"Why does my mind blow to bits every time they play that song?
It's just the way that he sings,
not the words that he says, or the band.
Im in love with this soul, it's a meaning that I understand."
Turned on some music to start my day
I lost myself in a familiar song
I closed my eyes and I slipped away

Crispy

"Tell me I'm wrong. Tell me I'm right
Tell me there's nobody else in the world
There will be a knock on your back door"

"There ain't nothing glowin like this skin you're showin and the keys you gave to me"

"soft and warm all the time, make you want it over and over"

Oh yeah, that's good nubbin music
"...it's gonna be great -- I mean me coming back with the band and playing all those hits again"

saki

"It's the art of feeling naked in your clothes"

"but you know, all of this can chaaaaayeenge,
remember the promise as a kid you made."

Chills

Quoteto anyone who wondered
what old jebus meant to me
take him out to go diving
in red patoka sea
the brain melts in the twilight
with the boar and moving trees
your skin looks good in moonlight
and god damn those shaky knees
the fact that my heart's beating
is all the proof you need

Yeah, it seems everyone loves these. With good reason.

But also...

but I know there's someone that loves up above
and wants to fix you a dream.
He wants to sit down and think.
He wants to pour you a drink.
And you wont feel a thing. You wont feel a thing.

"Why's it so great just to wake every day
alive, and by your side?"

from all the evils in the world

>Sunrides and the girl screams, walk high on the I beam

>On this lonely trip the conductor likes your soft brown eyes on his hair.


>My mother held me like a motorcycle so warm, we sang melody.
I will be there when you die!

Hopefully it occurs to me that there's one thing I can't stand
That's the thought of a single day, without your head in my hand.
I know that just now I ain't been showin'
The kind of love you know that I can.
So gimmie a little time and you'll be knowin'
Your good lovin' baby is back on top again.
Why's it surreal when my hands feel they cant roll the jay?

megisnotreal

time for me to be serious about this. lyrics i love:

"Aw if you don't know yourself, how could you ever know me"

"Yes she was a young girl.
Bout the age of 23.
but somehow the lord never smiled down upon her,
so she flew out on a breeze.
Said: "I don't wanna feel a thing, I don't want to feel a thing."

"sorry don't
mean nothin, if sorry's still in bed."


"the fact that my heart's beating
is all the proof you need."


"don't ever lose any of your god-given charm."

"get emotional each time they say your name."

"a good shower head and my right hand
the two best lovers that i ever had."

"and i think my other would
kill me. if she knew what i was about."

"we forgot about love, bu weren't broken-hearted."

"if i was seventeen
i'd really fuck you up."

Why's it so soft when the cannons unload on the others, why's it so loud when we say it won't happen to us?

- Way he Brings

For an urban boy on a dirty tour, I never felt so clean

Loaded questions in an automatic world

-Dancefloorz


Oooooh waaaaaaaah ooooooooooh aaaaaaaah
- half their songs

I'd roll on, but I know you'll need me someday.
-War Begun

To take
me
To hell

- I Think I'm Going To Hell

My favorites are right here with me
Sittin' here with me and mine.  All wrapped up in a bottle of wine.

lime1968

"Should I lie here on the corner sofa, just waiting"

"Cause nights tick, by like a long week except when you stop by...anything much sweeter would make me die"

"So I say lord, all the heavens you've made, can't hold back the ghosts that haunt my baby and me...I will not CRUMBLE"
 
"slow moves with the light"

"if they told you tonight that you could start again, would you grab your car keys and make your way out"
ups and downs, bigotry and open minds, there'll be days of peace, you'll always have the time

ManNamedTruth

you only gotta dance with me.......
simple and beautiful
That's motherfuckin' John Oates!

The DARK

YOU HAD ME WORRIED! SO WORRIED - THAT THIS WOULD LAST...
BUT NOW I'M LEARNING - LEARNING THAT THIS WILL PASS... - Dondante

WE ARE THE INNOVATORS. THEY ARE THE IMITATORS. - Wordless Chorus

beat this thought into your head, singin over and over again:
"all your life is obscene!"
"forget the papers, forget your musical dreams!" - At Dawn

And you wont feel a thing. You wont feel a thing. - Stangulation

its a bad idea, to go down to the pier by your self after dark. - The Bear

as long as you keep a straight face,
i will be there when you die. - I Will Be There When You Die

your skin looks good in moonlight
and god damn those shaky knees - Steam Engine
In another time, in another place, in another face

been lurking for months now... guess I will join the club and post


so. I do believe. none of this is physical
at least not to me
so, I do believe
that anywhere it goes
it's always with me

I wont ask you where you're goin.
I wont ask you where you been.
I know after a million times you get sick of all my lines,
but I just wanna see you safe again.

and every word of Golden... the line about bars makin' time disappear hooked me for life...

DaFunkyPrecedent

I've got a master plan, and i've working on it from the start...

while its not the best "lyric"...it's the best opening lyric to anyone of their songs.  it catches you so quick.
God damn those shaky knees.

Sleazy Rider

"Strangulation, I don't wanna feel a thing. When your hands close tight 'round my neck, force the air that I breathe. I don't wanna feel a thing."
Politics. It's a drag. They put one foot in the grave, and the other on The Flag.

loper

I've got a picture of you, with green, green eyes and a cocaine smile............... ::)

The Big Come Up

To the past im diggin a grave so deep, it can swallow up the sea!!! Woah-o-Woahh!
