Lyrics Lyrics that appeal to you today... 2006-2023

^^thought you'd maybe dig this karmaKin, i've never thought about it that way...

"surrender then start your engines
you'll know quite soon what my mistake was
for those on horseback or dog sled
you turn on at the bend in the road
I hear she still grants forgiveness
although I willingly forgot her
the offering is molasses and you say
I guess I'm an underwater thing so I
guess I can't take it personally
I guess I'm an underwater thing I'm
Liquid running
There's a sea secret in me
It's plain to see it is rising
But I must be flowing liquid diamonds
liquid diamonds liquid diamonds like rain
diamonds
Calling for my soul
At the corners of the world
I know she's playing poker with the rest of the stragglers
calling for my soul at the corners of the world
I know she's playing poker
and if your friends don't come back to you
and you know this is madness
a lilac mess in your prom dress
and you say
I guess I'm and underwater thing"

I got a feeling, I look up to the little bird
That glides across the sky, yeah
I wish I had the wings to fly away from here..
 
21 Guns - Green Day

Do you know what's worth fighting for?
When it's not worth dying for?
Does it take your breath away and you feel yourself suffocating?
Does the pain weigh out the pride?
And you look for a place to hide?
Did someone break your heart inside,you're in ruins

One, 21 Guns
Lay down your arms
Give up the fight
One, 21 Guns
Throw up your arms into the sky
You and I ...

When you're at the end of the road
And you lost all sense of control
And your thoughts have taken their toll
When your mind breaks the spirit of your soul
Your faith walks on broken glass and the hangover doesn't pass
Nothing's ever built to last, you're in ruins

One, 21 Guns
Lay down your arms
Give up the fight
One, 21 Guns
Throw up your arms into the sky
You and I ...

Did you try to live on your own?
When you burned down the house and home?
Did you stand too close to the fire?
Like a liar looking for forgiveness from a stone
When it's time to live and let die
And you can't get another try
Something inside this heart has died,you're in ruins

One, 21 Guns
Lay down your arms
Give up the fight
One, 21 Guns
Throw up your arms into the sky
One, 21 Guns
Lay down your arms
Give up the fight
One, 21 Guns
Throw up your arms into the sky

You and I

(time to end some particularly poisonous friendships... my judgement on people over this last year or so has been particularly skewed and I refuse to be made to feel inferior by people who don't know what it's like to be genuine.)
 
And if I don't make it, know that
I loved you all along
just like sunny days that
we ignore because
we're all dumb and jaded
and I hope to God I figure out what's wrong
 
Something about this song hits me right in the <3

I always get all choked up at some point before the end of it. :)

Robyn/Christian Falk - Dream On
Thugs and badmen
punks and lifers
locked up interns
pigs and snitches

Rest your weary heads, all is well

You won't be strip-searched, torn up tonight
you won't be cut up, bleeding tonight
you won't be strung out, cold, shaking to your bones
wishing you were anywhere else but right here
So dream on

Thieves and muggers
tricks and hustlers
cheats and traitors
scum and low-lives

Rest your weary heads, all is well

You won't be sad or broken tonight
you won't be squealed on, ripped off tonight
you won't be back-stabbed, double cross, face down
teeth knocked out, lying in a gutter somewhere
So dream on

So dream on

Freaks and junkies
fakes and phonies
drunks and cowards
manic preachers

Rest your weary heads, all is well

You won't be pushed or messed with tonight
you won't be lied to, ruffed up tonight
You won't be insane, paranoid, obsessed
aimlessly wandering through the dark night
So dream on

So dream on

You won't be insane, paranoid, obsessed
aimlessly wandering through the dark night

So dream on

The Blood Brothers - Camouflage, Camouflage

"Alice, where's your tongue?"
she said, "look in the encyclopedia's ceaseless chatter."
"Alice, where's your hair?"
she said, "look in the sharp of a well-worn butterfly knife."
"Alice, where's your teeth?"
she said, "look at the piano. they're dangling from every single chord."
"Alice, where's your lips?"
"look in the empires roaring; the tyrants getting so loud and boring."
"Alice, where's your man?"
"look in this black eye written like the o in the word goodbye."
"Alice, where's your house?"
"it's built on the hush of your favorite record's screeching halt."
"Alice, where's your clothes?"
"they'll be sweet sheets around your eyes when street boars eat you alive!."
"Alice, where's your swans?"
"flying in hotel rooms stealing stereos."

mister the sky's a contortionist.
the streets are skipping records blaring hiss.
camouflage, camouflage.
the city's draped in camouflage.
the taxis are jaguars throwing fits.
subways are subterranean bullets.
camouflage, camouflage.
the city's draped in camouflage.

can't you see the sidewalks are just snakes peeling off last year's skin?
can't you find your own face shining in the sky's false reflection?
where's your voice?
where's your dress?
where's your bones?
draped in camouflage.
where's your beach?
where's your sky?
where's your clouds?
draped in camouflage.

