Just about a year ago, I set out on the road,
Seekin' my fame and fortune, lookin' for a pot of gold. Things got bad, and things got worse, I guess you will know the tune. Oh ! Lord, Stuck in Lodi again. Rode in on the Greyhound, I'll be walkin' out if I go. I was just passin' through, must be seven months or more. Ran out of time and money, looks like they took my friends. Oh ! Lord, I'm stuck in Lodi again. The man from the magazine said I was on my way. Somewhere I lost connections, ran out of songs to play. I came into town, a one night stand, looks like my plans fell through Oh ! Lord, Stuck in Lodi again. Mmmm... If I only had a dollar, for ev'ry song I've sung. And ev'ry time I've had to play while people sat there drunk. You know, I'd catch the next train back to where I live. Oh ! Lord, I'm stuck in Lodi again. Oh ! Lord, I'm stuck in Lodi again. Lodi -- Creedence Clearwater Revival

We suffer everyday, what is it for
These crimes of illusion, are fooling us all And now I am weary and I feel like I do It's only you, who can tell me apart And it's only you, who can turn my wooden heart The size of our fight, it's just a dream We've crushed everything I can see, in this morning selfishly How we've failed and I feel like I do It's only you, who can tell me apart And it's only you, who can turn my wooden heart Now that we've chosen to take all we can This shade of autumn, a stale bitter end Years of frustration lay down side by side And it's only you, who can tell me apart And it's only you, who can turn my wooden heart It's only you, who can tell me apart And it's only you, who can turn my wooden heart Only You - Portishead

Cast the calming apple
Up and over satellites To draw out the timid wild one To convince you it's alright And I listen for the whisper Of your sweet insanity while I formulate Denials of your affect on me You're a stranger So what do I care You vanish today Not the first time I hear All the lies What am I to do with all this silence Shy away, shy away phantom Run away terrified child Won't you move away you fucking tornado I'm better off without you Tearing my will down The Stranger- A Perfect Circle

Have you come here for forgiveness
Have you come to raise the dead Have you come here to play Jesus To the lepers in your head Did I ask too much? More than alot You gave me nothing now it's all I got We're one but we're not the same We hurt each other Then we do it again You say Love is a temple Love a higher law Love is a temple Love the higher law You ask me to enter But then you make me crawl And I can't be holding on To what you got When all you got is hurt... One love One blood One life YOu got to do what you should ONe life With each other Sisters Brothers One life But we're not the same We get to carry each other CARRY EACH OTHER ONE! ONE!!! One - U2

Go back to sleep Lay your head down child I won't let the boogeyman come Counting bodies like sheep To the rhythm of the war drums Pay no mind to the rabble Pay no mind to the rabble Head down, go to sleep To the rhythm of the war drums Pay no mind what other voices say They don't care about you, like I do, like I do Safe from pain and truth and choice and other poison devils, See, they don't give a fuck about you, like I do. Just stay with me, safe and ignorant, Go back to sleep Go back to sleep Lay your head down child I won't let the boogeyman come Count the bodies like sheep To the rhythm of the war drums Pay no mind to the rabble Pay no mind to the rabble Head down, go to sleep to the rhythm of the war drums I'll be the one to protect you from Your enemies and all your demons I'll be the one to protect you from A will to survive and a voice of reason I'll be the one to protect you from Your enemies and your choices son They're one in the same I must isolate you Isolate and save you from yourself Swayin to the rhythm of the new world order and Count the bodies like sheep to the rhythm of the war drum The boogeymen are coming The boogeymen are coming Keep your head down, go to sleep, to the rhythm of a war drum Stay with me Safe and ignorant Just stay with me Hold you and protect you from the other one The evil ones Don't love you son, Go back to sleep Pet- A Perfect Circle

Heaven on Earth
We need it now I'm sick of all of this Hanging around Sick of sorrow Sick of pain Sick of hearing again and again That there's gonna be Peace on Earth Where I grew up There weren't many trees Where there was we'd tear them down And use them on our enemies They say that what you mock Will surely overtake you And you become a monster So the monster will not break you It's already gone too far Who said that if you go in hard You won't get hurt Jesus could you take the time To throw a drowning man a line Peace on Earth Tell the ones who hear no sound Whose sons are living in the ground Peace on Earth No whos or whys No-one cries like a mother cries For peace on Earth She never got to say goodbye To see the colour in his eyes Now he's in the dirt Peace on Earth They're reading names out over the radio All the folks the rest of us won't get to know Sean and Julia, Gareth, Ann and Breda Their lives are bigger, than any big idea Jesus can you take the time To throw a drowning man a line Peace on Earth To tell the ones who hear no sound Whose sons are living in the ground Peace on Earth Jesus this song you wrote The words are sticking in my throat Peace on Earth Hear it every Christmas time But hope and history won't rhyme So what's it worth? This peace on Earth Peace on Earth Peace on Earth Peace on Earth PEACE ON EARTH == U2

