Bodies by Smashing Pumpkins (same theme, I think)

Cast the pearls aside
of a simple life of need
Come into my life forever

The crumbled cities stand as known
Of the sights you have been shown
Of the hurt you call your own

Love is suicide

The empty bodies stand at rest
Casualties of their own flesh
Afflicted by their dispossession

But no bodies ever knew
Nobodys
No bodies felt like you
Nobodys

Love is suicide

Now we drive the night
to the ironies of peace
You can't help deny forever

The tragedies reside in you
The secret sights hide in you
The lonely nights divide you in two

All my blisters now revealed
In the darkness of my dreams
In the spaces in between us

But no bodies ever knew
Nobodys
No bodies felt like you
Nobodys

Love is suicide

I thought it was of circumstances; Metallica, Nothing else matters. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

So close no matter how far
Couldn't be much more from the heart
Forever trusting who we are
And nothing else matters

Never opened myself this way
Life is ours, we live it our way
All these words I don't just say
And nothing else matters

Trust I seek and I find in you
Every day for us something new
Open mind for a different view
And nothing else matters

Never cared for things they say
Never cared for games they play
Never cared for what they do
Never cared for what they know
But I know

SWITCH OPENS

Hey you slaves go hang your owners
Draw your names among their ashes
Put your children on their thrones
Gather 'round and fall right down

Here at sundown nothing is when
Everything is all right
Switch opens
Opening around and let's the garden rise
Switch is on

Hey you patients
Where's your surgeon
Left with your
Insides open
Hung your hearts out
On the table
Gather 'round and fall right down

Feel the air now
Stumbling and wander in the moonshine
Switch opens
Nothing is when everything is all right
Switch is on

Lyrics: Cornell

Summer Breeze
by Seals & Croft

See the curtains hangin' in the window
In the evening on a Friday night
A little light-a-shinin' through the window
Lets me know everything's all right

Summer breeze makes me feel fine
Blowin' through the jasmine in my mind

See the paper layin' on the sidewalk
A little music from the house next door
So I walk on up to the door step
Through the screen and across the floor

Summer breeze makes me feel fine
Blowin' through the jasmine in my mind

Sweet days of summer -- the jasmine's in bloom
July is dressed up and playing her tune
And I come home from a hard day's work
And you're waitin' there
Not a care in the world

See the smile awaitin' in the kitchen
Food cookin' and the plates for two
Feel the arms that reach out to hold me
In the evening when the day is through

Summer breeze makes me feel fine
Blowin' through the jasmine in my mind

Paranoid - Black Sabbath

Finished with my woman ‘cause she couldn’t help me with my mind
People think I’m insane because I am frowning all the time

All day long I think of things but nothing seems to satisfy,
Think I’ll lose my mind if I don’t find something to pacify

Can you help me occupy my brain?
Oh yeah

I need someone to show me the things in life that I can’t find,
I can’t see the things that make true happiness, I must be blind

Make a joke and I will sigh and you will laugh and I will cry
Happiness I can not feel and love to me is so unreal

And so as you hear these words telling you now of my state
I tell you to enjoy life, I wish I could but (it’s/I’m) too late

Telephone Line - ELO

Hello - how are you
Have you been alright, through all those lonely nights,
That's what I'd say, I'd tell you everything,
If you'd pick up that telephone.

Hey - how you feelin'
Are you still the same
Don't you realize the things we did were all for real not a dream,
I just can't believe
They've all faded out of view.

I look into the sky
And I wonder why

Telephone line, give me some time, I'm living in twilight

O.K. so no one's answering,
Well can't you just let it ring a little longer
I'll just sit tight, through shadows of the night
Let it ring for evermore.

Telephone line, give me some time, I'm living in twilight

Twilight Zone - Golden Earring

(Somewhere in a lonely hotel room
There’s a guy starting to realize that eternal
Fate has turned its back on him. It’s 2 a.m.)

