Poem: On Headlines Today, Or Above Lines Anyway



Anna Nicole Smith is dead
she was blonde with a big head
and her appetite was great too

Her pink furniture and all that stuff
she was such a hot muff I Think
I loved her, that silly bitch

I was devastated, I was shocked
I will forget her but not her show

She had lots of things that others just
have to learn to grow

http://www.annanicole.com/

Anna, you were a queen.
but I never liked you, just your dogs
you had a great life, you were so lucky
Now you're dead and less blond

Go for you, that's what I'll miss
good luck to all your friends

My current feeling? Hmmm...

An old robyn hitchcock tune coming to mind here, please don't hurt me if i'm not remembering the lyrics 100% :) *clears throat*


It's a raymond chandler evening
at the end of someone's day
and I'm standing in my pocket
and I'm slowly turning gray

I remember what I told you
but I can't remember why
and the yellow leaves are falling
in a spiral from the sky

There's a body on the railing
that I can't identify
and I'd like to reassure you
but I'm not that kind of guy

It's a raymond chandler evening
and the pavements are all wet
and I'm standing in my pocket
'cause it hasn't happened... yet


Any O'Barr or "The Crow" fans will recognize the third stanza I think :) and if you're one, andyou don't: Read the comic, it's way better than the movie!!!!

Overboard
I see you crying and it rains
Washing away the bad days
Washing away the pain loss brings yeah
And then you smile though it aches
'Cause you don't believe in mistakes
Just that we made a mess of things

When the deal that you made with love is now a one way street
A one way street
And you'll feel you'll go overboard
'Cause you're incomplete, incomplete

You're not afraid to rely
On any way you can try
To learn to make some sense of things yeah
And the way you say we'll get by
With a little laugh we can fly
You know the measure of hope that brings

When the deal that you made with love is now a one way street
A one way street
And you'll feel you'll go overboard
'Cause you're incomplete, incomplete

I hear you laughing like a child
Instead of choking all riled
Instead of staring at shortcomings yeah
Just like the rain when you cried
Washed all the stains of false pride
You'll learn to make the best of things

Have a little more of not enough
More of what is less but isn't love
Little of the same you're dreaming of
That's enough, that's enough

When the deal that you made with love is now a one way street
A one way street
And you'll feel you'll go overboard
'Cause you're incomplete, incomplete (x4)

Shadows fill an empty heart
As love is fading,
From all the things that we are
But are not saying
Can we see beyond the scars
And make it to the dawn?

Change the colors of the sky
And open up to
The ways you made me feel alive,
The ways I loved you
For all the things that never died,
To make it through the night,
Love will find you

What about now?
What about today?
What if you're making me all that I was meant to be?
What if our love never went away?
What if it's lost behind words we could never find?
Baby, before it's too late,
What about now?

The sun is breaking in your eyes
To start a new day
This broken heart can still survive
With a touch of your grace
Shadows fade into the light
I am by your side
Where love will find you

Now that we're here,
Now that we've come this far,
Just hold on
There is nothing to fear,
For I am right beside you
For all my life,
I am yours.


~ Daughtry - What about now ~

Seether - Broken

I wanted you to know I love the way you laugh
I wanna hold you high and steal your pain away
I keep your photograph; I know it serves me well
I wanna hold you high and steal your pain

'cause I'm broken when I'm open
And I don't feel like I am strong enough
'cause I'm broken when I'm lonesome
And I don't feel right when you're gone away

The worst is over now and we can breathe again
I wanna hold you high, you steal my pain away
There's so much left to learn, and no one left to fight
I wanna hold you high and steal your pain

'cause I'm broken when I'm open
And I don't feel like I am strong enough
'cause I'm broken when I'm lonesome
And I don't feel right when you're gone away


Because sometimes I feel like sh-t and cannot find my place...

Sunrise Avenue - Fairytale Gone Bad

Out of my life, Out of my mind
Out of the tears that we can’t deny
We need to swallow all our pride
And leave this mess behind
Out of my head, Out of my bed
Out of the dreams we had, they’re bad
Tell them it’s me who made you sad
Tell them the fairytale gone bad

    smashing pumpkins ~ Luna

    What moon songs
    Do you sing your babies
    What sunshine
    Do you bring

    Who belongs
    Who decides whos crazy
    Who rights wrongs
    Where others cling

    Ill sing for you
    If you want me to
    Ill give to you
    And its a chance Ill have to take
    And its a chance Ill have to break

    I go along
    Just because Im lazy
    I go along
    To be with you

    And those moon songs
    That you sing your babies
    Will be the songs
    To see you thru

    Ill hear your song
    If you want me to
    Ill sing along
    And its a chance Ill have to take
    And its a chance Ill have to break

    Im in love with you
    Im in love with you
    Im in love with you

    Im in love with you
    So in love
    Im in love with you
    Im in love with you

