When the screws are tightening and the tears are falling, I can hear her crying out to be saved,
And like a bolt of lightning I go answer the call,
And she's singing like a siren to me over the waves,

I never wanted to take away your lover
Until I heard her crying out to be saved
I always thought of you as one of my brothers
But she's singing like a siren to me over the waves
Singing like a siren to me over the waves
There ain't no holding me down


AWESOME! And the line "If you give me your girl and if you give me your trust and if you give me till the end of the night, I'm gonna love her for both of us" is brilliant.

Also, I love:

I'm not afraid of the the truth no more
I'm not afraid of the lies I hid
I'm not afraid of the price of my sins
I curse the day for the wrongs I did

So much power!

Where time means nothing. No hustle. No one rushing. No wrong or wright. No day or night. No towns or no cities. There's no pain, no pity. Where hunger is no longer. And a good man just gets stronger. Where angels sing. Amazing, amazing, amazing song.

I'm Gonna Love Her For Both Of Us - Dead Ringer

I can't stand to see it no more the way you're living with a
Goddess
But you treat her like a slave and you can't hold her back anymore
She's like a dreamer in a dungeon or an Angel in a cave

And I'll be closer to you now than any other boy
and you know what I'm saying is true you're gonna break her up
And tear her down and fade her away
And then there's no telling what I'm gonna do
I'll make you pay for everything that you do
I'll make you pay for everything that you do

But if you give me your girl and then you give me your trust
And if you give me till the end of the night-
I'm gonna love her for both of us

I'm gonna give her everything you always wanted to give
I'm gonna love her for both of us
I'm gonna take her every moment that she wanted to live

I'll let her shine like a jewell in the crown of the holy sun
You turned her into a ghost but she'll be burning when the night is
done
I'll let her shine like a jewell in the crown of the holy sun
You turned her into a ghost but she'll be burning when the night is
done

You gotta give me your girl and your trust
I'm gonna love her for both of us

You can't hide anymore you had a chance and you blew it
And you'll never get it back and your holiness was never so pure
She needs a fire in the heart and not a stabbing in the back

And I've been closer to you now than any other boy
So you know what I'm saying is true you're gonna break her up
And tear her down and fade her away
And then there's no telling what I'm gonna do
I'll make you pay for everything that you do
I'll make you pay for everything that you do

But if you give me your girl and then you give me your trust
And if you give me till the end of the night -
I'm gonna love her for both of us
I'm gonna give her everything you always wanted to give
I'm gonna love her for both of us
I'm gonna take her every moment that she wanted to live
I'll let her shine like a jewell in the crown of the holy sun
You turned her into a ghost but she'll be burning when the night is
done
I'll let her shine like a jewell in the crown of the holy sun
You turned her into a ghost but she'll be burning when the night is
done
You gotta give me your girl and your trust
I'm gonna love her for both of us

When the screws are tightnin' and the tears are falling
I can hear her crying out to be saved and like a bolt of lightning
I go answer the call but then
She's singing like a siren to me over the waves

I never wanted to take away your lover
Until I heard her cry out to be saved
I always thought of you as one of my brothers
But she's singing like a siren to me over the waves
Singing like a siren to me over the waves
There ain't no holding me down

I'll let her shine like a jewell in the crown of the holy sun
You turned her into a ghost but she'll be burning when the night is
done
I'll let her shine like a jewell in the crown of the holy sun
You turned her into a ghost but she'll be burning when the night is
done
You gotta give me your girl and your trust
I'm gonna love her for both of us

I'm gonna love her for both of us
I'm gonna love her for both of us
I'm gonna love her for both of us
Gonna give her everything you always wanted to give
I'm gonna love her for both of us
Gonna give her everything you always wanted to give
I'm gonna love her for both of us
Gonna give her everything you always wanted to give
I'm gonna love her for both of us

I just love the lyrics to this, their so powerful.

