Final Fantasy for the Day

You know what, Charlie Brown?
I think I can relate to you
You're always feeling down
Everyone's always pickin on you

Pretending to be a cool punk rocker
Then getting shoved into your locker
Then facing the teacher's glower
As you explain why you missed third hour

But the times have changed
Yeah, high school's not what it used to be
It's rearranged
It's cooler to be a dork like me
My braces can shine brighter than your earing can
And my friends don't care that I drive a minivan
And I'll watch Sci-Fi after I play
My Final Fantasy for the Day

So what if my socks
have big red stripes on the ends?
So what if my Reeboks
Have stuff written on them by my friends?

I would rather play DDR
It's better than getting drunk by far
Linux is the choice for me
And all my friends seem to agree

Cause the times have changed
Yeah, nerds and dorks are so much cooler
It's rearranged
It's a tough choice between school or
Making Flash cartoons for my website
Or staying on Kazaa all through the night
Or saving Zelda before I play
My Final Fantasy for the Day.

I really enjoyed this song from the first time I heard it on the radio, but only just a few days ago I had noticed the lyrics, while watching the music video. The last line just...really strikes me.



A fortune of one that means less for some. Hm. Strikes me even harder when I'm watching the video (it's on Launch if anyone wants to see it).

"This music video cost $150,000. See something wrong? This music video cost $15."

It's been a while since I've posted on this thread...I hope I didn't post these already.

Barenaked Ladies - Tonight Is The Night I Fell Asleep At The Wheel

Driving home to be with you
The highway's dividing, the city's in view
As usual, I'm almost on time
You're the last thing that's on my mind
I wish I could tell you the way that I feel
But tonight is the night I fell asleep at the wheel

No commotion, no screaming brakes
Most of it's over before I awake
From the ceiling, my coffee cup drips
While out my window, the horizon does flips
The worst part was hitting the ground
Not the feeling so much as the sound
Can't help but wonder if all this is real
'Cause tonight is the night I fell asleep at the wheel

Rubberneck traffic and passersby
And Slow Motion Walter the fire engine guy
Stand around with their mouths open wide
I heard some idiot ask if someone's inside
With the Jaws of Life they tried and they tried
Nobody here can know how I feel
'Cause tonight is the night I fell asleep at the wheel

I guess it's over now
'Cause I've never seen so much, never seen so much
Never seen so much, never seen so much
I guess it's over now
'Cause I've never seen so much
Never seen so much, never seen so much blood

In all the confusion, there's something serene
I'm just a posthumous part of the scene.
Now I'm floating above looking in
As the radio blares and wheels spin
I can see my face slump with a grin
And you... you're the last thing on my mind
You're the last thing on my mind
You're the last thing on my mind
You're the last thing on my mind


Third Eye Blind - Motorcycle Drive By

Summer time and the wind is blowing
Outside in lower Chelsea
And I don't know
What I'm doing in the city
The sun is always in my eyes
It crashes through the windows
And I'm sleeping on the couch
When I came to visit you
That's when I knew
That I could never have you
I knew that before you did
Still I'm the one who's stupid

And there's this burning
Like there's always been
I've never been so alone
And I've never been so alive

Visions of you on a motorcycle drive by
The cigarette ash flies in your eyes
And you don't mind
You smile
And say the world it doesn't fit with you
I don't believe you
You're so serene
Careening through the universe
Your axis on a tilt
You're guiltless and free
I hope you take a piece of me with you

And there are things I would like to do
That you don't believe in
I would like to build something
But you'll never see it happen

And there's this burning
Like there's always been
I've never been so alone
And I've, I've never been so alive

And there's this burning
There was this burning

Where's the soul?
I wanna know
New York City's evil
The surface is everything
But I could never do that
Someone would see through that
And this is the last time
We'll be friends again
And I'll get over you
You won't know who I am

And there's this burning
Just like there's always been
I've never been so alone
And I've, and I've never been so alive
So alive

