DID MY TIME

Realized I can never win
Sometimes feel like I have failed
Inside where do I begin?
My mind is laughing at me

Tell me, why am I to blame?
Aren't we supposed to be the same?
That's why I will never tame
This thing thats burning in me

I am the one who chose my path
I am the one who couldn't last
I feel the life pulled from me
I feel the anger changing me

Sometimes I can never tell
If I got something after me
That's why I just beg and plead
For this curse to leave me

Tell me, why am I to blame?
Aren't we supposed to be the same?
That's why I will never tame
This thing thats burning in me

I am the one who chose my path
I am the one who couldn't last
I feel the life pulled from me
I feel the anger changing me

Betrayed
I feel so
Enslaved
I really tried
I did my time
I did my time
I did my time
I did my time
I did my TIME

I am the one who chose my path
I am the one who couldn't last
I feel the life pulled from me
I feel the anger changing me

Oh god the anger's changing me
Oh god the anger's changing me

BUTTERFLY CAUGHT

WALK

Can't you see I'm easily bothered by persistence
One step from lashing out at you...
You want in to get under my skin
And call yourself a friend
I've got more friends like you
What do I do?

Is there no standard anymore?
What it takes, who I am, where I've been
Belong
You can't be something you're not
Be yourself, by yourself
Stay away from me
A lesson learned in life
Known from the dawn of time

Respect, walk

Run your mouth when I'm not around
It's easy to achieve
You cry to weak friends that sympathize
Can you hear the violins playing you song?
Those same friends tell me your every word


Are you talking to me?
No way punk

PANTERA

WAITING FOR GODOT

PER CHI NON LO CONOSCESSE...

Vladimiro (chiamato anche Didi) ed Estragone (chiamato anche Gogo) stanno aspettando su una desolata strada di campagna un "certo Signor Godot".Come detto non vi è nulla sulla scena, solo un albero dietro ai due personaggi che regala la concezione temporale attraverso la caduta delle foglie che indica il passare dei giorni. Ma questo personaggio, Godot, non appare mai sulla scena, ne mai si dice niente sul suo conto, egli si limita a mandare un ragazzo dai due vagabondi, il quale dirà ai due protagonisti che "oggi non verrà, ma che verrà domani", riferendosi al suo mandante.

I due uomini, vestiti come barboni, si lamentano continuamente del freddo, della fame e del loro stato esistenziale; litigano, pensano di separarsi (anche di suicidarsi) ma alla fine restano l'uno dipendente dall'altro. Ed è proprio attraverso i loro discorsi insensati e superficiali inerenti argomenti futili e banali, che emerge il nonsenso della vita umana predicato dall'autore.

Ad un certo punto della pièce arrivano altri due personaggi: Pozzo e Lucky. Pozzo, che si definisce il proprietario della terra sulla quale Vladimiro ed Estragone stanno, è un uomo crudele e al tempo stesso "pietoso", tratta il suo servo Lucky come una bestia, tenendolo al guinzaglio con una lunga corda. Pozzo, nell'idea dell'autore dell'opera, rappresenta il capitalista e Lucky il proletario e la corda che li unisce indica l'indispensabilità dell'uno per l'altro e viceversa.I due nuovi personaggi successivamente escono di scena. Didi e Gogo, dopo aver avuto l'incontro con ragazzo "messaggero di Godot", rimangono fermi mentre dicono "andiamo, andiamo" a testimoniare ancora una volta l'insensatezza della loro vita e la mancanza di una meta, di un obiettivo da raggiungere.

Il secondo atto differisce solo in apparenza dal primo: Vladimiro ed Estragone sono di nuovo nello stesso posto della sera precedente. Continuano a parlare (a volte con "non senso" a volte utilizzando luoghi comuni, detti popolari, anche con effetti comici). Ritornano in scena Pozzo, che è diventato cieco, e Lucky, che ora è muto ma con una differenza, ora la corda che li unisce è più corta ad indicare la soffocante simbiosi dei due. Escono di scena. Rientra il ragazzo che dice che anche oggi il Signor Godot non verrà. Esce. E Vladimiro ed Estragone rimangono lì mentre dicono "andiamo, andiamo"..

