Its down to this
Ive got to make this life make sense
Can anyone do what Ive done
I missed life
I missed the colours of the world
Can anyone go where I amcause now again Ive found myself
So far down, away from the sun
That shines into the darkest place
Im so far down, away from the sun again
Away from the sun againIm over this
Im tired of living in the dark
Can anyone see me down here
The feelings gone
Theres nothing left to lift me up
Back into the world Ive knowncause now again Ive found myself
So far down, away from the sun
That shines into the darkest place
Im so far down, away from the sun
That shines the life away from me
To find my way back into the arms
That care about the ones like me
Im so far down, away from the sun againIts down to this
Ive got to make this life make sense
And now I cant do what Ive doneAnd now again Ive found myself
So far down, away from the sun
That shines the life away from mecause now again Ive found myself
So far down, away from the sun
That shines into the darkest place
Im so far down, away from the sun
That shines the life away from me
To find my way back into the arms
That care about the ones like me
Im so far down, away from the sun again:(

Midnight our sons and daughters
Cut down and taken from us
Hear their heartbeat
We hear their heartbeat
In the wind we hear their laughter
In the rain we see their tears
Hear their heartbeat
We hear their heartbeatNight hangs like a prisoner
Stretched over black and blue
Hear their heartbeats
We hear their heartbeats
In the trees our sons stand naked
Through the walls our daughters cry
See their tears in the rainfallU2

It was Christmas Eve babe
In the drunk tank
An old man said to me
“Won’t see another one..”
And then he sang a song
“The Rare Old Mountain Dew”
I turned my face away
And dreamed about youGot on a lucky one
Came in eighteen to one
I’ve got a feeling
This year’s for me and you
So Happy Christmas
I love you baby
I can see a better time
When all our dreams come true— They got cars big as bars
They got Rivers of gold
But the wind goes right through you
It’s no place for the old
When you first took my hand on a cold Christmas Eve
You told me that Broadway was waiting for me
You were handsome —
You were pretty
Queen of New York City
When the band finished playing
They howled out for more
Sinatra was swinging
All the drunks they were singing
We kissed on the corner
Then danced through the nightThe boys of the NYPD choir were singing “Galway Bay”
And the bells were ringing out for Christmas day— You’re a bum
You’re a punk —
You’re an old slut on junk
Lying there almost dead
On a drip in that bed
–You scumbag
You maggot
You cheap lousy faggot
Happy Christmas your ar.se
I pray God it’s our last —The boys from the NYPD choir still singing “Galway Bay”
And the bells were ringing out for Christmas DayI could’ve been someone
— Well so could anyone
You took my dreams from me
When I first found you —
I kept them with me babe
I put them with my own
Can’t make it all alone
I’ve built my dreams around youThe boys of the NYPD choir still singing “Galway Bay”
And the bells were ringing out for Christmas DayThe Pogues with Kirsty MacColl
24 December, 2006 at 1:45 am #139337O Holy night, The stars are brightly shining,
It is the night of our dear Saviour’s birth.
Long lay the world in sin and error pining.
Till He appeared and the Soul felt its worth.
A thrill of hope the weary world rejoices,
For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn.
Fall on your knees! Oh hear the angel voices!
Oh night divine, oh night when Christ was born;
O night, O holy night, O night divine!
O night, O holy night, O night divine!Led by the light of faith serenely beaming,
With glowing hearts by His cradle we stand.
O’er the world a star is sweetly gleaming,
Now come the wisemen from out of the Orient land.
The King of kings lays thus in lowly manger;
In all our trials born to be our friends.
He knows our need, our weakness is no stranger,
Behold your King! Before him lowly bend!
Behold your King! Before him lowly bend!Truly He taught us to love one another,
His law is love and His gospel is peace.
Chains He shall break, for the slave is our brother.
And in His name all oppression shall cease.
Sweet hymns of joy in grateful chorus raise we,
With all our hearts we praise His holy name.
Christ is the Lord! Then ever, ever praise we,
His power and glory ever more proclaim!
His power and glory ever more proclaim!Nollaig Shona
Merry Christmas from Ireland

Thinking of you24 December, 2006 at 11:27 pm #139338Miss You Most (At Christmas Time)
Written by M. Carey and W. AfanasieffThe fire is burning
The room’s all a glow
Outside the December wind blows
Away in the distance the carolers sing in the snow
Everybody’s laughing
The world is celebrating
And everyones so happy
Except for me tonightBecause I miss you
Most at Christmas time
And I can’t get you
Get you off my mind
Every other season comes along
And I’m all right
But then I miss you, most at Christmas timeI gaze out the window
This cold winter’s night
At all of the twinkling lights
Alone in the darkness
Remembering when you were mine
Everybody’s smiling
The whole world is rejoicing
And everyone’s embracing
Except for you and IBaby I miss you
Most at Christmas time
And I can’t get you
Get you off my mind
Every other season comes along
And I’m all right
But then I miss you, most at Christmas timeIn the springtime those memories start to fade
With the April rain
Through the summer days
Till autumn’s leaves are gone
I get by without you
Till the snow begins to fallAnd then I miss you
Most at Christmas time
And I can’t get you
Get you off my mind
Every other season comes along
And I’m all right
But then I miss you, most at Christmas time25 December, 2006 at 5:14 am #139339Take away the sensation inside
Bitter sweet migraine in my head
Its like a throbbing tooth ache of the mind
I can’t take this feeling anymoreDrain the pressure from the swelling,
The sensations overwhelming,
Give me a kiss goodnight and everything will be alright
Tell me that I won’t feel a thing
So give me NovacaineOut of body and out of mind
Kiss the demons out of my dreams
I get the funny feeling, that’s alright
Jimmy says it’s better than air,
I’ll tell you whyDrain the pressure from the swelling,
The sensations overwhelming,
Give me a kiss goodnight and everything will be alright,
Tell me that I won’t feel a thing,
So give me NovacaineOh Novacaine
Drain the pressure from the swelling,
The sensations overwhelming
Give me a kiss goodnight and everything will be alright,
Tell me Jimmy I won’t feel a thing,
So give me Novacaine30 December, 2006 at 6:00 am #139340Yet another hymn to “chat”…
World In My Eyes
Let me take you on a trip
Around the world and back
And you won’t have to move
You just sit stillNow let your mind do the walking
And let my body do the talking
Let me show you the world in my eyesI’ll take you to the highest mountain
To the depths of the deepest sea
And we won’t need a map believe meNow let my body do the moving
And let my hands do the soothing
Let me show you the world in my eyesThat’s all there is
Nothing more than you can feel now
That’s all there isLet me put you on a ship
On a long long trip
Your lips close to my lipsAll the islands in the ocean
All the heaven’s in their motion
Let me show you the world in my eyesThat’s all there is
Nothing more than you can touch now
That’s all there isLet me show you the world in my eyes..

30 December, 2006 at 6:25 pm #139341Dead Man Walkin’
There’s a pale horse comin’
And I’m gonna ride it
I’ll rise in the morning
My fate decided
I’m a dead man walkin’
I’m a dead man walkin’In the St. James Parish
I was born and Christened
Now I’ve got my story
Mister ain’t no need for you to listen
It’s just a dead man talkin’Once I had a job I had a girl
But between our dreams and actions
Lies this worldIn the deep forest
Their blood and tears rushed over me
All I could feel was the drugs and the shotgun
And my fear up inside of me
Like a dead man talkin’‘Neath a summer sky my eyes went black
Sister I won’t ask for forgiveness
My sins are all I haveNow the clouds above my prison
Move slowly across the sky
There’s a new day comin’
And my dreams are full tonightBruce Springsteen
