Bertie Higgins - Pirates And Poets Lyrics
I was born beside a big blue bay
Grew up on the Gulf of Mexico
Dreamed of the islands with Papa Hemingway
And ol' Errol Flynn was my hero
All I ever wanted was to find you, girl
Make love upon the seven seas
But if we ne...

alexthomasdavis - A Poets Thing Lyrics
Check check check
Shake shake shake
I'm going down my friend
Down on the ground again
What do you think my friend
This could be the end

MisEuphoria - Do Poets Die Alone Lyrics
You came inside my room, with your hair down nothing you can say now
You left my room with a smile on your face
I heard the news today; it took a phone call to tell me what they saw
This is more pressure than I can take
Until 3 past n...
Taylor Swift - The Lakes Lyrics
Is it romantic how all my elegies eulogize me?
I'm not cut out for all these cynical clones
These hunters with cell phones
Take me to the lakes, where all the poets went to die
I don't belong and, my beloved, neither do you

Elliot Root - Punks And Poets Lyrics
[Intro]
It's an alliteration
Punks and poets
Praying for no pain
It's just a hopeful destination
Saints and sinners
They're laughing all the same

See, I don't mind what you have to say

Milo - Poet (Black Bean) Lyrics
It seems to me that the artist's struggle
For his integrity
Is a kind of metaphor
Must be considered as a metaphor
For the struggle, which is universal and daily
Of all human beings on the face of this terrifying globe
To get to become...
Billy Vaughn - Cherry Pink And Apple Blossom White Lyrics
It's cherry pink and apple blossom white
When your true lover comes your way
It's cherry pink and apple blossom white
The poets say
The story goes that once a cherry tree
Beside an apple tree did grow
And there a boy once met his...
The Cribs - Shoot The Poets Lyrics
Cut off your nose despite your friends
Breathing holes that will never end and
Speak all you want or just pretend
Cos she think she is a different class
So she sits all day by the looking glass, oh

Wallis Bird - The Ocean Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You are everything
You are everything
And I'm not running anymore
You've pried me open
Like a drawer
I want for nothing
Than is more

This is the poets beauty
The kind I dream of

Blossom Dearie - They Say It's Spring Lyrics
When I was young I lived in a world of dreams
Of moods and myths and illusionary schemes
Though now I'm much more grown up
I fear that I must own up
To the fact that I'm in doubt of
What the modern cynics shout of
They say it...
Taylor Swift - The Tortured Poets Department Lyrics
You left your typewriter at my apartment
Straight from the Tortured Poets Department
I think some things I never say
Like, "Who uses typewriters anyway?" But
You're in self-sabotage mode, throwing spikes down on the road

Wolves Like Us - We Were Blood Lyrics
I walked with you, with that swagger Like we were weightless.
We Didn´t Believe in Anything, smoked by the creek.
You were all poets And I wanted to be Like you.
I sat Listening and watched you paint the Room with A Song
Oh wher...
Torche - Minions Lyrics
High brow tradition
Let's discover restricted
Few misguided reasons
Some day proved
We'll all see them
White powered duchess
Kind to some new prospects
Come by minions
And soon be mine
In the millions

Rolo Tomassi - Curby Lyrics
Heads down with pens poised like poets,
Waiting forever for that one golden moment.
Idle thoughts are empty threats
Threadbare dreams with a distinct lack of vision
Isn't it time we started to live between the double clicks

Shaan - Seven Stages Of Love Lyrics

Andrew Bird - Bloodless Lyrics
[Verse 1]
They're profiting from your worry
They're selling blanks down at the DMZ
They're banking on the sound and fury
Makes you wonder what it all's got to do with me

Bloodless for now

Emerson, Lake & Palmer - 21st Century Schizoid Man Lyrics
Cat's foot, iron claw
Neuro-surgeons scream for more
At paranoia's poison door
Twenty-first century schizoid man
Blood rack, barbed wire
Politicians' funeral pyre
Innocents raped with napalm fire
Twenty-first centur...
The Saddest Landscape - The Fire Between Heartbeats Lyrics
We dive right in chasing the fire between heartbeats when we should walk away,
Because mutually assured self destruction feels better than missing you.
You call it superstition, we call it protection
Deliver our love like a curse...
Daniel Romano - Empty Husk Lyrics
[Verse 1]
So the mirror poets lap
From the serpent's ruptured wrath
They finger at the monarch
With the reproduction blush

