A stylus (plural: styli or styluses) is a writing utensil, or a small tool for some other form of marking or shaping, for example in pottery. It can also be a computer accessory that is used to assist in navigating or providing more precision when using touchscreens. It usually refers to a narrow elongated staff, similar to a modern ballpoint pen. Many styli are heavily curved to be held more easily. Another widely-used writing tool is the stylus used by blind users in conjunction with the slate for punching out the dots in Braille.
Styli were first used by the ancient Mesopotamians in order to write in cuneiform, Egyptians (Middle Kingdom), and the Minoans of Crete (Linear A and Cretan Hieroglyphic) made styli in various materials: reeds that grew on the sides of the Tigris and Euphrates rivers and in marshes and down to Egypt where the Egyptians used styli from sliced reeds with sharp points; bone and metal styli were also used. Cuneiform was entirely based on the "wedge-shaped" mark that the end of a cut reed made when pushed into a clay tablet, hence the name "cuneiform" from Latin cuneus = "wedge". The linear writings of Crete in the first half of the second millennium BC were made on sun dried clay tablets that were left to dry in order to become 'leather' hard before they were incised by the stylus. The linear nature of the writing was also dictated by the use of the stylus.
I Get High, I Get High
I Get High, I Get High
I Get High, I Get High
I Get High on your memories
High on your memories
High on your memories
I Get High, high, high, high (Everyday)
I Get High, high, high, high (Everynight)
I Get High, high, high, high (All the time)
Highhhh (In background thoughout song)
[Verse One- Styles]
Everyday I need an ounce and a half
S.P.: the only flow'er that you know with a bounce in a half
Listen kid, I need a mountain of cash
So I could roll up, hop in the whip and like, bounce to the ave
I get, high cuz I'm in the hood, the guns in around
It take a blunt just to ease the pain that humble me now
And I'd rather roll somethin up
Cuz if I'm sober dogg, I just might flip, grab my guns and hold somethin up
I get high as a kite
I'm in the zone all alone, muthafucka 'case I'm dyin tonight
So I roll em up back to back, fat as I could
You got beef with Styles P, I come to slide to the hood
[Chorus]
I Get High, high, high, high (Everyday)
I Get High, high, high, high (Everynight)
I Get High, high, high, high (All the time)
High, high, high, high (Everyday)
I Get High, high, high, high (Everynight)
I Get High, high, high, high (All the time)
I Get High, high, high, high
Highhhh
[Verse Two- Styles]
Ayo, I smoke like a chim-in-ney
Matta fact I, smoke like a gun
When a killa see his enemy
I smoke like Bob Marley did
Add to that, that I smoke like the Hippies did back in the 70's
Spit with the finishing touch
Get this, that I'ma finish you before I finish the dutch
I get high like the birds and the planes
I get high when, bullets hit faces after words exchanged
I get a rush off the blunt and the walls, you understand
Like the M-5 pedal when its touchin the floor
I get high cuz fuck it, what's better to do
And I'ma neva give a fuck cuz I'm better than you
[Chorus]
[Verse Three- Styles]
I'ma smoke til my lungs collapse
I'm from a era where
Niggas cause terror over guns and crack
Where a dolla bill is powerful
I smoke weed cuz time seem precious, and I know what a hour do
High for a livin, gots ta ride for a livin
Wit my real gangsta niggas that'll die for a livin
Shit I get as high as I could
Cuz if you see things like I see things
Cuz I'ma die in the hood
Muthafucka understand its full service to you
I don't smoke the weed if it aint purple or blue
And you could name any rapper, if you want he could die
This is S.P. dump it in, you bitch I get high
[Chorus Til Fade]
I should call myself the biggest bitch
Everything I did was based on it
I'd like to call you without an aim
Life is flat routine's always the same
GAPS AND DIFFERENCES WON'T MEAN A THING
I'm like you make me love again
SMART AND BEAUTIFUL OR WHAT IT BRINGS
So soon take me to the end of time
BEING POSSESSED IS THE ONLY NEED
You're the ONLY NEED
EVERYTHING SHE SAID
I don't care about the things you do
I just want to spend the night with you
May we spill ourselves upon a couch
(Styles P)
Ghost in the Machine!
This part is the movie part, y'knahmsayin?
