    Climbing Up The Walls-Radiohead


    I am the key to the lock in your house
    That keeps your toys in the basement
    And if you get too far inside
    You'll only see my reflection

    It's always best when the light is off
    I am the pick in the ice
    Do not cry out or hit the alarm
    You know we're friends till we die

    And either way you turn
    I'll be there
    Open up your skull
    I'll be there
    Climbing up the walls

    It's always best when the light is off
    It's always better on the outside
    Fifteen blows to the back of your head
    Fifteen blows to your mind

    So lock the kids up safe tonight
    Put the eyes in the cupboard
    I've got the smell of a local man
    Who's got the loneliest feeling

    That either way he turns
    I'll be there
    Open up your skull
    I'll be there

    Climbing up the walls
    Climbing up the walls
    Climbing up the walls
    You men eat your dinner
    Eat your pork and beans
    I eat more chicken
    Than any man ever seen

    New Art Riot
    Author: Nicky Wire / Richey James

    Vintage aromas and vintage ideals
    Old men greying to a dying country's needs
    Waiting for a knighthood to while away the hours
    Listen and learn now it's time to kill your betters

    Museums are dead take a new art stance
    Paint mass suicide on the aspiration diktat

    Hospital closures kill more than car bombs ever will
    And it saves money because people are expendable
    Cold shoulder insurgents and love arms dealers
    Everybody's taking drugs because it makes governing easier

    Museums are dead take a new art stance
    Paint mass suicide on the aspiration diktat
    Sell out the past and learn to obey
    You spit out and douse a molotov cocktail

    Revolution soon dies, sold out for a pay rise
    China, Russia, England, all washed up in power abuse
    Terrorism is an excuse that the ruling class use
    Wipe out aristocracy now, kill, kill, kill, kill, kill

    England makes judgements of old school propaganda
    The only threat to heads are silenced by dumb pleasure
    Museums are dead take a new art stance
    Paint mass suicide on the aspiration diktat
    "so if i can shoot rabbits then i can shoot fascists"

    Country Feedback-REM


    This flower is scorched
    This film is on
    On a maddening loop.
    These clothes,
    These clothes don't fit us right
    I'm to blame
    It's all the same
    It's all the same

    You come to me with a bone in your hand
    You come to me with your hair curled tight
    You come to me with positions
    You come to me with excuses
    Ducked out in a row
    You wear me out
    You wear me out

    We've been through fake-a-breakdown
    Self hurt
    Plastics, collections
    Self help, self pain,
    EST, psychics, fuck all
    I was central
    I had control
    I lost my head
    I need this
    I need this
    A paper weight, junk garage
    Winter rain, a honey pot
    Crazy, all the lovers have been tagged.
    A hotline, a wanted ad
    It's crazy what you could've had
    It's crazy what you could've had
    It's crazy what you could've had
    I need this
    I need this
    You men eat your dinner
    Eat your pork and beans
    I eat more chicken
    Than any man ever seen

    It's not that I care
    (truly)
    But you're that girl
    (with sharp teeth)
    Who grabs at the walls
    (and pulls meat down)
    Well here's my new address
    6 6 4 oh
    I forget

    It's not like I care
    (truly)
    But you're that girl
    (with gold teeth)
    Who snaps at the walls
    (and won't calm down)
    Well here's my new address
    6 1 5 oh
    I forget

    There's all your evidence
    Now take it home, run with it
    Now write it down
    Did you get it?
    Well here's my new address
    6 6 5 oh
    I confess
    There's all your evidence
    Now take it home and have fun with it
    We’ll meet again, but not yet…not yet.

    Closedown-The Cure

    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
    You men eat your dinner
    Eat your pork and beans
    I eat more chicken
    Than any man ever seen

    The morning is dead and the day is too
    There's nothing left here to lead me, but the velvet moon
    All my loneliness I have felt today
    It's a little more than enough to make a man throw himself away
    And I continue to burn the Midnight Lamp, alone

    Now the smiling portrait of you
    is still hanging on my frowning wall
    It really doesn't, it really doesn't bother me too much at all
    It's just the eh ever falling dust that makes it so hard for me to see
    That forgotten earring laying on the floor
    Facing coldly towards the door
    And I continue to burn the Midnight Lamp, all alone
    Burn!
    Yeah, yeah
    Lonely, lonely, lonely
    Loneliness is such a drag!

    So here I sit to face that same old fireplace
    Getting ready for the same old explosion
    Going through my mind
    And soon enough the time will tell
    About the circus in the wishing well
    And someone who will buy and sell for me
    Someone who will toll my bell
    And I continue to burn the same old lamp, alone
    Yeah
    Darling, can you hear me calling you?
    So lonely
    Gotto blow my mind
    Yeah, yeah
    Lonely, lonely . . .

