    Stepping out to Angellucci's for my coffee beans
    Checking out the movies and the magazines
    Waitress she watches me, crossing from the Barocco Bar
    I get a pickup for my steel guitar
    I saw you walking out Shaftesbury Avenue
    Excuse me talking, I wanna marry you
    This is seventh heaven street
    Don't you seem so proud
    You're just another angel in the crowd

    And I'm
    Walking in the wild west end
    Walking with your wild best friend

    And now my conductress on the number nineteen, She was a honey
    Pink toenails and hands all, dirty with the money
    Greasy hair, easy smile
    Made me feel nineteen for a while
    And I went down to, Chinatown
    In the backroom it's a man's world
    All the money go down
    Duck inside the doorway, duck to eat
    Just ain't no way,
    You and me, we can beat

    Walking in the wild west end
    Walking with your wild best friend

    Now, a gogo, dancing girl, yes I saw her
    The deejay, he say, 'here's Mandy for ya'
    I feel alright, seeing her, Do that stuff
    She's dancing high, I move on by
    The close ups can get rough

    When you're
    Walking in the wild west end

    Walk in silence,
    Don't walk away, in silence.
    See the danger,
    Always danger,
    Endless talking,
    Life rebuilding,
    Don't walk away.

    Walk in silence,
    Don't turn away, in silence.
    Your confusion,
    My illusion,
    Worn like a mask of self-hate,
    Confronts and then dies.
    Don't walk away.

    People like you find it easy,
    Naked to see,
    Walking on air.
    Hunting by the rivers,
    Through the streets,
    Every corner abandoned too soon,
    Set down with due care.
    Don't walk away, in silence,
    Don't walk away.

    you are my sunshine
    my only sunshine
    you make me happy
    when skies are gray

    you'll never know dear
    how much I love you
    please don't take
    my sunshine away

    Eyes were bloodshot
    Lips were red hot
    At the greatest show on earth
    At the feeding of five thousand
    Well I don't know what you heard

    Eyes were bloodshot
    Lips were red hot
    Sweet bliss fragrance fills the air
    Resuscitating all the breathless
    Reviving eveybody there
    Two fishes as the spirit
    FIve loaves of bread n soul
    At the feeding of five thousand
    Where the baskets overflowed

    Love it reaches through the darkness
    Love's the king of golden rules
    Bombs are falling as we're dancing
    To this man made sonic boom

    It's no secret that the stars are falling from the sky
    It's no secret that our world is in darkness tonight
    They say the sun is sometimes eclipsed by a moon
    Y'know I don't see you when she walks in the room

    It's no secret that a friend is someone who lets you help
    It's no secret that a liar won't believe anyone else
    They say a secret is something you tell one other person
    So I'm telling you...child

  • remember how it used to be
    when the sun would fill up the sky
    remember how we used to feel
    those days would never end
    those days would never end

    remember how it used to be
    when the stars would fill the sky
    remember how we used to dream
    those nights would never end
    those nights would never end

    it was the sweetness of your skin
    it was the hope of all we might have been
    that fills me with the hope to wish
    impossible things

    but now the sun shines cold
    and all the sky is grey
    the stars are dimmed by clouds and tears
    and all i wish
    is gone away
    all i wish
    is gone away

    all i wish
    is gone away

    Every last soul must pay the last toll
    In the dice game of life, who gets the last roll?
    Is it the one with the suit? The one with the sack?
    The one who hides behind his fuckin' gun and his badge?
    hear my name
    take a good look
    this could be the day
    hold my hand
    lie beside me
    i just need to say
  • "I know
    that you're an ocean
    after the storm has come..
    to stay

    I know
    that you're the silence
    after the sun has gone..
    away

    I know
    that just the smallest..
    part of the world belongs..
    to me

    You know
    I'm not a blind man..
    but truth is the hardest thing..
    to see

    I know
    that you're the worst thing..
    in all of the world..
    for me

    I know
    that you're the worst thing..
    in all of the world..
    for me"

    i wear your heart on my sleeve
    home is wherever you are
    i love you more every time i think of you
    you are crazy amazing
    Show #13 was a lucky one for me....

