W.O.E.

by Eve

Caught beneath visions of hatred
Drowning fast in sounds of silence
Caught between divisions of hate
Can't breathe under this weight of existence
[Chorus:]
Too strong,
Too strong for you
Too strong,
Too strong for you
[Repeat 1st verse, Chorus]
Drowning
Drowning
Drowning
Drowning [X2]
[Repeat 1st verse, Chorus]

Woe

by Chakuza

Where am I?
I've never been myself
Lived for someone else
In the dark I dig into my flesh
I'm calling out, I'm calling out
I'm crying out for my death
I cry in woe
Why am I even here?
Everyone would be better without me
The sun is shining over city streets
But in my heart the dark is dwelling
It's all that I see
I cry in woe
Until I fall under a moving train
I live my life alone in pain

Woe

by MADONNA

All the words in my mouth
That the scene deemed unworthy of letting out
Banded together to form a makeshift militia
And burrowed bloodily through my tongue and my teeth
And I stood proud in the gallery
With my open socket of a mouth for them to see
They all just laughed and said, That boy, he
That boy's got...
Woe
Woe...
He lives with woe...
Woe...
And this girl who I met
Whose pride makes her hard to forget
She took pity on me horizontally
But most likely because of my band
And that's all I can get when I'm lonely
And these visions of death seem to own me
In the quiet of the classrooms
All across the stacked United States of
Woe
Woe...
We live with
Woe...
She said, I can't get laid in this town
Without these pointy fuckin' shoes.
My feet are so black and blue
And so are you.
Please take me out of my body, up through the
Palm trees to smell California in sweet hypocrisy
Floatin', my senses surround my body
I wake my nose to smell that ocean burn
So now I'm forging ahead
Past all the plutocrats who sold me out
Go sob in your bed
If life is twice as pretty once your dead, then
Send me a card
I'm still the optimist, though it is hard when
All you want to be is in a dream
A dream
(aka Woyzeck’s Woe)
The ribbon round your neck
against your skin it’s pale as bone
It is my favorite thing you’ve worn
The band is playing our song
And we won’t go home, ’til morn

We got some poison in us
Cyanide and nicotine
More than you've ever seen
More than I can believe
Woe, woe, woe, woe
Guns guns they all got guns
Now they wanna shoot someone
I'd rather be drunk than dead
Or go where Jesus fled
So I'll get drunk again
Or maybe not
Woe, woe, woe, woe
I saw on a tombstone
He came in this world alone
Spent all his time alone
He left this life alone
Woe, woe, woe, woe
