Like a Stone- Audioslave ( What I think it says)
Posted: 1/29/2006 9:44:27 AM
Over cobweb
after lonely love room full of emptyness
By a freeway
I confess I was lost in the pages
Far above
full of death reading I will die alone
And if the dust
will lay to rest anywhere we wonder

Build your house
Along to be
Will'd I roam
Patiently
I wait for you there
Like a stone
I'll wait for you there
Alone.......

You know my death bed
I will pray to the Gods and the Angels
Like a Pagan
To will the one
Who will'ding me into Heaven
To a place
I recall I was there so long ago
The sky was bruised
the world was black and they led me home

build your house
Along to be
Will'd I roam
Patiently
I wait for you there
Like a Stone
I'll wait for you there
Alone......Alone....................


Alone I wait
until the day work's gone
And I sat in regret for
of all the things I've done
For all that I've blessed
And all that I've wronged
And dreams will fill my death
Im a one and along

Build your house
Along to be
Will'd I roam
Patiently
I wait for you there
Like A Stone
I wait for you there
ALONE.........AAAALLLLOOOOONEEEEEE............

Runaway Train ~ Soul Asylum
Posted: 1/29/2006 10:20:53 AM
Call you up in the middle of the night
Like a firefly without a light
You were there like a slow torch burning
I was a key that could use a little turning

So tired that I couldn't even sleep
So many secrets I couldn't keep
Promised myself I wouldn't weep
One more promise I couldn't keep

It seems no one can help me now
I'm in too deep
There's no way out
This time I have really led myself astray

Runaway train never going back
Wrong way on a one way track
Seems like I should be getting somewhere
Somehow I'm neither here no there

Can you help me remember how to smile
Make it somehow all seem worthwhile
How on earth did I get so jaded
Life's mystery seems so faded

I can go where no one else can go
I know what no one else knows
Here I am just drownin' in the rain
With a ticket for a runaway train

Everything is cut and dry
Day and night, earth and sky
Somehow I just don't believe it

Bought a ticket for a runaway train
Like a madman laughin' at the rain
Little out of touch, little insane
Just easier than dealing with the pain

Runaway train never comin' back
Runaway train tearin' up the track
Runaway train burnin' in my veins
Runaway but it always seems the same

When I See You Smile- Firehouse/Bad English

Sometimes I wonder
how I'd ever make it through,
through this world without having you.
I just wouldn't have a clue.
'Cause sometimes it seems
like this world is closing in on me,
and there's no way of breaking free, and
then I see you reach for me

Sometimes I want to give up,
wanna give in, I wanna quit the fight,
and then I see you baby,
and everything's alright.
Everything's alright

(Chorus)
When I see you smile
I can face the world
Oh you know I can do anything
When I see you smile
See a ray of light
Oh see it shining right through the rain
When I see you smile
Baby when I see you smile at me.

Oh yeah

Baby there's nothing in this world that could ever do
what the touch of your hand can do
it's like nothing
that I ever knew.

Hey

And when the rain is falling I don't feel it
'Cause you're here with me now I want to answer
baby It's all I'll ever need.
It's all I'll ever need

(Chorus)
When I see you smile
I can face the world
Oh you know I can do anything
When I see you smile
I see a ray of light
Oh I see it shining right through the rain
When I see you smile baby
Baby when I see you smile at me.

Sometimes I want to give up,
I wanna give in, I wanna quit the fight,
then one look at you baby,
and everything's alright.
Hey Everything's alright so right

(Chorus)
When I see you smile
I can face the world
Oh you know I can do anything yeah
When I see you smile
I see a ray of light
Oh I see it shining right through the rain Yeah
When I see you smile
Yeah I can face the world
Oh you know I can do anything now
When I see you smile, oh yeah baby
When I see you smile

Smile at me

this is a song i love its okay i believe but my tommy gun dont by brand new




im heaven sent,
dont you dare forget.
i am all you've ever wanted,
what all the other boys all promised.
sorry i told. i just needed you to know.
i think in decimals and dollars.
i am the cause to all your problems,
shelter from cold. we are never alone.
coordinate brain and mouth.
then ask me whats it like to have
myself so figured out.
i wish i knew..

