Song Lyrics

[rahvin]

I thought I would make a small senseless little post for memorable and touching song lyrics from bands you like. A couple simple rules:

1. Don't nef in this thread.
2. DO NOT ATTACK SOMEONES TASTE IN MUSIC.
3. STAY ON TOPIC.

I'll start...

On the turning away
From the pale and downtrodden
And the words they say
Which we won't understand
'Don't accept that what's happening
Is just a case of others' suffering
Or you'll find that you're joining in
The turning away'

It's a sin that somehow
Light is changing to shadow
And casting it's shroud
Over all we have known
Unaware how the ranks have grown
Driven on by a heart of stone
We could find that we're all alone
In the dream of the proud

On the wings of the night
As the daytime is stirring
Where the speechless unite
In a silent accord
Using words you will find are strange
And mesmerised as they light the flame
Feel the new wind of change
On the wings of the night

No more turning away
From the weak and the weary
No more turning away
From the coldness inside
Just a world that we all must share
It's not enough just to stand and stare
Is it only a dream that there'll be
No more turning away?
Yet Another Movie
One sound, one single sound
One kiss, one single kiss
A face outside the window pane
However did it come to this?

A man who ran, a child who cried
A girl who heard, a voice that lied
The sun that burned a fiery red
The vision of an empty bed

The use of force, he was so tough
She'll soon submit, she's had enough
The march of fate, the broken will
Someone is lying very still

He has laughed and he has cried
He has fought and he has died
He's just the same as all the rest
He's not the worst, he's not the best

And still this ceaseless murmuring
The babbling that I brook
The seas of faces, eyes upraised
The empty screen, the vacant look

A man in black on a snow white horse,
A pointless life has run its course,
The red rimmed eyes, the tears still run
As he fades into the setting sun.

--Pink Floyd

 

[GooberPHX420]

"In The End"

(It starts with)
One thing / I don?t know why
It doesn?t even matter how hard you try
Keep that in mind / I designed this rhyme
To explain in due time
All I know
time is a valuable thing
Watch it fly by as the pendulum swings
Watch it count down to the end of the day
The clock ticks life away
It?s so unreal
Didn?t look out below
Watch the time go right out the window
Trying to hold on / but didn?t even know
Wasted it all just to
Watch you go
I kept everything inside and even though I tried / it all fell apart
What it meant to me / will eventually / be a memory / of a time when I tried
so hard
And got so far
But in the end
It doesn't even matter
I had to fall
To lose it all
But in the end
It doesn't even matter
One thing / I don?t know why
It doesn?t even matter how hard you try
Keep that in mind / I designed this rhyme
To remind myself how
I tried so hard
In spite of the way you were mocking me
Acting like I was part of your property
Remembering all the times you fought with me
I?m surprised it got so (far)
Things aren?t the way they were before
You wouldn?t even recognize me anymore
Not that you knew me back then
But it all comes back to me
In the end
You kept everything inside and even though I tried / it all fell apart
What it meant to me / will eventually / be a memory / of a time when I
I tried so hard
And got so far
But in the end
It doesn?t even matter
I had to fall
And lose it all
But in the end
It doesn?t even matter
I put my trust in you
Pushed as far as I can go
And for all this
There?s only one thing you should know
I put my trust in you
Pushed as far as I can go
And for all this
There?s only one thing you should know
I tried so hard
And got so far
But in the end
It doesn?t even matter
I had to fall
And lose it all
But in the end
It doesn?t even matter

Modest Mouse
Paper Thin Walls

These walls are paper thin
And everyone hears every little sound
Everyone's a voyeur, their watching me
Watch them, watch me right now
They're shakin? hands, they're shakin? in their shoes
Oh Lord, don't shake me down
Everyone wants two themselves
And half of everyone else who?s around
Its been agreed, the whole world stinks
So no ones taking showers anymore
LAUGH HARD IT?S A LONG WAY TO THE BANK
I can't be blamed for nothin? anymore
It's been a long time since you've been around
Laugh hard it?s a long ways to the bank
Tow the line to tax the time, you know
That you don't owe
I can't be a fool for everyone that I don't know

