-Sukiyaki-

i look up as i walk

so the tears won't fall

remembering those happy spring days

but tonight i'm all alone

i look up as i walk

counting the stars with tearful eyes

remembering those happy summer days

but tonight i'm all alone

Posted by LovingSeraphina

no videos please. just words 🙂

I've never had much use for these scars in me, but I love that you do

And I'll always be yours

Not really inspiring lol but these are some of my favorites at the moment. Hope your Monday goes well!

"There's still a thread that runs from your body to mine. And you can't break what you don't see, an invisible line. If I follow it down would we just be alright? But it could take me all your life to learn to love. How I thought I could love someone I haven't even begun. If it's all up to us we might as well give up."

"Some people got the real problems

Some people out of luck

Some people think I can solve them

Lord heavens above

I'm only human after all

I'm only human after all

Don't put the blame on me

Don't put the blame on me"

"Where we're going you won't need him

No looking back from here on in

Let's move you on to better things

'Cause you deserve more than you think

Forget everything you're told

There's greener grass and denser gold

Maybe I should bite my tongue

But I can’t seem to fight it

And gone are the days you're used to (gone are the days)

Say goodbye to the man who used you, oh

And if you've never felt

This way before

I’ll show you girl

What you've been waiting for

I can free your mind

Help you lose control

'Cause now's the time

To show you girl"

-Fade To Black-

Life, it seems, will fade away

Drifting further every day

Getting lost within myself

Nothing matters, no one else

I have lost the will to live

Simply nothing more to give

There is nothing more for me

Need the end to set me free

Things not what they used to be

Missing one inside of me

Deathly lost, this can't be real

Cannot stand this hell I feel

Emptiness is filling me

To the point of AGONY

Growing darkness taking dawn

I was me, but now he's gone

No one but me can save myself, but it's too late

Now I can't think, think why I should even try

Yesterday seems as though it never existed

Death greets me warm, now I will just say goodbye

-Capricorn Moon-

-Virgo Mercury-

-Just A Girl-

'Cause I'm just a girl, a little 'ol me

Well don't let me out of your sight

Oh I'm just a girl, all pretty and petite

So don't let me have any rights

'Cause I'm just a girl I'd rather not be

'Cause they won't let me drive late at night

Oh I'm just a girl, guess I'm some kind of freak

'Cause they all sit and stare with their eyes

Oh I'm just a girl, take a good look at me

Just your typical prototype

I'm just a girl, living in captivity

Your rule of thumb makes me worry some

I'm just a girl, what's my destiny?

What I've succumbed to is making me numb

Oh I'm just a girl, my apologies

What I've become is so burdensome

Oh I'm just a girl, lucky me

Twiddle-dum there's no comparison

I'm just a girl

I'm just a girl in the world...

That's all that you'll let me be!

Oh...I've had it up to here!

-Cancer Moon-

-Libra Mercury-

-Too Much Love Will Kill You-

I'm just the shadow of the man I used to be

And it seems like there's no way out of this for me

I used to bring you sunshine

Now all I ever do is bring you down

-Sagittarius Moon-

-Virgo Mercury-

That November night, looking up into the sky

You said hey wish that was me up there

It's the biggest rocket I could find

And it's holding the night in its arms

If for only a moment

I can't see the look in its eyes

But I'm sure it must be laughing

But it seemed to me the saddest thing I'd ever seen

And I thought you were crazy wishing such a thing

- Rocket's Tail-

Kate Bush

May God bless and keep you always

May your wishes all come true

May you always do for others

And let others do for you

May you build a ladder to the stars

And climb on every rung

May you stay forever young

Forever young, forever young

May you stay forever young.

May you grow up to be righteous

May you grow up to be true

May you always know the truth

And see the lights surrounding you

May you always be courageous

Stand upright and be strong

May you stay forever young

Forever young, forever young

May you stay forever young.

May your hands always be busy

May your feet always be swift

May you have a strong foundation

When the winds of changes shift

May your heart always be joyful

And may your song always be sung

May you stay forever young

Forever young, forever young

May you stay forever young.