    Burning of the Midnight Lamp.

    It's So Easy-Guns & Roses

    I see your sister in her
    Sunday dress
    She's out to please
    She pouts her best
    She's out to take
    No need to try
    She's ready to make

    It's so easy, easy
    When everybody's tryin' to
    please me, baby
    It's so easy, easy
    When everybody's tryin' to
    please me

    Cars are crashin' every night
    I drink n' drive
    everything's in sight
    I make the fire
    But I miss the firefight
    I hit the bull's eye every night

    It's so easy, easy
    When everybody's tryin' to
    please me, baby
    Yeah it's so easy, easy
    When everybody's tryin' to please me
    So easy
    But nothin' seems to please me
    It all fits so right
    When I fade into the night
    See me hit you
    You fall down

    I see you standin' there
    You think you're so cool
    Why don't you just
    Fuck off

    Ya get nothin' for nothin'
    If that's what you do
    Turn around bitch I got a use for you
    Besides you ain't got nothin' better to do
    And I'm bored

    It's so easy, easy
    When everybody's tryin' to
    please me, baby
    It's so easy, easy
    When everybody's tryin' to please me
    So easy
    But nothin' seems to please me
    It all fits so right
    When I fade into the night
    So come with me
    Don't ask me where cause I don't know
    I'll try to please you
    I ain't got no money
    But it goes to show
    It's so easy
    You men eat your dinner
    Eat your pork and beans
    I eat more chicken
    Than any man ever seen

    lay down your arms and surrender to me
    oh lay down your arms and love me peacefully
    use your arms for squeezing and pleasing the one that loves you so
    oh there ain't no reason for you to declare war on the one who loves you so
    so forget the other boys because my love is real
    come off your battlefield
    lay down your arms and surrender to me
    yeah lay down your arms and love me peacefully
    use your arms for squeezing and pleasing that's the way it's got to be
    the welcomes you're using are hurting me bad
    but someday you're going to retreat
    cause my love baby is the truest you've ever had
    a soldier of love that's hard to beat
    lay down your arms and surrender to me
    lay down your arms and love me peacefully, yeah...
    use your arms to hold me tight...baby i don't wanna fight no more
    use your arms to hold me tight...baby i don't wanna fight no more
    oh baby, lay down your arms
    oh baby, lay down your arms
    oh baby, lay down your arms
    oh baby, lay down your arms
    please baby lay down your arms

    Me & A Gun-Tori Amos


    5am Friday morning Thursday night far from sleep
    I'm still up and driving can't go home obviously
    So I'll just change direction cause they'll soon know where I live
    And I wanna live
    Got a full tank and some chips


    It was me and a gun and a man on my back
    And I sang "holy holy" as he buttoned down his pants


    You can laugh
    Its kind of funny
    Things you think
    Times like these
    Like I haven't seen Barbados so I must get out of this


    Yes I wore a slinky red thing
    Does that mean I should spread for you,
    your friends
    Your father
    Mr Ed


    It was me and a gun and a man on my back
    But I haven't seen Barbados so I must get out of this


    And I know what this means
    Me and Jesus a few years back used to hang
    And he said "it's your choice babe just remember
    I don't hink you'll be back in 3 days time so you choose well"


    Tell me whats right
    Is it my right to be on my stomach
    of Fred's Seville


    It was me and a gun and a man on my back
    But I haven't seen Barbados so I must get out of this


    And do you know Carolina
    Where the biscuits are soft and sweet
    These things go through your head when there's a man on your back
    And you're pushed
    flat on your stomach
    it's not a classic Caddilac


    It was me and a gun and a man on my back
    But I haven't seen Barbados so I must get out of this
    I haven't seen Barbados so I must get out of this
    You men eat your dinner
    Eat your pork and beans
    I eat more chicken
    Than any man ever seen




  • Dreaming Of You - The Coral

    What's up with my heart when it skips a beat (skips a beat)
    Can't feel no pavement right under my feet (under my feet)

    Up in my lonely room
    When I'm dreaming of you
    Oh what can I do
    I still need you, but
    I don't want you now

    When I'm down and my hands are tied (hands are tied)
    I cannot reach a pen for me to draw the line (draw the line)
    From this pain I just can't disguise
    It's gonna hurt but I'll have to say goodbye

    Up in my lonely room
    When I'm dreaming of you
    Oh what can I do
    I still need you, but
    I don't want you now

    Oh yeah

    Ohhh Ohhhhh

    Up in my lonely room
    When I'm dreaming of you
    Oh what can I do
    I still need you, but
    I don't want you now
    I don't have to sell my soul, he's already in me

    If you've lost your faith in love and music the end won't be long

    Sister Morphine-Rolling Stones


    Here I lie in my hospital bed
    Tell me, Sister Morphine, when are you coming round again?
    Oh, I don't think I can wait that long
    Oh you see that I'm not that strong

    The scream of the ambulance is sounding in my ears
    Tell me, Sister Morphine, how long have I been lying here?
    What am I doing in this place?
    and why does the doctor have no face?

