I'm sailing away,
Set an open course for the virgin sea,
Cause I've got to be free,

And I'll try, Oh Lord I'll try, to carry on Mk 1:17

And scream it Matt. 26:48, 49

I don't know what the world may need,
and I never grasped your complexities.
I'd be happy just to get your attention.
And, I don't know what the world may want,
but your long, sweet body lying next
to mine could certainly raise my spirits.

Cause what the world needs now
is a new Frank Sinatra
...Cause what the world needs now
is another folk singer

All I can say is that my life is pretty plain
I like watchin' the puddles gather rain
And all I can do is just pour some tea for two
and speak my point of view
But it's not sane, It's not sane

I'll always be there when you wake
Ya know I'd like to keep my cheeks dry today
So stay with me and I'll have it made 2 Co 1:12

Can we forget about the things I said
When I was drunk
I didn't mean to call you that

Came in through the window last night
and your gone
Gone

I am still dreamin' of your face
Hungry and hollow for all the things you took away
I don't wanna be your good time
I don't wanna be your fallback crutch anymore
Walk right out into a brand new day
Insane and risin' in my own weird way
I don't wanna be the bad guy
I don't wanna do your sleepwalk dance anymore
I just wanna feel some sunshine
I just wanna find some place to be alone

We can live beside the ocean
Leave the fire behind
Swim out past the breakers
Watch the world die Eccl 7:29

You’d be in Paris getting … too
Ball so hard, let’s get faded, Le Meurice for like 6 days

Live a life less ordinary
Live a life extraordinary with me
Live a life less sedentary
Live a life evolutionary with me
Well I hate to be a bother,
But it's you and there's no other, I do believe
You can call me naive but...
I know me very well (at least as far as I can tell)
And I know what I need

The night you came into my life
Well it took the bones of me, took the bones of me
You blew away my storm and strife
And shook the bones of me, shook the bones of me
By the way, I do know why you stayed away...
I will keep tongue-tied next time Ge 2:24

Dave Matthews Sued For Dumping On Chicago: Claim band bus discharged human waste into river, onto tourists

Eat drink and be merry for tomorrow we die

Tripping Billies - Dave Matthews Band

Then I commended mirth, because a man hath no better thing under the sun, than to eat, and to drink, and to be merry: for that shall abide with him of his labour the days of his life, which God giveth him under the sun [Eccl. 8:15].

"“Eat, … drink, and … be merry”—he concludes that the best thing to do is to enjoy life and to enjoy the labor “which God giveth him under the sun.” That is the most empty philosophy of life that anyone can have." McGee, J. Vernon: Thru the Bible Commentary. electronic ed. Nashville : Thomas Nelson, 1997, c1981, S. 3:127

 

"I'm fairly certain that Dave Matthews himself is not in charge of emptying the waste tanks on the tour bus."

 

Eew!

 

 

 

Eye on the the TV
'Cause tragedy thrills me
Whatever flavor it happens to be, like...
"Killed by the husband"
"Drowned by the ocean"
"Shot by his own son"

That's my kind of story
It's no fun 'til someone dies Ps. 74:20

Eew!


I know what you're doing
I see it all too clear
I only taste the saline
When I kiss away your tears

You really had me going
Wishing on a star
The black holes that surround you
Are heavier by far

I believed in your confusion
So completely torn
Must have been that yesterday
Was the day that I was born
Not much to examine :Sherlock:
Nothing left to hide
You really can’t be serious
If you have to ask me why
I say goodbye Ga 5:9

Barely Breathing - Duncan Sheik

Don't Think Twice, It's All Right - Bob Dylan

A little light looks through her bedroom window
She dances and I dream, she's not so far as she seems
Brighter meadows, melting sunsets her hair blowing in the breeze
She can't see me watching

Thinking… ladaaa aa lada
It's bittersweet more sweet than bitter
Bitter than sweet
It's a bittersweet surrender Gen. 41:9

Bittersweet - Big Head Todd & The Monsters

 

 

 

Don't waste your breath, don't waste my time
If I hear one more excuse I'll lose my mind
It's been a quiet war behind closed doors
Ain't it getting hard to keep your balance anymore?

