:: Ayumi Hamasaki ~ A Song For XX (Ferry Corsten remix), translated into English
Why am I crying?
Why am I lost?
Why did I stop?
Please tell me
When will I grow up?
How long can I stay a child?
Where have I come running from?
Where am I running to?
I had no place to live. I couldn't find one.
I don't know if I could have any hope for the future.
They always said I was a strong child.
They praised me, saying "you must be strong to not cry."
I didn't want those words at all.
So I pretended not to understand.
Why are you laughing?
Why are you by my side?
Why are you leaving me?
Please tell me.
When did you become strong?
Since when have you felt weakness?
How long must you wait
for the day you understand to come?
The sun is rising. I must go soon.
I can't stay in the same place forever.
You will someday be betrayed by your trust in people.
I thought it was the same as being rejected.
At the time I didn't have that kind of strength.
I definitely knew too much.
They always said I was a strong child.
They praised me, saying "you must be strong not to cry."
The more people said things like that,
the more even laughing became agony.
I was born alone. I'll go on living alone.
I thought that surely that kind of life is appropriate.

frou frou - let go
drink up, baby down
mmm, are you in or are you out
leave your things behind
'cause it's all going off without you
excuse me, too busy you?re writing your tragedy
these mishaps
you bubble wrap
when you've no idea what you're like
so let go, jump in
oh well, whatcha waiting for
it's alright
'cause there's beauty in the breakdown
so let go, just get in
oh, it's so amazing here
it's alright
'cause there's beauty in the breakdown
it gains the more it gives
and then it rises with the fall
so hand me that remote
can't you see that all that stuff's a sideshow
such boundless pleasure
we've no time for later now
you can't await your own arrival
you've 20 seconds to comply
so let go, jump in
oh well, whatcha waiting for
it's alright
'cause there's beauty in the breakdown
so let go, just get in
oh, it's so amazing here
it's alright
'cause there's beauty in the breakdown
 
Pink Floyd - Wish You Were Here
So, so you think you can tell
Heaven from Hell,
Blue skies 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 heroes 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.

Together on the sand,
we walked hand in hand
On the beachfront, she smiled at me
As she tightly held my hand
I had my finger up her...
Country music played on the radio
So I turned it off and we walked down
To the water, as she grabbed on to my honker
A wave swept us away
Whoa-oh-oh
 
Modest Mouse - Perfect Disguise
Well you've got the perfect disguise and you're looking OK
From the bottom of the best to the worst well what can I say
Cos you cocked your head to shoot me down
And I don't give a damn about you or this town no more
No, but I know the score
Need me to fall down so you can climb up
Some fool-ass ladder. Well, good luck.
I hope, hope there's something better up there
Cos you cocked your head to shoot me down
And I don't give a damn about you or this town no more
No, cos I know the score
Broke my back
 
JURASSIC 5 "Thin Line"
[Chali 2na]
Yo, this is a lesson in friendship
The depths of a kinship
What women and men begin with, and then slip
My pen drips
As I scribble my thoughts on thin strips
Of emotion
A fraction, seduction, attraction
Eruption of passion
Corrupts if a lasted friendship's involved
But love to cross the line
But that's why we built these walls
[Hook: Nelly Furtado]
We been friends for a long time, a very close friend of mine
Love you like you was mine, but respect a thin line
I love you like you was mine, think about you all the time
Very close friend of mine, but respect a thin line
[Akil]
Opposites attract
When the female and male come in contact
Sticky situation in fact
Tryin not to let the feelings catch
But there's a thin line between both of y'all
So you respect that
And entertain the idea, but get brought back
To reality, and could you really live with that?
Decision, based on intuition
You love and keep your distance
Hug and kiss in friendship
[Marc 7]
An ongoing kinship, we was people to begin with
Disrespect was not intended
but your feelings sparked the sentence
Sometimes you're too intense in your quest to invent
The perfect man, please understand, my rhyme is your repent
[(Hook) - repeat 2X]
[Soup]
Man, too bad that we became friends first
I'm not on expert on how relationships should work
But, (echos) from the minute it as known
It changed the whole tone on how we spoke on the phone
Yo, it was cool but I felt it wasn't enough
And I was stuck when your moms would pick it up
Over you, all my buddies would swoon
But I felt we were in tune, you let me up in your room. (Damn)
But to me girl, you're still off limits
No matter all the times that I hit it. (Yo, whatchu doin after this?)
Infatuation was authentic, but yo I just pretended
So I wouldn't lose the friendship
Maybe, I should spill all my guts
Or write a letter, then tear it up
Or do a song, just to say what's up
I want ... just ... a touch
[(Hook) - repeat 2X]
[Nelly Furtado]
I can't do this anymore
See my heart just spills out when you walk in the door
Friendship turns into lust and this only tip
That I can't comprehend even if I knew it
Can't do justice to these things that I'm feeling
You got someone else, don't wanna be caught stealing
Hell if she knew she would never leave us alone
in the roo-ooo-ooom
[Chali 2na]
This was a lesson in friendship
I stress in this sentence
Should women and men be friends first?
And then slip?
My pen drips as I scribble my thoughts on thin strips
of devotion
[Akil]
Opposites attract
And best friends make a perfect match
If you only knew that
Once you cross, ain't no turning back
The minute you let him in it and he hit that
That's that
[Marc 7]
We was people to begin with, but you was too relentless
Jeporidizing kinship, respect is intended
Resolve is my intent
While we got it in
I'm tryin to salvage a friendship
 
