Samuel Butler

Life is like music, it must be composed by ear, feeling and instinct, not by rule. Nevertheless one had better know the rules, for they sometimes guide in doubtful cases, though not often.

Fundamental of Liar Chapter XXXV: Rules part 2

What’s the rule, when money could buy
What’s the rule, when power is absolute
What’s the rule, when feeling involved
What’s the rule, when pride is important
What’s the rule, when look affects
What’s the rule, when victory is a must
What’s the rule, when worlds are vain
What’s the rule, people don’t change
What’s the rule, when good is not always right
What’s the rule, freedom is misunderstood
What’s the rule, anger conquers
What’s the rule, past neglected
What’s the rule, crime that committed

What Music Means To Me

Ive Read Poems On Music Here There And Everywhere
All Of Them Make Me Stop To Stare
Non Of Them Explain How Much Music Means To Me
Why Is It So Hard For Everyone To See?

Music Is My Life, Music Is My Soul
If Anything It Is My One And Only Goal
For Someone To Be Able To See What I Feel
That One And Only Feeling No-one Can Steal

The Feeling As Free As A Flying Dove
The One Special Feeling, The Feeling Of Love

Fool

(words & music: per gessle)
Published by hiphappy
I was alone
I told my mouth to shot up cos I was talking to myself
Like I always do when Im stuck
Well, I was crying
You could be crying too
I was screaming throungh the windown, I keep missing you
And the tears came down from the sky
And the rain feel hard on my eyes
Now you know what I look like, Im feeling like a fool
I lose on my own, Im going back to school
And I will pray, hallelujah, youll be breaking every rule
And come back to stay, Im feeling like a fool
I really tried so hard to design my life
Theres a big black void in head like its been cut by a knife
Every time your name comes around this stupidity follows me down
Now you know what I look like, Im feeling like a fool
I thought I could swim Im drowning in the pool
And I will pray, hallelujah, youll be breaking every rule
And consider to stay, Im feeling like a fool
Please, come back to stay, Im feeling like a fool
Im feeling like a fool in my heart
Im feeling like a fool

Animal Instinct

(Music: DirkschneiderKaufmannWienhold - Words: DirkschneiderKaufmann)
I don't wanna be another retro-man
I don't wanna be no part of your plans
I don't wanna be no diamond king
I just wanna pull the detonation pin
I won't give up a life of sin
You'll never tame the beast within
You can't abuse what I've got in here
My animal instinct is what you fear
And I howl - and I prowl
I am a raptor in time
And I howl - and I prowl
I am unbroken - creature of the wild
I've got an animal instinct
I've got an animal instinct
I don't wanna lead nor even dominate
Not a top-dog leader that only devastates
You know I'm free and I stand so proud
My animal anger - I shout it aloud
[Bridge]
[Chorus]
Animal - animal - animal - animal - instinct
Animal - animal - animal - animal - instinct
[Chorus]

Step Up! ! ! !

can't believe you tell me it not up to you,
don't you know i wouldn't be in this mess,
if only it wasn't for you,
i have try and not place blame,
for the things i can no longer change,
but, help me along the way,
this is your fight as well as mine,
step up!
i had to even though i never wanted to,
there comes a day in our lives,
where we have to grow up and accept life challenges,
when are you going to face yours?
i'm doing all that i can,
just to keep moving forward,
so don't stop me now,
because you see me,
i don't back down from a fight,
i just say bring it! !
i know what i deserve,
and this here is not it,
i deserve better not get toss aside like yesterday trash,
i'm a human being with feeling,
my feeling don't rule me,
so don't think you're going to rule me,
i have a brain,
you want to know what it is telling me?
i rule my life not you,
i say when i had enough,
i will not let fear get the best of me,
just because it gotten the best of you,
because that just not who i am anymore.

