    Those who start wars, never fight them
    And those who fight wars, they never like them
    And those who write laws, can recite them
    And those who fight laws, they live and die by them.........MFSD

    Brother will kill brother
    Spilling blood across the land
    Killing for religion
    Something I dont understand

    Fools like me,who cross the sea
    And come to foreign lands
    Ask the sheep,for their beliefs
    Do you kill on gods command?

    A country thats divided
    Surely will not stand
    My past erased,no more disgrace
    No foolish naive stand

    The end is near,its crystal clear
    Part of the master plan
    Dont look now to israel
    It might be your homelands

    Holy wars.....



    Peace

    the waiting drove me mad
    your finally here and i'm a mess

    8 hours in the ER yesterday with my son
    his blood pressure went sky high from check in time till we got to leave
    mine too i'm sure
    i've been thinking those lyrics all day today was a much better day
    he's fixed up

    Goin' down to Lillian's music store
    To buy a black diamond string
    Gonna wind it up on my guitar
    Gonna make that silver sing

    Like it was Dreamville
    A long time ago
    A million miles away
    All the trees were green
    In Dreamville

    I keep wakin' up all by myself
    With a bluejay in my brain
    Flappin' his wings, makin' me sing
    It was just about to rain

    Like it was Dreamville
    Where I was born
    Light years from here
    And the air smelled good
    In Dreamville
    &&&&&&&&&&&&&&

    repress and restrain
    still the pressure and the pain
    wash the blood off your hands
    this time she won't understand

    change in the air
    and they'll hide everywhere
    and no one knows who's in control

    you're working so hard
    and you're never in charge
    your death creates success
    and you'll build and suppress

    ...Muse "Ruled By Secrecy"

    When the night has come
    And the land is dark
    And the moon is the only light we see
    No I won't be afraid
    No I won't be afraid
    Just as long as you stand, stand by me

    And darling, darling stand by me
    Oh, now, now, stand by me
    Stand by me, stand by me

    If the sky that we look upon
    Should tumble and fall
    And the mountain should crumble to the sea
    I won't cry, I won't cry
    No I won't shed a tear
    Just as long as you stand, stand by me

    And darling, darling stand by me
    Oh, stand by me
    Stand by me, stand by me, stand by me

    Whenever you're in trouble won't you stand by me
    Oh, now, now, stand by me
    Oh, stand by me, stand by me, stand by me

    Darling, darling stand by me
    Stand by me
    Oh stand by me, stand by me, stand by me

    Wish you were here...

    From my fingertips, the cigarette throws ashes to the ground
    I'd stop and talk to the girls who work this street, but I got business farther down
    Like one long season of rain, I will remain
    Thinking of you
    One day a ship comes in
    From far away a ship comes in
    One hundred days you wait for it
    And you know somewhere the ship comes in every day

    'Cause theres a switch that gets hit and it all stops making sense
    And in the middle of drinks, maybe the fifth or the sixth
    I'm completely alone at a table of friends
    I feel nothing for them. I feel nothing, nothing

    Well, I need a break from the city again
    I think I'll ship myself back west
    I got a friend there, she says, "hey, any time."
    Unless that offers expired, I have been less than frequent
    she's under no obligation to indulge every whim
    And I'm so ungrateful, I take, she gives and forgives
    And I keep forgetting it
  • Why does she sing her sad songs for me?
    I'm not the one to tenderly bring her soft sympathy
    I've just begun to see my way clear and it's plain if I stop I will fall
    I can lay down a tear for her pain, just a tear and that's all

    What does she want me to do?
    She says that she knows that moments are rare
    I suppose that it's true
    Then on she goes to say I don't care and she knows that I do

    Maybe she just has to sing for the sake of the song
    Who do I think that I am to decide that she's wrong?