The Warmth

I'd like to close my eyes and go numb
But there's a cold wind coming from
The top of the highest high-rise today.
It's not a breeze 'cause it blows hard.
Yes and it wants me to discard the humanity I know,
Watch the warmth blow away.

Don't let the world bring you down.
Not everyone here is that fucked up and cold.
Remember why you came and while you're alive
Experience the warmth before you grow old.

Do you think I should adhere to that pressing new frontier?
And leave in my wake a trail of fear(?)
Or should I hold my head up high
And throw a wrench and spokes by
Leaving the air behind me clear?

Don't let the world bring you down.
Not everyone here is that fucked up and cold.
Remember why you came and while you're alive
Experience the warmth before you grow old

INCUBUS

pick up the phone

You know this place,
You know this gloom?
We've been here before.
When life is a loop,
You're in a room without a door.

Pick up the phone and answer me at last.
Today I will step out of your past.

""Trouble that we've come to know will stay with us"",
With every step it slowly grows.
Rub off the rust.

Pick up the phone and answer me at last.
Today I will step out of your past

NOTWIST

GRACE

There's the moon asking to stay
Long enough for the clouds to fly me away
Though it's my time coming, I'm not afraid, afraid to die
My fading voice sings of love,
But she cries to the clicking of time,
Of time

Wait in the fire...

And she weeps on my arm
Walking to the bright lights in sorrow
Oh drink a bit of wine we both might go tomorrow,oh my love
And the rain is falling and I believe
My time has come
It reminds me of the pain I might leave
Leave behind

Wait in the fire...

And I feel them drown my name
So easy to know and forget with this kiss
But I'm not afraid to go but it goes so slow

Wait in the fire...

ASK

Shyness is nice, and

Shyness can stop you

From doing all the things in life 

You'd like to

So, if there's something you'd like to try

If there's something you'd like to try

ASK ME - I WON'T SAY "NO" - HOW COULD I?

Coyness is nice, and

Coyness can stop you

From saying all the things in life 

You'd like to

So, if there's something you'd like to try

If there's something you'd like to try

ASK ME - I WON'T SAY "NO" - HOW COULD I?

Spending warm Summer days indoors 

Writing frightening verse 

To a buck-toothed girl in Luxembourg

ASK ME, ASK ME, ASK ME

ASK ME, ASK ME, ASK ME

Because if it's not Love

Then it's the Bomb

That will bring us together

Nature is a language - can't you read?

Nature is a language - can't you read?

ASK ME, ASK ME, ASK ME

ASK ME, ASK ME, ASK ME

Because if it's not Love

Then it's the Bomb

That will bring us together

THE SMITHS

Every Day Is Exactly The Same

i believe i can see the future
'cause i repeat the same routine
i think i used to have a purpose
but then again
it might have been a dream

i think i used to have a voice
now i never make a sound
and i just do what i've been told
i really don't want
them to come around, oh no

every day is exactly the same
every day is exactly the same
there is no love here, and there is no pain
every day is exactly the same

i can feel their eyes are watching
in case i lose myself again
sometimes i think i'm happy here (sometimes)
sometimes, yet i still pretend

i can't remember how this got started
but i can tell you
exactly how it will end

every day is exactly the same
every day is exactly the same
there is no love here, and there is no pain
every day is exactly the same

i'm writing on a little piece of paper
i'm hoping someday you might find
well i'll hide it behind something
they won't look behind

i am still inside you
a little bit comes bleeding through
i wish this could have been any other way
but i just don't know
i don't know what else i can do

every day is exactly the same
every day is exactly the same
there is no love here, and there is no pain
every day is exactly the same
every day is exactly the same
every day is exactly the same
there is no love here, and there is no pain
every day is exactly the same

INNUENDO

While the sun hangs in the sky and the desert has sand
While the waves crash in the sea and meet the land
While there's a wind and the stars and the rainbow
Till the mountains crumble into the plain
Oh yes we'll keep on tryin'
Tread that fine line
Oh we'll keep on tryin' yeah
Just passing our time
While we live according to race, colour or creed
While we rule by blind madness and pure greed
Our lives dictated by tradition, superstition, false religion
Through the eons, and on and on
Oh yes we'll keep on tryin'
We'll tread that fine line
Oh we'll keep on tryin'
Till the end of time
Till the end of time

