Lyrics you wish you wrote
 
"Last night I danced with a stranger
But she only reminded me you were the one
you left me standing in the doorway crying
In the dark land of the sun"

-Bob Dylan

"You wear your smile
like it was going out of fashion
Dress to inflame
But douse any ideas of passion
Carry your love in a trinket hanging round your throat
Always inviting, always excited
But I must not take off my coat"

-Robert Smith

"In a room with a window in the corner
I found truth"
-Ian Curtis

" I'm living in E fantasy,
My mind doesn't mean much to me,
The comedowns completed- serotonins depleted
I'm frying out with the pan,
brain rottage, Brain rottage, brain rottage!"

- Fuzzy Roses

"So I reside to bed
I keep comics and bottles stuffed by it's head
Fuck it, let the beard grow"

Mark E. Smith

And I hope to God I'm not as numb as I make out"

Now I'm not the world's most masculine man
But I know what I am
And I'm glad I'm a man
And so is Lola

"My loneliness is killing me
I must confess, I still believe
When I'm not with you I lose my mind
Give me a sign
Hit me baby one more time"

-Max Martin

Every official that comes in
cripples us leaves us maimed
Silent and tamed
and with our flesh and bones
he builds his homes

Elijah Moon 01-16-2015 11:13 AM

Came home tonight
Felt like I'd die of loneliness
Strange, you think
Popularity
Looking for a simple life
Life ain't simple
I'm tired and sick but I
Don't wanna be alone
I'd go to a party
But I don't really want to... , etc.

Elijah Moon 01-16-2015 11:29 AM

Broken hearts want broken necks
I've done some things that I want to forget but I can't
Broke my pace and ran out of time
Sometimes I'm so full of shit that it should be a crime

Elijah Moon 01-16-2015 11:35 AM

Life lies a slow suicide
Orthodox dreams and symbolic myths
From feudal serf to spender
This wonderful world of purchase power

The exploding boy 01-16-2015 03:14 PM

With the sun in your eyes
It's easy mistaking
The truth from the lies
In the love that you're making
Don't pretend it isn't so

With the sun in your eyes
It always reveals
A voluntary bondage
That always appeals
It's how you make the garden grow

But why this weakness
No-one knows
Our conscience cries its sorrow
While we sleep
But once the morning comes
Out the back door
Silently it creeps

With the sun in your eyes
Always reminding
A sense of excitement
You've no hope of finding
With the chains that bind your feet

Belonging or longing
For a few empty hours
In a stranger's bed
To chase away
A fear that's in your head

And why this weakness
No-one knows
The vacant faceless voices on the phone
Bring words that offer no
Consolation when you're all alone

So cover your ears and shade your eyes
Of thoughts conceived between the thighs

Beaten on the brow of history
A union forged in slavery
In all that's hope and decency
A hope for you and a hope for me
For every woman, child and man
To those who'll chain you if they can
The babe you're bouncing on your knee
Needs your help now can't you see

I hopped off the plane at L.A.X.
With a dream and my cardigan
Welcome to the land of fame excess (whoa),
Am I gonna fit in?

Jumped in the cab,
Here I am for the first time
Look to my right and I see the Hollywood sign
This is all so crazy
Everybody seems so famous

My tummy's turnin' and I'm feelin' kinda home sick
Too much pressure and I'm nervous,
That's when the taxi man turned on the radio
And a Jay-Z song was on
And a Jay-Z song was on
And a Jay-Z song was on

[Chorus:]
So I put my hands up
They're playing my song,
The butterflies fly away
I'm noddin' my head like yeah
Movin' my hips like yeah
I got my hands up,
They're playin' my song
I know I'm gonna be OK
Yeah, it's a party in the USA
Yeah, it's a party in the USA

Get to the club in my taxi cab
Everybody's looking at me now
Like, "Who's that chick that's rockin' kicks?
She gotta be from out of town."

So hard with my girls not around me
It's definitely not a Nashville party
'Cause all I see are stilettos
I guess I never got the memo

My tummy's turnin' and I'm feelin' kinda home sick
Too much pressure and I'm nervous
That's when the DJ dropped my favorite tune
And a Britney song was on
And a Britney song was on
And a Britney song was on

[Chorus]

Feel like hoppin' on a flight (on a flight)
Back to my hometown tonight (town tonight)
Something stops me every time (every time)
The DJ plays my song and I feel alright

[Chorus 2x]

You tiptoe for ages / and lose yourself
Flipping back pages / unbuckling belts

Especially that but also the whole of "Do You" by Spoon

The mountain wont go falling
if you're still willing to climb

But when the mountain goes falling
true riches you will find

We were born as animals
but you put suits on animals

They said that we were trash,
Well the name is Crass, not Clash.
They can stuff their punk credentials
Cause it's them that take the cash.
They won't change nothing with their fashionable talk,
All their RAR badges and their protest walk,
Thousands of white men standing in a park,
Objecting to racism's like a candle in the dark.
Black man's got his problems and his way to deal with it,
So don't fool yourself you're helping with your white liberal shit.
If you care to take a closer look at the way things really stand,
You'd see we're all just niggers to the rulers of this land.

Punk was once an answer to years of crap,
A way of saying no where we'd always said yep.
But the moment we saw a way to be free,
They invented a dividing line, street credibility.
The qualifying factors are politics and class,
Left wing macho street fighters willing to kick arse.
They said because of racism they'd come out on the street.
It was just a form of fascism for the socialist elite.
Bigotry and blindness, a marxist con,
Another clever trick to keep us all in line.
Neat little labels to keep us all apart,
To keep us all divided when the troubles start.

Pogo on a nazi, spit upon a jew,
Vicious mindless violence that offers nothing new.
Left wing violence, right wing violence, all seems much the same,
Bully boys out fighting, it's just the same old game.
Boring fucking politics that'll get us all shot,
Left wing, right wing, you can stuff the lot.
Keep your petty prejudice, I don't see the point,
ANARCHY AND FREEDOM IS WHAT I WANT.

slunken 01-16-2015 08:56 PM

rule number 1: if you're a white guy don't try to sing like a black guy. that cuts a lot of music away.

run2pee 01-16-2015 09:11 PM

Visions indeed. Fucken thanks Bob!

we don't take drugs no more
we sit around praying for money
when you are with a lover you have no control

- john giorno

toase 01-16-2015 10:28 PM

We don't need a lot of money We'll be sleeping on the beach
Keeping oceans within reach
Whatever private oceans we can conjure up for free
I will stumble htere with you and You'll be
Laughing close with with me
Try not to make a scene
Etc, whatever, I guess all I really mean
Is we're gonna be alright

toase 01-16-2015 10:31 PM

The saddest songs are the happiest
The hardest truths are the easiest
Put us both to the test
And tell me if you still need me

And I will swallow these words
And see if I can still believe

The biggest lies are the little ones
When the look in your eyes is the distant one
Angel or demon
You know that they can share the same bed

I've laid awake so long
I've got them both inside my head

...

This American dream may be poisonous
Violence is contagious
Crowded or empty
I walk these city streets alone

Whoever brought me here
Is gonna have to take me home

toase 01-16-2015 10:38 PM

And though we love to numb the pain
We come to learn that it's in vain
Pain is our mother
She makes us recognize each other
