Lyrics That Appeal To You Today!

Soundgarden - Fell on Black Days

Whatsoever I’ve feared has come to life
Whatsoever I’ve fought off became my life
Just when everyday seemed to greet me with a smile
Sunspots have faded
And now I’m doing time
Cause I fell on black days

Whomsoever I’ve cured I’ve sickened now
Whomsoever I’ve cradled I’ve put you down
I’m a search light soul they say
But I can’t see it in the night
I’m only faking when I get it right
Cause I fell on black days
How would I know
That this could be my fate

So what you wanted to see good has made you blind
And what you wanted to be yours has made it mine
So don’t you lock up something that you wanted to see fly
Hands are for shaking
No, not tying
No, not tying

I sure don’t mind a change
But I fell on black days
How would I know
That this could be my fate
 
The Forest Of October - Opeth

The memories that now rests in this forest
Forever shadowing the sunrise of my heart
Wings leave their nest at my coming
Swaying away unto the cold glowing sky
Dreaming away for a while
My spirit sighs in peace
Gazing unto the stars
Please, take me there

I am so alone, so cold
My heart is to scarred to glow
I wish the sunrise to come
Take my soul (away)
From this cold, lonely shell
I am free

From the eternal sea I rose
Veiled in darkness on either shore
Lost my pride, lost its glow
For me the sun rose no more

The forest of October
Sleeps silent when I depart
The web of time
Hides my last trace

My blaze travel the last universe
Like the sights of magic
Wrapped in aeons
My mind is one with my soul
I fall alone
While leaves fall from the weeping trees
 
spare me the couch - a trunk full of dead bodies

You're old news.
the way you act, the way you flip
your mood swings so briefly and stumble back to consciousness
I can't believe what you said, but I know some day you'll be here in this box that I made for you
it's almost too soon for this feeling of weaker eyes conceating my loathing for you
it's all too close to the truth
sorry I slept through alarm clocks watching me
listened to everything
not exactly what I used to be
empty bottles clouded minds
jars with no lids in sight
it's old news
your personality seems to lack something more then a smile shrugging back at me
how do your shoulders hold that head?
I guess that it must be lighter than air
can you spare please your sympathy?
it's awfully intriguing on how you keep blaming me
pathetically you're all washed out and torn
your name makes me shake
my shirt won't come clean
it's all in the advice that you take
it's all in your head

your name makes me shake.

my shirt wont come clean.
 
Underworld - m.e.

(anatano yume ni watashi wo tamoteru)
Can you hold me in your dreams.
(watashi wo kanjiru koto ga dekiruno
Watashi ga anata wo kanjiru youni)
Can you feel me like I feel you.

Goodbye mother earth.

I don’t want to kill time. I want it to live.
Im not wasting this life. I’m letting it in.

You just rip off the planet and take what you want.
Im coming to get you if you don’t give up.

Beautiful destination. what’s it worth.
Beautiful destination. goodbye mother earth.

I am all that surrounds you.
The earth and the sky.
You. you’re the mouth and the money
Thats bleeding me dry.

Why.
I am not a spirit of the world.
I heal the spirit of the world.
I am not a spirit of the world.
Goodbye mother earth.

(kocchi da)
Its a beautiful destination. for what it’s worth.
A beautiful destination. goodbye mother earth.
 
Sounds like a Soundgarden mood here, this week, for me:

Soundgarden - The Day I Tried to Live

I woke the same as any other day
Except a voice was in my head
It said seize the day, pull the trigger
Drop the blade, and watch the rolling heads

The day I tried to live
I stole a thousand beggar’s change
And gave it to the rich

The day I tried to win
I dangled from the power lines
And let the martyrs stretch
Singing

One more time around might do it
One more time around might make it
One more time around might do it
One more time around
The day I tried to live

Words you say never seem
To live up to the ones inside your head
The lives we make never seem
To ever get us anywhere but dead

The day I tried to live
I wallowed in the blood and mud with
All the other pigs

I woke the same as any other day you know
I should have stayed in bed

The day I tried to win
I wallowed in the blood and mud with
All the other pigs

And I learned that I was a liar
Just like you
 
dido - honestly ok

I just want to feel safe in my own skin,
I just want to be happy again
I just want to feel deep in my own world
But I'm so lonely
I don't even want to be with myself anymore
On a different day,
if I was safe in my own skin,
then I wouldn't feel lost and
so frightened
But this is today and I'm lost in my own skin
And I'm so lonely
I don't even want to be with myself anymore
I just want to feel safe in my own skin,
I just want to be happy again.
 
