favirit songs lyrics

[walka92]

[hide=Hands Held High - Linkin Park]Turn my mike up louder I got to say something

 

Light weights step to the side when we come in

 

 

 

Feel it in your chest the syllables get pumping

 

People on the street they panic and start running

 

 

 

Words on loose leaf sheet complete coming

 

I jump in my mind and summon the rhyme, I'm dumping

 

 

 

Healing the blind I promise to let the sun in

 

Sick of the dark ways we march to the drum and

 

 

 

Jump when they tell us that they wanna see jumping

 

[bleep] that I wanna see some fists pumping

 

 

 

Risk something, take back what's yours

 

Say something that you know they might attack you for

 

 

 

Cause I'm sick of being treated like I have before

 

Like it's stupid standing for what I'm standing for

 

 

 

Like this war's really just a different brand of war

 

Like it doesn't cater the rich and abandon poor

 

 

 

Like they understand you in the back of the jet

 

When you can't put gas in your tank

 

 

 

These [bleep] are laughing their way to the bank and cashing the cheque

 

Asking you to have compassion and have some respect

 

 

 

For a leader so nervous in an obvious way

 

Stuttering and mumbling for nightly news to replay

 

 

 

And the rest of the world watching at the end of the day

 

In their living room laughing like "what did he say?"

 

 

 

Amen, Amen, Amen, Amen, Amen

 

 

 

In my living room watching but I am not laughing

 

Cause when it gets tense I know what might happen

 

 

 

World is cold the bold men take action

 

Have to react or get blown into fractions

 

 

 

Ten years old it's something to see

 

Another kid my age drugged under a jeep

 

 

 

Taken and bound and found later under a tree

 

I wonder if he had thought the next one could be me

 

 

 

Do you see the soldiers they're out today

 

They brush the dust from bullet proof vests away

 

 

 

It's ironic at times like this you pray

 

But a bomb blew the mosque up yesterday

 

 

 

There's bombs in the buses, bikes, roads

 

Inside your market, your shops, your clothes

 

 

 

My dad he's got a lot of fear I know

 

But enough pride inside not to let that show

 

 

 

My brother had a book he would hold with pride

 

A little red cover with a broken spine

 

 

 

On the back, he hand-wrote a quote inside

 

When the rich wage war it's the poor who die

 

 

 

Meanwhile, the leader just talks away

 

Stuttering and mumbling for nightly news to replay

 

 

 

And the rest of the world watching at the end of the day

 

both scared and angry like "what did he say?"

 

 

 

Amen, Amen, Amen, Amen, Amen

 

 

 

With hands held High into the sky so blue

 

The ocen opens up to swallow you.[/hide]

i was just listening to that, lol

[arizark]

[hide=3005 - Scars on Broadway]Let's clap our hands,

 

for the president

 

and Jesus Christ

 

and did I mentioned Charlie Manson and everybody else, who was nice.

 

 

 

Let's sing a song,

 

for the people scared..

 

searching in the air

 

for your searching hard to see that I'll be there.

 

 

 

Shotting up your world,

 

watching all the ressurection junkies losing ground

 

Yeah I'll be there,

 

shotting up your world

 

watching all the ressurection junkies losing ground

 

 

 

Let's do high five,

 

for a genocide,

 

and the internet

 

and all the communications skills that are lost, when we are dead.

 

 

 

You'll never survive 3005,

 

while you'll be sinking in the ocean

 

I'll be in my space ship still alive!

 

 

 

Shotting up your world,

 

watching all the ressurection junkies losing ground

 

Yeah I'll be there,

 

shotting up your world

 

watching all the ressurection junkies losing ground

 

 

 

Shotting up your world,

 

watching all the ressurection junkies losing ground

 

Yeah I'll be there,

 

shotting up your world

 

watching all the ressurection junkies losing ground

 

 

 

Let's clap our hands,

 

for the president

 

and Mickey Mouse

 

every other [bleep] that's burning up in this house![/hide]

 

Probably one of my favourite songs at the moment

[warri0r45]

[hide=In Death - Is Life by Meshuggah]So imminently visible - this cloaked innocent guilt

 

Sentenced to a lifetime, a second of structured chaos

 

Trampled by the ferocious, raging crowds of solitude

 

I'm the soil beneath me soaking up the sustenance of my own death

 

 

 

Extradited to the gods of chance, the deities of all things random

 

Alive, multicolored, twitching in their dead monochrome world[/hide]

 

 

 

[hide=Sum by Meshuggah]Vision will blind. Severance ties. Median am I. True are all lies[/hide]

 

Both from the album Catch 33. It's a concept album, the concept being paradoxes and contradictions.

