Hear the sound of the falling rain
Coming down like an armageddon flame
The shame
The ones who died without a name
Hear the dogs howling out of key
To a hymn called "Faith and Misery"
And bleed the company lost the war today

I beg to dream and differ from the hollow lies
This is the dawning of the rest of our lives
On holiday

Hear the drum pounding out of time
Another protester has crossed the line
To find the money's on the other side
Can I get another amen?
There's a flag wrapped around a score of men
A gag
A plastic bag on a monument

I beg to dream and differ from the hollow lies
This is the dawning of the rest of our lives
On holiday

The representative of California has the floor
Zieg Heil to the president gas man
Bombs away is your punishment
Pulverize the Eiffel Tower
Don't criticize your government
Bang bang goes the broken glass
Kill all the fags that don't agree
Trial by fire setting fire
Is not the way that is meant for me

Just 'cause... just 'cause because we're outlaws (YEAH)
I beg to dream and differ from the hollow lies
This is the dawning of the rest of our lives
This is our lives on holiday

---And here's a short exerpt from another song for all you loners like myself---

My shadow's the only one that walks beside me
My shallow heart's the only thing that beating
Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me
'Til then I walk alone

even when we find ourselves lonely in the physical sense; cant we look spiritually to the heavens? not to question what you believe in; but how can it be so amazing and worth it if we dont take these hard times to utilize what we are? believe in? i guess what i'm saying is; everything happens cuz its supposed to. maybe the greatness of what lies upstairs is trying to make you see that when the world is dark around you...light comes from Him. I wish i knew enuf about what you believe in to try and formulate words and names for things. but i dont; i'm just trying to understand you i guess. Even when i'm down at my lowest point...i can always look to my God and see an end-surrendering myself to his mission. ok, i'm like 5mins late to work...i had to post before all the eloquey (sp?) was gone in my words :)


i heart you!

I'm not depressed or anything, dear. I just like Holiday because its message is lost on many Americans (IMHO). But thanks for once again letting me know that you care :)

I <3 you too!

i know you are not lost...but you said something about being a 'loner like yourself' i guess that's what i was aiming at; where the spark for the post came from. :)

I wrote you a song tonight at work!!!

I forget your address and I didn't want to send it over messenger so it's going on here. I'll sing it for you sometime but it might have to be after a couple glasses of wine ha ha. Anyway this isn't the finished product but I couldn't keep it in aaaaghghgh. Okay. *ahem*

Hello, my love - we meet again
I have some things to say
When you're lonely in the dark
I will light the way

Life's as short as it is hard
and while some will be untrue,
there is nothing on this earth
that can keep me long from you.

So when your body's weak and cold
your refuge I will be
in my arms your dreams unfold
I'll keep you close to me.

I'll be the blood running through your veins
I'll be the song that your heart refrains
I am the deluge to cleanse your soul
the missing half that makes you whole.

And when you're feeling down and weary
I will help your eyes see clearly
through the dark that surrounds you
feel my loving arms around you.

<3
