Somewhere Only We Know

I walked across an empty land
I knew the pathway like the back of my hand
I felt the earth beneath my feet
Sat by the river and it made me complete

Oh, simple thing, where have you gone?
I'm getting old and I need something to rely on
So tell me when you're gonna let me in
I'm getting tired and I need somewhere to begin

I came across a fallen tree
I felt the branches of it looking at me
Is this the place we used to love?
Is this the place that I've been dreaming of?

Oh, simple thing, where have you gone?
I'm getting old and I need something to rely on
So tell me when you're gonna let me in
I'm getting tired and I need somewhere to begin

And if you have a minute, why don't we go
Talk about it somewhere only we know?
This could be the end of everything
So why don't we go somewhere only we know?
Somewhere only we know...

ong ago
Long ago
and oh so far away
I fell in love with you
before the second show
your guitar
it sounds so sweet and clear
but you're not really there
it's just the radio

don't you remember you told me you love me baby
you said you'd be coming back this way again baby
baby baby baby baby oh baby
I love you, I really do

loneliness, is such a sad affair
and I can hardly wait
to be with you again
what to say
to make you come again
come back to me again
and play your sad guitar

don't you remember you told me you love me baby
you said you'd be coming back this way again baby
baby baby baby baby oh baby
I love you, I really do

don't you remember you told me you love me baby
you said you'd be coming back this way again baby
baby baby baby baby oh baby
I love you, I really do

"Moutak"

It's getting cold.
Thought it was too soon to tell but it was terribly old
and as the heartbeat slows to a heartless crawl.

The lights went out,
The lights went out
and darkness filled the house on a tiring night
under Long Island skies.

I thought I'd known the consequence,
but sweetness, can you believe this?
This mess we've made of it.
This mess we've made of it.
In years to come it might make sense
but sweetness, can you believe this?
What's become of it?
Just what's become of it?

Well if you hear this and you think you're ready,
meet me in Montauk where we'll write out in the sand,
"Here lies the destiny of two hurt souls afraid to be cured again."
That could be our epitaph.

I thought I'd known the consequence,
but sweetness, can you believe this?
This mess we've made of it.
This mess we've made of it.
In years to come it might make sense
but sweetness, can you believe this?
Just what's become of it?
Just what's become of it?

I thought I'd known the consequence,
but sweetness, can you believe this?
This mess we've made of it.
This mess we've made of it.
In years to come it might make sense
but sweetness, can you believe this?
What's become of it?
Just what's become of it?

I know (I know...)

I thought I'd known the consequence,
but sweetness, can you believe this?
This mess we've made of it.
This mess we've made of it.
In years to come it might make sense
but sweetness, did you foresee this?
What's become of it?
What's become...

Walking on Sunshine

I used to think maybe you loved me, now baby I'm sure
And I just can't wait till the day when you knock on my door
Now everytime I go for the mailbox, gotta hold myself down
Cause I just can't wait till you write me you're comin' around

Now I'm walking on sunshine (whoa oh)
I'm walking on sunshine (whoa oh)
I'm walking on sunshine (whoa oh)
And don't it feel good
All right now
And don't it feel good
Oh yeah

I used to think maybe you loved me, now I know that it's true
And I don't wanna spend my whole life just a waitin' for you
Now I don't want you back for the weekend, not back for a day (no no no)
I said baby I just want you back and I want you to stay

I'm walking on sunshine (whoa oh)
I'm walking on sunshine (whoa oh)
I'm walking on sunshine (whoa oh)
And don't it feel good

All right now
And don't it feel good
All right now

Walkin' On Sunshine Walkin' On Sunshine
I feel alive, I feel a love
I feel a love that's really real
I feel alive, I feel a love
I feel a love that's really real
I'm on sunshine baby (whoa, oh yeah)
I'm on sunshine baby (whoa)

I'm walking on sunshine (whoa oh)
I'm walking on sunshine (whoa oh)
I'm walking on sunshine (whoa oh)
And don't it feel good
(All Right Now)
And don't it feel good
(I say it, I say it, I say it again, now)
And don't it feel good
(All Right Now)
And don't it feel good...

