Savior--Rise Against

If this ain't love then how do we get out?
because I don't know
that' s when she said I don't hate you boy
I just want to save you while there's still something left to save
that's when I told her I love you girl
but I'm not the answer to the questions that you still have

Overweight--Blue October

I owned up, I've grown up, do you remember me?
I showed up and so what if I'm the used to be
I'm here to tell you that I'm sorry I was sorry
But I'm happy that you're happy
This is no longer about me

Into the Ocean--Blue October

Now floating up and down
I spin, colliding into sound
Like whales beneath me diving down
I'm sinking to the bottom of my
Everything that freaks me out
The lighthouse beam has just run out
I'm cold as cold as cold can be
be

Hate Me--Blue October

I have to block out thoughts of you so I don’t lose my head
They crawl in like a cockroach leaving babies in my bed
Dropping little reels of tape to remind me that I’m alone
Playing movies in my head that make a porno feel like home
There's a burning in my pride, a nervous bleeding in my brain
An ounce of peace is all I want for you. Will you never call again?
And will you never say that you love me just to put it in my face?
And will you never try to reach me?
It is I that wanted space

Coldplay - The Scientist

I was just guessing at numbers and figures
Pulling the puzzles apart
Questions of science, science and progress
Do not speak as loud as my heart

But tell me you love me, come back and haunt me
Oh and I rush to the start
Running in circles, chasing our tails
Coming back as we are

Nobody said it was easy
Oh, it's such a shame for us to part

 

[Rane1071]

The Mississippi Delta was shining
Like a National guitar
I am following the river
Down the highway
Through the cradle of the civil war

And my traveling companions
Are ghosts and empty sockets
I'm looking at ghosts and empties
But I've reason to believe
We all will be received
In Graceland

"Graceland" - Paul Simon.

A Little shoeshine boy never gets low down
But he's got the dirtiest job in town
Bendin' low at the peoples' feet
On the windy corner of the dirty street
Well, I asked him while he shined my shoes
How'd he keep from gettin' the blues
He grinned as he raised his little head
Popped a shoeshine rag and then he said

Get rhythm when you get the blues
Come on, get rhythm when you get the blues
A jumpy rhythm makes you feel so fine
It'll shake all the trouble from your worried mind
Get rhythm when you get the blues

- Johnny Cash "Get Rhythm"

Libyan on a Jet Plane
(Pinkard & Bowden)

(Tune of 'Leaving on a Jet Plane)


There's so many times we've crashed and burned,
Seems like the colonel would finally learn
Our Russian jets don't make good submarines.
We fly out to protect our nation,
And use seat bottoms for flotation.
The water's warm, and we're good swimmers too.

So kiss me and smile for me,
Call my folks in Tripoli,
Tell them that Khadafi made me go.
I'm a Libyan on a jet plane,
I don't know if I'll be back again.
Muammar, I hate to go.

Aircraft carrier J.F.K.
Come to blow our chemical plant away,
But we keep telling them it's just pharmaceutical.

So miss me and pray for me,
Bow down to the East for me,
Kneel and gently kiss my butt good-bye.
I'm a Libyan on a jet plane,
Don't know if I'll be back again.
Libyan on a jet plane,
Don't know if I'll be back again.

Begin the day with a friendly voice,
a companion unobtrusive
Plays that song that's so elusive
and the magic music makes your morning mood

 

[Rane1071]

I'm gonna hit the highway
Like a battering ram
On a silver black Phantom bike
Oh, when the metal is hot
And the engine is hungry
And we're all about to see the light

"Bat out of Hell" - Meatloaf.

 

[Hot Mega]

"...brothers try and others die to get the formula
but I'mma let-you-sweat you still ain't warm you're
a step away from frozen, stiff as if you posin'
dig into my brain as the rhyme gets chosen..
..so follow me and were ya' thinkin' you were first -
let's travel at magnificent speeds around the universe.
What could you say as the earth gets further and further away - planet's as smalls a ball of clay...
Astray into the milky way, world's out of sight..far as the eye can see not even a satellite.
Now stop and turn around and look, as you stare in the darkness your knowledge took
So keep staring, soon you suddenly see a star you better follow it 'cause it's the R
This is a lesson if you're guessing and if you're borrowin' hurry, hurry, step right up and keep followin' (the leader).."

