    Runaway Train
    by Soul Asylum

    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

    And everything seems cut and dry
    Day and night, earth and sky
    Somehow I just don't believe it

    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

    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 going back
    Wrong way on a one way track
    Seems like I should be getting somewhere
    Somehow I'm neither here no there

    Runaway train never comin' back
    Runaway train tearin' up the track
    Runaway train burnin' in my veins
    Runaway but it always seems the same
    "The issue is there are still many people out there that use religion as a crutch for bigotry and hate. Like Ben."
    Ben Kenobi: "That means I'm doing something right. "

      Yay DM! Two of my fave songs in one go!
      Tracy Chapman was simply posted because I bought her greatest hits album yesterday. Someone explain what FFZ is???

      I Love You Always Forever by Donna Lewis

      Feels like
      I'm standing in a timeless dream
      of light mists of pale amber rose
      Feels like I'm lost in a deep cloud
      of heavenly scent touching
      discovering you.

      Those days of warm rains
      come rushing back to me
      miles of windless summer night air
      Secret moments shared
      in the heat of the afternoon
      out of the stillness
      soft spoken words

      say it say it again

      I love you always forever
      near and far closer together
      everywhere I will be with you
      everything I will do for you

      You've got the most unbelievable
      blue eyes I've ever seen
      You've got me almost melting away
      As we lay there under blue sky
      with pure white stars
      exotic sweetness a magical time

      say it say it again

      Say you'll love love me forever
      never stop never whatever
      near and far and always
      and everywhere and everything
      "Love the earth and sun and animals, despise riches, give alms to every one that asks, stand up for the stupid and crazy, devote your income and labor to others, hate tyrants, argue not concerning God, have patience and indulgence toward the people, take off your hat to nothing known or unknown . . . reexamine all you have been told at school or church or in any book, dismiss whatever insults your own soul, and your very flesh shall be a great poem and have the richest fluency" - Walt Whitman

        Always It's You
        - Everly Brothers


        When I feel down hearted
        when I'm feeling blue
        when I'm low and lonely
        who do I turn to
        It's you
        always it's you

        When I'm dreaming day dreaming
        who comes into view
        who shares all my day dreams
        who makes them come true
        It's you
        always it's you

        When I feel like smiling your the reason why
        If I ever lost you I'd cry and cry
        Oh hold me close my true love
        kiss me tenderly
        There is only one love
        one alone for me
        It's you
        always it's you

          Song for the left wing Eurocom majority:

          **** AUTHORITY by Pennywise

          someday you gotta find another way you better right your mind and live by what you say today is just another day unless you set your sights and try to find a way

          i say **** authority silent majority raised by the system now it's time to rise against them we're sick of your treason sick of your lies **** no we won't listen we're gonna open your eyes frustration domination feel the rage of a new generation we're living we're dying and we're never gonna stop trying

          you know the time is right to take control we got to take offense against the status quo no way not gonna stand for it today fight for your rights it's time we had our say

            Perhaps Love
            by Placido Domingo and John Denver


            Perhaps love is like a resting place
            A shelter from the storm
            It exists to give you comfort
            It's there to keep you warm
            And in those times of trouble
            When you are most alone
            The memory of love will bring you home

            Perhaps love is like a window
            Perhaps an open door
            It invites you to come closer
            It wants to show you more
            And even if you lose yourself
            And don't know what to do
            The memory of love will see you through

            ** Oh ! Love to some is like a cloud
            To some as strong as steel
            For some a way of living
            For some a way to feel
            And some say love is holding on
            And some say let it go
            And some say love is everything
            Some say they don't know

            Perhaps love is like the ocean
            Full of conflicts , full of pain
            Like a fire when it's cold outside
            Thunder when it rains
            If I should live forever
            And all my dreams come true
            My memory of love will be of you
            "If you obey all the rules, you miss all the fun." -Katherine Hepburn

              SMAC: well.i'm assuming it's not tool.lol. i liek that DL song too.

              Burnout by Greenday

              I declare I don't care no more
              I'm burning up and out and growing bored
              In my smoked out boring room
              My hair is ****ging in my eyes
              Dragging my feet to hit the street tonight
              To drive along these **** town lights

              I'm not growing up, I'm just burnin out
              And I stepped in line to walk amongst the dead

              oh Apathy has rained on me
              Now I'm feeling like a soggy dream
              So close to drowning but I don't mind
              I've lived in this mental cave
              Throw my emotions in the grave
              Hell, who needs them anyway

              I'm not growing up I'm just burnin out
              And I stepped in line to walk amongst the dead.