Feel this motherfuckin movie
Parts 3 and 4 comin soon
You don't like me fuck you it's more than enough shots for ya
Your man ridin wit'chu bet he gettin shot for ya
I got some hand grenades nigga but they not for ya
They for some other shit
My man got robbed out of town and I told him I could cover it
He younger than me and wilder than me
He wanna kidnap a mother I said nigga you on some other shit
Slow down young'n, we gon' get your revenge
When the shit get real we got to go down gunnin
Said he got a set of grenades he got from Jamaican niggaz
Said he goin through there and e'rything and shake a nigga
Nigga you buggin out
We gon' get that money and the work back, then we gon' slug it out
Slow down soldier, keep your composure
Stay quiet and close, then strike like a cobra
You can't attack now, they expectin you you pushy nigga
Give it 2 weeks, and they gon' think you pussy nigga
I guarantee you that they Eagles is big
So we gon' show them niggaz how, evil we is
And we don't give a fuck how diesel they is
Cause they all break down when the Eagle get lit
He young, get me thirsty but he listenin
Plus he know my M.O. so I ain't bullshittin him
Besides we was half on the work
I get it he knock it off you do the math it could work
But bein with the wrong driver on the wrong ride
is guaranteed to get a fuckin passenger hurt shit
You don't get it but you will in a minute
Told shorty to come home and just chill for a minute
It's been a long time we ain't build in a minute
He been deep down South keepin it trill for a minute
Now he back home, gettin his mack on
645i sittin on black chrome
I'm thinkin to myself, damn shorty mature
Got a hundred worth of ice, purple label velour
We got a dutch and we blowin it in front of the store
He asked how I was doin, who was in the studio
Which hood niggaz was frontin, tryin to make a movie though
Block still buggin out, told a nigga truly yo
Fuck rap, I need to get a movie like Coolio
Then he blurted out they got us for six figures
Kicked down the door and he counted out 6 niggaz
A bitch told him who did it, I told him the shit figures
What you offer is shelter
And your bed is a guarantee
Sure you know some good manners, yes indeed
And your kitchen is always clean
But you know it's a compromise
BECAUSE I NEED ALL THE SUNSHINE
AND ALL YOU HAVE IS "NO RAIN"
I WANNA GIVE YOU SOME PLEASURE
NOT MY LIFE
OH I WON'T TAKE THE REMAINS
I am growin' a custom
Which I'm not very proud of, to be clear
To remarkable waste of plastic
time
BECAUSE I NEED ALL THE SUNSHINE
AND ALL YOU HAVE IS "NO RAIN"
I WANNA GIVE YOU SOME PLEASURE
NOT MY LIFE
The music sucks and that's a genuine truth
when you're not around I feel that nothing is good
probably it's a fact and probably it's not
but when I'm not an asshole I think you love me a lot
despite my bad character, despite my forked tongue
you need an explanation and so I write a song
I told you you're the best one and even you're the one
so here's the only exception and keep it well in mind because
I do, I do
I do control until I call I rey to hang, but then I fall
If I hate's place, I'm going to
I never have loved someone like you
I stand to the fact that you're sick at home
I stand to the fact that you want to be alone
I stand to the fact you don't like me saying so
I can't stand to the fact I don't like music anymore
I won't lose you or no one would believe I have a brain
so here comes the romance and here comes the pain
if you love me sweet darling I won't bound myself in fog
hey kiss me sweet princess I am not that bad as frog
I do, I do
I do control until I call I rey to hang, but then I fall
If I hate's place, I'm going to
I never have loved someone like you
like you
like you
like you
like you
like you
like you
like you
(Hello, Hello
It'me, hello)
I do, I do
I do control until I call I rey to hang, but then I fall
If I hate's place, I'm going to
Sometimes it's hard to get all over again
And stop to think I don't belong to the band
I'm stuck with thoughts... I better let 'me apart
Sometimes I wish I had it back from the start
I'm on the run, the winning bet
The golden boy, but I smell crap
"It's just a matter of time" that's what they said
And what I want is a start, It's comin' over so
Make me real gold
The life i was expecting for is so near
And on and on to me, it's comin' over to me to me again
This time i'm taking the chance
Well you can seat or stand as well
Just a couple of lines I get the swell
In a couple of hours this is hell
It's because of your hugs that I stand still
Put the spotlight on me all night and day
Make room for trophy and save a way
To get out of this crap fucked up refrain
It's comin' over to me, it's comin' over to
MAKE ME REAL GOLD
Make me real gold
The life i was expecting for is so near
And on and on to me, it's comin' over to me to me again
This time i'm taking the chance
Fucked up refrain fucked up refrain
'cause I just wanted a start for you and me
But it's tougher than hell or so it seems
It's comin' over to me, it's comin' over to
Make me real gold
The life i was expecting for is so near
And on and on to me, it's comin' over to me to me again
fuck you all you people in disgrace
I just want the sparkle on my face
I was like "the war must stop and now"
I am like "war's not what I'm about"
HEY YOU KNOW I WAS DOWN
AND NOW I FEEL LOUD
I DON'T GIVE A FUCK ABOUT SORROWS
HEY YOU KNOW I DERAIL
YOU'RE CARRYING MY WEIGHT
I DON'T GIVE A FUCK ABOUT SORROWS
you and I
without a care between
you and I
I laugh at everything
life is on
I'm not on poly-thicks
future is
not bad as it used to be
HEY YOU KNOW I WAS DOWN
AND NOW I FEEL LOUD
I DON'T GIVE A FUCK ABOUT SORROWS
HEY YOU KNOW I DERAIL
YOU'RE CARRYING MY WEIGHT
I DON'T GIVE A FUCK ABOUT
SORROWS
-strumental-
Hey, you know i was down
and now i feel loud...
