    i have not been home since you left long ago
    i'm thumbing my way back to heaven
    counting steps, walking backwards on the road
    i'm counting my way back to heaven
    i can't be free with what's locked inside of me
    if there was a key, you took it in your hand
    there's no wrong or right, but i'm sure there's good and bad
    the questions linger overhead
    no matter how cold the winter, there's a springtime ahead
    i'm thumbing my way back to heaven
    i wish that i could hold you
    i wish that i had
    thinking 'bout heaven
    i let go of a rope, thinking that's what held me back
    and in time i've realized, it's now wrapped around my neck
    i can't see what's next, from this lonely overpass
    hang my head and count my steps, as another car goes past
    all the rusted signs we ignore throughout our lives
    choosing the shiny ones instead
    i turned my back, now there's no turning back
    no matter how cold the winter, there's a springtime ahead
    i smile, but who am i kidding?
    i'm just walking the miles, every once in a while i'll get a ride
    i'm thumbing my way back to heaven
    thumbing my way back to heaven
    i'm thumbing my way back to heaven...
    You ask me to enter
    But then You make me crawl
    And I can't be holding on
    To what You got
    When all You've got is hurt
    ----
    Underneath this smile lies everything
    All my hopes and anger, pride and shame

    got a car...i got some gas
    oh, let's get out of here...get out of here fast
    ah, everyone's confused so i stay in my room
    if i go, i don't want to go alone
    i hope you got this message...oh, you're not home
    i could be there in ten minutes, or so
    oh, i got my things
    we'll make it up as we go along
    oh, with you i could never be alone
    never be alone
    believe it or not, we don't "need" anything. that is only the spoiled brat in us trying to fill some temporary solution to an emptyness that does not exist.

    I need someone
    A person to talk to
    Someone who'd care to love
    Could it be you?
    Could it be you?
    Situation gets rough then I start to panic
    It's not enough it's just a habit
    Hey kid, you're sick
    Well darling, this is it

    You can all just kiss off into the air
    Behind my back, I can see them stare
    They'll hurt me bad, but I won't mind
    They'll hurt me bad, they do it all the time
    Yeah yeah they do it all the time

    I hope you know this will go down
    On your permanent record
    Oh yeah, well don't get so distressed
    Did I happen to mention that I'm impressed?

    I take one one one 'cause you left me and
    2 2 2 for my family and
    3 3 3 for my heartache and
    4 4 4 for my headaches and
    5 5 5 for my lonliness
    6 6 6 for my sorrow and
    7 7 for no tomorrow and
    8 8 I forget what 8 was for and
    9 9 9 for a lost God and
    10 10 10 10 for everything
    Everything, everything, everything

    You can all just kiss off into the air
    Behind my back, I can see them stare
    They'll hurt me bad, but I won't mind
    They'll hurt me bad, they do it all the time
    Yeah yeah they do it all the time
    Fuck them.
    We’ll meet again, but not yet…not yet.

    Love To Be Loved
    Peter Gabriel

    [Aaaaahi, byeeee]

    So, you know how people are
    When it's all gone much too far
    The way their minds are made
    Still, there's something you should know
    That I could not let show
    That fear of letting go

    And in this moment, I need to be needed
    With this darkness all around me, I like to be liked
    In this emptiness and fear, I want to be wanted
    'Cause I love to be loved
    I love to be loved [x2]
    Yes, I love to be loved

    I cry the way that babies cry
    The way they can't deny
    The way they feel
    Words, they climb all over you
    'Til they uncover you
    From where you hide

    And in this moment, I need to be needed
    When my self-esteem is sinking, I like to be liked
    In this emptiness and fear,
    I want to be wanted
    'Cause I love to be loved
    I love to be loved [x2]
    Oh I love to be loved

    This old familiar craving
    I've been here before, this way of behaving
    Don't know who the hell I'm saving anymore
    Let it pass let it go let it leave
    From the deepest place I grieve
    This time I believe

    And I let go [x2]
    I can let go of it
    Though it takes all the strength in me
    And all the world can see
    I'm losing such a central part of me
    I can let go of it
    You know I mean it
    You know that I mean it
    I recognize how much I've lost
    But I cannot face the cost
    'Cause I love to be loved

    Yes I love to be loved
    I love to be loved
    [x3]

    I love to be loved
    I love to be loved
    Yes I love to be loved
    Stay with me...
    Let's just breathe...


