Lyrics That Appeal To You Today!

Orgy - Revival

So what's with your kind
You scavenge to find what makes you
Supreme in design
Accuse you 'cause they had the fun
So differently divine
When my mind goes override
It's so typical to capture anonymity
I choose the crowd to divide

And so you see I try I cannot ever displace
You see I'm jaded at times from nowhere leaving this place
So you see me die right in front of your face
You see I'm jaded at times nowhere leaving this place

They made us with a tool
Then they taught us how to live
We met the candyman
He filled us with his contraband
Then they scared us all away
While you're visiting your bubble of reality
Salivating at the sound of bells
I'll be seducing you through your confession
They've been the ones you've known forever
Someone's been lied to with all the rage
Caught us dismal at times we've known forever

And so you see I try I cannot ever displace
You see I'm jaded at times from nowhere leaving this place
So you see me die right in front of your face
You see I'm jaded at times nowhere leaving this place

You've been denied of supervision
Just a test tube life away
How could you make believe that we've grown through circumcision
When it's right here next to me
Friendships change to time
They'd never let us leave
You took your time so too late
Missing what you've never had
I'll be the only one that knows just how we've been abused

And so you see I try I cannot ever displace
You see I'm jaded at times from nowhere leaving this place
So you see me die right in front of your face
You see I'm jaded at times nowhere leaving this place

edit: oopsie, I posted the wrong songs' lyrics mistakenly, but looking back, I see these are much more fitting anyway

It's a maudlin day, god damn it

Seasick, Yet Still Docked - Morrissey

I am a poor freezingly cold soul
So far from where
I intended to go
Scavenging through life's very constant lulls
So far from where I'm determined to go

Wish I knew the way to reach the one I love
There is no way ...
Wish I had the charm to attract the one I love
But you see, I've got no charm
Mmm...

Tonight I've consumed much more than I can hold
Oh, this is very clear to you
And you can tell I have never really loved
You can tell, by the way, I sleep all day

And all of my life no-one gave me anything
No-one has ever given me anything
My love is as sharp as a needle in your eye
You must be such a fool
To pass me by
 
Moe you actually POSTED A SONG I LIKE!!!!! =D wonders will never cease ;) hehehe j/k

Horse Pills - The Dandy Warhols

So your ex got a mansion where you kick it on the hill.
Your boy comes to see you, he's your Hollywood thrill.
He's a Spanish fly, that bucks like a stallion.
In the suits that you got him, he looks more Italian.
You worry bout your tan when the weather's gettin' clammy.
Summer in the city and winters in Miami.
You get so high on the high life pills.
Cruisin' and boozin' and rockin' on the horse size pills.
You could even take more thrills -
You could even take more spills.
Pills, thrills, chills and ills man, kills.
And rockin' on the horse size...
Butt's gettin' bigger, do you think he'll notice - maybe?
That's ok, don't worry bout it baby!
Cause everybody knows he pumps you for your money.
That's alright, don't worry bout it honey!
In your itsy bitsy teenie weenie riding up your butt bikini.
Keepin' on the heels cause you're saggin' just a teenie bit...
More than the girls he pretends he doesn't thrill.
Rubbin' on the lotion, and rockin' on the horse size pills.
You could even take more thrills -
You could even take more spills
Pills, thrills, chills, and ills man, kills.
And rockin' on the horse size.
Sometimes you feel like Moses, that's when you're toasted.
Yeah, kick it.
Yo bitch.
That's right, yeah.
Rockin' on the horse size...
 
No Doubt~Dont Speak!

"Don't Speak"

You and me
We used to be together
Everyday together always
I really feel
That I'm losing my best friend
I can't believe
This could be the end
It looks as though you're letting go
And if it's real
Well I don't want to know

Don't speak
I know just what you're saying
So please stop explaining
Don't tell me cause it hurts
Don't speak
I know what you're thinking
I don't need your reasons
Don't tell me cause it hurts

Our memories
Well, they can be inviting
But some are altogether
Mighty frightening
As we die, both you and I
With my head in my hands
I sit and cry

Don't speak
I know just what you're saying
So please stop explaining
Don't tell me cause it hurts (no, no, no)
Don't speak
I know what you're thinking
I don't need your reasons
Don't tell me cause it hurts

It's all ending
I gotta stop pretending who we are...
You and me I can see us dying...are we?

