    Theres a shadow just behind me. shrouding every step I take.
    Making every promise empty. pointing every finger at me.
    Waiting like a stalking butler, who upon the finger rests.
    Murder now the path of must we, just because the son has come.

    Jesus, wont you fucking whistle. something but the past and done.

    Why cant we not be sober? I just want to start this over.
    Why cant we drink forever? I just want to start this over.

    I am just a worthless liar. I am just an imbecile.
    I will only complicate you. trust in me and fall as well.
    I will find a center in you. I will chew it up and leave.
    I will work to elevate you, just enough to bring you down.

    Mother mary, wont you whisper. something but the past is done.

    Why cant we not be sober? I just want to start this over.
    Why cant we sleep forever? I just want to start this over.

    I am just a worthless liar. I am just an imbecile.
    I will only complicate you. trust in me and fall as well.
    I will find a center in you. I will chew it up and leave.
    Trust me. trust me. trust me. trust me. trust me.

    Why cant we not be sober. I just want to start things over.
    Why cant we sleep forever. I just want to start this over.

    I want what I want...
    I want what I want...
    I want what I want...
    I want what I want...
    NOPE!!!

    Tool - Lateralus

    Black then white are all I see in my infancy.
    red and yellow then came to be, reaching out to me.
    lets me see.
    As below, so above and beyond, I imagine
    drawn beyond the lines of reason.
    Push the envelope. Watch it bend.

    Over thinking, over analyzing separates the body from the mind.
    Withering my intuition, missing opportunities and I must
    Feed my will to feel my moment drawing way outside the lines.

    Black then white are all I see in my infancy.
    red and yellow then came to be, reaching out to me.
    lets me see there is so much more
    and beckons me to look through to these infinite possibilities.
    As below, so above and beyond, I imagine
    drawn outside the lines of reason.
    Push the envelope. Watch it bend.

    Over thinking, over analyzing separates the body from the mind.
    Withering my intuition leaving all these opportunities behind.

    Feed my will to feel this moment urging me to cross the line.
    Reaching out to embrace the random.
    Reaching out to embrace whatever may come.

    I embrace my desire to
    feel the rhythm, to feel connected
    enough to step aside and weep like a widow
    to feel inspired, to fathom the power,
    to witness the beauty, to bathe in the fountain,
    to swing on the spiral
    of our divinity and still be a human.

    With my feet upon the ground I lose myself
    between the sounds and open wide to suck it in,
    I feel it move across my skin.
    I'm reaching up and reaching out,
    I'm reaching for the random or what ever will bewilder me.
    And following our will and wind we may just go where no one's been.
    We'll ride the spiral to the end and may just go where no one's been.

    Spiral out. Keep going, going...

    Sorry to crash the Tool party going on here, but this just came up on my iPod and I was reminded what a tremendous song it is.

    Overhead the albatross hangs motionless upon the air
    And deep beneath the rolling waves in labyrinths of coral caves
    The echo of a distant tide
    Comes willowing across the sand
    And everything is green and submarine
    And no one showed us to the land
    And no one knows the wheres or whys
    But something stares and
    Something tries
    And starts to climb towards the light

    Strangers passing in the street
    By chance two separate glances meet
    And I am you and what I see is me
    And do I take you by the hand
    And lead you through the land
    And help me understand the best I can
    And no one calls us to the land
    And no one crosses there alive
    And no one speaks
    And no one tries
    And no one flies around the sun

    And now this is the day you fall
    Upon my waking eyes
    Inviting and inciting me to rise
    And through the window in the wall
    Comes streamin in on sunlight wings
    A million bright ambassadors of morning
    And no one sings me lullabies
    And no one makes me close my eyes
    So I throw the windows wide

    One of my favorite songs ever



    So, so you think you can tell
    Heaven from Hell,
    Blue skys from pain.
    Can you tell a green field
    From a cold steel rail?
    A smile from a veil?
    Do you think you can tell?

    And did they get you to trade
    Your heros for ghosts?
    Hot ashes for trees?
    Hot air for a cool breeze?
    Cold comfort for change?
    And did you exchange
    A walk on part in the war
    For a lead role in a cage?

