"Kiss the boot of shiny, shiny leather
Shiny leather in the dark
Tongue of thongs, the belt that does await you
Strike, dear mistress, and cure his heart

Severin, severin, speak so slightly
Severin, down on your bended knee
Taste the whip, in love not given lightly
Taste the whip, now plead for me

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"

"Venus N Furz" - Velvet Underground *swoonz*

For my big sis
Hush now, don't you cry
Wipe away the teardrop from your eye
You're lying safe in bed
It was all a bad dream
Spinning in your head
Your mind tricked you to feel the pain
Of someone close to you leaving the game of life
So here it is, another chance
Wide awake you face the day
Your dream is over... or has it just begun?

There's a place I like to hide
A doorway that I run through in the night
Relax child, you were there
But only didn't realize it and you were scared
It's a place where you will learn
To face your fears, retrace the years
And ride the whims of your mind
Commanding in another world
Suddenly you hear and see
This magic new dimension

I- will be watching over you
I- am gonna help you see it through
I- will protect you in the night
I- am smiling next to you, in Silent Lucidity

[spoken during solo]
(Visualize your dream)
(Record it in the present tense)
(Put it into a permanent form)
(If you persist in your efforts)
(You can achieve dream control)
(Dream control)
(How's that then, better?)
(Hug me)

If you open your mind for me
You won't rely on open eyes to see
The walls you built within
Come tumbling down, and a new world will begin
Living twice at once you learn
You're safe from the pain in the dream domain
A soul set free to fly
A round trip journey in your head
Master of illusion, can you realize
Your dream's alive, you can be the guide but...

I- will be watching over you
I- am gonna help to see it through
I- will protect you in the night
I- am smiling next to you....
QUEENSRYCHE-Silent Lucidity

With flowers in her hair
gazed upon with dead lovers eyes
she never looked so good
And I never
felt so right

Who's sleeping on my side
of the bed tonight
Have you ever cried so hard
that baby you just died
you just died

-Right Side of the Bed--Atreyu

I'm still waiting for the news dad,
That she's gone and never coming back.
I can't go on because the strength I had is gone
And I find it hard to get out of bed

Oh yeah, don't you know it's true son,
You can't really know someone.
Even though we sleep together we're alone
And I find it hard to get out of bed

And we operate but
I still feel alone
And I can't complain
Cause she's so beautiful
Yes we all have made mistakes


"The Tragedy Of The Human Condition" -Gabe Saporta (Midtown)

They call her for dinner...
She makes up a reason...
She looks at her arms...
And rolls down her sleeves...
And...Her mother is starting...
To see through her lies...
And...Last night her father...
Had...Tears in his eyes...

And they rise in the morning...
And they sleep in the dark...
And even though, no body's looking...
She's falling apart...

And we rise in the morning...
And we sleep in the dark...
And even though nobody's looking...
She's falling apart...

Lisa Loeb-"She's Falling Apart"

I keep going round and round on the same old circuit.
A wire travles underground to a vacant lot.
Where something I can't see interrupts the current.
And shrinks the picture down to a tiny dot.
And from behind the screen, it can look so perfect.
But it's not.

So here im sittin in my car at the same old stop light.
I keep waiting for a change, but I don't know what.
So red turns into green, turning into yellow.
But I'm just frozen here on the same old spot.
And all I have to do is press the pedal.
But I'm not. No I'm not.


Well people are tricky,
You can't afford to show,
anything risky, anything they don't know.
The moment you try, well kiss it goodbye.

So baby kiss me like a drug, like a respirator.
And let me fall into the dream of the astronaut.
Where I get lost in space that goes on forever.
And you make all the rest just an after thought.
And I believe it's you who could make it better.
But it's not. No it's not

"it's not" -aimee mann

6) WALK 2:47
Find myself singing the same songs everyday
Ones that make me feel good
When things behing the smiles ain't okay

Around and over and in-between the seas
I need to be on top of a mountain
Where I can be see everything
Cause this paranoia's getting old

Now as I open my eyes to start another day
I'm in a pile of puke
Empty bag of execuses
My love for friends and family
you know I need them

And under a sun that's seen it all before
My feet are so cold
And I can't believe that I have to bang my head against this wall again
But the blows they have just a little more space in-between them
Gonna take a breath and try again.

Woke up in a bed of vomit
I think I hate myself
Woke up in a bed of vomit
I lost my pink wig
and I'm in Hell

Don't tell me
Don't tell me
What I did last night
Don't tell me
Don't tell me
What I said last night cuz
Everything's not alright

-Technicolour Yawn:FLUFFY

Nobody loves me
It's true
Not like you do

There comes a time we all know, theres a place we all must go. Into the soul, into the heart, into the dark.