    I am myself like you somehow


  • I want to live where soul meets body,
    And let the sun wrap its arms around me,
    And bathe my skin in water cool and cleansing,
    And feel, feel what it's like to be new,
    'Cause in my head there's a Greyhound station,
    Where I send my thoughts to far-off destinations.
    So they may have a chance of finding a place where,
    They're far more suited than here.

    (ba dawp ba dawp ba ba, ba dawp ba ba ba dawp ba ba, ba dawp ba ba ba dawp ba ba dawp ba dawp bo)

    I cannot guess what we'll discover,
    When we turn the dirt with our palms cupped like shovels,
    But I know our filthy hands can wash one another's,
    And not one speck will remain.

    And I do believe it's true that there are roads left in both of our shoes, But if the silence takes you then I hope it takes me too.
    So brown eyes I hold you near, 'cause you're the only song I want to hear
    A melody softly soaring through my atmosphere.

    Where soul meets body.
    Where soul meets body.
    Where soul meets body.

    And I do believe it's true that there are roads left in both of our shoes, But if the silence takes you then I hope it takes me too.
    So brown eyes I hold you near, 'cause you're the only song I want to hear
    A melody softly soaring through my atmosphere.
    A melody softly soaring through my atmosphere.
    A melody softly soaring through my atmosphere.

    :oThis goes out to my "OMG :eek: it's SAD" dancing partner of night one Boston!!:D

    :pAhhhh....fun times...fun times indeed!!!;)


    :cool:
    all the photographs are peeling
    and colors turn to gray, he's stayin'
    in his room with memories for days, he faced
    an undertow of futures laid to waste, embraced
    by the loss of one he could not replace
    and there's no reason that she'd pass
    and there is no god with the plan, it's sad
    and his holiness is proof, it's sad
    he could only love you, it's sad
    the door swings through a passing fable
    a fate we may delay, we say
    holding on, to live within our embrace
    eleven nights, he laid in bed
    hoping that dreams would bring her back, it's sad
    and his holiness is proof, it's sad
    he could only love you, it's sad
    holding his last breath, believing
    he'll make his way
    but she's not forgotten
    he's haunted
    he's searching for escape
    if just one wish could bring her back, it's sent
    and his holiness is proof, it's sad
    he will always love you, it's sad
    If I could be anything in the world I would be your teardrop...I would be born in your eyes, live on your cheeks, and die on your lips.

    The year of 2003........................................



    You took my hand
    You showed me how
    You promised me you'd be around
    Uh huh
    That's right
    I took your words
    And I believed
    In everything
    You said to me
    Yeah huh
    That's right

    If someone said three years from now
    You'd be long gone
    I'd stand up and punch them out
    Cause they're all wrong
    I know better
    Cause you said forever
    And ever
    Who knew

    Remember when we were such fools
    And so convinced and just too cool
    Oh no
    No no
    I wish I could touch you again
    I wish I could still call you friend
    I'd give anything

    When someone said count your blessings now
    For they're long gone
    I guess I just didn't know how
    I was all wrong
    They knew better
    Still you said forever
    And ever
    Who knew

    Yeah yeah
    I'll keep you locked in my head
    Until we meet again
    Until we
    Until we meet again
    And I won't forget you my friend
    What happened

    If someone said three years from now
    You'd be long gone
    I'd stand up and punch them out
    Cause they're all wrong and
    That last kiss
    I'll cherish
    Until we meet again
    And time makes
    It harder
    I wish I could remember
    But I keep
    Your memory
    You visit me in my sleep
    My darling
    Who knew
    "You think I got my eyes closed but I'm lookin' at you the whole fuckin' time..."

