Jackson Browne --- Fountain of Sorrow.

 

Looking through some photographs I found inside a drawer, I was taken by a photograph of you.

There were one or two I know you would have liked a little more, but they didn't show your spirit quite as true.

You were turning 'round to see who was behind you and I took your childish laughter by surprise,

and at the moment that my camera happened to find you, there was just a trace of sorrow in your eyes.

 

Steely Dan --- Babylon Sisters.

 

Drive west on Sunset to the sea. Turn that jungle music down. Just until we're out of town.

This is no one night stand. It's a real occasion. Close your eyes and you'll be there. It's everything they say.

The end of a perfect day. Distant lights from across the bay.

Babylon sisters shake it.

 

Led Zeppelin --- I'm gonna crawl.

 

Oh, she's my baby. Let me tell you why. Hey, she drives me crazy. She's the apple of my eye.

'Cause she is my girl., and she can never do wrong. If I dream too much tonight, somebody please bring me down.

 

Bruce Springsteen

 

Thunder Road

"Don't piss off the Boys from Alabama

You know they won't let it slide

They might find your body in the Tennessee River

or they might not find you at all

There'll be no place to run and hide

and your family ain't safe at all

Don't piss off the Boys from Alabama

We're keeping an eye on you"

 

- Drive By Truckers "Boys From Alabama"

 

"Through eighty-six years of perpetual motion

If he likes you hell smile and hell say

Jimmy, some of its magic, some of its tragic

But I had a good life all the way"

 

- Jimmy Buffett "He Went to Paris"

I ain't often right

but I've never been wrong

It seldom turns out the way

it does in the song

 

Once in a while

you get shown the light

in the strangest of places

if you look at it right

 

-"Scarlet Begonias", Grateful Dead

Words by Robert Hunter; Music by Jerry Garcia

Pink Floyd.....Time

 

Tired of lying in the sunshine staying home to watch the rain

You are young and life is long and there is time to kill today

And then one day you find ten years have got behind you

No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun

... and you run and you run to catch up with the sun but it's sinking...

And I'm gonna go there free

Like the fool I am and I'll always be

I've got a dream, I've got a dream

They can change their minds but they cant change me

I've got a dream, I've got a dream

 

-- Jim Croce - "I Got A Name"

 

-- Brandi Carlile - "How These Days Grow Long (Live)"

(Just a great summer tune. I could cite many other songs by her. Do loiter around youtube a little if you have the time. In an age of a lot of crap music, BC is a throwback authentic.)

 

"Many years have passed

Since those summer days

Among the fields of barley

You can tell the sun in his jealous sky

That we walked in fields of gold"

 

-- Sting "Fields of Gold" (The Eva Cassidy cover is better suited). This song is providing me a little comfort in the wake of losing my grandfather (96yo, an old WNY farmer) and the best dog ever (we literally "walked in fields of gold" at the farm just before the funeral, we got home and then he went downhill with what turned out to be advanced cancer) about a week apart. This all was last month and I'm still a mess.

Mouthfull of Cavities by Blind Melon. Between the acoustic guitar and lyrics, this is one song I can listen to over and over.

 

Mouthful of cavities

Your souls a bowl of jokes

And everyday you remind me

How I'm desperately in need

 

See, I got a lot of fiends around

And they're peaking through nothing new

They see you

They see everything you do

 

See everything on the inside, out

 

Oh, please give me a little more

And I'll push away those baby blues

Cause one of these days this will die

So will me and so will you

 

I write a letter to a friend of mine

I tell him how much I used to love watch him smile

 

See I haven't seen him smile in a little while

 

Haven't seen him smile in a little while

 

But, I know you're laughing from the inside out

Laughin' from the inside out

I know you're laughing from the inside out

Laughing from the inside

From the inside

From the inside

From the inside

From the inside out

RHCP - Scar Tissue

 

"I'll make it to the moon if I have to crawl"

 

Sublime - Caress me down

 

"mucho gusto me llamo Bradley I’m hornier than Ron Jeremy

and if you wanna get popped in your knee

just wipe that look off your fat face

you hate me cause I got what you need

a pretty little daughter that we call mixie

if you wanna get beat psychically... it will be over in a minute if ya..

so she told me to come over and I took that trip

and then she pulled out my...

 

Elliot Smith - Between Bars

 

"drink up, baby, look at the stars

I'll kiss you again between the bars where I'm seeing you

there with your hands in the air, waiting to finally be caught"

 

MMJ - Bermuda Highway <------ AMAZING SONG

 

"Sometimes I walk around town looking at faces

Wonderin why their bodies go to silly places.