- Forever Young, Bob Dylan

K, so this is one of my all time favorite lyrics, but it's probably a tad offensive to some peeps...whatevs I'm gonna post it lol.

I'll look at you, and you will look at me

With my d*** in my hands as you fall to your knees

You know what to do, 'cause I won't say please

Just nibble on my d*** like a rat does cheese!

- 2 LIVE CREW, "We Want Some P****"

If you believe in magic, come along with me

We'll dance until morning till there's just you and me

And maybe, if the music is right

I'll meet you tomorrow, sort of late at night

And we'll go dancing, baby, then you'll see

How the magic's in the music and the music's in me

- The Lovin Spoonful, "Do You Believe In Magic?" - one of my fav songs 🙂

-Nothing Compares 2 U-

It's been so lonely without u here

Like a bird without a song

Nothing can stop these lonely tears from falling

Tell me baby where did I go wrong

All the flowers that u planted, boy

In the back yard

All died when u went away

I know that living with u baby was sometimes hard

But I'm willing to give it another try

-Libra Moon-

-Scorpio Mercury-

I watched her perform this live in January this year. Beautiful.

"And we walked without words

And we walked with our lives

Two silent birds circled by

Like a pain in the river

And the pain in the river

And the white sun scattered

Washed away this slow

And we followed the river

And we followed the road

And we walked through this land

And we called it a home

But he wanted the sun

And I wanted the whole

And the white light scatters

And the sun sets low..."

- The River -

PJ Harvey

How can we not talk about family when family's all that we got?

Everything I went through you were standing there by my side

And now you gon' be with me for the last ride

It's been a long day without you, my friend

And I'll tell you all about it when I see you again (I see you again)

We've come a long way (yeah, we came a long way) from where we began (you know we started)

Oh, I'll tell you all about it when I see you again (let me tell you)

When I see you again

- Wiz Khalifa (n Charlie Puth), "See You Again" (I get SO emo when I hear this song)

-Lady Starlight-

It seems to me like yesterday

I think you knew I couldn't stay

I see the stars, they're miles and miles away

Like our love

Why do we scream at each other

This is what it sounds like

When doves cry

- Prince, "When Doves Cry"

-Oh Me-

I don't have to think

I only have to do it

The results are always perfect

But that's old news

-Aquarius Moon-

-Capricorn Mercury-

Oh I'd rather go and journey where the diamond crest is flowing and

Run across the valley beneath the sacred mountain and

Wander through the forest

Where the the trees have leaves of prisms and break the light in colors

That no one knows the names of

And when it's time I'll go and wait beside a legendary fountain

Till I see your form reflected in it's clear and jewelled waters

And if you think I'm ready

You may lead me to the chasm where the rivers of our vision

Flow into one another

I will want to die beneath the white cascading waters

She may beg, she may plead, she may argue with her logic

And then she'll know the things I learned

That really have no value in the end she will surely know

I wasn't born to follow

- The Byrds, "Wasn't Born To Follow"...yeah sorry I'm like spamming your thread here ha 😄

-Buffalo Soldier-

And he was taken from Africa, brought to America,

Fighting on arrival, fighting for survival.

If you know your history,

Then you would know where you coming from,

Then you wouldn't have to ask me,

Who the 'eck do I think I am.

I'm just a Buffalo Soldier in the heart of America,

Stolen from Africa, brought to America,

Said he was fighting on arrival, fighting for survival;

Said he was a Buffalo Soldier win the war for America.

Said he was a Buffalo Soldier win the war for America;

Buffalo Soldier, Dreadlock Rasta,

Fighting on arrival, fighting for survival;

Driven from the mainland to the heart of the Caribbean.

Troddin' through San Juan in the arms of America

Troddin' through Jamaica, a Buffalo Soldier

Fighting on arrival, fighting for survival

Buffalo Soldier, Dreadlock Rasta.

-Scorpio Moon-

-Aquarius Mercury-

-Lake Of Fire-

Where do bad folks go when they die?

