we are not saviors of the world
we are as selfish as word i
we learned to dance another day
and to grow from our mistakes
without blame
if it comes
to a gunshot sound...
or the mute...
of the quick switchblade
'we sacrifice
if it comes...
to do or die

for all we knew
we learned worship of the flesh
suckers for beauty in a dress
chasing perfumes
lingering in our beds
for all we know
real love will never ends
so while others leaving
we chose to stay
alone or with a mate

"We never failed to fail, it was the easiest thing to do." - 'Southern Cross' by Stephen Stills

Nobody loves you when you're down and out. - Eric Clapton

I could drink a case of you and still be on my feet. I love that song so much that I once kept hitting the replay button on my car CD player for 100 miles. Every line in that song resonates with me.

Its better to burn out than fade away!!

All of "Dear God" by XTC.

"..when the money's good
the Times you have
Fun'n'games galore...
But you spend your money
And lie in bed forgotten
Wonderin' what you did it for..
...no one came from miles around
And said "Man, who's he"

Oz never did give nothing to the tin man that he didn't (didn't) already have.

That ain't workin' that's the way you do it. Money for nothin' and your chicks for free

Where have all the noses gone?
Long time passing-
Where have all the noses gone
Long time ago?
Where have all the noses gon?

Tool- Rosetta Stoned:

It was so real
Like I woke up in Wonderland
All sorta terrifying
I don't wanna be all alone
While I tell this story
And can anyone tell me why
Y'all sound like Peanuts parents?
Will I ever be coming down?
This is so real
Finally, it's my lucky day
See, my heart is racing
'Cause this shit never happens to me

Love this song! I can hear the words ringing out as I read them, it's always that way with Maynard.

" I didn't snort the cocaine to get high I just liked the way it smelled" Ray Wylie Hubbard from Conversation With The Devil.

Sorry for the long post...

Freedom's just another word for nothing left to lose...and what,exactly is wrong with that?! Works for me!

The long and winding road...

We always did feel the same
We just saw it from a different point
Of view
Tangled up in blue. Bob Dylan

Some people wear their heart upon their sleeve; I wear mine underneath my right pant leg, strapped to my boot.

I get by with a little help from my friends.

Now sit right down and you'll hear a tale. a tale of a fateful trip - that started from this tropic port, aboard this tiny ship.

The mate was a mighty sailing man, ths skipper brave and sure. Five passengers set sail that day for a three hour tour - A three hour tour....

the weather started getting rough - the tiny ship was tossed . If not for the courage of the fearless crew , the Minnow would be lost - the Minnow would be lost! ....

"In the information age, ignorance is a choice."

all i need is my leather
one t-shirt and two socks
i'll keep my hands warm in your pockets
and you can use the engine block
we'll ride out to california
with my arms around your chest
and i'll pretend that this is real
'cuz this is what i like best

What have we done maggie what have we done
