Lyrics:
Gregor starved to death, No one dies of loneliness

[lucimay]

Love is Like Oxygen:
You get too much, you get too high,
Not enough and you're gonna die.
Love gets you high.

Love is Like Oxygen:
You get too much, you get too high,
Not enough and you're gonna die.
Love gets you high.

Time on my side.
I got it all.
I heard that pride
Always comes before a fall.

There's a rumor goin' around the town.
That you don't want me around.
I can't shake off my city blues.
Everywhere I turn, I lose...

Love is Like Oxygen:
You get too much, you get too high,
Not enough and you're gonna die.
Love gets you high.

Love is Like Oxygen:
You get too much, you get too high,
Not enough and you're gonna die.
Love gets you high.

Time is no healer.
If you're not there.
Holy fever.
Set words in the air.

Some things are better left unsaid.
I'm gonna spend my days in bed.
I walk the streets at night,
To be hidden by the city li-ight. City li-ight.

Love is Like Oxygen:
You get too much, you get too high,
Not enough and you're gonna die.
Love gets you high.

Love is Like Oxygen:
You get too much, you get too high,
Not enough and you're gonna die.
Love gets you high.

for the tooth

Heart holds mouth to words
Said it's gone beyond the line this time
Eyes twitch close
Numb the lights turned out I'm out

The cold is in my bones
Said it's gone beyond the line this time
Shake a little off the deep end
Tell me when it's over now

I hate you
Explode and make up
Threw it in the yard
Burned it in an ashtray
I don't need you
Even though it's all made up
Put it in your box and put it

Show me how you been
Said it's been so long, I don't recall
Used to be this way
That's the way it always seems to go

Tired and walked away
Said it's far when you don't have a place to go
Where'd you go
Tell me where am I supposed to go

Here we go, here we go again
There you go, there you go again

As the years
They go slowly bye and bye goodbye
After you lead the way

to my parents: A Dream Goes on Forever-Todd Rundgren

A million old soldiers will fade away
But a dream goes on forever
I'm left standing here, I've got nothing to say
All is silent within my dream

A thousand true loves will live and die
But a dream lives on forever
The days and the years all go streaking by
But the time is stopped within my dream

We all have our everyday hopes and fears
And you'll find no exception in me
But that doesn't get me through a sea of tears
Over life's biggest tragedy

You're so long ago and so far away
But a dream goes on forever
I guess I believe that I'll see you one day
For without it there is no dream

You're so far away and so long ago
But my dream lives on forever
How much I loved you you'll never know
'Till you join me within my dream
How much I loved you you'll never know
'Till you join me within my dream

[Seareach]

Please don't ask me
what am I thinkin' It's about you.
Please don't ask me,
I never can see you what can I do?

My first impulse is to run to your side
My heart's not free and so I must hide
Please don't ask me
What I'm gonna say to you.

I toss and turn, can't sleep at night
It's worrying me
I go to bed, turn out the light
But your face I see...

It only hurts the more I pretend
That we could ever be more than friends
Please don't ask me
why I'm so in love with you.

You could easily make me happy
That I know...
But I'll try my best
to never tell you so.

I will sing to you my love songs
And pretend...
And I'll keep the secret
Right down to the end.

Please don't ask me
Why I'm not talkin' I just can't explain
And please don't ask me
Why I go walkin' out in the rain.

I could not live the lie it would take
To have you near would be a mistake
Please don't ask me
Why I'm still in love with you...

No... Please don't ask me...

for the null family

On the road again
Just can't wait to get on the road again
The life I love is makin' music with my friends
And I can't wait to get on the road again
On the road again
Goin' places that I've never been
Seein' things that I may never see again,
And I can't wait to get on the road again.

