Metallica - That Was Just Your Life

Like a siren in my head that always
Threatens to repeat
Like a blind man that is strapped into the speeding driver's seat
Like a face
That learns to speak
When all it knew was how to bite

Like a misery that keeps me focused
Though I've gone astray
Like an endless nightmare that
I must awaken from each day
Like conviction
A premonition
Not worthy of, so I deny...... I deny

I blind my eyes and try to force it all into place
I stitch them up, see not my fall from grace
I blind my eyes, I hide and feel it passing me by
I open just in time to say goodbye

Almost like your life
Almost like your endless fight
Curse the day is long
Realize you don't belong
Disconnect somehow
Never stop the bleeding now
Almost like your fight
And there it went,
Almost like your life

Like a wound that keeps on bleeding to remind me not to think
Like a raging river drowning when
I only need a drink
Like a poison
That I swallow
But I want the world to die

Like a release from prison
That I didn't know I was in
Like a fight to live the past I prayed
To leave
From way back then
Like a general
Without a mission
Until the war will start again...... start again

I blind my eyes and try to force it all into place
I stitch them up, see not my fall from grace
I blind my eyes, I hide and feel it passing me by
I open just in time to say goodbye

Almost like your life
Almost like your endless fight
Curse the day is long
Realize you don't belong
Disconnect somehow
Never stop the bleeding now
Almost like your fight
And there it went,
Almost like your life

Like a touch from hell to feel how hot
That it can get if you get caught
Like a strike from heaven turns that key
And brings you straight down to your knees

Like a touch from hell to feel how hot
That it can get if I get caught
Like a strike from heaven to reprieve
That brings you straight down to your knees

Almost like your life
Almost like your endless fight
Curse the day is long
Realize you don't belong
Disconnect somehow
Never stop the bleeding now
Almost like your fight
And there it went,
Almost like your life
That was just your life

Echo & The Bunnymen - Way Out And Up We Go

When I asked for money
You would give me alcohol
Wasn't being funny
When I said no ifs at all

I'm thinking
Thoughts too late
No linking
I won't wait

When I wanted coffee
You insist on alcohol
When I said no maybes
You would give me ifs, that's all

A message wrapped in paper
Each passage wrapped in paper
Wrapped in paper made for us...

Some meaning sent to someone
Each read it, passed it on
Passed it on to one of us...

Crumpled on the mattress
Best you cover up
Hardly in the bad day
When you don't get up

He made it
Wrapped in sackcloth
Afraid of it
Had to back off
Backed off into one of us...

Ten seconds
You can't see it
Old record
Laugh my way out

Way out and up we go
Out of the way and up we go

Björk - Virus

Like a virus needs a body
As soft tissue feeds on blood
Someday I’ll find you, the urge is here

Like a mushroom on a tree trunk
As the protein transmutates
I knock on your skin
And I am in

The perfect match
You and me
I adapt, contagious
You open up, saying welcome

Like a flame that seeks explosives
As gun powder needs a war
I feast inside you, my host is you

The perfect match
You and I
You fail to resist
My crystalline charm

Like a virus
Patient hunter
I'm waiting for you
I’m starving for you

My sweet adversary
My sweet adversary
My sweet adversary

Beastie Boys - Sure Shot

You can't, you won't and you don't stop
Mike D come on and rock the sure shot
I've got the brand new doo-doo guaranteed
Like Yoo Hoo
I'm on like Dr John, yea Mr Zu Zu
I'm a newlywed, not a divorcee
And everything I do is funky like Lee Dorsey
Well, it's the taking of Pelham, one, two, three
If you want a doodoo rhyme then come see me
I've got the savior faire with the unique rhyme
And
I keep it on and on, it's never quitting time and
Strictly hand held is the style I go
Never rock the mice with the panty hose
I strap on my ear goggles and I'm ready to go
'couse at the boards is the man they call the Mario
Pull up at the function and you know I Kojak
To all the party people that are on my bozak
I've got more action than my man John Woo
And I've got mad hits like I was rod crew

