"Elderly Woman Behind The Counter In A Small
Town"


i seem to recognize your face
haunting, familiar, yet i can't seem to place it
cannot find the candle of thought to light your name
lifetimes are catching up with me
all these changes taking place, i wish i'd seen the place
but no one's ever taken me
hearts and thoughts they fade, fade away...
hearts and thoughts they fade, fade away...
i swear i recognize your breath
memories like fingerprints are slowly raising
me, you wouldn't recall, for i'm not my former
it's hard when, you're stuck upon the shelf
i changed by not changing at all, small town predicts my
fate
perhaps that's what no one wants to see
i just want to scream...hello...
my god its been so long, never dreamed you'd return
but now here you are, and here i am
hearts and thoughts they fade...away...
hearts and thoughts they fade...away...
hearts and thoughts they fade, fade away...
hearts and thoughts they fade...

"misery's the river of the world"

The higher that the monkey can climb
The more he shows his tail
Call no man happy 'til he dies
There's no milk at the bottom of the pail

God builds a church
The devil builds a chapel
Like the thistles that are growing
'Round the trunk of a tree
All the good in the world
You can put inside a thimble
And still have room for you and me

If there's one thing you can say about Mankind
There's nothing kind about man
You can drive out nature with a pitch fork
But it always comes roaring back again

Misery's the river of the world
Misery's the river of the world
Misery's the river of the world

The higher that the monkey can climb
The more he shows his tail
Call no man happy till he dies
There's no milk at the bottom of the pail

God tempers all the winds for the new shorn lambs
The devil knows the bible like the back of his hand
All the good in the world
You can put inside a thimble
And still have room for you and me

If there's one thing you can say about Mankind
There's nothing kind about man
You can drive out nature with a pitch fork
But it always comes roaring back again

For want of a bird
The sky was lost
For want of a nail
A shoe was lost
For want of a life
A knife was lost
For want of a toy
A child was lost

And misery's the river of the world
Misery's the river of the world
Everybody row, everybody row
Misery's the river of the world
Misery's the river of the world
Misery's the river of the world
Everybody row, everybody row
Everybody row, everybody row
Misery's the river of the world
Misery's the river of the world
Everybody row, everybody row
Everybody row, everybody row
Everybody row
Misery's the river of the world
Misery's the river of the world
Misery's the river of the world
Misery's the river of the world
Everybody row, everybody row
Everybody row

What is the cultural meaning of coming in a girl's mouth?
Do I wish to feed her or fill her mouth with filth?
Is it just to test whether she accepts my messiest mess
Or simply paint a funny milk moustache across her face?

Or is there in this thrilling ritual something messianic
Some sort of baptism by sperm?
Like my cock is John the Baptist saying
"One day someone greater than me shall come"
Or some Moses who leads an entire nation across her tongue
To liberation

That must be it ..... why else fill a girl's mouth saltily
full
With a fluid the consistency of honey, tapioca and motor
oil?

RZA - Build Strong Lyrics

yo yo confused but yet wise my problem surrounds me
A lot of things upset me as my soul rejects me
enemy of my self physical.....listen, let me tell you
about..

yo yo confused but yet wise my problem surrounds me
A lot of things upset me as my soul rejects me
enemy of self physically enslaved
by the luxuries of this world so I behave
like a man inside the grave
who's life is lost
I want the promised gold but can't afford the cost
or could I, I know the prescribed laws
any effect is a result of the cause
of lies and delusions to myself I have lied
burning inside wanting to open wide
and scream
the name of the supreme
but I'm trapped in this world
lusting for girls
therefore I imagine a genie and a wish
and searching for things that just does not exist
but in the midst there's the answer for which i have
searched
cause from me springs divine prince rakeem
and that is me the master of equality
with the ability
to set myself free
but b.o.b.b.y
he don't want to die,
he don't want to die he don't want to try
so I'm forced to cry
and get trapped up for living my life inside a lie
these problems surround me
a lot of things upset me
as my soul rejects me
enemy of my self physically enslaved