Hey You - Pink Floyd


Hey you, out there in the cold
Getting lonely, getting old, can you feel me?
Hey you, standing in the aisles
With itchy feet and fading smiles, can you feel me?
Hey you, don't help them to bury the light
Don't give in without a fight.
Hey you, out there on your own
Sitting naked by the phone, would you touch me?
Hey you, with you ear against the wall
Waiting for someone to call out, would you touch me?
Hey you, would you help me to carry the stone?
Open your heart, I'm coming home.

But it was only fantasy.
The wall was too high, as you can see.
No matter how he tried, he could not break free.
And the worms ate into his brain.
Hey you, out there on the road
Always doing what you're told, can you help me?
Hey you, out there beyond the wall,
Breaking bottles in the hall, can you help me?
Hey you, don't tell me there's no hope at all
Together we stand, divided we fall.

Title: Running Out Of Days




There’s too much work and I’m spent
There’s too much pressure and I admit
I got no time to move ahead
Have you heard one thing that I’ve said

And all these little things in life they all create this haze
There’s too many things to get done, and I’m running out of days

And I can’t last here for so long
I feel this current it’s so strong
It gets me further down the line
It gets me closer to the line

And all these little things in life they all create this haze
There’s too many things to get done, and I’m running out of days

All these little things in life they all create this haze
There’s too many things to get done, and I’m running out of days

Will all these little things in life they all create this haze
And now I’m running out of time I can’t see through this haze
My friend tell me why it has to be this way
There’s too many things to get done, and I’m running out of days
 
Too much time spent
thinking of ways to die.
Sticky liquid filters shield our eyes
from the sun
I'll try to be more
open in my hope for our time
Blur the lines dividing what is ours
and what is mine.
Mother Theresa's been working nights
Say no more, I'm on my way
Gandhi's getting fed up,
he's looking for a fight
Say mo more, I'm on my way
And we all go down
And we all go down again
I swore I'd bring you something sort of mine...
Hands above my head, stealing sunlight from the sky
And I lost myself when you went away
Say no more, I'm on my way
Anyway... 'bye and we all go down
And we all go down again
I will pass on things that I've been shown
You'll see too why I feel so alone in this world
I'll try to be more open with my hope for out time
blur the lines dividing what is our
And what is mine
Say no more, I'm on my way to the sky

far-all go down
 
I'm sick of these lyrics.

NERD - Maybe

Love was the egg
See and it was born in a cloud with silver lining
But it broke, I mean it hatched on the ground
So time flew right by me and while I...

I know you thought your life was goin be easy
When you didnt call you found that you where wrong
I know you thought your life was goin be easy
You thought you had it all but you found that you were wrong

See maybe there was something wrong
And you weren't telling me no
See maybe the laugh's on me
And life was telling me a joke

If somethings yours and you let it go
If it comes back to you it was yours all along
When I let you go along with those lies from you
I wonder what else lies in you
Or did the lies just eat at you?

I know you thought your life was goin be easy
When you didnt call you found that you where wrong
I know you thought your life was goin be easy
You thought you had it all but you found that you where wrong

See maybe there was something wrong
And you weren't telling me no
See maybe the laugh's on me
And life was telling me a joke

Hold it now!
Is ya'll there?
How you feel right now?
Yeah me too
Hey yeah!
Hold it now!
Ya'll all right?

See do you remember
what its like to wake up in her love nest
get it love nest and now she's gone
gone gone gone

At which piont you realize
Life is but a joke and the laughs on you
Thats funny right

Babe
 
Something's on my mind
It's been for quite some time
This time i'm on to you
So where's the other face ?
The face i heard before
Your head trip's boring me

Let's nuke the bridge we torched
2,000 times before
This time we'll blast it all to hell
I've had this burning in my guts now
For so long
My belly's aching now to say

Stuck down in a rut of dislogic and smut
A side of you well hid
When it's all said and done
It's real and it's been fun
But was it all real fun

Let's nuke this bridge we torched
2,000 times before
This time we'll blast it all to hell
I've had this burning in my guts now
For so long
My belly's aching now to say

You're just...a fuck.
I can't explain it 'cause i think you suck.
I'm taking pride,
In telling you to fuck off and die.

I've had this burning in my guts now for so long
My belly's aching now to sing
I'm taking pleasure in passing these doubts to you,
So listen up 'cause you might miss...

You're just...a fuck.
I can't explain it 'cause i think you suck.
I'm taking pride,
In telling you to fuck off and die.

