    On white horses let me ride away
    To my world of dreams so far away
    Let me run
    To the sun

    To a world my heart can understand
    It's a gentle, warm and wonder land
    Far away
    Stars away

    Where the clouds are made of candyfloss
    As the day's born
    When the stars are gone
    We'll race to meet the dawn

    So when I can only see the grey
    Of a sad and very lonely day
    That's when I
    Softly sigh
    On white horses
    Snowy white horses
    Let me ride away

    I see, a little sun, coming over the horizon,
    You know, and I know,
    That love is all.

    (Chorus)

    I won`t close my eyes
    To the sufferers plight.
    In a world full of sadness
    I won`t turn off my light.

    Our cries for justice are shots in the dark
    But our strength`s in our bite
    And not in our bark
    It`s time to stand
    And shout it out loud
    And the louder we scream
    The sweeter the sound.

    (Chorus)

    We`re shown no respect
    But that can`t break our pride,
    When our backs to the wall
    We won`t run and we won`t hide
    It`s time to stand, face the oncoming crowd
    And the louder we scream
    The sweeter the sound.

    (Chorus)

    I wont`t close my eyes
    When the future don`t look bright
    Though the road seems too long
    I won`t turn off my light
    In a world full of darkness,
    I won`t turn off my light.

    Come as you like
    Bearing smiles or screams or backdoor dreams babe
    as you like
    Come as you like
    Smoking fools and pipes or making faces
    as you like
    It's been cold
    Flying on a power in the breeze
    Prayed so much you nearly lost your knees
    The story's old
    Trying to be a harmony when
    someone comes crashing into me, yeah
    Come as you like...you like
    Come as you like
    I've got curious ears and a cozy mind
    So let's curl up some time
    Come as you like
    I'll just winnow me down
    I won't close my eyes
    So let your kisses fly
    It's been cold
    Flying on a power in the breeze
    Prayed so much you nearly lost your knees
    The story's old
    Trying to be a harmony when
    someone comes crashing into me, yeah
    Come as you like, yeah
    You, you
    Come as you like, yeah
    Your life
    You...your life, your life, your life...baby
    It's been cold
    Flying on a power in the breeze
    Prayed so much you nearly lost your knees
    The story's old
    Trying to be a harmony when
    someone comes crashing into me, yeah
    Come as you like, yeah
    You, you
    Come as you like, yeah
    You, you

    Domestic violence is one of the last great taboos, especially in the Asian community. British justice has historically been lenient towards male perpetrators but extremely harsh on those women who have been forced to take extreme measures in order to escape abusive situations. One of these women is Zoora Shah and this song is dedicated to her and others in her situation.

    A Thousand Broken Mirrors
    A scream a shout far in the distance
    Maybe the first or second floor
    Curtains colouring the windows
    Never see behind closed doors
    A silent siege behind politeness
    Domestic harmony for show
    Lost in the mirage of a marriage
    Outside a world she'll never know
    And as I see through the real you
    I'm falling Straight into
    A Thousand broken Mirrors
    I can't hide
    And outside the bright lights
    Can't hide the pain inside
    And I've broken a thousand mirrors
    Now it's time(x 4)
    Loving her children with a passion
    Protecting them at any cost
    Taking the only course of action
    There's no more bridges left to cross
    Who are the ones that are the guilty?
    Who are the ones that bear the scar?
    We must not leave our sisters bleeding
    We sing this song for Tsoora Shah
    And as I see through the real you
    I'm falling Straight into
    A Thousand broken Mirrors
    I can't hide
    And outside the bright lights
    Can't hide the pain inside
    And I've broken a thousand mirrors
    Now it's time(x 4)

    tricky

    Fuck you in
    Suck you in
    Tuck you in
    I enjoy myself within myself and back again
    Encouraging [??]
    I am she who stinks of men
    Gritty teeth, fists are clutching,
    breast stroke, lots of touching
    There'll be big fun up at my hotel, motel
    I'll fuck you in the ass
    Just for a laugh
    With the quick speed
    I'll make your nose bleed
    I ride the premenstral cycle
    Forget about the michael
    Here's the big blast
    I like the big cash
    I hits the big grass
    i'll spray you straight through
    I spray your trade troops
    He hit me one time
    He hit me two times
    You hit me thrice..
    Because it's Tryzasnice

