I am tired, I am weary
I could sleep for a thousand years
A thousand dreams that would awake me
Different colors made of tears
Kiss the boot of shiny, shiny leather
Shiny leather in the dark
I'd suggest a listen, and demand it if you're an Electronic fan.

Well they blew up the chicken man in Philly last night now they blew up his house too
Down on the boardwalk they're gettin' ready for a fight gonna see what them racket boys can do
Now there's trouble busin' in from outta state and the D.A. can't get no relief
Gonna be a rumble out on the promenade and the gamblin' commissions hangin' on by the skin of its teeth

yeah Never Forget You by the Noisettes (sorry i'm not going to write the lyrics).
You see this girl who liked me and i thought she was very attractive and cool. She always talked to me like we were together, even though i never asked her out. Then one day she just told me we could never be together cause she wanted to go back out with her old boyfriend(who has broken up with her four times). I wasn't sad cause this wasn't the first time she has done this(nor 2nd). But i knew i would miss her, and the lyrics to the song remind me of my rlationship with her. Sure we weren't a serious couple or anything, but it is sad to see a wonderful friend leave.

Dire Straits - Brothers In Arms
These mist covered mountains
Are a home now for me
But my home is the lowlands
And always will be
Some day you'll return to
Your valleys and your farms
And you'll no longer burn
To be brothers in arms
Through these fields of destruction
Baptisms of fire
I've witnessed your suffering
As the battles raged higher
And though we were hurt so bad
In the fear and alarm
You did not desert me
My brothers in arms
There's so many different worlds
So many different suns
And we have just one world
But we live in different ones
Now the sun's gone to hell
And the moon's riding high
Let me bid you farewell
Every man has to die
But it's written in the starlight
And every line on your palm
We're fools to make war
On our brothers in arms.

Yup, cant really explain the Offspring one it's just...I'm really bad at explaining things when I think of the words I'll come back to this.
Swing low in a dark glass hour
You turn and cower
See it turn to dust
Move on a stone dark night
We take to flight
Snowfall turns to rust
Seam in a fusing mine
Like a nursing rhyme
Fat man starts to fall
Year in a hostile place
I hear your face
Start to call
And if you think that I've been losing my way
That's because I'm slightly blinded,
And if you think that I don't make too much sense
That's because I'm broken minded
Don't keep it...
Inside
If you believe it
Don't keep it all inside
Strong words in a ganges sky
I have to lie
Shadows move in pairs
Ring out from the bruised postcard
In the shooting yard
Looking through the tears
Out on the black slate time
We move in line
But never reach an end
Fall in a long stray town
As the ice comes down
Rivers start to bend
And if you think that I've been losing my way
That's because I'm slightly blinded,
And if you think that I don't make too much sense
That's because I'm broken minded
Don't keep it...

I am waiting
On a mountaintop
For the moment that the sky will strike
My apologies
Are forever lost
Soon to ashes in a flash of light
Miles away from me
Hope is fading soon
Gone forever it's a waste of time
My intentions
Like a sweeter room
Only bring to me a fading light
Locked up forever inside
I look to the stars and ask why
Oh - If they could just teach my dark heart to feel
All I've saved - oh why
Thrown away - oh
I am waiting
Like a single bloom
Lost forever in the storm of life
My intentions
Like a sweeter room
Only bring to me a fading light
Locked up forever inside
I look to the stars and ask why
Oh - If they could just show these wounds how to heal
Here I am - oh why
My last stand - oh why
And I know
For all the rising and falling there's nothing to show
Throw me down
Throw me down
Throw me down
It's been raining - Throw me down
And now I will pay - Throw me down
Woe has come to me - Throw me down
I am the lightning rod - Throw me down
I am waiting - Throw me down
On a mountaintop - Throw me down
Oh above me - Throw me down
He will strike me!

Now we've reached the land, such a dreadful sight
What can be expected from these cursed shores?
We've got a remote chance, we will try it out of spite
Find a better end, meet a better end?
Hulls against the beach front for another fight
Men await their freedom call from a crimson tide
We've got a remote chance, we will try with all we've got
Find a better end, here we stand
We have traveled all the way on a journey perilous
Fighting back the waves, feeling glorious
Now that we stand right before the evil shore
Reaching out in the dark to the friends taken five centuries before

The breath of the morning
I keep forgetting
The smell of the warm summer air
I live in a town
Where you can't smell a thing
You watch your feet
For cracks in the pavement
Up above
Aliens hover
Making home movies
For the folks back home
Of all these weird creatures
Who lock up their spirits
Drill holes in themselves
And live for their secrets
They're all uptight
Uptight...
I wish that they'd swoop down in a country lane
Late at night when I'm driving
Take me on board their beautiful ship
Show me the world as I'd love to see it
I'd tell all my friends
But they'd never believe
They'd think that I'd finally lost it completely
I'd show them the stars
And the meaning of life
They'd shut me away
But I'd be all right
All right...

