Behind the Wall of Sleep/Wasp/Bassically/N.I.B

Black Sabbath

Precious cups within the flower

deadly petals with strange power

faces shine a deadly smile

back up on you at your trial

Chill and numbs from head to toe

icy sun with frosty glow

Why'd you go reaching your sorrow?

why'd you go read no tomorrow

Feel your spirit rise with the priest

feel your body falling to its knees

Take your walk of remorse

take your body to a corpse

take your body to a corpse

take your body to a corpse

if you want all remorse

take your body to a corpse

Now from darkness, there springs light

Wall of Sleep is cold and bright

Wall of Sleep is lying broken

Sun shines in, you are awoken

Oh yeah!

Some people say my love cannot be true

please believe me, my love, and I'll show you

I will give you those things you thought unreal

The sun, the moon, the stars all bear my seal

Oh yeah!

Follow me now and you will not regret

leaving the life you led before we met

You are the first to have this love of mine

forever with me 'till the end of time

Your love for me has just got to be real

before you know the way I'm going to feel

I'm going to feel

I'm going to feel

Oh yeah!

Now I have you with me, under my power

Our love grows stronger now with every hour

Look into my eyes, you'll see who I am

my name is Lucifer, please take my hand

Oh yeah!

Follow me now and you will not regret

leaving the life you led before we met

You are the first to have this love of mine

forever with me 'till the end of time

Your love for me has just got to be real

before you know the way I'm going to feel

I'm going to feel

I'm going to feel

Oh yeah!

Now I have you with me, under my power

Our love grows stronger now with every hour

Look into my eyes, you'll see who I am

my name is Lucifer, please take my hand

Castles Made of Sand


Jimi Hendrix





Down the street you can hear her scream "you're a disgrace"

As she slams the door in his drunken face,

And now he stands outside and all the neighbours start to gossip and drool.

He cries "Oh girl, you must be mad,

What happened to the sweet love you and me had?"

Against the door he leans and starts a scene,

And his tears fall and burn the garden green.

And so castles made of sand, fall in the sea, eventually.

A little Indian brave who before he was ten, played war games in

the woods with his Indian friends, and he built a dream that when he

grew up, he would be a fearless warrior Indian Chief.

Many moons passed and more the dream grew strong, until tomorrow

He would sing his first war song,

And fight his first battle, but something went wrong,

Surprise attack killed him in his sleep that night

And so castles made of sand, melt into the sea eventually.

There was a young girl, whose heart was a frown,

Because she was crippled for life, and couldn't speak a sound

And she wished and prayed she would stop living, so she decided to die.

She drew her wheel chair to the edge of the shore, and to her legs she smiled

"You won't hurt me no more."

But then a sight she'd never seen made her JUMP AND SAY

"Look, a golden winged ship is passing my way"

And it really didn't have to stop...it just kept on going.

And so castles made of sand slips into the sea,



Eventually

Crazy


Shawn Colvin



(Gnarls Barkley cover)

I remember when, I remember

I remember when I lost my mind

There was something so pleasant about that place

Even your emotions have an echo in so much space

And when you're out there without care

Yeah, I was out of touch

But it wasn't because I didn't know enough

I just knew too much

Does that make me crazy?

Does that make me crazy?

Does that make me crazy?

Possibly

And I hope that you are

Having the time of your life

But think twice

That's my only advice

Come on now, who do you

Who do you, who do you, who do you think you are?

Ha ha ha, bless your soul

You really think you're in control?