 

 

 

 

 

[hide=Third Eye by 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 up

 

And 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?"

 

 

 

Shroud-ing 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[/hide]

 

Or just about anything by Tool, really.

[Lateralus]

It really would be easy to post any of Maynard's lyrics, he's such a clever guy. Just because I'm listening to it just now and it's semi-indicative of my current mindset, I'll go with Vicarious.

 

 

 

[hide=Tool - Vicarious]Eye on the TV

 

'cause tragedy thrills me

 

Whatever flavor it happens to be

 

 

 

Like:

 

"Killed by the husband" ...

 

"Drowned by the ocean" ...

 

"Shot by his own son" ...

 

"She used a poison in his tea,

 

Then (she) kissed him goodbye"

 

That's my kind of story

 

It's no fun til someone dies.

 

 

 

Don't look me at like I am a monster

 

Frown out your one face, but with the other (you)

 

Stare like a junkie into the TV

 

Stare like a zombie while the mother holds her child,

 

Watches him die,

 

Hands to the sky cryin "why, oh why?"

 

 

 

Cause I need to watch things die from a distance

 

Vicariously, I live while the whole world dies

 

You all need it too - don't lie.

 

 

 

Why can't we just admit it?

 

Why can't we just admit it?

 

We won't give pause until the blood is flowin'

 

Neither the brave nor bold

 

Nor brightest of stories told

 

We won't give pause until the blood is flowin'

 

 

 

I need to watch things die from a good safe distance

 

Vicariously, I live while the whole world dies

 

You all feel the same so why can't we just admit it?

 

 

 

Blood like rain fallin' down

 

Drum on grave and ground

 

 

 

Part vampire, part warrior,

 

Carnivore and voyeur

 

Stare at the transmittal.

 

Sing to the death rattle.

 

 

 

La, la, la, la, la, la, la-lie (x4)

 

 

 

Credulous at best

 

Your desire to believe in

 

Angels in the hearts of men.

 

But pull your head on out (of) your hippie haze

 

And give a listen

 

Shouldn't have to say it all again

 

 

 

The universe is hostile

 

So impersonal

 

Devour to survive

 

So it is, so it's always been ...

 

 

 

We all feed on tragedy.

 

It's like blood to a vampire.

 

 

 

Vicariously, I live while the whole world dies

 

Much better you than I.[/hide]

 

 

 

Has any Smiths/Morrissey been posted yet? He's impossible to ignore if you're talking about good lyricists.

 

 

 

 

 

[hide=The Smiths - There Is A Light That Never Goes Out]Take me out tonight

 

Where theres music and theres people

 

And they're young and alive

 

Driving in your car

 

I never never want to go home

 

Because I haven't got one

 

Anymore

 

 

 

Take me out tonight

 

Because I want to see people and i

 

Want to see life

 

Driving in your car

 

Oh, please don't drop me home

 

Because its not my home, its their

 

Home, and I'm welcome no more

 

 

 

And if a double-decker bus

 

Crashes into us

 

To die by your side

 

Is such a heavenly way to die

 

And if a ten-ton truck

 

Kills the both of us

 

To die by your side

 

Well, the pleasure - the privilege is mine

 

 

 

Take me out tonight

 

Take me anywhere, I don't care

 

I don't care, I don't care

 

And in the darkened underpass

 

I thought oh god, my chance has come at last

 

(but then a strange fear gripped me and i

 

Just couldn't ask)

 

 

 

Take me out tonight

 

Oh, take me anywhere, I dont care

 

I don't care, I don't care

 

Driving in your car

 

I never never want to go home

 

Because I haven't got one ...

 

Oh, I haven't got one

 

 

 

And if a double-decker bus

 

Crashes into us

 

To die by your side

 

Is such a heavenly way to die

 

And if a ten-ton truck

 

Kills the both of us

 

To die by your side

 

Well, the pleasure - the privilege is mine

 

 

 

Oh, there is a light and it never goes out

 

There is a light and it never goes out[/hide]

 

 

 

Finally, Dylan at his bitter best.

