Wake.. from your sleep
The drying of your tears
Today we escape, we escape

Pack.. and get dressed
Before your father hears us
Before all hell breaks loose

Breathe, keep breathing
Don't lose your nerve
Breathe, keep breathing
I can't do this alone

Sing.. us a song
A song to keep us warm
There's such a chill, such a chill

You can laugh
A spineless laugh
We hope your rules and wisdom choke you
Now we are one in everlasting peace

We hope that you choke, that you choke
We hope that you choke, that you choke
We hope that you choke, that you choke

It's tearin' up my heart when I'm with you
But when we are apart, I feel it too
And no matter what I do, I feel the pain
With or without you

(hey... yeah)
Baby I don't understand
Just why we can't be lovers
Things are getting out of hand
Trying too much, but baby we can't win

Let it go
If you want me girl, let me know
I am down, on my knees
I can't take it anymore

It's tearin' up my heart when I'm with you
But when we are apart, I feel it too
And no matter what I do, I feel the pain
With or without you

(oohhh... alright)
Baby don't mis - understand (don't misunderstand)
What I'm trying to tell ya
In the corner of my mind (corner of my mind)
Baby, it feels like we are running out of time

Let it go
If you want me girl, let me know
I am down on my knees
I can't take it anymore... ohhh

It's tearin' up my heart when I'm with you
But when we are apart, I feel it too
And no matter what I do, I feel the pain
With or without you

Tearin' up my heart and soul
We're apart I feel it too
And no matter what I do, I feel the pain
With or without you

Tearin' up my heart and soul (alright)
We're apart I feel it too (I feel it too)
And no matter what I do, I feel the pain
With or without you

It's tearin' up my heart (tearin' up my heart and soul) when
I'm with you
But when we are apart, I feel it too (we're apart I feel it
too)
And no matter what I do, I feel the pain
With or without you

And no matter what I do, I feel the pain
With or without you

XTC- This World Over

Ah well, that's this world over
Ah well, next one begins
Will you smile like any mother
As you bathe your brand new twins?
Will you sing about the missiles
As you dry odd numbered limbs?
Ah well, that's this world over
Ah well, next one begins
Ah well, that's this world over
You sadly grin
Will you tell them about that far off and mythical land
About their leader with the famous face?
Will you tell them that the reason nothing ever grows
In the garden anymore
Because he wanted to win the craziest race
That's this world over
Will you smile like any father
With your children on a Sunday hike?
When you get to a sea of rubble
And they ask ``What was London like?''
You tell them, ``Ah well, that's the world over''
Will you tell them about that far off and mythical land
And how a child to the virgin came?
Will you tell them that the reason why we murdered
Everything upon the surface of the world
So we can stand right up and say we did it in his name?
That's this world over
Or so it seems
That's this world over
The end of dreams
That's this world over, over, over and out.

Is it an horrific dream
Am I sinking fast
Could a person be so mean
As to laugh and laugh
On my own
Could you ease my load
Could you see my pain
Could you please explain

Could you understand a child
When he cries in pain
Could you give him all he needs
Or do you feel the same
All along
You’ve been told you’re wrong
When you felt it right
And you’re left to fight

Time wears away
All the pleasures of the day
All the treasures you could hold
Days turn to sand
Losing strength in every hand
They can't hold you anymore

Already dead to me now
'Coz it feels like I'm watching something die

Love looks away
In the harsh light of the day
On the edge of nothing more
Days fade to black
In the light of what they lack
Nothing's measured by what it needs

Already dead to me now
'Coz it feels like I'm watching something dyin?

forever your eyes will hold the memory
i saw your heart as it overtook me
we tried so hard to understand and reason
but in that one moment i gave my heart away
that perfect breath where my mind lay beside me
and all i knew was what had overtaken me
with no explanation i am comforted by inability to
understand
when i wake from this dream will you still be here
will your smile still open my heart and leave me transparent

When I woke up today
and you weren't there to play
then I wanted to be with you
when you showed me your eyes
whispered love at the skies
then I wanted to stay with you
inside me I feel alone and unreal
and the way you kiss will always be
a very special thing to me...

