[Julius_Van_Der_Beak]

My love she speaks like silence
Without ideals or violence
She doesn’t have to say she’s faithful
Yet she’s true, like ice, like fire
People carry roses
Make promises by the hours
My love she laughs like the flowers
Valentines can’t buy her

In the dime stores and bus stations
People talk of situations
Read books, repeat quotations
Draw conclusions on the wall
Some speak of the future
My love she speaks softly
She knows there’s no success like failure
And that failure’s no success at all

The cloak and dagger dangles
Madams light the candles
In ceremonies of the horsemen
Even the pawn must hold a grudge
Statues made of matchsticks
Crumble into one another
My love winks, she does not bother
She knows too much to argue or to judge

Heres a song for g.w bush and some other current and ex world leaders:

"Corrupt
You corrupt
And bring corruption to all that you touch
Hold
You'll behold
And beholden for all that you've done
Spell
Cast a spell
Cast a spell on the country you run
And risk
You will risk
You will risk all their lives and their souls

And burn
You will burn
You will burn in hell, yeah you'll burn in hell
You'll burn in hell
Yeah you'll burn in hell
For your sins

And our freedom's consuming itself
What we've become
It's contrary to what we want
Take a bow

Death
You bring death and destruction to all that you touch
Pay
You must pay
You must pay for your crimes against the earth
Yeah hex
Feed the hex
Feed the hex on the country you love
And beg
You will beg
You will beg for their lives and their souls

And burn
You will burn
You will burn in hell, yeah you'll burn in hell
You'll burn in hell
Yeah you'll burn in hell
You'll burn in hell
Yeah you'll burn in hell
For your sins"

I'm a rambler from Manchester way
I get all me pleasure the hard moorland way
I may be a wageslave on Monday
But I am a free man on Sunday

 

[Julius_Van_Der_Beak]

Do you know what it means to be doomed?
Do you know what it means to be cursed?
When the blue eyes are washing their mouths in the south
You know they're hiding bodies north.

Did you know that your boot heels are stuck?
Losing feet weren't the rabbits' good luck
When the devil is resting his head on your door
You are done for
Done for
Done for.

 

[Julius_Van_Der_Beak]

And if my thought-dreams could be seen
They’d probably put my head in a guillotine.

 

[Cellmold]

Yes there comes a booming sound
It used to come from underground
Now it emanates
From a kind of welfare state
Of the soul
Yeah baby of the soul

And of the sweet sweet soul
Let's be certain
Of the deliberate monologue
As sure as if it will fall
Across you
Unto you
Will most certainly leave the doing undone

Come on undone

And we are doing
And we are screwing
Up our lives today
What's that we chanted
It's this we planted
C'mon progeny

 

[Qlip]

But when he came the king before,
He was clad all in red silk.
His hair was like the strands of gold,
His skin was as white as milk.

And "It is no wonder," said the king,
"That my daughter's love you did win.
For if I was a woman, as I am a man,
My bedfellow you would have been."

Master Of Puppets"

End of passion play, crumbling away
I’m your source of self-destruction
Veins that pump with fear, sucking darkest clear
Leading on your death’s construction
Taste me you will see
More is all you need
You’re dedicated to
How I’m killing you

Come crawling faster
Obey your master
Your life burns faster
Obey your master
Master

Master of puppets I’m pulling your strings
Twisting your mind and smashing your dreams
Blinded by me, you can’t see a thing
Just call my name, ‘cause I’ll hear you scream
Master
Master
Just call my name, ‘cause I’ll hear you scream
Master
Master

Needlework the way, never you betray
Life of death becoming clearer
Pain monopoly, ritual misery
Chop your breakfast on a mirror
Taste me you will see
More is all you need
You’re dedicated to
How I’m killing you

Come crawling faster
Obey your master
Your life burns faster
Obey your master
Master

Master of puppets I’m pulling your strings
Twisting your mind and smashing your dreams
Blinded by me, you can’t see a thing
Just call my name, ‘cause I’ll hear you scream
Master
Master
Just call my name, ‘cause I’ll hear you scream
Master
Master

Master, master
Where’s the dreams that I’ve been after?
Master, master
You promised only lies
Laughter, laughter
All I hear or see is laughter
Laughter, laughter
Laughing at my cries

Fix me

Hell is worth all that, natural habitat
Just a rhyme without a reason
Never-ending maze, drift on numbered days
Now your life is out of season
I will occupy
I will help you die
I will run through you
Now I rule you too

Come crawling faster
Obey your master
Your life burns faster
Obey your master
Master

Master of puppets I’m pulling your strings
Twisting your mind and smashing your dreams
Blinded by me, you can’t see a thing
Just call my name, ‘cause I’ll hear you scream
Master
Master
Just call my name, ‘cause I’ll hear you scream
Master
Master

Violets of Dawn
(by Eric Andersen)

Take me to the night
I'm tippin' topsy-turvy, turning upside-down;
Hold me tight and whisper what you wish,
For there is no one here around.

Oh you may sing-song me sweet smiles
Regardless of the city's careless frown;
Come watch the no-colors fade blazing
Into petal sprays of violets of dawn.

In blindfold wonderments enchantments
You can lift my wings softly to fly;
Your eyes are like swift fingers reaching out
Into the pockets of my night.

Whirling, twirling, puppy-warm
Before the flashing cloaks of darkness gone;
Come see the no-colors fade blazing
Into petal sprays of violets of dawn.

Some Prince Charming I'll be
On two white steeds to bring you dappled diamond crowns;
And climb your tower, Sleeping Beauty
Before you ever know I've left the ground.

