Lyrics that appeal to you today v 11.0

Genesis
"Hold on my heart"
Hold on my heart
just hold on to that feeling
we both know we've been here before
we both know what can happen
Hold on my heart
cos I'm looking over your shoulder
ooh please don't rush in this time
don't show her how you feel
Hold on my heart
throw me a lifeline
I'll keep a place for you
somewhere deep inside
So hold on my heart
please tell her to be patient
cos there has never been a time
that I wanted something more
If I can recall this feeling
and I know there's a chance
oh I will be there
yes I will be there
be there for you
whenever you want me to
whenever you call oh I will be there
Yes I will be there
Hold on my heart
don't let her see you crying
no matter where I go
she'll always be with me
So hold on my heart
just hold on to that feeling
we both know we've been here before
we both know what can happen
So hold on my heart...
 
Masters of War
Come you masters of war
You that build all the guns
You that build the death planes
You that build the big bombs
You that hide behind walls
You that hide behind desks
I just want you to know
I can see through your masks
You that never done nothin'
But build to destroy
You play with my world
Like it's your little toy
You put a gun in my hand
And you hide from my eyes
And you turn and run farther
When the fast bullets fly
Like Judas of old
You lie and deceive
A world war can be won
You want me to believe
But I see through your eyes
And I see through your brain
Like I see through the water
That runs down my drain
You fasten the triggers
For the others to fire
Then you set back and watch
When the death count gets higher
You hide in your mansion
As young people's blood
Flows out of their bodies
And is buried in the mud
You've thrown the worst fear
That can ever be hurled
Fear to bring children
Into the world
For threatening my baby
Unborn and unnamed
You ain't worth the blood
That runs in your veins
How much do I know
To talk out of turn
You might say that I'm young
You might say I'm unlearned
But there's one thing I know
Though I'm younger than you
Even Jesus would never
Forgive what you do
Let me ask you one question
Is your money that good
Will it buy you forgiveness
Do you think that it could
I think you will find
When your death takes its toll
All the money you made
Will never buy back your soul
And I hope that you die
And your death'll come soon
I will follow your casket
In the pale afternoon
And I'll watch while you're lowered
Down to your deathbed
And I'll stand o'er your grave
'Til I'm sure that you're dead
-Bob Dylan
 
The Metro - SOAD
I'm alone
Sitting with my broken glass
My four walls
Follow me through my past
I was on a Paris train
I emerged in London rain
And you were waiting there
Swimming through apologies
I remember searching for the perfect words
I was hoping you might change your mind
I remember a soldier sleeping next to me
Riding on The Metro
I was smiling as you took my hand
So removed
We spoke in France
Minutes passed with shallow words
Years have passed and still the hurt
Minutes passed with shallow words
Years have passed and still the hurt
I can see you now
Smiling as I pulled away
Sorry
I remember the letter wrinkled in my hand
"I'll love you always" filled my eyes
I remember a night we walked along the seine
Riding on The Metro
I remember a feeling coming over me
The soldier turned, then looked away
Fuck you for loving me
Riding on The Metro
 
Johnny - SOAD
Hello, my name is Johnny
Well hello my name is Johnny
I would like to explain myself
And I would like to complain in vein
Sweet little boy
JOHNNY!
Sweet Little Boy
JOHNNY!
Let me show you the way to my
Let me show you the way to my
Let me help you explain your mind
When I help you explain your mind
'ello my name is Roger
Well hello my name is roger
I would like to proclaim myself
A god
And likely ordain myself
Sweet little boy
ROGER!
Sweet little boy
ROGER!
Let me show you the way to my
Let me show you the way to my
Let me help you explain your mind
When I help you explain your mind
Let me show you the way to my
Let me show you the way to my
let me help you explain your mind
When I help you explain your mind
Sweet little boy
Johnny
Sweet little boy
Known as roger
Let me show you the way to my
Let me show you the way to my
Let me help you explain your mind
When I help you explain your mind
Let me show you the way to my
Let me show you the way to my
Let me help you explain your mind
When I help you explain your mind
 
