Mistress I stand on the brink of your mind Living inside a nightmare from which I just cannot awaken Stand on the edge of your life Just give me another moment From which I will never awaken
Stand on the brink of my own demise Fallen again for another Mistress of burden To idolize Hoping that one of them will decide To let me in
To stand on the edge of the knife Cutting through the nightmare from which I just cannot awaken Stand on the edge of the night Living inside a moment From which I will never awaken
Stand on the brink of my own demise Fallen again for another Mistress of burden To idolize Hoping that one of them will decide To let me in
Look at what you've done to me You've become my enemy Poisoning the world for me Take away my everything Weakened as I am
Stand on the brink of my own demise Fallen again for another Mistress of burden To idolize Hoping that one of them will decide To let me in

Congratulations, your dismissive and conclusory commentary has provided nothing to this discussion or the wider community on whose behalf you arrogantly presume to speak nor does it engage in any meaningful way the remark it lamely targets. But you did manage to gain experience points toward your next level of internet tough guy.
To their own shore came the world war
Gleaves and the Ingham
leading the Bury west
Took the short way in
the long route back convoy 92
Bury Gleaves and Ingham leading
tankers to the west
and upon the north atlantic
lies the silence of the seas
on a quiet night in the darkest hour
the kriegsmarine appear
Above the surface it seems quiet and calm
Deep down below the wolfpack lurks
To their own shore came the world war
Gleaves and the Ingham
leading the Bury west
in their own track came the wolfpack
Gleaves led the convoy
into the hornets nest
At the crack of dawn the second day
Bury stands in flames
half the convoy sunk or disabled
heading back to shore
but below the North Atlantic
on the bottom of the sea
on the second night in the darkest hour
the kriegsmarine return
The wolfpack surface for a second time
to make the convoy face its fate
To their own shore came the world war
Gleaves and the Ingham
leading the Bury west
in their own track came the wolfpack
Gleaves led the convoy
into the hornets nest
Under fire under water
May '42 when
Bury did fail the test
to their own shore came the world war
Gleaves and the Ingham
leading them into death
569 makes the contact and lead them
U-94 scores a kill in the dark
124 sinking 4 in 2 approaches
406 suffers failure on launch

