without a doubt
tim finn

Live for the day,
When I'm left here on my own,
With noone to betray,
It's no wonder I prefer be a castaway
Who finds a friendly shore. When you have a friend,
Then you have yourself a foe.
My right to defend,
Yours to scatter in one blow,
My defences,
Im defenceless. Here in the dark,
I guess a few fuses have blown.
The bites back in the bark,
And the gardens overgrown.
Im in a right mess,
There's a tightness in my heart. Like a fly in the ointment,
Love makes my flesh creep.
Love gets me hot and bothered,
It's just a reward I cant reap.
Lying alone on the lawn babe,
Hot sun overhead,
Waiting for a breath of inspiration
To carry me away instead. Without a doubt,
Without a doubt. Working
For precious little,
Playing,
The second fiddle. Ive been living on broken promises,
Living on guarentees,
Sometimes at night when the moon is bright,
You can see me down on my knees,
Im looking for home truthes,
An offer I cant refuse
A leap in the dark,
A touch and go,
I've got nothing left to lose? Without a doubt,
Without a doubt. I'm learning,
Back where I started,
I'm learning,
I'm broken hearted, But without a doubt,
Without a doubt. I'm working
For precious little,
I'm playing,
The second fiddle Without a doubt,
Without a doubt. I'm learning,
Back where I started
I'm learning,
Im broken hearted, But without a doubt,
Without a doubt. Live for the day
Whem I'm left here on my own
With noone to betray
Its no wonder prefer to be a castaway
Who finds a friendly shore Washed up on rocks,
In the calm after the storm,
I can run a amock,
And every days a high-day,
A holiday, my hideaway,
Ive got no reason left to stay.

Army of me
Bjork

Stand up
You've got to manage
I won't sympathize
Anymore

And if you complain once more
You'll meet an army of me

You're alright
There's nothing wrong
Self-sufficience please!
And get to work

And if you complain once more
You'll meet an army of me

You're on your own now
We won't save you
Your rescue-squad
Is too exhausted

And if you complain once more
You'll meet an army of me

I'm running out of room
Don`t make me say it
There is nothing left in me
Don`t make me
Too much for hotel rooms
Don`t make me say it
Sleeping pills don`t make me
There is no love left in your eyes
There is love between your thighs
Roll over say goodnight
A morning dog howl in the street
Cup filled tiny hands and feet
Napkin in the drain

I`m running out of room
Don`t make me say it
There is nothing left in me
Don`t make me
Too much for hotel rooms
Don`t make me say it
Sleeping pills don`t make me

There is no love left in your eyes
There is love between your thighs
Roll over say goodnight
I hate my life I hate my life
Never want another wife
I want the life you think I have

There is no love left in your eyes
There is love between your thighs
Roll over say goodnight
I`ve had enough of feeling sick
You`ve had enough of feeling sick
The sugar never helps
I hate my life I hate my life
Never want another wife
I want the life you think I have

Instincts that can still betray us,
A journey that leads to the sun,
Soulless and bent on destruction,
A struggle between right and wrong.
You take my place in the showdown,
I'll observe with a pitiful eye,
I'd humbly ask for forgiveness,
A request well beyond you and I.

Heart and soul, one will burn.
Heart and soul, one will burn.

An abyss that laughs at creation,
A circus complete with all fools,
Foundations that lasted the ages,
Then ripped apart at their roots.
Beyond all this good is the terror,
The grip of a mercenary hand,
When savagery turns all good reason,
There's no turning back, no last stand.

Heart and soul, one will burn.
Heart and soul, one will burn.

Existence well what does it matter?
I exist on the best terms I can.
The past is now part of my future,
The present is well out of hand.
The present is well out of hand,

Heart and soul, one will burn.
Heart and soul, one will burn.
One will burn, one will burn,
Heart and soul, one will burn.

i love deborahs lyrics
Great, poetic lyrics, as are the rest of the tracks on Closer.

Joy Division-Atrocity Exhibition
Asylums with doors open wide,
Where people had paid to see inside,
For entertainment they watch his body twist
Behind his eyes he says, 'I still exist.'

This is the way, step inside.
This is the way, step inside.
This is the way, step inside.
This is the way, step inside.

In arenas he kills for a prize,
Wins a minute to add to his life.
But the sickness is drowned by cries for more,
Pray to God, make it quick, watch him fall.