Say hello to the angels - Interpol
Watch silent parts
the parts that burn is love
I know there’s such a place
I had my back turned,
you didn’t realize I’m lonely
You laugh to things to which I relate
But I see no harm.
Come ‘way, come ‘way, come ‘way
It’s over.
And 1, 2, 3
When I’m feeling lazy, you've followed me because
I’m saving all my energy to pick up when you
Move into my airspace
Move into my airspace
Something’s coming over me
I see you in the doorway
I cannot control the part of me that swells up when you
Move into my airspace
Move into my airspace
But each night,
I bury my love around you
Oh each night,
I bury my love around you
You're linked to my inner sense/innocence
This is a concept
This is a bracelet
This isn’t no intervention
This is a concept
This is a bracelet
This isn’t no intervention
This is a new year
What you thought was such a conquest
Your hair is so pretty in red
Baby, baby, you're really the best
Can I get to this way, I think so
Can I get to this way, I think so
Can I get to this way? Can I get to this way?
Can I get to this way? Can I get to this way?
We should take a trip now to see new places
I'm sick of this town and I've seen my faces change
We should take a trip to see new places
I'm sick of this town, I've seen my faces change
(each night I bury my love around you)
Say hello, say hello to the angels
Say hello, say hello to the angels
 
I Miss You-Incubus
To see you when I wake up, is a gift I didn't think could be real
To know that you feel the same, as I do, is a Three-fold utopian dream
You do something to me
That I can't explain
So would I be out of line,
If I said I miss you.
I see your picture, I smell your skin on, the empty pillow next to mine
You have only been gone ten days, but already I am wasting away
I know I'll see you again
Whether far or soon
But I need you to know, that I care
And I miss you
(cheesy i know, but oh so true.)
 
weird couple of days...Woke up to my brother asking me if I was dating anyone, and it made me sad when I told him, "No."
...lots of isolationism while being surrounded by friends...
Apple wrote this about her parents...
Fiona Apple - Never is a promise
You'll never see-
the courage i know
its colors' richness
won't appear within your view
i'll never glow,
the way that you glow
Your presence dominates the judgements made on you
But as the scenery grows,
I see in different lights
the shades and shadows
undulate in my perception
my feelings swell and stretch
i see from greater heights
i understand what I am still to proud to mention
-to you
You'll say you understand
but you don't understand
you'll say you'd never give up
seeing eye to eye
but never is a promise
and you can't afford to lie
you'll never touch
these things that i hold
the skin of my emotions
lies beneath my own
you'll never feel
the heat of this soul
my fever burns me deeper than i've ever shown
-to you
you'll say don't fear your dreams
it's easier than it seems
you'll say you'd never let me fall
from hopes so high
but never is a promise
and you can't afford to lie
you'll never live the life that i live
i'll never live the life
that wakes me in the night
you'll never hear the message i give
you'll say it looks as though i might
give up this fight
but as the scenary grows,
isee in different lights
the shades and shadows
undulate in my perception
my feelings swell and stretch
i see from greater heights
i realize what i am now too smart to mention
-to you
you'll say you understand,
you'll never understand
i'll say i'll never wake up
knowing how or why
i don't know what to believe in
you don't know who i am
you'll say i need appeasing
when i start to cry
but never is a promise
and i'll never need a lie
 
i can't get over this song, it means alot to me at the moment, i am very dillusional, (bin stuck inside all weekend lol).

Who would have known
That a boy like him
Would have entered me lightly
Restoring my blisses
Who would have known
That a boy like him
After sharing my core
Would stay going nowhere
Who would have known
A beauty this immense
Who would have known
A saintly trance
Who would have known
Miraculous breath
To inhale a beard
Loaded with courage
Who would have known
That a boy like him
Possessed of magical
Sensitivity
Who would approach a girl like me
Who caresses cradles his head
In her bosom
He slides inside
Half awake, half asleep
We faint back
Into sleephood
When I wake up
The second time
In his arms
Gorgeousness
He's still inside me
Who would have known
Who ahhh
Who would have known
A train of pearls
Cabin by cabin
Is shot precisely
Across an ocean
From a mouth
From a
From the mouth
Of a girl like me
To a boy
To a boy
To a boy

Then you probably live life
Compared to a cat

bank roll and a wife.