    How I wish, how I wish you were here.
    We're just two lost souls
    Swimming in a fish bowl,
    Year after year,
    Running over the same old ground.
    What have we found?
    The same old fears.
    Wish you were here.

    nice pick! i have a nice version, i think it was Boeblingen, Germany 11/15/72 that has a slightly different middle section <the solo part>, it was introduced as "Looking Through The Knotholes In Grannys Wooden Leg" :D

    http://geocities.com/cpl_clegg76/PinkFloyd.html

    and another floyd

    If I were a swan, I'd be gone.
    If I were a train, I'd be late.
    And if I were a good man,
    I'd talk with you
    More often than I do.

    If I were to sleep, I could dream.
    If I were afraid, I could hide.
    If I go insane, please don't put
    Your wires in my brain.

    If I were the moon, I'd be cool.
    If I were a book, I would bend for you.
    If I were a good man, I'd understand
    The spaces between friends.

    If I were alone, I would cry.
    And if I were with you, I'd be home and dry.
    And if I go insane,
    And they lock me away,
    Will you still let me join in the game?

    If I were a swan, I'd be gone.
    If I were a train, I'd be late again.
    If I were a good man,
    I'd talk with you
    More often than I do.
    standin above the crowd
    he had a voice that was strong and loud and
    i swallowed his facade cos i'm so
    eager to identify with
    someone above the crowd
    someone who seemed to feel the same
    someone prepared to lead the way

    Please insert UN before each comfortably and we have the perfect song for me. :)

    Hello.
    Is there anybody in there?
    Just nod if you can hear me.
    Is there anyone home?

    Come on, now.
    I hear you're feeling down.
    Well I can ease your pain,
    Get you on your feet again.

    Relax.
    I need some information first.
    Just the basic facts:
    Can you show me where it hurts?

    There is no pain, you are receding.
    A distant ships smoke on the horizon.
    You are only coming through in waves.
    Your lips move but I cant hear what you're sayin.
    When I was a child I had a fever.
    My hands felt just like two balloons.
    Now I got that feeling once again.
    I can't explain, you would not understand.
    This is not how I am.
    I have become comfortably numb.

    Ok.
    Just a little pinprick. [ping]
    There'll be no more --aaaaaahhhhh!
    But you may feel a little sick.

    Can you stand up?
    I do believe its working. good.
    That'll keep you going for the show.
    Come on its time to go.

    There is no pain, you are receding.
    A distant ships smoke on the horizon.
    You are only coming through in waves.
    Your lips move but I cant hear what you're sayin.
    When I was a child I caught a fleeting glimpse,
    Out of the corner of my eye.
    I turned to look but it was gone.
    I cannot put my finger on it now.
    The child is grown, the dream is gone.
    I have become comfortably numb.
    NOPE!!!

    Shine on You crazy Diamond

    Remember when you were young,
    You shone like the sun.
    Shine on you crazy diamond.
    Now there's a look in your eyes,
    Like black holes in the sky.
    Shine on you crazy diamond.
    You were caught on the crossfire
    Of childhood and stardom,
    Blown on the steel breeze.
    Come on you target for faraway laughter,
    Come on you stranger, you legend, you martyr, and shine!

    You reached for the secret too soon,
    You cried for the moon.
    Shine on you crazy diamond.
    Threatened by shadows at night,
    And exposed in the light.
    Shine on you crazy diamond.
    Well you wore out your welcome
    With random precision,
    Rode on the steel breeze.
    Come on you raver, you seer of visions,
    Come on you painter, you piper, you prisoner, and shine!

    Nobody knows where you are,
    How near or how far.
    Shine on you crazy diamond.
    Pile on many more layers
    And I'll be joining you there.
    Shine on you crazy diamond.
    And we'll bask in the shadow
    Of yesterday's triumph,
    And sail on the steel breeze.
    Come on you boy child,
    You winner and loser,
    Come on you miner for truth and delusion, and shine!
    standin above the crowd
    he had a voice that was strong and loud and
    i swallowed his facade cos i'm so
    eager to identify with
    someone above the crowd
    someone who seemed to feel the same
    someone prepared to lead the way
