The Seeker by the Who

Sometimes things don't make sense to me...High schoolers starting riots in Baltimore for what...Go to SCHOOL! "I learned to raise my voice in anger, Yeah but look at my face ain't this a smile..."

I looked under chairs
I looked under tables
I'm tryin to find the key
To fifty million fables

They call me the seeker
I been searchin low and high
I wont get to get what I'm after
Till the day I die

I asked Bobby Dylan
I asked the Beatles
I asked Timothy Leary
But he couldn't help me either

They call me the seeker
I been searchin low and high
I wont get to get what I'm after
Till the day I die

People tend to hate me
Cuz I never smile
As I ransack their homes
They wanna shake my hand

Focusing on nowhere 
Investigating miles
I'm a seeker I'm a really desperate man

I wont get to get what I'm after
Till the day I die

I learned to raise my voice in anger 
Yeah but look at my face ain't this a smile!!!

I'm happy when life's good and when its bad I cry
I got values but I don't know how or why

I'm lookin for me 
You're lookin for you
Were lookin at each other and we don't know what to do

They call me the seeker
I been searchin low and high
I wont get to get what I'm after
Till the day I die

Rise by Eddie Vedder

Love these lyrics! "Gonna rise up, find my direction magnetically..."

Such is the way of the world
You can never know
Just where to put all your faith
And how will it grow?

Gonna rise up 
Burning black holes in dark memories
Gonna rise up
Turning mistakes into gold...

Such is the passage of time
Too fast to fold
Suddenly swallowed by signs
Lo and behold

Gonna rise up
Find my direction magnetically
Gonna rise up
Throw down my ace in the hole

My Time by Janes Addiction

"Give me my time, Let me be! Outside..."

Yeah the rain came
I said hey buddy,
Buddy the streets is a snake skin
I belong
Out there walkin'
Nobody's stoppin' to bother me
They hide
Outside, the ceilings
Cryin -
Listen to the sound
Of the gutters runnin'
Wash this dirty town
All fronts and no backs
Give me my time
Let me be
Outside
Under the ceiling
Cryin'
Yeah, all over me
Cryin'
Yeah, all over me

And outside you know
I listen to the sounds
Of the gutters runnin
Wash that dirty town
All fronts and no backs
Give me my time
Let me be 
Outside
Under the ceilings
Cryin'
Yeah, all over me
Cryin'
Yeah, all over me

I Would For You by Janes Addiction

Patience is a virtue. "And if you wonder, What I would do, I would do anything, If I could, You know I would, I would, I would for you..."

Oh baby,
I'm so tired
The man... From the government
The man from the tax board
The man from the public school
The man owns the golden rule, yeah

I'm everybody's slave
I made you my slave
You said this I do for you
If it would help
To give the world back
What it gave
Then I would
I would
I would
I would
I would for you
I would for you

You say my eyes
Are crazy eyes
Sometimes they are
And so are you
And if you wonder
What I would do
I would do anything
If I could
You know I would
I would
I would
I would for you
I would for you
I would for you
I would for you
I would for you

Ring of Fire by Social Distortion

Love new versions of old songs:) Love learning new bands!!!!! "Love is a burning thing, And it makes a fiery ring, Bound by wild desire, I fell into a ring of fire...."

Love is a burning thing
And it makes a fiery ring.
Bound by wild desire
I fell into a ring of fire.

I fell into a burning ring of fire,
I went down, down, down as the flames went higher
And it burns, burns, burns,
The ring of fire, the ring of fire.

The taste of love is sweet
When hearts like ours meet.
I fell for you like a child,
Oh, but the fire went wild.

I fell into a burning ring of fire,
I went down, down, down as the flames went higher
And it burns, burns, burns,
The ring of fire, the ring of fire.

I fell into a burning ring of fire,
I went down, down, down as the flames went higher
And it burns, burns, burns,
The ring of fire, the ring of fire.

And it burns, burns, burns,
The ring of fire, the ring of fire,
The ring of fire, the ring of fire.
