Pariah Posted November 17, 2016 Author Report Share Posted November 17, 2016 I'm moving through some changes I'll never be the same Something you did touched me There's no one else to blame The love we had has fallen The love we used to share We've given up pretending As if you didn't care Change changing places Root yourself to the ground Capitalize on this good fortune One word can bring you round Changes I look into the mirror I see no happiness All the warmth I gave you Has turned to emptiness The love we had has fallen The love we used to share You've left me here believing In love that wasn't there Change changing places Root yourself to the ground Word to the wise - Well you get what's coming One word can bring you round Changes When I look into your eyes and try to find out how There's no way to save it now And everything I feel Changes Keep looking for Changes Changes For some reason you're questioning why I always believe it gets better One difference between you and I Your heart is inside your head One word from you One word from me A clear design on your liberty Who could believe when love has gone How we move on like everyone Only such fools Only such jealous hearts Only through love changes come Change changing places Root yourself to the ground Capitalize on this good fortune One word can bring you round Changes One road to loneliness It's always the same One road to happiness It's calling your name Change changing places - Changes Root yourself to the ground Capitalize on this good fortune One word can bring you round Changes Change changing places Changes Root yourself to the ground Word to the wise - Well you get what's coming One word - One word can bring you round Changes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greywind Posted November 17, 2016 Report Share Posted November 17, 2016 We're not indestructible.Baby better get that straightI think it's unbelievable,How you give into the hands of fate.Some things are worth fighting for,Some feelings never die.I'm not askin' for another chance,I just wanna know why?There's no easy way out, There's no shortcut home.There's no easy way out, givin' in can't be wrong.I don't wanna pacify.I don't wanna drag you down,But I'm feelin like a prisoner.Like a stranger in a no name town.I see all the angry faces,So afraid that could be you and me;Talkin about what might have been,Thinkin about what used to be.There's no easy way out. There's no shortcut home.There's no easy way out. Givin' in can't be wrong.Baby, baby we can shed this skin...We can know how we feel inside.Instead of goin' down an endless road,Not knowin if we're dead or alive.Some things are worth fightin' for.Some feelings never die.I'm not askin for another chance,I just wanna know why?There's no easy way out. There's no shortcut home.There's no easy way out givin in, givin in can't be wrong, no.There's no easy way out. There's no shortcut home.There's no easy way out, there's no easy no easy way out.

death tribble Posted November 18, 2016 Report Share Posted November 18, 2016 Goodbye to you, my trusted friend. We've known each other since we were nine or ten. Together we've climbed hills and trees. Learned of love and ABC's, skinned our hearts and skinned our knees. Goodbye my friend, it's hard to die, when all the birds are singing in the sky, Now that the spring is in the air. Pretty girls are everywhere. Think of me and I'll be there. We had joy, we had fun, we had seasons in the sun. But the hills that we climbed were just seasons out of time. Goodbye, Papa, please pray for me, I was the black sheep of the family. You tried to teach me right from wrong. Too much wine and too much song, wonder how I got along. Goodbye, Papa, it's hard to die when all the birds are singing in the sky, Now that the spring is in the air. Little children everywhere. When you see them I'll be there. We had joy, we had fun, we had seasons in the sun. But the wine and the song, like the seasons, have all gone. We had joy, we had fun, we had seasons in the sun. But the wine and the song, like the seasons, have all gone. Goodbye, Michelle, my little one. You gave me love and helped me find the sun. And every time that I was down you would always come around and get my feet back on the ground. Goodbye, Michelle, it's hard to die when all the bird are singing in the sky, Now that the spring is in the air. With the flowers ev'rywhere. I wish that we could both be there. We had joy, we had fun, we had seasons in the sun. But the stars we could reach were just starfish on the beach We had joy, we had fun, we had seasons in the sun. But the stars we could reach were just starfish on the beach We had joy, we had fun, we had seasons in the sun, But the wine and the song, like the seasons, have all gone. All our lives we had fun, we had seasons in the sun. But the hills that we climbed Were just seasons out of time....