Well, I think you're crazy

I think you're crazy

I think you're crazy

Just like me

My heroes had the heart

To lose their lives out on a limb

And all I remember

Is thinking, I want to be like them

Ever since I was little

Ever since I was little

It looked like fun

And it's no coincidence I've come

And I can die when I'm done

But maybe I'm crazy

Maybe you're crazy

Maybe we're crazy

Probably

Looking through the eyes of love - Melissa Manchester

Please, don't let this feeling end

It's everything I am

Everything I want to be

I can see what's mine now

Finding out what's true

Since I found you

Looking through the eyes of love

Now, I can take the time

I can see my life

As it comes up shining now

Reaching out to touch you

I can feel so much

Since I found you

Looking through the eyes of love

And now, I do believe

That even in a storm we'll find some light

Knowing you're beside me, I'm all right

Please, don't let this feeling end

It might not come again

And I want to remember

How it feels to touch you

How I feel so much

Since I found you

Looking through the eyes of love

Moving in Stereo


The Cars



life's the same I'm moving in stereo

life's the same except for my shoes

life's the same you're shaking like tremolo

life's the same it's all inside you

it's so easy to blow up your problems

it's so easy to play up your breakdown

it's so easy to fly through a window

it's so easy to fool with the sound

it's so tough to get up

it's so tough

it's so tough to live up

it's so tough on you

Dangerous Type


The Cars


Can I touch you, are you out of touch

I guess I never noticed that much

Geranium lover, I'm live on your wire

Come and take me whoever you are

She's a lot like you

The dangerous type

She's a lot like you

Come on and hold me tight

Inside angel, always upset

Keep on forgetting that we ever met

Can I bring you out in the light

My curiosity's got me tonight

She's a lot like you

The dangerous type

She's a lot like you

Come on and hold me tight

The museum directors with their high shaking heads

They kick white shadows until they play dead

They want to crack your crossword smile

Can I take you out for awhile

She's a lot like you

The dangerous type

She's a lot like you

Come on and hold me tight

Bye Bye Love

The Cars

I can't feel this way much longer

expecting to survive

with all these hidden innuendos

just waiting to arrive

it's such a wavy midnight

when you slip into insane

electric angel rock and roller

i hear what you're playing

it's an orange sky

always it's some other guy

it's just a broken lullaby

bye bye love

bye bye love

bye bye love

bye bye love

substitution mass confusion

clouds inside my head

were fogging all my energies

until you visited

eyes of porcelain and blue

could shock me into sense

you think you're so illustrious

you call yourself intense

Save me from this prison


Lord help me get away



Cause only you can save me now



From this misery



I've been lost in my own place



And I'm gettin' weary



How far is heaven



And I know that I need to change



My ways of livin'



How far is heaven,



Lord can you tell me


 


I've been locked up way too long



In this crazy world,



How far is heaven



And I just keep on prayin' Lord



And just keep on livin',



How far is heaven



Yeah, Lord can you tell me,



How far is heaven



I just gotta know how far is,



How far is heaven



Yeah, Lord can you tell me


 


Tu que estas en alto cielo,



Echame tu bendiciòn



[translated from Spanish]



[You that are in at higher heaven



throw me down your blessing]


 


I know there's a better place



Than this place I'm livin',



How far is heaven



And I just got to have some faith



And just keep on givin',



How far is heaven



Yeah, Lord can you tell me,



How far is heaven



I just gotta know how far is,



How far is heaven,



Yeah, Lord can you tell me,



How far is heaven,



I just gotta know how far,



I just wanna know how far

Stairway to Heaven


Led Zep




There's a lady who's sure all that glitters is gold

And she's buying the stairway to heaven.

When she gets there she knows, if the stores are all closed

With a word she can get what she came for.

Ooh, ooh, and she's buying the stairway to heaven.

There's a sign on the wall but she wants to be sure

'Cause you know sometimes words have two meanings.

In a tree by the brook, there's a songbird who sings,

Sometimes all of our thoughts are misgiven.

Ooh, it makes me wonder,

Ooh, it makes me wonder.

There's a feeling I get when I look to the west,

And my spirit is crying for leaving.

In my thoughts I have seen rings of smoke through the trees,

And the voices of those who stand looking.

Ooh, it makes me wonder,

Ooh, it really makes me wonder.

And it's whispered that soon if we all call the tune

Then the piper will lead us to reason.

And a new day will dawn for those who stand long

And the forests will echo with laughter.

If there's a bustle in your hedgerow, don't be alarmed now,

It's just a spring clean for the May queen.

Yes, there are two paths you can go by, but in the long run

There's still time to change the road you're on.

And it makes me wonder.

Your head is humming and it won't go, in case you don't know,

The piper's calling you to join him,

Dear lady, can you hear the wind blow, and did you know

Your stairway lies on the whispering wind.

And as we wind on down the road

Our shadows taller than our soul.

