i'm never gonna fall in line
so don't even bother wasting your time
i'm a breed of a different kind
stand back just to invade your mind

situation
under speculation
what are we facing?
too much complications
looking for a name
in a new generation
a new focus
new destination

i don't wanna look
i just wanna find
can you give me something to believe in
keep your religion, don't need your lies
i'm just looking for one good reason
feel like it's teenage hunting season
but nothing out there sounds half decent
who's out there? who's going to save us
before we all fall through the cracks in the pavement

there are few who can deny, at what i do i am the best
for my talents are renowned far and wide
when it comes to surprises in the moonlit night
i excel without ever even trying

with the slightest little effort of my ghost-like charm
i have seen grown men give out a shriek
with a wave of my hand and a well-placed moan
i have swept the very bravest off their feet

yet year after year it's the same routine
and i grow so tired of the sound of screams
and i, jack, the pumpkin king
have grown so tired of the same old thing

oh, somewhere deep inside of these bones
an emptiness began to grow
there's something out there far from my home
a longing that i've never known

i'm the master of fright and a demon of light
and i'll scare you right out of your pants
to a guy in kentucky i'm mister unlucky
and i'm known throught england and france

and since i am dead i can take off my head
to recite shakespearean quotations
no animal nor man can scream like i can
witht he fury of my recitations

but who here would ever understand
that the pumpkin king with the skeleton grin
would tire of his crown... if they only understood
he'd give it all up if he only could

oh there's an empty place in my bones
that calls out for something unknown
the fame and praise come year after year
does nothing for these empty tears.

his father was a drinker
and his mother cried in bed
folding john wayne's t-shirts
when the swing set hit his head

the neighbours they adored him
for his humour and his conversation
look underneath the house there
find the few living things
rotting fast in their sleep
oh the dead

twenty seven people
even more
they were boys
with their cars
summer jobs
oh my god
are you one of them?

he dressed up like a clown for them
with his face paint white and red
and on his best behaviour
in a dark room on the bed
he kissed them all

he killed ten thousand people
with a sleight
of his hand
running far
running fast
to their death

he took off all their clothes for them
he put a cloth
on their lips
quiet hands
quiet kiss
on the mouth

and in my best behaviour
i am really just like him
look beneath the floorboards
for the secrets i have hid

all i can say is that my life is pretty plain
i like watchin' the puddles gather rain.
and all i can do is just pour some tea for two,
and speak my point of view
but it's not sane; it's not sane

i just want someone to say to me:
"i'll always be there when you wake."
you know i'd like to keep my cheeks dry today,
so stay with me and I'll have it made

and I don't understand why I sleep all day,
and I start to complain that there's no rain.
and all I can do is read a book to stay awake
and it rips my life away, but it's a great escape.

all I can say is that my life is pretty plain,
you don't like my point of view,
you think I'm insane.
It's not sane......it's not sane.

i just want someone to say to me:
"i'll always be there when you wake"
you know I'd like to keep my cheeks dry today
so stay with me and I'll have it made
and I'll have it made.

Every now and then I fall out into open air just to feel the wind, rain and everything.
And though the hum and sway gets me down
, I'll find the way to peace and openness.

wha? sharing lyrics is illegal? that's crazy.

oh well. :D



Look up to the sky, the wind blows... (can't tell what he's saying)
whispers in my ear, you're all alone now, i'm very very sorry my dear
i always wondered why, we never found a good solution, sorrow is my minds pollution
you left me alone, dust upon the head of a stone

memories, memories, they always come back to haunt me when everything has turned to dust this won't be the last you hear from us
memories, memories, they always come back to haunt me when everything has turned to dust this won't be the last you hear from us
you left me alone! please just come back, home
you left me alone, i'm so alone

now don't you cry, your tears are wasted (gems?) from your desolate eyes
founded in the shadows, haunting memories and old forgotten sentiments
as for you have you forgotten, and feeling lonely too
you left me alone, please just come back home

memories, memories, they always come back to haunt me when everything has turned to dust this won't be the last you hear from us
memories, memories, they always come back to haunt me when everything has turned to dust this won't be the last you hear from us
you left me alone! please just come back, home
you left me alone, i'm so alone


and...the best part is I am totally sharing this on le hub.
it should be somewhere in the unknown artist files, under....(12-7-2005 3-09-23pm)
but it's titled memories.
and my exboyfriend wrote it for me. :/
it's still cute. :D

One, two
Born under a bad sign
I been down since I begin to crawl
If it wasn't for bad luck, I wouldn't have no luck at all

