Lyrics That Appeal To You Today!

Katatonia - No Good Can Come Of This


this is no good way out
but it's a challenge or so I see it
death's head upon my wall
afield lies nothing but disorder

no good can come of this
whatsoever I can tell you
no good will ever come of this
the road to happiness I never knew

I read a letter I never sent
and saw me smiling on a picture
this is nothing I remember
whatever made me feel so

there are children
on the freeway
I have my ways
playing with death
 
Shakespears Sister - Stay

If this world is wearing thin
And you're thinking of escape
I'll go anywhere with you
Just wrap me up in chains
But if you try to go alone
Don't think I'll understand

Stay with me
Stay with me

In the silence of your room
In the darkness of your dreams
You must only think of me
There can be no in-between
When your pride is on the floor
I'll make you beg for more

Stay with me
Stay with me

You'd better hope and pray
That you make it safe
Back to your own world
You'd better hope and pray
That you'll wake one day
In your own world

Because when you sleep at night
They don't hear your cries
In your own world
Only time will tell
If you can break the spell
Back in your own world

Stay with me...

10,000 Maniacs - These Are Days

These are
These are days you’ll remember
Never before and never since, I promise
Will the whole world be warm as this
And as you feel it,
You’ll know it’s true
That you – you are blessed and lucky
It’s true – that you
Are touched by something
That will grow and bloom in you

These are days you’ll remember
When May is rushing over you
With desire to be part of the miracles
You see in every hour
You’ll know it’s true
That you are blessed and lucky
It’s true that you are touched
By something that will grow and bloom in you

These are days –
These are the days you might fill
With laughter until you break
These days you might feel
A shaft of light
Make its way across your face
And when you do
You’ll know how it was meant to be
See the signs and know their meaning
You’ll know how it was meant to be
Hear the signs and know they’re speaking
To you, to you
 
oasis - fade away

When I was young
I thought I had my own key
I knew exactly what I wanted to be
Now I'm sure
You've boarded up every door

Lived in a bubble
Days were never ending
Was not concerned
About what life was sending
Fantasy was real
Now I know much
About the way I feel

I'll paint you the picture
'Cause I don't think you live round here no more
I've never even seen
The key to the door
We only get what we will settle for

While we're living
The dreams we have as children
Fade away
While we're living
The dreams we have as children
Fade away
While we're living
The dreams we have as children
Fade away, away, away
They fade away, away, away

Now my life has turned
Another corner
I think it's only best
That I should warn you
Dream it while you can
Maybe someday I'll make you understand

I'll paint you the picture
'Cause I don't think you live round here no more
I've never even seen
The key to the door
We only get what we will settle for

While we're living
The dreams we have as children
Fade away
While we're living
The dreams we have as children
Fade away
While we're living
The dreams we have as children
Fade away
They fade away, away, away
Fade away, away, away
 
I'm just in one of those moods where even if something bad happens its not gonna be able to get me down . . . =D

Modest Mouse - Float On


I backed my car into a cop car the other day
Well he just drove off sometimes life's ok
I ran my mouth off a bit too much oh what can i say
Well you just laughed it off it was all ok

And we'll all float on ok
And we'll all float on ok
And we'll all float on ok
And we'll all float on any way well

Well, a fake Jamaican took every last dime with a scam
It was worth it just to learn from sleight-of-hand
Bad news comes don't you worry even when it lands
Good news will work its way to all them plans
We both got fired on the exactly the same day
Well we'll float on good news is on the way

And we'll all float on ok
And we'll all float on ok
And we'll all float on ok
And we'll all float on alright
Already we'll all float on
Now don't worry we'll all float on
Alright already we'll all float on
Alright don't worry we'll all float on

And we'll all float on alright
Already we'll all float on
Aliright don't worry even if things end up a bit to heavy
we'll all float on alright
Already we'll all float on
Alright already we'll all float on
Ok don't worry we'll all float on
Even if things get heavy we'll all float on
Alright already we'll all float on
Don't you worry we'll all float on
All float on
 
I heard this song on the radio today for the first time... I immediatly recognized the band as Staind and as soon as I got home I looked up the lyrics. This song is so absolutley perfectly fitting to a situation in my life right now that it almost made me cry

Right Here by Staind

"I know I've been mistaken
But just give me a break and see the changes that I've made
I've got some imperfections
But how can you collect them all and throw them in my face

But you always find a way to keep me right here waiting
You always find the words to say to keep me right here waiting
And if you chose to walk away I'd still be right here waiting
Searching for the things to say to keep you right here waiting

