Lyrical Moments...

[Rhythm King]

Je ne veux pas travailler
Je ne veux pas déjeuner
Je veux seulement l'oublier
Et puis je fume*

* Except of course, je ne fume pas however:

puis j'ai le "nice cup of tea"

somehow doesn't fit quite so well

[Jazz_Shoes (Ash)]

Well do ya, do ya, do ya wanna

Franz Ferdnand Do you want to

[azande]

The sun rises slowly
On another day
The eastern sky grows
Cold
Winter in water colours
Shades of grey

Something
Something holds me
Holds me hypnotized

I stare at the window
Stare at the window
Waiting for the day
To go
Winter in water colours
Shades of grey

Another Day - The Cure

[jacksondonut]

Ev'ry time i think of you
I always catch my breath
And Im still standing here
And your miles away
And Im wondering why you left..

And there's a storm thats raging
Through my frozen heart tonight..

etc., etc.,

John Waite 1983 MISSING YOU..

[azande]

An unsavoury You spending my time on them
Without hesitation earning your money on us
Forged truth coming out
-filthy fingers

Alone cutting glass
Breaking hearts
Tinker with words

Stocked expectations in all this sickness
Get on your horses plodding in march
Overlook the future
Embrace the spirits of enterprise

Winter enclosure

Peaceful exploitations of deadly words
Soil is pulsating
Transmitted by the sweetest smile
Her beam embraces him
Sun swallow drunken mind
And writes her name on face

Overloaded memories were spilt on fire
The lack of comfort makes heroes of pain
Recreates the stars as the flare is conquered by aptitude

Winter enclosure

Vivid sounds creates connecting tunes
Soil is pulsating
The song is fully blown
A choir hymns the saddest melody
In hypnotic landscapes
Icebound the flower shiver

Icebound (the flower shiver) - Octavia

[CJ]

A gentle rain falls softly on my weary eyes
As if to hide a lonely tear
My life will be forever Autumn
'Cause you're not here.

[KatieR]

This time, This place
Misused, Mistakes
Too long, Too late
Who was I to make you wait
Just one chance
Just one breath
Just in case there's just one left

[Sparkles]

Well we all have a face
That we hide away forever
And we take them out and show ourselves
When everyone has gone
Some are satin some are steel
Some are silk and some are leather
They're the faces of the stranger
But we love to try them on

[azande]

Borderline cases
Reinforced glass
Absent friends
Passport photos
An elastic past
Empty pocket
They think it is all...
They think it's soul
All wrapped up on a swollen lip
He draws the warm pipe.

Chemicals
Chemicals captured in winter's grip
Turn us on

Seperate the leper
Hungry ghosts
Hungry ghosts
Another imprint
In borrowed clothes
We can be numb
We can be numb
Passing through

Blow blow blow blow

Borderline case
Future proof
Real thin air
Real thin air
Real thin air

Massive Attack - Future proof

Io penso positivo
perche son vivo
perche son vivo

[Jazz_Shoes (Ash)]

Why do you do what you do to me baby?
Shaking my confidence, driving me crazy.
You know if I could I'd do anything for you,
Please don't ignore me cause you know I adore you.

Can't you just pretend to be nice?
Can you at least pretend to be nice?
If you could just pretend to be nice,
Then everything in my life would be all right.

Pretend to be nice, Josie and the Pussycats

[azande]

Hotel hobbies padding dawns hollow corridors
A typewriter cackles out a stream of memories
Drying out a conscience, evicting a nightmare
Opening the doors for the dreams to come home
We live out lives in private shells
Ignore our senses and fool ourselves
To thinking that out there there's someone else cares
Someone to answer all our prayers

Are we too far gone, are we so irresponsible
Have we lost our balls, or do we just not care
We're terminal cases that keep talking medicine
Pretending the end isn't quite that near

We make futile gestures, act to the cameras
With our made up faces and PR smiles
And when the angel comes down, down to deliver us
We'll find out that after all, we're only men of straw

But everything is still the same
Passing the time passing the blame
We carry on in the same old way
We'll find out we left it too late one day to say what we meant to say

