OriginalFan Posted February 21, 2008 Share Posted February 21, 2008 Another endless day Silhouettes of grey Another glass of wine Drink with eyes that shine To days without that chill at morning Nights time out of mind Draw another goblet From the cask of '43 Crimson misty memory Hazy glimpse of me Give me back my wonder I've something more to give I guess it doesn't matter There's not much more to live Another foggy dawn The mountain almost gone Another doubtful fear The road is not so clear My soul grows ever weary And the end is ever near Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always felt One Hot Minute was a very unfairly treated Red Hot Chili Peppers albums. Here's my favourite from that record; You are my god, you are my dog You kept me close, love never lost I called you hippie, you said f**k off Said your brother's a real punk rocker [Refrain:] Something gonna happen Something very soon Transcending flesh could be a breeze Sending me oh over the Moon Friends near death, you gave respect Sympathetic Intellect Choices are, for one and all All we are is, leaves that fall Round and round inside your head Smartest f*cker I ever met Vicious fish bit at your toes Made you lie and numb your soul [Refrain] Mule donkey ass you bore the load Of all creations tortured souls Choices are, for one and all All we are is, leaves that fall Hey, gone to stay Entire lifetime flash before me In a loving stream Hey mother may I have lost a child But she gave birth To a loving stream Ooh, never know. When the gods will come and Take you To a loving stream Ooh, heart of gold The most special things you gave me were From your loving stream In a loving stream f**k the magazines f**k the green machine See the human being In a loving stream f**k the legal greed f**k the nothing scene See the family In a loving stream Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However their decision to play Me And My Friends in Sheffield last Summer was amazing!!! Even though 80% of the people there had never heard it before. However all that doesn't explain the absense of Mother's Milk material which J.F. was certainly involved in writing/playing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That blackeyed beauty with the golden crotch French electric sex a cock shocking swamp fox Heaten queen of sleeze she's hot to box But let me tell you little boy She'll clean your clock A slick and sly spy Stuck in the muck of the moat Blew his mind to find a diamond in the boat Double-o-dooms day for Mr. James Bond She's the blackeyed blackeyed Blackeyed blonde, Get down!

Lerxster Posted February 23, 2008 Share Posted February 23, 2008 2nd page Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, ahhhhhh, We come from the land of the ice and snow, From the midnight sun where the hot springs blow. The hammer of the gods will drive our ships to new lands, To fight the horde, singing and crying: Valhalla, I am coming! On we sweep with threshing oar, Our only goal will be the western shore. Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, ahhhhhh, We come from the land of the ice and snow, From the midnight sun where the hot springs blow. How soft your fields so green, can whisper tales of gore, Of how we calmed the tides of war. We are your overlords. On we sweep with threshing oar, Our only goal will be the western shore. So now you'd better stop and rebuild all your ruins, For peace and trust can win the day despite of all your losing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lerxster Posted February 24, 2008 Share Posted February 24, 2008 Spent my days with a woman unkind, Smoked my stuff and drank all my wine. Made up my mind to make a new start, Going To California with an aching in my heart. Someone told me there's a girl out there with love in her eyes and flowers in her hair. Took my chances on a big jet plane, never let them tell you that they're all the same. The sea was red and the sky was grey, wondered how tomorrow could ever follow today. The mountains and the canyons started to tremble and shake as the children of the sun began to awake. Seems that the wrath of the Gods Got a punch on the nose and it started to flow; I think I might be sinking. Throw me a line if I reach it in time I'll meet you up there where the path Runs straight and high. To find a queen without a king, They say she plays guitar and cries and sings... la la la Ride a white mare in the footsteps of dawn Tryin' to find a woman who's never, never, never been born. Standing on a hill in my mountain of dreams, Telling myself it's not as hard, hard, hard as it seems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheRocinanteKid Posted February 24, 2008 Share Posted February 24, 2008 The Mars Volta - Ouroboros I am loving this song... It appears to me Quoting alarms The guillotine smirks In your house I smothered Sight unseen Sworn to harm Ground to a powder And soaked through the board [Chorus 1] Don't you ever, ever, ever trust my mercy Don't you ever, ever, ever trust my mercy When will you flirt with all that's burning? Keep them safe and by your side Of all that's left A lucid home Anecdote settles in the smear of this corpse If the larvae speaks ask where to go They mount the maker with a sulphur in fume [Chorus 1] [Chorus 2] Of all the warnings that you gave me With all