    Im in love with you
    So in love
    Im in love with you
    Im so in love
    Im in love with you

Stone Sour - Sillyworld

Freedom's just a word today
Freedom's just a word
When someone takes your word away it's seldom ever heard
So take a sentence full of things you're not supposed to say
Carry on, but don't write it down or you'll be gone

Peace is just two fingers now
Peace was just a phase
When someone put it on a shirt
you knew to count the days
So take those fingers tape 'em up and shove 'em up your ***
and carry on.... but don't try it now,
cause peace is gone

All we ever do is talk
We like to ride but we never walk
We make it so damn easy
We get bored
Why can't anybody see - what's good for you is bad for me
I can't take your Sillyworld
I can't take your Sillyworld no more

Avril Lavigne - Anything but ordinary
Quote:

Sometimes I get so weird
I even freak myself out
I laugh myself to sleep
It's my lullaby
Sometimes I drive so fast
Just to feel the danger
I wanna scream
It makes me feel alive

Is it enough to love?
Is it enough to breathe?
Somebody rip my heart out
And leave me here to bleed
Is it enough to die?
Somebody save my life
I'd rather be anything but ordinary please

To walk within the lines
Would make my life so boring
I want to know that I
Have been to the extreme
So knock me off my feet
Come on now give it to me
Anything to make me feel alive

Is it enough to love?
Is it enough to breathe?
Somebody rip my heart out
And leave me here to bleed
Is it enough to die?
Somebody save my life
I'd rather be anything but ordinary please
I'd rather be anything but ordinary please.

Let down your defenses
Use no common sense
If you look you will see
that this world is this beautiful
accident turbulent succulent
occulent permanent
No way I wanna taste it
Dont wanna waste it away

Sometimes I get so weird
I even freak myself out
I laugh my self to sleep
It's my lullaby

Is it enough?
Is it enough?
Is it enough to love?
Is it enough to breathe?
Somebody rip my heart out
And leave me here to bleed
Is it enough to die?
Somebody save my life
I'd rather be anything but ordinary please

Is it enough?
Is it enough to die?
Somebody save my life
I'd rather be anything but ordinary please
I'd rather be anything but ordinary please.

Josh Groban - You raise me up
When I am down and, oh my soul, so weary
When troubles come and my heart burdened be
Then, I am still and wait here in the silence
Until you come and sit awhile with me

You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders
You raise me up: To more than I can be

You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders
You raise me up: To more than I can be

Within Temptation - Bittersweet

If I tell you
Will you listen?
Will you stay?
Will you be here forever?
Never go away?
Never thought things would change, hold me tight
Please don't say again that you have to go

A bitter thought
I had it all
But I just let it go
Hold your silence
It's so violence since you're gone

All my thoughts are with you forever
'Till the day we'll be back together
I will be waiting for you

If I had told you
You would've listened
You had stayed
You would be here forever
Never went away

It would never have been all the same
All our time what have been in vain
Cause you had to go

The sweetest thought
Had it all
Cause I did let you go
All our moments keep me warm
When you're gone

All my thoughts are with you forever
'Till the day we'll be back together
I will be waiting for you

Fun Lovin' Criminals - Swashbucklin' In Brooklyn

My man was workin at the seafood spot
Sellin fish n chips and dealin bags of pot
Dressed in a pirates uniform and all
Lookin like a fool headin for a fall
He was walkin home late one night godbless
Heard the scream of a woman in immediate distress
??????
he headed down the alley hoping for the best
he saw the girl who was screamin her mouth beat shut
two guys standin by her bout to get fucked up
he said you don't hit the bitches while I'm still alive
stabbed on in the neck the other in the eye
the girl ran home told her daddy she was saved
by a pirate with a shiv and a real smooth way
the vision of the pirate would surely never fade
so she called the New York post and tried to get paid

super hero your my super hero
super hero your my super hero

Now the story ran the following day page two
But swashbucklin in Brooklyn is all he want to do
I tried to sit him down and think things through
But swashbucklin in Brooklyn is all he want to do
Now he was havin problems like diving without drowning
The city the cops the mob trying to stop him
He needed a psychic thats where I came in
Tell his story to the world help him with his shit
We cruise down the river patrolling the docks
Deliverin justice to eight square blocks
Brooklyn was safe nobody got shot
We used swords and daggers and kung fu what nots
This kinda shits ??? had no choice
Doin it for free like the village voice
This ends my first installment of the story
He was good kicking ass but bad with the glory


Aye - a swashbuckler life for me! ;) :P

This is what I feel right now guys, I don't know what it means, but I wrote it some 5 minutes ago....

A subtlety in life usually is outgoing,
Not to mention the fine line of escapism is nothing extravagant.
The deity of my life is nothing forgiving,
Mere in a way it could be very grieving.