Is there anybody here?
Is there anybody here who'd like to change his clothes into a uniform?
Is there anybody who thinks they're only serving in a raging storm?
Is there anybody here with glory in their eyes
Loyal to the end, whose duty is to die?
I want to see him,
I want to wish him luck
I want to shake his hand
I want to call his name
Pin a medal on the man
Is there anybody here who'd like to wrap a flag around an early grave?
Is there anybody who thinks they're standing taller on a battle wave?
Is there anybody here who'd like to do his part?
A soldier to the world, and a hero to his heart?
I want to see him,
I want to wish him luck
I want to shake his hand
I want to call his name
Pin a medal on the man
Is there anybody here proud of the parade?
Who’d like to give a cheer and show that they're not afraid?
I’d like asking him what he's trying to defend
I’d like to ask him what he thinks he's gonna win
Is there anybody here who thinks that following the orders takes away the blame?
Is there anybody here who wouldn't mind a murder by another name?
Whose pride is on the line?
With the honor of the brave and the courage of the blind?
I want to see him,
I want to wish him luck
I want to shake his hand
I want to call his name
Put a medal on the man
A medal on the man…
- Phil Ochs
 
couldn't find a lyrics site so if some are wrong i apploigize :) its hard to hear him sometimes with bootleged songs ....
this place need some Canadian content. Here's a beautiful song.
Open window - craig Cardliff
Tall as a sailor i am feeling,
it makes me so small,
it makes me feel
as though you dont need me at all
well i come by to you
just a collection of expressions,
just an old angery sediment,
wash away, washed away with the tide
i am washed away in your tide
oh and where do you keep your ghosts,
wrapped up in all your dresses,
secret smokey tenses,
that i need
then i need you
 
Two songs by Failure.
HELIOTROPIC
RIGHT NOW WE'RE SICK OF EVERYTHING
TONIGHT WE'LL BIND UP OUR BRAINS AGAIN
WITH EYES PINNED I'LL FLY AROUND ON YOU'RE BED
WE'LL GROW CLOSE WHILE OUR HEARTS DISCONNECT
MORNING IS LIMPING INTO THE ROOM
PLEADING THAT WE BLIND OURSELVES AGAIN
RIP OUT THAT HELIORTOPIC ROSE
BACK OFF PLEASE LET THE LOST GET LOST
I KNOW MY FAITH HAS MEANING
BUT I'VE FORGOTTEN WHY
ITS SO IMPORTANT TO ME
I CAN'T REMEMBER WHY
LIVING A PHANTASM OF THE NERVES
GIRLFRIENDS CHEMICALS IN YOUR HEAD
GOOD DAYS EVENTUALLY OXIDIZE
PUT THEM WITH THOUGHTS THAT ESCAPE YOUR MIND'S EYE
I KNOW MY FAITH HAS MEANING
BUT I'VE FORGOTTEN WHY
ITS SO IMPORTANT TO ME
I CAN'T REMEMBER WHY
SEEMS LIKE I'M FUCKED FOREVER
SEEMS LIKE AT LEAST RIGHT NOW
BUT I FORGOT WHY
I NEED TO FEEL THESE THINGS
DAYLIGHT
I'VE GOT A CATACOMB WITH FUR COVERED STYROFOAM
SO COME OVER NOW AND SLEEP
TIME ISN'T HERE AGAIN WASTED THOUGHTS THAT COULD'VE BEEN
NOW WE CAN DEVISE OUR PLAN
DAYLIGHT
DAYLIGHT
DAYLIGHT WON'T FIND US HERE
I'VE CATACOMB WITH FLAGS THAT FLEW FIFTY YEARS AGO
LET SLEEP OVERCOME YOUR MIND
GOD ISN'T SAFE AGAIN MOLESTS TREES AND CHOPS DOWN MEN
SO WE MUST REVISE OUR PLAN
 
To Wish Impossible Things
Remember how it used to be
When the sun would fill the sky
Remember how we used to feel
Those days would never end
Those days would never end
Remember how it used to be
When the stars would fill the sky
Remember how we used to dream
Those nights would never end
Those nights would never end
It was the sweetness of your skin
It was the hope of all we might have been
That filled me with the hope to wish
Impossible things
To wish impossible things
But now the sun shines cold
And all the sky is grey
The stars are dimmed by clouds and tears
And all I wish
Is gone away
All I wish
Is gone away
All I wish
Is gone away
 
Shipbuilding
Is it worth it
A new winter coat and shoes for the wife
And a bicycle on the boy's birthday
It's just a rumour that was spread around town
By the women and children
Soon we'll be shipbuilding
Well I ask you
The boy said 'DAD THEY'RE GOING TO TAKE ME TO TASK
BUT I'LL BE BACK BY CHRISTMAS'
It's just a rumour that was spread around town
Somebody said that someone got filled in
For saying that people get killed in
The result of this shipbuilding
With all the will in the world
Diving for dear life
When we could be diving for pearls
It's just a rumour that was spread around town
A telegram or a picture postcard
Within weeks they'll be re-opening the shipyards
And notifying the next of kin
Once again
It's all we're skilled in
We will be shipbuilding
WITH ALL THE WILL IN THE WORLD
DIVING FOR DEAR LIFE
WHEN WE COULD BE DIVING FOR PEARLS
- Elvis Costello
 
