Everyone's Gone to the Moon
Nina Simone
Streets full of people, all alone
Roads full of houses, never home
A church full of singing, out of tune
Everyone's gone to the moon
Eyes full of sorrow, never wet
Hands full of money, all in debt
Sun coming out in the middle of June
Everyone's gone to the moon
You see a long time ago, life had begun
Everyone went to the sun
Parks full of motors, painted green
Mouths full of chocolate-covered cream
Arms that can only lift a spoon
You see everyone's gone, everybody's gone
Everyone's gone to the moon
Everyone's gone to the moon
What will happen now?
Everyone's gone to the moon
There's nobody left
Everyone's gone to the moon

(16,066 posts)Welcome to my nightmare
I think you're gonna like it
I think you're gonna feel like you belong
A nocturnal vacation
Unnecessary sedation
You want to feel at home 'cause you belong
Welcome to my nightmare
Welcome to my breakdown
I hope I didn't scare you
That's just the way we are when we come down
We sweat and laugh and scream here
'cause life is just a dream here
You know inside you feel right at home here
Welcome to my breakdown
Whoa
You're welcome to my nightmare
Yeah
Welcome to my nightmare
I think

English Lyrics
Drop it low
The future is still covered by a veil
Cant see it yet
We live in violent times
This generation has withered
But it has been passed down to us
The result of closing our eyes,
Shutting our mouths
And throwing away our courage at evil
Just as youre seeing,
Just as you predicted
Things have been destroyed on this land
So we must start again slowly
I wont look for miracles anymore
Oracles that are written on sand
Just one sigh can destroy everything
Its already broken down, faith shakes
The word justice
Is only a word from the textbooks
The majority is dancing on the offbeat
When will the truth come again?
When will you look for me?
I cant explain hard this feeling
Feels like Im floating without gravity
If the bleak future is my inheritance
Ill break it apart and start again
If youre dreaming of a resurrection
If youre looking for chances
With a nice mask on, no
Now stop, drop it low
Please stop, drop it low
Now stop, drop it low
Please stop, drop it low
The stopped clock will go on its way
Just watch, Ill create a new world
Now stop, drop it low
Please stop, drop it low
Now stop, drop it low
Please stop, drop it low
Dont turn away anymore, its critical
Cuz itll become a poisonous indulgence
Even the dry land that rejection creates
Even this reality
Without a single shadow
For me to rest under
I wont, cant fight this feeling
Regretting that I had to do that back then
Like a river flowing through a door
That was once shut
Im finding my place
If youre dreaming of a resurrection
If youre looking for chances
With a nice mask on, no
Now stop, drop it low
Please stop, drop it low
Now stop, drop it low
Please stop, drop it low
The stopped clock will go on its way
Just watch, Ill create a new world
Now stop, drop it low
Please stop, drop it low
Now stop, drop it low
Please stop, drop it low
Its a more painful reality
But once you climb over this mountain
Youll reach it some day
Eveyones ocean where you can be happy
It started with candles
Emotion is not controllable, you dont!
Dont stop going towards your future
Dont go on a dangerous path
If you lose this chance
Now its too hard to handle
My first action to change the future is
My attitude
If youre dreaming of a resurrection
If youre looking for chances
With a nice mask on, no
(See your attitude)
Now stop, drop it low
Please stop, drop it low
Now stop, drop it low
Please stop, drop it low
The stopped clock will go on its way
Just watch, Ill create a new world
Now stop, drop it low
Please stop, drop it low
Now stop, drop it low
Please stop, drop it low
(Into the grave)
Now stop, drop it low
Please stop, drop it low
Now stop, drop it low
Please stop, drop it low
Now stop

(2,151 posts)And it's appropriate in a shitstorm
That amazing grace
Sort of passed you by
You wake up every day
And you start to cry
Yeah, you want to die
But you just can't quit
Let me break it on down:
It's the fucked up shit

(39,343 posts)As a boy I had a gig with a travelin' show
Way back in '63
We did a little pickin' for the soldier boys
Of General Bobby Lee
But when we got to Pennsylvania,
I knew there'd be a change
We caught up with some boys from Georgia
And I heard one of them say
Don't tell the band
The devil's on his way
Don't tell the band
Just let the music play
Later on I had a job pouring gin and rum
On the grand queen of the sea
We set out on our first transatlantic voyage
Headed for New York City
But when I felt that lady shudder
I knew there'd be a change
I saw the captain grab the first mate
And I thought I heard him say
Don't tell the band
The devil's on his way
Don't tell the band
Just let the music play
Just let the music play
In the Restaurant at the End of the Universe
In the year 3010
I was listenin' to the Good Old Interstellar Boys
Playin' "Let It Be" again
But when I heard the trumpet sounding
I knew there'd be a change
A prophet wearin' robes appeared before us
And he looked at me and said
Don't tell the band
The devil's on his way
Don't tell the band
Just let the music play
Don't tell the band
The devil's on his way
Don't tell the band
Just let the music play
Just let the music play
Just let the music play

(33,525 posts)I'm a morbid type, and thinking this could actually kill me, as I am high risk, should I get it, it gives my some time to reflect on how much I love my wife, and how fortunate to have been with her all these years. The very last thought I want to have in my life is of her because she made my life worth living.
I knew her for quite some time before we became lovers, and spent some of that time, a lot of that time, longing for more than just a friendship, although a wonderful friendship it was.
Since the one thing I miss right now is the privilege of kissing her, I'm hoping that should I live - and there's a high probability I will - that next kiss will come after wanting to kiss her as much as I did before she was open to the idea of being kissed by me.
She was, is, and always will be so beautiful to me.
The bright side of all of this is being around my family.

(816 posts)Where the road is dark and the seed is sowed
Where the gun is cocked and the bullet's cold
Where the miles are marked in the blood and gold
I'll meet you further on up the road
Got on my dead man's suit and my smilin' skull ring
My lucky graveyard boots and song to sing
I got a song to sing, keep me out of the cold
And I'll meet you further on up the road.
Further on up the road
Further on up the road
Where the way dark and the night is cold
One sunny mornin' we'll rise I know
And I'll meet you further on up the road.
Now I been out in the desert, just doin' my time
Searchin' through the dust, lookin' for a sign
If there's a light up ahead well brother I don't know
But I got this fever burnin' in my soul
So let's take the good times as they go
And I'll meet you further on up the road
Further on up the road
Further on up the road
Further on up the road
Further on up the road
One sunny mornin' we'll rise I know
And I'll meet you further on up the road
One sunny mornin' we'll rise I know
And I'll meet you further on up the road.