When I lay still at night seeing
stars high and light
then I wanted to be with you
when the rooftops shone dark
all alone (I) saw a spark
spark of love just to stay with you
inside me I feel alone and unreal
and the way you kiss will always be
a very special thing to me...

If I mention your name
turn around on a chain
then the sky opens for you
when we grew very tall
when I saw you so small
then I wanted to stay with you
inside me I feel alone and unreal
and the way you kiss will always be
a very special thing to me...

American Nightmare - "Shoplifting in a Ghost Town"

i've never seen so many stars (and i'm never gonna see them
again) i've never known such perfection (and i'm never gonna
know it again) i've never felt so at home (and i'm never
gonna feel it again) i want to open these veins and never
breathe again because the beauty is dead... since february
'79 i've o.d.'ed on “lonesome“ 22 times (but who's
counting?) you'd think by now - you would've died i'm sorry
girls - i tried (scream these words to me) if imperfections
are illegal then you should call the cops and the should
lock me up you're such a slave to the crying game (scream
these words to me) we'll die alone picture me in brighter
days with smiles on my innocent face (did you forget me?) i
only wanted to be loved i on wanted to be in love (scream
these words to me) if imperfections are illegal then you
should call the cops and the should lock me up you're such a
slave to the crying game (scream these words to me) we'll
die alone could you love a face full of tears soaked in
song? i can't decide... i don't know if its worse to live or
die i am stuck on “never enough“ and the corner of
“never again“ here is a hint - don't call someone who
just sits by the phone leave them alone i loved the first
few days but its not fun playing a game you always lose i
couldn't talk to save my life i couldn't talk to save my
life

Brand New - "The Boy Who Blocked His Own Shot"

If it makes you less sad, I will die by your hand. I hope
you find out what you want. I already know what I am. And if
it makes you less sad, we'll start talking again. And you
can tell me how vile I already know that I am. I'll grow old
and start acting my age. I'll be a brand new day in a life
that you hate. A crown of gold. A heart that's harder than
stone. And it hurts a whole lot, but it's missed when it's
gone. Call me a safe bet. I'm betting I'm not. I'm glad that
you can forgive. I'm only hoping as time goes, you can
forget. If it makes you less sad, I'll move out of the
state. You can keep to yourself. I'll keep out of your way.
And if it makes you less sad, I'll take your pictures all
down. Every picture you paint, I will paint myself out. It's
cold as a tomb, and it's dark in your room, when I sneak to
your bed to pour salt in your wounds. So call it quits or
get a grip. Say you wanted a solution. You just wanted to be
missed. Call me a safe bet. I'm betting I'm not. I'm glad
that you can forgive.
I'm only hoping as time goes, you can forget... You are calm
and reposed. Let your beauty unfold. Pale white, like the
skin stretched over your bones. Spring keeps you ever close.
You are second hand smoke. You are so fragile and thin.
Standing trial for your sins. Holding onto yourself the best
you can. You are the smell before rain. You are the blood in
my veins. Call me a safe bet. I'm betting I'm not. I'm glad
that you can forgive. I'm only hoping as time goes, you can
forget.

i still recall the taste of your tears
echoing your voice just like the ringing in my ears
my favorite dreams of you still wash ashore
scraping through my head til i don't wanna sleep anymore

you always were the one to show me how
back then i couldn't do the things that i can do now
this thing is slowly taking me apart
grey would be the color if i had a heart

in this place it seems like such a shame
though it all it looks different now i know it's still the
   same
everhywere i look you're all i see
just a fading fucking reminder of who i used to be

you make this all go away, you make this all go away
i'm down to just one thing and i'm starting to scare myself
you make this all go away, you make this all go away
i just want something i can never have

My Dying Bride - "Two Winters Only"

What is it you hope for, even though you are dying?
And even though life is closing your tiny eyes
Why did I leave them all?
I should be with them to die in the same place
The pain I think, should go on forever. For always
But no. Not mine. Not now. My life now begins

Call me what you will, but I'll die for no man, at all
My limbs and the life that spreads from them
Cross my path and you'll suffer like no man before, at all
What I hunger for, is the trial of God

