[Misty Avich]

Hmm, I don't really go for lyrics as such. I go for the vibe and tune of the song, and also the background.

 

[LadyS]

Well, it's 3 a.m., I'm out here riding again
Through the wicked, winding streets of my world
I make a wrong turn, break it
Now I'm too far gone
I've got a siren on my tail and that ain't the fine I'm lookin' for.

I see a stairway so I follow it down
Into the belly of a whale where my secrets echo all around
You know me now, but to do better than that
You got to follow me
Boy, I'm trying to show you where I'm at

Hey pretty, don't you wanna take a ride with me
Through my world?
Hey pretty, don't you wanna kick and slide
Through my world?

I got a mind full of wicked designs
I got a non-stop hole in my head, imagination
I'm in a building that has 2000 floors
And when they all fall down
I think you know it's you they're fallin for

I can't forget I am my sole architect
I built the shadows here
I built the growlin' voice I fear
You add it up, but to do better than that
You got to follow me
Boy, I'm trying to show you where I'm at

 

[Kisa the tea]

Depends on when. It changes depending on what I've been listening to.
Currently
"Hoping one day a flower will bloom
Although there isn't a sprout in view
Because no matter how I try a flower won't grow in a monsoon"

 

[Judge]

What I consider to be the autistic anthem, for better and worse :

A winter's day
In a deep and dark
December
I am alone
Gazing from my window to the streets below
On a freshly fallen silent shroud of snow
I am a rock
I am an island

I've built walls
A fortress deep and mighty
That none may penetrate
I have no need of friendship, friendship causes pain
It's laughter and it's loving I disdain
I am a rock
I am an island

Don't talk of love
But I've heard the words before
It's sleeping in my memory
I won't disturb the slumber of feelings that have died
If I never loved I never would have cried
I am a rock
I am an island

I have my books
And my poetry to protect me
I am shielded in my armor
Hiding in my room, safe within my womb
I touch no one and no one touches me
I am a rock
I am an island

And a rock feels no pain
And an island never cries

 

[elgat0verde]

Depends on my mood a lot, some days some lyrics hit harder than others. Also, If i wrote all my favorite lyrics this would be a book.

Today this is the song that is hitting me hard because I am angry at people, moreso people that look down on me and treat me differently and most everyone in this shanty little dumb farming ignorant town.

My breakfast is straight out the medicine cabinet
A remedy for the aftermath of my habits
Sometimes it's the ones who try to help
That hurt the most

I feel like we're playing tug of war and I'm the rope
And i'm stretched to the limit but you keep on pulling it
I'm gonna lose my

Spoiler

god damned

mind
I'm gonna lose my mind

I wanna hide away in the back of a cave
In the top of a mountain
Where no one can hear me
And no one can see me
So I don't have to deal with them
And they don't have to deal with me

'Cause relationships are overrated
Maybe I'm just tired and jaded
But I'm sorry i just like myself
More than I like you

So call me anti-social
Call it

Spoiler

masturbation

Either way it's a solo operation
I'm just far more comfortable alone

It feels like apathy
Has gotten the best of me
Because I'm so tired of you talking my ear off
About all your problems I just can't fix
I don't appreciate
Unwanted company
Your constant chatter reminds me
Why I'd rather you leave me be

So call me anti-social
Call it

Spoiler

masturbation

Either way it's a solo operation
I'm just far more comfortable alone

Because people are ugly and people are hateful
Destructive and greedy we're proud and ungrateful
The world would be so much better off without us
So

Spoiler

swallow a bullet

Or a

Spoiler

handful of pills

We're all compost in training
There's graves left to fill
Let's distract ourselves to make us feel like we're not just mistakes
Let's distract ourselves to make us feel like we're not just mistakes

It seems that everybody always has a bone to pick
Or promise to break
Never again will I make that mistake
Of trusting anyone
Trusting anyone
Trusting anyone

This is my misanthropic confession
Human beings are a waste of breath
And don't think I exclude myself
I'm an

Spoiler

asshole

just like you

Because people are ugly and people are hateful
Destructive and greedy we're proud and ungrateful
The world would be so much better off without us.

[NoKipAr on the run]

"I saw your Reflection in a toilet fulla vomit water!

you think I never felt your hand on my head yelling "Call his Father"?

"

and

"I'm calling out to god

your little angel's falling down."

 

[All-Rounder]

I've got the dynamo of volition
The po-pole position
Automatic transmission with lo-ow emissions
I'm a brand new addition to the old edition
With the love unconditional

And I'm a drama abolitionist, damn
No opposition to my proposition
Half of a man, half magician
Half a politician holding the mic like ammunition
And my vision is as simple as light

Ain't no reason we should be in a fight, no demolition
Get to vote, get to say what you like, procreation
Compositions already written by themselves
Heck is for the people not believin' in go-shhh


Good job
Get 'em up way high
Gimme gimme that high five
Good time
Get 'em way down low
A-gimme gimme that low dough
Good god
Bring 'em back again
A-gimme gimme that high ten
You're the best definition of good intention-un-un


I do not answer the call if
I do not know who is calling
I guess the whole point of it all
Is that we never know really

I'm tryin' to keep with the Joneses
While waiting for Guns and the Roses
To finish what we all suppose is
Gonna be the ****, well sue me


Oh, fist like bumpin' and wrist lock
Twisting up a rizla
Kid Icarus on the transistor
Nintendo been givin' me the blister
I bend over take it in the kisser

My best friends are hittin' on my sister
Try to tell them that they still-a wish-a
'Cause she already got herself a mister
And besides that's gross to want to diss her
A-didi-di-di-di-didn't I say, didn't I say


