I'd Like Your hair Long - Hum

 

I'd like your hair long and laid on to the ground
You'd prefer an astronaut
Someone to relate to and someone to command
And I would be a simple man

I could hardly wait for my stars to fall in line
And synchronize and shine
A wasted string of years, and a wasted string of lies
It's still the same to me

It's a waste of a song
You're a waste of my lungs
It's a waste of a song

I'd like your face gone and in its place the sun
And I would be an astronaut
For I have come to surface to catch some light and feed
And I have everything I need

And I could hardly wait for my stars to fall in line
And synchronize and shine

A wasted string of years, and a wasted string of lies
You're still the same to me
You're a waste of a song

You're a waste of my lungs
It's a waste of a song

Longview - Green Day

I sit around and watch the tube
But nothing's on
I change the channels for an hour or two
Twiddle my thumbs just for a bit
I'm sick of all the same old shit
In a house with unlocked doors and I'm fuckin' lazy

Bite my lip and close my eyes
Take me away to paradise
I'm so damn bored, I'm going blind
And I smell like shit

Peel me off this Velcro seat
And get me moving
I sure as hell can't do it by myself
I'm feeling like a dog in heat
Barred indoors from the summer street
I locked the door to my own cell and I lost the key

Bite my lip and close my eyes
Take me away to paradise
I'm so damn bored, I'm going blind
And I smell like shit

I got no motivation
Where is my motivation?
No time for no motivation
Smoking my inspiration

I sit around and watch the phone
But no one's calling
Call me pathetic, call me what you will
My mother says to get a job
But she don't like the one she's got
When masturbation's lost its fun, you're fuckin' lazy

Bite my lip and close my eyes
Take me away to paradise
I'm so damn bored, I'm going blind
And loneliness has to suffice

Bite my lip and close my eyes
I'm slipping away to paradise
Some say, quit or I'll go blind
But it's just a myth

Tears and Pain - James Blunt

ddHow I wish I could surrender my soul
Shed the clothes that become my skin
See the liar that burns within my needing
How I wish I'd chosen darkness from cold
How I wish I had screamed out loud
Instead I've found no meaning

I guess it's time I run far, far away, find comfort in pain
All pleasure's the same, it just keeps me from trouble
Hides my true shape, like Dorian Gray
I've heard what they say, but I'm not here for trouble
It's more than just words, it's just tears and rain

How I wish I could walk through the doors of my mind
Hold memory close at hand
Help me understand the years
How I wish I could choose between Heaven and Hell
How I wish I would save my soul
I'm so cold from fear

I guess it's time I run far, far away, find comfort in pain
All pleasure's the same, it just keeps me from trouble
Hides my true shape, like Dorian Gray
I've heard what they say, but I'm not here for trouble
Far, far away, find comfort in pain
All pleasure's the same, it just keeps me from trouble
It's more than just words, it's just tears and rain

Oh
Tears and rain
Oh
Tears and rain

Far, far away, find comfort in pain

All pleasure's the same, it just keeps me from trouble
It's more than just words
It's just tears and rain

Tom's Diner - Suzanne Vega

I am sitting in the morning
At the diner on the corner
I am waiting at the counter
For the man to pour the coffee
And he fills it only halfway
And before I even argue
He is looking out the window
At somebody coming in

"It is always nice to see you"
Says the man behind the counter
To the woman who has come in
She is shaking her umbrella
And I look the other way
As they are kissing their hellos
And I'm pretending not to see them
And instead I pour the milk

I open up the paper
There's a story of an actor
Who had died while he was drinking
It was no one I had heard of
And I'm turning to the horoscope
And looking for the funnies
When I'm feeling someone watching me
And so I raise my head

There's a woman on the outside
Looking inside, does she see me?
No, she does not really see me
'Cause she sees her own reflection
And I'm trying not to notice
That she's hitching up her skirt
And while she's straightening her stockings
Her hair has gotten wet

Oh, this rain, it will continue
Through the morning as I'm listening
To the bells of the cathedral
I am thinking of your voice
And of the midnight picnic once upon a time
Before the rain began...
And I finish up my coffee
And it's time to catch the train

Happy birthday, brotha.

Happy birthday, godson.

Shadow Over Me - Nine Inch Nails

Hard to tell if I'm awake anymore

Hard to know for sure

In this dream, used to think I believe

Hard to know for sure

I know what I am, I know who I am

And I know what I have to do

I know what I am, I know who I am

But what if everything is true?

I got a shadow over me

I am not what I appear to be

And I know that you believe in me

And it feels so real, and it feels so re—

Yes, everything is fine, fine, fine, fine

We're running out of time, time, time, time

Yes, everything is fine, fine, fine, fine

We're running out of time, time, time, time

Here I stand, indiscrete, obsolete

Now I know for sure

Poisoned thoughts infiltrate, eradicate

Now I know for sure

I know what I am, I know who I am

And I know what I have to do

I know what I am, I know who I am

But what if everything is true?

I got a shadow over me

I am not what I appear to be

And I know that you believe in me

And it feels so real, and it feels so real

I got a shadow over me

I am not what I appear to be

And I know that you believe in me

And it feels so real, and it feels so re—

Yes, everything is fine, fine, fine, fine

We're running out of time, time, time, time

Make sure you stay in line, line, line, line

We're running out of time, time, time, time

Make sure you stay in line, line, line, line

We're running out of time, time, time, timesssss
