Post a lyric that fits your mood 49.0 I once met a man with a sense of adventure He was dressed to thrill wherever he went He said let’s make love on a mountain top Under the stars on a big hard rock I said in these shoes? I don’t think so I said honey, let’s do it here. So I’m sitting at a bar in guadalajara In walks a guy with a faraway look in his eyes He said I’ve got as powerful horse outside Climb on the back, I’ll take you for a ride I know a little place, we can get there for the break of day. I said in these shoes? No way, jose I said honey, let’s stay right here. No le gusta caminar. no puede montar a caballo Como se puede bailar? es un escandolo Then I met an englishman Oh he said Won’t you walk up and down my spine, It makes me feel strangely alive. I said in these shoes? I doubt you’d survive. I said honey, let’s do it. Let’s stay right here. No le gusta caminar. no puede montar a caballo Como se puede bailar? es un escandolo In spite of the cost of living, it's still popular. |

I've posted this one by Björk before, but after having walked the streets of Stockholm it feels appropriate again:
I tried to organize freedom, how Scandinavian of me!  | |

Life springs eternal
On a gaudy neon street Not that I care at all I spent the best part of my losing streak In an Army Jeep For what I can't recall Oh I'm banging on my TV set And I check the odds And I place my bet I pour a drink And I pull the blind And I wonder what I'll find I'm Leaving Las Vegas Lights so bright Palm sweat, blackjack On a Saturday night Leaving Las Vegas Leaving for good, for good I'm leaving for good I'm leaving for good Used to be I could drive up to Barstow for the night Find some crossroad trucker To demonstrate his might But these days it seems Nowhere is far enough away So I'm leaving Las Vegas today Chorus I'm standing in the middle of the desert Waiting for my ship to come in But now no joker, no jack, no king Can take this loser hand And make it win I quit my job as a dancer At the Lido Des Girls Dealing blackjack until one or two Such a muddy line between The things you want And the things you have to do I'm leaving Las Vegas And I won't be back No I won't be back Not this time "We could live 4 a little while
If U could just learn 2 smile U and I could fly away, fly away." | |

Heard it all before (heard it all before) All of ya lies, all of ya sweet talk Baby this, Baby that But your lies ain't working now look who's hurting now See I had to shut you down (I had to shut you down) Played the fool before (played the fool before) I was your fool I believed in you Yes I did yes I did But your lies ain't working now look who's hurting now See I had to shut you down (I had to shut you down) WHat were you thinking bringing her into our home In our bed, you must have fell and bumped your head Messing up my sheets and violating me Have me bout to call my peeps and take it to the streets Nothing you can do And there's nothing you can say That would persuade me to stay with you another day You have crossed the line to the point of no return What you do from here on out I am no longer concerned See I..... Heard it all before (heard it all before) Let me explain, baby, it's not what you think, that's what you said to me But your lies ain't working now look who's hurting now See I had to shut you down (I had to shut you down) Played the fool before (played the fool before) You got a good game I must admit I was it but it's over But your lies ain't working now look who's hurting now See I had to shut you down (I had to shut you down) Use to hang on to your every word but the more you lie to me the more I hurt the things you use to say would sound so sweet I was naive Quick to believe Heard it all before I was at work, It wasn't my car you saw, baby, I swear it wasn't me But your lies ain't working now look who's hurting now See I had to shut you down (I had to shut you down) Played the fool before (played the fool before) you were my boo I trusted you for way too long But your lies ain't working now look who's hurting now See I had to shut you down (I had to shut you down) Heard it all before you know you messed up you got to know you messed up You got to go now say what you want But your lies ain't working now look who's hurting now See I had to shut you down (I had to shut you down) Played the fool before I done change the locks on the door, yes i did and you ain't welcome no more But your lies ain't working now look who's hurting now See I had to shut you down (I had to shut you down) See I heard it all before Say it's just a dream...