It’s two a.m.
The fear has gone
I’m sitting here waitin’
The gun’s still warm
Maybe my connection is tired of taking chances
Yeah there’s a storm on the loose
Sirens in my head
Wrapped up in silence
All circuits are dead
Cannot decode my whole life spins into a frenzy

Help I’m steppin’ into the twilight zone
The place is a madhouse
Feels like being cloned
My beacon’s been moved
Under moon and star
Where am I to go
Now that I’ve gone too far
(2x)

Soon you will come to know
When the bullet hits the bone
Soon you will come to know
When the bullet hits the bone

I’m falling down a spiral
Destination unknown
Double crossed messenger, all alone
Can’t get no connection
Can’t get through where are you

Well the night weighs heavy
On his guilty mind
This far from the borderline
When the hitman comes
He knows damn well
He has been cheated And he says

Help I’m steppin’ into the twilight zone
The place is a madhouse
Feels like being cloned
My beacon’s been moved
Under moon and star
Where am I to go
Now that I’ve gone too far
(2x)

Even aan m’n moeder vragen - Bloem

Blonde haren, blauwe ogen
Uit een sprookjesboek geslopen
Kwam ze voor m’n ruitje staan en zei
“Graag een kaartje van vijf gulden
Voor de film van vanavond”
Ik vroeg “waarom ga je niet met mij”
En dit is wat ze zei

Even aan m’n moeder vragen
Ik zweer je dat ze dat zei
Ze lachte d’r niet eens bij
Even aan m’n moeder vragen
Dat is toch uit de tijd meid
Je kunt ‘t ook bij mij kwijt

En ze keek me aan
‘t Was meteen gedaan vanaf toen
Alles voor een zoen

Even aan m’n moeder vragen
Ik zweer je dat ze dat zei
Ze lachte d’r niet eens bij
Even aan m’n moeder vragen
Dat is toch uit de tijd meid
Je kunt ‘t ook bij mij kwijt

Nou dat kom je maar weinig tegen
Zo’n juffrouw verdient alle zegen
Ik dacht dat ‘t was uitgestorven
Maar ik heb een afspraak voor morgen
Ze moet ook al voor twaalven thuis zijn
Maar dat zal me een grote zorg zijn
Annemarie, Annemarie

Ze drinkt enkel maar limonade
Die ik dan voor haar mag gaan halen
Sigaretten die vindt ze smerig
Popmuziek kan ze niet waarderen
Elke deur hou ik voor haar open
Ik ga zelfs met haar hondje lopen
Annemarie, Annemarie

Even aan m’n moeder vragen
Ik zweer je dat ze dat zei
Ze lachte d’r niet eens bij
Even aan m’n moeder vragen
Dat is toch uit de tijd meid
Je kunt ‘t ook bij mij kwijt

Even aan m’n moeder vragen
Ik zweer je dat ze dat zei
Ze lachte d’r niet eens bij
Even aan m’n moeder vragen
Dat is toch uit de tijd meid
Je kunt ‘t ook bij mij kwijt

To stay in the mood...

Pink Floyd "Wish you were here"
from the album "Wish you were here"

So, so you think you can tell
Heaven from Hell,
Blue skys from pain.
Can you tell a green field
From a cold steel rail?
A smile from a veil?
Do you think you can tell?

And did they get you to trade
Your heros for ghosts?
Hot ashes for trees?
Hot air for a cool breeze?
Cold comfort for change?
And did you exchange
A walk on part in the war
For a lead role in a cage?

How I wish, how I wish you were here.
We're just two lost souls
Swimming in a fish bowl,
Year after year,
Running over the same old ground.
What have we found?
The same old fears.
Wish you were here.

Forever Stay
by Darkseed

The hours are slipping by
I stare into the night
Into my deep blue sea
Of unforgotten memory
I paint your face
Into my mind
And kiss your tears away
For me there's only you

I want you here, forever stay
My heart torn in two
I'll hold you close to ease your pain
'cause i feel it too

We are two souls in moonlit autumn nights
Rebelling hearts on wings of gentle smiles
Peaceful earth and star-filled skies
No demon, devil, ghost will make us cry

I want you here, forever stay
My heart torn in two
I'll hold you close to ease your pain
'cause i feel it too
Forever stay and save the day
Forever stay

Outfield - Your Love

Josie's on a vacation far away,
Come around and talk it over
So many things that I wanna say
You know I like my girls a little bit older
I just wanna use your love tonight
I don't wanna lose your love tonight

I ain't got many friends left to talk to
Nowhere to run when I'm in trouble
You know I'd do anything for you
Stay the night but keep it under cover
I just wanna use your love tonight
I don't wanna lose your love tonight
Try to stop my hands from shaking
but something in my mind's not making sense
It's been a while since we were all alone
but I can't hide the way I'm feeling

As you're leaving please would you close the door
and don't forget what I told ya
Just cos you're right that don't mean I'm wrong
Another shoulder to cry upon
I just wanna use your love tonight
I don't wanna lose your love tonight
Use your love
Lose your love
Your love

Si Fragile - Luc de Larochelière
*Free translation by your devoted <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />

We don’t always choose the road,
Nor even the time to go.
We don’t always erease the doubt,
The old fear to lag.
And life is so fragile...