I go home to the coast
It starts to rain
I paddle out on the water
Alone
Taste the salt
And taste the pain
I'm not thinking of you again
Summer dies and swells rise
The sun goes down in my eyes
See this broken wave
Darkly coming
To take me
Home

And I've never been so alone
And I've never been so alive


Green Day - Give Me Novicaine

Take away the sensation inside
Bitter sweet migraine in my head
Its like a throbbing tooth ache of the mind
I can't take this feeling anymore

Drain the pressure from the swelling,
The sensations overwhelming,
Give me a long kiss goodnight
and everything will be alright
Tell me that I won't feel a thing
So give me Novicaine

Out of body and out of mind
Kiss the demons out of my dreams
I get the funny feeling, that’s alright
Jimmy says it's better than air,
I’ll tell you why

Drain the pressure from the swelling,
The sensations overwhelming,
Give me a long kiss goodnight
and everything will be alright
Tell me that I won't feel a thing,
So give me Novicaine

Oh Novicaine

Drain the pressure from the swelling,
The sensations overwhelming
Give me a long kiss goodnight
and everything will be alright
Tell me Jimmy I won't feel a thing,
So give me Novicaine

When in doubt, go to the DatMHO (Denver and the Mile-High Orchestra) website. I know these are right!

Musical Time

Prologue - Little Shop of Horrors Original Broadway Cast

On the twenty-third day of the month of September
in an early year of a decade not too long before our own,
the human race suddenly encountered a deadly
threat to its very existence.
And this terrifying enemy surfaced,
as such enemies often do,
in the seemingly most innocent and unlikely of places.

[CRYSTAL, RONETTE, CHIFFON]
Little shop, little shoppa horrors.
Little shop, little shoppa terror.
Call a cop. Little shoppa horrors.
No, oh, oh, no-oh!

Little shop, little shoppa horrors.
Bop sh'bop, little shoppa terror.
Watch 'em drop! Little shoppa horrors.
No, oh, oh, no-oh!

Shing-a-ling, what a creepy thing
to be happening!
Shang-a-lang, feel the sturm
and drang in the air.

Sha-la-la, stop right where you are.
Don't you move a thing.
You better (tellin' you, you better)
Tell your mama somethin's gonna
get her
She better (ev'rybody better)
Beware!

Little shop, little shoppa horrors.
Bop sh-bop, you'll never stop
the terror.
Little shop, little shoppa horrors.
No, oh, oh, no, oh, oh, no, oh, oh, no

Da-Doo - LOSH Original Broadway Cast

[SEYMOUR]
Da-doo,
I was walkin' in the wholesale flower district that day
Shoop da-doo,
and I passed by this place where this old Chinese man
Chang da-doo
he sometimes sells me weird and exotic cuttings,
Snip da-doo,
'cause he knows, you see, that strange plants are my hobby.
Da da da da da da-doo.

He didn't have anything unusual there that day.

Nope, da-doo,
so I was just about to, ya know, walk on by,
Good for you,
when suddenly,
Da doo
and without warning, there was this total eclipse of the sun.

It got very dark and there was this strange
sound like something from another world.
Da-doo,
And when the light came back this weird plant was just sitting there,

whoop-see-doo
just, you know, stuck in, among the zinnias.
Audrey Two.
I coulda sworn it hadn't been there before,
but the old Chinese man sold it to me anyways,
for a dollar ninety-five.
Sha la la, la la la, la la la loo.

Saturday Night - The Rocky Horror Picture Show OST

Whatever happened to Saturday night
When you dressed up sharp and you felt alright?
It don't seem the same since cosmic light
Came into my life, I thought I was divine...

I used to go for a ride with a chick who'd go
And listen to the music on the radio
A saxophone was blowin' on a rock & roll show.
You climbed in the back seat, you really had a good time.

Hot patootie, bless my soul, I really love that rock 'n' roll.