"If the sun
fell from the sky
I don't mind
If the mountains
feel in the sea

got my own world
to live through
and a
and I aint gonna acompany you
Whit collar conservative flashing down the street,
waving hiss plastic finger at me
ohhh but soon my kind will drop and die
but i'm gonna wave my freak flag high...
I got my own life to live
I'm the one whose got to die when its time for me to die...
so let me live my life the way I want to...
 
watching terrible tv
it kills all thought
getting spacier than
an astronaut
making out with people
i hardly know or like
i can’t believe what i do
late at night
i wanna know what it’s like
on the inside of love
i’m standing at the gates
i see the beauty above
only when we get to see
the aerial view
will the patterns show
we’ll know what to do
i know the last page so well
i can’t see the first
so i just don’t start
it’s getting worse
(chorus)
i can’t find my way in
i try again and again
i’m on the outside of love
always under or above
must be a different view
to be a me with a you
of course i’ll be alright
i just had a bad night
Nada Surf "Inside of Love"
 
The Cure
"It's Not You"
You wear your smile
Like it was going out of fashion
Dress to inflame
But douse any ideas of passion
You carry your love in a trinket
Hanging round your throat
Always inviting
Always exciting
But I must not take off my coat
Well I'm tired of hanging around
I want somebody new
I'm not sure who I've got in mind
But I know
That it's not you
That it's not you
You ask me questions
That I never wanted to hear
I am the only one
Just until you finish this year
I would murder you
If I had the alibi
Here in my hand
And you just laugh
'cause you don't understand
That I'm tired of hanging around
I want somebody new
I'm not sure
Who I've got in mind
But I know that it's not you
It's not you
It's not you
It's not you
It's not you
It's not you
No it's not you
That it's not you
It's not you
It's not you

"Unknown Road"
"...two roads diverged in a wood, and i - i took the one less traveled by, and
that has made all the difference." r. frost
So you're currently content with your surroundings
You possess a vague sense of accomplishment
Did you give all you had to give or did you
give conservative
Do you think that all the years that passed you
by we're all well spent
Pictures of everyday life spark memories
And certain things pull triggers in your mind
What would be different now if you were
there than here.
What passages, what fantasies lie just
beyond the unknown road
Do you know, the miracles that could
be found they're waiting down the
unknown road, so it goes
A few more cornerstones that could be yours
Ever get the thought you were mistaken?
Ever think about the stones you've left
un-turned? More chances slip away with
every passing day, suffering with cold
You're so afraid you might get burned.
And wondering can take it's toll yeah
And wondering you can rack your skull
And wondering can send your
imagination up a tree
Wondering what fantasies lie just
beyond the unknown road
Time is right now of the essence
Time is right to learn your lessons
Time is all that you have left
things you've contemplated
the unknown road is one
 
I was hearing this song in my head and playing it over and over for almost a week, until the day last weekend when it finally made sense in my life. Ever recognize you're living the moment that the song represents for you, while it's happening? Freaky. :)
Tori Amos - A Sorta Fairytale
On my way up north
up on the ventura
I pulled back the hood
and I was talking to you
And I knew then it would be
a life long thing
but I didn't know that we
We could break a silver lining
And I'm so sad
Like a good book
I can't put this day back
a sorta fairytale with you
a sorta fairytale with you
Things you said that day
up on the 101
The girl had come undone
I tried to downplay it
with a bet about us
You said that -
You'd take it
as long as I could
I could not erase it
And I'm so sad
like a good book
I can't put this day back
a sorta fairytale with you
a sorta fairytale with you
And I ride along side
And I rode along side
you then
And I rode along side
till you lost me there
in the open road
And I rode along side
till the honey spread
itself so thin
For me to break your bread
For me to take your word
I had to steal it
And I'm so sad
like a good book
I can't put this day back
a sorta fairytale with you
a sorta fairytale with you
I could pick back up
whenever I feel
Down New Mexico way
something about
the open road
I knew that he was
looking for some indian blood and
Find a little in you find a little
in me we may be
On this road but
we're just
imposters
in this country you know
So we go along and we said
we'd fake it
Feel better with
Oliver Stone
till I
almost smacked him -
seemed right that night and
I don't know what
takes hold
Out there in the
desert cold
These guys think they must
try and just get over on us
And I'm so sad
like a good book
i can't put this day back
a sorta fairytale with you
a sorta fairytale with you
And I was ridin' by
ridin' along side
for a while till you lost me
And I was ridin' by
ridin' along till you lost me
Till you lost
me in
the rear
view
You lost me
I said
Way up north I took my day
all in all was a pretty nice
day and I put the hood
Right back where
you could taste heaven
perfectly
Feel out the summer breeze
Didn't know when we'd be back
and I, I don't
didn't think
we'd end up like
like this
 
