There's a gap in between
There's a gap where we meet
Where I end and you begin
And I'm sorry for us
The dinosaurs roam the earth
The sky turns green
Where I end and you begin

I am up in the clouds
I am up in the clouds
And I can't and I can't come down
I can watch and not take part
Where I end and where you start
Where you, you left me alone
You left me alone

X'll mark the place
Like the parting of the waves
Like a house falling in the sea
In the sea

I will eat you alive
I will eat you alive
I will eat you alive
I will eat you alive
There'll be no more lies
There'll be no more lies
There'll be no more lies
There'll be no more lies
I will eat you alive
I will eat you alive
I will eat you alive
I will eat you alive
There'll be no more lies
There'll be no more lies
There'll be no more lies
There'll be no more lies
I will eat you alive
I will eat you alive
I will eat you alive
I will eat you alive
There'll be no more lies
There'll be no more lies
There'll be no more lies
There'll be no more lies
I will eat you alive
I will eat you alive
I will eat you alive

Mazarine
03:51 / 13.04.03
We're too young to fall asleep,
Too cynical to speak,
We are losing it,
Can't you tell?

We scratch our eternal itch,
A twentieth century bitch,
And we are grateful for,
Our iron lung.

A bit of Radiohead, "My Iron Lung"

As soon as I get my head around you
I come around catching sparks off you
I get an electric shock from you
This secondhand living just won't do
And the way I feel tonight
I could die and I wouldn't mind
And there's something going on inside
Makes you wanna feel
Makes you wanna try
Makes you wanna blow the stars from the sky
And I can't stand up
I can't cool down
I can't get my head off the ground
As soon as I get my head around you
I come around catching sparks off you
And all I ever got from you
Was all I ever took from you
Yeah, the world could die in pain
And I wouldn't feel no shame
And there's nothing holding me to blame
Makes you wanna feel
Makes you wanna try
Makes you wanna blow the stars from the sky
And I'm taking myself to a dirty part of town
Where all my troubles can't be found
I said yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
And I'm taking myself to a dirty part of town
Where all my troubles can't be found
Makes you wanna feel
Makes you wanna try
Makes you wanna blow the stars from the sky - Jesus and Mary Chain (or Pixies): Head On

Lyrics of my decade. Yes! Eek! Weee!
 
 
STOATIE LIEKS CHOCOLATE MILK
08:52 / 13.04.03
Metaphor for a missing moment
Pull me into your perfect circle

One womb One chain One resolve

Liberate this will
To release us all

Gotta cut away, clear away snip away and sever this umbilical residue
Keeping me from killing you

And from pulling you down with me
In here I can almost hear you scream

One more medicated peaceful moment (give me)
One more medicated peaceful moment

And I don't wanna feel this overwhelming hostility
No, I don't wanna feel this world around me hostility
Kill it
Gotta cut away clear away
Snip away inside of this umbilical residue
Gotta cut away clear away
Snip away inside of this umbilical residue
Keeping me from killing you
Keeping me from killing you

"Orestes"- A Perfect Circle

And of course, nothing sums me up better than:

I need alcohol to open my blood
I need alcohol because it opens my head
I need alcohol
I need alcohol

"Alcohol the Seed"- Swans
 
 
Matthew Fluxington
14:50 / 14.04.03
think of a number
divide it by two
something is nothing
nothing is nothing

open a box
tear off the lid
then think of a number
don't think of an answer

open your eyes
think of a number
don't get swept under
a number's a number

a chance encounter
you want to avoid
the inevitable
so you do
oh yes, you do
the impossible

now you ain't got a number
you just want to rhumba
and there ain't no way you're gonna go under

go under, go under
go under, go under
you tear me asunder
go under, go under
go under!

(Not for you, Rothkoid - there's another that deserves this one!)

Stand up
You've got to manage
I won't sympathize
Anymore.

And if you complain once more
You'll meet an army of me
And if you complain once more
You'll meet an army of me

You're alright
There's nothing wrong
Self-sufficience please!
And get to work.

