Buff, NY Favorite MUSIC lines

Broken, Bones and the will
Capacity to disappear in misery saves
Soaking, pain as a thrill, hate to instill
Compassion's a cage

Forgiving the father
Read the story on my skin
I'll be the martyr
Falling from his grace again

Sunken, sooner or later
We crawl our way back into our favorite hole
Drunken, swallow the savior
And follow him to hang from the highest pole

Forgiving the father
Read the story on my skin
Tell me more about the man I should have been
I'll be the martyr
Falling from his grace again
This is where the end begins

 

Walkin' to the south out of Roanoke
I caught a trucker out of Philly
Had a nice long smoke
But he's a headed west from the Cumberland Gap
To Johnson City, Tennessee

And I gotta get a move on fit for the sun
I hear my baby callin' my name
And I know that she's the only one
And if I die in Raleigh
At least I will die free

So rock me mama like a wagon wheel
Rock me mama anyway you feel
Hey mama rock me
Rock me mama like the wind and the rain
Rock me mama like a south-bound train
Hey mama rock me

edit: wording to follow TOS

 

I don't hate you
but I'm trying to save you
while there's still something
let to save!

 

A bout of deep depression.
Can't seem to move it forward.
My lying eyes lie awake.
Not sure what I am after.
I never died before.
Can't help what happened yesterday.
I never stoned the crow, no.
Flip through endless stories.
A life of hand-written pain.
No one can share this hurt that is mine, mine, mine.
I never died before.
Can't be what happened yesterday.
I shouldn't stone the crow, no.
Ride on!
Same old city, same old tale.
No matter how I try,
No matter what I say,
I'm blamed, I'm shamed,
I'm judged unfairly.
So now I've died before.
It feels as bad as yesterday.
I never stoned the crow, no.
You too have died before.
I fought as hard as yesterday
I never stoned the crow, stoned the crow, no, no.

 

Well they cast me out when the word spread around
That I never sang in the church.
And it took one night for the town to decide
I'm afflicted by the curse.

 

The gun is loaded when the glass is full
Down the hatch and the trigger's pulled
Off the wagon and back onto the stool
I know that when I stare into your eyes
I can see all the years of lies
Ghosts and demons you never exorcised

 

I can ride my bike with no handlebars
No handlebars
No handlebars
I can ride my bike with no handlebars
No handlebars
No handlebars
Look at me
look at me
hands in the air like it?s good to be
ALIVE
and I?m a famous rapper
even when the paths?re all crookedy
I can show you how to do-si-do
I can show you how to scratch a record
I can take apart the remote control
And I can almost put it back together
I can tie a knot in a cherry stem
I can tell you about Leif Ericson
I know all the words to ?De Colores?
And ?I?m Proud to be an American?
Me and my friend saw a platypus
Me and my friend made a comic book
And guess how long it took
I can do anything that I want cause look

I can keep rhythm with no metronome
No metronome
No metronome

I can see your face on the telephone
On the telephone
On the telephone

Look at me
Look at me
Just called to say that it?s good to be
ALIVE
In such a small world
All curled up with a book to read
I can raise funds open up a thrift store
I can make a living off a magazine
I can design an engine sixty four
Miles to a gallon of gasoline
I can make new antibiotics
I can make computers survive aquatic conditions
I know how to run a business
And I can make you wanna buy a product
Movers shakers and producers
Me and my friends understand the future
I see the strings that control the systems
I can do anything with no assistance

I can lead the nation with a microphone
With a microphone
With a microphone

I can split on atom of a molecule
Of a molecule
Of a molecule

Look at me
Look at me
Driving and I won?t stop
And it feels so good to be
Alive and on top
My reach is global
My tower secure
My cause is noble
My power is pure
I can hand out a million vaccinations
Or let?em all die in exasperation
Have?em all grilled leavin lacerations
Have?em all killed by assassination
I can make anybody go to prison
Just because I don?t like?em and
I can do anything with no permission
I have it all under my command

I can guide a missile by satellite
By satellite
By satellite
I can hit a target through a telescope
Through a telescope
Through a telescope

I can end the planet in a holocaust
In a holocaust
In a holocaust
In a holocaust
In a holocaust
In a holocaust
In a holocaust
I can ride my bike with no handlebars
No handle bars
No handlebars
I can ride my bike with no handlebars
No handlebars
no handlebars

roses sprout from empty lots and sidewalk cracks

Riding the underground
Swimming in sweat
A rumble above and below
Hey cop dont you know?
The heats on alright
The hot summer day didnt quit for the night

1277 express to heaven
Speeding along like dynamite
1277 express to heaven
Rumbles the steel like a dogfight
You caught me in its spell
Trying to leave but you know darn well
The heat from below can burn your eyes out

Blackened out eyes
Scratched on the wall
Stoned out looks from the crowd
The king will not know
On the wall it was said
The flash of his cards was sprayed with red