by the luxuries of this world so I behave
like a man inside the grave
who's life is lost
I want the promised gold but I can't afford the cost
or could I, I heard of the prescribed laws
any effect is a result of the cause
of lies and delusions to myself I have lied
burning inside and wanting to open wide
and scream
the name of the supreme
but I'm trapped in this world
I'm lusting for girls
before I imagined a genie and a wish
and I'm searching for things that does not exist
but in my midst there's the answer
for which i have searched
cause from me springs the divine prince rakheem
and that is me the master of equality
give myself the opportunity
and set free and be all I can be
be all I can be
and not a nigga just trapped up in luxur

this song is basically the story of me and my man

lying [martina topley-bird]

I walked out of the house in your
girlfriend's clothes
They fit me better than I would
have supposed
My mind close the curtain
on a lonely repose
And when I walk around town
everybody knows

I'm lying with you
Backsliding with you
Not trying with you
I'm lying with you

Out of the house with hangover shame
Don't punish me for not calling you
Come by the house, I'll be there at eight,
Waiting on the stoop for you

I'm lying with you
Backsliding with you
I'm not trying with you
I'm lying with you

Where are you Ilya?
Where are you Ilya?

Telephone's ringing and I'm at work
Look around to see if anybody heard
When I'm undercover I know it's absurd
But I want it and I can't say no
But I want it and I can't say no

I'm lying with you
Backsliding with you
Not trying with you
I'm lying with you

Where are you?
Where are you?

Sir Mix-A-Lot
Baby Got Back


Oh my god, Becky, look at her butt
It is so big
She looks like one of those rap guys girlfriends
Who understands those rap guys
They only talk to her because she looks like a total
prostitute, ok?
I mean her butt
It's just so big
I can't believe it's so round
It's just out there
I mean, it's gross
Look, she's just so black

I like big butts and I can not lie
You other brothers can't deny
That when a girl walks in with an itty bitty waste
And a round thing in your face
You get sprung
Wanna pull up front
Cuz you notice that butt was stuffed
Deep in the jeans she's wearing
I'm hooked and I can't stop staring
Oh, baby I wanna get with ya
And take your picture
My homeboys tried to warn me
But with that butt you got
Me so horny
Ooh, rub all of that smooth skin
You say you wanna get in my Benz
Well use me, use me cuz you ain't that average groupy

I've seen them dancin'
The hell with romancin'
She sweat, wet, got it goin' like a turbo 'Vette

I'm tired of magazines
saying flat butt's the only thing
Take the average black man and ask him that
She gotta pack much back, so

Fellas (yeah), fellas (yeah)
Has your girlfriend got the butt (hell yeah)
Well shake it, shake it, shake it, shake it, shake that
healthy butt
Baby got back

(LA face with Oakland booty)

I like'em round and big
And when I'm throwin' a gig
I just can't help myself
I'm actin like an animal
Now here's my scandal

I wanna get you home
And ugh, double ugh, ugh
I ain't talkin' bout Playboy
Cuz silicone parts were made for toys
I wannem real thick and juicy
So find that juicy double
Mixalot's in trouble
Beggin' for a piece of that bubble
So I'm lookin' at rock videos
Watchin' these bimbos walkin' like hoes
You can have them bimbos
I'll keep my women like Flo Jo
A word to the thick soul sistas
I wanna get with ya
I won't cus or hit ya
But I gotta be straight when I say I wanna fuck
Til the break of dawn
Baby, I got it goin on
A lot of pimps won't like this song
Cuz them punks like to hit it and quit it
But I'd rather stay and play
Cuz I'm long and I'm strong
And I'm down to get the friction on

So ladies (yeah), ladies (yeah)
If you wanna role in my Mercedes (yeah)
Then turn around
Stick it out
Even white boys got to shout
Baby got back

(LA face with the Oakland booty)