And if you complain once more
You'll meet an army of me
And if you complain once more
You'll meet an army of me
Army of me

You're on your own now
We won't save you
Your rescue-squad
Is to exhausted

And if you complain once more
You'll meet an army of me
And if you complain once more
You'll meet an army of me
And if you complain once more
You'll meet an army of me
And if you complain once more
You'll meet an army of me
Army of me

In pitch dark I go walking in your landscape
Broken branches trip me as i speak
Just cos you feel it doesn’t mean it’s there
Just cos you feel it doesn’t mean it’s there

There's always a siren singing you to shipwreck
Don’t reach out, don't reach out
Don’t reach out, don't reach out
Steer away from these rocks we'd be a walking disaster
Don’t reach out, don't reach out
Don’t reach out, don't reach out

Just cos you feel it doesn't mean it’s there
There’s someone on your shoulder
There’s someone on your shoulder

Just coz you feel it doesn't mean it’s there
There’s someone on your shoulder
There’s someone on your shoulder

Feel it

Why so green
And lonely
And lonely
And lonely

Heaven sent you
To me
To me
To me

We are accidents waiting
Waiting to happen

We are accidents waiting
Waiting to happen

Radiohead, There There.

Natural splits sunburn jets price marks smart bets
Strikers luck pitch backs heap tips pit slacks
Dressed pints demon shrinks bread drunk dead drinks
Stretch clubs models box draw skin black shocks

Money spines paper lung kidney bingos organ fun

Flag stunt rock stone dole axe crash dive
Breathe thrift take speed double take weekends
Skull row drugs hall colour bars sex calls
Sparkle finds rented rings pretty things clipped wings

Money spines paper lung kidney bingos organ fun

Gold street spy fleet scandal food poor treat
Fire run club gun rule mob burn some
Bomb time pop crime stock frame steady climb
Fresh name donor game fair meat all the same

The Return Of Rothkoid
23:34 / 17.04.03
I know this guy
If I'm the mayonnaise he's the cream
Some sit and wait for the ride
While others become the scene
And he can see a Wednesday morning
Like others see Friday night
It's all an open book
It's just how you vandalise

A double stitch on the shirttail
While the rest of us split on the seams
He talks about Art Blakey
And I pretend to know what he means
So now it's three gigs a night
While your girl digs up the UAE
And burn up like a matchstick
The whole damn city can see

The sun caught me hiding
Just enough for someone to see
My heart in my hands, the tracks of my glands
Cracking through the grit in my teeth
So when did you decide
That there's only so much you can lose?
The best choices come
Just when there's nothing left to choose

So you blow up letterboxes and chlorine bombs
'Coz it's a weekend blitz on the dicks who just can't whistle the tune
Yeah and yeah hit while I sit here on my hands
Measuring compliments with a spoon
And I'm never too far away

I know this guy
If I'm the mayonnaise he's the cream
Some sit and wait for the ride
While others become the scene
And he can see a Wednesday morning
Like others see Friday night
It's all an open book
It's just how you vandalise

You Am I, "...And Vandalism"
 
 
Ethan Hawke
23:39 / 17.04.03
And I do not wish this misery upon you
or anyone else that it may desire
though it is my fear darling that it'll choose you
and it is my fear darling that you will requite it.
 
 
Regrettable Juvenilia
12:09 / 19.04.03
I still dream
Of Orgonon
I wake up crying
You're making rain
And you're just in reach
When you and sleep escape me

You're like my yo-yo
That glowed in the dark
What made it special
Made it dangerous
So I bury it
And forget

But every time it rains
You're here in my head
Like the sun coming out
Ooh, I just know that something good is going to happen
I don't know when
But just saying it could even make it happen

On top of the world
Looking over the edge
You could see them coming
You looked too small
In their big, black car
To be a threat to the men in power

I hid my yo-yo
In the garden
I can't hide you
From the government
Oh, God, Daddy
I won't forget

'Cause every time it rains
You're here in my head
Like the sun coming out
Ooh, I just know that something good is going to happen
I don't know when
But just saying it could even make it happen...

- Kate Bush, 'Cloudbusting'

(I never get tired of that one.)
 
 
Foust is SO authentic
00:54 / 20.04.03
Best love song I've ever heard.

