My favorite line from a song:

I've got it bad for you girl
But I dont need a cure
Ill just stay addicted
And hope I can endure

Hooked On A Feeling - BJ Thomas

S.O.B
You say I seem so grim. Do you forgive me. I went out on a limb. ‘cause I needed to be. Near the fireflies flying high above me. Then I hit the sky and it fell down on me. You said it wasn't sharp but I cut my finger. You said it just wouldn't burn and I scarred my face. You know I bite my nails, my skin and my fingers. And I've heard that's my liver, my nerves and my brain. I said I just like to bite on my ****ing fingers. Do you have another intelligent answer for me today. You said it wasn't sharp but I cut my finger. You said it just wouldn't burn and I scarred my face. You said it just wasn't there when it fell down on me. Well I'm just a son of a bitch no matter what you say. I lost my trust in you. You were dangerous and scary. And you poisoned me with the fruits everyone was intrigued by. And I finally got buried. You said I won't forget and I don't remember and You said I'm something I'm not and I fell on my face. You said I wouldn't rot but worms are crawling on me. I'm just a son of a bitch no matter what you say. I'm just a son of a bitch no matter what you say.

Calling All Angels
I need a sign to let me know you’re here
All of these lines are being crossed over the atmosphere
I need to know that things are gonna look up
‘Cause I feel us drowning in a sea spilled from a cup

When there is no place safe and no safe place to put my head
When you feel the world shake from the words that are said

I need a sign to let me know you’re here
‘Cause my TV set just keeps it all from being clear
I want a reason for the way things have to be
I need a hand to help build up some kind of hope inside of me

And I’m calling all angels
I’m calling all you angels

When children have to play inside so they don’t disappear
And private eyes solve marriage lies cause we don’t talk for years
And futbol teams are kissing Queens and losing sight of having dreams
In a world that what we want is only what we want until it’s ours

I’m calling all angels
I’m calling all you angels

I love Train, and anything by Five for Fighting has to be great, even though I've never heard that song.

I saw the music video for it this morning on mtv, and it almost made me cry. I was touched, lol.

Here I am sitting on the beach again, watching as the tides come rolling in. I miss the times that I looked into your eyes; a sacrafice I made for paradise. The objects in your mirror are closer then they actually appear....

~~~~
You are a dream.. this is the longest times I've been with someone. There's no explaining; no escaping. You are for real, and nothing will ever come between us. No need to look too deep.... I'll just never go to sleep.

:grr: I'll think of more later.

I have Several, but my favorite (even though I know it's over played...but I still love it and could listen to this song through eternity) is Bohemian Rhapysody.

Bohemian Rhapsody
{ Queen- written by Freddie Mercury }

Is this the real life?
Is this just fantasy?
Caught in a landside
no escape from reality
Open your eyes
look up to the skies and see

I'm just a poor boy
I need no sympathy
because I'm easy come
easy go, little high
little low
Anyway the wind blows doesn't really matter to me.....to me...

Mama
just killed a man
put a gun against his head
pulled my trigger now he's dead
Mama
life had just begun
and now i've gone and thrown it all away

Mama (oooooo)
didn't mean to make you cry if i'm not back again this time tomorrow, carry on, carry on
as if it doesn't really matter

Too late
my time has come
send shivers down my spine
bodies aching all the time
goodbye everybody
i've got to go
got to leave you all behind and face the truth

Mama (ooooo) (any way the wind blows)
I don't wanna die! Sometimes wish I had never been born at all.

*Brian May guitar solo, then a sort of tickling of the ivories if you will*

I see a little sillohuetto of a man
Scaramouch! Scaramouch!
will you do the fandango?
Thunderbolt and lightning!
Very very frightning me!
Galileo, Galileo,Galileo, Galileo, Galileo figaro!
Magnifico

I'm just a poor boy nobody loves me
He's just a poor boy from a poor family spare him his life from this monstrosity!
Easy come, Easy go...will you let me go?
Bismillat! NO WE WILL NOT LET YOU GO!
Let him go!
Bismillat! NO WE WILL NOT LET YOU GO!
Let him go!
Bismillat! NO WE WILL NOT LET YOU GO!
Let me go!
Will not let you go!
let me go! (never never never never)
Will not let you go
let me goooooo
NO NO NO NO NO NO NONO!
OH mama mia, mama mia, mama mia let me go!
Beelzebub, has the devil put a side for me? for me? for me?

(in comes the guitar and the usual headbanging)

So you think you can stop me and spit in my eyes?!
Do you think you can love me and leave me to die?!?!
Ooooo baby!
can't do this to me baby!
just gotta get out!
just gotta get right out!
and freedom !

Nothing really matters
anyone can see
nothing really matters to me...

Anyway the wind blows...... *John Deacon hits a gong*

Hurricane by Something Corporate


Shake down, you make me break,
for goodness sake I think I'm on the edge
of something new with you.
Shout out, don't drown the sound, I'll drown you out,
you'll never scream so loud
as I want to scream with you.

Standing there with your smile blinding your eyes
from seeing my face as I'm dying to figure out a girl.
(but she drifts so far away) But she drifts so far away,
I'm on her coast, so maybe I should stay and map around your world.

So Don't Say "These currents are still killing me"
and you can't explain
But the wind went and pulled me into the hurricane.

Stand up don't make a sound, your ears might bleed.
There are sweet fluorescent enemies that live inside of me.
The world moves faster than I knew,
not fast enough to not creep up on you and the space we put between.
So pull me under your weather patterns,
your cold fronts and the rain don't matter,
because a sun burns what I needed.

So Don't Say "These currents are still killing me"
and you can't explain
But the wind went and pulled me into the hurricane.

You don't do it on purpose
but you make me shake now I count the hours 'til you wake.
With your babies breath, breathe symphonies, come on sweet catastrophe.
well Maybe this time I can follow through, I can feel complete, stop paying dues.
Stop the rain from falling keep my oceans calm this time I know nothings wrong.

So Don't Say "These currents are still killing me"
and you can't explain
But the wind went and pulled me in and don't you

Don't say "These currents are still killing me"
and you can't explain
But the wind went and pulled me into your hurricane
Into your hurricane
Into your hurricane

Love is a bird, she needs to fly
Let all the hurt inside of you die
You're frozen
When your heart's not open

I guess this songs come to an end, I'll say goodbye until we meet again. You better stay out of my town. Cuz if I had my way, I'd call up Snoop, Ice Cube, and Dr. Dre we'd come and beat you down.

"But touch my tears with your lips, touch my world with your fingertips. And we can have forever, and we can love forever"

'Who Wants to Live Forever'-Queen

"Cause love's such an old fashioned word, and love dares you to care for the people on the edge of the night, and love dares you to change our way of caring about ourselves. This is our last dance, this is our last dance. This is ourselves."

Lynard Skynard - Freebird

If I leave here tomorrow
Would you still remember me?
For I must be travelling on, now,
'Cause there's too many places I've got to see.

"How can I belong to someone else when holding you feels so right?"

'Save Your Love'-Great White

"I never thought that I could carry on with this lie
But I can't resist myself no matter how hard I try
Living their other life is getting them nowhere
I'll make her my wife, her sweet temptation calls me home
Home, it's where I long for
My home, where she belongs
Her ecstasy-means so much to me
Even deceiving my own blood
Victoria watches and thoughtfully smiles
She's taking me to my home
Help-he's my brother, but I love her
I can't keep away from her touch
Deception, dishonor
It's calling me back to my home."

'Home'-Dream Theater