We never choose to get older,
We’d want to dream a little more.
Life isn’t made to die.
We die often, of course,
Cause life is so fragile...

We don’t always achieve the goal
That we aimed for in the past.
We don’t often get what we deserve;
Justice chooses itself where it goes.
And life is so fragile...

We’re only what we can;
We’re rarely what we think.
And as soon as we deem we’re a god,
As soon we recieve a cross.
And life is so fragile...

Cause time is there,
ever the
only justice here below.
We’re so fragile...

We walk on gold or on clay,
Depending on what we’ve recieved.
We remain just as fragile;
What’s the use to trample on each other?
Cause life is so fragile...

Anne Clark - Sleeper in Metropolis


As a sleeper in metropolis
You are insignificance
Dreams become entangled in the system
Environment moves over the sleeper:
Conditioned air
Conditions sedated breathing
The sensation of viscose sheets on naked flesh
Soft and warm
But lonesome in the blackened ocean of night
Confined in the helpless safety of desires and dreams
We fight our insignificance
The harder we fight
The higher the wall
Outside the city spreads
Like an illness
Its symptons
In cars that cruise to inevitable destinations
Tailed by the silent spotlights
Of Society created paranoia
No alternative could grow
Where love cannot take root
No shadows will replace
The warmth of your contact
Love is dead in metropolis
All contact through glove or partition
What a waste
The City -
A wasting disease.

Heartland by Sisters of Mercy

Lay me down the long white line
Leave the sirens far behind me
Paint my name in black and gold
My heart my flame my heart my road

My heartland fade across the line
Heartland sing the faces shining
In the failing failing failing
Heartland make the places mine

Clearly now the past mistakes
The giant steps we had to take
The path that ever promise made to
Die in dream dissolve and fade

My heartland heartland heartland
My heartland heartland heartland
My heartland heartland heartland
My heartland heartland heartland

Behind the lines a face that glimmers
Still looking for a face that shines
In the promise in the places
I'm going to make them mine

My heartland heartland heartland
My heartland heartland heartland
My heartland heartland heartland
My heartland heartland heartland (and so on)

Anne Clark - Our darkness

Through these city nightmares you’d walk with me
And we’d talk of it with idealistic assurance
That it wouldn’t tear us apart
We’d keep our heads above the blackened water
But there’s no room for ideals in this mechanical place
And you’re gone now

Through a grimy window that I can’t keep clean
Through billowing smoke that’s swallowed the sun
You’re nowhere to be seen

Do you think our desires still burn
I guess it was desires that tore us apart
There has to be passion
A passion for living, surviving
And that means detachment
Every-body has a weapon to fight you with
To beat you with when you are down
There were too many defences between us
Doubting all the time
Fearing all the time
Doubting all the time
Fearing all the time
That like these urban nightmares
We’d blacken each others skies

When we passed the subway we tried to ignore our fate there
Of written threats on endless walls
Unjustified crimes carried on stifled calls
Would you walk with me now through this pouring rain
It used to mingle with our tears then dry with the hopes that we left behind
It rains even harder now.

I just saw the movie again and I wanted to let you feel her pain of losing one true love...

Come Josephine...(Titanic)
Lowe: Is there anyone alive out there? Can anyone hear me?

Rose: Come Josephine, In my flying machine... and it's up she goes, up she goes... Come Josephine.. in my flying...

Come Josephine in my flying machine
Going up she goes
Up she goes
Balance yourself like a bird on a beam
In the air she goes
There she goes
Up, up, a little bit higher
Oh, my, the moon is on fire
Come Josephine in my flying machine
Going up
All on
Good-bye.

Oh, say, let us fly girl

Rose: Jack, there's a boat... Jack

Where dear? To the sky girl

Rose: Jack... Jack... Jack

Oh you flying machine

Rose (Crying): Jack, there's a boat, Jack

Come please, please Josephine

Rose: Jack...

Come Josephine in my flying machine
Going up
All on
Good-bye.

Kate Bush - Babooshka

She wanted to test her husband,
She new exactly what to do,
A pseudonym to fool him,
She couldn’t have made a worse move.
She sent him scented letters,
And he recieved them with a strange delight,
Just like his wife.
But how she was before the tears,
And how she was before the years flew by,
And how she was when she was beautiful.
She signed the letter:

All yours-ya-ya

She wanted to take it further,
So she arranged a place to go,
Too see if he,
Would fall for her incognito.
And when he laid eyes on her,
He got the feelings they had met before,
Uncanny how she
Reminds him of his little lady,
Capacity to give him all he needs,
Just like his wife before she freezed on him,
Just like his wife when she was beautiful,
He shouted, I’m...