Instinct

Pop
Standing on the borderline
Between joy and reason
Tending carefully my fire
Waiting for my season
I know who these people are
I know what they stand for
Corruptions built into this plan
Nothings under the other hand
Tricks and trials await the child
Instinct keeps me running
Running like a deer
Instinct keeps me running
Running through the grinning shadows
I have seen the sludgy beach
And the poisoned river
I have met the lordly rich
Theyre just getting stiffer
This whole place is like a maze
Or like some medusa
Let me out I cant accept
A certain read life story
Tricks and trials await the child
Instinct keeps me running
Running like a deer
Instinct keeps me running
Running where the sorrow bless me
Instinct keeps me running
Running like a moose
Instinct keeps me running
Running to keep one chance open
Marks on walls, the common outlet
Tell the truth and always will
Marks on wall destroy the thought
Of perfect sunny civilization
Tricks and trials await the child
Instinct keeps me running
Running like a deer
Instinct keeps me running
Running through the grinning shadows
Instinct keeps me running
Running like a bear
Instinct keeps me running
Running to keep one chance open
Instinct keeps me running
Running cause I dont believe it
Instinct keeps me running
Running through the bare emotion
Instinct keeps me running
Instinct keeps me running
Running
Im running, running, running, running

Let Music Embrace

Music is for any emotion
Music can read your mind
Sadness or sorrow
In music you can find

Whatever you are feeling
Let music embrace;
Let the pain run right through you
Let the tears run down your face

Music is your friend
It understands you the best
So when you’re feeling down
Put it to the test

With music there is
No right or wrong,
The lyrics are a story
The music is the song

Born To Rule

Lay down your arms this night
Surrender to the power
Embracing your metal heart
On your final walk through the snow
A hammer made of steel
From the river of blood
With magic, forged in flames
Delusions, a curse of the damned
What do you see?
Imaginary visions or reality
When you're free
Then you'll see that you are bound to rule
Rule - Born - Rule
We were Born to Rule
Rule - Born - Rule
We were Born to Rule
Born to Rule - Born to Rule
We're Born to Rule forever more
Born to Rule - Born to Rule
We're Born to Rule forever
The revolution forced us all to heed the final call
And if tomorrow never comes
Then we will strike the hammer down
Rule - Born - Rule
We were Born to Rule
Rule - Born - Rule
We were Born to Rule
Born to Rule - Born to Rule
We're Born to Rule forever more
Born to Rule - Born to Rule
We're Born to Rule forever
Forever, forever Rule!

Music

Can you feel the music,
As it calms your soul,
Music helps to keep us
on our feet.

Music is surely the soul
that connects within us all,
Nourishing and comforting us.

The beauty of soft melody
playing helps to relax our
mind and body and our
soul.

Variety of different music helps
us all to decide which rhythm our
soul wants for today.

Music helps us to blossom,
The same way as flowers
like a good tune or a sweet
lullaby.

Without music life would
have no nourishment to help
move us along,
life would feel dull.

Music fills the emptiness in
our hearts,
Spreading that joyful feeling.

Music has a way to always chase
away those dark clouds,
When feeling gloomy and sad,
Turn on that favorite song.

Music has come along way through
out history,
Nothing could never take away
the magic of music.

An Earnest Prayer to God

God, rule my tongue, my works, my thought;
God, rule my mind, body, and heart;
God, rule all gifts from You I got;
God, rule my will, forget-me-not.

God, rule all things, my every part;
God, rule my actions from the start;
God, rule my soul, guide it with art;
God, rule my life till I depart!

Surfers Rule

Its a genuine fact that the surfers rule
Its plastered on the walls all around the school now
(surfers rule, surfers rule)
Becoming just as common as a golden rule now
(surfers rule, surfers rule)
Take it or leave it but you better believe it
Surfers rule
They burnt it in the grass on the football field now
(surfers rule, surfers rule)
Just try to make them cool it and theyll never yield now
(surfers rule, surfers rule)
Take what youve heard now and go pass the word now
Surfers rule
Its a genuine fact that the surfers rule
A woody full of surfers pullin long side a wagon
(surfers rule, surfers rule)
The hodaddies sittin while the surfers are draggin
The surfers are winnin and they say as theyre grinnin
Surfers rule
Surfers rule
(four seasons you better believe it)
Surfers rule
(four seasons you better believe it)
Surfers rule
(four seasons you better believe it)
Surfers rule
(four seasons you better believe it)
Surfers rule
(four seasons you better believe it)
Surfers rule

Winds Blow Those Lows To Go

I want to choose my element,
As music.
And select you to be,
Within each lyric that's composed.

