If you should go skating
On the thin ice of modern life
Dragging behind you the silent reproach
Of a million tear-stained eyes
Don't be surprised when a crack in the ice
Appears under your feet.
You slip out of your depth and out of your mind
With your fear flowing out behind you
As you claw the thin ice.

THE WALL --
 
Salt Lake City salt lickin' biddies bogus honey stinkin' a gin
Well my daddy was hard his face was pretty scarred from kickin' ass
And playin' poker to win
'Cause I'm a bad lonely school-boy and I'm a rat
And it's too bad can't get me none a that

Aerosmith...
 
Seems like forever and a day...
If my intentions are misunderstood
Please be kind, I’ve done all I should
I won’t ask of you what I would not do
Oh, I saw the damage in you
My fortunate one, the envy of youth

Why would they tell me to please those that laugh in my face?
When all of the reasons they’ve taught us fall over themselves to give way

It’s not a question whether my heart is true
Streamlined, I had to pull through
Look for a new beginning on you
Oh I got a message for you
Up and away, it’s what I gotta do
Forgive what you have for what you might lose

What would you say if I told you that I’m to blame?
And what would you do if I had to deny your name?
Where would you go if I told you I love you and then walked away?
Who should I turn to if not for the ones you could not save?

I told you when I found you
If there were doubts you should be careful and unafraid
Now they surround you
And all that amounts to is love that you fed by perversion and pain

So if my affections are misunderstood
And you decide I’m up to no good
Don’t ask me to enjoy them just for you

Ask yourself why I would choose
To prostitute myself to live with fortune and shame?
When you should have turned to the hearts of the ones
That you would not save

I told you when I found you
All that amounts to is love that you fed by perversion and pain

--Guns N' Roses, "Prostitute"

one of my favourites...


here's my choice of lyrics...lol


Love is a burning thing
and it makes a firery ring
bound by wild desire
I fell in to a ring of fire...

I fell in to a burning ring of fire
I went down,down,down
and the flames went higher.
And it burns,burns,burns
the ring of fire
the ring of fire.

The taste of love is sweet
when hearts like our's meet
I fell for you like a child
oh, but the fire went wild..
 
Mm ba ba de
Um bum ba de
Um bu bu bum da de
Pressure pushing down on me
Pressing down on you no man ask for
Under pressure - that burns a building down
Splits a family in two
Puts people on streets
Um ba ba be
Um ba ba be
De day da
Ee day da - that's o.k.
It's the terror of knowing
What this world is about
Watching some good friends
Screaming 'Let me out'
Pray tomorrow - gets me higher
Pressure on people - people on streets
Day day de mm hm
Da da da ba ba
O.k.
Chippin' around - kick my brains around the floor
These are the days it never rains but it pours
Ee do ba be
Ee da ba ba ba
Um bo bo
Be lap
People on streets - ee da de da de
People on streets - ee da de da de da de da
It's the terror of knowing
What this world is about
Watching some good friends
Screaming 'Let me out'
Pray tomorrow - gets me higher high high
Pressure on people - people on streets
Turned away from it all like a blind man
Sat on a fence but it don't work
Keep coming up with love
but it's so slashed and torn
Why - why - why ?
Love love love love love
Insanity laughs under pressure we're cracking
Can't we give ourselves one more chance
Why can't we give love that one more chance
Why can't we give love give love give love give love
give love give love give love give love give love
'Cause love's such an old fashioned word
And love dares you to care for
The people on the edge of the night
And love dares you to change our way of
Caring about ourselves
This is our last dance
This is ourselves
Under pressure
Under pressure
Pressure
 
This is for the humble, this is for the poor
This is for the anxious to see what's in store
If you ever had a feeling things ain't going your way
Don't you worry, don't you worry no
Picture yourself in a room with the sun shining through
Exposing the smoke inside
Picture yourself in a place with a smile on your face
You'd never have to change your mind again
I bet you thought those kind of days were over
You hear a plane fly by and you wonder where it's going to
And when you fear there's nothing left remember there's always the future
One day you'll look back and be glad that you carried on

'Cause we evolve, we evolve, we evolve, we evolve
When you're sinking in quicksand, let me try to grab your hand
Yeah we evolve, we evolve, we evolve, we evolve
Try to understand we don't live up to demands
'Cause we evolve, we evolve, we evolve, we evolve
No I really don't care if the people stop and stare
Yeah we evolve, we evolve, we evolve, we evolve
We evolve