Hard luck and trouble
Is my only friend
I been on my own
Ever since I was ten

Born under a bad sign
I been down since I begin to crawl
If it wasn't for bad luck, I wouldn't have no luck at all

I can't read
Haven't learned how to write
My whole life has been
One big fight

Born under a bad sign
I been down since I begin to crawl
If it wasn't for bad luck, I wouldn't have no luck at all

I ain't lyin' ... (solo)

If it wasn't for bad luck I wouldn't have no kinda luck
If it wasn't for real bad luck, I wouldn't have no luck at all

Wine and women
is all I crave
A big legged woman is gonna carry me
to my grave

Born under a bad sign
I been down since I begin to crawl
If it wasn't for bad luck, I wouldn't have no luck at all

Yeah my bad luck boy
Been havin' bad luck all of my days, yes
hating thunder bay since 2003

Will you come and what will I say
Oh I have been so distant and unhappy
Like I could disappear

When I was a boy I saw things
That no one else could see
So why am I so blind at twenty-two
To the hope that is all around me
Filling up this room

On the road on my own
Waiting for the words to fall from your tongue
Into my ears

When I was a boy I could hear
Symphonies in seashells
So why am I so deaf at twenty-two
To the sound of the driving snow
That drives me home to you

Back in school they never taught us what we needed to know,
like how to deal with despair, or someone breaking your heart.
For twelve years I've held it all together but a night like this is begging to pull me apart.
I played it quiet, left you deep in conversation.
I felt uncool and hung out around the kitchen.
I remember I kept thinking that I know you never would,
and now I know I want to kill you like only a best friend could.

Everyone's caught on to everything you do
Everyone's caught on to.

As if this happening wasn't enough I got to go
and write a song just to remind myself how bad it sucked.
Ignore the sun, the cover's over my head.
I wrote a message on my pillow that says, "Jesse, stay asleep in bed."
So don't apologize. I hope you choke and die.
Search your cell for something with which to hang yourself.
They say you need to pray if you want to go to heaven
but they don't tell you what to say when your whole life has gone to hell.

Everyone's caught on to everything you do
Everyone's caught on to
And everyone's caught on to everything you do (And I can't let you, let me down again.)
Everyone's caught on to (And I can't let you, let me down again)

So, is that what you call a getaway?
Tell me what you got away with.
Cause I've seen more spine in jellyfish.
I've seen more guts in eleven-year-old kids.
Have another drink and drive yourself home.
I hope there's ice on all the roads.
And you can think of me when you forget your seatbelt,
and again when your head goes through the windshield.

And is that what you call tact?
You're as subtle as a brick in the small of my back.
So let's end this call, and end this conversation.
and is that what you call a getaway?
well tell me what you got away with.
cause you left the frays from the ties you severed
when you say best friends means friends forever

So, is that what you call a getaway?
Well tell me what you got away with.
Cause I've seen more spine in jellyfish.
I've seen more guts in eleven-year-old kids.
Have another drink and drive yourself home.
I hope there's ice on all the roads.
And you can think of me when you forget your seatbelt,
and again when your head goes through the windshield.

I know I already put part of this in "Say Something Random" but the resurrection of this thread is just calling for it.


Jayne, The man they call Jayne!
He robbed from the rich and he gave to the poor
stood up to the man and he gave him what for
our love for him now
ain't hard to explain;
The hero of Canton, the man they call Jayne!

Now Jayne saw the mudder's backs breakin'
and he saw the mudders lament
and he saw that magistrate takin'
every dollar and leavin' five cents.
He said "You can't do that to my people!
You can't crush them under your heal!"
So he strapped on his hat, and in five seconds flat
stole everything Boss Higgins had to steal.

He robbed from the rich and he gave to the poor
stood up to the man and he gave him what for
our love for him now
ain't hard to explain;
The hero of Canton, the man they call Jayne!

Now here's what separates heroes from common folk like you and I
The man they call Jayne, he turned round his plane
and let that money hit sky.
He dropped it onto our houses,
he dropped it into our yards.
The man they call Jayne, he stole away our pain
and headed out for the stars!

Another Firefly/Serenity fan?? This rocks! I just got the DVD yesterday.

Take my love, take my land
Take me where I cannot stand
I don't care, I'm still free
You can't take the sky from me
Take me out to the black
Tell them I ain't comin' back
Burn the land and boil the sea
You can't take the sky from me
There's no place I can be
Since I found Serenity
But you can't take the sky from me...
I don't do sigs.
-Darren