Walkin' on a wire
Higher and higher
You told the truth but you're still a liar

You deal in black and white and everything in between
you were blessed with such finesse I almost know what you mean Gen. 3:12, Ex. 23:1

Walking On A Wire - Lowen And Navarro

Then we really have to go

I'll be right beside you dear

Louder louder

Tank is full, switch is on
Night is warm, cops are gone
Rocket bike is all her own
It's called a hurricane

She told me once it's quite a ride
It's shaped so there's this place inside
Where if you're moving you can hide
Safe within the rain

She wants to run away
But there's nowhere that she can go
Nowhere the pain won't come again
But she can hide
Hide in the pouring rain
She rides the eye of the hurricane Eph 5:18, Lk 12:20, 1 Co 6:9-10

Eye of the Hurricane - David Wilcox

Wanna tell you a story,
about the house-man blues
I come home one Friday,
had to tell the landlady I'd-a lost my job
She said that don't confront me,
long as I get my money next Friday
Now next Friday come I didn't get the rent,
and out the door I went

So I goes to the landlady,
I said, "You let me slide?"
I'll have the rent for you tomorrow.
The next day I don't know
So said let me slide it on you know people,
I notice when I come home in the evening
She ain't got nothing nice to say to me,
but for five year she was so nice
Loh' she was lovy-dovy,
I come home one particular evening
The landlady said, "You got the rent money yet?",
I said, "No, can't find no job"
Therefore I ain't got no money to pay the rent
She said "I don't believe you're tryin' to find no job"
Said "I seen you today you was standin' on a corner,
leaning up against a post"
I said "But I'm tired, I've been walkin' all day"
She said "That don't confront me,
long as I get my money next Friday"
Now next Friday come I didn't have the rent,
and out the door I went

So I go down the streets,
down to my good friend's house
I said "Look man I'm outdoors you know,
can I stay with you maybe a couple days?"
He said "Uh, Let me go and ask my wife"
He come out of the house,
I could see in his face
I know that was no
He said "I don't know man, ah she kinda funny, you know"
I said "I know, everybody funny, now you funny too."
So I go back home
I tell the landlady I got a job, I'm gonna pay the rent
She said "Yeah?" I said "Oh yeah"
And then she was so nice,
loh' she was lovy-dovy
So I go in my room, pack up my things and I go,
I slip on out the back door and down the streets I go
She a-hollerin' about the front rent, she'll be lucky to get any back rent,
she ain't gonna get none of it
So I stop in the local bar you know people,
I go to the bar, I ring my coat, I call the bartender
Said "Look man, come down here", he got down there
So what you want?

It doesn't matter what I say
So long as I sing with inflection
That makes you feel I'll convey
Some inner truth or vast reflection
But I've said nothing so far
And I can keep it up for as long as it takes
And it don't matter who you are
If I'm doing my job then it's your resolve that breaks

Because the hook brings you back
I ain't tellin' you no lie
The hook brings you back
On that you can rely

There is something amiss
I am being insincere
In fact I don't mean any of this
Still my confession draws you near Ge 29:13-30

Hook - Blues Traveler

 

 

 

The angry boy a bit too insane
Icing over a secret pain
You know you don't belong
You're the first to fight
You're way too loud
You're the flash of light on a burial shroud
I know something's wrong
Well everyone I know has got a reason
To say put the past away
I wish you would step back
From that ledge my friend
You could cut ties with all the lies
That you've been living in
And if you do not want to see me again
I would understand
I would understand Pr 4:23

Jumper - Third Eye Blind

 

 

 

 

All that I am
All that I ever was
Is here in your perfect eyes, they're all I can see
I don't know where
Confused about how as well
Just know that these things will never change for us at all
If I lay here

If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world? Jer 1:5, Ps 139:8, Mt 25:41, Re 22:11

