CHEER UP

"Something's wrong, but I don't know what
Wondering how, with all the things I've got
Life is good, but the pain don't stop
Cause I'm holding on, so I give it up
Cheer up, cheer up, put a smile on your face
Wake up, wake up, take me out of this place
Rise up, rise up, we are the human race
Cheer up, cheer up, put a smile on your face

So if you really go the whole way and see how
you feel at the prospect of vanishing forever
Have all your efforts, and all your achievements
and all your attainments turning into dust and nothingness
What is the feeling
What happens to you?
It's a curious thing, that in the worlds poetry, this is a very common theme
The earthly hope men set their hearts upon turns ashes, or it prospers
and a non- like snow upon the deserts dusty face lighting
a little hour or two and is gone

So in this way, by seeing that nothingness is the fundamental reality
And you see it's your reality
Then how can anything contaminate you
All the idea of you being scared
And put out and worried, and so on, this is nothing, it's a dream
Because you're really nothing.
So cheer up

All the sun and the stars and the mountains, and rivers
And the good men and bad men, and the animals
And the insects, and the whole bit.
All are contained in void.
So out of this void comes everything and you are it.
What else could you be?
If somebody is going to argue that the basic reality is nothingness.
Where does all this come from?
Obviously from nothingness."
 
So I'm back to the velvet underground
Back to the floor that I love
To a room with some lace and paper flowers
Back to the gypsy that I was to the gypsy that I was
 
And even though we know we both fly, we give each other space and not the Evil Eye.--A Tribe Called Quest.

Super old fucking post, but that's why I love A Tribe Called Quest, they always had a positive message!! that's hard to come by these days in hip hop
 
Well, each beautiful thing I come across
Tells me to stop moving and shake this riddle off
Oh well

And there was a time when all I wanted
Was my ice cream colder and a little cream soda
Oh well, oh well

And a wooden box and an alley full of rocks
Was all I had to care about
Oh well, oh well, oh well

Now my mind is filled with rubber tires and forest fires
And whether I'm a liar
And lots of other situations
Where I don't know what to do
At which time God screams to me
There's nothing left for me to tell you
Nothing left for me to tell you
Nothing left
Oh well, oh well, oh well, oh well-

White Stripes..Little Cream Soda


He is my Lord and God
 
another favourite lyrics thread

People say don't rock the boat,
let things go their own way
Ideas that once seem so right,
now have gotten hard to say
I wish I could talk to you,
you could talk to me
'Cause there's very few of us left
my friend
From the days that used to be.

Seem like such a simple thing
to follow one's own dream
But possessions and concession
are not often what they seem
They drag you down
and load you down
in disguise of security.
But we never had
to make those deals
In the days that used to be.

Talk to me, my long lost friend,
tell me how you are
Are you happy with
your circumstance,
are you driving a new car
Does it get you where you wanna go,
with a seven year warranty
Or just another
hundred thousand miles away
From days that used to be.
 
Now I’m not afraid to do the lord's work,
You say vengeance is his, but imma do it first.
I’m gonna handle my business in the name of the law.

Now if he made you cry, oh, I gotta know,
If he’s not ready to die, he best prepare for it.
My judgement’s divine, I tell you who you can call,
You can call.

You better call the police, call the coroner,
Call up your priest, have it for you.
Walk in no peace when I find that fool
Who did that to you, yeah,
Who did that to you, my baby,
Who did that to you,
Gotta find that fool who did that to you.

Now I don’t take pleasure in the man’s pain,
But my wrath will come down like the cold rain.
And there won’t be no shelter, no place you can go.
So put your hands up, time for surrender,
I’m a vigilante, my law’s defender,
You’re a wanted man, here everybody knows.

You better call the police, call the coroner,
Call up your priest, have it for you.
Walk in no peace when I find that fool
Who did that to you, yeah,
Who did that to you, my baby,
Who did that to you,
Gotta find that fool who did that to you.

Now he’ll keep on running, but I’m closing near,
I'll hunt him down until the bitter end,
If you see me coming near then, who you gonna call?

You better call the police, call the coroner,
Call up your priest, have it for you.
Walk in no peace when I find that fool
You better call the doctor, call the lawyer,
I chase ‘em all away to california,
Get my best trying to find that fool
Who did that to you
 
Sia - Elastic Heart

I feel like the film clip makes this song complete

And another one bites the dust
Oh why can I not conquer love?
And I might have thought that we were one
Wanted to fight this war without weapons

And I wanted it, I wanted it bad
But there were so many red flags
Now another one bites the dust
Yeah, let's be clear, I'll trust no one

You did not break me
I'm still fighting for peace

Well, I've got thick skin and an elastic heart,
But your blade - it might be too sharp
I'm like a rubber band until you pull too hard,
Yeah, I may snap and I move fast
But you won't see me fall apart
'Cause I've got an elastic heart

I've got an elastic heart
Yeah, I've got an elastic heart

And I will stay up through the night
And let's be clear, won't close my eyes
And I know that I can survive
I'll walk through fire to save my life

And I want it, I want my life so bad
I'm doing everything I can
Then another one bites the dust
It's hard to lose a chosen one

You did not break me
(You did not break me, no)
I'm still fighting for peace
 
Why do we have to put up with all the crap they give to us
The government control and they dictate
but still the country in a terrible state
They bicker they fight they act like kids
those MPs(politicians) who represent us
There're the voice the voice of the nation
But who wants nuclear contamination
There's no U-turns now davids in
More unemployed as the weeks go by
But that's not so in number 10
There's no turns they're bleeding us dry
They bleed us dry for all we've got
Ask for more but that's not the way it should be
cos this should be a free country
 