HEY YOU KNOW I WAS DOWN
AND NOW I FEEL LOUD
I DON'T GIVE A FUCK ABOUT SORROWS
HEY YOU KNOW I DERAIL
YOU'RE CARRYING MY WEIGHT
I DON'T GIVE A FUCK ABOUT
The seed of Abraham
ended up to be a war
Good Johnny Walker
that I can't drink anymore
I see the flowers
are rotting down in my yard
Any disaster
is just a matter of
TIME TIME TIME
I NEED IT TO GET BY YOUR SIDE
I NEED TO DECIDE IF I'M WRONG OR RIGHT
I NEED IT TO MAKE UP MY MIND
They said I'm offside
I'll never get any goal
I had a function
I was the one with a soul
Nobody likes me
nobody catches me if I fall
Any disaster
is just a matter of
TIME TIME TIME
I NEED IT TO GET BY YOUR SIDE
I NEED TO DECIDE IF I'M WRONG OR RIGHT
i wanna play
you want to stay
I wanna go
and I say please
HEY TELL ME IT'S OK AND YOU STILL LOVE ME NOW
NOTHING TO DO THE NME IS YOU
I preceded being myself with thoughts of great anything is yet to be
Making arms long to reach things i don't want i realized that
Morning are useless when i'm
Stormy if you're my sunshine
Call me you may find not my answer so i'm wrong or i'm not
Unconstrained seizing any day to daze there is nothing wrong with me
(Styles P)
Yeah, yeah, Ghost, hah
Feel the kid, y'know?
Ghost in the Machine nigga, time to come clean nigga
Wanna touch the kid bring your infrared beam nigga
Got to stay far cause none of y'all is close to me
Most of you niggaz is butter, you know I keep a toast with me
New York is way gone, I'ma be the one to get it back
Try to stop the kid and get, popped in your fitted hat
More respect than money, but fuck it I can live with that
Ride around in luxury, but be where the Civics at
Smokin haze, sippin 'gnac, gimme love I give it back
Ride or die, two guns up, you can get with that
The rage make me evil with the gift
I'm mixin up the haze with the diesel with the piff, it's lit
And niggaz rap funny so to me they seem humorous
I bet they really bounce when the body count is numerous
(You gon' bounce then) And there's nuttin you can do with this
It come to bein street, we the niggaz that been true to this
You softer than a blouse up in Bloomingdale's
You probably wouldn't know what to do in jail
You a bitch so you'd probably get screwed in jail
But fuck jail, we here now, bitch nigga you a frail
It's been a long time since I shot somethin
And if I put you on your back nigga you not frontin
It's been a long time since I stabbed somethin
And if I take your life away nigga you have nuttin
What? Y'know
Ghost, time is money
Poobs I don't even feel like talkin
(Styles P)
This a Supa Mario and Poobs production
I know that you pussy
Cause you ain't the same if police is around nigga
I know that you pussy - I know that you pussy
Cause you ain't the same if police is around nigga
Listen my niggaz, I ain't with all that riffin my niggaz
Load 9 bullets and hit you, have you shittin my niggaz
Niggaz bodies out New York but they lettin they mouths ride
Been a long time since y'all been on the South side
Y'all niggaz wanna count what we got, y'all niggaz industry
Cornball I get most my shit from the block
But it's funny I can switch up my watch, plus switch up my car
Got a house in a real cool spot
But you never gon' see me on "Cribs"
I'm a criminal, can't let them grimy niggaz see where I live
Cause they might kick in the door, lookin for the piff and the raw
But all they gon' get's the fifth and the four
"All Eyez on Me" like Mr. Shakur
Knockin the Whispers in the Cadillac, sit on velour
I adapt to my habitat, give me a four
With a fully loaded clip, a bitch that drive stick
that can roll a thai stick, definitely on some high shit
Ma I'm 'bout to cut up this Yayo
Bring 50 to the Bank then Buck at these a-holes
But, I don't wanna blam they click
They don't stand a chance and I'ma come cleaner like the dance to this shit
Them niggaz aight, but tell Yayo to vamoose
Let me set you, check you, 50 don't respect you
On the radio he said your baby mom was a Deuce
I was sittin on the bunk like damn he a punk
Don't make me off niggaz y'all snitches is soft niggaz
What? I'm just fuckin around wit y'all niggaz
I ain't tryin to catch a case
I know that you pussy, police is wit'chu
Security or somethin, I ain't gon' risk it my niggaz
Case you ever fell jumpy leave the cops at home though
Y'know? ONE
The Ghost, ha ha ha!
