If ever lyrics summed up YOU..... What are they? Part II "Slow Down"
So far from where I started out. So far from where I wanna be. Listening for answers in the wind, But can't find a rock to plant my feet. Looking for love in all the wrong places. Down on my knees and now I'm praying for patience. I know there's gotta be a better way. In the back of my mind I hear my father say Slow down baby ya goin to fast. You got your hands in the air With your Feet on the gas. You 'bout to wreck your future, Run from your past. You need to slow down before you go down baby. Thinking the faster that I go The faster that I will reach my goal The race is not given to the swift But to the one who endureth. I thought that all of my obstacles were behind me. Walking around like I'm made out of diamond. I tripped and fell and it reminded me to move over and let the angels guide me. Slow down baby ya goin to fast. You got your hands in the air With your Feet on the gas. You 'bout to wreck your future, Run from your past. You need to slow down before you go down baby. Sometimes you gotta be still, before you can get ahead. Be still, ask the universe for help be real. You can't do it all by yourself... Ah, No...No... | |

I was working in the lab late one night
When my eyes beheld an eerie sight For my monster from his slab began to rise And suddenly to my surprise He did the mash He did the monster mash The monster mash It was a graveyard smash He did the mash It caught on in a flash He did the mash He did the monster mash From my laboratory in the castle east To the master bedroom where the vampires feast The ghouls all came from their humble abodes To get a jolt from my electrodes They did the mash They did the monster mash The monster mash It was a graveyard smash They did the mash It caught on in a flash They did the mash They did the monster mash The zombies were having fun The party had just begun The guests included Wolf Man Dracula and his son The scene was rockin', all were digging the sounds Igor on chains, backed by his baying hounds The coffin-bangers were about to arrive With their vocal group, "The Crypt-Kicker Five" They played the mash They played the monster mash The monster mash It was a graveyard smash They played the mash It caught on in a flash They played the mash They played the monster mash Out from his coffin, Drac's voice did ring Seems he was troubled by just one thing He opened the lid and shook his fist And said, "Whatever happened to my Transylvania twist?" It's now the mash It's now the monster mash The monster mash And it's a graveyard smash It's now the mash It's caught on in a flash It's now the mash It's now the monster mash Now everything's cool, Drac's a part of the band And my monster mash is the hit of the land For you, the living, this mash was meant too When you get to my door, tell them Boris sent you Then you can mash Then you can monster mash The monster mash And do my graveyard smash Then you can mash You'll catch on in a flash Then you can mash Then you can monster mash ~ I'D BUY THAT FOR A DOLLAR ~

Maybe we could make it all right
We could make it better sometime Maybe we could make it happen baby We could keep trying but things will never change So I don’t look back Still I’m dying with every step I take But I don’t look back Just a little, little bit better Good enough to waste some time Tell me would it make you happy baby We could keep trying but things will never change So I don’t look back Still I’m dying with every step I take But I don’t look back We could keep trying but things will never change So I don’t look back Still I’m dying with every step I take But I don’t look back And it hurts with every heartbeat And it hurts with every heartbeat And it hurts with every heartbeat And it hurts with every heartbeat And it hurts with every heartbeat And it hurts with every heartbeat And it hurts with every heartbeat It hurts wïth every heartbeat | |

Tried to save myself but myself keeps slipping away
Talking to myself all the way to the station Pictures in my head of the final destination All lined up (all the ones that aren`t allowed to stay) Tried to save myself but myself keeps slipping away Tried to save a place from the cuts and the scratches Tried to overcome the complications and the catches Nothing ever grows and the sun doesnt shine all day Tried to save myself but myself keeps slipping away Tried to save myself but myself keeps slipping away | |

Certainly not now, but a eerily accurate depiction of how things used to be...
DEACON BLUES This is the day Of the expanding man That shape is my shade There where I used to stand It seems like only yesterday I gazed through the glass At ramblers Wild gamblers That's all in the past You call me a fool You say it's a crazy scheme This one's for real I already bought the dream So useless to ask me why Throw a kiss and say goodbye I'll make it this time I'm ready to cross that fine line CHORUS: I'll learn to work the saxophone I'll play just what I feel Drink Scotch whisky all night long And die behind the wheel They got a name for the winners in the world I want a name when I lose They call Alabama the Crimson Tide Call me Deacon Blues My back to the wall A victim of laughing chance This is for me The essence of true romance Sharing the things we know and love With those of my kind Libations Sensations That stagger the mind I crawl like a viper Through these suburban streets Make love to these women Languid and bittersweet I'll rise when the sun goes down Cover every game in town A world of my own I'll make it my home sweet home CHORUS This is the night Of the expanding the man I take one last drag As I approach the stand I cried when I wrote this song Sue me if I play too long This brother is free I'll be what I want to be CHORUS tA Tribal Disorder http://www.soundclick.com...dID=182431 "Ya see, we're not interested in what you know...but what you are willing to learn. C'mon y'all." | |