I want you to know that I'm happy for you
I wish nothing but the best for you both An older version of me Is she perverted like me Would she go down on you in a theater Does she speak eloquently And would she have your baby I'm sure she'd make a really excellent mother 'Cause the love that you gave that we made wasn't able to make it enough for you to be open wide, no And every time you speak her name Does she know how you told me you'd hold me Until you died, 'til you died But you're still alive Chorus: And I'm here to remind you Of the mess you left when you went away It's not fair to deny me Of the cross I bear that you gave to me You, you, you oughta know You seem very well, things look peaceful I'm not quite as well, I thought you should know Did you forget about me Mr. Duplicity I hate to but you in the middle of dinner It was a slap in the face how quickly I was replaced Are you thinking of me when you fuck her 'Cause the love that you gave that we made wasn't able to make it enough for you to be open wide, no And every time you speak her name Does she know how you told me you'd hold me Until you died, 'til you died But you're sill alive Repeat Chorus 'Cause the joke that you laid in the bed that was me And I'm not gonna fade As soon as you close your eyes and you know it And every time I scratch my nails down someone else's back I hope you feel it...well can you feel it YOU OUGHTA KNOW == ALANIS MORISSETTE

And I wished for so long. Cannot stay.
All the precious moments. Cannot stay. It's not like wings have fallen. Cannot stay. But still something's missing. I cannot say, yeah. Holding hands are daughters and sons. And their faiths are falling down, down, down, down. I have wished for so long. How I wish for you today. Will I walk the long road? (the long road) Cannot stay. (the long road) There's no need to say goodbye. (to say goodbye) All the friends and family. All the memories going round, round, round, round. I have wished for so long. How I wish for you today. And the wind keeps roaring. And the sky keeps turning grey. And the sun is set. The sun will rise another day. I... I have wished for so long. How I wish for you today. I have wished for so long. How I wish for you today. Will I walk the long road? We all walk the long road. Will I walk the long road? We all walk the long road. Will I walk the long road? Will I walk the long road? We all walk the long road. Will I walk the long road? We all walk the long road. Will I walk the long road?

Angel came down from heaven yesterday
She stayed with me just long enough to rescue me And she told me a story yesterday, About the sweet love between the moon and the deep blue sea And then she spread her wings high over me She said she's gonna come back tomorrow And I said, "Fly on my sweet angel, Fly on through the sky, Fly on my sweet angel, Tomorrow I'm gonna be by your side" Sure enough this morning came unto me Silver wings silhouetted against the child's sunrise And my angel she said unto me, "Today is the day for you to rise Take my hand, you're gonna be my man, You're gonna rise" And then she took high over yonder And I said, "Fly on my sweet angel, Fly on through the sky, Fly on my sweet angel, Forever I will be by your side" by JIMI HENDRIX

So glad to see you well
Overcome and completely silent now With heaven's help You cast your demons out And not to pull your halo down Around your neck and tug you off your cloud But I'm more than just a little curious How you're planning to go about Making your amends to the dead To the dead Recall the deeds as if They're all someone else's Atrocious stories Now you stand reborn before us all So glad to see you well And not to pull your halo down Around your neck and tug you to the ground But I'm more than just a little curious How you're planning to go about Making your amends to the dead To the dead With your halo slipping down Your halo slipping Your halo slipping down Your halo slipping down Your halo slipping down [repeated] Your halo slipping down to choke you now The Noose- A Perfect Circle ( This song as become and obbsession of mine! I find myself always listening to it)

We barely remember who or what came before this precious moment,
We are choosing to be here right now. Hold on, stay inside This holy reality, this holy experience. Choosing to be here in This body. This body holding me. Be my reminder here that I am not alone in This body, this body holding me, feeling eternal All this pain is an illusion. Alive, I In this holy reality, in this holy experience. Choosing to be here in This body. This body holding me. Be my reminder here that I am not alone in This body, this body holding me, feeling eternal All this pain is an illusion. Twirling round with this familiar parable. Spinning, weaving round each new experience. Recognize this as a holy gift and celebrate this chance to be alive and breathing. This body holding me reminds me of my own mortality. Embrace this moment. Remember. We are eternal. All this pain is an illusion. Parabola -- TOOL

We're miles away from nowhere
And the wind doesn't have a name So call it what you want to call it Still blows down the lane. People tell me, I haven't changed at all But I don't feel the same And I'll bet you've had that feeling too You can't laugh all the time. And if the fires burn out there's only fire to blame No time for worry cause we're on the roam again The clouds all scatter and we ride the outside lane Not on your own so help me please hold back the rain. So what if the words ain't rhyming Did you think that it's just a game I probably didnt even say that right And I really don't give a damn Okay go off and wander I'm guilty just the same Sometimes you're needed badly So please come back again Hold Back the Rain - Duran Duran

how did I know Smilin would post a Springsteen song? LOL anyhow i'll be terribly predictable and post some lyrics from the great Eddie Vedder.
FOOTSTEPS Don't even think about reachin' me, I won't be home Don't even think about stoppin' by, don't think of me at all I did, what I had to do, if there was a reason, it was you... Aah...don't even think about gettin' inside Voices in me head...ooh, voices I got scratches, all over my arms One for each day, since I fell apart I did...oh, what I had to do, if there was a reason, it was you Footsteps in the hall, it was you, you...oh... Pictures on my chest, it was you, it was you... Hey...I did, what I had to do...oh, and if there was a reason Oh, there wasn't no reason, no And if, there's something you'd like to do Just let me continue, to blame you Footsteps in the hall, it was you, you...oh... Pictures on my chest, it was you, you...oh have to love the line "ive got scratches all over my arms, one for each day since i fell apart".
