Taken from my post on soulinstereo...
...20 lyrics from my random playlist.
1) Can anybody tell me why God won't speak to me?
Why Jesus never called on me to part the fucking seas?
Why death is easier than living?
You can be almost anything, when you're on your fucking knees
Not today.
Not my son.
Not my family.
Not while walking is still honest and you haven't given up on me
2) Drums started beating
None there but the sun and the flu
You can't see the demons
Untill the demons come calling for you
3) I'm gonna burn it down!
I'm gonna burn it down!
I'm gonna burn it down!
I'm gonna burn it down!
My father put in his best year yeah
working for one of the big 3
still remember my mother's tears
we're born to die in a factory
4) Now there is a hole inside
where the ghosts and demons hide
whispering white wilting words of woe
hungry ugly crunchy things
HORRIBLE NASTY PERVERTED THINGS.
5) in trying to make up what i have lost
a million seconds passed
so i'm imitating time langing tricks that i can't land
have you seen my knees? be kind.
6) Why would this give us the right
To be so sure we've seen the light
Let's be modest, let's be true
We're the only hope we've got.
7) There's a girl in a cage making love to a switchblade
there's a man behind bars milking abandoned cars.
there's a priest in shackles building bombs out of bibles.
And piano wire vines and the men in the pines
that spin round and round and round and round and round.
take me to the pit of celebrity pregnancies.
I want to wear the skin of a magazine baby.
Take me to the pit of celebrity pregnancies.
The five o'clock news is a fucking fantasy.
I stole the rice from the beggars death bowl
in this zoo of broken faces.
I told a widow that she was beautiful
when half of her smile was missing.
and I know my addition:
gun plus gun equals bang bang bang.
And I know my division:
trash into trash equals trash flavored trash.
(sorry about the length. All of that is fucking brilliance)
8) I'm sick and tired of the
wasted time and the
twisted minds who wanna strip us of a decent chance
cos they pollute with their
desire for loot and their
drug disputes
spouting fucking lame demands.
9) They said you'd made your bed
Then they filled your head
With the sound
The bells of a cathedral
You say you're still ashamed
I wish that I could make it stop
Like salt thrown over shoulder
A coin tossed in a fountain
Not unlike a knock on wood.
10) and all of the interesting white people are trying on their chic clenched fist gloves over their smooth hairless stumps!
and all of the interesting white people are devouring four course meals of steak, mashed potatoes, circuits, and undesirable characters.
and all of the interesting white people are having buttons pushed by unnecessary musical numbers while jettisoning arm fragments and bleeding orifices become the new vices for a long dead life style and an interesting new look in cross gender fashion.
11) i wanna know..did you make love or did you fuck her,
did you do everything that you wanted to,
did you make love or did you fuck her?
did you take the half or the whole?
i want to know,this is your fucking life now.
these things are Hazy,
Kinda shitty sometimes,
but we gotta live it up,
gotta do what the fuck we wanna do cause this is our lives,
what do we have to lose?
Heres your chance,
just fucking say,
say something,
say anything,
say something!
12) We always say it, we never mean it
If that's enough if that's enough
That's the way it looks and no one's asking why
It's the right time but we don't have the time
Keep it locked down
It's only what your heart would say
We're barely living through it, we're just surviving
I'm so sick of surviving.
13) And we rock.
Because It's us against them
We find our own reasons to sing
And it's so much less confusing when lines are drawn like that
When people are either consumers or revolutionaries,
enemies or friends
hanging on to the fringes of the cogs of the system
It's just about knowing where everyone stands.
14) I'll gladly force my hands through hearts on nights like this when I've talked my way out of time and spent my life sleeping on idle threats.
Catch as catch can't.
15) Stripsearched at every corner
Kneedeep in an x-ray sea.
Coughing up a fog of fingerprint powder,
all for who's security?
16) I'm gonna be red, white and bluer then you.
I'm gonna be the proud and the fewer than you.
The most star-spangledest you ever knew.
I'm the most americanest Americanist.
17) Nah, nah nah nah nah
whooaaaa ohhh, ohhh
18) Sunshine stings my eyes
And it cuts like, it cuts like knives.
19) Mary, there is no hope for us
If this GM van don't make it
across the state line
we might as well lay down and die
Because if Florida takes us
we're taking everyone down with us
Where we're coming from (yeah)
will be the death us.
20) It's not because I don't love you
It's not because I don't know
the time it takes to say goodbye
to find a balance of heart and mind
we sing !
no. go put your words on the hills and,
no. reject the boredom it kills our,
faith in a future they shot and missed
our ways of expression:
a heart not a fist!
