Valentine’s Day

By Marilyn Manson

 

She was the color of tv,

Her mouth curled under like a metal snake
Although holy wood was sad,

They'd remember this as valentine's day

Flies are waiting
In the shadow of the valley of death
In the shadow of the valley of death

Slit our wrists and send us to heaven

The first flower after the flood
I saw that pregnant girl today

She didn't know that it was dead inside
Even though it was alive

Some of us are really born to die

Coma Black

By Marilyn Manson

 

(a) eden eye

my mouth was a crib and it was growing lies

i didn't know what love was on that day

my heart's a tiny bloodclot,

i picked at it

it never heals

it never goes away 

i burned all the good things in the eden eye

we were too dumb to run, too dead to die 

this was never my world,

you took the angel away

i'd kill myself to make everybody pay

i would have told her then,

she was the only thing that i could love in this dying world

but the simple word "love" itself
already died and went away

 

(b) the apple of discord

her heart’s a bloodstained egg

we didn’t handle with care

it’s broken and bleeding

and we can never repair

Road Signs and Rock Songs

By The Ataris

 

postcards on the floor
but this pen can't write loneliness no more.
waking up all alone
on the opposite side of the coast.
 
I'm committed to insecurity and you.
and love is overrated.
it leaves you devastated
heart ripped in two
 
roadside state of mind
boulevard of broken dreams washed out this time
after time I was lost and looking
but knew I'd never find
what is mine in a world that's so unkind.
 
the only things I know are
road signs and rock songs and lonely hotel rooms.
but still I need you here, what’s new?
 
it's 6am.  las vegas doesn't look so cool
once the sun come up.
I draw the blinds and I dream of you.
 
I'm committed to all these memories of you.
and love is overrated.
it leaves you devastated.
love is overrated.

Falling in Love

By NOFX
 
Blast oxygen masks, smoke filled cabin
Depressurize, don’t be afraid, hold on to me
We’re going down, but not our love
 
Death don’t seem so bad, cause I’m with you
My only love, so close your eyes
Kiss me one last time, we’re gonna die
But not our love, not our love

Monosyllabic Girl
By NOFX
 
I take her to the aquarium she says shark
I take her to the planetarium she says dark
I take her to the seaside
Where she likes to spin and twirl
She says sure and cool and yeah 
She’s my monosyllabic girl
 
I taker her to the university she says huh
I taker her our anniversary she says one
I take her to the jewelry store
I say diamonds she says pearl
Oh everyone knows I’m in love
Yeah everyone knows I’m in love 
With a monosyllabic girl

Every You, Every Me

By Placebo

 

Sucker love is heaven sent
You pucker up our passion's spent
My heart’s a tart your body's rent
My body's broken yours is bent

Carve your name into my arm
Instead of stressed I lie here charmed
Cuz there's nothing else to do
Every me and every you

Sucker love a box I choose
No other box I choose to use
Another love I would abuse
No circumstances could excuse

In the shape of things to come
Too much poison come undone
Cuz there's nothing else to do
Every me and every you
Every me and every you
Every Me...hee

Sucker love is known to swing
Prone to cling and waste these things
Pucker up for heaven’s sake
There's never been so much at stake

I serve my head up on a plate
It's only comfort, calling late
Cuz there's nothing else to do
Every me and every you
 
Like the naked leads the blind
I know I'm selfish, I'm unkind
Sucker love I always find
Someone to bruise and leave behind

All alone in space and time
There's nothing here but what here's mine
Something borrowed, something blue
Every me and every you

Je T’aime moi non plus

By Serge Gainsbourg and Jane Birkin

Je t’aime je t’aime
Oh oui je t’aime
- Moi non plus
- Oh mon amour
- Comme la vague irrésolue
Je vais, je vais et je viens
Entre tes reins
Je vais et je viens
Entre tes reins
Et je me retiens

- Je taime je taime
Oh oui je t
aime
- Moi non plus
- Oh mon amour
Tu es la vague, moi l
île nue
Tu vas, tu vas et tu viens
Entre mes reins
Tu vas et tu viens
Entre mes reins
Et je te rejoins

-                Je t’aime je t’aime
Oh oui je t’aime
- Moi non plus
- Oh mon amour
- L’amour physique est sans issue
Je vais je vais et je viens
Entre tes reins
Je vais et je viens
Je me retiens
- Non ! maintenant viens...<
