Johnny Mandel – Suicide Is Painless (M.A.S.H Theme)
i take it all back
this ...with the MASH guys as attendtants
Through early morning fog I see
Visions of the things to be
The pains that are withheld for me
I realize and I can see...
[REFRAIN]:
That suicide is painless
It brings on many changes
And I can take or leave it if I please.
I try to find a way to make
All our little joys relate
Without that ever-present hate
But now I know that it's too late, and...
[REFRAIN]
The game of life is hard to play
I'm gonna lose it anyway
The losing card I'll someday lay
So this is all I have to say.
[REFRAIN]
The only way to win is cheat
And lay it down before I'm beat
And to another give my seat
For that's the only painless feat.
[REFRAIN]
The sword of time will pierce our skins
It doesn't hurt when it begins
But as it works its way on in
The pain grows stronger...watch it grin, but...
[REFRAIN]
A brave man once requested me
To answer questions that are key
Is it to be or not to be
And I replied 'oh why ask me?'
[REFRAIN]
'Cause suicide is painless
It brings on many changes
And I can take or leave it if I please.
...and you can do the same thing if you please.

Neil Young - Powderfinger
I want Neil Young dressed as a priest & singing ...
"Shelter me from the powder
and the finger
Cover me with the thought
that pulled the trigger
Think of me
as one you'd never figured
Would fade away so young
With so much left undone
Remember me to my love,
I know I'll miss her. "

EDGAR BROUGHTON BAND - Evening Over Rooftops
The air was thick like honey
Looking from a room
The room had open windows
To let this springtime through
Evening stood by watchin'
At the side of summer's promise
The flowers in her garden
Were the envy of her friends
How far are we from dying
Is it nearly at an end?
How far are we from dying
Is it nearly at an end?
The smoke hung on the skyline
The city fell in silence
The sunset, ripe and mellow
Was the light to write some thoughts by
Her children watched for father
From a window in the wall
Said a prayer for grandpapa
And maybe many more
Somewhere in the distance
On the road so far away
I heard the sound of life
Though the people left for home
Three birds flew off a building
Standing proud against the sky
Many more flew with them
Spiralled up like laughter
Faster, harder
They rose up in a column
Hundreds upon hundreds
And twice that many wingspeed
Four miles across
Stretched a million miles high
The living pulsing column
In the lady of the sky
Feathers thrashed together
Locked in that huge swarm
I knew no-one could see it
And now that it was gone
I rubbed my eyes and tried to find
A reason for the flight
Exodus, escape
Or was it just for me to see?
Like the mating of the earth and air
Like water is to flowers
The envy of her friends
How far are we from dying, is it nearly at an end?
How far are we from dying
Is it nearly at an end?
How far are we from dying
Is it nearly at an end?...

Get Well Soon - A Burial At Sea
4 a.m.
Wake up call
It's time now
Oh boy
All in all
I've had my share
Laughter
And tears
If everything
Goes down
With everyone
Around
The whole family
And if the whole world relies on me now
And I have no hope myself?
What do they say is the world's reward?
They'll name the new gym after me
Trick or treat
Someone says
Now all is
At stake
Sweaty hands
A hurting neck
Just like the
First time
Then everything
Falls down
And everyone
Is around
Let the camera roll
And action
Top of my wishlist, to die misunderstood
To be larger than life after death
To be quoted in books still to come
And second, a burial at sea
Far away the ocean
Far away the sea
Far away the ocean
Far away the sea
Maybe it could be that I pushed it too far
That way fate can't be tricked
Rented a car on my holiday in Greece
And drove gently off the edge

Songs Ohia - Ring the Bell
Help does not just walk up to you i could have told you that
i'm not an idiot
i could have told you that
in every serpent's eye watch you go where you go
every serpents double tongue takes a turn with your soul
if you let them ring your bell
they're ringing the bell
why wouldn't i be trying to figure it out
everyone tells you that
everyone tells you not to quit
i can't even see it to fight it
if it looks like i'm not trying i don't care what it looks like
cause i stood at the alter and everything turned white
all I heard was the sound... of the world coming down around me
why wouldn't i be trying
why wouldn't i try
cause those double tongues are singing hear the wail of the choir through the fog
the sound of that choir through the fog
they're always close they're always so close always close always so close
if there's a way out it will be step by step through the black
why wouldn't i be trying to figure it out it don't mean i'm not trying if i don't make it back
i know serpents will cross universes to circle around our necks
i know hounds will cross universes to circle around our feet
i know they're close
step by step one's beside me to kill me or to guide me
why wouldn't i be trying to figure which one out

Carol Anne McGowan - Mad Girl's Love Song
Mad Girl's Love Song
By Sylvia Plath
"I shut my eyes and all the world drops dead;
I lift my lids and all is born again.
(I think I made you up inside my head.)
The stars go waltzing out in blue and red,
And arbitrary blackness gallops in:
I shut my eyes and all the world drops dead.
I dreamed that you bewitched me into bed
And sung me moon-struck, kissed me quite insane.
(I think I made you up inside my head.)
God topples from the sky, hell's fires fade:
Exit seraphim and Satan's men:
I shut my eyes and all the world drops dead.
I fancied you'd return the way you said,
But I grow old and I forget your name.
(I think I made you up inside my head.)
I should have loved a thunderbird instead;
At least when spring comes they roar back again.
I shut my eyes and all the world drops dead.
(I think I made you up inside my head.)"

Rome - To Die Among Strangers
to a find a cooler place in the grass
to brave my fire
a jury heard, a sentence passed
to brave my fire
we lust for the wine you bolt
like all things impure, like all things undead
we beg from these swine
who told you to love and endure
and to live in our stead
the whores of rome and the kings of france
have tried to brave my fire
now the snakes curl up, the curtains part
will you try to brave my fire?
we lust for the wine you bolt
like all things impure, like all things undead
we beg from these swine
who told you to love and endure
and to live in our stead
to find a little place in the grass
tune up for the funeral march
keep your treason brittle as glass
you could have been the first
could have been the last to brave my fire