I'm writing these words like the fool that I am Trying to say something good like the person But it's all just a sham 'cos the writer I am not Could say anything, you'd believe them Just your A-typical Boy-girl-girl-boy androgynous Play on a publican's decoy 'Cos I had to drop out 'cos the Art School was sad and If you believe all of that you're a bigger fool than me The lyrics aren't supposed to mean that much They're just a vehicle for a lovely voice They aren't supposed to mean that much Lyrics mean nothing, don't right any wrongs In fact I'm not having them on this You say they mean nothing just gobbledy-gook But just look at yourself you're not clever enough Understanding the truth, you are so out of touch You believe all of this, you can't see it's a spoof Understand all the words when they don't even rhyme And I'm losing the rhythm and the whole thing's getting weirder and weirder The lyrics aren't supposed to mean that much They're just a vehicle for a lovely voice They aren't supposed to mean that much The lyrics aren't supposed to mean that much They're just a vehicle for a lovely voice They aren't supposed to mean that much They all believe me It's all so easy now The lyrics aren't supposed to mean that much They're just a vehicle for a lovely voice They aren't supposed to mean that much The lyrics aren't supposed to mean that much They're just a vehicle for a lovely voice They aren't supposed to mean that much | |

I was just thinking that I have been missing you for way too long
There’s something inside this weary head that wants us to love just instead But I was just thinking, merely thinking I’ve got loads of pictures I’ve got the one of you in that dancing dress But man I feel silly in that dim light just after doing you by the sight of My Kodak delights I am sinking, merely sinking I think about long distance rates instead of kissing you babe I’m a singer without a song If I wait for you longer my affection is stronger I, I was just thinking and thinking, merely thinking That this boat is sinking Yeah I'm tired of postcards Especially the ones with cute dogs and cupids I'm tired of calling you and missing you And dreaming that I've slept with you Don't get me wrong I still desperately love you Inside this weary head I just want us to love, just instead But I was just thinking and thinking, merely thinking I think about long distance rates instead of kissing you babe And time is running me still If I wait for you longer my affection is stronger I was just thinking Babe, I was just thinking That I’m tired of calling you once a week And thinking of long distance rates instead of kissing you Baby I’m sinking, merely sinking |

Bang Bang, He shot me down Bang Bang, I hit the ground Bang Bang, That awfull sound Bang Bang, My baby shot me down. Seasons came and changed the time, when i grew up i called him mine. He would allways laugh and say, remember when we used to play. Bang Bang, I shot you down Bang Bang, You hit the ground Bang Bang, I used to shoot you down. Music played and people said, just for me the churchbells rang. Now he's gone, I dont know why. And till this day, sometimes i cry. He didn't even say goodbye, he didnt take the time to lie.

 La la la la Listen La la la Hey Didn't you know I can help or hurt you So there's no reason to lie I bet you let those other niggas jerk you Convince you that they are fly I never said I was an angel Said but I ain't like those other guys Listen You're convinced that our experience rearranged you Well maybe you should reexamine How you tried Or Am I High? I think I've loved you since our high school But you only wanted friends of mine So when they replied Her she's cool Only then you gave our friendship time You won't say it but you think I'm changing Is it because the whole world calls me drugs Didn't I say I can help or hurt you You should be paranoid without me and with me feel a buzz Is that cocky or what Or Am I High? It's the kinda high that got me leaning 120 speeding in the rain Meaning of a hydroplane Play both sides of the field See I know pain Keep 'em high like Kurt Cobain Listen I'm known for speaking my mind Known for fleeing from the scene of a crime Eyes redder than the beam of my nine Eyes redder than the scene of that crime All for the love of the lime I'm so high Insinuating you're not that way I see how you look and use your eyes But when I ask you can I jump in Then you start again with the lines But if I dare you you'd blow a kiss to another Though my friends have no idea who you could be Don't worry I would never tell another But I ate your pussy as you layed there beside her yes she was asleep Am I High? Why am I sitting here Peering the sky Is there something inside of me or am I high From when we talk on the phone 'til when we fuck This sounds like deep lust to me But I get high on your love Am I High? | |