They don't go to heaven where the angels fly

They go down to the lake of fire and fry

Won't see them again 'till the fourth of July

-Aquarius Moon-

-Capricorn Mercury-

-The Inner Light-

Without going out of my door

I can know all things on Earth

Without looking out of my window

I could know the ways of Heaven

The farther one travels

The less one knows

The less one really knows

Without going out of your door

You can know all things on Earth

Without looking out of your window

You could know the ways of Heaven

Arrive without travelling

See all without looking

Do all without doing

-Scorpio Moon-

-Aquarius Mercury-

-Free Bird-

If I leave here tomorrow

Would you still remember me?

For I must be traveling on now

'Cause there's too many places I've got to see.

But if I stayed here with you, girl,

Things just couldn't be the same.

'Cause I'm as free as a bird now,

And this bird you can not change,

Lord knows I can't change.

Bye, bye, baby, it's been a sweet love, yeah,

Though this feeling I can't change.

But please don't take it so badly,

'Cause Lord knows I'm to blame.

-Mama Said-

Mama she has taught me well

Told me when I was young

Son your life's an open book

Don't close it 'fore its done

The brightest flame burns quickest

That's what I heard her say

A son's heart's owed to mother

But I must find my way

Let my heart go

Let your son grow

Mama, let my heart go

Or let this heart be still

Yeah, still

Rebel, my new last name

Wild blood in my veins

Apron strings around my neck

The mark that still remains

Left home at an early age

Of what I heard was wrong

I never asked forgiveness

But what is said is done

Let my heart go

Let your son grow

Mama, let my heart go

Or let this heart be still

Never I ask of you

But never I gave

But you gave me your emptiness that I'll take to my grave

Never I ask of you

But never I gave

But you gave me your emptiness that I'll take to my grave

So let this heart be still

Mama, now I'm coming home

I'm not all you wished of me

A mother's love for her son

Unspoken, and maybe

Yeah, I took your love for granted

And all the things you said to me

I need your arms to welcome me

But, a cold stone's all I see

Let my heart go

Let your son grow

Mama, let my heart go

Or let this heart be still

Let my heart go

Mama, let my heart go

You never let my heart go

So let this heart be still

Never I ask of you

But never I gave

But you gave me your emptiness that I'll take to my grave

Never I ask of you

But never I gave

But you gave me your emptiness that I'll take to my grave

So let this heart be still

-Capricorn Moon-

-Virgo Mercury-

Now if you're feelin' kinda low 'bout the dues you've been paying

Future's coming much too slow

And you wanna run but somehow you just keep on stayin'

Can't decide on which way to go

Yeah, yeah, yeah

I understand about indecision

But I don't care if I get behind

People livin' in competition

All I want is to have my peace of mind

Now you're climbin' to the top of the company ladder

Hope it doesn't take too long

Can'tcha see there'll come a day when it won't matter

Come a day when you'll be gone

I understand about indecision

But I don't care if I get behind

People livin' in competition

All I want is to have my peace of mind

Take a look ahead, take a look ahead, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah...

Now everybody's got advice they just keep on givin'

Doesn't mean too much to me

Lot's of people out to make-believe they're livin'

Can't decide who they should be

I understand about indecision

But I don't care if I get behind

People livin' in competition

All I want is to have my peace of mind

Take a look ahead, take a look ahead. Look ahead

BOSTON, "Peace Of Mind"

-Questions-

In a dream it would seem

I went to those who close the open door

And turning the key

I sat and spoke to those inside of me

They answered my questions with questions

And they pointed me into the night

Where the moon was a star-painted dancer

And the world was just a spectrum of light

They reached to my center of reason

And pulled on the touchstone that's there

The shock of that light had me reeling

And I fell into the depths of despair

Turning the key

I sat and spoke to those inside of me

They answered my questions with questions

And they set me to stand on the brink

Where the sun and the moon were as brothers

And all that was left was to think

They answered my questions with questions

And they pointed me into the night

And the power that bore me had left me alone

To figure out which way was right

-Gemini Moon-

-Scorpio Mercury-

Hey, don't write yourself off yet

It's only in your head you feel left out or looked down on.