Tricky
Black steel

Martina :
I got a letter from the government
The other day
Opened it and read it
It said they were suckers
They wanted me for their army or whatever
Picture me givin' a damn, I said never
Here is a land that never gave a damn
About a brother like myself
Because I never did
I wasn't wit' it, but just that very minute...
It occurred to me
The suckers had authority
Cold sweatin' as I dwell in my cell
How long has it been?
They got me sittin' in the state pen
I gotta get out, but that thought was thought before
I contemplated a plan on the cell floor
I'm not a fugitive on the run
But a brother like me begun, to be another one
Public enemy servin' time, they drew the line y'all
They criticize me for some crime

I got a letter, I got a letter, I got a letter
Picture me given' a damn, I said never
Mmm...mmm...mmm

Tricky :
Many switch in, switch on, switch off X5

Martina :
Nevertheless they could not understand
That I'm a black man, and I could never be a veteran.
On the strength of situations, I'm real.
I got a raw deal, so I'm lookin' for the steel
Looking for the steel.

[deftron]

To pretend no one can find,
The fallacies of morning rose,
Forbidden fruit, hidden eyes,
Courtesies that I despise in me
Take a ride, take a shot now.

?Cause nobody loves me,
It's true,
Not like you do.

Covered by the blind belief,
That fantasies of sinful screens,
Bear the facts, assume the dye,
End the vows no need to lie, enjoy,
Take a ride, take a shot now.

?Cause nobody loves me,
It's true,
Not like you do.

Who oo am I, what and why?
?Cause all I have left is my memories of yesterday,
Ohh these sour times.

?Cause nobody loves me,
It's true,
Not like you do.

After time the bitter taste,
Of innocence decent or race,
Scattered seed, buried lives,
Mysteries of our disguise revolve,
Circumstance will decide.

?Cause nobody loves me,
It's true,
Not like you do



Portishead "Sour Times"

 

[ShadowDJ]

Here's a truly amazing one with an interesting beat to it. I suggest you d/l the song.

The Black Heart Procession
A Light So Dim

There are no trains that leave from the maze
Your only chance was a ship to escape
You'll be the lighthouse in the storm
I'll be the ship with a thousand dead souls
But how long will they believe in a light so dim

Down in the gallows the darkness glows
It was hard to see in the hearts of them
You'll see a light call down below
I'll be moving and sorting out our fears
But how long will we believe in a light so dim

Time is all we have
So take the time
And time is all we have
So take the time to make the time

Throw down the line 'cause I'll see to climb
If it's held close it may just work
If you are the lighthouse in the storm
I'll be the ship filled with a thousand dead souls

And time is all we have
So take the time
Time is all we have
So take the time
Time is all we have
So take the time to make the time

'Cause time is all we have
So make the time to take the time
And take the time to make the time
To take the time to make the time
And take the time to make the time

 

[thomsbrain]

I see some good taste here (Modest Mouse, Black Heart, Tricky, Portishead)

gotta throw in some Tool:

Dreaming of that face again. It's bright and blue and shimmering. Grinning wide and comforting me with it's three warm and wild eyes. On my back and tumbling down that hole and back again rising upand wiping the webs and the dew from my withered eye. In Out In Out In Out A child's rhyme stuck in my head. It said that life is but a dream. I've spent so many years in question to find I've known this all along. "So good to see you. I've missed you so much. So glad it's over. I've missed you so much. Came out to watch you play. Why are you running?" Shrouding all the ground around me. Is this holy crow above me. Black as holes within a memory and blue as our new second sun. I stick my hand into his shadow to pull the pieces from the sand. Which I attempt to reassemble to see just who I might have been. I do not recognize the vessel, but the eyes seem so familiar. Like phosphorescent desert buttons singing one familiar song... "So good to see you. I've missed you so much. So glad it's over. I've missed you so much. Came out to watch you play. Why are you running away?" Prying open my third eye. So good to see you once again. I thought that you were hiding. And you thought that I had run away. Chasing the tail of dogma. I opened my eye and there we were. So good to see you once again I thought that you were hiding from me. And you thought that I had run away. Chasing a trail of smoke and reason. Prying open my third eye.

