this always gets me happy and clapping and jumping and what not
it's okay, you don't have to run and hide away
it's okay, I love you anyway
it's okay, you don't have to run and hide away
it's okay...
this is my chance, this is my life
this is my hope in an alleyway
this is my choice, this is my voice
there may be no tomorrow, now
this is my plea, this is my need
this is my time for standing free
this is my staff, this is my day
and the world is never safe
it's okay, you know I love you anyway
it's okay, you don't have to run and hide away
it's okay, it's okay
it's okay..."You think I got my eyes closed but I'm lookin' at you the whole fuckin' time..."0 -
I Shall Not Walk Alone
by The Blind Boys of Alabama
Battered and torn
still I can see the light
Tattered and worn
but I must kneel to fight
Friend of mine
what can't you spare
I know some times
it gets cold in there
When my legs no longer carry
and the warm wind chills my bones
I reach for Mother Mary
and I shall not walk alone
Hope is alive
while we're apart
only tears
speak from my heart
break the chains
that hold us down
and we shall be
forever bound
When I'm tired and weary
and a long way from home
I reach for Mother Mary
and I shall not walk alone
Beauty that
we left behind
how shall we
tomorrow find
Set aside
our weight in sin
so that we
can live again
When my legs no longer carry
and the warm wind chills my bones
I reach for Mother Mary
and I shall not walk aloneI know someday you will have a beautiful Life

I'm coming out of my cage
And I’ve been doing just fine
Gotta gotta be down
Because I want it all
It started out with a kiss
How did it end up like this
It was only a kiss, it was only a kiss
Now I’m falling asleep
And she’s calling a cab
While he’s having a smoke
And she’s taking a drag
Now they’re going to bed
And my stomach is sick
And it’s all in my head
But she’s touching his—chest
Now, he takes off her dress
Now, let me go
I just can’t look it's killing me
And taking control
Jealousy, turning saints into the sea
Swimming through sick lullabies
Choking on your alibis
But it’s just the price I pay
Destiny is calling me
Open up my eager eyes
‘Cause I’m Mr. Brightside
I’m coming out of my cage
And I’ve been doing just fine
Gotta gotta be down
Because I want it all
It started out with a kiss
How did it end up like this
It was only a kiss, it was only a kiss
Now I’m falling asleep
And she’s calling a cab
While he’s having a smoke
And she’s taking a drag
Now they’re going to bed
And my stomach is sick
And it’s all in my head
But she’s touching his—chest
Now, he takes off her dress
Now, let me go
Cause I just can’t look its killing me
And taking control
Jealousy, turning saints into the sea
Swimming through sick lullabies
Choking on your alibis
But it’s just the price I pay
Destiny is calling me
Open up my eager eyes
‘Cause I’m Mr Brightside
I never...
I never...
I never...

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...I know someday you will have a beautiful Life

Silver Saddle
tonight you've caught your breath
you've lost your american spirit
if only i could catch my death yeah
jus' give me long enough to fear it
her talk ain't like the other girls
she takes my livin' at a glance
we hear the locust's rasp back and forth
an' through the thoughts the past does dance
do i waste my time
yeah well you know it
an' as i stroll through the room
see my features show it
feel the hand on my shoulder
yeah it calls me to dwell
take a breath hard an' clear yeah
like a hammer on a church bell

Come to me
I'll take care of you
Protect you
Calm, calm down
You're exhausted
Come lie down
You don't have to explain
I understand
You know
That i adore you
You know
That I love you
So don't make me say it
It would burst the bubble
Break the charm
Jump off
Your building's on fire
I'll catch you
I'll catch you
Destroy all that is keeping you down
And then I'll nurse you
I'll nurse you
Come to me
I'll take care of you
You don't have to explain
I understand

