You've got a face that only your mother could love
beneath the makeup and skin is only skeleton
looking through your window
when you're home and all alone
I'll swallow you whole with milk
and spit out the bones

This song is not for you
this song is just for me
la dolce vita in a city by the sea
inside our honeymoon sweet
in the belly of a whale
I want you lying facedown
upon a bed of nails

Say hello to my little friend
my god it's so good to see you again
pure bedlam for halfbreeds
under the hot rain in the tropic purgatory
pure mayhems for og's
I'm down with tippin 40's to your memory

We are now the bonnie and clyde of the prison yard
our love is firing bullets in the prison gaurds
we are now the angels of death breathing cyanide
circling the sun burning holes in the blue sky

This life is not for you
This life is not for me
now we've got our necks all stuck in a guillotine
don't let em see your fear
don't let em hear you scream
just close your eyes and pretend it's a bad dream

Harder faster you know you want it harder faster
alright

Lullabies in voice so sweet
to you and me and the devil makes 3
there's no place like home
we are not in kansas anymore
rape becomes the new I love you
out with the old assault on the senses

Ashes of the mushroom clouds
sulpher tears rain down
whispers in the wind grow loud
my god its so hot down here
hush little baby dry your eyes
don't cry my sweet clementine

Hello pharaoh where's your halo

    This is definitely the song with the best lyrics from the album. Maybe even if you include DFD's history. What it's about? I have no idea. probably a lot of different things. doesn't matter, though.

    some really good oneliners there :)

    I think most of these lyrics are lines from movies.

The Night We Met
Lord Huron
This is a hauntingly beautiful song about introspection, specifically about looking back at a relationship that started bad and ended so poorly, that the narrator wants to go back to the very beginning and tell himself to not even travel down that road. I believe that the relationship started poorly because of the lines: "Take me back to the night we met:When the night was full of terrors: And your eyes were filled with tears: When you had not touched me yet" So, the first night was not a great start, but the narrator pursued the relationship and eventually both overcame the rough start to fall in love with each other: "I had all and then most of you" Like many relationships that turn sour, it was not a quick decline, but a gradual one where the narrator and their partner fall out of love and gradually grow apart "Some and now none of you" Losing someone who was once everything in your world, who you could confide in, tell your secrets to, share all the most intimate parts of your life, to being strangers with that person is probably one of the most painful experiences a person can go through. So Painful, the narrator wants to go back in time and tell himself to not even pursue the relationship. This was the perfect song for "13 Reasons Why"

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere. In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.

Holiday
Bee Gees
@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday". I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."