              All by Myself by Greenday

              I was alone
              I was all by myself
              No one was looking
              I was thinking of you
              And did I mension
              I was all by myself
              All by myself
              All by myself

              Pretty hair
              Such wonderful times
              When I'm all by myself
              All by myself

              Minority by Greenday

              I want to be the minority
              i don't need your authority
              down with the moral majority
              Cause i want to be the minority

              I pledge alligence to the underworld
              One nation under dog
              there of which I stand alone
              a face in the crowd
              unsung against the mould
              with out a doubt singled out
              the only way i know cause

              I want to be the minority
              i don't need your authority
              down with the moral majority
              Cause i want to be the minority

              stepped out of the line
              like a sheep runs from the herd
              marching out of time
              to my own beat now
              the only way i know

              one light, one mind
              flashing in the dark
              blinded by the silence of a thousand broken hearts
              for crying out loud
              she screamed unto me
              a free for all **** 'em all
              you and your insight

              cause I want to be the minority
              i don't need your authority
              down with the moral majority
              Cause i want to be the minority

              one light, one mind
              flashing in the dark
              blinded by the silence of a thousand broken hearts
              for crying out loud she screamed unto me
              a free for all **** 'em all
              you and your insight

              cause I want to be the minority
              i don't need your authority
              down with the moral majority
              Cause i want to be the minority...
              the minority...the minority...the minority
              i want to be the minority

                  ThankYou
                  by Dido

                  My tea's gone cold I'm wondering why I
                  got out of bed at all
                  The morning rain clouds up my window
                  and I can't see at all
                  And even if I could it'd all be gray
                  but your picture on my wall
                  It reminds me
                  that its not so bad, its not so bad...

                  I drank too much last night
                  Got bills to pay
                  My head just feels in pain
                  I missed the the bus and there'll be hell to pay
                  I'm late for work again
                  and even if I was there
                  they'd all imply
                  that I might not last the day
                  And then you call me
                  And its not so bad, its not so bad

                  I want to thank you
                  for giving me the best day of my life
                  Oh, just to be with you
                  is giving me the best day of my life

                  And now I'm home from work at last
                  and I'm soaking through and through
                  And then you handed me a towel
                  and all I see is you
                  and even if my house fell down now
                  I wouldn't have a clue
                  because you're near, and

                  I want to thank you
                  for giving me the best day of my life
                  Oh, just to be with you
                  is giving me the best day of my life

                    Duvet by Boa

                    And you don't seem to understand
                    A shame you seemed an honest man
                    And all the fears you hold so dear
                    Will turn to whisper in your ear
                    And you know what they say might hurt you
                    And you know that it means so much
                    And you don't even feel a thing

                    I am falling, I am fading,
                    I have lost it all

                    And you don't seem the lying kind
                    A shame that I can read your mind
                    And all the things that I read there
                    Candle-lit smile that we both share
                    And you know I don't mean to hurt you
                    But you know that it means so much
                    And you don't even feel a thing

                    I am falling, I am fading, I am drowning,
                    Help me to breathe
                    I am hurting, I have lost it all
                    I am losing
                    Help me to breathe

                      dm, the number of variations on Minority's lyrics I've read...

                      Queen - Let Us Cling Together (Teo Torriatte)

                      When I'm gone
                      No need to wonder if I ever think of you
                      The same moon shines
                      The same wind blows
                      For both of us, and time is but a paper moon...
                      Be not gone

                      Though I'm gone
                      It's just as though I hold the flower that touches you
                      A new life grows
                      The blossom knows
                      There's no one else could warm my heart as much as you...
                      Be not gone

                      Let us cling together as the years go by
                      Oh my love, my love
                      In the quiet of the night
                      Let our candle always burn
                      Let us never lose the lessons we have learned

                      Teo torriatte konomama iko
                      Aisuruhito yo
                      Shizukana yoi ni
                      Hikario tomoshi
                      Itoshiki oshieo idaki

                      Hear my song
                      Still think of me the way you've come to think of me
                      The nights grow long
                      But dreams live on
                      Just close your pretty eyes and you can be with me...
                      Dream on

                      Teo torriatte konomama iko
                      Aisuruhito yo
                      Shizukana yoi ni
                      Hikario tomoshi
                      Itoshiki oshieo idaki

                      When I'm gone
                      They'll say we're all fools and we don't understand
                      Oh be strong
                      Don't turn your heart
                      We're all
                      You're all
                      For all
                      For always

                      Let us cling together as the years go by
                      Oh my love, my love
                      In the quiet of the night
                      Let our candle always burn
                      Let us never lose the lessons we have learned
                      Concrete, Abstract, or Squoingy?

                        lyrics. Axén



                        Am I too corrosive
                        Am I just too weak
                        Am I too contagious
                        Am I just a freak

                        I wish that I could hold you
                        I wish that I could hate you
                        I wish that I could hold you one more time, just one more time

                        Am I what you made me
                        Am I what you'll reap
                        Am I all you dreamed of
                        or am I just a creep

                        I wish that I could hold you
                        I wish that I could hate you
                        I wish that I could hold you one more time, just one more time

                        I still see you in my mind
                        I wish that I could have more time
                        I know that it will be just fine

                        All is well now, no need to cry,

                        no need to cry...

