R.E.M. - ÜBerlin

LYRICS

Hey now, take your pills and
Hey now, make your breakfast
Hey now, comb your hair and off to work
Crash land, no illusions, no collision, no intrusion
My imagination runs away

I know, I know, I know what I am chasing
I know, I know, I know that this is changing me

I am flying on a star into a meteor tonight
I am flying on a star, star, star
I will make it through the day
And then the day becomes the night
I will make it through the night

Hey now, take the U-Bahn, five stops, change the station
Hey now, don't forget that change will save you
Hey now, count a thousand-million people, that's astounding
Chasing through the city with their stars on bright

I know, I know, I know what I am chasing
I know, I know, I know that this is changing me

I am flying on a star into a meteor tonight
I am flying on a star, star, star
I will make it through the day
And then the day becomes the night
I will make it through the night

I don't mind repeating, I am not complete
I have never been the gifted type
Hey, man, tell me something, are you off to somewhere?
Do you want to go with me tonight?

I know, I know, I know that this is changing
We walk the streets to feel the ground I'm chasing: ÜBerlin

I am flying on a star into a meteor tonight
I am flying on a star, star, star
I will make it through the day
And then the day and then the day becomes the night
I will make it through the night

Self sent a twister 
A tearin' after me 
Gonna bust my house to splinters yes

Simon and Garfunkel - The Sound of Silence

LYRICS

Hello darkness, my old friend,
I've come to talk with you again,
Because a vision softly creeping,
Left its seeds while I was sleeping,
And the vision that was planted in my brain
Still remains
Within the sound of silence.

In restless dreams I walked alone
Narrow streets of cobblestone,
'Neath the halo of a street lamp,
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light
That split the night
And touched the sound of silence.

And in the naked light I saw
Ten thousand people, maybe more.
People talking without speaking,
People hearing without listening,
People writing songs that voices never share
And no one dared
Disturb the sound of silence.

"Fools," said I, "You do not know –
Silence like a cancer grows.
Hear my words that I might teach you.
Take my arms that I might reach you."
But my words like silent raindrops fell
And echoed in the wells of silence

And the people bowed and prayed
To the neon god they made.
And the sign flashed out its warning
In the words that it was forming.
And the sign said, The words of the prophets are written on the subway walls
And tenement halls
And whispered in the sound of silence.

Aaaahahahahaaa

Hey son

I'm looking forward

You're leaning backwards

Of this I'm sure

Have you had enough?

Are you feeling rough?

Does your skull hurt?

Well if it's warm

You may call it suicide

But I'm being born again

I'm waiting

Right here now

Aaaahh

I'm waiting

For someone

Or something

To take me

To take me over

Days are forgotten

Now it's all over

Simply forgotten

How to disappear

Home bred

I've got blood lust

Feeding you bread crust

I leave no scar

You say I'm old hat

A fucking dirty rat

Call me a cliche

How right you are

Cos I am flipping bag of bones

I am righting all your wrongs

You may call it suicide

But I'm being born again

Chewing on monkey brains

You will never

Never ever forget

Days

Days are forgotten

Now it's all over

Simply forgotten

How to disappear

I saw something

The Doors - Light My Fire

LYRICS

You know that it would be untrue
You know that I would be a liar
If I was to say to you
Girl, we couldn't get much higher

Come on baby, light my fire
Come on baby, light my fire
Try to set the night on fire

The time to hesitate is through
No time to wallow in the mire
Try now we can only lose
And our love become a funeral pyre

Come on baby, light my fire
Come on baby, light my fire
Try to set the night on fire, yeah

The time to hesitate is through
No time to wallow in the mire
Try now we can only lose
And our love become a funeral pyre

Come on baby, light my fire
Come on baby, light my fire
Try to set the night on fire, yeah

You know that it would be untrue
You know that I would be a liar
If I was to say to you
Girl, we couldn't get much higher

Come on baby, light my fire
Come on baby, light my fire
Try to set the night on fire
Try to set the night on fire
Try to set the night on fire
Try to set the night on fire

Supertramp - Breakfast in America

LYRICS

Take a look at my girlfriend
She's the only one I got
Not much of a girlfriend
Never seem to get a lot