Ever since seeing Watchmen the other day, I've had 99 Luftballons stuck in my head:
Hast du etwas Zeit fur mich?
Dann singe ich ein Lied fur Dich
Von 99 Luftballons
Auf ihrem Weg zum Horizont
Denkst Du vielleicht grad' an mich
Dann singe ich ein Lied fur Dich
Von 99 Luftballons
Und dass sowas von sowas kommt
etc, etc, etc
This little song by Halcali is cute, although I have little to no idea what they're talking about.
You can run on for a long time
Run on for a long time
Run on for a long time
Sooner or later God'll cut you down
Sooner or later God'll cut you down
Go tell that long tongue liar
Go and tell that midnight rider
Tell the rambler, the gambler, the back biter
Tell 'em that God's gonna cut 'em down
Tell 'em that God's gonna cut 'em down
Well my goodness gracious let me tell you the news
My head's been wet with the midnight dew
I've been down on bended knee talkin' to the man from Galilee
He spoke to me in the voice so sweet
I thought I heard the shuffle of the angel's feet
He called my name and my heart stood still
When he said, "John go do My will!"
Go tell that long tongue liar
Go and tell that midnight rider
Tell the rambler, the gambler, the back biter
Tell 'em that God's gonna cut 'em down
Tell 'em that God's gonna cut 'em down
You can run on for a long time
Run on for a long time
Run on for a long time
Sooner or later God'll cut you down
Sooner or later God'll cut you down
Well you may throw your rock and hide your hand
Workin' in the dark against your fellow man
But as sure as God made black and white
What's down in the dark will be brought to the light
You can run on for a long time
Run on for a long time
Run on for a long time
Sooner or later God'll cut you down
Sooner or later God'll cut you down
Go tell that long tongue liar
Go and tell that midnight rider
Tell the rambler, the gambler, the back biter
Tell 'em that God's gonna cut you down
Tell 'em that God's gonna cut you down
Tell 'em that God's gonna cut you down
Imogen Heap's Hide and Seek is another great song with fantastic lyrics:
where are we?
what the hell is going on?
the dust has only just begun to form
crop circles in the carpet
sinking feeling
spin me round again
and rub my eyes,
this can't be happening
when busy streets a mess with people
would stop to hold their heads heavy
hide and seek
trains and sewing machines
all those years
they were here first
oily marks appear on walls
where pleasure moments hung before the takeover,
the sweeping insensitivity of this still life
hide and seek
trains and sewing machines (oh, you won't catch me around here)
blood and tears (hearts)
they were here first
Mmmm whatcha say,
Mmm that you only meant well?
well of course you did
Mmmm whatcha say,
Mmmm that it's all for the best?
of course it is
Mmmm whatcha say?
Mmmm that it's just what we need
you decided this
whatcha say?
Mmmm what did she say?
ransom notes keep falling out your mouth
mid-sweet talk, newspaper word cut outs
speak no feeling no I don't believe you
you don't care a bit,
you don't care a bit
(hide and seek)
ransom notes keep falling out your mouth
mid-sweet talk, newspaper word cut outs
(hide and seek)
speak no feeling no i don't believe you
you don't care a bit,
you don't care a (you don't care a) bit
(hide and seek)
oh no, you don't care a bit
oh no, you don't care a bit
(hide and seek)
oh no, you don't care a bit
you don't care a bit
you don't care a bit
Finally, because this could go on and on and on, I'll leave you with Anyway You Choose To Give It by the Black Ghosts.
I hope you know what your doing to me here
What your doing to me me here
Take some responsibility for your awareness of the levels on which we lie
I'd hate to believe only to find that I'm wrong
I'm wrong, I'm wrong, I'm wrong, I'm wrong
I'm wrong, I'm wrong, I'm wrong, I'm wrong
Don't act that way it's unbecoming just do what you do
Do what you do, do what you do, do what you do, do what you do
I only know that your the one that always makes me feel it
It's nothing that you do lets just say it's just the way you are
If I could bottle what you got then life would be too perfect
I'll take it as it comes, any way you choose to give it
I challenge you to make a wrong move
A wrong move, a wrong move
Even when your acting the fool I cannot see through you
Through you, through you
The culmination of experience that I can only ever dream of
Is tearing your clothes off
How many lifetimes does it take to live in the present day
Live in the present day, live in the present day
I only know that your the one that always makes me feel it
It's nothing that you do lets just say it's just the way you are
If I could bottle what you got then life would be too perfect
I'll take it as it comes, any way you choose to give it
I only know that your the one that always makes me feel it
It's nothing that you do lets just say it's just the way you are
If I could bottle what you got then life would be too perfect
I'll take it as it comes, any way you choose to give it
Any way you choose to give it is sincerely a pleasure of mine
Mine, mine, mine, mine, mine, mine
But don't think you can imitate the accent of fate
You've got to walk the line, walk the line
And I can think of a few things to say to make things right
But by the time I say them we will be in different light
Please appreciate the limits of the flesh
The spirit will not rest, will not be satisfied with anybody else
I only know that your the one that always makes me feel it
It's nothing that you do lets just say it's just the way you are
If I could bottle what you got then life would be too perfect
I'll take it as it comes, any way you choose to give it
I only know that your the one that always makes me feel it
It's nothing that you do Lets just say it's just the way you are
If I could bottle what you got then life would be too perfect
I'll take it as it comes, any way you choose to give it

I was her she was me
We were one we were free
And if there's somebody calling me on
She's the one
If there's somebody calling me on
She's the one
We were young we were wrong
We were fine all along
If there's somebody calling me on
She's the one
When you get to where you wanna go
And you know the things you wanna know
You're smiling
When you said what you wanna say
And you know the way you wanna play, yeah
You'll be so high you'll be flying
Though the sea will be strong
I know we'll carry on
'Cos if there's somebody calling me on
She's the one
If there's somebody calling me on
She's the one
When you get to where you wanna go
And you know the things you wanna know
You're smiling
When you said what you wanna say
And you know the way you wanna say it
You'll be so high you'll be flying
I was her she was me
We were one we were free

She's the one
If there's somebody calling me on
She's the one
If there's somebody calling me on
She's the one
Yeah she's the one
If there's somebody calling me on
She's the one
She's the one
If there's somebody calling me on
She's the one
She's the one
If there's somebody calling me on
She's the one
She's the one..

