[death tribble]

In light of the coming holiday

 

We broke up, we broke up

We don't care if the school blows up

No more English, no more French

No more sitting on the old school bench

 

If the teacher interferes

Tie him up and box his ears

If the teacher wants a fight

Blow him up with dynamite

[Cancer]

 

The Bells of Hell go ting-a-ling-a-ling

For you but not for me:

For me the angels sing-a-ling-a-ling,

They've got the goods for me.

 

Oh! Death, where is thy sting-a-ling-a-ling?

Oh! Grave, thy victory?

The Bells of Hell go ting-a-ling-a-ling

For you but not for me.

[death tribble]

Baby's good to me, you know

She's happy as can be, you know

She said so

I'm in love with her and I feel fine

 

Baby says she's mine, you know

She tells me all the time, you know

She said so

I'm in love with her and I feel fine

 

I'm so glad that she's my little girl

She's so glad, she's telling all the world

 

That her baby buys her things, you know

He buys her diamond rings, you know

She said so

She's in love with me and I feel fine, mmm

 

Baby says she's mine, you know

She tells me all the time, you know

She said so

I'm in love with her and I feel fine

 

I'm so glad that she's my little girl

She's so glad, she's telling all the world

 

That her baby buys her things, you know

He buys her diamond rings, you know

She said so

She's in love with me and I feel fine

She's in love with me and I feel fine, mmm, mmm

Sunlight dances through the leaves
Soft winds stir the sighing trees
Lying in the warm grass
Feel the sun upon your face
Elven songs and endless nights
Sweet wine and soft relaxing lights
Time will never touch you
Here in this enchanted place

You feel there's something calling you
You're wanting to return
To where the misty mountains rise and friendly fires burn
A place you can escape the world
Where the dark lord cannot go
Peace of mind and sanctuary by loud water's flow

I've traveled now for many miles
It feels so good to see the smiles of
Friends who never left your mind
When you were far away
From the golden light of coming dawn
Till the twilight where the sun is gone
We treasure every season
And every passing day

We feel the coming of a new day
Darkness gives way to light a new way
Stop here for a while until the world
The world calls you away
Yet you know I've had the feeling
Standing with my senses reeling
This is the place to grow old 'til
I reach my final day.

You feel there's something calling you
You're wanting to return
To where the misty mountains rise and friendly fires burn
A place you can escape the world
Where the dark lord cannot go
Peace of mind and sanctuary by loud water's flow

[death tribble]

You know I'm not one to break promises,

I don't want to hurt you but I need to breathe.

At the end of it all, you're still my best friend,

But there's something inside that I need to release.

Which way is right, which way is wrong,

How do I say that I need to move on ?

You know we're heading separate ways.

 

And it feels like I am just too close to love you,

There's nothing I can really say.

I can't lie no more, I can't hide no more,

Got to be true to myself.

And it feels like I am just too close to love you,

So I'll be on my way.

 

You've given me more than I can return,

Yet there's oh so much that you deserve.

There's nothing to say, nothing to do.

I've nothing to give,

I must live without you.

You know we're heading separate ways.

 

And it feels like I am just too close to love you,

There's nothing I can really say.

I can't lie no more, I can't hide no more,

Got to be true to myself.

And it feels like I am just too close to love you,

So I'll be on my way.

 

So I'll be on my way.

 

And it feels like I am just too close to love you,

There's nothing that I can really say.

I can lie no more, I can hide no more,

Got to be true to myself.

And it feels like I am just too close to love you,

So I'll be on my way.

 

So I'll be on my way.

So I'll be on my way.

[Greywind]

I turn my back to the wind
To catch my breath,
Before I start off again
Driven on,
Without a moment to spend
To pass an evening
With a drink and a friend

I let my skin get too thin
I'd like to pause,
No matter what I pretend
Like some pilgrim
Who learns to transcend
Learns to live
As if each step was the end

Time stand still
I'm not looking back
But I want to look around me now
Time stands still
See more of the people
And the places that surround me now

Time stands still

Freeze this moment
A little bit longer
Make each sensation
A little bit stronger

Experience slips away
Experience slips away

Time stands still

I turn my face to the sun
Close my eyes,
Let my defenses down
All those wounds
That I can't get unwound