    Chalk Dust Torture - Phish
    Come stumble my mirth beaten worker
    I'm Jezmund the family berzerker
    I'm bought for the price of a flagon of rice
    The wind buffs the cabin
    You speak of your life
    Or more willingly Locust the Lurker

    Confuse what you can of the ending
    And revise your despise so impending
    'Cause I soak on the wrath
    That you didn't quite mask
    I'm getting it clearly through alternate paths
    Or mixed in with the signal you're sending

    But who can unlearn all the facts that I've learned
    As I sat in their chairs and my synapses burned
    And the torture of chalk dust collects on my tongue
    Thoughts follow my vision and dance in the sun
    All my vasoconstrictors they come slowly undone
    Can't this wait till im Old?
    Can't I live while I'm young?

    But no peace for Jezmund tonight
    I plug the distress tube up tight
    And watch what I say as it flutters away
    And all this emotion is kept harmless at bay
    Not to educate somebody's fright

    - Anastasio

    Oppskrift for Herrefolk ("Recipe for a Master Race", Mari Boine Persen, English lyrics from Sami)

    Draw boundaries on the map
    And call it The State
    Be King Minister
    Protector and Father
    Send bailiffs and businessmen
    Priests and soldiers
    To the people who own
    The land you take

    Use bible and booze
    And bayonet
    Break promises and agreements
    Be a diplomat
    Use articles of law
    Against ancient rights
    Create prejudice
    Discrimination
    And hate

    Let no one question your authority
    That's how you suppress a minority

    Let language and culture
    Take their place in the museum
    As research object
    And tourist attraction
    Give lively speeches
    On each festive occasion
    Let it disintegrate and die
    That which was a nation

    Let no one question your authority
    That's how you suppress a minority

    Albatross, Floater

    "I love to fly... It's just a long, peace and quiet,
    Nothing around you but clear, blue sky.
    No one to hassle you, no one to tell you where to go, or what to do.
    The only bad part about flying is having to come back down to the fucking world."


    Slowly, the albatross comes down.
    And witless, his body meets the ground.
    And like him I find peace,
    Like him I get release,
    As the bastard son of all that's turned out wrong.

    Well, you've got a lot to tease me about,
    well, I'm just lucky, I guess.
    Ain't nobody talkin' bout the clothes I've been wearin',
    Well, take it from me I've been blessed.

    And I've seen the desolation all their attention brings.
    And I learned my lesson at the back of the classroom.
    If your voice is a loud one, try not to say anything.

    So won't you please be gentle with this one?
    He's meek and he's meek and he's mild, messianic child.
    Can't you see he's hopelessly bold?
    He's bought and he's sold,
    And there's more than he's told.

    And when everything turns out wrong,
    He knows it'll be alright.
    I'm the bastard son of all that's wrong.

    And I've seen the desolation all their attention brings.
    And I learned my lesson at the back of the classroom.
    If your voice is a loud one, you'll never stop screaming.

    Well there's been so many days you have shouted it down to them,
    Searching the ground for a good place to land again.
    And you've been drifing in the meantime,
    Aching in the meantime.
    You know we albatross are made to fly not land...
    You know we albatross are made to fly not land...
    You know we albatross are made to fly not land...
    And you'll never stop screaming.

    Just a little addictive?

    You should be able to save the mp3's, too, if any of those ring a bell.

    I think the videos are a bit funny; they're obviously intended for industry promotion (as opposed to consumer promotion).

    But yeah ... "King Rabbit" became an anthem. They played that for ... oh, a year, at least, before it was released on an album.

    If you like The Doors, there is a cover of "Waiting for the Sun" that I can dig up for you ... it's off Burning Sosobra, and never fails to smash a live crowd.

    Pearl Jam.....The New And Improved Women Behind The Counter.......

    I seem to recognize your face.
    Haunting familiar, yet I can't seem to place it.
    Cannot find the candle of thought to light your name.
    Lifetimes are catching up with me.
    All these changes taking place.
    I wish I'd seen the place but no one's ever taken me.

