How Long Do I Have To Wait For You? - Sharon Jones & The Dap-Kings
How long do I have to wait for you, honey?
Before a girl like me can move on
Ooh, baby, tell me
How long do I have to wait for you honey?
Before I can say that you're gone

Every hour seems like a day
And every day is like a year
And every week is an eternity
Well, I get lonely, baby, when you're not here

Ooh, baby, tell me
How long do I have to wait for you, honey?
Before a girl like me can move on
Ooh, baby, tell me
How long do I have to wait for you, honey?
Before I can say that you're gone

Won't you let me know, yeah?
I'm in an awful state, baby
You said you loved me so
But I just don't know how long I can wait
How long do I have to wait for you, honey?
Before I can say that you're gone

I asked your mama, I asked your papa
Your friends, your preacher and your boss
No one knows where you're going to, baby
Or if you're coming back to me
Or we're together or are we lost

Ooh, baby, tell me
How long do I have to wait for you, honey?
Before a girl like me can move on
Ooh, baby, tell me
How long do I have to wait for you, honey?
Before I can say that you're gone

Won't you let me know, yeah?
I'm in an awful state, baby
You said you loved me so
But I just don't know how long I can wait

Oh, oh baby, tell me
How long do I have to wait for you, honey?
Before a girl like me can move on
Baby, how long do I have to wait for you, honey?
Before I can say that you're gone, ah

How long do I have to wait for you, honey?
Before a girl like me can move on
Baby, how long do I have to wait for you, honey?
Before I can say that you're gone, yeah
How long, baby tell me, how long?

I only needed a soul
To share to kiss and to hold
But only found this dark hole
Someone unbearably cold

And though I tried to reach through
tried to see what makes you you
You closed all windows and doors
Saw me for only my flaws

They say that time heals all wounds
I can't say from what I've
seen that its true
Regrets and pain follow you
Until there's no one to help

and nothing you can do

And if my dreams would come true
I'd be there looking at you
And as you start to undo
I'll hold a mirror to you

My only solace is this
You'll never feel such a kiss
You'll never know what you missed
You'll never experience true bliss

Lyrics:
Setting sun can't shine, now you're gone
Inside sleeping, my heart beating
You know that you tried to hide it
Shouldn't you have said what you meant? Oh...

Time heals, time congeals around us
Endless hours of wasted moments
Understanding, not demanding
Your eyes tell what you feel inside

Setting sun can't shine, now you're gone
Inside sleeping, my heart beating
You know that you tried to hide it
Shouldn't you have said what you meant? Oh...

YOU LIED!

--- LYRICS ---

On the turning away
From the pale and downtrodden
And the words they say
Which we won't understand
"Don't accept that what's happening
Is just a case of others' suffering
Or you'll find that you're joining in
The turning away"

It's a sin that somehow
Light is changing to shadow
And casting it's shroud
Over all we have known
Unaware how the ranks have grown
Driven on by a heart of stone
We could find that we're all alone
In the dream of the proud

On the wings of the night
As the daytime is stirring
Where the speechless unite
In a silent accord
Using words you will find are strange
And mesmerized as they light the flame
Feel the new wind of change
On the wings of the night

No more turning away
From the weak and the weary
No more turning away
From the coldness inside
Just a world that we all must share
It's not enough just to stand and stare
Is it only a dream that there'll be
No more turning away?

Well, I will.. sorry about that :)
No worries. The thread is starting to get long which is great. I just kind of set rules that have semi gotten broken already before lol. we just try to keep it to a song a day and post lyrics with so that people can dissect or talk about what they like about the lyrics so much. Or you don't have to say anything about it at all and just post song with lyrics :) Again thanks for posting the more the merrier on this thread!

I know there is not much in the lyrics to interrupt here. But to me just the section of "They don't need to. They'll scare it's true. I think of demons for you" always makes me think of my own mental health problems and sometimes how I take on these dark thoughts and internalize them so that other people don't have to see them or deal with them.


I, I, I think of demons
They never kill
I, I, I think of demons
They never will

They don't need to
They'll scare it's true
I think of demons for you

First, first, first I read demon
With horns with black tips
First, first, first I read demon
With horns with black tips

Fangs in the dazed moonlight
Blood never touches my lips
I read demon never sips

Lucifer, Lucifer, Lucifer, Lucifer
Who's been waiting on you
Lucifer, Lucifer, Lucifer, Lucifer
Who's been waiting on you

Demon eyes and demons do
Wait until you come through
To be our leader
We've been waiting on you
For you

They don't need to
They'll scare it's true
I think of demons for you

Talking to my counselor and telling her what I've been through has just seemed to make her freak out that I have a super serious situation. Honestly, yeah. I panic. Yeah, I don't want to go to work and would rather stay at home. Does that mean that I destroy my life because of it? No. And yes, I'm not 'normal' according to society but no one is. I still go to work and look after myself even if I have 'down' days.

