they tell us that
we lost our tails
evolving up
from little snails
i say it's all
just wind in sails
are we not men?
we are DEVO!

You're the cutest of the Scoobies
with your lips as red as rubies
and your firm yet supple...tight embrace!

To resist is to peas in the wind, anyone who does will end up smelling
Knowing this why do I defy
Cuz my inner voice is yelling
There is a fist pressing against, anyone who thinks something compelling
Our intuit we're taught to deny
And our soul we're told is for selling
Get out from under them
Resist and multiply
Get out from under precipice
And see the sky
Get out from under them
Resist, unlearn, defy
Get out from under precipice
And see the sky

Incubus lyrics speak to me for some reason.

Oldies but goodies. I think these might be my top 3 favorite albums of all time.

Fiona Apple - Tidal, Slow Like Honey:
But my big secret
Gonna hover over your life
Gonna keep you reaching
When I'm gone like yesterday
When I'm high like heaven
When I'm strong like music
'Cause I'm slow like honey, and
Heavy with mood

Tori Amos - Little Earthquakes, Precious Things:
So you can made me come
That doesn't make you Jesus

Sarah McLachlan - Surfacing, Do What You Have to Do:
I'm ever swiftly moving
trying to escape this desire
the yearning to be near you

i remember before we met
i remember sitting next to you
and i remember pretending i wasn't looking

i sang this song in my high school talent show when i was in ninth grade. the audience didn't seem to enjoy it as much as you and i do.

That's badass! I'm gonna assume that you didn't have approval for that prior to singing it. Or if you did, then whomever approved it didn't do their research!

it was my audition piece! and there's no way it slipped by them--we rehearsed everything for months beforehand, because members of the school band played all of the music live during the two performances (one at night, one during school hours for the students). but no one ever commented on it. they were progressive? i really don't know how it happened.

so i'll walk the plank
and i'll jump with a smile
if i'm gonna go down
i'm gonna do it with style
and you won't see me surrender
you won't hear me confess
'cuz you've left me with nothing
but i've worked with less

Quote:

Twas off some Carribbean shore while on an epic quest
We came across a strange device
A mystic portal into another time
Where vikings ruled the land and sea
Such mighty treasure they did hold
We killed them all to steal their gold!

You put your faith in Odin and Thor
We put ours in cannons and whores
Your viking gods won't save you now
When pirates strike from the starboard bow

Back through time
To fight the viking foe
Back through time
Where our voyage must now go
Six hundred years into the past
Our destiny is here at last
For infamy and plunder we will ride

Their ships were powerless against our cannonfire
We took no prisoners that day. Yarrr.
The vikings prayed for mercy as we cut their throats
But their worthless gods did not hear their cries

WOOO ALESTORM. Best band.

First lyrics that came to mind were:
♪
Ain't got no regrets
And I ain't losin' track
Of which way I'm going
Ain't gonna double back no

Don't want no misplay
Put on no display
An angel? no!
But I know my way, oh yeah, oh...

I used follow
Yeah, that's true
But my following days are over
Now I just gotta follow through

Midnight Blue - Lou Gramm

"Life is a waterfall,
We're one in the river,
And one again after the fall."
System of a Down, "Aerials"

And more Mastodon, because:
"I flew beyond the sun before it was time
Burning all the gold that held me inside my shell
Waiting for you to pull me back in
I almost had the world in my sight"
"Oblivion"

What are the best song lines you know? What makes you love life? Or hate life, but eloquently.

It's a bitter sweet thing and a kind of recent discovery:

"But what a feeling chasing the sun,
Living my life like it's shot from a gun,
Laughing a little bit more with every mile,
Oh what a freedom racing the wind,
Dieing to know what's around the next bend,
And smiling as I watch the years roll by,
I'm learning how to take it day by day on my highway,"

On my Highway -Jason Aldean