Just try your best, try everything you can.

And don't you worry what they tell themselves when you're away.

Hey, you know they're all the same.

You know you're doing better on your own (on your own), so don't buy in.

Live right now, yeah, just be yourself.

It doesn't matter if it's good enough (good enough) for someone else.

Hey, don't write yourself off yet.

It's only in your head you feel left out or looked down on.

Just do your best (just do your best), do everything you can (do everything you can).

And don't you worry what the bitter hearts are gonna say.

It just takes some time,

Little girl, you're in the middle of the ride.

Everything, everything will be just fine,

Everything, everything will be alright, alright.

I'm the king of my own land

Facing tempests of dust, I'll fight until the end

Creatures of my dreams raise up and dance with me!

Now and forever, I'm your king!

I love this song! It used to play a lot in my head when I was younger and everything seemed to be going wrong. It motivated me and kept me going like ha I'll show you. 😛

Matt Goss - Firefly

'Cause I see your life, through bloodshot eyes

The smile you see, not the pain it hides

Trust the fool, he'll never shine like a firefly

I'm healing from last results, compromise in summersaults

I'm moving on, I'm gonna shine like a firefly

Now you're just somebody that I used to know.

- Gotye, Somebody That I Used to Know

A Perfect Circle - The Noose

So glad to see you well

Overcome and completely silent now

With heavens help you cast your demons out

And not to pull your halo down

Around your neck and tug you off your cloud

But I'm more than just a little curious

How you're planning to go about making your amends

To the dead

To the dead

Recall the deeds as if they're all

Someone else's atrocious stories

Now you stand reborn before us all

So glad to see you well

And not to pull your halo down

Around your neck and tug you to the ground

But I'm more than just a little curious

How you're planning to go about making your amends

To the dead

To the dead

With your halo slipping down

Your halo slipping

Your halo slipping down

Your halo slipping down

but I'm more than just a little curious

(With your halo slipping down) how you're planning to go about making your

(With your halo slipping down) more than just a little curious

(With your halo slipping down) how you're planning to go about making your

(With your halo slipping down) more than just a little curious

Your halo slipping down

To choke you now

-Redemption Song-

Old pirates, yes, they rob I,

Sold I to the merchant ships

Minutes after they took I

From the bottomless pit

But my hand was made strong

By the hand of the Almighty

We forward in this generation

Triumphantly

Won't you help to sing

These songs of freedom?

'Cause all I ever have

Redemption songs

Emancipate yourself from mental slavery

None but our self can free our minds

Have no fear for atomic energy

'Cause none of them can stop the time

How long shall they kill our prophets

While we stand aside and look?

Some say it's just a part of it

We've got to fulfill the book

Won't you help to sing

These songs of freedom?

'Cause all I ever have

Redemption songs

Emancipate yourself from mental slavery

None but our self can free our mind

Have no fear for atomic energy

'Cause none of them can stop the time

How long shall they kill our prophets

While we stand aside and look?

Some say it's just a part of it

We've got to fulfill the book

Won't you help to sing

These songs of freedom?

'Cause all I ever had

Redemption songs

All I ever had

Redemption songs

These songs of freedom

"Misguided Ghosts"

I'm going away for a while

But I'll be back

Don't try and follow me

'Cause I'll return as soon as possible

See, I'm trying to find my place

But it might not be here where I feel safe

We all learn to make mistakes

And run from them, from them

With no direction

We'll run from them, from them

With no conviction

'Cause I'm just one of those ghosts

Travelin' endlessly

Don't need no roads

In fact, they follow me

And we just go in circles

And now I'm told that this is life

That pain is just a simple compromise

So we can get what we want out of it

Would someone care to classify?

