Ministry- "Brick Windows"

Been bangin' my head against the window

Just trying to see the world outside

Some people say it doesn't matter

Some people take you for a ride

I am covered in blood and broken glass

It seems the window likes to fight

Some people say the world's on fire

Some people say the world's on ice

Some people say the world's on ice

all alone in a relation

Brick windows

I am sticking my face right through the glass

Just trying to see if the world's alive

Some people will say the window's broken

Some people will say it's all right

Some people will say it's all right

Keep bangin' my head against the wall

Just trying to keep the past alive

Some people who make the windows shatter

Some people who make it airtight

Some people who make it airtight

all alone in a relation

all alone in a relation

Brick windows

Brick windows

Saul Williams- "List Of Demands"

I want my money back. I'm down here drowning in your fat. You got me on my knees praying for everything you lack. I ain't afraid of you. I'm just a victim of your fears. You cower in your tower praying that I'll disappear, I got another plan, one that requires me to stand. On the stage or in the street, don't need no microphone or beat. And when you hear this song, if you ain't dead then sing along. Bang and strum to these here drums til you get where you belong.

I got a list of demands written on the palm of my hands. I ball my fist and you're gonna know where I stand. We're living hand to mouth! You wanna be somebody? See somebody? Try and free somebody? I gotta list of demands written on the palm of my hands. I ball my fist and you're gonna know where I stand. We're living hand to mouth! Hand to mouth!

I wrote a song for you today while I was sitting in my room. I jumped up on my bed today and played it on a broom. I didn't think that it would be a song that you would hear, but when I played it in my head, I made you reappear. I wrote a video for it and I acted out each part. Then I took your picture out and taped it to my heart. I've taped you to my heart dear girl, I've taped you to my heart and if you pull away from me you'll tear my life apart..

I got a list of demands written on the palm of my hands. I ball my fist and you're gonna know where I stand. We're living hand to mouth! You wanna be somebody? See somebody? Try and free somebody? I gotta list of demands written on the palm of my hands. I ball my fist and you're gonna know where I stand. We're living hand to mouth! Hand to mouth!

Ecstacy, suffering, Echinacea, bufferin. We aim to remember what we choose to forget. God's just a baby and her diaper is wet.
Call the police! I'm strapped to the teeth and liable to disregard your every belief. Call on the law! I'm fixin' to draw a line between what is and seems and call up a brawl. Call'em up now! 'cause it's about to go pow! I'm standing on the threshold of the ups and the downs. Call up a truce! 'cause I'm about to bust loose. Protect ya neck,'cause, son, I'm breaking out of my noose.

I got a list of demands written on the palm of my hands. I ball my fist and you're gonna know where I stand. We're living hand to mouth! You wanna be somebody? See somebody? Try and free somebody? I gotta list of demands written on the palm of my hands. I ball my fist and you're gonna know where I stand. We're living hand to mouth! Hand to mouth!

An excerpt of one of the best lines from the song, Wilted Rose, by Steven Page:

The Gathering- Shrink

To feel this great urge
To hold and embrace you
I slowly dry out

I shrink and shrink
Until I'm gone
Nothing to make out of me
Oh what the hell went wrong?

My heart gets pulled out
Into your direction
It's no use
You have forsaken me

"Girl from the north country", by Bob Dylan and Johnny Cash

Well, if you're travelin' in the north country fair,
Where the winds hit heavy on the borderline,
Remember me to one who lives there.
She once was a true love of mine.

Well, if you go when the snowflakes storm,
When the rivers freeze and summer ends,
Please see if she's wearing a coat so warm,
To keep her from the howlin' winds.

Please see for me if her hair hangs long,
If it rolls and flows all down her breast.
Please see for me if her hair hangs long,
That's the way I remember her best.

I'm a-wonderin' if she remembers me at all.
Many times I've often prayed
In the darkness of my night,
In the brightness of my day.

