"Disintegration is the best album ever!" - Kyle

I'll roshambo you for it...

[Andy Tacker]

As I look into your eyes I see the sunrise
The light behind your face helps me realise

Will we sleep and sometimes love until the moon shines
Maybe the next time I’ll be yours and maybe you’ll be mine

I don’t know if it’s even in your mind at all
It could be me
At this moment in time
Is it in your mind at all
It should be me, it could be me
Forever

Wandering through life will love come home to you
And the love you want forever, will they be true to you

Will we sleep and sometimes love until the moon shines
Maybe the next time I’ll be yours and maybe you’ll be mine

Easy, ready, willing, over time
Where does it stop where do you dare me to draw the line
You’ve got the body now you want my soul
Don’t even think about it say no go

[galathaea]

keeping the mood...

Words like violence
Break the silence
Come crashing in
Into my little world
Painful to me
Pierce right through me
Can’t you understand
Oh my little girl

All I ever wanted
All I ever needed
Is here in my arms
Words are very unnecessary
They can only do harm

Vows are spoken
To be broken
Feelings are intense
Words are trivial
Pleasures remain
So does the pain
Words are meaningless
And forgettable

All I ever wanted
All I ever needed
Is here in my arms
Words are very unnecessary
They can only do harm

Enjoy the silence

[Mick]

you meant keeping the mode I'll slid two in for the emerald isle.

Midnight, our sons and daughters
Were cut down and taken from us.
Hear their heartbeat
We hear their heartbeat.

In the wind we hear their laughter
In the rain we see their tears.
Hear their heartbeat, we hear their heartbeat.

Night hangs like a prisoner
Stretched over black and blue.
Hear their heartbeats
We hear their heartbeats.

In the trees our sons stand naked
Through the walls our daughter cry
See their tears in the rainfall.

Earth, sky, scenery.
Is she coming back again?
Men of straw, snooker hall.
Words that build or destroy
Dirt dry, bone, sand and stone.
Barbed wire fence cut me down.
I'd like to be around in a spiral staircase
To the higher ground.

And I, like a firework, explode.
Roman candle, lightning, lights up the sky.
In cracked streets, trample underfoot.
Side-step, sidewalk.
I see you stare into space.
Have I got closer now, behind the face?

Oh, tell me, Cherry you dance with me
Turn me around tonight
Up through the spiral staircase to the higher ground.
Slide show, seaside town.
Coca-cola, football radio, radio, radio, radio, radio, radio.

Playground schoolbell rings again
Rainclouds come to play again
Has no one told you she's not breathing
Hello, I am your mind, giving you someone to talk to, hello...

If I smile and don't beleive
Soon I know I'll wake from this dream
Don't try to fix me I'm not broken
Hello, I am the lie living for you so you can hide, don't cry....

Suddenly I know I'm not sleeping
Hello, I'm still here, all thats left of yesterday....

I don't like poems.
Because poems can't keep me "awake".
I spend about a thousand yens a week only for coffee..
I luv cafe..

Your poem sounds nice, like a sad love song.
This is a song in a Wade Hayes's album- a CD Fiona gave me on my birthday,
around 3 weeks ago, an old song, but sounds cool.

We were a half mile high on the ferris wheel
At our old county fair
i didn't even know we had trouble until
She told me way up there
That's when my life started spinning around
My world came crashing into the ground
The day that she left Tulsa

In the Chevy in the pouring down rain
with the caution lights flashing in the passing lane
From the bridge I watched out dreams going down the drain
In a Chevy in a hurry in the pouring down rain
.......

Curtain down, Curtain down !!!!!!!

[Mick]

(Black flash)
Black flash over my own love
Tell me of my eyes
Black flash come though my own life
Telling these things
And I believe them
And I believe in you


White flash sees the sky
And it turns its side from you
She won't turn my back
And I know you turn so blue
And you know
And your sky is feeling blue
And your heart
So cold when I'm with you
And you feel
Like no one told you to
And your time is your side
And your time with me
Ah, don't talk to me
Ah, don't talk to me
Don't talk to me


You know
Like no one told you how
But you know
Though the king that howls has howled
But you feel like sentimental
But you don't care
If I just share it in your heart
(Heart...)


Hopelessly
So hopelessly
I'm breaking through for you and me
And you don't
Though no one told you to
And you found out
Where you were going, where to
You're through with me
But I know that you will be back
For more


And you know
And though no one told you so
And you know, blue sky
Like a harder shade of blue
And you walk
When you want
To let go
Me, I'm the outside, tell me fade away
Drop me down but don't break me
In your sleep


In your sleep, inside
It's in your heart and mine
Whole sea is dark
It's in your heart and mine


Sweetly, those will come
Loving is on your side walking through
So let me in your heart
Your beat is like something...


