Queen Victoria (Alexandrina Victoria; 24 May 1819 – 22 January 1901) was the monarch of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland from 20 June 1837 until her death. From 1 May 1876, she used the additional title of Empress of India.
Victoria was the daughter of Prince Edward, Duke of Kent and Strathearn, the fourth son of King George III. Both the Duke of Kent and the King died in 1820, and Victoria was raised under close supervision by her German-born mother Princess Victoria of Saxe-Coburg-Saalfeld. She inherited the throne at the age of 18, after her father's three elder brothers had all died without surviving legitimate issue. The United Kingdom was already an established constitutional monarchy, in which the Sovereign held relatively few direct political powers. Privately, she attempted to influence government policy and ministerial appointments. Publicly, she became a national icon, and was identified with strict standards of personal morality.
She married her first cousin, Prince Albert of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha, in 1840. Their nine children and 26 of their 34 grandchildren who survived childhood married into royal and noble families across the continent, tying them together and earning her the nickname "the grandmother of Europe". After Albert's death in 1861, Victoria plunged into deep mourning and avoided public appearances. As a result of her seclusion, republicanism temporarily gained strength, but in the latter half of her reign, her popularity recovered. Her Golden and Diamond Jubilees were times of public celebration.

We are vessels for. We’re models of. We write the history books with teeth and tongue. We legislate. We prophesy. We promise we’ll. We stole time from. You told me you’d. You said it was. You whispered it into my ear before you took. I’ve never seen. I’ve never felt. I’ve imagined what it’s to be my father’s greatest, my mother’s greatest…love. But o’ my dear it doesn’t seem so big now. This mountain feels more like a stone that I could grasp in the small of my hand and cast as you struggled and feigned to compose. You’d wince when I winked and smile and think, he’s perfect and I played the fool. That little boy wept the day that I left and pawned all his insides for gold. We are vessels for. We are models of. We stole time from, You said it was. You wrapped yourself in sweet kerosene and said “goodnight.” O’ where are you now?

head. Things you wrote to me, I guess you'll never see letters I never sent
and I wonder where I went wrong with you. Finally I can leave cause I see
the truth
Tried to sit down and talk, reasons fall on def ears, should I stay or
should I walk? What am I doing here? I thought you would save me but it was
a waste of time. You were a nightmare now it's time to say good bye, good
Everything you said to me never got under my skin it just got stuck in my
head. Things you wrote to me, I guess you'll never see letters I never sent
and I wonder where I went wrong with you. Finally I can leave cause I see

You were no good for me I was no good for you you were no goodfor me I was

Tell me that you'll never ever leave me
Then you go ahead and leave me
What the hell is going on
Tell me that you really really love me
Then you go ahead and leave me
How the hell do I go on...
Dear someone. I know your out there. If you can hear me, just show your face.
I've been waiting here for you. For as long as I can remeber.
You've been in and out of my dreams, I just wish that you were real.
I hope that someday, we'll be together. Once and forever.
I've been writing these letters to myself, hoping that maybe someday you will see
That in this love-song with you and me. I want to stay like this forever.
Just as long as your happy.
I know, that you're somewhere out there, somewhere on your own
I want to be with you forever. Just like it used to be.
Just like before you got too good for me.
I know that someday you will see. That you're the only one for me.
I've been writing these letters to myself, hoping that maybe someday you will see
That in this love-song with you and me. I want to stay like this forever.
Just as long as your happy.
And I know, that your the only one for me
And I know, that you've read those letters that have been written in my head
And I know, that we can find a better ending to this story without another broken heart.
Far from home You find me
Amidst the lost and dying
Nothing is fair in love and war
World's apart in desperation
Please erase this separation
Only You are worth fighting for
There?s love in every letter written
A hope that gets me through the day
Forever is never too long to wait
Some day soon we?ll be together
Where a moment last forever
Our love shines
Brighter than the stars
Until then I will remember
Every word and every letter
The promises
You?ve written on my heart
On my heart
I see the darkness blinding
And all that?s left are my dreams
To save me from the night
Your words of hope remind me
Somewhere the sun is shining
And don?t give up the fight
'Cause there?s love in every letter written
A hope that gets me through the day
Forever is never too long to wait
Some day soon we?ll be together
Where a moment last forever
Our love shines
Brighter than the stars
Until then I will remember
Every word and every letter
The promises
You?ve written on my heart

