WAR

By Bob Marley

Until the philosophy which hold one race superior

And another

Inferior

Is finally

And permanently

Discredited

And abandoned -

Everywhere is war -

Me say war.

That until there no longer

First class and second class citizens of any nation

Until the colour of a mans skin

Is of no more significance than the colour of his eyes -

Me say war.

That until the basic human rights

Are equally guaranteed to all,

Without regard to race -

Dis a war.

That until that day

The dream of lasting peace,

World citizenship

Rule of international morality

Will remain in but a fleeting illusion to be pursued,

But never attained -

Now everywhere is war - war.

And until the ignoble and unhappy regimes

That hold our brothers in angola,

In mozambique,

South africa

Sub-human bondage

Have been toppled,

Utterly destroyed -

Well, everywhere is war -

Me say war.

War in the east,

War in the west,

War up north,

War down south -

War - war -

Rumours of war.

And until that day,

The african continent

Will not know peace,

We africans will fight - we find it necessary -

And we know we shall win

As we are confident

In the victory

Of good over evil -

Good over evil, yeah!

Good over evil -

Good over evil, yeah!

Good over evil -

Good over evil, yeah! /fadeout/

Both Sides Now, by Joni Mitchell

Rows and flows of angel hair

And ice cream castles in the air

And feather canyons everywhere

I've looked at clouds that way

But now they only block the sun

They rain and snow on everyone

So many things I would have done

But clouds got in my way

I've looked at clouds from both sides now

From up and down, and still somehow

It's cloud illusions I recall

I really don't know clouds at all

Moons and Junes and Ferris wheels

The dizzy dancing way you feel

As ev'ry fairy tale comes real

I've looked at love that way

But now it's just another show

You leave 'em laughing when you go

And if you care, don't let them know

Don't give yourself away

I've looked at love from both sides now

From give and take, and still somehow

It's love's illusions I recall

I really don't know love at all

Tears and fears and feeling proud

To say "I love you" right out loud

Dreams and schemes and circus crowds

I've looked at life that way

But now old friends are acting strange

They shake their heads, they say I've changed

Well something's lost, but something's gained

In living every day

I've looked at life from both sides now

From win and lose and still somehow

It's life's illusions I recall

I really don't know life at all

I've looked at life from both sides now

From up and down, and still somehow

It's life's illusions I recall

I really don't know life at all

That's The Way- Led Zeppelin

I don't know how I'm gonna tell you, I can't play with you no more.

I don't know how I'm gonna do what mama told me, my friend, the boy next door.

I can't believe what people saying, you're gonna let your hair hang down,

I'm satisfied to sit here working all day long, you're in the darker side of town.

And when I'm out I see you walking, why don't your eyes see me?

Could it be you've found another game to play, what did mama say to me?

That's the way, oh, that's the way it oughta be, yeah, yeah.

Mama said that's the way it oughta stay, yeah, yeah, ooh, ooh.

And yesterday I saw you standing by the river,

And weren't those tears that filled your eyes?

And all the fish that lay in dirty water dying,

Had they got you hypnotized?

And yesterday I saw you kissing tiny flowers,

But all that lives is born to die.

And so I say to you that nothing really matters,

And all you do is stand and cry.

I don't know what to say about it,

When all your ears are turned away.

But now's the time to look and look again at what you see,

Is that the way it ought to stay?

That's the way... That's the way it oughta be, oh don't you know now?

Mama said, mama said... that's the way it's gonna stay, yeah.

Going To California - Led Zeppelin

Spent my days with a woman unkind,

Smoked my stuff and drank all my wine.

Made up my mind to make a new start,

Going to California with an aching in my heart.

Someone told me there's a girl out there

With love in her eyes and flowers in her hair.

Took my chances on a big jet plane,

Never let them tell you that they're all the same.

The sea was red and the sky was grey,

Wondered how tomorrow could ever follow today.

The mountains and the canyons started to tremble and shake

As the children of the sun began to awake. Watch out..

Seems that the wrath of the gods

Got a punch on the nose and it started to flow;

I think I might be sinking.

Throw me a line if I reach it in time

I'll meet you up there where the path

Runs straight and high.

To find a queen without a king;

They say she plays guitar and cries and sings.

La la la la..

Ride a white mare in the footsteps of dawn

Trying to find a woman whos never, never, never been born.

Standing on a hill in my mountain of dreams,

Telling myself its not as hard, hard, hard as it seems.

Ozzy Osbourne - No More Tears

The light in the window is a crack in the sky

A stairway to darkness in the blink of an eye

A levee of tears to learn she'll never be coming back

The man in the dark will bring another attack

Your momma told you that you're not supposed to talk to strangers

Look in the mirror tell me do you think your life's in danger here ya

No more tears

Another day passes as the night closes in

The red light goes on to say it's time to begin

I see the man around the corner waiting does to see me ?

I close my eyes and wait to hear the sound of someone screaming here

No more tears

So now that it's over can't we just say good-bye?