One Of The Best Ones by Bruce Cockburn.

Guess I'd get along without you
If I had no choice
It's taken me this long to find you

Done a lot of getting ready for this
Some things we learn so slow
But look at you, you've got plenty behind you

There's lots of ways to hit the ground
Not many answers to be found
We're faced with mysteries profound
And this is one of the best ones

There are eight million mysteries
In the naked body
Can't even sight on some distant horizon

Like the nine billion names of God
Don't bring you any closer
To anyone you can simply set eyes on

But in the same way it's as real
Don't always recognize what I feel
But of the dancing scenes that life reveals
This is one of the best ones

Say what you will
There's no snake oil or pill
Can make love less painful or fine
There's no theatre
Even of the absurd
Can express what goes on in this meeting of hearts and minds

Guess I'd get along without you
If I had no choice
But please never make it so I have to

Paid a lot of dues to get here
And after all this life
I'm a loser if I don't live with you

There's lots of ways to hit the ground
Not many answers to be found
We're faced with mysteries profound
And this is one of the best ones

"Wicked Game"--The cover by HIM, much cooler than that guy on the beach...

The world was on fire, no-one could save me but you
It's strange what desire will make foolish people do
I'd never dreamed that I'd need somebody like you
And I'd never dreamed that I'd need somebody like you

No I don't wanna fall in love
this world is always gonna brake your heart
No I don't wanna fall in love
this world is always gonna brake your heart
..with you

What a wicked game to play
To make me feel this way
What a wicked thing to do
To let me dream of you
What a wicked thing to say
You never felt this way
What a wicked thing you do
To make me dream of you

No I don't wanna fall in love
this world is always gonna brake your heart
No I don't wanna fall in love
this world is always gonna brake your heart
..with you

The world was on fire, no-one could save me but you
It's strange what desire will make foolish people do
No and I never dreamed that I'd love somebody like you
I'll never dream that I lose somebody like you, no

Now I wanna fall in love
This world is always gonna brake your heart
Now I wanna fall in lust
This world is always gonna brake your heart
..with you

Nobody loves no-one

I'm having a band few days of it.


I was born in this town, live here my whole life
Probably come to die in this town, live here my whole life
Never anything to do in this town, live here my whole life
Never anything to do in this town, live here my whole life
Probably learn to die in this town, live here my whole life
Nothing to do, sit around at home
Sit around at home, stare at the walls
Stare at each other and wait till we die
Stare at each other and wait till we die
Probably come to die in this town, live here my whole life
There's Kerosene around, something to do
There's Kerosene around, she's something to do
There's Kerosene around, she's something to do
There's Kerosene around, we'll find something to do
Kerosene around, she's something to do
Kerosene around, set me on fire
Set me on fire, Kerosene
Set me on fire, Kerosene
Set me on fire, Kerosene
Set me on fire, Kerosene
Set me on fire
Kerosene around, something to do
There's Kerosene around, find something to do
There's Kerosene around, find something to do
Kerosene around, find something to do
Kerosene around, she's something to do
Kerosene around, set me on fire
Set me on fire, Kerosene
Set me on fire, Kerosene
Set me on fire, Kerosene
Set me on fire, Kerosene
Set me on fire
Kerosene around, she's something to do
Kerosene around, now what do we do?
Jumped Kerosene, now what do we do?
Jumped Kerosene, now what do we do?
Kerosene around, nothing to do
Jumped Kerosene, now what do we do?
Never anything to do in this town
Never anything but jump Kerosene
Never anything to do in this town
Never anything
Jump Kerosene
Set me on fire, Kerosene
Set me on fire, Kerosene
Set me on fire, Kerosene
Set me on fire, Kerosene
Set me on fire

You

Still a whisper on my lips
A feeling at my fingertips
That's pulling at my skin

You

Leave me when I'm at my worst
Feeling as if I've been cursed
Bitter cold within

Days go by and still I think of you
Days when I couldn't live my life without you
Days go by and still I think of you
Days when I couldn't live my life without you
Without you

You

Still a whisper on my lips
A feeling at my fingertips
That's pulling at my skin

Days go by and still I think of you
Days when I couldn't live my life without you
Days go by and still I think of you
Days when I couldn't live my life without you
Without you.

