it amazes me sometimes how clever and how great the imagery is in that song.
I can't wait until the day schools are over-funded and the military is forced to hold bake sales to buy planes.

...and he did! :D


and here's his best song to date:

Sex tape
Sex tapes are awesome you can get famous
People can listen to them on their portable audio devices
And now that they have iPods that have video
They can play them on them too

hahahaha, yeah.

one of the things he talked about was how he's going to quit music (after this show I'm cancelling the tour, fuck it!) and he's going to make a sex tape to become famous. "And I'm going to do it in night vision ... I don't want to film in it night vision, I just wanna wear the goggles" :lol:

My Bloody Valentine - Sometimes

Close my eyes
Feel me now
I don't know how you could not love me now
You will know, with her feet down to the ground
Over there, and I want true love to grow
You can't hide, oh no, from the way I feel

Turn my head
Into sound
I don't know when I lay down on the ground
You will find the way, it hurts to love
Never cared, and the world turned hearts to love
We will see, oh now, in a day or two
You will wait
See me go
I don't care, where your head turned
You will wait, when I turn my eyes around
Overhead when I hold you next to me
Overhead, to know the way I see

Close my eyes
Feel me now
I don't know, maybe you could not hurt me now
Here alone, when I feel down too
Over there, when I await true love for you
You can hide, oh now, the way I do
You can see, oh now, oh the way I do
turn your head
come back again
to here knows when

Imogen Heap - The Walk

Inside out, upside-down twisting beside myself,
Stop that now, cos you and I were never meant to be
I think you better leave; it's not safe in here,
I feel a weakness coming on.

Alright then (Alright then) I could keep your number for a rainy day,
That's where this ends, no mistakes no misbehaving,
Oh, I was doing so well, can we just be friends,
I feel a weakness coming on.

It's not meant to be like this, not what I planned at all,
I don't want to feel like this, Yeah,
No it's not meant to be like this, not what I planned at all,
I don't want to feel like this, so that makes it all your fault.

Inside out, upside-down twisting beside myself,
Stop that now; you're as close as it gets without touching me,
Oh no, don't make it harder than it already is,
Mmm, I feel a weakness coming on.

It's not meant to be like this, not what I planned at all,
I don't want to feel like this, Yeah,
No it's not meant to be like this, not what I planned at all,
I don't want to feel like this, so that makes it all your fault.

Big trouble losing control,
Primary resistance at a critical low,
On the double gotta get a hold,
Point of no return one second to go,

No response on any level, red alert this vessels under siege,
Total overload, systems down, they've got control,
There's no way out, we are surrounded,
Give in, give in and relish every minute of it

Freeze, awake here forever, I feel a weakness coming on.

It's not meant to be like this, not what I planned at all,
I don't want to feel like this, Yeah,
No it's not meant to be like this, it's just what I don't need,
Why make me feel like this, it's definitely all your fault.

Feel like this la la la la la la la la
It's all your fault (Feel like this) la la la la la la la la
It's all your fault (Feel like this) la la la la la la la la
It's all your fault (Feel like this) la la la la la la la la
It's all your fault

I do believe it's true
That there are roads left in both of our shoes
If the silence takes you
Then I hope it takes me too
So brown eyes I hold you near
Cause you're the only song I want to hear
A melody softly soaring through my atmosphere



as much as i love death cab, seriously. someone shoot me. i've had this in my head over and over for at least 2 weeks now. my dad even tells me ive been singing/humming this in my sleep. :wall:
"if the nuremberg trials were applied to us foreign policy, every us president since 1945 would have been hanged." noam chomsky.

...and this is me hanging on / i'd burn our initials in the sun if it would shine / anxiety chokes me like razor wire / if hate's in your heart man, you'll take what you're given / wake up / i'm not the only one / it's never goodbye / go ahead and play dead / if everyone's a casualty, then take your time, there ain't no trouble / these wounds they will not heal / ambition can be a tricky thing / what the hell do i know about rape anyway? / this is not what i hoped for / ain't it so weird how it makes you a weapon / who will be there to tell me how stupid i am? / those living for death will die by their own hand / and it's me that I am spying on / pick up the pieces and live with the stars / hurry up and wait / things have never been so swell / they're always the ones who slowly drift / be great / ...and this is my world.

