XSIV4S Posted July 22, 2018 Share Posted July 22, 2018 Brand New Day (Joss Whedon) This appeared as a moral dilemma ‘cause at first It was weird though I swore to eliminate the worst Of the plague that devoured humanity it’s true I was vague on the “how” – so how can it be that you Have shown me the light It’s a brand new day And the sun is high All the birds are singing That you’re gonna die How I hesitated Now I wonder why It’s a brand new day All the time that you beat me unconscious I forgive All the crimes incomplete – listen, honestly I’ll live Mr. Cool, Mr. Right, Mr. Know-It-All is through Now the future’s so bright and I owe it all to you Who showed me the light It’s a brand new me I got no remorse Now the water’s rising But I know the course I’m gonna shock the world Gonna show Bad Horse It’s a brand new day And Penny will see the evil me Not a joke, not a dork, not a failure And she may cry but her tears will dry When I hand her the keys to a shiny new Australia It’s a brand new day Yeah the sun is high All the angels sing Because you’re gonna die Go ahead and laugh Yeah I’m a funny guy Tell everyone goodbye… It’s a brand new day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XSIV4S Posted July 22, 2018 Share Posted July 22, 2018 Brand New Day (Van Morrison) "Brand New Day" When all the dark clouds roll away And the sun begins to shine I see my freedom from across the way And it comes right in on time Well it shines so bright and it gives so much light And it comes from the sky above Makes me feel so free makes me feel like me And lights my life with love [Chorus:] And it seems like and it feels like And it seems like yes it feels like A brand new day, yeah A brand new day oh I was lost and double crossed With my hands behind my back I was longtime hurt and thrown in the dirt Shoved out on the railroad track I've been used, abused and so confused And I had nowhere to run But I stood and looked And my eyes got hooked On that beautiful morning sun [Chorus] And the sun shines down all on the ground Yeah and the grass is oh so green And my heart is still and I've got the will And I don't really feel so mean Here it comes, here it comes 0 here it comes right now And it comes right in on time Well it eases me and it pleases me And it satisfies my mind [Chorus] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bucky Posted July 22, 2018 Share Posted July 22, 2018 So long since I've waited to live again. You brought my world to an end. Love takes it's victim and leaves it's remains. My broken heart has died in vain. Tell me why have we foresaken the dreams we had The pain makes it so hard to understand, you're a lifetime ago, but a memory away, and I'll love you till my resurrection day. Love kills, the fire's gone, dying embers still remain. Love kills, and now you're gone, girl I'll never be the same again. Without your love, seems so dead and unreal, and now there's nothing left to feel. Someday we'll meet again, girl that much I know. At heaven's gate we'll say hello. Now I hear the wind is calling my lonely, lonely soul. For sorrow's trembling hands please let me go. Love's dying sin is just dust in the wind, and I face the other side of no tomorrow. Love kills, the fire's gone, dying embers still remain.Love kills and now you're gone, girl, I'll never be the same again. Love kills and love is just a dying ember in the rain, love kills a heart betrayed, lord, please, please ease my pain, love kills-girl, I need your love. Love kills with all it's heart.

refugeepj Posted July 22, 2018 Share Posted July 22, 2018 Samantha Fish - Lost Myself lyrics I see your eyes in every headlight. Can’t help but wonder where you are tonight. You want someone to talk to. You don’t want somebody to treat you right. I speak your name but you already got my number. Lookin’ for a way out but you only found an in. Hand over fist, put my foot down before the other. You lost your grip and I lost myself again. Lost myself – tryin’ to set you free. Lost myself – when I gave you the best of me. Lost myself – in the cryin’ that you never heard. Lost myself – oh when will I ever learn? The darkest nights a word reminds me. Can hardly hear a whisper on the wind. It only takes a minute to find me. [Lyrics from: https:/lyrics.az/samantha-fish/wild-heart/lost-myself.html] You crawlin’ right back – right back under my skin. It’s not a weakness, I just miss the attention. You got a demon that you’re tryin’ to defend. I’m just a sucker who wasn’t worth the mention. You lost your grip and I lost myself again. Lost myself – tryin’ to set you free. Lost myself – when I gave you the best of me. Lost myself – in the cryin’ that you never heard. Lost myself – oh when will I ever learn. GUITAR SOLO Lost myself – tryin’ to set you free. Lost myself – when I gave you the best of me. Lost myself – in the cryin’ that you never heard. Lost myself – oh when will I ever learn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dric902 Posted July 22, 2018 Share Posted July 22, 2018 I don't know where I'm going But, I sure know where I've been Hanging on the promises In songs of yesterday An' I've made up my mind, I ain't wasting no more time Here I go again Here I go again Tho' I keep searching for an answer, I never seem to find what I'm looking for Oh Lord, I pray You give me strength to carry on, 'Cos I know what it means To walk along the lonely street of dreams An' here I go again on my own Goin' down the only road I've ever known, Like a drifter I was born to walk alone An' I've made up my mind I ain't wasting no more time I'm just another heart in need of rescue, Waiting on love's sweet charity An' I'm gonna hold on For the rest of my days, 'Cos I know what it means To walk along the lonely street of dreams An' here I go again on my own Goin' down the only road I've ever known, Like a drifter I was born to walk alone An' I've made up my mind I ain't wasting no more time But, here I go again, Here I go again, Here I go again, Here I go 'Cos I know what it means To walk