Polly - Nirvana

Polly wants a cracker
I think I should get off her first
I think she wants some water
To put out the blow torch
Isn't me, have a seed
Let me clip your dirty wings
Let me take a ride, cut yourself
Want some help, please myself
Got some rope,
you have been told
Promise you, I have been true
Let me take a ride, cut yourself
Want some help, please myself
Polly wants a cracker
Maybe she would like some food
She asked me to untie her
A chase would be nice for a few
Isn't me, have a seed
Let me clip dirty wings
Let me take a ride, cut yourself
Want some help, please myself
Got some rope, you have been told
Promise you, I have been true
Let me take a ride, cut yourself
Want some help, please myself
Polly says
Polly says her back hurts
She's just as bored as me
She caught me off my guard
Amazes me the will of instinct
Isn't me, have a seed
Let me clip dirty wings
Let me take a ride, cut yourself
Want some help, please myself
Got some rope, you have been told
Promise you, I have been true
Let me take a ride, cut yourself
Want some help, please myself
 
Five Finger Death Punch - The Tragic Truth

I'm drowning in the bottom of a bottle
Running from a man I swore I'd never be
No one ever has to face tomorrow
But I'm the one that has to face me

It's the demons I've created for myself
The tragic truth
It's hard for me to understand myself
So it has to be hard as hell for you
For you

Are we born to be broken, sinners, and thieves
Someone tell the heavens I'm ready to escape
This is not what I wanted not what I need
Take it all tear it all
Rip it all away

I can't say the Devil made me do it
I chose to be the one I am, the way I am today
I wish there was but there's no way around it
In the end I made the choice and will not die ashamed
It's the voices screaming in my head
The tragic truth
It's hard for me to understand myself
So it has to be hard as hell for you
You

Are we born to be broken, sinners, and thieves
Someone tell the heavens I'm ready to escape! (You!)
This is not what I wanted not what I need
Take it all, tear it all, rip it all away!
Take it all, tear it all, take it all, tear it all away!

Are we born to be broken, sinners, and thieves?
Someone tell the heavens I'm ready to escape! (You!)
This is not what I wanted not what I need!
Take it all, tear it all, rip it all away! (Away!)

Are we born to be broken, sinners, and thieves?
Someone tell the heavens I'm ready to escape! (You!)
This is not what I wanted not what I need!
Take it all, tear it all, rip it all away!
Take it all, tear it all, rip it all, tear it all! (It all away)
Someone tell the heavens to take it all, tear it all away!
 
Good for those riding off into the sunset moments.

Knights of Cydonia by Muse


Come ride with me,
Through the veins of history,
I'll show you how god
falls asleep on the job.

And how can we win,
When fools can be kings,
Don't waste your time,
Or time will waste you,

No one's gonna take me alive,
The time has come to make things right,
You and I must fight for our rights,
You and I must fight to survive,

No one's gonna take me alive,
The time has come to make things right,
You and I must fight for our rights,
You and I must fight to survive


No one's going to take me alive,
The time has come to make things right,
You and I must fight for our rights,
You and I must fight to survive.​
 
Levi Weaver - Family Feud


broken, broken like a spoke on some old wagon wheel gone by
i'm wishing that fire that took my wife had taken me, ashen, to the sky
to become the rain and fall upon this dust-ridden city where she died
but no amount of whiskey spilt will grant to me this wish i wish tonight
ten years before, i was eleven and a paragon of bitterness
a victim of the system thrown like a parcel to a train
and i watched my sisters shrink as my orphan eyes joined the horizon
and i quickly became the splinter of my own universe
until the day she broke my thorns and i became an honest man
i loved my wife, i earned an honest living working with my hands
and then last friday, she met heaven in a fire i couldn't quench
if life's a highway i'm that body bagged and laying in the ditch
Oh Warden! Bring the pardon! Or let this hanging (the swinging) soon commence!
Oh Prison! this is ending! Innocence or Recompense!
"let those doors have swung with purpose", i plead to my audience of none
i need a scapegoat for my guilt; i need a target for my gun
and then as if on cue, she eases through and takes a seat not seven feet from mine...
and the night has just begun.
i lost my inhibitions in a bottle, but it's not romance i crave
and if the devil can't bring a man to chide, well, then a woman must be brave,
it's not your gender, it's my history that's fueling this tirade
it's not your figure, it's your timing, you will draw my ire in spades
so i unleashed an army firing blazing arrows from my tongue
and twenty minutes she endures it, but her patience now is done
and now she's standing, her eyes filling, they meet mine, now they run
i can't believe what i am seeing - she's reaching for her gun!
and oh i beat her to the draw, and you can bet my aim was certain
or maybe fatefully unlucky but shots one through through seven mostly hit their mark.
the first three from me to her and then from just inside the door one sheriff's warning shot caught me off-guard
and my last three found his heart
and in a panic with no bullets left to clear my path to freedom
i dove next to her to commandeer her weapon that still hadn't fired a round
but to my horror underneath the dying fingers of that woman
hidden in the place no gun existed i drew back at what i found
it was a locket...
with a picture...
of my own dear dad and mother
i collapsed upon my sister as my sentence fired down.​
 