All yours-ya-ya

Bonnie Tyler - Total eclipse of the heart

Turnaround, Every now and then I get a little bit lonely and you’re never coming round
Turnaround, Every now and then I get a little bit tired of listening to the sound of my tears
Turnaround, Every now and then I get a little bit nervous that the best of all the years have gone by
Turnaround, Every now and then I get a little bit terrified and then I see the look in your eyes
Turnaround bright eyes, Every now and then I fall apart
Turnaround bright eyes, Every now and then I fall apart

Turnaround, Every now and then I get a little bit restless and I dream of something wild
Turnaround, Every now and then I get a little bit helpless and I’m lying like a child in your arms
Turnaround, Every now and then I get a little bit angry and I know I’ve got to get out and cry
Turnaround, Every now and then I get a little bit terrified but then I see the look in your eyes
Turnaround bright eyes, Every now and then I fall apart
Turnaround bright eyes, Every now and then I fall apart

And I need you now tonight
And I need you more than ever
And if you’ll only hold me tight
We’ll be holding on forever
And we’ll only be making it right
Cause we’ll never be wrong together
We can take it to the end of the line
Your love is like a shadow on me all of the time
I don’t know what to do and I’m always in the dark
We’re living in a powder keg and giving off sparks
I really need you tonight
Forever’s gonna start tonight
Forever’s gonna start tonight

Once upon a time I was falling in love
But now I’m only falling apart
There’s nothing I can do
A total eclipse of the heart
Once upon a time there was light in my life
But now there’s only love in the dark
Nothing I can say
A total eclipse of the heart

(instrumental)

Turnaround bright eyes
Turnaround bright eyes
Turnaround, Every now and then I know you’ll never be the boy you always wanted to be
Turnaround, But every now and then I know you’ll always be the only boy who wanted me the way that I am
Turnaround, Every now and then I know there’s no one in the universe as magical and wondrous as you
Turnaround, Every now and then I know there’s nothing any better and there’s nothing I just wouldn’t do
Turnaround bright eyes, Every now and then I fall apart
Turnaround bright eyes, Every now and then I fall apart

And I need you now tonight
And I need you more than ever
And if you’ll only hold me tight
Well be holding on forever
And we’ll only be making it right
Cause we’ll never be wrong together
We can take it to the end of the line
Your love is like a shadow on me all of the time
I don’t know what to do and I’m always in the dark
We’re living in a powder keg and giving off sparks
I really need you tonight
Forever’s gonna start tonight
Forever’s gonna start tonight

Once upon a time I was falling in love
But now I’m only falling apart
Nothing I can do

A total eclipse of the heart
Once upon a time there was light in my life
But now there’s only love in the dark
Nothing I can say
A total eclipse of the heart

Stealers Wheel - Stuck in the middle with you

Well I don’t know why I came here tonight,
I got the feeling that something ain’t right,
I’m so scared in case I fall off my chair,
And I’m wondering how I’ll get down the stairs,
Clowns to the left of me,
Jokers to the right, here I am,
Stuck in the middle with you.

Yes I’m stuck in the middle with you,
And I’m wondering what it is I should do,
It’s so hard to keep this smile from my face,
Losing control, yeah, I’m all over the place,
Clowns to the left of me, Jokers to the right,
Here I am, stuck in the middle with you.

Well you started out with nothing,
And you’re proud that you’re a self made man,
And your friends, they all come crawlin,
Slap you on the back and say,
Please.... Please.....

Trying to make some sense of it all,
But I can see that it makes no sense at all,
Is it cool to go to sleep on the floor,
‘Cause I don’t think that I can take anymore
Clowns to the left of me, Jokers to the right,
Here I am, stuck in the middle with you.

Well you started out with nothing,
And you’re proud that you’re a self made man,
And your friends, they all come crawlin,
Slap you on the back and say,
Please.... Please.....

Well I don’t know why I came here tonight,
I got the feeling that something ain’t right,
I’m so scared in case I fall off my chair,
And I’m wondering how I’ll get down the stairs,
Clowns to the left of me,
Jokers to the right, here I am,
Stuck in the middle with you,
Yes I’m stuck in the middle with you,
Stuck in the middle with you.