You can't, you won't and you don't stop
Ad Rock come and rock the sure shot

Hurricane will cross fade on your ass and
Bust your ear drums
Listen everybody 'couse I'm shifting gears I'm
Fresh like dougie when I set my specs and
On the microphone I come correct
Timing like a clock when I' rock the hip hop
Top notch is my stock on the soap box
I've got more rhymes than I've got grey hairs
And that's a lot because I've got my share
I've got a hole in my head and there's no one
To fix it
Got to straighten my thoughts, I'm thinking too
Much sick shit
Everyone just takes and takes, takes, takes,
Takes
I've got to step back, I've got to contemplate
I'm like Lee Perry, I'm very
On rock the microphone and then I'm gone
I'm like Vaughn Bode, I'm a cheech wizard
Never quitting, so won't you listen

Oh yes indeed, it's fun time
Cause you can't, you won't and you don't stop
Mca come and rock the sure shot

I want to say a little something that's long
Overdue
The disrespect to women has got to be through
To all the mothers and sisters and the
Wives and friends
I want to offer my love and respect to the
End
Well you say i«m twenty something and should
Be slacking
But I'm working harder than ever and you could
Call it macking
So I'm supposed to sit upon my couch watching my
T.V.
I'm still listening to wax, I'm not using the cd
I'm that kid in the corner
All fucked up and I want to so I'm gonna
Take a piece of the pie, why not, I'm not quitting
Think I'm gonna change up my style just to fit in
I keep my underwear up with a piece of elastic
I use a bullshit mic that's made out of plastic
To send my rhymes out to all nations
Like ma bell, I've got the ill communications

‘Cause you can't, you won't, and you don't stop
‘Cause you can't, you won't, and you don't stop
Well, you can't, you won't, and you don't stop

Keep on and rockin' the sure shot

B-boys, b-girls...
Tick-tock, tick-tick...tock-tock

Ramones - Somebody Put Something In My Drink

Another night out on the street
Stopping for my usual seat
Oh, bartender, please

Tanqueray and tonic's my favorite drink
I don't like anything colored pink
That just stinks...it's not for me

It feels like somebody put something
Somebody put something in my drink
Somebody put something
Somebody put something

Blurred vision and dirty thoughts
Feel out of place, very distraught
Feel something coming on

Kick the jukebox, slam the floor
Drink, drink, drink, drink some more
I can't think
Hey! What's in this drink?

It feels like somebody put something
Somebody put something in my drink
Somebody put something
Somebody put something in my drink
Somebody put something
Somebody put something in my drink
Somebody put something...in my drink...in my drink...
in my drink...in my drink

So you think it's funny
A college prank
Goin' insane for something to drink
Feel a little dry

Oh, I couldn't care what you think of me
Cause somebody put something in my drink
I can't think
Hey! Give me a drink

It feels like somebody put something
Somebody put something in my drink
Somebody put something
Somebody put something in my drink
Somebody put something
Somebody put something in my drink
Somebody put something
Somebody put something in my drink
Somebody put something
Somebody put something in my drink
Somebody put something
Somebody put something in my drink
Somebody put something
Somebody put something in my drink

Blur - No Distance Left To Run

It's over
You don't need to tell me
I hope you're with someone who makes you 
feel safe in your sleeping tonight
I won't kill myself, trying to stay in your life
I got no distance left to run

When you see me
Please turn your back and walk away
I don't want to see you 'cause I know the dreams that you keep is wearing me
When your coming down, think of me here
I got no distance left to run

It's over, I knew it would end this way
I hope you're with someone who makes you feel
That this life is the night
And it settles down, stays around
Spends more time with you
I got no distance left to run

I'm coming home
So cold
No more
Home
No more, no more, no more

Green Day - 21st Century Breakdown

Born into Nixon I was raised in hell
A welfare child
Where the teamsters dwelled
The last one born
And The first one to run
My town was blind from refinery sun

My generation is zero
I never made it as a working class hero

21st Century Breakdown
I once was lost but never was found
I think I'm losing what's left of my mind
To the 20th century deadline

I was made of poison and blood
Condemnation is what I understood
Video games of the towers fall
Homeland security could kill us all

My generation is zero
I never made it as a working class hero

21st Century Breakdown
I once was lost but never was found
I think I'm losing what's left of my mind
To the 20th century deadline