1277 express to heaven
Speeding along like dynamite
1277 express to heaven
Rumbles the steel like a dogfight
You caught me in its spell
Trying to leave but you know darn well
The heat from below can burn your eyes out

 

echo echo one-nine
hear the call through fault lines
smoke signals old rhymes
shorted lights in store signs
spelled in a broken code
find that it is time to
breath build bend and refine you
we sky tenants
give it all but wont give up
radio soul antennas
radio to lift spirits
call sign commando
m.o. is independence
scream till the walls fall,
dissolve all the limits

occupied minds
unemployed skills
desolation
worn out
torn down
just for now thrill seekers
slanging
test tube babies in beakers
where gun blasts pump straight from the speakers
the system where the
poor get poorly paid
to hold the ladder
where the rich get ricocheted
into the stratosphere
and in between people are rushin? like vladimir
with metals to make their status clear
get us out of here

we need heroes
build them
don?t put your fist up
fill them
with our hopes and our hearts and our hands
we?re the architects of our last stand

we need heroes
build them
don?t put your fist up
fill them
with our hopes and our hearts and our hands
we?re the architects of our last stand

there?s a war going on for your mind
those who seek to occupy it will stop at nothing
the battlefield is everywhere
there is no sanctuary
there are no civilians
you have two choices
surrender or enlist

what kind of person are you
always the first to argue
or never down to stick your neck out
cause it hurts you far too much
to see your rep suffer
set you up a buffer
well neither is enough for us cut from a tougher brand of duct tape
the propaganda?s stuck on us like sock pajamas
spread like a virus
through accepted thoughts and proper manners
but off the cameras
something?s simmering across the land
about to bubble up
and knock the lids off of the pots and pans

we are non stop juggernauts
stomp ziggurats
spit manifestos
by terabytes and gigawatts
shock paradigms
give sense to a score
throw thoughts through the sky
activate twenty more
in these high and dry times
expectorate on dogma
pragmatic sycophants
divide and conquer
we build bridges offer
hard work and prosper
as hand made heroes brought to you by no sponsors

we need heroes
build them
don?t put your fist up
fill them
with our hopes and our hearts and our hands
we?re the architects of our last stand

we need heroes
build them
don?t put your fist up
fill them
with our hopes and our hearts and our hands
we?re the architects of our last stand

all free minds to the front
all free minds to the front
we call upon women
we call upon children
we call upon the handicapped
the infirmed
the week of heart
we need your courage
your dedication
your passion
your commitment
gather up your platinum
melt it down
gather up your gold
melt it down
gather up your bronze
your silver
your aluminum
melt it down
melt it down
melt it down

 

walking through winter, through snow-white fields
colder than cold ... for several weeks
and the lost fire's burning miles away
and the wind whispers stories in her ears

and she's asking: "do you hear these heavenly voices?
do you hear the preacher who wants you to pray?"

and this night so much colder than every night
and she says, she likes winter and winter trees
and the sun seens so far away tonight
in the dark and deep, frozen water the light
of the moon under which she dies
of the moon under which we cry

...death knocking at the door ... I must let him in ...
life like a river flows ... outside ... stay alive!
ten-thousand good reasons to survive ...

and she's asking: "do you hear these heavenly voices?
do you hear the preacher who wants you to pray?"

walking through winter, through snow white fields
colder than cold ... for several weeks
and the lost fire's burning miles away
and the wind whispers stories in her ears

stay alive ...my dear ... I kiss your cold hands ...
first time ... please stay alive ... I'm loving you ... you're
loving me ... imagine that you were at home ...
this night ... please try it
don't leave me alone

Wolfsheim

 

Boy who always did what he was told,
was promised to be king when he was old.

 

In a crooked little town
they were lost and never found
falling leaves
falling leaves
falling leaves to the ground

And if it's bad
Don't let it get you down, you can take it
And if it hurts
Don't let them see you cry, you can take it

Hold your head up, hold your head up
Hold your head up, hold your head high

And if they stare
Just let them burn their eyes on you moving
And if they shout
Don't let them change a thing what you're doing

Hold your head up, hold your head up
Hold your head up, hold your head high

 

In a garage beside a house
there is a luxury sedan
and for his next monthly installment
he's gonna go out with a bang.

 

Ain't it fun when you're always on the run
Ain't it fun when your friends despise what you've become
Well, Ain't it fun when you broken up every band that you ever begun
Ain't it fun when you know that you're gonna die young


It's such fun
Such fun

 

'Cus I'll be there, in the back of your mind
From the day we met 'til you were making me cry
And it's just too bad, you've already had the best days
The best days of your life

Ain't it a shame?
A shame that everytime you hear my name
Brought up in a casual conversation
You can't think ...straight

And ain't it sad?
You can forget about what we had
Take a look at her and do you like what you see?
Or do you wish it was me

CHORUS:
'Cus I'll be there, in the back of your mind
From the day we met to the very last night
And it's just too bad, you've already had the best days
The best days of you life

And does she know?
Know about the times you used to hold me
Wrapped me in your arms and how you told me
I'm the... the only one

I heard about
Yeah, someone told me once, when you were out
She went a little crazy ran her mouth about me
Ain't jealousy funny?