I let my past go too fast
No time to pause
If I could slow it all down
Like some captain,
Whose ship runs aground
I can wait until the tide comes around

Time stand still
I'm not looking back
But I want to look around me now
Time stands still
See more of the people
And the places that surround me now

Freeze this moment
A little bit longer
Make each sensation
A little bit stronger

Make each impression
A little bit stronger
Freeze this motion
A little bit longer

The innocence slips away
The innocence slips away

Time stands still
Time stands still

I'm not looking back
But I want to look around me now
See more of the people
And the places that surround me now

Time stands still

Summer's going fast
Nights growing colder
Children growing up
Old friends growing older

Freeze this moment
A little bit longer
Make each sensation
A little bit stronger

Experience slips away
Experience slips away
The innocence slips away

[death tribble]

Oh, she may be weary

Young girls they do get weary

Wearing that same old shaggy dress, yeah yeah

But when she gets weary

Try a little tenderness, yeah yeah

 

You know she's waiting

Just anticipating

For things that she'll never, never, never, never possess, yeah yeah

But while she's there waiting, without them

Try a little tenderness (that's all you gotta do)

 

It's not just sentimental, no, no, no

She has her grief and care, yeah yeah yeah

But the soft words, they are spoke so gentle, yeah

It makes it easier, easier to bear, yeah

 

You won't regret it, no, no

Some girls they don't forget it

Love is their only happiness, yeah

But it's all so easy

All you gotta do is try, try a little tenderness, yeah

All you gotta do is, man, hold her where you want her

 

Squeeze her, don't tease her, never leave her

Get to her, try, try

Just try a little tenderness, ooh yeah yeah yeah

You got to know how to love her, man, you'll be surprised, man

You've got to squeeze her, don't tease her, never leave

You've got to hold her and rub her softly

Try a little tenderness, ooh yeah yeah yeah

You've got to rub her gentle man, all you gotta do, no no 

You've got to love her, squeeze her, don't tease her

Gotta try nah nah nah, try

Try a little tenderness, yeah, watch her groove

You've gotta to know what to do, man

Take this advice

[death tribble]

I don't know why I love you like I do

After all these changes you put me through

You stole my money and my cigarettes

And I haven't seen hide nor hair of you yet

 

I wanna know

Won't you tell me

Am I in love to stay ?

Hey hey

 

Take me to the river

And wash me down

Won't you cleanse my soul

Put my feet on the ground

 

I don't know why she treated me so bad

Look at all those things that we could have had

Love is a notion that I can't forget

My sweet sixteen I will never regret

 

I wanna know

Won't you tell me

Am I in love to stay ?

Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

 

Take me to the river

And wash me down

Won't you cleanse my soul

Put my feet on the ground

 

Hold me, love me, please me, tease me

Till I can't, till I can't take no more

Take me to the river

 

I don't know why I love you like I do

After all these changes you put me through

The sixteen candles burning on my wall

Turning me into the biggest fool of them all

 

I wanna know

Oh won't you tell me

Am I in love to stay ?

 

Take me to the river

And wash me down

Won't you cleanse my soul

Put my feet on the ground

 

One more time !

 

Take me to the river

And wash me down

Won't you cleanse my soul

Put my feet on the ground

Take me to the river

[death tribble]

Oh, misty eye of the mountain below

Keep careful watch of my brothers' souls

And should the sky be filled with fire and smoke

Keep watching over Durin's sons

 

If this is to end in fire

Then we should all burn together

Watch the flames climb high into the night

 

Calling out father oh

Stand by and we will

Watch the flames burn auburn on

The mountain side

 

And if we should die tonight

Then we should all die together

Raise a glass of wine for the last time

 

Calling out father oh

Prepare as we will

Watch the flames burn auburn on

The mountain side

Desolation comes upon the sky

 

Now I see fire

Inside the mountain

I see fire

Burning the trees

And I see fire

Hollowing souls

I see fire

Blood in the breeze

And I hope that you remember me

 

Oh, should my people fall

Then surely I'll do the same

Confined in mountain halls

We got too close to the flame

 

Calling out father oh

Hold fast and we will

Watch the flames burn auburn on

The mountain side

Desolation comes upon the sky

 

Now I see fire

Inside the mountain

I see fire

Burning the trees

I see fire

Hollowing souls

I see fire

Blood in the breeze

And I hope that you remember me

 