I feel you destined to reach clear highs.
After riding wild on those lows.
Refusing to look up,
At a cloudless sky...
Without clouding shadows.

I want to choose my element,
As music.
And select you to be,
Within each lyric that's composed.

I feel the light sparkle as you dance.
Romancing to enhance the environment.
As if you have kicked up gold dust,
To paint my dreary bouts...
In accepting rays of Sunshine.

I want to choose my element,
As music.
I do.
The chemistry would be so harmonic.
With melodies to skip in lush green meadows.

I want to choose my element,
As music.
And select you to be,
Within each lyric that's composed.

I feel you destined to reach clear highs.
After riding wild on those lows.
And those,
Sentimantal memories...
Your mind stays fixed to fill
With hopeful wishes to recapture.

I want to choose my element,
As music.
And select you to be,
Within each lyric that's composed.

I feel you destined to reach clear highs.
After riding wild on those lows.

Winds blow those lows...
To go!

Winds blow those lows...
To go!
To go!

Winds blow those lows...

To go!

The Filling That We Have

Written & composed: charlie smalls
Music: charlie smalls
Put your arms around me child,
Like when you bumped your shin;
Then youll know I love you now,
As I loved you then
Though you may be trying sometimes,
And Ill need you and youre not there;
You know I may get mad and turn away,
But you know that I still care
But you cannot ask for me,
Than can come from me;
I am older than you are,
And one day youll see
If I lose my patience with you,
And I suddenly start to scream;
Its only because I just want you to be
Everything I see in my dreams
Chorus :
And Id like to know its there,
The feeling that we have,
When you know that you can come running to me,
Whenever times are bad
Dont lose the feeling that we have
Dont lose the feeling that we have
Though youre growing older now,
And Im watching you grow;
I know I make you sad sometimes,
And I see your feelings show.
But one day Ill look around,
And you will be grown;
Youll be out in the world,
Such a pretty girl,
But youll be on your own
Chorus :
And Id like to know its there,
The feeling that we have;
Knowing that you can come to me
Whenever you are sad
Child, Id like to know its there,
The feel that we have-
Dont lose the feeling that we have.
Dont lose the feeling that we have

Amnesia - 6

AMNESIA - 6
esspeecee…22.09.09.

Natural Amnesia
Yields and builds
Huh Hush Sigh
By hoi polloi.

Clothed Amnesia
The drapet
Happy in being
Pseudo oblivious
Keeps in-built feeling
Sailing rowing rafting
Joyriding with
Not river in boat
But boat on river

Cloaking feeling
Zapping showing
Out side smearing
Attire of Amnesia.

With the feeling
Not in the feeling.

With the happening
Not in the happening.

With the grief
Not in the grief.

It is
The thumb rule
Golden rule
Trusted rule
Bottom line rule
To
Plunge in allness
Of Universe
With eternal Bliss.


Glory unto:
Cultured Amnesia
Nurtured Amnesia
Pampered Amnesia
Purported Amnesia
Engineered Amnesia
Self imposed Amnesia [SiA].

Tie, fly-high
With SiAmnesia! !

Animal Instinct

(words & music by giant, baum, kaye)
Dont ever take tour eyes off me
Not even for a minute
cause like a panther I might pounce
And that will be the limit
I can be sneaky, fast as a snake
I strike like a cobra, make no mistake
And baby youll be trapped, quick as a wink
Its animal instinct
Dont think that I wont pin you down
No matter how you plead it
Im like a lion whos been caged
And you are gonna meet it
Watch out Ill warn ya, sharp as a hawk
Im wild as a tiger, I prowl and I stalk
cause when a man feels thirst, he takes a drink
Its animal instinct
You better not be caught off guard
This wolf is on the search now
A leopard just cant change its spots
And Im about to lurch now
I roar like the jungle, I fight tooth and nail
I just gotta get you, youll fall without fail
Im ready for the kill, Im right on the brink
Its animal instinct
Its animal instinct, animal instinct