Good...night.
 
bruce springsteen - glory days

I had a friend was a big baseball player
Back in high school
He could throw that speedball by you
Make you look like a fool boy
Saw him the other night at this roadside bar
I was walking in, he was walking out
We went back inside sat down had a few drinks
But all he kept talking about was

Glory days well they’ll pass you by
Glory days in the wink of a young girl’s eye
Glory days, glory days

Well there’s a girl that lives up the block
Back in school she could turn all the boy’s heads
Sometimes on a friday I’ll stop by
And have a few drinks after she put her kids to bed
Her and her husband bobby well they split up
I guess it’s two years gone by now
We just sit around talking about the old times,
She says when she feels like crying
She starts laughing thinking about

Glory days well they’ll pass you by
Glory days in the wink of a young girl’s eye
Glory days, glory days

My old man worked 20 years on the line
And they let him go
Now everywhere he goes out looking for work
They just tell him that he’s too old
I was 9 nine years old and he was working at the
Metuchen ford plant assembly line
Now he just sits on a stool down at the legion hall
But I can tell what’s on his mind

Glory days yeah goin back
Glory days aw he ain’t never had
Glory days, glory days

Now I think I’m going down to the well tonight
And I’m going to drink till I get my fill
And I hope when I get old I don’t sit around thinking about it
But I probably will
Yeah, just sitting back trying to recapture
A little of the glory of, well time slips away
And leaves you with nothing mister but
Boring stories of glory days
 
The Weakerthans
Watermark

I count to three and grin.
You smile and let me in.
We sit and watch the wall you painted purple.
Speech will spill on space.
Our little cups of grace.
But pauses rattle on about the way that you cut the snow-fence,
braved the blood,
the metal of those hearts that you always end up pressing your tongue to.
How your body still remembers things you told it to forget.
How those furious affections followed you.
I've got this store-bought way of saying I'm okay,
and you learned how to cry in total silence.
We're talented and bright.
We're lonely and uptight.
We've found some lovely ways to disappoint, but the airport's almost empty this time of the year,
so let's go play on a baggage carousel.
Set our watches forward like we're just arriving here from a past we left in a place we knew too well.
(Hold on to the corners of today,
and we'll fold it up to save until it's needed.
Stand still.
Let me scrub that brackish line that you got when something rose and then receded.
 
11 years, and I'll be gone when they're in town. :/

Urge Overkill - Quality Love

Now I was a long haired boy
always looking for trouble
And I always remember
never having any trouble finding it, no
Now I'm all through my teens
I'm through with their callous scene
but I'm still a long haired gent
and I know I keep searching for
something more than fast action guaranteed
I want quality love now
Quality Love now
I never knew what I wanted
I never knew all I need is
Quality Love, believe it
Quality Love, better keep on dreamin' about it

Get your Quality Love

Quality Love, believe it (yeah)
Quality Love, better keep on dreamin'
Mmmmm
I want Quality Love
Quality Love now (yeah)


I don't know what happened to you
that you keep on fighting and fighting
Try finding some quality love
for the strength in yourself
Somewhere your dream went to hell
I keep on lookin' for the quality love
Quality Love, believe it
Quality Love, keep on dreaming
Quality Love, believe it
Quality Love, believe it
 
christ, i love this song. seems particularly appropriate, also.
these guys have some amazing lyrics.

blue rose - these arms are snakes

If this is an invitation, well then this is my RSVP.
So on your list you can scratch me off.

You aren't the foreground
and I am not the ground that you can just walk on.
I've had enough of the taste of your feet.

I'm not wasting away I'm just trying to get through my days,
you know like one small leap for mankind.
I'd agree that at this point
scortched earth policies may be in my best interest.
My social respect...I am willing to lose.

Come on and drive it in, I've got pills for the pain.
Oh I'm so good at escaping that you'd never known I'd came.
I can wash away shadows and with you I can do just the same.
If you are a god sent then the devil's my dame.

You see it's me and my witchdoctor that need slits for our blades.
A velvet lining around a throat is all the rage.
A job is a job that won't produce this real change.
Let's drive it into a perfect paragraph
so we can form a perfect sentence.
Like "there are motor vehicle things that we can drive across states".

So we can try to figure out how to control our own lives,
these lives that we live for
and how could we forget that we have to die for.

There are too many moons in your eyes
and not enough roses for those eyes.
I drift in and out of concious peaks
which causes a real bad case of sleep.

Your moves just slice through the air that you move through...
let us cut to the chase.
You blue rose.

(As I drift in and out of these uncouncious peaks of memories)
Yes i've played parts in some of the greatest of movies,
I'm the best actor that you could meet.
No no this is it, I am over it, throwing the towel in.
Last rites of the greatest thespian.