So you haven't had your fair share of opportunity
But sitting in that same chair, that ain't your destiny
You need motivation, you need a remedy
And I know how to get there, it's in a melody
I'm looking at the side of a train through the dirt and the rain
And the frost on the coldest days
One day you'll see these places you know, and see how they go
When you get drenched in the summer's rain
I bet you thought those kind of days were over
You hear a plane fly by and you wonder where it's going to
And when you fear there's nothing left remember there's always the future
One day you'll look back and be glad that you carried on

'Cause we evolve, we evolve, we evolve, we evolve
When you're sinking in quicksand, let me try to grab your hand
Yeah we evolve, we evolve, we evolve, we evolve
Try to understand we don't live up to demands
'Cause we evolve, we evolve, we evolve, we evolve
No I really don't care if the people stop and stare
Yeah we evolve, we evolve, we evolve, we evolve
We evolve

--Mouthwash, "We Evolve"
 
You don't tug on Superman's cape;
You don't spit into the wind;
You don't pull the mask off that old Lone Ranger;
And you don't mess around with The Creator.


Jim Croce...RIP...
 
I have come curiously close to the end, down
Beneath my self-indulgent pitiful hole,
Defeated, I concede and
Move closer
I may find comfort here
I may find peace within the emptiness
How pitiful

It's calling me...

And in my darkest moment, fetal and weeping
The moon tells me a secret - my confidant
As full and bright as I am
This light is not my own and
A million light reflections pass over me

Its source is bright and endless
She resuscitates the hopeless
Without her, we are lifeless satellites drifting

And as I pull my head out I am without one doubt
Don't wanna be down here feeding my narcissism.
I must crucify the ego before it's far too late
I pray the light lifts me out
Before I pine away.

So crucify the ego, before it's far too late
To leave behind this place so negative and blind and cynical,
And you will come to find that we are all one mind
Capable of all that's imagined and all conceivable.
Just let the light touch you
And let the words spill through
And let them pass right through
Bringing out our hope and reason ...
before we pine away.

"I can't believe that we would lie in our graves, wondering if we had spent our living days well"

Lie in our graves, Dave Matthews Band

always liked that quote, something to live by!
 
I don't know weather I'm alive or dreaming or dead or remembering
How can you tell what's a dream and what's real
When you can't even tell when you're awake and when you're asleep

Where am I?

I can't remember anything
Can't tell if this is true or dream
Deep down inside I feel to scream
This terrible silence stops with me

Now that the war is through with me
I'm waking up, I cannot see
That there's not much left of me
Nothing is real but pain now

Hold my breath as I wish for death
Oh please God, wake me

They kept my head and chopped off everything
Oh god, please make them hear me
They won't listen, they won't hear me
They got to wake me up I'll be like this for years
Hear me

Back in the womb it's much too real
In pumps life that I must feel
But can't look forward to reveal
Look to the time when I'll live

Fed through the tube that sticks in me
Just like a wartime novelty
Tied to machines that make me be
Cut this life off from me

Hold my breath as I wish for death
Oh please God, wake me

It's like a piece of me that keeps on living
It won't always be like this, will it?

I can't live like this!
I-I can't!
Please no
I can't! I can't!
Help me, help me, help me!
Mother where are ya?
Mommy, mother, I'm having a nightmare and I can't wake up

Now the world is gone I'm just one
Oh God help me

Hold my breath as I wish for death
Oh please God, help me

Me lying here like, like some freak in a carnival show
Here is the armless
Legless
Wonder of the twentieth century

Death has a dignity of its own
Father!
I need help
I'm in terrible trouble and I need help
Don't you remember when you were little?
How and you and Bill Harper use to string a wire between the two houses
So you could telegraph to each other
You'll remember the Morse code

Darkness
Imprisoning me
All that I see
Absolute horror
I cannot live
I cannot die
Trapped in myself
Body my holding cell

It's Morse code
For what?
S.O.S.
Help

Landmine
Has taken my sight
Taken my speech
Taken my hearing
Taken my arms
Taken my legs
Taken my soul
Left me with life in Hell

What's he saying?
Said kill me
Over and over again
Kill me
Oh god, please make them hear me
Don't you have any message for him Arthur?
He's the product of your profession
Not mine

Kill me
I'm asking you to kill me

Thank you

Save me please
Father

Each man faces death by himself
Alone
Good-bye father

Inside me I'm screaming nobody pays any attention
If I had arms, I could kill myself
If I had legs, I could run away
If I had a voice, I could talk and be some kind of company for myself
How do I know they'll kill me?
I could yell for help, but nobody'd help me
I just got to do some kind of, see how I can go on like this

