THIS TIME OF NIGHT By New Order 1984/5
We all feel the same All pleasure and nothing to gain I've known you from the start I've grown used to your wooden heart Now you know my name You search your empty brain in vain If you don't change your ways, You'll end up here with neon rays Without you they'll never know Without you my life won't grow Without you they'll never show Without you the night won't go Without you I'm left alone Without you I'm on my own Without you I lay here in pain Without you I've gone insane
Now you must decide What good's a lie when you've nothing to hide? Remarks, they'll never show They're dumb like you, they never will know It's time we said goodbye Bury your head and silence your cry I've known the feel of pain: Join our world and play our game Without you they'll never know Without you my life won't grow Without you they'll never show Without you the night won't go Without you I'm left alone Without you I'm on my own Without you my life's a waste Just for you I left my place Without you I'm left alone Without you I'm on my own Without you I lay here in pain Without you I've gone insane
(Whatever you may think of me, Don't ever take my dignity Whatever you may do to me, Don't crucify my dignity)

Ben Folds 5 Alice Childress -------------------
Some summers in the evening after six or so I walk on down the hill And maybe buy a beer I think about my friends Sometimes I wish they lived out here But they wouldn't dig this town No they wouldn't dig this town.
Try not to think about it, Alice Childress Try not to think about it anymore Try not to think about it, Alice Childress Anymore, no not anymore
Alice, the world is full of ugly things That you can't change Pretend it's not that way It's my idea of faith You can blow it off And say there's good in nearly everyone
Just give them all a chance Alice, give them all a chance
Try not to think about it, Alice Childress Try not to think about it anymore Try not to think about it, Alice Childress Anymore, no not anymore
No it didn't work out No it didn't work out the way we thought it would No it didn't work out An arranged marriage is not so good
Thank God it's you Y'know your timing is impeccable I'm not fooling you I don't know what to do Some dude just knocked me cold And left me on the sidewalk Took everything I had Everything I had
Try not to think about it, Alice Childress Try not to think about it anymore It's getting late where you are, Alice Childress Anymore, no not anymore Anymore, no not anymore

"Anna Goodman gave me finished lyrics which were supposed to be a parody of my writing style. I actually liked about six lines and rewrote the rest because it had a neat feel. She got the name from a mental patient she'd worked with who had thrown a bucket of mopwater on her. I later found out that there was an Alice Childress playwrite who coincidentally recentely died. I called Anna and she was happy, but not so surprised since she believes in the forces behind coincidences." - Ben Folds
"That whole thing is weird because it turns out that Alice Childress was an African woman who was held captive until her death. And people ask me if that's what it's about, and I'm like, 'nooooo...', though its cool that they hear that in there. But Anna helped me with that one, the way that song was written was real weird. I asked all my friends to write a bunch of lyrics, they didn't have to be good, and I would write music to them in five minutes. The lyrics are always a problem, so I thought if someone writes me the lyrics, I don't see why I shouldn't be able to write the music. She gave me these lyrics, and the only thing that I kept was 'try not to think about it Alice Childress'. I read these words and it was all kinda poking fun at my style. Something about that line just started to do something for me, and I re-wrote all the verses. The idea was that if I had all the lyrics for I could make the album in one day... in the end it took six months!" - Ben Folds

Maroon 5 - This Love
I was so high I did not recognize The fire burning in her eyes The chaos that controlled my mind Whispered goodbye and she got on a plane Never to return again But always in my heart
This love has taken its toll on me She said Goodbye too many times before And her heart is breaking in front of me I have no choice cause I won't say goodbye anymore
I tried my best to feed her appetite Keep her coming every night So hard to keep her satisfied Kept playing love like it was just a game Pretending to feel the same Then turn around and leave again
This love has taken its toll on me She said Goodbye too many times before And her heart is breaking in front of me I have no choice cause I won't say goodbye anymore
I'll fix these broken things Repair your broken wings And make sure everything's alright My pressure on her hips Sinking my fingertips Into every inch of you Cause I know that's what you want me to do

I never care much for lyrics, hence no 'Lyric of the Day' from me now, tomorrow or likely at any time.

today:
Idlewild - Scottish fiction, Words by Edwin Morgan:
It isn’t in the mirror, it isn’t on the page It’s a red hearted vibration Pushing through the walls of dark imagination Finding no equation There’s a red road rage, but it’s not road rage It’s asylum seekers engulfed by a grudge
Scottish friction, Scottish fiction
It isn’t in the castle, it isn’t in the mist It’s a calling of the waters as they break to show The new black death with reactors aglow Do you think your security will keep you in purity You will not shake us off Above or below
Scottish friction, Scottish fiction

Finch - What It Is To Burn
Today's on fire The sky is beating above me, and I am blister I walk these signs of blasphemy, every day And still...
Like a bad star, I'm falling faster down to her She's the only one who knows, what it is to burn
I feel diseased Is there no sympathy, for the sun The sky's still fire But I am safe in here, from the world outside
So tell me What's the price to pay for glory
Like a bad star, I'm falling faster down to her She's the only one who knows, what it is to burn
Today is fine, and she burns Today is fine, and she burns She burns She burns She burns She burns She burns She burns
Like a bad star, I'm falling faster down to her She's the only one who knows, what it is to burn

The Damning Well featuring Wes Borland, Richard Patrick, Josh Freese Lyrics- Awakening
Out of control of a history untold It begins with the father of sin I walk alone in the garden of stones I turn into the monster within Life is too long for me Life is too wrong for me
Cause there's something that I realize That I miss being human I realize That I miss being human Nothing Times
I lose control as the story unfolds I have been like a knife to bare skin I walk alone like a king with no throne I burn up from the monster within Life is too long for me Life is too wrong for me
Cause there's something that I realize That I miss being human I realize That I miss being human Nothing Times
I like hunting the pieces I like hunting the pieces I like hunting the pieces Cause I have come to need this I like hunting the pieces I like hunting the pieces Cause I have come to need this Shell
Cause there's something that I realize That I miss being human Cause there's something that I realize That I miss being human I teach lies That I miss being human I teach lies That I miss being human I teach lies