    Hearts and thoughts they fade, fade away.

    I swear I recognize your breath.
    Memories, like fingerprints, are slowly raising.
    Me you wouldn't recall for I'm not my former.
    It's hard when your stuck upon the shelf.
    I changed by not changing at all.
    Small town predicts my fate.
    Perhaps that's what no one wants to see.
    I just want to scream, 'Hello.'
    My god its been so long. Never dreamed you'd return.
    But now here you are and here I am.
    Hearts and thoughts they fade away.

    UB40 - I'm Not Fooled So Easily


    I`ve been listening to what you said
    And wondering if it could be true
    If it`s as bad as you say out there
    I`ll leave the going out to you

    (Chorus)

    I`m not believing all I see
    Fabrications on T.V.
    Distort the news, feed us your views
    I`m not fooled so easily

    Statistics prove its not too bright
    To walk the darker streets at night
    Or to talk to people you don`t know
    My worlds become a horror show

    (Chorus)

    I`m not believing all I see
    Fabrications on T.V.
    Distort the news, feed us your views
    I`m not fooled so easily

    There`s a murder in my living room
    My child is watching avidly
    Should I venture out to-night
    Tomorrow he`ll be watching me

    (Chorus)

    I`m not believing all I see
    Fabrications on T.V.
    Distort the news, feed us your views
    I`m not fooled so easily

    You pay your money take your choice
    But every channel plays the same
    The audience hears his master`s voice
    Keeps him scared and keeps him tame

    (Chorus)

    I`m not believing all I see
    Fabrications on T.V.
    Distort the news, feed us your views
    I`m not fooled so easily

    Dis lui toi que je t’aime
    Ou programme moi sur i.b.m.
    Je n’aimerai pas le blesser
    J’me rends compte que pour compte nous l’avons laissé
    Dis lui toi que je t’aime
    Et qu’il se branche sur la f.m.
    Alors il pourra me capter
    Ou bien c’est qu’il est complètement dijoncté
    Je n’peux pas les yeux dans les yeux
    Balancer ça
    Il ne me me croirait pas
    Je n’veux pas annoncer la couleur
    Entre toi et moi
    Je vois l’émoi
    Quand il comprendra sa douleur
    Je n’sais pas
    Ce que tu dois
    Faire pour ítre le seul double de moi
    Dis lui toi que je t’aime
    C’est toujours le míme dilemme
    Un jour ou toujours qui sait
    Combien de mois d’émoi cela va durer
    Dis lui toi que je t’aime
    Entre l’amour l’amour et la haine
    Questions de pleins et de déliés
    Qui sait combien de temps cela va durer
    Dis lui redis lui quand míme
    Dédie lui ce poème
    C’est le never more jamais à plus jamais
    Dis lui toi que je t’aime
    Bien sûr on en revient au míme
    Thème insoluble c’est vrai
    C’est toi que j’aime
    C’est toi que j’aime
    Pour de vrai

    "Fearless" by Pink Floyd. I'm usually more attracted to sad and dark songs, but this is my all-time favorite. Never fails to put a smile on my face...


    You say the hill's too steep to climb,
    Climb it!
    You say you'd like to see me try,
    Climb it!
    You pick the place and I'll choose the time
    And I'll climb
    The hill in my own way
    Just wait a while, for the right day
    And as I rise above the treeline and the clouds
    I look down hear the sound of the things you said today
    Fearlessly the idiot faced the crowd, smiling
    Emotionless the magistrate turns 'round, frowning
    And who's the fool who wears the crown
    Go down in your own way
    And everyday is the right day
    And as you rise above the fearlines in the frown
    You look down
    Hear the sound of the faces in the crowd

    Finch ~ Ender

    Here i am beside myself again,
    I'm torn apart by words that you have said.
    And all in all,
    I know were falling apart.
    Where did you run to so far away.

    Here we are to sing you a song.
    And there you are asleep against the window pane,
    just like always.

    You said you like to hear the rain sometimes.
    And all I can do is tell you the truth.
    And oh, my eyes will tell you the same.