Is Jesus your pal?
do you call out his name
when your conscience is shivering?
do you need someone too
just like those people who
find peace in someone's promises
you sure don't need my promises
so come and sit on my box
enjoy the view of this water
where my lifeboat is sinking
*by gusgus*
 
ant and gronk: great choices!
Ant, have you heard of the replicants? One half of tool and one half of Failure doing great covers.

Heatmiser (again) - Blue Highway
wide awake at 4 in the morning
killing time on the blue highway
drag in the day like a body
burried the night under where i'd layed
on all the sides, the frost bites, a shadow creeping up on me
oh yeah, it's like the club in my hand
it's my favourite brand
and you've touched everyone
oh yeah, it's like the back of your hand on the tip of my tongue
and it's starting to get fun
kids say i didn't see it coming
busy just plucking your burrs
i take long walks cos they're numbing
only wanna speak in code
on all sides, the frost bites, a shadow creeping up on me
oh yeah it's like the club in my hand
it's your favourite brand
and you've touched everyone
oh yeah it's like the back of your hand on the tip of my tongue
and it's starting to get fun
cut me up like a jigsaw, whole reflection cracked apart
like the lines on my hand or the map of a broken heart
cut me up like a jigsaw, whole reflection cracked apart
like the lines on my hand or the map of a broken heart
oh yeah it's like the club in my hand
it's your favourite brand
and you've touched everyone
oh yeah it's like the back of your hand on the tip of my tongue
and it's starting to get fun
and it's starting to get fun
and it's starting to get fun
and it's starting to get fun
This one's for the can-con that strange was talking about...
The Tragically Hip - Leave
'Do you mean the attack is routine?'
a bird asked of a bird
'In this context, a concave nest,
how do we learn to hurt?'
'do you mean there's no variation?'
watching a dog charge a flock
of birds exploding in congregation
"Why plan when' when we stop?"
'I dunno...but why suppose
it's not the way it should be?
when you can fly above the great waiting list,
as the grow inplies we won't be missed,
we can
leave
we can
leave
we can
leave.
It's a routine flight for this bird tonight
there's more worms than earth
in the afterlife
where the blind feed the blind,
whispering things like;
'On the money' and 'Bullseye'
she picks up the little leaves
where human wrecks are left to seed
left to repaint their deities
and plaster away at their villainies
where there's love
there's hope
'and do you hope those earthbound poets
could learn to sing as good as us?
so we can sit back and enjoy our illusions
and our quietus?'
'Well I don't now...but why suppose it's
not the way it should be?
when you can squawk and wait for word from above
and change yourself into something you love
when you
leave
when you
leave
you leave?

Jewel
"this way"
Love be still
Love be sweet
Don't you dare
Change a thing
I want to photograph you with my mind
To feel how I feel now all the time
Say that you'll stay
Forever this way
Forever and forever
That we'll never have to change
Don't move
Don't breathe
Don't change
Don't leave
And promise me
Say you'll stay
We'll stay
This way
I get afraid
Don't think ahead
Let's just stay
This way in bed
Feels so good inside your arms
Home is everywhere that you are

Say that you'll stay
Forever this way
Forever and forever
That we'll never have to change
Don't move
Don't breathe
Don't change
Don't leave
And promise me
Say you'll stay
We'll stay
This way
Don't move
Don't breathe
Don't change
Don't leave
Promise me
We'll always be
This kind, this sweet
This good to me
Promise me
You'll always be
 
^^^^^
you know Jewel always had good lyrics....
Absence Of Fear
Inside my skin
There is this space...
It twists and turns
It bleeds and aches
Inside my heart
There's an empty room.
It's waiting for lightning;
It's waiting for you
I am wanting, and...
I am needing you
To be here
Inside the absence of fear
Muscles and sinew
Velvet and stone...
This vessel is haunted
It creaks and moans
My bones call to you
In a separate skin.
I make myself translucent
To let you in, boy...
There is the splendor of this
Secret inside of me
And it knows that you're no stranger,
You're my gravity
My hands will adore you
Through all darkness, and they will
Lay you out in moonlight
And vent(?) your name
For I am wanting, and...
I am needing you
To be here...
I need you near...
Inside the absence of fear.
 
