Crimson flames tied through my ears
Rollin' high and mighty traps
Pounced with fire on flaming roads
Using ideas as my maps
"We'll meet on edges, soon," said I
Proud 'neath heated brow.
Ah, but I was so much older then,
I'm younger than that now.

Half-wracked prejudice leaped forth
"Rip down all hate," I screamed
Lies that life is black and white
Spoke from my skull. I dreamed
Romantic facts of musketeers
Foundationed deep, somehow.
Ah, but I was so much older then,
I'm younger than that now.

Girls' faces formed the forward path
From phony jealousy
To memorizing politics
Of ancient history
Flung down by corpse evangelists
Unthought of, though, somehow.
Ah, but I was so much older then,
I'm younger than that now.

A self-ordained professor's tongue
Too serious to fool
Spouted out that liberty
Is just equality in school
"Equality," I spoke the word
As if a wedding vow.
Ah, but I was so much older then,
I'm younger than that now.

In a soldier's stance, I aimed my hand
At the mongrel dogs who teach
Fearing not that I'd become my enemy
In the instant that I preach
My pathway led by confusion boats
Mutiny from stern to bow.
Ah, but I was so much older then,
I'm younger than that now.

Yes, my guard stood hard when abstract threats
Too noble to neglect
Deceived me into thinking
I had something to protect
Good and bad, I define these terms
Quite clear, no doubt, somehow.
Ah, but I was so much older then,
I'm younger than that now.

- My Back Pages by Bob Dylan. Quite cool, if you actually read it you see its him rejecting all of that hippy protest song stuff that he did.

Oh yay My Back Pages is a great song, one of my real favourites unlike the sarcastic one above.

Oh, darling, make it go,
Make it go away.

Give me these moments back.
Give them back to me.
Give me that little kiss.
Give me your hand.

Theres more to life than books you know,
but not much more
..........
let me get my hands on your marmary glands,
let me get your head on the conjugal bed
................
Two lovers entwined pass me by, but heaven knows I am miserable now
....................
I was happy in the haze a drunken hour, but heaven knows I am miserable now
....................
If you were France and I was Germany
what an alliance that would be
..............................
Pure contempt for any picture, honey
just dedication to the frame
...............................
I quite fancy her mother and
I think that she likes me
......................
I am just a modern guy
of course I have had it in the ear before
I've got a lust for life

Led Zeppelin - The Rain Song

"These are the seasons of emotion
And like the winds they rise and fall
This is the wonder of devotion-
I see the torch we all must hold.
This is the mystery of the quotient-
Upon us all a little rain
must fall, Just a little rain?"

currently:

I would dig a thousand holes to lay next to you
I would dig a thousand more if I needed to
I look around the grave for an escape route of old routines
There doesn't seem to be any other way
Cause I've started falling apart I'm not savouring life
I've forgotten how good it could be to feel alive

Biffy Clyro - Machines

Of All Time:

Probably

Breathe out
So I could breathe you in
Hold you in

Foo Fighters - Everlong


but that whole song really

I have a couple -

"I'm here without you baby,
but you're still on my lonely mind.
I think about you baby
and I dream about you all the time.
I'm here without you baby,
but you're still with me in my dreams -
and tonight girl, it's only you and me."
{here without you, 3 doors down}

"I guess I'm trying to say I'm sorry,
But it always comes out wrong,
I think a part of you still loves me,
Even though we're moving on.

Always, all ways I wanted us to be,
Always, all ways you and me."
{always, all ways, lost prophets}

"And I hate to say goodbye - it gets harder every time."


and since someone mentioned it earlier -
"And when we meet
Which I'm sure we will
All that was there
Will be there still
I'll let it pass
And hold my tongue
And you will think
That I've moved on...."
{white flag, Dido}

Last week I flew to San Diego to see my aunt on day one I met her hot step daughter.
She's a cheerleader, she's a virgin and she's really tanned.
As she stepped out of her massive car, I could only notice she was more than fuckable.
I think she was coming back of her game or something.
Because she was holding that silly pom pom.
On day two, I fucked her and it was wild. She's such a slut.

I fucked my American cunt.
I loved my English romance.

I loved my English romance.
It was dirty, a dream came true just like I like it she's got nice tits.
It was perfect, a dream came true just like a song by Blink-182

Okay, listen girls, I met the hottest guy ever.
Basically as I was stepping out of SUV, I came face to face with my step cousin or whatever.
Who cares. Anyway he was wearing skinny jeans, funky hair and the cutest British accent ever.
Straight away, I can tell he was rocker from his sexy attitude and the way he looked to me.
Yumm he is totally awesome.
Oh my god I think I'm in love.

I fucked my American cunt.
I loved my English romance.

It was so nice to meet you.
Pleasure is mine, I do like you.
Come to Cancun for spring break.
I'll think about it, it could be great.

And don't forget to send me a friend request.
As if!

Oh dear, another one with multiple suggestions:

No-one can give you courage
No-one can thicken your skin
(Last 5 Years: 'If I didn't believe in you')

Ring the bells that still can ring
Forget your perfect offering
There is a crack, a crack in everything
That's how the light gets in
(Leonard Cohen: 'Anthem')

Take this sinking boat
And point it home
We've still got time
(The Frames: 'Falling Slowly')

And even though it all went wrong
I'll stand before the lord of song
With nothing on my tongue
But Hallelujah
(Leonard Cohen: 'Hallelujah')

Let sense be dumb, let flesh retire
Speak through the earthquake, wind and fire
O still small voice of calm...
('Dear lord and father of mankind')

It started out as a feeling
Which then grew into a hope
Which then turned into a quiet thought
Which then turned into a quiet word
And then that word grew louder and louder
'Til it was a battle cry:
I'll come back when you call me
No need to say goodbye
(Regina Spektor: 'The Call')

I could go on...
Han

Regina Spektor, such a deep choice. My personal favorite would be 'so cheap and juicy."

Do not want.

But I am enjoying laughing at you all, so please continue.

Life is whittled
Life's a riddle
Man's a fiddle that life plays on
When the day breaks and the earth quakes
Life's a mistake all day long
Tell me, who gives a good goddamn
You'll never get out alive
Don't go dreaming
Don't go scheming
A man must test his mettle
In a crooked ol' world

Starving in the belly
Starving in the belly
Starving in the belly of a whale
Starving in the belly
Starving in the belly
Starving in the belly of a whale

Don't take my word
Just look skyward
They that dance must pay the fiddler
Sky is darkening
Dogs are barking
But the caravan moves on
You tell me, who gives a good goddamn
You'll never get out alive
Don't go dreaming
Don't go scheming
A man must test his mettle
In a crooked ol' world

Starving in the belly
Starving in the belly
Starving in the belly of a whale
Oh we're starving in the belly
Starving in the belly
Starving in the belly of a whale

As the crow flies
It's there the truth lies
At the bottom of the well
E-o-Leven goes to heaven
Bless the dead here as the rain falls
Don't trust a bull's horn
A doberman's tooth
A runaway horse or me
Don't be greedy, don't be needy
If you live in hope
You're dancing to a terrible tune

Starving in the belly
Starving in the belly
Starving in the belly of a whale
Oh starving in the belly
Starving in the belly
Starving in the belly of a whale
