These passions never seem to end
I'm agressive with just the thought of closing up
You got me stressing, incessantly pressing the issue
'Cause every moment gone, you know I miss you
I'm the question and you're of course the answer
Hold me close, boy, 'cause I'm your tiny dancer
You make me shaken up, never mistaken
But I can't control myself
Got me calling out for help
S.O.S. please someone help me
It's not healthy for me to feel this way
Y.O.U. are making this hard
I can't take it, see, it don't feel right
S.O.S. please someone help me
It's not healthy for me to feel this way
Y.O.U. are making this hard
You got me tossing and turning
I cant sleep at night
This time please someone come and rescue me
'Cause you're in my mind, got me losing it
I'm lost you got me looking for the rest of me
Love is testing me, but still I'm losing it
This time please someone come and rescue me
'Cause you're in my mind, got me losing it
I'm lost you got me looking for the rest of me
Got the best of me, so now I'm losing it
Just your presence and I second guess my sanity
Yes it's a lesson and it's based on my vanity
My tummy's up in knots so as I see you I get so hot
Common sense is out the door
Can't seem to find the light
Take me, you know inside you feel it's right
Take me, I'm gonna put desire in your arms tonight
I'm out with you, you got me head over heels
Boy, you got me hanging on the way you make me feel
S.O.S. please someone help me
It's not healthy for me to feel this way
Y.O.U. are making this hard
You got me tossing and turning I cant sleep at night
This time please someone come and rescue me
'Cause you're in my mind, got me losing it
I'm lost, you got me looking for the rest of me
Love is testing me, but still im losing it
This time please someone come and rescue me
'Cause you're in my mind, got me losing it
I'm lost, you got me looking for the rest of me
Got the best of me, so now I'm losing it
Boy, you know you got me feeling open
And boy your loves enough with words unspoken
I said boy I'm telling you, you got me open
I don't know what to do it's true
I'm going crazy over you
I'm begging...
S.O.S. please somebody help me
It's not healthy for me to feel this way
Y.O.U. are making this hard
You got me tossing and turning
I cant sleep at night.
been a month since i've heard myself talk
all the advantage this life's got on me
picture a cup in the middle of the sea
and i fight back in my mind
never lets me be right
i got memories i got shit
so much it don't show
oh i walked the line when you held me in that night
i walked the line when you held my hand that night
an empty shells seem so easy to crack
got all these questions don't know who i could even ask
so i'll just lie alone and wait for the dream
where i'm not ugly and your lookin' at me
and i stare you back
oh blue eyes, i've seen it
if just once i could feel love
oh stare back at me, yeah..
but i walked the line when you held me in that night
oh i walked the line when you held my hand that night
oh i walked the line when you held me close that night
i paid the price never held you in real life
my lips are shakin'
But then You make me crawl
And I can't be holding on
To what You got
When all You've got is hurt
----
Underneath this smile lies everything
All my hopes and anger, pride and shame
Wounded is the organ he left all bloodied on the shore
Gorgeous was his savior, sees her drowning his his wake
Daily taste the salt of her tears, but a chance blamed fate
Little secrets, tremors, turned to quakes
The smallest oceans still get big, big waves
Ransom paid the devil, he whispers pleasing words
Triumphant are the angels if they can get there first
Little secrets, tremors, turned to quakes
The smallest oceans still get big, big waves
I'll decide...take the dive...
Take my time...not my life...
Wait for signs...believe in lies...
To get by...it's divine...
Oh, you know what it's like
Turns the bow back, tows and drops the line
Puts his faith in love and tremor christ.

Keep your eyes open, eventually something will happen....
Don't need a raincoat, I'm already wet
Don't need a bandage, there's too much blood
After a while, seems to roll right off.
Don't need a hand, there's always arms attached
Oh, don't get behind, I can't fall back
Why must we trust all these rusted rails?
They don't want no change, we already have.
Don't mean to push, but I'm being shoved
Oh, just like you, I think we've had enough
I can't believe a thing they want us to
We all got scars, they should have 'em too.