You can wear a Cinderella, Snow White,
Alice Wonderlanded gown;
Come watch the no-colors fade blazing
Into petal sprays of violets of dawn.

But if I seem to wander off in dreamlike looks
Please let me settle slowly;
It's only me just staring out at you,
A seeming stranger, speaking holy.

I don't mean to wake you up
It's only loneliness just coming on;
So let the no-colors fade blazing
Into petal sprays of violets of dawn

Like shadows bursting into mist
Behind the echoes of this nonsense song,
It's just a chasing, whispering trail
Of secret steps, oh see them laughing on.

There's magic in the sleepiness
Of waking to a childish-sounding yawn
Come watch the no-colors fade blazing
Into petal sprays of violets of dawn.


I've always loved those lyrics, and FWIW I'm an INFP (6w5).

 

[Qlip]

Two minstrels walked along the strand
And saw the maiden float to land.

They made a harp of her breastbone,
Whose sound would melt a heart of stone.

They took three locks of her yellow hair,
And with them strung the harp so rare.

They went into her father's hall
To play the harp before them all,

But when they laid it on a stone
The harp began to play alone.

The first string sang a doleful sound:
"The bride her younger sister drowned."

The second string as that they tried,
In terror sits the black-haired bride.

The third string sang beneath their bow,
"And surely now her tears will flow

But you don’t know how to read
The look on my face when it says
“Yeah, I’ve read that book, too”

 

[Evee]

He used to call me DN
That stood for deadly nightshade.
Cause I was filled with poison.
But blessed with beauty and rage.

 

[Evee]

Hopped a grainrail out of pig's eye toward Milwaukee
A deer between the tower and the tracks
Saw right through us
Said, "you don't know where you came from
You don't know where you're going
You think you're you-
You don't know who you are
You're not you
You're everyone else.
You're everyone else.
You're everyone else.
You're everyone else.
You're everyone else.
You're everyone else."

Do not spray into eyes, I have sprayed you into my eyes - Alt J, Taro

 

[Derpravity]

And in the naked light I saw
Ten thousand people, maybe more
People talking without speaking
People hearing without listening
People writing songs that voices never share
And no one dared
Disturb the sound of silence

 

[Ingrid in grids]

Kooky eyes!
Do you want to stay the night?
All my friends think you're a psycho...
That kind of makes me like you more though.

Duran Duran - Come undone:


Ah, it'll take a little time
Might take a little crime to come undone
Now we'll try to stay blind to the hope and fear outside
Hey child, stay wilder than the wind and blow me in to cry.

Who do you need?
Who do you love?
When you come undone
Who do you need?
Who do you love?
When you come undone
Words, playing me deja vu
Like a radio tune, I swear I've heard before
Chill, is it something real?
Or the magic I'm feeding off your fingers
Can't ever keep from falling apart at the seams
Can I believe you're taking my heart to pieces?

 

[PumpkinMayCare]

An old fairytale told me
The simple heart will be prized again
A toad will be our king
And ugly ogres are heroes

Then you'll shake
Your fist at the sky
"Oh why did I rely
On fashions and small fry?"

All promises broken
Feed your people or lose your throne
And forfeit your whole kingdom
I'd sooner lose it than still live in it alone

You were our golden child
But the gentle and the mild
Inherit the earth, while

Your prince's crown
Cracks and falls down
Your castle hollow and cold
You've wandered so far
From the person you are
Let go brother, let go
Cause now we all know

Soon, someone will put a spell on you
Perfume, treasure, sorcery, every trick they know
You will lie in a deep sleep
That's when

Your prince's crown
Cracks and falls down
Your castle hollow and cold
You've wandered so far
From the person you are
Let go brother, let go
Cause now we all know

I found the lyrics to Peter Gabriel's I Grieve to be very profound after my father died:

It was only one hour ago
It was all so different then
Nothing yet has really sunk in
Looks like it always did
This flesh and bone
Is just the way we are tied in
But there's no one home
I grieve, for you
You leave, me
So hard to move on
Still loving what's gone
They say life carries on
Carries on and on and on and on

The news that truly shocks
Is the empty, empty page
While the final rattle rocks
It's empty, empty cage
And I can't handle this
I grieve, for you
You leave, me
Let it out and move on
Missing what's gone
They say life carries on
They say life carries on and on and on

Life carries on in the people I meet
In everyone that's out on the street
In all the dogs and cats
In the flies and rats
In the rot and the rust
In the ashes and the dust
Life carries on and on and on and on
Life carries on and on and on
Life carries on and on and on and on
Life carries on and on and on
Just the car that we ride in
The home we reside in
The face that we hide in
The way we are tied in
As life carries on and on and on and on
Life carries on and on and on

Did I dream this belief
Or did I believe this dream?
Now I will find relief
I grieve

The Honey Trees- By The River

Down by the river, scorned by the winter
I fell to the dust
When all through the meadow, a lullaby echoed
And swept through the earth

I wonder if this sweet sparrow's song
Will carry me to

You oh
No one could know
All that I hold of you

A blanket of black came down
And swallowed the light around
Your hand in mine
And although the night has veiled the sun
I'll never run from you

I wonder if my heart empties
Will you still see it's for

You oh
No one could know
All that I hold of you

And when my heart fell below the sea
The waters rose and you reached for me
There the ground shook 'neath my feet
And oh, I won't let go of

You oh
No one could know
All that I hold of you
Oh, storms come and go
And all that I'll hold is you

You
Oh storms come and go
And all that I'll hold is you

*the whole song is lovely, but the bold part is particularly important to me <3
