In with the ashes/up with the smoke from the fire/with wings up in heaven/or here, lying in bed/with the palm of her hand to my head/now, and forever curled/in my heart, and the heart of the world-Dream Theater "Wait for Sleep" (I'm gonna be embarassed if that's not what he's actually saying but it sure sounds like it..)

all here for taken away
and my white ceiling is turning blue today
but as my eyes close the bed swallows another simple day
in the absence of some feeling i am really okay

that's from all here for by liam the younger. i like his lyrics a lot. i can't write lyrics for some reason. i guess this means i have to try harder.

Two sections from The Patient, by Tool. I always loved the lyrics from this song:

"A groan of tedium escapes me,
Startling the fearful.
Is this a test? It has to be,
Otherwise I can't go on"

"If there were no rewards to reap,
No loving embrace to see me through
This tedious path I've chosen here,
I certainly would've walked away by now"

[Big Mon]

We are the Sherlock Holmes/English speaking vernacular/help save Fu Manchu/Moriarty and Dracular
The Kinks-We are the Village Green Preservation Society/Album of the same name

Saving my money
Dreaming of glory
Twitching like a finger
On the trigger of a gun

Nothing but the dead and dying
Back in my little town
-Paul Simon("My Little Town")

We can do it softcore if you want
But you should know that I go both ways
-Kevin Barnes aka Of Montreal("For Our Elegant Caste")

He's the kind of guy
who would leave you in a K-hole
to go play Halo
in the other room
-Of Montreal("Beware our Nubile Miscreants")

[Jero]

Between the iron gates of fate, the seeds of time were sown
And watered by the deeds of those, who know and who are known;
Knowledge is a deadly friend, if no one sets the rules
The fate of all mankind I see is in the hands of fools

"Epitaph" by King Crimson, In the Court of The Crimson King

[Derelict78]

physically as far as we can go... next stage mental
the process is you
justification decentralized by conditioned guilt
fear responses
realize
for individuals who wish to acquire
sigil to the will
give the mind before which is a function of the self to react
and this focusing releases a tremendous energy
as the concourse lowers positive flow of energy
so be it
the process
so be it
Process-Skinny Puppy
