    It's a little bit funny this feeling inside
    I'm not one of those who can easily hide
    I don't have much money but boy if I did
    I'd buy a big house where we both could live
    If I was a sculptor, but then again, no
    Or a man who makes potions in a travelling show
    I know it's not much but it's the best I can do
    My gift is my song and this one's for you
    And you can tell everybody this is your song
    It may be quite simple but now that it's done
    I hope you don't mind
    I hope you don't mind that I put down in words
    How wonderful life is while you're in the world
    I sat on the roof and kicked off the moss
    Well a few of the verses well they've got me quite cross
    But the sun's been quite kind while I wrote this song
    It's for people like you that keep it turned on
    So excuse me forgetting but these things I do
    You see I've forgotten if they're green or they're blue
    Anyway the thing is what I really mean
    Yours are the sweetest eyes I've ever seen

    Come on sing along! I have for a couple days now.
    Its been in my head since "Men of a Certain Age" ended with it

    Makin' a living the old hard way
    Takin' and givin' by day by day
    I dig the snow and the rain and the bright sunshine
    Draggin' The Line
    "
    "
    "
    MY dog Sam eats purple flowers
    we ain't got much, but what we got's ours
    We dig the snow and the rain and the bright sunshine
    Draggin' The Line
    "
    "
    "
    I feel fine I'm talkin' 'bout peace of mind
    I'm gonna take my time, I'm gettin' the good sign
    Draggin' The Line
    "
    "
    "
    Loving the free and feelin' spirit of
    Huggin' a tree
    when you get near it.
    Diggin' the snow and the rain and the bright sunshine
    Draggin' The Line
    "
    "
    "
    "
    ahhh songs were so nice and simple back then- I think I'll hug a tree today
  • i wish i could touch you again
    i wish i could still call you a friend
    i'd give anything
    If nothing is everything, I'll have it all
  • WITH THESE HANDS
    WITH THESE HANDS
    I'M GONNA RISE UP
    GONNA RISE UP
    COM'ON
    COM'ON
    WITH THESE HANDS
    I WILL RISE UP

  • Remember I'll always love you

    As I claw your fucking throat away

    It will end no other way

    - The Reverend Maynard
  • One time we were down and out and out and in
    Yes we all have problems
    But that's not where I want to begin
    Time's gone by, overnight, just like that
    And I can tell by what you don't tell me
    How much you mean by that
    And remember when this did start
    It was real, never a lark
    It was as deep as we can go
    Now I want you all to know
    This is not a reflection of you
    Or a portrait of me

    It's not make believe
    It's all too real you see
    I want nothing but to know
    It was all it seems
    I just want to think some of the things you said
    You really did mean
    If you wanna go
    Why should I say no?
    That'll be okay by me
    I don't want you to leave
    You can believe what you believe
    That'll be okay by me
    I remember when this did start
    It was real never a lark
    It was deep as deep as it can go
    Now I want you all to know
    If you wanna go
    Why should I say no?
    That'll be okay by me
    I don't want you to leave
    You can believe what you believe
    That will be okay by me
    That'll be okay by me
    That'll be okay by me

    the direction of the eye
    so misleading
    the defection of the soul
    nauseously quick

    I don't question
    our existence
    I just question
    our modern needs

    I will walk...with my hands bound
    I will walk...with my face blood
    I will walk...with my shadow flag
    into your garden
    garden of stone

    after all is done
    we're still alone
    I won't be taken
    yet I'll go...

    I will walk...with my hands bound
    I will walk...with my face blood
    I will walk...with my shadow flag
    into your garden
    garden of stone

    I don't show...
    I don't share...
    I don't need
    what you have to give...

    Wish you were here...

    I really DO love this song. :geek:

    Yes, I understand that every life must end, uh-huh
    As we sit alone, I know someday we must go, uh-huh
    Oh I'm a lucky man, to count on both hands the ones I love
    Some folks just have one, yeah, others, they've got none

    Stay with me...
    Let's just breathe...

