'Clangour and Flutes' by Sin Fang Bous

Eat the young, taste the blood
They don't know a thing about us
Shake their bones, throw them out
We make something new out of things lost

I will be the lumberjack and you will be the tree

If you go chasing rabbits and you know you've gone too far
The lines in your hands are the map to show you where you are

I will be the boat and you will be the sea

And if you would find feelings where should be none
Bury them deep before you do something that can't be undone

I will be the fire and you will be the home

Any fluke just might damn off the look those eyes will see
A cold wind's blowing, the cold wind that came with me

I will be the forest and you will be the dead tree

Eat the young, taste the blood
Stab the night with water knives
Shake their bones let them know that there are rodents in their eyes

I will be the lumberjack and you will be the tree


and I think this one has been posted already, but I don't care

'Golden Hair' by Syd Barrett

Lean out your window, golden hair
I heard you singing in the midnight air
My book is closed, I read no more
Watching the fire dance, on the floor
Ive left my book,
Ive left my room

For I heard you singing through the gloom
Singing and singing, a merry air
Lean out the window, golden hair...


actually, the poet James Joyce is the author of these lyrics

She's blonde,
Comes along the sidewalk.

She's Blonde,
Leave a trail of blue and black,
Up to you fighting back.

She's Blonde,
Steel chains,
A noose of charms on our necks.

I find out nothing when we talk and sit,
Blue heart passion and watch the set.

Easy to fall, when part of your skull starts to break away,
Cheaters walk, down the block behind this evil street.

She's a white girl well I'm living with a white girl,
She's a white girl well I'm living with a white girl-

Nineteen,
Nineteen.. losing her man to an old girl.

Nineteen,
Drain every beer left over at home,
and listen to ghosts in the other room.

I Can't!
Why not? You're alone inside his keeping.

Oh I'll replace your drunk old man,
Sit in the parking lot and hold your hand.

Easy to fall, when part of your skull starts to break away...
Drugged and in love out at a club pulling me outside.

She's a white girl, well I'm living with a white girl,
She's a white girl, well I'm living with a white girl-

Easy to fall, when part of your skull starts to break away...
drugged and in love out at a club pulling me outside.

She's a white girl well I'm living with a white girl,
She's a white girl well I'm living with a white girl---

One eye in the sun, one in the night
Sleep tight, sleepwalk like honey, honey
Oh my, capital i love u
Put it in a letter honey
I could kiss you underwater
I could in the rearview mirror
Xo, took my heart and crossed it
Set it down and lost it
Set it down and lost it
Say it again...

Get the guns out, get the guns out
Get the guns out, get the guns out
Get the guns out, get the guns out
Your love is a deserter
Your love is a deserter

One eye in the sun, one eye in the night
Sleep tight, sleepwalk like honey, honey
When you want me, you got me where you want me again
Say it again!
If it's personal, say it again!

Get the guns out, get the guns out
Get the guns out, get the guns out
Get the guns out, get the guns out
Your love is a deserter
Your love is a deserter

Get the guns out, get the guns out
Get the guns out, get the guns out
Get the guns out, get the guns out
Get the guns out

You got one eye as white as a bride
The other eye, as black as the devil
It's alright!
Oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh!
Oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh!

Crossed wires, sparking a little
Start a house fire with us in the middle
It's alright!
Oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh!
Oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh!

Get the guns out, get the guns out
Get the guns out, get the guns out
Get the guns out, get the guns out
Your love is a deserter
Your love is a deserter

Your love is a deserter
Your love is a deserter

I don't, but those lyrics are just too thought provoking for me to deny.


You know that it would be untrue
You know that I would be a liar
If I was to say to you
Girl, we couldn't get much higher
Come on baby, light my fire


Not my favorite lyrics, but they describe my current situation aptly.