I get home from work and you're still standing in your dressing gown
well what am i to do?
i know all the things around your head and what they do to you.
what are we coming to?
what are we gonna do?

blame it on the black star
blame it on the falling sky
blame it on the satellite that beams me home.

the troubled words of a troubled mind i try to understand what is eating you.
i try to stay awake but its 58hours since that i last slept with you.
what are we coming to?
i just don't know anymore.

i get on the train and i just stand about now that i don't think of you.
i keep falling over i keep passing out when i see a face like you.
what am i coming to?
i'm gonna melt down

Can't get the stink off
He's been hanging round for days
Comes like a comet
Suckered you but not your friends
One day he'll get to you
And teach you how to be a holy cow

You do it to yourself, you do
And that's what really hurts
Is that you do it to yourself
Just you and no-one else
You do it to yourself
You do it to yourself

Don't get my sympathy
Hanging out the 15th floor
You've changed the locks three times
He still comes reeling through the door
One day I'll get you
And teach you how to get to purest hell

You do it to yourself, you do
And that's what really hurts
Is that you do it to yourself
Just you, you and no-one else
You do it to yourself
You do it to yourself

You do it to yourself, you do
and that's what really hurts
Is that you do it to yourself
Just you, you and no-one else
You do it to yourself
You do it to yourself, yourself, yourself.
Professional Canadian.

OK, there is a serious lack of Tom Waits in here. How can you have a thread of lyrics and have no Tom Waits?

Tom Waits - Innocent When You Dream

The bats are in the belfry
the dew is on the moor
where are the arms that held me
and pledged her love before
and pledged her love before

It's such a sad old feeling
the fields are soft and green
it's memories that I'm stealing
but you're innocent when you dream
when you dream
you're innocent when you dream

Running through the graveyard
we laughed my friends and I
we swore we'd be together
until the day we died
until the day we died

I made a golden promise
that we would never part
I gave my love a locket
and then I broke her heart
and then I broke her heart

It's such a sad old feeling
the fields are soft and green
it's memories that I'm stealing
but you're innocent when you dream
when you dream
you're innocent when you dream

Neverending White Lights- The Grace
In better days I've been known to listen
I go to waste all my time is missing

I'm mapping out my ending,
it's never gonna happen now
These things are condescending
with everybody backing down

You pray to stars that can help you get by
And all at once you forget to try

I'd go there if you let me,
they're never gonna find me now
My life is always empty
and in and out of doubt

Your not coming back for me, these things they will never be
I'm so used to being wrong, so put me where I belong

I'll get back to you,
God knows I try,
but I still lose
And I get back to you,
these days run by,
but I still lose


Angels say they can make you suffer
They give and take like a vicious lover

When all this loses meaning,
You'll never want it back somehow
Awake but still I'm dreaming
And never waking up

Alone...Where I'm not alone

Tom Waits has crazy good lyrics. Tango Til They're Sore, man.

Just let me fall out of the window with confetti in my hair
Deal out Jacks or better on a blanket by the stairs
I'll tell you all my secrets, but I lie about my past
So send me off to bed for evermore.


I also love most of Phil Anselmo's lyrics. I wouldn't say theyre poetic, but...
(War Nerve by Pantera)
Inside, ulcer
Unjust bastards
File out, face first
Meet the lies and see what you are


And you can't deny the impact of Neil Young's lyrics.
Let's impeach the president for lyin'
And leading our country into war
Abusing all the pwer that we gave him
And shipping all our money out the door

Apathy ~ The Tea Party

you want to look at the edge of madness
just to see to see
you want to find what you're missing out on
well come on over here child talk it all to me
don't you come here wasting my time
i'm going to make it just fine

now you're bent on the edge of blindness
what you trying to see?
you want to walk with a soul of darkness
but stepping on those coals
you get those blisters on your feet
well, don't you come here wasting my time
i'm going to make it just fine

can't there be some other way
can't we make you stay
in apathy?

so take a chance a soul divided stance
and bend before your needs
the waiting room is full you've pressured and you've pulled
and now your soul's tired crawling on the barbed wire
so don't you come here wasting my time
child i'm going to make it just fine

can't there be some other way
can't we make you stay
in apathy?

well can't there be some other way
can't we make you stay
in apathy?
don't you feel it all the love?
as below and so above
apathy
can't you feel it all the love?
i feel apathy
can't you feel it all the love?
i feel apathy
Before you criticize someone, walk a mile in their shoes.
That way, when you criticize them you are a mile away AND have their shoes.

Snow Patrol - How To Be Dead

Please don't go crazy if I tell you the truth
No you don't know what happened and you never will if
You don't listen to me while I talk to the wall
This blanket is freezing it's been out in the hall
Where you've had me for hours til I'm sure what I want
But darling I want the same thing that I wanted before
So sweetheart tell me what's up I won't stop
No way
Please keep your hands down and stop raising your voice
It's hardly what I'd be doing if you gave me a choice
It's a simple suggestion can you give me some time
So just say yes or no why can't you shoulder the blame
Cause both my shoulders are heavy from the weight of us both
You're a big boy now so let's not talk about growth
You've not heard a single word I have said
Oh my god
Please take it easy it can't all be my fault
I haven't made half the mistakes that you've listed so far
Baby let me explain something it's all down to drugs
At least I remember taking them and not a lot else
It seems I've stepped over lines you've drawn again and again
But if the ecstatsy's in the wit is definitely out
Dr Jekyll is wrestling Hyde for my pride
