from "Tom's Diner" ~ Suzanne Vega
Oh, this rain
It will continue
Through the morning
As I'm listening
To the bells
Of the cathedral
I am thinking
Of your voice...
And of the midnight picnic
Once upon a time
Before the rain began...
I finish up my coffee
It's time to catch the train
next: cathedral

from "Rocky Mountain High" by John Denver
He climbed CATHEDRAL mountains
He saw silver CLOUDS below
He saw everything as far as you can see
And they say that he got crazy once
And he tried to touch the sun
And he lost a friend, but kept the memory

from "Anna Molly" by Incubus
A cloud hangs over this city by the sea.
I watch the ships pass and wonder if she might be (might be)
Out there and sober as well from loneliness.
Please do persist girl, it's time we met and made a mess.

Beautiful Mess Lyrics~ Swing Out Sister
Let's pretend things are fine for a while
That they always were
Was it you, was it me
Did we think we'd be free
Like we were before
Dreams that we were searching for
They don't matter anymore
There's one more for the road
Then I'll be gone
Hey hey hey hey
Where we're heading is anybody's guess
Hey hey hey hey
All that's left is one big beautiful mess
Hey hey hey hey
We'll get over it someday we'll forget
Hey hey hey hey
All that's left is one big beautiful mess
next: matter

from "Darkness" by Disturbed
Don't turn away

The words I've spoken
Dare to believe
Over one last time
Then I'll let the
Darkness cover me
Deny everything
Slowly walk away
To breathe again
On my own

from "Pantomime" by Incubus

Hmmmm...hot imagery there, Gams!
from "Picture To Burn", my least-favorite Taylor Swift hit
To 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 been a lie
So watch me strike a match on all my wasted time
As far as I’m concerned,
You’re just another picture to burn
next: perfect

Most definitely a nice bit of provocative lyrics there, Siren. Add Incubus' lead singer, Brandon Boyd's sexy voice into the mix, and the car windows steam just driving down the road, listening.
from "Pretty Noose" by Soundgarden
I caught the moon today
Pick it up
And throw it away all right
I got the perfect steal
A cleaner love
With a dirty feel all right
Fall out and take the bait
Eat the fruit
And kiss the snake goodnight

TURN off the lights and light a CANDLE

And I'll do the same thing to you

Tear Drops ~ Lee Andrews and the Hearts
I sit in my room looking out at the rain
My tears are like crystals, they cover my window pane
I'm thinking of our lost romance and how it should have been
Oh if we only could start over again
I know you never forgive me dear, for running out on you
I was wrong to take a chance with somebody new
I sit in my room looking out at the rain
My tears are like crystals, they cover my window pane
Next: Pane

She's well acquainted with the touch of the velvet hand
Like a lizard on a window pane....

I seem to be stuck on Incubus lately - this one is from "Clean".
Don't you dare come to bed with that ambiguous look in your eye,
I'd sooner sleep by an open fire and wake up fried.
Say what you will, say what you mean.
You could never offend, your dirty words come out clean.
Tomorrow, what price will I pay?

Poor Unfortunate Souls ~ The Little Mermaid
Now it's happened once or twice

But on the whole I've been a saint
To those poor unfortunate souls

from "The Scorpion" by Megadeth
My self, I'm centered in
There's nothing else, there's never been
And I dream, to be left alone
With the sadness, the madness of my own
Look deep, into my soul
It's black as coal, like a bullet hole
Fear not, get off your knees
There's no defense, you'll do what I please, oh-oh!
next word: black

from "The Long Black Veil" by Johnny Cash
Ten years ago on a cold dark night
There was someone killed 'neath thee town hall light
There were few at the scene, but they all agree
That the slayer who ran looked a lot like me
The judge said son what is your alibi
If you were somewhere else then you won't have to die
I spoke not a word though it meant my life
For I had been in the arms of my best friend's wife
She walks these hills
In a LONG BLACK veil
She visits my grave when the night winds wail
Nobody knows, nobody sees,
Nobody knows but me
next: long

from Merle Haggard's "It's Been A Great Afternoon"
Last night we had a h*ll-raisin' time
Nippin' on tequila and suckin' on limes
Sunrise chased the good time away
And "good morning" would have been the wrong thing to say
'Cause the poundin' in the top of my head
Hey didn't leave me any too soon
I can't say we've had a good morning
But babe it's been a GREAT AFTERNOON
next: great
