Vertical Horizon
Shackled
For so long my life's been sewn up tight inside your hold
And it leaves me there without a place to call my own
I know now what shadows can see
There's no point in running 'less you run with me
It's half the distance through the open door
Before you cut me down
Again
Let me introduce you to the end
And I feel the cold wind blowing beneath my wings
It always leads me back to suffering
But I will soar until the wind whips me down
Leaves me beaten on unholy ground again
So tired now of paying my dues
I start out strong but then I always lose
It's half the distance before you leave me behind
It's such a waste of time
Chorus
'Cause my shackles
You won't be
And my rapture
You won't believe
And deep inside you will bleed for me
So here I slave inside of a broken dream
Forever holding on to splitting seams
So take your piece and leave me alone to die
I don't need you to keep my faith alive
I know now what trouble can be
And why it follows me so easily
It's half the distance through the open door
Before you shut me down
Again
Let me introduce you to the end
Chorus
Though you know you care
Chorus
And my laughter
You won't hear
The faster
I disappear
And time will burn your eyes to tears

Moon Baby
Moon Baby
Let's take a blast to the moon baby
I sit around wishing you well
how I'm craving you, yeah!
Every time I'm near you
I always wanna swallow you down
I'll be right here if ya' need me
In my life, I'll need you here, don't ask why
I'll never disappear
why is it everyday that I feel the pain?
Let's take a trip to the stars far away
where were you when I was down?
Staring into the dead
my pain is caused by my pleasure
my soul mate lives in your body
I can't get you out of my head
It never goes away
In my life I'll need you here, don't ask why
I'll never disappear
In your eyes you can bid me farwell
but don't ever try to understand the situation
why is it everyday that I feel the pain?
It always comes when I least expect it
when I'm looking for love
always seem to be regretting it
Why is it everyday that I feel the pain?

"Shellshock"
Hold on! It's never enough
It's never enough until your heart stops beating
The deeper you get, the sweeter the pain
Don't give up the game until your heart stops beating
You call me on the phone, you left me all alone
All I get from you is shellshock
Another day goes by and all I do is cry
All I get from you is shellshock
I'd tell the world and save my soul
But rain falls down and I feel cold
A cold that sleeps within my heart
It tears the earth and sun apart
But that's the way that I can win
A victim of your evil sin
You've lost the hold you've had on me
By causing the changes that you never see
Hold on! It's never enough
It's never enough until your heart stops beating
The deeper you get, the sweeter the pain
Don't give up the game until your heart stops beating
When we walk through open doorways,
Counting time in one or more ways
We can't find our peace of mind
And life becomes a life of crime
And that's the day I call your name
I came to you, I called in vain
You lost the faith within your heart
The fire in your soul from the end to the start
Hold on!It's never enough
It's never enough until your heart stops beating
The deeper you get, the sweeter the pain
Don't give up the game until your heart stops beating
I've been good and I've been bad
But common sense I've never had
No matter how I try and try,
I hide the truth behind a lie
But that's the way that I can win
A victim of your evil sin
You lost the faith within your heart
The fire in your soul from the end to the start
Hold on!It's never enough
It's never enough until your heart stops beating
The deeper you get, the sweeter the pain
Don't give up the game until your heart stops beating

Can you tell I had Italian for dinner?
Ladies and gentlemen, the chairman of the board
They call you lady luck
but there is room for doubt
at times you have a very unladylike way
of running out
you're on this date with me
the pickin's have been lush
and yet before this evening is over
you might give me the brush
you might forget your manners
you might refuse to stay
and so the best that I can do
is
pray!~
Luck be a lady tonight
Luck be a lady tonight
Luck if you've ever been a lady to begin with
Luck be a lady tonight
Luck let a gentleman see
how nice a dame you can be
I know the way you treated other guys ya
been with
luck be a lady with me
a lady doesn't leave her escort
it isn't fair
it isn't nice
a lady doesn't wander all over the room
and blow on some other guys dice
Let's keep this party polite
never get out of my sight
stick with me baby
I'm the fella you came in with
Luck be a lady tonight
Luck let a gentleman see
just how nice
how nice a dame you can be
I know the way you treated other guys ya been with
Luck be a Lady with me
a lady doesn't leave her escort
it isn't fair
and its not nice
a lady doesn't wander all over the room
and blow on some other guys dice
so lets keep the party polite
never get out of my sight
stick with me baby I'm the guy you came in with
Luck be a lady

"Italian leather sofa"
She doesn't care
Whether or not he's an island.
She doesn't care,
Just as long as his ship's coming in.
She doesn't care
Whether or not he's an island.
If they laugh, they make money.
He's got a gold watch.
She's got a silk dress
And healthy breasts
That bounce on his Italian leather sofa. She doesn't care
Whether or not he's a good man.
She doesn't care,
Just as long as she still has her friends.
She doesn't care
Whether or not he's an island.
If they laugh, they make money.
He's got a gold watch.
She's got a silk dress
And healthy breasts
That bounce on his Italian leather sofa. She's got a serrated edge
That she moves back and forth.
It's such a simple machine.
She doesn't have to use force.
When she gets what she wants
She puts the rest on a tray
In a zip-loc bag. She's got a serrated edge
That she moves back and forth.
It's such a simple machine.
She doesn't have to use force.

