You can't run away forever
But there's nothing wrong with getting a good head start I'm not afraid to show you who I am And I am not ashamed of my life Though I've walked alone down this cold and soulless road I've always felt you deep in my bones Money is power, power is fame And my ultimate fav has to be 'Im gonna hit the highway like a batterin ram, Im a cilla Black fan allright' |

Then I saw you like a summer dream
And you´re the answer to every pray that I ever said |

My heart flowed through my broken voice to her.
well I know I was never much than you expected so I expect I won't disappoint. We've got two thousand miles between here and home, they won't even know we're gone I want to take you in my backseat now and slowly drive you home. so much more, but one coming from Handbasket, the entire 40 days, especially how Meat nails it. |

'Maybe I'm crazy, and I'm losing my senses
Maybe I'm possessed by a spirit or such Maybe I'm desp'rate and I've got no defences Can you get me a prescription for that one perfect touch' 'I'm not afraid to show you who I am And I am not ashamed of my life' and for personal reasons the sencond and third verses of 'Objects'. |

**Just a few of my favs**
I remember everything, I remember every little thing as if it only happened yesterday I was barely 17. And I said daddy you know I love you but you got hell a lot to learn about Rock N Roll. Theres nothing wrong with getting a good head start. Maybe you can talk all night but that will never change the way I feel I want you, I need you but I'm never gonna love you |

WAY WAY too many to narrow it down to a favorite but some I really like are
Peel Out...My body is the car and my soul is the ignition Your love will be the key and we'll jockey for position till we Piece of the action... They hand you a paycheck every week and steal a piece of your soul every day Execution day... Father my hand's are shakin' I see a light that's breakin' Show me a way to set my soul free All of me... This is my anger, These are my doubts, These are my emotions, all strung out. + the whole of Heaven can wait & For crying out loud. |

"Rock And Roll Hero" :
When the white hot lights cut thru the night And the sound of the thunder starts roaring That's when you know what you're savin' it for And you're feeling like a rock 'n' roll hero "Did I Say That" : Did I say that? Sometimes you know I over react And what I say is not a matter of fact I wish that I could take it all back "Another Day" : For me I think the hardest part Is just watching while she falls apart I try but we both know it's true There ain't a damn thing I can do Jim lyrics? Maybe this : "Objects In The Rear View Mirror May Appear Closer Than They Are" : if life is just a highway, then the soul is just a car |

Also the following line from Good Girls Go To Heaven always makes me laugh:
Oh the seconds go on for ever, but the third and the fourth ones are even better! Genius! |

"And though the nightmares should be over
Some of the terrors are still intact I'll hear that ugly coarse and violent voice And then he grabs me from behind and then he pulls me back". The child inside of me still cries evertime I think about those words. |

Although Jim is the Ultimate Lyricist and I cant choose because I love them all, the one I find myself thinking about the most and singing the most is from Objects:
"She used her body just like a bandage, She used my body just like a wound. I'll never know where she disappeared But I can see her rising up out of the back seat now" It's a lovely ending to a tragic song |

"I treasure your love,
I never wanna lose it, You've been through the fires of hell, And I know you've got the ashes to prove it. Remember everything that I've told you And I'm telling you again that it's true You're never alone, 'cause you can put on the 'phones, And let the drummer telly your heart what to do." Changed my whole life, and I was very proud to walk the aisle at our wedding to it |

When I listen to your heart I hear the whole world turning, I see the shooting stars falling through your trembling hands.

Just some that come to mind at the moment:
Then I'm dying at the bottom of a pit in the blazing sun Torn and twisted at the foot of a burning bike And I think somebody somewhere must be tolling a bell And the last thing I see is my heart Still beating Breaking out of my body and flying away Like a Bat out of Hell You'll never find your gold on a sandy beach You'll never drill for oil on a city street I know you're looking for a ruby in a mountain of rocks But there ain't no coup de ville Hiding at the bottom of a crackerjack box Though it's cold and lonely in the deep dark night I can see paradise by the dashboard light Though it's cold and lonely in the deep dark night Paradise by the dashboard light I'm in the middle of nowhere Near the end of the line But there's a border to somewhere waiting And there's a tankful of time Give me just another moment to see the light of the day And take me to another land where I don't have to stay And I'm gonna need somebody to make me feel like you do And I will receive somebody with open arms, open eyes Open up the sky and let the planet that I love shine through Now I think I'm gonna have to leave you Because I'm feeling much too weak to share And the pie, oh it's cut in too many pieces The flavor that I crave is no longer there If everything is permitted If nothing ever is taboo Then there is always something shattered When there is something breaking through Brother to brother All the blood runs red Don't roll over, don't play dead We're all living on Razor's Edge Can't you hear the planet groaning like a broken down machine Rusted with the guilty tears of fallen kings and queens But you and I stand innocent Baby, it's a brand new world Gimmee the future with a modern girl Your heart is trying to rock but it can barely beat at all Your soul is trying to run but all your body does is crawl You don't need any signal You don't need any sign Nothing's gonna stop you Once you cross over the line Father, my hands are shaking I see the light that's breaking Show me the way to set my soul free I hope it rains on me Let it rain on me I don't want to live without love anymore I just want to live my life Love's gonna open up the door Show me it's light again After a while you'll forget everything It was a brief interlude and a midsummer night's fling And you'll see that it's time to move on There's desperation There's desperation in the air It leaves a stain on all your clothes And no detergent gets it out Once upon a time was a backbeat Once upon a time all the chords came to life And the angels had guitars even before they had wings If you hold onto a chorus you can get through the night Is this a blessing? Or is it a curse? Does it get any better? Can it get any worse? Will it go on forever? Or is it over tonight? Does it come with the darkness? Does it bring out the light? Is it richer than diamonds? Or just a little cheaper than spit? I don't know what it is but it just won't quit I don't know what it is but it just won't quit Somewhere some girl is crazy And some body's half out of his head Somewhere there's just a moment Where it all remains unsaid Somewhere two hearts are pounding And they don't care what's correct Somewhere somebody's falling in love... You can dance forever You've got a fire in your feet But will it ever be enough? You know that it'll never be enough You can fly and never land And never need to sleep But will it ever be enough? You know that it'll never be enough Just do it! The final words on the final page Will be your name cause I believe Your love is blind Blind as a Bat Can't you hear the choir now? Listen to the animals sing Can't you hear the slaughterhouse bells? In the land of the pig the butcher is king In the land of the pig the butcher is king Let your dreams out of their cages Every passion and desire Let your visions be outrageous Set your fantasies on fire Everything will be permitted There'll be nothing left to fear I've got the magic in your body Your inhibitions disappear Have you a heart that beats? Have you a breath to breathe? And have you veins that bleed? Have you a brain that dreams? Is it so hard to see That we're all the same machine? Don't we all live and die Under the same Blue Sky? |