I'd like to move an and make the most of the night

Maybe a kiss before I leave you this way

Your lips are so cold Idon't know what else to say

I never wanted it to end this way my love my darling

Believe me when I say to you in love I think I'm falling here

No more tears

Dig for Fire

By Pixies

There's this old woman

She lives down the road

You can often find her

Kneeling inside of her hole

And i often ask her

"Are you looking for the motherlode?"

Huh?

No?

No my child, this is not my desire

And then she said

I'm digging for fire [4x]

There is this old man

Who spent so much of his life sleeping

That he is able to keep awake for the rest of his years

He resides

On a beach

In a town

Where i am going to live

And i often ask him

"Are you looking for the motherlode?"

Huh?

No?

No my child, this is not my desire

And then he said

I'm digging for fire [4x]

My interpretation of this song is of a young man trying to understand why his elders are working at tasks that bring them no monetary gain. They're trying to tell him that they're working toward enlightenment, that the intangible can be worth so much more than silver and gold. This song was a hell of an inspiration for the high school version of Nightgaunt.

"Fade" - Crazy Anglos

I've seen the wise teach lies, hell they taught me to bend,

I'm jumpin any false trend witha devilish grin,

so defend and meet fate on the shakiest grounds and build mounds of sick sounds in the darkest of towns,

now get down or freak let it lose in the streets and just beat/beat the elite cuz they all just cheats,

And I can't seem to get this out of my head

Lets subtract and see this cotastraphy, more shut down from the blasphemy,

or stomped out from the acts, and the world wont stop till they're trashing me

until then I will fade...say what say what say what..fade...and you will never break me

I've seen the wise teach lies and set them in heads, scattered shattered like

the glass thats inbed instead, go pretend to make life circle/circle me still,

these fallen stars from the skies rollng over the hills,and spill/spill like this feel

cause its more then they seem, these broken ties and these lies that they are telling me...

and I can't seem to ge this out of my head

Lets subtract and see this catastraphy, more shut down from the blasphemy,

or stomped out from the acts, and the world wont stop till they're trashing me

until then I will fade...say what say what say what..fade...and you will never break me

Don't bend, dont break dont bust, fade outta time cuz its life we trust

hold on , yeah i know its tough but the whole things coming like its monsterous

in responce to us its a constant gust, blowing trees like the breeze now they on to us

and i cant seem...to get this outta my head

It's a classic. Even corny, considering where I'm at (a goth board. really?), but uh...

Bach's Toccata en Fugue. If that isn't aural transcendence, I don't know what is.

One time I fell asleep with that cassette (yes, it was a long time ago) on, and when that song came on, I heard it in my dream. It was a really weird dream.

Another classic

Franz Schubert - Piano Trio No 2 in E flat major

been in love with this one for 20 years now, and it still "feels" the same

By Donovan

The lock upon my garden gate's a snail, that's what it is.

The lock upon my garden gate's a snail, that's what it is.

First there is a mountain, then there is no mountain, then there is.

First there is a mountain, then there is no mountain, then there is.

The caterpillar sheds his skin to find a butterfly within.

Caterpillar sheds his skin to find a butterfly within.

First there is a mountain, then there is no mountain, then there is.

First there is a mountain, then there is no mountain.

Oh Wanita, oh Wanita, oh Wanita, I call your name.

Oh, the snow will be a blinding sight to see as it lies on yonder hillside.

The lock upon my garden gate's a snail, that's what it is.

The lock upon my garden gate's a snail, that's what it is.

Caterpillar sheds his skin to find a butterfly within.

Caterpillar sheds his skin to find a butterfly within.

Ah, my-my.

First there is a mountain, then there is no mountain, then there is.

First there is a mountain, then there is no mountain, then there is.

First there is a mountain, then there is no mountain, then there is.

First there is a mountain, then there is no mountain, then there is.

First there is a mountain

Look on yonder misty mountain

See the young monk meditating rhododendron forest

Over dusty years, I ask you

What's it been like being you ?

Through all levels you've been changing

Getting a little bit better no doubt,

The doctor bit was so far out.

Looking through crystal spectacles,

I can see I had your fun.

Doing us paperback reader

Made the teacher suspicious about insanity,

Fingers always touching girl.

Through all levels you've been changing

Getting a little bit better no doubt,

The doctor bit was so far out.

Looking through all kinds of windows

I can see I had your fun.

Looking through all kinds of windows

I can see I had your fun.

Looking through crystal spectacles

I can see I had your fun.

Looking through crystal spectacles

I can see I had your fun.

Rebelling against society,

Such a tiny speculating whether to be a hip or

Skip along quite merrily.

Through all levels you've been changing

Elevator in the brain hotel

Broken down a-just as well-a

Looking through crystal spectacles,

Ah, I can see I had your fun.

Dum dum dum, dum dum dum dum dum

Dum dum dum, dum dum dum dum dum

Dum dum dum, dum dum dum dum dum

Dum dum dum, dum dum dum dum dum

Dum dum dum, dum dum dum dum dum

Catch The Wind

^free link included^

By Donovan

In the chilly hours and minutes,

Of uncertainty, I want to be,

In the warm hold of your loving mind.

To feel you all around me,

And to take your hand, along the sand,

Ah, but I may as well try and catch the wind.

