It's midnight now. My only companions are the streetlights and the music on the stereo. Now it's "Nowhere" -- 'Nobody can find you when you're nowhere Living on the other side of hope Nobody can hurt you if you don't care Singing like you're swinging on a rope' The window is open, letting the cold night air in, and I'm trembling as I type this. Sometimes it feels good to feel so cold. The air makes your bones hurt and stomach clench, but you don't shut the window. You need to hear the cars and the rumble of passing trains. Even he knows this. He wrote, 'Hold her tight just like a doll, falling backwards down the stairs Trains are howling in the dark (saddest sound you'll ever hear) Sell out to the side that lost, buying souls that can't be found Worth exactly what they cost (lives collapse without a sound)' It's eerie how music can do this, provide the perfect soundtrack to an evening, as though nothing we feel is unique. The collective unconscious at work. 'Every tragedy is a comedy, unless you are the victim Then you're just another monkey at the zoo' Spread the good news, brothers and sisters. Tod saves. |
Now it's P.W. Long. "She's smirking at you with a go-to-hell answer But she's a bad motherfucker when you're looking at a dancer" Aw, yeah |
"There's a toad in the witch grass There's a crow in the corn Wild flowers on a cross by the road And somewhere a baby is crying for her mom As the hill trun from green back to gold" Beautiful. |
And everyone is suddenly your dearest friend Nobody talks no dirt about you And life, it just goes on above your head When you're dead Everybody miss you when you're gone They'll reminisce about you when they hear your favorite song They'll think that they did something wrong They'll wonder if there was something they should have said When you're gone I'm never gonna tell a lie No, I'm never gonna wear a tie And I'm never gonna say goodbye Goodbye Life is so much better when you're dead Conversation's easy when there's nothing to be said But it can get a little lonesome Maybe you should take along a friend Like I said I'm never gonna tell a lie No, I'm never gonna wear a tie And if I can't walk, maybe I can fly Don't ask the reason why But I'm never gonna say goodbye Goodbye Goodbye |
What is the light that you have shining all around you Is it chemically derived? Cause if it's natural, something glowing from inside, shining all around you, it's potential has arrived. Looking into space it surrounds you. Love is in the face that you're drawn to. What is the light that you have shining all around you.Is it chemically derived? (An Untested hypothesis suggesting that the chemical (in our brains) by which we are able to experience the sensation of being i nlove is the same chemical that caused the "BIG BANG" that was the birth of the accelerating universe) Flaming Lips this song humbles, it tickles to think this theory may have value |
he leans down to kiss you but he's only stooping to conquer he's only biting your tongue love goes blank without a shadow, without a crease without a reason now he keeps you dazed in his orbit he keeps you in stitches as he puts his arm around your shoulder he only keeps you in line --Smart Went Crazy |