Connotations and the full dots is the final closure,
My life in a rhythm such points to ponder.
Flowers and high skies redeem my calmness,
But solitude of sorrow and its excruciating blindness deters me old.

Could it be the wicker man stand or just a mere man?
Though I’m not to bold, to be console.
Endless columns of though is the way I see,
In a salvation of my predicament of this destiny…..
:? :?

And I just wanna be near to you
When the things we done come clear to you
And I wanna go mad, I wanna go mad
I wanna go mad for a minute
I just wanna be in it
I just wanna be near to you
When the things we done come clear to you
And I wanna go mad, I wanna go mad
I wanna go mad for a minute
I just wanna be in it, I do

Vitamin C : Friends 4 ever

And so we talked all night about the rest of our lives
Where we're gonna be when we turn 25
I keep thinking times will never change
Keep on thinking things will always be the same
But when we leave this year we won't be coming back
No more hanging out cause we're on a different track
And if you got something that you need to say
You better say it right now cause you don't have another day
Cause we're moving on and we can't slow down
These memories are playing like a film without sound
And I keep thinking of that night in June
I didn't know much of love
But it came too soon
And there was me and you
And then we got real cool
Stay at home talking on the telephone with me
We'd get so excited, we'd get so scared
Laughing at our selves thinking life's not fair
And this is how it feels
1 - As we go on
We remember
All the times we
Had together
And as our lives change
Come whatever
We will still be
Friends forever
So if we get the big jobs
And we make the big money
When we look back now
Will our jokes still be funny?
Will we still remember everything we learned in school?
Still be trying to break every single rule
Will little brainy Bobby be the stockbroker man?
Can we ever find a job that won't interfere with a tan?
I keep, I keep thinking that it's not goodbye
Keep on thinking it's a time to fly
And this is how it feels
Repeat 1
La, la, la, la;
Yeah, yeah, yeah
La, la, la, la;
We will still be friends forever
Will we think about tomorrow like we think about now?
Can we survive it out there?
Can we make it somehow?
I guess I thought that this would never end
And suddenly it's like we're women and men
Will the past be a shadow that will follow us 'round?
Will these memories fade when I leave this town
I keep, I keep thinking that it's not goodbye
Keep on thinking it's a time to fly

Flying
I do not remember anything before there was
flying

Some people think they're so wise
There are two ways to fall,
emrace the earth, or get buried beneath

Personally,I am throwing away this
bottle of pepsi

There's always times to try new flavours
maybe at the end of some pine
we'll be friends as well
Enough said
Vitamin C gets thrown away

Josh Groban - When you say you love me

Like the sound of silence calling,
I hear your voice and suddenly
I'm falling, lost in a dream
Like the echoes of our souls are meeting,
You say those words and my heart stops beating
I wonder what it means
What could it be that comes over me?
At times I can't move
At times I can hardly breathe

When you say you love me
The world goes still, so still inside and
When you say you love me
For a moment, there's no one else alive

You're the one I've always thought of
I don't know how, but I feel sheltered in your love
You're where I belong
And when you're with me if I close my eyes,
There are times I swear I feel like I can fly
For a moment in time
Somewhere between the Heavens and Earth ,
and frozen in time, when you say those words

Caleb Kane - Go Mad That man's a genius, really.

And I just wanna be near to you
When the things we done come clear to you
And I wanna go mad, I wanna go mad
I wanna go mad for a minute
I just wanna be in it
I just wanna be near to you
When the things we done come clear to you
And I wanna go mad, I wanna go mad
I wanna go mad for a minute
I just wanna be in it, I do

Blackmore's Night - World Of Stone

Once a world of glittering hope
This world is not the world we knew
The only light left to shine
Is between me and you

I had once believed in angels
They were everywhere I looked
A gentle hand guiding me
To give more than I took

But I have died a thousand times
Watching all these angels fall
Their lonely eyes haunt me still
We will avenge them all

And they will never break our spirit
We will never turn and run
And we will rise stronger still
When we stand as one!

I was sure by now
That You would have reached down
And wiped our tears away
Stepped in and saved the day
But once again, I say "Amen", and it's still raining

As the thunder rolls
I barely hear Your whisper through the rain
"I'm with you"
And as Your mercy falls
I raise my hands and praise the God who gives
And takes away

I'll praise You in this storm
And I will lift my hands
For You are who You are
No matter where I am
Every tear I've cried
You hold in Your hand
You never left my side
And though my heart is torn
I will praise You in this storm

I remember when
I stumbled in the wind
You heard my cry
You raised me up again
My strength is almost gone
How can I carry on
If I can't find You

As the thunder rolls
I barely hear You whisper through the rain
"I'm with you"
And as Your mercy falls
I raise my hands and praise the God who gives
And takes away

I lift my eyes unto the hills
Where does my help come from?
My help comes from the Lord
The Maker of Heaven and Earth


Casting Crowns-Praise You In This Storm