    Practiced all my sins, never gonna let me win, uh-huh
    Under everything, just another human being, uh-huh
    I don't wanna hurt, there's so much in this world to make me believe

    Stay with me
    You're all I see...

    Did I say that I need you?
    Did I say that I want you?
    Oh, if I didn't I'm a fool you see
    No one knows this more than me

    As I come clean...
    I wonder everyday, as I look upon your face, uh-huh
    Everything you gave
    And nothing you would save, oh no

    Nothing you would take
    Everything you gave...

    Did I say that I need you?
    Oh, did I say that I want you?
    Oh, if I didn't I'm a fool you see
    No one knows this more than me
    And I come clean, ah...

    Nothing you would take
    Everything you gave
    Hold me til I die
    Meet you on the other side...

    i will light the match this mornin', so i won't be alone
    watch as she lies silent, for soon light will be gone
    i will stand arms outstretched, pretend i'm free to roam
    i will make my way, through, one more day in hell...
    how much difference does it make
    how much difference does it make...
    i will hold the candle till it burns up my arm
    i'll keep takin' punches until their will grows tired
    i will stare the sun down until my eyes go blind
    hey i won't change direction, and i won't change my mind
    how much difference does it make
    how much difference does it make..
    how much difference...
    i'll swallow poison, until i grow immune
    i will scream my lungs out till it fills this room
    how much difference
    how much difference
    how much difference does it make
    how much difference does it make...

    Wish you were here...

    I got you - that's all I want
    I won't forget - that's a whole lot
    I don't go out - now that you're in
    Sometimes we shout - but that's no problem

    I don't know why sometimes I get frightened
    You can see my eyes, you can tell that I'm not lyin'

    Look at you - you're a pageant
    You're everything - that I've imagined
    Something's wrong - I feel uneasy
    You show me - tell me you're not teasin'

    I don't know why sometimes I get frightened
    You can see my eyes, you can tell that I'm not lyin'

    There's no doubt - not when I'm with you
    When I'm without - I stay in my room
    Where do you go - I get no answer
    You're always out - it gets on my nerves

    I don't know why sometimes I get frightened
    You can see my eyes you can tell that I'm not lying
    I don't know why sometimes I get frightened
    You can see my eyes, you can tell that I'm not lyin'
    I don't know why sometimes I get frightened
    You can see my eyes, you can tell that I'm not lying

    Prophets Of War

    It burns deep down inside of me,
    we have ourselves to blame.
    Not questioning, accepted as the truth.

    Debate this fight it's just cause,
    the facts do not support theirs.
    To liberate a people,
    and rid them of tyrant rule

    Is it time to make the change,
    are we closer than before,
    can we help them break away,
    are we profiting from war?
    It´s time to make the change.

    Intrigued
    Got your attention
    Deceived
    Since the inception
    Our brave
    Fight for what reason

    Compelled
    Can we clean up this mess,
    The loss of loved ones
    A perverse request
    They continue the same rhetoric
    These derelicts that profit
    Win or lose.

    Is it time to make a change,
    Are we closer than before,
    Can we help them break away,
    Are we profiting from war?
    It´s time to make a change.

    Time for change
    Fight the fear
    Find the truth
    Time for change

    The only thing that I believe
    Will help us see this through is faith.
    Pray they will forgive,
    Forgive our arrogance,
    So we can make it right,
    Right for they have wronged.

    See you sweat
    Unexpected, Controversial
    Get used to it
    Things are gonna get personal
    Your sympathy
    A pitiful display you shutter
    Your empathy
    Means nothing if there is no honor
    Responsible
    Of this you are incapable
    We implicate
    Incriminate--Exacerbate
    Too much at stake

    Our Father, Mothers
    Sisters, Brothers
    Sons and Daughters
    Forced
    Perpetuating their ideals
    A mindless act
    To stay the course


    Is it time to make a change,
    Are we closer than before,
    Can we help them break away,
    Are we profiting from war?

