    When you're looking at life,
    In a strange new room,
    Maybe drowning soon,
    Is this the start of it all?
    Turn on your TV,
    Turn down your pulse,
    Turn away from it all,
    It's all getting too much.

    When you're looking at life,
    Deciphering scars,
    Just who fooled who,
    Sit still in their cars,
    The lights look bright,
    When you reach outside,
    Time for one last ride,
    Before the end of it all.

    Joy Division - Exercise One
    "It's not hard to own something. Or everything. You just have to know that it's yours, and then be willing to let it go." - Neil Gaiman, "Stardust"

    can you come to this garden
    share with me the beautiful
    day listen to the birds sing
    softly
    lay with me and drift away
    follow me to the ocean
    share with me this beautiful
    day
    listen to the waves break
    gently
    lay with me and drift

    she moves through the trees
    with deadly grace and speed
    sitting on the branches
    and she strokes my emotion

    she moves through the trees
    with deadly grace and speed
    whispers through the wind
    for me to keep on movin
    on I'm movin on movin on
    "I'm not present, I'm a drug that makes you dream"

    Love comes and goes
    sometimes decades sometimes months
    raise you up to the sky
    make you feel like every
    little thing is bright
    send you crashing back down
    make ya so sick that ya
    wanna drown
    no other pain
    like losing a soul mate

    the roads we take in life
    often seem to be very strong
    walk them carefully like
    we're walking on bricks
    and stone
    only when ya look behind
    you will see the road is cracked
    from there we must
    move forward
    gently as we tread

    carry our guilt sometimes
    seems the only thing that's easy
    it will eat away your flesh
    and bones and heart as you
    bleed
    my good amigo once said that
    the truth will set you free
    but I guess we have to wait
    sometimes just wait around
    and see

    I see a new sun rising ahead
    brand new colors
    brand new road ahead
    sweeping up the pieces
    of a broken nest
    sweepin up the pieces
    but the pieces never end

    Love comes and goes.
    "I'm not present, I'm a drug that makes you dream"

    Some say love it is a river
    that drowns the tender reed
    Some say love it is a razer
    that leaves your soul to bleed

    Some say love it is a hunger
    an endless aching need
    I say love it is a flower
    and you it's only seed

    It's the heart afraid of breaking
    that never learns to dance
    It's the dream afraid of wakingthat never takes the chance
    It's the one who won't be taken
    who cannot seem to give
    and the soul afraid of dyingthat never learns to live

    When the night has been too lonely
    and the road has been too long
    and you think that love is only
    for the lucky and the strong
    Just remember in the winterfar beneath the bitter snows
    lies the seed
    that with the sun's love
    in the spring
    becomes the rose

    Wish you were here...

    I can`t believe that it`s real,
    the way that you make me feel.
    A burning deep down inside,
    a love that I cannot hide.
    Our love is you and me baby,
    that makes the world go round.
    And if you`ve been doin` lovin` with me,
    layin` all my troubles down,
    here I am, baby,
    come and take me.
    Here I am, baby,
    come and take me,
    take me by the hand.
    Show me,
    here I am, baby.

    It always ends up this way,
    me begging you every day.
    A love that I cannot have,
    you broke my heart into half.
    Our love is you and me baby,
    that make`s the world go round.
    And if you`ve been doin` lovin` with me,
    layin` all my troubles down,
    here I am, baby,
    come and take me,
    Here I am, baby,
    come and take me,
    take me by the hand.
    Show me,
    here I am, baby.

    When I`m down I can always call you,
    for a helpin` hand.
    I know you`ll do the best you can.
    But it don`t take much from me,
    just my cup of joe.
    Oh there`s love inside me,
    I believe there`s one to be explodin`,
    It`s tough for me, oh baby,
    I can do worry,
    tell me all your troubles.
    You won`t ever have to worry now,
    Just one more thing, ask everybody,
    everybody you see,
    you`ll find yourselve lost and alone on a darkened street,
    here I am, baby,
    come and take me.
    Here I am, baby,
    come and take me,
    take me by the hand.
    Show me,
    here I am, baby...