S.O.S. help me
S.O.S. help me

Keep the home fires burning
While our hearts are yearning

"As tomorrow's man and a topless bee
jump over your head, remember me

mr. music man needs a string quartet
on the planet where the alphabet starts with z

energy and confidence
buzz high in your consciousness
don't get confused by an early morning rain

that you can't forget, so remember me

No more, the crap rolls out your mouth again
Haven't changed, your brain is still gelatine
Little whispers, circle around your head
Why don't you worry about yourself instead

Who are you, where ya been, where you from?
Gossip's burnin' on the tip of your tongue
You lie so much you believe yourself
Judge not, lest ye be judged yourself

Holier than thou
You are
Holier than thou
You are
You,know,not

Before you judge me take a look at you
Can't you find something better to do?
Point the finger, slow to understand
Arrogance and ignorance go hand in hand

It's not who you are, it's who you know
Other's lives are the basis of your own
Burn your bridges and build them back with wealth
Judge not, lest ye be judged yourself

Metallica - Holier than thou - Black Album
 
Early man walked away as modern man took control.
Their minds weren't all the same, to conquer was his big goal,
So he built his great empire and slaughtered his own kind,
Then he died a confused man, killed himself with his own mind.
Go! We're only gonna die from our own arrogance.

We're Only Gonna Die From Our Own Arrogance - Bad Religion
 
Together on the sand,
we walked hand in hand
On the beachfront, she smiled at me
As she tightly held my hand
I had my finger up her...
Country music played on the radio
So I turned it off and we walked down
To the water, as she grabbed on to my honker
A wave swept us away

i don't wanna go outside
i like to be where i can hide
friends are not important to me
a sheltered life is what i lead

sit home and rot(rot)
sit home and rot(rot)
sit home and rot (rot)
sit home

girls well they're ok
but i'd rather watch tv anyway
sit at home and play inside
smoke my herb like rastafari

sit home and rot(rot)
sit home and rot(rot)
sit home and rot (rot)
sit home

i dont wanna go and play
at home is where i'd rather stay
watching movies all the time
drinking all this beer and wine

sit home and rot(rot)
sit home and rot(rot)
sit home and rot (rot)
sit home

girls well theyre ok
but i'd rather watch tv anyway
sit at home and play inside
smoke my herb like rastifi

sit home and rot(rot)
sit home and rot(rot)
sit home and rot (rot)
sit home

sit home annnnd rot

There are places I remember
All my life though some have changed
Some forever, not for better
Some have gone and some remain

All these places have their moments
With lovers and friends I still can recall
Some are dead and some are living
In my life I've loved them all

But of all these friends and lovers
There is no one compares with you
And these memories lose their meaning
When I think of love as something new

Though I know I'll never lose affection
For people and things that went before
I know I'll often stop and think about them
In my life I love you more

Though I remember I'll never lose affection
For people and things that went before
I know I'll often stop and think about them
In my life I'll love you more

In my life I'll love you more

There are places I remember
All my life though some have changed
Some forever, not for better
Some have gone and some remain

All these places have their moments
With lovers and friends I still can recall
Some are dead and some are living
In my life I've loved them all

But of all these friends and lovers
There is no one compares with you
And these memories lose their meaning
When I think of love as something new

Though I know I'll never lose affection
For people and things that went before
I know I'll often stop and think about them
In my life I love you more

Though I remember I'll never lose affection
For people and things that went before
I know I�ll often stop and think about them
In my life I�ll love you more

In my life I'll love you more
 
I am the one, Orgasmatron, the outstretched grasping hand
My image is of agony, my servants rape the land
Obsequious and arrogant, clandestine and vain
Two thousand years of misery, of torture in my name
Hypocrisy made paramount, paranoia the law
My name is called religion, sadistic, sacred whore.

I twist the truth, I rule the world, my crown is called deceit
I am the emperor of lies, you grovel at my feet
I rob you and I slaughter you, your downfall is my gain
And still you play the sycophant and revel in you pain
And all my promises are lies, all my love is hate
I am the politician, and I decide your fate

I march before a martyred world, an army for the fight
I speak of great heroic days, of victory and might
I hold a banner drenched in blood, I urge you to be brave
I lead you to your destiny, I lead you to your grave
Your bones will build my palaces, your eyes will stud my crown
For I am Mars, the god of war, and I will cut you down.