And if the night is burning

I will cover my eyes

For if the dark returns

Then my brothers will die

And as the sky is falling down

It crashed into this lonely town

And with that shadow upon the ground

I hear my people screaming out

 

Now I see fire

Inside the mountains

I see fire

Burning the trees

I see fire

Hollowing souls

I see fire

Blood in the breeze

 

I see fire (oh you know I saw a city burning out) (fire)

And I see fire (feel the heat upon my skin, yeah) (fire)

And I see fire (uh-uh-uh-uh) (fire)

And I see fire burn auburn on the mountain side

[death tribble]

Said to the man at the railroad station

"I want a ticket, just for one."

He said, "Well, if you insist. Where you wanna go, Miss ?"

 

Oh, destination anywhere

East or west, I don't care

You see my baby don't love me no more

This old world ain't got no back door

 

He looked at me with a funny face and said

"Are you sure you wanna go just anyplace ?"

I said, "If you ever loved someone, the way I loved that man

Surely Mr. ticket agent, you should understand."

 

Destination anywhere

East or west, I don't care

You see my baby don't want me no more

This old world ain't got no back door

 

'Cause every day, it would swing both ways

And we'd go on back to happy yesterdays

When I loved him tenderly

And all he needed was me

 

As I stepped through the window of the train

I thought I heard my baby call my name

But it was just the conductor saying

"Which stop would you prefer ?"

 

Oh, destination anywhere

East or west, I don't care

You see my baby don't love me no more

This old world ain't got no back door

 

Destination anywhere

East or west, I don't care

Destination anywhere

East or west, I don't care

Destination anywhere

East or west, I don't care

Destination anywhere

East or west, I don't care

Mustang Sally, think you better slow your mustang down.

You been running all over the town now.

Oh! I guess I'll have to put your flat feet on the ground.

All you want to do is ride around Sally, ride, Sally, ride.

All you want to do is ride around Sally, ride, Sally, ride.

I'm gonna wait 'til the midnight hour

That's when my love comes tumbling down

I'm gonna wait 'til the midnight hour

When there's no one else around

 

I'm gonna take you girl and hold you

And do all things I told you in the midnight hour

Yes I am, yes I am

One more thing I just wanna say right here

 

I'm gonna wait till the stars come out

And see them twinkle in your eyes

You know what, I'm gonna hold you in my arms

Just, you and I, oh yeah in the midnight hour

Oh baby in the midnight hour

[Greywind]

Nobody on the road
Nobody on the beach
I feel it in the air
The summer's out of reach
Empty lake, empty streets
The sun goes down alone
I'm driving by your house
Though I know you're not home

But I can see you-
Your brown skin shinin' in the sun
You got your hair combed back and your sunglasses on, baby
And I can tell you my love for you will still be strong
After the boys of summer have gone

I never will forget those nights
I wonder if it was a dream
Remember how you made me crazy?
Remember how I made you scream
Now I don't understand what happened to our love
But babe, I'm gonna get you back
I'm gonna show you what I'm made of

I can see you-
Your brown skin shinin' in the sun
I see you walking real slow and you're smilin' at everyone
I can tell you my love for you will still be strong
After the boys of summer have gone

Out on the road today, I saw a DEADHEAD sticker on a Cadillac
A little voice inside my head said, "Don't look back. You can never look back"
I thought I knew what love was
What did I know?
Those days are gone forever
I should just let them go but-

I can see you-
Your brown skin shinin' in the sun
You got that top pulled down and that radio on, baby
And I can tell you my love for you will still be strong
After the boys of summer have gone

I can see you-
Your brown skin shinin' in the sun
You got that hair slicked back and those Wayfarers on, baby
I can tell you my love for you will still be strong
After the boys of summer have gone

Big, fat and juicy, what can her attraction be ? (Eee, eee)

Looks just like a pudding, that's why she appeals to me, eee-eee-eee

Here in my pocket
I got the Story Of The Blues
Try to believe me
'Cause it could be front page news
I say I live with it like it hasn't happened yet
I keep thinking of everyone, how I'm the one
The one they're trying to get
To tell the Story Of The Blues

First they take your pride
Turn it all inside
And then you realize
You've got nothing left to lose

So you try to stop
Try to get back up
And then you realize
You're telling the Story Of The Blues