Don't speak
I know just what you're saying
So please stop explaining
Don't tell me cause it hurts (no, no, no)
Don't speak
I know what you're thinking
I don't need your reasons
Don't tell me cause it hurts
Don't tell me cause it hurts!
I know what you're saying
So please stop explaining

Don't speak,
don't speak,
don't speak,
oh I know what you're thinking
And I don't need your reasons
I know you're good,
I know you're good,
I know you're real good
Oh, la la la la la la La la la la la la
Don't, Don't, uh-huh Hush, hush darlin'
Hush, hush darlin' Hush, hush
don't tell me tell me cause it hurts
Hush, hush darlin' Hush, hush darlin'
Hush, hush don't tell me tell me cause it hurts
 
A Perfect Circle...13th Step.

I didn't want to know
I just didn't want to know
Best to keep things in the shallow end
Cause I never quite learned how to swim

I just didn't want to know
Didn't want, didn't want,
Didn't want, didn't want

Close my eyes just to look at you
Taken by the seamless vision
I close my eyes,
Ignore the smoke,
Ignore the smoke

Call it aftermath, she's turning blue
Such a lovely color for you
Call it aftermath, she's turning blue
While I just sit and stare at you

Because I don't want to know
I didn't want to know
I just didn't want to know
I just didn't want

Mistook their nods for an approval
Just ignore the smoke and smile

Call it aftermath, she's turning blue
Such a lovely color for you
Call it aftermath, she's turning blue
Such a perfect color for your eyes
Call it aftermath, she's turning blue
Such a lovely color for you
Call it aftermath, she's turning blue
While I just sit and stare at you

I don't want to know
 
The Minute of Decay - Marilyn Manson

there's not much left to love
too tired today to hate
I feel the empty
I feel the minute of decay

I'm on my way down now I'd like to take you with me
I'm on my way down
I'm on my way down now I'd like to take you with me
I'm on my way down

the minute that it's born
it begins to die
I'd love to just give in
I'd love to live this lie

I've been to black and back
I've whited out my name
a lack of pain, a lack of hope,
a lack of anything to say

there is no cure for what is killing me
I'm on my way down

I've looked ahead and everything was dead
I guess that I am too

the minute that it's born
it begins to die
I'd love to just give in
I'd love to live this lie

I'm on my way down now, I'd like to take you with me...
 
Lazy Days
by Leona Naess


Why can't you be with me
Watching American TV
We'll order in chinese
And ask the world to stay away, please

These hotels groe so stale
Telling the same ass-tale
By the time I get to you
I'll be too tired to...

Soak up some lazy days
No one can rain on our parade
Standing here beneath the shade
Of our love

Let's slide down the avenue
Like good New Yorkers do
Maybe then I'll believe
When you give, man, you recieve

Wide-eyed and stupid
I'm waiting for the arrows of cupid
Wide-eyed and stupid
I'm waiting for the arrows of cupid
Wide-eyed and stupid
I'm waiting for the arrows
of your love

;)
 
At The Drive In: Hourglass ( posted this before i think but i like this band ;) )

Sucks me in, taking a ride
And i'm wishing for the satellite
Grabbing vein pulling down on the radio
Laughing at the face that's bending down

I'm all alone so far up here
And my oxygen's all gone

Bend the metal
My glory box has failed
We're rocking in our reclining chairs
Drive away that car

That brought us all this harm
Those are the pieces of my story line

I'm all alone so far up here
And my oxygen's all gone

Truly stressing realization
I wish i was an astronaut
Eight hour bitterness all for whose sake
Stain glass sunday school charades
 