Take a jumbo across the water
Like to see America
See the girls in California
I'm hoping it's going to come true
But there's not a lot I can do

Could we have kippers for breakfast
Mummy dear, Mummy dear
They got to have 'em in Texas
Cos everyone's a millionaire

I'm a winner, I'm a sinner
Do you want my autograph
I'm a loser, what a joker
I'm playing my jokes upon you
While there's nothing better to do

Don't you look at my girlfriend
She's the only one I got
Not much of a girlfriend
Never seem to get a lot

Take a jumbo cross the water
Like to see America
See the girls in California
I'm hoping it's going to come true
But there's not a lot I can do

Pink Turns Blue - Walking On Both Sides

LYRICS

I don't know a thing outside

suffering endless through my life

I've seen too much I'm all alone 

Who likes to sit around and wait

but to act that means to fail

All I ever thought was wrong 

Damn the madness of my pride

the price I paid was much too high

My dreams became reality 

Cause I'm walking on both sides 

Much more real than my life

I am caged by thick ice

Makes me gloomy and morose 

Why I dared to go so far

lost my strength and lost my heart

I've to stay somewhere between 

Cause I'm walking on both sides 

Can't escape reality

always travelling in my dreams

Nothing I could take for true

How should I know whether I love you

whether I love you 

I'm walking on both sides

Red Zebra - can't live in a living room

LYRICS

Tranquilizers make me nervous
I can't relax no more
Should I go out or stay in
I never had this feeling before

And then I see your smiling faces
You are all laughing at me
Oh, doctor doctor can't you see
There must be something wrong with me

I can't piss in the toilet
Can't sleep in my bedroom
There's no food in the kitchen
I can't live in a living room

And then I hear your silent voices
They are all talking about me
Oh doctor doctor can't you see
I'm not the man I used to be

I (I) can't (can't) live (live)
In a (in a) living (living) room (room)
I can't live in a living room

Tranquilizers make me nervous
I can't relax no more
Should I go out or stay in
I never had this feeling before

And the I see your smiling faces
You are all laughing at me
Oh, doctor doctor can't you see
The things that happened to me

I just can't live any
I just can't live anymore

Semisonic - Secret Smile

LYRICS

Nobody knows it but you've got a secret smile
And you use it only for me
Nobody knows it but you've got a secret smile
And you use it only for me

So use it and prove it
Remove this whirling sadness
I'm losing, I'm bluesing
But you can save me from madness

Nobody knows it but you've got a secret smile
And you use it only for me
Nobody knows it but you've got a secret smile
And you use it only for me

So save me I'm waiting
I'm needing, hear me pleading
And soothe me, improve me
I'm grieving, I'm barely believing now, now

When you are flying around and around the world
And I'm lying alonely
I know there's something sacred and free reserved
And received by me only

Cutting Crew - (I Just) Died In Your Arms

 LYRICS

Oh I, I just died in your arms tonightIt must have been something you saidI just died in your arms tonight

I keep looking for something I can't getBroken hearts lie all around meAnd I don't see an easy way to get out of this

Her diary, it sits on the bedside tableThe curtains are closed, the cat's in the cradleWho would've thought that a boy like me could come to this

Oh I, I just died in your arms tonightIt must've been something you saidI just died in your arms tonight

Oh I, I just died in your arms tonightIt must've been some kind of kissI should've walked away

Is there any just cause for feeling like this?On the surface I'm a name on a listI try to be discreet, but then blow it again

I've lost and found, it's my final mistakeShe's loving by proxy, no give and all take'Cause I've been thrilled to fantasy one too many times

Oh I, I just died in your arms tonightIt must've been something you saidI just died in your arms tonight

Oh I, I just died in your arms tonightIt must've been some kind of kissI should've walked away

It was a long hot nightShe made it easy, she made it feel rightBut now it's over, the moment has goneI followed my hands not my head, I know I was wrong

Oh I, I just died in your arms tonightIt must've been something you saidI just died in your arms tonight

Oh I, I just died in your arms tonightIt must've been some kind of kissI should've walked away
