A dog cannot lie, neither can he be sincere
A dog may be expecting his master to come
Why can't he be expecting him to come next Wednesday?
Is it because he doesn't have language?
If a lion could speak, we would not be able to understand what he said
Why do I say such a thing?

"If we could understand him, I shouldn't think we'd have too much trouble with a lion.."
"We could get an interpreter."

Do you mean for me or for the lion?
Yes, yes, w-we could get an interpreter
What possible use could that be?
To imagine a language is to imagine a form of life
It's what we do and who we are that gives meaning to our words
I can't understand a lion's language because I don't know what his world is like!
How can I know the world a lion inhabits?!

Boiled the elements down into the axioms
Mistook a fax for remedial tediums
It seems Ezekiel speaks to some
My mind was hazy and numb
And left hand gripped a clump of palladium
Saw the beast with the wings and the talons
The simple answer but it felt out of balance
Bad news like a blue screen of death
Besides the point, but which hue seems best?
Blessed
With every album my head grows bigger
It's beyond my nigger love each girl on twitter
Nonetheless, I nominate myself as tribute
Should the submarine flood, we would surely be fish food
I can seem to speak around it
If I could only hit the nail on the head
I'll read this fan mail when I'm dead
It's time to enlist in the service
It's time to struggle with purpose
For too long I've been the opposite of sanguine
It's time to analyze the language

I think I got god's answering machine... again

I wanna growl right here

I felt it in my bones, deep from the grave
I haven't seen it yet, but I'll know it on a day

I've been through the desert on a horse with no name
It felt good to be out of the rain
In the desert you can't remember your name
Cause there ain't no one for to give you no pain
La la...

I'll keep conducting these autistic symphonies
These sentences have sentenced me
Like I didn't have the sense to sense the mere
The presence grows weird
Doesn't make sense but I don't fear, not a damn thing
I live like a man who's already dead
Like I had a motorcycle but my name is Zed
(I'll be missed), said another clumsy alchemist
Like he just learned predicate and calculus
The existential quantifier, a backwards EX
My rap career is a cataloging of defects
Copy edited by Ryan Seacrest
Like he must be new to this
Milo doesn't exude hubris, chuuch
Like he must be new to this
Milo doesn't exude hubris

Pain or damage don't end the world
Or despair, or fucking beatings
The world ends when you're dead
Until then... give some back

Standing On The Edge Of Summer
Thursday
In regards to the meaning of this song: Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.” That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.

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."

Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
