Nick Cave And The Bad Seeds The Moon Is In The Gutter lyrics
The moon is in the gutter
And the stars wash down the sink
I am the king of the blues
I scape the clay off my shoes
And wade down the gutter and the moon
The moon blinds my eye with opal cataracts
As I cut through the saw-mills and the stacks,
Leaping over the gully where I would one day take Lucy
Then wash up my hands in the gutter and the moon.
Such a long way from home, just me and
The moon is in the gutter
All my plans are flushed down the drain
I wander lonely as a cloud
Over memories at her mound
Then lie down in the bitter gutter moon.
Enjoy
Dream love Moon

The moon is in the gutter
And the stars wash down the sink
I am the king of the blues
I scape the clay off my shoes
And wade down the gutter and the moon
The moon blinds my eye with opal cataracts
As I cut through the saw-mills and the stacks,
Leaping over the gully where I would one day take Lucy
Then wash up my hands in the gutter and the moon.
Such a long way from home, just me and
The moon is in the gutter
All my plans are flushed down the drain
I wander lonely as a cloud
Over memories at her mound
Then lie down in the bitter gutter moon.
Enjoy
Dream love Moon

Mon, September 4, 2006 - 10:19 AMso...i thought and thought..and there are soooo many gooods songs for this thread...from Goth to rock..i was havin' a hard time choosing...but i'm feelin' a bit frisky today:-)(i'm getting tattooed today:-)))
so i went with a classic....introducing .....the...Rolling Stones!!!
Paint It Black
I see a red door and I want it painted black
No colors anymore I want them to turn black
I see the girls walk by dressed in their summer clothes
I have to turn my head until my darkness goes
I see a line of cars and they're all painted black
With flowers and my love both never to come back
I see people turn their heads and quickly look away
Like a new born baby it just happens ev'ry day
I look inside myself and see my heart is black
I see my red door and it has been painted black
Maybe then I'll fade away and not have to face the facts
It's not easy facin' up when your whole world is black
No more will my green sea go turn a deeper blue
I could not foresee this thing happening to you
If I look hard enough into the settin' sun
My love will laugh with me before the mornin' comes
I see a red door and I want it painted black
No colors anymore I want them to turn black
I see the girls walk by dressed in their summer clothes
I have to turn my head until my darkness goes
Hmm, hmm, hmm,...
I wanna see it painted, painted black
Black as night, black as coal
I wanna see the sun blotted out from the sky
I wanna see it painted, painted, painted, painted black
Yeah!
lol

Thu, September 7, 2006 - 7:45 PMOne of my personal favorites for dark lyrics floating on an oily pool of sound....
Six Undergound
by The Sneaker Pimps
Take me down
six underground
the ground beneath your feet
Laid out low
nothing to go
nowhere a way to meet
I've got a head full of drought
down here
so far off losing out
'round here
Overground
watch this space
I'm open
to falling from grace
Calm me down
bring it 'round
too way high off your street
I can see
like nothing else
In me
you're better than I wanna be
Don't think 'cos I understand
I care
don't think 'cos I'm talking
we're friends
Overground
watch this space
I'm open
to falling from grace
Talk me down
safe and sound
too strung up to sleep
Wear me out
scream and shout
I swear my time's never cheap
I fake my life like I've lived
too much
I take whatever you're givin'
not enough
Overground
watch this space
I'm open
to falling from grace