Not my favorite song, but a good 80's inspiration hit.
Asia - "Only Time will Tell wrote:
You're leaving now
It's in your eyes
There's no disguising it
It really comes as no surprise
To find that you planned it all along
I see it now
Becomes so clear
Your insincerity
And me all starry-eyed
You'd think that I would have known by now
Now, sure as the sun will cross the sky
The lie is over
Lost, like the tears that used to tide me over
CHORUS:
Only time will tell
One thing is sure
That time will tell
Only time will tell
If you were wrong
The brightest ring around the moon
Will darken when I die
Now sure as the sun will cross the sky
The lying's over
Gone, like the tears that used to tide me over
You're leaving now
It's in your eyes
There's no disguising it
It really comes as no surprise
To find that you planned it all along
Only time will tell
I see it now, become so clear
Only time will tell
Your insincerity
And me all starry-eyed
You'd think that I would have known by now
Now, sure as the sun will cross the sky
The lie is over
Lost, like the tears that used to tide me over
Only time will tell
You're on your own inside your room
Only time will tell
You're claiming victory
You were just using me
And there is no one you can use now
Only time will tell
One thing is sure...
One of my favorit songs from one of my favorite band's CAKE:

Cool blue reason empties on the page
Your colleagues are in prison and your enemies enraged
Cool blue reason comes into your world
There's two more dead in Texas and it's probably your girls
Cool blue reason wraps around your throat
The minutes change like seasons
Only 8 more hours to go (2x)
Only 8 more hours...left to go.
Cool blue reason comes into your life
There's one more dead in Kansas and it's probably your wife
Cool blue reason I'm just talking to myself
Cool blue reason I'm just rearranging hell
I'm just talking to myself(2x)
Cool blue reason wraps around your throat
The minutes change likes seasons
Only 8 more hours to go (2x)

The music is fantastic and it is just hypnotizing.

People are like dice, a certain Frenchman said that. You throw yourself in the direction of your own choosing. People are free because they can do that. Everyone's circumstances are different, but no matter how small the choice, at the very least, you can throw yourself. It's not chance or fate. It's the choice you made.
Head under water And you tell me to breathe easy for a while The breathing gets harder, even I know that Made room for me but it's too soon to see If I'm happy in your hands
I'm unusually hard to hold on to Blank stares at blank pages No easy way to say this You mean well, but you make this hard on me I'm not gonna Raichu a love song 'cause you asked for it 'cause you need one, you see
I'm not gonna Raichu a love song 'cause you tell me it's Make or break in this If you're on your way I'm not gonna Raichu to stay If all you have is leaving I'm gonna need a better Reason to Raichu a love song today
I learned the hard way That they all say things you want to hear And my heavy heart sinks deep down under you and Your twisted words, Your help just hurts You are not what I thought you were Hello to high and dry Convinced me to please you Made me think that I need this too I'm trying to let you hear me as I am

Promise me that you'll leave the light on To help me see with daylight, my guide, gone 'cause I believe there's a way you can love me Because I say I won't Raichu a love song 'cause you asked for it 'cause you need one, you see
I'm not gonna Raichu a love song 'cause you tell me it's make or break in this Is that why you wanted a love song 'cause you asked for it 'cause you need one, you see I'm not gonna Raichu a love song 'cause you tell me it's make or break in this If you're on your way I'm not gonna Raichu to stay If your heart is nowhere in it I don't want it for a minute Babe, I'll walk the seven seas when I believe that There's a reason to Raichu a love song today

Anuvver fing - when they do sumfing, they try to make it look like somfink else to confuse everybody. When one of them wants to lord it over the uvvers, 'e says "I'm very speshul so'z you gotta worship me", or "I know summink wot you lot don't know, so yer better lissen good". Da funny fing is, arf of 'em believe it and da over arf don't, so 'e 'as to hit 'em all anyway or run fer it.

The idea is that it takes extra effort and time to write properly, and they’d rather save the time. If you can still be understood, what’s the harm? While most of the time a sloppy post CAN be understood, the use of proper grammar, punctuation, and spelling is generally seen as respectable and desirable on most forums. It demonstrates an effort made to be understood, and to make your post an easy and pleasant read. By making this effort, you can often elicit more positive responses from the community, and instantly mark yourself as someone worth talking to.