Days Go By Dirty Vegas

Birds flying high, you know how I feel
Sun in the sky, you know how I feel
Breeze driftin' on by, you know how I feel

It's a new dawn
It's a new day
It's a new life
For me
And I'm feeling good

Fish in the sea, you know how I feel
River running free, you know how I feel
Blossom on the tree, you know how I feel

It's a new dawn
It's a new day
It's a new life
For me
And I'm feeling good

Dragonfly out in the sun - you know what I mean, don't you know?
Butterflies all havin' fun, you know what I mean
Sleep in peace when day is done
That's what I mean

And this old world is a new world
And a bold world
For me

Stars when you shine, you know how I feel
Scent of the pine, you know how I feel
Oh freedom is mine
And I know how I feel

It's a new dawn
It's a new day
It's a new life
For me
And I'm feeling good

- Nina Simone, 'Feeling Good'

Cheer up, motherfuckers, you're alive, eh?

give me the easiest thing i can do
let me blank it from my mind
tell me the easiest thing i can do
let me blank it from my mind

the world seems so small
the sooner you realize it
as people we are so small
i know you've realized it

it might be a good thing if there were no heroes
i can't take heroes
it might be a good thing if we had no heroes
there are no heroes

teach me the easiest thing i can do
let me blank it from my mind
i'll gather up all my remaining education
and blank it from my mind

the world seems so small
the sooner you realize it
as people we are so small
i know you've realized it

it might be a good thing if there were no heroes
i can't take heroes
it might be a good thing if we had no heroes
there are no heroes

so why do you always hinder me?
why do you always hinder me?
i'm lost in the remote past
and there's no need to remind me

come on in!

graaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaave architecture
graaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaave architecture

walk the marble malls, the monuments to those who fall
and in the pocket, less than narco shell bit

stiff the crypt and the others are rough
and the hood's so RAD
and I'm FUCKING GLAD
glad to see that I know what it means
it takes a lot!

graaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaave architecture
graaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaave architecture

stroll past the strip
is it old, am I clipped
am I just a phantom waiting to be gripped?

around on shady ground
and the lampshades poised on the overwhelmed
crooks they need the talent to breed
it takes a lot!

any wannabe, like a blind fish
we're positive
we're POSITIVE
GO!

it takes a locksmith, baby, to put you off
and I'm pushing you back,
AAAAAAAbjdjd8tje09jewnfvfjdgkdkasdAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!

I accept, I do decline
I accept, I do decline
I accept, I do decline
I accept!
I do DECLINE!

Damn it feels good to be a gangsta
A real gangsta-ass nigga plays his cards right
A real gangsta-ass nigga never runs his fuckin mouth
Cuz real gangsta-ass niggas don't start fights
And niggas always gotta high cap
Showin' all his boys how he shot em
But real gangsta-ass niggas don't flex nuts
Cuz real gangsta-ass niggas know they got em
And everythings cool in the mind of a gangsta
Cuz gangsta-ass niggas think deep
Up three-sixty-five a year 24/7
Cuz real gangsta ass niggas don't sleep

And all I gotta say to you
Wannabe, gonnabe, cocksuckin', pussy-eatin' prankstas
Cuz when the fry dies down what the fuck you gonna do
Damn it feels good to be a gangsta

Damn it feels good to be a gangsta
Feedin' the poor and hepin out wit they bills
Although I was born in Jamaica
Now I'm in the US makin' deals
Damn it feels good to be a gangsta
I mean one that you don't really know
Ridin' around town in a drop-top Benz
Hittin' switches in my black six-fo'
Now gangsta-ass niggas come in all shapes and colors
Some got killed in the past
But this gangtsa here was a smart one
Started living for the lord and I'll last

Now all I gotta say to you
Wannabe, gonnabe, pussy-eatin' cocksuckin' prankstas
When the shit jumps off what the fuck you gonna do
Damn it feels good to be a gangsta