 

 

 

[hide=Bob Dylan - Idiot Wind]Someone's got it in for me, they're planting stories in the press

 

Whoever it is I wish they'd cut it out but when they will I can only guess.

 

They say I shot a man named Gray and took his wife to Italy,

 

She inherited a million bucks and when she died it came to me.

 

I can't help it if I'm lucky.

 

 

 

People see me all the time and they just can't remember how to act

 

Their minds are filled with big ideas, images and distorted facts.

 

Even you, yesterday you had to ask me where it was at,

 

I couldn't believe after all these years, you didn't know me better than that

 

Sweet lady.

 

 

 

Idiot wind, blowing every time you move your mouth,

 

Blowing down the backroads headin' south.

 

Idiot wind, blowing every time you move your teeth,

 

You're an idiot, babe.

 

It's a wonder that you still know how to breathe.

 

 

 

I ran into the fortune-teller, who said beware of lightning that might strike

 

I haven't known peace and quiet for so long I can't remember what it's like.

 

There's a lone soldier on the cross, smoke pourin' out of a boxcar door,

 

You didn't know it, you didn't think it could be done, in the final end he won the wars

 

After losin' every battle.

 

 

 

I woke up on the roadside, daydreamin' 'bout the way things sometimes are

 

Visions of your chestnut mare shoot through my head and are makin' me see stars.

 

You hurt the ones that I love best and cover up the truth with lies.

 

One day you'll be in the ditch, flies buzzin' around your eyes,

 

Blood on your saddle.

 

 

 

Idiot wind, blowing through the flowers on your tomb,

 

Blowing through the curtains in your room.

 

Idiot wind, blowing every time you move your teeth,

 

You're an idiot, babe.

 

It's a wonder that you still know how to breathe.

 

 

 

It was gravity which pulled us down and destiny which broke us apart

 

You tamed the lion in my cage but it just wasn't enough to change my heart.

 

Now everything's a little upside down, as a matter of fact the wheels have stopped,

 

What's good is bad, what's bad is good, you'll find out when you reach the top

 

You're on the bottom.

 

 

 

I noticed at the ceremony, your corrupt ways had finally made you blind

 

I can't remember your face anymore, your mouth has changed, your eyes

 

don't look into mine.

 

The priest wore black on the seventh day and sat stone-faced while the building

 

burned.

 

I waited for you on the running boards, near the cypress trees, while the springtime

 

turned Slowly into autumn.

 

 

 

Idiot wind, blowing like a circle around my skull,

 

From the Grand Coulee Dam to the Capitol.

 

Idiot wind, blowing every time you move your teeth,

 

You're an idiot, babe.

 

It's a wonder that you still know how to breathe.

 

 

 

I can't feel you anymore, I can't even touch the books you've read

 

Every time I crawl past your door, I been wishin' I was somebody else instead.

 

Down the highway, down the tracks, down the road to ecstasy,

 

I followed you beneath the stars, hounded by your memory

 

And all your ragin' glory.

 

 

 

I been double-crossed now for the very last time and now I'm finally free,

 

I kissed goodbye the howling beast on the borderline which separated you from me.

 

You'll never know the hurt I suffered nor the pain I rise above,

 

And I'll never know the same about you, your holiness or your kind of love,

 

And it makes me feel so sorry.

 

 

 

Idiot wind, blowing through the buttons of our coats,

 

Blowing through the letters that we wrote.

 

Idiot wind, blowing through the dust upon our shelves,

 

We're idiots, babe.

 

It's a wonder we can even feed ourselves.[/hide]

[How2PK]

The lryics of Dylan's Highway 61 always make laugh.

 

 

 

[hide=]Oh God said to Abraham, "Kill me a son"

 

Abe says, "Man, you must be puttin' me on"

 

God say, "No." Abe say, "What?"

 

God say, "You can do what you want Abe, but

 

The next time you see me comin' you better run"

 

Well Abe says, "Where do you want this killin' done?"

 

God says, "Out on Highway 61."

 

 

 

Well Georgia Sam he had a bloody nose

 

Welfare Department they wouldn't give him no clothes

 

He asked poor Howard where can I go

 

Howard said there's only one place I know

 

Sam said tell me quick man I got to run

 

Ol' Howard just pointed with his gun

 

And said that way down on Highway 61.

