The random lyrics post

Hold on to the thread
The currents will shift
Glide me towards you
Know something's left
And we're all allowed
To dream of the next time we touch

You don't have to stray
The oceans away
Waves roll in my thoughts
Hold tight the ring
The sea will rise
Please stand by the shore
I wil be, I will be there once more.

Today is gonna be the day
That they're gonna throw it back to you
By now you should've somehow
Realized what you gotta do
I don't believe that anybody
Feels the way I do about you now

Backbeat the word was on the street
That the fire in your heart is out
I'm sure you've heard it all before
But you never really had a doubt
I don't believe that anybody feels
The way I do about you now

And all the roads we have to walk along are winding
And all the lights that lead us there are blinding
There are many things
That I would like to say to you
I don't know how

Because maybe
You're gonna be the one who saves me
And after all
You're my wonderwall

Today was gonna be the day
But they'll never throw it back to you
By now you should've somehow
Realized what you're not to do
I don't believe that anybody
Feels the way I do
About you now

And all the roads that lead to you were winding
And all the lights that light the way are blinding
There are many things that I would like to say to you
I don't know how

I said maybe
You're gonna be the one who saves me
And after all
You're my wonderwall

I said maybe
You're gonna be the one who saves me
And after an
You're my wonderwall

Said maybe
You're gonna be the one that saves me
You're gonna be the one that saves me
You're gonna be the one that saves me


Wonderwall ~ Oasis

Pots and pans are indestructible
How do you respect your room?
If you hadn’t gone tomorrow
You could have stayed on until June

It’s alright if I was older
It’s ok to lose your age
And I, want to follow you
I do, I do

It’s another I could trust you
It’s another thing to swear
I’m ok with all the others
It’s just her I cannot stand
I’m old enough to feel the way I do
And I know that you are true
It’s just a part of my genes

And I want you to know
It’s hard to wait on
I’ll swallow you whole

I'm kindly in the next room
And you have stayed
A mile away from me
And you will stay a mile away from me
If you know what’s good for you
You could have stayed until June

And I want you to know
It’s hard to wait on
I’ll swallow you whole

I'm kindly in the next room
And you have stayed
A mile away from me
And you will stay a mile away from me
If you know what’s good for you
You could have stayed until June


June ~ Pete Yorn

That's a great song.

She don't want nobody near
But you can't get away from that
They appear and disappear
And they all get a string attached
Pretty soon they've got you hanging on a line
Pretty soon they're singing one by one
The same old rhyme
They say, 'I'm alright, I just can't get home tonight'

She don't want nobody home
'Cause it's a little too crowded then
But she don't want to be alone
So they just keep pouring in
Pretty soon they've got her headed for the door
She comes home to find they're not hanging around no more
She says, 'I'm alright, you just can't get home tonight'
Don't you wonder what she looks like in the light?
She says, 'I'm alright, I just can't get home tonight'

Pretty whitewashed lies
Endless alibis
And reasons that need cleaning every night
Half a world away
You can't wash away the stain of the deceiving
And the things that you cannot believe and well...

She don't want no one around
'Cause she don't want anybody to see
What she looks like when she's down
'Cause that's a really sad place to be
Pretty soon she gets them crawling up the walls
Then she wonders why they beg her please to never call
She says, 'I'm ok. It's alright. Hey look who's on tv tonight.'
She says, 'I'm alright, I just can't get home tonight.'
Don't you wonder why it's dark outside at night?
She says, 'I'm alright, I just can't get home tonight.'


She Don't Want Nobody Near ~ Counting Crows

to me this song is about the struggle of the underdog or the outcast.


Fallen Down
by Warren Haynes


Bigelow the gigolo had no where else to go
His sad eyes had seen it all
Scarred and lonely, tough as nails
Open your heart when all else fails
Wear the veil and the trojan horse smile

Looking back on yesteryear
Seems like, maybe, you missed your calling
But hindsight is very clear when loneliness is falling

And you have fallen down, down from the heavens
Stuck out in the desert
Amazing grace - such a lonely place
For heroes like you and me
Fallen down, just like a shooting star
With no fallen angel standing by
To carry you away

Target practice with other people's lives
Hit a few right between the eyes
But, most of the time, you were wounded by the ricochet
You say play to win, boys, never play to lose
Long as your playing, boy, you're bullet-proof?
But think about it - you're bleeding to death anyway

And you have fallen down, down from the heavens
Stuck out in the desert
Amazing grace - such a lonely place
For heroes like you and me
Fallen down, just like a shooting star
With no fallen angel standing by

Angel of mercy, take pity on a fool
That spent a lifetime wondering
What Napoleon would do
If he were in your shoes

Rich, without pleasure - respected without love
Drinking poison from a golden cup
While anger, brother of fear, creeps like a knife into your heart

Looking back on yesteryear
Seems like, maybe, you missed your calling
But hindsight is very clear when loneliness is falling
And destiny's through calling

And you have fallen down - fallen down
Amazing grace - it's such a lonely place
Oh yes it is
Fallen down
Fallen down

Fallen down
Fallen down
Fallen down

The clothesline of cold eyes
Is washing away the face before
Now tell me what's wrong you see everyone's gone
You gotta do your best to decorate this dying' day
This dying' day

All over a bowl of bitter beans

And outside way, way up high I got a quarter moon misthanging' over me
And now, I want that rocking chair outta there
Cause he's no longer living here
It's no longer needed here

All over a bowl of bitter beans

And I got a corner store and that's all the more
For me to praise upon the holidays
And now I'll close my eyes really, really tight
And make you all go away,
I'll make you all go all go away

And I'll pull the trigger and make it all go away
And I'll make it all go away, I'll make it all go away

I knew how it felt to be another one in need
Of someone to show the way
Until you saw a part of me
That nobody else could see
And my life hasn't been the same

You make me feel lucky as I can be
You make me feel lucky as I can be

Before I couldn't get a break
Never had a chance to make
The impressions I want to
But now it falls right into place
When I get to see your face
Then there's nothing that I can't do

You make me feel lucky as I can be
You make me feel lucky as I can be

No more dark days
Only sun rays
No more hard ways with you today

You make me feel....

You make me feel lucky as I can be
You make me feel lucky as I can be


Lucky ~ Hoobastank

Head underwater
Keeps getting harder
Give 'em your medicine
Fame injection

Tell him to jump higher
Tell him to run farther
Make him measure up
Decades longer than you

Piece it together
It's like weather
Watch him travel
Kiss the gravel

Tell him to jump higher
Tell him to run farther
Make him measure up
Ten times longer than you ever should
You never could explain them to me
Explain them to me



Explain It To Me ~ Liz Phair

Routine was the theme, she'd wake up and...wash and pour herself into uniform
something she hadn't imagined being...
as the merging traffic passed, she found herself staring, down, at her own hands..
not remembering the change, not recalling the plan, was it...?
she was okay, but wondering about wandering
was it age? by consequence? or was she moved by sleight of hand?
mondays were made to fall, lost on a road she knew by heart
it was like a book she read in her sleep, endlessly...
sometimes she hid in her radio, watching others pull into their homes
while she was drifting...
on a line, of her own, off the line, on the side
by the by, as dirt turned to sand, as if moved by sleight of hand
when she reached the shore of her clip-on world
she resurfaced to the norm
organized her few things, her coat and keys...
any new realizations would have to wait till she had more time, more time...
time to dream, to herself
she waves goodbye, to herself
i'll see you on the other side...
another woman...moved by sleight of hand...