components in the fault Have you ever heard me scraping? It will be hard to hold [Chorus] [Chorus 2] All I hear Mending the gap Fall in here Might not make it back Call that someone May they hear you Take me with you It's not safe in here And all you ask is why, why, why And all you ask is why I'm certain you're holding on Mirror floats to the surface Holding on [Chorus 2] [x2] They lost the presence they were holding Looks like the tenants flickered off If the cell that holds me breaks me It will be hard to hold Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRocinanteKid Posted February 24, 2008 Share Posted February 24, 2008 The smile of dawn Arrived early May She carried a gift from her home The night shed a tear To tell her of fear And of sorrow and pain She'll never outgrow Death is the first dance, eternal There's no more freedom The both of you will be confined to this mind I was told there's miracle for each day that I try I was told there's a new love that's born for each one that has died I was told there'd be no one to call on when I feel alone and afraid I was told if you dream of the next world You'll find yourself swimming in a lake of fire As a child, I thought I could live without pain without sorrow As a man I've found it's all caught up with me I'm asleep yet I'm so afraid Somewhere like a scene from a memory There's a picture worth a thousand words Eluding stares from faces before me It hides away and will never be heard of again Deceit is the second without end The city's cold blood teaches us to survive Just keep my heart in your eyes and we'll stay alive The third arrives... Before the leaves have fallen Before we lock the doors There must be the third and last dance This one will last forever Metropolis watches and thoughtfully smiles She's taken you to your home It can only take place When the struggle between our children has ended Now the Miracle and the Sleeper know that the third is love Love is the Dance of Eternity Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lerxster Posted February 25, 2008 Share Posted February 25, 2008 Why try? I know why The feeling inside me says it's time I was gone Clear head, new life ahead I want to be king now not just one more pawn Fly by night, away from here Change my life again Fly by night goodbye my dear My ship isn't coming and I just can't pretend Moon rise, thoughtful eyes Staring back at me from the window beside No fright or hindsight Leaving behind that empty feeling inside Fly by night, away from here Change my life again Fly by night goodbye my dear My ship isn't coming and I just can't pretend righteous Alex solo Fly by night, away from here Change my life again Fly by night goodbye my dear My ship isn't coming and I just can't pretend Start a new chapter Find what I'm after It's changing every day The change of a season Is enough of a reason To want to get away Quiet and pensive My thoughts apprehensive The hours drift away Leaving my homeland Playing a lone hand My life begins today Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lerxster Posted February 25, 2008 Share Posted February 25, 2008 this song started playing in my head as i awoke from in my bed (the John's solo specifically) Scar tissue that I wish you saw Sarcastic mister know it all Close your eyes and I'll kiss you 'cause With the birds I'll share With the birds I'll share This lonely view With the birds I'll share This lonely view Push me up against the wall Young Kentucky girl in a push-up bra Fallin' all over myself To lick your heart and taste your health 'cause With the birds I'llshare This lonely view... Blood loss in a bathroom stall Southern girl with a scarlet drawl Wave good-bye to ma and pa 'cause With the birds I'll share With the birds I'll share This lonely view With the birds I'll share This lonely view Soft spoken with a broken jaw Step outside but not to brawl Autumn's sweet we call it fall I'll make it to the moon if I have to crawl and With the birds I'll share This lonely view...

Lerxster Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 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 on till dawn How many times must another line be drawn We could be down and gone But we hold on How many times Do we chafe 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 Theres got to be some other way Way to get me through the day Keep going on till dawn How many times must another line be drawn We could be down and gone But we hold on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRocinanteKid Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 Little by little the night turns around Counting the leaves which tremble at dawn Novices lean on each other in yearning Under the leaves the swallow is resting Set the controls for the heart of the sun Over the mountain watching the watcher Breaking the darkness waking the grapevine One inch of love is one inch of shadow Love is the shadow that ripen's the wine Set the controls for the heart of the sun The heart of the sun The heart of the sun Witness the man who raves at the wall Making the shape of his question to heaven Whether the sun will fall in the evening Will he remember the lesson of giving Set the controls for the heart of the sun The heart of the sun The heart of the sun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