    Here we are to sing you a song.
    There you are asleep again.
    Grasp our hands together,
    we feel we are one result.
    And here we are to sing you a song.
    and there you are asleep again.

    grasp our hands together, we feel we are one result.
    grasp our hands together, we feel we are one result.
    grasp our hands together, we feel we are one result.
    grasp our hands together, we feel we are one result.
    grasp our hands toghether we feel we are one result.

    grasp our hands together, we feel we are one result.
    grasp our hands together, we feel we are one result


    Taking Back Sunday ~ There's No "I" In Team

    Well I can't regret,
    can't you just forget it?
    I started something I couldn't finish
    And if we go down,
    we go down together
    best friends means,
    well best friends means

    And I've got a twenty-dollar bill
    that says you're up late night starting
    fist fights versus fences in your backyard
    Wearing your black eye like a badge of honor
    Soaking in sympathy
    from friends who never loved you
    nearly half as much as me

    Broken down in bars and bathrooms
    All I did was what I had to
    Don't believe me when I tell you
    it's just what anyone would do
    Take the time to talk about it
    Think a lot and live without it
    Don't believe me when I tell you
    it's something unforgivable...ohoh

    Well I can't regret,
    can't you just forget it?
    I started something I couldn't finish
    If we go down,
    we go down together
    best friends means,
    well best friends means

    You never knew
    well i never told you...
    Everything I know about breaking hearts
    I learned from you, it's true
    I've never done it with the style and grace you have
    But I've made long term plans
    based on these mistakes

    Broken down in bars and bathrooms
    All I did was what I had to
    Don't believe me when I tell you
    it's just what anyone would do
    Take the time to talk about it
    Think a lot and live without it
    Don't believe me when I tell you
    it's something unforgivable

    Is this what you call tact?
    I swear you're as subtle as a brick in the small of my back
    so let's end this call,
    and end this conversation
    there's nothing worse...
    (that's right he said, that's right he said it)
    I swear, you have no idea
    The jealousy that became me thinking
    (that's right he said)
    that you always had it way too easy

    Broken down in bars and bathrooms
    All I did was what I had to
    Don't believe me when I tell you
    it's just what anyone would do
    Take the time to talk about it
    Think a lot and live without it
    Don't believe me when I tell you
    it's something unforgivable

    Best friends means I pulled the trigger
    Best friends means you get what you deserve
    Best friends means I pulled the trigger
    Best friends means you get what you deserve
    Best friends means I pulled the trigger
    Best friends means you get what you deserve
    Best friends means I pulled the trigger
    Best friends means you get what you deserve
    Best friends means I pulled the trigger
    Best friends means you get what you deserve

    Best friend thinks I pulled the trigger!!!
    Best friend thinks you get what you deserve!!!

    Stash - Phish
    I'm pulling the pavement from under my nails
    I brush past a garden, dependent on whales
    The sloping companion I cast down the ash
    Yanked on my tunic and dangled my stash

    Zipping through the forest with the curdling fleas
    To grow with them spindles, the mutant I seize
    I capture the dread beast who falls to his knees
    And cries to his cohorts, asleep in the trees

    Smegma, dogmatagram, fishmarket stew
    Police in a corner, gunnin' for you
    Appletoast, bedheated, furblanket rat
    Laugh when they shoot you, say
    "Please don't do that"

    Control for smilers can't be bought
    The solar garlic starts to rot
    Was it for this my life I sought?
    Maybe so and maybe not (Maybe so and maybe not)
    Was it for this my life I sought? (Maybe so and maybe not)
    Control for smilers can't be bought (Maybe so and maybe not)
    The solar garlic starts to rot (Maybe so and maybe not)
    Was it for this my life I sought? (Maybe so and maybe not)

    My friend, My friend - Phish
    My friend, my friend he's got a knife
    A statement from his former life
    When he was easy but alone
    Beside him was an empty throne
    But what of silver silken blade
    Affix his gaze, his features staid
    Grasps the handle, clips the cable
    One steps up, sits at his table
    My friend, my friend, he's got a knife
    My friend, my friend, he's got a wife

    My friend, my friend, the clever ruse
    Persuasion through his thoughts peruse
    A hidden relic from his past
    That wasn't there when he looked last
    He feels it ticking like a bomb
    Feeding fear, assaulting calm
    Takes the object, starts the game
    Moves closer to the flame

    My friend, my friend, the clever ruse
    My friend, my friend, he lights the fuse

    My friend, my friend, he's got a knife
    My friend, my friend, he's got a knife
    My friend, my friend, he's got a knife

    If I Were a Rich Man - Fiddler on the Roof

    (SPOKEN

    Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image!

