Talking to the Moon
[This is a little outside of my normal listening.. and the lyrics alone don’t really do it justice.. you can find a video of it here, but here they are anyway… It’s a deep moody kind of song if you let it in and feel it. ]
I know you’re somewhere out there Somewhere far away I want you back I want you back My neighbors think [...]
Love Kills
So long since I’ve waited To live again You’ve brought my world to an end Love takes its victim and leaves its remains My broken heart has died in vain Tell me why have we forsaken the dreams we had The pain makes it so hard to understand You’re a lifetime ago but a memory away And I’ll love you [...]
Running Up That Hill
It doesn’t hurt me.
Do you want to feel how it feels?
Do you want to know, know that it doesn’t hurt me?
Do you want to hear about the deal that I’m making?
You, It’s you and me.
And if I only could,
I’d make a deal with God,
And I’d get him to swap our places,
Be running up that road,
Be running up that hi [...]
Like You
Stay low.
Soft, dark, and dreamless,
Far beneath my nightmares and loneliness.
I hate me,
For breathing without you.
I don’t want to feel anymore for you.
Grieving for you,
I’m not grieving for you.
Nothing real love can’t undo,
And though I may have lost my way,
All paths lead straight to you.
I long to be like you,
Lie col [...]
Everything Burns
[ANASTACIA]
She sits in her corner
Singing herself to sleep
Wrapped in all of the promises
That no one seems to keep
She no longer cries to herself,
No tears left to wash away
Just diaries of empty pages,
Feelings gone astray
But she will sing
[CHORUS: Ben Moody / Anastacia]
‘Till everything burns
While everyone screams
Burning their li [...]
Through Glass
I’m looking at you through the glass
Don’t know how much time has passed
Oh God it feels like forever
But no one ever tells you that forever feels like home
Sitting all alone inside your head
How do you feel, that is the question
But I forget you don’t expect an easy answer
When something like a soul becomes initialized
And [...]
All You Zombies
Holy Moses met the Pharaoh
Yeah, he tried to set him straight
Looked him in the eye
“Let my people go”
Holy Moses on the mountain
High above the golden calf
Went to get the Ten Commandments
Yeah, he’s just gonna break ‘em in half
All you zombies hide your faces
All you people in the street
All you sittin’ in high [...]
To the Moon and Back
She’s taking her time making up the reasons
To justify all the hurt inside
Guess she knows from the smiles and the look in their eyes
Everyone’s got a theory about the bitter one
They’re saying, “Mama never loved her much”
And, “Daddy never keeps in touch
That’s why she shies away from human affection [...]
You’ve Got Another Thing Comin&...
One life I’m gonna live it up
I’m takin’ flight I said I’ll never get enough
Stand tall I’m young and kinda proud
I’m on top as long as the music’s loud
If you think I’ll sit around as the world goes by
You’re thinkin’ like a fool cause it’s a case of do or die
Out there is a f [...]
I’ll See You In My Dreams
Gone, the voice that used to fill the room is all but gone
An echo of a perfect love that ended wrong
Girl, we tried so hard when love was on our side
And yesterday will always be the reason why
You keep comin’, you keep comin’ back, you keep comin’ back for more
I’ll see you in my dreams
There we’ll be safe toni [...]
Hollow Years
He’s just a kind of man
You hear about
Who leaves his family for
An easy out
They never said a word
He couldn’t take another day
Carry me to the shoreline
Bury me in the sand
Walk me across the water
And maybe you’ll understand
Once the stone
You’re crawling under
Is lifted
Off your shoulders
Once you head disapears
Th [...]
Thoughtless
All of my hate cannot be found
I will not be drowned by your thoughtless scheming
So you can try to tear me down
Beat me to the ground I will see you screaming
Thumbing through the pages of my fantasies
Pushing all the mercy down, down, down
I wanna see you try to take a swing at me
Come on, gonna put you on the ground, ground, ground
Why are [...]
A Change of Seasons
[I. The Crimson Sunrise]
[Instrumental]
[II. Innocence]
I remember a time
My frail, virgin mind
Watched the crimson sunrise
Imagined what it might find
Life was filled with wonder
I felt the warm wind blow
I must explore the boundaries
Transcend the depth of winter’s snow
Innocence caressing me
I never felt so young before
There was so [...]
New York Minute
Harry got up
Dressed all in black
Went down to the station
And he never came back
They found his clothing
Scattered somewhere down the track
And he won’t be down on wall street
In the morning
He had a home
The love of a girl
But men get lost sometimes
As years unfurl
One day he crossed some line
And he was too much in this world
But I g [...]
Nobody’s Hero
I knew he was different in his sexuality
I went to his parties as a straight minority
It never seemed a threat to my masculinity
He only introduced me to a wider reality
As the years went by, we drifted apart
When I heard that he was gone
I felt a shadow cross my heart
But he’s nobody’s hero
Saves a drowning child
Cures a wasting [...]
Resist
I can learn to resist
Anything but temptation
I can learn to coexist
With anything but pain
I can learn to compromise
Anything but my desires
I can learn to get along
With all the things I can’t explain
I can learn to resist
Anything but frustration
I can learn to persist
With anything but aiming low
I can learn to close my eyes
To anyt [...]
One Light Burning
All alone in the dark
No walls no windows
Trying hard to define
Heaven from hell
Standing out in the rain
With just one shadow
Nothing to see or believe
Beyond myself
See my life going by
Each moment I’m alive
I keep reaching out, holding on, hoping
Somewhere in my life
There’s one light burning
I feel it like my heart beating ins [...]
Landing in London
I woke up today in London
As the plane was touching down
And all I could think about was Monday
Maybe I’d be back around
If this keeps me way much longer
I don’t know what I would do
You got to understand it’s a hard life
That I’m going through
And when the night falls around me
And I don’t think I’ll make [...]
Missing
whisper “huhuhuhuhuhu…”
Please, please forgive me
But I won’t be home again
Maybe some day you’ll look up
And barely conscious you’ll say to no one
Isn’t something missing?
You won’t cry for my absence I know
You forgot me long ago
Am I that unimportant?
Am I so insignificant?
isn’t someon [...]
Dream of the Dolphin
In every colour there’s the light.
In every stone sleeps a crystal.
Remember the Shaman, when he used to say:
Man is the dream of the dolphin.