Feeling browbeaten
Day after day
I think it's over
But I just can't get away

You say forget it
Well don't jump the gun
You're laughing this time
Next time you might be the one
To tell the Story Of The Blues

 

First they take your pride
Turn it all inside
And then you realize
You've got nothing left to lose

So you try to stop
Try to get back up
And then you realize
You're telling the Story Of The Blues

So you try to stop
Try to get back up
And then you realize
You're telling the Story Of The Blues

What they gonna say 'bout me
When they tell the Story Of The Blues

 

[Enforcer84]

When the mad Sun's mad day's 

Tirade is through

Evening comes to seduce you

wearing diamonds on her dress

of velvet blue

[death tribble]

Made a meal and threw it up on Sunday

I've got a lot of things to learn

Said I would and I'll be leaving one day

Before my heart starts to burn.

 

So what's the matter with you ?

Sing me something new.

Don't you know

The cold and wind and rain don't know

They only seem to come and go away

 

Times are hard when things have got no meaning

I've found a key upon the floor

Maybe you and I will not believe in the things we find behind the door

 

So what's the matter with you ?

Sing me something new.

Don't you know

The cold and wind and rain don't know

They only seem to come and go away

 

Stand by me

Nobody knows the way it's gonna be

Stand by me

Nobody knows the way it's gonna be

Stand by me

Nobody knows the way it's gonna be

Stand by me

Nobody knows, yeah, nobody knows the way it's gonna be

 

If you're leaving will you take me with you

I'm tired of talking on my phone

There is one thing I can never give you

My heart will never be your home

 

So what's the matter with you ?

Sing me something new.

Don't you know

The cold and wind and rain don't know

They only seem to come and go away

 

Stand by me

Nobody knows the way it's gonna be

Stand by me

Nobody knows the way it's gonna be

Stand by me

Nobody knows the way it's gonna be

Stand by me

Nobody knows, yeah, nobody knows the way it's gonna be

The way it's gonna be, yeah

 

Maybe I can see, yeah.

Don't you know

The cold and wind and rain don't know

They only seem to come and go away

 

Hey, hey

 

Stand by me

Nobody knows the way it's gonna be

Stand by me

Nobody knows the way it's gonna be

Stand by me

Nobody knows the way it's gonna be

Stand by me

Nobody knows. Yeah, God only knows the way it's gonna be

[Pariah]

Well I've been sitting here all night long

And I've been singing to every song

I ain't asked for nothing yet

Now all I'm asking is one request

 

Turn it up

Turn it up

Draw a crowd I could crawl into

You don't know what I've been through

Turn it up, I don't want to hear what I'm thinking tonight

 

I let my woman move in last fall

Now she don't ever let me touch her at all

She's been picking at me all day

I came here to get out of her way

 

Turn it up

Turn it up

I think that woman might of lost her mind

Someday I'm I'm afraid she's gonna cross the line

Turn it up, I don't wanna hear what I'm thinking tonight

 

Well I've been walking on eggshells baby

I've been losing my mind

She's been driving me to drinking lately

I'm drinking all the time

 

Well I've been fighting these angry mobs

Holding down a couple dead-end jobs

Well they can sure keep me down alright

They can't keep me from rocking tonight

 

Turn it up, boy

Turn it up

Draw a crowd I can crawl into

I'm afraid of what I might do

Turn it up, I don't wanna hear what I'm thinking tonight

[Pariah]

This was a triumph

I'm making a note here: Huge success

It's hard to overstate my satisfaction

 

Aperture Science

We do what we must, because we can

For the good of all of us

Except the one who are dead

 

But there's no sense crying over every mistake

You just keep on trying 'til you run out of cake

And the science gets done

And you make a neat gun

For the people who are still alive

 

I'm not even angry

I'm being so sincere right now

Even though you broke my heart and killed me

 

And tore me to pieces

And threw every piece into a fire

As they burned, it hurt because I was so happy for you

 

Now these points of data make a beautiful line

And we're out of beta, we're releasing on time

So I'm glad I got burned

Think of all the things we learned

For the people who are still alive

 

Go ahead and leave me

I think I prefer to stay inside

Maybe you'll find someone else to help you

 

