HELLO OPERATOR LYRICS - Take Me Away

HELLO OPERATOR LYRICS

"Take Me Away"

Turning in the night is cold again

Broken down, alone and now so many things are left unsaid

Misery has always been so strange

Wanna remember when it wasn't easy to explain



CAN YOU... CAN YOU TAKE ME AWAY

OH YOU... 'CAUSE LATELY I DON'T WANNA STAY

SO TELL ME YOU... CAN YOU TAKE ME TO THE PLACE I KNOW



Midnight hour's coming to an end

Recognize the reasons why so many things were left unsaid

Look into the calm before the rain

'Cause yeah on better days somehow I know that I can change



CAN YOU... CAN YOU TAKE ME AWAY

OH YOU... 'CAUSE LATELY I DON'T WANNA STAY

CAN YOU... CAN YOU TAKE ME AWAY

OH YOU... CAN YOU TAKE ME TO THE PLACE I KNOW



So pick me up and pull me out

'Cause I know life can change but I can't do without

So take control - no you can't let me go



CAN YOU... CAN YOU TAKE ME AWAY

OH YOU... 'CAUSE LATELY I DON'T WANNA STAY

AND YOU - I TELL YOU ALL THE THINGS THAT I CAN DO

BUT YOU LOOK AWAY

THE DAMNED LYRICS - Would You Be So Hot (If You Weren't Dead)?

THE DAMNED LYRICS

"Would You Be So Hot (If You Weren't Dead)?"

Suddenly, you are twice the man you used to be

Excessive fame in quick death

Would it be different

If he had gone instead

Would you be so hot if you wern't dead?



Famously, you spoke of love philosophy

You're a hypocrite, your

Cruel lack of empathy is long forgot

Would you be so hot if you wern't dead?



Tragically,

There's others better than you, don't you see

Damn the groveling writers

Who disregard your flaws

I have to ask

Would you be hot if you wern't dead?

MUSTARD PLUG LYRICS - Alone

MUSTARD PLUG LYRICS

"Alone"

I saw you today. Had nothing to say.

I just walked on by right on my way.

You flashed me a smile, I threw it right back.

It wasn't my miss I know for a fact.



Why won't you why won't you leave me alone!?

Why won't you why won't you leave me alone?!

Why won't you why won't you leave me alone?!

I want to get out on my own!

I went to the store to get me some eats,

I grabbed a box of shredded wheats.

And through the shelf, I saw your face.

Why must you follow me every place?



I decided to move, had to get away.

To a distant island in Honnelei

My friends through me a party, to get me boned,

you were there won't you leave me alone!?

VICE SQUAD LYRICS - You Can't Do That

VICE SQUAD LYRICS

"You Can't Do That"

Everybody's telling me

You can't do that you can't

Face up to reality

You can't do that you can't

Everybody's down on me

Spreading round the misery

You can't do that you can't do that



I get so breathless running circles in my brain

I get back up so you can knock me down again

I live to serve and carry round this ball and chain

But I ain't gonna give it up



I've got a heart like lead, a millstone round my neck

Up the hill backwards I can never get ahead

I can't work fast enough to get my daily bread

But I ain't never giving up



Why ask for permission?

The answer is "no"

The more that they crush us

The more we will grow

PICTURES IN PIECES LYRICS - Choices

PICTURES IN PIECES LYRICS

"Choices"

Do I make you feel like this lingers on.

We'll see so clear when the mist is gone

Cause you're losing my attention

Building mindless tension.

Do you want to waste us away?



You've got choices to make

In a little while

So many chances to take

So don't just sit around

If you're stuck reaching down

And your fingers touch the ground

Just look up to release

This steady circumstance getting you down



Sedation leaves you so undefined

The irritation seems to lead you, oh

Cause you're losing my attention

Building mindless tension.

Do you want to waste us away?



You've got choices to make

In a little while

So many chances to take

So don't just sit around

If you're stuck reaching down

And your fingers touch the ground

Just look up to release what isolates you now



And when the truth sets in don't make a sound

And when the lies catch wind just phase them out

We'll waste away what we can take from this

Away if we continue this

Today we can't erase conflicting ties now



Just look around if you can't let go now



You've got choices to make

In a little while

So many chances to take

So don't just sit around

If you're stuck reaching down

And your fingers touch the ground

Just look up to release

This steady circumstance leaving you holding out

We're holding out

Holding out

THE FAD LYRICS - Oil Spills

THE FAD LYRICS

"Oil Spills"

If we don't fill up the car, we won't go very far

When they get sick of the shocks,

where do the kids go?

To college, work, or the military

I hear the mid-eat is real nice in February

Round up all the confused girls & boys

Make em' choose before they find their own voice

What else you gonna do but let your country make use of you?

Oil spills (Why can't you see?)

It also kills (Kills you & me!)

