Rapture

by bjork

Toe to toe
Dancing very slow
Barely breathing
Almost comatose
Wall to wall
People hypnotised
And they're stepping lightly
Hang each night in Rapture
Back to back
Sacrailiac
Spineless movement
And a wild attack
Face to face
Sadly solitude
And it's finger popping
Twenty-four hour shopping in Rapture
Fab Five Freddie told me everybody's high
DJ's spinnin' are savin' my mind
Flash is fast, Flash is cool
Francois sez fas, Flashe' no do
And you don't stop, sure shot
Go out to the parking lot
And you get in your car and you drive real far
And you drive all night and then you see a light
And it comes right down and lands on the ground
And out comes a man from Mars
And you try to run but he's got a gun
And he shoots you dead and he eats your head
And then you're in the man from Mars
You go out at night, eatin' cars
You eat Cadillacs, Lincolns too
Mercurys and Subarus
And you don't stop, you keep on eatin' cars
Then, when there's no more cars
You go out at night and eat up bars where the people meet
Face to face, dance cheek to cheek
One to one, man to man
Dance toe to toe
Don't move to slow, 'cause the man from Mars
Is through with cars, he's eatin' bars
Yeah, wall to wall, door to door, hall to hall
He's gonna eat 'em all
Rapture, be pure
Take a tour, through the sewer
Don't strain your brain, paint a train
You'll be singin' in the rain
I said don't stop, do punk rock
Well now you see what you wanna be
Just have your party on TV
'Cause the man from Mars won't eat up bars when the TV's on
And now he's gone back up to space
Where he won't have a hassle with the human race
And you hip-hop, and you don't stop
Just blast off, sure shot
'Cause the man from Mars stopped eatin' cars and eatin' bars
And now he only eats guitars, get up!

Rapture

by JOHNNY CASH

This is how we multiply
Pity that its not my wife
The friction and skin
The trembling sigh
This is how the bodies move
With everything that we could lose
Pushing us deeper still
The sheets and the sweat
The seed and the spill
The bitter pill yet undiscovered
Gideon is in the drawer
Clothes scattered on the floor
Shes arching her back
She screams for more
Oh my sweet rapture
I hear Jesus calling me home
Finally the chance to breath
Reaching for the fallen sheets
Collapsing in a glowing heap
We've gone too far
We've done too much
We have to quit it
Just one more kiss
Just one more touch
Please 10 more minutes
This feels so good. . .
Just barely moving. . .
The tension building. . .
Our bodies working. . .
To Reach their goal. . .
Oh my sweet rapture
I hear Jesus and the angels singing
Hallelujah
Calling me to enter the promise land.

Rapture

by Soundtrack

In the life of the wrong a love lingered on,
Love lingered on to frustration.
And if our love is so wrong, what should we do alone?
Or am I just a picture in a photograph?
Why are we stuck in this pantomime fearing a god who died?
One who would not deny lovers?
And I don't care what they say, if what you need is your faith,
Then take a look at my face and know
That till your rapture falls to pieces
Until your rapture falls to pieces
Find in me the room to breathe,
Simple things like suffering
Life had gone this way
Life is gone this way
Still in the life of the wrong we all moved along
Another life evolved to gestation
And so we made our way with the mistake we made
But she was just a picture in the photograph
So she walked in the baby's room
Knowing what she should do leave me in
Absolute horror
She put her hand on its lip she gave it
One last kiss
And sang some tune that went
Until your rapture falls to pieces
Till your rapture falls to pieces
Find in me the room to breathe,
Simple things like suffering
And I would and I would, destroy your god
Yes I would if I could destroy your god
Because you're born again
Until you're worn again,
Till your rapture falls to pieces
Till your rapture falls to pieces
Find in me the room to breathe,
Sinful things are suffering
Till your rapture falls to pieces
Till your rapture falls to pieces
But, if this must be, then burn with me
Anything
Just don't leave
So find in me the room to breathe
Sinful things are suffering
Till your rapture falls to pieces
She swore she heard the voice of Jesus
Telling her it was wrong to keep it
And one more thing, it looked like me
Back when it breathed
Rest in peace
Until the rapture comes to meet us

The night I laid my eyes on you
I felt everything around me move
Got nervous when you looked my way
But you knew all the words to say
And your love slowly moved right in
All this time, oh my love, where you been
Mi amore
Don't you know
My love I want you so
Sugar
You make my soul complete
Rapture tastes so sweet
I'm mesmerised in every way
You keep me in a state of daze
Your kisses make my skin feel weak
Always melting in your heat
Then I sore like a bird in the wind
Oh I glide like I'm flying through heaven
Mi amore
Don't you know
My love I want you so
Sugar
You make my soul complete
Rapture tastes so sweet
Mi amore