death tribble Posted November 18, 2016 Report Share Posted November 18, 2016 See the tree, how big it's grown But friend it hasn't been too long It wasn't big I laughed at her and she got mad The first day that she planted it, was just a twig Then the first snow came And she ran out to brush the snow away So it wouldn't die Came runnin' in all excited Slipped and almost hurt herself And I laughed till I cried She was always young at heart Kinda dumb and kinda smart and I loved her so And I surprised her with a puppy Kept me up all Christmas Eve two years ago And it would sure embarrass her When I came in from workin' late 'Cause I would know That she'd been sittin' there and cryin' Over some sad and silly late, late show And honey, I miss you And I'm bein' good And I'd love to be with you If only I could She wrecked the car and she was sad And so afraid that I'd be mad But what the heck Though I pretended hard to be Guess you could say she saw through me And hugged my neck I came home unexpectedly And caught her cryin' needlessly In the middle of the day And it was in the early Spring When flowers bloom and robins sing She went away And honey, I miss you And I'm bein' good And I'd love to be with you If only I could One day while I was not at home While she was there and all alone The angels came Now all I have is memories of Honey And I wake up nights and call her name Now my life's an empty stage Where Honey lived and Honey played And love grew up And a small cloud passes overhead And cries down on the flower bed That Honey loved And see the tree how big it's grown But friend it hasn't been too long It wasn't big And I laughed at her and she got mad The first day that she planted it, was just a twig tkdguy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

death tribble Posted November 18, 2016 Report Share Posted November 18, 2016 You think that I don't feel love What I feel for you is real love In other's eyes I see reflected a hurt, scorned, rejected Love child, never meant to be Love child, born in poverty Love child, never meant to be Love child, take a look at me I started my life in an old, cold, rundown tenement slum My father left, he never even married Mom I shared the guilt my mama knew So afraid that others knew I had no name This love we're contemplating, is worth the pain of waiting We'll only end up hating the child we may be creating Love child, never meant to be Love child, by society Love child, always second best Love child, diff'rent from the rest Hold on, whoa I started school in a worn, torn, dress that somebody threw out I knew the way it was to always live in doubt To be without the simple things So afraid my friends could see the guilt in me Don't think that I don't need you Don't think I don't want to please you No child of mine'll be bearing the name of shame I've been wearin' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael Hopcroft Posted November 21, 2016 Report Share Posted November 21, 2016 Some... say I have no direction, that I'm a light-speed distraction, that's a knee-jerk reaction. Still this is the final frontier, everything is so clear, to my destiny I steer This life in the stars is all I've ever known, Stars and stardust in infinite space is my only home But the moment that I hit the stage, thousands of voices are calling my name And I know in my heart it's been worth it all of the while And as my albums fly off of the shelves, handing out autographed pics of myself, This life I chose isn't easy but sure is one heck of a ride At the moment that I hit the stage, I hear the universe calling my name And I know deep down in my heart I have nothing to fear And as the solar wind blows through my hair, knowing I have so much more left to share A wandering spirit who's tearing its way through the cold atmosphere I'll fly like a comet Soar like a comet Crash like a comet I'm just a comet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pariah Posted November 22, 2016 Author Report Share Posted November 22, 2016 Hidden in the mountains Under the earth and stone A cubic mile of perfection A treasure no one has known One man came upon this mother load Built himself a thousand room chateau He's the emperor of diamonds Master of the prize He's got a hold on happiness And all that money can buy Everyday he lives in fascination This is not an everyday temptation No, it's a diamond as big as the Ritz What you gonna do with this, tell me Who's gonna save you when your a slave to The diamond as big as the Ritz A blessing can become a curse If you keep it to yourself Your own exaggeration Is not so good for your health It's the prophecy of the unattainable dream If you take one look behind the shine It doesn't always gleam Everyday he lives in fascination This is not an everyday temptation It was a diamond