Placebo - Allergic (To Thoughts Of Mother Earth)

Any means in your horizon

Heaven in a tourniquet

The after life to keep your eyes on

Bitter pill you take today

With expert levitation forward,

Polished to the nth degree

It takes it's smile from every children,

You take the beating.

 

Any means in your horizon

Every mink walks two by two

We gamble to be born again

You know I never wanted to

With expert levitation forward,

Polished to the nth degree

It takes it's smile from every children

You take the beating.

 

The light divining

The light defining

The light divining

The light dividing.

 

Don't let me down,

Let me

Let me down,

Don't let me,

Don't let me down,

Let me,

Let me down,

Let me.

 

The light divining

The light defining

The light divining

The light dividing.

The Man Who Would Be Santa- Vertical Horizon

 

And the man who would be Santa slips into the room

And the hour of daylight's yet to come but he hopes they don't wake too soon

All the presents wrapped in paper and tied with a bow

The children sleep upstairs and Santa works below

And he can hear the children dreaming

 

And he says

All I want is for you to have

A life you love and live

Take from me all I have to give

Because you are in my heart

 

And the man who would be Santa tells his son to write

And to call him if he needs him in the middle of the night

Don't you worry don't you cry now you'll do just fine

Your mother and I love you

We think about you all the time

And he can see the train is leaving

 

 

Now the old man sits and tells of days when time stood still

The hours always seem to fade but the memory never will

All the love that you gave me

All the dreams in the night

And I just want to thank you while the day's still light

But I can see the sun is setting

See You Soon

 

so you lost your trust

and you never shared half

no you never shared half

don't break your back

if you ever see this

don't answer that

 

in a bulletproof vest with the windows all closed

i'll be doing my best

i'll see you soon

in a telescope lens

and when all you want is friends

i'll see you soon

 

so they came for you

they came snapping at your heels

they came snapping at your heels

but don't break your back

if you ever say this

don't answer that

 

in a bulletproof vest with the windows all closed

i'll be doing my best

i'll see you soon

in a telescope lens

and when all you want is friends

i'll see you soon

i'll see you soon

 

love

you lost your trust

love

you lost your trust

love

don't lose your trust

love

you lost your trust

Us and Them- Pink Floyd

 

Us, and them

And after all we’re only ordinary men.

Me, and you.

God only knows it’s noz what we would choose to do.

Forward he cried from the rear

And the front rank died.

And the general sat and the lines on the map

Moved from side to side.

Black and blue

And who knows which is which and who is who.

Up and down.

But in the end it’s only round and round.

Haven’t you heard it’s a battle of words

The poster bearer cried.

Listen son, said the man with the gun

There’s room for you inside.

 

I mean, they’re not gonna kill ya, so if you give ’em a quick short,

Sharp, shock, they won’t do it again. dig it? I mean he get off

Lightly, ’cos I would’ve given him a thrashing - I only hit him once!

It was only a difference of opinion, but really...i mean good manners

Don’t cost nothing do they, eh?

 

Down and out

It can’t be helped but there’s a lot of it about.

With, without.

And who’ll deny it’s what the fighting’s all about?

Out of the way, it’s a busy day

I’ve got things on my mind.

For the want of the price of tea and a slice

The old man died.

THE MAN WHO SOLD THE WORLD

- Album: The Man Who Sold The World

- Lyrics and music by David Bowie

 

We passed upon the stair, we spoke of was and when

Although I wasn't there, he said I was his friend

Which came as some surprise I spoke into his eyes

I thought you died alone, a long long time ago

 

Oh no, not me

I never lost control

You're face to face

With The Man Who Sold The World

 

I laughed and shook his hand, and made my way back home

I searched for form and land, for years and years I roamed

I gazed a gazely stare at all the millions here

We must have died along, a long long time ago

 

Who knows? not me

We never lost control

You're face to face

With the Man who Sold the World

 

Who knows? not me

We never lost control

You're face to face

With the Man who Sold the World

Stoned by Dido

 

When you're stoned, baby, I am drunk

We make love seems a little desolate

It's hard sometimes not to look away

And think what's the point when I'm having to hold this fire down

I think I'll explode if I can't feel this free now

 

[Chorus:]

If you won't let me fall for you

Then you won't see the best things I would love to do for you

Instead you will be missing me when I go

Cos' I'm bored of hangin out in your cold

 

When I feel loved baby, I join the road

And the world moves with me

I feel lovst I just slip away

Silently, quietly take my things and go

And think what's the point, think where's the hope we're coming home

 

[Chorus]

 

And if you find one day, find some freedom and relief

With this freedom maybe, maybe you will find some peace

With this peace baby, I hope it brings you back to me

Bring you home, take me home

 

[Chorus]

 

Oh, take me home

Oh, take me home

When you're stoned, baby, take me home

Oh...

