Speak in Lyrics

femmedyke · 05-13-2010, 09:32 AM

Saw Cinderella in a party dress,
..........................she was looking for a nightgown.

[I saw the devil wrapping up his hands,
he's getting ready for the showdown.]

....................................I saw the ending where they turned the page,
....................................I threw my money and I ran away.
....................................Sent to the valley of the great divide

Out where the dreams all hide.
.................................................. ......Out where the wind don't blow,
.................................................. ..................................Out here the good girls die.

......................................And the sky moves slow

......................................Out here the bird don't sing
......................................Out here the field don't blow

......................................Out here the bell don't ring
......................................Out hear the bell don't ring

......................................Out here the good girls die

Well sometimes in the evenings I start to get that feeling
Like I'm empty inside
I know I'm doin' good now but tonight I'm headed downtown
Down by the riverside
I sit underneath the freeway with an old friend from the old days
And a bottle of wine
Well he used to call me "Big Time", and he knew someday that I'd shine
Said he'd seen all the signs
He said . .

"Keep yourself to yourself
Keep your bedroll dry
Boy you never can tell,what the shadows hide,
Keep one eye on the ground,pick up whatever you find,
'Cause you got no place to fall,when your back's to the wall"

He's gettin' old and it's showin' when I asked him how it's goin'
He said "I've seen better I guess
I've been rained on, I've been frozen, but this here's the life I've chosen
If it just wasn't for the loneliness"

Now this river suits me to a T. but if you're trying to raise a family
It ain't no place to be
There's a kid down by the dump there, ought to be in grade school somewhere
Now he hangs out with me
And I told him . . ."

"Keep yourself to yourself,
Keep your bedroll dry,
Boy you never can tell,what the shadows hide,
Keep one eye on the ground,pick up whatever you find,
'Cause you got no place to fall,when your back's to the wall"

Well we finished off the bottle and I told him,"Joe I think I ought to
Be headed uptown"
Well it was late, and I'd been drinkin', drivin' home I got to thinkin'
'Bout what's been going down

Cause they're nervous down on Wall Street, but they're trying to keep it upbeat
Or maybe they just don't care
But down at the river eyes are burnin' cause they feel the tables turnin'
So if you wind up down there . . .

Gemme · 05-13-2010, 07:46 PM

I'm not afraid to take a stand
Everybody come take my hand
We'll walk this road together, through the storm
Whatever weather, cold or warm
Just let you know that, you're not alone
Holla if you feel that you've been down the same road

Yeah, It's been a ride...
I guess I had to go to that place to get to this one
Now some of you might still be in that place
If you're trying to get out, just follow me
I'll get you there

You can try and read my lyrics off of this paper before
I lay 'em
But you won't take this thing out these words before I
say 'em
Cause ain't no way I'm let you stop me from causing
mayhem
When I say 'em or do something I do it, I don't give a
damn
What you think, I'm doing this for me, so fuck the
world
Feed it beans, it's gassed up, nothing's stopping me
I'mma be what I set out to be, without a doubt
undoubtedly
And all those who look down on me I'm tearing down your
balcony
No if ands or buts don't try to ask him why or how can
he
From Infinite down to the last Relapse album he's still
shit and
Whether he's on salary, paid hourly
Until he bows out or he shit's his bowels out of him
Whichever comes first, for better or worse
He's married to the game, like a fuck you for Christmas
His gift is a curse, forget the earth he's got the urge
To pull his dick from the dirt and fuck the universe

Ok quit playin' with the scissors and shit, and cut the
crap
I shouldn't have to rhyme these words in the rhythm for
you to know it's a rap
You said you was king, you lied through your teeth
For that fuck your feelings, instead of getting crowned
you're getting capped
And to the fans, I'll never let you down again, I'm
back
I promise to never go back on that promise, in fact
Let's be honest, that last Relapse CD was "ehhhh"
Perhaps I ran them accents into the ground

Relax, I ain't going back to that now
All I'm tryna say is get back, click-clack BLAOW
Cause I ain't playin' around
There's a game called circle and I don't know how
I'm way too up to back down
But I think I'm still tryna figure this crap out
Thought I had it mapped out but I guess I didn't
This fucking black cloud's still follow's me around
But it's time to exercise these demons
These motherfuckers are doing jumping jacks now!

