I don't really understand it, but apparently, Gopher Boy wants to sell someone his raspberries.

Crusaders in white, red crosses they wear
Defilers of light, in god's name they dare Acolytes of God or Baphomet By the churches' law merchants of death Nightmare-like out of their brain Visions that drive them insane Holy war inside their head Holy men who walk with the dead We don't want your holy war Don't need this bloodshed anymore The funeral pyres burn evermore We don't want your holy war Fire and ice falls from the sky Raining death on all human life Words of fear to breed in the heart Fractured lies to tear us apart We don't want your holy war Don't neeed this bloodshed anymore The funeral pyres burn evermore We don't want your holy war Everyone wants a paradise Nobody wants to pay the price Peace only comes from sacrifice Still the winds of war blow on So many say that they believe Yet they don't prctise what they preach Power hunger spawned out of greed Still the fires of hell burn on Blasphemy done in god's own name Holy men never take the blame Seems like the world has gone insane still the fires of hell burn on Sands of time are running out for us all Free your mind before we fall Senselessly the war machine marches on Bathory before the dawn We don't want your holy war Don't need this bloodshed anymore The funeral pyres burn evermore We don't want your holy war |

Some love is just a lie of the heart
The cold remains of what began with a passionate start And they may not want it to end But it will it's just a question of when I've lived long enough to have learned The closer you get to the fire the more you get burned But that won't happen to us Because it's always been a matter of trust I know you're an emotional girl It took a lot for you to not lose your faith in this world I can't offer you proof But you're going to face a moment of truth It's hard when you're always afraid You just recover when another belief is betrayed So break my heart if you must It's a matter of trust You can't go the distance With too much resistance I know you have doubts But for God's sake don't shut me out This time you've got nothing to lose You can take it, you can leave it Whatever you choose I won't hold back anything And I'll walk a way a fool or a king Some love is just a lie of the mind It's make believe until it's only a matter of time And some might have learned to adjust But then it never was a matter of trust I'm sure you're aware love We've both had our share of Believing too long When the whole situation was wrong Some love is just a lie of the soul A constant battle for the ultimate state of control After you've heard lie upon lie There can hardly be a question of why Some love is just a lie of the heart The cold remains of what began with a passionate start But that can't happen to us Because it's always been a matter of trust --Billy Joel, Matter of Trust

This song played on the radio this morning. I called BelovedDaughter and asked if she was driving. Nope, still at home, why? Because there's a song playing that makes me think of you. She could hear it in the background and she said, I think of me too when I hear that song. I told her good, but don't hurry through it, enjoy each day. We exchanged "I love you"s and I hung up before she could hear my voice fail.

Don't Mess With Musicians
I think this is a prime example of don't mess with musicians. In the old days even royalty was afraid of someone writing them in a song.
This guy took on United Airlines for breaking his $3600 Taylor guitar. Very catchy tune.

Before The Storm
Red gates of iron cast their Black shadows on this land Dividing souls... far below The gathering winds the armies watch Are rising from the west Foretelling news... of freedom’s hand In secrecy they’ve infiltrated All of our strongholds Controlling more... year after year So we’ve let this happen all along Believing what’s been said Our leaders cry... we have no one to fear We watch the sun rise, and hope We watch the sun rise, and hope That it won’t be our last Before the storm Before the storm Before the storm Before the storm Is it late to try, must we all die Our system awaits testv freedom by choice... Is it for all men, best So we wait in fear the atom split Our hearts in two be torn Learn from the past... before the storm We watch the sunrise, and hope We watch the sunrise, and hope That it won’t be our last |

I love this song but never actually read the lyrics before.
"Back 2 Good"
It's nothing, it's so normal you Just stand there I could say so much But I don't go there cuz I don't want to I was thinking if you were lonely Maybe we could leave here and no one would know At least not to the point that we would think so Everyone here, knows everyone here is thinking about Somebody else It's best if we all keep it under our heads I couldn't tell, if anyone here was feeling the way I do But I'm lonely now, and I don't know how To get it back to good This don't mean that, you own me This ain't no good, in fact it's phony as hell But things worked out just like you wanted too If you see me out you don't know me Try to turn your head, try to give me some room To figure out just what I'm going to do And everyone here, hates everyone here for doing just like They do It's best if we all keep this quiet instead And I couldn't tell, why everyone here was doing me like They do But I'm sorry now, and I don't know how To get it back to good Everyone here, is wondering what it's like to be with Somebody else Everyone here's to blame, everyone here Gets caught up in the pleasure of the pain, everyone hides Shades of shame, but looking inside we're the same, we're The same And we're all grown now, but we don't know how To get it back to good Everyone here, knows everyone here is thinking 'bout Somebody else It's best if we all keep this under our heads I couldn't tell, if anyone here was feeling the way I do But it's over now, and I don't know how, it's over now There's no getting back to good Matchbox 20 |

Miss independent
Miss self-sufficient Miss keep your distance Miss unafraid Miss out of my way Miss don't let a man interfere, no Miss on her own Miss almost grown Miss never let a man help her off her throne So, by keeping her heart protected She'll never, ever feel rejected Little miss apprehensive Said ooh, she fell in love What is this feeling taking over? Thinking no one could open the door Surprise, it's time, to feel what's real What happened to miss independent's no longer need to be defensive? Goodbye, old you, when love, is true Misguided heart Miss play it smart Miss if you wanna use that line, you better not start, no But she miscalculated She didn't wanna end up jaded And this miss decided not to miss out on true love So, by changing a misconception She went in a new direction And found inside, she felt a connection She fell in love What is this feeling taking over? Thinking no one could open the door Surprise, it's time, to feel what's real What happened to miss independent's no longer need to be defensive? Goodbye, old you, when love, is true (when love, is true) When miss independent walked away No time for love that came her way She looked in the mirror and thought today What happened to miss no longer afraid? It took some time for her to see How beautiful love could truly be No more talk of why can't that be me I'm so glad I've finally seen What is this feeling taking over? Thinking no one could open the door Surprise, it's time, to feel what's real What happened to miss independent's no longer need to be defensive? Goodbye, old you, when love, is true (when love, is true) Miss Independent--Kelly Clarkson

I run from pain
I run from prejudice I run from pessimists But I run too late I run my life Or is it running me Run from my past I run too fast Or too slow it seems When lies become the truth That’s when I run to you This world keeps spinning faster Into a new disaster so I run to you I run to you baby And when it all starts coming undone Baby you’re the only one I run to I run to you We run on fumes Your life and mine Like the sands of time Slippin’ right on through And our love’s the only truth That’s why I run to you --Lady Antebellum

You Know Better - Tina Dico
It's late in the afternoon The light falls through the window It's draws a cross Above my bed Where you're on a different moon Where violent winds blow with no course Inside your head You think there may be something wrong with you To make you doubt your love like this Well, I guess I'm singing out this song to you To let you know I think there is But you know better than me You know better than anyone You know better than me You know better than me "Maybe it's selfishness" you say "All the promise I've broken thoughtlesly I know that's no way to live" "Or maybe it's mere distress" I say "Fear to let anyone close enough to see That you've got nothing to give?" You say you need to travel far away To make you think of something else Well, I think you'd find out if you dared to stay That far away is a place inside yourself But you know better than me You know better than anyone You know better than me You know better than me Oh, did you ever place a bet? Did you ever gamble anything for love? What you give is what you get And now you know it's not enough You say you need to travel far away To make you think of something else Well, I think you'd find out if you dared to stay That far away is a place inside yourself But you know better than me You know better than anyone You know better than me You know better than me of course it is much better sung, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3TSW1...ext=1&index=47 |