For just two winters only did we live for
My God. What have you become? Dear, dear lord

We could have changed the world, had you been here with me.
Right now
Held you in my arms. In my arms, my love
Jesus wept so man could live forever on earth. In peace
But my tears. They fall for you. Only you

the song was dedicated to the vocalist's dog that died...

je droomt wel vaker van een feest
maar hier ben je nog nooit geweest
iedereen kijkt naar voetbal
en een vent zeurt aan je kop
wat wil die man in hemelsnaam
hoe kom je hier
hoe kom je hier vandaan
en als je wegkomt
waarheen wou je dan wel gaan
hij praat maar door maar jij dwaalt af
dus je weet niet wie de wedstrijd wint
als je luistert naar de wolken
als je luistert naar de wind
je agenda en je zonnebril
wat doen die hier nou
maar je ligt weer in je eigen bed
in je eigen lot
en opeens staat alles stil
tis altijd wat en altijd spijt
van al het geld en alle tijd
op de onverharde wegen
die je naar hier hebben geleid
de ochtenden zijn wit en koud
en hoe je ook je stuur vasthoudt
de wind komt door je handschoenen heen
je vingers zijn versteend
zo is er altijd iets wat je verlamd
en is het niet de wiet
dan is het wel de drank of zo
het spookt maar in je hoofd
het was lang geleden een eeuwigheid
je fietste op de afsluitdijk
ik weet niet wat je er nu van vind
als je luistert naar de wolken
als je luistert naar de wind

Cheeky holiday (hi de hi de ho)
Come and dance with us (hi de hi de ho)
The sea and sun is hot and fun
(Hi de hi de ho)
And the lazy days to sing and laugh
(Hi de hi de ho)
To stretch and feel the sand and sea
(Hi de hi de ho)
And the rhythm of the waves is what we hear
(Hi de hi de ho)

CHORUS
Hooray, hooray, its a holi-holiday
All the girls and boys are out to play
Holi-holiday
Hooray, hooray, its a Cheeky holiday
When the sun goes down
It's party time, holi-holiday,
It's a Cheeky holiday!!!

Every day and night all year round
(Hi de hi de ho)
It's a heeky world, a funny world
(Hi de hi de ho)
No need to find another place (hi de hi de ho)
'Cause it's summertime and we feel great
(Hi de hi de ho)

REPEAT CHORUS

Shake your bums left and right
Come on, come on lets dance
Shake you bums left and right
Ooh ah ha dance all night, girls and boys
Don't be shy its a cheeky party time
Happy times dancing all night long
Shake your bums to left and right
The holiday is gone
One, Two, Three, Four

One, Two, Three, Four

I have AIDS and my wife left me/
Cleft in my neck as she lept at me/
I cry sad like a leppy/
My number one pride involved moneppy.

I smoked crack on a rock with a sad lady who had clamindia/
she said her name was Clams/
I said show the hands/
she said herpes burns/
I fought with a virus cause i was sad/
my baby went in the microwave like Charles Ng's/
I am a chubby chaser and i am sad...

The last time I saw her
Was the night she said goodbye
She said that love's a stranger
And it's sure to pass you by
As she packed up her belongings
She wouldn't look me in the eye
But I could see a tear roll
Off her face
As we both tried so hard
Not to cry she said

I never wanted the stars
I never shot for the moon
I like them right where they are
All I wanted was you
So baby just turn away
Because I can't face the truth
All I'm trying to say
Is all I wanted was you

I tried so hard to remember
Where when how why love went away
I tried to drown myself in pity
But the whiskey kept calling your name

I bought you fancy cars and diamond rings
All the things that money brings
And the servants to paint the sky blue
And I worked so hard seven days a week
And built a fortress for your heart to keep
If I could I'd wrap these words up for you

I never wanted the stars
I never shot for the moon
I like them right where they are
All I wanted was you
So baby just turn away
Because I can't face the truth
All I'm trying to say
Is all I wanted was you

I may have built for you a dreamhouse
But never thought you were alone
I filled the party up with company
But never made our house a home
All I got is my guitar these chords and the truth
All I got is my guitar ... but all I want is you

