would it pay you more to walk on water
than to wear a crown of thorns
it wouldn't pain me more to bury you rich
than to bury you poorCancel my subscription to the Ressurection

I want to
I want to be someone else or I'll explode
Floating upon this surface for the birds
The birds
The birds
You want me?
Fucking well come and find me
I'll be waiting
With a gun and a pack of sandwiches
And nothing
Nothing
Nothing
Nothing
You want me?
Well come on and break the door down
You want me?
Fucking come on and break the door down
I'm ready
I'm ready

I'm ready
I'm ready

NICE.We’ll meet again, but not yet…not yet.0 -
I'll sing it one last time for you
Then we really have to go
You've been the only thing that's right
In all I've done
And I can barely look at you
But every single time I do
I know we'll make it anywhere
Away from here
Light up, light up
As if you have a choice
Even if you cannot hear my voice
I'll be right beside you, dear
Louder, louder
And we'll run for our lives
I can hardly speak, I understand
Why you can't raise your voice to say
To think I might not see those eyes
Makes it so hard not to cry
And as we say our long goodbye
I nearly do
Light up, light up
As if you have a choice
Even if you cannot hear my voice
I'll be right beside you, dear
Slower, slower
We don't have time for that
All I want is to find an easier way
To get out of our little heads
Have heart, my dear
We're bound to be afraid
Even if it's just for a few days
Making up for all this mess.We’ll meet again, but not yet…not yet.0 -

This generation
Rules the nation
With version
Music happen to be the food of love
Sounds to really make you rub and scrub
I say: Pass the Dutchie on the left hand side
Pass the Dutchie on the left hand side
It a gonna burn, give me music make me jump and prance
It a go done, give me the music make me rock in the dance
It was a cool and lovely breezy afternoon
(How does it feel when you've got no food ?)
You could feel it 'cause it was the month of June
(How does it feel when you've got no food ?)
So I left my gate and went out for a walk
(How does it feel when you've got no food ?)
As I pass the dreadlocks' camp I heard them say
(How does it feel when you've got no food ?)
Pass the Dutchie on the left hand side
Pass the Dutchie on the left hand side
It a gonna burn, give me music make me jump and prance
It a go done, give me the music make me rock in the dance
So I stopped to find out what was going on.
(How does it feel when you've got no food ?)
'Cause the spirit of Jah, you know he leads you on
(How does it feel when you've got no food ?)
There was a ring of dreads and a session was there in swing
(How does it feel when you've got no food ?)
You could feel the chill as I seen and heard them say
(How does it feel when you've got no food ?)
Pass the Dutchie on the left hand side
Pass the Dutchie on the left hand side
It a gonna burn, give me music make me jump and prance
It a go done, give me the music make me rock in the dance
'Cause me say listen to the drummer, me say listen to the bass
Give me little music make me wind up me waist
Me say listen to the drummer, me say listen to the bass
Give me little music make me wind up me waist, I say
Pass the Dutchie on the left hand side
Pass the Dutchie on the left hand side
It a gonna burn, give me music make me jump and prance
It a go done, give me the music make me rock in the dance
You play it on the radio, a so me say, we a go hear it on the stereo
A so me know you a go play it on the disco
A so me say we a go hear it on the stereo
Pass the Dutchie on the left hand side
Pass the Dutchie on the left hand side
It a gonna burn, give me music make me jump and prance
It a go done, give me the music make me rock in the dance
I say east, say west, say north and south (on the left hand side)
This is gonna make us jump and shout (on the left hand side)

How about Constellations?
The light was leaving
In the west it was blue
The children's laughter sang
And skipping just like the stones they threw
Their voices echoed across the way
Its getting late
It was just another night
With a sunset
And a moonrise not so far behind
To give us just enough light
To lay down underneath the stars
Listen to papas translations
Of the stories across the sky
We drew our own constellations
The west winds often last too long
The wind may calm down
Nothing ever feels the same
Sheltered under the Kamani tree
Waiting for the passing rain
Clouds keep moving to uncover the scene
Stars above us chasing the day away
To find the stories that we sometimes need
Listen close enough
All else fades
Fades away
It was just another night
With a sunset
And a moonrise not so far behind
To give us just enough light
To lay down underneath the stars
Listen to all the translations
Of the stories across the sky
We drew our own constellations&&&&&&&&&&&&&&0 -
sit on a train, reading a book.
same damn planet every time i look.
try to relax and slow my heartbeat
only works when i'm dead asleep.
been thinking and drinking all over the town
must be gearing up for some kind of melt-down
all i am is
a body floating down-wind
"what's wrong?"
"nothing."
"are you sure nothing's wrong?"
"yeah.."
"but you're sad about something."
"yeah...."
"so tell me what."
"i don't know.
i can't tell you.
i can't tell you...."
all i am is
a body floating down-wind
as the express train passes the local
it moves by just like a paper boat.
although it weighs a million pounds
i swear it almost seems to float.
and as we pass by each other
our heads all full of bother.
we can't look, we can't stop.
we can't think, we can't stop.
because we're stuck in our own paths.
and it's the way it always lasts.
but i need
something more
from you.......