Maybe Black Mesa

That was a joke -- Ha ha, fat chance

Anyway, this cake is great

It's so delicious and moist

 

Look at me, still talking when there's science to do

When I look out there, it makes me glad I'm not you

I've experiments to run

There is research to be done

On the people who are still alive

 

Believe me, I am still alive

I'm doing science and I'm still alive

I feel fantastic and I'm still alive

While you're dying, I'll be still alive

And when you're dead I will be still alive

Still alive

Still alive

Still alive

[death tribble]

Step off the train all alone at dawn

Back into the hole where I was born

The sun in the sky never raised an eye to me

The blood on the trax and must be mine

The fool on the hill and I feel fine

Don't look back cos you know what you might see 

 

Look into the wall of my mind's eye

I think I know, but I don't know why

The questions are the answers you might need

Coming in a mess going out in style

I ain't good-looking but I'm someone's child

No-one can give me the air that's mine to breathe 

 

I met my maker

I made him cry

And on my shoulder he asked me why

His people won't fly through the storm

I said "Listen up man, they don't even know you're born" 

 

All my people right here, right now

D'You Know What I Mean ?

All my people right here, right now

D'You Know What I Mean ?

All my people right here, right now

D'You Know What I Mean ?

Yeah, yeah 

 

I don't really care for what you believe

So open up your fist or you won't receive

The thoughts and the words of every man you'll need

Get up off the floor and believe in life

No-one's ever gonna ever ask you twice

Get on the bus and bring it on home to me

[death tribble]

She lives in this house over there

Has her world outside it

Scrabbles in the earth with her fingers and her mouth

She's five years old

 

Threads worms on a string

Keeps spiders in her pocket

Collects fly wings in a jar

Scrubs horse flies

And pinches them on a line

Ohhh...!

 

She has one friend, he lives next door

They're listening to the weather

He knows how many freckles she's got

She scratches his beard

 

She's painting huge books

And glues them together

They saw a big raven

It glided down the sky

She touched it

Ohh...!

 

Today is her birthday

They're smoking cigars

He's got a chain of flowers

And sews a bird in her knickers

Ohhh...!

 

They're smoking cigars

They lie in the bathtub

A chain of flowers

[Greywind]

Sprawling on the fringes of the city
In geometric order
An insulated border
In between the bright lights
And the far unlit unknown

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

In the high school halls
In the shopping malls
Conform or be cast out

In the basement bars
In the backs of cars
Be cool or be cast out
Any escape might help to smooth
The unattractive truth
But the suburbs have no charms to soothe
The restless dreams of youth

Drawn like moths we drift into the city
The timeless old attraction
Cruising for the action
Lit up like a firefly
Just to feel the living night

Some will sell their dreams for small desires
Or lose the race to rats
Get caught in ticking traps
And start to dream of somewhere
To relax their restless flight
Somewhere out of a memory
Of lighted streets on quiet nights

In the high school halls
In the shopping malls
Conform or be cast out

In the basement bars
In the backs of cars
Be cool or be cast out
Any escape might help to smooth
The unattractive truth
But the suburbs have no charms to soothe
The restless dreams of youth

Deus does not exit

But if he does, he lives up above me

In the fattest largest cloud up there

He's whiter than white and cleaner than clean

He wants to reach me

 

Deus does not exist

But if he does I always notice him

Getting ready in his airy room

He's picking his gloves so gently off

He wants to touch me

 

I?m walking humbly down a tiny street

Pulling my collar it gets bigger, ooh

 

I once met him

It really surprised me

He put me in a bath tub

Made me squeeky clean

Really clean

 

To create a universe

You must taste

The forbidden fruit

 

He said, "Hi", I said, "Hi

I was still clean

 

Deus does not exist

But if he does he'd want

To get down from that cloud

First marzipan fingers

 

Then marble hands

More silent than silence

And slower than slow

Diving towards me

 

My collar is huge room for two hands

They start at the chest and move slowly down

 

I thought I had seen everything

He wasn't white and fluffy

He just had side burns

He just had side burns and a quiff

 

But he said, "Hi", I said, "Hi"

I was still clean

I was squeeky clean

I was surprised

Just as you would be

 

Deus, Deus

Deus, Deus

 

Deus, Deus

He does not exist

 

Deus, Deus

He does not exist

 

Deus, Deus

He does not exist
