Artist - Melissa Ferrick
Album - Freedom
Lyrics - Freedom
sadness finds its way onto me
ya on any given day
and i just end up feelin guilty
and i don't know how many times i've told you
i do not know how i ended up this way
it's as if sometimes i have just halted
yeah i stop dead in my tracks
life it just seems to cover me
and it's in these moments that i feel trapped
so i claim freedom
i claim my freedom
so what is it exactly that you want from me
oh yeah you want me to say
even though i am terrified to let myself end up this way
yeah i'm afraid of feeling
of feeling nothing at all
and i'm afraid of settling down
into a love that ain't love at all
so i claim my freedom
i claim freedom
so take this brain out and hang it on the line
take this chair out back and burn it
'cause i can't get any work done from in here
you know this hole i dug myself in
has got me buried up to helpless
and i'd like to call you a liar
yeah but that's what you
what you liked to call me
yeah i'd like to call you a liar
liar
yeah but that's what you
isn't that what you always called me
so i claim my freedom
yeah i claim my freedom
freedom freedom freedom
freedom freedom freedom |

Location: Dayton, Ohio | oh, and i love alanis. :) maybe 'not the doctor.'
here's a great one by poe...
angry johnny
Johnny, angry johnny, this is jezebel in hell
I wanna kill you, I wanna blow you...away
I can do it to you gently
I can do it with an animal’s grace
I can do it with precision
I can do it with gormet taste
Chorus:
But either way
Either (way), either way
I wanna kill you
I wanna blow you...
Away
I can do it to your mind
I can do it to your face
I can do it with integrity
I can do it with disgrace
Chorus
Johnny, angry johnny, this is jezebel in hell
Johnny, angry johnny, this is jezebel in hell
I can do it in a church
I can do it any time or place
I can do it like an angel
To quiet down your rage
Chorus
I can do it in the water
I can do on dry land
I can do it with instruments
I can do it with my own bare hands
But either way
Either way, you know where it stands
I wanna kill you
I wanna blow you...
Away
Johnny, angry johnny, this is jezebel in hell
Johnny, oh my johnny
Where did your pleasure go
When the pain came through you
Where did your happiness go
This force is running you around now
Getting you down now
Where is your pleasure now johnny
Where has your pleasure gone now
Johnny, angry johnny... |

Location: Earth·SolarSystem·LocalInterstellarCloud·Local Bub | This song really isn't on topic but it is a kick ass acoustic by Patti Rothberg. She sings and plays her ass off...Persphone, you may find you like her music....
Treat Me Like Dirt
Also, more on topic Lucinda Williams "Changed the Locks " -Kasey Chambers also does a cover of it that is FEE-NOM-A-NAL
EDIT: Corrected the title of the Lucinda Williams song. |

Location: SoCal | Where it says "I wanna kill you, I wanna blow you away", in my line of work, well, you start walking carefully when you hear that. And Ani is wrong.... if I have fear (I prefer to think of it as prudence), it's because of the rage that cause's lines like the above to be written.
In my neighborhood, it's called common sense. |

I would also check out "Barricades and Brickwalls", again, by Kasey Chambers. If you are not familar with her she is definitely worth checking out. Massive Talent. |