I'm jaded, and you're beautiful
I'm deluded, and I'm envious of you
You're carin' that I'm hurtin'
But I'm laughin' 'cause I'm lyin'
And you believe what I say to be true
This is the way God made me
No self-reliance, no social skills
You're confident and you express yourself so well
Your learned degrees upon your wall
I'm jealous, no invitations to the ball
This is the way God made me
This is the way God made me
No self-esteem, you're picture-perfect
You walk about so contented, the trees call out your name
You're clean and I'm so ignorant
I'm basic and I'm jaded and my excuses are so lame
This is the way God made me
This is the way (this is the way) God made me
(I think this is just the way I'm meant to be, yeah)
This is the way God made me
(Well there's no excuse it's just the way God made me)
This is the way (hey, yeah) God made me
It's just the way I amsometimes you're the boxer...sometimes you're the bag...0 -
I'm a lexicon devil
with a battered brain
And I'm searching for a future
the world's my aim
So gimme gimme your hands
gimme gimme your minds
gimme gimme this
gimme gimme that
I want toy tin soldiers that can push and shove
I want gunboy rovers that'll wreck this club
I'll build you up and level your heads
We'll run it my way, cold men
and politic's dead
I'll get silver guns to drip old blood
Let's give this established joke a shove
We're gonna wreak havoc on the rancid mill
I'm searching for something
even if I'm killed
Empty out your pockets
you don't need their change
I'm giving you the power to rearrange
Together we'll run to the highest prop
Tear it down and let it drop awayi am disco0 -
I wanna live
with a cinnamon girl
I could be happy
the rest of my life
With a cinnamon girl.
A dreamer of pictures
I run in the night
You see us together,
chasing the moonlight,
My cinnamon girl.
Ten silver saxes,
a bass with a bow
The drummer relaxes
and waits between shows
For his cinnamon girl.
A dreamer of pictures
I run in the night
You see us together,
chasing the moonlight,
My cinnamon girl.
Pa sent me money now
I'm gonna make it somehow
I need another chance
You see your baby loves to dance
Yeah...yeah...yeah.sometimes you're the boxer...sometimes you're the bag...0 -
bobby lee
kris delmhorst
late morning midnight, sunny tuesday gloom,
silence under shutters, stillness in the room.
bobby lee, bobby lee, this cave’s too dark for me. I gotta go out where the wind can find my face.
I just hope that you’ll see eventually that I was only trying to roll the stone away.
the years and the seasons, the tide and the breeze,
they come and bring their changes, so you call them all your enemies.
bobby lee, I don’t think I can breathe, and the walls get closer every single day,
and yeah it’s true I’m gonna leave, I just hope you can believe how hard I really tried to roll the stone away.
sorrow comes a knocking, but you won’t let her inside.
so she goes away with joy her little sister.
but she’s looking back in her tracks, a tear in her eye.
bobby lee, bobby lee, I believe it’s killing me, and I got no other words that I can say.
but I pray every night that someday you might find a way to roll that stone away
bobby lee, bobby lee, you meant the world to me, and I miss you more than I could ever say.
but I tried for so long, and no one is that strong. I think it’s you who’s gotta roll the stone away.0 -
Pantera - Cowboys from Hell
Under the lights where we stand tall
Nobody touches us at all
Showdown, shootout, spread fear within, without
We’re gonna take what’s ours to have
Spread the word throughout the land
They say the bad guys wear black
We’re tagged and can’t turn back
You see us coming
And you all together run for cover
We’re taking over this town
Here we come reach for your gun
And you better listen my friend, you see
It’s been slow down below,
Aimed at you we’re the cowboys from hell
Deed is done again, we’ve won
Ain’t talking no tall tales friend
cause high noon, your doom
Coming for you, we’re the cowboys from hell
Pillage the village, trash the scene
But better not take it out on me
cause a ghost town is found
Where your city used to be
So out of the darkness and into the light
Sparks fly everywhere in sight
From my double barrel, 12 gauge,
Can’t lock me in your cage
You see us coming
And you all together run for cover
We’re takin over this town
Here we come reach for your gun
And you better listen my friend, you see
It’s been slow down below,
Aimed at you we’re the cowboys from hell
Deed is done again, we’ve won
Ain’t talking no tall tales friend
’cause high noon, your doom
Comin’ for you we’re the cowboys from helli am disco0 -
Let's say I'm feeling better
Let's say I'm feeling fine
Let's say I gave you all I had
And now I'm out of time
And my best wasn't good enough
And now there's time to wonder
Now there's time to heal
Time to let it all come down
But I don't know what I feel
But it aches and it hurts and it burns
Oh it kills me
Tick, tock, you don't stop
You don't fade
You just stay
But I'll do it all again
Tick, tock, you don't stop
You don't fade
You just stay
But I'll do it all again
Now don't you call me baby
Just don't pretend you care
Save your sorry for yourself
When Judas takes you there, oh yeah
Once I really believed
There was nothing out there for the lost and lonely
But a voice in my head kept banging on my heart
Says you're not the only one
But it kills me
Tick, tock, you don't stop
You don't fade
You just stay
But I'll do it all again
Tick, tock, you don't stop
You don't fade
You just stay
But I'll do it all againI know someday you will have a beautiful Life