Corrupts the world (Corrupts the world!)

Provokes the war

Fuck the rent, upon our dreams it will be spent

we've got one shot, we don't intend to lose

Apparently we're businessmen

Forced to go against good friends

Advertise! Market wise!

HEIDEROOSJES LYRICS - Regular Day In Bosnia

HEIDEROOSJES LYRICS

"Regular Day In Bosnia"

I've tried to find the words to tell

But how can words reflect their hell?

I'm struck by hollow empty eyes

Faith is gone, trust replaced by lies

What's a home if it isn't yours?

Is it human if if you can't show remorse?

Respect is a laugh when guns blast

They just live today, it might be their last



It's a regular day in Bosnia

It's a regular kid in Bosnia

Something's still burning in Bosnia

I will never forget about Bosnia



I'm walking through this ghost-town

Definite silence all sounds will drown

Burned down houses withness paranoia

Ethnic cleansing, name of the destroyer

A family portrait, it's lying in rubbish

I think I know but still I pray, I hope, I wish

Hunted, killed for what cause?

Another führer's megalomania of course!



He tells me about the mine-fields he has crossed

He tells me about the friends he had lost

He tells me about his sister being blown to bits

He tells me about mines cleared away by kids

He tells me Serbs and Moslims used to walk hand in hand

He tells me things I will never understand



It's the same in Croatia

It's the same in Bosnia

It's the same in Kosovo

It's the same in Servia

STRAIGHTAWAY LYRICS - Sick Of This World

STRAIGHTAWAY LYRICS

"Sick Of This World"

So sick of this word where value’s defined by the balance of your bank account

Your purchasing power what you possess and what you can afford



Is it all our reason to live our reason to be?

The powers that be everything in which we believe

Welcome to this goldrush of modern times

A quest to money that they think in the end will make them feel so happy



So sick of this world where existence doesn’t make much sense

even with goodwill and strength

And there’s no choice but to be left ignored

when you’re not in the run for gain



Is it all our reason to live our reason to be?

The powers that be everything in which we believe

Welcome to this goldrush of modern times

A quest to money that they think in the end will make them feel so happy



The system’s changed and so have the principle and means

but the scheme remains all the same



Is it all our reason to live?

Is it all our reason to be?

The powers that be everything in which we believe

Welcome to this goldrush of modern times

A quest to money that they think in the end will make them feel so happy

JOHNNY HOBO AND THE FREIGHT TRAINS LYRICS - The Politics Of Holy Shit I Just Cut My Hand On A Bottle

JOHNNY HOBO AND THE FREIGHT TRAINS LYRICS

"The Politics Of Holy Shit I Just Cut My Hand On A Bottle"

He talks about nothing using too many words.

He talks revolution for an hour without using any verbs.

She acts the rage which is most of her problem.

In love with everyone until she wakes up tomorrow.



Another Saturday night.

Another fucking shitty Saturday night.



I'm spinning in the next room.

Slurring along to my isolation

At the top of my lungs.

I'm sitting here next to you.

Sore throat from jokes about all the dumbest things I've done.

I don't want to be anywhere at all.

Here or at my house kicking at the wall.



If home is where the heart is

Then I live in my upper chest.

I'm gonna drink until these tears

Start to taste like the cheap beer.

I'm gonna drink tonight until these tears

Start to taste like the cheap beer.



The bottles are stacked like they show how we're different.

And that maybe if we were sober we could explain what this all meant.

But pints of Vodka don't write poetry.

You can't rearrange crushed pills into melodies.



But I swear to fuck;

That a brick through a broken Starbucks window means more.

And I swear to fuck;

That we fight more systems when we're passed out on the floor.

Than the words of Kurt Vonnegut ever could.

And all the works of Karl Marx ever fucking could.



I'm puking in the next room.

Sorry about the carpet,

Clean it up or your mom'll be mad.

I'm pretending that I'm too good for you.

So you can't see the worthless pathetic person I am.



Better to seem like an asshole,

Than what you are.

The billionth teenage boy with social problems

To plays the guitar.



I'm not sure what I want you to say to me.

But I know the look on your face that I want to see.



If home is where the heart is

Then mine is a cigarette.

I'm gonna drink until these tears

Start to taste like the cheap beer.

I'm gonna drink tonight until these tears

Start to taste like the cheap beer.



I'm not you and that's good enough for me.

The only word that I use is fuck,

So you can forget the dictionary.



I can't tell what question you're asking.

I don't care 'cause no is my answer.



Another Saturday night.

I kissed everything on a Saturday night.



I'm bleeding in the next room.

Let it happen 'cause maybe the blood-loss will add to my high.

I'm here beating up on you.

'cause I'm just drunk enough to be sure that I'm ready to die.



I don't care that you don't care that I don't care.

The only card game I know is strip solitaire.



If home is where the heart is

Then I got evicted this week.

