Epiphany
-Stained-

your words to me just a whisper
you face is so unclear
I try to pay attention
your words just disappear

'cause it's always raining in my head
forget all the things I should have said

so I speak to you in riddles because my words get in my way
I smoke the whole thing to my head and feel it wash away
'cause I can't take anymore of this I wanna come apart
or dig my self a little hole
inside you precious heart

'cause it's always raining in my head
forget all the things I should of said
I am nothing more than a little boy inside who cries out for attention yet I always try to hide and I talk to you like children
but I don't know how I feel but I know I'll do the right thing
if the right thing is revealed
but it's always raining in my head
forget all the things I should have said.

Cellophane
~Amanda Ghost~

Nobody moves me I've been through this life with no place that I can call my own. Thinking above me I never seem to find anybody that can feel like home and I try and I try and I try. Funny how it feels when there's nothing to say. Trapped with my ideals I can't contain I'm wrapped in cellophane. Nobody told me obsessive needs were always following me around and you can't ignore me. Look at my face and then tell me my place in town and he's in and she's in and he's in and she's in and I try and I try and he's in and she's in and he's in and she's in.

~Five For Fighting~

I can't stand to fly
I'm not that naive
I'm just out to find
The better part of me

I'm more than a bird...I'm more than a plane
More than some pretty face beside a train
It's not easy to be me

Wish that I could cry
Fall upon my knees
Find a way to lie
About a home I'll never see

It may sound absurd...but don't be naive
Even Heroes have the right to bleed
I may be disturbed...but won't you concede
Even Heroes have the right to dream
It's not easy to be me

Up, up and away...away from me
It's all right...You can all sleep sound tonight
I'm not crazy...or anything

I can't stand to fly
I'm not that naive
Men weren't meant to ride
With clouds between their knees

I'm only a man in a silly red sheet
Digging for kryptonite on this one way street
Only a man in a funny red sheet
Looking for special things inside of me

It's not easy to be me.

I love the way you look at me.
I feel the pain you place inside.
Lock me up inside your dirty cage.
While I'm alone inside my mind.
I like to teach you all the rules.
I get to see them set in stone.
I like it when you chain me to the bed.
But then you seem to stand the show.

I need to feel you.
You need to feel me.
I can't control you.
You're not the one for me no.
I can't control you.
You can't control me.
I need to feel you.
So why is it even

I love the way you break my skin.
I feel the hate you place inside.
I need to get your voice out of my head.
Cause I am the guy you'll never find.
I think you know all of the rules.
There is no expressions on your face.
I hope someday you will let me go.
Release me from my dirty cage.


I need to feel you.
You need to feel me.
I can't control you.
You're not the one for me no.
I can't control you.
You can't control me.
I need to feel you.
So why is it even you and me.

I love the way you look at me.
I love the way you smack ass.
I love the dirty things you do.
I have control of you.

I need to feel you.
You need to feel me.
I can't control you.
You're not the one for me no.
I can't control you.
You can't control me.
I need to feel you.
So why is it even you and me.

Your not the one for me no

~Stuck in a moment you can't get out of~

I'm not afraid of anything in this world
There's nothing you can throw at me that I haven't already heard
I'm just trying to find a decent melody
A song that I can sing in my own company

I never thought you were a fool
But darling, look at you
You gotta stand up straight, carry your own weight
These tears are going nowhere, baby

You've got to get yourself together
You've got stuck in a moment and now you can't get out of it
Don't say that later will be better now you're stuck in a moment
And you can't get out of it

I will not forsake, the colours that you bring
But the nights you filled with fireworks
They left you with nothing
I am still enchanted by the light you brought to me
I still listen through your ears, and through your eyes I can see

And you are such a fool
To worry like you do
I know it's tough, and you can never get enough
Of what you don't really need now... my oh my

You've got to get yourself together
You've got stuck in a moment and now you can't get out of it
Oh love look at you now
You've got yourself stuck in a moment and now you can't get out of it