My head used to swim from the perfume I smelled
My hands kind of fumbled with her white plastic belt
I'd taste her baby pink lipstick and that's when I'd melt
She'd whisper in my ear tonight she really was mine

Get back in front, put some hair oil on
Buddy Holly was singing his very last song.
With your arms around your girl you'd try to sing along.
It felt pretty good, oh, you really had a good time.

Hot patootie, bless my soul, I really love that rock 'n' roll.

Eddie's Teddy - The Rocky Horror Picture Show OST

Dr. Scott:
From the day he was born
He was trouble.
He was the thorn
In his mother's side.
She tried in vain

Crim:
...but he never caused her nothing
but shame.

Dr. Scott:
He left home the day she died.

From the day she was gone
All he wanted
Was Rock `n' Roll porn
Und a motorbike.
Shooting up junk...

Crim:
He was a low down cheap little punk!

Scott:
Taking everyone for a ride.

All:
When Eddie said he didn't like his Teddy
You knew he was a no-good kid.
But when he threatened your life with a switch-blade knife

Frank:
What a guy!

Janet:
Makes you cry.

Scott:
Und I did.

Columbia:
Everybody shoved him.
I very nearly loved him.
I said, hey, listen to me;
Stay sane inside insanity!
But he locked the door and threw away the key.

Scott:
But he must have been drawn
Into something,
Making him warn
Me in a note which reads...

All:
What's it say? What's it say?

Eddie:
I'm out of my head.
Oh, hurry, or I may be dead.
They mustn't carry out their evil deeds. (scream)

All:
When Eddie said he didn't like his Teddy
You knew he was a no-good kid.
But when he threatened your life with a switch-blade knife

Frank:
What a guy!

Janet:
Makes you cry.

Scott:
Und I did.

All:
When Eddie said he didn't like his Teddy
You knew he was a no-good kid.
But when he threatened your life
With a switch-blade knife

Frank:
What a guy! (Whoa, oh, oh.)

Janet:
Makes you cry. (Hey, hey, hey.)

Scott:
Und I did. (I did.)

Yeah, I have a bunch more, but those are some super inspirational ones for me^^*

LSI FINALLY HAS HEALING RAIN!

Healing Rain, Michael W. Smith


Wow, I wasn't that off. However, I was bad on Hold On and I thought I knew it.

Black Sabbath --- Iron Man

{I am Iron Man}

Has he lost his mind?
Can he see or is he blind?
Can he walk at all,
Or if he moves will he fall?

Is he alive or dead?
Has he thoughts within his head?
We'll just pass him there
Why should we even care?

He was turned to steel
In the great magnetic field
Where he traveled time
For the future of mankind

Nobody wants him
He just stares at the world
Planning his vengeance
That he will soon unfold

Now the time is here
For Iron Man to spread fear
Vengeance from the grave
Kills the people he once saved

Nobody wants him
They just turn their heads
Nobody helps him
Now he has his revenge

Heavy boots of lead
Fills his victims full of dread
Running as fast as they can
Iron Man lives again!


Black Sabbath --- War Pigs

Generals gathered in their masses
Just like witches at black masses
Evil minds that plot destruction
Sorcerers of death's construction

In the fields the bodies burning
As the war machine keeps turning
Death and hatred to mankind
Poisoning their brainwashed minds,

Oh lord yeah!

Politicians hide themselves away
They only started the war
Why should they go out to fight?
They leave that role to the poor

Time will tell on their power minds
Making war just for fun
Treating people just like pawns in chess
Wait 'till their judgement day comes, yeah!

Now in darkness, world stops turning
Ashes were the bodies burning
No more war pigs of the power
Hand of god has struck the hour

Day of judgement, god is calling
On their knees, the war pigs crawling
Begging mercy for their sins
Satan, laughing, spreads his wings

OH LORD YEAH!