We are the class of the class of '13
Born in the era of humility
We are the desperate in the decline
Raised by the bastards of 1969

My name is no one
The long lost son
Born on the 4th of July
Raised in the era of heroes and cons
That left me for dead or alive

I am a nation
A worker of pride
My debt to the status quo

The scars on my hands
And the means to an end
Is all the that I have to show

I swallowed my pride
And I choked on my faith
I've given my heart and my soul
I've broken my fingers
And lied through my teeth
The pillar of damage control

I've been to the edge
And I've thrown the bouquet
Of flowers left over the grave
I sat in the waiting room
Wasting my time
And waiting for Judgement Day

I praise liberty
The "freedom to obey"
It's the song that strangles me
Well, don't cross the line

Oh, dream, America, dream
I can't even sleep
From the light's early dawn

Oh, scream, America, scream
Believe what you see
From heroes and cons

Smashing Pumpkins - Tear

The lights came on fast
Lost in motorcrash
Gone in a flash unreal
But you knew all along
You laugh the light
I sing the songs
To watch you numb

I saw you there
You were on your way
You held the rain
And for the first time
Heaven seemed insane
Cause heaven is to blame
For taking you away

Do you know the way that I can?
Do you know the way that I can't lose?
Do you know the things that I can?
Do you know the things that I can do?

Where is your heart? where is your heart gone to?
Tear me apart
Tear me apart from you
You laugh the light I cry the wound
In gray afternoons

I saw you there
You were on your way
You held the rain
And for the first time
Heaven seemed insane
Cause heaven is to blame
For taking you away

The lights came to pass
Dead opera motorcrash
Gone in a flash unreal
In nitrous overcast

Do you know the way that I can?
Do you know the way that I can't choose?
Do you know the things that I can?
Do you know the things that I can't lose?

Tear me apart
Tear me apart from you
Where is your heart?
Where has your heart run to?

Sharon Van Etten - Afraid Of Nothing

You told me the day
That you show me your face
We'd be in trouble for a long time

I can't wait til we're afraid of nothing
I can't wait til we hide from nothing
Nothing
And you decide, you throw me a lame "wait shit out"
You're a little late
I need you
To be afraid of nothing

Turning my way
You show me your face
We've known each other for a long time

I can't wait til we're afraid of nothing
I can't wait til we hide from nothing
Nothing
And you decide, you throw me a lame "wait shit out"
You're a little late
I need you
To be afraid of nothing

I need you to be afraid of nothing

Toy Dolls - Howz Bouta Kiss Babe??!

Bored at a party Saturday night looking at Tupperware,
In came a chick who made me quickly glad I was th there,
How could I get the courage to ask her for a date?
Twas such a task for me to ask by then it was too late

Howza bouta... Howza Bouta, oooo she drives me crazy
Howza Bouta, Howza Bouta kiss baby!

Why am I such a whimp I thought a soft and skinny puff
For me to ask a kiss from her was difficult and tough
Right that's it I decided to confront the lass,
I started shakin at the knees and tried to make a pass

Howza bouta... Howza Bouta, oooo she drives me crazy
Howza Bouta, Howza Bouta kiss baby!

I lose my bottle everytime I see a girl I like
I start talkin jibberish and she says on yer bike
there must be something I can do a kiss would make my day
but everytime my gob opens I don't know what to say

Howza bouta... Howza Bouta, oooo she drives me crazy
Howza Bouta, Howza Bouta kiss baby!

Paradise Lost - Fader

It's in my heart, it's in your soul
You choose to judge, is that your role?
Don't analyse or complicate
You'll criticise, you can't relate

And now you want some understanding
What's my point of view?

Then I'll just fade away
When I hear all your lies I choke
Then I'll just fade away
Suffering from the times you spoke I fade

Regarding more, just seems much less
So cynical, you must confess
I'm dying here, completely blind
Your will to live just dampens mine

And now you want some understanding
What's my point of view?