Yeah baby
When it comes to females
Cosmo and got nothin to do with my selection
36-24-36
Only if she's 5'3"

So your girlfriend rolls a Honda
Playin' workout tapes by Fonda
But Fonda ain't got a motor in the back of her Honda
My anaconda don't want none unless you've got buns hon
You can do side bends or sit-ups, but please don't lose that
butt
Some brothers wanna play that hard role
and tell you that the butt need to go
So they toss it and leave it
And I pull up quick to retrieve it
So Cosmo says you're fat
Well I ain't down with that
Cuz your waste is small and your curves are kickin'
And I'm thinkin' bout stickin'
To the beanpole dames in the magazines
You ain't it Miss Thang
Give me a sista I can't resist her
Red beans and rice didn't miss her
Some knucklehead tried to dis
Cuz his girls were on my list
He had game but he chose to hit 'em
And pulled up quick to get with 'em
So ladies if the butt is round
And you wanna triple X throw down
Dial 1-900-mixalot and kick them nasty thoughts
Baby got back

"Close the windows’ draw the blinds
I can’t stand it if the sun shines
On Sunday
Hated Sunday

Disturbing pictures on the news
Distant wars but they won’t touch you
On Sunday
Hated Sunday

Your mother calls’ she’s alright
Your sister calls’ she’s in hospital

Honouring politician dead
Car found parked on Beachy Head
On Sunday
Hated Sunday

Oh to be in England on a Sunday
Dear old dismal England an a Sunday’ay

Hated Sunday

Sunday night’ time stands still
One last drag’ it still feels like school
Tomorrow
Hated Sunday

Your mother calls’ she’s alright
Your brother calls’ he wants money

Oh to be in England on a Sunday
Dear old dismal England an a Sunday
Oh to be in England on a Sunday
Dear old dismal England an a Sunday"

before you test me know whats going on
ive been around for long my evil is strong
i lie awake and hate you
probably strong enough to make you
have something happen
a car crash, make you play with a weapon
a gun in your mouth my voice in your mind
you're strong enough to take a life
are you strong enough to take care of one?
Sleep and I'll find you
if i Just put my mind to

My funny valentine, I don't find you funny
Seaside the sun, and the fame, the money
Who am I to say
So you don't even wanna be
a... No, I can't say it, my mouth is like a...
Bitter sweet and twisted
deceitful rough and gifted
Even got God scared, even got scared
many the things we did
etc.....

sprung to mind. ha ha good old tricky, havent listened to

I've written this on before but:

I returned a bag of groceries
accidentally taken off the shelf
before the expiration date
I came back as a bag of groceries
accidentally taken off the shelf
before the date stamped on myself
did a large procession wave their torches
as my head fell in the basket
and was everybody dancing on the casket?
now it's over i'm dead and i haven't
done anything that i want
or i'm still alive and there's
nothing that i want to do
i will never say the word "procrastinate" again
i'll never see myself in the mirror
with my eyes closed
i didn't apologize for when i was eight
and i made my younger brother
have to be my personal slave
did a large procession wave their torches
as my head fell in the basket
and was everybody dancing on the casket?
now it's over i'm dead and i haven't
done anything that i want
or i'm still alive and there's
nothing that i want to do
and i won't sit at home anymore
and you won't see my head in the window
and i won't be around ever anymore
and i'll be up there on the wall at the store
They Might Be Giants - Dead

The higher that the monkey can climb
the more he shows his tail
call no man happy till he dies

"Two-Headed Boy Pt. Two" by Neutral Milk Hotel

Daddy, please hear this song that I sing,
In your heart there's a spark that just screams
for a lover to bring
a child to your chest,
That couyld lay as you sleep,
And love all you have left
Like your boy used to be, long ago,
Wrapped in sheets warm and wet.

Blister, please, with those wings in your spine,
Love to be with a brother of mine,
How you love to find your tongue in his teeth,
in a struggle to find sacred songs that you keep
Wrapped in boxes so tight,
Sounding only at night as you sleep.