    Nothing seems to kill me
    no matter how hard I try
    Nothing is closing my eyes
    Nothing can beat me down
    for your pain or delight
    And nothing seems to break me
    No matter how hard I fall
    nothing can break me at all
    Not one for giving up
    though not invincible I know

    Ive givin everything I need
    Id give you everything I own
    Id give in if it could at least be ours alone
    Ive given everything I could
    To blow it to hell and gone
    Burrow down in and
    Blow up the outside world

    Someone tried to tell me something
    Dont let the world get you down
    Nothing will do me in
    before I do myself
    So save it for your own
    and the ones you can help

    Want to make it understood
    Wanting though I never would
    Trying though I know its wrong
    Blowing it to hell and gone
    Wishing though I never could
    Blow up the outside world

    I almost posted this song the other day, girl.....and then I thought......no point. I'm over "that". ;)

    2003 was an exceptional year, although, it's quite nice to not be "under the influence" anymore, wouldn't you say? :D
    We’ll meet again, but not yet…not yet.

    I love the way you look at me
    I feel the pain you place inside
    Lock me up inside ya dirty cage
    While I'm alone inside my mind
    I like to teach you all the rules
    I'd get to see them set in stone
    I like it when you chain me to the bed
    There ya secrets never shone

    I need to feel you
    You need to feel me
    I can't control you
    You're not the one for me, no

    I can't control you
    You can't control me
    I need to feel you
    So why's it involve

    I love the way
    You rape my skin
    I feel the hate
    You place inside
    I need to get your voice
    Out of my head
    'Cause I'm the guy
    You'll never find

    I'm faking all of the rules
    There's no expressions
    On your face
    :o
    If I could be anything in the world I would be your teardrop...I would be born in your eyes, live on your cheeks, and die on your lips.

    Marching Bands Of Manhattan
    Death Cab for Cutie

    If I could open my arms
    And span the length of the isle of Manhattan,
    I'd bring it to where you are
    Making a lake of the East River and Hudson
    If I could open my mouth
    Wide enough for a marching band to march out
    They would make your name sing
    And bend through alleys and bounce off all the buildings.

    I wish we could open our eyes
    To see in all directions at the same time
    Oh what a beautiful view
    If you were never aware of what was around you
    And it is true what you said
    That I live like a hermit in my own head
    But when the sun shines again
    I'll pull the curtains and blinds to let the light in.

    Sorrow drips into your heart through a pinhole
    Just like a faucet that leaks and there is comfort in the sound
    But while you debate half empty or half full

    It slowly rises, your love is gonna drown
    It slowly rises, your love is gonna drown
    It slowly rises, your love is gonna drown
    It slowly rises, your love is gonna drown

    Your love is gonna drown
    Your love is gonna drown
    Your love is gonna drown
    Your love is gonna drown
    Your love is gonna...
    Stay with me...
    Let's just breathe...


    I am myself like you somehow

    I'll see you in nashville,
    If I ever get out that way.
    I'll see you in Austin,
    But I wont have long to stay.

    If you're ever out west son,
    and you feel like slowing down.
    I'll see you around,
    round my home town.
    no matter where you go,
    there you are.

    I found your photograph in a cardboard box in a magazine
    I can't remember you, remember us, or anything
    I taught you how to feel, but you just feel numb
    They taught you how to feel, but you just feel numb

    She comes apart in the avalanche
    Fades out like a dance
    Crawls back into bed
    When it's over
    When it's over
    When it's over
    And it's over

    I watch the window and listen for the sound of cars
    I can't remember the last time that it was yours
    I taught you how to feel, why do you feel numb?
    They taught us how to feel, but we just feel numb

    She falls apart in the avalanche
    Fades out like a dance
    Crawls back into bed
    When it's over
    When it's over
    When it's over
    When it's over

    She falls apart in the avalanche
    Fades out like a dance
    Crawls back into bed
    When it's over
    And it's over
    When it's over
    It's over.
    We’ll meet again, but not yet…not yet.