Then I'll just fade away
When I hear all your lies I choke
Then I'll just fade away
Suffering from the times you spoke I fade

Depeche Mode - Stripped

Come with me
Into the trees
We'll lay on the grass
And let the hours pass

Take my hand
Come back to the land
Let's get away
Just for one day

Let me see you
Stripped down to the bone
Let me see you
Stripped down to the bone

Metropolis
Has nothing on this
You're breathing in fumes
I taste when we kiss

Take my hand
Come back to the land
Where everything's ours
For a few hours

Let me see you
Stripped down to the bone
Let me see you
Stripped down to the bone

Let me hear you
Make decisions
Without your television
Let me hear you speaking
Just for me

Let me see you
Stripped down to the bone

Let me hear you speaking
Just for me

Let me see you
Stripped down to the bone

Let me hear you crying
Just for me

Peter Murphy - Gliding Like A Whale

It only takes the time
Between here and there
For a landing in another place
Saw your shadow fleeting
In the corner of my eye
Your feet were skimming the sand
And then some began to fly
Lasted no time at all
No time at all

Gliding like a whale
In and out of hotels
Gliding like a whale
In and out of hotels

The flower seller told the tale
Saw you kiss the King one minute
Then the next set sail
Two places in one time
And that's not all
In one you're swimming to the limit
Then the next you're riding the whales
This clever never no man's land
Angels whisper that you're winning
Shooting stars that leave no trail
It took you no time to leave the land
When you kissed the King one minute
The next you're setting sail

Gliding like a whale
In and out of hotels

Megadeth - Sweating Bullets

Hello me, meet the real me
And my misfit's way of life
A dark, black past is my
Most valued possession
Hindsight is always 20-20
But looking back, it's still a bit fuzzy
Speak of mutually assured destruction?
Nice story, Tell it to Reader's Digest®!

Feeling paranoid
True enemy or false friend?
Anxiety's attacking me
And my air is getting thin
I'm in trouble for the things
I haven't got to yet
I'm chomping at the bit
And my palms are getting wet
Sweating bullets

Hello me, it's me again
You can subdue, but never tame me
It gives me a migraine headache
Sinking down to your level
Yea, just keep on thinking it's my fault
And stay an inch or two outta kicking distance
Mankind has got to know
His limitations

Feeling claustrophobic
Like the walls are closing in
Blood stains on my hands
And I don't know where I've been
I'm in trouble for the things
I haven't got to yet
I'm sharpening the axe
And my palms are getting wet
Sweating bullets

I hear it in hear...
Blood stains on my...hands
The big axe...
Sweating...

Well, me, it's nice talking to myself
A credit to dementia
Some day you too will know my pain
And smile its "black-tooth grin"
If the war inside my head
Won't take a day off I'll be dead
My icy fingers claw your back
Here I come again

Feeling paranoid
True enemy or false friend?
Anxiety's attacking me
And my air is getting thin

Feeling claustrophobic
Like the walls are closing in
Blood stains on my hands
And I don't know where I've been

Once you committed me
Now you've acquitted me
Claiming validity
For your stupidity
I'm chomping at the bit
I'm sharpening the axe
Here I come again
Sweating bullets

Sonic Youth - 'Cross The Breeze

Let's go walkin' on the water
Come all the way please
I wanna know, should I stay or go
No need to be scared
Let's jump into the day
I wanna know, I think I ought to go
Close your eyes and make believe
You can do whatever you please
I wanna know, I think I better go
Let's go walkin' on water
Now you think I'm Satan's daughter
I wanna know, please let me go
Just too quick
Now I think I'm gonna be sick
I wanna know, should I stay or go
I'm trying for the future
It's funny that way
I wanna know, I wanna know
I took a look into the hate
It made me feel very up to date
I wanna know, should I stay or go
Hold me tight, down on my knees
So I don't go burning 'cross the breeze
I wanna know, I wanna know

I wanna know, should I stay or go

Burnin' across the breeze
Burnin' across the breeze

Joy Division - The Drawback [Demo]

Seen the troubles and the evils of this world
I've seen the stretches between godliness and sin
I've had the promise and confessions of true faith
And the hypocrisy that always lies within
And they left it for you, all of this for you

I've seen the products and the other world of waste
I've seen the colour of corruption deep within
I've seen them lose themselves in dignity and taste
To see in black and white and through to black again
And they left it for you, all of this for you