That I did not wake up dead!:D


This made me think of this song.

Pretend We're Dead by L7


What's up with what's going down
In every city, in every town
Cramping styles is the plan
They've got in the palm of their big hands

When we pretend that we're dead
When we pretend that we're dead
They can't hear a word we've said
When we pretend that we're dead

C'mon, c'mon, c'mon, c'mon
C'mon, c'mon, c'mon, c'mon
C'mon, c'mon, c'mon, c'mon
C'mon, c'mon, c'mon, c'mon

Turn the tables with our unity
They're neither moral nor majority
Wake up and smell the coffee
Or just say no to individuality

When we pretend that we're dead
When we pretend that we're dead
They can't hear a word we've said
When we pretend that we're dead

C'mon, c'mon, c'mon, c'mon
C'mon, c'mon, c'mon, c'mon
C'mon, c'mon, c'mon, c'mon
C'mon, c'mon, c'mon, c'mon​
 
The Book Of Love by Peter Gabriel

The book of love is long and boring
No one can lift the damn thing
It's full of charts and facts and figures and instructions for dancing
But I
I love it when you read to me
And you
You can read me anything
The book of love has music in it
In fact that's where music comes from
Some of it is just transcendental
Some of it is just really dumb
But I
I love it when you sing to me
And you
You can sing me anything
The book of love is long and boring
And written very long ago
It's full of flowers and heart-shaped boxes
And things we're all too young to know
But I
I love it when you give me things
And you
You ought to give me wedding rings
And I
I love it when you give me things
And you
You ought to give me wedding rings
And I
I love it when you give me things
And you
You ought to give me wedding rings
You ought to give me wedding rings
 
Thanks to a certain person whose screen name reminds me of Mister Krabs for some odd reason, this has been in my head for quite some time this afternoon.

Chris Isaak -"Baby did a Bad Bad Thing"
Baby did a bad bad thing, baby did a bad bad thing.
Baby did a bad bad thing, baby did a bad bad thing.
You ever love someone so much you thought your little heart was gonna
Break in two?
I didn't think so.
You ever tried with all your heart and soul to get you lover back to
You?
I wanna hope so.
You ever pray with all your heart and soul just to watch her walk away?
Baby did a bad bad thing, baby did a bad bad thing.
Baby did a bad bad thing, feel like crying, feel like crying.
You ever toss and turn your llying awake and thinking about the one you
Love?
I don't think so.
You ever close your eyes you making believe your holding the one your
Dreaming of?
Well if you say so.
I hurts so bad when you finally know just how low, low, low, low, low,
She'll go.
Baby did a bad bad thing, baby did a bad bad thing.
Baby did a bad bad thing, feel like crying, feel like crying.
Ohh. Feel like crying, feel like crying.
Ohh, feel like crying, feel like crying.
( Guitar Solo )
Baby did a bad bad thing, baby did a bad bad thing.

Or fellette, I obviously have no idea who this person is.
 
Clay, by Atmosphere

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jm75221-yeI

When I first landed the damage was outlandish
anguish, anxiousness, and taking it for granted
but when I first landed I was so relieved I lost my focus
soon exceeded recommended dosages

now I hold the crypt that holds the soul that holds the poet skills
exclusive; it leaves illusions of unfocused flows
I don't suppose you're taking too much time,
breaking too much mind, trying to unravel the babble,
that dismantled and left the lines in need of some assembly,
so I can find the secret key and free all the emcees.
This planet spins on a thin axis.
All axis/access passes won't help you to grasp the atmos'.

I mean, what did you think
my agenda was to freestyle, smile, get paid to smoke weed,
and grab the mic and spoon-feed?
There's more to this than just paying the rent.
If you're riding on this song, you need to ride it to the end.