(Styles P)
Kings lose crowns, teachers stay intelligent
That's what KRS said
The Ghost nigga, time is money
Double R, D-Block
Poobs let's go
If it's beef better move on nigga, or get shot in the head
Or trucked over by the UConn nigga (trucked over)
Touch me, lose two arms, nigga you might think you hot
You dead wrong, you just lukewarm nigga
I'm colder than the ice in the freezer
Butcher knife slice and you seize up
44 blunts, I got a right to amnesia
Late night I'm pipin a diva
All my niggaz hyper and eager
In case I miss the hit the sniper'll leave ya
This case it's better to give than be the receiver
In the M-6 blowin the weed up
Comin through the hood makin sure that it's G'd up
I'ma I'ma hustler, you know that I read up
My rap is like coke, so my shit stay ki'd up
Y'all lil' niggaz new to the slums
I'm from the spot where the dope move faster than the cougar'll run
Come through with a chip, 22 in the bun
Ask the streets who can spit an iller fluid than son
Sheeit, nobody right? (Nobody)
Kill you, you a nigga nobody like
Fuck with me if you lookin for the rowdy type
I get it buzzin with cousin
Six dozen bullets skippin in the Audi right
This is Styles nigga, I keep it comin like gunshots
And you ain't said nuttin in the wild nigga
You ain't said nuttin, what? Motherfucker
Time is money nigga, that's all I'ma say
[Intro]
S.P. this where it started at, on the microphone?
Rip a nigga, make him scream
(Yeah Poobs, let's get him nigga)
[Styles P]
Beats to the rhyme, street full of crime
Rap or the gat I got heat for your mind
Beats what a nigga got asleep on your spine
On the creep and the grind, rap the work or double up
Hit you with a scar on your cheek, watch it bubble up
Man pull the Hummer up, shoot any runner-up
Real cool niggaz but we might fuck the summer up
Niggaz wonder what I'm involved in
See me all alone when I'm runnin in Harlem
Bronx and Queens, fuck that I live life like I'm starvin
You don't like me, fuck you nigga!
I don't trust you, I cut you or bust you nigga
I shoot up where you hustle nigga, fuck the program up
Rob all your workers, cut yo' grams up
You dealin with big niggaz or pig niggaz
P don't give a fuck when it's time to jig niggaz
(I don't give a fuck) You dig? Niggaz big
Run up in the crib and wig niggaz and I don't mean fake hair
You can bet that I'm goin, they said that there's cake there
Might as well get them candles out; we ain't makin a wish
We sayin a prayer cause I blammed you out - what?
Guess who back? It's P with the P-91
38 Specials, the extra gat
In the souped up Mirada nigga, extra black - what?
You know
You know who I am
I'm that nigga! (Ghost)
Sometimes to be complete you need a rocket plane
To fly against the buildings of a town
He found the perfect love on a four-engined grave
No one will ever know she had no doubt
Don't you know that you're so beautiful?
Don't you tell me that I'm beautiful?
Don't you know that I'm a terrorist?
That's it one last kiss / rest in peace
BREATHE THIS TIME WE'RE TRAPPED INSIDE
I KNOW IT'S ALRIGHT TO LOSE WHEN YOU FIGHT
Believe or not the young guys were not scared at all
'cause both they knew there is a reason why
To keep your love beside you just one second more
I feel so alive just when someone's yelling to me
I'm a dog suchlike, tomorrow I will die,
No one will save my soul, I'll burn in hell
Oh yeah, that's fun, you have no sympathy 'cause
I'm the worst day of your life, the fact that you deny
The stick in your eye and you just don't like me
THERE'S NOBODY ON THE ROOF
AND THERE'S NOBODY UNDERGROUND
I ALWAYS GO ON FOOT
BUT YOU CAN'T FIND ME AROUND
I STILL LIVE IN A CAVE
AND YOU CAN FIND ME RIGHT THERE
COME AND CATCH ME IF YOU CAN IF YOU DON'T LIKE ME
I can't complain my cave is not that bad
It is so warm and clean, with multicolour screen
It feels like holidays in Baghdad town
I'm not that fat as I look on US tv
I see my videotapes, I see them everyday
I can't believe you just don't like me
THERE'S NOBODY ON THE ROOF
AND THERE'S NOBODY UNDERGROUND
I'M GOING ALWAYS BY FEETS
BUT YOU CAN'T FIND ME AROUND
I STILL LIVE IN A CAVE
AND YOU CAN FIND ME RIGHT THERE
COME AND CATCH ME IF YOU CAN IF YOU DON'T LIKE ME
I feel sorry, for the things you had to learn
...and how your heatwave ran
Through our snow black fields
And we dropped our young
To a ragtime feel
And itÂ's been ten long weeks
And thereÂ's still no word
Our Arctic Graceland
And the whale fat burn
My moonÂ's a naked cold star
Why do you take this so hard.
So keep this song
Til you catch diseases
And wait them out
Til this tundra freezes
.and how your heatwave ran
Through our snow black fields
My moonÂ's a naked cold star
Why do you take this so hard.
Helicopters are chasing
Animals through the fields
Helicopters are chasing
This story ends
In bloodshed
The face I love
The city I'm from
The persons I've met
The persons I've let down
But a hero never turns around
It's nice to see you're moving on
I know it's hard to carry on
But it's just never what it was
In the Beginning
How did this start?