And they left it for you, all of this for you
And they left it for you, everything for you
I've seen the troubles and the evils of this world
I've seen the ones who can succeed but always lose
I've seen what's left of poor technology and work
And watched them dying as they leave their ship of fools
And they left it for you, all of this for you

Beastie Boys - Super Disco Breakin'

Well, it's...
Fifty cups of coffee and you know it's on
I move the crowd to the break of break of dawn
Can't rock the house without the party people
'Cause when we're gettin' down we are all equal
There's no better or worse between you and me
But I rock the mic so viciously
Like pins and needles and words that sting
At the blink of an eye I will do my thing
It's like a needle in the cartridge when the record spins
Like diggin' down deep in the record bins
Everybody gettin' down make no mistake
Nothing sounds quite like an eight...0...eight

Money makin', money money makin'
Super disco, disco breakin'
Money makin', money money makin'
Super disco, disco breakin'

Sometimes I like to brag, sometimes I'm soft spoken
When I'm in Holland I eat the pannenkoeken
I got the spice you bring the sauce
And you can kiss my ass you funky boss
Now that you got what you want, you want more
Well I'll be with the hammer and the nail at your door
With these funky beats I be goin' head huntin'
Shouts to my peeps let me know if you feel something
'Cause I can give you all you need
A little beat for the rhythm and some words to read
Let me tell you now that's my favorite shit
"And when I got a new rhyme I just say..."
So!

Money makin', money money makin'
Super disco, disco breakin'
Money makin', money money makin'
Super disco disco breakin'

Led Zeppelin - Over The Hills And Far Away

Hey lady, you got the love I need
Maybe more than enough.
Oh Darling... walk a while with me
You've got so much...

Many have I loved, many times been bitten
Many times I've gazed along the open road.

Many times I've lied, many times I've listened
Many times I've wondered how much there is to know.

Many dreams come true and some have silver linings
I live for my dream and a pocketful of gold.

Mellow is the man who knows what he's been missing
Many many men can't see the open road.

Many is a word that only leaves you guessing
Guessing 'bout a thing you really ought to know, ooh!
You really ought to know...

The Cure - Just One Kiss

I remember the time that you rained all night
The queen of Siam in my arms
Remember the time that the islands sank
But nobody opened their eyes

Remember that time that the trees fell down
The wood crashing through the wall
Remember the sound that could wake the dead
But nobody woke up at all

Somebody died for this
Somebody died for just one kiss

Remember the time that the sky went black
We waited alone on the sands
Remember the taste of the raging sea
But nobody held out their hands

Somebody died for this
Somebody died
For just one kiss

Just one kiss
Just one kiss

Deftones - Poltergeist

What can I say
I think I had enough
I think you keep playing to play
Knowing that I feel sick
C'mon just say it
Just say you like to play
This game
Just to drive me wild

I let
You pretend
But you know
Truth is that
I love you to death
Like you love this game

This time
There's a common thread

And so I sit
And watch you play dumb I'd like to see
You play with the odds
On your plate instead
Come on just say it
Just say you like to keep this pace
Just to drive me wild

I let
You pretend
But you know
Truth is that
I love you to death
Like you love this game
It keeps me hanging tight

What can I say
I think your head's fucked
Go on drive me wild

This time
There's a constant theme
This time
There's a common thread
That keeps me hanging tight
And it
Tells me something's right

What can I say
I fuckin' had enough
I think you just play what you play
Knowing that I feel sick
C'mon just say it
Say you like to play this game
Cuz it drives me wild

Pearl Jam - Sad

All the photographs were peeling
And colors turned to gray
He stayed... in his room with memories for days
He faced... an undertow of futures laid to waste
Embraced... by the loss of what he could not replace

There is no reason that she passed
And there is no god with a plan
It's sad... and his loneliness is proof
It's sad... he could only love you
It's sad

The door swings to a passing fable
A fate we may delay
We say... holding on...delivered in our own brace
He let

Placebo - Bosco

I love you more than any man, but something's getting in the way.
I do you harm because I can for the second time today.
Victims we are not of happenstance, but you're a victim all the same.
Stuck inside a circumstance with your confusion and your blame.

And when I get drunk, you take me home and keep me safe from harm.
When I get drunk, you take me home.

