The Future, by Leonard Cohen

Give me back my broken night
my mirrored room, my secret life
it's lonely here,
there's no one left to torture
Give me absolute control
over every living soul,
and lie beside me, baby, that's an order!

Give me crack and anal sex
Take the only tree that's left
and stuff it up the hole
in your culture
Give me back the Berlin Wall
give me Stalin, and St. Paul
I've seen the future, brother: it is murder.

Things are going to slide in all directions
Wont be nothing
Nothing you can measure anymore
The blizzard of the world
has crossed the threshold
and it has overturned
the order of the soul
When they said REPENT! REPENT!
I wonder what they meant

You don't know me from the wind
you never will, you never did
I'm the little jew
who wrote the bible
I've seen the nations rise and fall
I've heard their stories, heard them all
but love's the only engine of survival
Your servant, here, he has been told
to say it clear, to say it cold:
It's over, it ain't going
any further
And now the wheels of heaven stop
you feel the devil's riding crop
Get ready for the future:
it is murder.

Things are going to slide in all directions...

There'll be the breaking of the ancient
western code
Your private life will suddenly explode
There'll be phantoms
there'll be fires on the road
and the white man dancing
You'll see the woman
hanging upside down
her features covered by her fallen gown
and all the lousy little poets
coming round
trying to sound like Charlie Manson.
(the white man dancing)

Give me back the Berlin Wall
give me Stalin, and St. Paul
Give me Christ
or give me Hiroshima
Destroy another fetus now  
We don't like children anyhow
I've seen the future, baby:
it is murder.

Heart-Shaped Box By: Nirvana

She eyes me like a pisces when I am weak
I've been locked inside your Heart-Shaped box for weeks
I've been drawn into your magnet tar-pit trap
I wish I could eat your cancer when you turn black

Hey! Wait!
I've got a new complaint
Forever in debt to your priceless advice
Hey! Wait!
I've got a new complaint
Forever in debt to your priceless advice
Hey! Wait!
I've got a new complaint
Forever in debt to your priceless advice
Your advice

Meat-eating orchids forgive no one just yet
Cut myself on angel's hair and baby's breath
Broken hymen of your highness I'm left black
Throw down your umbilical noose so I can climb right back

Hey! Wait!
I've got a new complaint
Forever in debt to your priceless advice
Hey! Wait!
I've got a new complaint
Forever in debt to your priceless advice
Hey! Wait!
I've got a new complaint
Forever in debt to your priceless advice
Your advice

She eyes me like a pisces when I am weak
I've been locked inside your Heart-Shaped box for weeks
I've been drawn into your magnet tar-pit trap
I wish I could eat your cancer when you turn black

Hey! Wait!
I've got a new complaint
Forever in debt to your priceless advice
Hey! Wait!
I've got a new complaint
Forever in debt to your priceless advice
Hey! Wait!
I've got a new complaint
Forever in debt to your priceless advice
Your advice
Your advice
Your advice...

It's 3:18, mouth tastes like the corpse of every pregnant teen,
The minutes are hours, the hours are days,
I feel infected by your presence, you speak in tounges,
I smell the lies dancing on your blackened lungs,


I whispered in her ear:
Fear me dear, for I am Death,
I'll take your hope, your dreams, your love,
Till there's nothing left

I whispered in her ear:
You better fear me dear, for I am Death,
And I'll take that shit you call a life,
In a single fucking breath


I'll take your hope,
I'll take your fucking dreams,
I'll take your love,
I'll take everything you fucking bitch,

I'll steal the diamonds from your eyes,
I'll turn your promises into lies,
I'll steal the diamonds from your eyes,
I'll turn your promises into lies,


It's 3:18, mouth tastes like the corpse of every pregnant teen,
The hours are days, the days are dead,
I feel infected by your presence, you speak in tounges,
I smell the lies dancing on your blackened lungs,

I hear the fear in your voice, but you shouldn't feel a thing,
Your life's already worse than any pain that I could bring,
That I could bring,
That I could bring,

I could make it December every day,
But you're so blind, it may as well be May,


And I whispered in her ear:
You better fear me dear, for this is Death
And I whispered in her ear:
Fear me, 'cause I am Death

One more time,

I whispered in her ear:
Fear me dear, for I am Death,
I'll take everything you ever loved

I whispered in her ear:
You better fear me, for I am Death.
For I am Death.
For I am Death

BITCH.

