Return Of The Mack




Mark Morrison


Oh, oo-o-oh, come on, ooh, yeah
Well I tried to tell you so (yes, I did)
But I guess you didn't know, as I said the story goes
Baby, now I got the flow
'Cos I knew it from the start
Baby, when you broke my heart
That I had to come again, and show you that I'm real

(You lied to me) all those times I said that I love you
(You lied to me) yes, I tried, yes, I tried
(You lied to me) even though you know I'd die for you
(You lied to me) yes, I cried, yes, I cried

1-(Return of the Mack) it is
(Return of the Mack) come on
(Return of the Mack) oh my God
(You know that I'll be back) here I am
(Return of the Mack) once again
(Return of the Mack) pump up the world
(Return of the Mack) watch my flow
(You know that I'll be back) here I go

So I'm back up in the game
Running things to keep my swing
Letting all the people know
That I'm back to run the show
'Cos what you did, you know, was wrong
And all the nasty things you've done
So, baby, listen carefully
While I sing my come-back song

2-(You lied to me) 'cos she said she'd never turn on me
(You lied to me) but you did, but you do
(You lied to me) all these pains you said I'd never feel
(You lied to me) but I do, but I do, do, do

(Return of the Mack) here it is
(Return of the Mack) hold on
(Return of the Mack) don't you know
(You know that I'll be back) here I go
(Return of the Mack) oh little girl
(Return of the Mack) wants my pearl
(Return of the Mack) up and down
(You know that I'll be back) round and round
(rpt 2, 1)

(You know that I'll be back) don't you know

(Return of the Mack) here it is
(Return of the Mack) hold on
(Return of the Mack) be strong
(You know that I'll be back) here I go
(Return of the Mack) my little girl
(Return of the Mack) wants my pearl
(Return of the Mack) up and down
(You know that I'll be back) round and round

Storybook And Rhyme - Michale Graves

Bye, bye, bye
Handsome handshakes, poison wine
Blue eyed devil, mace and lye
Storybook and rhyme

My, my, my
Razor face, hot night, divine
Lebel edge and dead straight line
Storybook and rhyme

Oh my, my
Endless pages
Tales of rage
Loving sonnets
Long lost days
Scenes of yesterday

Someone's screaming
I must still be dreaming
The corpses are all hanging
From the ceiling

Hi, hi, hi
Baby brace, fake face and crime
Heavy metal, mace and lye
Storybook and rhyme

Die, die, die
Rigor mortis, moonlit night
Squelching sirens, candlelight
Storybook and rhyme

Someone's screaming
I must still be dreaming
The corpses are all hanging
From the ceiling

I ♥ me some Graves.

See Me, Feel Me

See Me
Feel Me
Touch Me
Heal Me

See Me
Feel Me
Touch Me
Heal Me

Listning to you, I get the music
Gazing at you, I get the heat
Following you, I climb the mountain
I get excitement at your feet

Right behind you, I see the millions
On you, I see the glory
From you, I get opinions
From you, I get the story

Listning to you, I get the music
Gazing at you, I get the heat
Following you, I climb the mountain
I get excitement at your feet

Right behind you, I see the millions
On you, I see the glory
From you, I get opinions
From you, I get the story

It's a fun one to sing along to huh.

Skylarking





Skylarking
Skylarking, skylarking
That's what youth do today
Skylarking, skylarking
Before they stand up firm on their feet

Get a little work, a likkle work
And earn their bread honestly

Beggin' you a five cent, sir
Beggin' you a ten cent, sir
Cannot help, no, cannot help

So if you all keep on doing what you all are doing
You will end up, up up in jail...

Pinball Wizard

Ever since I was a young boy,
I've played the silver ball.
From Soho down to Brighton
I must have played them all.
but I ain't seen nothing like him
In any amusement hall.
That deaf, dumb and blind kid
Sure plays a mean pinball!

He stands like a statue,
Becomes part of the machine.
Feeling all the bumpers
Always playing clean.
plays by intuition,
The digit counters fall
That deaf, dumb and blind kid
Sure plays a mean pinball!

He's a pinball wizard
There has to be a twist.
A pin ball wizard,
S'got such a supple wrist.

How do you think he does it?
I don't know!
What makes him so good?

ain't got no distractions
Can't hear no buzzers and bells,
Don't see no lights a flashin'
Plays by sense of smell.
Always gets a replay,
Never seen him fall,
That deaf, dumb and blind kid
Sure plays a mean pinball.

I thought I was
The Bally table king.
But I just handed
My pinball crown to him.

Even on my favorite table
He can beat my best.
His disciples lead him in
And he just does the rest.
He's got crazy flipper fingers
Never seen him fall.
That deaf, dumb and blind kid
Sure plays a mean pinball!