Limp Bizkit

"Break Stuff"

Its just one of those days
When you don't wanna wake up
Everything is ******** sux
You don't really know why
But you want justify
Rippin' someone's head off
No human contact
And if you interact
Your life is on contract
Your best bet is to stay away ******** just one of those days!!

[chorus]
Its all about the he says she says bullshit
I think you better quit
Lettin' s**t slip
Or you'll be leavin with a fat lip
Its all about the he says she says bullshit
I think you better quit talkin that s**t
(Punk, so come and get it)
Its just one of those days
Feelin' like a freight train
First one to complain
Leaves with a blood stain
Damn right I'm a maniac
You better watch your back
Cuz I'm ********' up your program
And if your stuck up
You just lucked up
Next in line to get ******** up
Your best bet is to stay away ******** just one of those days!!

[chorus]

I feel like s**t
My suggestion is to keep your distance cuz right now im dangerous
We've all felt like s**t
And been treated like s**t
All those ******** that want to step up
I hope you know I pack a chain saw
I'll skin your a** raw
And if my day keeps goin' this way I just might break somethin' tonight...
I hope you know I pack a chain saw
I'll skin your a** raw
And if my day keeps goin' this way I just might break somethin' tonight...
I hope you know I pack a chain saw
I'll skin your a** raw
And if my day keeps goin' this way I just might break your ********' face tonight!!
Give me somethin' to break

Alice Cooper

The Awakening

I wake up in the basement
I'm so hungry
I'm dry
I must be here sleepwalking
Mustn't I?

Getting up from my easy chair, looking for my wife
Following a trail of crimson spots
That lead into the night

Suddenly I realize
I see it all through real eyes
These crimson spots are dripping from my hand
And ooh it makes me feel like a man

Only somewhat fitting because I woke up to a rather pleasant surprise.

By "a rather pleasant surprise" I mean "a nosebleed form nowhere".  

[Violaceous Vertigo]

Jonathan Coulton

Welcome to my secret lair on Skullcrusher Mountain
I hope that you’ve enjoyed your stay so far
I see you’ve met my assistant Scarface
His appearance is quite disturbing
But I assure you he’s harmless enough
He’s a sweetheart, calls me master
And he has a way of finding pretty things and bringing them to me

I’m so into you
But I’m way too smart for you
Even my henchmen think I’m crazy
I’m not surprised that you agree
If you could find some way to be
A little bit less afraid of me
You’d see the voices that control me from inside my head
Say I shouldn’t kill you yet

I made this half-pony half-monkey monster to please you
But I get the feeling that you don’t like it
What’s with all the screaming?
You like monkeys, you like ponies
Maybe you don’t like monsters so much
Maybe I used too many monkeys
Isn’t it enough to know that I ruined a pony making a gift for you?

I’m so into you
But I’m way too smart for you
Even my henchmen think I’m crazy
I’m not surprised that you agree
If you could find some way to be
A little bit less afraid of me
You’d see the voices that control me from inside my head
Say I shouldn’t kill you yet

Picture the two of us alone inside my golden submarine
While up above the waves my doomsday squad ignites the atmosphere
And all the fools who live their foolish lives may find it quite explosive
But it won’t mean half as much to me if I don’t have you here

You know it isn’t easy living here on Skullcrusher Mountain
Maybe you could cut me just a little slack
Would it kill you to be civil?
I’ve been patient, I’ve been gracious
And this mountain is covered with wolves
Hear them howling, my hungry children
Maybe you should stay and have another drink and think about me and you

I’m so into you
But I’m way too smart for you
Even my henchmen think I’m crazy
I’m not surprised that you agree
If you could find some way to be
A little bit less afraid of me
You’d see the voices that control me from inside my head
Say I shouldn’t kill you yet
I shouldn’t kill you yet
I shouldn’t kill you yet

Because I've been feeling a bit crazy lately.

This was a triumph.
I'm making a note here:
HUGE SUCCESS.
It's hard to overstate
my satisfaction.
Aperture Science
We do what we must
because we can.
For the good of all of us.
Except the ones who are dead.
But there's no sense crying
over every mistake.
You just keep on trying
till you run out of cake.
And the Science gets done.
And you make a neat gun.
For the people who are
still alive.