I hope you're not intending
To be so condescending it's as much as i can take
and you're so independent
you just refuse to bend so I keep bending till I break

But you always find a way to keep me right here waiting
You always find the words to say to keep me right here waiting
And if you chose to walk away I'd still be right here waiting
Searching for the things to say to keep you right here waiting

I've made a commitment
I'm willing to bleed for you
I needed fulfillment
I found what I need in you

Why can't you just forgive me
I don't want to relive all the mistakes I've made along the way
But I always find a way to keep you right here waiting
I always find the words to say to keep you right here waiting

But you always find a way
To keep me right here waiting
You always find the words to say to keep me right here waiting
And if I chose to walk away would you be right here waiting
Searching for the things to say to keep me right here waiting"
 
Because I have been wasted all day long(and still am):
Mazzy Star - Wasted

After I stuck my
Hands into your ground
And pulled out
Somebody else's son
I felt a little unfortunate
A little mistaken
I felt like I'd been wasted
All day long
All day long
After I bent myself to my knees
And raised my hands up
Right above my head
I felt a little, little
A little bright patch
I felt like I'd been wasted
All day long
All day long
After I took my eyes
From the west
And brought myself back
To my place
I felt a little light for awhile
A little light stone
I felt like I'd been wasted
All day long
All day long
 
*sigh* . . .

Angel--Massive Attack

You are my angel
Come from way above
To bring me love

Her eyes
She's on the dark side
Neutralize
Every man in sight

To love you, love you, love you ...

You are my angel
Come from way above

To love you, love you, love you .
 
A Northern Chorus - Fragile Day

Save your eyes, your're blind
This world's so confined,
by people with rage for life,
They're wasting our time.

For friends we can't grow,
when anger is all that
we show,
machines that will plague
our homes,

They're wasting our time.


So here's what I'll say,
when someone says love
exists today,
I'll cry and believe only pain,
drives our world down in
every way.
And all I see is rain, it's here
again,
I'm sorry
And all I know is fear, it must
be near,
cuz I'm falling.

We've failed a world so fragile
and safe,
today I believe,
nothing can save us you see
.
Let's break out of patterns
that change like the leaves.
Instead just sing out,
expressing all that you feel.
 
Mudvayne - (Per)Version of a Truth

When everything is lost (peel it all away)
Haunting us with questions (asking)
Will we...
Ever find the smile inside (no), is it hidden
Behind the sweating eyes (bleeding)
Dead inside a scream that's pouring from me

I'm planted in this skin, (constricting and pulling me)
This dirty filthy skin(rancid and stinging me)
I burn behind the walls,(that have become my world)
The bearer of a gift, fuck your gift

Truth does not exist,
But the lies do......

They're buried in the skin,

Evolved

Perversion of a truth I'm stuck there,
(Inside of lies buried in me, why)
Alone
Born into a world never asked to be here
(Try to forget truth doesn't exist, truth)
(It doesn't exist, it doesn't exist, truth)
Daath......

Always inside a tragedy (things never seem to go away)
A room that I remember, (portraits I carry)
Try letting go of this space (bad habits can't kick me)
The fool that fell from heaven, heaven...

Perversion of a truth I'm stuck there,
(Inside of lies buried in me, why)
Alone
Born into a world never asked to be here
(Try to forget truth doesn't exist, truth)
(It doesn't exist, it doesn't exist, truth)

Maybe we're all the children of a star,
Misguided in direction, our misdirection
Pardon me while I pray for light

I'm not the only one,
that walks between the rain, there are many.
I'm not the only one,
When everything is lost that doesn't surrender

Perversion of a truth
I'm stuck there (Inside of lies buried in me, why)
Alone
Blind walking through a world
I never asked to be here

Versions of the truth...
I'm not the only one...
Lies!
 
First patient, pull out the skull, remove the cancer
Breakin' his back, chisel necks for the answer
Supersonic bionic robot voodoo power
Equator ex my chance to flex skills on ampex
With power meters and heaters gauge anti-freeze
Octagon oxygen, aluminum intoxicants
More ways to blow blood cells in your face
React with four bombs and six fire missiles
Armed with seven rounds of space doo-doo pistols
You may not believe, livin' on the earth planet
My skin is green and silver, warhead lookin' mean
Astronauts get played, tough like the ukelele
As i move in rockets, overriding, levels
Nothing's aware, same data, same system

Dr. Octagon - Earth People
 
Oh Me by Nirvana

If I had to lose a mile
If I had to touch feelings
I would lose my soul
The way I do
I don't have to think
I only have to do it
The results are always perfect
But that's old news