Bright Eyes - Road to Joy
the sun came up with no conclusions
flowers sleeping in their beds
the city cemetary's humming
I'm wide awake, it's morning
I have my drugs, I have my woman
they keep away my loneliness
my parents, they have their religion
but sleep in separate houses
I read the body count out of the paper
and now it's written all over my face
no one ever plans to sleep out in the gutter
sometimes that's just the most comfortable place
so I'm drinking, breathing, writing, singing
every day I'm on the clock
my mind races with all my longings
but can't keep up with all I've got
so I hope I don't sound too ungrateful
when history gave modern men
the telephone to talk to strangers
machine guns and the camera lens
so when you're asked to fight a war that's all for nothing
it's best to join the side that's gonna win
and no one's sure how all of this got started
but we're gonna make 'em goddamn certain how it's gonna end
well I could have been a famous singer
if I had someone else's voice
but failure's always sounded better
let's fuck it up boys, make some noise!
the sun came up with no conclusions
flowers sleeping in their beds
the city cemetary's humming
I'm wide awake, it's morning!i am disco0 -
Oh let the sun beat down upon my face, stars to fill my dream
I am a traveler of both time and space, to be where I have been
To sit with elders of the gentle race, this world has seldom seen
They talk of days for which they sit and wait and all will be revealed
Talk and song from tongues of lilting grace, whose sounds caress my ear
But not a word I heard could I relate, the story was quite clear
Oh, oh.
Oh, I been flying... mama, there ain’t no denyin’
I’ve been flying, ain’t no denyin’, no denyin’
All I see turns to brown, as the sun burns the ground
And my eyes fill with sand, as I scan this wasted land
Trying to find, trying to find where I’ve been.
Oh, pilot of the storm who leaves no trace, like thoughts inside a dream
Heed the path that led me to that place, yellow desert stream
My shangri-la beneath the summer moon, I will return again
Sure as the dust that floats high and true, when movin’ through kashmir.
Oh, father of the four winds, fill my sails, across the sea of years
With no provision but an open face, along the straits of fear
Ohh.
When I’m on, when I’m on my way, yeah
When I see, when I see the way, you stay-yeah
Ooh, yeah-yeah, ooh, yeah-yeah, when I’m down...
Ooh, yeah-yeah, ooh, yeah-yeah, well I’m down, so down
Ooh, my baby, oooh, my baby, let me take you there
Let me take you there. let me take you theresometimes you're the boxer...sometimes you're the bag...0 -
My cell is ringing
No ID
I need to know who's calling
My garden's overgrown
I go out on my belly crawling
I got CCTV, pornography, CNBC
I got the nightly news
To get to know the enemy
All I want is a picture of you
All I want is to get right next to you
All I want is your face in a locket
Picture in my pocket
I take a pill to stop it
I know these fast cars
Will do me no good
I'm going nowhere
Where I am it is a lot of fun
They're in the desert to dismantle an atomic bomb
I watch them channel hop
Check the stocks
I'm in detox
I want the lot of what you've got
If what you've got can make this stop
All I want is a picture of you
All I want is to be right next to you
All I want is your picture in a locket
Your face in my pocket
Take a pill to stop it
I know these fast cars
Will do me no good
Don't you worry about your mind
Don't you worry about your mind
Don't you worry about your mind
Don't you worry about your mind
You should worry about the day
That the pain it goes away
You know I miss mine sometimes
There is no fiction
That will truly fit the situation
I'm documenting every detail
Every conversation
I'm not used to talking to somebody in their body
Look, there's somebody in a body, somebody in a body

i've got our love to remember
that will never change
i have you in my head
and no, i'll never hold you
and i'm still asking why
i guess that this is goodbye
my dreams suddenly seem so empty
i could go on my own, but i feel like playin' dead
and for what feels like the first time
i don't know where you are tonight
i guess that this is goodbye
we lived half our lives together
a hundred years is a lot of weight to bear
and the sun, it may be shining
but there's an ocean in my eyes
cause i know that this is goodbyeI know someday you will have a beautiful Life

Weren't you the one who said that you don't want me anymore
And how you need your space and give the keys back to your door
And how I cried and tried and tried to make you stay with me
And still you said your love was gone and that I had to leave
Now you're Talking bout a family
Now you're saying I complete your dreams
Oh
Now you're sayin I'm your everything
You're confusing me
What you saying to me, don't play wit me, don't play wit me
Cause....
What goes around comes around
What goes up must come down
Now who's cryin', desirin' to come back to me
What goes around comes around
What goes up must come down
Now who's cryin, desirin', to come back
I remember when I was sittin home alone
Waitin for you til 3 o'clock in the 'morn
And when you came home you'd always have some sorry excuse
Half explaining to me like I'm just some kind of a fool
I sacrificed the things I wanted just to do things for you
But when it's time to do for me
You never come thru
Now you wanna be up under me
Now you have so much to say to me
Now you wanna make time for me
Whatcha doin to me, you're confusin me
Don't play with me don't play with me cause
What goes around comes around
What goes up must come down
Now who's cryin', desirin' to come back to me
What goes around comes around
What goes up must come down
Now who's cryin, desirin', to come back
What goes around comes around
What goes up must come down
Now who's cryin', desirin' to come back to me
What goes around comes around
What goes up must come down
Now who's cryin, desirin', to come back
I remember when I was sittin home alone
Waitin for you till 3 o'clock in the 'morn
Night after night knowing something goin on
Wasn't long before I be gone
Lord knows it wasn't easy believe me
Never thought you'd be the one that would deceive me
And never do what you're supposed to do
No need to approach me fool, cuz I'm over you
What goes around comes around
What goes up must come down
Now who's cryin', desirin' to come back to me
What goes around comes around
What goes up must come down
Now who's cryin, desirin', to come back
Gotta stop trying to come back to me
What goes around comes around
What goes up must come down
Now who's cryin', desirin' to come back to me
What goes around comes around
What goes up must come down
Now who's cryin, desirin', to come back
It's called Karma baby and it goes around

About as close as you dare
I feel the pain of everyone
Then I feel nothing
I feel the pain of everyone
Then I feel nothing
Is it up to me ?
You won't wait to see
Screwed us yet again
About as close as you dare
Hey now, take it back
Get off me, you're sad
Trailin' on your scene
Just try and keep it clearI know someday you will have a beautiful Life