And where did we begin
In a ball of fire
And stars and suns
And that brings me here, now
Where my heart's caving in
A tornado whips in around the poles
And it's raining
Since you've been away
I've longed to hold you near
Separation of two hearts
I wish that you were here
And now I feel so all alone
Waiting for the day
That we can be together
This lonely road I travel on
Is leading to you
And now I feel so all alone
But I know we'll meet in the end
Whispers of your name gently in the wind
Wishing for my yesterdays
So I could be with you again
And I miss holding near
To be with you I'll find a way
Now is another day
I still walk this lonely road
So many things are left to say
You hear but .you can't answer
And now I feel so all alone
But I know we'll meet in the end
And I miss holding near
To be with you I'll find a way
The time has come to part
So I leave you with this heart
That I thought would know your love
Til we died to float above
And you drift alone downstream
On a bed of broken dreams
And I can only know regret
At the death of all we meant
Ca y'est c'est reparti je me divise en deux
Je suis toute a la fois l'acteur et le décor
Je ne sais ou je vais ou jamais le saurais-je
Je ne vais nulle part mais a toute de vitesse
L'haleine des camions le soleil alienant
Sur le toit du Bancroft building a Montreal
Les filles a moitie nues je pense a toi souvent
les filles complètement nues ca me fais toujours mal
et puis je reste la les gens me semblent heureux
si tu savais souffrir je m'en porterais mieux
tu recevras ma lettre déchirante et déchirée
Yesterday Never Tomorrows
The Stills
my lucks pushed too far
get wrecked in some bar
well i've lost it
my foots on a nail
the dark winter snows bright
please stay here tonight
well i'll cry my face
straight through my pillow
some things last forever
why can't this last forever
nothing lasts forever
i hope this lasts forever, oh
more sex,
more goodbyes
i love you and i
won't let myself let you go
some things last forever
why can't this last forever?
nothing lasts forever
IÂ've doubled my pace
For half of your smile
IÂ'm tiger-posed
IÂ'm doggy-bagged
Crime or offence
DonÂ't make you cry
I love your heart
IÂ've combed your eyes
I see it in your feet
Racing to mine
I like to dream
IÂ'm caught in the sky
I hang by the fears that
Staple my life
The winter was long
The mountains were high
The fire burns blue
As I wave my goodbyes
This isnÂ't the town where
I wanna die
IÂ'm worth the time
In all sincerity
IÂ'm honestly happy
With you
So letÂ's make it fast
Like lightning through the cars
But just like the sixties
We wonÂ't get very far
IÂ'm into looks
But IÂ'm also into books
oooh ooooooh
oooh ooooooh
oooh ooooooh
oooh ooooooh
we were lovers
we were kissers
we were holders of hands
we were make believers
just losing time
and you said you'd rather live in tv land
than say that you care
but you don't
that's heartless and i will not cry
but i'm still in love
and i'm still in love
and i'm still in love
and i'm still in love
your dreams of acting onscreen
what do they mean
you'll be dancing senseless in your bedroom
and you find yourself out of a job
and before too long
you'll be selling lemonade to the overpaid
and i'm still in love
and i'm still in love
and i'm still in love
and i'm still in
love
oooh ooooooh
oooh ooooooh
oooh ooooooh
oooh ooooooh
i remember
it was summer
i was out of my head
but you weren't you're selfish
and a waste of space
but i'm still in love
and i'm still in love
and i'm still in love
and i'm still in love
i'm still in love
and i'm still in love
and i'm still in
I'll see you in a second
a dirty little minute
that was an hour ago
oh don't censor me
so bitterly
there's no change
the sun goes down
i'm ready for it
i'm ready for it
the days seem to past
clouds move too fast
about an hour ago
we hit a tree
we bruised your knee
keep on saying you love me
im ready for it
im ready for it
loving you's a black hole
Animals and Insects
The Stills
I stumble out of a night club thinking,
"Animals and insects don't do drugs."
I think I'll go out and act like I'm celibate
Jingle bells and a Christmas choir
I softly kick a dog in the teeth
But he can't beat me down
Blood streaming from the palms of my feet
I'll bring the heavens down screaming with me
Oh my God... [4x]
I'll shake my cutie pie fist at a waitress
When I'm sick of the way that I've been
I think I'll go out and act like I'm celibate
Throw grenades at a Christmas choir
Changes Are No Good
The Stills
i wear a smile
i wear a laugh
on in the back stage changing heads
i am a weekday on weekends
i hate my best friends
spoken, choked up on my notes
this heart drones
as i try and act adult
but like a walkmen falls to pieces
all parts no heart
see me change, changes are no good
see me change, changes are no good
see me change
all the world's deranged
and i'm left crushed
people delayed
are in a rush
i'm on a roll
but i might throw up
will i ruin my make-up?