 

 

 

Well Mack the Finger said to Louie the King

 

I got forty red white and blue shoe strings

 

And a thousand telephones that don't ring

 

Do you know where I can get rid of these things

 

And Louie the King said let me think for a minute son

 

And he said yes I think it can be easily done

 

Just take everything down to Highway 61.

 

 

 

Now the fifth daughter on the twelfth night

 

Told the first father that things weren't right

 

My complexion she said is much too white

 

He said come here and step into the light he says hmm you're right

 

Let me tell the second mother this has been done

 

But the second mother was with the seventh son

 

And they were both out on Highway 61.

 

 

 

Now the rovin' gambler he was very bored

 

He was tryin' to create a next world war

 

He found a promoter who nearly fell off the floor

 

He said I never engaged in this kind of thing before

 

But yes I think it can be very easily done

 

We'll just put some bleachers out in the sun

 

And have it on Highway 61.[/hide]

 

 

 

 

 

Radiohead's Pyramid Song is very special to me as well.

 

 

 

[hide=]I jumped in the river and what did I see?

 

Black-eyed angels swam with me

 

A moon full of stars and astral cars

 

All the things I used to see

 

All my lovers were there with me

 

All my past and futures

 

And we all went to heaven in a little row boat

 

There was nothing to fear and nothing to doubt

 

 

 

I jumped into the river

 

Black-eyed angels swam with me

 

A moon full of stars and astral cars

 

And all the things I used to see

 

All my lovers were there with me

 

All my past and futures

 

And we all went to heaven in a little row boat

 

There was nothing to fear and nothing to doubt

 

 

 

There was nothing to fear and nothing to doubt

 

There was nothing to fear and nothing to doubt[/hide]

 

 

 

Just two that I realy like.

[thered]

the strokes- 12:51

 

[hide=]Talk to me now I'm older

 

Your friend told you 'cause I told her

 

Friday nights have been lonely

 

Change your plans and then phone me.

 

 

 

We could go and get 40s

 

[bleep] goin' to that party

 

Oh really, your folks are away now?

 

Alright, let's go, you convinced me.

 

 

 

12:51 is the time my voice

 

Found the words i sought...

 

Is it this stage I want?

 

 

 

The world is shutting out...for us.

 

We were tense for sure,

 

But we was confident...

 

 

 

Kiss me now that I'm older

 

I won't try to control you

 

Friday nights have been lonely

 

Take it slow but don't warn me

 

 

 

We'd go out and get 40s

 

Then we'd go to some party

 

Oh really, your folks are away now?

 

Alright I'm coming...

 

 

 

I'll be right there.[/hide]

[FallenDarknessAngel]

Nymphetamine By Cradle of Flith

 

[hide=]Lead to the river

 

Midsummer, I waved

 

A 'V' of black swans

 

On with hope to the grave

 

All through Red September

 

With skies fire-paved

 

I begged you appear

 

Like a thorn for the holy ones

 

 

 

Cold was my soul

 

Untold was the pain

 

I faced when you left me

 

A rose in the rain

 

So I swore to thy razor

 

That never, enchained

 

Would your dark nails of faith

 

Be pushed through my veins again

 

 

 

Bared on your tomb

 

I am a prayer for your loneliness

 

And would you ever soon

 

Come above unto me?

 

For once upon a time

 

From the binds of your lowliness

 

I could always find

 

The right slot for your sacred key

 

 

 

Six feet deep is the incision

 

In my heart, that barless prison

 

Discolours all with tunnel vision

 

Sunsetter

 

Nymphetamine

 

Sick and weak from my condition

 

This lust, a vampyric addiction

 

To her alone in full submission

 

None better

 

Nymphetamine

 

 

 

Nymphetamine, nymphetamine

 

Nymphetamine girl

 

Nymphetamine, nymphetamine

 

My nymphetamine girl

 

 

 

Wracked with your charm

 

I am circled like prey

 

Back in the forest

 

Where whispers persuade

 

More sugar trails

 

More white lady laid

 

Than pillars of salt

 

(Keeping Sodom at night at bay)

 

 

 

Fold to my arms

 

Hold their mesmeric sway

 

And dance out to the moon

 

As we did in those golden days

 

 

 

Christening stars

 

I remember the way

 

We were needle and spoon

 

Mislaid in the burning hay

 

 

 

Bared on your tomb

 

I am a prayer for your loneliness

 

And would you ever soon

 

Come above unto me?

