Post a random lyric

^ Strangely, that's actually my favourite Foo Fighters song.

--

You know it's true,
I'm walking through the same broken world as you
Can't you see?
You're living in the same tangled web as me...

Girls, all I really want is girls
And in the morning it's girls
'Cause in the evening it's girls

I like the way that they walk
And it's chill to hear em talk
And I can always make them smile
From White Castle to the Nile

Strangely, that's my favourite song by the Fighters Also (Except for maybe Disenchanted Lullaby)

Liberate the people that you hate
Then cut yourself again
Elevate then drop back down
And see which ones remain
Remember all that she can say
Is that she knows she wants it

You'll make it through
With another point of view again
You'll make it through
With another point

Accusation, does yes mean no?
Or have you changed your mind?
Kill the nation before it grows
And be one of a kind
Remember all that she can say
Is that she knows she wants it

You'll make it through
With another point of view again
You'll make it through
With another point

Pretend the world's an ocean
Oh, I'm drowning
Pretend that I'm pollution
Oh, I'm dying
Pretend the steak's a cowboy
And the kiss will kill you

You'll make it through
With another point of view again
You'll make it through
With another point

You look like a real human being

But you don't have a mind of your own

Yeah, you can talk, you can breathe 

You can work, you can stitch, you can sew

But you're brainwashed 

Yes you are, yes you are 

Get down on your knees



You've got a job and a house 

And a wife, and your kids and a car

Yeah, you're conditioned to be 

What they want you to be

And be happy to be where you are

Yes you are 

Get down on your knees 

Get down on your knees



The aristocrats and bureaucrats

Are dirty rats 

For making you what you are
They're up there and you're down here

You're on the ground and they're up with the stars 

All your life they've kicked you around and pushed you around 

Till you can't take any more 

To them you're just a speck of dirt

But you don't want to get up off the floor

Mister you're just brainwashed



They give you social security
Tax saving benefits that grow at maturity 

Yeah, you're contented to be 

What they want you to be 

And to do what they want you to 

Yes you are, yes you are

Get down on your knees

To me, Lonely As You seems like the kind of song that most people would skip over because it seems a little b-sidish and doesn't really fit the album, but for those of us who have listened properly and repeatedly, it's incredible.

Woah... and then you go and post one of my favourite Silverchair songs! You're scaring me, man! That track was my favourite when the album came out and I was just some weird 9 year old obsessed with Silverchair. haha. So great.

I'm not the way that you found me,
I'm neither here nor there,
One day, I'm happy and healthy,
Next, I ain't doing so well...

My god, it's one of my favourite songs by them also! Great minds think alike?


I've been looking for a timelord,
To take me back to when I was a god,
Blind saviours would recognise,
That my faith it dissipates when my ideas collide,

I've been searching for a way out,
Find solace in this house of abuse,
I wanna tear the comic strip strip down,
I sleep on my feet so I can take it lying down,

I keep tryna hitch a ride home
Tryna turn a trick to pay back a loan,
Keep finding thieves in my bed,
You know they're only guilty when you catch them red handed,

Peach, plum, princess pea,
Punching holes in the galaxy,
Day tripping hypnotist,
Clairvoyant androgynist,
Push me through the open door,
Communicate in semaphore,
Mind, bending, ending tricks,
Every plot must have a twist,
Promised me you'd meet me there,
Promised me with cushioned stare,
Promised me I could trust you,
Glass slipper, Chinese shoe,
Stole stolen parts to fix,
Brick walls with broken sticks,
Cried poor on Chapel st,
Walked a mile in angel's feet,
Sardonic, caustic child,
Truth industry bonfire,
Blow people off my chest,
Last breath, he must confess,

I've been looking for a timelord,
To take me back to when I was a god,
Blind saviours would recognise,
That my faith it dissipates when my ideas collide,

I've been searching for a way out,
Find solace in this house of abuse,
I wanna tear the comic strip strip down,
I sleep on my feet so I can take it lying down

You killed him, I don't care
Keep a promise, you would too
Keep a promise, even you
See the silence in his head
He is coming, I don't care

We're not gonna make it, well I don't mind
Wouldn't want to fake it, but I have this time
Giving conversations, to whom they don't know
Taking medications till my stomach's full.

Your eyes shined bright when you were a kid,
Your sisters loved you and all that you did,
Big brother, big brother, don't worry a bit
Your flame has not faded since the day it was lit.

FOX: [half-moaning] "You've worn me like an albatross,
I've only slowed you down.
You could've long traded in your braided crown by now,
You could've found that Anabaptist girl you always used to go on about."

I've never done good things,
I've never done bad things,
I never did anything out of the blue,
Want an axe to break the ice,
Wanna come down right now.

