    I was listening to Slipknot earlier (and now I’m posting cos I’m unashamedly bored) and heard something that reminded me of this site. From ‘Duality’:

    I’ve gotta say what I’ve gotta say
    And then I swear I’ll go away
    But I can’t promise you’ll enjoy the noise
    I guess I’ll save the best for last
    My future seems like one big past
    You’re left with me cos you left me no choice

    I push my fingers into my eyes
    It’s the only thing that slowly stops the ache
    But it’s made of all the things I have to take
    Jesus, it never ends, it works it’s way inside
    If the pain goes on
    I’m not going to make it

    Can’t think why it reminded me, but it did.

    It’s because the first verse is written in the form of a rhyming couplet, whereas in the second verse, the meter changes and the writer has given up the attempt to write rhyming prose.

    This is of course an allegory for JustChat, which is probably why you were reminded.

    Let Me Take You There

    I know a place that we can go to
    a place where no one knows you
    They won’t know who we are

    I know a place that we can run to
    and do those things we want to
    they won’t know who we are

    Let me take you there
    I wanna take you there

    I know a place that we’re forgotten
    a place we won’t get caught in
    they won’t know who we are

    I know a place where we can hide out
    and turn our hearts inside out
    they won’t know who we are

    I know a place we’ll be together
    and stay this young forever
    they won’t know who we are

    We can get away
    to a better place
    if you let me take you there
    we can go right now
    cause every second counts
    girl just let me take you there
    take you there

    Plain White T’s

    I’m Going Slightly Mad lyrics

    When the outside temperature rises
    And the meaning is oh so clear
    One thousand and one yellow daffodils
    Begin to dance in front of you – oh dear
    Are they trying to tell you something You’re missing that one final screw
    You’re simply not in the pink my dear
    To be honest you haven’t got a clue

    I’m going slightly mad
    I’m going slightly mad
    It finally happened – happened
    It finally happened – ooh oh
    It finally happened – I’m slightly man
    Oh dear
    I’m one card short of a full deck
    I’m not quite the shilling
    One wave short of a shipwreck
    I’m not my usual top billing
    I’m coming down with a fever
    I’m really out to sea
    This kettle is boiling over
    I think I’m a banana tree

    Oh dear
    I’m going slightly mad
    I’m going slightly mad
    It finally happened – happened
    It finally happened – uh huh
    It finally happened – I’m slightly mad – oh dear
    I’m knitting with only one needle
    Unraveling fast its true
    I’m driving only three wheels these days
    But my dear how about you
    I’m going slightly mad
    I’m going slightly mad
    It finally happened It finally happened – oh yes
    It finally happened
    I’m slightly mad Just very slightly mad
    And there you have it

    That’s what I was thinking, but my mind had started to shutdown so I just couldn’t find the words :^o

    Welcome to the jungle
    We got fun ‘n’ games
    We got everything you want
    Honey we know the names
    We are the people that can find
    Whatever you may need
    If you got the money honey
    We got your disease

    They’re coming to take me away, ha-haaa.
    They’re coming to take me away, ho-ho, hee-hee, ha-haaa.
    To the funny farm, where life is beautiful all the time and I’ll be happy
    to see those nice young men in their clean white coats and they’re coming
    to take me away, ha-haaa!!!
    To the happy home, with trees and flowers and chirping birds and basket
    weavers who sit and smile and twiddle their thumbs and toes and they’re
    coming to take me away, ha-haa!!!
    To the funny farm, where life is beautiful all the time… (fade out)