Sun Doesn't Rise
by: Mushroomhead \m/ >_< \m/


some kind of evidence some kind of reason
why i cant find a way to begin my life
somewhere in this dying day if i can find a way for my escape
i find it hard to concentrate with all my past mistakes
to begin my life
(i cant feel my faith cant recall my crime
i think sealed my fate along the way i may have lost my mind
i guess we are all damaged in our own way alone in our own way
distant headlights desolate highway)x2

(sun doesnt rise at all who knows how far ill fall)x2

with eyes wide open
cant recall my crime i think i sealed my fate
i can watch my world evolve
loved in our own way
think i sealed my fate
nothing left to die for
cant recall my crime i think i sealed my fate
thoughts inside can make me crawl
think i sealed my fate
make me crawl down to my knees
break me down untill i question me
darkness cant destroy my drive

sun doesnt rise at all who knows how far ill fall
sun doesnt rise at all welcome my downfall

sun doesent rise at allllllll

somewhere in this dying day as i plan my great escape
i find it hard to concentrate while u remain control
i fold falter empty alter all i gave to pray it makes me whole
i think the breaks around the corner there is an error in my soul

i cant feel my fate cant recall my crime
i think i sealed my fate along the way
i may have lost my mind i guess we are all
dameged in our own way alone in our own way
distant headlights desolate highway

(sun doesnt rise at all who knows how far ill fall)
i cant feel my fate
cant recall my crime
dameged in our own way
alone in our own way
distant headlights desolate highway

Listening to some ClassicCountry .....

"It Wasn't God Who Made Honky Tonk Angels" by Kitty Wells

As I sit here tonight the jukebox playing
A tune about the WILD SIDE OF LIFE
As I listen to the words you are saying
It brings mem'ries when I was a trusting wife.

It wasn't God who made honky tonk angels
As you said in the words of your song
Too many times married men think they're still single
That has caused many a good girl to go wrong.

It's a shame that all the blame is on us women
It's not true that only you men feel the same
From the start most every heart that's ever broken
Was because there always was a man to blame.

"Heroes"

I
I wish you could swim
Like the dolphins
Like dolphins can swim
Though nothing
Nothing will keep us together
We can beat them
For ever and ever
Oh we can be Heroes
Just for one day

I
I will be king
And you
You will be queen
Though nothing
Will drive them away
We can be Heroes
Just for one day
We can be us
Just for one day

I
I can remember
Standing
By the wall
And the guns
Shot above our heads
And we kissed
As though nothing could fall
And the shame
Was on the other side
Oh we can beat them
For ever and ever
Then we can be Heroes
Just for one day

We can be Heroes
We can be Heroes
We can be Heroes
Just for one day

By David Bowie

That was the other song that played at my wedding while we were signing the register. My ex liked David Bowie.
And we never did get congradulated or a wedding gift from her parents or family at all hey. They only came to protest it and we didnt even know if they were coming or not until the day. They didnt RSVP, or even bring a camera.
But it was a pretty cool day anyway.

A PERFECT CIRCLE LYRICS

"Imagine"

Imagine there's no heaven,
It's easy if you try,
No hell below us,
Above us only sky,
Imagine all the people
living for today...

Imagine there's no countries,
It isnt hard to do,
Nothing to kill or die for,
No religion too,
Imagine all the people
living life in peace...

You may say Im a dreamer,
but Im not the only one,
I hope some day you'll join us,
And the world will live as one.

(Imagine all the people sharing all the world)

Imagine no possesions,
I wonder if you can,
No need for greed or hunger,
A brotherhood of man,
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world...

You may say Im a dreamer,
but Im not the only one,
I hope some day you'll join us,
And the world will live as one.

"Fully Alive" by Flyleaf (Album-Flyleaf)

Telling Layla's story spoken
'Bout how all her bones are broken
Hammers fall on all the pieces
Two months in the cover creases

Fully alive
More than most
Ready to smile and love life
Fully alive and she knows
How to believe in futures

All my complaints shrink to nothing
I'm ashamed of all my somethings
She's glad for one day of comfort
Only because she has suffered

Fully alive
More than most
Ready to smile and love life
Fully alive and she knows
How to believe in futures

Fully alive
More than most
Ready to smile and love life
Fully alive and she knows
How to believe in futures

Fully alive
More than most
Ready to smile and love life
Fully alive and she knows
How to believe in futures

Here's one more I like

"Lost" by Red (Album-End of Silence)

Can I be dreaming once again?
I'm reaching helpless I descend
You lead me deeper through this maze
I'm not afraid, I'm

(Chorus)
Lost in you
Everywhere I run
Everywhere I turn
I'm finding something new
Lost in you
Something I can't fight
I could not escape
I could spend my life
Lost in you

Your whispers fill these empty halls
I'm searching for you as you call
I'm racing, chasing after you
I need you more I'm

(Chorus)

I could never be the same
It's something that I
Never could erase
I could never look away
I've lost myself
In you
It's all over now
Lost in you
Everywhere I run
Lost in you
Everywhere I run
Lost in you
Lost in you

"I Will Always Love You" by Dolly Parton

If I should stay
I would only be in your way
So I'll go, but I know
I'll think of you each step of the way
And I will always love you
I will always love you
Bittersweet memories
That's all I am taking with me
Good-bye, please don't cry
We both know that I'm not what you need
I will always love you
I will always love you
I hope life will treat you kind
And I hope that you have all
That you ever dreamed of
And I wish you joy and happiness
But above all of this, I wish you love
And I will always love you
I will always love you
I will always love you

Bob Marley

Iron Lion Zion


I am on the rock and then I check a stock
I have to run like a fugitive to save the life I live
I'm gonna be Iron like a Lion in Zion (repeat)

See they want to be the star
So they fighting tribal war
And they saying Iron like a Lion in Zion
Iron like a Lion in Zion,
Iron Lion Zion

I'm on the rock, (running and you running)
I take a stock, (running like a fugitive)
I had to run like a fugitive just to save the life I live
I'm gonna be Iron like a Lion in Zion (repeat)

Through Glass~Stone Sour

I'm looking at you through the glass
Don't know how much time has passed
Oh God it feels like forever
But no one ever tells you that forever feels like home
Sitting all alone inside your head

'Cause I'm looking at you through the glass
Don't know how much time has passed
All I know is that it feels like forever
But no one ever tells you that forever feels like home
Sitting all alone inside your head

How do you feel, that is the question
But I forget you don't expect an easy answer
When something like a soul becomes initialized
And folded up like paper dolls and little notes
You can't expect a bit of hope
So while you're outside looking in
Describing what you see
Remember what you're staring at is me

'Cause I'm looking at you through the glass
Don't know how much time has passed
All I know is that it feels like forever
No one ever tells you that forever feels like home
Sitting all alone inside your head

How much is real, so much to question
An epidemic of the mannequins
Contaminating everything
We thought came from the heart
But never did right from the start
Just listen to the noises
(Null and void instead of voices)
Before you tell yourself
It's just a different scene
Remembering it's just different from what you've seen

I'm looking at you through the glass
Don't know how much time has passed
All I know is that it feels like forever
When no one ever tells you that forever feels like home
Sitting all alone inside your head

'Cause I'm looking at you through the glass
Don't know how much time has passed
And all I know is that it feels like forever
When no one ever tells you that forever feelsike home
Sitting all alone inside your head

Chorus:

And it's the stars
The stars that shine for you
And it's the stars
The stars that lie to you
And it's the stars
The stars that shine for you
And it's the stars
The stars that lie to you

I'm looking at you through the glass
Don't know how much time has passed
Oh God it feels like forever
But no one ever tells you that forever feels like home
Sitting all alone inside your head

'Cause I'm looking at you through the glass
Don't know how much time has passed
All I know it feels like forever
But no one ever tells you that forever feels like home
Sitting all alone inside your head

Chorus:

And it's the stars
The stars that shine for you
And it's the stars
The stars that lie to you
And it's the stars
The stars that shine for you
And it's the stars
The stars that lie to you

And it's the stars...
And it's the stars that lie

Too Experienced



She doesnt want me... around
She's got something to hide
I think she want's a clown, someone to take for a ride... What I
keep telling her,

Chorus:
Im too experienced to be taken for a stroll... too
experienced for someone to rock and roll, Im too experienced to be taken
for a ride, and I know its not my foolish pride...

She hates the site... of me
because I turned her offer down
She's always saying we were meant to be
somehow she thought Id be her clown
And this is what I sing:

Chorus:
Im too experienced to be taken for a
stroll...to experienced for someone to rock and roll, Im too
experienced to be taken for a ride, and I know it's not my foolish pride

She doesnt want me around
she got's something to hide, I think she wants a clown, someone to take
for a ride, this is what I sing

(back to chorus)

"Love Is Blue" by Paul Mauriat

Blue, blue, my world is blue
Blue is my world now I'm without you
Gray, gray, my life is gray
Cold is my heart since you went away

Red, red, my eyes are red
Crying for you alone in my bed
Green, green, my jealous heart
I doubted you and now we're apart

When we met how the bright sun shone
Then love died, now the rainbow is gone

Black, black, the nights I've known
Longing for you so lost and alone
Gone, gone, the love we knew
Blue is my world now I'm without you

When we met how the bright sun shone
Then love died, now the rainbow is gone

Black, black, the nights I've known
Longing for you so lost and alone
Blue, blue, my world is blue
Blue is my world now I'm without you

Glynne, I like your taste in music.

This song has been haunting me lately.

Spade, by Marilyn Manson

The beauty spot was borrowed and
Now my sweet knife rusts tomorrow .
I'm a confession that is waiting to be heard.
Burn your empty rain down on me
Whisper your deathbeat so softly
We bend our knees
At the altar of my ego

You drained my heart
And made a spade
But there's still traces of me
in your veins

All my lilies' mouths are open
Like they're begging for dope
And hoping
Their bitter petal chant,
"We can kick , you won't be back."
I'm a diamond that is tired
Of all the faces I've acquired
We must secure the shadow
Ere the substance fades

You drained my heart
And made a spade
But there's still traces of me
in your veins

You drained my heart
And made a spade
But there's still traces of me
in your veins

And we said 'til we die
And we said 'til we die

The Temple Of The King

One day, in the year of the fox
Came a time remembered well,
When the strong young man of the rising sun
Heard the tolling of the great black bell.
One day in the year of the fox,
When the bell began to ring,
It meant the time had come for one to go
To the temple of the king.

There in the middle of the circle he stands,
Searching, seeking.
With just one touch of his trembling hand,
The answer will be found.
Daylight waits while the old man sings,
Heaven help me!
And then like the rush of a thousand wings,
It shines upon the one.
And the day has just begun.

One day in the year of the fox
Came a time remembered well,
When the strong young man of the rising sun
Heard the tolling of the great black bell.
One day in the year of the fox,
When the bell began to sing
It meant the time had come for the one to go
To the temple of the king.

There in the middle of the people he stands,
Seeing, feeling.
With just a wave of the strong right hand, hes gone
To the temple of the king.

Far from the circle, at the edge of the world,
Hes hoping, wondering.
Thinking back on the stories hes heard of
What hes going to see.
There, in the middle of a circle it lies.
Heaven help me!
Then all could see by the shine in his eyes
The answer had been found.

Back with the people in the circle he stands,
Giving, feeling.
With just one touch of a strong right hand, they know
Of the temple and the king.

Rastafari Is


Rastafari Is
Lords of lords and savior
(Chorus)

He's the mighty
Mighty one
Thunderable
Thunderable one
Chorus

He's the omnipotent
Omnipotent one
Magnificent, super
Magnificent one
Chorus

You better worship
Worship him
You better praise,
Praise him

You Better You Bet

You better you better you bet
You better you better you bet
You better you better you bet
You better you better you bet

I call you on the telephone my
voice too rough with cigarettes.
I sometimes feel I should just go home
but I'm dealing with a memory that never forgets

I love to hear you say my name
especially when you say yes
I got your body right now on my mind
but I drunk myself blind to the sound of old T-Rex
To the sound of old T-Rex and Who's Next

Chorus:
When I say I love you you say you better
You better you better you bet
When I say I need you you say you better
You better you better you bet
You better bet your life
Or love will cut you like a knife

I want those feeble minded axes overthrown
I'm not into your passport picture I just like your nose
You welcome me with open arms and open legs
I know only fools have needs but this one never begs

I don't really mind how much you love me
Ooh, a little is alright
When you say
come over and spend the night
Tonight
Tonight

Chorus: (as above)

I lay on the bed with you
We could make some book of records
Your dog keeps licking my nose
And chewing up all those letters
Saying "you better"

You better bet your life

You better love me, all the time now
You better shove me back into line now
You better love me, all the time now
You better shove me back into line now.

I showed up late one night
with a neon light for a visa
But knowing I'm so eager to fight
can't make letting me in any easier

I know I been wearing crazy clothes
and I look pretty crappy sometime
But my body feels so good
and I still sing a razor line everytime.

And when it comes to all night living
I know what I'm giving
I've got it all down to a tee
And it's free.

When I say I love you you say you better
You better you better you bet
When I say I need you you say you better
You better you better you bet
When I say I love you you say you better
You better you better you bet
When I say I need you you scream you better
You better you better you bet

You better bet your life
Or love will cut you just like a knife

Khe San by Cold Chisel


I left my heart to the sappers round Khe Sanh
And my soul was sold with my cigarettes to the blackmarket man
I've had the Vietnam cold turkey
From the ocean to the Silver City
And it's only other vets could understand

About the long forgotten dockside guarantees
How there were no V-dayheroes in 1973
How we sailed into Sydney Harbour
Saw an old friend but couldn't kiss her
She was lined, and I was home to the lucky land

And she was like so many more from that time on
Their lives were all so empty, till they found their chosen one
And their legs were often open
But their minds were always closed
And their hearts were held in fast suburban chains
And the legal pads were yellow, hours long, paypacket lean
And the telex writers clattered where the gunships once had been
But the car parks made me jumpy
And I never stopped the dreams
Or the growing need for speed and novacaine

So I worked across the country end to end
Tried to find a place to settle down, where my mixed up life could mend
Held a job on an oil-rig
Flying choppers when I could
But the nightlife nearly drove me round the bend

And I've travelled round the world from year to year
And each one found me aimless, one more year the more for wear
And I've been back to South East Asia
But the answer sure ain't there
But I'm drifting north, to check things out again

You know the last plane out of Sydney's almost gone
Only seven flying hours, and I'll be landing in Hong Kong
There ain't nothing like the kisses
From a jaded Chinese princess
I'm gonna hit some Hong Kong mattress all night long

Well the last plane out of Sydney's almost gone
Yeah the last plane out of Sydney's almost gone
And it's really got me worried
I'm goin' nowhere and I'm in a hurry
And the last plane out of Sydney's almost gone

Untitled

should i know all we're missing
what's to stop what they're missing
to feel love, to be in love
all around

anyone can hold a promise
not everyone can feel honored
to be in love, to feel love
all around

turn me on, hear me speak
let me be what i need
you're enough for me

many times while you sleep
i'm dreaming of what to keep
to know your wish, hold it true
to slay the things that trouble you

turn me on, out of reach
listen here, feel me
just believe, just believe
you'll see

to feel love, to be in love
all around

hold the truth if you want it
if you don't, i won't flaunt it
to feel love, to be in love
all around

when you're young you can promise
anything that you wanted
to be in love, to feel love all around

turn me on, let me speak
from my heart, i receive
plain happiness, just happiness
you and me

to feel love, to be in love
all around
to be in love, to feel love
all around
to feel love, to be in love
all around
to be in love, to feel love
around

i know your wish, i hold it true
(feel love around)
to hide the things that trouble you
(feel love around)
turn me on out of reach
(feel love around)
let me speak all my peace
(feel love around)
just believe what you keep
(feel love around)
you'll never need to hurry me
(feel love around)

to be in love, to feel love
all around
to feel love, to be in love
all around
to be in love, to feel love
all around
to feel love, to be in love
all around
to be in love, to feel love
all around

i like the lyrics in Van-Hallen, eruption.



if you've heard the song you get the joke

"we're just 2 lost souls swimming in a fish bowl, year after year... "

CHEVELLE LYRICS

"Send The Pain Below"

I liked having hurt,
So send the pain below where I need it,
You used to beg me to take care of things,
And smile at the thought of me failing.

But long before, having hurt,
I'd send the pain below,
I'd send the pain below.

Much like suffocating,
Much like suffocating,
Much like suffocating,
(I'd send the pain below...)
Much like suffocating,
(I'd send the pain below...)

You used to run me away,
All while laughing.
Then cry about that fact,
'til I returned.

But long before, having hurt,
I'd send the pain below,
I'd send the pain below.

Much like suffocating,
Much like suffocating,
Much like suffocating,
(I'd send the pain below...)
Much like suffocating,
(I'd send the pain below...)
Much like suffocating.

I can't feel my chest,
Need more, drop down,
Closing in.

I can't feel my chest,
Drop down.

I liked, having hurt.
So send the pain below,
So send the pain below,
(Much like suffocating) [I liked]
So send the pain below,
(Much like suffocating) [Having hurt]
So send the pain below,
(Much like suffocating)
So send the pain below,
(Much like suffocating)
So send the pain below.

It Gets Better

This old world can be cruel sometimes
When you're looking for answers
You can't seem to find
No one understands what you're going through

Oh I know it can get lonely out there
When you feel like nobody cares
Well you look around thinking
If they only knew
Well I do

Chorus: I've felt the chill of this world cut down to the bone
I've walked many a mile down this road on my own
I've been through hell on my knees
Come face to face with the devil
And I know that it's hard to believe
But it gets better

Time is a healer but we can't see how
When you're caught in the moment
And the hurting is now
We don't wanna see that maybe somethings
Weren't meant to figure out

Repeat chorus

This old world can be cruel sometimes
When you're looking for answers
Well just keep in mind
No you're not alone
We're all trying to find our way through this life

Jo Dee Messina

10 YEARS LYRICS

"Through The Iris"

Cherish
Two circular hues of blue with a gray shade
So captivating
More than you know

False perceptions
That brought forth these questions of
Truth, love and hope
Now that you're injuring
I carry you with me just
Please hold on

Disappear and dissolve
A weakening wall
Will one day fall
It's wise to sever our loss
I redefine pulse
Through your iris

Love's not all lost
But it's nailed to my cross
And crucified all that I've held on
To be awaiting
Anticipating a touch such as yours

False affection
A spawn of neglection
A love, lust, hoax
Please understand me
That now where you're standing
Is closer then I'd hoped

Disappear and dissolve
A weakening wall
Will one day fall
It's wise to sever our loss
I redefine pulse
Through your iris

Your Iris
Your Iris

Disappear and dissolve
A weakening wall
Will one day fall
It's wise to sever our loss
I redefine pulse
Through your iris

Disappear and dissolve
A weakening wall
Will one day fall
It's wise to sever our loss
I redefine pulse
A new iris

John Lennon's 'Imagine' struck my heart at a very young age.

Many Rivers to Cross


Many rivers to cross
But I can't seem to find my way over
Wandering I am lost
As I travel along the white cliffs of dover

Many rivers to cross
And it's only my will that keeps me alive
I've been kicked, washed up for years
And I merely survive because of my pride

And this lonliness won't leave me alone
It's such a drag to be on your own
My woman left me and she didn't say why
Well, I guess I'll have to cry

Many rivers to cross
But just where to begin I'm playing for time
There have been times I find myself
Thinking of committing some dreadful crime

Yes I've got many rivers to cross
But I can't seem to find my way over
Wandering I am lost
As I travel along the white cliffs of Dover

Yes I've got many rivers to cross
And I merely survive because of my will ....

Love Is A Rose

Love is a rose
but you better not pick it
It only grows when it's on the vine.
A handful of thorns and
you'll know you've missed it
You lose your love
when you say the word "mine".

I wanna see what's never been seen,
I wanna live that age old dream.
Come on, lads, we can go together
Let's take the best right now,
Take the best right now.

I wanna go to an old hoe-down
Long ago in a western town.
Pick me up cause my feet are draggin'
Give me a lift and I'll hay your wagon.

Love is a rose
but you better not pick it
It only grows when it's on the vine.
A handful of thorns and
you'll know you've missed it
You lose your love
when you say the word "mine".
Mine, mine.

Love is a rose, love is a rose
Love is a rose, love is a rose
Love is a rose, love is a rose
Love is a rose, love is a rose

By Neil Young.

"Love Hurts" by Joan Jett

Love hurts, love scars, love wounds and mars
Any heart not tough nor strong enough
To take a lot of pain, take a lot of pain
Love is like a cloud holds a lot of rain
Love hurts, love hurts
I may be slow, but even so
I know a thing or two, I've learned from you
I've really learned a lot, really learned a lot
Love is like a flame, burns you when it's hot
Love hurts, love hurts
Some fools rave of happiness, blissfullness, togetherness
Some fools fool themselves I guess
But they're not fooling me
I know it isn't true, know it isn't true
Love is just a lie, made to make you blue
Love hurts, love hurts

'Love is like a flame, burns you when it's hot' .. awesome lyric!

Not sure if this one has been posted yet, and if it has... here it is again.
Tool - H.
What's coming through is alive.
What's holding up is a mirror.
What's singing songs is a snake,
Looking to turn my .... to wine.

They're both totally void of hate,
killing me just the same.

The snake behind me hisses
What my damage could have...
My blood before me begs me
Open up my heart again.

And I feel this coming over like a storm again, now..
Considerately.

Venomous voice, tempts me,
Drains me, bleeds me,
Leaves me cracked and empty.
Drags me down like some sweet gravity.

The snake behind me hisses
What my damage could have been.
My blood before me begs me
Open up my heart again.

And I feel this coming over like a storm again now (x2)

I am too connected to..
Slip away, to fade away.
Days away I still feel you
Touching me, changing me,
And considerately killing me.

Without the skin here,
Beneath the storm,
Under these tears now
The walls came down.

As the snake is drowned and
As I look in his eyes,
My fear begins to fade

Recalling all of those times.
I could have cried then.
I should have cried then.

As the walls come down and
As I look in your eyes
My fear begins to fade
Recalling all of the times
I have died
and will die.
It's all right.

I don't mind.(x3)

I am too connected to you to
Slip away, to fade away.
Days away I still feel you
Touching me, changing me,
And considerately killing me.

Iii. praying for the end of time

Boy:

I couldn't take it any longer
Lord I was crazed
And when the feeling came upon me
Like a tidal wave
I started swearing to my God and on my mother's grave
That I would love you to the end of time
I swore that I would love you to the end of time!

So now I'm praying for the end of time
To hurry up and arrive
Cause if I gotta spend another minute with you
I don't think that I can really survive
I'll never break my promise or forget my vow
But God only knows what I can do right now
I'm praying for the end of time
It's all that I can do
Praying for the end of time, so I can end my time
With you!!!

Barracuda

So, this ain't the end - I saw you again today
I had to turn my heart away
smile like the sun - kisses for ev--eryone
And tails - it never fails!

You lying so low in the weeds
I bet you gonna ambush me
You'd have me down, down, down, down on my knees
Now, wouldn't you, Barracuda? Oh-oh-ohh

Back over time we were all trying for free
You met the porpoise and me, uh huh
No right no wrong, selling a song -
A name whisper game.

And if the real thing don't do the trick
You better make up something quick
You’re gonna burn, burn, burn, burn, burn it to the wick
Ooh, Barracuda! Oh-oh-ohh…yeah

"Sell me, sell you," the porpoise said
Dive down deep down save my head
You...I think that you got the blues, too.

All that night and all the next, swam without looking back
Made for the western pools - silly, silly fools!

The real thing don't do the trick, no
You better make up something quick
You’re gonna burn, burn, burn, burn, burn it to the wick
Ohhh, Barra…barracuda! Yeah

Ooohhhhhh-ah!

By Heart.

Artist: Killswitch Engage
Song: Vide Infra


I have opened my eyes to see the world that surrounds me daily
And I refuse to be lead by the majority
Can't compromise I and I

To pass judgement, judgement will passed upon you

Through understanding of our differences
We will find respect for one another
Cause we are all all flesh and blood

Noone is placed higher than another
No matter race or creed or gender
We must teach forgiveness and compassion
For all life

I'm not afraid to speak my mind
No matter the consequences,
stay true to yourself

Through the humble eyes of a child
We will realise true equality.

They cannot take me from me
They cannot take you from you
They cannot take I from I



Artist: Killswitch Engage
Song: This Fire Burns


Yeah!

All I've ever wanted
Was destiny to be fullfilled
It is in my hands
I must not fail
I must not fail

Even through the darkest days
This fire burns, always
This fire burns, always

This is the proving ground
Misery begins to rise
Turn away from yesterday
Tomorrow's in my eyes

Nevermore to be held down... by the waves against me
Nevermore to be cast aside... this day is mine

Even through the darkest days
This fire burns, always
This fire burns... always

I will not be denied... this final hour
I will not be denied... this day, is mine
This passion inside me is burning (is burning)
This passion inside me is burning (is burning)

Even through the darkest days
This fire burns, always
This fire burns, always





Beautiful songs!

"Bringin' On The Heartbreak" by Def Leppard ( Oldie but a goodie)

Gypsy, sittin' lookin' pretty
The broken rose with laughin' eyes
You're a mystery, always runnin' wild
Like a child without a home
You're always searching, searching for a feeling
That it's easy come and easy go

Oh I'm sorry but it's true
You're bringin' on the heartbreak
Takin' all the best of me
Oh can't you see?
You got the best of me
Whoah can't you see?

You're bringin' on the heartbreak
Bringin' on the heartache
You're bringin' on the heartbreak
Bringin' on the heartache
Can't you see?

Oh whoah
You're such a secret, misty eyed and shady
Lady how you hold the key
Oh you're like a candle, your flame slowly fadin'
Burnin' out and burnin' me

Can't you see?
Just try and say to you

You're bringin' on the heartache
Takin' all the best of me
Oh can't you see?
You got the best of me
Whoah can't you see?

You're bringin' on the heartbreak
Bringin' on the heartache
You're bringin' on the heartbreak
Bringin' on the heartache

Can't you see?
Can't you see?
No no no
You got the best of me
Oh can't you see?
You got the best of me
Whoah can't you see?

You're bringin' on the heartbreak
Bringin' on the heartache
You're bringin' on the heartbreak
Bringin' on the heartache
You're bringin' on the heartbreak
Bringin' on the heartache
You're bringin' on the heartbreak

"Whispers In The Dark" by Skillet

Despite the lies that you're making
Your love is mine for the taking
My love is
Just waiting
To turn your tears to roses

I will be the one that's gonna hold you
I will be the one that you run to
My love is
A burning, consuming fire

[Chorus:]
No
You'll never be alone
When darkness comes I'll light the night with stars
Hear my whispers in the dark
No
You'll never be alone
When darkness comes you know I'm never far
Hear my whispers in the dark

You feel so lonely and ragged
You lay here broken and naked
My love is
Just waiting
To clothe you in crimson roses

I will be the one that's gonna find you
I will be the one that's gonna guide you
My love is
A burning, consuming fire

"The Way You Love Me" by Faith Hill

If I could grant
You one wish
I'd wish you could see the way you kiss
Ooh, I love watching you baby
When you're driving me crazy
Ooh, I love the way you
Love the way you love me
There's nowhere else I'd rather be
Ooh, to feel the way I
Feel with your arms around me
I only wish that you could see
The way you love me
The way you love me
It's not right
It's not fair
What you're missing over there
Someday I'll find a way to show you
Just how lucky I am to know you
You're the millionth reason why
There's love reflecting in my eyes
Ooh, the way you love me
The way you love me

Lucky Dube

God Bless The Women



In the middle of the night I heard her pray so bitterly
And so softly yeah...
She prayed for her children
She prayed for their education,
Then she prayed for the man
That left her with her children.
We, praise heroes everyday
But there are those that we forget To praise
The women of this world.
They don't run from anything
They stand and fight for what's right

(Chorus)

Oh oh oh...
God bless the women
Even when times are so hard
They are so cool, calm and collected.
They don't run from anything,
They stand and fight
For what is right

They do not run from responsibilities
They stand and fight for what Is right

Chorus till fade...

Burning Bridges - Kittie

Hell above
Your star is below

There's no comprehension
There's no voice of reason here

Fairy tales dividing
Broken wings unfold
Before you

Take a look at what you've become

[chorus]
Hell above
Your star is below
All I see
Covered in dirt
Hell above
Your star is below
All hope dies
Burning Bridges

I'll take the truth before trust
When the world comes crashing down

Embrace the pain
In a world of lies

(YOW!)

I'll take the truth before trust
Flight betrayed you
Clipped your own

Take a look at what you've become

One truth for you

Real Good Looking Boy

When I think back to the
first time in my childhood
When I saw that face
I thought right then,
'That's a real good looking boy'

I saw myself in the mirror
in profile
for the first time
I thought,
'Hey! That's a real good looking boy'

And I felt then
that I moved
With all those lucky f*cks and angels
High in the theatre
In the sky

So I ran to my mother
I said,
'Mom - take a look at me
Have you ever seen a teen
Fly so high?'

That's a real good looking boy
That's a real good looking boy

She said,
'Son, well, you know,
you're an ugly boy.
You don't really look like him

In this long line
There's been some
real strange genes
You've got 'em all
You've got 'em all
With some extras thrown in'

That's a real good looking boy
That's a real good looking boy
That's a real good looking boy
That's a real good looking boy

Wise men say
Only fools, only fools rush in
But I - I can't help
Falling in love, in love with you


Now I'm here with you little darling
And you say, 'You're beautiful as you are'
And I've managed somehow to survive

You arrived in my life like a fragrance and
you help me find a little laugh
Now I Know our so-called beauty lies

God gave him a face
Then he gave me something above
God gave me a grace
Man, he gave me your sweet, sweet, sweet love

You make me feel like I'm a real good looking boy
I feel I'm a real good looking boy
That's a real good looking boy
That's a real good looking boy

By The Who.

Tis a very cool song... you's should give it a listen sometime.

One in Ten



(Chorus)
I am the one in ten
A number on a list
I am the one in ten
Even though I don`t exist
Nobody Knows me
But I`m always there
A statistic, a reminder
Of a world that doesn`t care


My arms enfold the dole queue
Malnutrition dulls my hair
My eyes are black and lifeless
With an underprivileged stare
I`m the beggar on the corner
Will no-one spare a dime?
I`m the child that never learns to read
`Cause no-one spared the time


(Chorus)

I am the one in ten .... etc


I`m the murderer and the victim
The licence with the gun
I`m a sad and bruised old lady
In an ally in a slum
I`m a middle aged businessman
With chronic heart disease
I`m another teenaged suicide
In a street that has no trees


(Chorus)

I am the one in ten .... etc


I`m a starving third world mother
A refugee without a home
I`m a house wife hooked on Valium
I`m a Pensioner alone
I`m a cancer ridden spectre
Covering the earth
I`m another hungry baby
I`m an accident of birth.


(Chorus)

I am the one in ten .... etc

Wait For Me

All these miles, haunting questions linger in my mind.
And all the while, making bad decisions out of line.
Still I've tried, to let go of the danger in my life.
It's alright, when that's the only thing I've left behind.
And there's still time...


Wait for me. There's so much more of life for us to see.
You must believe, it's not because of you I've had to leave.
Wait for me. I only hope that you'll remember me.

At this time, I'm counting all the reasons I should stay.
Bottom line. I'm missing all the things I gave away.
I remind, and see your face every single day.
Still I'm blind. I wish that there was something I could say
To make things right...

Wait for me. There's so much more of life for us to see.
You must believe, it's not because of you I've had to leave.
Wait for me. I only hope that you'll remember me.

Just hold on a little bit longer.
Thoughts and memories will be enough
My need for you is only growing stronger.
I know you don't understand it much
But it doesn't mean I have to care about you any less
It doesn't have a thing to do with that.
There's still so many questions that are gonna' be addressed
I'm sorry that it had to be like this.
But there's still time to make things right.

Wait for me. There's so much more of life for us to see.
You must believe, it's not because of you I've had to leave.
Wait for me. I only hope that you'll remember me.

That's Life

That's life, That's Life
that's what all the people say.
You're riding high on Monday,
shot down in May.
But I, I ain't never gonna change my tune
when I'm back on top in the month of June.

I said, that's life. That's Life
Ain't as funny as it may seem,
some people get their kicks
stompin' on a dream.
But I, I don't never let it get me down
'cause that big ol' world keeps spinnin' 'round.

Been a puppet, pirate, a poet, a pauper, a pawn and a king.
Been up and down and over and out and I know one thing:
each time that I find myself flat on my face
I pick myself up and get back in the race.

That's life, That's Life
And I can't deny it,
many times I thought of quitting, babe,
but my heart wouldn't buy it.
If I didn't think it was worth one try
I'd jump right on a big bird and I'd fly.

Been a puppet, poet, pirate, pauper; now I'm a king!
Been up, down, I know one thing:
each time that I find myself flat on my face
I pick myself up and get back in the race.

That's life, That's Life
And I can't deny it,
many times I thought of quitting, babe,
but my heart wouldn't buy it.
If I didn't think it was worth one try
I'd just roll myself up in a big ball and fly.

David Lee Roth's!

"Rainy Days"




Rainy days are gone sunny days are here again
when one door is closed, many more are opened
another rasta is born, another king is risen
rainy days are gone, sunny days are here again

Ah, looking back, checking stock on all those days,
and remembering life of me as a child
with nine mouths to feed
my mama never had it easy
with my papa gone
she hardly could find a penny
she taught me all the good
and brought me up the best she could
and right now I'm ready for the world

Rainy days are gone sunny days are here again
when one door is closed, many more are opened
another rasta is born, another king is risen
rainy days are gone, sunny days are here again

I've been through thick
I've been through thin
still I never give in
I learn and live
I live and learn
about the saviour within me
how many years without
that's why we never had it easy
but now my life is free
I know I got the master in me
teaching me the golden rule
so now I sing about Jah Jah

Rainy days are gone sunny days are here again
when one door is closed, many more are opened
another rasta is born, another king is risen
rainy days are gone, sunny days are here again

Rainy days are gone sunny days are here to stay
cos I've grown to learn about the master within me