I was unconscious, half asleep
The water is warm till you discover how deep...
I wasn't jumping...for me it was a fall
It's a long way down to nothing at all

You've got to get yourself together
You've got stuck in a moment and now you can't get out of it
Don't say that later will be better now
You're stuck in a moment and you can't get out of it

And if the night runs over
And if the day won't last
And if our way should falter
Along the stony pass

And if the night runs over
And if the day won't last
And if your way should falter
Along the stony pass
It's just a moment
This time will pass

~The Hazies~
Skin and Bones

I saw you crying as a child,
trying to wipe out your tattoos
A little schoolgirl running wild,
just a baby with the blues

You never let your momma see
You send your love from a distance, yeah
You're everything she owns
Mind, body & soul, skin & bones

I saw you dancing in a dream
A thousand colors in your eyes
Violent green and tangerine
underneath a velvet sky
Then I watched you fade away
Into the sun, so crystal clear
When you come back from the wild,
you just die to read my mind -
Cause I know everything you fear

I give you everything I own,
mind body & soul,
skin & bones, everything we are

The moon, the sun, and stars, skin and bones
There's nowhere to hide...I see right
through to you, someday we'll find out
if we're only skin and bones, baby
someday we'll find out...
I lit a candle in your name
I watched it shoot across the night
and as the world went up in flames,
I found you lying by my side
I gave you everything I own,
mind, body and soul, skin & bones
Everything we are, the mon the sun & stars

Skin & bones
You head into the sky you never think
to wonder why...wonder why, we're just skin & bones
Just skin & bones
Is that all we are?
Whirling and turning and crashing and burning
Hoping and tripping and praying and screaming
and diving and drifting if you'd only listen
Someday we'll find out if we're only skin and bones
Someday we'll find out...

The Rolling Stones
~Almost Hear You Sigh~

I can almost hear you sigh
I can almost hear you cry
On every crowded street
All the places we would meet

What will I do without you
They say that life goes on
I'm feeling sorry for myself
I can't believe you're gone

You acted much too calm
You turned on all your charm
You had a cold look in your eyes

I can feel your tounge on mine
Silky smooth like wine
I'm living with these memories
That's all that's left of you and me

I can almost hear you sigh
Almost hear you cry
When you made sweet love to me
And you turned on all the charm
Acted much too calm
You had a cold look in your eyes

Did it mean nothing
Was it all in vain
Was I just your fool
Or was the pleasure pain

Have you set me free
Or will I wake up
In the morning
And find out it's been a bad dream

Come on, I beg you
I want to be your main man

I can almost hear you sigh
Almost hear you cry
When you made sweet love to me
Almost see your smile
It stretched half a mile
You had a stone cold look in your eyes

~Crawling~

Crawling in my skin
These wounds they will not heal
Fear is how I fall
Confusing what is real
Theres something inside me
that pulls beneath the surface

Consuming, confusing
This lack of self-control
I fear is never ending
Controlling
I cant seem to find myself again
my walls are closing in

(Without a sense of confidence Im convinced
theres just too much pressure to take)
Ive felt this way before so insecure.

Crawling in my skin
These wounds they will not heal
Fear is how I fall
Confusing what is real.

Discomfort endlessly has pulled itself upon me
Distracting, reacting against my will
I stand beside my own reflection
Its haunting, how I cant seem to find myself again
my walls are closing in
(Without a sense of confidence Im convinced theres
just too much pressure to take)
Ive felt this way before so insecure.