Damn it feels good to be a gangsta
A real gangta-ass nigga knows the play
Real gangsta-ass niggas get the flyest of the bitches
Ask that gangsta-ass nigga Little Jake
Now bitches look at gangsta-ass niggas like a stop sign
And play the role of Little Miss Sweet
But catch the bitch all alone get the digit take her out
and then dump-hittin' the ass with the meat
Cuz gangsta-ass niggas be the gang playas
And everythings quiet in the clique
A gangsta-ass nigga pulls the trigger
And his partners in the posse ain't tellin' off shit
Real gangsta-ass niggas don't talk much
All ya hear is the black from the gun blast
And real gangsta-ass niggas don't run for shit
Cuz real gangsta-ass niggas can't run fast
Now when you in the free world talkin' shit do the shit
Hit the pen and let the mothafuckas shank ya
But niggas like myself kick back and peep game
Cuz damn it feels good to be a gangsta

And now, a word from the President!
Damn it feels good to be a gangsta
Gettin voted into the White House
Everything lookin good to the people of the world
But the Mafia family is my boss
So every now and then I owe a favor gettin' down
like lettin' a big drug shipment through
And send 'em to the poor community
So we can bust you know who
So voters of the world keep supportin' me
And I promise to take you very far
Other leaders better not upset me
Or I'll send a million troops to die at war
To all you Republicans, that helped me win
I sincerely like to thank you
Cuz now I got the world swingin' from my nuts
And damn it feels good to be a gangsta

You could be my unintended,
Choice to live my life extended,
You could be the one I'll always love.

You could be the one who listens,
To my deepest inquisitions,
You could be the one I'll always love.

I'll be there as soon as I can,
But I'm busy mending broken,
Pieces of the life I had before.

First there was the one who challenged,
All my dreams and all my balance,
She could never be as good as you.

You could be my unintended,
Choice to live my life extended,
You should be the one I'll always love.

I'll be there as soon as I can,
But I'm busy mending broken,
Pieces of the life I had before.

I'll be there as soon as I can,
But I'm busy mending broken,
Pieces of the life I had before.
Before you.

Someone told me once
that there's a right and wrong,
and that punishment
would come to those
who dare to cross the line.

But it must not be true
for jerk-offs like you.
Maybe it takes longer to catch a total asshole.
but I'm tired of waiting.
Maybe it's just bullshit and I should play GOD,
and shoot you myself.
Because I'm tired of waiting.

yeah, don't listen, 'cause we stole everything.

yeah, it's true, we got it from you,
don't worry man, there's nothing new

stay outside,
there's nothing in here that you would call alive

with your own little shoes on your own little feet,
you'll never win or lose on your own little street,
when you're suckin' on your thumb and it's all goin' numb
and you're looking in the mirror and your looking so dumb,

well don't expect my invitation to come,
in your own little can where you cut out the noise.
you're too busy spittin' out mouthwash,
too busy spittin' out your own voice.

you keep saying, "I've got a car outside,"
"I've got a car outside," "I've got a car outside,"
"I've got a car outside," "I've got a car outside,"
well it that's true child, go take a ride!

3 chords, yeah, they're yours,
we stole them from your bottom drawer!
16 strings or something,
yeah, don't listen, 'cause we stole everything!


yeah, it's true, we got it from you,
don't worry man, there's nothing new.

stay outside,
there's nothing in here that you would call alive

Everybody knows that you love me baby
Everybody knows that you really do
Everybody knows that you've been faithful
Ah give or take a night or two
Everybody knows you've been discreet
But there were so many people you just had to meet
Without your clothes
And everybody knows

I know this is so last year but...