Pry, to
P-R-I-V-A-C-Y is priceless to me.
This masquerade is getting older
Lights are low, the curtains down
There's no one here
There's no one here, there's no one in the crowd
Say your lines, but do you feel them?
Do you mean what you say when there's no one around?
Watching you, watching me, one lonely star
One lonely star you don't know who you are
I've always been in love with you
I guess you've always known it's true
You know it's true
You took my love for granted
Why oh, why?
The show is over, say goodbye
Say goodbye
Make them laugh, it comes so easy
When you get to the part
Where you're breaking my heart
Hide behind your smile, all the world loves a clown
Just make them smile, the whole world loves a clown
Wish you well, I cannot stay
You deserve an award for the role that you played
No more masquerade, you're one lonely star
One lonely star and you don't know who you are
I've always been in love with you
I guess you've always known it's true
You know it's true
You took my love for granted
Why oh, why?
The show is over, say goodbye
Say goodbye
All the world is a stage
And everyone has their part
But how was I to know which way the story would go?
How was I to know you'd break
You'd break, you'd break, you'd break
You'd break my heart
I've always been in love with you
Guess you've always known
You took my love for granted
Why oh, why?
The show is over, say goodbye.
because all the love that she had was just wood that she burned
now her life is on fire, it's no one's concern
she can blame the world...or pray til dawn
but only love...can break her fall
break her fall
yeah only love can break her fall...fall
it's like she's lost the invitation to the party on earth
and she's standing outside hating everyone here
yeah she's her own disease, crying to her doll
but only love...can break her fall
break her fall
only love can break her fall
yeah...
fall, break her fall, love oh oh..
can break her fall
ooh yeah only love can break her fall...
love, love, can break her fall, fall...
love, ooh can break her fall...
only love can break her..
And those he plays never suspect
He doesn't play for the money he wins
He don't play for respect
He deals the cards to find the answer
The sacred geometry of chance
The hidden law of a probable outcome
The numbers lead a dance
I know that the spades are the swords of a soldier
I know that the clubs are weapons of war
I know that diamonds mean money for this art
But that's not the shape of my heart
He may play the jack of diamonds
He may lay the queen of spades
He may conceal a king in his hand
While the memory of it fades
I know that the spades are the swords of a soldier
I know that the clubs are weapons of war
I know that diamonds mean money for this art
But that's not the shape of my heart
And if I told you that I loved you
You'd maybe think there's something wrong
I'm not a man of too many faces
The mask I wear is one
Well, those who speak know nothin'
And find out to their cost
Like those who curse their luck in too many places
And those who fear are lost
I know that the spades are the swords of a soldier
I know that the clubs are weapons of war
I know that diamonds mean money for this art
But that's not the shape of my heart
That's not the shape, the shape of my heart
That's not the shape, the shape of my heart
(john j. cale)
Whippoorwill’s singing, soft summer breeze;
Makes me think of my baby left down in new orleans,
I left down in new orleans
Magnolia you sweet thing, you’re driving me mad
Got to get back to you, baby;
You’re the best I ever had;
You’re the best I ever had;
You whisper, good morning so gently in my ear;
I’m coming to you baby;
I’ll soon be there
I’ll soon be there
As she slams the door in his drunken face
And now he stands outside
And all the neighbours start to gossip and drool
He cries oh, girl you must be mad,
What happened to the sweet love you and me had?
Against the door he leans and starts a scene,
And his tears fall and burn the garden green
When you won't stop making sense
But my tongue still misbehaves
And it keeps digging my own grave
With my...
Hands open
And my eyes open
I just keep hoping
That your heart opens
Why would I sabotage
The best thing that I have
Well, it makes it easier to know
Exactly what I want
With my...
Hands open
And my eyes open
I just keep hoping
That your heart opens
It's not as easy
As willing it all to be right
Got to be more than hoping it's right
I want to hear you laugh like you really mean it
Collapse into me, tired with joy
Put Sufjan Stevens on
And we'll play your favorite song
"Chicago" bursts to life and your
Sweet smile remembers you
My...