                        I wish that I could hold you
                        I wish that I could hate you
                        I wish that I could hold you one more time, just one more time

                        I wish that I could hold you
                        I wish that I could hate you
                        I wish that I could hold you one more time, just one more time

                        just one more time, just one more time........

                          music. Kjellberg, Axén

                          lyrics. Axén



                          And so I can't ignore, my heart is bruised and sore
                          My sanctuary has been raked, been raked.
                          My soul is colored red, from all the love I bled
                          My crucifixion is complete, complete.

                          Now I need a substitute for.

                          the love that you gave
                          now I just can't be saved
                          and there is no salvation for me.
                          My sin was to touch but I wanted it too much
                          Now I know that I've fallen from grace.

                          No matter how I try, I still can't justify
                          my absolution is denied, denied.
                          And so I'm left to burn, my body craves and yearns
                          the beast inside me is alive, alive.

                          Now I need a substitute for.

                          the love that you gave
                          now I just can't be saved
                          and there is no salvation for me.
                          My sin was to touch but I wanted it too much
                          Now I know that I've fallen from grace.

                          And so I'm left to burn, my body craves and yearns
                          my absolution is denied.

                          the love that you gave
                          now I just can't be saved
                          and there is no salvation for me.
                          My sin was to touch but I wanted it too much
                          Now I know that I've fallen from grace.
                          Which side are we on? We're on the side of the demons, Chief. We are evil men in the gardens of paradise, sent by the forces of death to spread devastation and destruction wherever we go. I'm surprised you didn't know that. --Saul Tigh

                            And the sky was made of amethyst
                            and all the stars look just like little fish
                            you should learn when to go
                            you should learn how to say no

                            well mine is forever

                            when they get what they want they never want it again

                            hey, i'm the one with no soul
                            one above and one below

                            go on, take everything take everything i want you to

                            i told you from the start just how this would end
                            when i get what i want i never want it again

                            go on, take everything take everyting i want you to
                            go on, take everything, take everything i want you to
                            go on, take everything, take everything i want you to

                            How do I love you
                            Well let me see
                            I love you like a lyric loves a melody
                            Baby, completely wrapped up in you.

                            How do I need you
                            Well can't you tell
                            I need you like a penny needs a wishing well
                            Baby, completely wrapped up in you.

                            Every now and then
                            When the world that we're living in's crazy
                            You gladly hold me and carry me through
                            No one in the world's ever done what you did for me
                            And I'd be sad and lonely if there were no you

                            How do I love you
                            Well count the ways
                            There ain't no number high enough to end this phrase
                            Baby, completely wrapped up in you.

                            Every now and then

                            And I'd be sad and lonely if there were no you

                              That Woman's Got me Drinking

                              Shane MacGowan

                              For seven long years
                              She helped me spend my dough
                              Now I take her out
                              But she don't wanna know
                              That woman's got me drinking
                              Look at the state I'm in
                              Give me one, two, three, four, five, six,
                              seven, eight, nine, ten bottles of gin

                              That woman's got me drinking
                              We used to have some fun
                              Now shrinks and astrologers
                              Have got me on the run
                              That woman's got me drinking
                              Look at the state I'm in
                              Give me one, two, three, four, five, six,
                              seven, eight, nine, ten bottles of gin

                              She said she'd always love me
                              She said I'd be the one
                              Now look at the way she treats me
                              Just like a piece of scum
                              That woman's got me drinking
                              Look at the state I'm in
                              Give me one, two, three, four, five, six,
                              seven, eight, nine, ten bottles of gin

                              If I had the guts to do it
                              I'd take a long goodbye
                              Instead I'll love her long and hard
                              And love her 'til I die
                              That woman's got me drinking
                              Look at the state I'm in
                              Give me one, two, three, four, five, six,
                              seven, eight, nine, ten bottles of gin

                              Bottles of gin, bottles of gin, bottles of gin,
                              One, two, three, four, five, six, seven,
                              eight, nine, ten bottles of gin

                                She's smiling like heaven is down on earth
                                Sun is shining so bright it hurts
                                All her wishes have finally come true
                                Her heart is weeping. Happiness is killing her.
                                She'll be right here in my arms
                                So in Love
                                She'll be right here in these arms
                                She can't let go
                                So hard she's trying
                                But her heart won't turn to stone...oh no
                                She keeps on crying
                                But I won't leave her alone
                                She'll never be alone
                                She'll be right here in my arms
                                So in Love
                                She'll be right here in these arms
                                She can't let go