see me change, changes are no good
see me change, changes are no good
see me change
see me change, changes are no good
see friends change, changes are no good
strange like skin and
i'm leavin
stretchs over bone and
smells like honey on the wind
oh so strange, i can't remember
where the heartache ends
and the fevered begins
ooooooh
seems like mary magdalena
shakes her lovers bones and
all the demons in the window
oh so strange, that dreams that haunt my bed
the heartache swells and quickens near the end
and it slows down, it slows down
til i'm shot down, i'll drown
ooooooh
strange like skin and
i believe in
it leaks out of the phone
and it spills like honey
from the window
warm and strange, i can't remember
where the heartbreak mends
when the fevered remains
and i'm so down, so down
slow it down, slow down
slow down, slow down
Brains on a brick wall
When gender bombs, they fall
The sordid way her loaded phrases
Infiltrate your skull
The images are strong
Impulses are strong
And logic will break your heart forever
Be brave
Massive suicide dreams
That feel warm and long
The girl will school you
The girl will...
Could this be the gaining force
Of ten loves in a row
Drunken Sunday evenings
Will just be innuendos
Massive suicide dreams
That feel warm and long
The girl will school you
The girl will school you
The girl will screw you
The girl will screw you
The girl will school you
The girl will screw you
The girl will screw you
lie on the floor
of the runway baby
wait for the ride
we'll have a comfortable flight
don't be afraid
to be afraid here with me
and plunge, little worm
into the worm-hole with me
let's roll
let's roll
south to the sea
i got a sailboat for free
yes, little worm, we'll sail the sewage out to sea
don't be afraid
of the roaming alligators
and save the heartattacks for later
let's roll
let's roll
let's roll
let's roll
north to the fringe
i know a bar there that's in
out of the way in a Hades kind of way
but i'm not afraid
as long as you're here with me
Oh let's roll
let's roll
let's roll
let's roll
let's roll
let's roll
let's roll
We all need to feel secure
We're so middle class
But i'm still waiting for next week's chemical blast
Don't go feeling insecure, no feeling sad
With an M-16 you'll feel the surge of your american past
But are you afraid?
You always said the world would never last
And lola i'm not afraid
If you star-wipe all your past away
And the sun burns one more day
Lola, lola, will the world end me and you
Lola, lola, no we're never gonna make it through
Can you take me back to that place where stars glow
Comets swarm like fireflies outside your window
But are you afraid?
You always said the world would never last
And lola i'm not afraid
If you star-wipe all your past away
And the sun comes one more day
Lola, lola, will the world end me and you
Lola, lola, no we're never never make it through
I'll make my own way; I'll make my own way
Don't bother counting on me, loving me, just act like I'm gone
Well this sorry joker joke, it's all we really need
There's nothing that I need
Too late and too bad, I'm stuck feeling bad
Without you, I'm a mess, without you, you just don't know
This is really not a joke; you're all I really need, you're all I really need
And I'm just so bored of wasting my time
Love and death always on my mind
And I'm just so sick of wasting my time
Love and death always on my mind
I'll make my own way; I'll make my own way
Don't bother counting on me, loving me, just act like I'm gone
Oh, this sorry joke, a joke, it's all we really need
There's nothing that I need
And I'm just so bored of wasting my time
Love and death always on my mind
And I'm just so sick of wasting my time
Panic on the streets of london
Panic on the streets of birmingham
I wonder to myself
Could life ever be sane again
On the leeds side-streets that you slip down
I wonder to myself
Hopes may rise on the grasmeres
But honey pie, you're not safe here
So you run down
To the safety of the town
But there's panic on the streets of carlisle
Dublin, dundee, humberside
I wonder to myself
Burn down the disco
Hang the blessed d.j.
Because the music that they constantly play
It says nothing to me about my life
Hang the blessed d.j.
Because the music they constantly play
On the leeds side-streets that you slip down
On the provincial towns that you jog'round
Hang the d.j., hang the d.j., hang the d.j.
Hang the d.j., hang the d.j., hang the d.j.
Hang the d.j., hang the d.j., hang the d.j.
Hang the d.j., hang the d.j.
You hit Eastern Europe
With a broken heart
And when you came back the town was gone
Now every little step that you take feels wrong
And I'm here acting chicken
Remember
Kissing, making love
In the rolling Black Sea
Underwater
Slipping your tongue
Through my teeth
A million years later alone in dreams
The night is howling
Listen
The sun shines down
On my whole world now
Pouring over everything
That we know
A little bit of soul
In the bottle that I drink down
Fucked up
Singing to the Heavens above
Kissing the bricks of the home I was born in
Stars all full of song
Guns in the distance
Drums in the deep
A train rolls home, the countryside sleeps
Our love is blowing, all over the streets
You can hear it howling
Confused a lot of places I've been
With lots of other places I've been
My sister knows to not let me in
Think of my house burning
Blind us with a calling to prayer
Whirling dervish
Dark black hair
Raising hell
Caned and Abled
Snakecharming the masses
Confused a lot of faces I've seen
With lots of other faces I've seen
Watch them all reflect in the stream
Ashes in gasoline
Elusive fields in snow
Call
Bodies filled with rattling bones
Fall into a pitch black hole
Empty bottle
Stumbling home
Think of my house burning
Elusive fields in snow
Call me
Took a train
Through a mountain
Gaping open
I was broken down
Who's snakecharming the masses?