Take your own
Sick with fever
And cry out loud
to God
Your sorry own
Will be piled upon me
That I can't see
My God
I've cried for earth
More than once
But rivers still run
With reddest tears
Be lost in me
And I'll never need to ask
Who wants me? Who wants Me?
Be mine tonight. The sight of your light
I'll breathe in you. I'm a fool, just for you
I'm in pain
And I don't know why
Under heavy rain
From darkest skies
We're in pain
The two of us
And I no longer know
Which way to go
Open wide. Let me see
Your bleeding heart cries for me
Look straight up. Look at the sun
This song's for her. Her requiem
Open wide. Let me see
A poisoned soul in agony
Self pity strangles me
I'm lashed by grief
And I'm killing me
Don't fear. My fire is enough
For both of us

To take me out to dreamland
When I'm with her, I'm the richest
Man in the town
She's a rose, she's the pearl
She's the spin on my world

Samuel Beckett
Cascando

1

why not merely the despaired of
occasion of
wordshed

is it not better abort than be barren

the hours after you are gone are so leaden
they will always start dragging too soon
the grapples clawing blindly the bed of want
bringing up the bones the old loves
sockets filled once with eyes like yours
all always is it better too soon than never
the black want splashing their faces
saying again nine days never floated the loved
nor nine months
nor nine lives

2

saying again
if you do not teach me I shall not learn
saying again there is a last
even of last times
last times of begging
last times of loving
of knowing not knowing pretending
a last even of last times of saying
if you do not love me I shall not be loved
if I do not love you I shall not love

the churn of stale words in the heart again
love love love thud of the old plunger
pestling the unalterable
whey of words

terrified again
of not loving
of loving and not you
of being loved and not by you
of knowing not knowing pretending
pretending

I and all the others that will love you
if they love you

3

unless they love you

Like spinning plates

While you make pretty speeches,
I'm being cut to shreds.
You feed me to the lions,
a delicate balance

When this just feels like spinning plates.
I'm living in cloud cuckoo land.
And this just feels like spinning plates
Our bodies floating down the muddy river.

swans "animus"

Somewhere, through the frozen fields,
Somewhere, beneath your pale and tender skin,
Lies a house, absorbing fear and pain -
Solar, Red, Contained -
And feeding on my dreams.
Somewhere cold, inside the optic wire,
Down where fingers and semen crack and bleed -
There I will be, with my arms spread out and broken,
Waiting for your breath, to animate my veins.
We're not alone: All our thoughts are numbered -
Malignant and cold, animal and hungry.
But I will contain all that ever was or will be,
Then I'll watch my skin erupt, in a symphony of flames -
Screaming out your name, screaming out your name...
Why can't I hide inside your halleable, electric face?
You'd suck away the pain, and swallow down my sickest
dreams.
Now my body fgeels like snow, spilling out the shattered
screen -
Where will we be then, when all the fear and blood are
gone,
Drained into one hundred million open children's mouths -
Screaming out your name,
Screaming out your name...

Jesus, Mr Mexican, don't be so sensitive. Go steal American
jobs from hard working corporate Americans or something.

Killing Game

fallen angel head crashes dead out of control lost
memories staircase twists darker rooms lit with left out
toys after playing men changes toys into tools twisted
playthings on the staircase fools whose weapons
represents the killing game
who taught the killing game
who taught the killing game
awaken eyes sewn wearing glasses dripping tapping at the
temple door locked inside scream inner scraping tooth and
nail nowhere to go quiet retraces forcing
light tears then pretend nothing blinds minds closed in
sanctuary closed in sanctuary padded walls not quiet
storms fury burned out killing time
who taught the killing game
time's taught the killing game herself
no i taught the killing game first
passing words distant pain remember trains of thought
collide no one view window pushing faces through sharp
cold glass poke bloody holes exposed
i taught the killing game first
i taught the killing game first
till at last you regret tortured animals wake up time
beckons death upon myself eyes travelled harden strange
no stronger feeling tempting motion slows to a
crawl places his weaponry and it's a trap let go the
springs snap shut gazes show sharper teeth giving in to
the jaws of death
i taught the killing game
i taught the killing game first
i taught i taught i taught the game first...first...first...