Now the rainman gave me two cures
Then he said, “Jump right in”
The one was Texas medicine
The other was just railroad gin
An’ like a fool I mixed them
An’ it strangled up my mind
An’ now people just get uglier

This will take me a while
Because I miss your smile"I'm not present, I'm a drug that makes you dream"0 -
you,
make me feel,
like i'm okay.
i could be happy.
now i can stay,
not run away
stupidly laughing.
Wipe out all self-pity,
it's slowing me down.
Turn off feeling pretty,
dressing up dressing down.
I walk
around the city
out of my way,
looking for something.
I've got
all that i need
to save my day.
so why am i running?
You said i should get professional help,
it always makes me cry.
I know i'm just an amateur, but
i've gotta try.
I had
a birthday party
and it was packed.
got friends who love me.
We hung
a disco ball up
and watched the lights,
they were so lovely
You said i should get professional help,
it always makes me cry.
I know i'm just an amateur, but
i've gotta try.
i've gotta try...
When exactly are we?
i get the decades mixed up.
I like the streets when they're empty,
i can make the rest up.
i can make the rest up.
i can make the rest up.
I walk
around the city
out of my way,
looking for something.
I've got
all that i need
to save my day.
so why am i running?
You said i should get professional help,
it always makes me cry.
I know i'm just an amateur, but
i've gotta try.
Every day is new year's eve,
every night is the last night.
Every day is new year's eve,
every time is the last time.
You said i should get professional help,
it always makes me cry.
I know i'm just an amateur, but
i've gotta try.

Sit you down,
Sit you down young gentleman
There’s something I want you to know
You keep on asking me
You keep on asking me why
Why are we here?
It started a long time ago
Me and your mum on the night
Yeah, yeah, yeah – we met
I was on the road again
She was in C79
I’ll never, never forget
I’ll never forget that night – no
We met in a back road
Behind the stage
She had the best figure by far
A-huh! A thousand hours I’ve looked at her eyes, but
I still don’t know what colour they are
Me and your mum, on the night
Oh Lord! We met
I was on the road again
She was in C79
She was a junkie then
And I was having a good time
Back on the road again
Oh mama! I was on the road again
Back in sweet 79
I’ll never, never forget
I’ll never forget that time
Back on the road again
Oh I’m travelling that line
I was a pop star then
I’m still having a good timeCancel my subscription to the Ressurection

something in the way she moves....attracts me like no other
your asking me will our love grow, [i think soooo, iiiii think so.]
:0 -
Once a upon a time I did believe
in my true love that swept me off my feet,
the wind of change, swept him away
and left me drowning, in my own pain....
I don't know that I will ever love again,
it's a price that I must pay for all my sins,
time has changed me and left me full of doubt
and my heart may be lost... never to be found....
I don't know that I will ever trust again...*********************************************************************************************0 -

Pull my Heart Away
I'm ripping the posters off the wall
I'm moving the boxes into the hall
I stop when I hear a drumbeat call
Must be the sign, it is time....
I need to take myself away
From the pillowed hand on which I stand
And throw me out the side of a plane
And I'll just see where I land
I will have to pull my heart away
'Cause if I never leave I'll ruin yesterday
It's not like my feet are stuck to the floor
It's not like I'm wanting to nail down the door
I want you to throw my shoes in the fire
And I'll watch the soles burn on the funeral pyre
And I'm over and it and - change my position
And I'm knowing that nobody, nobody's listening
And that's easy for me and it's better for the soul
And it's better for you and it's better for all
I will have to pull my heart away
'Cause if I never leave I'll ruin yesterday
I will have to pull my heart away
'Cause if I never leave I'll ruin yesterday
I'm over with words, I'm moving in lines
And all that I heard is jump up inside, 'jump off the side'
I will have to pull my heart away
'Cause if I never leave I'll ruin yesterday
I will have to pull my heart away
'Cause if I never leave I'll ruin yesterday
I will have to pull my heart awayCancel my subscription to the Ressurection

I don't bleed any more 'cause my heart's been crushed...
and now I'm free - lucky me..
I'm gonna make today sugar-coated
I'm gonna get so high, I'm lying here on the floor
it's time these shoes of mine were fully loaded
It's time to sit back and smile...
I've had a smoke and it's been awhile, it's been awhile....*********************************************************************************************0 -
The Sundays
Folk Song
summer sky and a throat bone dry
and the fields are all gold
dusty lane with a song in my brain
and it stoned me to my soul
I climb higher move towards the fire.....blaze sun
silver trees and a whispering breeze
are my sight and my sound
the thought of heaven couldn't drag me from the path
when I'm wandering here alone
I climb higher move towards the fire.... so blaze sun
watch until it dies slow falling from the sky
pale fading sunCancel my subscription to the Ressurection

So close, no matter how far
couldn't be much more from the heart
forever trusting who we are
cause nothing else matters..
I never opened myself this way
life is ours, we do it our way
all these words, I just don't say
cause nothing else matters..
never cared for what they do
never cared for what they know
But, I know...
Trust I seek but I find in you
every day for us, something new
open mind for a different view..
cause nothing else matters.....Post edited by mikalina_old on*********************************************************************************************0 -
