Modest Mouse - Bukowski
Woke up this morning and it seemed to me, that every night turns out to be A little more like Bukowski. And yeah, I know he's a pretty good read. But God who'd wanna be? God who'd wanna be such an A$shole? God who'd wanna be? God who'd wanna be such an A$shole?
Well we sat on the edge of the river, the crowd screamed, "Sacrifice the liver!" If God takes life, he's an Indian giver. So tell me now why, you'll tell me never. Who would wanna be? Who would wanna be such a control freak? Well who would wanna be? Who would wanna be such a control freak?
Well see what you wanna see. You should see it all. Well take what you want from me. You deserve it all. Nine times out of ten our hearts just get dissolved. Well I want a better place or just a better way to fall. But one time out of ten, everything is perfect for us all. Well I want a better place or just a better way to fall. Here we go!
If God controls the land and disease, keeps a watchful eye on me, If he's really so DAMN mighty, my problem is I can't see, well who would wanna be? Who would wanna be such a control freak? Well who would wanna be? Who would wanna be such a control freak?
Evil home stereo, what good songs do you know? Evil me, oh yeah I know, what good curves can you throw?
Well all that icing and all that cake, I can't make it to your wedding, but I'm sure I'll be at your wake. You were talk, talk, talk, talkin' in circles that day, when you get to the point make sure that I'm still awake, OK?
Went to bed and didn't see why every day turns out to be a little bit more like Bukowski. And yeah, I know he's a pretty good read. But God who'd wanna be? God who'd wanna be such an A$shole?

I really love these lyrics, and i really think that Jesse Michaels was the best lead singer ever. Thank you.
It's the beginning The ground is moist and it rained last night. Smells like smoke, and it smells so clean The sun is shining down like a friendly white light Here we go again.
Analyzed the world I was born into, but I never could understand Knew I never wanted to grow up if that meant being a "man" Dominating strict competition is the meaning of our lives Stomping on the weak keeps us the winner of the battle in our own minds.
Tensions in our lives that are destroying our minds Unite themselves together to make our consciousness blind, Conditioned to self interest with emotions locked away, If that's what they call normal, I'd rather be insane.
Relax yourself from giving what you want to do with your life Ease up from giving up things like the control of your own mind. If you never ask any question, then you're never gonna get no answer Always be wondering what do you want while you keep getting older faster . . .
Here we go again . . . Another test of manhood, Just when you thought you'd won. The more we keep competing, The more the battle has just begun.
-Operation Ivy, "Here We Go Again"

The Weakerthans - The Last One
You always stole all my last words. Here's no exception then, one more for me to send. And nothing happens in the end. I'm thinking of you less, more concerned... and more is less, I guess it doesn't matter now. Maybe we'll never go insane. You always said we would, sometimes I wished we could with you lying naked in the rain and singing Boney M, cutting down all our old friends. I talk to them again now. So here's the last one I have left. We fell a little deep, I watched you fall asleep. And nothing happens in the end, but I remember when I could remember when. Seems like a long time ago.

this has been my favourite song for the last month or so, so i'd like to share the beautiful lyrics
Pink Bullets
I was just bony hands as cold as a winter pole you held a warm stone out new flowing blood to hold oh what a contrast you were to the brutes in the halls my timid young fingers held a decent animal.
Over the ramparts you tossed the scent of your skin and some foreign flowers tied to a brick sweet as a song the years have been short but the days were long.
Cool of a temperate breeze from dark skies to wet grass we fell in a field it seems now a thousand summers passed when our kite lines first crossed we tied them into knots and to finally fly apart we had to cut them off.
Since then it's been a book you read in reverse so you understand less as the pages turn or a movie so crass and awkardly cast that even I could be the star.
I don't look back as much as a rule and all this way before murder was cool but your memory is here and I'd like it to stay warm light on a winter day.
Over the ramparts you tossed the scent of your skin and some foreign flowers tied to a brick sweet as a song the years have been short but the days go slowly by two loose kites falling from the sky drawn to the ground and an end to flight.

DeadDeadDeath- "Over-Analytical Bitches Get Staples, Son"
You tie your tongue to the branches of the highest tree In hopes to straighten your spine But the termites make quick work of your insides You're so cool... I'm sick of dressing your wounds "Yeah, i love that blue dress with the straps." Oh my, you say you caught a lion see us tigers are solidary animals who live and travel and hunt alone but shit, i think it better to sleep together tonight whats the point of buying a new knife, when you already have the dullest?
Their best song.