I ask you for another second chance, but then I drink it all away.
And I get bellicose when you react full of frustration and dismay.
I was so delicate when we began, so tender when I spoke your name.
But now I'm nothing but a partisan to my compulsion and my shame.

And when I get drunk, you take me home and keep me safe from harm.
When I get drunk, you take me home.

You know, I'm grateful, I appreciate.
But in fact, it's baleful how I suck you dry.
How I suck you dry.
How I suck you dry.
How I suck you.
How I suck you dry.
How I suck you dry.
How I suck you dry.

I love you more than any man, but I seem to lay it all to waste.
I do you harm because I can with a joke in questionable taste.
I've such duplicity at my command, so I keep on lying to your face,
Then I run away to wonderland, and disappear without trace.

And when I get drunk, you take me home and keep me safe from harm.
When I get drunk, you take me home.

You know, I'm grateful, I appreciate..
But, in fact, it's baleful how I suck you dry.
How I suck you dry.
How I suck you dry.
How I suck you.

Cat Power - No Sense

Do you remember
Do you remember
That night at context
Making up shit
Like we were animals

We made no sense
No sense
We had no sex

Can you see, can you see, can you see
Can you see, can you see, can you see
The moon is so hollow
What's the use
When I can see right through you
What's the use

All the hearts that touch your cheek
How they jump they move they embarrass
All the hearts that touch your cheek
How they jump they move they embarrass
They make no sense, no sense, no sense
No sense, we had no sex

R.E.M. - ÜBerlin

Hey now, take your pills and
Hey now, make your breakfast
Hey now, comb your hair and off to work
Crash land, no illusions, no collision, no intrusion
My imagination runs away

I know, I know, I know what I am chasing
I know, I know, I know that this is changing me

I am flying on a star into a meteor tonight
I am flying on a star, star, star
I will make it through the day
And then the day becomes the night
I will make it through the night

Hey now, take the U-Bahn, five stops, change the station
Hey now, don't forget that change will save you
Hey now, count a thousand-million people, that's astounding
Chasing through the city with their stars on bright

I know, I know, I know what I am chasing
I know, I know, I know that this is changing me

I am flying on a star into a meteor tonight
I am flying on a star, star, star
I will make it through the day
And then the day becomes the night
I will make it through the night

I don't mind repeating, I am not complete
I have never been the gifted type
Hey, man, tell me something, are you off to somewhere?
Do you want to go with me tonight?

I know, I know, I know that this is changing
We walk the streets to feel the ground I'm chasing: ÜBerlin

I am flying on a star into a meteor tonight
I am flying on a star, star, star
I will make it through the day
And then the day and then the day becomes the night
I will make it through the night

Siouxsie And The Banshees - The Last Beat Of My Heart

In the sharp gust of love my memory stirred
When time wreathed a rose a garland of shame
It's thorn my only delight war torn
Afraid to speak, we dare to breathe

Majestic, imperial a bridge of sighs
Solitude sails in a wave of forgiveness
On angels wings

Reach out your hands, don't turn your back
Don't walk away
How in the world, can I wish for this?
Never to be torn apart
Close to you 'till the last beat of my heart

At the close of day the sunset cloaks
These words in shadow play
Here and now, long and loud
My heart cries out
And the naked bone of an echo says
Don't walk away

Reach out your hands I'm just a step away
How in the world can I wish for this?
Never to be torn apart
Close to you till the last beat of my heart

How in the world can I wish for this?
Never to be torn apart till the last beat
Till the last fleeting beat of my heart

Iron Maiden - Flash Of The Blade

As a young boy chasing dragons with your wooden sword so mighty,
You're St. George or you're David and you always killed the beast.
Times change very quickly,
and you had to grow up early,
A house in smoking ruins and the bodies at your feet.

You'll die as you lived
In a flash of the blade,
In a corner forgotten by no one.
You lived for the touch
For the feel of the steel
One man, and his honor.

The smell of resigned leather
The steely iron mask
As you cut and thrust and parried at the fencing master's call.
He taught you all he knew
To fear no mortal man
and now you'll wreak your vengeance in the
Screams of evil men.

You'll die as you lived
In a flash of the blade,
In a corner forgotten by no one.
You lived for the touch
For the feel of the steel
One man, and his honor.