if i could put the lyrics of every song ive ever heard by these guys here i would...
GRAVITY RIDES EVERYTHING - MODEST MOUSE
Oh gotta see, gotta know right now
What's that riding on your everything?
It isn't anything at all
Oh gotta see, gotta know right now
What's that writing on your shelf
In the bathrooms and the bad motels?
No one really cared for it at all
Not the gravity plan
Early, early in the morning
It pulls all on down my sore feet
I wanna go back to sleep
In the motions and the things that you say
It all will fall, fall right into place
As fruit drops, flesh it sags
Everything will fall right into place
When we die, some sink and some lay
But at least I don't see you float away
And all the spilt milk, sex and weight
It all will fall, fall right into place
I CAME AS A RAT - MODEST MOUSE
Well I ain't sure, but I been told
He's baking cakes inside our souls
Stayed awake, took a nap
Got myself my bottles back
I'm breakin’ them out on the street
Walkin’ around in my bare feet
I do not need you to tell me that I am not a cat
I caught a ride, we caught some air
He's never gonna cut his hair
It takes more time to make a fake
We night swam down in the lake
Washed the dirt off our intentions
Prattle on ‘bout bad inventions
I came as ice, I came as a whore
I came as advice that came too short
I came as gold, I came as crap
I came clean and I came as a Rat
It takes a long time, but God dies too
But not before he'll stick it to you
Well I don't know, but I been told
You never die and you never grow old
Uh oh!
I came as a call, I came as flat
I came too soon so I came back
I came as flowers, I came as nice
I came as dirt and I came as its price
It takes a long time, but God dies too
But not before he'll stick it to you
I don't know, but I been told
You never die and you never grow old
Uh Oh!

and one more because this song has been in and out of my head, along with a certain mood, for over a week now...
Suck - NIN
there is no god up in the sky tonight
no sign of heaven anywhere in sight
all that was true is left behind
once i could see now i am blind
don't want your dreams you try to sell
this disease i give to myself
how does it feel?
how does it feel?
she makes it sweeter than the sun
i get too tight i come undone
i bow my head to confess
the temple walls are made of flesh
runs up my arms 'till i'm on track
itches my skin right off my back
i'll heal your wounds
i'll set you free
i'm jesus christ on ecstacy
how does it feel?
how does it feel?
i am so dirty on
on the inside
i am so dirty on
on the inside
i am so dirty on
on the inside
i am so dirty on
on the inside
no
how does it feel?
how does it feel?
suck (suck)
suck (suck)
suck (suck)
suck (suck)
a thousand lips a thousand tongues
a thousand throats a thousand lungs
a thousand ways to make it true
i want to do terrible things to you
 
Dosed - Red Hot Chili Peppers
I got dosed by you and
Closer than most to you and
What am I supposed to do
Take it away I never had it anyway
Take it away and everything will be okay
In you a star is born and
You cut a perfect form and
Someone forever warm
Lay on, lay on, lay on, lay on
Lay on, lay on, lay on, lay on
[Chorus]
Way upon the mountain where she died
All I ever wanted was your life
Deep inside the canyon I can't hide
All I ever wanted was your life
[/Chorus]
Show love with no remorse and
Climb on to your seahorse and
This ride is right on course
This is the way I wanted it to be with you
This is the way that I knew that it would be with you
Lay on, lay on, lay on, lay on
Lay on, lay on, lay on, lay on
[Chorus]
I got dosed by you and
Closer than most to you and
What am I supposed to do
Take it away I never had it anyway
Take it away and everything will be okay
[Chorus]
[End]
...I still miss you Chris...

one more from modest mouse, id bold the relevant parts, but i didnt see the point of bolding the entire song, this is for a person who i doubt reads this anymore...
Alone Down There - Modest Mouse
How do, How do you do?
My name is you
Flies, they all gather round me and you too
You can't see anything well
You ask me what size it is, not what I sell
(Ha ha ha)
The flies, they all gather around me and you too
Well I don't want you to be alone down there, to be alone down there, to be alone.
I don't want you to be alone down there, to be alone down there, to be alone
But the devil's apprentice, he gave me some credit
He fed me a line, and I'll probably regret it
I don't want you to be alone down there, to be alone own there, to be alone.
Aaahhh...
I don't want you to be alone down there, to be alone down there, to be alone.
Yeah, I don't want you to be alone down there, to be alone down there, to be alone.
-----
but maybe its time....
