The Cure - One Hundred Years

It doesn't matter if we all die

Ambition in the back of a black car

In a high building there is so much to do

Going home time

A story on the radio

Something small falls out of your mouth

And we laugh

A prayer for something better

A prayer

For something better

Please love me

Meet my mother

But the fear takes hold

Creeping up the stairs in the dark

Waiting for the death blow

Waiting for the death blow

Waiting for the death blow

Stroking your hair as the patriots are shot

Fighting for freedom on television

Sharing the world with slaughtered pigs

Have we got everything?

She struggles to get away . . .

The pain

And the creeping feeling

A little black haired girl

Waiting for Saturday

The death of her father pushing her

Pushing her white face into the mirror

Aching inside me

And turn me round

Just like the old days

Just like the old days

Just like the old days

Just like the old days

Caressing an old man

And painting a lifeless face

Just a piece of new meat in a clean room

The soldiers close in under a yellow moon

All shadows and deliverance

Under a black flag

A hundred years of blood

Crimson

The ribbon tightens round my throat

I open my mouth

And my head bursts open

A sound like a tiger thrashing in the water

Thrashing in the water

Over and over

We die one after the other

Over and over

We die one after the other

One after the other

One after the other

One after the other

One after the other

It feels like a hundred years

A hundred years

A hundred years

A hundred years

A hundred years

One hundred years

Nailbomb - World Of ****

Violence is what you breed

Racism is what you breed

Hate is what you breed

What do you expect me to be??!

Peace brother, **** you bastard

I don't need your false friendship

Freedom is a bunch of ****

This is a world of ****

Misery is what we see

Murder is what we see

Ignorance is what we see

What do you expect me to be?

Bad Penny by Big Black:

"I think I ****** your girlfriend once.

Maybe twice, I don't remember.

Then I ****** all your friend's girlfriends.

Now they hate you."

THEY hate YOU. Excellent lyrics!

All That I'm Living For - Acoustic Version

I can feel the night beginning

Separate me from the living

Understanding me

After all I've seen

Piecing every thought together

Find the words to make me better

If I only knew how to pull myself apart

All that I'm living for

All that I'm dying for

All that I can't ignore alone at night

All that I'm wanted for

Although I wanted more

Lock the last open door

My ghosts are gaining on me

I believe that dreams are sacred

Take my darkest fears and play them

Like a lullaby

Like a reason why

Like a play of my obsessions

Make me understand the lesson

So I'll find myself

So I won't be lost again

All that I'm living for

All that I'm dying for

All that I can't ignore alone at night

All that I'm wanted for

Although I wanted more

Lock the last open door

My ghosts are gaining on me

Guess I thought I'd have to change the world

To make you see me

To be the one

I could have run forever

But how far would I have come

Without mourning your love?

All that I'm living for

All that I'm dying for

All that I can't ignore alone at night

All that I'm wanted for

Although I wanted more

Lock the last open door

My ghosts are gaining on me

Should it hurt to love you?

Should I feel like I do?

Should I lock the last open door

My ghosts are gaining on me

Sweet Sacrifice

It's true

We're all a little insane

But it's so clear

Now that I'm unchained

Fear is only in our minds

Taking over all the time

Fear is only in our minds

but it's taking over all the time

You poor sweet innocent thing

Dry your eyes and testify

You know you live to break me

Don't deny

Sweet sacrifice

One day

I'm gonna forget your name

And one sweet day

You're gonna drown in my lost pain

Fear is only in our minds

Taking over all the time

Fear is only in our minds

But it's taking over all the time

You poor sweet innocent thing

Dry your eyes and testify

And oh, you love to hate me

Don't you, honey?