Through the sorrow all through our splendour
Don't take offence at my innuendo

You can be anything you want to be
Just turn yourself into anything you think that you could ever be
Be free with your tempo, be free be free
Surrender your ego - be free, be free to yourself

Oooh, ooh -
If there's a God or any kind of justice under the sky
If there's a point, if there's a reason to live or die
If there's an answer to the questions we feel bound to ask
Show yourself - destroy our fears - release your mask
Oh yes we'll keep on trying
Hey tread that fine line
Yeah we'll keep on smiling yeah
And whatever will be - will be
We'll just keep on trying
We'll just keep on trying
Till the end of time
Till the end of time
Till the end of time

DOWN IN A HOLE

Bury Me Softly In This Womb
I Give This Part Of Me For You
Sand Rains Down And Here I Sit
Holding Rare Flowers
In A Tomb.....In Bloom

Down In A Hole And I Don't Know
If I Can Be Saved
See My Heart I Decorate It
Like A Grave
You Don't Understand Who They
Thought I Was Supposed To Be
Look At Me Now A Man
Who Won't Let Himself Be

Down In A Hole, Losin' My Soul
Down In A Hole, Losin' Control
I'd Like To Fly
But My Wings Have Been So Denied

Down In A Hole And They've Put All
The Stones In Their Place
I've Eaten The Sun So My Tongue
Has Been Burned Of The Taste
I Have Been Guilty
Of Kicking Myself In The Teeth
I Will Speak No More
Of My Feelings Beneath

Oh I Want To Be Inside Of You

Down In A Hole, Losin' My Soul
Down In A Hole, Feelin' So Small
Down In A Hole, Losin' My Soul
Down In A Hole, Out Of Control

I'd Like To Fly
But My Wings Have Been So Denied

nobody's wife

I'm sorry for the times that I made you scream
for the times that I killed your dreams
for the times that I made your whole world rumble

for the times that I made you cry
for the times that I told you lies
for the times that I watched and let you stumble

It's too bad, but that's me
what goes around comes around, you'll see
that I can carry the burden of pain
'cause it ain't the first time that a man goes insane
and when I spread my wings to embrace him for life
I'm suckin' out his love, 'cause I, I'll never be nobody's wife

I'm sorry for the times that I didn't come home
left you lyin' in that bed alone
was flyin' high in the sky when you needed my shoulder

you're like a stone hangin' round my neck, see
cut it loose before it breaks my back, see
I've gotta say what I feel before I grow older

I'm sorry but I ain't gonna change my ways
you know I've tried but I'm still the same
I've got to do it my own way

It's too bad, but hey, that's me
what goes around comes around, you'll see
that I can carry the burden of pain
'cause it ain't the first time that a man goes insane
and when I spread my wings to embrace him for life
I'm suckin' out his love, I, I'll never be nobody's wife

It's too bad, but hey, that's me
what goes around comes around, you'll see
that I can carry the burden of pain
'cause it ain't the first time that a man goes insane
and when I spread my wings to embrace him for life
I'm suckin' out his love, I, I'll never be nobody's wife

Portishead

No-one said
We'd ever known each other
And new evidence is what we require
In this world

I stand on the edge of a broken sky
And I will come down; don't know why
And if I should fall, would you hold me?
Would you pass me by?
For you know I'd ask you for nothing
Just to wait for a while

So confused
My thoughts are takin' over
Unwanted, arising space me instead
Won't let go

I stand on the edge of a broken sky
And I will come down; don't know why
And if I should fall, would you hold me?
Would you pass me by?
For you know I'd ask you for nothing
Just to wait for a while

LOVE WILL TEAR US APART

When the routine bites hard
And ambitions are low
And the resentment rides high
But emotions wont grow
And were changing our ways,
Taking different roads
Then love, love will tear us apart again

Why is the bedroom so cold
Turned away on your side?
Is my timing that flawed,
Our respect run so dry?
Yet theres still this appeal
That weve kept through our lives
Love, love will tear us apart again

Do you cry out in your sleep
All my failings expose?
Get a taste in my mouth
As desperation takes hold
Is it something so good
Just cant function no more?
When love, love will tear us apart again

Doing the unstuck

It's a perfect day for letting go
For setting fire to bridges
Boat
And other dreary worlds you know
Let's get happy !
It a perfect day for making out
To wake up with a smile without a doubt
To burst grin giggle bliss skip jump sing and shout
Let's get happy !