She says give me one good reason not to empty the heart of all its zeros and ones,
not to smash that Telecaster before it births a thousand useless slums.
And love bit you in the throat while you were staring at the sea.
all the girls in Montreal are smashing skateboards in the street.
And it's 4 AM, she's at your door with a suitcase, in a nightgown.

we slip through mansions with fences full-grown.
we slip through streetlights in crooked rows.
i saw the sky split in two: one half jealous and one half cruel.
i felt my chest cave in under a pile of synthetic grins.
the fields are day-glo under sobbing rainbows dragged through filthy
thoughts, false applause and camouflage.

i couldn't see the solar system,
it was camouflaged as a tape loop repeating.
i couldn't see the glorious meadow,
it was camouflaged as a smashed stained glass window
i couldn't see the love and affection,
it was camouflaged as a jungle of erections.
i couldn't see the skeletal lightning,
it was camouflaged as a young machete.
 
The years went by
And we lost sight
Of the guys back then
We used to rule the night

And still I never will forget
Or will regret
Those times that we had

We were the kings of night
As we stood side by side
We used to rock the place until the early light

I remember how we sang along
To every song
Those times, they are gone

But still, I feel
I miss those days
We spent together
Yeah-yeah-yeah

Sometimes I wish I could turn back time
And be there once again
And in my head I see the pictures
Of how we used to be

So one thing will remain
'Cause I still love the memories of those days

We were young
Living for the moment
Never thinking about tomorrow
About the things to come

We were careless
Living for the music
Untouchable
'Cause we were sent together as one

We were strong
Depending on each other
It was us against the world
We played it by our rules

We were fearless
Living like a rebel
Unbreakable
'Cause we were sent together as one
 
I'm reaching in my cupboard for a painkiller
Ah-uh, ah-uh, for a painkiller, killer, killer

You see, we work hard, play hard
Man, I gotta stay charged
Can't sleep, tired out
Trouble on my radar
Runnin' 'round live wire

Had anotha Red Bull
Everybody's burnin', baby
Let me come and get a pull
Isn't it incredible
That I'm even still awake?
Still alive, still I take
Poison that debilitates

Fuck a little line
We can go ahead and kill a K
Livin' in the killer's state
Maybe that's a good excuse

See me taking shots at the bar
Like I'm bulletproof
Now my belly full of juice
I'm walking every day with a
Bruised lip, battered eye
Beat up stained liver

Ah-uh, ah-uh
I'm reaching in my cupboard for a painkiller
Uh, uh, uh, I need another painkiller
Uh, reaching in my cupboard for a painkiller
Uh, uh, uh, uh, I need another painkiller

You thought you could take it out
But the world collapse
And you can't see out of it now
You go crazy, baby

Now we live fast, die young
Wish I never tried none
Saturated chemical
But I don't wanna die mum
Maybe you could try some

No point wasting it
First it was a little bit
But now I got my face in it
Run around chasin' it

Everything is so hot
Everybody's screw faced
Looking like so raw
Pressure and it won't stop
Pushing up my heart rate
Arguments and attitude
Mate, you don't wanna start me

Listen man, I can't wait
Now I got a closed fist
Woke up shivering and
Swimming in my own piss
It's just my own risk
A real brain splitta

Ah-uh, ah-uh
I'm reaching in my cupboard for a painkiller
Uh, uh, uh, I need another painkiller
 
you may or may not have heard of Mickey Avalon... kind of rap, but not quite.

Going Back to Rehab...
Bang Bang tryin to find a vein
i nodded off for a second and got up insane.



or

I Get Even
A bird in the bush for the kush in the closet
I am the pusher-man, I am the product
Searchin' for a new narcotic
I ran to the crossroads, signed on the dotted

Bullseye, hit the target
Deaf motherfucker, leading your retarded kids
You should have never started this,
Now Mickey bought a shotgun, and a box of cartridges

So get your moms on the line
I'll pass the phone, you can say goodbye
I'm a lover not a fighter, but I take what's mine
Yeah I'm high motherfucker, not stupid or blind

OR
Friends and Lovers...
All my friends and all my lovers are... dead
Some from cheap narcotics and others from... lead
The filthy rich and the dirt-dirt poor
Are all the same when they can't take no more
'Cause all my friends and all my lovers are... dead

A slit wrist leaves a mess
On the breakfast table, oh yes
Betta' cut deep 'fore you go to sleep
But in the morning you're the one who gonna have to clean

then there is
Say What You Will
Ive got the blues so bad i can hardly stand
and ive been fishin for a vein since a quarter to 10

and the WHOLE song
Rock Bottom
...
do i save the day or hit the op's instead
i stay loyal to the foil
Burnt Reynolds
Makin the ladies of the 80s just tremble.
 
and then there is always Blue October
Weight of the World

~~did i mention that my birthname is Lyric. lol i love words.

A blackout in the room again
a busted lip and broken skin.
I wake up in the bathroom
and dare not bother asking
why the mirror's craked and all I see
are shards of glass inside of me.

There's voices there to dare me,
my father's here to scare me.
and My mother she sits beyond the door she's
curled up crying on the floor,
look at what her son's done.

When the weight of all the world's gone wrong.
wrong again.
Gone fucking wrong again.