I wanna know every thing's alright
I need hope
I need love
I need life with you

Supposing that you find it by your bedside light
I'm hoping that it finds you a-okay
I hope I say it right
My love, My love
With you
I wanna know all there is to know about you
I wanna know the little things you do
Where you go
When you dream

I know that it will find me a-okay
I know you'll say it right
Webb
It was take 54 when she walked through the door
With the red light on it, I knew in a minute
If I wanted to get in it then I'd have to get on it
I sang my balls off for you, baby
I worked my fingers to the bone
I closed my eyes to get the high note
But when I woke up I was alone
Baby, baby come back
I need you to make a good track
Baby, baby come back
Baby, baby come back
Well, I saw her today back in studio A
We were just gettin' started
I sang for a minute, she couldn't get in it
I felt broken hearted
I sang my balls off for you, baby
I almost broke the microphone
I even sang the song that you wrote
But when I woke up I was alone
Oh, baby, baby, come back
I need you to make a good track
Baby, baby, come back
Baby, baby, come back
High note
But when I woke up I was alone
Baby, baby, come back
I need you to make a good track
Baby, baby, come back
B-b-b-baby, come back
"What are you going to do?" [x2]
"Nigga!"

[Kool G. Rap]
Rougher than Gotti, in tone
Got a body harder than Flintstone
Your girl got her skins boned
I'm diggin her down with my skintone
It's Brown-er than Bobby cause humpin is my hobby
Down in the end zone, with mens, that made her friends moan
Listen and learn and turn on your tuners if he looney
? ? I break, bang zoom, like Honeymooners
I don't want singers, but finger snappers, speaker slappers
The wickeder rapper the dapper rapper's when I flap my trapper
Got that ass gassed by Amoco, you know you ain't man to go
dead up, head up, so I set up to slam a hoe
I don't give a heck, but I don't peck on a redneck
You wanna pull cards, you're a dead deck, bed check
Lead my from tec, come and step up and get your head red
Wait a sec, you comin to see what's left?
I gotta catch my breath, rappers slayed
or played like Jeff to the left
And none of you nitwits can get with this hit shit
You dipstics, even Miss kiss, but no lipstick
I don't run a style but a mile to bust a child
Big ol snappy happy rappers smile like Gomer Pyle
Hell, I'm ringin bells with a ding-dong
I play you like ping-pong
You swingin on my ding-a-long King Kong
I pop bad cops, I got a pig a day habit
Bing bing BANG, just like the ricochet rapid
Grab it, your sound is just like a lady baby, maybe
you're old as Grady, still in the 80's, metaphors born in Haiti
I pop to the top, now the hip-hop glock pop rocks
Whenever it drops, I run over rappers at the record shop
You name your best I'll say, who, like owls
Pass me a towel, and I'ma move my bowels all over his vowels
Bring ten men, then I'll send my venom in em
You ain't gonna win em cause he got a women's momentum
And I don't wanna hear from this queer
Cause one of these niggaz just doesn't belong here
My rhymes are like the nine millimeter Beretta
Cause anything rappers could do yo I could do it better
"The K the double-O the L the G-R-A-P letters"
"My mic sound nice, check two"
"The K the double-O the L the G-R-A-P letters"
"sound nice" (cut and scratched)
You no-frill slow toy, cheap thrills, no joy
My lyrical skills give me Pillsbury Doughboy
Back, I'm packin em up like Jack the Ripper
Some pally'll I'm pullin the zipper
Finger popped, the better the batter or flipper
You're out of date, you must be the Late Show, I hate those
puttin on the brakes slow, uh-oh, better get Maaco
Dead-on, head-on collision, bad decision
You wanna see me nigga you better check your vision
It ain't 20/20 money silly bunny your funny
Your ass'll get smashed just like a crash test dummy
Retire, an MC that Oscar Meyer could take
Some of you wacky rappers just play anyway
that's B-O-L-O-G-N-A
So come and swing wild, mild child, and get your style hurt
HEY HEY HEY! Should I say it's Fatter than Albert
Play at your own risk, if you diss, got a lotta hot groups
turnin cold, better go and sip on some Swiss Miss
Inner city, actin like bitties, you're pussy
so here kitty kitty, come get some milk from my hoe's titties
Cross at the green not in between or get hit G
Red light, green light, one two three
Out for the dash, but in the flash, you shoulda let me pass
'fore crash, now that ass is in a bodycast
Everytime I put out my records and tapes
Motherfuckers go bananas like this was Planet of the Apes
Grapes I bust em like cherries and lay down, bitches purchase tickets
to ride the dick and sit down it like a Greyhound
Down with the clowns actin like killers, as good as wooden soldiers
