Okay, I guess I'll succumb, but I'm done with exams, so I don't care anymore!
Okay so put your play list on random and post your favorite lyrics of the first 20 songs that show up so that we (you) can have fun guessing what the hell it is that I listen to :-)
1. Tell me the air up here's too thin
You can't feel the wind when it moves
Tell me the stars are made of tin
and that they're banging on the roof
2. Half of the time we're gone but we don't know where,
And we don't know here.
Tom, get your plane right on time.
I know you've been eager to fly now.
Hey let your honesty shine, shine, shine.
3.Oh I don't like the signs that the signmakers made.
So I'm going to steal out with my paint and brushes
I'll change the directions, I'll hit every street
It's the Tinseltown scandal, the Robin Hood vandal
She goes out and steals the King's English
And in the morning you wake up and the signs point to you
4.'Cos there's beauty in the breakdown
It gains the more it gives
And it rises with the fall
So hand me that remote
Can't you see that all that stuff's a sideshow
5.If you're looking for a war
There's a market for betrayal
Don't ask me what I saw
Y'know my secrets not for sale
Don't ask me what I heard
Y'know I promised not to say
I said I'd never breathe a word
6. For the crown you've placed upon my head feels too heavy now
And i don't know what to say to you but i'll smile anyhow
And all the time i'm thinking, thinking
I want to be a hunter again
Want to see the world alone again
7. What made us think that we were wise and
We'd never compromise
For the life of me I cannont believe
We'd ever die for these sins
8. Free-fall, call Ophelia
Clutching at straw
Mixed with bloody feathers
From scruff of neck of crow
Johnny go! Johnny gone!
Too much drink in your tum-tum-tum
See this finger, see this thumb
See this fist and watch it come
9.I've touched this place before
Somewhere in another time
Now I can hear the sun
The clouds drifting through the blinds
A half a million thoughts
Are flowing through my mind
A satellite recalled your voice
Sent me round the world again
All the night you've dreamt away
Sent me round my heart again
One touch upon my lips
And all my thoughts are clear
10. I tried to be but I'm not,
So could you please collect your things,
I don't wanna be cold, I don't wanna be cruel,
But I gotta find more than what's happening to you
'Cause while you were sleeping, I was listening to the radio
and wondering what you're dreaming,
when it came to mind that I didn't care...
11. To see the world through your Rosy glasses
I'll teach you to fly but they teach greed
We live the belt but I can bleed
I don't know....
What I can't see....
12. Now I know
There was a reason for it all
And I am not lonely anymore
I got my reward
That's why I am loved
13. Dawn breaks like a bull through the hall,
Never should have called
But my head's to the wall and I'm lonely.
And if you'd 'a took to me like
A gull takes to the wind.
Well, I'd 'a jumped from my tree
And I'd a danced like the kind of the eyesores
And the rest of our lives would 'a fared well.
14. And all the roads we have to walk along are winding
And all the lights that lead us there are blinding
There are many things that I would
Like to say to you
I don't know how
15. let me tell you what it's all about,
it's called money dependence today,
and people just keep on going on
looking at the dollar bill,
and nothing else around them.
no love, no friendship, nothing else,
just the dollar bill coming on into their pocket,
into their bank account,
and that's too much of heaven
bringing them underground.
16. Why am I soft in the middle
The rest of my life is so hard
I need a photo-opportunity
I want a shot at redemption
Don't want to end up a cartoon
In a cartoon graveyard
17. Yes I'm Fariweather Johnson (Like the Braves in '95)
18. All the time, night or day
There is no choice, it's just the way
You should quit, yes you know
But where the hell would you go?
You're like me, in a bind
Now you see
Love ain't blind
19. I'm movin' so slow throughout my life
Smellin' the roses that grow down by the tide
I'm waitin' for something to soothe my soul
When the music hits, I know where to go.
20.I don't understand
Your ways and means
You smashing young man
Help me to see
The good you have planned
You're wearing thin
You smashing young man
Anyway, headed home tonight and sleeping as much as is humanly possible to try and get better, and then just hanging out, see some of you in atlanta!