This is the way, step inside.
This is the way, step inside.
This is the way, step inside.
This is the way, step inside.

This is the way.
This is the way.
This is the way.
This is the way.
This is the way, step inside.
This is the way, step inside.
This is the way, step inside.
This is the way, step inside.

You'll see the horrors of a faraway place,
Meet the architects of law face to face.
See mass murder on a scale you've never seen,
And all the ones who try hard to succeed.

This is the way, step inside.
This is the way, step inside.
This is the way, step inside.
This is the way, step inside.

And I picked on the whims of a thousand or more,
Still pursuing the path that's been buried for years,
All the dead wood from jungles and cities on fire,
Can't replace or relate, can't release or repair,
Take my hand and I'll show you what was and will be.

Distant sun
Crowded House

Tell me all the things you would change
I don't pretend to know what you want
When you come around and spin my top
Time and again, time and again
No fire where I lit my spark
I am not afraid of the dark
Where your words devour my heart
And put me to shame, put me to shame

And your seven worlds collide
Whenever I am by your side
And dust from a distant sun
Will shower over everyone

You're still so young to travel so far
Old enough to know who you are
Wise enough to carry the scars
Without any blame, there's no one to blame
It's easy to forget what you learned
Waiting for the thrill to return
Feeling your desire burn
You're drawn to the flame

When your seven worlds collide
Whenever I am by your side
And dust from a distant sun
Will shower over everyone
Dust from a distant sun
Will shower over everyone

And I'm lying on the table
Washed out in the flood
Like a Christian fearing vengeance from above
I don't pretend to know what you want
But I offer love

Seven worlds collide
Whenever I am by your side
And dust from a distant sun
Will shower over everyone

As time slips by, and on and on

summertime rolls
Janes Addiction

fell into
a sea of grass
and disappeared among
the shady blades...
children all
ran over me
screaming tag!
you are the one!
he trips her as
her sandals fail
she says stop!
i'm a girl...
whose fingernails are made
of mother's pearl...
yellow buttercup
helicopters
orange buttercat
chasing after
the crazy bee
mad about somebody...
me and my girlfriend
don't wear no shoes
her nose is painted pepper sunlight...
she loves me
i mean it's serious
as serious can be...
she sings a song and
i listen to what it says:
if you want a friend
feed any animal...
there was so much space
i cut me a piece
with some fine wine
it brought peace to my mind
in the summertime...
and it rolled
summer.... oh...
oh.... the summertime rolls
me and my girlfriend
don't wear no clothes, you know
her nose is painted pepper sunlight...
i love her
i mean it's serious
as serious can be...

Moonchild
Chris Cornell

Open your arms to the lonely shine
Lonesome as gold in a poor mans smile
See how the moon is full
Follow the push and pull
Follow the ebb and flow in the breathing tide

Come on moonchild, youre so far away tonight
The door is falling open and were flying wild

Cat on the road, down in the living night
See how the black dog grins
In the diamond light
Were dreaming and were real
Were broken and were healed
Give in to what you feel over what you see

Come on moonchild, youre so far away tonight
The door is falling open and were flying wild
Come on moon flower
Youre so far away from now
You could bloom forever in the hour

And when if is only yes and no
And now becomes too soon
I know youll be alright if you only
Come away to the moon
In the blue shine

Come on moonchild, youre so far away tonight
The door is falling open and were flying wild
Come on moon flower
Youre so far away from now
You could bloom forever in the hour

Something has to change.
Un-deniable dilemma.
Boredom's not a burden
Anyone should bear.

Constant over stimu-lation numbs me
but I would not want
You any other way.

Cause,
It's not enough.
I need more.
Nothing seems to satisfy.
I said,
I don't want it.
I just need it.
To breathe, to feel, to know I'm alive.

Finger deep within the borderline.
Show me that you love me and that we belong together.
Relax, turn around and take my hand.

I can help you change
Tired moments into pleasure.
Say the word and we'll be
Well upon our way.

Blend and balance
Pain and comfort
Deep within you
Till you will not want me any other way.

But,
It's not enough.
I need more.
Nothing seems to satisfy.
I said,
I don't want it.
I just need it.
To breathe, to feel, to know I'm alive.

Knuckle deep inside the borderline.
This may hurt a little but it's something you'll get used to.
Relax. Slip away.

Something kinda sad about
the way that things have come to be.
Desensitized to everything.
What became of subtlety?