See niggaz, you ain't even Magilla Guerillas
Bass in your face, stingin like mace
I'm bringin the right taste, hangin like waist
you see nothing but things that you imagine. you feel
something but you don't speak it out loud. trying,
hoping, hoping that this will fix it. doubting, knowing
that it isn't worth it and i shake my head while i try to
remember why we lost the feeling long ago. i won't so i
We write letters
We feel that there are things to tell
You told me about the winter
I told you about the summer rain
You told me about your favorite band, I think they sound a little better in print than on tape
We write letters
We feel that good friends should be kept
You wrote about a secret
I went around and thought of it all day
You told me about your worries and good times you had and the contents of your fridge
(I told you about)
You told me what I did already know
(I told you about)
I told you what I could never rid of, too
(I told you about)
I quote you as if you words were scripture
(I told you about)
You told me that everything was alright
You need to live for yourself
You need to get friends where you live
You need to live for yourself
You need to stop writing to me
You need to live for yourself
You need to get friends where you live
You need to live for yourself
You need to stop writing to me
We wrote letters
You're putting an end to this
I wrote about a feeling
I know it should have stayed in my head
A great art is lost when I gave up
It should have stayed in my head
(I told you about)
You told me what I did already know
(I told you about)
I told you what I could never live up to
(I told you about)
I quote you as if your words were scripture
(I told you about)
You told me that everything was alright
You need to live for yourself
You need to get friends where you live
You need to live for yourself
You need to stop writing to me
You need to live for yourself
You need to get friends where you live
You need to live for yourself
One night in the West Virginia mountains I got stranded in the deepening snow
I found important house and took a small room no TV magazines or radio
I've stood and watched the snow fall past the window
And as a traveling man would sometimes do
I've picked up the Bible and looked through it I found the stock of letters tied in blue
The letters had been left there by a young girl there were ten and as I read the first
I found that they were from a boy in Detroit
Who'd sent for her as soon as he got work
The first one mentioned her expected baby
The one and two and three were much the same
The fourth and fifth said that he might send to get her
The sixth and seventh offered her his name
The eighth and nineth were weeks apart in postmark
They were short and asked about her help
The tenth one was a tear stained on the pages
Said that he had married someone else
Next morning I felt guilty when I checked out
As the highway people cleared away the snow
I asked about the girl who used to live there
They said she passed away three weeks ago
Well I kept the letters but I never read them
Oh but somewhere up in Detroit there's a man
Who heard what happened down in West Virginia
You're leaving me here, dear
Alone with all your letters
You're letting it go, no
Like innocence and feathers
You're putting it down
Sounds slipping into songs
You're leaving me here, dear
Alone with all my wrongs
You're pulling away
Pray you're making the right choice
You're pulling away
Stay and listen to my voice
To my voice
Sooner or later you will long
When you wake you will see
Sooner or later all the songs
That make you shake will be by me
Sooner or later all the throngs of feelings
We used to appreciate will come rushing back
You're thinking about
How you thought you knew me better
You're looking around town
And wondering how I met her
You're pulling away
Pray you're making the right choice
You're pulling away
Stay and listen to my voice
To my voice
Sooner or later all the throngs or feelings
We used to appreciate will come rushing back
When you wake you will see
Don't wake me as you leave
Don't make me believe I have a chance in hell
Don't tell me what I know too well
Don't wake me
As you're leaving me here dear
Alone with all your letters
Don't let it go of your innocence and feathers
Now I find that every sound reminds me of our song
Since you left me here dear
Alone with all my wrongs
I'm not quite sure what I should feel anymore.
It's been two hard months
Since you walked from my door.
Though it's a third of the time that we shared
I just want to know if your heart is still there.
I've seen you running babe
You're chasing that sun
When you get there
Write me letters.
Let your hair down on my face and
We'll let our love grow in this place
Put your hands back into mine and
I'll write you love songs