TOOL Black then white are all I see in my infancy. red and yellow then came to be, reaching out to me. lets me see. As below, so above and beyond, I imagine drawn beyond the lines of reason. Push the envelope. Watch it bend. Over thinking, over analyzing separates the body from the mind. Withering my intuition, missing opportunities and I must Feed my will to feel my moment drawing way outside the lines. Black then white are all I see in my infancy. red and yellow then came to be, reaching out to me. lets me see there is so much more and beckons me to look through to these infinite possibilities. As below, so above and beyond, I imagine drawn outside the lines of reason. Push the envelope. Watch it bend. Over thinking, over analyzing separates the body from the mind. Withering my intuition leaving all these opportunities behind. Feed my will to feel this moment urging me to cross the line. Reaching out to embrace the random. Reaching out to embrace whatever may come. I embrace my desire to feel the rhythm, to feel connected enough to step aside and weep like a widow to feel inspired, to fathom the power, to witness the beauty, to bathe in the fountain, to swing on the spiral of our divinity and still be a human. With my feet upon the ground I lose myself between the sounds and open wide to suck it in, I feel it move across my skin. I'm reaching up and reaching out, I'm reaching for the random or what ever will bewilder me. And following our will and wind we may just go where no one's been. We'll ride the spiral to the end and may just go where no one's been. Spiral out. Keep going, going... | |

Love is a stranger
In an open car To tempt you in And drive you far away And I want you And I want you And I want you so It's an obsession Love is a danger Of a different kind To take you away And leave you far behind And love love love Is a dangerous drug You have to receive it And you still can't Get enough of the stuff It's savage and it's cruel And it shines like destruction Comes in like the flood And it seems like religion It's noble and it's brutal It distorts and deranges And it wrenches you up And you're left like a zombie And I want you And I want you And I want you so It's an obsession It's guilt edged Glamorous and sleek by design You know it's jealous by nature False and unkind It's hard and restrained And it's totally cool It touches and it teases As you stumble in the debris And I want you And I want you And I want you so It's an obsession | |

NESSEONE said: Life springs eternal
On a gaudy neon street Not that I care at all I spent the best part of my losing streak In an Army Jeep For what I can't recall Oh I'm banging on my TV set And I check the odds And I place my bet I pour a drink And I pull the blind And I wonder what I'll find I'm Leaving Las Vegas Lights so bright Palm sweat, blackjack On a Saturday night Leaving Las Vegas Leaving for good, for good I'm leaving for good I'm leaving for good Used to be I could drive up to Barstow for the night Find some crossroad trucker To demonstrate his might But these days it seems Nowhere is far enough away So I'm leaving Las Vegas today Chorus I'm standing in the middle of the desert Waiting for my ship to come in But now no joker, no jack, no king Can take this loser hand And make it win I quit my job as a dancer At the Lido Des Girls Dealing blackjack until one or two Such a muddy line between The things you want And the things you have to do I'm leaving Las Vegas And I won't be back No I won't be back Not this time This is one of my favorite songs ever. I still act it out in my living room about once a week. I love 'Las Vegas' as a metaphor for anything that has been such an all-consuming obsession ... that it is as destructive as it is rapturous. ... and before annihilating ourselves we have to get away and vow never to return ... Love this song! So sad, so pathetic, so inspiring. She got away, she got away! When I was in my depression phase, I used to beg don't me leave Sheryl ... wait for me ... I wanna leave my Las Vegas too 
Anyway carry on... Oh--- and the lyric that is closest to my heart now is this one by Lenny: "You can fall in love with your life. Cuz that truly is romance."  | |

Eternal Life is now on my trail Got my red glitter coffin, man, just need one last nail While all these ugly gentlemen play out their foolish games There's a flaming red horizon that screams our names And as your fantasies are broken in two Did you really think this bloody road would Pave the way for you? You better turn around and blow your kiss hello to life eternal, angel Racist everyman, what have you done? Man, you've made a killer of your unborn son... Crown my fear your king at the point of a gun All I want to do is love everyone... And as your fantasies are broken in two Did you really think this bloody road would Pave the way for you? You better turn around and blow your kiss hello to life eternal.... There's no time for hatred, only questions What is love, where is happiness, what is Life, where is peace? When will I find the strength to bring me release? And tell me where is the love in what your prophet has said? Man, It sounds to me just like a prison for the walking dead And I've got a message for you and your twisted hell You better turn around and blow your kiss goodbye to life eternal angel... Insatiable taught me everything I know about balls.