Whenever someone is like "oh my god you must be traumatized that such and such happened!!! How horrible!!!" I just want to face palm myself. Anyone that hasn't been there and dealt with it themselves is going to make it more dramatic than it actually is. If they had, I think they'd be thinking that I did pretty damn good.

This song is really what I feel like telling people that feel sorry for me with what I've been through. Yeah, it's shitty. Yeah, I have to live with it. But you know what? These experiences have shaped me into the person that I am. All things considered, I think I'm pretty awesome.

I Am – Awolnation
These friends of mine will come and go
I’m the first to leave and last to know
I’ll be swimming in a face of flames
For these friends of mine I’ve overpaid
And I guess I wanted, I guess I wanted
I just want you to know

All of these things made me who I am
Maybe all of these things made me who I am
Maybe all of these things made me who I am
And I am
Only looking up when my head’s down
All of these things made me who I am
Maybe all of these things made me who I am
Maybe all of these things made me who I am
And I am
Only looking up when my head’s down

Veins are glistening
So thanks a lot for listening
I guess I wanted, I guess I wanted
I just want you to know

All of these things made me who I am
Maybe all of these things made me who I am
Maybe all of these things made me who I am
And I am
Only looking up when my head’s down
All of these things made me who I am
Maybe all of these things made me who I am
Maybe all of these things made me who I am
And I am
Only looking up when my head’s down

Well I guess I wanted, I guess I wanted
I just want you to know

Yeah! Yeah! Ooh someone left the lights on
Yeah! Yeah! Ooh someone left the lights on
Yeah! Yeah! Ooh someone left the lights on
Yeah! Yeah! Ooh someone left the lights on

All of these things made me who I am
Maybe all of these things made me who I am
Maybe all of these things made me who I am
And I am
Only looking up when my head’s down
All of these things made me who I am
Maybe all of these things made me who I am
Maybe all of these things made me who I am
And I am
Only looking up when my head’s down

Well I guess I wanted, I guess I wanted
I just want you to know

Hypnotized from the day you were born
Hypnotized from the day you were born

That is really great to hear :) I use to feel that way sometimes :/ "feeling I'm pretty awesome" because of what I have gone through and the paths it had lead me or rather the person it has made me become. But right now I am so far removed from that, I hope to get there again some day. Thanks for sharing *hug

Yeah, I had to be reminded by talking about a lot of the shit that I've been through. I had forgotten myself. After the counseling session I felt weird. When I got home and thought about it more, I was actually quite impressed that I've handled all of that crap in my life as well as I have up until this point. Made me feel capable.

One song that I can't help but start singing to, almost every time.
Summertime Sadness – Lana Del Ray
Kiss me hard before you go
Summertime sadness
I just wanted you to know
That, baby, you're the best

I got my red dress on tonight
Dancing in the dark in the pale moonlight
Done my hair up real big beauty queen style
High heels off, I'm feeling alive

Oh, my God, I feel it in the air
Telephone wires above are sizzling like a snare
Honey, I'm on fire, I feel it everywhere
Nothing scares me anymore

(1, 2, 3, 4)

Kiss me hard before you go
Summertime sadness
I just wanted you to know
That, baby, you're the best

I got that summertime, summertime sadness
S-s-summertime, summertime sadness
Got that summertime, summertime sadness
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

I'm feelin' electric tonight
Cruising down the coast goin' 'bout 99
Got my bad baby by my heavenly side
I know if I go, I'll die happy tonight

Oh, my God, I feel it in the air
Telephone wires above are sizzling like a snare
Honey, I'm on fire, I feel it everywhere
Nothing scares me anymore

(1, 2, 3, 4)

Kiss me hard before you go
Summertime sadness
I just wanted you to know
That, baby, you're the best

I got that summertime, summertime sadness
S-s-summertime, summertime sadness
Got that summertime, summertime sadness
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

Think I'll miss you forever
Like the stars miss the sun in the morning sky
Later's better than never
Even if you're gone I'm gonna drive (drive, drive)