On the road again
Like a band of gypsies we go down the highway
We're the best of friends
Insisting that the world be turnin' our way
And our way
Is on the road again
Just can't wait to get on the road again
The life I love is makin' music with my friends
And I can't wait to get on the road again

On the road again
Like a band of gypsies we go down the highway
We're the best of friends
Insisting that the world be turnin' our way
And our way
Is on the road again

Just can't wait to get on the road again
The life I love is makin' music with my friends
And I can't wait to get on the road again
And I can't wait to get on the road again

[lucimay]

In the morning when I closed my eyes
You were sleeping in paradise
And while the room was growing light
I was holding still with all my might

Oh--what if its true
...what my heart says
Oh--whatll I do
What if this feeling becomes hard to part with

You were meant to play your part
In the design of a desperate heart
And while you gave your love to me
I was betting I was getting it free

Oh-- if Id only known
...what your heart cost
Oh-- can we call it a loan
And a debt that I owe
On a bet that I lost

In the evening when you see my eyes
Looking back at you, no disguise
Im not sure who you think youll see
Im just hoping youll still know that its me

Oh-- what if its true
...better ask the man inside
Oh, oh-- there seem to be two
One steals the love, and the other one hides.

Yeah-- can we call it a loan
Till Im paid in full for the seeds Ive sown
Yeah-- can we say that Ive grown
In someway that we may have yet to be shown

Oh-- if Id only known
...what your heart cost
Oh-- can we call it a loan
And a debt that I owe
On a bet that I lost

[lucimay]

All these accidents,
That happen,
Follow the dot,
Coincidence,
Makes sense,
Only with you,
You don't have to speak,
I feel.
Emotional landscapes,
They puzzle me,
Then the riddle gets solved,
And you push me up to this
State of emergency,
How beautiful to be,
State of emergency,
Is where I want to be.

All that no-one sees,
You see,
What's inside of me,
Every nerve that hurts,
You heal,
Deep inside of me, oo-oohh,
You don't have to speak,
I feel.
Emotional landscapes,
They puzzle me - confuse,
Then the riddle gets solved,
And you push me up to this
State of emergency,
How beautiful to be,
State of emergency,
Is where I want to be.
State of emergency,
How beautiful to be,
Emotional landscapes,
They puzzle me,
Then the riddle gets solved,
And you push me up to this
State of emergency,
How beautiful to be,
State of emergency,
Is where I want to be.
State of emergency,
How beautiful to be,
State of emergency,
State of, state of,
How beautiful,
Emergency,
Is where I want to be.
State of emergency,
How beautiful to be,
State of emergency,
Is where I want to be.
State of emergency,
How beautiful to be.

[The Laughing Man]

• You were there when I needed someone
  After all that you heard you rescued my poor heart
  Love me tonight and don't stop
  And when I acted like some kind of fool
  Even after the fall
  You laughed when they told you
  He'll let you down
  You smiled in their faces and just turned around
  
  Dream baby
  I don't want to dream alone
  I've been crying'
  Ever since you've gone
  Dream baby
  I'll give you everything I own
  Dream baby
  I don't wanna dream
  I don't wanna dream alone
  
  I could tell you some stories oh baby
  About life on the run
  I'll promise forever
  There be no regrets
  We'll have each other and never forget
  
  Dream baby
  I don't want to dream alone
  I've been crying
  Ever since you've gone oh your gone
  Dream baby
  I'll give you everything I own
  Oh dream baby
  I don't wanna dream
  I don't wanna dream alone
  
  Dream baby
  I've been crying
  Ever since you've gone oh your gone
  Dream baby
  I'll give you everything I own
  Oh dream baby
  I don't wanna dream
  I don't wanna dream alone
  
  Dream baby
  I don't wanna dream alone

Dedicated to the recently (and hopefully temporarily) departed Jenn:

Here she comes.....
Little town flirt
You're fallin for her.....
And youre gonna get hurt

Yeah, I know it's so hard to resist
The temptation of her tender red lips....
But you can hurt, hur-hur-hur-hurt
Yeah, you can get hur-hur-hur-hur-hur-ur-urt
Foolin around
With that little town flirt

Here she comes
With that look in her eye
She plays around
With every guy that goes by-y-y-y-y-y-y-y
Yeah, I know she's gonna treat you wrong
So your heart just better be strong
cause you can hurt, hur-hur-hur-hurt
Yeah, you can get a-hur-hur-hur-hur-hur-ur-urt
Foolin around
With that little town flirt

I know how you feel
You think her love is real
You think this time she'll be since-e-e-e-ere
But you think youve got a paper heart
When she starts to tear it apart
Thats when she'll let you go, whoa, whoa, whoa

Here she comes
Just look at that style
She's looking at you-ou-ou
Giving you that smi-i-i-i-i-ile
Yeah, I know she's gonna treat you wrong
So your heart just better be strong
cause you can hurt, hur-hur-hur-hurt
Yeah, you can get a-hur-hur-hur-hur-hur-ur-urt
Foolin around
With that little town flirt

You better run and hide now boy
You better pass her by, now, yeah, boy
You better pass her by

[Seareach]

For the one "constant" in my life....

