Ignition Yellow

Made by

balsamandash

Theme: Music
1. I've reclaimed the use of my imagination
2. They think I'm beautiful for all my big mistakes
3. I don't think straight with nothing to prove
4. At least I'm not as sad as I used to be
5. And you wanted better love, well, it's sleeping in your bedroom
6. One of us sings, and one of us drinks, and one of us has nothing at all
7. Slow down, we've got time left to be lazy
8. And the truth is that I feel better because I've forgiven everyone
9. I'll find somebody who will stitch me up, though I've never been
better then when falling apart
10. There are some nights I wait for someone to save us
11. The most amazing things can come from some terrible nights
12. I just thought maybe we could find new ways to fall apart
13. I am not the ghost you are to me
14. There's a fire in sky, some snow on the ground, not quite enough
cigarettes to calm me down
15. Who we used to be before we became antiques
16. We’ll rise up ourselves, thanks for nothing at all
17. And I know I could be more clever, and I know I could be more strong
18. There's such a fine line between the things you want and the
things that you need
19. I like to think I have everything I want from this life
20. We used to be something, I can't remember just what

Visceral Red

Made by

starphotographs

Theme: Music
1. Out come the knives.
2. I wasn't born to be some saint.
3. A job that hates you, too.
4. My bright peculiar smile, I want to see your hair hanging from the trees.
5. To give myself away in small, bloody strips.
6. "And oh, the city's too big," you say as if it's all a part of you.
7. We do what we do to fill the empty space.
8. The abyss is just a fraction above.
9. I had built a monster worse than me, and far worse than you.
10. No one really knows anyone.
11. Did you think I'm bare and distant? It's good to know you feel the same.
12. The pen is in my hand, the scissors on the bed for you.
13. I smell it on my sheets for days, I smell it in my room.
14. Do you think it's time for you to live frantically?
15. Make no mistake, I just couldn't stop the hands.

Rusted Gears

Made by

Theme: Music
1. Anything can happen, anything can go wrong.
2. It pays to be informed!
3. I wish to use my body as a torch, I wish to use my body as a guide.
4. Why should we communicate sans technology?
5. "Look at me, lucky me: Mister Invincible."
6. Slowly but surely, he screams.
7. And that silence, it suits you.
8. Undetected by the noisy wood floor.
9. Throw your body on the apparatus!
10. Can I pour you another drink, lover?
11. Like atom bombs, if you will.
12. Did you really think you were quicker than me? Did you really think you were better than me?
13. Goddamn these hands, I let them touch you.
14. If the big one hits... I'll just meet you there.
15. Young bodies always heal quickly.

Blood and Conduction

Made by starphotographs

Theme: Music

We're animated meat, accepting complete the infidelity of the body.
I'm drawing a bloodbath, with or without you!
So would you sleep where I sleep? Here with the bed bugs and bad beliefs.
We're all tubes with holes at the endings.
I'll have you pictured in my head: all of you butchered in your beds.
He wants to be alone, but he can't be lonely.
Forever, we're kicked up the ass by the future.
And I sleep in my clothes, because nobody knows when the shit goes down.
...But I am horrified that you will say it's meaningless. A cosmic joke on me.
Our lumbering bodies that we have to feed, put to bed, take to the bathroom.
Good luck, godspeed, goddamn you all!
I'm part of the sun, I married the moon, my brother the comet.
Will you bleed and dress me where I'm found?
I want to be able to say, in a disassociated way: "what the fuck" and "whatever."
To whistle past the graveyard.