Would you like to hear my voice?
Sprinkled with emotion
Invented at your birth

I can't see the middle of me
My whole expanse I cannot see
Formulate infinity
Stored deep inside me
 
brandy - have you ever

Have you ever loved somebody so much
It makes you cry
Have you ever needed something so bad
You can't sleep at night
Have you ever tried to find the words
But they don't come out right
Have you ever have you ever

Have you ever been in love
Been in love so bad
You'd do anything to make them understand
Have you ever had someone steal your heart away
You'd give anything up to make them feel the same

Have you ever searched for words to get you in their heart
But you don't know what to say
And you don't know where to start
Have you ever loved somebody so much
It's makes you cry
Have you ever needed something so bad
You can't sleep at night
Have you ever tried to find the words
But they don't come out right
Have you ever, have you ever

Have you ever found the one
You've dreamed of all your life
You'd do just about anything to look into their eyes
Have you finally found the one you've given your heart to
Only to find that one won't give their heart to you
Have you ever closed your eyes and
Dreamed that they were there
And all you can do is wait for that day when they will care

Have you ever loved somebody so much
It's makes you cry
Have you ever needed something so bad
You can't sleep at night
Have you ever tried to find the words
But they don't come out right

Have you ever, have you ever

What do I gotta do to get you in my arms baby
What do I gotta say to get to your heart
To make you understand how I need you next to me
Gotta get you in my world
'Cuz baby I can't sleep
Have you ever loved somebody so much
It's makes you cry
Have you ever needed something so bad
You can't sleep at night
Have you ever tried to find the words
But they don't come out right

Have you ever, have you ever
 

everytime i see you ~ fra lippo lippi

Life it seems, slips away
Just like any dream
All I want is all i need
Still I ask for more

Say. say why is it so
Wait, wait dont let me know

Everytime I see you
My life turns upside down
Everytime I see... you I know

Love it seems, slips away
Just like any dream
I failed to see this memory
means so much to me

Say, say why is it so
Wait, wait don't let me know

Everytime I see you
My life turns upside down..
Tried so hard to find out
How to make you come back
But even if I told you
I can't hold you again
Everytime I see you I know....

Everytime I see you
My life turns upside down
Everytime I see you I know...

 
In light of recent events... :\

Breakup Song

Maybe I'm off, yeah, I'm strangely askew
Maybe I ran away just when you started to get a good view
Maybe I turned out to be, nothing like the me you made me out to be
and so another one's gone, yeah, another love lost
and I'm bitter and rusted and I want off with my heart
convinced I'm over, I'm convinced I'm through
I'm certain of one thing is that I'll never love anyone again
not the way that I loved you

yeah cause I'm blank, I'm still, but I'm numb from the pain
and I'm fine with the weather and with us being not together
and I'm tired of faking cause I've been faking it for years
and I'm sick of writing this song about how love always disappears
I know, know you tried, I know, It's just gonna take me sometime
yeah for me to stop hearing my voice telling you good bye.

Cause I was taught that love grows
So why does it always seem to just fade on me
It's hard to admit that I was wrong
I was wrong to lead you on that way
Yeah I told you that pain is temporary
and I made you believe that our love exists
Do you wanna know what the saddest part of all of this is
the saddest part is that right now, I don't even give a shit

cause I'm blank, I'm still, but I'm numb from the pain
and I'm fine with the weather and with us being not together
and I'm tired of faking cause I've been faking it for years
and I'm sick of writing this song about how love always disappears
I know you tried, I know it's just gonna take some time
yeah I know, I know you tried
I know its just gonna take some time
yeah for me to stop hearing my voice telling you good-bye
good-bye
good-bye

So I dropped you at the curb
leaned over and gave me a 'so long'
And I pull out and turn the radio on
I took a long deep drag ... to our break up song.
 
"Sun Green" - Neil Young

Sun green started makin' waves
On the day her grandpa died
Speakin' out against anything
Unjust or packed with lies

She chained herself to a statue of an eagle
In the lobby of powerco
And started yellin' through a megaphone
"there's corruption on the highest floor"

Suits poured out of elevators "they're all dirty"
Phoneheads began to speak "you can't trust anybody"
But security couldn't get her down
She was welded to the eagle's beak

Sun green leaned into that megaphone
And said, "truth is all i seek"
Security brought in some blowtorches
News cameras recorded the speech

"when the city is plunged into darkness
By an unpredicted rolling blackout
The white house always blames the governor,
Sayin', 'the solution is to vote him out'"

On top of that great bronze eagle
Sun's voice was loud and clear
She said, "powerco is workin' with the white house
To paralyze our state with fear"