I am the key to the lock in your house
That keeps your toys in the basement
And if you get too far inside
You'll only see my reflection
It's always best when the light is off
I am the pick in the ice
Do not cry out or hit the alarm
You know we're friends 'til we die
And either way you turn
I'll be there
Open up your skull
I'll be there
Climbing up the walls
It's always best when the light is off
It's always better on the outside
Fifteen blows to the back of your head
Fifteen blows to your mind
So lock the kids up safe tonight
Shut the eyes in the cupboard
I got the smell of a local man
Who's got the loneliest feeling
That either way he turns
I'll be there
Open up your skull
I'll be there
Climbing up the walls
Climbing up the walls
Climbing up the walls
 
Ozzy Osbourne Mama I'm coming home

Times have changed times are strange here I come but I ain't the same Mama I'm coming home

Times gone by seems to be you could've been a better friend to me mama I'm coming home

Took me in and you drove me out yeah you had me hypnotized lost and found and turned around by the fire in your eyes

You told me lies you made me cry but I can't stand to say goodbye mama I'm coming home I could be right I could be wrong it hurts so bad and it's been so long mama I'm coming home

Selfish love yeah we're both alone the ride before the fall but I'm gonna take this heart of stone I just gotta have it all

I've seen your face a hundred times every day we've been apart and I don't care about the sunshine yeah

Cause mama mama I'm coming home
 
EBAH--Tech N9ne

Evil brain angel heart
Yes I utter much
And I'll never cover up
Why
I'm a klusterfuk
 
I'm the first in the Irish Sea
Another message I can't read

I'm on your side
Nowhere to hide
Trapdoors that open
I spiral down

You're living in a fantasy world
You're living in a fantasy world

I'm lost at sea
Don't bother me
I've lost my way
I've lost my way

You're living in a fantasy world
This beautiful world I'm the first in the Irish Sea
Another message I can't read
 
Savatage-When the Crowds are Gone
I don't know where the years have gone
Memories can only last so long
Like faded photographs, forgotten songs
And the things I never knew
When the skin is thin, the heart shows through
Please believe me what I tell you is true

Where's the light, turn them on again
One more night to believe and then
Another note for my requiem
A memory to carry on
The story's over when the crowds are gone

All my friends have been crucified
They made life a long suicide true
Guess we never figured out the rules
But I'm still alive and my fingers feel
I'm gonna play on till the final reel's through
And read the credits from a different view

Where's the lights, turn them on again
One more night to believe and then
Another note for my requiem
A memory to carry on
The story's over when the crowds are gone

When the crowds are gone
And I'm all alone
Playing a final song
Now that the lights are gone
Turn them on again
One more time for me, my friend
Turn them on again
I never wanted to know
Never wanted to see
I wasted my time till time wasted me
Never wanted to go
Always wanted to stay
Cause the person I am are the parts that I play
So I play and I plan
And hope and I scheme
To the lure of a night
Filled with unfinished dreams
And I'm holding on tight
To a world gone astray

As they charge me for years
I can no longer pay

And the lights
Turn them off my friend
And the ghosts
Well just let them in
Cause in the dark
It's easier to see

Oh whoa-oh

I take as much as I can get
I don't take any regret
I close my eyes to conjure up something
But it's just a faint taste in my mouth

I think I'm coming down
I think I'm coming down

By tomorrow I'll be leaving
By tomorrow I'll be gone
If you want to tell me something
You had better make it strong

'Cause I think I'm coming down
I think I'm coming down
I think I'm coming down
I think I'm coming down

I think I'm coming down
(Here I go)
I think I'm coming down
(Here I go)
I think I'm coming down
(Here I go)
I think I'm coming down
Here I go

There I go

You abuse the ones who love you
You abuse the ones who won't
If you ever had a real heart
I don't think you'd know where to start

'Cause I think I'm coming down
I think I'm coming down
I think I'm coming down
Yeah, I think I'm coming down

Yes, I think I'm coming down
Yes, I think I'm coming down
 
3rd Planet from the Sun -- Modest Mouse

Well, a 3rd had just been made and we were swimming in the water
Didn't know then was it a son was it a daughter
And it occurred to me that the animals are swimming
Around in the water in the oceans in our bodies
And another had been found another ocean on the planet
Given that our blood is just like the Atlantic, and how?

Well the universe is shaped exactly like the earth
If you go straight long enough you'll end up where you were
And the universe is shaped exactly like the earth
If you go straight long enough you'll end up where you were
The universe is shaped exactly like the earth

Never Ending Math Equation - Modest Mouse

I'm the same as I was when I was 6 years old
And, oh my God, I feel so damn old
I don't really feel anything
On a plane, I can see the tiny lights below
And, oh my God, they look so alone
Don't think they really feel anything
Oh my God, I've gotta, gotta, gotta, gotta move on
Where do you move when what you're moving from
Is yourself, is yourself?


[Chorus]
The universe works on a math equation
That never even ever really even ends in the end
Infinity spirals out creation
We're on the tip of its tongue
, and it is saying
"Well, we ain't sure where you stand
You ain't machines and you ain't land
And the plants and the animals, they are linked
And the plants and the animals eat each other"

Well, oh my God and oh my cat
I told my Dad what I need
Well, I know what I have and want
But I don't know what I need
Well, he said, he said, he said, he said
"Where we're going I'm dead"
