Jesus, help me find my proper place
Jesus, help me find my proper place
Help me in my weakness
‘Cos I’m falling out of grace

Velvet Underground23 August, 2008 at 11:49 pm #139843When youre down and troubled
And you need a helping hand
And nothing, whoa nothing is going right.
Close your eyes and think of me
And soon I will be there
To brighten up even your darkest nights.You just call out my name,
And you know whereever I am
Ill come running, oh yeah baby
To see you again.
Winter, spring, summer, or fall,
All you have to do is call
And Ill be there, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Youve got a friend.If the sky above you
Should turn dark and full of clouds
And that old north wind should begin to blow
Keep your head together and call my name out loud
And soon I will be knocking upon your door.
You just call out my name and you know where ever I am
Ill come running to see you again.
Winter, spring, summer or fall
All you got to do is call
And Ill be there, yeah, yeah, yeah.Hey, aint it good to know that youve got a friend?
People can be so cold.
Theyll hurt you and desert you.
Well theyll take your soul if you let them.
Oh yeah, but dont you let them.You just call out my name and you know wherever I am
Ill come running to see you again.
Oh babe, dont you know that,
Winter spring summer or fall,
Hey now, all youve got to do is call.
Lord, Ill be there, yes I will.
Youve got a friend.
Youve got a friend.
Aint it good to know youve got a friend.
Aint it good to know youve got a friend.
Youve got a friend.24 August, 2008 at 1:10 pm #139844In the white room with black curtains near the station.
Blackroof country, no gold pavements, tired starlings.
Silver horses ran down moonbeams in your dark eyes.
Dawnlight smiles on you leaving, my contentment.Ill wait in this place where the sun never shines;
Wait in this place where the shadows run from themselves.You said no strings could secure you at the station.
Platform ticket, restless diesels, goodbye windows.
I walked into such a sad time at the station.
As I walked out, felt my own need just beginning.Ill wait in the queue when the trains come back;
Lie with you where the shadows run from themselves.At the party she was kindness in the hard crowd.
Consolation for the old wound now forgotten.
Yellow tigers crouched in jungles in her dark eyes.
Shes just dressing, goodbye windows, tired starlings.Ill sleep in this place with the lonely crowd;
Lie in the dark where the shadows run from themselves.24 August, 2008 at 8:06 pm #139845If blood will flow when fresh and steel are one
Drying in the colour of the evening sun
Tomorrows rain will wash the stains away
But something in our minds will always stay
Perhaps this final act was meant
To clinch a lifetimes argument
That nothing comes from violence and nothing ever could
For all those born beneath an angry star
Lest we forget how fragile we areOn and on the rain will fall
Like tears from a star like tears from a star
On and on the rain will say
How fragile we are how fragile we areOn and on the rain will fall
Like tears from a star like tears from a star
On and on the rain will say
How fragile we are how fragile we are
How fragile we are how fragile we areSTING
26 August, 2008 at 8:17 pm #139846Do I question my loyalties?
Do I try to work it out?Well you’re the part of my memories
That I never wanna live without
So long I’ve been gone
So many things have changed
But I know where I belong and
I know when I reach that placeOh
I know when I reach that place
Yeah yeah yeah yeahI see the rain come down while the sun is shining
I see them dance into the nightI see the rain come down while the sun is shining
Stand at the base of your mountain high
Dance into the nightThe skank beat rockin� in my life (x6)
The skank be the rock in my life
Ooh yeah
The skank be the rock in my life
I keep on telling youFire
Starts in my heart when I reach that place
Home again where I belongFire
Starts in my heart when I reach that place
Have I been away too long?Fire
Starts in my heart when I reach that place
Home again where I belongFire
Starts in my heart when I reach that place
Have I been away too long?