[Chorus]
What could you say as the Earth gets further and further away,
Planets as small as balls of clay. (x4)

Some shells get broke.
Some keep their wigs closed.
Some get exposed as little man big pose.
Some make moves, and some stay daydreamers,
but everybody seems to want some loot, food and a beemer.

Well make mine hunter green with camo insides,
10 percent tints, Mr. Pibb, and some french fries.
Inch by inch I take it closer to the shoulder,
but day by day it's getting harder to stay sober.

Once again on the edge, head's inebriated.
Movement needs motive, it's easier to be sedated.
What makes me mighty and another tiny?
Why does my psyche give a damn about whether or not you like me?

If this rhyme's right, I might be wrong.
I grip this mic tight because it's all I really have a grip on.
So let the losers lose, and let the players play.
The only difference is the day to some dust on some clay, what

[Chorus - 4X]

Who's world is that? It ain't mine, and I'm grateful,
already got a plate full of clay on my table.
I'm capable of handling fate, I know this;
so do the people that get pissed when this microphonist spits.

Too many get caught up in the lines that emcees thought up,
but it's clear to me, the ones that fear me are the one's that outta.
I spot a blemish on your planet's existence.
I deliver subtle terror submerged in clever sentences.

Instantly pissing away the misfits,
the only residue that came of the hypothetical spew they sprayed.
When they swayed I'd have 'em.
Half of 'em can't fathom
where the math's from
I may be on those
you can ask 'em.

At last, when we get down to it,
there's more than sand and fluid
In how I revolve, and evolve.
Can we solve the secrets? No.
Can we take trinkets? No.
So when the ink hits it's more than just a sequenced flow.


I can't bring you with me, so I'm a leave me here.
Centuries from now they're gonna study Atmosphere.
Carefully I steer, I'm aware life is fatal.
When I go, I wanna go like Ho, taken by the play-dough.

[Chorus - 4X]

Rise Against - Satellite


You can't feel the heat until you hold your hand over the flame
You have to cross the line just to remember where it lays
You won't know your worth now, son, until you take a hit
And you won't find the beat until you lose yourself in it

That's why we won't back down
We won't run and hide
Yeah, 'cause these are the things that we can't deny
I'm passing over you like a satellite
So catch me if I fall
That's why we stick to your game plans and party lives
But at night we're conspiring by candlelight
We are the orphans of the American dream
So shine your light on me

You can't fill your cup until you empty all it has
You can't understand what lays ahead
If you don't understand the past
You'll never learn to fly now
'Til you're standing at the cliff
And you can't truly love until you've given up on it

That's why we won't back down
We won't run and hide
Yeah, 'cause these are the things that we can't deny
I'm passing over you like a satellite
So catch me if I fall
That's why we stick to your game plans and party lives
But at night we're conspiring by candlelight
We are the orphans of the American dream
So shine your light on me

She told me that she never could face the world again
So I offered up a plan

We'll sneak out while they sleep
And sail off in the night.
We'll come clean and start over the rest of our lives.
When we're gone we'll stay gone.
Out of sight, out of mind.
It's not too late,
We have the rest of our lives.

We'll sneak out while they sleep
And sail off in the night
We'll come clean and start over the rest of our lives
When we're gone we'll stay gone.
Out of sight, out of mind.
It's not too late,
We have the rest of our lives.
The rest of our lives

Because we won't back down
We won't run and hide
Yeah, 'cause these are the things that we can't deny
I'm passing over you like a satellite
So catch me if I fall
That's why we stick to your game plans and party lives
But at night we're conspiring by candlelight
We are the orphans of the American dream
So shine your light on me (shine your light on me)

Because we won't back down
We won't run and hide
Yeah, 'cause these are the things that we can't deny
I'm passing over you like a satellite
'cause these are the things that we can't deny now
This is a life that you can't deny us now
 


"I Wanna Be Loved"

Love once left me cold and gray
I had almost reached heaven
Just to feel it slip away
But life's too short to waste away
Being scared to take chances
Or so I've heard wise men say

I wanna be loved
Faithful and true
I wanna be loved
Ten million lifetimes with you
I wanna be loved
And after all I've been through
I'll let my heart take it's chances, just to be loved by you

Taste, touch, hear, see, feel me now girl
And you'll know I'm so ready
To exchange lifelong vows, yes I am
'Cause now you've shown me how God has smiled
On this chance and this moment
For this I've prayed all my life

I wanna be loved
Faithful and true
I wanna be loved
Ten million lifetimes with you girl
I wanna be loved
And after all I've been through
I'll let my heart take its chances, just to be loved by you