I'm your sacrifice

I dream in darkness

I sleep to die

Erase the silence

Erase my life

Do you wonder [Our burning ashes]

Why you hate? [Blacken the day]

Are you still so weak [A world of nothingness]

To survive your mistakes? [Blow me away]

You poor sweet innocent thing

Dry your eyes and testify

You know you live to break me Don't deny

Sweet sacrifice

Good Enough

Under your spell again

I can't say no to you

Crave my heart and it's bleeding in your hand

I can't say no to you

Shouldn't let you torture me so sweetly

Now I can't let go of this dream

I can't breathe but I feel

Good enough

I feel good enough for you

Drink up sweet decadence

I can't say no to you

And I've completely lost myself and I don't mind

I can't say no to you

Shouldn't let you conquer me completely

Now I can't let go of this dream

Can't believe that I feel

Good enough

I feel good enough

It's been such a long time coming, but I feel good

And I'm still waiting for the rain to fall

Pour real life down on me

'Cause I can't hold on to anything this

Good enough

Am I good enough for you to love me too?

So take care what you ask of me

'Cause I can't say no

I think mine would be Perfect by Simple Plan...

Hey Dad look at me

Think back and talk to me

Did I grow up according

To plan?

And do you think I閳ユ獡 wasting

My time doing things I

Wanna do?

But it hurts when you

Disapprove all along

And now I try hard to make it

I just want to make you proud

I閳ユ獡 never gonna be good

Enough for you

Can閳ユ獩 pretend that

I閳ユ獡 alright

And you can閳ユ獩 change me

閳ユゥuz we lost it all

Nothing lasts forever

I閳ユ獡 sorry

I can閳ユ獩 be Perfect

Now it閳ユ獨 just too late

And we can閳ユ獩 go back

I閳ユ獡 sorry

I can閳ユ獩 be Perfect

I try not to think

About the pain I feel inside

Did you know you used to be

My hero?

All the days

You spent with me

Now seem so far away

And it feels like you don閳ユ獩

Care anymore

And now I try hard to make it

I just want to make you proud

I閳ユ獡 never gonna be good

Enough for you

I can閳ユ獩 stand another fight

And nothing's alright

閳ユゥuz we lost it all

Nothing lasts forever

I閳ユ獡 sorry

I can閳ユ獩 be Perfect

Now it閳ユ獨 just too late

And we can閳ユ獩 go back

I閳ユ獡 sorry

I can閳ユ獩 be Perfect

Nothing閳ユ獨 gonna change

The things that you said

Nothing閳ユ獨 gonna make this

Right again

Please don閳ユ獩 turn your back

I can閳ユ獩 believe it閳ユ獨 hard

Just to talk to you

But you don閳ユ獩 understand

閳ユゥuz we lost it all

Nothing lasts forever

I閳ユ獡 sorry

I can閳ユ獩 be Perfect

Now it閳ユ獨 just too late

And we can閳ユ獩 go back

I閳ユ獡 sorry

閳ユゥuz we lost it all

Nothing lasts forever

I閳ユ獡 sorry

I can閳ユ獩 be Perfect

Now it閳ユ獨 just too late

And we can閳ユ獩 go back

I閳ユ獡 sorry

I can閳ユ獩 be Perfect

"Life is a Minestrone" 10cc

I'm dancing on the White House lawn

Sipping tea by the Taj Mahal at dawn

Hanging round the gardens of Babylon

Minnie Mouse has got it all sewn up

She gets more fan mail than the Pope

She takes the mickey out of all my phobias

Like signing cheques to ward off double pneumonia

Life is a minestrone

Served up with parmesan cheese

Death is a cold Lasagne

Suspended in deep freeze

I'm leaning on the Tower of Pisa

Had an eyeful of the tower in France

I'm hanging round the gardens of Madison

And the seat of learning

And the flush of success

Relieves a constipated mind

I'm like a gourmet in a skid row diner

A fitting menu for a dilettante

Life is a minestrone

Served up with parmesan cheese

Death is a cold Lasagne

Suspended in deep freeze

Love is a fire of flaming brandy

Upon a crepe suzette

Let's get this romance cooking, honey

But let us not forget

Life is a minestrone

Served up with parmesan cheese

Death is a cold Lasagne

Suspended in deep freeze