Colorblind - Counting Crows

 

I am colorblind

Coffee black and egg white

Pull me out from inside

I am ready

I am ready

I am ready

I am

Taffy stuck, tongue tied

Stuttered shook and uptight

Pull me out from inside

I am ready

I am ready

I am ready

I am...fine

I am covered in skin

No one gets to come in

Pull me out from inside

I am folded, and unfolded, and unfolding

I am

colorblind

Coffee black and egg white

Pull me out from inside

I am ready

I am ready

I am ready

I am...fine

I am.... fine

I am fine

Mmmm hmm. I like that song, even though it is quite depressing....

 

Wildflower- Jackopierce

 

Sweet darling country girl

Got her hair tied back in a bow

Walking long and dusty miles

Down a gravel gray Texas road

 

Her butterfly eyes have seen

the Coming of ten thousand wildflowers

Her eyes have seen the coming of wildflowers

 

Tiptop of Texas on the handle of the land

The boy who would be cowboy rides on VW van

Bringing everything about him that she can have

If she can

He's got himself a mind for wildflowers

He's coming long miles for his wildflowers

Wildflowers

Wildflowers....

Jamiroquai - King For A Day

 

There's no way

I'm coming back to you

I've just got to say

That everything we did is through

You tried to undermine

The better ranges of my nature

But soon you're going to find

You should have started talking straighter

Now don't you worry

I won't put you down

I'm in no hurry, baby

To see you go to ground

Because it's true what they say

You know it's true what they say

You're only king for a day

I guess you're happy that way

 

Well there's no hope

For peace and reconciliation

You're quick to play your hand

But what you haven't learnt is patience

So look before you leap

To tell the world your coloured story

It's clear your talk is cheap

You'd do anything to get your glory

So spread your wings and fly

There is no doubt

You're so sorry inside you've got something to shout about

Because it's true what they say

You know it's true what they say

You're only king for a day

I guess you're happy that way

 

And there's no love

Ever to be lost between us

I guess this is because

The damage that you've done is so grievous

So I hang my head

To dwell on what might have been

But what you left instead

Is pieces of a broken dream

 

Now don't you worry

I won't put you down

I'm in no hurry, baby

To see you go to ground

Because it's true what they say

You know it's true what they say

You're only king for a day

I guess you're happy that way

 

So spread your wings and fly

There is no doubt

You're so sorry inside you've

Got something to, something to shout about

 

Because it's true what they say

You know it's true what they say

You're only king for a day

I guess you're happy that way

 

Don't you see that you're only king for a day

You must believe that

When The World Was Running Down, You Make The Best of What's Still Around- The Police

 

Turn on my V.C.R.

Same one I've had for years

James Brown on the Tammy show

Same tape I've had for years

I sit in my old car

Same one I've had for years

Old battery's running down

It ran for years and years

 

Turn on the radio

The static hurts my ears

Tell me where would I go

I ain't been out in years

Turn on the stereo

It's played for years and years

An Otis Redding song

It's all I own

 

When the world is running down

You make the best of what's still around

When the world is running down

You make the best of what's still around

 

Plug in my M.C.I

To excercise my brain

Make records on my own

Can't go out in the rain

Pick up the telephone

I've listened here for years

No one to talk to me

I've listened here for years

 

When the world is running down

You make the best of what's still around

When the world is running down

You make the best of what's still around

 

When I feel lonely here

Don't waste my time with tears

I run 'Deep Throat' again

It ran for years and years

Don't like the food I eat

The cans are running out

Same food for years and years

I hate the food I eat

 

When the world is running down

You make the best of what's still around

When the world is running down

You make the best of what's still around

 

When the world is running down

You make the best of what's still around

When the world is running down

You make the best of what's still around

Prison Song- System of A Down

 

They're trying to build a prison,

They're trying to build a prison,

 

Following the rights movements

You clamped on with your iron fists,

Drugs became conveniently

Available for all the kids,

Following the rights movements

You clamped on with your iron fists,

Drugs became conveniently

Available for all the kids,

 

I buy my crack, my smack, my bitch

right here in Hollywood.

 

Nearly 2 million Americans are incarcerated

In the prison system, prison system,

Prison system of the U.S.

 

They're trying to build a prison,

They're trying to build a prison,

They're trying to build a prison, (for you and me to live in)

Another prison system,

Another prison system,

Another prison system. (for you and me to live in)

 

Minor drug offenders fill your prisons

You don't even flinch

All our taxes paying for your wars

Against the new non-rich,

Minor drug offenders fill your prisons

You don't even flinch

All our taxes paying for your wars

Against the new non-rich,

 

I buy my crack, my smack, my bitch

right here in Hollywood.

