Ceremony - New Order


This is why events unnerve me,
They find it all, a different story,
Notice whom for wheels are turning,
Turn again and turn towards this time,
All she ask's the strength to hold me,
Then again the same old story,
World will travel, oh so quickly,
Travel first and lean towards this time.

Oh, I'll break them down, no mercy shown,
Heaven knows, it's got to be this time,
Watching her, these things she said,
The times she cried,
Too frail to wake this time.

Oh I'll break them down, no mercy shown
Heaven knows, it's got to be this time,
Avenues all lined with trees,
Picture me and then you start watching,
Watching forever, forever,
Watching love grow, forever,
Letting me know, forever.
 
I'm currently listening to something very thought provoking

Britney Spears - Work Bitch


You want a hot body? You want a Bugatti?
You want a Maserati? You better work bitch
You want a Lamborghini? Sip martinis?
Look hot in a bikini? You better work bitch
You wanna live fancy? Live in a big mansion?
Party in France?
You better work bitch, you better work bitch
You better work bitch, you better work bitch
Now get to work bitch!
Now get to work bitch!

[Verse 1]
Bring it on, ring the alarm
Don't stop now, just be the champion
Work it hard, like it's your profession
Watch out now, cause here it comes

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Here comes the smasher, here comes the master
Here comes the big beat, big beat to blast ya
No time to quit now just time to get it now
Pick up what I'm layin down, pick up what I'm puttin down

[Chorus]
You want a hot body? You want a Bugatti?
You want a Maserati? You better work bitch
You want a Lamborghini? Sip martinis?
Look hot in a bikini? You better work bitch
You wanna live fancy? Live in a big mansion?
Party in France?
You better work bitch, you better work bitch
You better work bitch, you better work bitch
Now get to work bitch!
Now get to work bitch!

[Verse 2]
Break it up, break it down
See me comin' you can hear my sound
Tell somebody in your town
Spread the word, spread the word

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Go call the police, go call the governor
I bring the treble, don't mean to trouble ya'
I make the bubble up, call me the bubbler
I am the bad bitch, the bitch that you're lovin up

[Bridge]
Hold your head high, fingers to the sky
They gon' try and try ya', but they can't deny ya'
Keep it moving higher, and higher
Keep it moving higher, and higher
So hold your head high, fingers to the sky
Now they don't believe ya', but they gonna need ya'
Keep it moving higher and higher
Keep it moving higher and higher and higher

[Outro]
Work, work, work, work
Work, work, work, work
Work, work, work, work
Work, work, work, work
Work it out, work it out, work it out, work it out
Work it out, work it out, work it out, work it out
Work it out, work it out, work it out, work it out
Work it out, work it out
You better work bitch
You better work bitch
 
Hang the Pope by Nuclear Assault

Hang the Pope hang the Pope hang the Pope
Hang the Pope hang the Pope hang the Pope
Hang him with a fucking rope
Let's go to the Vatican, get him out of bed
Put the noose around his neck and hang him till he's dead
Hang the Pope hang the Pope hang the Pope
Hang the Pope hang the Pope hang the Pope
Hang him with a fucking rope
Let's go to the Vatican, get him out of bed
Put the noose around his neck and hang him till he's fucking dead
 
Listening my regular stuff. I guess this song kinda describes my feelings right now:

Don't Fall Asleep (Horror Part 2) - Swallow The Sun

[Verse 1]

Don't fall asleep
To the weeping of the birds
Don't fall asleep
In this room of the fallen

Don't fall asleep
To the breathing of the walls
Don't fall asleep
In this room of loss

[Verse 2]
Don't fall asleep
In the arms of dead air
Don't fall asleep
In this symphony of the damned

[Chorus]
"Time stands still in this chamber of pain
The clock stops and the horror comes
The children cry and weep
In this room of the unforgiven

Lie down because you'll never leave
Lie down because you'll never leave
Lie down because you'll never leave
Lie down, but don't fall asleep
Lie down, but don't fall asleep"


[Verse 3]
Don't fall asleep
To the weeping of the birds
Don't fall asleep
In this room of the fallen

Don't fall asleep
To the breathing of the walls
Don't fall asleep
In this room of loss

[Chorus]
"Time stands still in this chamber of pain
The clock stops and the horror comes
The children cry and weep
In this room of the unforgiven

Lie down because you'll never leave
Lie down because you'll never leave
Lie down because you'll never leave
Lie down, but don't fall asleep"


[Interlude]
The signs show slowly with the dark
They glow brighter as the shadows grow deeper
Blood marks on the walls and the ceiling
And on the floor and the doors
Oh how they flow!