along the lonely street of dreams An' here I go again on my own Goin' down the only road I've ever known, Like a drifter I was born to walk alone An' I've made up my mind, I ain't wasting no more time An' here I go again on my own Goin' down the only road I've ever known, Like a drifter I was born to walk alone 'Cos I know what it means To walk along the lonely street of dreams An' here I go again on my own Goin' down the only road I've ever known, Like a drifter I was born to walk alone Read more: Whitesnake - Here I Go Again Lyrics | MetroLyrics Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dric902 Posted July 22, 2018 Share Posted July 22, 2018 Weird Al Yankovic Lyrics "My Own Eyes" [Intro:] I saw a baby drive a truck I saw a junkie eat a tuba I saw a stripper kiss a duck Behind a dumpster in Aruba [Verse 1:] I saw this fat, psychotic guy His underwear was made of crickets He pawned a skeleton to buy Some old expired lotto tickets [Pre-Chorus 1:] I saw a naked vagrant giving Mouth-to-mouth resuscitation to his cat I probably could have gone my whole life Without seeing that [Chorus:] With my own eyes I see things that'd drive a normal man insane Wish I could disconnect my brain From my own eyes [Verse 2:] I saw a mime get hacked to death With an imaginary cleaver I saw an old man's final breath I watched him die from Bieber Fever I saw these diabetic chicks In an abandoned 7-Eleven I watched them snorting pixie sticks While they were belching Stairway To Heaven [Pre-Chorus 2:] I saw two drag queens trying to see how many crackers They could shove up each other's nose I'd like to erase my mind completely but I suppose That's just the way it goes [Chorus 2] With my own eyes I see things that'd drive a normal man insane Wish I could disconnect my brain From my own eyes (my own eyes) Those visions haunt my memory Oh, there's so much I wish I could unsee With my own eyes [Verse 3:] Some priest got drunk and stole a circus zebra And he trained it to massage his back My guinea pig committed hara-kiri So we used him to play hacky-sack My neighbor's kids sold weapons grade plutonium And frosty ice-cold lemonade They took MasterCard and sometimes Human organs in trade, that's how we paid I have to say that it was really darn good lemonade [Outro:] With my own eyes I've seen thing that'd drive a normal man insane Wish I could disconnect my brain From my own eyes (my own eyes) Those visions haunt my memory Oh, there's so much I wish I could unsee With my own eyes [repeating] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TBO Posted July 22, 2018 Share Posted July 22, 2018 You'll take my life but I'll take yours tooYou'll fire your musket but I'll run you throughSo when you're waiting for the next attackYou'd better stand there's no turning back The bugle sounds as the charge beginsBut on this battlefield no one winsThe smell of acrid smoke and horses breathAs you plunge into a certain death Oh oh ohOh oh oh The horse he sweats with fear we break to runThe mighty roar of the Russian gunsAnd as we race towards human wallThe screams of pain as my comrades fall We hurdle bodies that lay on the groundAnd as the Russians fire another roundWe get so near yet so far awayWe won't live to fight another day Oh oh ohOh oh oh We get so close near enough to fightWhen a Russian gets me in his sightsHe pulls the trigger and I feel the blowA burst of rounds takes my horse below And as I lay there gazing at the skyMy body's numb and my throat is dryAnd as I lay forgotten and aloneWithout a tear I draw my parting groan Oh oh ohOh oh oh---------------- Iron Maiden - The Trooper Sent from my Jack boot using Copatalk 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could hide out under there I just made you say 'underwear' I could leave but I'll just stay All my stuff's here anyway It's like a dream you try to remember but it's gone Then you try to scream but it only comes out as a yawn When you try to see the world beyond your front door Take your time 'cause the way I rhyme's gonna make you smile When you realize that a guy my size might take a while Just to try to figure out what all this is for Try to figure out what all this is for Try to see the world beyond your front door Try to figure out what all this is for Edited July 22, 2018 by Will Beararms Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

holyjohnson Posted July 22, 2018 Share Posted July 22, 2018 Well, you wonder why I always dress in black, Why you never see bright colors on my back, And why does my appearance seem to have a somber tone. Well, there's a reason for the things that I have on. I wear the black for the poor and the beaten down, Livin' in the hopeless, hungry side of town, I wear it for the prisoner who has long paid for his crime, But is there because he's a victim of the times. I wear the black for those who never read, Or listened to the words that Jesus said, About the road to happiness through love and charity, Why, you'd think He's talking straight to you and me. Well, we're doin' mighty fine, I do suppose, In our streak of lightnin' cars and fancy clothes, But just so we're reminded of the ones who are held back, Up front there ought 'a be a Man In Black. I wear it for the sick and lonely old, For the reckless ones whose bad trip left them cold, I wear the black in mournin' for the lives that could have been, Each week we lose a hundred fine young men. And, I wear it for the thousands who have died, Believen' that the Lord was on their side, I wear it for another hundred thousand who have died, Believen' that we all were on their side. Well, there's things that never will be right I know, And things need changin' everywhere you go, But 'til we start to make a move to make a few things right, You'll never see me wear a suit of white. Ah, I'd love to wear a rainbow every day, And tell the world that everything's OK, But I'll try to carry off a little darkness on my back, 'Till things are brighter, I'm the Man In Black Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