Alkaline Trio

Alkaline Trio- Crawl

Waking up Zeroed in on medicine
Am I waking up at all today?
Seeing lights, feeling pain
There's my cure on ice
I can walk but I will crawl there
I will crawl there
Sitting straight, feeling faint
An exhausted smile screens my words
But I will hear them
Here's a phrase that we all know
But I can't make sense
I don't know words but I will hear them
I still hear them
Never ran away for the sake of scars
Tried not to move but she was armed
And shots were fired
Now a hole in the head of this wounded liar
Never had a drink that I didn't like
Got a taste of you, threw up all night
I got more sick
With every sour second rate kiss
Everything I never would miss again
 
One of those songs when remembering to breathe, doesn't quite make all worries go away, but soothes you somehow.


Telepopmusik ~ Breathe

I brought you something close to me,
Left for something you see though you're here.
You haunt my dreams
There’s nothing to do but believe,
Just Believe.
Just Breathe.

Another day, just believe,
Another day, just breathe
Another day, just believe,
Another day. Just breathe.

I’m used to it by now.
Another day, just believe.
Just breathe. Just believe.
Just breathe.
Lying in my bed,
Another day, staring at the ceiling.

Just breathe. Another day.
Another day, just believe.
Another day.
I’m used to it by now.
I’m used to it by now.
Just breathe. Just believe.
Just breathe. Just believe.
Just believe. Just breathe.
Just believe.
Another day, just believe.
Another day.
Another day, just believe,
Another day, just breathe,
Another day (I do believe).
Another day (so hard to breathe)
Another day (not so hard to believe)
Another day. Another day.
 
Audioslave - Like A Stone

On a cobweb afternoon
In a room full of emptiness
By a freeway I confess
I was lost in the pages
Of a book full of death
Reading how we'll die alone
And if we're good we'll lay to rest
Anywhere we want to go

(chorus)
In your house I long to be
Room by room patiently
I'll wait for you there
Like a stone I'll wait for you there
Alone

On my deathbed I will pray
To the gods and the angels
Like a pagan to anyone
Who will take me to heaven
To a place I recall
I was there so long ago
The sky was bruised
The wine was bled
And there you led me on

(chorus)
In your house I long to be
Room by room patiently
I'll wait for you there
Like a stone I'll wait for you there
Alone

And on I read
Until the day was done
And I sat in regret
Of all the things I've done
For all that I've blessed
And all that I've wronged
In dreams until my death
I will wander on
 
lisa loeb - stay

this doesn't have any particular relevance to me at the moment, but i just love how it's written...such a beautiful song that i think nearly everyone can identify with. poetry at its best.

lisa loeb - stay
You say, I only hear what I want to
You say, I talk so all the time...so

And I thought what I felt was simple
And I thought that I don't belong
And now that I am leaving
Now I know that I did something wrong 'cause I missed you
Yeah yeah, I missed you

An' you say, I only hear what I want to
I don't listen hard, don't pay attention to the distance that you're running
To anyone, anywhere
I don't understand if you really care, I'm only hearing negative; no, no, no, noooo

So I, turned the radio on, I turned the radio up
And this woman was singing my song:
Lover's in love and the other's run away
Lover is crying 'cause the other won't stay
Some of us hover when we weep for the other who was
Dying since the day they were born
Well, well, this is not that
I think that I'm throwing, but I'm thrown

And I thought I'd live forever, but now I'm not so sure
You try to tell me that I'm clever
But that won't take me anyhow, or anywhere with you

You said that I was naive and I thought that I was strong
I thought, "hey, I can leave, I can leave"
Oh, but now I know that I was wrong, 'cause I missed you
Yeah, I missed you

You said, "You caught me 'cause you want me and one day you'll let me go"
You try to give away a keeper, or keep me
'Cause you know you're just so scared to lose
And you say, "Stay."

And you say I only hear what I want to...
 
Not as haunting as some singers, but her voice did the job on this song.