Walkin past the carpet mills looking in and takin stills,

Your ass it draws me in like a Bermuda highway.

Oh, don't carve me out!

Don't let your silly dreams,

Fall in between the crack of the bed and the wall.

Two times I fell asleep in a dirty basement

Snoozing in cobwebs and the cement.

Sometimes I wonder why that meek guy got all the fame,

Maybe im to blame for his short bitter !@#$ed up life. "

 

Eminem - Superman

 

"But I do know one thing though,

Bitches they come, they go,

Saturday through sunday monday,

Monday through sunday yo,

Maybe i'll love you one day,

Maybe we'll someday grow,

Till then just sit your drunk ass on that !@#$in runway hoe.."

Time Stand Still - Rush

 

Make each impression a little bit stronger

Freeze this moment a little bit longer

The innocence slips away...

 

Summer's going fast,

Nights growing colder

Children growing up-

Old friends growing older

Experience slips away...

 

That song is on one of my least favorite Rush albums, but those lyrics are really beginning to hit home with me. My kids are growing up way too fast....

There's only one girl that I will ever love

And that was so many years ago

And though I know I'll never get her out of my heart

She never loved me back

Ooh I know

 

I remember how she left me on a stormy night

She kissed me and got out of our bed

And though I pleaded and I begged her not to walk out that door

She packed her bags and turned right away

And she kept on telling me

She kept on telling me

She kept on telling me

 

I want you

I need you

But there ain't no way I'm ever gonna love you

Now don't be sad...

'Cause two out of three ain't bad

I want you

I need you

But there ain't no way I'm ever gonna love you

Now don't be sad

'Cause two out of three ain't bad

Don't be sad

'Cause two out of three ain't bad

 

- Meatloaf; Two out of three ain't bad

 

 

Many times I've been alone

And many times I've cried

Any way you'll never know

The many ways I've tried

 

But still they lead me back

To the long winding road

You left me standing here

A long long time ago

Dont leave me waiting here

Lead me to your door

 

- Beatles; Long and winding road

 

 

This is the end

Beautiful friend

This is the end

My only friend, the end

 

Of our elaborate plans, the end

Of everything that stands, the end

No safety or surprise, the end

I'll never look into your eyes...again

 

- Doors; The End

 

 

Sail on silvergirl,

Sail on by.

Your time has come to shine.

All your dreams are on their way.

See how they shine.

If you need a friend

Im sailing right behind.

Like a bridge over troubled water

I will ease your mind.

Like a bridge over troubled water

I will ease your mind

 

- Simon & Garfunkel; Bridge over troubled water

There's a shadow just behind me,

shrouding every step I take,

making every promise empty,

pointing every finger at me.

Waiting like a stalking butler

who upon the finger rests.

Murder now the path called must we

just before the son has come.

 

Jesus, won't you f#cking whistle

something but the past and done?

Jesus, won't you f#cking whistle

Something but the past and done?

 

Why can't we not be sober?

I just want to start this over.

Why can't we drink forever.

I just want to start this over.

 

I am just a worthless liar.

I am just an imbecile.

I will only complicate you.

Trust in me and fall as well.

I will find a center in you.

I will chew it up and leave,

I will work to elevate you

just enough to bring you down.

 

Mother Mary won't you whisper

something but the past and done.

Mother Mary won't you whisper

something but the past and done.

 

Why can't we not be sober?

I just want to start this over.

Why can't we sleep forever.

I just want to start this over.

 

I am just a worthless liar.

I am just an imbecile.

I will only complicate you.

Trust in me and fall as well.

I will find a center in you.

I will chew it up and leave,

 

Trust me. Trust me. Trust me. Trust me. Trust Me.

 

Why can't we not be sober?

I just want to start this over.

Why can't we sleep forever.

I just want to start this over.

 

I want what I want.

I want what I want.

I want what I want.

I want what I want.

 

 

 

Tool

Sober

 

one of my top 5 all time

"God is in his heaven,

And we all want what's his,

But power and greed and corruptible seed,

seem to be all that there is" - Bob Dylan "Blind Willie McTell"

 

"Then I got Mary pregnant,

And man that was all she wrote,

For my 19th birthday,

I got a union card and a wedding coat,

We went down to the courthouse,

And the judge put it all to rest,

No wedding day smiles, no walk down the aisles,

no flowers, no wedding dress" - Bruce Springsteen "The River"