How can this mean anything to me
If I really don't feel anything at all?

I'll keep digging till
I feel something.

Elbow deep inside the borderline.
Show me that you love me and that we belong together.
Shoulder deep within the borderline.
Relax. Turn around and take my hand.

Or Unknown Pleasures;

Joy Division-She's Lost Control
Confusion in her eyes that says it all.
She's lost control.
And she's clinging to the nearest passer by,
She's lost control.
And she gave away the secrets of her past,
And said I've lost control again,
And a voice that told her when and where to act,
She said I've lost control again.

And she turned around and took me by the hand and said,
I've lost control again.
And how I'll never know just why or understand,
She said I've lost control again.
And she screamed out kicking on her side and said,
I've lost control again.
And seized up on the floor, I thought she'd die.
She said I've lost control.
She's lost control again.
She's lost control.
She's lost control again.
She's lost control.

Well I had to 'phone her friend to state my case,
And say she's lost control again.
And she showed up all the errors and mistakes,
And said I've lost control again.
But she expressed herself in many different ways,
Until she lost control again.
And walked upon the edge of no escape,
And laughed I've lost control.
She's lost control again.
She's lost control.
She's lost control again.
She's lost control.


Shadowplay
To the centre of the city where all roads meet, waiting for you,
To the depths of the ocean where all hopes sank, searching for you,
I was moving through the silence without motion, waiting for you,
In a room with a window in the corner I found truth.

In the shadowplay, acting out your own death, knowing no more,
As the assassins all grouped in four lines, dancing on the floor,
And with cold streel, odour on their bodies mad a move to connect,
But I could only stare in disbelief as the crowds all left.

I did everything, everything I wanted to,
I let them use you for their own ends,
To the centre of the city in the night, waiting for you.
To the centre of the city in the night, waiting for you.

Play Dead
Bjork

darling stop confusing me
with your wishful thinking
hopeful enbraces
don't you understand?
i have to go through this
i belong to here where
no-one cares and no-one loves
no light no air to live in
a place called hate
the city of fear

i play dead
it stops the hurting
i play dead
and hurting stops

it's sometimes just like sleeping
curling up inside my private tortures
i nestle into pain
hug suffering
caress every ache

i play dead
it stops the hurting

only you
Portishead

We suffer everyday, what is it for
These crimes of illusion, are fooling us all
And now I am weary and I feel like I do

It's only you, who can tell me apart
And it's only you, who can turn my wooden heart

The size of our fight, it's just a dream
We've crushed everything I can see, in this morning selfishly
How we've failed and I feel like I do

It's only you, who can tell me apart
And it's only you, who can turn my wooden heart

Now that we've chosen to take all we can
This shade of autumn, a stale bitter end
Years of frustration lay down side by side

And it's only you, who can tell me apart
And it's only you, who can turn my wooden heart

It's only you, who can tell me apart
And it's only you, who can turn my wooden heart

High Hopes
PF

Beyond the horizon of the place we lived when we were young
In a world of magnets and miracles
Our thoughts strayed constantly and without boundary
The ringing of the division bell had begun

Along the long road and on down the causeway
Do they still meet there by the cut

There was a ragged band that followed in our footsteps
Running before time took our dreams away
Leaving the myriad small creatures trying to tie us to the ground
To a life consumed by slow decay

The grass was greener
The light was brighter
With friends surrounded
The nights of wonder

Looking beyond the embers of bridges glowing behind us
To a glimpse of how green it was on the other side
Steps taken forwards but sleepwalking back again
Dragged by the force of some inner tide
At a higher altitude with flag unfuried
We reached the dizzy heights of that dreamed of world

Encumbered forever by desire and ambition
There's a hunger still unsatisfied
Our weary eyes still stray to the horizon
though down this road we've been so many times

The grass was greener
The light was brighter
The taste was sweeter
The nights of wonder
With friends surrounded
The dawn mist glowing
The water flowing
The endless river

Forever and ever

Tear
rhcp

This is my time
This is my tear
I can see clearly now
That this is not a place
For playing solitaire
Tell me where you want me
This is my time
This is my tear

Comin' on strong
Baudelaire
Seems to me like
All the world gets high
When you take a dare
Let it rise before you
This is my time

All in all I'm
Loving every rise and fall
The sun will make and I will take
Breath to be sure of this
In the end
All will be forgiven when
Surrender rises high and I
Gave what I came to give
Say it now because you never know