    It's been awhile
    Since I could hold my head up high
    And it's been awhile
    Since I first saw you
    And it's been awhile
    Since I could stand on my own two feet again
    And it's been awhile
    Since I could call you

    And everything I can't remember
    As fucked up as it all may seem
    The consequences that I've rendered
    I've stretched myself beyond my means

    And it's been awhile
    Since I can say that I wasn't addicted
    And it's been awhile
    Since I can say I love myself as well
    And it's been awhile
    Since I've gone and fucked things up just like I always do
    And it's been awhile
    But all that shit seems to disappear when I'm with you

    And everything I can't remember
    As fucked up as it all may seem
    The consequences that I've rendered
    I've gone and fucked things up again

    Why must I feel this way?
    Just make this go away
    Just one more peaceful day...

    And it's been awhile
    Since I could look at myself straight
    And it's been awhile
    Since I said I'm sorry
    And it's been awhile
    Since I've seen the way the candles light your face
    And it's been awhile
    But I can still remember just the way you taste

    And everything I can't remember
    As fucked up as it all may seem to be
    I know it's me
    I cannot blame this on my father
    He did the best he could for me

    And it's been awhile
    Since I could hold my head up high
    And it's been awhile
    Since I said I'm sorry.
    We’ll meet again, but not yet…not yet.

    gazing at people
    some hand in hand

    thoughts they cannot defend
    just what you want to be
    you will be in the end

    and i love you

  • This song makes me weepy. Especially today. I think I need to go curl up in a dark corner and listen to some emo.

    The night is cold, you lie with ghosts you have let down,
    An empty bed betrays you, you lie awake and wonder what went wrong
    The lights have died, the love they gave on borrowed time,
    And you’ll melt into the walls, melt into the walls

    Your time has run out, your time has run out,
    They lied, they lied baby, and I tried I tried lately...

    I’ll drink you slow, I’ll drink you slow but for a price,
    Water turns to poison and loving touch gives way to lonely nights
    It’s a fine white line, it’s a fine white line you’re stumbling across,
    You’ll melt into the walls, melt into the walls

    Your time has run out, your time has run out,
    They lied, they lied baby, and I tried I tried lately...

    Please don’t you ask,
    Please don’t you ask me how it feels,
    For she was the last,
    To light up my night and make me sing...

    Your time has run out, your time has run out,
    They lied, they lied baby, and I tried I tried lately...

    He could've tuned in, tuned in
    But he tuned out
    A bad time, nothing could save him
    Alone in a corridor, waiting, locked out
    He got up outta there, ran for hundreds of miles
    He made it to the ocean, had a smoke in a tree
    The wind rose up, set him down on his knee

    A wave came crashing like a fist to the jaw
    Delivered him wings, 'Hey, look at me now'
    Arms wide open with the sea as his floor
    Oh, power, oh
    He's.. flying.....whole

    He floated back down 'cause he wanted to share
    His key to the locks on the chains he saw everywhere
    But first he was stripped and then he was stabbed
    By faceless men, well, fuckers
    He still stands

    And he still gives his love, he just gives it away
    The love he receives is the love that is saved
    And sometimes is seen a strange spot in the sky
    A human being that was given to fly

    High.. flying
    Oh, oh
    High.. flying
    Oh, oh...~

    I'm so tired of being here
    Suppressed by all my childish fears
    And if you have to leave
    I wish that you would just leave
    cause your presence still lingers here
    And it won't leave me alone

    These wounds won't seem to heal
    This pain is just too real
    There's just too much that time cannot erase

    When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears
    When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
    And I held your hand through all of these years
    But you still have
    all of me

    You used to captivate me
    By your resonating light
    Now I'm bound by the life you've left behind
    Your face, it haunts
    My once pleasant dreams
    Your voice it chased away
    All the sanity in me

    These wounds won't seem to heal
    This pain is just too real
    There's just too much that time cannot erase

    When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears
    When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
    And I held your hand through all of these years
    But you still have
    all of me

    I've tried so hard to tell myself that you're gone
    But though you're still with me
    I've been alone all along

    When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears
    When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
    And I held your hand through all of these years
    But you still have
    all of me
    If I could be anything in the world I would be your teardrop...I would be born in your eyes, live on your cheeks, and die on your lips.