If you'll send me letters.
I wrote this song for you,
It's not quite a Yellow but hell it's blue.
It seems I've been running out of words
To sing.
I've seen you running babe
You're chasing that sun
When you get there
Write me letters.
Let your hair down on my face and
We'll let our love grow in this place
Put your hands back into mine and
I'll write you love songs
If you'll send me letters.
I'll sing you love songs.
If you'll write me letters.
I used to take the subway
to 42nd and Broadway
Check my downtown mailbox
Check my downtown mailbox
Always felt much better
when I got a letter
In my downtown mailbox
In my downtown mailbox
Send me a letter
Send it to me when you want to reach me
Might be in California, New York City or Nashville,
Tennessee
Baby and I had a fight
I couldn’t sleep last night
Thought he didn’t want me no more
Thought he didn’t want me no more
I was satisfied
when I went outside
Found a letter on my front door
Letter on my front door
Send me a letter
Send it to me when you want to reach me
Might be in California, New York City or Nashville,
Tennessee
Early in the day late at night
Whatever you’re feeling you can always write
Send me a letter send it to me when you want to reach
It wasn’t very funny
I didn’t have much money
There was not much food on the table
Not much food on the table
I was feeling pretty low
I heard a knock at my door
It was Western Union with a cable
Western Union with a cable
Send me a letter
Send it to me when you want to reach me
Might be in California, New York City or Nashville,
Tennessee
Early in the day late at night
Whatever you’re feeling you can always write
Send me a letter, send it to me when you want to reach
When I was young, my grandma lived two hours away
When I first learned to write, I had a lot to say
I wrote her a letter every week
She couldn?t wait to get them, she couldn?t wait to see
What I was doing and all about my friends
What I was dreaming, places I had been
What I was hoping that I could be some day
I wrote it in my letters and I mailed them all away
She always wrote me back, every single week
And how I loved to get her letters from the time I could read
Years later I was going through her things
And I found all the letters, she had saved for me
When she went to Heaven, I cried so many tears
But she?s here in these letters, after all these years
What she was doing and all about her friends
What she was dreaming, places she had been
What she had hoped for and things she?d like to see
She wrote it in her letters and she mailed them off to me
Send a message, to my heart
Tell it everything, from the start
Make it honest, make it true
It's the only way, we'll see it through
Send them all, the letters
Fit them all, together
Set in stone, forever
Make it whole, and never
Tell a soul, endeavour
To be told
Send a message, to my heart
Send a message to my heart
With every beat I hear it speaking loud and clear
Send a message to my heart
Break it gently, or break me down
Don't say anything, don't make a sound
Actions, although they hurt
It's the feelings, that really burn
Send them all, the letters
Fit them all, together
Set in stone, forever
Make it whole, and never
Tell a soul, endeavour
To be told
Send a message, to my heart
Send a message to my heart
With every beat I hear it speaking loud and clear
Send a message to my heart
Send them all, the letters
Fit them all, together
Set in stone, forever
Make it whole, and never
Tell a soul, endeavour
To be told
Send a message to my heart
Send a message to my heart
Send a message to my heart
The Punks were pissed tonight
They just came here to fight
Did you notice I don't call anymore
I just might
Write stupid letters and say I'm alright
If you know me by now
You will probably start
To see through the lies
To read through the lines
You won't believe a latter
You read in my letter
No, you won't believe
So put your faith in me
I know you've found someone else
Someday it's gonna work for us
I'll put my feelings on a shelf
Trust is something my words won't buy
And now I know why
I see through the lies
I read through the lines
I won't believe a latter
I read in your letter
Love is like a letter wrote And life is like an envelope You can choose who you give it to But you cant choose who will give it to you
And you simply can't write back to everyone Coz that will leave you so confused and harshly judged And all of my dreams are in your hands You hold all of my dreams and know my plans
So why dont you send me on my way
Love is like a letter wrote And life is like an envelope Be careful who you give it to They might not give it back to you
And if everyone wrote back to everyone The trees would disappear without oxygen And all of my dreams are in your hands You know all of my strengths and weaknesses
