I GRIEVE IN STEREO
THE STEREO SOUNDS STRANGE

Bump, post some juicy words

i like the lyrics on Emily and and Only Skin better

Emily, they'll follow your lead by the letter
And I make this claim, and I'm not ashamed to say I know you better
What they've seen is just a beam of your sun that banishes winter
Let us go! Though we know it's a hopeless endeavor
The ties that bind, they are barbed and spined and hold us close forever

or this part which gives me goosebumps without fail:

But always up the mountainside you’re clambering
Groping blindly, hungry for anything;
Picking through your pocket linings —
Well, what is this?
Scrap of sassafras, eh Sisyphus?

I see the blossoms broke and wet after the rain
Little sister, he will be back again
I have washed a thousand spiders down the drain
Spiders’ ghosts hang, soaked and dangling
Silently from all the blooming cherry trees
In tiny nooses, safe from everyone —
Nothing but a nuisance; gone now, dead and done —
Be a woman. Be a woman

A heart that’s full up like a landfill
A job that slowly kills you
Bruises that won’t heal

You look so tired unhappy
Bring down the government
They don’t they don’t speak for us

I’ll take a quiet life
A handshake of carbon monoxide
No alarms and no surprises
No alarms and no surprises
No alarms and no surprises

Silent
Silent
This is my final fit
My final bellyache with

No Alarms and no surprises
No alarms and no surprises
No alarms and no surprises please

Such a pretty house and such a pretty garden
No alarms and no surprises
No alarms and no surprises
No alarms and no surprises please

Jennifer wrestled her friend playfully to the ground in front of the snow cone stand and began licking at the girl's eyeballs, as if they were sugar cubes. Their bodies convulsed and flailed with an almost seizure-like intensity. At times their pale limbs seeming to shift back and forth from one torso to the other. A crowd gathered almost immediately to watch these two girls tie and untie their bodies like a pair of pit vipers. They were confused, or concerned, or shocked, or aroused, or all of the above. But no one dared interfere with the performance. Jennifer's long ashen hair hung down concealing the girl's face like a curtain around a hospital bed. No one had any idea that the girl's eyes were revolving under her ruby tongue. "This is disgusting, it's pornography," exclaimed a pasty slug-like woman in a fur coat, vanilla ice-cream smeared across her double chin like a money shot. Countered a balding professor type in his mid-forties, his left hand stuffed crassly down the front of his pants, "No, no, no. This is beautiful. This is art."

All of Ys

Particularly:
Sooner or later you’ll bare your teeth
But for now
Just dance darling

lol fuck off

"Makeshift", she sings
In her native German
You try to understand what she's trying to say
She says, "You're only as good
As the words you understand"
And you, you don't understand a word

Tower of Babel
Swahili
It's all Greek to me
Bilingual
Double dutch
Gift of the gab
Gift of the gab

We give you firewater, you give us your land
"White man speak with forked tongue"
But it's too late now to start complaining
Too late

Monosyllabic
Hieroglyphic
Et cetera, et cetera
Tower of Babel
Swahili
It's all Greek to me
New lamps for old
New lamps for old

Rhubarb rhubarb, rhubarb rhubarb
Rhubarb rhubarb, rhubarb rhubarb

Was she told when she was young that pain would lead to pleasure?
Did she understand it when they said
That a man must break his back to earn his day of leisure?
Will she still believe it when he's dead?

The second one is more poetic and is probably better writing for sure, but the one I posted in the OP is very personal to me.

A beautiful face doesn't need to be made up
Even simplicity has the ability to kill
Someone promise they'll come back to me
I'll live my life on that promise
[Chorus]
I can't stop thinking how innocent they used to be
And what they became, slowly slowly

wasn't trying to disparage yours friend, the whole album is incredible

Yeah this line has been going through my head for years

>music has lyrics

I was born in this town
Live here my whole life
Probably come to die in this town
Live here my whole life
Never anything to do in this town
Live here my whole life
Never anything to do in this town
Live here my whole life
Probably learn to die in this town
Live here my whole life
Nothing to do, sit around at home
Sit around at home, stare at the walls
Stare at each other and wait till we die
Stare at each other and wait till we die
Probably come to die in this town
Live here my whole life
There's Kerosene around, something to do
There's Kerosene around, she's something to do
There's Kerosene around, she's something to do
There's Kerosene around, we'll find something to do
Kerosene around, she's something to do
Kerosene around, SET ME ON FIRE !!!!
Set me on fire, Kerosene
Set me on fire, Kerosene
Set me on fire, Kerosene
Set me on fire, Kerosene
SET ME ON FIRE !!!!!!