Chasing Cars - Snow Patrol

 

 

Now remain calm, no alarm
Cause my farm ain't fat
So what's up with that?
I've got friends and family that I respect
When I think I'm too good, they put me in check
So believe when I say I'm no better than you
Except when I rap, so I guess it ain't true
Like that, y'all, and you just don't stop
Guaranteed to make your body rock

Check-ch-check-check-check-ch-check it out
What-wha-what-what-what's it all about
Work-wa-work-work-work-wa-work it out
Let's turn this turn this party out Ro 3:12

 

Ch-Check It Out - Beastie Boys  

 

 

 

This speech is my recital, I think it's very vital
To rock a rhyme, that's right on time It's tricky is the title,
here we go
It's tricky to rock a rhyme To rock a rhyme that's right on time It's tricky, it's tricky, tricky (Tricky, tricky) 2 Ti 4:7

It's Tricky - Run DMC

 

 

 

Life goes by so fast
You only wanna do what you think is right
Close your eyes and it's past
Story of my life, Story of my life
And I went down to my old neighborhood
The faces have all changed, there's no one left to talk to
And the pool hall I loved as a kid is now a 7-11 Jas 4:14

Story of My Life - Social Distortion 

 

 

Somethin' ain't right
Gonna get myself, I'm gonna get myself
Gonna get myself connected
I ain't gonna go blind
for the light which is reflected
...If you make sure you're connected,
the writing's on the wall
But if your mind's neglected,
stumble you might fall
Stumble you might fall
Ge 3:17, Ac 2:38, Re 3:17, Jn 14:6, Dan 5:5, 1 Cor 10:4, 1 Pe 2:8, Ps 18:2, 1 Cor 1:23, Lk 20:18

Connected - Stereo MCs

 

 

 

Polo on my back, Nike on my heels
D's on my Caddy, I'm so trill
Diamond in the back, sunroof top
Low End Theory tape cause I'm so hip-hop, when I'm
Drivin' Down the Block Mt 6:21, Ro 12:3

Drivin' Down the Block - Kidz In the Hall

 

 

 

Gonna stamp out your fire, he can change your desire
Don't you know he can make you forget you're a man
Gonna stamp out your fire, he can change your desire
Don't you know he can make you forget you're the man
You're a man

You're twistin' my melon man, you speak so hip 2 Co 5:17, 4:14, Ge 5:1
Step On - Happy Mondays

 

 

 

You think you've got it
Oh, you think you've got it
But got it just don't get it when there's nothin' at all
We get together
Oh, we get together
But separate's always better when there's feelings involved
Know what they say -its: Nothing lasts forever!
Then what makes it, then what makes it, then what makes it, then what makes it, then what makes love the exception?
So why, oh, why, oh why, oh, why, oh, why, oh
Are we still in denial when we know we're not happy here Pr 25:14, Mt 10:34, Am 3:3

Hey Ya - Outkast  

 

 

 

Snatch the mic from ‘em, …. I’mma let you finish in a minute
Yeah the rap is tight
But I’m tryna spit the greatest verse of all time
So you might want to go back to the lab tonight and um
Scribble out them rhymes you were going to spit
And start over from scratch and write new ones
But I’m afraid that it ain’t gonna make no difference
When I rip this stage and tear it in half tonight
It’s an adrenaline rush to feel the bass thump
In the place all the way to the parking lot, fellow
Set fire to the mic and ignite the crowd
You can see the sparks from hot metal
Cold-hearted from the day I Bogarted the game
I so started to rock fellow
When I’m not even in my harshest
You can still get roasted because Marsh is not mellow
Til I’m toppling from the top I’m not going to stop
I’m standing on my Monopoly board
That means I’m on top of my game and it don’t stop
Til my hip don’t hop anymore
When you so good that you can’t say it
’cause it ain’t even cool for you to sound cocky anymore
People just get sick cause you spit
These fools can’t drool or dribble a drop anymore

No Love - Eminem ft. Lil Wayne
