Paul Weller: Brand New Start

I'm gonna clear out my head
I'm gonna get myself straight
I know it's never too late
To make a brand new start

I'm gonna kick down the door
I'm gonna get myself in
I'm gonna fix up the yard
And not fall back again

I'm gonna clean up my earth
And build a heaven onthe ground
Not something distant or unfound
But something real to me
But something real to me

All that I can I can be
All that I am I CAN see
All that is mine is in my hands
So to myself I call

There's somewhere else I should be
There's someone else I CAN see
There's something more I can find
It's only up to me

I'm gonna clean up my earth
And build a heaven onthe ground
Not something distant on a cloud
But something real to me
But something real to me

I'm gonna clear out my head
I'm gonna get myself straight
I KNOW it's never too late
To make a brand new start
To make a brand new start
To make a brand new start

Eels: Not Ready Yet

there's a world outside
and i know 'cause i've heard talk
in my sweetest dream
i would go out for a walk

but i don't think i'm ready yet
i'm not feeling up to it now
just not that steady yet
and i don't need you telling me how

there's some happiness
and my stone face cracks again
maybe sometime sooner or later

but i don't think i'm ready yet
i'm not feeling up to it now
just not that steady yet
and i don't need you telling me how

so if i leave my room
don't you tell me to lighten up
maybe sometime sooner or later

but i don't think i'm ready yet
i'm not feeling up to it now
just not that steady yet
and i don't need you telling me how

Ummm.....I don't think any of the songs I put up are strictly about SP but they all have relevance in some way to me. Anyway I could go on so I'll just finish with a verse from Transmission by Joy Division, the final two lines kinda sum up my life pretty well:

And we would go on as though nothing was wrong.
And hide from these days we remained all alone.
Staying in the same place, just staying out the time.
Touching from a distance,
Further all the time.

Maybe we should start our own band Smile

Now we just need to decide who will play what and most importantly who will be our lead singer Very Happy

Try listening to some Travis. Especially theie album ' the invisible band'

Blur - Coffee & TV

Do you feel like a chain-store
practically flored
One of many zeros
kicked around bored
Your ears are full, but you're empty
holding out your heart
to people who never really
care how you are

Chorus:
So give me coffee and TV
Peacefully
I've seen so much, I'm going blind
And I'm brain-dead virtually
Sociability
is hard enough for me
take me away from this big bad world
and agree to marry me
so we can start over again.

Do you go to the country
it isn't very far
There's people there who'll hurt you
'cos of who you are
your ears are full of their language
there's wisdom there you're sure
'till the words start swirling/slurring
and you can't find the door[/b]

oooh... I don't know if this really fits exactly, but it is a song about hopelessness- how I feel sometimes- but luckily I always pull myself out. It's free flow thought lyrics, I guess, by Skinny Puppy- Smothered Hope:

withered rope you hang what's empty can't remain to put it simply
in time cry the hollow words to sing with false disguise
smothered hope fly from sorrow for a new divine tomorrow
i just don't want to know anymore
life shifts up and down everybody knows it's wrong
why don't you care? now do it seem fair?
it's not in the rhyme or reason
so it goes with every season crawl to top fall through bottom
first hand love is really rotten
slice of life find what's plenty inch towards a sanctuary
light with me inside the womb
i know everyone everybody knows it's me [i dont know about that Wink

]it's my voice, my voice cries out obscenity
sightless eye regard my past sometimes it should
i just don't want to know anymore.