So if you're travelin' in the north country fair,
Where the winds hit heavy on the borderline,
Remember me to one who lives there.
She once was a true love of mine.



"The more you ignore me, the closer I get", by Morrissey

The more you ignore me
The closer I get
You're wasting your time
The more you ignore me
The closer I get
You're wasting your time

I will be
In the bar
With my head
On the bar
I am now
A central part
Of your mind's landscape
Whether you care
Or do not
Yeah, I've made up your mind

The more you ignore me
The closer I get
You're wasting your time
The more you ignore me
The closer I get
You're wasting your time

Beware !
I bear more grudges
Than lonely high court judges
When you sleep
I will creep
Into your thoughts
Like a bad debt
That you can't pay
Take the easy way
And give in
Yeah, and let me in
Oh, let me in
Oh let me ...
Oh, let me in
It´s war
It´s war
It´s war
It´s war
It´s war

war
war
war
war

Oh, let me in
Ah, the closer I get
Ah, you're asking for it
Ah, the closer I get
Ooh, the closer I ...



" 10.000 Miles", by Mary Chapin Carpenter

Fare thee well
My own true love
Farewell for a while
Im going away
But Ill be back
Though I go 10,000 miles

10,000 miles
My own true love
10,000 miles or more
The rocks may melt
And the seas may burn
If I should not return

Oh dont you see
That lonesome dove
Sitting on an ivy tree
Shes weeping for
Her own true love
As I shall weep for mine

Oh come ye back
My own true love
And stay a while with me
If I had a friend
All on this earth
You´ve been a friend to me

Ministry- What About Us?



Just like another speck of dust that's on the highway of life,
He Screams at anyone who'll listen that the end is in sight,
So then he circles the wagons or he just circles then quits
Cause the Highway could become- the final battling pit??
So when the company wants, Another problem resolved,
Or if the company wants a choice of nothing at all,
Point your thumb out to the highway through the heat and the dust,
And raise your finger in the middle till you shout:

"What About Us!"

Just like another last call, it means nothing at all,
You either kiss a lot of ass, or tear the clock off the wall,
Another warning ignored another sign of the times,
They say the sky is gonna fall, so why not drink till your blind
So when the company wants another company-man,
Or when the company wants another 1,000 year plan
You'll let your boot go up the road you cannot possibly trust,
Till the screaming hits the ceiling and you ask:

"What About Us?"

Don't follow my path to extinction, if I had a mind I'd leave it alone,
We speak of alteration,
Like a journey to the inside of carnal-fiction,
Release yourself where the predator prays, rewind your mind, freeze your world apart.

Wage war on the eye which cannot see, destroy the temple of emptiness,
and what about them in the wake of damnation,
and what about us? Do We come from God?"


just like the old soft shoe or the old song and dance
The only check that's in the mail is prob'ly already cashed
Are you a victim of chance? is this the way to succeed?
or just a crack in the wall of what the people believe,
So when the company wants the final weapon online,
When the company wants to repossess your mind,
You gotta wonder if the fear that we loathe or trust
Would ever waste a precious second trying to answer:

What about us

Do We Come from God?
What about them

Pearl Jam-Dissident

She nursed him there, ooh, over a night
I wasn't so sure she wanted him to stay
What to say...what to say
But soon she was down, soon he was low
At a quarter past...a holy no...
She had to turn around

When she couldn't hold, oh...she folded...
A dissident is here
Escape is never, the safest path
Oh, a dissident, a dissident is here

And to this day, shes glided on
Always home but so far away
Like a word misplaced
Nothing said, what a waste
When she had contact...with the conflict...
There was meaning, but she sold him to the state
She had to turn around

When she couldn't hold...she folded...
A dissident is here
Escape is never, the safest path
Oh, a dissident, a dissident is here, oh...oh...oh...

