After reading the offshoot of this thread, I can't get THIS song out of my head. no.gif

 

 

Pantera

Walk:

 

Cant you see Im easily bothered by persistence

One step from lashing out at you...

You want in to get under my skin

And call yourself a friend

Ive got more friends like you

What do I do?

 

(pre) is there no standard anymore?

What it takes, who I am, where Ive been

Belong

You cant be something youre not

Be yourself, by yourself

Stay away from me

A lesson learned in life

Known from the dawn of time

 

(chorus) respect, walk

 

Run your mouth when Im not around

Its easy to achieve

You cry to weak friends that sympathize

Can you hear the violins playing you song?

Those same friends tell me your every word

 

(pre)

 

(chorus)

 

Are you talking to me?

No way punk

i heard this one on my way to class this evening...

 

Jeff Buckley

 

 

This is our last goodbye

I hate to feel the love between us die

But it's over

Just hear this and then i'll go

You gave me more to live for

More than you'll ever know

 

This is our last embrace

Must I dream and always see your face

Why can't we overcome this wall

Well, maybe it's just because i didn't know you at all

 

Kiss me, please kiss me

But kiss me out of desire, babe, and not consolation

You know it makes me so angry 'cause i know that in time

I'll only make you cry, this is our last goodbye

 

Did you say 'no, this can't happen to me,'

And did you rush to the phone to call

Was there a voice unkind in the back of your mind

Saying maybe you didn't know him at all

You didn't know him at all, oh, you didn't know

 

Well, the bells out in the church tower chime

Burning clues into this heart of mine

Thinking so hard on her soft eyes and the memories

Offer signs that it's over... it's over

Good morning, good morning

Good morning, good morning

Good morning ah

 

Nothing to do to save his life call his wife in

Nothing to say but what a day how's your boy been

Nothing to do it's up to you

I've got nothing to say but it's OK

 

Good morning, good morning

Good morning ah

 

Going to work don't want to go feeling low down

Heading for home you start to roam then you're in town

Everybody knows there's nothing doing

Everything is closed it's like a ruin

Everyone you see is half asleep

And you're on your own you're in the street

 

After a while you start to smile now you feel cool

Then you decide to take a walk by the old school

Nothing is changed it's still the same

I've got nothing to say but it's OK

 

Good morning, good morning

Good morning ah

 

People running round it's five o'clock

Everywhere in town is getting dark

Everyone you see is full of life

It's time for tea and meet the wife

 

Somebody needs to know the time, glad that I'm here

Watching the skirts you start to flirt now you're in gear

Go to a show you hope she goes

I've got nothing to say but it's OK

 

Good morning, good morning, good

Good morning, good morning, good

Good morning, good morning, good

Good morning, good morning, good

Good morning, good morning, good

Good morning, good morning, good

Good morning, good morning, good

Good morning, good morning, good

Good morning, good morning, good

Good morning, good morning, good

If there's someone you can live without

then do so

And if there's someone you can just shove out

do so

 

You can be my Yoko Ono

You can follow me wherever I go

Be my, be my

Be my Yoko Ono.

 

Isn't it beautiful to see two people so much in love

Barenaked as two virgins hand in hand and hand and hand in glove

Now that I'm far away it doesn't seem to me to be such a pain

To have you hanging off my ankle like some kind of ball and chain

 

Oh no, here we go, our life is just one big pun

Oh no, here we go as Yoko sings

Aiiiieeeeeee!

 

I know that when I say this

I may be stepping on pins and needles

But I don't like all these people

slagging her for breaking up the Beatles

(Don't blame it on Yokey)

if I was John and you were Yoko

I would gladly give up musical genius

just to have you as my very own personal Venus

 

You can be my Yoko Ono

You can follow me wherever I go

Be my, be my

Be my Yoko Ono

This is for my sissy, Closer2Heart.

