0 + 2 = 1 (Nomeansno)

"0 + 2 = 1
Race that to the finnish line at a dead run.
Life is short and love is fleeting ---
Before these masks, haloed with snakes,
Hissing like rain on the pavement,
The blind are deafened and the lame are made dumb,
For that queer equation this is the sum:
0 + 2 = 1

0 + 2 = 1
Before the feast, chops on the block!
A word, to the wise, is a fork into flesh.
Everything stretched under God's great hand:
A mouth to a breast, an axe to a tree,
The hoot of an owl in the dreams of a mouse ---
Count on your fingers, it's the rule of the thumb, but
0 + 2 = 1

0 + 2 = 1
Yes and no are like day and night,
One breaks as the other is falling.
Question the answers, stir the solutions,
In the end, for light, you must burn your conclusions;
Night and darkness love silence above all,
Not the equations of sun-loving apes,
And their prayers for the dead of a world that's to come ---
0 + 2 = 1

0 + 2 = 1
It may not be nice, it may not be fun,
It may just be a halo of hissing snakes.
But if nothing is something, if to rise is to fall,
Then a child needs a name like a corpse needs a pall ---
Nonsence is better than no sence at all.
Hail to the lies by which all truths are hounded!
The murder is done, the temple is founded.
Where the current is grounded its circuitry hums:
0 + 2 = 1

(The events are the same, in a different chain for the myth of logic and its heroes:
1 - 2 = ?)"

Skates (hayden)

"When I was younger, part time job worker. Department store center, I saw the man enter.
He was middle-aged, Deep lines on his face. Tired mouth and eyes glazed.
Eyelids just half-raised.

And I looked at him, he looked at me.
He looked so sad, I had to see.
What did he want, what could it be?
What had he been through before me seeing him In the store I worked for that year?..

Ice skates he asked for, In the middle of summer. He wanted a good pair. The price he did not care. I looked for his size.
Our best pair he tried. Custom back and sides. Excitement in his eyes.

And I looked at him, he looked at me.
He looked so sad, I had to see.
What did he want, what could it be?
What had he been through before me seeing him In the store I worked for that year?..

I asked "are you a pro?" He looked sad and said "no.
"These skates are my last hope.
Without them I cannot cope."
He said "my wife, she drowned this summer. Behind our house, the river took her.
I cannot swim, I need to find her.
So I will wait till it freezes over.
And then I will skate as far as it takes...
I will skate as far as it takes...
To bring her back home. Back home.""

````````````````````````````````````

Stem (hayden)

"I bought a rose to give to you
A windy day, the petals flew
From the stem onto the street
I tried to catch them with my feet

I got to your door you looked to see
Through the peep hole right at me
You let me in and I just froze
I gave you a stem that was a rose
was a rose..."

I Hate It Too (Hum)

Morning grey ignites a twisted mess of foreign shapes and sounds...
I wish the ceiling was the ground...
I'll send you flowers made of silent tiny pieces of the sun to help me make up for this one...

While you send me tidal waves of love when you're alone and I can't remember what you do...
To find a way to turn the signal back to heaven sounding blue and bring me faithful back to you...

And she don't hold me right, she's never going to get me there...
And she don't hold me right, she's never going to get me there --- not tonight...

If we break off gently in slow motion, spinning outwards into space...
My hand always floating gently at the wheel while you sweetly hold my face...
And I need you to give it meaning, I need you to share the view...
Or it becomes a time for me to love myself like every other thing I do...

.............................................

Prince Vince (Transistor Sound & Lighting Co.)

A burning heart will sink you
faster than your cereal
and never stop to underestimate
your lyrical decay
let's start a trend
there is no ending to
this spectacle
a lesser friend could never
comprehend a cannibal

I'll stumble on my shoes
and make a face that i
could never use
and when i think of you
you're driving in a station
wagon
this humble pose
is grandiose until
it's rickety
nobody knows there is
no ending to infinity...
