See my sig.......

Oh boy... so many good lyrics to chose from.

"I'm trapped in a vile world, where the ending's all the same as every other; we're only here to die." -A7X "Save Me"

"On the day old Curtis died nobody came to pray
old preacher said some words
they chucked him in the clay
well he lived a lifetime playin the black mans blues
and on the day he lost his life thats all he had to lose" - "Ballad of Curtis Lowe", Lynyrd Skynyrd.


"Body suspended by chains over razors
And nails it's a penalty
Each razor a vice and each nail
Marks the demise of your life.
Grim construction grow" - Pantera "Domination"

"On a cobweb afternoon
in a room full of emptiness
by a freeway i confess
i was lost in the pages
of a book full of death
reading how we'll die alone" - Audioslave "Like A Stone"


Some of my favorites.

No doubt.....There are just so many....

You are like a hurricane
There's calm in your eye.
And I'm gettin' blown away
To somewhere safer
where the feeling stays.
I want to love you but
I'm getting blown away.
-Neil Young, Like a Hurricane


Growing up it all seems so one-sided
Opinions all provided
The future pre-decided
Detached and subdivided
In the mass production zone
Nowhere is the dreamer or the misfit so alone
-Rush, Subdivisions

Sounds of laughter shades of life
are ringing through my open ears
exciting and inviting me
Limitless undying love which
shines around me like a million suns
It calls me on and on across the universe
-Beatles (specifically George Harrison), Across The Universe

I am just a poor boy
Though my story's seldom told
I have squandered my resistance
For a pocket full of mumbles such are promises
All lies and jests
Still a man hears what he wants to hear
And disregards the rest

-Simon and Garfunkel, The Boxer

I have my books
And my poetry to protect me;
I am shielded in my armor,
Hiding in my room, safe within my womb.
I touch no one and no one touches me.
I am a rock,
I am an island.
-Simon and Garfunkel, I Am A Rock


Hair on your nipples
Zits on your box
In Oklahoma city
You're considered a fox
What did you have to do
For that backstage pass
'Cause I found a Poison laminate inside of your ass
-Steel Panther, Girl From Oklahoma

Poetry.

"Supposin' I was to go to work and learn how to... to read writin'. Well, how'd I know that the feller that... that wrote the writin' was a writin' the writin' right? See it could be that he wrote the writin' all wrong. Here I'd be just a readin' wrong writin', don't ya see? You probably been doin' it your whole life, just a readin' wrong writin' and not even knowin‘ it"

Festus Haggen