I wanna feel there's a reason for living again
I want us to fly far away
And I want my heart to sing the words only you can understand
So put your hand in mine, say a prayer tonight
So that we may find love

I wanna be loved
I want to be faithful and true
I wanna be loved
Ten million lifetimes with you baby
I wanna be loved
And after all I've been through
I'll let my heart take its chances, just to be loved by you

I want to be loved
Faithful and true
I want to be loved
Ten billion lifetimes, ten zillion, ten trillion lifetimes baby
And after all I've been through
I'll let my heart take a chance just to be loved by you
I'll let my heart take a chance just to be loved by you

 
Can I Play With Madness

Give me the sense to wonder
To wonder if I'm free
Give me a sense of wonder
To know I can believe
Give me the strength to hold my head up
Spit back in their face
Don't need no key to unlock this door
Gonna break down the walls
Break out of this bad place

Can I play with madness - the prophet stared at his crystal ball
Can I play with madness - there's no vision there at all
Can I play with madness - the prophet looked and he laughed at me
Can I play with madness - he said you're blind too blind to see

I screamed aloud to the old man
I said don't lie don't say you don't know
I say you'll pay for (this) mischief
In this world or the next
Oh and then he fixed me with a freezing glance
And the hell fires raged in his eyes
He said do you want to know the truth son
- I'll tell you the truth
Your soul's gonna burn in the lake of fire

Can I play with madness - the prophet stared at his crystal ball
Can I play with madness - there's no vision there at all
Can I play with madness - the prophet looked and he laughed at me
Can I play with madness - he said you're blind too blind to see

Oooh, listen to me, listen the prophet...

Can I play with madness - the prophet stared at his crystal ball
Can I play with madness - there's no vision there at all
Can I play with madness - the prophet looked and he laughed at me
Can I play with madness - he said you're blind too blind to see

Can I play with madness​
 

Amazing song from my favorite band, nice pick.

Anyway.

The Sound of Drums by Chameleon Circuit

Can you hear them? They're coming
They're in the signal, they're in my head.

Is it only me?
Am I the only one to be called?
This pounding in my ears is calling me to rule the world.

Rule the universe as a Master of your fate.
Can you hear the drums?
Don't try to fight them; it's too late.

Each Timelord child,
Approaches the eye,
Forced to behold the vortex,
To be inspired or run,
But as I gazed into the vastness of time,
I heard the sound of drums.

Can you hear them? They're coming
They're in the signal, they're in my head.
Can you hear them? They're coming
They're in the signal, they're in my head.

In professor's guise,
Oh Doctor, Doctor, you have healed me.
You are not alone,
It took you far too long to see me.
Now I lay in your arms,
Mortally wounded in your care.
I'll leave you here forever,
Last of the Timelords once again.

Don't leave me now,
Think of all we've done together,
Think of all the vanquished foes,
Think of all we could be.

It would be hell for me, imprisoned here forever, with you.

Don't, please, you've got to, please, we're the only ones left, please,
Just regenerate!

Can you hear them
(In my dreams they're calling)
They're coming
(And every waking moment)
They're in the signal
(I heard the vortex calling)
They're in my head.

Can you hear them?
(I heard the sound)
They're coming
(The sound of drums)
They're in the signal
They're in my head​
 
I've been listening to the newest Korn album, The Path of Totality. Pretty good stuff all around.
 
Because...when I started listening to Korn, I was an angry teenage girl. This album just doesn't bring out what I like about them. The whole dub step thing is overdone these days

Ah. Well, it certainly is a departure from what they have done in the past, but I still like the album.

I certainly hope the angry teenager mellowed out. Or at least she's come to an agreement with who you are now. I know my angry teenager is still in there somewhere...
 
Sia - "Soon We'll Be Found"

Come along it is the break of day
Surely now, you'll have some things to say
It's not the time for telling tales on me

So come along, it wont be long
'Til we return happy
Shut your eyes, there are no lies
In this world we call sleep
Let's desert this day of hurt
Tomorrow we'll be free

Let's not fight I'm tired can't we just sleep tonight
Turn away it's just there's nothing left here to say
Turn around I know we're lost but soon we'll be found

Well it's been rough but we'll be just fine
Work it out yeah we'll survive
You mustn't let a few bad times dictate

So come along, it wont be long
'Til we return happy
hut your eyes, there are no lies
In this world we call sleep
Let's desert this day of hurt
Tomorrow we'll be free

Let's not fight I'm tired can't we just sleep tonight
Turn away it's just there's nothing left here to say
Turn around I know we're lost but soon we'll be found