Have I been away too long?26 August, 2008 at 10:10 pm #139847No more blame I am destined to keep you sane
Gotta rescue the flame
Gotta rescue the flame in your heartNo more blood, I will be there for you my love
I will stand by your side
The world has forsaken my girlI should have seen it would be this way
I should have known from the start what she’s up to
When you have loved and you’ve lost someone
You know what it feels like to loseShe’s fading away
Away from this world
Drifting like a feather
She’s not like the other girls
She lives in the clouds
She talks to the birds
Hopeless little one
She’s not like the other girls I knowNo more shame, she has felt too much pain, in her life
In her mind she’s repeating the words
All the love you put out will return to you26 August, 2008 at 10:16 pm #139848Don’t look at me that way
I know what you’re gonna say
It’s on your faceThe scars went up in flames
While we waited for the rain
That never cameThey tried to follow you
Yeah I always wanted to
Through black and blueBut how can I explain
When you’re taking all the blame
Until the endThey’ve left you out on your own
And they’ve broken all of your bones
And I’m turning
And I’m walking awayDon’t look at me that way
I heard what you had to say
It’s not your placeThe feelings are replaced
And the words have all decayed
And it’s another day
and it’s another day
And it’s another dayThey’ve left you out on your own
And they’ve broken all of your bones
And they’re turning
And they’re walking away
And they’re turning
And they’re walking away30 August, 2008 at 12:04 am #139849Looking out the door I see the rain fall upon the funeral mourners
Parading in a wake of sad relations as their shoes fill up with water
And maybe Im too young to keep good love from going wrong
But tonight youre on my mind so you never knowWhen Im broken down and hungry for your love with no way to feed it
Where are you tonight, child you know how much I need it
Too young to hold on and too old to just break free and runSometimes a man gets carried away, when he feels like he should be having his fun
And much too blind to see the damage hes done
Sometimes a man must awake to find that really, he has no-oneSo Ill wait for you… and Ill burn
Will I ever see your sweet return
Oh will I ever learnOh lover, you shouldve come over
cause its not too lateLonely is the room, the bed is made, the open window lets the rain in
Burning in the corner is the only one who dreams he had you with him
My body turns and yearns for a sleep that will never comeIts never over, my kingdom for a kiss upon her shoulder
Its never over, all my riches for her smiles when I slept so soft against her
Its never over, all my blood for the sweetness of her laughter
Its never over, shes the tear that hangs inside my soul foreverWell maybe Im just too young
To keep good love from going wrongOh… lover, you shouldve come over
cause its not too lateWell I feel too young to hold on
And Im much too old to break free and run
Too deaf, dumb, and blind to see the damage Ive done
Sweet lover, you shouldve come over
Oh, love well Im waiting for youLover, you shouldve come over
cause its not too late30 August, 2008 at 12:12 am #139850At last I am born
Historians note
I am finally born
I once used to chase affection withdrawn
But now I just sit back and yawn
Because I am born, born, born
Look at me now
From difficult child to spectral hand to Claude Brasseur-oh-blah blah blah
At last I am born
Vulgarians know
I am finally born
I once thought that time accentuates despair
But now I don’t actually care
Because I am born, born, born
Look at me now
From difficult child to spectral hand to Claude Brasseur-oh-blah blah blah
At last I am born
At last I am born
Leaving the one true free life born
I once thought I had numerous reasons to cry
And I did, but I don’t anymore
Because I am born, born, born
At last I am born
At last I am born
It took me a long, long time
But now I am born
I once was a mess of guilt because of the flesh
It’s remarkable what you can learn
Once you are born, born, born
Born, born, born
Born, born, born30 August, 2008 at 12:22 am #139851Blurry lyrics
Everything’s so blurry
and everyone’s so fake
and everybody’s empty
and everything is so messed up
pre-occupied without you
I cannot live at all
My whole world surrounds you
I stumble then I crawlYou could be my someone
you could be my scene
you know that i’ll protect you
from all of the obscene
I wonder what you’re doing
imagine where you are
there’s oceans in between us
but that’s not very farCan you take it all away
can you take it all away
well ya shoved it in my face
this pain you gave to me
Can you take it all away
can you take it all away
well ya shoved it my faceEveryone is changing
there’s noone left that’s real
to make up your own ending
and let me know just how you feel
cause I am lost without you
I cannot live at all
my whole world surrounds you
I stumble then I crawlYou could be my someone
you could be my scene
you know that i will save you
from all of the unclean
I wonder what you’re doing
I wonder where you are
There’s oceans in between us
but that’s not very far[Chorus]
Nobody told me what you thought
nobody told me what to say
everyone showed you where to turn
told you when to runaway
nobody told you where to hide
nobody told you what to say
everyone showed you where to turn
showed you when to runaway[Chorus]
This pain you gave to me
You take it all
You take it all away…
This pain you gave to me
You take it all away
This pain you gave to me
Take it all away
This pain you gave to me -