She puts the rest on a tray

Cocteau Twins...(as much as their lyrics can be deciphered)
Cherry -coloured funk
Beetles and eggs and blues and pour a little everything else
You steam our unstable eyes and glass
Not get passed off through my bird lips as good news
Still we can find our love down from behind
Down far behind this fabulous, my turn rules
Beetles and eggs and blues and bells and eggs and then blues
Beetles and eggs and blues and pour a little everything else
You steam our unstable eyes and glass
Not get passed off through my bird lips as good news
You'll have the hardest black and dullest knife
We hanged your pass and start being as you in ecstasty
Still being cried and laughed at before
Should I be sewn in hugged I can by not saying
Still being cried and laughed at from light to blue
And should I be hugged and tugged down through this tiger's masque
And should I be sung and unbroken by not saying
You mind not saying
He'll have the hardest black and dullest ignite
Still being cried and laughed at from behind me, from gains
We hanged your pass and star being as you in ecstasy
Still being cried and laughed at from behind me, from gains
Should I be sung and unbroken by not saying
Still being cried and laughed at from behind me, from gains
Hugged and tugged down through this tiger's masque for key
from~Heaven or Las Vegas~

More Cocteau Twins...
Heaven or Las Vegas (excerpts)
...
...
...
...
Singing of a famous street
I want to love a boy that won't know me
But is it Heaven or Las Vegas?
It's so much more brighter than
The sun is to me
He's so scared to roll and then bet, too
I'm watching this
This fast fan fanfare
...

Must be why I'm thinking of Las Vegas
Why it's more brighter than
The sun is to me

Some fantasy for a carnival?
More fitting before a wedding

Must be why I'm thinking of Las Vegas
Why it's more brighter than
The sun is to me
Maybe then, you will swear
This is hardly personal
I suspect I'm singing to a tune
And still find that beats singing to your sone Fotzepolitic (excerpt)
My dreams are all more basic and must be addressed
They're a young girl's dreams
...
See and saw
Bounce me back to you, will you?

Yet another Cocteau Twins interpretation...
Iceblink Luck
I'm seeming to be glad a lot
I'm happy again
Caught, caught in time
This mustn't hurt or harm yourself
Well, me, I'll defend your prize
You're the match of Jericho
That will burn this old madhouse down
And will not throw open like the wall-not-safe
More like a love that's a bottle of exquisite stuff has
You, yourself and your father
Don't know so much in your own ways
You're really both bonesetters
Thank you for mending me, babies
You're the match of Jericho
That will burn this old madhouse down
And not throw open like a wall-not-safe
You will seem more like being like this same bottle of exquisite stuff
Yes, you are the match of Jericho that will burn
This old madhouse down
And not throw open like the wall-not-safe
You yourself and your father don't know
So much in your own ways
You're really both bonesetters
Thank you for mending me, babies

a little Siouxie...
Cities in Dust
Water was running; children were running
You were running out of time
Under the mountain, a golden fountain
Were you praying at the Lares shrine?
But oh your city lies in dust, my friend
We found you hiding we found you lying
Choking on the dirt and sand
Your former glories and all the stories
Dragged and washed with eager hands
But oh your city lies in dust, my friend
Hot and burning in your nostrils
Pouring down your gaping mouth
Your molten bodies blanket of cinders
Caught in the throes .......
And your city lies in dust
Cities in Dust
Water was running; children were running
You were running out of time
Under the mountain, a golden fountain
Were you praying at the Lares shrine?
But oh your city lies in dust, my friend
We found you hiding we found you lying
Choking on the dirt and sand
Your former glories and all the stories
Dragged and washed with eager hands
But oh your city lies in dust, my friend
Hot and burning in your nostrils
Pouring down your gaping mouth
Your molten bodies blanket of cinders
Caught in the throes .......
And your city lies in dust