i hope this song starts a craze.
the kinda song that ignites the airwaves.
the kinda song that makes people glad
to be where they are,
with whoever they're there with.
this is war.
every line is about,
who i dont wanna write about anymore.
hope you come down with something
they cant diagnose, dont have the cure for.
holding on to your grudge.
oh its so hard to have someone to love.
and keeping quiet is hard.
cuz you cant keep a secret
if it never was a secret to start.
at least pretend you didnt wanna get caught..

we're concentrated on falling apart.
we were contenders, we're thowing a fight.
i was just wanna believe, i just wanna believe,
i just wanna believe, in us.

Oh, we're so c-c-c-c-c-controversial.
we are entirely smooth.
we admit to the truth,
we are the best at what we do.
and these are the words you wish you wrote down.
this is the way you wish your voice sounds,
hansome and smart.
oh my tongue's the only muscles on my body
that works harder than my heart.
and its all from watching tv,
and from speeding up my breathing.
wouldnt stop if i could.
oh it hurts to be this good.
your holding on to your grudge.
oh it hurts to always hafta be honest
with the one that you love.
oh, to let it go..

we're concentrated on falling apart.
we were contenders, we're thowing a fight.
i was just wanna believe, i just wanna believe,
i just wanna believe.
we're concentrated on falling apart.
we were contenders, we're thowing a fight.
i was just wanna believe, i just wanna believe,
i just wanna believe, in us.

this is the grace that only we can bestow.
this is the price you pay for loss of control.
this is the break in the bend,
this is the closest of calls.
this is the reason your alone,
this is the reason you fall.

we're concentrated on falling apart.
we were contenders, we're thowing a fight.
i was just wanna believe, i just wanna believe,
i just wanna believe.
we're concentrated on falling apart.
we were contenders, we're thowing a fight.
i was just wanna believe, i just wanna believe,
i just wanna believe, in us.

this is another song from josh groban called remember






Remember, I will still be here
As long as you hold me, in your memory

Remember, when your dreams have ended
Time can be transcended
Just remember me

I am the one star that keeps burning, so brightly,
It is the last light, to fade into the rising sun

I'm with you
Whenever you tell, my story

Remember, I will still be here
As long as you hold me, in your memory
Remember me

I am the one voice in the cold wind, that whispers
And if you listen, you'll hear me call across the sky

As long as I still can reach out, and touch you
Then I will never die

Remember, I'll never leave you
If you will only
Remember me

Remember me...

Remember, I will still be here
As long as you hold me
In your memory

Remember, when your dreams have ended
Time can be transcended
I live forever
Remember me

Remember me
Remember... me...

oOo i found another one this is the theme for hitch hikers guide the the galaxy by joby talbot


So long and thanks for all the fish
So sad that it should come to this
We tried to warn you all but oh dear?

You may not share our intellect
Which might explain your disrespect
For all the natural wonders that
grow around you

So long, so long and thanks
for all the fish

The world's about to be destroyed
There's no point getting all annoyed
Lie back and let the planet dissolve

Despite those nets of tuna fleets
We thought that most of you were sweet
Especially tiny tots and your
pregnant women

So long, so long, so long, so long, so long
So long, so long, so long, so long, so long

So long, so long and thanks
for all the fish

(yeah)

So long and thanks for all the fish
So sad that it should come to this
We tried to warn you all but oh dear?

(oh dear)

Despite those nets of tuna fleets
We thought that most of you were sweet
Especially tiny tots and your
pregnant women

So long, so long, so long, so long, so long
So long, so long, so long, so long, so long

So long, so long and thanks
for all the fish

Audio Slave~Be yourself :)
Posted: 1/29/2006 4:13:32 PM
Someone falls to pieces
sleepin all alone
someone kills the pain
spinning in the silence
to finally drift away
someone gets excited
in a chapel yard
catches a bouquet
another lays a dozen white roses on a grave

to be yourself is all that you can do
to be yourself is all that you can do

someone finds salvation in everyone
and another only fame
someone tries to hide themself
down inside their selfish brain
someone swears his true love
until the end of time
another runs away
separate or united?
healthy or insane?

