    The Charge of the Light Brigade
    Alfred, Lord Tennyson


    1.

    Half a league, half a league,
    Half a league onward,
    All in the valley of Death
    Rode the six hundred.
    "Forward, the Light Brigade!
    "Charge for the guns!" he said:
    Into the valley of Death
    Rode the six hundred.

    2.

    "Forward, the Light Brigade!"
    Was there a man dismay'd?
    Not tho' the soldier knew
    Someone had blunder'd:
    Theirs not to make reply,
    Theirs not to reason why,
    Theirs but to do and die:
    Into the valley of Death
    Rode the six hundred.

    3.

    Cannon to right of them,
    Cannon to left of them,
    Cannon in front of them
    Volley'd and thunder'd;
    Storm'd at with shot and shell,
    Boldly they rode and well,
    Into the jaws of Death,
    Into the mouth of Hell
    Rode the six hundred.

    4.

    Flash'd all their sabres bare,
    Flash'd as they turn'd in air,
    Sabring the gunners there,
    Charging an army, while
    All the world wonder'd:
    Plunged in the battery-smoke
    Right thro' the line they broke;
    Cossack and Russian
    Reel'd from the sabre stroke
    Shatter'd and sunder'd.
    Then they rode back, but not
    Not the six hundred.

    5.

    Cannon to right of them,
    Cannon to left of them,
    Cannon behind them
    Volley'd and thunder'd;
    Storm'd at with shot and shell,
    While horse and hero fell,
    They that had fought so well
    Came thro' the jaws of Death
    Back from the mouth of Hell,
    All that was left of them,
    Left of six hundred.

    6.

    When can their glory fade?
    O the wild charge they made!
    All the world wondered.
    Honor the charge they made,
    Honor the Light Brigade,
    Noble six hundred.

    upon purple clouds
    and this too eventhough its a song

    as I draw up my breath
    and silver fills my eyes
    I kiss her still
    for she will never rise.

    on my weak body
    lays her dying hands
    through those meadows of heaven
    where we ran..

    like a thief in the night
    the wind blows so light
    and it wars with my tears
    that won't dry for many years

    Love's golden arrow
    at her should've fled
    and not deaths ebon dart
    to strike her dead

    "She's Out Of My Life"

    [1st Verse]
    She's Out Of My Life
    She's Out Of My Life
    And I Don't Know Whether To Laugh Or Cry
    I Don't Know Whether To Live Or Die
    And It Cuts Like A Knife
    She's Out Of My Life

    [2nd Verse]
    It's Out Of My Hands
    It's Out Of My Hands
    To Think For Two Years She Was Here
    And I Took Her For Granted I Was So Cavalier
    Now The Way That It Stands
    She's Out Of My Hands

    [Bridge]
    So I've Learned That Love's Not Possession
    And I've Learned That Love Won't Wait
    Now I've Learned That Love Needs Expression
    But I Learned Too Late

    [3rd Verse]
    She's Out Of My Life
    She's Out Of My Life
    Damned Indecision And Cursed Pride
    Kept My Love For Her Locked Deep Inside
    And It Cuts Like A Knife
    She's Out Of My Life

    ANTHEM1 FOR DOOMED YOUTH

    What passing-bells2 for these who die as cattle?
    Only the monstrous anger of the guns.
    Only the stuttering rifles' rapid rattle
    Can patter out3 their hasty orisons.4
    No mockeries5 now for them; no prayers nor bells;
    Nor any voice of mourning save the choirs, –
    The shrill, demented6 choirs of wailing shells;
    And bugles7 calling for them from sad shires.8
    What candles9 may be held to speed them all?
    Not in the hands of boys but in their eyes
    Shall shine the holy glimmers of goodbyes.
    The pallor10 of girls' brows shall be their pall;
    Their flowers the tenderness of patient minds,
    And each slow dusk11 a drawing-down of blinds.12