No I know, it's my favorite album ever. You can't pick a bad lyric from the whole thing.

best one in the thread so far

I talk to you every now and then
I never felt so alone again
I stop to think at a wishing well
My thoughts send me on a carousel

Here I am standing on my own
Not a motion from the telephone
I know not a reason why
Solitudes a reason to die

Just you wait and see
As school life is a
It is a woken dream
Aren't you feeling alone?

I guess it's just another
I guess it's just another
I guess it's just another night alone

Now as I walk down the street
I need a job just to sleep in sheets
Buying food every once in a while
But not enough to purchase a smile

A tank of gas is a treasure to me
I know now that nothing is free
I talk to you every now and then
I never felt so alone again

Just you wait and see
As school life is a
It is a woken dream
Aren't you feeling alone?

I guess it's just another
I guess it's just another
I guess it's just another night alone

lol

Sad preacher nailed upon the coloured door of time
Insane teacher be there reminded of the rhyme
There'll be no mutant enemy we shall certify
Political ends as sad remains will die
Reach out as forward tastes begin to enter you
I listened hard but could not see
Life tempo change out and inside me
The preacher trained in all to lose his name,
The teacher travels asking to be shown the same
In the end we'll agree, we'll accept, we'll imortalize
That the truth of the man maturing in his eyes
All complete in the sight of seeds of life with you

All those people
All those lives
Where are they now

Nice. that Moog is so wonderful.

Jagged jigsaw pieces
Tossed about the room
I saw my grandma sweeping
With her old straw broom
But she didn't know what she was doing
She could hardly understand
That she was really sweeping up
Pieces of a man

I saw my daddy meet the mailman
And I heard the mailman say
"Now don't you take this letter to heart now, Jimmy
Cause they've laid off nine others today"
But he didn't know what he was saying
He could hardly understand
That he was only talking to
Pieces of a man

I saw the thunder and heard the lightning
And felt the burden of his shame
And for some unknown reason
He never turned my way

Pieces of that letter
Were tossed about that room
And now I hear the sound of sirens
Come knifing through the gloom
But they don't know what they are doing
They could hardly understand
That they're only arresting
Pieces of a man

I saw him go to pieces
I saw him go to pieces
He was always such a good man
He was always such a strong, strong man
Yeah, I saw him go to pieces
I saw him go to pieces

IN MYYYY LIFE
I LOVE YOU MORE

What is it?

Obligatory

> Oh, what'll you do now, my blue-eyed son?
> Oh, what'll you do now, my darling young one?
> I'm a-goin' back out 'fore the rain starts a-fallin'
> I'll walk to the depths of the deepest black forest
> Where the people are many and their hands are all empty
> Where the pellets of poison are flooding their waters
> Where the home in the valley meets the damp dirty prison
> Where the executioner's face is always well-hidden
> Where hunger is ugly, where souls are forgotten
> Where black is the color, where none is the number
> And I'll tell it and think it and speak it and breathe it
> And reflect it from the mountain so all souls can see it
> Then I'll stand on the ocean until I start sinkin'
> But I'll know my song well before I start singin'
> And it's a hard, it's a hard, it's a hard, it's a hard
> It's a hard rain's a-gonna fall

I miss the old Kanye, straight from the 'Go Kanye
Chop up the soul Kanye, set on his goals Kanye
I hate the new Kanye, the bad mood Kanye
The always rude Kanye, spaz in the news Kanye
I miss the sweet Kanye, chop up the beats Kanye
I gotta to say at that time I'd like to meet Kanye
See I invented Kanye, it wasn't any Kanyes
And now I look and look around and there's so many Kanyes
I used to love Kanye, I used to love Kanye
I even had the pink polo, I thought I was Kanye
What if Kanye made a song about Kanye
Called "I Miss The Old Kanye, " man that would be so Kanye
That's all it was Kanye, we still love Kanye
And I love you like Kanye loves Kanye

No I know Cemetry Gates I meant what is the one that you replied to
I didn't make that clear
Also from your song - "A dreaded sunny day, so let's go where we're happy and I'll meet you at the cemetery gates" is my favorite line for sure. Relatable. What a good song.

great taste in joanna lyrics, that part in only skin is incredible

THE ONLY GIRL I'VE EVER LOOOOOOOVED

A crystal spoon
A pewter tankard
These words inscribed upon the base:
"HAPPY RETIREMENT BEST GRANDDAD IN THE WORLD"
A Toby jug filled to the brim with curtain hooks
A sheepskin rug discoloured with tobacco smoke
Within it's braids concealed a rank
Of plastic soldiers set to burst underfoot
Berwick in oils: a skiff on the swollen tweed
Cradling a false pearl
A ceramic seraph
With an ashtray for a brain
- and I don't care about these things
Why do they remain so clear while the faces of my loved ones disappear?

