O&A Board Regular Registered: Jan. 01 | One of my favorite songs by one of my favorite bands.... - Counting Crows Well I guess you left me with some feathers in my hand Did it make it any easier to leave me where I stand? I guess there might not be too many who would stand beside you now Where'd you come from? Where am I going? Why'd you leave me 'till I'm only good for... Waiting for you All my sins... I said that I would pay for them if I could come back to you All my innocence is wasted on the dead and dreaming Every night these silhouettes appear above my head Little angels of the silences that climb into my bed and whisper Every time I fall asleep Every time I dream "Did you come? Would you lie? Why'd you leave us 'till we're only good for... Waiting for you" All my sins... I said that I would pay for them if I could come back to you All my innocence is wasted on the dead and dreaming I dream of Michelangelo when I'm lying in my bed Little angels hang above my head and read me like an open book Suck my blood, break my nerve offer me their arms Well, I will not be an enemy of anything I'll only stand here Waiting for you All my sins... I said that I would pay for them if I could come back to you All my innocence is wasted on the dead and dreaming why do I say I'm fine when it's obvious I'm not? why's it so hard to tell you what I want? why can't you just read my mind? | ||||

O&A Board Regular Registered: Oct. 00 | good call Fmfb,i have been listening to them all day, heres one of my favorites...its so hard to pick.. Such a life Such a life Such a life "such a life, such a life,such a life, I'm a comet (common, uncommon?).. honestly I don't know why" All my friends got flowers in their eyes But I got none this season All of last year's blooms have gone and died Time doesn't give a reason well hey maybe you ask yourself Sometimes what you need to be forgiven Everything that you ever done wrong Is the reason that I'm driven Straight to tears Waiting here for you Wanting to tell you How I get me ends and my beginnings mixed up, too Just the way you do I thought if I told you You might want to stay for just another day or two It's just like answers that come in small packages that go in the mail Waiting for the trains that just never come Beginning to believe in The disappearing nature of the people we have been We have begun to change Into the worst kind of people So unkind Oh apologies No apologies This apology doesn't describe The way it feels to feel for you Waiting here for you Wanting to tell you How I find myself slowly disappearing, too Just the way you do I thought if I told you You might want to help me to remain with you I just wanna stay for a little while I wanna stay a little while Oh, come on (4 times) Cause there's a night life just falling down on me I just feel like a change Beneath the sun in the summer a sea of flowers Won't bloom without the rain But oh this desert life This high life Here at the dying end of the day I wasn't made for the scene, baby But I was made in this scene, baby It's just my way I don't wanna go home alone I wanna come on home to you Waiting here for you Wanting to tell you How I line my sky with all the silver I can use Just the way you do I thought if I told you You might want to stay for just another day or two (whispering-like) Isn't that just like disappearing into the sum of yourself and the person you are disappearing into it's like one plus one equals nothing at all one plus two equals nothing at all one plus me equals nothing at all one plus you equals one plus you equals you equals you and you and you and nothing at all (repeated 10 times) if you've heard this one before the one where i surprise you by showing up at your front door saying 'let's not ask what's next, or how, or why' i am leaving in the morning so let's not be shy... | ||||

O&A Board Regular Registered: Oct. 00 | see..i couldn't post just one... Get away from me This isn't gonna be easy But I don't need you Believe me You got a piece of me But it's just a little piece of me And I don't need anyone And these days I feel like I'm fading away Like sometimes when I hear myself on the radio Have you seen me lately? Have you seen me lately? I was out on the radio starting to change Somewhere out in America, it's starting to rain Could you tell me the things you remember about me And have you seen me lately? I remember me And all the little things that make up a memory Like she said she loved to watch me sleep Like she said: "It's the breathing, it's the breathing in and out and in and..." Have you seen me lately? I was out on the radio starting to change Somewhere out in America it's starting to rain Could you tell me the things you remember about me And have you seen me lately? I guess I thought that someone would notice I guess I thought somebody would say something If I was missing Can't you see me? Come on color me in Come on color me in Give me your blue rain Give me your black sky Give me your green eyes Come on give me your white skin Come on give me your white skin Come on give me your white skin I was out on the radio starting to change Somewhere out in America, it's starting to rain Could you tell me the things you remember about me And have you seen me lately? Have you seen me lately | ||||

