the moody thread

What say you, Lord
For the olive boys down in the house of corrections
As they try for love and any form of ascension
Am I on the right train headed in the wrong direction
What say you, Lord
What say you, Lord

Am I living wrong
Do you see a long road with no one on it
And the right of men that you learnt only to forget
You see my sad wife and my high margin of profit
But you don't care at all
You don't care
At all

What say you, Lord
Now that they're breeding all our animals insane
And the remedy is growing harder to obtain
There's a white horse running wild through the switch-cane
I can hear him now
And I fear him

'Til Kingdom come
Caught in this frenzy of elimination
Such an irreparable disintegration
My body's twitching with a ready expectation
For Kingdom come
My Kingdom
Come

What say you, Lord
Why is the truth of this so hard to unveil?
Though it's true I never knew what this would entail
From the hands of Christ to the heads of the Daily Mail
I'll see you all
And I'll raise you

Lord

Now what say you, all
I wonder when the light is brought up for sale
With the weight of love and the grace of the Baleen Whale
Will the severed Heads of State be at all curtailed
Will they be here at all -
Will they be dead and gone?

What say you Lord
Of the serpent-taled, forbidden fish of the harbours
And the ready-men, defiant drinkers and charmers
All lost and summoning the face of their fathers
Can you see thm now?
I can see 'em

What say you, all
Do I believe it if I do not want it
Do I lie alone and keeps my cold hands off it
Honey, it ain't hard to loose your grip in the midst of all of this
But it ain't far to fall
It's not far at all

Pain
What

Waiting for the seven eighteen
January is endless
Weary-eyed and forlorn
The Northern Line is the loudest

Sitting in silence in bars after work
I've got nothing to add or contest
Can still kick a ball a hundred yards
We cling to bottles and memories of the past

(Give me moments)
Just give me moments (give me moments)
Not hours or days (give me moments)
Just give me moments (give me moments)

Grinding your teeth in the middle of the night
With the sadness of those molars
Spend all your spare time trying to escape
With crosswords and sudoku

If I could do it again
I'd make more mistakes
I'd not be so scared of falling

If I could do it again,
I'd climb more trees
I'd pick and I'd more wild
blackberries

(Give me moments)
Just give me moments (give me moments)
Not hours or days (give me moments)
Just give me moments (give me moments)

Let's drive to Brighton on the weekend [x4]

The heart is a bloom
Shoots up through the stony ground
There's no room
No space to rent in this town

You're out of luck
And the reason that you had to care
The traffic is stuck
And you're not moving anywhere

You thought you'd found a friend
To take you out of this place
Someone you could lend a hand
In return for grace

It's a beautiful day
Sky falls, you feel like
It's a beautiful day
Don't let it get away

You're on the road
But you've got no destination
You're in the mud
In the maze of your imagination

You love this town
Even if that doesn't ring true
You've been all over
And it's been all over you

It's a beautiful day
Don't let it get away
It's a beautiful day

Touch me
Take me to that other place
Teach me
I know I'm not a hopeless case

See the world in green and blue
See China right in front of you
See the canyons broken by cloud
See the tuna fleets clearing the sea out
See the Bedouin fires at night
See the oil fields at first light
And see the bird with a leaf in her mouth
After the flood all the colors came out

It was a beautiful day
Don't let it get away
Beautiful day

Touch me
Take me to that other place
Reach me
I know I'm not a hopeless case

What you don't have, you don't need it now
What you don't know, you can feel it somehow
What you don't have, you don't need it now
Don't need it now
It's a beautiful day.

the selfish, they're all standing in line
faithing and hoping to buy themselves time
me, i figure, as each breath goes by
i only own my mind
the north is to south what the clock is to time
there's east and there's west and there's everywhere life
i know i was born and i know that i'll die
the in-between is mine
i am mine
and the feeling, it gets left behind
all the innocence lost at one time
significant behind the eyes
there's no need to hide
we're safe tonight
the ocean is full cuz everyone's crying
the full moon is looking for friends at high tide
the sorrow grows bigger when the sorrow's denied
i only know my mind
i am mine
and the meaning, it gets left behind
all the innocents lost at one time
significant behind the eyes
there's no need to hide
we're safe tonight
whoa!
and the feelings that get left behind
all the innocence broken with lies
significance between the lines
we may need to hide...
and the meanings that get left behind
all the innocents lost at one time
we're all different behind the eyes
there's no need to hide

On the last wave of summer
I lost my soul to you

The last wave of summer
I lost it all to you

Every thing has a time
This I know is true

I could live forever
This perfect day with you

There's a cold winter comin'
I can feel the change

It's the last wave of summer
We'll ever see again

Lets ride...


There's a cold winter coming
Can you feel the change

It's the last wave of summer
We'll ever see again

She took the best days of her life
She put the story in her mind
She found a place to hide all locked in herself
When she's there she's far away and no one can tell
What is written in her eyes

In her world she feels alive
With all the things that make her thrive
She found a way to capture all of her fears
When she's down she's far away then one comes near

You took the best days of her life
You broke her will and stole her pride
With all the hurt you left her burning of guilt
You became a part of her and no one can see
What is hidden in her eyes

She was never in control
All this time she's trying to pretend
But when the lights went on again
She was trying to hide
Everything inside
No one ever knew just how she died

She took the best days of her life (staring at the sun)
She left the best part in her eyes (staring at the sun)
She took the best days of her life (staring at the sun)
She left the best part in her eyes (staring at the sun)
She took the best days of her life (staring at the sun)

Hey man, please don't make a sound
Take a look around, can't you see what's right in front of you
Have a little taste, no more time to waste
You don't wanna get left behind cause it's all coming down right now

How hard is it to see
Put your faith in me
'Cause you wouldn't want to be nailed
To the wrong piece of wood
You should get where you belong
Everything you know is wrong
Come on, sing along, everybody now

God given

And they gave us sight
And you'll see the light
And it burned so bright
Now you know we're right

And the work we've done
We've just begun
We're the chosen ones

Hey, step into the light
How can this be right?
I'm in front of you
Now ask me to
This you cannot win
With the color of your skin
You won't be getting into the Promised Land
It's just another case
Still don't know your place
Step aside, look away, wipe that look of your face
Defiance
Raining from the sky

Come on, sing along, everybody now
God given

And they gave us sight
And you'll see the light
And it burned so bright
Now you know we're right

And the work we've done
We've just begun
We're the chosen ones

~Flyleaf~

Thank you for being such a friend to me
Oh I pray a friend for life,
And have I ever told you how much you mean to me?
Oh you're everything to me
Thinking all the time how to tell you what I feel,
Contemplating phrases....I'm gazing at eternity,
I am floating in serenity...

And I am so lost for words
And I am so overwhelmed

Please don't leave just yet
Can you stay a moment please
We can dance together
We can dance forever

Under your stars tonight
We'll live and breathe this dream

So close your eyes, but don't dream too deep
And please pass me some memories
And when I fall you're underneath
1000 broken hearts, carried by 1000 broken wings

Wise men say only fools rush in
But I cant help falling in love with you
Shall I stay
Would it be a sin
If I cant help falling in love with you

Like a river flows surely to the sea
Darling so it goes
Some things are meant to be
Take my hand, take my whole life too
For I cant help falling in love with you

Like a river flows surely to the sea
Darling so it goes
Some things are meant to be
Take my hand, take my whole life too
For I cant help falling in love with you
For I cant help falling in love with you