Andain ~ Beautiful Things


Got up early, found something's missing
my only name.
No one else sees but I got stuck,
and soon forever came.
Stopped pushing on for just a second, then nothing's changed.
Who am I this time, where's my name?
I guess it crept away.

No one's calling for me at the door.
And unpredictable won't bother anymore.
And silently gets harder to ignore.
Look straight ahead, there's nothing left to see.
What's done is done, this life has got it's hold on me.
Just let it go, what now can never be.

I forgot that I might see,
So many beautful things.
I forgot that I might need,
to find out what life could bring.

Take this happy ending away, it's all the same.
God won't waste this simplicity on possibility.
Get me up, wake me up, dreams are filling
this trace of blame.
Frozen still I thought I could stop,
now who's gonna wait.

No one's calling for me at the door.
and unpredictable won't bother anymore.
and silently gets harder to ignore.
look straight ahead, there's nothing left to see.
what's done is done, this life has got it's hold on me.
just let it go, what now can never be.

Now what do I do?
can I change my mind?
did I think things through?

It was once my life - it was my life at one time.
 
Artist: Bic Runga Lyrics
Song: Sway Lyrics

Don't stray, don't ever go away
I should be much too smart for this
You know it gets the better of me
Sometimes, when you and I collide
I fall into an ocean of you, pull me out in time
Don't let me drown, let me down
I say it's all because of you
And here I go, losing my control
I'm practicing your name so I can say it to your face
It doesn't seem right, to look you in the eye
Let all the things you mean to me
Come tumbling out my mouth
Indeed it's time to tell you why
I say it's infinitely true

[CHORUS:]
Say you'll stay, don't come and go
Like you do
Sway my way, yeah I need to know
All about you

And there's no cure, and no way to be sure
Why everything's turned inside out
Instilling so much doubt
It makes me so tired - I feel so uninspired
My head is battling with my heart
My logic has been torn apart
And now it all turns sour
Come sweeten every afternoon

[CHORUS TWICE]

It's all because of you
It's all because of you

Now it all turns sour, come sweeten every afternoon
It's time to tell you why, I say it's infinitely true

[CHORUS TWICE]

It's all because of you
It's all because of you
It's all because of you
 
Airport Song :: Guster

Glad you made it
Welcome to the farm
Who’s your daddy?
I’m your daddy now
I’m here seeking only what i need
In your mind is where I'll plant my seed
It’s for sure
Let me keep you in this place
You’ll be better off this way
I will keep you warm and safe
You’ll be better off this way
You learn to love the price you pay
Trust me dear you’re better off this way
Put to bed the son and sister moon
I'll be hiding in your dirty room
I'll go there seeking only what I need
La ti da we’ll stay there till we bleed
It’s for sure
Let me keep you in this place
You’ll be better off this way
I will keep you warm and safe
You’ll be better off this way
I will not wake you from your sleep
Leave you wandering counting sheep
No more sad and sunshine days
Trust me dear you’re better off this way
You’ll be selling books at the airport
 
All By Myself. Celine Dion.

When I was young
I never needed anyone
And making love was just for fun
Those days are gone
Livin' alone
I think of all the friends I've known
When I dial the telephone
Nobody's home


All by myself
Don't wanna be
All by myself
Anymore


Hard to be sure
Sometimes I feel so insecure
And loves so distant and obscure
Remains the cure


All by myself
Don't wanna be
All by myself
Anymore
All by myself
Don't wanna live
All by myself
Anymore


When I was young
I never needed anyone
Making love was just for fun
Those days are gone


All by myself
Don't wanna be
All by myself
Anymore
All by myself
Don't wanna live
Oh
Don't wanna live
By myself, by myself
Anymore
By myself
Anymore
Oh
All by myself
Don't wanna live
I never, never, never
Needed anyone
 
"Enemy"
Days of the New

Listen down you little man
I'm not the one who's trying to change you
And if you come to understand it will be okay
You need to change it now
I'm not the one who's trying to be your enemy
There's something you need to change

I went in killing the sun
I once one

[B]The Streets: The Weak Become Heros [/B]

(I'm not usually into this type of music, but I just love the lyrics.....They are so honest and pretty much sum up my life in the past 2 or 3 years, and paint a picture of my generation I suppose....Mostly about the 'ecstasy culture'/'chemical generation' in this country..)