There walks a lady we all know

Who shines white light and wants to show

How everything still turns to gold.

And if you listen very hard

The tune will come to you at last.

When all are one and one is all

To be a rock and not to roll.

And she's buying the stairway to heaven.

Heaven Help


Lenny Kravitz


There comes a time to be free of the heart

I wanna be ready, ready to start

On a love journey, got places to go

Made up my mind and I have got to let you know

Heaven help the heart that lets me inside

Heaven help the one who comes in my life

Heaven help the fool that walks through my door

'Cause I decided right now, I'm ready for love

Oh, I'm ready for love

A funny feeling's coming over me

Now I'm inspired and open to being

In a love place but it's out of my hands

I'm telling you baby that you've got to understand

Heaven help the heart that lets me inside

Heaven help the one who comes in my life

Heaven help the fool that walks through my door

'Cause I decided right now, I'm ready for love

Ready for love

I can't see what's out there for me

And I know love offers no guarantee

I'll take a chance and I'm telling you something babe

I got to let you know

Heaven help the heart that lets me inside

Heaven help the one who comes in my life

Heaven help the fool that walks through my door

'Cause I decided right now, I'm ready for love

Ah, oh, oh, ready for love (oh)

Take a chance, take a chance on love (the heart)

Ah ah, ah ah, ah ah ah, ah ah (the fool)

Only Women Bleed


Alice Cooper



Man's got his woman to take his seed

He's got the power - oh

She's got the need

She spends her life through pleasing up her man

She feeds him dinner or anything she can

She cries alone at night too often

He smokes and drinks and don't come home at all

Only women bleed

Only women bleed

Only women bleed

Man makes your hair gray

He's your life's mistake

All you're really lookin' for is an even break

He lies right at you

You know you hate this game

He slaps you once in a while and you live and love in pain

She cries alone at night too often

He smokes and drinks and don't come home at all

Only women bleed

Only women bleed

Only women bleed

Black eyes all of the time

Don't spend a dime

Clean up this grime

And you there down on your knees begging me please come

Watch me bleed

Only women bleed

Only women bleed

Only women bleed

Only women bleed

Only women bleed

Please come to Boston - Dave Loggins

Please come to Boston for the springtime

I'm stayin' here with some friends and they've got lots of room

You can sell your paintings on the sidewalk

By a café where I hope to be workin' soon

Please come to Boston

She said no, would you come home to me

and she said, hey ramblin' boy, why don't you settle down

Boston ain't your kind of town

There ain't no gold and there ain't nobody like me

I'm the number one fan of the man from Tennessee

Please come to Denver with the snowfall

We'll move up into the mountains so far that we can't be found

And throw "I love you" echoes down the canyon

And then lie awake at night til they come back around

Please come to Denver

She said no, boy, would you come home to me

Now this drifter's world goes 'round and 'round

And I doubt that it's ever gonna stop

But of all the dreams I've lost or found

And all that I ain't got

I still need to cling to

Somebody I can sing to

Please come to LA to live forever

California life alone is just too hard to build

I live in a house that looks out over the ocean

And there's some stars that fell from the sky

Livin' up on the hill

Please come to LA

She just said no, boy, won't you come home to me

I'm the number one fan of the man from Tennessee

Saturday Night Special Lyrics


Artist(Band):Lynyrd Skynyrd

Two feets they come a creepin'

Like a black cat do

And two bodies are layin' naked

Creeper think he got nothin' to lose

So he creeps into this house, yeah

And unlocks the door

And as a man's reaching for his trousers

Shoots him full of .38 holes

(Chorus)

Mr.Saturday night special

Got a barrel that's blue and cold

Ain't no good for nothin'

But put a man six feet in a hole

Big Jim's been drinkin' whiskey

And playing poker on a losin' night

And pretty soon, Big Jim starts a thinkin'

Somebody been cheatin' and lyin'

So Big Jim commences to fightin'

I wouldn't tell you no lie

And Big Jim done pull his pistol

Shot his friend right between the eyes

(Chorus)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HK_EyS6xamc

Oooh Saturday night special...

For twenty dollars you can buy yourself one too...

Oooh let me tell you all about it...