I'm not even angry.
I'm being so sincere right now.
Even though you broke my heart.
And killed me.
And tore me to pieces.
And threw every piece into a fire.
As they burned it hurt because
I was so happy for you!
Now these points of data
make a beautiful line.
And we're out of beta.
We're releasing on time.
So I'm GLaD. I got burned.
Think of all the things we learned
for the people who are
still alive.

Go ahead and leave me.
I think i prefer to stay inside.
maybe you'll find someone else
to help you.
maybe Black Mesa...
THAT WAS A JOKE, HA HA, FAT CHANCE.
Anyway this cake is great.
It's so delicious and moist
look at me still talking when theres science to do
when i look out there
it makes me glad I'm not you
i've experiments to run
there is research to be done
on the people who are
still alive.


and believe me I am still alive
I'm doing science and I'm still alive
i feel fantastic and I'm still alive
while your dying ill be still alive
and when your dead i will be still alive
still alive
still alive

Hilarious. SarcasticGamer is my hero for this.

Quote:

Hey Mr. Thompson
(To the Tune of "Hey There Delilah" by the Plain White T's)

Hey Mr Thompson
What’s it like to be demented?
Suing folks like Rockstar Games with claims that you’ve invented
Yes, it’s true
Even went after Kotaku
Those guys pwned you

Hey Mr Thompson
What kind of lawyer are you?
Ever wonder why so many states want to dispar you?
Such an ace
Dude, have you ever won a case?
What a disgrace

Oh, please get some therapy
Oh, now you’re suing me
Oh, please get some therapy
Oh, now you’re suing me
Now you’re suing me

Hey Mr Thompson
It looks like you’ve been busy
Sending porn to judges, suing Coke for being fizzy
Why stop there?
Go get whoever does your hair
It’s a solar flare

Hey Mr Thompson
You really raised a racket
When you sued Janet Reno ’cause she touched you on your jacket
Must’ve hurt
Touched by a girl who looks like Lurch
A real red alert

Oh, please get some therapy
Oh, now you’re suing me
Oh, please get some therapy
Oh, now you’re suing me

You say you do it for the kids
But can you name a thing you did that didn’t fail and go right down in flames?
How ’bout you let me decide which games my kids should be denied
and you go sue the parents, not the games
‘Cause every time you sue Rockstar, and act so righteous and bizarre
They sell a million copies of the game
And you’re to blame

Hey Mr Thompson
That sound you hear is laughter
from every single company that you’ve ever gone after
Now we’ll see
How long it takes ’till you sue me
Hey Mr Thompson
It’s free speech
You Mr Thompson don’t scare me
You don’t scare me

Oh, please get some therapy
Oh, now you’re suing me
Oh, please get some therapy
Oh, now you’re sueing me
Now you’re suing me

14 Year Old Girls

As night falls, we left Japan
With a-half-a-ton of contraband
Tight black shirts and pink armbands
Don’t tell our parents, they wouldn’t understand

(Maybe it’s our ADD,
Or the rush of the secret inside of me
Or being the first to play
All of Tokyo’s latest games)

Don’t play dumb,
You’re not ignorant of its happening;
Us cool sexy seniors
Involved in
Illegal Game Trafficking

(They won't understand)

Maybe its our ADD,
Or the rush of the secret inside of me
Or being the first to play
All of Tokyo’s latest games

Don’t play dumb,
You’re not ignorant of its happening;
Us cool sexy seniors
Involved in
Illegal Game Trafficking

Guns to our heads,
The Katsu clan
Has different plans.
Operation lives in Japan. . .

Massive angst because Brawl is still not out here in the States. DAMN YOU, JAPAN.

Angtoria - God Has A Plan For Us All

Let his holy choirs sing in sodomy, praise be!
Surrender your body and soul unto him.
Demoralize me!

So he crept into my room,
Whispered my name, took my innocence away.
I'm only five, a pervert's concubine.

God has a plan for us all.
I've been touched by the hand of God.
My sordid tale, his lies are blasphemy.

You do not believe in him, but he believes in you.
He wants you to repent all your sins.
Let him in, inside you!

God has a plan for us all.
You are one of God's children.
Get on your knees; serve him well my child.

I've fallen prey to the devil in disguise.

God has a plan for us all.
Don't say a word, or you'll go to Hell.
God has a plan for you all.
Open up for him! Let Jesus in!
His sordid tale, his lies are blasphemy!