Hunger-Spectre General
When I see what I want
I'm going to take it
If it's against some law
You can bet I'll break it
My need to feed
Gives me the will to survive
I gotta find it fast
To keep me alive
* I can't believe my hunger
Hunger
I want it so bad I can taste it
It drives me mad to see it wasted
When I need it so bad that it's burnin' me
I'm hungry
I'd do anything to get it and feel no regret
Time is running out and I ain't found it yet
* Repeat
I gotta find it fast to keep me alive
Time is running out and I ain't found it yet
Time is running out and I ain't found it yet
And it's burnin' me
And it's burnin' me

You're not human
You're a miracle
A preacher with an animal's face
In your sexy
Neon smokescreen
Lie the supersalesmen of vanity
Even your shadow worships you
In your jungle solitude
With the orgies of the sacrament
And the seal of flagellants
God saves those who save their skin
From the bondage that we're in
I'm elated
I could cut you
And remove the sheath of your ignorance
Bless the eunuch
And the Skoptsi
Will you hurt me now and make a million?
Say cheese, baby
We all love you
But it's a cheap world and you don't exist...
Slit the fabric of the right now
Spread your legs and wear the crown
Tell me how long, lord, how long?
Till I get my beauty sleep?
Now the hourglass is empty
The moment of my de-sexing
Cut it
Cut it
Cut this cancer from my soul
Now that I've made it...
I'm finally naked...

And always the classic
Somewhere beyond the sea
somewhere waiting for me
my lover stands on golden sands
and watches the ships that go sailin'
Somewhere beyond the sea
she's there watching for me
If I could fly like birds on high
then straight to her arms
I'd go sailin'
It's far beyond the stars
it's near beyond the moon
I know beyond a doubt
my heart will lead me there soon
We'll meet beyond the shore
we'll kiss just as before
Happy we'll be beyond the sea
and never again I'll go sailin'
I know beyond a doubt
my heart will lead me there soon
We'll meet (I know we'll meet) beyond the shore
We'll kiss just as before
Happy we'll be beyond the sea
and never again I'll go sailin'
no more sailin'
so long sailin'
bye bye sailin'...

Over in Indiana,
Wearing their red bandanas,
The Indians eat bananas,

"See, I think drugs have done some *good* things for us, I really do. And if you don't believe drugs have done good things for us, do me a Favor: go home tonight and take all your albums, all your tapes, and all your cd's and burn em. 'Cause you know what?

"Today a young man on acid realized that all matter is merely energy condensed to a slow vibration. That we are all one consciousness experiencing itself subjectively. There is no such thing as death, life is only a dream, and we are the imagination of ourselves. Here's Tom with the weather."

Dreaming of that face again.
It's bright and blue and shimmering.
Grinning wide
And comforting me with it's three warm and wild eyes.
On my back and tumbling
Down that hole and back again
Rising up
And wiping the webs and the dew from my withered eye.
In... Out... In... Out... In... Out...
A child's rhyme stuck in my head.
It said that life is but a dream.
I've spent so many years in question
to find I've known this all along.
"So good to see you.
I've missed you so much.
So glad it's over.
I've missed you so much
Came out to watch you play.
Why are you running away?
Came out to watch you play.
Why are you running away?"
Shroud-ing all the ground around me
Is this holy crow above me.
Black as holes within a memory
And blue as our new second sun.
I stick my hand into his shadow
To pull the pieces from the sand.
Which I attempt to reassemble
To see just who I might have been.
I do not recognize the vessel,
But the eyes seem so familiar.
Like phosphorescent desert buttons
Singing one familiar song...
"So good to see you.
I've missed you so much.
So glad it's over.
I've missed you so much.

Prying open my third eye.
Prying open my third eye.
Prying open my third eye.
So good to see you once again.
I thought that you were hiding.
And you thought that I had run away.
Chasing the tail of dogma.
I opened my eye and there we were.
So good to see you once again
I thought that you were hiding from me.
And you thought that I had run away.
Chasing a trail of smoke and reason.
Prying open my third eye. x 10

Same here, I love (Most) of Mike Patton's works, even his really weird stuff. Except the songs that he makes intentionally annoying (He likes to piss off his audiences far too much).Continuum said:

The radio's perfect pitch makes me nauseous
Oh
The dimwits are digging a ditch on my heartbeat radio
Tell me what's the deal with the static
FM has become automatic
I wanna know did the DJ drown
In a sea of reverb and compression
Wait til you hear the refrain
On my heartbeat radio
I love this song. so so much