    She'd like to think that I'm cruel but she knows that's a lie
    For I would be no more than a tool if I allowed her to cry all over me
    My sorrow is real even though I can't change my plans
    If she could see how I feel then I know that she'd understand

    Does she actually think I'm to blame?
    Does she really believe that some word of mine could relieve all her pain?
    Can't she see that she grieves just because she's been blindly deceived by her shame?

    Ah but maybe she just has to sing for the sake of the song
    Who do I think that I am to decide that she's wrong?

    Nothin's what it seems, maybe she'll start someday to realize
    If she abandons her dreams then all the words she can say are only lies
    When will she see that to gain is only to lose?
    All that she offers me are her chains and I got to refuse

    Ah but It's only to herself that she's lied
    She likes to pretend there's something that she should defend with her pride
    I don't intend to stand here and be the friend from whom she must hide

    Maybe she just has to sing for the sake of the song
    Who do I think that I am to decide that she's wrong?

    - Townes Van Zandt

    If I keep holding out
    Will the light shine through
    Under this broken roof
    Its only rain that I feel
    Ive been wishing out the days
    Ohh ohh oh come back

    I have been planning out
    All that I'd say to you
    Since you slipped away
    Know that I still remain true
    Ive been wishing out the days
    Please say that if you hadnt gone now
    I wouldnt have lost you another way
    From wherever you are
    Ohhhh ohh ohh oh oh come back

    And these days they linger on
    And in the night ive been waiting for
    The real possibility that I may meet you in my dreams
    I go to sleep
    If i dont fall apart, Will my memory stay clear
    So you had to go, And I had to remain here

    But the strangest thing today
    So far away and yet you feel so close
    And Im not gonna question any other way
    There must be an open door
    For you uhh uhh uhh.... To come back


    And the days they linger on
    And every night when Im waiting for
    The real possibility that I may meet you in my dreams
    Sometimes you're there and you're talking back to me
    Come the morning I can swear that you're next to me
    And its okayyyyyy


    Wish you were here...

    Imagine holding Planet Earth
    In the palm of your hand
    With no regard for your place of birth
    Or claim to any land

    The only thing between us now is the truth we understand
    If Planet Earth was in the palm of your hand

    50 years from now what will they say about us here?
    Did we care for the water and the fragile atmosphere?

    "If I Could Turn Back Time"

    If I could turn back time
    If I could find a way I'd take back those words that hurt you and you'd stay

    I don't know why I did the things I did I don't know why I said the things I said
    Pride's like a knife it can cut deep inside
    Words are like weapons they wound sometimes.

    I didn't really mean to hurt you I didn't wanna see you go I know I made you cry, but baby

    If I could turn back time
    If I could find a way
    I'd take back those words that hurt you
    And you'd stay
    If I could reach the stars
    I'd give them all to you
    Then you'd love me, love me
    Like you used to do

    If I could turn back time

    My world was shattered I was torn apart
    Like someone took a knife and drove it deep in my heart
    You walked out that door I swore that I didn't care
    But I lost everything darling then and there

    Too strong to tell you I was sorry
    Too proud to tell you I was wrong
    I know that I was blind, and ooh...

    Ooohh

    If I could turn back time
    If I could turn back time
    If I could turn back time
    ooh baby

    I didn't really mean to hurt you
    I didn't want to see you go
    I know I made you cry
    Ooohh

    If I could turn back time
    If I could find a way
    I'd take back those words that hurt you
    If I could reach the stars
    I'd give them all to you
    Then you'd love me, love me
    Like you used to do

    If I could turn back time (turn back time)
    If I could find a way (find a way)
    Then baby, maybe, maybe
    You'd stay

    Reach the stars
    If I could reach the stars

    Wish you were here...

    Hello me... Meet the real me
    And my misfits way of life
    A dark black past is my
    Most valued possession
    Hindsight is always 20-20,
    But looking back it's still a bit fuzzy
    Speak of mutually assured destruction?
    Nice story... Tell it to Reader's Digest!