I got that summertime, summertime sadness
S-s-summertime, summertime sadness
Got that summertime, summertime sadness
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

Kiss me hard before you go
Summertime sadness
I just wanted you to know
That, baby, you're the best

I got that summertime, summertime sadness
S-s-summertime, summertime sadness
Got that summertime, summertime sadness
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

That night, I watched people fucking on my computer
Nobody can see me looking anyway
It's late
And everything turns into a kind of dirty
My skin starts breaking like LCD

I feel a desire
One I don't know, one I don't own
I'm free

I turn off the light and dress myself in silver and gold
I go out into the edge of the city
Tread on my twigs that are not yet burning
The weight of my boots makes them break
And smoke comes out of be-be-be-ne-ne-neath the ba-ba-bark

Like a burnt-out match!
Like sex without the body!
Like smoke rings from my pussy!

A night vision; bodies turned soft like newborn jellyfish
Mushrooms light MacBook’s, blind bodies with empty sockets
I stare back at my gaze that belongs to your body

I ask "is there nothing but seen or seen
Is there nothing serve nothing
Is there nothing and nothing?"
I'm free

I take off my face and torso
Live bare and barely
I go out into the haze of the city
Tread on my twigs and feel them break, yeah

But I'm looking for something else
There has to be more to burning
I'm losing myself
More to burning and sex and God

Oslo Oedipus, Oslo Oedipus
I am Oslo Oedipus
Tearing my eyes in and out and
In and out and in and out and
In and out and in and out and
In and out and in and out and
In and out of face!

Lyrics:

(Brain Damage)

The Lunatic...Is On The Grass
The Lunatic...Is On The Grass
Remembering Games..And Daisy Chains And Laughs
Got To Keep The Loonies On The Path

The Lunatic...Is In The Hall
The Lunatics...Are In My Hall
The Paper Holds Their Folded Faces To The Floor
And Every Day...The Paper Boy Brings More

And If The Dam Breaks Open Many Years To Soon
And If There Is No Room Upon The Hill
And If Your Head Explodes With Dark Forbodings Too
I'll See You On The Dark Side Of The Moon

The Lunatic Is In My Head
The Lunatic Is In My Head
You Raise The Blade...You Make The Change
You Re-arrange Me 'Till I'm Sane

You Look The Door
And Throw Away The Key
There's Someone In My Head...But It's Not Me

And If The Cloud Bursts...Thunder In You Ear
You Shout And No One Seems To Hear
And If The Band You're In Starts Playing Different Tunes
I'll See You On The Dark Side Of The Moon

(Eclipse)

All That You Touch
All That You See
All That You Taste
All You Feel

All That You Love
All That You Hate
All You Distrust
All You Save

All That You Give
All That You Deal
All That You Buy
Beg, Borrow Or Steal

All You Create
All You Destroy
All That You Do
All That You Say

All That You Eat
Everyone You Meet
All That You Slight
Everyone You Fight

All That Is Now
All That Is Gone
All That's To Come

And Everything Under The Sun Is In Tune
But The Sun Is Eclipsed By The Moon

There was this video store that carried these series of DVD's which was just a collection of old PSA's so this is one of my favorite fan videos because I had seen a few of these before even seeing this fan video. My all time favorite PSA in here is the guy with the bloody mouth holding the bottle of beer. The "warning" was that these youths to drunk to make logical choices that they decided a quicker way to get a beer bottle open was to just smash the end and drink it that way. Hence the bloody mouth. I probably spent a good month going through a bunch of these out dated absurd PSA's I really got a kick out of them.

I do not condone the use of drugs lol Remember real winners don't do drugs!


My friends turn me on
I live for drugs


I get drugs free, I live for drugs...
I get drugs free, my friends turn me on
I can’t afford it, I would never buy drugs
I get drugs free


Here where I will sit alone lost
Here I will dream, why give me a drink?
I need to think now!
I’ve got to rid my stinking brain...

Just lately, I freaked out very, very badly
Just lately, I freaked out on acid


Black boots, highway broads
Dope forever, forever loaded

It’s too bad I need time to sleep
Forget my problems before I wake
And it’s time to go on, so on!
Be content and nothing less

I get drugs free, I live for drugs

Here where I will sit alone lost
Here I will dream, why give me a drink?
I need to think now!
I've got to rid my stinking brain...
Of aches, knives, homeless people, promises, knocking at the door

My friends turn me on
I freaked out very, very badly
I live for drugs