And in my dreams you're alive and you're crying,
as your mouth moves in mine, soft and sweet,
Rings of flowers round your eyes and
I’ll love you for the rest of your life (when you’re
ready)

Brother see we are one and the same,
And you left with your head filled with flames and you
watched as your brains
fell out through your teeth, push the pieces in place
Make your smile
Sweet to see,
Don’t you take this away
I’m still wanting my face on your cheek.

And when we break
We’ll wait for our miracle,
God is a place where some holy spectacle lies.
And when we break
We’ll wait for our miracle,
God is a place you will wait for the rest of your life.

Two-headed boy,
She is all you could need,
She will feed you tomatoes
and radio wire,
And retire to sheets safe and clean,
But don’t hate her when she gets up to leave.

Hm, a random Jim O'Rourke song..

Nothing makes me want to disappear
As when someone opens their mouth

It’s just my luck
I get hit by a car
While carrying a cake

Dripping cherries
Onto pavement
Bride and groom on my face

I’m not there like a ghost ship in a storm

It only figures
That I’d ride my bike
Into wet cement

And as I’m sinkin’
The last thing that I think
Is did I pay my rent

I ride through like a ghost ship in a storm

The Soft Boys
Underwater Moonlight
(Hitchcock)
He was white and she was white as only statues are
Fifty years they stood there looking stupid by a jar
One night in mid-august when the moonlight got too strong
They climbed off their pedastal and then they sang this
song
Past the gun implacement and the bones as white as bleach
Through the rats and ivy till they came out on a beach
Out into the ocean till they disappeared from view
Honey, when it gets you there's just nothing you can do
Underwater moonlight sets the body free
Underwater moonlight baby you and me
Underwater moonlight
Underwater moonlight
He was pink and she was pink and onward they did row
Didn't see the giant squid though, it was fairly slow
When they hit the bottom they were well and truly dead
The statues took their place and then they rowed back home
instead
Underwater moonlight, take your baby down
Underwater moonlight, watch you baby drown with love
And in the moonlight - Underwater moonlight
Underwater moonlight
Underwater moonlight
(there are a few quiet lines here I cannot make out)
Once again
I can take you down - Moonlight
Below the sea - Moonlight
Why don't you feed the fish? - Moonlight
I'll make you feed the fish - Moonlight
I'll watch you feed the fish - Moonlight
I'll watch you feed the fish - Moonlight
Underwater moonlight sets the body free
Underwater moonlight baby, you and me
Underwater moonlight
Underwater moonlight
Underwater moonlight
Underwater moonlight

"Wish You Away" by Esthero

Another sock in the belly day
Why don't you go away
Inside your storm
It kinda keeps me warm
At night
Well I
Know it to be true
Swirling through
Inside you
Your light is my light
Your light

After you left I couldn't sleep
I have nowhere to be
And if you go
Then I go too
And if you leave
Then I will find you
I will find you
I was kicked in the belly today
And it wasn't fair play
I would scream but I've too much to say
Life isn't fair play

Wish you away
Just go away
Wish you away
Can't go away
Wish you away
Don't go away
You were never here anyway...

Just wind in sails

We’re pinheads now
We are not whole
We’re pinheads all

In business suit
Teachers and critics
All dance the poot
Are we not men?
We are devo!

D-e-v-o
God made man
But he used the monkey to do it
Apes in the plan
We’re all here to prove it
I can walk like an ape
Talk like an ape
I can do what a monkey can do
God made man
But a monkey supplied the glue
We must repeat
O.k. let’s go!

gett off - prince
How can I put this in a way so as not 2 offend or unnerve?
But there's a rumor goin' all around that U ain't been
gettin' served
They say that U ain't "U know what" in, baby, who knows how
long
It's hard 4 me 2 say what's right when all I wanna do is
wrong