You're the best definition of good versus evil


I do not keep up with statistics
I do not sleep without a mistress
I do not eat unless it's fixed with
Some kind of sweet like a licorice

My home is deep inside the mystics
I'm known to keep diggin' on existence
I'm holdin' in the heat like a fishstick
My phone it beeps because I missed it

I do not answer the call if
I do not know who is calling
I'm making no sense of it all
Say can I get a witness

I'm only a boy in a story
Just a hallucinatory
Trippin' on nothing there is
Living in the wilderness

With a tiger spot on my back
Living life of a cat
I just wanna relax here
And write another rap tune

Driving off on your blind man's bike
You can say just what you like
Oh, nothing can stop you, oh

You're the best, you're the best
You're the best, you're the best
You're the best, you're the best, you're the best

You're the best definition of good intention-un-un
You're the best definition of good intention
You're the best definition of good intention-un-un
You're the best around

 

[Captain Jigglypuff]

You with the sad eyes
Don't be discouraged, oh I realize
It's hard to take courage
In a world full of people
You can lose sight of it all
The darkness inside you
Can make you feel so small
Show me a smile then
Don't be unhappy
Can't remember when
I last saw you laughing
This world makes you crazy
And you've taken all you can bear
Just call me up
'Cause I will always be there
And I see your true colors
Shining through
I see your true colors
And that's why I love you
So don't be afraid to let them show
Your true colors
True colors are beautiful
I see your true colors
Shining through (true colors)
I see your true colors
And that's why I love you
So don't be afraid to let them show
Your true colors
True colors are beautiful (they're beautiful)
Like a rainbow
Oh oh oh oh oh like a rainbow
Ooh can't remember when
I last saw you laughing
Ooh oh oh oh
This world makes you crazy
And you've taken all you can bear
Just call me up
'Cause I will always be there
And I see your true colors
Shining through
I see your true colors
And that's why I love you
So don't be afraid (don't be afraid)
To let them show your true colors
True colors are beautiful (you're beautiful, oh)
Like a rainbow
Oh oh oh oh oh like a rainbow

Crosby Stills and Nash: Southern Cross
(all of it but this part particularly)

"When you see the Southern Cross for the first time
You understand now why you came this way
'Cause the truth you might be runnin' from is so small
But it's as big as the promise, the promise of a comin' day"

 

[Nervous Rex]

I like witty lyrics and turns of phrases. Here are some of my favorites.

"Along come a young girl
She's pretty as a prayerbook
Sweet as an apple on Christmas day
I said good gracious can this be my luck
If that's my prayerbook
Lord let us pray" - That Was Your Mother, Paul Simon

"She looked me over and I guess she thought I was all right
All right in a sort of a limited way For an off-night" - I Know What I Know, Paul Simon

"I was walking down the street
When I thought I heard this voice say
Say, "Ain't we walking down the same street together
On the very same day"
And I said "Hey senorita"
I said "That's astute"
I said "Why don't we get together
And call ourselves an institute?" - Gumboots, Paul Simon

"Oh flip, the light is turning orange
Coat ripped when I caught it in the door hinge
I slip when the lady in the four-inch
Bought it in a store in Germany" - Four Seconds, Barenaked Ladies

"Sleight of hand and twist of fate" - With or Without You, U2

 

[Tom]

Saw a monster in the mirror when I woke up today
A monster in my mirror but I did not run away
I did not shed a tear or hide beneath my bed
Though the monster looked at me and this is what he said

He said, "Wubba wubba wubba wubba woo woo woo"
Wubba wubba wubba and a doodly do"
He sang, "Wubba wubba wubba" so I sang it too
Do not wubba me or I will wubba you
Do not wubba me or I will wubba you

(Grover, The Monster in the Mirror Song)

 

[SusanLR]

Every time that I look in the mirror
All these lines on my face getting clearer
The past is gone
Oh, it went by like dusk to dawn
Isn't that the way?
Everybody's got their dues in life to pay,
I know nobody knows
Where it comes and where it goes
I know it's everybody's sin
You got to lose to know how to win
Half my life's in books' written pages
Storing facts learned from fools and from sages
You view the earth,
Sing with me, sing for a year
Sing for the laughter, and sing for the tear
Sing with me, if it's just for today
Maybe tomorrow, the good Lord will take you away

 

[DaisyRose]

I wear my sunglasses at night
So I can, so I can
Watch you weave then breathe your story lines

-Corey Hart, Sunglasses at Night

 

[Nervous Rex]

Every time that I look in the mirror
All these lines on my face getting clearer
The past is gone
Oh, it went by like dusk to dawn
Isn't that the way?
Everybody's got their dues in life to pay,
I know nobody knows
Where it comes and where it goes
I know it's everybody's sin
You got to lose to know how to win
Half my life's in books' written pages
Storing facts learned from fools and from sages
You view the earth,
Sing with me, sing for a year
Sing for the laughter, and sing for the tear
Sing with me, if it's just for today
Maybe tomorrow, the good Lord will take you away

I love that Steven Tyler could scream this at the top of his lungs and still be on key.

So take these broken wings and learn to fly again. Learn to be so free.

"With rings on her fingers and bells on her toes, and a bomber above her wherever she goes."
"Lately, it occurs to me, what a long, strange trip it's been."
"The Lord can make you tumble, the Lord can make you turn, The Lord can make you overflow, but the Lord can't make you burn." - a reference to the Cuyahoga river fire being uninsured.

What I consider to be the autistic anthem, for better and worse :
