AT THE STARS
better than ezra


maybe i should drop you at your door
or leave tonight and vanish up the shore
anywhere but here
it's three o clock we're driving in your car
you're screaming out the window at the stars
"please don't drive me home"

blame us cause we are who we are
hate us cause you'll never get that far
and who'd suppose you would go
i've already learned enough to know

tell me all the places we could go
and count the headlights passing on the road
a long long time ago

blame us cause we are who we are
hate us cause you'll never get that far
and who'd suppose you would go
i've already learned enough to know

here we are
foreign to their world
straight and composed
your sermons I can do without
and i finally found that everybody loves to love you
when you're far away

could it be we've done something wrong
we'd make it home to your place before dawn
"please don't drive me home"
"please don't take me home"

blame us cause we are who we are
hate us cause you'll never get that far
and who'd suppose you would go
i've already learned enough to know

JUDE LAW AND A SEMESTER ABROAD
brand new


whatever poison's in this bottle
will leave me broken, sore and stiff
but it's the genie at the bottom
who i'm sucking at, he owes me one last wish
so here's a present to let you know i still exist
i hope the next boy that you kiss
has something terribly contagious on his lips

but i got a plan (I got a plan)
to drink for forty days and forty nights
a sip for every second-hand tick
and everytime you fed the line,
"you mean so much to me."
i'm without you

tell all the english boys you meet
about the american boy back in the states
the american boy you used to date
who would do anything you say
tell all the english boys you meet
about the american boy back in the states
the american boy you used to date
who would do anything you say

and even if her plane crashes tonight
she'll find some way to disappoint me
by not burning in the wreckage
or drowning at the bottom of the sea
jess, i still taste you
and thus, reserve my right to hate you
and all this empty space that you create
does nothing for my flawless sense of style
it's 8:45 (it's 8:45), the weather is getting better by the hour
(rains all the time) i hope it rains there all the time
and if you ever said you miss me
then don't say you never lied
i'm without you

tell all the english boys you meet
about the american boy back in the states
the american boy you used to date
who would do anything you say
tell all the english boys you meet
about the american boy back in the states
the american boy you used to date
who would do anything you say
who would do anything you say

never gonna get it right
you're never gonna get it
you're never gonna get it
you're never gonna get it
you're never gonna get it
you're never gonna get it
you're never gonna get it
you're never gonna get it
you're never gonna get it
you're never gonna get it
you're never gonna get it
you're never gonna get it
you're never gonna get it
you're never gonna get it
you're never gonna get it
you're never gonna get it

okay, no more sad songs about you
after this one, i am done
you're gone

tell all the english boys you meet
bout the american boy back in the states
the american boy you used to date
who would do anything you say
tell all the english boys you meet
about the american boy back in the states
the american boy you used to date
who would do anything you say

LOVER'S SPIT
broken social scene


all these people drinking lover's spit
they sit around and clean their face with it
and they listen to teeth to learn how to quit
tied to a night they never met

you know it's time that we grow old and do some shit
i like it all that way
i like it all that way

all these people drinking lover's spit
swallowing words while giving head
they listen to teeth to learn how to quit
take some hands and get used to it

all these people drinking lover's spit
they sit around and clean their face with it
you know it's time that we grow old and do some shit
i like it all that way
i like it all that way
i like it all that way

THE CIGARETTE SONG
the all-american rejects


bring back the memories
this one's giving up on you
i don?t miss giving up on you
and there's no more time
forgive me one more time

cause i don't want you away
just bury me i am away
whispered warning away
just bury me i am away

and not a day has passed
that i?m regretting
the window?s closed
and she's not letting me in

one place, one place slipped away and
missed call, missed calls
i can't stay too late
she?s gone
i will miss her voice, her eyes
and love's first kiss

i can't remind you all the time
bring it back, bring it back
to where we were before
i can't remind you all the time
no, no
bring it back, bring it back

one place, one place slipped away
missed call, missed calls
i can't stay too late
she?s gone
i will miss her voice, her eyes
and love's first kiss

the day is gone
the sky is blue
i know you're all alone
and the sky is blue
come back to me
the sky is blue
the sky is blue