{Melissa Etheridge}

WB

I wanna take you down

--The Cult

Tease me

Before I have to go


Scorpions - Tease Me, Please Me

"I picked you out
of the crowd and talked to you
Said I liked your shoes...
I said "Thanks can I follow you?"

So its up the stairs...
and out of the way
of watching eyes...
I asked your name
You asked the time...

I want a lover I don't have to love...
I want a girl who's just out to give a fuck.
Where is the kid with the chemicals
Thought he said he'd be here but I'm not sure
I've got the money if you've got the time
You said it feels good...
I said I'll give it a try..."

Bright Eyes- "Lover I don't Have to Love"

I gave him head
on his teenage bed
didn't want to
but I never said

His strawberry flavored
words are luring me
drawing me
I wake up feeling cheap
and beginning to bleed

And I don't know how
And I don't know why
I feel so cheap

Cheap-Fluffy

"Wake up every morning to the sound of the radio screaming
6:30, 7:30, 8 o'clock and I've got to leave.
Walk out on the street with nothing on except the shame of last night,
And a number in my hand of a man I don't really need.

Where do I fit in?
Where is my place here?
What do I need to say? What do you want to hear?
Where do I fit in
If she's in your bed?
Where is my beautiful?"

- Lennon "My Beautiful"

To really love a woman
To understand her
You gotta know her deep inside
Hear every thought
See every dream
And give her wings when she wants to fly

And when you find yourself
Lying helpless in her arms
You know you really love a woman

When you love a woman
You tell her that she’s really wanted
When you love a woman
You tell her that she’s the one
She needs somebody
To tell her that it’s gonna last forever
So tell me have you ever really
Really really ever loved a woman

To really love a woman
Let her hold you
Do you know how she needs to be touched ?
You gotta breath her
Really taste her
To you can feel her in your blood
Then when you can see your unborn children in her eyes
You know you really love a woman

When you love a woman
You tell her that she’s really wanted
When you love a woman
You tell her that she’s the one
She needs somebody
To tell her that you’ll always be together
So tell me have you ever really
Really really ever loved a woman

You got to give her some faith
Hold her tight
A little tenderness
You gotta treat her right
She’ll be there for you
Taking good care of you
You really gotta love your woman

And when you find yourself
Lying helpless in her arms
You know you really love a woman

When you love a woman
You tell her that she’s really wanted
When you love a woman
You tell her that she’s the one
She needs somebody
To tell her that it’s gonna last forever
So tell me have you ever really
Really really ever loved a woman
Just tell me have you ever really
Really really ever loved a woman
Just tell me have you ever really
Really really ever loved a woman.

Bryan Adams - HAVE YOU EVER REALLY LOVED A WOMAN ?

I'll drown my beliefs
To have you be in peace
I'll dress like your niece
To wash your swollen feet

Just don't leave, don't leave

And true love waits
In haunted attics
And true love wins
On lollipops and crisps

Just don't leave, don't leave

I'm not living
I'm just killing time
Your tiny hands
Your crazy kiss and smile

Just lonely, lonely..
Just lonely, lonely..



radiohead -"true love waits"

I realize I'm dead...
I'm fuct in the head...
I'm not living without you...
My life is a joke...
& my heart has been choked...
I'm not living without you...
You're bleeding me...
You're bleeding me...
You're bleeding...
I'm not living without you...

Coal Chamber-"Not Living"

"Doodle takes Dad's scissors to her skin;
and when she does, relief comes setting in.
While she hides the scars she´s making underneath her pretty clothes, she sings:
Hey baby can you bleed like me?
C'mon baby, can you bleed like me?"
- Garbage "Bleed Like Me"

I'm feeling crossed
taken inside
burn up the pain
my thoughts are strange
just like the things I used to love
just like a tree that fell
I heard it
Art is still inside I feel it

I wanna bleed
show the whole world
what I have inside
I wanna scream
let the blood flow
that keeps me alive

Take all these strings
they call my veins
and wrap them around
every fucking thing
The presence of people's
not for me
I must remain in tunes forever
My love is music
and I will marry melody

I wanna bleed
I wanna feel
I wanna make you
know what's real
So won't you let me
take you for a ride
you can stop the world
try to change my mind
won't you let me show you
how it feels
you could stop the world
but you won't change me
I need music
I need music
to set me free
to let me bleed