I'm not afraid to take a stand
Everybody come take my hand
We'll walk this road together, through the storm
Whatever weather, cold or warm
Just let you know that, you're not alone
Holla if you feel that you've been down the same road

Who'da thought that love could be so caffeinated?

shadows papa · 05-14-2010, 08:18 AM

Is love so fragile...
and the heart so hollow
Shatter with words...
impossible to follow
You're saying I'm fragile...I try not to be
I search only...for something I can't see

I have my own life...and I am stronger
Than you know
But I carry this feeling
When you walked into my house
That you won't be walking out the door
Still I carry this feeling
When you walked into my house
That you won't be walking out the door

Lovers forever...face to face
My city or mountains
Stay with me stay
I need you to love me
I need you today
Give to me your leather...
Take from me...my lace

You in the moonlight
With your sleepy eyes
Could you ever love a man like me
And you were right
When I walked into your house
I knew I'd never want to leave
Sometimes I'm a strong man
Sometimes cold and scared
And sometimes I cry
But that time I saw you
I knew with you to light my nights
Somehow I'd get by
First time I saw you
I knew with you to light my nights
Somehow I would get by

Lovers forever...face to face
My city or mountains
Stay with me stay
I need you to love me
I need you today
Give to me your leather
Take from me...my lace

Lovers forever...face to face
My city or mountains...stay with me stay
I need you to love me...I need you to stay
Give to me your leather
Take from me...my lace
Take from me...my lace
Take from me...my lace

You pack your sweaters for the fall
and the flowers die in their garden rows
and the warm words can't help at all,
everybody knows...

You're trying to find a compromise
between remembering and learning to forget,
so now just pouring a glass of water
is like trying to move boulders with your breath.

It's so hard to see it all,
she tries to hold you in the night,
but you're shaking you're crying out,
praying for sleep to bless your bedside.

That's right, so it goes,
the whole world folds over you.
Pack your handkerchief and your best shoes...

Reconciliation of guilt and grief,
it's the hardest battle you've tried to win
and now every year you grit your teeth
as it cuts you underneath your skin.

Oh and Sunday mornings don't bring you solace,
you are firm in your disbelief
but you hold tight to that old promise;
you are waiting for the spring,
you are waiting for the spring.

That's right, so it goes,
the whole world folds over you.
Pack your handkerchief and your best shoes...

Don't leave me breathing,
no not alone,
there's so much more I meant to tell you.
I went by with flowers, just to see,
but that granite told me you're still gone....

Don't leave me breathing,
no not alone,
there's so much more I meant to tell you...
I went by with flowers, just to see,
but the granite told me you're still gone....

TickledPink · 05-14-2010, 09:49 AM

I've spent my life following things I cannot see
And just when I catch up to them, they slip away from me
I've been down a thousand trails I've never walked before
I found out that without fail, they lead me to your door

And the world keep turning round and round
It leaves me hanging in the air
My heart keeps turning upside down
And you're still standin' there

Lately I see all the signs, I feel it in the wind
The same thing happens every time that you come back again
I admit that there are nights when I sit up and cry
But sometimes I turn out the lights and pray you'll pass me by

Since you're gone my empty arms have nothing left to hold
And your memory cannot keep me warm but it never leaves me cold

Epicpwn · 05-15-2010, 05:21 AM

You can't play on broken strings.
You can't feel anything
That your heart don't want to feel
I can't tell you something that ain't real.

Oh, the truth hurts and lies worse
How can I give anymore
When I love you a little less than before?