    Eyes like oceans so far away
    A feather trail to a better way
    Worried mornings turn into days
    Then into worried nights

    May just crack and break
    With the changes you will confront

    Life it seems will fade away
    Drifting further everyday
    Getting lost within myself
    Nothing matters no one else
    I have lost the will to live Simply nothing more to give
    There is nothing more for me
    Need the end to set me free

    Things not what they used to be Missing one inside of me
    Deadly loss this cant be real
    Cannot stand this hell i feel
    Emptiness is filling me To the point of agony
    Growing darkness taking dawn
    I was me but now, hes gone

    No one but me can save myself, but its too late
    Now i cant think, think why i should even try

    Yesterday seems as though it never existed
    Death greets me warm, now i will just say goodbye
    Goodbye

    Wish you were here...

    When the day is long and the night, the night is yours alone,
    When you're sure you've had enough of this life, well hang on
    Don't let yourself go, 'cause everybody cries and everybody hurts sometimes

    Sometimes everything is wrong. Now it's time to sing along
    When your day is night alone, (hold on, hold on)
    If you feel like letting go, (hold on)
    When you think you've had too much of this life, well hang on

    'Cause everybody hurts. Take comfort in your friends
    Everybody hurts. Don't throw your hand. Oh, no. Don't throw your hand
    If you feel like you're alone, no, no, no, you are not alone

    If you're on your own in this life, the days and nights are long,
    When you think you've had too much of this life to hang on

    Well, everybody hurts sometimes,
    Everybody cries. And everybody hurts sometimes
    And everybody hurts sometimes. So, hold on, hold on
    Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on
    Everybody hurts. You are not alone

    Wish you were here...

    One of the most misunderstood lyrics written by Metallica. A song NOT necessarily about suicide but a sense for a loss and NOT knowing where to to turn.
    SONGFACTS: Metallica wrote this after their equipment was stolen in early '84 and they had to start all over again. More specifically, James Hetfield wrote the lyrics in response to one of his amps being stolen. Not only was this amp his favorite, but it was also the first amp he ever owned so it had a lot of sentimental value to him. The song is about losing everything and wondering if it is worth going on...

    In an interview with lead vocalist James Hetfield on the set of the production "MTV Icon: Metallica" in 2005, he does recall how himself and bandmate Lars Ulrich were obsessed with death at the time the album and song were produced. It was written after almost all of their equipment, including a very rare amplifier, given to singer/rhythm guitarist James Hetfield by his mother just before she died, was stolen in Boston, MA, following a gig at the Channel Club on 14th January 1984. This event forced Metallica to borrow equipment from fellow tour band and friends, Anthrax, for the remainder of the tour.
    Also..
    Metallica was playing this song at their 1992 concert in Montreal's Olympic Stadium when James Hetfield was burned badly by wayward stage pyrotechnics.

    Great song just filled with so much sadness. :(

    Peace

    Once I thought I saw you in a crowded hazy bar,
    Dancing on the light from star to star.
    Far across the moonbeam I know that's who you are,
    I saw your brown eyes turning once to fire.

    You are like a hurricane
    There's calm in your eye.
    And I'm gettin' blown away
    To somewhere safer where the feeling stays.
    I want to love you but I'm getting blown away.

    I am just a dreamer, but you are just a dream,
    You could have been anyone to me.
    Before that moment you touched my lips
    That perfect feeling when time just slips
    Away between us on our foggy trip.

    You are like a hurricane
    There's calm in your eye.
    And I'm gettin' blown away
    To somewhere safer where the feeling stays.
    I want to love you but I'm getting blown away.

    You are just a dreamer, and I am just a dream.
    You could have been anyone to me.
    Before that moment you touched my lips
    That perfect feeling when time just slips
    Away between us on our foggy trip.

    You are like a hurricane
    There's calm in your eye.
    And I'm gettin' blown away
    To somewhere safer where the feeling stays.
    I want to love you but I'm getting blown away.

