Favorite Lyrical Quote -- from Floyd or otherwise

you promised me the ending would be clear
you'd let me know when the time was now
don't let me know when you're opening the door
stab me in the dark, let me disappear
memories that flutter like bats out of hell
stab you from the city spires
life wasn't worth the balance
or the crumpled paper it was written on
don't let me know we're invisible
don't let me know we're invisible


hot cash days that you trailed around
cold, cold nights under chrome and glass
led me down a river of perfumed limbs
sent me to the streets with the good-time girls
don't let me know we're invisible
don't let me know we're invisible


we could dance, dance, dance through the fire
dance, dance, dance through the fire
feed me no lies
i don't know about you, i don't know about you
breathe through the years
i don't know about you, i don't know about you
bring me the disco king
i don't know about you, i don't know about you
dead or alive


bring me the disco king, bring me the disco king


spinoffs with those who slept like corpses
damp morning rays in the stiff, bad clubs
killing time in the seventies
smelling of love through the moist wind
don't let me know when you're opening the door
close me in the dark, let me disappear
soon there'll be nothing left of me
nothing left to release


dance, dance, dance through the fire
dance, dance, dance through the fire
feed me no lies
i don't know about you, i don't know about you
breathe through the years
i don't know about you, i don't know about you
bring me the disco king
i don't know about you, i don't know about you
dead or alive


bring me the disco king, bring me the disco king

"I was at a funeral the day I realized I wanted to spend my life with you."

(Who doesn't fall in love at a funeral???)

"Ashes and diamonds, foe and friend, we were all equal in the end."
--written by Roger Waters, from 'Two Suns in the Sunset' by Pink Floyd off The Final Cut (1983)

"Tie yourself to the mast my friend and the storm will end."
--written by Richard Ashcroft, from 'One Day' by The Verve off Urban Hymns (1997)

There was no time for pain
No energy for anger
The sightlessness of hatred slips away
Walking through winter streets alone
He stops and take a breath
With confidence and self-control

I look at the world and see no understanding
I'm waiting to find some sense of strength
I'm begging you from the bottom of my heart
To show me understanding

I need to live life
Like some people never will
So find me kindness
Find me beauty
Find me truth
When temptation brings me to my knees
And I lay here drained of strength
Show me kindness
Show me beauty
Show me truth

The way your heart sounds
makes all the difference
It's what decides if you'll endure the pain that we all feel
The way your heart beats
makes all the difference
In learning to live
Here before me is my soul
I'm learning to live
I won't give up
Till I've no more to give

Listening to the city
Whispering its violence
I set out watching from above
The 90s bring new questions
New solutions to be found
I fell in love to be let down

Once again we dance in the crowd
At times a step away
From a common fear that's all spread out
It won't listen to what you say
Once you're touched you stand alone
To face the bitter fight
Once I reached for love
And now I reach for life

Another chance to lift my life
Free the sensation in my heart
To ride the wings of dreams
Into changing horizons
It brings inner peace within my mind,
As I'm lifted from where I've spilt my life
I hear an innocent voice
I hear kindness, beauty and truth

The way your heart sounds
makes all the difference
It's what decides if you'll endure the pain that we all feel
The way your heart beats
makes all the difference
In learning to live
Spread before you is your soul
So forever hold the dreams within our hearts
Through nature's inflexible grace
I'm learning to live