Hands open
And my eyes open
I just keep hoping
That your heart opens
It's not as easy as willing it all to be right
Got to be more than hoping it's right
I want to hear you laugh like you really mean it
Collapse into me, tired with joy.
under this broken roof, there's only rain that I feel
I've been wishing out the days..
Come back..
I have been planing out, all that I'd say to you
Since you slipped away, know that I still remain true
I've been wishing out the days...
Please say,
that if you hadn't of gone now,
I wouldn't have lost you another way
From wherever you are..
Come back
And these days, they linger on
And in the night, as I'm waiting on
A real possibility I may meet you in my dream.
I go to sleep.
If I don't fall apart, will the memories stay clear
So you had to go, and I had to remain here
But the strangest thing to date,
So far way and yet,
You feel so close, and I'm not gonna question it any other way
There must be an open door for you...
To come back
In the days, they linger on
And every night, what I'm waiting for..
A real possibility I may meet you in my dream.
And sometimes you're there, and you're talking back to me
Come the morning, I could swear that you're next to me.
It's ok..
..its ok..its ok.
I'll be here
come back comeback
I'll be here
come back, comeback...
No more trying evenings
This American Dream I am disbelieving
When the gas in my tank feels like money in the bank
Gonna blow it all this time, take me one last ride
Oh the lights of the city
They only look good when I'm speeding
I wanna leave 'em all behind me
'Cause this time I'm gone
Long gone
This time I'm letting go of it all
So long
This time I'm gone
In the far off distance
As my taillights fade
No one tends to witness, but they will someday
Feel like a question is forming
And the answer's far
I will be what I could be
Once I get out of this town
For the lights of this city
They have lost all feeling
Gonna leave 'em all behind me
'Cause this time I'm gone
Long gone
This time I'm letting go of it all
So long
Long gone, I'm letting go of it all
Yeah, this time I'm gone
If nothing is everything
If nothing is everything
I'll have it all
If nothing is everything
Then I will have it all
I'm gone.
Said, "leave your lady on the cement floor."
"Got some kicks, want to take a ride?"
I said, "yeah!"
"Take your pick, leave yourself behind"
I said, "yeah!"
I've no fear but for falling down
So look out below I am falling now
Oh please understand I just need, my friend,
A way a way a way home
Tried to walk, found a severed hand
Recognized it from the wedding band
Said "it's ok, do you want some more?"
I said, "yeah!"
"You'll see dragons after 3 or 4"
I said, "yeah!"
"Understand I'm not falling down"
I said, "look around, the room's taller now",
I can't close my eyes, 'cause I see the sound in waves
In waves, lets me stay calm
If I don't lose control
Explore and not explode
A preternatural other plane
With the power to maintain
Like a tear in all we know
Once dissolved we are free to grow
What is human, what is more?
Inside Job
(Music: McCready/Vedder - Lyrics: McCready)
Underneath this smile lies everything
All my hopes and anger, pride and shame
I make myself a pact, not to shut doors on the past
Just for today I am free
I will not lose my faith
It's an inside job today
I know this one thing well
I used to try and kill love. the highest sin
Breathing insecurity out and in
Searching hope, I'm shown the way to run straight
Pursuing the greater way for all human light
How I choose to feel is how I am
How I choose to feel is how I am
I will not lose my faith
It's an inside job today
Holding on, the light of night
On my knees to rise and fix my broken soul
Again
Let me run into the rain
To be a human light again
Let me run into the rain
To shine a human light today
Life comes from within your heart and desire
Life comes from within my heart and desire
Life comes from within your heart and desire
Let's just breathe...
I am myself like you somehow
Sammi: Wanna just break up?