"Insanity" by Oingo Boingo
                          (just last 20 lines -  
                           all the lines here:http://tiny.cc/OingoInsanity )


I'd love to take you home with me, I'd love to tuck you in
I wish I could protect you from the wages of our sin
I'd love to hear you scream tonight, I'd love to hear you cry
Protect you from the madness that is raining from the sky

Let's imitate reality
Let's strive for mediocrity
Let's make believe we're all the same
Let's sanitize our little brains

I'd love to take you home with me and tuck you into bed
I'd love to see what makes you tick inside your pretty head
I wish that I could keep you in a precious Chinese box
On Sundays I would pray for you so it would never stop
I'd love to hear you laugh tonight, I'd love to hear you weep
I'd love to listen to you while you're screaming in your sleep
I'd love to soothe you with my voice and take your hand in mine
I'd love to take you past the stars and out of reach of time
I'd love to see inside your mind and tear it all apart
To cut you open with a knife and find your sacred heart
I'd love to take your satin dolls and tear them all to shreds
I'd love to mess your pretty hair, I'd love to see you dead.

Guns'n'Roses - Street of dreams

All the love in the world
Couldn't save you
All the innocence inside
You know I tried so hard to make you
Oh, to make you change your mind

And it hurts too much to see you
And how you left yourself behind
You know I wouldn't want to be you
Now there's a hell I can't describe

So now I wander through my days
And try to find my ways
To the feelings that I felt
I saved for you and no one else
And though as long as this road seems
I know it's called the street of dreams
But that's not stardust on my feet
It leaves a taste that's bittersweet
That's called the blues

I don't know just what I should do
Everywhere I go I see you
Though it's what you planned
This much is true
What I thought was beautiful
Don't live inside of you
Anymore

I don't know just what I should do
Everywhere I go I see you
Though it's what you planned
This much is true
What I thought was beautiful
Don't live inside of you
Anymore

What this means to me
Is more than I know you believe
What I thought of you now
Has I thought that was true before
Were lies I couldn't see
What I thought was beautiful is only memories

Oh oh oh
What'd I tell you
Oh oh oh
That's
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
Inside of you

----- Or

Shinedown - 45

Send away for a priceless gift
One not subtle, one not on the list
Send away for a perfect world
One not simply, so absurd
In these times of doing what you're told
Keep these feelings, no one knows
What ever happened to the young man's heart
Swallowed by pain, as he slowly fell apart

And I'm staring down the barrel of a 45,
I'm swimming through the ashes of another life
There's no real reason to accept the way things have changed
Staring down the barrel of a 45

Send a message to the unborn child
Keep your eyes open for a while
In a box high up on the shelf, left for you, no one else
There's a piece of a puzzle known as life
Wrapped in guilt, sealed up tight

What ever happened to the young man's heart
Swallowed by pain, as he slowly fell apart

[CHORUS]

Everyone's pointing their fingers
Always condemning me
And nobody knows what I believe
I believe

[CHORUS]

Meet Me On The Moon Phyllis Hyman

Meet me on the moon
Soon as you can
In the middle of the sky
You and I
Riding on a cloud
Soft as you please
We can sail upon the breeze
To the everlasting moment of love

Oh, I feel your symphony
St strong and so pure
It echoes on through me
I am so sure
That we were meant to be here
Sharing this love
We share

Meet me on the moon
Oh, please don't be late
You know how I hate to wait
'Cause you're so great
Fly into my love
That's what I need
So my spirit can be free
In the everlasting moment of love

Oh, I feel your symphony
So strong and so pure
It echoes on through me
I am so sure
That we were meant to be here
Sharing this love
We share

You'll be my love
And I'll be yours, too
As long as the sun wants a heaven
Tell me you'll be my love
Oh, here's what we'll do
We'll skywrite our love
Through the heavens
The echoes of your love
Will sing through our lives
Forever
Oooo...forever

Oh, I feel your symphony
So strong and so pure
It echoes on through me
I am so sure
That we were meant to be here
Sharing this love
We share

Meet me...
Meet...me on the moon
You'll be my love
And I'll be yours, too
Oo...Oo...
In the middle of the sky
In the middle of oo...heaven
You and I...Oh
Feel your symphony
Deep inside of me
Come on and be with me
Ha! Ha!
Meet me on...On the moon
Fly into my love
That's what I need
So my spirit
Spirit can be free
Meet me on...

Had to add this one.  Certainly autobiographical.  A story that changed my life 4 real!!!!

"Twenty Years (Neva' Thought I'd C U Again)"
(A. McLeod III )

Verse 1

Over 20 years ago you went away
No matter how much I cried there was nothing else to say
You said to me that we’d always be friends
But I knew I’d never see you again

Verse 2

Years have gone by, I’ve found another life
I’ve got two kids, a car and I've got a lovely wife , yeah.
Down in my heart I’ll hold to you dear friend
Wishing one day that I’ll see you again.

Verse 3

Riding down the road one day, my cell phone rings
Business and appointments-the same ole same-o-thing
Clicked on the send just like I always do
And on the the other end, it was you

Chorus 1

Oh why, oh why must my life be this way
You took my heart girl on a cold and lonely day
I just wanted to die; yeah, I wanted my life to end
‘Cuz I knew I’d never see you again
Verse 4

Twenty years today girl; This can’t be true
I’m only inches now from touching you, yeah
I don’t want to do wrong baby-please understand
In my heart I’ve always been your man
(Man, man, man, man)

Chorus 2

Oh why oh why must my life be this way
I don’t want to hurt nobody but I love you anyway
And it’s this feelin that I’ll hold till my life’s end
And I never thought I’d see you again, gain gain gain..........

Oh why oh why must my life be this way
You stole my heart girl and I want it back to stay
I’m gonna’ wrap my arms around you my long lost friend Cause I never thought I’d see you again...

i have alot <3

The island bathes in the sun's bright rays
Distant hills wear a shroud of grey
A lonely breeze whispers in the trees
Sole witness to history

Fleeting memories rise
From the shadows of my mind
Sing "nonomori" - endless corridors
Say "nonomori" - hopeless warriors
You were there
You were there

Am I forever dreaming
How to define the way I'm feeling

You were there
Countless visions they haunt me in my sleep
You were there
Though forgotten all promises we keep

Slaves to our destiny
I recall a melody
Sing "nonomori" - seasons lit with gold
Say "nonomori" - legends yet untold
You were there
You were there

Happiness follows sorrow
Only believing in tomorrow

You were there
Countless visions they haunt me in my sleep
You were there
Though forgotten all promises we keep

The island bathes in the sun's bright rays
Distant hills wear a shroud of grey
A lonely breeze whispers in the trees
Sole key to this mystery



: ico- you were there (youtube it)

Bloodflower by Draconian(Doom/Gothic metal band)

I've made a good living by dying;
Endless wait, grey solace ruling my mind
Constrained by time and drained by the cold,
Still I found myself shivering under the rising sun

You are the star, you are the moon
You are the soil where shadows bloom
Casting a light which brings me peace
Where the caverns of death will freeze

The flower never grew
But I love you just the same
Even though like a bird you flew
I will love you just the same

I am the blood; A fire in your soul...
And I will grow in landscapes so cold

Oh, how I feel you in every single detail,
As you lurk inside my troubled dreams
There is no hope as long we walk this Earth,
But you should know my universe screams,
It screams for you

I cry for you!

The flower never grew
But I love you just the same
Even though like a bird you flew
I will love you just the same

on from here walkin dreams awake
i think not i think not
the sky comes king blown in every direction
and of no country
i am straw

it is no mystery
i know my way from here

iron sharpens iron
crooked wooden and peacock black
i have your feathers
slung across my back
i'm not the only one
to help you down the hill
my blue knuckles do as they will

it is no mystery
i know my way from here
it is no mystery
i know my way from here

one as precious as the other
they go with me
today i am not a false conscience
a tyrant
angels line my pockets dear
i walk a hutterite mile
look at me this once
put an eye to my step
look and furrow
its only misery its only ankle deep

it is no mystery
i know my way from here
it is no mystery
i know my way from here

God Knows
Wendee Lee (Official english dub)

Blazing on by
There’s nothing more than I can do
I’m sorry that
I’ll never be with you again!
Even though
My heavy heart is parched with pain
I know somehow
Your sorrow’s something I won’t see…
It’s my life
I’m moving on I’m never going back there
With you just turned away and leave me on the lonely rail…
God knows that I will follow you if that is what you wanted
Take me into all your darkest shadows
And you’ll see that I’m even stronger than you could know
God knows that I am standing here and you could disappear
Slipping right over the edge of the future
If I had my way we’d be together forever
Eternally God bless…
The way you’re standing there
I feel as though we’re almost one again
And yet we’re miles apart in town
Beneath the pale blue moon
I see your eyes are glistening with so much love!!
It’s tearing you apart to be here!!!
You know it!
God knows it!
God knows that I will follow you if that is what you wanted
Take me into all your darkest shadows
And you’ll see that I’m even stronger than you could know
God knows that I am standing here and you could disappear
Slipping right over the edge of the future
If I had my way we’d be together forever
Eternally God bless…

everything about you is how I'd want to be
your freedom comes naturally
everything about you resonates happiness
now I won't settle for less

give me all the peace and joy in your mind

everything about you pains my envying
your soul can't hate anything
everything about you is so easy to love
they're watching you from above

'Cause I've been where I have been
An I've seen what I have seen
I put the pen to the paper
'Cause it's all a part of me  

From the song don't damn me by Guns N Roses

it defines me and my poetry

Dead Memories by SlipKnoT

Sitting in the dark, I can't forget
Even now, I realize the time I'll never get
Another story of the bitter pills of fate
I can't go back again, I can't go back again

But you asked me to love you and I did
Traded my emotions for a contract to commit
And when I got away I only got so far
The other me is dead, I hear his voice inside my head

And we were never alive and we won't be born again
But I'll never survive with dead memories in my heart
Dead memories in my heart
Dead memories in my heart

You told me to love you and I did
Tied my soul into a knot and got me to submit
So when I got away I only kept my scars
The other me is gone now I don't know where I belong

And we were never alive and we won't be born again
But I'll never survive with dead memories in my heart
Dead memories in my heart
Dead memories in my heart
Dead memories in my heart

Dead visions in your name
Dead fingers in my veins

Dead memories in my heart
Dead memories in my heart
Dead memories in my heart
Dead memories in my heart

Adam and The Ants - Goody Two Shoes.

With the heartbreak open
so much you can't hide.
Put on a little makeup, makeup
Make sure they get your good side, good side

If the words unspoken
Get stuck in your throat
Send a treasure token, token
Write it on a pound note, pound note.

Don't drink, don't smoke - What do you do?
Don't drink, don't smoke - What do you do?
Subtle innuends follow
there must be something inside, he's hiding.

We don't follow fashion
that would be a joke.
You know we're going to set them, set them
So everyone can take note, take note.

When they saw you kneeling
crying words that you mean
opening their eyeballs, eyeballs
pretending that you're Al Green, Al Green.

No one's gonna tell me
What's wrong or what's right
Or tell me who to eat with - sleep with.
Or that I've won the big fight, big fight.

Look out or they'll tell you
You're a "Superstar"
Two weeks and you're an all time legend
I think the games have gone much too far.

If the words unspoken
Get stuck in your throat
Send a treasure token, token
Write it on a pound note, pound note.

Don't drink, don't smoke - What do you do?
Don't drink, don't smoke - What do you do?
There must be something inside.