Just when you thought it was safe to go back to the water
Those problems seem to arise the ones you never really thought of
The feeling you get is similar to something like drowning
Out of your mind, you're out of your depth, you should have taken soundings
Clutching at straws, we're clutching at straws

And if you ever come across us don't give us your sympathy
You can buy us a drink and just shake our hands
And you'll recognise by the reflection in our eyes
That deep down inside we're all one and the same

We're clutching at straws
We're still drowning Clutching at straws

Marillion - The Last Straw

[azande]

Grease, sweat, coffee, faded shipyard pictures
Giant living there I used to know
Author of the testosterone scriptures
Where did you go?

Now I remember what you told me that time
Falling from my bike,
scraping my knee
If you're gonna weep,
keep it from sunshine,
So no one sees

I won't cry
Above all things boy, be a man

See little boy hiding amongst shadows
Ashamed of tears exposing ancient pain
From the storms predicted by the Tarot
Pray for the rain

I won't cry
Above all things boy, be a man

Type O Negative - Todd's Ship Gods

[CJ]

Take a look and see
What you do to me
Incandescant drops, they're all shiny and white.

"Necklace of Pearls"

[Piglet]

Wake me up when September ends (where's a yawning smiley when you need one! - Goodness could I sleep!)

[Tessalicious]

I woke up this morning,
The sunshine was shining,
I put on my happy face.

I'm living and able
And breathing, I'm grateful
To put on my happy face.

Destiny's Child

[azande]

I stand, look in my hands
I talk with these lines
It's not the answer
I'm crying and now I know
Looking the sky
I search an answer
So free, free to be
I'm not another liar
I just want to be myself... myself

And now the beat inside me
is a sort of a cold breeze and I've
never any feeling inside
around me I bring my body
carry it into another world
I know I live... but like a stone I'm falling down

Damned, looking into the sky
I can feel this rain
right now it's falling on me
fly, I just want to fly
life is all mine
some days I cry alone,
but I know I'm not the only one
I see that another day is gone
I don't wanna die...
Please be here when I arrive, don't die... please

Lacuna coil - Falling

[CJ]

I still recall the taste of your tears
Echoing your voice just like the ringing in my ears.
My favourite dreams of you still wash ashore
Scraping through my head til I don't wanna sleep....... anymore

You always were the one to show me how
Back then I couldn't do the things that I can do now
This thing is slowly taking me apart
Grey would be the color if I had a heart
Come on tell me

In this place it seems like such a shame.
Though it all looks different now,
I know it's still the same
Everywhere I look you're all I see.
Just a fading fcuking reminder of who I used to be.

Come on tell me.
You make this all go away.
You make this all go away.
I'm down to just one thing.
And I'm starting to scare myself.
You make this all go way.
You make this all go way.
I just want something.
I just want something I can never have

[Aleks]

Is there no sign of light as we stand in the darkness?
Watching the sun arise
Is there no sign of life as we gaze at the waters?
Into the strangers eyes

And who are we to criticize or scorn the things that they do?
For we shall seek and we shall find Ammonia Avenue

If we call for the proof and we question the answers
Only the doubt will grow
Are we blind to the truth or a sign to believe in?
Only the wise will know

And word by word they handed down the light that shines today
And those who came at first to scoff, remained behind to pray
Yes those who came at first to scoff, remained behind to pray

When you can't hear the rhyme and you can't see the reason
Why should the hope remain?
For a man will be tired and his soul will grow weary
Living his life in vain

And who are we to justify the right in all we do?
Until we seek until we find Ammonia Avenue

Through all the doubt somehow they knew
And stone by stone they built it high
Until the sun broke through
A ray of hope, a shining light Ammonia Avenue

[azande]

I, I just took a ride
in a silver machine
and I'm still feeling mean

Do you want to ride
see yourself going by
The other side of the sky
I got a silver machine

It flies sideways through time
It's an electric line
To your Zodiac sign

I got silver machine
8mile silver machine

It flies out of a dream
It's anti-septically clean
You're gonna know where I've been
In my silver machine

Hawkwind - Silver machine