Well hand guns are made for killin'

They ain't no good for nothin' else

And if you like to drink your whiskey

You might even shoot yourself

So why don't we dump 'em people

To the bottom of the sea

Before some ole fool come around here

Wanna shoot either you or me

(Chorus)

Ooooh it's a Saturday night special

And I'd like to tell you what you can do with it too...

Die Young


Black Sabbath





Gather the wind

Though the wind won't help you fly at all

Your back's to the wall

Then chain the sun

And then it turns around and face you

As you run, you run, you run!

Behind a smile

There's danger and a promise to be told

You'll never get old

Life's fantasy

To be locked away and still to think you're free

You're free

You're free!

So live for today

Tomorrow never comes

Die young, die young

Can't you see the writing in the air?

Die young, gonna die young

Someone stopped the fair

Gather the wind

Though the wind won't help you fly at all

Your back's to the wall

Then chain the sun

And then it turns around and face you

As you run, you run, you run!

So live for today

Tomorrow never comes

Die young, young

Die young, die young

Die young, die young, young

Die young

Tomorrow


Silverchair






It's twelve o'clock, and it's a wonderful day,



I know you hate me, but I'll ask anyway,



Won't you come with me, to a place in a little town,



The only way to get there's to go straight down,



There's no bathroom, and there is no sink,



The water out of the tap is very, hard to drink,



Very hard to drink,


 


You, wait till tomorrow,



You, wait till tomorrow,


 


You say that money, isn't everything,



But I'd like to see you live without it,



You think you can keep on going living like a king,



Oohh babe, but I strongly doubt it,


 


Very hard to drink,



Very hard to drink,



You gonna wait too, fat boy,



Fat boy, wait till tomorrow,



You gonna wait too, fat boy,



Fat boy, wait till tomorrow,


 


You, wait till tomorrow,



You, wait till tomorrow... comes,



You gonna wait too, fat boy,



Fat boy, wait till tomorrow,



You gonna wait too, fat boy,



Fat boy, wait till tomorrow.

And give in



Doesn't matter what you believe in

And be somebody's fool this year



'cause they know



Who is righteous, What is bold



So I'm told



Who wants honey



As long as there's some money



Who wants that honey?


 


Hipsters unite



Come align for the big fight to rock for you



But beware



All those angels with their wings glued on



'cause deep down



They are frightened and they're scared



If you don't stare

As long as there's some money



Who wants that honey?


 


Let me out

Cannot help but believe this is true



Tell me all of your secrets

Who wants that honey?

Wez honey, what is happening to your lyrics choices? :eek:
hahahaha.. I like the song..

Here's what Daniel John from the band said it's about in an interview with Aquarian Weekly back in 1996.. Kinda cool from a group of 15 year old Australians at that time..


AW:What was the inspiration behind Tomorrow?


DJ:That was on a TV show. There was this poor guy taking a rich guy through a hotel to experience the losses of the less fortunate than him. The rich guy is just complaining because he just wants to get out and the poor guy is saying you have to wait till tomorrow to get out. That's one of our least serious songs but it still has meaning to it.

Catch the Rainbow

Rainbow

When evening falls

She'll run to me

Like whispered dreams

Your eyes can't see

Soft and warm

She'll touch my face

A bed of straw

Against the lace

We believed we'd catch the rainbow

Ride the wind to the sun

Sail away on ships of wonder

But life's not a wheel

With chains made of steel

So bless me come the dawn

Come the dawn

Man on the Silver Mountain


Rainbow





I'm a wheel, I'm a wheel

I can roll, I can feel

And you can't stop me turning

'Cause I'm the sun, I'm the sun

I can move, I can run

But you'll never stop me burning

Come down with fire

Lift my spirit higher

Someone's screaming my name

Come and make me holy again

I'm the man on the silver mountain

I'm the man on the silver mountain

I'm the day, I'm the day

I can show you the way

And look I'm right beside you

I'm the night, I'm the night

I'm the dark and the light

With eyes that see inside you

Just look at me and listen

I'm the man, the man, give you my hand

Come down with fire

Lift my spirit higher

I'm the man on the silver mountain

I'm the man on the silver mountain

I'm the night the light

The black and the white

The man on the silver mountain