    Is it time to make a change,
    Are we closer than before,
    Can we help them break away,
    Are we profiting from war,
    Is it time to make a change?
    A change from what it's been
    Can we help them break away,
    Is our patience wearing thin?
    It´s time to make a change.

    Time for change
    Fight the fear
    Find the truth
    Time for change



    Peace

  • Oh if I didn't die
    I should be... satisfied
    I survived
    It's good enough for now
    "I'm not present, I'm a drug that makes you dream"
  • So give up my friend
    Step back again
    For some things will be given
    And some you'll have to bend
    "I'm not present, I'm a drug that makes you dream"
  • So if you are out there waiting
    I hope you show up soon
    Cause my head needs relating
    Not solitude
    "I'm not present, I'm a drug that makes you dream"

    Baby you'll come knocking on
    my front door
    Same old line you used to use before
    I said ya...well...
    what am I supposed to do
    I didn't know what I was getting into
    So you've had a little trouble in town
    Now you're keeping some demon down
    Stop draggin' my...
    Stop draggin' my...
    Stop draggin' my heart around
    It's hard to think about
    what you've wanted
    It's hard to think about what you've lost
    This doesn't have to be the big get even
    This doesn't have to be anything at all
    I know you really want to
    tell me good-bye
    I know you really want to
    be your own girl
    Baby you could never look me in the eye
    Yeah you buckle with the weight
    of the words
    Stop draggin' my...
    Stop draggin' my...
    Stop draggin' my heart around
    There's people running 'round loose
    in the world
    Ain't got nothing better to do
    Than make a meal of some
    bright eyed kid
    You need someone looking after you
    I know you really want to
    tell me good-bye
    I know you really want to
    be your own girl
    Baby you could never look me in the eye
    Yeah you buckle with the weight
    of the words
    Stop draggin' my...
    Stop draggin' my...
    Stop draggin' my heart around

    Wish you were here...

    Hey there, sugar baby,
    saw you twice at the pop show
    You take just like glitter mixed with rock and roll
    I like you a lot, lot,
    think you're really hot, hot

    Let me take you to the movies. Can I take you to the show
    Let me be yours ever truly. Can I make your garden grow

    From the houses of the holy, we can watch the white doves go
    From the door comes Satan's daughter, and it only goes to show. You know.

    There's an angel on my shoulder, In my hand a sword of gold
    Let me wander in your garden. And the seeds of love I'll sow. You know.

    So the world is spinning faster. Are you dizzy when you're stoned?
    Let the music be your master. Will you heed the master's call
    Oh... Satan and man.

    Said there ain't no use in crying. Cause it will only, only drive you mad
    Does it hurt to hear them lying? Was this the only world you had? Oh-oh

    So let me take you, take you to the movie. Can I take you, baby, to the show.
    Why don't you let me be yours ever truly. Can I make your garden grow
    You know.

    Wish you were here...

    ~RIP Dad

    vacate is the word...vengeance has no place on me or her
    cannot find the comfort in this world
    artificial tear...vessel stabbed...next up, volunteers
    vulnerable, wisdom can't adhere...
    a truant finds home...and a wish to hold on...
    but there's a trapdoor in the sun...immortality...
    as privileged as a whore...victims in demand for public show
    swept out through the cracks beneath the door
    holier than thou, how?
    surrendered...executed anyhow
    scrawl dissolved, cigar box on the floor...
    a truant finds home...and a wish to hold on too...
    he saw the trapdoor in the sun...
    immortality...
    i cannot stop the thought...i'm running in the dark...
    coming up a which way sign...all good truants must decide...
    oh, stripped and sold, mom...auctioned forearm...
    and whiskers in the sink...
    truants move on...cannot stay long
    some die just to live...
    ohh...

    Wish you were here...