You'll see me on the moon and you'll be standing on the ground
like porcelain dolls you'll be speechless.

I'll be drifting in another place not out of space, just another place.
A dream finally realized.

I'll be flying with an angel dropping at it's feet.
Living in a coal mine caressing gods cheek.
I'll be standing on the moon while your standing on the ground
I'll be drifting in and out of conscious states.
 
an ode to bourbon :D

Muse - Sober

Royal Canadian blended
The spicy aroma had mended me
Matured for years and imported
Into my glass you poured it


And you're the only reason
That I remain unfrozen
Suppose it stands to reason
That you would turn on me


You're so solid
You're so solid
It burns inside of me
'Cause you're so solid
It burns inside of me


And Wild Turkey's been chosen
It's caramel nose can smell me
Arbourler/Jameson, I love you
The single malts came burning


And you're the only reason
That I remain unfrozen
Suppose it stands to reason
That you would turn on me


You're so solid
You're so solid
It burns inside of me
'Cause you're so solid
It burns inside of me
 
The Wilderness - Agalloch

It was when I realized
that life has no meaning
no purpose, no quarry
...no answeres...

And all the dreary night
that had befallen across
the land
I slipped into a revery
a web of human hand

You longed to soar up high
to caress the silky winds
to embrace and kiss as lovers
...the ether...

but fate with cursed hand
has struck wretch apon your head
this wretch has been the day
you were born (human)

I live my life alone
and all it's misery
until the day I turn to stone
I shall die alone
among the wilderness

It was when I realized
apon my waking eyes
no nightmare of mankind
can harm me...

I live my life alone
among the wilderness
until the day i turn to stone
Life is but a dream
among the wilderness

...I spread my golden wings
set sail my weightless form
and soar into the cosmos
...Forevermore...
 
Nightwish - She Is My Sin

Take heed, dear heart
Once apart, she can touch nor me nor you
Dressed as one
A wolf will betray a lamb

Lead astray the gazers
The razors on your seducing skin
In the meadow of sinful thoughts
Every flower is a perfect one

To paradise with pleasure haunted, haunted by fear

A sin for him
Desire within
Desire within
A burning veil
For the bride too dear for him
A sin for him
Desire within
Desire within
Fall in love with your deep dark sin

I am the Fallen
You are what my sins enclose
Lust is not as creative
As its discovery

To paradise with pleasure haunted, haunted by fear

A sin for him
Desire within
Desire within
A burning veil
For the bride too dear for him
A sin for him
Desire within
Desire within
Fall in love with your deep dark sin

Bless me, undress me
Pick your prey in a wicked way
God I must confess
I do envy the sinners

A sin for him
Desire within
A burning veil
For the bride too dear for him
A sin for him
Desire within
Desire within
A burning veil
For the bride too dear for him
A sin for him
Desire within
Desire within
Fall in love with your deep dark sin...
 
jane's addiction - jane says

Jane says
I'm done with sergio
He treats me like a ragdoll
She hides
The television
Says 'i don't owe him nothing,
But if he comes back again
Tell him to wait right here for me or,
Try again tomorrow'

'I'm gonna kick tomorrow...'
'I'm gonna kick tomorrow...'

Jane says
'Have you seen my wig around?
I feel naked without it'
She knows
They all want her to go
But that's ok man
She don't like them anyway
Jane says
'I'm going away to spain when i get my money saved
I'm gonna start tomorrow'

'I'm gonna kick tomorrow...'
'I'm gonna kick tomorrow...'

She gets mad
And she starts to cry
Takes a swing but she can't hit!
She don't mean no harm
She just don't know...
What else to do about it

Jane goes
To the store at eight
She walks up on st. andrews
She waits
And gets her dinner there
She pulls her dinner
From her pocket

Jane says
'I've never been in love - no'
She don't know what it is
She only knows if someone wants her

'I only want 'em if they want me,...'
'I only know they want me...'

Jane says...
Jane says...
 
Green day - Uptight

I woke up on the wrong side of the floor
Made, made my way through the front door
Broke my engagement with myself
Perfect picture of bad health, another notch scratched on my belt
The future just ain't what it used to be.

I got a new start on a dead end road
Peaked, peaked out on reaching new lows
Owed, paid off all my debts to myself
Perfect picture of bad health, another notch scratched on my belt
The future's in my living room

Uptight, I'm a nag with a gun
All night, suicide's last call
I've been uptight all night
I'm a son of a gun
Uptight I'm a nag with a gun