At last I have clarity
It took a while it took a long time
But now I can see
I learned to let go
It was the hardest lesson of all
But I gave you my love in

Silence, silence

There would come a time in my life
When I'd face what was real
I turned a blind eye, I'd feed the lie
Too afraid to come clean

I learned to let go
Although you would never know
That I gave you my love in

Silence, silence
Silence, silence

But I learned to let go
It was the hardest lesson of all
But did you ever know
I gave you my love in

Silence, silence

for julie

primal scream : come together

Come together oh oh
Come together oh oh
Come together oh oh
Come together

Kiss me, won't you won't you kiss me
Won't you won't you kiss me
Lift me right out of this world
Trip me, won't you won't you trip me
Won't you won't you trip me
Lift me ride me to the stars

I'm free you're free
I want you to touch me
Come touch me
Now it's all too much
All too much
All too much

Come together oh oh
Come together oh oh
Come together as one
Come together as one
Up and away
Come together oh yeah
Up and away

For Luci's mate, for thinking my intentions are in any way dishonorable:

If you don't know me by now
You will never never never know me

All the things
That we've been through
You should understand me
Like I understand you
Now girl I know the difference
Between right and wrong
I ain't gonna do nothing
To break up our happy home
Don't get so excited
When I come home
A little late at night
Cos we only act like children
When we argue fuss and fight

If you don't know me by now
You will never never never know me

We've all got our
Own funny moods
I've got mine,
Woman you've got yours too
Just trust in me like I trust in you
As long as we've been together
It should be so easy to do
Just get yourself together
Or we might as well say goodbye
What good is a love affair
When you can't see eye to eye

If you don't know me by now
You will never
Never never know me

[sgt.null]

for j from d

Fly me to the moon
And let me play among the stars
Let me see what spring is like
On Jupiter and Mars
In other words hold my hand
In other words darling kiss me
Fill my life with song
And let me sing forevermore
You are all I hope for
All I worship and adore
In other words please be true
In other words I love you

[lucimay]

And I'd give up forever to touch you
Cause I know that you feel me somehow
You're the closest to heaven that I'll ever be
And I don't want to go home right now
And all I can taste is this moment
And all I can breathe is your life
Cause sooner or later it's over
I just don't want to miss you tonight

And I don't want the world to see me
Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

And you can't fight the tears that ain't coming
Or the moment of truth in your lies
When everything feels like the movies
And you bleed just to know you're alive

And I don't want the world to see me
Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

And I don't want the world to see me
Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

And I don't want the world to see me
Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am

Guns N' Roses - Estranged

When you're talkin to yourself
And nobody's home
You can fool yourself
You came in this world alone
(Alone)

So nobody ever told you baby
How it was gonna be
So what'll happen to you baby
Guess we'll have to wait and see
ONE, TWO

Old at heart but I'm only 28
And I'm much too young
To let love break my heart
Young at heart but it's getting much too late
To find ourselves so far apart

I don't know how you're s'posed
To find me lately
An what more could tou ask from me
How could you say that I never needed you
When you took everything
Said you took everything from me

Young at heart an it gets so hard to wait
When no one I know can seem to help me now
Old at heart but I musn't hesitate
If I'm to find my own way out

Still talkin' to myself
and nobody's home
(Alone)

So nobody ever told us baby
How it was gonna be
So what'll happen to us baby
Guess we'll have to wait and see

When I find out all the reasons
Maybe I'll find another way
Find another day
With all the changing seasons of my life
Maybe I'll get it right next time
An now that you've been broken down
Got your head out of the clouds
You're back down on the ground
And you don't talk so loud
An you don't walk so proud
Any more, and what for