    I'm in love with you girl 'cause you're on my mind,
    you're the one I think about most every time.
    And when you pack a smile in everything you do,
    don't you understand, girl, this love is true.
    You're soft, succulent so sweet and thin
    that's kind of like a vision upon your skin.
    It lightens up my day, and that's oh so true.
    Together we're one separated we're two.
    To make you all mine, all mine is my desire.
    'Cause you contain a quality, you that I admire.
    You're pretty plain and simple, you rule my world so try to understand.
    I'm in love girl,
    I'm in so love girl.
    I'm just in love girl, and this is true.
    Girl, you know it's true.
    Ooh, Ooh, Ooh I love you.
    Yes, you know it's true.
    Ooh, Ooh, Ooh I love you.
    Girl, you know it's true.
    My love is for you.
    Girl, you know it's true.
    My love is for you.
    This is some sort of thing, girl, I can't explain,
    my emotions starts up when I hear your name.
    Maybe your sweet sweet voice would ring in my ear,
    then delay my system when you are near.
    Come with your positive emotion, love, making enjoyin'
    that's for me to bust it's like a girl and a boy.
    These feelings I get I often wonder why,
    so I thought I might discuss this, girl, just you and I.
    Now what you're wearing I don't care, as I've said before,
    no reason that I like you, girl, just for what you are.
    If I said I'd think about it, you rule my world so try to understand.
    I'm in love girl,
    I'm in so love girl.
    I'm just in love girl, and this is true.
    Girl, you know it's true.
    Ooh, Ooh, Ooh I love you.
    Yes, you know it's true.
    Ooh, Ooh, Ooh I love you.
    Girl, you know it's true.
    My love is for you.
    Girl, you know it's true.
    My love
    Girl, you know it's true.
    Ooh, Ooh, Ooh I love you.
    Yes, you know it's true.
    Ooh, Ooh, Ooh I love you.

    You're not a stranger to me
    And you are something to see
    You don't even know how to please
    You say a lot but you're unaware how to leave

    My darling lives in a world that is not mine
    An old child misunderstood out of time
    Timeless is the creature who is wise
    And timeless is the prisoner in disguise

    Oh who is the beauty who the beast
    Would you die of grieving when I leave
    Two children too blind to see
    I would fall in your shadow I believe

    My love is a man who's not been tamed
    Oh my love lives in a world of false pleasure and pain
    We come from difference worlds we are the same my love
    I never doubted your beauty I've changed
    I never doubted your beauty I've changed

    Changed who is the beauty
    Where is my beast (my love)
    There is no beauty
    Without my beast (my love)

    Who is the beauty
    Who my love
    Ahhh
    Oh la bete la bete
    Where is my beast

    My beauty my beauty
    My beautiful beautiful beautiful
    Beautiful beast

    Wish you were here...

    He's a rebel and a runner
    He's a signal turning green
    He's a restless young romantic
    Wants to run the big machine

    He's got a problem with his poisons
    But you know he'll find a cure
    He's cleaning up his systems
    To keep his nature pure

    Learning to match the beat of the Old World man
    Learning to catch the heat of the Third World man

    He's got to make his own mistakes
    And learn to mend the mess he makes
    He's old enough to know what's right
    But young enough not to choose it
    He's noble enough to win the world
    But weak enough to lose it -

    He's a New World man...

    Let's swim to the moon, uh huh
    Let's climb through the tide
    Penetrate the evenin' that the
    City sleeps to hide
    Let's swim out tonight, love
    It's our turn to try
    Parked beside the ocean
    On our moonlight drive

    Let's swim to the moon, uh huh
    Let's climb through the tide
    Surrender to the waiting worlds
    That lap against our side

    Nothin' left open
    And no time to decide
    We've stepped into a river
    On our moonlight drive

    Let's swim to the moon
    Let's climb through the tide
    You reach your hand to hold me
    But I can't be your guide

    Easy, I love you
    As I watch you glide
    Falling through wet forests
    On our moonlight drive, baby
    Moonlight drive

    Come on, baby, gonna take a little ride
    Down, down by the ocean side
    Gonna get real close
    Get real tight
    Baby gonna drown tonight
    Goin' down, down, down

    Wish you were here...

    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...

    LIMELIGHT

    Living on a lighted stage
    Approaches the unreal
    For those who think and feel
    In touch with some reality
    Beyond the gilded cage.

    Cast in this unlikely role,
    Ill-equipped to act,
    With insufficient tact,
    One must put up barriers
    To keep oneself intact.

    Living in the Limelight,
    The universal dream
    For those who wish to seem.

    Those who wish to be
    Must put aside the alienation,
    Get on with the fascination,
    The real relation,
    The underlying theme.

    Living in a fisheye lens,
    Caught in the camera eye.
    I have no heart to lie,
    I can't pretend a stranger
    Is a long-awaited friend.

    All the world's indeed a stage,
    And we are merely players,
    Performers and portrayers,
    Each another's audience
    Outside the gilded cage.


    Great, superior lyrics for any ROCK band that loves to tour.