When sundown pales the sky,

I wanna hide a while, behind your smile,

And everywhere I'd look, your eyes I'd find.

For me to love you now,

Would be the sweetest thing, 'twould make me sing,

Ah, but I may as well, try and catch the wind.

When rain has hung the leaves with tears,

I want you near, to kill my fears

To help me to leave all my blues behind.

For standin' in your heart,

Is where I want to be, and I long to be,

Ah, but I may as well, try and catch the wind.

Dogs - Pink Floyd

You gotta be crazy, you gotta have a real need

You gotta sleep on your toes, and when you're on the street

You gotta be able to pick out the easy meat with your eyes closed

And then moving in silently, down wind and out of sight

You gotta strike when the moment is right without thinking.

And after a while, you can work on points for style

Like the club tie, and the firm handshake

A certain look in the eye, and an easy smile

You have to be trusted by the people that you lie to

So that when they turn their backs on you

You'll get the chance to put the knife in.

You gotta keep one eye looking over your shoulder

You know it's going to get harder, and harder, and harder as you get older

And in the end you'll pack up, fly down south

Hide your head in the sand

Just another sad old man

All alone and dying of cancer.

And when you loose control, you'll reap the harvest that you've sown

And as the fear grows, the bad blood slows and turns to stone

And it's too late to loose the weight you used to need to throw around

So have a good drown, as you go down, alone

Dragged down by the stone.

I gotta admit that I'm a little bit confused

Sometimes it seems to me as if I'm just being used

Gotta stay awake, gotta try and shake off this creeping malaise

If I don't stand my own ground, how can I find my way out of this maze?

Deaf, dumb, and blind, you just keep on pretending

That everyone's expendable and no-one has a real friend

And it seems to you the thing to do would be to isolate the winner

And everythings done under the sun

And you believe at heart, everyone's a killer.

Who was born in a house full of pain

Who was trained not to spit in the fan

Who was told what to do by the man

Who was broken by trained personnel

Who was fitted with collar and chain

Who was given a pat on the back

Who was breaking away from the pack

Who was only a stranger at home

Who was ground down in the end

Who was found dead on the phone

Who was dragged down by the stone.

Wots...uh the Deal - Pink Floyd

Heaven sent the promised land

Looks alright from where I stand

Cause I'm the man on the outside looking in

Waiting on the first step

Show where the key is kept

Point me down the right line because it's time

To let me in from the cold

Turn my lead into gold

Cause there's chill wind blowing in my soul

And I think I'm growing old

Flash the readies

Wot's...uh the deal?

Got to make to the next meal

Try to keep up with the turning of the wheel.

Mile after mile

Stone after stone

Turn to speak but you're alone

Million mile from home you're on your own

So let me in from the cold

Turn my lead into gold

Cause there's chill wind blowing in my soul

And I think I'm growing old

Fire bright by candlelight

And her by my side

And if she prefers we will never stir again

Someone said the promised land

And I grabbed it with both hands

Now I'm the man on the inside looking out

Hear me shout "Come on in,

What's the news and where you been?"

Cause there's no wind left in my soul

And I've grown old

Tow Suns in teh Sunset - Pink Floyd

In my rear view mirror the sun is going down

Sinking behind bridges in the road

And I think of all the good things

That we have left undone

And I suffer premonitions

Confirm suspicions

Of the holocaust to come.

The wire that holds the cork

That keeps the anger in

Gives way

And suddenly it's day again.

The sun is in the east

Even though the day is done.

Two suns in the sunset

Hmmmmmmmmmm

Could be the human race is run.

Like the moment when the brakes lock

And you slide towards the big truck

"Oh no!"

"[scream] Daddy, Daddy!"

You stretch the frozen moments with your fear.

And you'll never hear their voices

And you'll never see their faces

You have no recourse to the law anymore.

And as the windshield melts

My tears evaporate

Leaving only charcoal to defend.

Finally I understand the feelings of the few.

Ashes and diamonds

Foe and friend

We were all equal in the end.

"...and now the weather. Tomorrow will be cloudy with scattered showers

spreading from the east ... with an expected high of 4000 degrees

Celsius"

I love rocking out to this song...doesn't have anything to do with my life, I just think its a good song. It's got a good beat

What Have You Done - Within Temptation

I know I better stop trying

You know that there's no denying

I won't show mercy on you now

I know I should stop beleiving

I know that there's no retreating

It's over now

What have you done?

What have you done now?

I've been waiting for someone like you

But now you are slipping away

(what have you done now?)

Why? Why does fate make us suffer?

There's a curse between us

Between me and you

What have you done?

Would you mind if I killed you?

Would you mind if I tryed to cause you have

Turned into my worst enemy?

You carry hate that I feel

It's over now

What have you done?

What have you done now?

I've been waiting for someone like you

But now you are slipping away

(what have you done now?)

Why? why does fate make us suffer?

There's a curse between us

Between me and you

What have you done?

I've been fool

Won't let it go

We will be free when it ends

I've been waiting for someone like you

But now you are slipping away

(what have you done now?)

Why? why does fate make us suffer?

There's a curse between us

Between me and you