ADAM'S RIB

In my brain's eye, I see a man.
He has rosy eyes and a mouth
With the red paper curves of a candy heart.
He carries flowers pulled up by the roots
In his one hand and a box of cobwebs in his other.
His body opens like a dirty closet
Gladly revealing the skeleton inside.
I see through to his heart,
A simple, tangled room of so-called feelings
Which pumps me like thick red mud
And I notice, suddenly he is missing not one rib
But two, three, four.
I cannot count how many girls, like me,
He has tamed and broken into women.
This is not what I want.
I close him up, smile, and
Walk away shaking my head.
I don't want your cobwebs.
I don't want your candied nothings.
I am not just a body part
And your rosy snake-eyes
Can't make me want to be one.

TELESCOPE EYES
moss eisley


oh, you humor me today
calling me out to play
with your telescope eyes, metal teeth
i can't be seen with you, you freak

go cry, go run away
let your short legs carry you away
with your big dress and your dirty hair
your pen's waiting for you
just get far, far away from me
i don't want your disease

please don't make me cry
please don't make me cry
i'm just like you, i know you know
i'm just like you, so leave me alone

dear matthew, why can't you see
you're just not near enough like me
with your telescope eyes, metal teeth
i can't be seen with you, you freak

please don't make me cry
please don't make me cry
i'm just like you, i know you know
i'm just like you, so leave me alone

SNOWBIRDS AND TOWNIES
further seems forever


fountains and flourescent lights
when season has come
the snowbirds have crowded the nights
and old townies are tired
of the beaches and bars
being packed so tight
and bridges, and traffic, and inlets
are locked in their fight

and on these boats
ride the hopes of working class boys
dreaming of girls from far away points
and better things like winter flings
and longing after spring has sprung
and they fly north when winter's done
and we get burned in summer's sun

fountains and fluorescent lights
when season has come
the snowbirds have crowded the nights
and young townies and tourists
find unlikely love at first sight
and swear that they're never leaving
and that is their plight

and on these boats
ride the hopes of working class boys
dreaming of girls from far away points
and better things like winter flings
and longing after spring has sprung
and they fly north when winter's done
and we get burned in summer's sun

this winter is lasting forever
at least for tonight
and i know that you're never leaving
until your flight
takes you off
and out of my arms
and into the air
so far from your charms
that i can not bear
another year
in this long forgotten beach town
we once shared

this winter is lasting forever
at least for tonight
and i know that you're never
leaving me again
no, not again

Well, this is my first entry. This journal is specifically for excerpts and artworks. I got tired of my other journal's entries being too long because I was adding this stuff to it. So I thought this might keep you all from saying, "Dang, another one?" everytime you read my day's dealings. Also, look for me to repeat myself from time to time. Not often, but sometimes. Anyway, here goes.

HEY JUPITER
tori amos


no one's picking up the phone
guess it's me and me
and this little masochist
she's ready to confess
all the things that i never thought
that she could feel and

hey, jupiter
nothing's been the same
so are you gay
are you blue
thought we both could use a friend
to run to
and i thought you'd see with me
you wouldn't have to be
with me something new

sometimes i breathe you in
and i know you know
and sometimes you take a swim
found your writing on my wall
if my heart's soaking wet
boy, your boots can leave a mess

hey, jupiter
nothing's been the same
so are you gay
are you blue
thought we both could use a friend
to run to
and i thought i wouldn't have to keep
with you hiding

thought Ii knew myself so well
all the dolls i had
took my leather off the shelf
your apocalypse was fab
for a girl who couldn't choose between
the shower or the bath

and i thought i wouldn't have to be
with you a magazine

no one's picking up the phone
guess it's clear he's gone
and this little masochist
is lifting up her dress
guess i thought i could never feel
the things i feel

hey, jupiter