Crawling in my skin
These wounds they will not heal
Fear is how I fall
Confusing what is real
Crawling in my skin
These wounds they will not heal
Fear is how I fall
Confusing, confusing what is real

Red Hot Chilli Peppers
~Aeroplane~

Looking in my own eyes
I can't find the love I want
Someone better slap me
Before I start to rust
Before I start to decompose
Looking in my rear mirror
Looking in my rear mirror
I can make it disappear

I like pleasure spiked with pain
Music is my aeroplane
It's my aeroplane
Songbird sweet and sour Jane
It's my aeroplane

Sitting in my kitchen
I'm turning into dust again
My melancholy baby
The star of mazzy must

Push her voice inside of me
I'm overcoming gravity
I'm overcoming gravity
It's easy when you're sad to be

Just one note
Could make me float
Could make me float away
One note from
The song she wrote
Could fuck me where I lay
Just one note
Could make me choke
One note that's
Not a lie
Just one note
Could cut my throat
One could make me die

~Joshua Kadison~
Beautiful in my Eyes

You're my peace of mind in this crazy world.
You're everything I've tried to find, your love is a pearl.
You're my Mona Lisa, you're my rainbow skies,
and my only prayer is that you realize
you'll always be beautiful in my eyes.

The world will turn and the seasons will change,
and all the leassons we will learn will be beautiful and strange.
We'll have our fill of tears, our share of sighs.
My only prayer is that you realize
you'll always be beautiful in my eyes.


You will always be beautiful in my eyes.
And the passing years will show
that you will always grow more beautiful in my eyes.


When there are lines upon my face form a lifetime of smiles,
and when the time comes to embrace for one long last while,
we can laugh about how time really flies.
We won't say goodbye 'cause true love never dies.
You'll always be beautiful in my eyes.


You will always be beautiful in my eyes.
And the passing years will show
that you will always grow more beautiful in my eyes.
The passing years will show that you will always grow
ever more beautiful in my eyes.

~Eve 6~
Here's to the Night

So denied so I lied are you the now or never kind
In a day and a day love I'm gonna be gone for good again
Are you willing to be had are you cool with just tonight
Here's a toast to all those who hear me all too well

Here's to the nights we felt alive
Here's to the tears you knew you'd cry
Here's to goodbye
Tomorrow's gonna come too soon

Put your name on the line along with place and time
Wanna stay not to go I wanna ditch the logical
Here's a toast to all those who hear me all too well

Here's to the nights we felt alive
Here's to the tears you knew you'd cry
Here's to goodbye
Tomorrow's gonna come too soon

All my time is froze in motion
Can't I stay an hour or two or more
Don't let me let you go
Here's a toast to all those who hear me all too well

Here's to the nights we felt alive
Here's to the tears you knew you'd cry
Here's to goodbye
Tomorrow's gonna come too soon

Santana (lyrics by Rob Thomas)
~Smooth~

Man its a hot one
Like seven inches from the midday sun
I hear you whisper & the words melt everyone
But you stay so cool
My mu-equita, my Spanish harlem mona lisa
Your my reason for reason
The step in my groove

And if you say this life aint good enough
I would give my world to lift you up
I could change my life to better suit your mood
Cause youre so smooth

And just like the ocean under the moon
Well thats the same emotion that I get from you
You got the kind of lovin that can be so smooth
Gimme your heart, make it real
Or else forget about it

Ill tell you one thing
If you would leave it would be a crying shame
In every breath and every word I hear your name calling me out
Out from the barrio, you hear my rhythm from your radio
You feel the turning of the world so soft and slow
Turning you round and round

DreaminG

No words, no talk.
We'll go dreaming
No pain, no hurt.
We'll go dreaming

Walk with me,
The future's at hand.
Here with us,
Here where you stand.
We both know the power of pain,
We get back up and start it again.
With new hope, no place for tears,
Leave behind those frozen years.
Come with me and the dream.

We don't know how it can be,
Searvhing out dignity.
Nothing can be as savage as love,
One taste is never enough.
With new hope, no place for tears.
Catch my hand and come with me.
Close your eyes and dream.

No words, no talk.
We'll go dreaming
No pain, no hurt.
We'll go dreaming
No words, no talk.
We'll go dreaming
No pain, no hurt.
We'll go dreaming

Walk with me,
The future's at hand.
Here with us,
Here where we stand.
We both know the power of pain,
We get back up and start it again.
With new hope, no place for tears,
Leave behind those frozen years.
Come with me and the dream.