And my body is burnin' like a naked wire
I wanna turn on the juice
I wanna fall in the fire
I'm gonna drown in the ocean in a bottomless sea
I'm gonna give you all I'm hopin' you'll be givin' to me
And when the waves are poundin' on the sand tonight
I wanna take your hand and make it good and make it right
Wow the sky is trembling and the moon is pale
We're on the edge of forever and we're never gonna fail

How hard
How hard
How hard do I gotta try
(I want all of your love)
Surf's up
(I need it so bad)
Surf's up
(I need it so bad)
Surf's up and so am I
(I gotta give you some love)
Surf's up
And so am I

Then I saw you like a summer dream
And you're the answer to every prayer that I've ever said...



Somebody bless all these girls that I never have met
But damn you and curse you
After all that you've done
You're the one girl I'll never forget

Somebody bless all these girls
And everything that they do
But damn me and curse me for still needing you...



I should have known that it was coming to this
But I must have been blind
I bet you've still got a trace of his love in your eyes
And you've still got his eyes on your mind...



It's there in my eyes
And coming straight from my heart
It's running silent and angry and deep

It's there in my eyes
And it's all I can say
Come on and look at me
And read 'em and weep

My faverate lines from meat and jim are ultermuttly the one that seem to sum my life up perfectly:

*'There used to be an easy way of living and there used to be every hope in the world' - Just won't quit,
*'With everything to gain I end up losing it all' -Blind as a bat,
*'I know that i will never be Politically correct and I don't give a damm about my lake of etticett'- Everying louder than every thing else,
*'I never know so many bad times could follow me so mercylessly'- The future ain't what it just to be

Oh dear these all seem to be unhappy lines, Soory for bring everyone down thay just seem to sum up my life.

Also love the following from DIMP:

Don't you worry, baby, everything'll be fine
We got nothing but the best and we got nothing but time
And there'll always be a time when they'll be waiting in line
To be dancing, dancing

and

Girl:
We can rock it really hard or we can roll it really slow
We can lift it really high or we can dip it really low
We can hold it in tight or we can let it all out
Or we can work up a sweat and really stomp it and shout
Let me pull you so close and then we'll break away fast
We'll be the best on the floor we got the cool and the flash
We'll make a dangerous turn but we'll come out of it fine
I know the best of the moves we'll get them right every time


and

And I don't ever want to be rescued, I don't ever want to be saved
I got a feeling that I'm gonna be alive forever
Dancing on the edge of a grave, dancing on the edge of a grave



but a lot of the rest of the song is just silly, but a great rock n roll tune nonetheless.

I think it's meant to be a bit silly- just like his pick up lines:

Boy:
"You've got the kind of lips that do more than drink"

Girl:
"You've got the kind of mind that does less than think..."

Agreed - but that part of Dead Ringer is awesome because it is funny wordplay, great rhyming, cool putdowns etc. DIMP just seems to stray a little far into comic territory for my liking. Just a personal thing though I guess.

I'm personally quite fond of the lyrics of We're Still The Children and Tonight Is What It Means To Be Young.

'Let the revels begin, let the fires be started, we're dancing for the restless and the broken hearted'

'We're still the children we were then...who's going to take us home?'

Love these two <3

Also, the entire 'Say a prayer' section of Braver Than We Are. Truly legendary

From the minute I turned and laid eyes on you
I had no eyes of my own I was blind to the world-
You were to good to be true but you were something to see-
So very young and alone and still I don't believe
The way you turned on me now where's the girl that I knew?
I gave you somewhere to live and then somebody to love
You gave me nothing but trouble- man, I was such a fool

You gave me nothing at all- now let me give it to you
You taught me how to be cruel- now let me try it on you

How do you abuse me - let me count the ways
How many hours in how many days
How does it amuse you - let me count the pain
How many rules breaking how many games

How do you abuse me - let me count the ways
How many hours in how many days
How does it amuse you - let me count the pain
How many rules breaking how many games