Train - Hopeless
I hopelessly, helplessly, wonder why
Everything gotta change around me
I'd tell it to your face
But you lost your face along the way
And I'd say it on the phone
If I thought you were alone
Why do things have to change
But you don't need my pictures on your wall
You say you need no one
And you don't need my secret midnight call
I guess you need no one
Is anybody waiting at home for you
Cause it's time that will tell if it's heaven if it's hell or if it's
Anybody waiting at home for you
Cause it's time that will tell this tale
You're in and out up and down
Wonder if you're lost or found
But I got my hands on you
Are you strong enough to tow the line
Are you gonna make me yours
Or do I make you mine
I'm in and out I'm up and down
Wonder if I'm lost or found
But I need your hands on me now
But you don't need my pictures on your wall
You say you need no one
And you don't need my secret midnight call
I guess you need no one
Is anybody waiting at home for you
Cause it's time that will tell if it's heaven if it's hell or if it's
Anybody waiting at home for you
Cause it's time that will tell this tale
I hopelessly, helplessly, wonder why
Everything gotta change
 
Yes.. i love jewel.. love her!
((hugs Dags))
Jewel
"Break me"
I will meet you in a place
where the light lends itself to soft repose
i will let you undress me
but i warn you, i have thorns like any rose
and you could hurt me with you bare hands
you could hurt me using the sharp end of what you say
But i am lost to you now
There's no amount of reason to save me
So break me
take me
just let me fill you arms again
break me
i'll let you make me
just let me feel your love again
Feels like being underwater
now that i've let go and lost control
water kisses fill my mouth
water fills my soul
So break me
take me
just let me fill you arms again
break me
i'll let you make me
just let me feel your love again
Kiss me once
well, maybe twice
Oh, it never felt so nice
 
Red House Painters :: Summer Dress
summer dress makes you more beautiful than the rest
lovliest girl that i know, and the sweetest
spends her life inside, she thinks she isn't blessed
summer dress separates you from the rest
easiest days of her life have been spent
wonders if she is loved, if she is missed
says a prayer as she's kissed by ocean mist
takes herself to the sand and dreams
says a prayer as she's kissed by ocean mist
takes herself to the sand and dreams
 
"Sweet Surrender" by Sarah McLachlan
it doesn't mean much
it doesn't mean anything at all
the life I've left behind me
is a cold room
I've crossed the last line
from where I can't return
where every step I took in faith
betrayed me
and led me from my home
and sweet
sweet surrender
is all that I have to give
you take me in
no questions asked
you strip away the ugliness
that surrounds me
are you an angel
am I already that gone
I only hope
that I won't disappoint you
when I'm down here
on my knees
and sweet
sweet
sweet surrender
is all that I have to give
sweet
sweet
sweet surrender
is all that I have to give
and I don't understand
by the touch of your hand
I would be the one to fall
I miss the little things
oh I miss everything
it doesn't mean much
it doesn't mean anything at all
the life I left behind me
is a cold room
 
fits SOOOO perfectly into my day. I've wanted to share this with everyone.
Fleetwood Mac
I took my love and I took it down
Climbed a mountain and turned around
And I saw my reflection in the snow-covered hills
'til the landslide brought it down
Oh, mirror in the sky -What is love?
Can the child within my heart rise above?
Can I sail through the changin'...ocean tides
Can I handle the seasons of my life?
I don't know.....I don't know
Well I've been afraid of changin'
because I've built my life around you
But time makes you bolder, even children get older
And I'm getting older too....
So, take my love...take it down
Climb a mountain and turn around
and if you see my reflection in the snow-covered hills...
well the landslide will bring it down
The landslide will bring it down
 
^^^^
Just an awesome song! Thanks for posting it. :)

There is much love in this thread. May i add?
Fall at your feet -Jesse Cook feat. Danny Wild
I'm really close tonight
And I feel like I'm moving inside her
Lying in the dark
I think that I'm beginning to know her
Let it go
I'll be there when you call
Whenever I fall at your feet
And you let your tears rain down on me
Whenever I touch your slow turning pain
You're hiding from me now
There's something in the way that you're talking
The words don't sound right
But I hear them all moving inside you
Go, I'll be waiting when you call
Whenever I fall at your feet
And you let your tears rain down on me
Whenever I touch your slow turning pain
The finger of blame has turned upon itself
And I'm more than willing to offer myself
Do you want my presence or need my help
Who knows where that might lead
I fall at your feet
And you let your tears rain down on me
Whenever I fall