Wet Concrete

Made by

Theme: Music
1. Come hell or high water, this sick world will know I was here!
2. The kids will grow up to be assholes.
3. I don't look both ways before I cross the street, or my heart, or my fingers.
4. Sharpen the axe, stomp the flames out on backs, I will be who you want me to be!
5. The most important part of your body is the one that currently hurts.
6. Life is long when you're lonely.
7. You don't want your messes cleaned; you don't want your bodies fixed.
8. The beauty is unbearable, we want to stretch it all out.
9. So if he gets chopped up to bits, it must have been an accident.
10. Let's cast a mirror right back at fear!
11. There's a tombstone that waits of your very own.
12. And it's the last thing you should ever do... But if you look at the abyss, it will look right back at you.
13. So I will saunter down this hallway dark; I'm alive, I'm alive, I'm alive, god willing, I'm alive!
14. This is what you are. You are what you are.
15. The horror is in our hands, the hands that hold our hearts down.

Avocado

Made by shipwreck_light

Theme: Music

The full moon is calling / The fever is high / And the wicked wind whispers / And moans
- The Eagles, One Of These Nights

And it's whispered that soon, if we all call the tune / Then the piper will lead us to reason / And a new day will dawn for those who stand long / And the forests will echo with laughter
- Led Zeppelin, Stairway to Heaven

All the people we used to know / They're an illusion to me now / Some are mathematicians / Some are carpenter's wives / Don't know how it all got started
- Bob Dylan, Tangled Up In Blue

There's room at the top they are telling you still / But first you must learn how to smile as you kill / If you want to be like the folks on the hill
- John Lennon, Working Class Hero

Heard the singers playin', how we cheered for more / The crowd had rushed together tryin' to keep warm / Still the rain kept pourin', fallin' on my ears / And I wonder, still I wonder who'll stop the rain
- Creedence Clearwater Revival, Who'll Stop The Rain

The exodus is here / The happy ones are near / Let's get together / Before we get much older
- The Who, Baba O'Riley

Keep me in a daydream / keep me goin' strong / You don't wanna save me / sad is my song
- Stevie Wonder, Superstition

But oh how it feels so real / Lying here with no one near / Only you and you can hear me / When I say softly, slowly
- Elton John, Tiny Dancer

What'll you do when you get lonely / And nobody's waiting by your side? / You've been running and hiding much too long / You know it's just your foolish pride
- Derek and the Dominos, Layla

Now she walks / through her sunken dream / To the seat with the clearest view / And she's hooked to the silver screen / But the film is a saddening bore / For she's lived it ten times or more / She could spit in the eyes of fools
- David Bowie, Life On Mars

Then the door was open and the wind appeared / The candles blew then disappeared The curtains flew then he appeared / saying don't be afraid / Come on baby... and she had no fear
- Blue Oyster Cult, (Don't Fear) The Reaper

Seeing her skin feeling silky smooth / Colour of cafe au lait / Made the savage beast inside / Roaring till it cried More, More, More / Now he's at home doing 9 to 5 / Living his brave life of lies
- Patti LaBelle, Lady Marmalade

This city desert makes you feel so cold / It's got so many people but it's got no soul / And it's taken you so long to find out you were wrong / When you thought it held everything
- Gerry Rafferty, Baker Street

Now here I go again, I see the crystal visions / I keep my visions to myself / It's only me / Who wants to wrap around your dreams and... / Have you any dreams you'd like to sell?
- Fleetwood Mac, Dreams

Too hot, too greedy / How could you leave me / When I needed to possess you? / I hated you. I loved you, too.
- Kate Bush, Wuthering Heights

There is no pain, you are receding / A distant ship smoke on the horizon / You are only coming through in waves / Your lips move but I can't hear what you're saying
- Pink Floyd, Comfortably Numb

Love is an angel disguised as lust / Here in our bed until the morning comes / Come on now try and understand / The way I feel under your command
- Pattie Smith, Because the Night

But there are times that you feel you're part of the scenery / All the greenery is comin' down, boy / And then your wife seems to think you're part of the / furniture oh, it's peculiar, she used to be so nice
- Supertramp, Take The Long Way Home

But what a fool believes he sees / No wise man has the power to reason away/ What seems to be / Is always better than nothing
- The Doobie Brothers, What A Fool Believes