to be yourself is all that you can do
to be yourself is all that you can do
to be yourself is all that you can do
to be yourself is all that you can do

you can be fading out
and pulled apart
or been in love
every single memory of
could have been faces of love
don't lose any sleep tonight
i'm sure everything will end up alright
you may win love

but to be yourself is all that you can do
to be yourself is all that you can do

Let’s put our heads together and start a new country up
Our father’s father’s father tried, erased the parts he didn’t like
Let’s try to fill it in, bank the quarry river, swim
We knee-skinned it you and me, we knee-skinned that river red


This is where we walked, this is where we swam

Take a picture here, take a souvenir

This land is the land of ours, this river runs red over it
We knee-skinned it you and me, we knee-skinned that river red
And we gathered up our friends, bank the quarry river, swim
We knee-skinned it you and me, underneath the river bed


This is where we walked, this is where we swam

Take a picture here, take a souvenir
Cuyahoga
Cuyahoga, gone

Let’s put our heads together, start a new country up,
Underneath the river bed we burned the river down.
This is where they walked, swam, hunted, danced and sang,
Take a picture here, take a souvenir
Cuyahoga
Cuyahoga, gone

Rewrite the book and rule the pages, saving face, secured in faith
Bury, burn the waste behind you

This land is the land of ours, this river runs red over it
We are not your allies, we can not defend
This is where they walked, this is where they swam
Take a picture here, take a souvenir

Cuyahoga
Cuyahoga, gone
Cuyahoga
Cuyahoga, gone.

Drops of Jupiter :)
Posted: 1/29/2006 5:56:09 PM
Now that she's back in the atmosphere
With drops of Jupiter in her hair, hey, hey
She acts like summer and walks like rain
Reminds me that there's time to change, hey, hey
Since the return from her stay on the moon
She listens like spring and she talks like June, hey, hey

Tell me did you sail across the sun
Did you make it to the Milky Way to see the lights all faded
And that heaven is overrated

Tell me, did you fall for a shooting star
One without a permanent scar
And did you miss me while you were looking at yourself out there

Now that she's back from that soul vacation
Tracing her way through the constellation, hey, hey
She checks out Mozart while she does tae-bo
Reminds me that there's time to grow, hey, hey

Now that she's back in the atmosphere
I'm afraid that she might think of me as plain ol' Jane
Told a story about a man who is too afraid to fly so he never did land

Tell me did the wind sweep you off your feet
Did you finally get the chance to dance along the light of day
And head back to the Milky Way
And tell me, did Venus blow your mind
Was it everything you wanted to find
And did you miss me while you were looking for yourself out there

Can you imagine no love, pride, deep-fried chicken
Your best friend always sticking up for you even when I know you're wrong
Can you imagine no first dance, freeze dried romance five-hour phone conversation
The best soy latte that you ever had . . . and me

Tell me did the wind sweep you off your feet
Did you finally get the chance to dance along the light of day
And head back toward the Milky Way

Repeat 1st Chorus

Well mama told me
When I was young
Come sit beside me
My only son
And listen closely
To what i say
And if you do this
It'll help you
Some sunny day

Ahh! Yeah

Ohh! take your time
Don't live to fast
Troubles will come
And they will pass
You'll find a woman
And you'll find love
And don't forget son
There is someone up above

And be a simple
Kind of man
Ohh! be something
You'l love and understand
Baby be a simple
Kind of man
Ohh wont you do this
For me son if you can

Forget your lust
for the rich man's gold
All that you need

All that I want for you

And be a simple
Kind of man
Ohh! be something
You'll love and understand
Baby be a simple
Kind of man

Ohh! Be something you'll love and understan

Cold Play~:) :)Crests of waves
Posted: 1/29/2006 6:38:35 PM
It could be worse
I could be alone
I could be locked in here on my own
Like a stone that certainly drops
And it never stops
I could be lost
Or I Could be saved
Calling out from beneath the waves
Beaten down by this ocean rain
Never again
Never again

