Smiths/Morrissey lyrics that apply to you...

[Carol]

What she said was sad but with all the rejections she's had
To pretend to be happy
Could only be idiocy

 

[~Bertie]

Heaven Knows I'm Miserable Now

I was happy in the haze of a drunken hour
But heaven knows I'm miserable now

I was looking for a job, and then I found a job
And heaven knows I'm miserable now

In my life
Why do I give valuable time
To people who don't care if I live or die ?

Two lovers entwined pass me by
And heaven knows I'm miserable now

I was looking for a job, and then I found a job
And heaven knows I'm miserable now

In my life
Oh, why do I give valuable time
To people who don't care if I live or die ?

What she asked of me at the end of the day
Caligula would have blushed

"You've been in the house too long" she said
And I (naturally) fled

In my life
Why do I smile
At people who I'd much rather kick in the eye ?

I was happy in the haze of a drunken hour
But heaven knows I'm miserable now

"You've been in the house too long" she said
And I (naturally) fled

In my life
Why do I give valuable time
To people who don't care if I live or die ?

 

[Aly Panic]

How can you say, I go about things the wrong way

Trouble loves me, trouble needs me
two things more than you do.

also

But sometimes id feel more fulfilled, making christmas cards with the mentally ill.

i could go on

"Close your eyes, and think of someone you physically admire.
And let me kiss you..."

I always feel like saying that to someone I fancy, but haven't the guts to do do.

> I really did think that "if you had an acoustic guitar it meant that
> you were a protest singer"

theres so many lyrics that apply to me - before discovering smiths/moz there were a few bands that did lyrics that applied to me, but none have written as many that apply to me as moz has! if i had to list all the lyrics it would be a very long list... so here is just a few:

theres a club if you'd like to go
you could meet somebody who really loves you
so you go and you stand on your own
and you leave on your own
and you go home and you cry and you want to die
(i discovered this was true for myself a while before hearing how soon is now for the first time - nightclubs are not the place to find love! and the rest of the song applies to me too...)

the headmaster ritual - ok so teachers dont physically hurt kids any more, but they still make you lose the will to live!

two lovers entwined pass me by
and heaven knows im miserable now
(there were some total losers at my school who made a big show of ooh-look-at-us-we're-going-out-bet-you-wish-you-were-me and made single people miserable! i know ppl who say its a depressing song, but i love heaven knows im miserable now, cos sometimes i really am totally miserable and i think u have to express it, not bottle it up...)

everyday is like sunday - i live in a town just like that!

the world is full of crashing bores - especially the line about popstars with nothing to convey, its so true!

i could go on... theres just so many lyrics i can relate to...

Life is never kind...Oh, but I know what will make you smile tonight

 

[foxy]

as rose collects the money in the canaster who comes sliding down the banister, its the vicar in a tutu.....

 

[ordinary girl19]

"I am a poor freezingly cold soul
So far from where
I intended to go
Scavenging through life's very constant lulls
So far from where I'm determined to go..."

 

[foxy]

ref ordinary girl 19

yes a great song I agree, but stop feeling sorry for yourself and snap out of it, are you 19? you have your hole life ahead of you, your song should be 'sister i'm a poet', if you are so far from where you intended to be, do something about it, and when did you make these intentions when you were 18?

 

[scot]

For many many years my lyrics were

"there's a club, if you'd like to go,
you could meet somebody who really loves you
So you go, and you stand on your own,
and you leave on you own,
and you go home, and you cry,
and you want to die"

then one day

i met someone who loves me.

im very lucky

 

[please]

Really, had any strange dust land on your hands recently. I certainly hope not, if so wash with water for 5 minutes.

Haha well, a lot of people at my age are suffering from depression.It's natural, and i've been through some quite difficult experiences in my 19 years of life. But, yea thanks for the comforting words.

Re: ref ordinary girl 19

At 19, you can't understand what depression is about, enjoy you teens and early twenties, then the pressures arrive

Re: ref ordinary girl 19

if you have to try, your not doing it right.
Believe me time flies by.
Youth comes and goes, in the blink of an eye.

and when it gone, will you wonder what you did wrong or look back with happiness.

Enjoy it girl, its fantastic being 19/20/21, engage with everything around you, experience everything, good and bad. Its the only way to live.

And for god's sake, don't worry about love, it comes and goes.