CHORUS
'Cus I'll be there, in the back of your mind
From the day we met to the very last night
And it's just too bad, you've already had the best days
The best days of you life

...with me was a fairytale love
I was head-over-heals 'til you threw away "us"
And it's just too bad you've, already had the best days
The best days of your life

I heard you're gonna get married
Have a nice little family
Live out my dreams with someone new

But, I've been told that a cheater
Is always a cheater
I've got my pride, and she's got you...

CHORUS
'Cus I'll be there, in the back of your mind
From the day we met 'til you were making me cry
And it's just too bad, you've already had the best days
The best days of your life...

Of your life
Oh, oh, yeah
You're gonna think of me
You're gonna think of me in your liiiiiiiiiiiife
Oh, oh, yeah
It's a shame, it's a shame...It's a shame

 

Raping the geek
And hustling the freak
Like a hunchback juice
On a sentimental... noose
Operation filth
They love to love the wealth
Of an SS whore
Making scary... sounds

Crawl onto me
Sink into me
Die for me
Living dead girl
Crawl onto me
Sink into me
Die for me
Living dead girl

 

State the obvious,
I didn?t get my perfect fantasy
I realized you love yourself
More that you could ever love me
So go and tell your friends
That I?m obsessive and crazy,
That?s fine
I'll tell mine you're gay
And by the way,

I hate that stupid old pickup truck,
You never let me drive
You?re a redneck, heartbreak
Who?s really bad at lying
So watch me strike a match
On all my wasted time
As far as I?m concerned,
You?re just another picture to burn.

There?s no time for tears
I?m just sitting here planning my revenge
There?s nothing stopping me
From going out with all of your best friends
And if you come around saying sorry to me
My daddy?s going to show you how sorry you?ll be

?Cause I hate that stupid old pickup truck,
You never let me drive
You?re a redneck, heartbreak
Who?s really bad at lying, yeah
So watch me strike a match
On all my wasted time
As far as I?m concerned,
You?re just another picture to burn.

And if you?re missing me
You better keep it to yourself
?Cause coming back around here
Would be bad for your health

?Cause I hate that stupid old pickup truck,
You never let me drive
You?re a redneck, heartbreak
Who?s really bad at lying, yeah
So watch me strike a match
On all my wasted time
In case you haven?t heard,

I really, really hate that stupid old pickup truck,
You never let me drive
You?re a redneck, heartbreak
Who?s really bad at lying, yeah
So watch me strike a match
On all my wasted time
As far as I?m concerned,
You?re just another picture to burn.
Burn, burn, burn, baby burn.
Just another picture to burn
Baby burn

 

This is my rifle. This is my gun.
This is for fighting, and this is for fun.

 

Smiling faces tear your body to the ground
Covered red, that only we can see
Here, in a ball that they made
From the snow on the ground
See it rolling away
Wild eyes to the sky
They'll never, never know

Hey, there's a snowman
Hey what a snowman
Pray for the snowman
Ooh, ooh, what a snowman
They say a snow year's a good year
Filled with the love of all who lie so deep

 

This door is always open,
This door is always open,
No one has the guts to shut us out.
But if we have to go now,
I guess there?s always hope that,
Some place will be serving after hours.

This night is winding down but
Time means nothing,
As always at this hour
Time means nothing,
One final final round cos
Time means nothing,
Say that you?ll stay
Say that you?ll stay

We?re finally drunk enough that,
We?re finally soaking up,
The hours that everyone else throws away.
And if we have to go now,
I guess there?s always hope,
Tomorrow night will be more of the same.

This night is winding down but
Time means nothing,
As always at this hour
Time means nothing,
[ We Are Scientists Lyrics are found on www.songlyrics.com ]
One final final round cos
Time means nothing,
Say that you?ll stay
Say that you?ll stay
Say that you?ll stay.

We?re all right where we?re supposed to be,
We?re all right where we?re supposed to be,
We?re all right where we?re supposed to be,
(Time means nothing)
We?re all right where we?re supposed to be,
(Time means nothing)

This door is always open,
This door is always open,
No one has the guts to shut us out.
No one has the guts to shut us out.

Time means nothing,
Time means nothing,
One final final round cos
Time means nothing,
Say that you?ll stay
Say that you?ll stay
Say that you?ll stay.



We Are Scientists - After hours

 

As I get closer, my dreams get farther
I climb that ladder, but you kick it over
Thirsty for water, you give me vinegar
When I drink your medicine, it just makes me sicker

 

I hitched a ride, until the coast
To leave behind, all of my ghosts
Searching for something, I couldn't find at home

 

I'm sick and I'm twisted
I'm broken you can't fix it
Don't make me, cause I'll do it
Red button and we'll all go