My love I want you so

Rapture

by John Cale

With photographs
And magnetic tape
We capture
Pretty animals in cages
Pretty flowers in vases
Enraptured
And doesn’t the tree
Write great poetry?
Doing itself so well
Do you blame Monet?
His gardens in Giverny
He captured
And lovely Basho
His plunking ponds and toads
Enraptured
The fate of Kurt Cobain
Junk coursing through his veins
And young Virginia Woolf
Death came and hung her coat
Love of color, sound and words
Is it a blessing or a curse?
Enraptured

Rapture

Rapture
Eyes are falling
Lips are falling
Hair is falling to the ground
Slowly, softly
Falling, falling
Down in silence to the ground
All the world is falling, falling
All the blue
From me and you
Tear drops falling to the ground
Tear drops
I'm talkin' 'bout your tear drops
For instance
Oh my mama
She's been falling
Falling down for quite some time
And oh my papa
He's been falling
Falling down for quite some time
Oh my friends
I've watched them falling
Falling softly to the ground
Oh the leaves
The Leaves are falling
Down in silence to the ground
Is this the rapture?
Is this the rapture?
Why don't you tell me
Is this the rapture?
Is this the rapture?
Our father who art in heaven
For the kingdom, the power, the glory, yours
Now and forever

Rapture

by Primal Fear

Confront me unholy ones
Bastard saints scorn of the earth
I summon thee now poison me
Death under will burn in my soul
Exalt me enemies of the lamb
Intrude - We are of one
Under will, I walk the path of sin
With your spells I die again
Raise me from mortal
My will be your will
My words speak your words
Your pains raise me to bliss
What of this anger now
Received to lance your enemy
I feel the energy
The poison moves in me
I spill blood
Scorn of the earth, I witness
In rapture I'm born again
Scorn of the light, I bear scorn
In rapture I'm reborn

Rapture

by Nat King Cole

Two different sides
The same kind of thread
Different needle
Sewn on, hey! hey! hey!
It's a rapture
But it's a different style
It's a rapture
The same kind of thread
Go ahead
I can't
I can't feel like
I can't difuse
It feels like
What's inside of me?
I will curse you out from me
It's just two different tools, different pieces
Can't choose one
With power
I know where you are now
You twist everything else around
Now you fuck with me
Waste...of time
You said you wont again, you swear to god!
You said I swear to god, don't want it again!
You said you swear to god, don't want it again!
You said I don't want it again, and you swear to god!
Instead, you just waste
Waste
Waste my time
Instead you just waste
Waste....my time
What takes it away?
I'm the one man suffering
It's just two different views
Different pieces
Can't choose one
With power
I know where you are now
You twist everything else around
Now you fuck with me
Ah fuck you...
Waste of, waste
I can't
I can't feel like
I can't difuse
It feels like
You said I swear to god, don't want it again!
You said don't want it again, you swear to god!
You said I swear to god, don't want it again!
You said I don't want it again, and you swear to god!
Instead, you just waste
Waste
Waste my time
Instead you just waste
Waste
Waste my time
Two different sides
The same kind of thread
Just different needles
A whole world, hey!
It's a rapture
But it's a different style
It's a rapture
The same kind of thread

Then your love slowly moved right in
All this time, oh my love, where yah been?
Im mesmerized in every way
You keep me in a state of daze
Your kisses make my skin feel weak
Always melting in your heat
Then I soar like a bird on the wind
Oh I glide, as Im lying through heaven
Mi, amore dont you know
My love I want you so
Sugar, you make my soul complete
Rapture tastes so sweet

Since we connect behind closed doors
Spark this fire even more
No telling where we will be next
Surrender to your rapture aura
Lay your head (let slumber flow)
Cant resist, thats why words will rule
Mi, amore dont you know
My love I want you so
Sugar, you make my soul complete
Rapture tastes so sweet

Rapture

by T.I.

In agony we are now twisted unblessed
We must strive, repulsed by the false
Harmony, blinded by truth
That eyes can't hope to see
Foolish man must die
For the sins that he creates
Forgive Lord - we must be weak
Remove the weight of sin, release harmony
Resist the throes of his embrace
Ignorant laws thrust in our face