[Outro]
Little voices like the whining of the birds
As the closet door opens
I still can hear them screaming
And the shape… Is it me on the piano?
Playing the symphony of the damned
Playing the symphony of the damned
 
Black Sabbath's Into the Void:

Rocket engines burning fuel so fast
Up into the night sky they blast
Through the universe the engines whine
Could it be the end of man and time?
Back on Earth the flame of life burns low
Everywhere is misery and woe
Pollution kills the air, the land and sea
Man prepares to meet his destiny, yeah

Rocket engines burning fuel so fast
Up into the black sky so vast
Burning metal through the atmosphere
Earth remains in worry, hate and fear
With the hateful battles raging on
Rockets flying to the glowing sun
Through the empires of eternal void
Freedom from the final suicide, yeah

Freedom fighters sent out to the sun
Escape from brainwashed minds and pollution
Leave the earth to all its sin and hate
Find another world where freedom waits, yeah

Past the stars in fields of ancient void
Through the shields of darkness where they find
Love upon a land a world unknown
Where the sons of freedom make their home
Leave the Earth to Satan and his slaves
Leave them to their future in the grave
Make a home where love is there to stay
Peace and happiness in every day, yeah

In My Life - The Beatles

There are places I'll remember
All my life though some have changed
Some forever not for better
Some have gone and some remain

All these places had their moments
With lovers and friends I still can recall
Some are dead and some are living
In my life I've loved them all

But of all these friends and lovers
There is no one compares with you
And these memories lose their meaning
When I think of love as something new

Though I know I'll never lose affection
For people and things that went before
I know I'll often stop and think about them
In my life I love you more

Though I know I'll never lose affection
For people and things that went before
I know I'll often stop and think about them
In my life I love you more

In my life I love you more
 
I like big butts and I can not lie
You other brothers can't deny
That when a girl walks in with an itty bitty waist
And a round thing in your face
You get sprung, want to pull up tough
'Cause you notice that butt was stuffed
Deep in the jeans she's wearing
I'm hooked and I can't stop staring
Oh baby, I want to get wit'cha
And take your picture
My homeboys tried to warn me
But with that butt you got makes (me so horny)
Ooh, Rump-o'-smooth-skin
You say you want to get in my Benz?
Well, use me, use me
'Cause you ain't that average groupie
I've seen her dancin'
To hell with romancin'
She's sweat, wet,
Got it goin' like a turbo 'Vette
I'm tired of magazines
Sayin' flat butts are the thing
Take the average black man and ask him that
She gotta pack much back
So, fellas (yeah) Fellas (yeah)
Has your girlfriend got the butt? (hell yeah)
Tell 'em to shake it (shake it) shake it (shake it)
Shake that healthy butt
Baby got back (L.A. fits with the Oakland booty)

Dance too much booty in the pants.
 
Joanna Newsom - Time as a Symptom of Love.
(This whole album is fucking poetry, but I think this song is Joanna at her lyrical best. The album questions what belongs to humanity outside of time, and the whole album is a collection of meditations of cycles of love and violence across time, and this song presses that before falling apart into short fragmented sections, and then ends the song with "Tran," and the first lyric of the first song is "sending the scouts over," completing the infinite cycle. This album gets me so damn hot and bothered.)

