Across a 110th Street by Bobby Womack

I was the third brother of five,
Doing whatever I had to do to survive.
I'm not saying what I did was alright,
Trying to break out of the ghetto was a day to day fight.

Been down so long, getting up didn't cross my mind,
I knew there was a better way of life that I was just trying to find.
You don't know what you'll do until you're put under pressure,
Across 110th Street is a hell of a tester.

Across 110th Street,
Pimps trying to catch a woman that's weak
Across 110th Street,
Pushers won't let the junkie go free.
Across 110th Street,
Woman trying to catch a trick on the street.
Across 110th Street,
You can find it all in the street.

I got one more thing I'd like to y'all about right now.
Hey brother, there's a better way out.
Snorting that coke, shooting that dope man you're copping out.
Take my advice, it's either live or die.
You've got to be strong, if you want to survive.

The family on the other side of town,
Would catch hell without a ghetto around.
In every city you find the same thing going down,
Harlem is the capital of every ghetto town.

Across 110th Street,
Pimps trying to catch a woman that's weak
Across 110th Street,
Pushers won't let the junkie go free.
Across 110th Street,
A woman trying to catch a trick on the street, ouh baby
Across 110th Street,
You can find it all in the street.
Yes he can, oh

Look around you, just look around you,
Look around you, look around you, uh yeah.

The Sword - The Chronomancer II: Nemesis
(and really, the whole damn Warp Riders album)

Racing through the netherworld
Outside of time and space
He has found a hidden path
To pass forbidden gates
Body left to rot
As the great tidal lock sets in
The cord is cut, the way is shut,
The orb goes dim.

WIthout a doubt, for me its Don Felder's Heavy Metal, Takin a Ride....

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=La_7KO1tn9o&feature=fvsr

Used to play Elite and Freespace to it also.... it has that "shoot things" type beat.

For those too young to know it, the song was for the 1981animated movie "Heavy Metal".

Inferno: almost as fun as chewing used medical syringes.

I think the song Tears by Health from the new Max Payne soundtrack would fit EVE better. Otherwise Sweet Dreams or If I was your vampire - Marylin Manson I dont really like him but those two songs rock and they kinda fit my perception of EVE.

I'm sorry CCP but your soundtrack fuckin blows!

I recall one night in a nightclub called the matrix, there I was... Mother of god there I am! Holy f**k.

"The Farthest Star" by VNV Nation.

I mean seriously, look at these words. I think they play.

Quote:

The will to greatness clouds the mind
consumes the senses veils the signs
we each are meant to recognize
Redeeming graces cast aside
enduring oceans new-found promise
that the end will never come

We live in times when all seems lost
But time will come when we'll look back
upon ourselves and on our feelings
Embrace the void even closer still
Erase your doubts as you surrender everything

We possess the power
If this should start to fall apart
To mend divides to change the world
To reach the farthest star
If we should stay silent
If fear should win our hearts
Our life will have long diminished
Before it reaches the farthest star

Wide awake in a world that sleeps
Enduring thoughts Enduring scenes
The knowledge of what is yet to come
From a time when all seems lost
From a dead man to a world
without restraint unafraid and free

We possess the power
If this should start to fall apart
To mend divides to change the world
To reach the farthest star
If we should stay silent
If fear should win our hearts
Our life will have long diminished
Before it reaches the farthest star

If we fall and break
All the tears in the world
Cannot make us whole again


We possess the power
If this should start to fall apart
To mend divides/ to change the world
To reach the farthest star
If we should stay silent
If fear should win our hearts
Our life will have long diminished
Before it reaches the farthest star

I Can't Decide by Scissor Sisters. Sums up EvE to me.

I can't decide
Whether you should live or die
Oh, you'll probably go to heaven
Please don't hang your head and cry
No wonder why
My heart feels dead inside
It's cold and hard and petrified
Lock the doors and close the blinds
We're going for a ride

Fade Away

I'm cold and broken

It's over - I didn't want to see it come to this
I wonder if I will ever see your face again
And I know that I will find a way to she'd the skin
It's simple - I know that I will suffer in the end

Fast I fade away - it's almost over
Hold on
Slow I suffocate - I'm cold and broken
Alone

It's hopeless, the end will come and wash it all away
Forsaken - I live for those I lost along the way
And I can't remember how it all began to break
We suffer - I live to fight and die another day

Fast I fade away - it's almost over
Hold on
Slow I suffocate - I'm cold and broken
Alone

Fast I fade away - it's almost over
Hold on
Slow I suffocate - I'm cold and broken
Alone

I'm cold and broke