    Oh, I can't crawl across the floor
    Ah, Can't you see, Sister Morphine, I'm trying to score.

    Well it just goes to show,
    things are not what they seem.
    Please, Sister Morphine, turn my nightmares into dreams.
    Oh can't you see I'm fading fast?
    And that this shot will be my last.

    Sweet Cousin Cocaine, lay your cool cool hands on my head
    Ah come on, Sister Morphine, you better make up my bed
    'Cause you know and I know in the morning I'll be dead
    You can sit around and you can watch all the
    clean white sheets stained red.
    You men eat your dinner
    Eat your pork and beans
    I eat more chicken
    Than any man ever seen

    Someday they'll find your small town world on a big town avenue
    Gonna make you like the way they talk when they're talking to you
    Gonna make you break out of the shell cause they tell you to
    Gonna make you like the way they lie better than the truth
    They'll tell you everything you wanted someone else to say
    They're gonna break your heart, yeah

    From what I've seen
    You're just one more hand me down
    'Cause no one's tried to give you what you need
    So lay all your troubles down
    I am with you now

    Somebody ought to take you in
    Try to make you love again
    Try to make you like the way they feel
    When they're under your skin
    Never once did think they'd lie when they're holding you
    You wonder why they haven't called
    When they said they'd call you
    You start to wonder if you're ever gonna make it by
    You'll start to think you were born blind

    From what I've seen
    You're just one more hand me down
    'Cause no one's tried to give you what you need
    So lay all your troubles down
    I am with you now

    I'm here for the hard times
    The straight to your heart times
    Whenever it ain't easy
    You can stand up against me
    And maybe rely on me
    And cry on me, yeah
    Oh no, no, no

    Some day they'll open up your world
    Shake it down on a drawing board
    Do their best to change you
    They still can't erase you

    From what I've seen
    You're just one more hand me down
    'Cause no one's tried to give you what you need
    So lay all your troubles down
    I am with you now

    Lay them down on me
    Oh yeah
    You're just one more hand me down
    And all those nots don't give you what you need
    So lay all your troubles down, on me.
    We’ll meet again, but not yet…not yet.

    Come Pick Me Up-Ryan Adams

    When they call your name
    will you walk right up
    with a smile on your face?
    Or will you cower in fear
    in your favorite sweater
    with an old love letter?
    I wish you would
    I wish you would
    Come pick me up
    Take me out
    Fuck me up
    Steal my records
    Screw all my friends
    They're all full of shit
    With a smile on your face
    And then do it again
    I wish you would
    When you're walking downtown
    do you wish I was there?
    Do you wish it was me?
    With the windows clear and the mannequins eyes
    Do they all look like mine?
    You know you could
    I wish you would
    Come pick me up
    Take me out
    Fuck me up
    Steal my records
    Screw all my friends behind my back
    With a smile on your face
    and then do it again
    I wish you would
    I wish you'd make up my bed
    So I could make up my mind
    Try it for sleeping instead
    Maybe you'll rest sometime
    I wish I could
    You men eat your dinner
    Eat your pork and beans
    I eat more chicken
    Than any man ever seen

    Paint a picture, forty shades of gray
    light your pillow, lay back, watch the flames
    I'll tell a story, no one would listen that long
    it's hard to imagine, it's hard to imagine...
    fuck tradition, no one's safe from harm
    wait a little, cup and curse these arms
    after having seen all that they saw
    it's hard to imagine, it's hard to imagine...
    things were different then, all is different now
    I tried to explain, some how...
    things were different then, all is different now
    I tried to explain, some how...
    things were different then, all is different now
    I tried to explain, I hope this works somehow...
    things were different then, all is different now
    I tried to explain, oh, somehow...
    ooh...oh...oh...

    Don't even think about reachin' me, I won't be home
    don't even think about stoppin' by, don't think of me at all
    I did, what I had to do, if there was a reason, it was you...
    aah...don't even think about gettin' inside
    voices in my head...ooh, voices
    I got scratches, all over my arms
    one for each day, since I fell apart
    I did...oh, what I had to do, if there was a reason, it was you
    footsteps in the hall, it was you, you...oh...
    pictures on my chest, it was you, it was you...
    hey...I did, what I had to do...oh, and if there was a reason
    oh, there wasn't no reason, no
    and if, there's something you'd like to do
    just let me continue, to blame you
    footsteps in the hall, it was you, you...oh...
    pictures on my chest, it was you, you...oh...