I'm gonna drink until these tears

Start to taste like the cheap beer.

I'm gonna drink tonight until these tears

Start to taste like the cheap beer.

PERCUS LYRICS - Majorities' Choice

PERCUS LYRICS

"Majorities' Choice"

So here we are, at the end of the road

And time is our enemy,

Theres nothing else to see

Only the revenge of the land and sea



There´s no way back there´s no way out,

The persuasive voices are getting louder than loud



The world has changed,

Into a mirror in that we see

What we have become

A witness is all I can see

Of the revenge of land and sea



There´s no way back there´s no way out,

The persuasive voices are getting louder than loud





We´re never looking forward to what could be,

When it´s too late to react we will plead on our knees

For a complete restoration of what we had

Complete restoration of something that will never come back.

PARK LYRICS - Day One And Counting

PARK LYRICS

"Day One And Counting"

a voice says don't bother screaming

day one has come and gone away

served on this diet of needles and knives

convincing myself to stay alive



are these the eyelids you tried to save?

(i drink to forget your face)

we all know what goes on,

and we know just what you've done.

it is even worth it to say im sorry, just because

such simple things i miss in spite of all this

is it even worth it to say im sorry, just move on



a voice says don't bother leaving,

day one has come and gone away.

choking on hopes, and words i never wrote,

i'll try to survive on this long night.



on this warm night the taste gets worst.

the lips i thought i touched now just hurt.

come on and catch me, i know that you want me.

its written all over your obvious arms.



the smell of your breath

the feel of your neck

the scent of assurance spilt over my neck

SATANIC SURFERS LYRICS - Lead Us To The Gallows

SATANIC SURFERS LYRICS

"Lead Us To The Gallows"

With a shrug of the shoulders and a grudging admission

we sell ourselves short

left them pave the path to downfall

lead us to the gallows

if there is no struggle there is no progress



If we stand for nothing-we fall for anything



The world is on a path of total destruction

We can stand by watching or do something about it

RAISED FIST LYRICS - Different But The Same

RAISED FIST LYRICS

"Different But The Same"

Can you turn away from the TV everyday?

Do you go to bed in time.

And do you work the next day?

Can you throw away your cigarettes for good?

Do you say I'm sorry every time you should?

Are you talking shit about anyone you know?

Are you hiding your pornography so that no on will know?

I'm not better than you.

You're not better than me.

We don't have to pretend that we're so divine.

Let's stop this silly charade.

You are what you always going to be.

Do you always treat the one you love with respect?

Are you gentle and nice against everything even insects?

Are you always sober on a weekday?

Are you filling up charity accounts and are your sponsoring greenpeace?

If you found a million dollars in a bag would you keep them?

Do you buy your computer games in the store or do you rip them off?

You probably rip them off!

ATLAS LOSING GRIP LYRICS - Shut The World Out

ATLAS LOSING GRIP LYRICS

"Shut The World Out"

I was very insecure as a kid but I found a place

inside myself where nobody could bully me, a haven

from that small-town mentality. A state of mind where

my emotions all were, and still are, something I didn't

need to be ashamed of. I still go to that place every

day and shut the world out, just shut it all out. It's what

keeps me going on when I feel I'm not so strong at all.

It's what keeps me holding on when I'm weak enough to

fall. Music lights a spark in me, finds the place where I

can express myself and be heard. And when I'm there I

can stay for hours.

THE CLASSIC CRIME LYRICS - The Count

THE CLASSIC CRIME LYRICS

"The Count"

Be good to me as you once were when you pulled me from the brink of death

My enemies were frenzied for a taste of my flesh

And now I've got the same feeling again

The beasts are closing in their teeth are dripping with rattlesnake poison



So I will run into Your open arms I've got nowhere else to go



I don't want to live like this anymore

Trading truth for the simple things

I don't want to live like this anymore

Will You give me the will to sing out

When I'm filled with the darkest of doubt

When I'm down for the count



Protect me from mutiny

From those who miscarried your baby

From those who miscarried the truth

So they could selfishly do whatever they thought was pleasing

Protect me from insincerity

From between their teeth it's practically oozing

Their eyes are hollow and blind they're always wasting my time

And it's time that I'm losing

THE EPOXIES LYRICS - My New World

THE EPOXIES LYRICS

"My New World"

I don't understand why everyone's so upset

About the way things are

I was born here and I love it here

And it seems to me we did ourselves a favor



Old people won't shut up about the 'Golden Age'

I've heard about your 'Golden Age'

And your generation line nostalgia

Makes me tune right out



Blah Blah, I miss the stars

I heard they look like pinpricks

In our sheet of tin-foil

Hung in the window of a dark room (BIG DEAL!)



They say the sunsets never used to look like this

All blues and greens, they're beautiful

Admit it! They're beautiful.



