    wow. I know this has to have been said here before (sorry I didn't get to read the 48 pages of responses as of yet---but I will)......

    "I gather speed from you fucking with me"



    I have a tatoo in my "tramp stamp" area that my teens refer to that area as, and since no one ever sees it anyway, (maybe on some level I agree that someone who is a mom and my age should not be showing that area---but that is just my own rule----everyone else gets a lot more slack than I allow myself)......
    but anyhoo,.....

    I thought that around that tatoo it would be cool to have those lyrics added for a private joke, the kind I have come to like a lot, as a nod to the proverbial phrase of someone messing with you bad, you know, f---ing you in the a--.
    Baby, You Wouldn't Last a Minute on The Creek......


    Together we will float like angels.........

    In the moment that you left the room, the album started skipping, goodbye to beauty shared with the ones that you love.........

    release me.
    I have faced it, A life wasted...

    Take my hand, my child of love
    Come step inside my tears
    Swim the magic ocean,
    I've been crying all these years

    Your words
    Your force
    Filling up an empty space inside my head
    Your words
    Your force
    If i could be humbled for you
    I would be free
    But i don't wanna mar you with my open heart
    Hold me, hold me helpless
    God i wish
    God I Wish
    Won't you come see me, Queen Jane....

    Leaving the pillow alone tonight
    And I can see for miles
    Speak father with all your might
    Drive in one last nail
    I’d walk right into your hands
    From the end of the earth
    I’d make one final stand
    If you could see what I’m worth

    Because I'm annoyed with the current gasoline prices, this line has been racing around my head lately:

    "When the gas in my tank feels like money in the bank, gonna blow it all this time take me one last ride"

    all the rusted signs we ignore throughout our lives, choosing the shiny ones instead - thumbing my way

    don't need a helmet, got a hard, hard head ( a perfect description of me!) - whipping

    I know I was born & I know that I'll die, the in between is mine...I AM MINE.

    wait for an angel, won't hold my breathe...'magine their busy, think I'm doing ok. - Satan's Bed

    I let go the rope, thinking that's what held me back & in time I realize it's now wrapped around my neck. - thumbing my way (one of my favorites!)

    I've changed by not changing at all.
    I will hold the candle until it burns up my arm. I'll keep taking punches until their will grows tired. I will stare the sun down until my eyes go blind. I won't change direction and I won't change my mind.

    One of many:

    "she dreams in colour, she dreams in red"
    I will hide & you will hide & we will hide together here
    Underneath the bunkers in a row
    I have water, I have rum
    Wait for dawn & dawn shall come
    Underneath the bunkers in a row - R.E.M.

    We were talking in the back, this has to be as far as your voices and your energy above the years i think this is the greatest audience that we ever played for! Es Verdad, i mean , no one sings the guitar parts for crist sake´s!

    thats my favorite line from a concert, haha he said that in argentina(L)
    oki. now
    there are many lines that i love..
    i just can´t write one down.. but in this moment i think the best line is:
    the first part of " I am mine "it´s absolutely beautiful and very inspiring for me!
    " El concierto de anoche fue uno de los más memorables de nuestra vida, la gente de Argentina ha sido fantásica con nosotros, no nos queremos Ir "

    "Jesus greets me, looks just like me" and "human devices set me free, all my pieces set me free" from W.M.A.

    a beautiful and emotional look at sociology in that song.


    indifference as a whole is beautifully written as well.

    Just a few of my favorites:

    Tidal waves don't beg forgiveness
    Crashed, then on their way

    and

    Nature has its own religion; gospel from the land
    MAN OF THE HOUR

    No matter how cold the winter, there's a springtime ahead
    THUMBING MY WAY

    No time, this time, to feign reluctance
    EVACUATION

    all of NOT FOR YOU. lol

    Your light's reflected now,... reflected from afar...
    We were but stones,... your light made us stars
    LIGHT YEARS

    What are you running from?
    Taking pills to get along
    Creating walls to call your own
    So no one catches you?
    ALL THOSE YESTERDAYS

    You can spend your time alone, re-digesting past regrets, oh
    Or you can come to terms and realize
    You're the only one who can't forgive yourself, oh
    Makes much more sense, to live in the present tense
    PRESENT TENSE