 

The percentage of Americans in the prison system

Prison system, has doubled since 1985,

 

They're trying to build a prison,

They're trying to build a prison,

They're trying to build a prison, (for you and me to live in)

Another prison system,

Another prison system,

Another prison system. (for you and me to live in)

For you and I, for you and I , for you and I.

 

They're trying to build a prison,

They're trying to build a prison,

They're trying to build a prison,

For you and me,

Oh baby, you and me.

 

All research and successful drug policy show

That treatment should be increased,

And law enforcement decreased,

While abolishing mandatory minimum sentences,

All research and successful drug policy show

That treatment should be increased,

And law enforcement decreased,

While abolishing mandatory minimum sentences.

 

Utilizing drugs to pay for secret wars around the world,

Drugs are now your global policy,

Now you police the globe,

 

I buy my crack, my smack, my bitch

right here in Hollywood.

 

Drug money is used to rig elections,

And train brutal corporate sponsored

Dictators around the world.

 

They're trying to build a prison,

They're trying to build a prison,

They're trying to build a prison, (for you and me to live in)

Another prison system,

Another prison system,

Another prison system. (for you and me to live in)

For you and I, for you and I , for you and I.

They're trying to build a prison,

They're trying to build a prison,

They're trying to build a prison,

For you and me,

Oh baby, you and me.

 

Is it just me...or does this song sound a little anti-american? :stunned: :idea2:

Awesome song...

 

Asleep In The Back - Elbow

 

Were you crushed

Did I rush you

All my time is yours

My twisted heart is yours

The faithless shit is yours

The shameless fits of love that only smother you for moments

Until I fold them up and leave

All yours

 

(chorus)

Oh you had to ask didn’t you (x2)

Oh you had to know

 

Show your scars

Not to rush you

The hieroglyphic hints in all the toilet scrawl

Guilty little pins

And all the things I never talk about

Are spilling with the gin

Test how tough you are

All yours

 

(chorus)

 

Not to rush you

South - "Fragile Day"

 

An angel lost its wings

Amongst the bags and things

Disclosed amounts of greed creep in daily

And though naive at first

You must be quick to learn

It's not the words that hurt

So save them

 

Memories, meant for me

 

Take all the time in the world

All the time you deserve

You'll be lost, you'll be free

 

Now the luck is found

Our feet wont touch the ground

Might not be the first in line, still we stand by

Cut by broken glass

Leaves splinter in our path

Be guided by our thoughts so hold that

Memories, meant for me

 

I wont guess forever, given chance is slender

For each fragile day and fail to capture thoughts

The restless side has gone away

Breathe out, never forget this fragile day

Lift this fragile weight

Simple Things Part 2 - Dirty Vegas

 

Yes I've run a mile in my head

Didn't listen to the things that you said

But it's the simple things that make you smile

It's the simple things that make you smile

 

So what went wrong?

Was it me that let you down again?

So what went wrong?

How could I ever lose my best friend?

 

Cause I've climbed these walls to clear my head

Thought I was something more but I'm a fool instead

But it's the simple things that make you smile

It's the simple things that make you smile

 

So what went wrong?

Was it me that let you down again?

So what went wrong?

How could I ever lose my best friend?

 

So what went wrong?

Was it me that let you down again?

So what went wrong?

How could I ever lose my best friend?

 

But it's the simple things

It's the simple things that make you smile

It's the simple things

It's the simple things that make you smile

 

But it's the simple things

It's the simple things that make you smile

It's the simple things

It's the simple things that make you smile

I´m not a fan of Christina Aguilera, but I really like this lyrics and I would like to dedicate to my perv sista Maria :)

 

Beautiful

 

Don't look at me

 

Every day is so wonderful

And suddenly, it's hard to breathe

Now and then, I get insecure

From all the fame, I'm so ashamed

 

I am beautiful no matter what they say

Words can't bring me down

I am beautiful in every single way

Yes, words can't bring me down

So don't you bring me down today

 

To all your friends, you're delirious

So consumed in all your doom

Trying hard to fill the emptiness

The piece is gone and the puzzle undone

That's the way it is

 

You are beautiful no matter what they say

Words won't bring you down

You are beautiful in every single way

Yes, words won't bring you down

Don't you bring me down today...

