song of the moment - the wind

song of the moment

the wind

cat stevens (yusuf islam)

i listen to the wind

to the wind of my soul

where i'll end up well i think,

only god really knows

i've sat upon the setting sun

but never, never never never

i never wanted water once

no, never, never, never

i listen to my words but

they fall far below

i let my music take me where

my heart wants to go

i swam upon the devil's lake

but never, never never never

i'll never make the same mistake

no, never, never, never

da da da da, da da da da
da da da da-da da

i don't know if i can yell any louder
how many time have i kicked you outta here?
or said something insulting?
da da da da-da
i can be so mean when i wanna be
i am capable of really anything
i can cut you into pieces
when my heart is....broken

da da da-da da
please don't leave me
please don't leave me
i always say how i don't need you
but it's always gonna come right back to this
please, don't leave me

how did i become so obnoxious?
what is it with you that makes me act like this?
i've never been this nasty
can't you tell that this is all just a contest?
the one that wins will be the one that hits the hardest
but baby i don't mean it
i mean it, i promise

da da da-da da
please don't leave me
da da da-da da
please don't leave me
da da da-da da
i always say how i don't need you
but it's always gonna come right back to this
please, don't leave me

i forgot to say out loud how beautiful you really are to me
i can't be without, you're my perfect little punching bag
and i need you, i'm sorry.

da da da da, da da da da
da da da da-da da
please, please don't leave me

baby please don't leave me
no, don't leave me
please don't leave me no no no
you say i don't need you but it's always gonna come right back,
it's gonna come right back to this.
please, don't leave me.
no.
no, don't leave me
please don't leave me, oh no no no.
i always say how i don't need you
but it's always gonna come right back to this
please, please don't leave me

please, please don't leave me

Better vocals in the official music video, obviously, but that one disturbs the fuck out of me, down to my very core (yes, somehow fuck has managed to be disturbed out of my core - come to think of it, i'm not actually sure how it got all the way down there in the first place), especially the dolls, what the fuck was up with the dolls?!!!! So I used to just put the video on, and either scroll down, or minimize the window, cuz the song kicks ass, but the video scares me (I'm weird about dolls and face paint).

Here's another one I like

I heard her say once in an interview that pain was her fuel (or motivation, or something) and that she was useless when she was happy. I dunno about useless, but she's a fuckin genius when she's sad. I just get blithering, or laconic, or a strange mixture of the two (it's not pretty) (or all that coherent).

(the video in the link is better than the one posted, but it couldn't be embedded, so i had to make due - deal with it)

her green plastic watering can
for her fake chinese rubber plant
in the fake plastic earth
that she bought from a rubber man
in a town full of rubber plans
to get rid of itself
it wears her out, it wears her out
it wears her out, it wears her out

she lives with a broken man
a cracked polystyrene man
who just crumbles and burns
he used to do surgery
for girls in the eighties
but gravity always wins
and it wears him out, it wears him out
it wears him out, it wears...

she looks like the real thing
she tastes like the real thing
my fake plastic love
but i can't help the feeling
i could blow through the ceiling
if i just turn and run
and it wears me out, it wears me out
it wears me out, it wears me out

if i could be who you wanted
if i could be who you wanted
all the time, all the time

two, three, four

have you ever seen a one trick pony in the field so happy and free

if you've ever seen a one trick pony then you've seen me

have you ever seen a one legged dog makin' his way down the street

if you've ever seen a one legged dog then you've seen me

(then you've seen me) i come and stand at every door

(then you've seen me) i always leave with less than i had before

(then you've seen me) bet i can make you smile when the blood it hits the floor

tell me friend can you ask for anything more

tell me can you ask for anything more

have you ever seen a scarecrow filled with nothing but dust and weeds

if you've ever seen that scarecrow then you've seen me

have you ever seen a one armed man punchin' at nothing but the breeze

if you've ever seen a one armed man then you've seen me

(then you've seen me) i come and stand at every door

(then you've seen me) i always leave with less than i had before

(then you've seen me) bet i can make you smile when the blood it hits the floor

tell me friend can you ask for anything more

tell me can you ask for anything more

these things that have comforted me i drive away (anything more)

this place that is my home i cannot stay (anything more)

my only faith is in the broken bones and bruises i display

have you ever seen a one legged man tryin' to dance his way free

if you've ever seen a one legged man then you've seen me

Bet I can make you smile when the blood it hits the floor…