We don't know how it can be,
Searching out dignity.
Nothing can be as savage as love,
One taste is never enough.
With new hope, no place for tears.
Catch my hand and come with me.
Close your eyes and dream.

No words, no talk.
We'll go dreaming
No pain, no hurt.
We'll go dreaming
No words, no talk.
We'll go dreaming
No pain, no hurt.
We'll go dreaming
(repeat)

We'll go dreaming.
We'll go dreaming.
We'll go dreaming.
We'll go dreaming.
We'll go dreaming.
We'll go dreaming.
We'll go dreaming.
We'll go dreaming.
We'll go dreaming.

Catch my hand and come with me.
Close your eyes and dream.

No words, no talk.
We'll go dreaming
No pain, no hurt.
We'll go dreaming

I Want To Be In Love

I have climbed the highest mountain, I have sailed across the sea
I have wrestled with my demons, and woke up with only me
I have been around the block, three times maybe four
And I think I deserve just a little more

In front of total strangers won't you kiss me
Flowers for no reason but you miss me
Oh oh, I want to be in love
You're standing on the doorstep in the rain
Cause you couldn't wait to see me once again
Oh oh, I want to be in love
I have made some big mistakes, and I've paid a heavy price
I found a little peace between will and sacrifice
I have watched as all my dreams went walking out the door
And I think I deserve just a little more

I'm looking for a heart of gold, I'm looking for a hand to hold
A happy end, strong and kind, somewhere to rest my troubled mind.

On Tuesday light the candles, bring me wine
Wednesday morning I won't get to work on time
Oh oh, I want to be in love
Yeah surprise me as I'm stepping off the plane
Take my hand as they play our song again
Oh oh, I want to be in love
I want to be.

In love, in love, in love, in looooooove
I want to be in love
I want to be in love

I got a little bit of hope,
Like a soap on a rope,
Sweeter than sour
Getting thinner by the hour.
Fallin' fast,
And I'm runnin' out of gas,
Muggin' on your sister,
Smart as Bobby Fischer.

Still, I couldn't get arrested,
Though I've got more hooks than Madonna got looks,
Just like that AC/DC song.
"Come on, baby, shake me all night long."

All I wanna do
Is stay up early in the morning. (Oh, I love you, baby!)
And all I gotta say, yeah,
Is your love's extraordinary.
You're extraordinary, baby.

Somebody push me through the door.
I been sleeping on a floor.
31 flavors,
Listen to the neighbors
Through the wall
At a debutante ball.
Cuma lada vista
Got a Mona Lisa.

So much for the late rent,
Cause your money's spent and it's cold inside.
But just like that Barenaked Ladies song,
I'm "hot like wasabe" when I'm next to your body.

All I wanna do
Is stay up early in the morning. (Oh, I love you, baby!)
And all I gotta say, yeah,
is your love's extraordinary.
You're extraordinary, baby.

Ain't love such a sweet thang?
Ain't love such a sweet thang?
YEAH!!!

All I wanna do
Is stay up early in the morning. (Oh, I love you, baby!)
And all I gotta say, yeah,
Is your love's extraordinary.
You're extraordinary.

All I wanna do (Ain't love such a sweet thang?)
Is stay up early in the morning. (Oh, I love you, baby!)
And all I gotta say, yeah, (Ain't love such a sweet thang?)
Is your love's extraordinary.
You're extraordinary.

All I wanna do (All I)
All I wanna do (All I)

WhereveR you Will Go

so lately, been wondering
who will be there to take my place
when im gone, youll need love to light the shadows
on your face
if a great wave shall fall upon us all
then between the sand and stone, could you make it
on your own

if i could, then i would
ill go wherever you will go
way up high or down low

and maybe ill find out
a way to make it back someday
to watch you, to guide you, through the darkest of
your days
if a great wave shall fall and fall upon us all
then i hope theres someone out there
who can bring me back to you

run away with my heart
run away with my hope
run away with my love

i know now, just quite how
my life and love may still go on
in your heart, in your mind, ill stay with you for
all of time

run away with my heart
run away with my hope
run away with my love