The tide is high
I've never been so low
You got room to grow
You can never look up
You can't ever look down
You get kicked around
But I built it with sand
And I built it with rock
I built it with all of the
Things that I'm not
And I watch from the hill
As it burns to the ground
I can still see the smoke
From my train out of town
Everything I build is breaking down
Everything I build is breaking down
I close my eyes
Scared of what I saw
Are you mad at all?
Been an open book
Been a slamming door
Apple of the trojan war
(chorus)
Everything I build is breaking down
Everything I build is breaking down
Drink a little bit
Dance a little bit
Take a chance
I lose it all
I have no remorse no regrets
When I'm hanging from
This seventeenth floor
The tide is high
Never been so low
You got room to grow
Everything I build is breaking down
She`s cryptic, fearless night
Like transylvanian lightning
Not a thing like me
When she nailbomb`s the kingdom
See me just sucking in the killer bees
they chew right through me
I could of been prize fighter
bruisin', hurtin' me
But headlights go on
and i`m half way gone
now we speak rememberese
ahh...
see me just sucking in the killer bees
they chew right through me
they chew right through me
It starts with a match
And the wind that blows
What you bury inside
What no one knows
Can I escape these
Hands that glow
It starts with a match
And the wind that blows
Not who I wanted to be
A thousand leagues under the sea
My hands are on fire
I'll make my move
With no eyes in sight
The slightest touch
The wrong choice
Makes it right
I saw the flames
Crawl up your spine
When the room got warm
I froze up inside
Not who I wanted to be
A thousand leagues under the sea
Here is your home, and all of your friends
Your dreams, your whole life
Stretched to its end
To never be sullen, never be sad
Powder of rust in the palm of your hand
I'm bringing up the past
To put it all to rest
Spirits taking off through the holes in my chest
A statue of sirens sinks at high tide
Singing all admissions for me now
And all this because
I lost my mind when it mattered the most
And all this becomes
A weight in your heart that you carry alone
Everybody's taken on a mission of faith
Crumbling earth that you carry away
Messages relayed between the heart and the brain
Quietly, all leaving from me now
And all this because
I lost my mind when it mattered the most
And all this becomes
A weight in your chest that you carry alone
And all this becomes
Like snow in California
Signs from up on high
Bring things back to life now
Bring things back to life
Oh, the world is changing
Mayan calendar ends
Oh, the world is changing
So rally up your friends
I lost my way out
In a land of darkness, end of light
With no one left here
To show me how I died
Like snow in California
Signs from up on high
Bring things back to life now
Bring things back to life
Oh, the world is changing
Mayan calendar ends
Oh, the world is changing
So rally up your friends
I lost my way out
In a land of darkness, end of light
I lost my way out
In a land of darkness, end of light
With no one left here
To show me how I died
Like snow in California
Signs from up on high
Bring things back to life now
Bring things back to life
Bring things back to life now
Bring things back to life
Bring things back to life now
The clouds are thunder and lightning
The ocean's level will rise
The earth will shake
Your windows will break
Tomorrow is all mine
The roads wash in the shadows
Of a thousand manta rays
Volcanic waves
Our hopes are in vain
Tomorrow is all mine
And I might be without you
Your hand is leaving mine
Your eyes I spare
This never-ending rain
We ride through
These plains of hurt
Through the Southern breathing rock
On a rail road of knots
And theres blood on the lines
Of every page I turn
When the ones you love
Are the ones you burn
Being here
Being here
Oh oh
Being here
Some one singing songs
About a girl I hurt
I've been everywhere enough
I've been torn apart by the world
But theres apples in the trees
And diamonds in the earth
I've been losing my mind
Somehow it can't get worse
Being here
Being here
Oh oh
Being here
And the wind is blown and cold
And I can't escape the tears
One for every broken bone
And a hundred for all the years
Being here
Being here
Oh oh
Being here
Being here
Being here
Oh oh
Don't, don't talk down to me
Your head is moving side to side
Our temperatures rise
I hear the Devil outside
You're heading north
Well I'm heading south
Well I hope the words are right when they leave your mouth
Well I'm better off now
Don't, don't talk down to me
Your head is moving side to side
Our temperatures rise
I hear the...