Ohhh, Ohhh
Ohhh, Ohhh

Screaming out from the crests of the waves

It could be worse
It's all sweet
It could be snapped from the jaws of defeat
Like a light lit upon a beach
Where your heart your sleeve
Oh
You want to stop before you begin
You want to sink when you know you could swim
You want to stop before you begin
Never give in
Never give in

Ohhh, Ohhh
Ohhh, Ohhh

Screaming out form the crests of the waves

Nothing matters
Except life and the love you make
Nothing matters
Except life and the love you make
Nothing matters
Except life and the love you make

Except life and the love you make

Screaming out from the crests of the waves

Screaming out from the crests of the waves
When your longing to be saved
Screaming out from the crests of the waves
When your longing to be saved
Screaming out from the crests of the waves

Well the lush separation enfolds you
And the products of wealth
Push you along on the bow wave
Of their spiritless undying selves
And you press On God's waiter
Your last dime
As he hands you the bill
And you spin in the slipstream
Tideless, unreasoning and
You paddle right out of the mess
You paddle right out of the mess

NOTHING ELSE MATTERS


Words and Music by
James Hetfield and Lars Ulrich

So close, no matter how far.
Couldn't be much more from the heart.
Forever trusting who we are.
And nothing else matters.
Never opened myself this way.
Life is ours, we live it our way.
All these words I don't just say.
And nothing else matters.
Trust I seek and I find in you.
Every day for us something new.
Open mind for a different view.
And nothing else matters.
Never cared for what they do.
Never cared for what they know,
oh, but I know.
So close, no matter how far.
Couldn't be much more from the heart.
Forever trusting who we are.
And nothing else matters.
Never cared for what they do.
Never cared for what they know,
oh, but I know.
I never opened myself this way.
Life is ours, we live it our way.
All these words I don't just say.
And nothing else matters.
Trust I seek and I find in you.
Every day for us something new.
Open mind for a different view.
And nothing else matters.
Never cared for what they say.
Never cared for games they play.
Never cared for what they do.
Never cared for what they know,
oh, and I know. Yeah, yeah.

(solo)

So close, no matter how far.
Couldn't be much more from the heart.
Forever trusting who we are.
No, nothing else matters.

Tupelo Honey Van Morrison

You can take all the tea in china
Put it in a big brown bag for me
Sail right around the seven oceans
Drop it straight into the deep blue sea
She’s as sweet as tupelo honey
She’s an angel of the first degree
She’s as sweet as tupelo honey
Just like honey from the bee

You can’t stop us on the road to freedom
You can’t keep us ’cause our eyes can see
Men with insight, men in granite
Knights in armor bent on chivalry
She’s as sweet as tupelo honey
She’s an angel of the first degree
She’s as sweet as tupelo honey
Just like honey from the bee

You can’t stop us on the road to freedom
You can’t stop us ’cause our eyes can see
Men with insight, men in granite
Knights in armor intent on chivalry
She’s as sweet as tupelo honey
She’s an angel of the first degree
She’s as sweet as tupelo honey
Just like honey from the bee

You know she’s alright
You know she’s alright with me
She’s alright, she’s alright (she’s an angel)

You can take all the tea in china
Put it in a big brown bag for me
Sail it right around the seven oceans
Drop it smack dab in the middle of the deep blue sea
Because she’s as sweet as tupelo honey
She’s an angel of the first degree
She’s as sweet as tupelo honey
Just like honey from the bee

She’s as sweet as tupelo honey
She’s an angel of the first degree
She’s as sweet as tupelo honey
Just like the honey, baby, from the bee
She’s my baby, you know she’s alright.....

A posting to the van mailing list may/96 notes the existence of a lost verse to this song, here transcribed from a performance on the van morrison in ireland concert video:



There’s a rose pressed inside a bible
That she reads on the balcony
She’s sweet in slumber and I’ve got her number
For the beginning of the century.

Van list member art siegel comments in nov/97 that I don’t think the rose in the Bible is a true ’lost verse’, but rather one that van added to his live performances years after the origin
Here is, though, a true ’lost verse’ which is in the original sheet music:

I’ll tell a tale of old manhattan
Adirondack bus to go
Standing waiting on my number
And my number’s gonna show.

The dusty springfield cover version on the van morrison songbook cd has a variant of this:

I heard a tale of old manhattan
I’ve never been there but I want to go
Standing waiting on my number
And my number’s gonna show.

Run through the jungle:CCR

Woah!
Thought it was a nightmare,
Lord, it's all so true,
They told me, "Don't go walkin' slow.
The devil's on the loose."

Better run through the jungle,
Better run through the jungle,
Better run through the jungle,
Woa, don't look back to see.

Thought I heard a rumblin'
Callin' to my name,
Two hundred million guns are loaded
Satan cries, "Take aim!"

Better run through the jungle,
Better run through the jungle,
Better run through the jungle,
Woa, don't look back to see.

Over on the mountain
Thunder magic spoke,
"Let the people know my wisdom,
Fill the land with smoke."

Better run through the jungle,
Better run through the jungle,
Better run through the jungle,
Woah, don't look back to see.

Sucker love is heaven sent.
You pucker up, our passion's spent.
My hearts a tart, your body's rent.
My body's broken, yours is bent.

Carve your name into my arm.
Instead of stressed, I lie here charmed.

Sucker love, a box I choose.
No other box I choose to use.
Another love I would abuse,
No circumstances could excuse.

In the shape of things to come.
Too much poison come undone.

Sucker love is known to swing.
Prone to cling and waste these things.
Pucker up for heavens sake.
There's never been so much at stake.

I serve my head up on a plate.
It's only comfort, calling late.

Like the naked leads the blind.
I know I'm selfish, I'm unkind.
Sucker love I always find,
Someone to bruise and leave behind.

All alone in space and time.
There's nothing here but what here's mine.

When the day is long and the night, the night is yours alone,
When you're sure you've had enough of this life, well hang on
Don't let yourself go, 'cause everybody cries and everybody hurts sometimes

Sometimes everything is wrong. Now it's time to sing along
When your day is night alone, (hold on, hold on)
If you feel like letting go, (hold on)
When you think you've had too much of this life, well hang on

'Cause everybody hurts. Take comfort in your friends
Everybody hurts. Don't throw your hand. Oh, no. Don't throw your hand
If you feel like you're alone, no, no, no, you are not alone

If you're on your own in this life, the days and nights are long,
When you think you've had too much of this life to hang on

Well, everybody hurts sometimes,
Everybody cries. And everybody hurts sometimes
And everybody hurts sometimes. So, hold on, hold on
Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on
Everybody hurts. You are not alone

She was standing at the load-in
When the trucks rolled up
She was sniffing all around
Like a half grown female pup
She wasn’t hard to talk to
Looked like she had nowhere to go
So I gave her my pass
So she could get in and see the show

Well I sat her down right next to me
And I got her a beer
While I mixed that sound on stage
So the band could hear
The more I watched her watch them play
The less I could think of to say
And when they walked off stage
The drummer swept that girl away

But rosie you’re all right -- you wear my ring
When you hold me tight -- rosie that’s my thing
When you turn out the light -- I’ve got to hand it to me
Looks like it’s me and you again tonight rosie

Well I guess I might have known from the start
She’d come for a star
Might have told my imagination not to run too far
Of all the times that I’ve been burned
By now you’d think I’d have learned
That it’s who you look like
Not who you are

But rosie you’re all right -- you wear my ring
When you hold me tight -- rosie that’s my thing
When you turn out the light -- I’ve got to hand it to me
Looks like it’s me and you again tonight rosie

The screen door slams
Mary’s dress sways
Like a vision she dances across the porch
As the radio plays
Roy orbison singing for the lonely
Hey that’s me and I want you only
Don’t turn me home again
I just can’t face myself alone again
Don’t run back inside
Darling you know just what I’m here for
So you’re scared and you’re thinking
That maybe we ain’t that young anymore
Show a little faith, there’s magic in the night
You ain’t a beauty, but hey you’re alright
Oh and that’s alright with me

You can hide `neath your covers
And study your pain
Make crosses from your lovers
Throw roses in the rain
Waste your summer praying in vain
For a savior to rise from these streets
Well now I’m no hero
That’s understood
All the redemption I can offer, girl
Is beneath this dirty hood
With a chance to make it good somehow
Hey what else can we do now?
Except roll down the window
And let the wind blow
Back your hair
Well the night’s busting open
These two lanes will take us anywhere
We got one last chance to make it real
To trade in these wings on some wheels
Climb in back
Heaven’s waiting on down the tracks
Oh-oh come take my hand
Riding out tonight to case the promised land
Oh-oh thunder road, oh thunder road oh thunder road
Lying out there like a killer in the sun
Hey I know it’s late we can make it if we run
Oh thunder road, sit tight take hold
Thunder road

Well I got this guitar
And I learned how to make it talk
And my car’s out back
If you’re ready to take that long walk
From your front porch to my front seat
The door’s open but the ride it ain’t free
And I know you’re lonely
For words that I ain’t spoken
But tonight we’ll be free
All the promises’ll be broken
There were ghosts in the eyes
Of all the boys you sent away
They haunt this dusty beach road
In the skeleton frames of burned out chevrolets

They scream your name at night in the street
Your graduation gown lies in rags at their feet
And in the lonely cool before dawn
You hear their engines roaring on
But when you get to the porch they’re gone
On the wind, so mary climb in
It’s a town full of losers
And I’m pulling out of here to win.

When The Night Comes

The offices are emptying their pale-faced wards into the street,
Flickering their strip-light eyes, shivering they readjust their lives
From the air-conditioned heat.
The humdrum and mundane
Is nearly driving them insane.
But you get hooked so quick to anything
Even your chains,
You're crouching in your corner 'til they open up your cage.

Chorus:
And when the night comes
It'll help you disappear
And when the night comes
Forget about the day that brought you here.

Frankie takes the train and makes it home in time to catch the evening news,
Opening a can of beans he learns the world has turned without much help from him.
Hey Frank, why not get drunk tonight?
Hey Frank, I think it'll be alright,
You'll be too far gone to notice when the neighbors start complaining,
But they're used to it by now, every day's the same.

(repeat chorus)

And when the night comes,
He might get on the phone,
She's a stuck-up ****,
But she lives on her own,
And he heard her talking dirty to the girls the other day,
And she knew that he had heard her and she looked "as if to say"
And then later up in marketing while going through the files,
She bent a little too far down, then turned around and smiled.
He got her number,
He got the phone,
He dialed the number,
He heard the tone.
He said "Tonight's the night that I've been waiting for,
Oh I know you've seen me worship you from afar,
And I might tell you that I love you and I will but just for
Tonight, one night, alright tonight."
In his three piece cunning camouflage nobody
can guess what Frankie's thinking,
Last night she said "I don't know if I'm drowning
Maybey it's because I'm sinking."
He said "It'll be okay
I'll get outta here one day"
And she said "Frankie, you're no different from any of the rest,
They've nailed you to that table and chained you to your desk."
But when the night comes....

(repeat chorus)

Train~Meet Virginia
Posted: 1/30/2006 9:23:12 PM
^Everyone here has such great tatse in music:)Kudos kids:)



She doesn’t own a dress, her hair is always a mess
If you catch her stealin, she won’t confess
She’s beautiful
She smokes a pack a day, oh wait, that’s me but anyway
She doesn’t care a thing about that, hey,
She thinks I’m beautiful
Meet virginia
She never compromises, loves babies and surprises
Wears hi-heels when she exercises
Ain’t that beautiful
Meet virginia
Well she wants to be the queen
Then she thinks about her scene
Pulls her hair back as she screams
I don’t really wanna be the queen
Her daddy wrestles alligators, mama works on carburetors
Her brother is a fine mediator for the president
Well here she is again on the phone
Just like me hates to be alone
We just like to sit at home, and rip on the president
Meet virginia
Well she wants to live her life
Then she thinks about her life
Pulls her hair back as she screams
I don’t really wanna live this life
She only drinks coffee at midnight, when the moment is not
Right, her timing is quite-unusual
You see her confidence is tragic, but her intuition magic
And the shape of her body - unusual
Meet virginia-i can’t wait to
Meet virginia-yea
Chorus I & 2