I'm gonna bump this for a very interesting subject matter. And I am surprised at the interesting music.

 

[HamSupLo]

one hand loves the other
so much on me

born stubborn, me

before you count 123
i will have grown my own private branch
of this tree

you : gardener

domestically
i can obey all of your rules
and still be : be

i never thought i would compromise

let's unite tonight
we shouldn't fight
embrace you tight

i thrive best
hermit style
with a beard and a pipe
and a parrot on each side
but now i can't do this without you

i never thought i would compromise
i never thought i would compromise
i never thought i would compromise

let's unite tonight
we shouldn't fight
embrace you tight
let's unite tonight

one hand ©loves the other
so much on me

we shouldn't fight
embrace you tight
let's unite tonight

let's unite tonight
we shouldn't fight
embrace you tight
let's

- Bjork, "Unison"

pedalling through
the dark currents h
i find an accurate copy
a blueprint
of the pleasure in me

swirling
black lilies
totally ripe

a secret code carved

swirling
black lilies
totally ripe

he offers a handshake
crooked
five fingers
they form a pattern
yet to be matched

swirling
black lilies
totally ripe

on the surface simplicity
but the darkest pit in me
is pagan poetry
pagan poetry

swirling
black lilies
totally ripe

morse : coded : signals
they pulsate : they wake me up
from my
hibernate

on the surface simplicity
but the darkest pit in me
is pagan poetry
pagan poetry

i love him

this time
i'm gonna keep me to myself
this time
i'm gonna keep my all to myself

she loves him

but he makes me want to
hand myself over

she loves him

It's so easy
Happy go lucky
We are the world
we did it

(Touches me on the funny bone)

 

[pyonir]

I Can't Remember Anything
Can't Tell If this Is True or Dream
Deep down Inside I Feel to Scream
this Terrible Silence Stops Me
Now That the War Is Through with Me
I'm Waking up I Can Not See
That There Is Not Much Left of Me
Nothing Is Real but Pain Now

Hold My Breath as I Wish for Death
Oh Please God,wake Me

Back in the Womb its Much Too Real
in Pumps Life That I must Feel
but Can't Look Forward to Reveal
Look to the Time When I'll Live
Fed Through the Tube That Sticks in Me
Just like a Wartime Novelty
Tied to Machines That Make Me Be
Cut this Life off from Me

Hold My Breath as I Wish for Death
Oh Please God,wake Me

Now the World Is Gone I'm Just One
Oh God,help Me Hold My Breath as I Wish for Death
Oh Please God Help Me

Darkness

Imprisoning Me
All That I See
Absolute Horror
I Cannot Live
I Cannot Die
Trapped in Myself
Body My Holding Cell

Landmine

Has Taken My Sight
Taken My Speech
Taken My Hearing
Taken My Arms
Taken My Legs
Taken My Soul
Left Me with Life in Hell



Metallica - One

 

[ThisIsMatt]

Ever since I was a child you always said that I should understand the rules
You take some and give less
Sit high above the rest...don?t you

As I ask a simple question
Cuts me off with his reply
He?s been practicing for decades
Now he thinks I have the time
He flows in and out of riddles
Looking me straight in the eye
But it seems like something?s missing from the days when he was more my size

Ten years older and I?ve finally found my pride
This old man comes rolling home to die
Old feelings make it hard to decide just what it means to me

Everything exists ?tween black and white
You can twist and distort the most blatant of lies
Or just offer up solutions practiced only in mind
I lost half my life to wisdom

So forgive me if I come off sounding bitter
If my words push you away
If I seem surprised to see you lying here in front of me
Just consider what you?re asking and give me a little time
I?m still having trouble breathing cuz up to now I?ve never seen you cry

No son of mine
Should I be sleeping
No soon of mine
As if you never understood that I don?t need your help
Don?t have to save me from myself
Or take me out to prove that I should live my life like you