srsly

Well, I lived with one
Well, I lived with one, I lived with two,
I even lived with a third
I wanna tell you about number one
He was a miserable shitwringing turd
Like he reminded me of some evil gnome
Shakin hands was like shakin a hot, fat, oily bone
Holdin on for far too long
Yes he took me in, he took me in
He said that I looked pale and thin
I told him he looked fat
His lips were red and lickin wet
His house was roastin hot
In fact it was a fuckin slum
Scum! Scum!
Well then he hooked up with some slut from the same game
Black snow! Black snow!
Cocksuckstress, and I should know
Mean and vicious, her microphone always smelled suspicious
His and herpes bath towel type
If you know what I mean
I could not look at him, worm
He'd be takin a shower and who should walk in
He was the epitome of their type
Her middle name was Welcome, his was Wipe
Scum! Scum!
Well you're on the shit list
Thrust and twist, twist and screw
You gave me a bad review
And maybe you think that it's all just water under the bridge
Well my UNfriend, I'm the type that holds a grudge
I'm your creator
I think you fuckin traitor, chronic masturbator,
Shitlicker, user, self-abuser, jigger jigger!
What rock did you crawl from?
Which ..... did you come?
You Judas, Brutus, Vitus, Scum!
Hey four-eyes, come
That's right, it's a gun
Face is bubble, blood, and ...... street
Snowman with six holes clean into his fat fuckin guts
Psychotic drama mounts
Guts well deep then a spring is fount (?)
I unload into his eyes
Blood springs
Dead snow
Blue skies

break me in, teach us to cheat
and to lie, cover up
what shouldn't be shared?
all the truth's unwinding
scraping away at my mind
please stop asking me to describe

for one moment
i wish you'd hold your stage
with no feelings at all
open minded
i'm sure i used to be so free

self-expressed, exhausting for all
to see and to be
what you want and what you need
the truth's unwinding
scraping away at my mind
please stop asking me to describe

for one moment
i wish you'd hold your stage
with no feelings at all
open minded
i'm sure i used to be so free

for one moment
i wish you'd hold your stage
with no feelings at all
open minded
i'm sure i used to be so free

wash me away
clean your body of me
erase all the memories
they will only bring us pain
and i've seen, all i'll ever need

"Femme Fatale" - Velvet Underground & Nico


Here she comes, you better watch your step
She's going to break your heart in two, its true
It's not hard to realize
Just look into her false colored eyes
She builds you up to just put you down, what a clown
cause everybody knows (she's a femme fatale)
The things she does to please (she's a femme fatale)
She's just a little tease (she's a femme fatale)
See the way she walks
Hear the way she talks
You're written in her book
You're number 37, have a look
She's going to smile to make you frown, what a clown
Little boy, she's from the street
Before you start, you're already beat
She's gonna play you for a fool, yes its true
cause everybody knows (she's a femme fatale)
The things she does to please (she's a femme fatale)
Shes just a little tease (she's a femme fatale)
See the way she walks
Hear the way she talks

Composed by Lou Reed

It's late and I'm awake
Staring at the wall
Open up my window
My head floats out the door

No one else around
The shimmer takes my eye
I lift my head
I'm blinded by the sky

Feel my weight in front
Following the sound
It moves away so fast
I fall down to the ground

I know there's more to come
Jump back to my feet
and I only see ahead of me
Chasing down the street (down the street)

Came out to a shooting star
But she moves so fast
That I can't keep up
I'm chasing

I'm in love with a shooting star
But she moves so fast
When she falls then
I'll be waiting

Heaven Knows I’m Miserable Now - The Smiths

I was happy in the haze of a drunken hour But heaven knows I’m miserable now I was looking for a job, and then I found a job And heaven knows I’m miserable now In my life Why do I give valuable time To people who don’t care if I live or die ? Two lovers entwined pass me by And heaven knows I’m miserable now I was looking for a job, and then I found a job And heaven knows I’m miserable now In my life Oh, why do I give valuable time To people who don’t care if I live or die ? What she asked of me at the end of the day Caligula would have blushed Oh, you’ve been in the house too long she said And I (naturally) fled In my life Why do I smile At people who I’d much rather kick in the eye ? I was happy in the haze of a drunken hour But heaven knows I’m miserable now Oh, you’ve been in the house too long she said And I (naturally) fled In my life Oh, why do I give valuable time.

you can’t sit up
you fell too fast
you come at the right time
you come too fast
you bloom in spring
you move the sky
you’ve come in singing
you come in right

you were like a cloud
yes you are a flower
then you were a lime
now our love is sour
you were like a cloud
you were just like a flower
then you were a lime
now our love is sour

don’t give up (I owe you…)
no don’t give up
no don’t give up (I owe you…)
don’t give up

you were like a cloud
yes you were a flower
then you were a lime
now our love is sour
you were like a cloud
you were just like a flower
then you were a lime
now our love is sour

here I feel I wish I could just see it
the love the hate the things that separate
forcing conscious to conscious every small attack
it takes a small man to notice but not to act up
confrontation complication needs a foundation
I'm calm baby, I'm calm

you were like a cloud (You know, I know)
yes you are a flower (Love is all you need)
then you were a lime (You know, I know)
now our love is so sour (Love is all we need)
so sour
so sour
so sour

don’t give up
no don’t give up
no don’t give up
no don’t give up
start again buttercup (I owe you)
start again buttercup (I owe you)
start again buttercup (I owe you)
start again, start again dear (I owe you)

When I saw what we had I gave it to everywhere, dear.
When you lost the nurses I found you a doctor, in me, in me..