CHORUS:
Gett off – 23 positions in a one night stand
Gett off – I'll only call U after if U say I can
Gett off – Let a woman be a woman and a man be a man
Gett off – If U want 2, baby, here I am (Here I am)

I clocked the jizz from a friend of yours named Vanessa Bet
(Bet)
She said U told her a fantasy that got her all wet (Wet)
Something about a little box with a mirror and a tongue
inside (Yeah)
What she told me then got me so hot, I knew that we could
slide (Ooh)

CHORUS

Gett off {repeat in BG}

1 2 3
Naw, little cutie, I ain't drinkin'
But scope this, I was just thinkin'
U + me, what a ride
If U was thinkin' the same, we could continue outside
Lay your pretty body against a parkin' meter
Strip your dress down like I was strippin' a Peter Paul's
Almond Joy
Lemme show U, baby, I'm a talented boy

Everybody grab a body
Pump it like U want somebody
Gett off

So here we, so here we…
So here we are, here we are in my paisley crib
What cha want 2 eat? (Ribs!)
Naw toy, I don't serve ribs
U better be happy that dress is still on
I heard the rip when U sat down
Honey, them hips is gone
But that's alright, I clock 'em that way
Remind me of somethin' James used 2 say
"I like 'em fat, I like 'em proud
U got 2 have a mother 4 me"
Now move your big ass 'round this way
So I can work on that zipper, baby
2night U're a star and I'm the Big Dipper
Na, na, na, na {x2}

(Kick it)
(Gett off) {repeat in BG}

How can I put this in a way so as not 2 offend or unnerve?
But there's a rumor goin' all around that U ain't been
gettin' served
They say that U ain't "U know what" in, baby, who knows how

Jeff Buckley / Dream Brother

There is a child sleeping near his twin
The pictures go wild in a rush of wind
That dark angel he is shuffling in
Watching over them with his black feather wings unfurled

The love you lost with her skin so fair
Is free with the wind in her butterscotch hair
Her green eyes blew goodbyes
With her head in her hands
and your kiss on the lips of another
Dream Brother with your tears scattered round the world.

Don't be like the one who made me so old
Don't be like the one who left behind his name
'Cause they're waiting for you like I waited for mine
And nobody ever came...

Don't be like the one who made me so old
Don't be like the one who left behind his name
'Cause they're waiting for you like I waited for mine
And nobody ever came...

Don't be like the one who made me so old
Don't be like the one who left behind his name
'Cause they're waiting for you like I waited for mine
Nobody ever came
Nobody ever...

I feel afraid and I call your name
I love your voice and your dance insane
I hear your words and I know your pain
With your head in your hands and her kiss on the lips of
another
Your eyes to the ground and the world spinning round
forever
Asleep in the sand with the ocean washing over
Asleep in the sand with the ocean washing over
Asleep in the sand with the ocean washing over

Ah do you meet the one I love
and smell the one who loves you
Dream brother, dream brother, dream, dream
dream asleep in the sand with the ocean washing over

Artist: Illogic
Album: Unforeseen Shadows
Song: Hate in a Puddle

[Illogic]
I hate when it rains, cause in puddles I encounter this guy
Unable to give a rebuttal but swift as the pain flood his
eyes
wonderin why he's a gift with no purpose
A priceless one-of-a-kind piece that's worthless
Grounded with no surface
And when he shows one, it's a facade
Cause inside he fights feelings that he was mistake by God
I see his confusion and self-deception
Questions of relevance and intelligence
He holds an illusion of self-acceptance
that he shows to those outside lookin in
He's outside lookin in to his own life; lookin for strength
to carry on as a pawn in this chess game of existance
In his mind he wants to go on to the dawn
and leave the stress that came with existance
Hopin in death he'll find life
Cause as he lives, he roams the dark, tryin to find light
He's made his heart so hard, he doesn't even cry anymore
Cause he's confronted sorrow frequently
His heart's been broken frequently
It's like he's lost some part of him and just haven't found
it yet
So in his search, he's left with nothin but questions and
regret
All he wants to know is how one day, he's content
and the next day he's cryin
cause his life isn't what he thought life meant
He just wants to be happy, with his love and all
But too often I get messages through telepathic calls
He's askin me through a puddle what more must he endure to
continue
But for some reason he knows he most endure to continue