She gave him away when she couldn't hold...no...she folded...
A dissident is here escape is never, the safest path
Oh, a dissident, a dissident is here, oh...
Couldn't hold on...she couldn't hold...no...she folded...
A dissident is here
Escape is never the safest place, oh...
A dissident is here

Song: Them and Us

Let's go!

Despite that he saw blatant similiarity,
He struggled to find a simple moeity,
All he found was vulgar superficiality,
But he focused it to sharpness,
And shared it with the others,
It signified his hatred and his misery

Them and Us!
Lobbying determined through a mire of disbelievers,
Them and Us!
Dire perpetration and incongruous insistence,
That there really is a difference between them and us!

Hate is a simple manifestation,
Of the deep-seated self-directed frustration,
All it does is promote fear and consternation,
It's the inability,
To justify the enemy,
And it fills us all with trepidation!

Them and Us!
Bending the significant to match a whimsied fable,
Them and Us!
Tulmut for the ignorant and purpose for the violent,
A confused loose alliance forming,
Them and us!

I heard him say,
"We can take them all!"
(We can take them all!)
We can take them all!
(That's what he said.)
(We can take them all!)
But he didn't know who we were,
and he didn't know who they were,
and there wasn't any reason or motive
or value to his story,
just allegory, imitation glory,
and a desperate feeble search for a friend!

Go.

Them and us!
Lobbying determined through a mire of disbelievers.
Them and us!
Dire perpetuation and incongruous insistence.
Tumult for the ignorant, a purpose for the violence.
A confused loose alliance forming
them and us!
We can take them all!
We can take them all..

Song: Social Suicide

Right now
Well it's finally time to face my fears
Gonna get the hell out of here
And create a fresher atmosphere
But the consequence is clear

There's a burner set on high
And a yearning undefined
But it's time to turn the tide
It's social suicide

Like you
Perseverance is a useless tool
Just a patron on a ship of fools
Feigning interest in the cast and crew
Why you've broken every single rule

There's a burner set on high
And a yearning undefined
Now it's time to turn the tide
It's social suicide

Shadows entertain the unwashed masses
Scholars explain their known reactions
I don't even know if I can ever find truth
but I'm sure it won't come from following you

There's a burner set on high
And a yearning undefined
But it's time to turn the tide
It's social suicide

Song: The Lie

How do you know what you can be
if you can't see where you are going?
What breaks the silence?
Misery can make you see where you belong
It's a dangerous stage but the show must go on

Why do you lie? Why do you lie?
Would you betray your soul?
Why do you lie? Why do you lie?
Don't let your weakness show
You just might be the last to know

Freedom is such a loaded word,
so full of hurt and such aplomb
Loneliness saunters in its breeze
like a disease it drags along
The time of your life can't be had for a song

Why do you lie? Why do you lie?
Would you betray your soul?
Why do you lie? Why do you lie?
Don't let your weakness show
You just might be the last to know

Oh, Why do you lie? Why do you lie?
Would you betray your soul?
Why do you lie? Why do you lie?
Don't let your weakness show
Why do you lie? Why do you lie?
Only the meek follow
Why do you lie? Why do you lie?
Trample the fear below
You just might be the last to know

Song: Best for You

above us lay the burdens
below us lay the truth
we're somewhere in the middle
and we're all discontent too

is someone watching over you?
inside, they know what's best for you

judgments not tomorrow
it's today (yes, now it's here)
but no it isn't jesus
take a look at all your peers
they're all looking down on you
inside they know what's best for you

everybody knows what's best for you

Edit: I forgot to copy the lyrics.

You gone too far this time
But Im dancing on the valentine
I tell you somebodys fooling around -
With my chances on the dangerline
Ill cross that bridge when I find it
Another day to make my stand, oh..
High time is no time for deciding
If I should find a helping hand, oh..