You got your ass out of gear and your soul out of whack
Go on and take all your stuff - don't even bother to pack
In every way I want you out of my life -
But I'll kill you if you don't come back
I'll kill you if you don't come back

In the pit of the night you used to pull me so close
And then you'd hold me so tight and in the wink of an eye
You used to give me it all and with a kiss in the darkness
You'd deliver the light

And in the pit of the night I hear you laughing so loud
I know you're laughing at me oh ain't it funny and sad
The way I fell for your lies the way I fell into love
And then begged to be free

You gave me nothing at all - now let me give it to you
You taught me how to be cruel - now let me try it on you

How do you abuse me - let me count the ways
How many hours in how many days
How does it amuse you - let me count the pain
How many rules breaking how many games

You got your ass out of gear and your soul out of whack
Go on and take all your stuff - don't even bother to pack
In every way I want you out of my life -
But I'll kill you if you don't come back
I'll kill you if you don't come back

Somebody bless all the girls in the sand on the beach
They're dreamin' of boys and just out of reach
Bless all the cheerleaders down on the track
They're glistening like diamonds with sweat on their backs

Bless all the girls in gangs on the street
They're looking for danger and they're holding their piece
Bless all the girls staying late after school
They're playing with fire and they're playing it cool

And bless all the shy girls who're learning to dance
They stare in the mirror and they conjure romance
Bless all the girls who are always alone
They kneel down in prayer and they wait up by the phone

Bless all the homecoming queens of the night
They're looking for magic in gymnasium lights
And bless all the girls who know what love is about
They try not to cry and then they try to put out

And bless all the homecoming queens of the night
They're looking for magic in gymnasium lights
And bless all the girls who know what love is about
They try not to cry and then they try to put out

Somebody bless all these girls that I never have met
But damn you and curse you after all that you've done
You're the one girl I'll never forget
You're the one girl I'll never forget

Somebody bless all these girls and everything that they do
But damn me and curse me for still needing you
And I'll kill you if you don't come back
I'll kill you if you don't come back
I'll kill you if you don't come back
I'll kill you if you don't come back

OOOO You got the kind of legs
That do more tan walk
I don't have to listen
To your whimpering talk
Listen you got the kind of eyes
That do more than see
You gotta lot of nerve
Coming on to me
You got the kind of lips
That do more than drink
You got the kind of mind
That does less than think
But since I'm feeling kinda lonely
And my defenses are low
Why don't we give it shot
And get ready to go
I'm looking for anonymous and fleeting satisfaction
And I want to tell my Daddy that I'll be missing in action

I dreamed there was a magic song I played for the queen 'neath the golden throne/My heart flowed through my broken voice to her
The queen did smile and she did cry my fingers bled a thousand lives/A red-teared river flowed our lives between us
Her majesties tears and the pauper's blood an angels breath and the devil's touch/The song of madness madly crying to her
You're a wolf in a lamb's disguise/a cold lover with a warm invite/morning gonna carry us to our grave
Dream a dream in agony/sweetest dream you'll ever see/make my dream reality oh carry me/carry me to my grave/
She placed the blade within the king's throne and in mine did i place my own/with the lamb's blood we purchased our sin's pardon
The sky ripped open and the shadows bled the moon blew out and the stars burned red/the song of madness madly crying to her
On a night such as this/an angel's lips and the devil's kiss/morning gonna carry me to my grave
Dream a dream in agony/the sweetest dream you'll ever see/make my dream reality/carry me/carry me to my grave/oh carry me/carry me to my grave/
The song of madness madly crying to her
The song of madness shot like lightning through us
The song of madness madly crying to he
Madness
Madness
Madness
My god my queen just lie to me/make me believe that i am king/and by morning/
You're a wolf in a lamb's disguise/a cold lover with a warm invite/morning gonna carry us to our grave
Dream a dream in agony/sweetest dream you'll ever see/make my dream reality and carry me/oh carry me/carry me to my grave/carry me to my grave/carry me/carry me to my grave/


One of the best songs ever.