O&A Board Regular Registered: Jan. 01 | Ya know I notice more and more we have such the same taste in music :) I have been listening to them a lot of the day too....here's another one of my favorites. This circus is falling down on its knees The big top is crumbling down It's raining in Baltimore fifty miles east Where you should be, no one's around I need a phone call I need a raincoat I need a big love I need a phone call These train conversations are passing me by And I don't have nothing to say You get what you pay for But I just had no intention of living this way I need a phone call I need a plane ride I need a sunburn I need a raincoat And I get no answers And I don't get no change It's raining in Baltimore, baby But everything else is the same There's things I remember and things I forget I miss you I guess that I should Three thousand five hundred miles away But what would you change if you could? I need a phone call Maybe I should buy a new car I can always hear a freight train If I listen real hard And I wish it was a small world Because I'm lonely for the big towns I'd like to hear a little guitar I think it's time to put the top down I need a phone call I need a raincoat why do I say I'm fine when it's obvious I'm not? why's it so hard to tell you what I want? why can't you just read my mind? | ||||

O&A Board Regular Registered: Jan. 01 | This one always makes me cry...especially when I see him sing it live.... My friend assures me "it's all or nothing" I am not worried- I am not overly concerned My friend implores me " for one time only, make an exception." I am not not worried Wrap her up in a package of lies Send her off to a coconut island I am not worried - I am not overly concerned with the status of my emotions "oh", She says, "were changing." But were always changing It does not bother me to say this isn't love Because if you don't want to talk about it then it isn't love and I guess I'm going to have to live that but, I'm sure there's something in a shade of gray or something in between and I can always change my name if that's what you mean My friend assures me "it's all or nothing` But I am not really worried I am not overly concerned You try to tell your self the things you try tell your self to make yourself forget to make your self forget I am not worried "If it's love" she said, "then were gonna have to think about the consequences" She can't stop shaking and I can t stop touching her and..... This time when kindness falls like rain It washes her away and Anna begins to change her mind "these seconds when I'm shaking leave me shuddering for days" she says. And I'm not ready for this sort of thing But I'm not gonna break And I'm not going to worry about it anymore I'm not gonna bend. And I'm not gonna break and I'm not gonna worry about it anymore It seems like I should say "as long as this is love..." But it's not all that easy so maybe I should just snap her up in a butterfly net- Pin her down on a photograph album I am not worried I've done this sort of thing before But then I start to think about the consequences Because I don't get no sleep in a quiet room and... The time when kindness falls like rain It washes me away and Anna begins change my mind And every time she sneezes I believe it's love and oh lord.... I'm not ready for this sort of thing She s talking in her sleep-it s keeping me awake And Anna begins to toss and turn And every word is nonsense but I understand and and oh lord. I m not ready for this sort of thing Her kindness bangs a gong It's moving me along and Anna begins to fade away It s chasing me away. She dissappears, and oh lord I'm not ready for this sort of thing why do I say I'm fine when it's obvious I'm not? why's it so hard to tell you what I want? why can't you just read my mind? | ||||

O&A Board Regular Registered: Aug. 00 | If we are going for favourites... Well I woke up in mid-afternoon cause that's when it all hurts the most I dream I never know anyone at the party and I'm always the host If dreams are like movies, then memories are films about ghosts You can never escape, you can only move south down the coast Well, I am an idiot walking a tightrope of fortune and fame I am an acrobat swinging trapezes through circles of flame If you've never stared off in the distance, then your life is a shame And though I'll never forget your face, sometimes I can't remember my name Hey Mrs. Potter don't cry Hey Mrs. Potter I know why but Hey Mrs. Potter won't you talk to me Well, there's a piece of Maria in every song that I sing And the price of a memory is the memory of the sorrow it brings And there is always one last light to turn out and one last bell to ring And the last one out of the circus has to lock up everything Or the elephants will get out and forget to remember what you said And the ghosts of the tilt-a-whirl will linger inside of your head And the ferris wheel junkies will spin them forever instead When I see you a blanket of stars covers me in my bed Hey Mrs. Potter don't go Hey Mrs. Potter I don't know but Hey Mrs. Potter won't you talk to me All the blue light reflections that color my mind when I sleep And the lovesick rejections that accompany the company I keep All the razor perceptions that cut just a little too deep Hey I can bleed as well as anyone, but I need someone to help me sleep So I throw my hand into the air and it swims in the beams It's just a brief interruption of the swirling dust sparkle jet stream Well, I know I don't know you and you're probably not what you seem But I'd sure like to find out So why don't you climb down off that movie screen Hey Mrs. Potter don't turn Hey Mrs. Potter I burn for you Hey Mrs. Potter won't you talk to me When the last king of Hollywood shatters his glass on the floor and orders another Well, I wonder what he did that for That's when I know that I have to get out cause I have been there before So I gave up my seat at the bar and I head for the door We drove out to the desert just to lie down beneath this bowl of stars We stand up at the Palace like it's the last of the great Pioneertown bars We shout out these songs against the clang of electric guitars You can see a million miles tonight But you can't get very far Hey Mrs. Potter I won't touch and Hey Mrs. Potter it's not much but Hey Mrs. Potter won't you talk to me Funny how ev'rything was roses When we held on to the guns Write To Me Here AIM: SmarterChild Sweet Mother Mary, so many say they've seen you But if I'm shown, I promise I'll lie Cause most things are meaningless, the more you get to know them Down here love is the only gun I trust

CHORUS: Asleep in perfect blue buildings Beside the green apple sea Gonna get me a little oblivion, baby Try to keep myself away from me (myself and) me It's 4:30 A.M. on a Tuesday It doesn't get much worse than this In beds in little rooms in buildings in the middle of these lives which are completely meaningless Help me stay awake, I'm falling... (CHORUS) I got bones beneath my skin, and mister...