Sometimes sad for the way it's grown
Ranging up and ranging out
And trying to change my ways about
There's a place in the leaf, a place in the bough
Found a place for me just now, just now, just now
Moving on with every word
Moving with all the words I've heard
Turning the wheel as fast as I can
Turning the wheel to make me a man
There's a man in the moon, a man in the sun
Growing strong, there's a man in me just now, just now, just now
No behind and no before
There's no need to worry any more
Happy then, happy now
There's always a way to get happy somehow
Friend on the road, a friend in the home
A better friend now than I've ever known just now, just now, just now
Searching back for the friends I've known
Sometimes sad for the way it's grown
Changing up and ranging out
And trying to change my ways about
There's a place in the leaf, a place in the bough
Found a place for me just now, just now, just now
=========================
Shed a tear 'cause I'm missing you
I'm still all right to smile
Girl, I think about you every day now
Was a time when I wasn't sure
But you set my mind at ease
There is no doubt you're in my heart now
Said, woman, take it slow
It'll work itself out fine
All we need is just a little patience
Said, sugar, make it slow
And we come together fine
All we need is just a little patience
I sit here on the stairs
'Cause I'd rather be alone
If I can't have you right now, I'll wait, dear
Sometimes I get so tense
But I can't speed up the time
But you know, love. There's one more thing to consider
Said, woman, take it slow
And things will be just fine
You and I'll just use a little patience
Said, sugar, take the time
'Cause the lights are shining bright
You and I've got what it takes to make it
We won't fake it
Ooh, never break it
'Cause I can't take it
(...Little patience, mm yeah, mm yeah)
(Need a little patience, yeah)
(Just a little patience, yeah)
(Some more patience, yeah)
I've been walking the streets at night
Just trying to get it right (Need some patience, yeah)
Hard to see with so many around
You know I don't like being stuck in the crowd (Could use some patience, yeah)
And the streets don't change, but baby the name
I ain't got time for the game (Gotta have some patience, yeah)
'Cause I need you
Yeah, yeah, but I need you (All it takes is patience)
Ooh, I need you (Just a little patience)
Whoa, I need you (Is all you need)
All this time
(Music: Vedder - Lyrics: Vedder)
No more upset mornings
No more trying evenings
It's the American Dream I am disbelieving.
When the gas in my tank feels like money in the bank
I'm gonna blow it all this time, take me one last ride
Fot the lights of the city
They only look good when I'm speeding
I wanna leave them all behind me because this time
I'm gone
Gone, going for it all this time, gone
In the far off distance
As my taillights fade
No one thanks the witness but they will someday
Feel like a question is forming
And the answers far
I will be what I could be
Once I get out of this town
The lights of this city
They've lost all of their feeling
I wanna leave em all behind me because this time I'm gone
Gone, going for it all, this time I'm gone
Nothing is everything
I'll have it all
If nothing is everything then I will have it all
I'm gone
Let's just breathe...
I am myself like you somehow
Got to be birds flying higher in a sky more blue
If I can dream of a better land
Where all my brothers walk hand in hand
Tell me why, oh why, oh why can’t my dream come true
There must be peace and understanding sometime
Strong winds of promise that will blow away
All the doubt and fear
If I can dream of a warmer sun
Where hope keeps shining on everyone
Tell me why, oh why, oh why won’t that sun appear
We’re lost in a cloud
With too much rain
We’re trapped in a world
That’s troubled with pain
But as long as a man
Has the strength to dream
He can redeem his soul and fly
Deep in my heart there’s a trembling question
Still I am sure that the answer gonna come somehow
Out there in the dark, there’s a beckoning candle
And while I can think, while I can talk
While I can stand, while I can walk
While I can dream, please let my dream
Come true, right now
Let it come true right now
Oh yeah
i heard the sound of your bike,
as your wheels hit the gravel,
then your engine in the driveway
cutting off
and i pushed through the screen door
and i stood out on the porch
thinking figh, fight, fight
at all costs,
but instead i let you in,
just like i've always done
and i sat you down and offered you a beer
and across the kitchen table
i fired several rounds,
but you were still sitting here
when the smoke cleared.
and you came crawling back
to say that you wanna
make good in the end
and oh, oh,
let me count the ways
that i abhore you,
and you were never a good lay
and you were never a good friend
but, oh, oh, what else can i say...