Goddess, you rock 1022.gif and I love you wub.gif

 

And the men who hold high places

Must be the ones to start

To mold a new reality

Closer to the Heart

 

The Blacksmith and the Artist

Reflect it in their art

Forge their creativity

Closer to the Heart

 

Philosophers and Ploughmen

Each must know his part

To sow a new mentality

Closer to the Heart

 

You can be the Captain

I will draw the Chart

Sailing into destiny

Closer to the Heart

This is for my friend hermy, for keeping me company many a day and many fun potty mouth Fridays wub.gif

 

Begin the day

With a friendly voice,

A companion, unobtrusive

Plays the song that's so elusive

And the magic music makes your morning mood

 

Off on your way

Hit the open road,

There is magic at your fingers

For the Spirit ever lingers,

Undemanding contact In your happy solitude.

 

Invisible airwaves

Crackle with life

Bright antennae bristle

With the energy

Emotional feedback

On timeless wavelength

Bearing a gift beyond price-

Almost free...

 

All this machinery

Making modern music

Can still be open-hearted

Not so coldly charted

It's really just a question

Of your honesty

 

One likes to believe

In the freedom of music,

But glittering prizes

And endless compromises

Shatter the illusion

Of integrity.

 

"For the words of the profits,

Are written on the studio wall,

Concert hall -

Echoes with the sounds...

Of salesmen."

Well, let me put it to you nice.

I said you need a friend,

someone who'll stick with you to the end.

 

Take yourself a friend.

Keep 'em till the end.

Whether woman or man,

it makes you feel so good,

so good.

Ken, you know how much you mean to me. You have been here for me every day and you know I appreciate that more than words can say. I love you with all my heart and thank you for being my friend. heart.gif

 

Now it's come to this

It's like we're back in the Dark Ages

From the Middle East to the Middle West

It's a world of superstition

 

Now it's come to this

Wide-eyed armies of the faithful

From the Middle East to the Middle West

Pray, and pass the ammunition

 

So many people think that way

You gotta watch what you say

To them and them, and others too

Who don't seem to see to things the way you do

 

We can only grow the way the wind blows

On a bare and weathered shore

We can only bow to the here and now

In our elemental war

 

We can only go the way the wind blows

We can only bow to the here and now

Or be broken down blow by blow

 

Now it's come to this

Hollow speeches of mass deception

From the Middle East to the Middle West

Like crusaders in unholy alliance

 

Now it's come to this

Like we're back in the Dark Ages

From the Middle East to the Middle West

It's a plague that resists all science

 

It seems to leave them partly blind

And they leave no child behind

While evil spirits haunt their sleep

While shepherds bless and count their sheep

 

Like the solitary pine

On a bare wind-blasted shore

We can only grow the way the wind blows

For all my friends.

You guys are the best. Simply THE BEST. I wouldn't trade yous for anything.

 

With all my love, you are my God sent angels

 

How many times

Do we tire of all the little battles

Threaten to call it quits

Tempted to cut and run

 

How many times

Do we weather out the stormy evenings

Long to slam the front door

Drive away into the setting sun

 

Keep going until dawn

How many times must another line be drawn

We could be down and gone

But we hold on

 

How many times

Do we chaff against the repetition

Straining against a fate

Measured out in coffee breaks

 

How many times

Do we swallow our ambition

Long to give up the same old way

Find another road to take

 

Keep holding on so long

'Cause there's a chance

that we might not be so wrong

We could be down and gone

But we hold on

 

How many times

Do we wonder if it's even worth it

There's got to be some other way

To get me through the day

 

But we hold on

OK. Now to set something straight.

Everyone seems to know what I was thinking when I opened this thread. Maybe I should have been more specific in wording but this was when I first joined and didn't know diddly squat. I don't care if you have one stanza, one word, one song, a whole album or a whole discography stuck in your head.

 

SING IT! Sing what's on your mind, sing what's in your heart, sing cause you're happy, cause you're sad or just cause you feel like it. That was the point. I sometimes get a whole string of songs in my head that speak to me or describe my mood.

 

If anyone cares to go to the first post, this thread was opened for "the cheese" so he could sing his heart out. For those who don't know who cheese was, his name is Ken. I DO read every song he posts. They're like messages, even if not specifically dedicated.

 

I understand about not wanting spam, to ME it wasn't. Just my two cents. I don't wanna talk about it anymore in here. I see the thread's been split and locked, so I'm posting it in here. Don't want answers, don't want arguments, just thought I'd let everyone know what my intent was for this thread.