Well liars they leave a guilty trail.
let me tell you I've been lying for years.
That must be why I'm standing in this space.
constantly over and over Im Disregarding that I've created these monsters
that are on both of my sides,
So I wipe the blood from both of their eyes.
From all four of their eyes.

And while I wait for wounds to heal
I see you by the window sil,
your heart's torn out
a plastic spoon
when honesty lit up that room
so I stole the pillowcase to clean
this mess I've made of someones dream.
Now you've seen what I've done,

when the weight of all the world's gone wrong again
gone fucking wrong again.

This room is old and wise
and I fall onto the bed and wonder,
"How did I get here?"
I was a little boy who would argue with a tree
go ahead thump his head
he'll turn back to normal.

Now why is that what I see?
Don't bother trusting me
don't bother waiting
don't bother changing things that won't give into changing
just let me go away.
I'm packed down whenever.
Let's go.
Let's really really go.
 
Alice in Chains "God Am"

So Lord I see you grinning.
Must be grand always winning.
How proud are you being able to gather faith from fable?
 
Rock chick of the century
Is acting like she used to be
Dancing like there's no-one there
Before she ever seemed to care
Now she wouldn't dare
It's so rock and roll to be alone

Mr Rock and Roll - Amy McDonald
 
"still i cant believe this day
switch me into stand-bye-mode
until someOne switches play."

Oasis - Sunday Morning Call


Here's another sunday morning call

Yer hear yer head-a-banging on the door

Slip your shoes on and then out you crawl

Into a day that couldn't give you more

But what for?


And in your head do you feel

What you're not supposed to feel

You take what you want

But you won't get it for free

You need more time

Cos your thoughts and words won't last forever more

But i'm not sure if it ever works out right

But it's ok. It's all right


When yer lonely and you start to hear

The little voices in your head at night

You will only sniff away the tears

So you can dance until the morning light

At what price?


And in your head do you feel

What you're not supposed to feel

You take what you want

But you won't get it for free

You need more time

Cos your thoughts and words won't last forever more

But I'm not sure if it ever works out right

But it's ok. It's all right


And in your head do you feel

What you're not supposed to feel

When you take what you want

You don't get hope for free

You need more time

Cos your thoughts and words won't last forever more

And I'm not sure if it'll ever, ever, ever work out right

Will it ever, ever, ever work out right?

Cos it never, never, never works out right.
 
(your voice is sweet but it drips with poison)
"promise made can not be broken
give me time to smell the roses"
(promises made give me time)

Hello - Shakespear's Sister




Woke up this morning and the streets were full of cars

All bright and shiny like they'd just arrived from Mars

And as I stumbled through last nights drunken debris

The paperboy screamed out the headlines in the street


Another war and now the pound is looking weak

And tell me have you read about the latest freak?

We're bingo numbers and our names are obsolete

Why do I feel bitter when I should be feeling sweet


Hello, hello turn your radio on

Is there anybody out there?

Help me sing my song

La la la life is a strange thing

Just when you think you learned how to use it

It's gone


Woke up this morning and my head was in a daze

A brave new world has dawned upon the human race

Where words are meaning less and everything's surreal

Gonna have to reach my friends to find out how I feel


And if I taste the honey is it really sweet

And do I eat it with my hands or with my feet?

Does anybody really listen when I speak

Or will I have to say it all again next week


Hello, hello turn your radio on

Is there anybody out there?

Help me sing my song


Hello, hello turn your radio on

Is there anybody out there?

Tell me what went wrong

La la la life is a strange thing

Life is a strange thing


Hello, hello turn your radio on

Is there anybody out there?

Help me sing my song

La la la life is a strange thing

Just when you think you learned how to use it

It's gone
 
Sink within your thoughts at night
Seeing dark but feeling light
Take your time but don't be late
Come inside, don't hesitate.

I've got it all worked out
I've got it figured out
I've got it all worked out
I've got it down.

Time has come to take you out
You can run and scream and shout
Sleeping now, it's calling you
To the place you knew.

Darkened eyes will stare at you
Take the pill it's there for you
Disappear into the sky
Disappear and don't ask why
 
TearGardenIn - Search Of My Rose

"I found you crying outside on the wall of Devil's Well...
A hangman's knot around your foot and praying for the spell
to be shattered. May I be the one to rip those shackles clean away
and lead you to a place where loneliness is tackled with a kiss?
A kiss that has no ropes, no strings, and no obligations.
I don't owe you; be quite sure that you don't owe me."

11""Sir," said the woman, "You don't even have a bucket, and the well is deep. So where do you get this 'living water'?"
~
13 "He said, "Everyone who drinks from this water will get thirsty again."
15 "Sir," the woman said to Him, "give me this water so I won't get thirsty and come here to draw water."
16 "Go call your husband," He told her, "and come back here."
17 "I don't have a husband," She answered. "You have correctly said, 'I don't have a husband,' " He said.
18 "For you've had five husbands, and the man you now have is not your husband. What you have said is true."
The Women At The Well
 
"
splitting sky splitting sky
little flat pieces
words of blood have lost their pictures
separating at last
separating
separate them
~
life offers the goldenMass
at hark you pay stars display secrets
secrets
gentle movements
have it now"