Ok, I couldn't resist it any longer, the song that inspired my current set, and that I'm just so obsessed with lately:

Bent
by Matchbox Twenty

And if I fall along the way
Pick me up and dust me off
And if I get too tired to make it
Be my breath so I can walk

And if I need some other love
Then give me more than I can stand
When my smile gets old and faded
Wait around I'll smile again

Shouldn't be so complicated
Just hold me and then
Just hold me again

Can you help me?
I'm bent
I'm so scared that I'll never
Get put back together
Keep breaking me in
And this is how we will end
With you and me bent

And if I couldn't sleep
Could you sleep?
Could you paint me better off?
And could you sympathise with my needs?
I know you think I need a lot

I started out clean, but I'm jaded
Just phoning it in
Just breaking the skin

Can you help me?
I'm bent
I'm so scared that I'll never
Get put back together
Keep breaking me in
And this is how we will end
With you and me bent

Start bending me
It's never enough
'Til I feel all your pieces
Start bending me
Keep bending me
Until I'm completely broken in

Shouldn't be so complicated
Just touch me and then
Just touch me again

Can you help me?
I'm bent
I'm so scared that I'll never
Get put back together
Keep breaking me in
And this is how we will end
With you and me bent
And without understanding

Hell, I'll go there again
Can you help me?
I'm bent
I'm so scared that I'll never
Get put back together
Yea, you're breaking me in
And this is how we will end
With you and me...
Bent.

I had that song playing on my computer when I started reading your post. Freaky...


Anyways, here's another song I love, that I hopefully haven't posted yet...

Third Eye Blind - My Hit and Run

Feel the speed through the intersection
In sheets of rain I seek out cars
Hands in gloves grip handlebars

Ride alone to the pub in the dark
I get a little wet but I don't have to park
And the lights start flashing green to red as I ride
A car turns left and I slide
I can't turn back
I make contact
Blinkers smash into mosaic
Then I start flying

Always think we get more time
Now flying through the air
Maybe living maybe dying
In this motor crash it's you who comes to mind
Don't we always wish we had more time

I'm thrust slow mo through time and space
Details smash and
I protect my face
And then I see yours
And go to a time when we just knew

Mister death in the car below
Doesn't even slow
And away he goes
In the majesty of a motor crash
You skid into my darkness forming
Sex and death, heartbreak and strife
They give no warning

Always think we get more time
Now I'm flying through the air
And it's you who comes to mind
And the red lights like cathedrals they're a sign
Don't we always wish we get more time

Here it comes, my hit and run

Always think we get more time
Then you're flying through the air
With someone on your mind
And the shattered glass reflections there's a sign
Cause you were there
And I wish we had more time

Come down hard and roll to my feet
And rain washes blood now off concrete
People turn away and I just had to laugh
Cause I'm still flying
Living and dying

Always think we get more time
You're flying through the air
With someone on your mind
If this motorcycle crashing is a sign
Cause you were there
And I wish we had more time

And I'd like to thank mister death for what he's done
Cause I got to walk away from my hit and run
Mysteries are not so empty now as they seemed
Cause I saw you
On my hit and run
On my hit and run

Relient K - High of 75

We were talking together
I said, "What's up with this weather?"
Don't know whether or not
How sad I just got
Was on my own volition
Or if I'm just missing
The sun

And tomorrow I know
Will be rainy at best
And the forecast I know
Is that I'll be depressed
But I'll wait outside
Hoping that I'll catch sight
Of the sun

Because on and off
The clouds have fought
For control over the sky
And lately the weather has been so bi-polar
And consequently so have I

But now I'm
Sunny with a high of 75
Since you took my heaver heart and made it light
And its funny how you find you enjoy your life
When you're happy to be alive

And the temperature is freezing
And then after dark
There's a cold front
Sweeping in over my heart
And we might break up
If I don't wake up to the sun


Relient K - Maintain Consciousness

Our concentration it contains a deadly flaw
Our conversations change from words to blah, blah, blah
We took prescription drugs but look how much good that did
Well I think I had a point, but I just got distracted