You see I've been through the desert on a horse with no name / It felt good to be out of the rain / In the desert you can remember your name / 'Cause there ain't no one for to give you no pain
- America, Horse With No Name

8. I don't need to be good, I'm just trying to stay blameless
9. We ain't got much, but we've got history

Theme: Music
1. My old man is a tough man but he's got a soul as sweet as blood red jam and he shows me he knows me, every inch of my tar black soul.
2. I pledge allegiance to my dad for teaching me everything he knows.
3. No one compares to you. I'm scared that you won't be waiting on the other side.
4. We don’t need nobody 'cause we got each other, or at least I pretend.
5. I'm on the warpath 'cause I love you just a little too much.
6. You got the world, but baby, at what price?
7. The road is long, we carry on, try to have fun in the meantime.
8. Will you still love me when I'm no longer young and beautiful? Will you still love me when I got nothing but my aching soul?
9. I will love you 'til the end of time; I would wait a million years. Promise you'll remember that you're mine.
10. Can you picture it, babe, the life we could have lived?
11. They say that the world was built for two, only worth living if somebody is loving you.
12. What's your name, little buttercup? That's for me to know and you to make up.
13. I was born bad, but then I met you. You made me nice for a while, but my dark side's true.
14. Honey, I'm on fire, I feel it everywhere; nothing scares me anymore.

Theme: Music
1. We walk in the world of safe people and at night we walk into our houses and burn.
2. Oh, my enemy, beautiful enemy.
3. There's the weak and the strong and the many stars that guide us; we have some of them inside us.
4. It wasn't worth the pain my death would cost so I was not lost or found.
5. And if we want a god we had to follow, follow him down.
6. Well I love the way the world is your garden and you plant your seeds and you let them grow.
7. So if you want to see the world with me let's go.
8. I was out here listening all the time.
9. Here's hoping that the days ahead won't be as bitter as the ones behind you.
10. I was running out of time and one liners.
11. I have lost to February.
12. God looks like a guidance counselor.
13. I'm just trying to put the atom back together.
14. This is not the house that pain built.
15. I am the one who will remember everything.

Bullet the Blue Sky

Made by

finch

Theme: Music
1. Let it go and so to fade away.
2. If you want to kiss the sky, better learn how to kneel.
3. Just the bang and the clatter as an angel runs to ground.
4. You've got to cry without weeping, talk without speaking, scream without raising your voice.
5. Nothing changes on New Year's Day.
6. Don't think, don't worry, everything's just fine.
7. Every artist is a cannibal, every poet is a thief.
8. And I must be an acrobat to talk like this and act like that.
9. Sleep comes like a drug in God’s country.
10. I believe in the kingdom come.
11. And you become a monster so the monster will not break you.
12. The heart is a bloom, it shoots up through the stony ground.
13. I listen through your ears, and through your eyes I can see.
14. You’re packing a suitcase for a place that none of us has been.
15. I want to tear down the walls that hold me inside.
16. And what you leave behind you don't miss anyway.
17. Believing in yourself almost as much as you doubt.
18. What happened to the beauty I had inside of me?
19. Sunrise like a nosebleed, your head hurts and you can't breathe.
20. Midnight is where the day begins.

Theme: Music
1. She's addicted to nicotine patches, she's afraid of the light in the dark
2. Every finger in the room is pointing at me
3. Castles are burning in my heart
4. But what if I'm a mermaid
5. Little fascist panties
6. Sleeping beauty trips me with a frown
7. I'm still the angel to a girl who hates to sin
8. You say we'll take a holiday but we never can agree on where to go
9. I can scream as loud as your last one but I can't claim innocence
10. I walked into your dream and now I've forgotten how to dream my own dream
11. Maybe she's just pieces of me you've never seen
12. And I sang "holy holy" as he buttoned down his pants
13. We danced in graveyards with vampires until dawn
14. They say you were something in those formative years
15. Will you even tell her if you decide to make the sky fall
16. You don't need my voice girl you have your own
17. Hey they found a body not sure it was his but they're using his name
18. Even the sun's got a price on it
19. If I did it fast you know that's an act of kindness
20. Seems we got a cheaper feel now
21. I have a hiding place when spring marches in
22. We'll see how brave you are
23. She never let on how insane it was in that tiny kinda scary house
24. You said we were the real thing
25. Don't judge me so harsh little girl