So why dont you use it
Try not to bruse it
Buy time dont lose it

(chorus)

The reflex is an only child, hes waiting in the park
The reflex is in charge of finding treasure in the dark
And watching over lucky clover isnt that bizarre
Every little thing the reflex does leaves you answered with a
Question mark

Im on a ride and I want to get off
But they wont slow down the roundabout
I sold the renoir and the tv set
Dont want to be around when this gets out

(chorus) (chorus)

The reflex is an only child, hes waiting by the park
The reflex is in charge of finding treasure in the dark
And watching over lucky clover isnt that bizarre
Every little thing the reflex does is an answer with a
Question mark

(chorus) (chorus)

The reflex is an only child, hes waiting by the park
The reflex is in charge of finding treasure in the dark
And watching over lucky clover isnt that bizarre
Every little thing the reflex does leaves me answered with a
Question mark

Oh, the reflex what a game hes hiding all the cards
The reflex is in charge of finding treasure in the dark
And watching over lucky clover isnt that bizarre
Every little thing the reflex does leaves you answered with a
Question mark

Song: Do what you Want

hey, do what you want
but don't do it around me
idleness and dissipation breed apathy
I sit on my ass all goddamn day
a misanthropic anthropoid with nothing to
say what you must, do all you can
break all the ******* rules
and go to hell with superman
and die like a champion ya hey!

hey, I don't know if the billions will survive
but I'll believe in god when one and one are five
my moniker is man and I'm rotten to the core
I'll tear down the building just to pass through the door

So do what you must
Do all you can
break all the ******* rules
and go to hell with superman
and die like a champion ya-hay

Song: When all is said and done


Blindness feeds the world to madness
Faiths crumbling there's no doubt about it
Religion and Science
Fighting, a new kind of war!

Heartless! Wander the streets in desperation
Fearless! To the path they tread
Shameless! The powers that butcher
Ignorant! To the deeds that they commit

When all is said and done
Heaven lies in my heart
Not a slave to beliefs
That propagate pain
Whan all is said and done
Heaven lies in our hearts
This life is a gift
To be lived and loved!

Fracturing the structure of nature
Iconic catalysts to slaughter
A stalemate bursting bound
By contradictions

Heartless! Divine blueprints of hatred
Fearless! Diseased masterplans
Shameless! The powers that butcher
Ignorant! To the deeds that they commit

When all is said and done
Heaven lies in my heart
Not a slave to beliefs
That propagate pain
Whan all is said and done
Heaven lies in our hearts
This life is a gift
To be lived and loved!

Decoded structuring hiding the tyranny
Black bible tyrants behind masks of righteousness
Relentless the onslaught of misunderstanding
Descending into a unified chaos! UNIFIED CHAOS! UNIFIED CHAOS!

One more shot at a chance at redemption! SHOT AT REDEMPTION!
Lost the will, can we summon the might?

When all is said and done
Heaven lies in my heart
Not a slave to beliefs
That propagate pain
Whan all is said and done
Heaven lies in our hearts
This life is a gift
To be lived and loved!

Genre: Melodic Death Metal
Song: LoBodomy

Slashes to slashes, dust to dust
With a knife in my hand, kill you I might
Forget about falling, it's for poor distant punks
I'll see the pain after I see the trunk

So you really thought that I just came
To the gutters forlorn to be tamed

I'm at the end of, my rope your tying
This is just dreaming of might
Hallucination! You're in for SH*T!
I dare you to look at me, I'm a psycho freak!

You mother******* wanna give me? A lobodomy.
**** NO! Then you know who I am, we're about to ****** see
You started messin with death
No one said I'm a maniac
**** YEAH! Then you have no power to ask why, Then I give you a turn

When talking out of your bodom mouth
At night I bark, scream and shout
So you really thought I just came?
To the gutters forlorn to be tamed

You mother******* wanna give me, a lobodomy?
**** no, then you know who I am?
Well we're about to ******* see
You started messin with death
No one said?
I'm a Maniac
**** yeah, you have no power to ask why!
Then I will give you a turn

I'll never give a **** that
These poor bridges are burnt
**** no, **** all that sh*t
Now then, would you all just let me go