"But it's much too late" you say
"For doing this now
We should have done it then"
Well it just goes to show
How wrong you can be
And how you really should know
That it's never too late
To get up and go

It's a perfect day for kiss and swell
For rip-zipping button-popping kiss and well...
There's loads of other stuff can make you yell
Let's get happy !
It a perfect day for doing the unstuck
For dancing like you can't hear the beat
And you don't give a further thought
To things like feet
Let's get happy !

"But it's much too late" you say
"For doing this now
We should have done it then"
Well it just goes to show
How wrong you can be
And how you really should know
That it's never too late
To get up and go

Kick out the gloom
Kick out the blues
Tear out the pages with all the bad news
Pull down the mirror and pull down the walls
Tear up the stairs and tear up the floors
Oh just burn down the house !
Burn down the street !
Turn everything red and the beat is complete
With the sound of your world
Going up in the fire
It's a perfect day to throw back you head
And kiss it all goodbye

It's a perfect day for getting wild
Forgetting all your worries
Life
And everything that makes you cry
Let's get happy !
It's a perfect day for dreams come true
For thinking big
And doing anything you want to do
Let's get happy !

"But it's much too late" you say
"For doing this now
We should have done it then"
Well it just goes to show
How wrong you can be
And how you really should know
That it's never too late
To get up and go

Kick out the gloom
Kick out the blues
Tear out the pages with all the bad news
Pull down the mirror and pull down the walls
Tear up the stairs and tear up the floors
Oh just burn down the house !
Burn down the street !
Turn everything red and the dream is complete
With the sound of your world
Going up in the fire
It's a perfect day to throw back you head
And kiss it all goodbye

REMEMBER

Sensation washes over me
I can't describe it
Pain I felt so long ago
I don't remember
Tear a hole so I can see
My devastation
Feelings from so long ago
I don't remember

Holding on, to let them know
What's given to me, given to me
To hide behind
The mask this time
And try to believe

Blind your eyes to what you see
You can't embrace it
Leave it well enough alone
And don't remember
Cut your pride and watch it bleed
You can't deny it
Pain you know you can't ignore
I don't remember

Holding on, to let them know
What's given to me, given to me
To hide behind
The mask this time
And try to believe

If I can
Remember
To know this will
Conquer me
If I can
Just walk alone
And try to escape
Into me

[whispering:]
Sensation washes over me
I can't describe it
Pain I felt so long ago
I don't remember

I'm just holding on, to let them know
What's given to me, given to me
To hide behind
The mask this time
And try to believe

If I can
Remember
To know this will
Conquer me
If I can
Just walk alone
And try to escape
Into me
into me
into me

If Only Tonight We Could Sleep

If only tonight we could sleep
In a bed made of flowers
If only tonight we could fall
In a deathless spell

If only tonight we could slide
Into deep black water
And breathe
And breathe...

Then an angel would come
With burning eyes like stars
And bury us deep
In his velvet arms

And the rain would cry
As our faces slipped away
And the rain would cry

Don't let it end...

T.C.

CHANGE

I watched you change
Into a fly
I looked away
You were on fire
I watched a change in you
It's like you never had wings
Now you feel so alive
I've watched you change

I took you home
Set you on the glass
I pulled off your wings
Then I laughed
I watched a change in you
It's like you never had wings
Now you feel so alive
I've watched you change

It's like you never had wings...
ahh-ah-aaah

I look at the cross
Then I look away
Give you the gun
Blow me away

I watched a change in you
It's like you never had wings
Now you feel so alive
I've watched you change
And you feel alive
You feel alive
I've watched you change

It's like you never had wings...
ahh-ah-aaah
You change
...I'm over