there's no end, there's no glory, there's a slow resounding
story
there's no place to feel certain, there's no body waiting
for me
there's no stand of trees, no morning, there's a curve
without a warning
there is weird and lasting sadness, there's no large and
lengthy warming
there's no heat, there's no expansion, there's no door into
the mansion
lengthy warming, sweet removal, sweet expanse sweet and
substantial
there's no flesh, there's no fingers in my hair, i see a
tunnel
we built walls, tall and solid between the treasure and the
shovel
i see an in i see a fountain, there's a trail over the
mountain
there's no wayside, there's no stopping and the peak is wide
and rocky
there's no ceiling in the mansion, there's no wast no
hesitation
there's no crack of dawn no morning, just an everlasting
warming

i took my shirt off in the yard/no one saw that the skin on
my should was golden
now it's not, my shirts back on/i forgot my songs/the glow
is gone
my gliding body stopped
i could not get through september without a battle
i face death, i went in with my arms swinging
but i heard my own breath, and i had to face that i'm still
living
i'm still flesh, i hold onto awful feelings
i'm not dead, there's no end, my face is red
my blood flows harshly/my heart beats loudly
my chest still draws breath, i hold it, i'm buoyant
there's no end

that makes me want to cry

really innocent things like childhood things like that that
are so fragile and pure make me want to break down
blubbering.

~ more seriously... there are depressing lyrics, but i think
the most depressing music i know remains instrumental.
(F#A#infinity by Godspeed You Black Emperor!.... and the
lyrics aren't for it....)

Morton > i like the lyrics to "How To Disappear
Completely"... but i don't find them depressing nor even
really sad! ' _ '

There's the odour of incense
And I double in pain
And I flick through the past
As arrayed in my mind
On a bed in a room
That's locked on some hill
I'm gripping her hand
As she cries to the wall

The years stumble away
And the pain dissipates
Suzanne's clad in blues
With a mark in her hand
The lines round her lips
Are now scars in my mind
Down at the quayside
Through the sun's rising mists
Suzanne drags me down
"All this world's in your mind..."
Can salvation emerge
From the heart of this dream?
Where the horses run formless
The sky cancels its stars
Then the fumes of the incense
Rise across the walls
And she watches me sideways
Like the world is on fire
Between the beat of her heart
And her gesture of fingers
The twist of her hand
As it beckons through me
She smiles through my pain
And my loss yet to come
I wait on the platform
For our lives to restart
And I wanted to tell her
How all my hearts felt
But my words barb inside me
And my lips cannot part
From the twisting of smokes
As we sit in her room
To the sorrow I feel
As I fall out of dreams
Inexplicable sadness
This gash that I feel
Devoid of her moon
And ripped of my suns

(If I knew at that joining...)
(If I knew at that parting...)
(If I knew at that moment...)
(If I knew at that second...)

The candlewax melts
And the water stops shining
That which is started
Is so easily falling
From cathedrals of sand
That the ocean laps away
And sometimes I wake empty
And she floats through my symbols
And I move as to hold her
And...

Lament for my Suzanne
I wait for you still


- Current 93, 'A Lament For My Suzanne'

Questions In A World Of Blue

Why did you go?
Why did you turn
away from me?

When all the world
seemed to sing
Why, why did you go?

Was it me?
Was it you?
Questions in a world of blue

How can a heart
that's filled with love
Start to cry?

When all the world
seemed so right
How, how can love die?

Was it me?
Was it you?
Questions in a world of blue

When did the day
with all it's light
turn into night?

When all the world
seemed to sing
Why, why did you go?

Was it me?
Was it you?
Questions in a world of blue
Questions in a world of blue

Into The Night

Now it's dark

Into the night
I cry out
I cry out your name
Into the night
I search out
I search out your love.
Night so dark
Where are you?
Come back in my heart
So dark
So dark.

Into the night
Shadows fall
Shadows fall so blue.
I cry out
I cry out for you.

Night so dark
Where are you?
Come back in my heart
So dark
So dark
So dark
