The Smashing Pumpkins
For those of you who don't know, this band reigns supreme in the land of JoJo.  This is just a small tribute to my favorite band.  I am trying my best to honor them by posting some of their most inspiring lyrics here, well, inspiring to me at least.  I hope you enjoy them as much as I do.

Fool enough to almost be it
Cool enough to not quite see it
Doomed
Pick your pockets full of sorrow
And run away with me tomorrow
June
We'll try and ease the pain
But somehow we'll feel the same
Well, no one knows
Where our secrets go
I send a heart to all my dearies
When your life is so, so dreary
Dream
I'm rumored to the straight and narrow
While the harlots of my perils
Scream
And I fail
But when I can, I will
Try to understand
That when I can, I will
Mother weep the years I'm missing
All our time can't be given
Back
Shut my mouth and strike the demons
That cursed you and your reasons
Out of hand and out of season
Out of love and out of feeling
So bad
When I can, I will
Words defy the plans
When I can, I will
Fool enough to almost be it
And cool enough to not quite see it
And old enough to always feel this
Always old, I'll always feel this
No more promise no more sorrow
No longer will I follow
Can anybody hear me
I just want to be me
When I can, I will
Try to understand
That when I can, I will
Muzzle

I fear that I am ordinary, just like everyone
To lie here and die among the sorrows
Adrift among the days
For everything I ever said
And everything I've ever done is gone and dead
As all things must surely have to end
And great loves will one day have to part
I know that I am meant for this world
My life has been extraordinary
Blessed and cursed and won
Time heals but I'm forever broken
By and by the way...
Have you ever heard the words
I'm singing in these songs?
it's for the girl I've loved all along
can a taste of love be so wrong
as all things must surely have to end
and great loves will one day have to part
I know that I am meant for this world
and in my mind as I was floating
far above the clouds
some children laughed I'd fall for certain
for thinking that I'd live forever
but I knew exactly where I was
and I knew the meaning of it all
and I knew the distance to the sun
and I knew the echo that is love
and I knew the secrets in your spires
and I knew the emptiness of youth
and I knew the solitude of heart
and I knew the murmurs of the soul
and the world is drawn into your hands
and the world is etched upon your heart
and the world so hard to understand
is the world you can't live without
and I knew the silence of the world
and I knew the silence of the world
and I knew the silence of the world
and I knew the silence of the world
and I knew the silence of the world
Thirty Three

Speak to me in a language I can hear
Humour me before I have to go
Deep in thought I forgive everyone
As the cluttered streets greet me once again
I know I can't be late, supper's waiting for me on the table
Tomorrow's just an excuse away
So I pull up my collar and face the cold, on my own
The earth laughs beneath my heavy feet
At the blasphemy in my old jangly walk
Steeple guide me to my heart and home
The sun is out and up and down again
I know I'll make it, love can last forever
Graceful swans of never topple to the earth
And you can make it last, forever you
You can make it last, forever you
And for a moment, I lose myself
Wrapped up in my pleasures of the world
I've journeyed here and there and back again
But in the same old haunts, I still find my friends
Mysteries not ready to reveal
Sympathies I'm ready to return
I'll make the effort, love can last forever
Graceful swans of never topple to the earth
Tomorrow's just an excuse
Tomorrow's just an excuse
And you can make it last, forever
You can make it last, forever you
Forever you

She always waits for someone
Someone who'll never leave
Reliving her decision
Her arms cover me
My couple, no one
To anyone believe
She always waits for someone
Someone, someone just like me
Jennifer
Jennifer Ever
Jennifer
Jennifer always tells me
Please don't be afraid
I only want to hold you
I only want you to stay
My couple, no one
To anyone believe
She always waits for someone
Someone, someone just like me
Jennifer
Jennifer Ever
Jennifer
Jennifer
Jennifer Ever
Jennifer
My couple, no one
To anyone believe
She always waits for someone
Someone, someone just like me

Crush

You wrap your arms around
A feeling that surrounds
Like liquid peppermint
Just taste the drinks that she served
And this feeling shivers down your spine
Love comes in colors I can't deny
All that matters is love, love, your love
You're sleeping in your bed
Just rest your weary head
Maybe you shouldn't care
Throw away those dreams and dare
And I wonder if it matters to me
Love comes in colors I can't deny
All that shimmers is love, love, your love
Your love
Your love
Well thats all for the present moment, but if I think of anymore I'll be sure to put them up.  If you're not too into the pumpkins thats cool, but if you are, well you're better than the people that aren't;)  You can go back now.