Devil may cry devil may care
Distiller's got a scream
And now I know just why
When she's movin' air
Can you feel the voltage
This is my time
California skies
Got room to spare
This is my time

Take it outside
Take it out there
Seems to me like
All the world gets high
When you take a dare
In the final moment
This is my time

Brain of J.
Pearl Jam

Who's got the brain of JFK?
What's it mean to us now, yeah?
Oh, it's hard to juge but
I can tell ya this is no lie

The Whole world will be different soon
The whole world will be relieved
The Whole world will be different soon
The whole world will be relieved

You, you been taught, whipped into shape
Now they've got you in line
Stand behind the stripes
That will be yours; so give it good mind

The Whole world will be different soon
The whole world will be relieved
The Whole world will be different soon
The whole world will be relieved

(Slow Part)
Lend my name
The name they gave me
The name I'm letting go..

The Whole world will be different soon
The whole world will be relieved
The Whole world will be different soon
The whole world will be relieved

The whole world will be different
The whole world will be relieved
The Whole world will be different soon
SOON!

Dissident
Pearl Jam

She nursed him there, ooh, over a night
I wasn't so sure she wanted him to stay
What to say...what to say
But soon she was down, soon he was low
At a quarter past...a holy no...
She had to turn around

When she couldn't hold, oh...she folded...
A dissident is here
Escape is never, the safest path
Oh, a dissident, a dissident is here

And to this day, she's glided on
Always home but so far away
Like a word misplaced
Nothing said, what a waste
When she had contact...with the conflict...
There was meaning, but she sold him to the state
She had to turn around

When she couldn't hold...she folded...
A dissident is here
Escape is never, the safest path
Oh, a dissident, a dissident is here, oh...oh...oh...

She gave him away when she couldn't hold...no...she folded...
A dissident is here
Escape is never, the safest path
Oh, a dissident, a dissident is here, oh...
Couldn't hold on...she couldn't hold...no...she folded...
A dissident is here
Escape is never the safest place, oh...
A dissident is here

Pearl Jam

What the fuck is this world
Running to, you didn't
Leave a message, at least I
Coulda' learned your voice one last time
Daily minefield, this could
Be my time by you?
Would you hit me?
Would you hit me?
Oh oh oh...oh whoa whoa...ow...

All the bills go by, and
Initiatives are taken up
By the middle, there ain't gonna be any middle any more
And the cross I'm bearing home
Ain't indicative of my place
Left the porch
Left the porch
Oh oh oh...
Hear my name, take a good look
This could be the day
Hold my hand, walk beside me
I just need to say...

Hear my name, take a good look
This could be the day
Hold my hand, lie beside me
I just need to say
I could not take a-just one day
I know when I would not ever touch you
Hold you...feel you...ever hold...never again...
Yeah

Mankind
Pearl Jam sung by Stoner :D

You'll be goin' out with radio
Goin' out with disco
Goin' out like bacchanal

I'll be goin' out with telephone
Goin' out alone
To the radar zone

It's all just inadvertent imitation, and I don't mean mine
It's all across this nation
If it's just inadvertent simulation, a pattern in all mankind
What's got the whole world fakin' it?

I'll be playing with my magazine
Usin' up my listerine
Like ovaltine

And you'll be dippin' in your battleship
For the latest tip
For the latest drain

It's all just inadvertent imitation, and I don't mean mine
It's all across this nation
If it's just inadvertent simulation, a pattern in all mankind
What's got the whole world fakin' it?

It's all just inadvertent imitation, a pattern in all mankind
What's got the whole world fakin' it?
What's got the whole world fakin'
What's got the whole world fakin'
What's got the whole world fakin'
What's got the whole world fakin'
What's got the whole world fakin' it, yeah

Neil Young-My My, Hey Hey (Into The Black)
My my, hey hey
Rock and roll is here to stay
Its better to burn out
Than to fade away
My my, hey hey.

Out of the blue and into the black
They give you this, but you pay for that
And once youre gone, you can never come back
When youre out of the blue and into the black.

The king is gone but hes not forgotten
This is the story of a johnny rotten
Its better to burn out than it is to rust
The king is gone but hes not forgotten.

Hey hey, my my
Rock and roll can never die
Theres more to the picture
Than meets the eye.
Hey hey, my my.