I can't lay down My past Sometimes I'm too blind to see You laughing at me Although you hit me hard I come back Some... Some-times You drag me on No words to explain Altough you through away my name From your mind I have to try Although my heart is bruised by your words Sometimes Sometimes Sometimes Sometimes I can't lay down My past Sometimes I'm too blind to see You laughing at me Although you hit me hard I come back Some... Some... Sometimes, you drag me on No words to explain Altough you through away my name From your mind I have to try Although my heart is bruised by your words Sometimes... Sometimes...

Goldsoundz by Pavement
go back to those gold soundz and keep my advent to your self because it's nothing i don't like is it a crisis or a boring change? when it's central, so essential, it has a nice ring when you laugh at the low life opinions and they're coming to the chorus now... i keep your address to myself 'cause we need secrets we need secrets crets crets crets crets crets back right now because i never wanna make you feel that you're social never ignorant soul believe in what you wanna do and do you think that is a major flaw when they rise up in the falling rain and if you stay around with your knuckles ground down the trial's over, weapon's found keep my address to myself because it's secret cuz it's secret cret cret cret [etc.]... back right now so drunk in the august sun and you're the kind of girl i like because you're empty and i'm empty and you can never quarantine the past did you remember in december that i won''t eat you when i'm gone and if i go there, i won't stay there because i'm sitting here too long i've been sitting here too long and i've been wasted advocating that word for the last word last words come up all you've got to waste dunno why, but I connect with these lyrics! http://www.youtube.com/wa...O1Dp_k_GO4 [Edited 8/17/07 10:58am] | |

Lie awake in bed at night
And think about your life Do you want to be different? Try to let go of the truth The battles of your youth 'Cause this is just a game It's a beautiful lie It's the perfect denial Such a beautiful lie to believe in So beautiful, beautiful it makes me It's time to forget about the past To wash away what happened last Hide behind an empty face Don't ask too much, just say 'Cause this is just a game Everyone's looking at me I'm running around in circles, baby A quiet desperation's building higher I've got to remember this is just a game So beautiful, beautiful... | |

My, my what a mess we've made
of our pretty little heads these days It appears a heavy wind's blown through here recently Best wishes have been made for you You never had no say it's true You have to be the cutest gravedigger I've ever seen And all your lonely nights in the city of lights are much like all these crowded bars I so often find my stupid self stumbling through My, my what a mess was made of my head when I heard what you'd been through that day It appears a violent storm's passed through you recently Letters meant to be sent have been torn The phone lies off the hook, on the floor All these "I'm sorry"s and "I miss you"s are useless, I fucked this one up long ago And all your lonely nights in the city of lights are much like all these crowded bars I so often find my stupid self stumbling through Fuck you Aurora, You took my only friend And although it's all my fault, the blaming myself had to come to an end so I say: Fuck you Aurora, You took my only friend You wont catch me behind the wheel of a Chrysler ever again My, my what a mess we've made of our precious little lives these days It appears a big fucking tornado has twisted us up recently Best wishes have been made for you You never had no say it's true You have to be the cutest gravedigger I've ever seen And all your lonely nights in the city of lights are much like all these crowded bars I so often find my stupid self stumbling through Fuck you Aurora, You took my only friend And although it's all my fault, the blaming myself had to come to an end so I say: Fuck you Aurora, You took my only friend You won't catch me behind the wheel of a Chrysler ever again [Edited 8/25/07 10:26am] I've reached in darkness and come out with treasure