    I'm the next act
    waiting in the wings
    I'm an animal
    trapped in your hot car
    I am all the days
    that you choose to ignore

    You are all I need
    You are all I need
    I'm in the middle of your picture
    lying in the reeds

    I'm a moth
    who just wants to share your light
    I'm just an insect
    trying to get out of the night


    I only stick with you

    because there are no others

    I see you standin'
    Standin' on your own
    It's such a lonely place for you
    For you to be
    If you need a shoulder
    Or if you need a friend
    I'll be here standing
    Until the bitter end
    No one needs the sorrow
    No one needs the pain
    I hate to see you
    Walking out there
    Out in the rain
    So don't chastise me
    Or think I, I mean you harm
    Of those that take you
    Leave you strung out
    Much too far
    Baby-yeah

    Don't ever leave me
    Say you'll always be there
    All I ever wanted
    Was for you
    To know that I care
  • Oh Elise it doesn't matter what you do
    I know I'll never really get inside of you
    To make your eyes catch fire
    The way they should
    The way the blue could pull me in
    If they only would
    If they only would
    At least I'd lose this sense of sensing something else
    That hides away
    From me and you
    There're worlds to part
    With aching looks and breaking hearts
    And all the prayers your hands you make
    Oh I just take as much as you can throw
    And then throw it all away
    Oh I throw it all away
    Like throwing faces at the sky
    Like throwing arms round
    Yesterday
    I stood and stared
    Wide-eyed in front of you
    And the face I saw looked back
    The way I wanted to
    But I just can't hold my tears away
    The way you do
    "...Dimitri...He talks to me...'.."The Ghost of Greece..".
    "..That's One Happy Fuckin Ghost.."

  • I've been looking so long at these pictures of you
    That I almost believe that they're real
    I've been living so long with my pictures of you
    That I almost believe that the pictures are all I can feel

    Remembering you standing quiet in the rain
    As I ran to your heart to be near
    And we kissed as the sky fell in, holding you close
    How I always held close in your fear

    Remembering you running soft through the night
    You were bigger, brighter and whiter than snow
    Screamed at the make believe, screamed at the sky
    And you finally found all your courage to let it all go

    Remembering you fallen into my arms
    Crying for the death of your heart
    You were stone white, so delicate lost in the cold
    You were always so lost in the dark

    Remembering you, how you used to be
    Slow drowned you were angels, so much more than everything
    Hold for the last time then slip away quietly
    Open my eyes but I never see anything

    If only I'd thought of the right words
    I could have held on to your heart
    If only I'd thought of the right words
    I wouldn't be breaking apart all my pictures of you

    Looking so long at these pictures of you
    And never hold on to your heart
    Looking so long for the words to be true
    And always just breaking apart, my pictures of you

    There was nothing in the world that I ever wanted more
    Than to feel you deep in my heart
    There was nothing in the world that I ever wanted more
    Than to never feel the breaking apart, my pictures of you

    Your heart has a home in mine
    We won't have to say a word
    With a touch all shall be heard
    When I search my heart it's you I find

    My beloved one

    You were meant for me
    I believe you were sent to me
    From a dream straight into my arms
    Hold your body close to me
    You mean the most to me
    We will keep each other safe from harm
    Show #13 was a lucky one for me....
  • our muzak channel is playing some good stuff today. here is one on now...


    Oh, this is the start of something good
    Don't you agree?
    I haven't felt like this in so many moons
    You know what I mean?
    And we can build through this destruction
    As we are standing on our feet

    So, since you want to be with me
    You'll have to follow through
    With every word you say
    And I, all I really want is you
    You to stick around
    I'll see you everyday
    But you have to follow through
    You have to follow through

    These reeling emotions they just keep me alive
    They keep me in tune
    Oh, look what I'm holding here in my fire
    This is for you
    Am I too obvious to preach it?
    You're so hypnotic on my heart

    So, since you want to be with me
    You'll have to follow through
    With every word you say
    And I, all I really want is you
    You to stick around
    I'll see you everyday
    But you have to follow through
    You have to follow through

    The words you say to me are unlike anything
    That's ever been said
    And what you do to me is unlike anything
    That's ever been
    Am I too obvious to preach it?
    You're so hypnotic on my heart

    So, since you want to be with me
    You'll have to follow through
    With every word you say
    And I, all I really want is you
    you to stick around
    I'll see you everyday
    But you'll have to follow through
    With every word you say
    And I, all I really want is you
    you to stick around
    I'll see everyday
    But you have to follow through
    You have to follow through
    You're gonna have to follow

    Oh, this is the start of something good
    Don't you agree?