    Dear God, you made many, many poor people. I realize, of course, that
    it's no great shame to be poor... but it's no great honor, either. So what would have
    been the difference if I had... a small fortune?

    If I were a rich man,
    Daidle deedle daidle
    Daidle daidle deedle daidle dum
    All day long I'd biddy-biddy-bum
    If I were a wealthy man.
    I wouldn't have to work hard,
    Daidle deedle daidle
    Daidle daidle deedle daidle dum
    If I were a biddy-biddy rich,
    Daidle deedle daidle daidle man.

    I'd build a big tall house with rooms by the dozen
    Right in the middle of the town,
    A fine tin roof with real wooden floors below.
    There would be one long staircase just going up
    And one even longer coming down,
    And one more leading nowhere, just for show.

    I'd fill my yard with chicks and turkeys and geese
    And ducks for the town to see and hear,
    Squawking just as noisily as they can,
    And each loud "pa-pa-geeee! pa-pa-gaack! pa-pa-geeee! pa-pa-gaack!"
    Would land like a trumpet on the ear,
    As if to say, "Here lives a wealthy man."
    Oy!

    If I were a rich man,
    Daidle deedle daidle
    Daidle daidle deedle daidle dum
    All day long I'd biddy-biddy-bum
    If I were a wealthy man.
    I wouldn't have to work hard,
    Daidle deedle daidle
    Daidle daidle deedle daidle dum
    If I were a biddy-biddy rich,
    Daidle deedle daidle daidle man.

    I see my wife, my Golde, looking like a rich man's wife,
    With a proper double chin,
    Supervising meals to her heart's delight.
    I see her putting on airs and strutting like a peacock,
    Oy! What a happy mood she's in,
    Screaming at the servants day and night.

    The most important men in town will come to fawn on me--
    They will ask me to advise them,
    Like a Solomon the Wise--
    "If you please, Reb Tevye?"--
    "Pardon me, Reb Tevye?"--
    Posing problems that would cross a rabbi's eyes--
    (chanting) Ya va voy, ya va voy voy vum...
    And it won't make one bit of difference
    If I answer right or wrong--
    When you're rich, they think you really know.

    If I were rich, I'd have the time that I lack
    To sit in the synagogue and pray,
    And maybe have a seat by the Eastern wall,
    And I'd discuss the learned books with the holy men
    Seven hours every day--
    That would be the sweetest thing of all...
    Oy!

    If I were a rich man,
    Daidle deedle daidle
    Daidle daidle deedle daidle dum
    All day long I'd biddy-biddy-bum
    If I were a wealthy man.
    I wouldn't have to work hard,
    Daidle deedle daidle
    Daidle daidle deedle daidle dum
    Lord who made the lion and the lamb,
    You decreed I should be what I am--
    Would it spoil some vast, eternal plan,
    If I were a wealthy man?

    the cure

    'Show me Show me Show me how you do that trick
    The one that makes me scream' she said
    'The one that makes me laugh' she said
    And threw her arms around my neck
    'Show me how you do it
    And I promise you I promise that
    I'll run away with you
    I'll run away with you'

    Spinning on that dizzy edge
    I kissed her face and kissed her head
    And dreamed of all the different ways I had
    To make her glow
    'Why are you so far away?' she said
    'Why won't you ever know that I'm in love with you
    That I'm in love with you'

    You
    Soft and only
    You
    Lost and lonely
    You
    Strange as angels
    Dancing in the deepest oceans
    Twisting in the water
    You're just like a dream

    Daylight licked me into shape
    I must have been asleep for days
    And moving lips to breathe her name
    I opened up my eyes
    And found myself alone alone
    Alone above a raging sea
    That stole the only girl I loved
    And drowned her deep inside of me

    You
    Soft and only
    You
    Lost and lonely
    You
    Just like heaven