I got it bad
You don't know how bad I got it You got it easy you don't know when you've got it good It's getting harder just keeping life and soul together I'm sick of fighting even though I know I should The cold is biting through each and ev'ry nerve and fibre My broken spirit is frozen to the core Don't want to be here no more... Wouldn't it be good to be in your shoes even if it was for just one day And wouldn't it be good if we could wish ourselves away Wouldn't it be good to be on your side The grass in always greener over there Wouldn't it be good if we could live without a care You must be joking You don't know a thing about it You've got no problems I'd stay right there if I were you I got it harder You couldn't dream how hard I got it Stay out of my shoes if you know what's good for you The heat is stifling bunrning me up from the inside The sweat is coming through each and ev'ry pore I don't want to be here no more...

tongue-tied and twisted, just an earthbound misfit, I" | |

There's a hope in my head
That's been cut and bled Dry as your bloodshot eyes And there's smoke in the air And it's soon to clear Revealing our demise There are some who say That it's a-okay If it makes you feel alright It's just way too bad Now you're worse than sad All locked up there inside And I don't know how you feel But I'll make you a deal If you make it out alive My shoulders and ears Are all yours my dear I hope it comes as no surprise You've been known to say That you're a-okay When you're feeling sick inside I just want you to know I got no place to go Until the day you die While you're waiting Be thankful for your fingers I'll be fading With the colors of your pictures "I'm not crying wolf," you whisper, "I'm really dead this time... I'm really dead this time" There's a hope in my head That's been cut and bled Dry as your bloodshot eyes And there's smoke in the air And it's soon to clear Revealing our demise You've been known to say That you're a-okay When you're feeling dead inside I just want you to know I got no place to go Until the day you die While you're waiting, Be thankful for your fingers, I'll be fading With the colors of your pictures "I'm not crying wolf," you whisper, "I'm really dead this time... I'm really dead this time" They locked you up They threw away the key Sutured your mouth shut Murdered your family Right before your eyes What could you do? Right before your eyes They took it all from you Your contemplating You hanging from your ceiling Can't help hating You for having that feeling I'm not joking when I tell you I'd miss you all the time I already miss you all the time I've reached in darkness and come out with treasure

I thought that you were joking
When you said you couldn't breathe You said you couldn't breathe Turns out that you were choking On a town you couldn't leave You knew you'd never leave It met your disapproval at the age of 8 years old You were only 8 years old From then on there was no removal From that one way dead end road That one way dead end road I thought that you were laughing When you cried your eyeballs out You cried your eyeballs out And i don't mean to be prying But what were you so sad about What are you still sad about Met your disappointment at the age of 9 years old You were only 9 years old From then on there would be no ointment To take away these burns To make that pain grow dull and forever ain't that long When your smile's stuck in your head like a pop song All you think about is death Your dirty head has gone unswept for way too long now For way too long now I thought that you were sleeping When i found you there in bed I found you there in bed When i touched you you were freezing It turned out that you were dead It turned out that you were dead It met your disapproval at the age of 8 years old You were only 8 years old From then on there was no removal From your fucked up head and your broken home and forever ain't that long When your smile's stuck in your head like a pop song All you think about is death Your dirty head has gone unswept for way too long now For way too long now For way too long now For way too long now I've reached in darkness and come out with treasure

Mr. Nothing's got a lot
He's got a lot to say He's good at being what he's not Gives nothing away Another day goes on by And he never speaks his heart He takes his chance with what he's got It's too late now to stop You push and you pull and struggle with the knot It's tying you up while you're fadin' You give and you take and take what you got Round and round 'till it breaks and You push and you pull and struggle with the knot It's tying you up while you're fadin' into your lie Mr. Nothing is late He's running out of time He questions whether chance or fate will ever show a sign Looks to the sky above For a glimpse of what it means And never never never make Make no sense to him You push and you pull and struggle with the knot It's tying you up while you're fadin' You give and you take and take what you got Round and round 'till it breaks and You push and you pull and struggle with the knot It's tying you up while you're fadin' into your lie You push and you pull it He was like a cock who thought the sun had risen to hear him crow.