    Please tell me the reason
    behind the colors that you fly
    love just one nation
    and the whole world we divide
    you say you're "sorry"
    say, "there is no other choice"
    but god bless the people them
    who cannot raise their voice

    We can chase down all our enemies
    bring them to their knees
    We can bomb the world to pieces
    but we can't bomb it into peace
    whoa we may even find a solution
    to hunger and disease
    We can bomb the world to pieces
    but we can't bomb it into peace

    Violence brings one thing
    more more of the same
    military madness
    the smell of flesh and burning pain
    so i sing out to the masses
    stand up if you're still sane!
    to all of us gone crazy
    i sing this one refrain

    We can chase down all our enemies
    bring them to their knees
    We can bomb the world to pieces
    but we can't bomb it into peace
    whoa we may even find a solution
    to hunger and disease
    We can bomb the world to pieces
    but we can't bomb it into peace

    And i sing power to the peaceful
    love to the people y'all
    power to the peaceful
    love to the people y'all


    Peace
    *We CAN bomb the World to pieces, but we CAN'T bomb it into PEACE*...Michael Franti

    *MUSIC IS the expression of EMOTION.....and that POLITICS IS merely the DECOY of PERCEPTION*

    *The scientists of today think deeply instead of clearly. One must be sane to think clearly, but one can think deeply and be quite INSANE*....Nikola Tesla(a man who shaped our world of electricity with his futuristic inventions)


  • something i need to keep in mind....



    See, when you forgive your imperfections
    And you’ve auctioned all your clothes
    And look to see your true reflection
    You will be the one who loves you the most
    You will be the one who loves you the most
    You will be the one who loves you the most

  • i'm running out of time i'm out of step and
    closing down and never sleep for wanting hours
    the empty hours of greed and uselessly always
    the need to feel again the real belief of
    something more than mockery if only i could
    fill my heart with love

  • Scarred
    Your back was turned
    Curled like an embryo
    Take another face
    You will be kissed again
    I was cold as I mouthed the words
    And crawled across the mirror
    I wait
    Await the next breath
    Your name
    Like ice into my heart

    A shallow grave
    A monument to the ruined age
    Ice in my eyes
    And eyes like ice don't move
    Screaming at the moon
    Another past time
    Your name
    Like ice into my heart

    Everything as cold as life
    Can no one save you?
    Everything
    As cold as silence
    And you never say a word

    Your name
    Like ice into my heart
    Your name
    Like ice into my heart

    lost eyesight i'm on your side.

    angel left wing, right wing broken wing.

  • nothin to do with what you think
    If you ever think at all
    Bi-polar opposites attract
    All of a sudden my water broke

    I love you for what I am not
    I do not want what I have got
    A blanket acne'd with cigarette burns
    speak at once while taking turns
    "You can tell the greatness of a man by what makes him angry."  - Lincoln

    "Well, you tell him that I don't talk to suckas."
  • I love it all
    These games we play
    I close my eyes
    You run away
    I'm sure I asked you to stay
    But now you're gone
    And so I feel the grey
    Pulse in my head
    I turn off the lights and crawl into bed
    I try to think of sunshine
    But my body goes wet
    With the first crash of thunder

    I don't think I can know
    Anyone but you dear
    That's for sure

    When it gets to four
    It's my turn to go
    Oh the kiss
    So alcoholic and slow
    Arranging me for Saturday
    I thought you would know
    That I always sleep
    Alone

    I don't think I can know
    Anyone but you
    Dear
    That's for sure

    The upstairs room is cool and bright
    We can go up there in summer
    And dance all night

    Your sister started talking at a minute after ten
    So everyone jumped up
    And then fell over again
    In April you can join them
    And stare at me
    "...Dimitri...He talks to me...'.."The Ghost of Greece..".
    "..That's One Happy Fuckin Ghost.."

  • I'm only faking when I get it right
    Happy up here in my tree
  • I've been looking so long at these pictures of you
    That I almost believe that they're real
    I've been living so long with my pictures of you
    That I almost believe that the pictures are all I can feel

    Remembering you standing quiet in the rain
    As I ran to your heart to be near
    And we kissed as the sky fell in, holding you close
    How I always held close in your fear

    Remembering you running soft through the night
    You were bigger, brighter and whiter than snow
    Screamed at the make believe, screamed at the sky
    And you finally found all your courage to let it all go

    Remembering you fallen into my arms
    Crying for the death of your heart
    You were stone white, so delicate lost in the cold
    You were always so lost in the dark

    Remembering you, how you used to be
    Slow drowned you were angels, so much more than everything
    Hold for the last time then slip away quietly
    Open my eyes but I never see anything

    If only I'd thought of the right words
    I could have held on to your heart
    If only I'd thought of the right words
    I wouldn't be breaking apart all my pictures of you

    Looking so long at these pictures of you
    And never hold on to your heart
    Looking so long for the words to be true
    And always just breaking apart, my pictures of you

    There was nothing in the world that I ever wanted more
    Than to feel you deep in my heart
    There was nothing in the world that I ever wanted more
    Than to never feel the breaking apart, my pictures of you

    My fave Cure song simply because the lyrics are so beautiful. Brings back so many memories.
    Happy up here in my tree