Psychopath Registered: Mar. 01 | I was down at the New Amsterdam staring at this yellow-haired girl Mr. Jones strikes up a conversation with this black- haired flamenco dancer She dances while his father plays guitar She's suddenly beautiful We all want something beautiful I wish I was beautiful So come dance this silence down through the morning Cut up, Maria! Show me some of them Spanish dances Pass me a bottle, Mr. Jones Believe in me Help me believe in anything I want to be someone who believes Mr. Jones and me tell each other fairy tales Stare at the beautiful women "She's looking at you. Ah, no, no, she's looking at me." Smiling in the bright lights Coming through in stereo When everybody loves you, you can never be lonely I will paint my picture Paint myself in blue and red and black and gray All of the beautiful colors are very very meaningful Gray is my favorite color I felt so symbolic yesterday If I knew Picasso I would buy myself a gray guitar and play Mr. Jones and me look into the future Stare at the beautiful women "She's looking at you. , I don't think so. She's looking at me." Standing in the spotlight I bought myself a gray guitar When everybody loves me, I will never be lonely I want to be a lion Everybody wants to pass as cats We all want to be big big stars, but we got different reasons for that Believe in me because I don't believe in anything and I want to be someone to believe Mr. Jones and me stumbling through the barrio Yeah we stare at the beautiful women "She's perfect for you, Man, there's got to be somebody for me." I want to be Bob Dylan Mr. Jones wishes he was someone just a little more funky When everybody loves you, son, that's just about as funky as you can be Mr. Jones and me staring at the video when I look at the television, I want to see me staring right back at me We all want to be big stars, but we don't know why and we don't know how But when everybody loves me, I'm going to be just about as happy as I can be Mr. Jones and me, we're gonna be big stars... When i whip my hips you slip into a trance. | ||||

Psychopath Registered: Sep. 00 | ROUND HERE Step out the front door like a ghost into the fog where no one notices the contrast of white on white. And in between the moon and you the angels get a better view of the crumbling difference between wrong and right. I walk in the air between the rain, through myself and back again. Where? I don't know Maria says she's dying. Through thedoor, I hear her crying Why? I don't know Round here we always stand up straight Round here something radiates Maria came from Nashville with a suitcase in her hand She said she'd like to meet a boy who looks like Elvis She walks along the edge of where the ocean meets the land Just like she's walking on a wire in the circus She parks her car outside of my house, takes her clothes off, Says she's close to understanding Jesus She knows she's more that just a little misunderstood She has trouble acting normal when she's nervous Round here we're carving out our names Round here we all look the same Round here we talk just like lions But we sacrifice like lambs Round here she's slipping through my hands Sleeping children got to run like the wind Out of the lightning dream Mama's little baby better get herself in Out of the lightning She says, "It's only in my head." She says, "Shhh....I know it's only in my head." But the girl on the car in the parking lot says: "Man, you should try to take a shot Can't you see my walls are crumbling." Then she looks up at the building and says she's thinking of jumping. She says she's tired of life; she must be tired of something. Round here she's always on my mind Round here I got lots of time Round here we're never sent to bed early Nobody makes us wait Round here we stay up very very late | ||||

O&A Board Regular Registered: Jan. 01 | Counting Crows---The Ghost In You A man in my shoes runs a liar, and all the papers lie tonight that falling over you is the news of the day. The angels fall like rain, and your love is all of heaven away. Inside you time moves and she don't fade, The ghost in you, she don't fade. The race is on I'm on your side, but hearing you my engines die, I'm in the mood for you, for running away. Oh the stars come down in you And love, love, love, can't give it away Inside you the time moves and she don't fade away The ghost in you, she don't fade. So don't you go, cause it makes no sense and all these talking supermen just take away the time, just to get it away. Ain't it just like the rain Cause love, love, love, love, is only heaven away. Inside you the time moves, and she don't fade The ghost in you, she don't fade away. Inside you the time moves, and she don't fade The ghost in you, she don't fade away. The man in my shoes runs a liar, and all the papers lie tonight That falling over you is the news of the day. And love, will not fade away. And love, love, love, will not fade away.