 

For once upon a time

 

From the binds of your holiness

 

I could always find

 

The right slot for your sacred key

 

 

 

Six feet deep is the incision

 

In my heart, that barless prison

 

Discolours all with tunnel vision

 

Sunsetter

 

Nymphetamine

 

Sick and weak from my condition

 

This lust, a vampyric addiction

 

To her alone in full submission

 

None better

 

Nymphetamine

 

 

 

Sunsetter

 

Nymphetamine

 

None better

Nymphetamine, nymphetamine

Wait and Bleed by Slipknot

 

[hide=]I've felt the hate rise up in me...

 

Kneel down and clear the stone of leaves...

 

I wander out where you can't see...

 

Inside my shell, I wait and bleed...

 

 

 

Goodbye!

 

 

 

I wipe it off on tile, the light is brighter this time

 

Everything is 3D blasphemy

 

My eyes are red and gold, the hair is standing straight up

 

This is not the way I pictured me

 

I CAN'T CONTROL MY SHAKES!

 

How the hell did I get here?

 

Something about this, so very wrong...

 

I have to laugh out loud, I wish I didn't like this

 

Is it a dream or a memory?

 

 

 

GET OUTTA MY HEAD CUZ I DON'T NEED THIS!

 

Why I didn't I see this?

 

I'm a victim - Manchurian Candidate

 

I - HAVE - SINNED - BY - JUST

 

Makin' my mind up and takin' your breath away

 

 

 

GOODBYE!

 

 

 

You haven't learned a thing

 

I haven't changed a thing

 

My flesh was in my bones

 

The pain was always free

 

 

 

I've felt the hate rise up in me...

 

Kneel down and clear the stone of leaves...

 

I wander out where you can't see...

 

Inside my shell, I wait and bleed...

 

 

 

AND IT WAITS FOR YOU![/hide]

 

Bite to Break Skin By Senses Fail

 

[hide=]So let me take this medicine

 

To quench my love for violent things

 

My swan song will

 

Be like a bullet laced in anger

 

As the razor cuts a soft spot

 

On your heel.

 

 

 

(Each breath) is getting slower

 

(This war) is getting harder

 

To fight by myself

 

(Sick waves) of bitter fashion,

 

(Ripped down) the shield that I have

 

Tears rain from above.

 

 

 

Do you see?

 

The life I lead?

 

 

 

So follow me into the sun,

 

And I will bleed, the poisons dry.

 

 

 

These bayonet scars never cease

 

To blind the light shed from the beast

 

And all we do is hate.

 

 

 

(Eyes shot) from constant visions.

 

(Angels) are rendered useless

 

Good has lost it's heart.

 

 

 

Do you see?

 

The life I lead?

 

 

 

So follow me into the sun,

 

And I will bleed, the poisons dry.

 

 

 

For you [x2]

 

(For you!) [x3]

 

 

 

Bite to break skin,

 

Don't give the secret,

 

My stoic face,

 

Beaten with passion

 

The phoenix will die

 

Inside the fire storm

 

I am the son

 

So follow my footsteps.

Shattered By the Sun By Unearth

 

[hide=]Crossed a plain that left behind dark days.

 

Filled a void that I thought could not be replaced.

 

Now gone it seems so out or reach.

 

I have lived. I have felt.

 

It's what we need.

 

Gone.

 

What have I done?

 

Found what I've been looking for.

 

One time I believe my eyes.

 

This time.

 

This time my instincts controlled me.

 

No need to search on for any more.

 

I feel as one with myself.

 

I look no more.

 

Now a lifetime decision.

 

What will the future hold?

 

This time they lied.

 

I felt you slip away.

 

A feeling under my skin.

 

I tried again and again.

 

I did not save you this time.

 

Holding on to something that I once believed in.

 

Will time show me if this was really meant to be.

 

Show me what this really means to you-fall even though I showed-you-everything that I stand for.

 

I hate everything without you.

 

Life falls and crumblers in my hand.

 

Faith is dead.

 

It's something I can't stand.

 

Dreams, hope, gone.

 

Just a one time thing.

 

Far away are the days that we once shared.

 

I never thought I could change.

 

I would be walking a dead day.

 

You believed in me and knew I could change.

 

Came in my life and became my best friend.

 

Now I have been forved away.

 

Unwillingly out on my own.

 

I never wanted to lose this much.

 

You broke a trust that was our own.

 

I feel shattered by the sun.

 

Now I'm shattered by the sun.[/hide]
