My favorites off the top of my head:
-Andrew Jackson Jihad

-Okkervil River

we're all just one too many mornings and a thousand miles behind

Dear people of the underclass the president of the united states of america is now dead.

The sun is the same in a relative way but you're older,
Shorter of breath and one day closer to death.

Pink Floyd, Time

"Take a long long look in the mirror
You smiled when you lied about all of your feelings
I hope to god none of this comes true
Because one eye is shut
And the other one is completely crushed
Death will come slowly for you"


Carissa's Wierd - Blessed Arms That Hold You Tight, Freezing Cold and Alone

Why are you trying to make fun of me?
You think it's funny
What the **** you think it's doing to me?
You take your turn lashing out at me
I want you crying, when you're dirty in the front of me
Thoughtless, by Korn

It's got me on my knees in a bathroom,
Praying to a God that I don't even believe in,
Well, dear Jesus, are you listening?
If this is the one chance that really matters,
Well, don't let me **** this up.
If you'd told me about all this when I was fifteen,
I never would have believed it.
-Against Me! Tonight We're Gonna Give 35%

This was enough to make me download that album, and I'm really glad I did. Even better I think is:

And I'd like to be a big ball of meat
That bees can buzz around and eat, when I die
So that I might be granted, one sense of purpose

It's kind of angsty, but at the same time so whimsical.

"My kill-hand tattooed evil across his brother's fist
That filthy five they did nothing to challenge or resist" - Nick Cave: The Mercy Seat

Eric fell in love with an FBI informant
Shared his dreams of revolution
Now he's sitting in solitary confinement
Be careful what you think
Be careful what you say
It might be used against you in court one day
Well Anna thinks she's a hawk
She's just a fucking snitch
Anna is a Stool Pigeon - Tom Gabel

Glad you enjoyed it. If your interested, their first album Candy Cigarettes and Cap Guns is just as good, but has more humor to it.

How come Jesus gets industrial disease?

"I have got one finger left
I saved it for my 'ray gun trigger'"

Kashmir - Beamed

"Guns can't kill what soldiers can't see."

Thats really poetic and deep. WHO THE FUCK WROTE IT?

Ahem.




Heaven is full of fucking scum,
if they live like pigs they will die like one.
There will never be enough forgiveness.
St Peter I must confess, I'm more of a devil than my life suggests,
Tell god its appreciated but I was born in hell, hell is where we made it.
And if god is a great forgiver, then all the scum will be there with me.
-Gallows, The Great Forgiver

"how we survive is what makes us who we are" - Survive by Rise Against

"so what do you say? your coffin or mine?" - Blue In The Face by Alkaline Trio

"the heart is something you can't control, you either choose to follow, or be left on your own" - Voices Off Camera by Rise Against

I've always loved the lyrics to Dylan's Like A Rolling Stone, particularly the 4th verse:

Princess on the steeple and all the pretty people
They’re drinkin’, thinkin’ that they got it made
Exchanging all kinds of precious gifts and things
But you’d better lift your diamond ring, you’d better pawn it babe
You used to be so amused
At Napoleon in rags and the language that he used
Go to him now, he calls you, you can’t refuse
When you got nothing, you got nothing to lose
You’re invisible now, you got no secrets to conceal

there's this awesome site, it's called google
it lets you get answers to most of your questions, especially when you're looking for the source of something cool

Haha. :P

When the routine bites hard
And ambitions are low
And the resentment rides high
But emotions wont grow
And were changing our ways,
Taking different roads
Then love, love will tear us apart again

I too am tired now
Embracing thoughts of tonight's dreamless sleep
My head is empty
My toes are warm
I am safe from harm

Slint - Washer

Each evening the sun sets in five billion places,
Seen by ten billion eyes set in five billion faces,
Then they close in a daze and wait for the dawing,
But the daylight and sunrise
Are brighter in our eyes,
Where night cannot devour golden solar power

Once we were dammned now I guess we are angels
For we passed though the dark and avoided the dangers
Then I awoke with a start to startling changes
All the tension is ended,
The sentance suspended,
And darkenss now sparkles and gleams.

And it all seems larger than life to me
I find it rather hard rather hard to believe.

So I stand as the sound goes straight through my body,
I'm so bloated up, happy, and I throw things around me.
And Im growing in stages, and have been for ages,
Just singing and floating and free.

Dum de dum dum
Its a heavenly pop hit
If anyone wants it.
Dum de dum dum
Its a heavenly pop hit,
Its something that we're humming as
We swoop low on trees, or we sweep under carpets,
We can dive into suns though its not recommended,
We can hover, silent, and listen, closely...

It all seems, (all seems)
Larger than life to me,
I find it, (find it)
Hard to believe,

So where was our home,
Well, our home was in tears,
For it's fruit has gone bad,
They'd been that way for years
Yet their lives are elsatic,
They should be fantastic,
They should be expanding.

Dum de dum dum
Dum de dum dum
It's a heavenly pop hit,
If anyone wants it.

Dum de dum dum
Dum de dum dum
It's a heavenly pop hit,
For anybody,
For those that still want it.
Heavenly Pop Hit by The Chills

A Punk song from the 70s...Sadly the band name escapes me...

To paraphrase...

"Don't wanna be cremated or buried in a grave,
Just put me in a plastic Bag and leave me on the Pave(beat)ment"!

The Arcade Fire - Haiti

Régine Chassagne wrote the song.



Another favourite of mine...

"Peace is a dream, and dreams are for sleepers" Destroyer 666 - Genesis To Genocide

They have a large barge with a radio antenna tower on it that they would charge up and discharge

"I don't care what they say
i'm in love with you"

These are my favorite lines from the song by Leona Lewis

And all the times I've been there, they didn't mean a thing
At least not to you, but I know they meant something to me
And I wish that I could give up, is that what you want from me?
Because I'm still your friend even if you don't want me to be

"failing is not just for failures it's for everyone, failures just have more experience"
Listener - Failing is not Just for Failures

Love this since I've felt myself as a failure lately

The moon upon the ocean
is swept around in motion
but without ever knowing
the reason for its flowing
in motion on the ocean
the moon still keeps on moving
the waves still keep on waving
and I still keep on going

an armed robber stepped to a bank and told everyone to put their hands in
the air, a Christian minister gives his benediction while the congregation hold
their hands in the air, love the image of the happy Buddha with his hands in the air,
hands up if you're confused - penny for a thought by Saul Williams

"who would jesus bomb?" - David Rovics

all your dreams and your lovers wont protect you
they're only passing through you in the end
they'll leave you stripped of all they can get to
and wait for you to come back again

-'Into the Ground' by Ten Feet Deep (myspace.com/tenfeetdeepband)

"My body turns and yearns for a sleep / That won't ever come
It's never over / My kingdom for a kiss upon her shoulder
It's never over / all my riches for her smiles when I slept so soft against her...
It's never over / All my blood for the sweetness of her laughter...
It's never over / She's a tear that hangs inside my soul forever..."
-'Lover You Should Have Come Over' by Jeff Buckley

"I've got no hands to tie behind my back,
....and I'm sparking like a heart attack"