E-40's verse

Quit bumping your gums spark your tongue keep a real pimp game up out your mouth
If I get on your line and dump two on your spine like it a 80's drought
Im about that Valley Jo
Po Po be throwing tantrums
Cause I live up on a hill with a view on a acre in a big white who white mansion
I be all up in the dirty
Where they cook them fried turkeys
Be up in Houston with Mike Jones and Paul Wall
You want that fast quota
I want that slow nickle
Everything I got I worked for so quit hating on me *****
Look at the trees, look at the sky, look at the moon
Look at these keys, look at my ride, imma tycoon (tycoooon)
From the land of the gangsters and pimps and hustlers
Where a hundred will get you three hundred dollars worth of HUBBAS
Every time I look around Every time I look around somebody done bit my style
Wanna smile in my face and take my place hate but it aint gone be no way no how

You acting like a trick b***h

Tech's 2nd verse

Jelly sickle
look at how that jelly trickles
Down his elbows
And you can smell those
Playa haters from Calabassas to Melrose
During his jail pulls
And knocked him out of his shell toes
When I walk into the spot them suckas sucking on them sickles
Hate to see me shining get to tripping when they off they ripple
I get these rappers dripping jelly to the third degree
Most of them in my city never know me but yet they heard of me
At the BET awards
chilling with the Federation never forget the woman at the door giving
away the shoes didn’t really want me to have em man I had a ticket I had to grab em
Come to find out I was in a rhyme battle a couple years ago
here’s the blow cause I rake up dough
She was one of the women I left behind up at the wake up show
Congratulate me cause im A go getta
For sho hitta E 40 and Nina some flow spitter’s
But that don’t mean you gotta hate
Jealousy’s a sickness take another lick Mitch
You actin like a trick b***h


Take a lick of this
Jelly sickle sickness
To much will make you sick
You acting like a trick biatch
Take a lick of this
Jelly sickle sickness
Jelly sickle sickness
You acting like a trick biatch

There's a lot of jealousy floating around me. I have absolutely no idea why. Also, I'm listening to a lot of rap lately. Something I honestly thought I would never do. > .>;;

Gold Dust

sights and sounds
pull me back down
another year

I was here
I was here

whipping past
the reflecting pool
me and you
skipping school

and we make it up
as we go along
we make it up we
go along

you said -
you raced from Langley -
pulling me underneath
a cherry blossom canopy

do I have
of course I have,
beneath my raincoat,
I have your photographs

and the sun on your face
I'm freezing that frame

and somewhere Alfie cries
and says, "Enjoy his every smile
you can see in the dark
through the eyes of Laura Mars."
how did it go so fast
you'll say
as we are looking back
and then we'll understand
we held gold dust
in our hands

sights and sounds
pull me back down
another year

I was here
I was here

gaslights
glow in the street
(flickering past)
twilight held us
in her palm
as we walked along

and we make it up
as we go along
we make it up as we go along

letting names
hang in the air
what color hair
(auburn crimson)
autumn knowingly stared

and the day that she came
I'm freezing that frame
I'm freezing that frame

and somewhere Alfie smiles
and says "Enjoy her every cry
you can see in the dark
through the eyes of Laura Mars."

how did it go so fast
you'll say as we are looking back
and then we'll understand
we held gold dust
in our hands

in our hands

I have to put this up because A) I love Once, the movie and the music, that is, and I would love to see Glen Hansard and Marketa Irglova perform, and B) THEY WON THE OSCAR FOR ORIGINAL SONG! ROCK ON!

Glen Hansard and Marketa Irglova

Falling Slowly

I don't know you
But I want you
All the more for that
Words fall through me
And always fool me
And I can't react
And games that never amount
To more than they're meant
Will play themselves out

Take this sinking boat and point it home
We've still got time
Raise your hopeful voice you have a choice
You've made it now

Falling slowly, eyes that know me
And I can't go back
Moods that take me and erase me
And I'm painted black
You have suffered enough
And warred with yourself
It's time that you won

Take this sinking boat and point it home
We've still got time
Raise your hopeful voice you had a choice
You've made it now

Take this sinking boat and point it home
We've still got time
Raise your hopeful voice you had a choice
You've made it now
Falling slowly sing your melody
I'll sing along