Our broken hearts and twisted minds

So I can find someone to rely on

And run to them, to them

Full speed ahead

Oh, you are not useless

We are just

Misguided ghosts

Travelin' endlessly

The ones we trusted the most

Pushed us far away

And there's no one road

We should not be the same

But I'm just a ghost

And still they echo me

They echo me in circles

-The Sound Of Silence-

Hello darkness, my old friend

I've come to talk with you again

Because a vision softly creeping

Left its seeds while I was sleeping

And the vision that was planted in my brain

Still remains

Within the sound of silence

In restless dreams I walked alone

Narrow streets of cobblestone

‘Neath the halo of a streetlamp

I turned my collar to the cold and damp

When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light

That split the night

And touched the sound of silence

And in the naked light I saw

Ten thousand people, maybe more

People talking without speaking

People hearing without listening

People writing songs that voices never share

No one dare

Disturb the sound of silence

“Fools” said I, “You do not know

Silence like a cancer grows

Hear my words that I might teach you

Take my arms that I might reach you”

But my words like silent raindrops fell

And echoed in the wells of silence

And the people bowed and prayed

To the neon god they made

And the sign flashed out its warning

In the words that it was forming

And the sign said “The words of the prophets

Are written on the subway walls

And tenement halls

And whispered in the sounds of silence”

-Cancer Moon-

-Scorpio Mercury-

-The Way I Am-

And I just do not got the patience

To deal with these cocky Caucasians

Who think I'm some wigger who just tries to be black

‘Cause I talk with an accent and grab on my balls

So they always keep asking the same fucking questions

What school did I go to, what hood I grew up in

The why, the who, what, when, the where and the how

'Til I'm grabbing my hair and I'm tearin' it out

‘Cause they driving me crazy, I can't take it

I'm racin', I'm pacin', I stand and I sit

And I'm thankful for every fan that I get

But I can't take a shit in the bathroom

Without someone standing by it

No, I won't sign you an autograph

You can call me an asshole, I'm glad, ‘cause…

I am whatever you say I am

If I wasn't, then why would I say I am?

In the paper, the news, every day I am

Radio won't even play my jam

‘Cause I am whatever you say I am

If I wasn't, then why would I say I am?

In the paper, the news, every day I am

I don't know, it's just the way I am

Gemini moon

Gemini mercury

oddly short for a Gem lmao

I hold an image of the ashtray girl

Of cigarette burns on my chest

I wrote a poem that described her world

And put our friendship to the test

And late at night whilst on all fours

She used to watch me kiss the floor

What's wrong with this picture?

What's wrong with this picture?

Farewell the ashtray girl

Forbidden snowflake

Beware this troubled world

Watch out for earthquakes

Goodbye to open sores

To broken semaphore

You know we miss her

We miss her picture

Sometimes it's faded

(We) Disintegrate it

For fear of growing old

Sometimes it's fated

(We) Assassinate it

For fear of growing old

- "This Picture" -

Aquarius Moon (6th house)

Scorpio Mercury (3rd house)

In the clearing stands a boxer

And a fighter by his trade

And he carries the remainders

Of every glove that laid him down

And cut him till he cried out

In his anger and his shame

“I am leaving, I am leaving”

But the fighter still remains

Still remains

Lie-la-lie...

Oh, mirror in the sky, what is love?

Can the child within my heart rise above?

Can I sail through the changing ocean tides?

Can I handle the seasons of my life?

But now old friends are acting strange

They shake their heads, they say I've changed

Well something's lost, but something's gained

In living every day

I've looked at life from both sides now

From win and lose and still somehow

It's life's illusions I recall

I really don't know life at all

All of your history has little to do with your face

You're mainly a mystery with violins filling in space

My mother and her little brown jug

It held her milk

And now it holds our memories

I can hear her singing

"Little brown jug don't I love thee"

"Little brown jug don't I love thee"

Ho ho ho, hee hee hee

I hear her laughing

She is standing in the kitchen

As we come in the back door

See it fall

See it fall

Oh little spider climbing out of a broken jug

And the pieces will lay there a while

In a house draped in net

In a room filled with coral

Sails at the window

Forests of masts

Put your hand over the side of the boat

Put your hand over the side of the boat

What do you feel?