YOU KNOW YOU'RE RIGHT.
YOU KNOW YOU'RE RIGHT.
YOU KNOW YOU'RE RIGHT.
YeaaaaaeHeaaaeeHeeeae.
etc.

my future is static
it's already had it
I could tuck you in
and we can talk about it
I had a dream
and it split the scene
but I got a hunch
it's coming back to me

--

LOOK BEFORE YOU LEAP, OKAY
DO YOU READ ME - DO I DRIFT
MAY ALL YOUR DREAMS COME TRUE - DO I DREAM
HE'S STANDING BY THE DOOR - DO YOU READ ME
HE'S GOT SOMETHING IN HIS HANDS
I'M NOT SPEAKING TO YOU - ALL THE MONEY'S GONE
DO YOU READ ME - ALL THE MONEY'S GONE
I DREAMED - THE DAYS WE SPENT GO ON AND ON
SHIFT - FUCKING YOUTH - I DREAM
WORKING YOUTH - MAY ALL YOUR DREAMS COME TRUE
SOUNDS TODAY - I HEAR THE SOUND TODAY
I HEAR THE SOUND OF TODAY
A LOT OF PEOPLE SUFFER FROM IMPOTENCE
SOUNDS TODAY - I HEAR THE SOUND TODAY
I HEAR THE SOUND OF TODAY
ALL THE MONEY'S GONE - TODAY
THE DAYS WE SPENT GO ON AND ON - DREAM
FUCKING YOUTH - WORKING YOUTH
FUCKING YOUTH - WORKING YOUTH
THE DAYS WE SPENT GO ON AND ON
FUCKING YOUTH - DREAM
WORKING YOUTH - DO YOU READ ME

O Sister Judith, all of gold
open up your doors
we're about to start

in the lobby at dawn with my golden hangover on
speaking in three tongues, lifted and gifted
the carpet lights and camera flash
she wins third prize
bless these days that do not last

you're in their book of failures
with presidents and jailers
just keep marching on
past the doctors taking temperatures
my darling, they have used you
take back the secrets of your youth
your radio tones,
your matchstick truth,
and valentines of blue

back to our town,
I watch it tumbling down
these are the holes that I tore in the clothes that I wore
and I will fiddle as it burns,
I fiddle as it burns,
I fiddle as it burns to the ground

your necklace of handcuffs helps you to hold your head up
on these streets that sparkle at the bottom of your cup
and this school is made of spiderwebs
and kisses for your geniuses
but where's that cool eyed freaked at the end of your losing streak?
for forty days and forty nights underneath the Christmas lights
has my name been erased from the blackboard of your heart?

back to our town
I watch it tumbling down
these are the holes that I tore in the clothes that you wore
and I will fiddle as it burns,
I fiddle as it burns,
I fiddle as it burns to the ground

the damage has been done,
I am not having fun anymore

do what you do
when you try
what you get
when you see the light
come down,
I'll set my hope
in a wonderful hospital man

we got room to live
room to live in
rooms to give
but no room to give in,
but you never had a chance
no, you never had a chance

to those above
toss us out
run us down
throw us out
we get down
so so hard

but your vulgar display
caught me off gaurd
a cold cold boy with American heart
gonna run in
and lock up the shots again

well, my heart is not a wide open thing
I know
there is hardly not a lot to say

tied, tied, tied to the tracks
just remember the facts
repeat until you're running aground again

My TV and you
It's the only place to be
Nothing else to do
Nothing else to see
A room without a view
Has so much for me and you
I was born to stare
At stars on ceiling walls

It's all I need
It's all I ever needed
Until the world is gone

Take me how I am
'cause you know I'll never change
I was born to stare
At who stares back at me

If I make it up
To that big show in the sky
All I really want
Is my TV and you

It's all I need
It's all I ever needed
Until the world is gone

It's all I need
It's all I ever needed
My love for life is gone

These lyrics just make me ache.
By Over The Rhine

thank you my angel
for blessing me
with these words and for giving me
what i was hungry for
a taste of dirt
from the floor of heaven

thank you my angel
for cutting off my hands
forbidding me
to trace the lines of this miracle
across the great divide
for making love a foreign language

thank you my angel
for fluttering out my window
for telling me
all those lies about myself
it was your way of bandaging the bleeding

thank you my angel
for the clutter of my life
for dragging me
to the edge of the wilderness
to lie here by myself
just outside the land of promise

love, love will keep us together
think of me babe whenever
some sweet talking boy comes along singing a song
don't mess around, you got to be strong,
just stop, 'cause I really love you,
stop, I'll be thinking of you --
look in my heart and let love keep us together