You still cross my mind from time to time. And I mostly smile.
Still so set on finding out where we went wrong and why
So I retrace our every step with an unsure pen,
trying to figure out what my head thinks,
but my head just ain't what it used to be.
And then again, what's the point anyway?

Hey Ah Na Na
Innocence is over
Hey Ah Na Na
Over

Hey Ah Na Na
Ignorance is spoken
Hey Ah Na Na
Spoken

Hey Ah Na Na
Confidence is broken
Hey Ah Na Na
Broken

Hey Ah Na Na
Sustenance is stolen
Hey Ah Na Na
Stolen

Hey Ah Na Na
Arrogance is potent
Hey Ah Na Na
Potent, yeah

What I see is unreal
I've written my own part
Eat of the apple, so young
I'm crawling back to start

It's only been a year
But it feels like a lifetime here
How's it been for you?
Does it feel like a lifetime too?
What would you do now in light of it all?
I don't regret it in spite of it all
If I can't convince you then nobody can I guess

I've got too much time on my hands
But you don't understand
Or you won't understand

Would I make it right?
Would it make you less uptight?
What would it achieve?
What should I put up my sleeve?
What did you think would come out of it all?
That we'd quit pretending we doubted it all?
Oh you don't make me nervous, hell nobody does these days

I've got too much time on my hands
But you don't understand
Or you won't understand
I've got too much time on my hands
But you don't understand
Or you won't understand

Are you ready, are you ready, are you ready for this?
Should I shake your hand or should I give you a kiss?
Is this everything you always hoped it would be?
We'll see...

I've got too much time on my hands
But you don't understand
Or you won't understand
I've got too much time on my hands
But you don't understand
Or you won't understand.

I saw the autumn leaves peel up off the street,
Take wing on the balmy breeze and sweep you off your feet.
And you blushed as they scooped you up on sugar maple wings,
To gaze down on the city below, ablaze with wondrous things.
Downy feathers kiss your face and flutter everywhere.
Reality is a lovely place, but I wouldn't want to live there.
I wouldn't wanna live there.

What a beautiful face
I have found in this place
That is circling all round the sun
And when we meet on a cloud
I'll be laughing out loud
I'll be laughing with everyone I see
Can't believe how strange it is to be anything at all

Neutral Milk Hotel

And I'll forget the world that I knew,
But I swear I won't forget you.
Oh, if my voice could reach
Back through the past
I'd whisper in your ear;
"Oh darling, I wish you were here."

she looked into your eyes
and saw what laid beneath
don't try to save yourself
the circle in complete
we're reaching out and tell you
nothing else can judge me

Fading gently,
Soaking through,
and starting not to show at all
We're reaching out and to take you,
Nothing else can touch me

Honey, you are a rock
Upon which I stand.
And I come here to talk
I hope you understand

That green eyes
Yeah the spotlight, shines upon you
And how could anybody deny you?

I'll start this off
without any words
I got so high
Scratched 'till I bled
Love myself, better than you
I know it's wrong
so what should I do

The finest day
that I ever had
was when I learnt
to cry on demand
love myself, better than you
I know it's wrong
so what should I do

I'm on a plain
I can't complain
I'm on a plain
I can't complain

^^^^ Two of my three favourite bands make up the last two posts! Let's wrap it up with my third!

Are you here forever standing by the road?
With the benefit of feeling on your own,
Where the river ends, the sun is coming down,
Through the Vision Valley,
Waiting to be found.

I'd like to add a fourth, if that's okay

Unsuspecting brother, doesn't know what to do
When everything just falls to the ground
He runs to find some cover
He doesn't have a clue
That his friend will never be found
When he's informed, that he

Will never see the boy
will never see the boy
Never see him open his eyes

“I’ve flown across the sea where the soldierfish swam,
I’ve slept inside the shoe of the world’s tallest man,
I saw Charlotte Corday with the knife in her hand;
It was nothing new
I’ve perched on Steele, Dakota’s sandhill crane
I flew among the Paiutes before the Mormon rain,
I was in Virginia City for the stringing up of Clubfoot Lane
But I’ve never seen anything like you.”
All untied, by and by!
But I’d pour the matrimony wine
All untied, by and by!
so if you’re ever so inclined
If you're ever so inclined...”

Look at my horse, my horse is amazing
Give it a lick,
Mmm it tastes just like raisins
Have a stroke on it's mane it turns into a plane
And then it turns back again when you tug on it's winky
Eww that's dirty!
Do you really think so?
Well I better not show you where the lemonade is made
Sweet Lemonade, Mmm Sweet lemonade
Sweet lemonade, yeah sweet lemonade

Get on my horse, i'll take you round the Universe and all the other places too
I think you'll find that the Universe pretty much covers everything
Shut up woman, get on my horse