i adore you
all i need is my leather,
one t-shirt and two socks,
i'll keep my hands warm
in your pockets
and we can use the engine block,
and we'll ride out to california
with my arms around your chest,
and i'll pretend that this is real
'cuz this is what i like best,
and you've been juggling two women
like a stupid circus clown
telling us both we are the one
and maybe you can keep me from ever being happy,
but you're not gonna stop me from having fun.
so let's go before i change my mind
i'll leave the luggage of all your lives behind
'cuz i am bigger than everything that came before
and you were never very kind,
and you let me way down every time
but oh, oh, oh what can i say...
i adore you
i heard the sound of your bike,
as your wheels hit the gravel,
then your engine in the driveway
cutting off
Man is least himself when he talks in his own person. Give him a mask, and he will tell you the truth.
-Oscar Wilde
If you tear yourself in two again
If I could, yes I would
If I could, I would
Let it go
Surrender
Dislocate
If I could throw this
Lifeless lifeline to the wind
Leave this heart of clay
See you walk, walk away
Into the night
And through the rain
Into the half-light
And through the flame
If I could through myself
Set your spirit free
I'd lead your heart away
See you break, break away
Into the light
And to the day
Oooh oooh, oooh oooh, oooh oooh oooh
To let it go
And so to fade away
To let it go
And so fade away
I'm wide awake
I'm wide awake
Wide awake
I'm not sleeping, oh no, no, no
If you should ask then maybe they'd
Tell you what I would say
True colors fly in blue and black
Bruised silken sky and burning flag
Colors crash, collide in blood shot eyes
Oooh oooh, oooh oooh, oooh oooh oooh
If I could, you know I would
If I could, I would
Let it go
This desperation
Dislocation
Separation
Condemnation
Revelation
In temptation
Isolation
Desolation
Let it go
And so fade away
To let it go, oh yeah
And so fade away
To let it go, oh No
And so to fade away
I'm wide awake
I'm wide awake
Wide awake
I'm not sleeping
Oh, no, no.
(Bonham/Jones/Page/Plant)
(Count-In: John Bonham - "We've done four already but now we're steady
and then they went: One, two, three, four")
Singing in the sunshine, laughing in the rain
Hitting on the moonshine, rocking in the grain
Ain't no time to pack my bag, my foots outside the door
Got a date, I can't be late, for the high hopes hailla ball.
Singing to an ocean, I can hear the ocean's roar
Play for free, play for me and play a whole lot more, more!
Singing about good things and the sun that lights the day
I used to sing on the mountains, has the ocean lost it's way.
Sitting round singing songs 'til the night turns into day
Used to sing on the mountains but the mountains washed away
Now I'm singing all my songs to the girl who won my heart
She is only three years old and it's a real fine way to start.
Let's just breathe...
I am myself like you somehow
You're like a soap opera cover
My lover self-automates
Juicy
You say a-somebody say
You're like a salve for a leper
You're sweet for somebody's pain
Juicy
Ah, Juicy
Yeah, you got to live for your own
You say you got all the sordid details
Check out retail
Watch it sell
Juicy
Ah, Juicy
I gotta delay
Mothers, children on the street
Can't get enough to eat
Off the record
Dishes fly
Don't know the reason why
Meet me in the check out stand
See who can be the lover man
Conscience bleeding in a song
Guilty as the day is long
Goodbye
Yeah, you got to live for your own
You say you got all the sordid details
Check out retail
Watch it sell
I got to see that lie
You say what you're going to say
You got to know it's a bitter poison
Sapping all of your soul away
Yeah, Juicy
Ah, ah, ah
Juicy.
Out of my sadness
Deliver me
From all of the madness
Deliver me
Courage to guide me
Deliver me
Strength from inside me
All of my life I've been in hiding
Wishing there was someone just like you
Now that you're here, now that I've found you
I know that you're the one to pull me through
Deliver me
Loving and caring
Deliver me
Giving and sharing
Deliver me
The cross that I'm bearing
All of my life I was in hiding
Wishing there was someone just like you
Now that you're here, now that I've found you
I know that you're the one to pull me through
Deliver me
Deliver me
Oh, deliver me.