 

No matter what we do

(no matter what we do)

No matter what they say

(no matter what they say)

When the sun is shining through

Then the clouds won't stay

 

And everywhere we go

(everywhere we go)

The sun won't always shine

(sun won't always shine)

But tomorrow will find a way

All the other times

 

We are beautiful no matter what they say

Yes, words won't bring us down

We are beautiful no matter what they say

Yes, words can't bring us down

Don't you bring me down today

 

Don't you bring me down today

Don't you bring me down today

Radiohead - 2 + 2 = 5

 

Are you such a dreamer

To put the world to rights?

I'll stay home forever

Where two and two always makes up five

 

I'll lay down the tracks

Sandbag and hide

January has April showers

When two and two always makes up five

 

It's the devil's way now

There is no way out

You can scream and you can shout

It is too late now

BECAUSE YOU HAVE NOT BEEN PAYING ATTENTION

 

And I try to sing along

But I get it all wrong

Cos I'm not

And I swallow like flies

But like flies the buggers keep coming back

But I'm not

All hail to the thief

All hail to the thief

But I'm not

 

Don't question my authority

Or put me in the docks

Cos I'm not

Go and tell the king

That that sky is falling in

When it's not

 

Maybe not

Zero 7 - Destiny

 

I lie awake

I’ve gone to ground

I’m watching porn

In my hotel dressing gown

And now I dream of you

But I still believe

There’s only enough for one in this

Lonely hotel suite

 

The journey’s long

And it feels so bad

I’m thinking back to the last day we had.

Old moon fades into the new

Soon I know I’ll be back with you

I'm nearly with you

I'm nearly with you

 

When I’m weak I draw strength from you

And when you’re lost I know how to change your mood

And when I’m down you breathe life over me

Even though we’re miles apart we are each other’s destiny

 

On a clear day

I’ll fly home to you

I’m bending time getting back to you

Old moon fades into the new

And soon I know I’ll be back with you

I’m nearly with you

I’m nearly with you

 

When I’m weak I draw strength from you

And when you’re lost I know how to change your mood

And when I’m down you breathe life over me

Even though we’re miles apart we are each other’s destiny

 

When I’m weak I draw strength from you

And when you’re lost I know how to change your mood

And when I’m down you breathe life over me

Even though we’re miles apart we are each other’s destiny

 

I’ll fly, I’ll fly home

I’ll fly home and I’ll fly home

Sammie, you like Dirty Vegas? I thought I was the only one here who had heard of them before...

 

Goddamm'it, I don't know why anyone doesn't check out this band here...they're fucking incredible.

 

River- Jackopierce

 

Complain

but she never agreed to maintain

her senses

so the point's not worth the flight

Blames's what she don't take

but places wherever she finds it fit

 

Lately she's been saying things

behind the back he know's are not but lies

And anyway what can he say

there's a little truth in every twisted line

 

Chorus:

But I remember everything

and nothing ever changes

but what you blame it on today

 

Believe me

he's been grieving for good reason

still it seems a little much this time

Before it started he was always the martyr

and every girl was the one worth dying for

 

But lately

even he's been saying things behind her back

he know's are not but lies

Anyway what can she say

there's a little truth in every twisted line

 

Chorus:

But I remember everything

nothing every changes

What you blame it on today

 

Betray me, It'll save me

give me a reason, she said, to

open up my eyes

Before it started he was always the martyr

and every girl was the one

worth dying for

Black Rebel Motorcycle Club - Rise Or Fall

 

Please don't suffer, God just make it quick

With all you've had you don't know what it takes to beg

You've lost your cause, lost your time to kill

You won't matter much when they've all got their fill

 

Mothers teach you to crawl

Fathers teach you to rise or fall

Mothers grieve for us all

Fathers teach you you're on your own

 

I won't quiver, I don't squirm or sweat

Your heart's not gone but you've nothing to make a fist

Sooner or later I'll just flip the switch

Forget what you did or you won't know how to face this hell

 

Mothers teach you to crawl

Fathers teach you to rise or fall

Mothers grieve for us all

Fathers teach you to take it on

 

All my fears awakening I left them back

All this flashed before my eyes, I never had

Words no conselation, none will suffice

Walk my son I've taught you well,

You're on your way down

 

Fuck the past I hope it goes well (You're gonna lie with your curse as you made it)

They're coming fast and you got nothing left to sell (You never saw with your cause there's a conscience)

In the end you've got no answers (You're gonna lie with your curse as you made it)

So much pain here you don't know how to take my hand (You never saw with your cause there's a conscience)

 

Mothers teach you to crawl

Fathers teach you to rise or fall

Theres no dream for us all

You've never seen what you're reaching for

Mothers teach you to crawl

Fathers teach you you're on your own

Mothers teach you to take what you will

 

Bang, you're alive!

Bang, you're alive!

Bang, you're alive!

Bang, you're alive!