It was never an apocalypse

It was our rebirth, our brave new world

And World War X gave us chips in the head

Which gave us an edge on the walking dead



I'm not afraid of the living dead

All you gotta do is shoot 'em in the head

They fall right down and let's admit

They were the walking dead a long time ago



You there! The writing on the wall

It's funny how you never talk about that at all

But, as you can see from a thousand miles a way

Exactly where we'd be today



With your pre-coil production

Your genetics disasters

Your net imitations going faster and faster

Your super-colliders ripping holes in space

Your virtual worlds that deny time and place



Well, I'm glad we're here

This is my home

That world destroyed deserves to be gone

It's beautiful place full of new possibilities

The camera's wiped clean for new realities

THE GET UP KIDS LYRICS - I'll Catch You

THE GET UP KIDS LYRICS

"I'll Catch You"

can you sleep as the sound hits your ears one at a time?

an unspoken balance here, unabridged for so many years

that i should stare at receivers to receive her isn't fair



don't worry i'll catch you

don't worry i'll catch you

don't ever worry



your arms in mine, anytime

i wouldn't trade anything

you're still my everything

to my surprise, before my eyes, you arrive



don't worry i'll catch you

don't worry i'll catch you

don't ever worry



i'm still breaking old habits when you pulled the wool over me

i can see everything, (everything) remembering "jinx removing"



don't worry i'll catch you

don't worry i'll catch you

don't ever worry



no need for reminding... you're still all that matters to me

HOT HOT HEAT LYRICS - Ladies And Gentleman

HOT HOT HEAT LYRICS

"Ladies And Gentleman"

There's a gentleman who's not so gentle cuz he's too generous with his chit and his chat

So lately we've been discussing a way to rid this disgusting example of ample gossip and gab



All we hear is La La La...



He's a gentleman who plays a caricature of a character he wishes he was

So lately we've been ignoring all his stories as we smile and nod

and let him simply do what he does

So watch out



And everybody's got the same story:

We never wanted him here

He showed up anyway

He never would leave us alone

We never wanted him here

He showed up anyway

But maybe that's ok



Soon this gentleman was barking louder when his biting harder didn't earn him respect

But lately we've been too proud to admit that we all might miss him just a bit

now that he's packed up and left

What did we do?



And everybody's got the same story:

We never wanted him here

He showed up anyway

He never would leave us alone

We never wanted him here

He showed up anyway

But maybe that's ok



We never wanted him here

He showed up anyway

He never would leave us alone

We never wanted him here

And now he's gone for good

But maybe we've made a mistake

LAST WINTER LYRICS - Don't Forget To Write

LAST WINTER LYRICS

"Don't Forget To Write"

Everyday your picture fades.

The promises we made not forgotten.

So turn away. We could leave this place.

In these crowded streets of gray, you bring color.

So you say that you're leaving, but what are your reasons?

"I'm desperate and ashamed."

So go find your answers to get you home faster.

I know you'll find your way.

You'll find your way. You'll find your way.



I'm barely alive.

Though miles may come between us,

You're always and forever on my mind.

When you go don't forget to write.

You're the best that ever happened,

I never would imagine you would change my life.



Twelve days passed since I saw you last.

Only memories to keep me hanging on.

"I'm desperate and ashamed."

So go find you answers to get you home faster.

I know you'll find your way.

You're the best that ever happened,

I never would imagine you would change my life.



You would change my life.

You would change my life.

You would change my life.

"Have Fun Rotting By Yourself"

i'm taking the last train home tonight

i'm drinking but i can't get drunker than this

i'm running far away from my problems (i will give my last so long suckers, as you write down good byes)

i'm not waiting for you to decide what to pack (on the back of old post-its as i exit and die)

i'm not talking california (accept the fact that you will not be seeing me again)

there's never been a better time to get out of america (no more white flags i swear this time we're never gonna talk again)

He'll be one more dollar in their eyes. It makes my stomach turn but it lets me sleep at night.

SUGARCULT LYRICS - The Investigation

SUGARCULT LYRICS

"The Investigation"

Watching it burn to your fingertips

Everything stings a bit

Dangerous silence surrounds you

All of the ashtrays and magazines

Recurrent love themes

Captured by time zones that hurt you



This could be perfect

It could be worth it

This could be perfect

If I wasn't worthless



Breathing in slowly

Hearts beating lonely

Damaged by habits that haunt you

All of the goodbyes

All of the goodnights

All of the nice try's

Left you in the cold



This could be perfect

It could be worth it

This could be perfect

If I wasn't worthless



This could be perfect

This could be worth it



If I could be a part of your world

Leave this all behind

I would investigate a perfect life with you

If I could say it in another way

These words could make this right

I would investigate a perfect love with you



This could be perfect

This could be perfect

This could be perfect (this could be perfect)

This could be perfect (this could be perfect)



Watching it burn to your fingertips