as big as the Ritz What you gonna do with this Who's gonna save you when your a slave to The diamond as big as the Ritz Coal under pressure Sparkle of treasure Crystalline measure Ornamental pleasure In the corner of your eye Make a grown man cry All the seeds you've sown Greed can crumble your castle walls Greed can purchase you thrills Power is a dangerous thing It can maim it can kill It's the prophecy of the unattainable dream If you take one look behind the shine It doesn't always gleam It was a diamond as big as the Ritz What you gonna do with this Who's gonna save you when your a slave to The diamond as big as the Ritz Hugh Neilson 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greywind Posted November 22, 2016 Report Share Posted November 22, 2016 The screen door slamsMary' dress wavesLike a vision she dances across the porchAs the radio playsRoy Orbison singing for the lonelyHey that's me and I want you onlyDon't turn me home againI just can't face myself alone againDon't run back insideDarling you know just what I'm here forSo you're scared and you're thinkingThat maybe we ain't that young anymoreShow a little faith there's magic in the nightYou ain't a beauty but hey you're alrightOh and that's alright with meYou can hide 'neath your coversAnd study your painMake crosses from your loversThrow roses in the rainWaste your summer praying in vainFor a saviour to rise from these streetsWell now I'm no heroThat's understoodAll the redemption I can offer girlIs beneath this dirty hoodWith a chance to make it good somehowHey what else can we do now ?Except roll down the windowAnd let the wind blowBack your hairWell the night's busting openThese two lanes will take us anywhereWe got one last chance to make it realTo trade in these wings on some wheelsClimb in backHeaven's waiting on down the tracksOh-oh come take my handWe're riding out tonight to case the promised landOh-oh Thunder Road oh Thunder RoadLying out there like a killer in the sunHey I know it's late we can make it if we runOh Thunder Road sit tight take holdThunder RoadWell I got this guitarAnd I learned how to make it talkAnd my car's out backIf you're ready to take that long walkFrom your front porch to my front seatThe door's open but the ride it ain't freeAnd I know you're lonelyFor words that I ain't spokenBut tonight we'll be freeAll the promises'll be brokenThere were ghosts in the eyesOf all the boys you sent awayThey haunt this dusty beach roadIn the skeleton frames of burned out ChevroletsThey scream your name at night in the streetYour graduation gown lies in rags at their feetAnd in the lonely cool before dawnYou hear their engines roaring onBut when you get to the porch they're goneOn the wind so Mary climb inIt's town full of losersAnd I'm pulling out of here to win Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tkdguy Posted November 23, 2016 Report Share Posted November 23, 2016 You're the cream in my coffee, You're the salt in my stew. You will always be my necessity I'd be lost without you You're the starch in my collar You're the lace in my shoe You will always be my necessity I'd be lost without you. Most men tell love tales And each tale dovetails You know each known way This way is my own way You're the sail of my love boat, You're the captain and crew, You will always be my necessity I'd be lost without you.

Pariah Posted November 23, 2016 Author Report Share Posted November 23, 2016 At words poetic I'm so pathetic That I always have found it best Instead of getting 'em off my chest To let 'em rest, unexpressed I hate parading my serenading As I'll probably miss a bar But if this ditty is not so pretty At least it'll tell you how great you are You're the top, you're the Collisseum You're the top, you're the Louvre Museum You're the melody from a symphony by Strauss You're a Bendel bonnet, a Shakespeare sonnet, you're Mickey Mouse You're the Nile, you're the Tower of Pisa You're the smile of the Mona Lisa I'm a worthless check, a total wreck, a flop But if baby, I'm the bottom, you're the top You're the top, you're Mahatma Gandhi You're the top, you're Napoleon brandy You're the purple light of a summer night in Spain You're the National Gallery, you're Garbo's salary, you're cellophane You're sublime, you're a turkey dinner You're the time of the Derby Winner I'm a toy balloon that's fated soon to pop But if baby, I'm the bottom, you're the top You're the top, you're a Waldorf salad You're the top, you're a Berlin ballad You're the nimble tread of the feet of Fred Astaire You're an O'Neal drama, you're Whistler's mama, you're camembert You're a rose, you're inferno's Dante You're the nose, on the great Durante I'm a lazy lout who is just about to stop But if baby, I'm the bottom, you're the top Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