Theme: Music
1. There are power lines in our bloodlines
2. The duke and the duchess' luscious young girls
3. Meet me on my vast veranda
4. Would I could afford to buy my love a fine robe
5. With the wave of an arm you were there and gone
6. America can't say no
7. Here in our hollow we fuse like a family
8. All cheap and debonair
9. There's a low moon caught in your tangles
10. All the stars came crashing 'round
11. A rain cloud, a crane on the wing
12. The rivers roll down to a soundless sea
13. Green your grave will rise
14. I will come on the breath of the wind
15. A wicked wind will blow your ribbons from your curls
16. Summer arrives with a length of light
17. We'll fill our mouths with cinnamon
18. Tell your daughters do not walk the streets alone tonight
19. The infernal rattling of the rain still remains
20. This is the story of the boys who loved you

4. "I have no more than I did before, but now I've got all that I need, for I love you and I know you love me."
5. "You've been awful careful about the friends you choose, but you won't find my name in your book of Who's Whos."

9. "I'm gonna catch me the fastest train, I'm gonna make me a brand new start."
10. "Mary, I love you! Sandra, I love you! ... Sandra loves Mary!"
11. "All I can hear are those words that never were true, spoken to help nobody but you - words with lies inside, but small enough to hide till your plan was through."
12. "After all was said and done they never understood / How we always made it; we knew we always would / 'Cause it's just you and I and promises not broken..."

16. "Oh yeah, she's raised you right; you only know the things she wants you to know."
17. "Now you're walking 'round like you're front-page news!"
18. "My girl used to keep me so contented, but I can teach a dog to do that."

24. "I'm soakin' wet without a boat and I can't swim a single note."
25. "I can't believe they drink this stuff in town!"
26. "In this generation, we will make the world shine!"
27. "Just movin' slow and floatin' free, there's a river swingin' under me..."
28. "I know that Saturday's got what it takes, babe, I can tell by the way she looks at me."
29. "Don't sit in your lonely room just staring back in silent gloom; that's not where you belong."
30. "When everything is going my way, she wants to be close at hand; she moves some other go-way when things don't go the way she planned."

1. She said, I know what it's like to be dead.
2. I get high with a little help from my friends.
3. The sun is up, the sky is blue, it's beautiful, and so are you.
4. The way things are going they're going to crucify me
5. We would be warm below the storm in our little hideaway beneath the waves
6. I look at you all see the love there that's sleeping while my guitar gently weeps
7. And when the broken hearted people living in the world agree / There will be an answer, let it be
8. Out of college, money spent, see no future, pay no rent. All the money's gone, nowhere to go.
9. He's a real nowhere man, sitting in his nowhere land, making all his nowhere plans for nobody.
10. Sunday morning creeping like a nun.
11. We want to change the world, but when you talk about destruction, don't you know that you can count me out.
12. Thoughts meander like a restless wind inside a letter box, they tumble blindly as they make their way across the universe.
13. Picture yourself in a boat on a river with tangerine trees and marmalade skies. Somebody calls you, you answer quite slowly. A girl with kaleidoscope eyes.
14. She's well acquainted with the touch of the velvet hand like a lizard on a window pane.
15. Blackbird singing in the dead of night, take these broken wings and learn to fly.
16. Love is old, love is new, love is all, love is you.
17. The long and winding road that leads to your door will never disappear
18. Day after day alone on the hill, The man with the foolish grin is keeping perfectly still
19. Doing the garden, digging the weeds, who could ask for more?
20. Take a sad song and make it better

from the music of The Beatles