 

So, GO FORTH AND SING YOUR HEARTS OUT !!!!

Want To Change Things

Want To Clear The Air

Fix The Things Around Us

So Badly In Need Of Repair

But I Might Not Have The Sense

Sense Enough To Change

Driving away to the east, and into the past

History receeds in my rear-view mirror

Carried away on a wave of music down a desert road

Memory humming at the heart of a factory town

 

All my life

I've been workin' them angels overtime

Riding and driving and living

So close to the edge

Workin' them angels - Overtime

 

Riding through the Range of Light to the wounded city

Filling my spirit with the wildest wish to fly

Taking the high road to the wounded city

Memory strumming at the heart of a moving picture

 

All this time

I've been workin' them angels overtime

Riding and driving and flying

Just over the edge

Workin' them angels - Overtime

 

Driving down the razor's edge 'tween the past and the future

Turn up the music and smile

Get carried away on the songs and stories of vanished times

Memory drumming at the heart of an English winter

Memories beating at the heart of an African village

First song of this day:

 

Sing, bird of prey;

Beauty begins at the foot of you. Do you believe the manner?

Gold stainless nail,

Torn through the distance of man

As they regard the summit.

 

Even Siberia goes through the motions.

Hold out and hold up;

Hold down the window. Outbound, river,

Hold out the morning that comes into view. Bluetail, tailfly.

River running right on over my head.

 

How does she sing?

Who holds the ring? And ring and you will find me coming.

Cold reigning king,

Hold all the secrets from you

As they produce the movement.

 

Even Siberia goes through the motions.

Hold out and hold up;

Hold down the window. Outbound, river,

Hold out the morning that comes into view. Bluetail, tailfly.

River running right over the outboard, river,

Bluetail, tailfly,

Luther, in time.

Dood'ndoodit, dah, d't-d't-dah.

 

Hold down the window;

Hold out the morning that comes into view.

Warm side, the tower;

Green leaves reveal the heart spoken Khatru.

 

Gold stainless nail,

Torn through the distance of man as they regard the summit.

Cold reigning king,

Shelter the women that sing

As they produce the movement.

River running right on over,

Then over my head. Outboard, river.

 

Bluetail, tailfly,

Luther, in time,

Suntower, asking,

Cover, lover,

June cast, moon fast,

As one changes,

Heart gold, leaver,

Soul mark, mover,

Christian, changer,

Called out, saviour,

Moon gate, climber,

Turn round, glider.

Not a lot is missing

Every ounce of treasure found

And I believe that everyone should get what

Theyre allowed

Suspected of belief that comes suspended

In a sound

And everybody wants some

 

Its the sound they make in heaven

Its a sound for here on earth

Ive heard it in the whispering

Of the wonders that we search

Weve waited far too long

To hear the healing of the stars

n everybody wants some

 

Everybody wants some

Everybody wants some

Everybody wants some

Everybody wants some

To feel alive

 

Oh - does it get much better than this

Oh - does it get much better, much better

Oh - does it get much better than this, than this

 

Theres the sound that keeps you trying

Theres the sound that makes you smile

Theres a sound in every corner

Of the world that we survive

 

Your temple is the harmony

You feel the sacred ground

Just wishing for the secret

To appear within the sound

Watching for the morning star

The rhythm of the sun

I hear it in my waking dreams

The singing has begun

 

The passion that we walk upon

The passion that we bring

Is written for the mountains

They love to hear us sing

 

Everybody wants some

Everybody wants some

Everybody wants some

Everybody wants some

To feel alive

 

Oh - doesnt get much better than this

Oh - doesnt get much better than this, than this

 

Who made me make believe

Im alive Im living

Never underestimate

The signals coming to you

Oh, the sounding of the earth

It shakes you, yes it shakes you

Oh, the sounding of the earth

It shakes you, let it shake you

 

Hep yadda

Hep yadda

There Was A Girl Who Loved A Biker

She Used To Follow Him Across America

But The Biker Didn't Like Her.

 

She Didn't Care, She Still Persisted

Though Her Brother Said She Was Twisted

And The Family Said They Wouldn't Miss Her

Anyway.