I'm calm baby, I'm calm

Made of Stone - The Stone Roses

Your knuckles whiten on the wheel
The last thing that your hands will feel
Your final flight can't be delayed
No earth, just sky it's so surreal
Your pink fat lips let go a scream
You fry and melt I love the scene
Sometimes I fantasize
When the streets are cold and lonely
And the cars they burn below me
Don't these times fill your eyes
When the streets are cold and lonely
And the cars they burn below me
Are you all alone
Is anybody home?
I'm standing warm against the cold
Now that the flames have taken hold
At least you left your life in style
And for far as I can see
Ten twisted grills grin back at me
Bad money dies I love the scene
Sometimes I fantasise
When the streets are cold and lonely
And the cars they burn below me
Dont these times fill your eyes
When the streets are cold and lonely
And the cars they burn below me
Are you all alone
Is anybody home?
Sometimes I fantasize
When the streets are cold and lonely
And the cars they burn below me
Dont these times fill your eyes
When the streets are cold and lonely
And the cars they burn below me
Are you all alone
Are you made of stone?

When I'm at the pearly gates
This will be on my videotape, my videotape
Mephistopheles is just beneath
and he's reaching up to grab me

This is one for the good days
and i have it all here
In red, blue, green
In red, blue, green

You are my center
When i spin away
Out of control on videotape
On videotape
On videotape
On videotape

This is my way of saying goodbye
Because I can't do it face to face
I'm talking to you before

No matter what happens now
You shouldn't be afraid
Because I know today has been the most perfect day I've ever seen.

It isn't right to sit around and think about the awful things that get you down
You've gotta try to wear a smile no matter how hard it can be to do
I could make myself go crazy crying over times I've chased my broken dreams
but what is life without a dream and even i know dreams can still come true

How fickle my heart and how woozy my eyes
I struggle to find any truth in your lies
And now my heart stumbles on things I don't know
My weakness I feel I must finally show

Lend me your hand and we'll conquer them all
But lend me your heart and I'll just let you fall
Lend me your eyes I can change what you see
But your soul you must keep, totally free
Har har, har har, har har, har har

In these bodies we will live, in these bodies we will die
Where you invest your love, you invest your life
In these bodies we will live, in these bodies we will die
Where you invest your love, you invest your life

Awake my soul, awake my soul
Awake my soul
You were made to meet your maker
Awake my soul, awake my soul
Awake my soul
You were made to meet your maker
You were made to meet your maker

"I think it's dark and it looks like rain," you said
"And the wind is blowing like it's the end of the world," you said
"And it's so cold it's like the cold if you were dead," and then you smiled for a second.

"I think I'm old and I'm feeling pain," you said,
"And it's all running out like it's the end of the world," you said
"And it's so cold it's like the cold if you were dead," and then you smiled for a second.

Sometimes you make me feel like I'm living at the edge of the world, like I'm living at the edge of the world.
"It's just the way I smile," you said

It's been so long
Since you heard from me
Got a wife and kid
That I never see
And I'm nowhere near
What I dreamed I'd be
I can't believe
What life has done to me

I never thought I'd lie
but you don't wanna know
so now there's a divide
though we used to be close
we're learning to be nice
I'll only show you half
the rest I gotta hide
cause you don't understand

sometimes I say too much

times when I'm with you
I'm really not myself
cause you don't want the truth
you want someone else

I admit sometimes I say too much

I never thought I'd lie

I'm running out of time
I'm out of step and closing down
and never sleep for wanting hours
the empty hours of greed
and uselessly
always the need
to feel again the real belief
of something more than mockery
if only I could fill my heart with love

all my vows
are left in vain
I'm thinking about letting go
and give away
promised glory days

I had love to spare
and it was meant for you
a tender kiss and a sweet, sweet word
is what I need from you

most of all
what I desire
is absolution
and one more try
to make things right

You gave up on me
a broken heart and eventually
for what it's worth
I give you my apologies

for everything I said or done
my apologies

for everytime I let you down
my apologies

I had love to spare
and it was meant for you
a tender kiss and a sweet, sweet word
is what I need from you

You gave up on me
a broken heart and eventually
for what it's worth
I give you my apologies
my apologies
my apologies