    That was my heart when time was a seed,
    Tell me what it means
    We made it out okay, but soon it turned to dust
    Tell me what it means?

    Cut it out; get off the floor,
    Because it doesn't make you matter more.
    Veda very shining and who will you wait up for?
    Life, love, heaven, death
    Is that what makes you such a mess?

    Veda very shining

    At the well and out of luck you said:
    "I've had enough"
    Still you couldn't make a man out of me,
    Is that such a bad disease?

    Just cut it out, and get off the floor
    Because it doesn't make you matter more
    Veda very shining and who will you wait up for?
    Life, love, heaven, death:
    I that what makes you such a mess?

    Veda very shining...

    You're not real and yet you seem familiar
    Is that what you want
    You're not real and yet you seem familiar
    Is that what you want...?

    That was my heart when time was a seed...
    Tell me what it means

    Cut it out; get off the floor,
    Because it doesn't make you matter more.
    Veda very shining and who will you wait up for?
    Life, love, heaven, death
    Is that what makes you such a mess?

    Veda very shining...

    Well I'm finding it harder
    to be a gentleman every day
    All the manners that I've been taught
    have slowly died away
    But if I held the door open for you
    it would make your day

    You think that I care
    about me and only me
    When every single girl needs help
    climbing up a tree
    Well I know it don't take much
    to satisfy me

    Maybe it's whatever's in my mind
    that's distracting me
    But if I could find emotion
    to stimulate devotion
    Well then you'd see

    Well I'm finding it hard to say
    that I need you twenty times a day
    I feel comfortable so baby why
    don't you feel the same?
    Have a doctor come and visit us
    and tell us which one is sane

    Well I never said I wouldn't
    throw my jacket in the mud for you
    But my father gave it to me so
    maybe I should carry you
    Then you said,
    "You almost dropped me"
    So then I did
    and I got mud on my shoes
    We’ll meet again, but not yet…not yet.

    it's not the same without you up here
    can't find my wheels
    your absence is what breeds this fear
    warm breath and all it steals
    you can't know how it feels to be in here
    all the dark horse fields, befriendin' me
    playin' ain't the same without you here
    we've come to hate the golden rule
    cannot seem to make the dots connect
    the morning light don't show you near
    you can't know what it's like to bleed from here
    the blackened world goes white, it goes nowhere
    oooh hoo..
    death ain't the same without you, dear
    i make the others run and hide
    new york streets seem to make it worse
    all this noise inside the quiet
    i can't hold on, the weight you bear
    my body's broken fast, please lift me up
    you can't know what it's like to be inside
    your fading melodies can't beat my need
    i'm not the same without you here
    how can i quit to be there
    sit and stare
    stare..
    begging for a prayer
    I know someday you will have a beautiful Life

  • Pearl Jam Fatal lyrics:

    How good is he?
    how warm are his eyes
    you'll see it's not a reprise
    there he arrived
    too late and too tethered away
    to put on his suit and his tie

    how good is he?
    how warm is his heart
    or ego telling him which place to park
    did he relate, the message is clearly hardly
    grounds for dismissal outright
    grounds for dismissal outright

    i wake up and wait up
    when anger's in fashion
    i wake up and wait up
    it echoes through the mansions
    i wake up and wait up
    when april's in may, oh uh oh
    i wake up and wait up
    the answers are fatal
    the answers are fatal

    when i wait up and wake up
    the answers are fatal

    if he's truly out of sight
    is he truly out of mind?
    if he's truly out of sight..
    Seems that needlessly it's getting harder
    To find an approach and a way to live
    Are we getting something out of this
    all-encompassing trip?

    Chris Cornell - Seasons

    Summer nights and long warm days
    Are stolen as the old moon falls
    My mirror shows another face
    Another place to hide it all
    Another place to hide it all

    And I'm lost, behind
    The words I'll never find
    And I'm left behind
    As seasons roll on by

    Sleeping with a full moon blanket
    Sand and feathers for my head
    Dreams have never been the answer
    And dreams have never made my bed
    Dreams have never made my bed

    And I'm lost, behind
    The words I'll never find
    And I'm left behind
    As seasons roll on by

    Now I wanna fly above the storm
    But you can't grow feathers in the rain
    And the naked floor is cold as hell
    This naked floor reminds me
    Oh the naked floor reminds me

    And I'm lost, behind
    Words I'll never find
    And I'm left behind
    As seasons roll on by

    If I should be short on words
    And long on things to say
    Could you crawl into my world
    And take me worlds away
    Should I be beside myself
    And not even stay

    And I'm lost, behind
    Words I'll never find
    And I'm left behind
    As seasons roll on by
    It makes much more sense to live in the present tense...