The Streets: The Weak Become Heros

Turn left up the street, nothing but grey concrete and deadbeats. Grab something to eat, Macky D's or KFC, only one choice in the city. Done voicing my pity, now lets get to the nitty-gritty.

'tune reminds me of my first e, like unique still sixteen and feeling horny point to the sky and feel free, a sea of people all equal. Smiles infront and behind me.

Swim in the deep blue sea, cornfields sway lazily, all smiles, all easy. Where you from, what's you on and what's your story?

mesmerising tones, rising pianos, this is my zone so stop cloning. pick paper, scissors or stone.

'cause me and you are the same, known you all my life, don't know your name.

The name's European Bob. Sorted! anyway, have to dance now, see ya later, Please to meet ya.

Likewise, a pleasure.

[chorus]

We were just there, minding our own we went on and on (we all smile, we all sing)

weak become heros and the stars align, (we all sing, we all sing... sing)

We were just there, minding our own we went on and on (we all smile, we all sing)

weak become heros and the stars align, (we all sing, we all sing... sing)

[end chorus]

The night slowly fades and goes slow-motion. All the commotion becomes floating emotions. Same piano loops over.

Arms wave, eyes roll back and jaws fall open. See in soft focus...

Chatting to this bloke in the toilets. Dizzy new hights, blinded by the lights. These people are for life, it's all back to his place at the end of the night.

Yo, they could settle wars with this, if only they will. Imagine the worlds leaders on pills. Then imagine the morning after... wars causing disaster. Don't talk to me, I don't know ya. But this ain't tomorrow, for now I still love ya... hours fly over.

sail 'round, diamonds and pearls, never seen so many fit girls. discover new worlds. Look at my watch, can't focus, last two hours are lost. Every move fills me with lust, all life's problems I just shake off.

Yo, mad little events happen, things map out and a few blue madams who light the toilets. Big beefy bouncers out to reveal us, geezers on E's and first timers, kids on whizz darlin's on charlie, all come together for this party.

All races, many faces from places you never heard of. where you from, what's your name, what you on? Sing to the words, flex to the phat one's, the tribal drums. The sun's rising, we all smile... we all sing.

[chorus]

Then the girl in the cafe taps me on the shoulder, I realise five years went by and I'm older. memories smoulder, winters colder. But that same piano loops over and over and over. The road shines and the rain washes away. Same chinese takeaway selling shit in a tray. It's dark alround, I walk down... same sites, same sounds. new beats though.

Solid concrete under my feet, no surprises no treats. the world stands still as my mind sloshes around, the washing-up bowl in my crown. My lifes been up-and-down since I walked from that crowd.

[chorus]

Out of respect for Johnny Walker, Paul Oakenfold, Nicky Holloway, Danny Rampling and all the people who gave us these times. And to the government, I stick my middle finger up with regards to the criminal justice bill.

[chorus]

For all the hero's I met along the way...

[chorus]
 
Bette Midler did a cover of this in the movie "For The Boys"

The Beatles - "In My Life"


There are places I'll remember
All my life, though some have changed
Some forever, not for better
Some have gone and some remain
All this places have their moments
With lovers and friends I still can recall
Some are dead and some are living
In my life, I've loved them all

But of all these friends and lovers
There is no one compares with you
And these memories lose their meaning
When I think of love as something new
Though I know I'll never lose affection
For people and things that went before
I know I'll often stop and think about them
In my life, I love you more

Though I know I'll never lose affection
For people and things that went before
I know I'll often stop and think about them
In my life, I love you more
In my life-- I love you more