Eric B & Rakim - 'Follow the Leader"

 

[Rane1071]

Our galaxy itself contains a hundred billion stars;
It's a hundred thousand light-years side to side;
It bulges in the middle sixteen thousand light-years thick,
But out by us it's just three thousand light-years wide.
We're thirty thousand light-years from Galactic Central Point,
We go 'round every two hundred million years;
And our galaxy itself is one of millions of billions
In this amazing and expanding universe

Our universe itself keeps on expanding and expanding,
In all of the directions it can whiz;
As fast as it can go, at the speed of light, you know,
Twelve million miles a minute and that's the fastest speed there is.
So remember, when you're feeling very small and insecure,
How amazingly unlikely is your birth;
And pray that there's intelligent life somewhere out in space,
'Cause there's bugger all down here on Earth!

"The Galaxy Song" - Eric Idle (Monty Python)

So Happy--Theory Of A Deadman

Put your problems down and pick up what's left of the pain
Take a good look at yourself and see who's really to blame
(Needless to say) You got issues
(There's no fuckin' way) That I'm gonna fix you
(It's never the same) Ever since you went fallin' down, down, down

Dear Enemy--The Exies

My dear enemy, backstabbing me
Like a friend to me, like you seem to be
You think I don't see
You backstabbing me
Like a friend to me
My dear enemy
You're pretending your something you're not
You're collecting a head full of rot
You're self righteous,the butt of the joke
And its a secret,everyone knows

 

[ThatRedWing]

My daddy told me a long time ago
Said there's two things son
Two things you should know
And in these two things you must take pride
That's a horse and woman, yeah
Well both of them you ride

I awoke last night to the sound of thunder
How far off I sat and wondered
Started humming a song from 1962
Ain't it funny how the night moves
When you just don't seem to have as much to lose
Strange how the night moves
With autumn closing in

"Night Moves" - Bob Seger.

Oh I,
I've been searching for an easy way
to escape the cold light of day
I've been high, and I've been low
But I've got nowhere else to go
There's nowhere else to go

I followed orders
God knows where I'd be
But I woke up alone,
all my wounds were clean
I'm still here
I'm still a fool for the Holy Grail
Oh yeah,
I'm a fool for the Holy Grail

"Holy Grail" - Hunters and Collectors

Ryan Adam--Come Pick Me Up

You know you could
I wish you would
Come pick me up
Take me out
Fuck me up
Steal my records
Screw all my friends behind my back
With a smile on your face
And then do it again
I wish you would

I wish you'd make up my bed
So I could make up my mind
Try it for sleeping instead
Maybe you'll rest sometime
I wish I could

White Rabbit - Jefferson Airplane
One pill makes you larger
And one pill makes you small
And the ones that mother gives you
Don't do anything at all
Go ask Alice
When she's ten feet tall

 

[Rane1071]

Out on the patio we’d sit,
And the humidity we’d breathe,
We’d watch the lightning crack over canefields
Laugh and think that this is Australia.

Real World--Matchbox Twenty

I wonder what it's like to be a super hero
I wonder where I'd go if I could fly around downtown
From some other planet, I get this funky high on yellow sun
Boy I bet my friends will all be...stunned, they're stunned

 

[gunslingingbird]

I don't look in the mirror
I don't like what I see staring back at me
Everything is clearer
I'll never see what you see
And I rot in my skin
As a piece of me dies everyday
I know I'm nothing
Because I'm ugly

- Smashing Pumpkins "Ugly"

 

[gunslingingbird]

Remember that night
White stairs in the moonlight

They walked here, too
Through empty playground
This ghosts town

Children again on rusty swings
Getting higher

Sharing a dream
On an island
It felt right

We lay side by side
Between the moon and the tide
Mapping the stars for awhile

Let the night surround you
We're halfway to the stars
Ebb and flow, let it go
Feel the warmth beside you

- David Gilmour "On An Island"

Santa Claus is drinking beer
Trying not to worry
Hearing things he doesn't want to hear
Cause he's in a hurry to say goodbye
To say goodbye

"Apocalypso" - Mental as Anything.

 

[gunslingingbird]

Whomsoever I've cured
I've sickened now
And whomsoever I've cradled
I've put you down

I'm a search light soul
They say
But I can't see it
In the night
I'm only faking when I get it right
When I get it right

'Cause I fell on black days
I fell on black days

- Soundgarden "Fell On Black Days"