As I ask a simple question
Cuts me off with his reply
He?s been practicing for decades
But I am listening this time
He flows in and out of riddles
Stories change without the wine
But at least he seems much clearer on how it feels to be my size

Ten years older and I?ve finally found my pride
This old man comes rolling home to die
Old feelings make it harder to see just what it means to me
What it means to me

U2 - Love Is Blindness

Love is blindness
I don't want to see
Won't you wrap the night
Around me
Oh my heart
Love is blindness

In a parked car
In a crowded street
You see your love
Made complete
Thread is ripping
The knot is slipping
Love is blindness

Love is clockworks
And cold steel
Fingers too numb to feel
Squeeze the handle
Blow out the candle
Love is blindness

Love is blindness
I don't want to see
Won't you wrap the night
Around me
Oh my love
Blindness

A little death
Without mourning
No call
And no warning
Baby...a dangerous idea
That almost makes sense

Love is drowning
In a deep well
All the secrets
And no one to tell
Take the money
Honey
Blindness

Love is blindness
I don't want to see
Won't you wrap the night
Around me
Oh my love
Blindness

Great Song Rahvin. My Favorite group.

Here are three of mine.

Pink Floyd - Wish You Were Here

So, so you think you can tell
Heaven from Hell,
Blue skys from pain.
Can you tell a green field
From a cold steel rail?
A smile from a veil?
Do you think you can tell?

And did they get you to trade
Your heros for ghosts?
Hot ashes for trees?
Hot air for a cool breeze?
Cold comfort for change?
And did you exchange
A walk on part in the war
For a lead role in a cage?

How I wish, how I wish you were here.
We're just two lost souls
Swimming in a fish bowl,
Year after year,
Running over the same old ground.
What have we found?
The same old fears.
Wish you were here.

Jackson Browne - The Pretender

I'm going to rent myself a house
In the shade of the freeway
I'm going to pack my lunch in the morning
And go to work each day
And when the evening rolls around
I'll go on home and lay my body down
And when the morning light comes streaming in
I'll get up and do it again
Amen
Say it again
Amen

I want to know what became of the changes
We waited for love to bring
Were they only the fitful dreams
Of some greater awakening
I've been aware of the time going by
They say in the end it's the wink of an eye
And when the morning light comes streaming in
You'll get up and do it again
Amen


Caught between the longing for love
And the struggle for the legal tender
Where the sirens sing and the church bells ring
And the junk man pounds his fender
Where the veterans dream of the fight
Fast asleep at the traffic light
And the children solemnly wait
For the ice cream vendor
Out into the cool of the evening
Strolls the Pretender
He knows that all his hopes and dreams
Begin and end there


Ah the laughter of the lovers
As they run through the night
Leaving nothing for the others
But to choose off and fight
And tear at the world with all their might
While the ships bearing their dreams
Sail out of sight


I'm going to find myself a girl
Who can show me what laughter means
And we'll fill in the missing colors
In each other's paint-by-number dreams
And then we'll put out dark glasses on
And we'll make love until our strength is gone
And when the morning light comes streaming in
We'll get up and do it again
Get it up again


I'm going to be a happy idiot
And struggle for the legal tender
Where the ads take aim and lay their claim
To the heart and the soul of the spender
And believe in whatever may lie
In those things that money can buy
Thought true love could have been a contender
Are you there?
Say a prayer for the Pretender
Who started out so young and strong
Only to surrender

Kansas - Dust In The Wind

I close my eyes
Only for a moment, then the momen't gone
All my dreams
Pass before my eyes, a curiosity
Dust in the wind
All they are is dust in the wind

Same old song
Just a drop of water in an endless sea
All we do
Crumbles to the ground, though we refuse to see
Dust in the wind
All we are is dust in the wind, ohh

Now, don't hang on
Nothing lasts forever but the earth and sky
It slips away
And all your money won't another minute buy
Dust in the wind
All we are is dust in the wind
All we are is dust in the wind