[Chorus]
When I walk past puddles, my reflection calls beggin me
to answer his questions about life and his perceptions
and tell him why I hate him so much
And you wonder why I hate him so much?
Now when I walk past puddles, my reflection calls beggin me
to answer his questions about life, and his perceptions
and tell him why I hate him so much
Damn, I wonder why I hate him so much

Why did I hate him so much? I wondered, pondered on the
question
What in my mind caused me to despise my reflection?
I didn't know I just knew when I saw him, how I felt
and hated the fact that he had to play with the cards that
he was dealt
He's come in contact with some ill things that can't be
explained
Life's extracted his energy to where the pain can't be
contained
So to me he comes, sheddin tears like skin
Intimate with some, only the ones he calls friends
If he even exists, he only exists in pain
It's like his life is a myth
and he's been blessed with the gift of shame, I mean
From birth to love he's been betrayed
He's an unknown in how to cope with that pain and
dissapointment
he's come to know as he's grown
He feels he stands alone in this world of puddle images
And he awaits the time for when, time finishes
He tries to elevate thought, but he's still chillin in the
basement
Awaitin a rebirth of his soul as it fears it's spiritual
placement

[Chorus]

[Illogic]
God I pray you can give me a purpose or help me find it
Cause on this narrow path of self-damnation, I can't find
it
Is it somethin I need to know, some way I need to grow
to get out of this rut, God give me some self-trust
Love is somethin I'm lookin for but I've found it, or have
I?
I wanna live but can I, or do I have to die to?
I try to, have life but my life seems kinda worthless
as I'm starin at this puddle
God I pray that you can give me a purpose or help me find
it
Cause on this narrow path of self-damnation, I can't find
it
Is it somethin I need to know, some way I need to grow
to get out of this rut, God please give me some self-trust
Love is somethin I'm lookin for - thought I found it, or
have I?
I wanna live but can I, or do I have to die to?
I try to, have life but my life seems kinda worthless
as I'm starin in this puddle

[Chorus]

{*music changes*}

[Illogic]
I sit alone in dismal silence
Peering into the eyes of my reflection
Wondering if his thoughts are adjacent

to my own
What visions of eerie savagery
are passing if purity lurks in the mind of he who I mirror?
Lookin at him I am disgusted
He lacks beauty in all external areas
and internally he seems so confused
Perplexed with this conundrum of life
He proceeds to function or cope, lookin at it realistically
Esteem he lacks, in all areas of existance
Reason unknown
What is the cause of the lack of this self-acceptance?
I mean it seems like he needs constant assurance
Some type of ritual proof that he's even worth the oxygen he
breathes
A, light that shines upon him
Is his living in vein? Does he have a purpose?
Answer - eternally unknown

Intake ambiance a tool for meditation
Progressing towards the clouds with at whom I am complete
Defeat the chains that restrain an eager sensation
Equal balance in and out, all inhibitions shall deplete
(X2)

I'm trying to break this writer's cramp, massage my hand and
daydream
Out the window innuendo, watch the water find it's path down
the glass
It seems, erratic direction, it's only perfection
Rest my head inside my hands, pace back and forth inside my
mind
I wish sometimes I wouldn't reminisce so much
such things, tend to make one reflect and dissect situations
to an extreme
Hard now to redeem what was there before
No more gone are those days and ways have parted
Gone from feeling solid trust to outsmarted
Anyway, I'm now moving on to a distance far from yesterday
It's best this way
I feel as though I've missed this moment of truth
Outcome uneventfull. I've lost the ability to feel
sentimental
I can stare at a puddle and see a million places I love
It's comforting thoughts of places I've been, places I will
never see again
Send my love to all who were there, wishing I could crawl
back in
But I've transformed and the pieces wouldn't fit, so the
sorenecks will cease
Eyes searching to the sky to try to find some form of peace
And I keep pulling up blanks, yet I'm wearing this mask for
the sake of others
We all miss things I suppose, we must let go, well I'm not
ready
Just let me sit in silence and soak in what's trailing down
the window
to cleanse my emotions, to begin the process of preparing
myself

