What Song Are You Listening To, Right Now?

Taking the night off from extracting businesses of Canada contact information (surpassing 2700 contacts), taking apo-naproxen to reduce swelling of an abscessed tooth (really fattened my face quite suddenly and killed my attention span and patience) so I might as well post a few tunes ...


Down in a Hole

Alice In Chains

Bury me softly in this womb
I give this part of me for you
Sand rains down and here I sit
Holding rare flowers
In a tomb, in bloom
Down in a hole and I don't know if I can be saved
See my heart I decorate it like a grave
You don't understand who they thought
I was supposed to be
Look at me now a man
Who won't let himself be
Down in a hole, feelin' so small
Down in a hole, losin' my soul
I'd like to fly, but my wings have been so denied
Down in a hole and they've put all the stones in their place
I've eaten the sun so my tongue
Has been burned of the taste
I have been guilty of kicking myself in the teeth
I will speak no more of my feelings beneath
Down in a hole, feelin' so small
Down in a hole, losin' my soul
I'd like to fly but my wings have been so denied
Bury me softly in this womb
Oh I want to be inside of you
I give this part of me for you
Oh I want to be inside of you
Sand rains down and here I sit
Holding rare flowers in a tomb (oh I want to be inside of you)
Oh I want to be inside
Down in a hole, feelin' so small
Down in a hole, losin' my soul
Down in a hole, feelin' so small
Down in a hole, outta control
I'd like to fly but my wings have been so denied
 
Farewell to the late Stevie Nicks who passed fairly recently


Leather and Lace

Don Henley, Stevie Nicks

Is love so fragile
And the heart so hollow?
Shatter with words
Impossible to follow
Sayin' I'm fragile
Try not to be
I search only . . . somethin' I can't see
I have my own life
And I am stronger than you know
But I carry this feelin'
When you walked into my house
That you won't be walkin' out the door
Still I carry this feelin'
When you walked into my house
That you won't be walkin' out the door
Lovers forever, face-to-face
My city, your mountains
Stay with me, stay
I need you to love me
I need you today
Give to me your leather
Take from me my lace
You in the moonlight
With your sleepy eyes
Could you ever love a man like me?
And you were right
When I walked into your house
I knew I'd never wanna leave
Sometimes I'm a strong man
Sometimes, cold and scared
And sometimes I cry
But that time I saw you
Knew with you to light my night
Somehow I'd get by
Lovers forever, face-to-face
My city, your mountain
Stay with me, stay
I need you to love me
I need you today
Give to me your leather
Take from me my lace
Lovers forever, face-to-face
My city, your mountain
Stay with me, stay
I need you to love me
I need you today
Give to me your leather
Take from me my lace
O take from me
My lace
Take from me
My lace
 

Tom Sawyer

Rush

A modern day warrior
Mean, mean stride
Today's Tom Sawyer
Mean, mean pride
Though his mind is not for rent
Don't put him down as arrogant
His reserve, a quiet defense
Riding out the day's events
The river
And what you say about his company
Is what you say about society
Catch the mist, catch the myth
Catch the mystery, catch the drift
The world is, the world is
Love and life are deep
Maybe as his skies are wide
Today's Tom Sawyer
He gets high on you
And the space he invades
He gets by on you
No, his mind is not for rent
To any god or government
Always hopeful, yet discontent
He knows changes aren't permanent
But change is
And what you say about his company
Is what you say about society
Catch the witness, catch the wit
Catch the spirit, catch the spit
The world is, the world is
Love and life are deep
Maybe as his eyes are wide
Exit the warrior
Today's Tom Sawyer
He gets high on you
And the energy you trade
He gets right on to the friction of the day