The Killing Jar
Down where this ugly man
Seeks his sustenance
Down in the blue, midnight flare
A glass hand cuts through the water
Scything into his twisted roots
Then from his eyes
Spring fireflies
Breathing life
Into a roaring disguise
Needles and sins, sins and needles
He's gasping for air
In the wishing well
Dust to rust, ashes to gashes
Hand around the killing jar
A soft hoodwink of shadow
The size of make-believe
Punches through his spike of rage
A glass hand cuts through the water
Snuffing out the magic fury
Then from inside
Bolt lightning cries
Swiftly crushed
The final, muffled sighs
Needles and sins, sins and needles
He's gasping for air
In the wishing well
Dust to rust, ashes to gashes
Hand around the killing jar
Down where this ugly man
Seeks his sustenance
Down in the blue, midnight flare
A glass hand cuts through the water
Scything into his twisted roots
Then from his eyes
Spring fireflies
Breathing life
Into a roaring disguise
Needles and sins, sins and needles
He's gasping for air

Binge time
Kiss Them For Me
It glittered and it gleamed
for the arriving beauty queen
a ring and a car
now you're the prettiest by far
No party she'd not attend
no invitation she wouldn't send
transfixed by the inner sound
of your promise to be found
"Nothing or no-one will ever
make me let you down"
Kiss them for me -- I may be delayed
Kiss them for me -- if I am delayed
It's divoon, oh it's serene
in the fountains pink champagne
someone carving their devotion
in the heart shaped pool of fame
"Nothing or no-one will ever
make me let you down"
Kiss them for me -- I may be delayed
Kiss them for me -- I may find myself delayed
On the road to New Orleans
a spray of stars hit the screen
as the 10th impact shimmered
the forbidden candles beamed
Kiss them for me -- I may be delayed
Kiss them for me -- I may find myself delayed
Kiss them for me -- Kiss them for me
Kiss them for me -- I may find myself delayed

My shadow's
Shedding skin and
I've been picking
Scabs again.
I'm down
Digging through
My old muscles
Looking for a clue.
I've been crawling on my belly
Clearing out what could've been.
I've been wallowing in my own confused
And insecure delusions
For a piece to cross me over
Or a word to guide me in.
I wanna feel the changes coming down.
I wanna know what I've been hiding in
My shadow.
Change is coming through my shadow.
My shadow's shedding skin
I've been picking
My scabs again.
I've been crawling on my belly
Clearing out what could've been.
I've been wallowing in my own chaotic
And insecure delusions.
I wanna feel the change consume me,
Feel the outside turning in.
I wanna feel the metamorphosis and
Cleansing I've endured within
My shadow
Change is coming.
Now is my time.
Listen to my muscle memory.
Contemplate what I've been clinging to.
Forty-six and two ahead of me.
I choose to live and to
Grow, take and give and to
Move, learn and love and to
Cry, kill and die and to
Be paranoid and to
Lie, hate and fear and to
Do what it takes to move through.
I choose to live and to
Lie, kill and give and to
Die, learn and love and to
Do what it takes to step through.
See my shadow changing,
Stretching up and over me.
Soften this old armor.
Hoping I can clear the way
By stepping through my shadow,
Coming out the other side.
Step into the shadow.
Forty six and two are just ahead of me.
My shadow's
Shedding skin and
I've been picking
Scabs again.

Liz Phair!
Supernova
I have looked all over the place,
But you have got my favorite face.
Your eyelashes sparkle like gilded grass
and your lips are sweet and slippery
Like a cherub's bare wet ass ...
'Cause you're a human supernova,
A solar superman.
You're an angel with wings of fire,
A flying, giant friction blast.
You walk in clouds of glitter
and the sun reflects your eyes.
And every time the wind blows,
I can smell you in the sky.
Your kisses are as wicked as an F-16
And you fuck like a volcano
and you're everything to me...
'Cause you're a human supernova,
A solar superman
You're an angel with wings of fire,
A flying, giant friction blast
You're a giant, flying friction blast
'Cause you're a human supernova,
A solar superman,
You're an angel with wings of fire,
A flying, giant friction blast ...

2 words....Johnette Napolitano
~Caroline~
I hear you're driving
someone else's car now
she said you came and
took your stuff away
all the poetry and the trunk
you kept your life in
I knew tht it would
come to that someday
like a sad hallucination
when I opened up my eyes
the train had passed the station
and you were trapped inside
and I nver wonder where you went
I only wonder why...
Oh Caroline (x4)
I hear you're using someone else's number
she said she saw you in the store today
it don't matter whose address
you're listed under
I only know they'll never make you stay
Like a memory in motion
you were only passing through
but that's all you'll ever do
there's a dream I have where I sail away
and I'm looking back at you
and I wave goodbye
and I wonder why I wonder....
oh Caroline...
(another one of those drive across the desert in the dead of night songs...)