Intake ambiance a tool for meditation
Progressing towards the clouds with at whom I am complete
Defeat the chains that restrain an eager sensation
Equal balance in and out, all inhibitions shall deplete
(X2)

I watch the drop join it's friends and become one with the
crowd
All to well, forcing me to sigh out loud
Look into clouds, to envision, the inside of my head
I'm turing leave at this turning point. Remembering what
they said
as they drove off one by on

one
they left taking pieces of me untill I felt empty inside
already looking forward to that day when I'd be returning
and I hadn'r even left yet
From then on I took the inside out approach
Granted lots of time to think when when your new position is
coach
And your crew is sleeping the whole time, when it's 2:00 am
in the morning
And you're in the middle of nowhere with the buzz of the AM
radio
the only one that's there
Think a lot about life, that's where it all began for me
the more I thought, the more more I began to clearly see
absolutely every aspect of life in a new light
I figured out my Rubix Cube.. (haha) well I got it somewhat
right
And things are coming together as I slowly come undone
And the occurence known as the "it" is swept under the rug
and now my burden weights a ton
But it only makes me stronger and I refuse to break
I'm letting things pass by, for the family's sake
Just give me a picture of the truth so I can hold it near
and watch the rainfall, syncopated with one lonesome tear

Intake ambiance a tool for meditation
Progressing towards the clouds with at whom I am complete
Defeat the chains that restrain an eager sensation
Equal balance in and out, all inhibitions shall deplete
(X2)

GlassJaw "Pretty Lush"

I draw them on reckless, etched in, scratched in like
resurrection.
Your sins are killing you and you can bet they'll get me
too.
I've got to give some to get some.
Mining in the river, standing in the rain.
Down on your knees as you heave at the drain.
You can lead a whore to water and you can bet she'll drink
and follow orders.
And I said, Is this what you wanted?
Is this what you needed?
Give it some more time.
Tonight I'm going to a party, but its already started
without me.
I aced philosophy and mastered the art of spiritual phrase.
I've got to give some to get some.
The disco ball spins away another year.
I wish you a broken heart and a happy new year.
Only three words come to mind (True Till' Death)

Virginpusher, I love the way Daryl Palumbo sings, one of the
most passionate voices I've ever heard. I used to listen to
Everything You Ever Wanted To Know About Silence all the
time.

Did you know?

He is the best vocalist today. IMO! Damn you can hear
hundreds of emotions in his voice.

I have head automatica downloaded but its too different for
me. EYEWTKAS is fucking awesome. So beautiful and so fucking
ugly at the same time. It is exactly like life can be!

GlassJaw "Pink Roses

You're asking when do I stop?
When the bottle's empty.
Blacker than my father's soul,
drunk enough to raise us all.

Pink roses.

Nomad:
Drowning rat.
Black.
Black.
So black you can't even grasp the fact.
Blacker than a beggar's soul,
rich enough to save us all.

Pink roses.

Lead with your need as god descends.
Cold in the ground.
What gets me this down?
The smell of magnesium,
the smile of a clown.

I want to drink you, scare you, fuck you and film you.

There are two which i find appropriate right now:

If i spoke at one constant rhythm, at one constant pitch, at
one constant volume, right into your ear.

You still won't hear, you still won't hear...

A small victory - Faith no more

And...

You sung all the words and you sung all the note but you
never quite learned the songs you sung.

I can tell by the sadness in your eye that you never quite
learned the songs you sung.

The hedgehog song - The incredible string band