Time passed hard
And the task was the hardest thing she'd ever do
But she forgot
The moment she saw you

So it would seem to be true
When cruel birth debases, we forget
When cruel death debases
We believe it erases all the rest
that precedes

But stand brave, life-liver
Bleeding out your days
In the river of time
Stand brave
Time moves both ways

In the nullifying, defeating, negating, repeating
Joy of life
The nullifying, defeating, negating, repeating
Joy of life

The moment of your greatest joy sustains
Not axe nor hammer
Tumor, tremor
Can take it away, and it remains
It remains

And it pains me to say, I was wrong
Love is not a symptom of time
Time is just a symptom of love

(And the nullifying, defeating, negating, repeating
Joy of life
The nullifying, defeating, negating, repeating
Joy of life)

Hardly seen, hardly felt
Deep down where your fight is waiting
Down 'till the light in your eyes is fading
Joy of life
Where I know that you can yield, when it comes down to it
Bow like the field when the combs through it
Joy of life
And every little gust that chances through
Will dance in the dust of me and you
With joy of life
And in our perfect secret-keeping
One ear of corn
In silent, reaping
Joy of life

Joy
Again, around–a pause, a sound–a song
A way a lone a last a loved a long
A cave, a grave, a day: arise, ascend
(Areion, Rharian, go free and graze
Amen)

A shore, a tide, unmoored–a sight, abroad
A dawn, unmarked, undone, undarked (a god)
No time, no flock, no chime, no clock, no end
White star, white ship, nightjar, transmit, transcend

White star, white ship–nightjar, transmit, transcend
White star, white ship–nightjar, transmit, transcend
White star, white ship–nightjar, transmit, trans-

Black Sabbath - Neon Knights


Oh no, here it comes again
Can't remember when we came so close to love before

Hold on, good things never last
Nothing's in the past, it always seems to come again

Again and again, again and again, again oh


Cry out, to legions of the brave
Time again to save us from the jackals of the street
Ride out, protectors of the realm
Captain's at the helm, sail across the sea of lights

Circles and rings, dragons and kings
Weaving a charm and a spell
Blessed by the night, holy and bright
Called by the toll of the bell

Bloodied angels fast descending
Moving on a never-bending light
Phantom figures free forever
Out of shadows, shining ever-bright

Neon Knights
Neon Knights
All right

[instrumental break]

Cry out, to legions of the brave
Time again to save us from the jackals of the street
Ride out, protectors of the realm
Captain's at the helm, sail across the sea of lights
Again and again, again and again and again
Neon Knights
Neon Knights
Neon Knights
All right

Ice Cube-Tomorrow

All hail to the West coast, I am the grand wizard
The West coast warlord, and the future is today
Cause tomorrow, that shit never come
I worry 'bout today and this urban decay
I worry 'bout hip-hop, when did it flip-flop
Get whack, and turn into gridlock
I don't know is it a government plot?
I don't give a fuck whether you love it or not
That's all we got and if you throw it away
You dumb as OJ, off a forty
In your Izod, this the rap God
What you goin' put up, in your iPod?
Downloader, what you go/in' do
When your favorite MC, got to sue you
Cause he got to eat ain't nothin' taboo
Get your ass beat by Erykah Badu
Cause you wanna steal this good music
Put me out of business, now you lose it
Tomorrow, don't you worry about tomorrow (that shit never come)
This is very hard to swallow
Keep your hand up on that throttle
Don't you worry 'bout tomorrow
Tomorrow, I'ma handle my business
But today, I'ma drink this liquor
Cause tomorrow, I might be a little quicker
But today, I'm just the same old nigga
You know that shit is still a day away
Do yo' thing baby put your life on layaway
Cause everybody is Nostradamus
Boy don't you know that tomorrow ain't promised?
To all the lil' mamas
Don't do a nigga, like Isiah Thomas
If you a bitch, please be honest
Actin' like a hoe you're not an an-gel
While you're, daydreaming 'bout your future
Motherfucker come around the corner and shoot you
Don't you, get stuck in neutral
Put your shit in drive, while you still alive cause
Tomorrow, don't you worry about tomorrow (that shit never come)
This is very hard to swallow
Keep your hand up on that throttle
Don't you worry 'bout tomorrow
Tomorrow! That shit never come
I know it sounds strange but today is never done
I'm up in the Range when the clock strikes 1
While y'all countin' sheep, I'm countin' Benjamins
Up on my feet at the break of the sun
President of the Gangster Na-tion
We don't go to war, we go to the store
We rob from the rich, and give to the poor
Hip-Hop, oh what a bore
Lettin college motherfuckers run the front door
(Fuck that!) Let's take it back to the streets
Don't let Viacom, dictate the heat
The nerve of them, I never heard of dem
Askin' me about, my urban spins
And if I got about, a thousand of them
I'm a crate MC, accordin' to them
Fuck that!
Tomorrow, don't you worry about tomorrow (that shit never come)
This is very hard to swallow
Keep your hand up on that throttle
Don't you worry 'bout tomorrow
Tomorrow, don't you worry about tomorrow (that shit never come)
This is very hard to swallow
Keep your hand up on that throttle
Don't you worry 'bout tomorrow
All hail to the West coast, I am the grand wizard
The West coast warlord, the future is today
Get your grind on man, get your grind on man, get your grind on