Well I jumped into the river
Too many times to make it home
I'm out here on my own, an drifting all alone
If it doesn't show give it time
To read between the lines
'Cause I see the storm getting closer
And the waves they get so high
Seems everything We've ever known's here
Why must it drift away and die

I'll never find anyone to replace you
Guess I'll have to make it thru, this time- Oh this time
Without you

I knew the storm was getting closer
And all my friends said I was high
But everything we've ever known's here
I never wanted it to die

[The Laughing Man]

• Like a shipwrecked mariner adrift on an unknown sea
  Clinging to the wreckage of the lost ship Fantasy
  I'm a castaway, stranded in a desolate land
  I can see the footprints in the virtual sand
  
  Net boy, net girl
  Send your signal 'round the world
  Let your fingers walk and talk
  And set you free
  
  Net boy, net girl
  Send your impulse 'round the world
  Put your message in a modem
  And throw it in the Cyber Sea
  
  Astronauts in the weightlessness of pixellated space
  Exchange graffiti with a disembodied race
  I can save the universe in a grain of sand
  I can hold the future in my virtual hand
  
  Let's dance tonight
  To a virtual song
  Press this key
  And you can play along
  
  Let's fly tonight
  On our virtual wings
  Press this key
  To see amazing things
  
  Like a pair of vagabonds who wave between two passing trains
  Or the glimpse of a woman's smile through a window in the rain
  I can smell her perfume
  I can taste her lips
  I can feel the voltage from her fingertips
  
  Net boy, net girl
  Send your heartbeat round the world

for grunge

Did you hear the distant cry
Calling me back to my sin
Like the one you knew before
Calling me back once again

I nearly, I nearly lost you there
And it's taking us somewhere
I nearly lost you there
Let's try to see now

Drag me far enough to know
I'm blind every mile that you burn
There's a rider that's fallen and
It's clear there's no time to return

I nearly, I nearly lost you there
And it's taking us somewhere
I nearly lost you there
Let's try to see now

Did you hear the distant lie
Calling me back to my sin
Like the one you knew before
Calling me back once again

I nearly, I nearly lost you there
And it's taking us somewhere
I nearly lost you there
Well let's try to see now
I nearly lost you there....

for three friends with hurt hearts.

I never seen you looking so bad my funky one
You tell me that your superfine mind has come undone

Any major dude with half a heart surely will tell you my friend
Any minor world that breaks apart falls together again
When the demon is at your door
In the morning it won't be there no more
Any major dude will tell you

Have you ever seen a squonk's tears? Well, look at mine
The people on the street have all seen better times

Any major dude with half a heart surely will tell you my friend
Any minor world that breaks apart falls together again
When the demon is at your door
In the morning it won't be there no more
Any major dude will tell you

I can tell you all I know, the where to go, the what to do
You can try to run but you can't hide from what's inside of you

Any major dude with half a heart surely will tell you my friend
Any minor world that breaks apart falls together again
When the demon is at your door
In the morning it won't be there no more
Any major dude will tell you

santa maria, santa teresa, santa anna, santa susannah
santa cecelia, santa copelia, santa domenica, mary angelica
frater achad, frater pietro, julianus, petronilla
santa, santos, miroslaw, vladimir and all the rest

a man is placed upon the steps, a baby cries,
and high above the church bells start to ring
and as the heaviness the body oh the heaviness settles in
somewhere you can hear a mother sing
then it's one foot then the other as you step out onto the road
how much weight? how much weight?
then it's how long? and how far? and how many times before it's too late?

calling all angels
calling all angels
walk me through this one
don't leave me alone
calling all angels
calling all angels
we're cryin' and we're hurtin'
and we're not sure why...

and every day you gaze upon the sunset with such love and intensity
it's almost...it's almost as if if you could only crack the code
then you'd finally understand what all this means
but if you could...do you think you would trade in all the pain and
suffering?
ah, but then you'd miss the beauty of the light upon this earth
and the sweetness of the leaving

calling all angels
calling all angels
walk me through this one
don't leave me alone
callin' all angels
callin' all angels
we're tryin'
we're hopin'
we're hurtin'
we're lovin'
we're cryin'
we're callin'
'cuz we're not sure how this goes