 

She Loved The Biker Like An Icon

Gazing At His Picture Everyday.

She Loved The Biker Like An Icon

Slowly Watching Precious Water Drip Away.

 

She Did Her Best To Fix A Meeting

She Pulled It Off One Night In Hollywood

When He Met Her He Couldn't Let Her Get Away.

 

He Didn't Ask For Her Permission

He Took Advantage Of Her Position

But He Was Always Her Ambitiion

Anyway.

 

She Loved The Biker Like An Icon

Gazing At His Picture Everyday.

She Loved The Biker Like An Icon

Slowly Watching Precious Water Drip Away.

 

The Family Tried So Hard To Find Her

They Showed Her Picture Across America.

But No Trace Of Her Sweet Face

Was Ever Found.

Pack up all those phantoms

Shoulder that invisible load

Keep on riding north and west

Haunting that wilderness road

Like a ghost rider

 

Carry all those phantoms

Through bitter wind and stormy skies

From the desert to the mountain

From the lowest low to the highest high

Like a ghost rider

 

Keep on riding North and West

Then circle South and East

Show me beauty, but there is no peace

For the ghost rider

 

Shadows on the road behind

Shadows on the road ahead

Nothing can stop you now

 

There's a shadow on the road behind

There's a shadow on the road ahead

Nothing can stop you now

 

Sunrise in the mirror

Lightens that invisible load

Riding on a nameless quest

Haunting that wilderness road

Like a ghost rider

 

Just an escape artist

Racing against the night

A wandering hermit

Racing toward the light

 

From the White Sands

To the Canyonlands

To the redwood stands

To the Barren Lands

 

Sunrise on the road behind

Sunset on the road ahead

There's nothing to stop you now

Nothing can stop you now

Heard this in the car on the way home from Ann Arbor last night...

 

Dedicated to those who are searching...

seeking...

trying...

to believe.

(you know who you are... wink.gif wub.gif )

 

Better Life: Vega4

 

 

Something that she said has got me

dreaming like i'm you

feeling blown out fuse

and now i'm falling out

 

hey hey hey, it's alright

 

its alright, we can fly

we're reaching for a better life

its alright, the good will come around

 

you spit me out you made me dream

you played for keeps again

now you know that tired and broken

feeling that i feel gives me hell

 

and its something that she said has

got me dreaming like i'm you

i'm buzzed up like a neon red light

feeling blown out fuse

 

hey hey hey, it's alright

 

its alright, we can fly

we're reaching for a better life

its alright, the good will come around

 

its alright, we can fly

somewhere there's a better life

its alright, the good will come around

 

and if you believe the music will take

you home again

love if you believe the music you're home

 

its alright, we can fly

somewhere there's a better life

its alright, the good will come around

He's got a road map of Jupiter

A radar fix on the stars

All along the highway

She's got a liquid-crystal compass

A picture book of the rivers

Under the Sahara

 

They travel in the time of the prophets

On a desert highway straight to the heart of the sun

Like lovers and hereos, and the restless part of everyone

We're only at home when we're on the run

On the run

 

He's got a star map of Hollywood

A list of cheap motels

All along the freeway

She's got a sister out in Vegas

The promise of a decent job

Far away from her hometown

 

They travel on the road to redemption

A highway out of yesterday - that tomorrow will bring

Like lovers and heroes, birds in the last days of spring

We're only at home when we're on the wing

On the wing

 

WHEN WE ARE YOUNG

WANDERING THE FACE OF THE EARTH

WONDERING WHAT OUR DREAMS MIGHT BE WORTH

LEARNING THAT WE'RE ONLY IMMORTAL -

FOR A LIMITED TIME

 

Time is a gypsy caravan

Steals away in the night

To leave you stranded in Dreamland

Distance is a long-range filter

Memory a flickering light

Left behind in the heartland

 

We travel in the dark of the new moon

A starry highway traced on the map of the sky

Like lovers and heroes, lonely as the eagle's cry

We're only at home when we're on the fly

On the fly

 

We travel on the road to adventure

On a desert highway straight to the heart of the sun

Like lovers and hereos, and the restless part of everyone

We're only at home when we're on the run

On the run...