Some things I can't be under
I take one more step
I'm lacing up my gloves
Well I'm better off now
Don't, don't talk down to me
Your head is moving side to side
Our temperatures rise
The time has come to part
So I leave you with this heart
That I throught would know your love
Till we died to float above
And you drift alone downstream
On a bed of broken dreams
And I can only know regret
At the death of all we meant

allison
allison
I'm not afraid in the dark
To say what I feel
And I'm just too scared to tell ya
What I know is real
But I can't wait any longer for the lights to go down
Wait any longer for the lights to go down
Wait any longer for the lights to go
Down can't you see
Baby when you talk to me
Baby when you talk to me
Talk to me
Baby when you talk to me
I wanna hold you so close
Each beat of the day
I call you up on the phone
Nothing to say
But I can't wait any longer for the lights to go down
Wait any longer for the lights to go down
Wait any longer for the lights to go
Down can't you see
Baby when you talk to me
Baby when you talk to me
Talk to me
Baby when you talk to me
Since we first met you were the only one
Sometimes I forget - I'm still the lonely one
Ooh-ooh-ooh
I'm in a trap - sealed by your lips -
Scared to go anywhere,
Thinking about - those things I miss -
Whenever you're not there
But I can't wait any longer for the lights to go down
Wait any longer for the lights to go down
Wait any longer for the lights to go down
Can't you see,
Baby when you talk to me
Baby when you talk to me
Talk to me
Baby when you talk to me
Talk to me, yeah
Baby when you talk to me
Talk to me
In my mind you told me you'd stay.
You held back the rain,
And the mountains cried in lines.
It’s hard to know.
You’ll never know.
We’re lost in this world.
I lost my breath between the cutting air.
And somehow I lost my life between the lies.
Are you still there?
Or have they had their way with you.
Are you still there?!
To keep me alive!
Or have the had their way with you?
To the voices that let us go.
We were lost. We were lost.
Even if you never come back, your ghost, it’s still
here.
Let’s pull the strings!!!
I’ve been making mistakes.
And hoping you wouldn’t notice any of them!
I lost my breath between the cutting air.
Somehow I lost my life between the lies.
Are you still there?!
To keep me alive!
Or have the had their way with you?
To the voices that let us go.
We were lost. We were lost.
Even if you never come back, your ghost, it’s still
here.
Let’s pull the strings, in the waters that pulled us
under.
I’ve been making mistakes!!!
Are you still there?!
To keep me alive!
Or have they had their way with you?
To the voices that let us go.
We were lost!!!
(A trial of mind where your environment
makes you a product of
instead of a reaction to
Tonight, I went counterclockwise with my coffee spoon.)
What a disaster!
Distract me from the world ending around me.
What a sweet disaster!
How do we get out of here?!
Take me through this.
I’m slipping through the words.
Distract me from the world ending around me.
Look around, they’re just faces passing by.
There’s no wonder why.
There’s no wonder why!
You left yourself on the edge!
You left yourself on the edge!
Don't leave yourself on the edge.
(Anna, I don't remember where you're from but I can
feel you
pressing against my pen through the other side of the
page.
I'm leaving this song guillotined by the curtain call.
I'm putting my problems in poems and abandoning them
there, unsolved.
I should be keeping my feet down instead I'm lifting
off--
I'm a fucking whore, I'm a hand of the lord
trying to pull the devil out of a black top-hat. Anna,
come back.)
Take me through this.
I’m slipping through the words.
Distract me from the world ending, around...
Leave, don't leave yourself on the edge.
Take me through this.
I’m slipping through the words.
Distract me from the world ending around me.
You left yourself on the edge!
You left yourself!
You left yourself on the edge!
You left yourself!
On the edge! Let me go!
What a disaster!
The Earth is hollow,
anxious to go home.
Wasted my life. Don't need tomorrow.
My love is an arrow
that will find you in the burning sun.
I couldn't see your face,
so I drew it on the wall.
It was one of the many things left
while you were gone.
And I looked at your eyes.
It had no effect on time,
and it wouldn't stop the world
from swallowing us whole.
I see your face. I get worried sometimes.
If you're waiting for the end,
this is it.
Afraid of this.
Afraid I'm losing my mind.
I can't see what's inside.
It's like I never lived,
stuck inside of this.
No sense of time, just along for the ride.
I get lost. I don't mind.
Give me the details. it's like I'm running out of time.
I'm afraid of this.
A shallowed outline,
the details in the land,
It gave us a brief moment to make our peace.
Oh, the light was really bright.
I had to shut my eyes.
I'd watch them all burn before it gets to me.
I'd watch them all burn before it burns me.
Afraid of this.
Afraid I'm losing my mind.
I can't see what's inside.
It's like I never lived,
stuck inside of this.
No sense of time, just along for the ride.
I get lost. I don't mind.
Give me the details. it's like I'm running out of time.
I get lost. I don't mind.
I hate the feeling of being burned alive.
I'm so sick of this
I'm so sick of all these places that I've been.
All my friends alike, cut from consciousness.
Their lives are dithering, but not me.
I'm fine.
The sky lit up.
I watched the words roll off of your lips.
The sound of waves broke apart what was left of here
The nights grew louder in the great beyond.
We all had to let go.
It's such a mystery how you can get to me
and turn my life off.
And all the space between,
it all makes sense to me:
We're all in this lost.
We fell like others when this world was so cold,
but never like this, now this doesn't feel like home.
Take comfort in knowing it won't be all right.
We fell like others when this world was so cold,
but never like this, now this doesn't feel like home.
I'm sorry to inform you:
