They're from a bible verse (I forget the exact book and verse).  yippeskippy: Joe South Games People Play Oh the games people play now Every night and every day now Never meaning what they say now Never saying what they mean And they wile away the hours In their ivory towers Till they're covered up with flowers In the back of a black limousine whoa Oh we make one another cry Break a heart then we say goodbye Cross our hearts and we hope to die That the other was to blame whoa Neither one will give in So we gaze at our eight by ten Thinking 'bout the things that might have been And it's a dirty rotten shame whoa They're gonna teach you how to meditate Read your horoscope, cheat your fate And further more to hell with hate Come on and get on board whoah Now wait a minute Look around tell me what you see What's happening to you and me God grant me the serenity To just remember who I am whoah 'Cause you've given up your sanity For your pride and your vanity Turn your back on humanity Bill51: I heard that Joe South song before, but somehow I never payed much attention to the lyrics. I just gave it another listen on youtube and I have to agree; they're pretty damn good.  coolbear1: Hi , anyone know the title of a song I love?

And on cold leather seats, well it suddenly struck me, I just might die with a smile on my face after all. That joke isn't funny anymore - The Smiths  LoisS: Give me the beat and a mic, give me the freedom to write Give me the vision to see my demons and beat 'em at night Give me the pen and the pad, give me a couple of stans Gave you a percentage but I'm taking home all of the bag Give me definitive and unlimited amounts of people loving me And call upon everybody who came before and tell them to come And inject me with whatever they're smoking man, I'm sick! But I think you know that already You call me evil but how would you know it Unless you live it already? You think you're better right? Because nobodies seen what you've done in the dark But if I put your life in this light You would crumble and fight to survive or die But bitch I fucking knew that already I ain't special But I specialize in making you feel especially stupid For judging a human, while you sit at home And the whole world judge can't watch what you doing Or follow and hate all your movements I ain't complaining but I know the people who do it Are sicker than me, and I'm sick enough I just might lose it Yeah, you think you know me 'cause you double tap on a picture I hate the fact that you judge me, it's driving me crazy So when it's too deep I say, "Fuck it" and drown in some liquor I write these verses in blood, I got chapters For days 'cause my heart is my biblical scripture And I ain't a prophet but I can predict That you'll never catch happiness till you're the pitcher So please continue to laugh If I'm a clown, you a circus act Maybe it was me Maybe you like all my music but don't really actually love me Maybe you just want a picture Maybe you just want to see me 'cause you need some money Maybe you think that I'm happy Maybe you think in reality liking my post is repairing a hole When it's actually shaking and cutting the soul right out of me I think I'm sick I feel a rush of emotion whenever I post up a pic I got a problem I'm in the studio rapping while this girl is sucking my dick She cut a hole in my heart now I fill it with women Who love me 'cause they think I'm rich And if I be honest I just told a bitch that I care But I really do not give a shit So what's your excuse, what helps you sleep? You leave a negative comment Not knowing that what you sow, you will reap I bet you smile when you post, thinking you're hurting me But you see the way the brain works You become what you speak I need peace, but y'all can't offer that I held my ground, I didn't sell my soul I said fuck the fame, y'all can't take that offer back Fuck a shelf, you can't take me off the rack All the fame is not worth a heart attack You're insane, you're in pain, I can tell by what you're saying But my bad, I forgot you were fragile I forgot someone who doesn't even know me told you I'm an asshole I forgot that I'm a villain I forgot that I've always spread positivity, but you think I didn't I forgot that hatred stems from people who hate their own existence I forgot I'm better off alone I forgot I care for everyone's happiness, but forget about my own I forget I spend every waking second on my phone- Come join my circus, I'm recruiting I'm taking everyone who passes judgement Bitch, that's including everyone who thinks it's so amusing To put me down while I'm pursuing The keyboard warriors that live online Behind a screen that's just an illusion Come, come, come, come join my circus You fucking pricks I'll fuck you till you love me, then pay you to do some tricks I don't need a doctor, I need a bag of nails and bricks To lay down on the floor So if you fail to land a flip you can feel what I felt When you tried to come sink my ship Let me explain, you all help me financially gain But I spend my money on mental health books And read them just to control all my pain I don't wear clothes, but bought this chain And just like you this chain is fake I wear it to distract you from the blatant sadness Written on my fucking face What'd you expect? Did you think I was immune to what you were saying And didn't see all of the disrespect? Do you think I'm not human, have no feelings? Or maybe you think I'm fucking weak and now I'm pleading Maybe you think I'm just too good And that I'm fucking cheating? Or maybe, just maybe You're blind and the hate inside your heart Clouds your eyes and your mind and your ears when I rhyme Even though we all know I'm one of the best of all time Or maybe you're just a fucking bitch and I can't- Stop comparing me to people who are not in my league Stop saying I don't believe in God just because you can't read Stop making fake profiles so you can spam my feed I'm not alone, I know there's millions out there just like me LoisS: So this is it I say goodbye To this chapter of my ever-changing life And there's mistakes The path is long And I'm sure I'll answer for them when I'm gone So when the day comes and The sun won't touch my face Tell the ones who cared enough That I finally left this place That's been so cold Look at my face All the stories it will tell I can't erase The road is long Just one more song A little something to remind you when I'm gone When I'm gone The road to hell Along the way Is paved with good intentions so they say And some believe That no good deed Goes unpunished in the end or so it seems So when the day comes and The sun won't touch my face Tell the ones who care enough That I finally left this place That's been so cold Look at my face All the stories it will tell I can't erase The road is long Just one more song A little something to remind you when I'm gone When I'm gone So this is it I say goodbye To this chapter of my ever-changing life And there's mistakes The path was long And I'm sure I'll answer for them when I'm gone When I'm gone LoisS: I got wasted 'cause I didn't wanna deal with myself tonight My thoughts get drowned until I feel alright I keep drinkin' 'til I'm someone I don't recognize I got wasted I got wasted 'cause I didn't wanna deal with myself tonight My thoughts get drowned until I feel alright I keep drinkin' 'til I'm someone I don't recognize I got wasted My life been gettin' sorta crazy, and I don't wanna think I look myself right in the mirror, and I don't even blink Then I get angry, take the rest, and pour it right in the sink I know where this road goes Alcohol ain't my friend, but I keep drinkin' 'cause these demons roam And follow me 'round everywhere I go It clouds my mind and soul, it turns my heart cold But I keep drinkin' 'cause it makes me feel like I'm not alone I'm havin' problems, my pride won't let me reach out Lookin' at this bottle, havin' nothin' but doubt Don't wanna drink, but it keeps comin' around and around and around I got wasted 'cause I didn't wanna deal with myself tonight My thoughts get drowned until I feel alright I keep drinkin' 'til I'm someone I don't recognize I got wasted I got wasted 'cause I didn't wanna deal with myself tonight My thoughts get drowned until I feel alright I keep drinkin' 'til I'm someone I don't recognize I got wasted I know I need to quit (I need to quit) I gotta do better (I gotta do better) Example to these kids ('xample to these kids) 'Cause they watchin' when I'm there, but I'm scared 'Cause I've been chasin' the man that I am when I start to drink He's cocky confident, and he don't give a damn what you think This world is beatin' me down, and it's pushed me right to brink I take a shot every time because, man, it helps me escape I'm takin' care of these people, but no one takes care of me I want to talk to somebody, but I feel no one relates I need better now, I think I've lost my way I'm havin' battles with faith, it's painted right on my face I hope better times are comin', no chase, but I'm still runnin' I gotta take control, and I won't stop for nothin' Dear, God, this is my test, promise that I'll do my best Just help with this pain I feel, and pressure that is on my chest I got wasted 'cause I didn't wanna deal with myself tonight My thoughts get drowned until I feel alright I keep drinkin' 'til I'm someone I don't recognize I got wasted I got wasted 'cause I didn't wanna deal with myself tonight My thoughts get drowned until I feel alright I keep drinkin' 'til I'm someone I don't recognize I got wasted   Irishholly: Words are flowing out like endless rain into a paper cup They slither while they pass, they slip away across the universe Pools of sorrow waves of joy are drifting through my opened mind Possessing and caressing me Images of broken light which dance before me like a million eyes They call me on and on across the universe Thoughts meander like a restless wind Inside a letter box they Tumble blindly as they make their way Across the universe Sounds of laughter shades of life are ringing Through my open ears inciting and inviting me Limitless undying love which shines around me like a million suns And calls me on and on across the universe  freudianslip69: I wish I was a neutron bomb for once I could go off I wish I was a sacrifice but somehow still lived on I wish I was a sentimental ornament you hung on The Christmas tree I wish I was the star that went on top I wish I was the evidence I wish I was the grounds For fifty million hands upraised and open toward the sky I wish I was a sailor with someone who waited for me I wish I was as fortunate as fortunate as me I wish I was a messenger and all the news was good I wish I was the full moon shining off a Camaro's hood I wish I was an alien at home behind the sun I wish I was the souvenir you kept your house key on I wish I was the pedal brake that you depended on I wish I was the verb 'to trust' and never let you down I wish I was a radio song, the one that you turned up LoisS: I close my eyes Only for a moment, and the moment's gone All my dreams Pass before my eyes, a curiosity Dust in the wind All they are is dust in the wind Same old song Just a drop of water in an endless sea All we do Crumbles to the ground, though we refuse to see Dust in the wind All we are is dust in the wind Now don't hang on Nothing lasts forever but the earth and sky It slips away And all your money won't another minute buy Dust in the wind All we are is dust in the wind (All we are is dust in the wind) Dust in the wind (Everything is dust in the wind) Everything is dust in the wind In the wind...... LoisS: … I fell by the wayside, like everyone else I hate you, I hate you, I hate you But I was just kidding myself Our every moment, I start to replace 'Cause now that they're gone All I hear are the words that I needed to say … When you hurt under the surface Like troubled water running cold Well, time can heal, but this won't … So, before you go Was there something I could've said To make your heart beat better? If only I'd have known you had a storm to weather So, before you go Was there something I could've said To make it all stop hurting? It kills me how your mind can make you feel so worthless So, before you go … Was never the right time, whenever you called Went little, by little, by little until there was nothing at all Our every moment, I start to replay But all I can think about is seeing that look on your face … When you hurt under the surface Like troubled water running cold Well, time can heal, but this won't … So, before you go Was there something I could've said To make your heart beat better? If only I'd have known you had a storm to weather So, before you go Was there something I could've said To make it all stop hurting? It kills me how your mind can make you feel so worthless So, before you go … Would we be better off by now If I'd let my walls come down? Maybe, I guess we'll never know You know, you know … Before you go Was there something I could've said To make your heart beat better? If only I'd have known you had a storm to weather So, before you go Was there something I could've said To make it all stop hurting? It kills me how your mind can make you feel so worthless So, before you go...