Lately it just seems to me
Like we've got the letters A.D.D.
Branded into our mentality
We simply can't focus on anything

Because its
17, 18, 19 routine
And here at 23 it's the same old me
And that one thing of the moment
That we all happen to like will
Only very temporarily
Kinda break the cycle
Of the double edged sword
Of being lazy and being bored
We just want more and more and more
Till it's all we can afford

To keep our eyes open for just one more day
To keep on hoping that we'll stumble on a way
To keep our minds open for just one more day
Cause it's completely up to us
To maintain consciousness

Well no one can possibly listen to this
More than 4 reps is just monotonous
We're losing interest, losing interest, losing interest

I love MMHMM.

R.E.M featuring Q-Tip - The Outsiders

You took me to the restaurant where we first met.
You knocked a future shock crowbar upside my head.
I got caught with the stop of the tick tock, tick tock clock
When you told me what you knew.
Lost in the moment, the day that the music stopped.
And I do remember you.

Drawing patterns with a cork on the tableloth
Promising volcanic change of plot.
Where will this lead us? I'm scared of the storm
The outsiders are gathering. A new day is born.

I tried to tell you I am not afraid
you looked up and saw it all across my face
so am I with you or am I against?
I don't think it's that easy, we're lost in regret.
now I'm trying to remember the feeling when the music stopped.
when you told me what you knew.
lost in the moment, the day that the music stopped.
and I do remember you.

Drawing patterns with a cork on the tablecloth
Promising volcanic change of plot
Where does this leave us, I'm scared of the storm.
The outsiders are gathering, A new day is born.

Drawing patterns with a cork on the tablecloth
Promising volcanic change of thought.
Where does this leave us, I'm scared of the storm.
The outsiders are gathering, A new day is born.

The outsiders are gathering, A new day is born.
The outsiders are gathering.

A man walks away. when every muscle says to stay.
How many yesterdays? they each weigh heavy.
Who says what changes may come. who says what we call home.
I know you see right through me, my luminescence fades,
The dusk provides an antidote, I am not afraid.
I've been a million times, in my mind, and this is really just a technicality.
Frailty. Reality.

uh, It's time to breathe. Time to believe. Let it go and run towards the sea.
They don't teach that, they don't know what you mean.
They don't understand, they don't know what you mean.
They don't get it, I want to scream.
I want to breathe again, I want to dream.
I want to float a quote from Martin Luther King

I am not afraid I am not afraid I am not afraid
I am not afraid I am not afraid I am not afraid I am not afraid.

Well I'm not typically a big country music fan, but I really like this song ^_^

Whiskey Lullaby
Brad Paisley/Alison Krauss

(Brad)
She put him out like the burnin' end of a midnight cigarette
She broke his heart, he spent his whole life tryin' to forget
We watched him drink his pain away a little at a time
But he never could get drunk enough to get her off his mind
Until the night.

Chorus:
He put that bottle to his head and pulled the trigger
And finally drank away her memory
Life is short but this time it was bigger
Than the strength he had to get up off his knees
We found him with his face down in the pillow
With a note that said I'll love her 'til I die
And when we buried him beneath the willow
The angels sang a whiskey lullaby.

(Both)
La la la la la la la
La la la la la la la.

La la la la la la la
La la la la la la la.

(Alison)
The rumors flew but nobody knew how much she blamed herself
For years and years she tried to hide the whiskey on her breath
She finally drank her pain away a little at a time
But she never could get drunk enough to get him off her mind,
Until the night.

Chorus: (Both)
She put that bottle to her head and pulled the trigger
And finally drank away his memory
Life is short but this time it was bigger
Than the strength she had to get up off her knees
We found her with her face down in the pillow
Clinging to his picture for dear life
We laid her next to him beneath the willow
While the angels sang a whiskey lullaby.

La la la la la la la
La la la la la la la.

--- Instrumental ---

La la la la la la la
La la la la la la la.

La la la la la la la
La la la la la la la.