Tomorrow isn't promised. All we've got is a series of todays. If you're going to do something do it today.
 
Katatonia - Serein

In the morning
The battle for endurance has been lost
Sold my worth and dignity the same
I am shade and essence of corroding time

So pale next to my love
In every way, meaningless scar
Through the evening
Where our wisdom turns to rust
Fill the gap with lost integrity
I become the one you haven't seen for years

[Chorus]
Liberating rain, two shots and I need more
Adapt to the flow
A taste of the void, get back and focus again
More of the fire
It churns the blood, the waves of dependence
Await to be slain by memories of old
It churns the blood, the waves of dependence
Await to be slain by memories of old

In every way, meaningless scar
I become the one you haven't seen for years

[Chorus]
Liberating rain, two shots and I need more
Adapt to the flow
A taste of the void, get back and focus again
More of the fire
It churns the blood, the waves of dependence
Await to be slain by memories of old
It churns the blood, the waves of dependence
Await to be slain by memories of old
 
@RogueLynx has already won with his Sabbath worship. Doesn't hurt that Neon Knights and Into the Void are my favourite songs of the band, especially that slow Iommi riff in Void kills anything in its path!

Anyway...

I Don't Need Society by D.R.I.

Your number's up you have to go
The system says "I told you so"
Stocked in a train like a truckload of cattle
Sent off to slaughter in a useless battle
Thousands of us sent off to die
Never really knowing why
Fuck the system they can't have me
I don't need society!
I don't need society!
Before you know it you're in the corps
Grab your gear boy you're off to war
Stocked in a train like a truckload of cattle
Sent off to slaughter in a useless battle
Thousands of us sent off to die
Never really knowing why
Fuck the system they can't have me
I don't need society!
I don't need society!
You were…
You were an apple pie clone living at home
Never straying too far from your phone
Now son make it through enemy lines
You must hurry there's not much time
Made it sir. They're gonna drop the bomb
No time to evacuate, they'll call our moms
Fuck the system, they can't have me
I don't need society!
I don't need Society!

I listened to Fool On The Planet by The Pillows this morning and I just wanted to post the English translated lyrics here because they beautiful as hell.

The Pillows-Fool On The Planet

At the bottom of my grief, something glowing and gentle
Always came to wrap me in its light
You, weren't you gentle like that
That glow spreading over a peaceful landscape
I've surely walked there in a dream
You were there too

Today, outside my window a war plane
Drowns out the song of a bluebird
Flying with unsteady wings

Even if everyone has forgotten
I won't forget
Even if the world laughs
I won't doubt myself

I can't laugh, I can't come out of this deep misery
You and I crouched together, searching
For a way out of this ruined town
Although one hand broke free from that moment's dream
I've decided now
I will blame others no longer

When will that day come, when I solve the riddle of love
Even if its true form burns my heart
Will I still be able to seize it?

Even if the rain strikes
The flowers will keep their heads high
Even if I've lost everything
I won't lose you

Just like now
I want to convey my love
More deeply than anyone else
My song is your song

Even if everyone has forgotten
I won't forget
Even if the world laughs
I won't doubt myself

Even if this era hopes
I won't wash it away with my song
Even if everything changes
I won't change

My song is your song