"Changes"
I'm not suposed to be scared of anything, but I don't know where I am I wish that I could move but I'm exhausted and nobody understands (how I feel) I'm trying hard to breathe now but there's no air in my lungs There's no one here to talk to and the pain inside is making me numb I try to hold this Under control They can't help me 'Cause no one knows Now I'm going through changes, changes God, I feel so frustrated lately When I get suffocated, save me Now I'm going through changes, changes I'm feeling weak and weary walking through this world alone Everything you say, every word of it, cuts me to the bone I've got something to say, but now I've got no where to turn It feels like I've been buried underneath all the weight of the world I try to hold this Under control They can't help me 'Cause no one knows Now I'm going through changes, changes God, I feel so frustrated lately When I get suffocated, save me Now I'm going through changes, changes I'm blind and shakin' Bound and breaking I hope I make it through all these changes Now I'm going through changes, changes God, I feel so frustrated lately When I get suffocated, save me Now I'm falling apart, now I feel it But I'm going through changes, changes God, I feel so frustrated lately And I get suffocated, I hate this But I'm going through changes, changes | |

Holding On To You by Terence Trent D'Arby
I left the east side for a west coast beauty A girl who burned my thoughts like kisses She was down by street decree She swore she'd pull my best years out of me Fat painted lips on a live wire beauty A tangerine girl with tambourine eyes Her face was my favourite magazine Her body was my favourite book to read They say that all poets must have and unrequited love As all lovers must have thought provoking fears But holding on to you means letting go on pain Means letting go of tears Means letting go of rain Means letting go of what's not real Holding on to you I left the rough side for a seaside baby A chamomile smile that pouts on cue For every moment I breathe her sigh Her bosom contains my sweet alibi In an emotional mist she breathes in fog And breathes it out as garden flowers Why me of all the tough talking boys? I guess she heard my heartbeat through the noise They say that all poets must have an unrequited love As all lovers must have thought provoking fears But holding on to you means letting go of pain Means letting go of tears Means letting go of the rain Holding on to you Means letting sorrows heal Means letting go of what's not real Holding on to you They say that all poets must have an unrequited love As all lovers I'm sure must have thought provoking fears But holding on to you means letting sorrows heal Means letting go of what's not real Holding on to you I left the east coast for a west coast beauty A woman who burned my thoughts like kisses She was down by street decree She swore she'd pull my best years out of me Fat wet lips on a sea salt canvas Goodbye Picasso hello Dolly/Dali The soil is fertile where her footsteps trod She's my new religion she's all I got They say that all poets must have an unrequited love As all lovers I'm sure must have thought provoking fears But holding on to you means letting go of pain Means letting go of tears Means letting go of rain Means letting sorrows heal It means letting go | |

There is freedom within,
there is freedom without Try to catch the deluge in a paper cup There's a battle ahead, many battles are lost But you'll never see the end of the road While you're travelling with me Hey now, hey now Don't dream it's over Hey now, hey now When the world comes in They come, they come To build a wall between us We know they won't win Now I'm towing my car, there's a hole in the roof My possessions are causing me suspicions but there's no proof In the paper today tales of war and of waste But you turn right over to the T.V. page Hey now, hey now Don't dream it's over Hey now, hey now When the world comes in They come, they come To build a wall between us We know they won't win Now I'm walking again to the beat of a drum And I'm counting the steps to the door of your heart Only the shadows ahead barely clearing the roof Get to know the feeling of liberation and release Hey now, hey now Don't dream it's over Hey now, hey now When the world comes in They come, they come To build a wall between us Don't ever let them win.

Turn and Run There’s a light overhead overhead In the sky overhead overhead And I’m with you now in body and music and mind And we’re silent and still Everything’s so out of control tonight In a plane that’s flying fast At a speed that makes me cry Have you left me now To trouble that won’t let me lie I’m awake all the time You know where I stand Holding my plastic gun So turn and run You cold killers of innocence Against us there’s no defence Your flash and your wickedness You can’t break our love Tie my hands behind my back Put a gag on top of my mouth But I won’t give you up Till silverware’s covered in dust And my shoes fall apart And the tumbleweed runs Over my desert heart So turn and run You cold killers of innocence Against us there’s no defence Your flash and your wickedness Will surely bring you down again Somehow we must stay afloat Won’t give in to the undertow Something’s you will never know You can’t break our love You can pull us down But you can’t break our love | |

Solo
So low, the curb looks like a skyscraper So high, the stars are under me So quiet, i can hear the blood rushing through my veins So low, i feel like i'm going insane The angels, they watch in wonder When u made love 2 me Through the rain and the thunder U cried in ecstacy And u were so kind I felt sorry 4 all creation Because at the time, no 1 was lucky No 1 was lucky, no 1 was lucky as me And now u're gone and i just wanna be still So silent, i'll just let my senses sleep It's gonna be so hard 2 hear my voice If i ever learn once more 2 speak I'm so lost, no 1 can find me And i've been looking 4 so long But now i'm done I'm so low, solo, my name is No One | |