Oh but I can hardly see them
With their saintly diadem
I implore my preservation

Nobody Move - Green Room Lyrics
Lip stick on the necks of all the trophy won liars
We'll be the foreground
Be the ones that do it best
We'll be the poets
And also cunning honey, look impressed
We know,
The way to be the ones
To have the sharpest tongue...
Marillion - Fugazi Lyrics
Track 7 of _Fugazi_ ---
Vodka intimate, an affair with isolation in a Blackheath cell
Extinguishing the fires in a private hell
Provoking the heartache to renew the licence
Of a bleeding heart poet in a fragile capsule
Propping up the crus...
The Highwaymen - American Remains Lyrics
[Johnny Cash]
I am a shotgun rider,
For the San Jacinto line,
The desert is my brother,
My skin is cracked and dry.
I was ridin' on a folk coach
And everything was fine,
Till we took a shorter road
To save some time.
The band...
Leif Vollebekk - Ladyland Lyrics
Heroes would've fought for you
And poets would've thought of you
Had you lived back when they did those sorts of things
And seeing as how i long for you
I thought maybe i'd write a song or two for you
If i could onl...
Poets Of The Fall - Smoke and Mirrors Lyrics
I danced a tango with my hubris high on youth
We swept across the dance floor to subjective truth
But there was no harmony there
No reason for coexistence
Nothing to span the distance, now
Do we even know who we are
Living like all life i...
William Elliott Whitmore - Who Stole The Soul Lyrics
Who stole the soul
And who stole the heart
And who took the spark from inside of me
Why can't I breathe
And I'm afraid they won't stop
Till all the poets have failed
Till all the good men are jailed for nothing...
Barry Manilow - The Twelfth Of Never Lyrics
You ask me how much I need you, must I explain?
I need you, oh my darling, like roses need rain
You ask how long I'll love you,
I'll tell you true Until the Twelfth of Never,
I'll still be loving you
Hold me clos...
Y!KES - Uncanny Valley Lyrics
Such a subtle difference your face makes my stomach turn,
My skin is crawling as you keep on falling,
Legacies that we watch burn
I can't shed the thought of what you used to be before,
You're now all crumbled in...
Tess Parks - Walk Behind Your House Lyrics
Well I melted and fell flat after
I was built so tall
When I was just so young
Wanted to stay home a lil' longer
In the room next to my sisters
My best friend is my neighbor
Ask him favors for favors
Jesus is our savior

Cole Porter - Love For Sale Lyrics
When the only sound on the empty street
Is the heavy tread of the heavy feet
That belong to a lonesome cop
I open shop
The moon so long has been gazing down
On the warward ways of this wayward town
Her smile becomes a smirk, I go to work
Lo...
Styles P - Poets & Gangstas Lyrics
The number 7 is the seeker, the thinker, the searcher of truth
The Seven doesn't take anything at face value,
It is always trying to understand the underlying hidden truth
The Seven knows that nothing is exactly as it seems
And that ...
Broken Social Scene - Mouth Guards Of The Apocalypse Lyrics
How did this happen

It's dances and hatred
And the radio sounds like shit
If you can't help me
Then help someone like me
'Cause it all went away, and it went quietly
Words of hope are a joke for the numb...

Joshua Radin - Only A Wave (Better Days) Lyrics
No, I'm never gonna make
The same mistake
It's the one thing I know
As I lie awake
I saw you as the sun
But you're only a day
I saw you as the ocean
But you're only a wave
Well, I asked for it all

Jeff Tweedy - Ashes Of American Flags Lyrics
The cash machine
Is blue and green
For a hundred in twenties
And a small service fee
I could spend three dollars
And sixty-three cents
On diet coca-cola
And unlit cigarettes
I wonder why
We listen to poets
When nobody...