Dust in the wind
Everything is dust in the wind
Everything is dust in the wind
The wind

 

[LiLRiceBoi]

Splintered piece of glass falls in the seat ?gets caught
broken windows, open locks, reminders of the youth we lost
In trying so hard to look away from you
we followed white lines to the sunset
I crash my car everyday the same way

Time to let this pass
(the time it takes, the time it takes to let go)
Time runs through our veins.
(It starts it stops it starts and stops again)
We don't stand a chance in this threadbare time
(the time it takes, the time it takes to let go)
Time to let this pass
(the time it takes, the time it takes to let go)

Staring at the setting sun
No reason to come back again
The twilight world in blue and white
The needle and the damage done

I don?t want to feel this way forever
A dead letter marked return to sender

The broken watch you gave me turns into a compass
Those two hands still point to the same time 12:03, our last goodbye

So push the seats back a little further
I can see the headlights coming
So push the seats back a little further
Roll the windows down and take a breath
I can see the headlights coming
They paint the world in red and broken glass

Time to let this pass
(the time it takes, the time it takes to let go)
Time runs through our veins.
(It starts it stops it starts and stops again)
We don't stand a chance in this threadbare time
(the time it takes, the time it takes to let go)
Time to let this pass
(the time it takes, the time it takes to let go)

Staring at the setting sun
No reason to come back again
The twilight world in blue and white
The needle and the damage done

I don?t want to feel this way forever
A dead letter marked return to sender

The spinning hubcaps set the tempo for the music of a broken window
the cameras are on and the cameras click
We open up the lens and can?t stop

Staring at the setting sun
No reason to come back again
the twilight world in blue and white
the needle and the damage done

I don?t want to feel this way forever
The lights are on and the cameras click
we open up the lens to broken glass

Staring at the setting sun (said it's over)
No reason to come back again (in a flash)
the twilight world in blue and white (and I?ll never)
the needle and the damage done (ever understand)

I don?t want to feel this way forever (understanding?in a car crash)
A dead letter marked return to sender
in a car crash

I think your interpretation on these lyrics will determine if you like them or not. There are many different interpretations possible.

Ben Harper- "The Drugs Don't Work"

All this talk of getting old
Is getting me down my love
Like a cat in a bag
Waiting to drown
This time i've calmed down

And i know your thinking of me
As you lay down on your side
Now the drugs don't work
They just make you worse
But I know i'll see your face again

and now the drugs don't work
They just make you worse
But I know i'll see your face again

But I know i'm on a loosing streak
As I pass down by your street
And if you want a show
Just let me know
And I'll sing in your ear again

Now the drugs don't work
They just make you worse
But I Know i'll see your face again

So baby, Ohhhh
If Heaven calls
I'm coming too
Just like you said
When you leave my life
I'm better off dead

All this talk of getting old
Is getting me down my love
Like a cat in the bag
Waiting to drown
This time i'm holding on.

Drugs don't work
They just make you worse
But I know i'll see your face again

So baby, ohhhhh
If Heaven calls
I'm comming too
And like you said
If you leave my life
I'm better off dead

But if you want a show
Just let me know
And I'll sing in your ear again

Now that the drugs don't work
They just make you worse
But I know I'll see your face again(x4)

Never comming down
Never comming down no more (x2)

yea, I know i'll see your face again.

 

[Nemesis77]

Delerium: Myth

it's a weird game.
i'm lonely without skin.
no end to begin and only
your mind to hide in.
i nudge life.
like an unborn child. a dream
inside but now i live behind your eyes.
i'm uninvited. and i'm only
a memory that comes through.

i'm living in your dreams.
i'm where you cannot be.
i'm way out of your reach.

i'm living in your dreams.
i'm where you cannot see.
is it you or is it me?

i can't protect what you can't forget.
but now i live behind your eyes.
you recognize me as only a memory
that comes through.

i'm living in your dreams.
i'm where you cannot go.
beyond everything you know.
i'm living in your dreams.
you won't find me anywhere.
i've vanished in the air.

