jane summertime and the wind is blowing outside in lower chelsea and i don't know what i'm doing in this city the sun is always in my eyes it crashes through the windows and i'm sleeping on the couch when i came to visit you that's when i knew that i could never have you, i knew that before you did, still i'm the one who's stupid, and there's this burning, like there's always been, i've never been so alone, and i've never been so alive
visions of you on a motorcycle driveby the cigarette ash flies in your eyes and you don't mind, you smile, and say the world it doesn't fit with you, i don't believe you, you're so serene
careening through the universe, your axis on a tilt, you're guiltless and free i hope you take a piece of me with you
and there's things i would like to do that you don't believe in, i would like to build something but you'd never see it happen and there's this burning like there's always been, i've never been so alone and i've never been so alive
and there's this burning, there is this burning
where's the soul i wanna know, new york city is evil, the surface is everything, but i could never do that, someone would see through that
and this is the last time we'll be friends again, and i'll get over you, you'll wonder who i am
and there's this burning just like there's always been
i've never been so alone alone and i've and i've never been so alive
so alive
i go home to the coast it starts to rain i paddle out on the water, alone
taste the salt and taste the pain i'm not thinking of you again
summer dies and swells rise, the sun goes down in my eyes, see this rolling wave, darkly coming, to take me home
and i've never been so alone
and i've never been so alive

Boymansonbowie that is the most beautiful song. i listened to it so many times when their self-titled album came out that i broke the tape. then i went out and bought the cd. 020807

...
Boymansonbowie It always makes me cry. 020811
...
jane have you heard the rest of that cd? backround is equally as touching...i remember somebody writing about how when he sings "the plans i make still have you in them," to listen closely to how he says "in" 020812

endless desires
+Motorcycle Driveby+
((Third Eye Blind))

Summer time and the wind is blowing
Outside in lower Chelsea
And I don't know what I'm doing in this city
The sun is always in my eyes
It crashes through the windows
And I'm sleeping on the couch
When I came to visit you
That's when I knew
I could never have you
I knew that before you did
Still I'm feeling stupid
And there's this burning
Like there's always been
I've never been so alone
And I've never been so alive
Visions of you on a motorcycle drive by
Cigarette ash flies in your eyes
And you don't mind
And you smile
And say the world doesn't fit with you
I don't believe you
You're so serene
Careening through the universe
Your axis on a tilt
Guiltless and free
I hope you take a piece of me with you
And there's things I'd like to do that you don't believe in
I would like to build something
You know it's never going to happen
And there's this burning
Like there's always been
I've never been so alone
And I've never been so alive
And there's this burning
There is this burning
Where's the soul
I want to know
New York City is evil
The surface is everything, but I could never do that
Someone would see through that
And this will be the last time
We'll be friends again
I'll get over you and you'll wonder
Who I am
And there's this burning
Like there's always been
I've never been so alone
And I've never been so alive
I go home to the coast
It starts to rain
I paddle out
On the water alone
Taste the salt and taste the pain
I'm not thinking of you again
Summer dies and swells rise
The sun goes down in my eyes
See this rolling wave
Darkly coming to take me
Home
And I never been so alone
And I've never been so alive

this is the best song ever written
in my personal opinion

endless desire hah awesome. i didnt think anyone would have posted anything under it. didnt mean to repeat the lyrics. the point is, i think it is the most touchy, beautiful song ever. though many of their songs are close seconds.
very sorry for double posting :)

imposter My absolute, all-time favourite song. I heard it first perhaps three or four years ago, and it just stood out. Listening to it that first time through, it spoke to me about my life in ways a song never had before. And still, all these years later, it speaks to me. I have listened to it literally well over a thousand times (haha, I agree with you there, endless), and each time through I find something new, be it a guitar riff or a bass note I never noticed, a breath inflection or perhaps a slightly miss-twanged chord. It is so beautiful, and through the years, it is the musical equivalent of my lifetime. Many other songs by this amazing band come close, and their lyrics (I think they have the best lyrics of any band, ever) seem written to my life, but Motorcycle Driveby tops them all.