They...
Run...
See say you're sad and reach by
So say you're sad above beside
Oh stay sad above beside
So stay sad above we said


You know I don't
No one told you how
(And you don't)
(And you wipe sweat off your white brow)
And you care
And no one told you tried
And your heart
Is left out from the side


And the rain beats down
And the shame goes down
And this rain keeps on coming down
And this sky
Tonight...


You know "S" "O" "N" "G", why
You're going go join to God
You know "S" "O" "N" "G", why
Give away some him no lie
Give away some my de day no


You know
And though no one told you sky
And you feel
Like you pretend you can
You say go, you live
Go live outside of me
Don't you leave
Don't leave out part of me
Then I can feel
Like I feel before
Like I hurt now
And I see the floor
If you pick me up
Bits and pieces on this floor

Depeche Moding?

[siawos]

this was from a forum.....

I COME FROM THE THRONE BEARING A MESSAGE FROM ALMIGHTY GOD! ALMIGHT GOD HAS HEARD THE MESSAGE YOUR BELOVED PREACHER HAS JUST DELIVERED AND WILL GRANT IT IF THAT IS YOUR DESIRE;BUT ONLY AFTER I ,AS HIS MESSENGER HAVE DELIVERED THE FULL IMPORT OF WHAT YOUR PREACHER ASKED FOR.

For in actuality, you have prayed not one,but two prayers,both of which have reached GOD.
You heard your servants prayer,the uttered part of it.The most important words of his prayer were "grant us the victory,o Lord our God.

When you pray to God for victory you pray for many unmentioned results which follow it,which MUST follow it.God the Father commandeth me to deliver the unspoken part of the prayer.

LISTEN!

O Lord or Father,
our young patriots,idols of our hearts go forth to battle--be Thou near them
With them in spirit we also go forth from the sweet peace of our beloved firesides to smite the foe
help us to tear their soldiers to bloody shreds with our shells;
help us to cover their smiling fields with the pale forms of their patriot dead;
help us to drown the thunder of the guns with the shrieks of their wounded writing in pain;
help us to lay waste their humble homes with a hurricane of fire;
help us to wring the hearts of their unoffending widows with unavailing grief;
help us to turn them out roofless with their children to wander unfriended the wastes of
their desolated land,in rags and hunger..and thirst,sports of the sun flames of summer and
the icy winds of winter
BROKEN IN SPIRIT,WORN WITH TRAVAIL,BEGGING FOR THE REFUGE OF THE GRAVE AND DENIED IT

Do this for our sakes who adore thee our lord

Blast their hopes,blight their livesprotract their bitter pilgramage,make heavy their steps,
water the way with their tears,stain the white snow with the blood of their wounded feet.

We ask all this in the spirit of love of Him Who Is the source of love,

AFTER A PAUSE:

"This is what you have asked;if you still desire it speak,the messenger of God waits."

there was a silence and afterward the faithful gathered and declared in one voice that the
stranger was a LUNATIC; there was no sense in what he said.

[Babie_girl]

Why

Why live if you know you're gonna die?
Why dream if you know it makes you cry?
Why care if you won't be there forever?

Why do you bother to try when it all goes away?
Why is there one to many days?
Why live if you will never be important?

Why know the meaning of important?
Why stay when the earth is moving?
Why go when you miss out on staying?

Why explore when no answers come to life?
Why ask when you won't get no answers?
Why answer if you don't know the truth?

Well... why not? Other than because you will die and cry and won't be here forever..

Beautiful poems and quotes, guys.

[NoHero]

bittida en morgon innan solen upprann
innan foglarna började sjunga
bergatroliet friade till fager ungersven
hon hade en falskeliger tunga

herr mannelig herr mannelig trolofven i mig
för det jag bjuder så gerna
i kunnen väl svara endast ja eller nej
om i viljen eller ej

eder vill jag gifva de gångare tolf
som gå uti rosendelunde
aldrig har det varit någon sadel uppå dem
ej heller betsel uti munnen

herr mannelig herr mannelig trolofven i mig
för det jag bjuder så gerna
i kunnen väl svara endast ja eller nej
om i viljen eller ej

sådana gåfvor toge jag väl emot
on du vore en kristelig qvinna
men nu så är du det värsta bergatroll
af neckens och djävulens stämma

herr mannelig herr mannelig trolofven i mig
för det jag bjuder så gerna
i kunnen väl svara endast ja eller nej
om i viljen eller ej:

bergatrollet ut på dörren sprang
hon rister och jämrar sig svåra
hade jag fått den fager ungersven
så hade jag mistat min plåga

huu ... love can be so painful

[Tom Frohman]

The poem sort of looks like German but it isn't. What language is it?