Delerium: Fallen Icons

in a dark woods paved with snow living all alone
i forgot long ago what i'm looking for

firecracker lightning seed coming back to me

this is how
you made my heart a hunter
this is how
you made my heart a hunter

i remember my little seed louder than a dream
i let my golden arrow fly to the bottom of the night
no hounds to guide me no army at my back
i'm gonna stand up

firecracker lightning seed coming closer to me

this is how
you made my heart a hunter
this is how
you made my heart a hunter

sunrise burns my fortress down crumbling to the ground
i found my arrow my lightning spark buried in my heart
no hounds to guide me no army at my back
i'm gonna stand up

firecracker lightning seed it was always in me

this is how
you made my heart a hunter
this is how
you made my heart a hunter

 

[thenewnoise]

im supprised to see that people here listen to the black heart possession

Alkaline trio - I lied My Face Off

Well it's not fair, it's not even close
You tied me down where I'm forced to watch
As you poke holes in every part of me
Containing something secretly
Something sacred to me
I lied my face off when I said that I would be okay
It's never fine when you go away
These cuts run deep, these scars are permanent
And always on display
This makes things difficult for me

It's not fair, it's not even close
You fed me the sun, burned me up inside
And watched me choke on everything we did
On everything we lived
Let's see if I can live again
I lied my face off when I said that I would be okay
It's never fine when you go away
These cuts run deep, these scars are permanent
And always on display
This makes things difficult for me

Head like an empty, sterile room
Somehow I made a mess
Like watching newborn babies crack
from work related stress
Head like an empty, sterile room
Somehow I made a mess
Like watching newborn babies crack
from work related stress
I'm bad luck, can't f*ck, got no reflection today
Maybe I'll stay down next time I get hit by a train
By a train
I lied my face off when I said that I would be okay
It's never fine when you go away

THE KINSLAYER - Nightwish

For whom the gun tolls
For whom the prey weeps
Bow before a war
Call it religion

Some wounds never heal
Some tears never will
Dry for the unkind
Cry for mankind

Even the dead cry
-Their only comfort
Kill your friend, I don`t care
Orchid kids, blinded stare

Need to understand
No need to forgive
No truth no sense left to be followed

"Facing this unbearable fear like meeting an old friend"
"Time to die, poor mates, You made me what I am!"

" In this world of a million religions everyone prays the same way"
"Your praying is in vain It`ll all be over soon"
"Father help me, save me a place by your side!"
"There is no god Our creed is but for ourselves"

" Not a hero unless you die. Our species eat the wounded ones"

"Drunk with the blood of your victims
I do feel your pity-wanting pain,
Lust for fame, a deadly game"

"Run away with your impeccable kin!"

"- Good wombs hath borne bad sons..."
Cursing, God, why?
Falling for every lie
Survivors` guilt
In us forevermore

15 candles
Redeemers of this world
Dwell in hypocrisy:
"How were we supposed to know?"


SWANHEART - Nightwish

All those beautiful people
I want to have them all
All those porcelain models
If only I could make them fall

Be my heart a well of love
Flowing free so far above

A wintry eve
Once upon a tale
An Ugly Duckling
Lost in a verse
Of a sparrows carol
Dreaming the stars

Be my heart a well of love
Flowing free so far above

In my world
Love is for poets
Never the famous balcony scene
Just a dying faith
On the heaven's gate

Crystal pond awaits the lorn
Tonight another morn for the lonely one is born


TWO FOR TRAGEDY - Nightwish

Sleep Eden sleep
My fallen son
Slumber in peace

Cease the pain
Life`s just in vain
For us to gain
Nothing but all the same

No healing hand
For your disease
Drinking scorn like water
Cascading with my tears

Beneath the candle bed
Two saddened angels-in heaven, in death

Now let us lie
Sad we lived sad we die
Even in your pride
I never blamed you

A mother`s love
Is a sacrifice
Together sleeping
Keeping it all

No sympathy
No eternity
One light for each undeserved tear

Beneath the candle bed
Two souls with everything yet to be said
