I've fallen in love with The Smashing Pumkins again. I love their music so much.
If you aren't familiar with these songs I strongly recommend getting them, or at least listening to them once. *They're off the 'MACHINA/The Machines of God' album.*
This Time
This time I need to know
I really must be told
If it's over
It's up to you you know
The things you want to hold
Are in pieces
Crashing down
Crashing down again
Crashing down
Crashing down my friends
I've got to move it on
I've got to sing my song
While I still can
Dispatch the last alarms
Hand out the last few charms
There's no surprises
Only love yeah
Only love can win
Crashing down
Crashing down, my friends
This time I need to know
I really must be told
That it's over
I've lived my life alone
My every step foretold
To never linger
And yet it haunts me so
What we are letting go
Our spell is broken
Crashing down
Crashing down, my friends
Crashing down
Crashing down again
Only love, yeah
Only love will be enough
Yeah, only love will win
For every chemical
You trade a piece of your soul
With no return
And who you think you know
Doesn't know you at all
Their drain is needless
Someday we'll wave hello
And wish we'd never waved goodbye
To this romance
We'll drink up every line
And shoot up every word
Till there's no more
Crashing down
Crashing down, my friends
Only love
Only love can win
So cry these tears
We'll cry as all
We've held so long to fall apart
As the curtain falls
We bid you all goodnight
Wound
There you are as you always were
In bathing light and naked blue
You're a part of me eternal one
By grand design and setting sun
If you wait I will wait
Taste I will taste
If you love I will love
Run I will run
To my last breath
Last night I turned around and thought I saw myself turning
Inside the strangest dream of life unloved and cities burning
Awake in my arms you cry unshamed
Our age of the hours while they still devour all
So take it all, I doubt if we will know it's gone
'Cause we've been here since time began
Begged God awake and make these plans
Wound opens, reveal this broken man
And soon there's notions of blood on his hands
If you wait, I will wait
Taste, I will taste
If you love, I will love
Run, I will run
To my last breath
Last night I turned around and thought I saw myself turning
Last night I turned around and thought I watched the world ending
Inside the crushing down I felt a pang, the tide was turning
Destroyed in the wake
The jealous ingrates
Who'll tear this world down
To spite God above
With his own love
With his own love
If you wait, if you wait
If you wait, I will wait
Taste, I will taste
If you love, I will love
Run, I will run
To my last breath
