I don't want to lose you

R.E.M.

That's great, it starts with an earthquake, birds and
snakes, an aeroplane and Lenny Bruce is not afraid.
Eye of a hurricane, listen to yourself churn - world
serves its own needs, dummy serve your own needs. Feed
it off an aux speak, grunt, no, strength, Ladder
start to clatter with fear fight down height. Wire
in a fire, representing seven games, a government
for hire and a combat site. Left of west and coming in
a hurry with the furies breathing down your neck. Team
by team reporters baffled, trumped, tethered cropped.
Look at that low playing! Fine, then. Uh oh,
overflow, population, common food, but it'll do. Save
yourself, serve yourself. World serves its own needs,
listen to your heart bleed dummy with the rapture and
the revered and the right, right. You vitriolic,
patriotic, slam, fight, bright light, feeling pretty
psyched.
It's the end of the world as we know it.
It's the end of the world as we know it.
It's the end of the world as we know it and I feel fine.

Six o'clock - TV hour. Don't get caught in foreign
towers. Slash and burn, return, listen to yourself
churn. Locking in, uniforming, book burning, blood
letting. Every motive escalate. Automotive incinerate.
Light a candle, light a votive. Step down, step down.
Watch your heel crush, crushed, uh-oh, this means no
fear cavalier. Renegade steer clear! A tournament,
tournament, a tournament of lies. Offer me solutions,
offer me alternatives and I decline.

It's the end of the world as we know it.
It's the end of the world as we know it.
It's the end of the world as we know it and I feel fine.

The other night I dreamt of knives, continental
drift divide. Mountains sit in a line, Leonard
Bernstein. Leonid Brezhnev, Lenny Bruce and Lester
Bangs. Birthday party, cheesecake, jelly bean, boom! You
symbiotic, patriotic, slam book neck, right? Right.

It's the end of the world as we know it.
It's the end of the world as we know it.
It's the end of the world as we know it and I feel
fine...fine...

(It's time I had some time alone)
 
keep it dark~genesis

Found that man reported missing,
He wandered in his home.
It don't seem to bad if you consider
Just what he's been through.

Seems he met up with a gang of thieves,
Who mistook him for a man of means,
They locked him up then found he had no money,
So they let him go again.
Now he's back at home and happy
Just to see the kids.

I wish that I could really tell you
All the things that happened to me
And all that I have seen.
A world full of people their hearts full of joy,
Cities of light with no fear of war,
And thousands of creatures with happier lives,
And dreams of a future with meaning and no need to hide.

Oh, keep it dark.

It seems strange to have to lie,
About a world so bright.
And tell instead a made-up story,
From the world of night.

I wish, that I could really tell you,
All the things that happened to me
And all that I have seen,
A world full of people their hearts full of joy,
Cities of light with no fear of war,
And thousands of creatures with happier lives,
And dreams of a future with meaning and no need to lie,
No need to hate,
No need to hide.

Oh, keep it dark.
 
poison~Alice Copper

Poison


Your cruel device
your blood, like ice
One look, could kill
My pain, your thrill...

I wanna love you but I better not touch (don’t touch)
I wanna hold you, but my senses tell me to stop
I wanna kiss you but I want it too much (too much)
I wanna taste you but your lips are venomous poison
You’re poison, running through my veins
Poison
I don’t wanna play these games

Your mouth, so hot
Your web, I’m caught
Your skin, so wet
Black lace, on sweat....

I hear you calling and it’s needles and pins (and pins)
I wanna hurt you just to hear you screaming my name
Don’t wanna touch you but you’re under my skin (deep in)
I wanna taste you but your lips are venomous poison
You’re poison, running through my veins
Poison
I don’t wanna break these chains
Poison...

(guitar solo)

One look, could kill
My pain, your thrill...

I wanna love you but I better not touch (don’t touch)
I wanna hold you, but my senses tell me to stop
I wanna kiss you but I want it too much (to much)
I wanna taste you but your lips are venomous poison
You’re poison, running through my veins
Poison
I don’t wanna break these chains
Poison (Poi-son....)

I wanna love you but I better not touch (don’t touch)
I wanna hold you, but my senses tell me to stop
I wanna kiss you but I want it too much (too much)
I wanna taste you but your lips are venomous poison
Yeah....
Well I don’t wanna break these chains
Poison
Runnin’ deep inside my veins
Burnin’ deep inside my brain
Poison
and I don’t wanna break these chains
Poison

tool~schism

I know the pieces fit 'cause I watched them fall away
Mildewed and smoldering.
Fundamental differing
Pure intention juxtaposed will set two lovers souls in motion
Disintegrating as it goes testing our communication
The light that fueled our fire then has burned a hole between us so
We cannot see to reach an end crippling our communication
I know the pieces fit 'cause I watched them tumble down
No fault, none to blame it doesn't mean I don't desire to
Point the finger, blame the other, watch the temple topple over
To bring the pieces back together, rediscover communication
The poetry that comes from the squaring off betweenAnd the circling is worth it
Finding beauty in the dissonance
There was a time that the pieces fit, but I watched them fall away
Mildewed and smoldering, strangled by our coveting
I've done the math enough to know the dangers of our second guessing
Doomed to crumble unless we grow, and strengthen our communication
Cold silence has a tendency to atrophy any
Sense of compassion
Between supposed lovers/brothers
I know the pieces fit
 
Forever by me

Forever; by Boo Roger (moi)
------------------

See into my eyes,
Shine with me,
I won't let you die.
You and me,
our sun fades to dust,
we breath the future lost,
I've sustained my thoughts.

I want you more than anything,
I want you to be mine forever.

I dream,
I wake,
in a world gone bad.
To shine stars ,
to find myself wandering
in the dark.

I want you more than anything,
i want you to be mine forever.

To be mine forever.
 
queen~bohemian rhapsody

Is this the real life?
Is this just fantasy?
Caught in a land-side, no escape from reality
Open your eyes
Look up to the skiesand see, I'm just a poor boy,
I need n sympathy, because I'm easy come, easy go
Little high, little low and way the wind blows
Doesn't really matter to me, to me
Mama, just killed a man
Put a gun againts his head,
Pulled my tigger, now he's dead
Mama, life had just begun
But now, I've gone and thrown it all away
Mama, ooh didn't mean to make you cry
If I'm not back again this time tomorrow
Carry on, carry on as
If nothing really matters
Too late, my time has come
Sends shivers down my spine;
Body's aching all the time
Goodbye, everybody, I've got to go
Gotta leave you all behind and face the truth
Mama, ooh (which ever way the wind blows)
I don't want to die I sometimes wish)
I'd never been born at all
I see a little silhouetto of a man
Scaramouche, scaramouche
Will you do the fandango thunderbolt and lighting
Very, very frightning me
Gallileo, gallileo, gallileo, gallileo, gallileo
Figaro, magnifico
I'm just a poor boy and nobody loves me

* He's just a poor boy from a poor family
Spare him his life from
This monstrosity
Easy come, easy go
Wiil you let me go, bismillah

** No, we will not let you go
Let him go! bismilah!
We will not let you go
Let him go! bismilah!
We will not let you go, let him go
Will not let you go let me go
Will not let you go, let me go ah…
Oh mama mia, mama mia, let me go
Beelzebub has a devil put a side for me, for me, for me

So you think you can stone me and spit in my eye
So you think you can love me and leave to die
Oh, baby, can't do this to me, baby
Just gotta get out
Just gotta get right outta here

Nothing really matters, any one can see
Nothing really matters
Nothing really matters to me
Any way the wind blows
 
Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds~Red Right Hand

Take a litle walk to the edge of town
Go across the tracks
Where the viaduct looms,
like a bird of doom
As it shifts and cracks
Where secrets lie in the border fires,
in the humming wires
Hey man, you know
you're never coming back
Past the square, past the bridge,
past the mills, past the stacks
On a gathering storm comes
a tall handsome man
In a dusty black coat with
a red right hand
He'll wrap you in his arms,
tell you that you've been a good boy
He'll rekindle all the dreams
it took you a lifetime to destroy
He'll reach deep into the hole,
heal your shrinking soul
Hey buddy, you know you're
never ever coming back
He's a god, he's a man,
he's a ghost, he's a guru
They're whispering his name
through this disappearing land
But hidden in his coat
is a red right hand
You ain't got no money?
He'll get you some
You ain't got no car? He'll get you one
You ain't got no self-respect,
you feel like an insect
Well don't you worry buddy,
cause here he comes
Through the ghettos and the barrio
and the bowery and the slum
A shadow is cast wherever he stands
Stacks of green paper in his
red right hand

You'll see him in your nightmares,
you'll see him in your dreams
He'll appear out of nowhere but
he ain't what he seems
You'll see him in your head,
on the TV screen
And hey buddy, I'm warning
you to turn it off
He's a ghost, he's a god,
he's a man, he's a guru
You're one microscopic cog
in his catastrophic plan
Designed and directed by
his red right hand

good old fashioned loverboy~queen

I can dim the lights and sing you songs full of sad things
We can do the tango just for two
I can serenade and gently play on your heart strings
Be your Valentino just for you
Ooh love - Ooh Loverboy
What're you doin' tonight, hey boy -
Set my alarm, turn on my charm
That's because I'm a good old-fashioned loverboy

Ooh let me feel your heartbeat (grow faster, faster)
Ooh Ooh let me feel your love heat
Come on and sit on my hot-seat of love
And tell me how do you feel right after-all
I'd like for you and I to go romancing

Say the word - your wish is my command
Ooh love - Ooh loverboy
What're you doin' tonight, hey boy
Write my letter
Feel much better
I'll use my fancy patter on the telephone
When I'm not with you
I think of you always
I miss you -
(I miss those long hot summer nights)
When I'm not with you
Think of me always
I love you - Love you

Hey boy where do you get it from
Hey boy where did you go?
I learned my passion in the good old
fashioned school of loverboys-
Dining at the Ritz we'll meet at nine precisely
I will pay the bill, you taste the wine
Driving back in style, in my saloon will do quite nicely
Just take me back to yours that will be fine (Come on and get it)

Ooh love, Ooh loverboy
What're you doin' tonight, hey boy -
Everything's all right
Just hold on tight -
That's because I'm a good old fashioned loverboy

fugazi~the waiting room

I am a patient boy
I wait, I wait, I wait, I wait
My time is like water down a drain
Everybody's moving,
Everything is moving
Please don't leave me to remain
In the waiting room
I don't want the news
I'm not a part of it
I don't want the news
I have no use for it
Sitting outside of town
Everybody's always down
Because... they can't get up
But I don't sit idly by
I'm planning a big surprise
I'm gonna fight for what I want to be
I won't make the same mistakes
Because I know how much time that wastes
Function is the key
In the waiting room
 
Physical~ NIN

i wanna date you, maybe
i wanna take you out
i wanna wine and dine you
oh, i wanna twist and twist and shout
i want you hot in my arms
so soft on my bed
you get the key to my heart
oh, when you wear that sweet dress
but you're too physical, physical to me
you're just too physical, physical, no, to me
i want your rough house baby
i want this right in your ear
you let me feel your danger
i let you make this feeling clear here
i want the touch of your charms
the heat of your breath
i wanna say all those things
that would be better unsaid....no
but you're too physical, physical to me
you're just too physical
oh, you're too physical for me
you're too physical to me
you're really just too, just too, just too, really fuck, no
(rrrrrrr, god damn it)
you're just too physical
you're just too physical
too fucking physical
no, no, no, no, no, no
oh, you're too physical
too physical
you're too...

the buzzcocks~why can't i touch it

Well it seems so real I can see it
And it seems so real I can feel it
And it seems so real I can taste it
And it seems so real I can hear it
So why can't I touch it?
So why can't I touch it?

Then it looks so real I can see it
And it feels so real I can feel it
And it tastes so real I can taste it
And it sounds so real I can hear it
So why can't I touch it?
So why can't I touch it?

Then it looks so real I can feel it
And it feels so real I can taste it
And it tastes so real I can hear it
And it sounds so real I can see it
So why can't I touch it?
So why can't I touch it?
 
vast~touched

touched
you say that i am too
so much of what you say is true
i'll never find someone
quite like you
again
i'll never find someone
quite like you like you
the razors and the dying roses
plead i don't leave you alone
the demi-gods and
hungry ghosts
god, god knows i'm not at home
i'll never find someone
quite like you
again
i'll never find someone
quite like you
again
i looked into your eyes and
saw a world that does not exist
i looked into your eyes and
saw a world i wish i was in
i'll never find someone
quite as touched as you
i'll never love someone
quite the way
that i loved you