Based

My feet might fail me, my heart might ail me
The synagogues of Satan might accuse or jail me
Strip, crown, nail me, brimstone hail me
They might defeat the flesh but they could never ever kill me
They might can feel the music but could never ever feel me
To the lawyers, to the sheriffs, to the judges
To the debt holders and the law makers
Fuck you, sue me, bill me
That name on that birth certificate, that ain't the real me
The lies can't conceal me
The sun rise and the moon tides and the sky's gon' reveal me
My brain pours water out my tear ducts to heal me

OP lyrics are amazing only a few parts of only skin and the lonely nights part in cosmia can rival it for me

Kid A noises

I headed for home kinda early
The party wasn’t all that great
I saw my neighbor out crying on his front porch
I stopped to see what his deal was
I didn't catch much through the sobs
Something about a party and he didn’t go
I thought about it for a second
With the invite in my hands
I threw it down at his feet and I said:

You are invited
By anyone to do anything
You are invited for all time
You are so needed
If you really want to go
You are invited for all time
For all time

And take me disappearing through the smoke rings of my mind
Down the foggy ruins of time
Far past the frozen leaves
The haunted, frightened trees
Out to the windy beach
Far from the twisted reach
Of crazy sorrow
Yes, to dance beneath the diamond sky with one hand waving free
Silhouetted by the sea
Circled by the circus sands
With all memory and fate
Driven deep beneath the waves
Let me forget about today
Until tomorrow

Ocean quest upon me, shoreline fades away
The mighty men drifting night and day
The sea has tossed them, beast beheld their eyes
Ready the ships, now it's do or die

Forged of blackened steel, wields the iron hand
Voices loud as thunder, pillaging the land
Drone seeks mortal vision, pulse the silver steed
Riding out to conquer all humanity

I'm high on fire, heads are searing
Give with pain all thy hearing
Promised land never veering
I'm stoned again, reset bearing

seriously, it's probably the best ~50 seconds i've ever heard of anything

Mark Kozelek’s depressed romantic phase from the first few RHP albums saw him writing his best lyrics, even if they were pretentious a lot of the time
>we walked down the hill, I felt the coming on of the fading sun
>and I know for sure that you’ll never be the one
>it’s the forbidden moment that we live that fires our sad escape
>and holds passion more than words can say
I love this too

DEAD CUNT LIPS INCUBATE MY SHIT
MANGLE YOUR TWOT WHEN THE ACID FART HITS
I'M GONNA EAT YOUR ASS FLESH STRIP BY STRIP
ON THE PYRE OF YOUR SEVERED DICKS
I'M THE NEMESIS DRINKING BLOOD FROM YOUR DEAD CERVIX
JIZM ON YOUR SLOPPY SPHINCTER MEAT WHEN I PART YOUR BLOATED RED ASS LIPS
BROKEN PHALLUS JUICES POSTULATE IN A FLUX AT THE BURNING GATE
SHOWERING VOMIT IL TESTICULATE
DEPOSIT MY SEMEN IN YOUR BRAINS JUST TO STOP YOUR HEART RATE
MAKE YOUR DEAD ASS DEFECATE
NAIL A SEVERED PENIS TO YOUR ROTTEN CUNT LIPS
DRESS IT WITH YOUR SHIT SOAKED EYEBALLS COOK IT IN A BUCKET WITH YOUR VOMIT
FORCE IT DOWN THE THROAT
TIE A BARB WIRE NOOSE AROUND YOUR PENIS AND YOUR SCROTE
WATCH THE SEMEN CHOKE DRIPPIN ON YOUR CUNT LIPS
SEWN TO YOUR FACE SCREAM AS YOU WATCH YOUR GENITALS GET DEFACED
YOUR LABIA GET REPLACED WITH A DEAD GOAT ANUS
WORMS AND MAGGOTS
FEASTIN ON BLOOD AND PUS
RECTAL WALL INCISIONS STAPLE TO YOUR VAGINAL CUTS
FORCE YOU TO DEEPTHROAT RABID MUTTS
I'M GONNA MAKE YOU LICK SHIT FROM THE FOAMING BUTTS

Floating over the raging sea
How deep is the ocean?