It was a golden moment golden moment
In the history of tv news
No one could explain it
It just got great reviews

"hey mr. clean, you're dirty now too
Hey mr. clean, you're dirty now too
Hey mr. clean, you're dirty now too
Hey mr. clean, you're dirty now too"

The imitators were playin'
Down at john lee's bar
When sun went down to see 'em
Someone followed her in a car

So now when she goes dancin'
She has to watch her back
The FBI just trashed her room
One of them kicked her cat

The damn thing scratched his leg
And he had to shoot it dead
And leave it lyin' in a puddle of blood
At the foot of sun green's bed

"hey mr. clean, you're dirty now too
Hey mr. clean, you're dirty now too
Hey mr. clean, you're dirty now too
Hey mr. clean, you're dirty now too"

John lee's was rockin'
The imitators drove it home
Sun was dancin' up a heatwave
For a while she was all alone...

When up walked a tall stranger
He shadowed her move to move
In perfect unison
A supernatural groove

He took her by the hand
And the room began to spin
He said, "i'm earth... earth brown
You know the shape i'm in

I'm leavin' tonight for alaska
And i want you to come in the spring
And be a goddess in the planet wars
Tryin' to save the livin' things"

"i'm ready to go right now,"
Sun green told earth brown
"let's go back to my place,
Pick up my cat and leave this town behind"

Hey mr. clean, you're dirty now too
Hey mr. clean, you're dirty now too
Hey mr. clean, you're dirty now too
Hey mr. clean, you're dirty now too

Next day sun green got busted for pot
And it made the headline news
But then the charges all got dropped
And the story got confused

She'd still like to meet julia butterfly
And see what remedy brings
And be a goddess in the planet wars
Tryin' to save the livin' things

But that might not be easy
Livin' on the run
Mother earth has many enemies
There's much work to be done

"hey mr. clean, you're dirty now too
Hey mr. clean, you're dirty now too
Hey mr. clean, you're dirty now too
Hey mr. clean, you're dirty now too"

Sometimes it's hard to stop
When your heart is set on Top of the Pops

When your heart is set on Top of the Pops

Saved up a lot of money to spend
But all I could afford was a bad weekend
Can't stand pop music nowadays
It's not loud enough
Everybody can sing

Popular culture no longer applies to me

Title: Maybe I'm Amazed - Jem


Maybe I'm amazed at the way you love me all the time
Maybe I'm afraid of the way I love you
Maybe I'm amazed at the the way you pulled me out of time
And hung me on a line
Maybe I'm amazed at the way I really need you

Maybe I'm a girl
And maybe I'm a lonely girl
Who's in the middle of something
That she doesn't really understand

Maybe I'm a girl
And maybe you're the only man
Who could ever help me
Baby won't you help me understand

Maybe I'm a girl
And maybe I'm a lonely girl
Who's in the middle of something
That she doesn't really understand

Maybe I'm a girl
And maybe you're the only man
Who could ever help me
Baby won't you help me understand

(Oooh...)

Maybe I'm amazed at the way you're with me all the time
Maybe I'm afraid of the way I leave you
Maybe I'm amazed at the way you help me sing my song
Right me when I'm wrong
Maybe I'm amazed at the way I really need you
 
Even though I've not experienced this per se, the whole song just makes me think about H.E.R. . . .

Renee--Lost Boyz

Verse one:

Here’s a tune about this honey named renee
That I met one day
On my way back from john jay
I’m peepin’ shorty as she’s walking to the train
I tap her on her shoulders
Excuse me miss, but can I get your name
She said my name is renee
I said I got a whole lot to say
So may I walk you to your subway
She said if you want
So yo, we started talking
I brought two franks and two drinks
And we began walking
I had to see where that head was at
Because the gear was mad phat
So we must chat about this and that
She told me what she was in school for
She wants to be a lawyer
In other words shorty studies law
I’m telling shorty I’m a writer
And as she’s looking for the token
She drops a package of the ez rider
Covers her mouth with her name ring
I said, yo don’t sweat the technique shorty rocks
I do the same thing
But yet I use philly blunts
She said I never dealt with philly blunts
Because I heard that’s for silly stunts
I said, nah they burn slower
Right now I really don’t know ya
But maybe later on I can get to show ya

Chorus:

A ghetto love is the law that we live by
Day by day I wonder why my shorty had to die
I reminice over my ghetto princess everyday
Give it up for my shorty, shorty(x2)

Verse two:

So now we sittin’ on the train
Besides the fingernails
Now shorty got the hairdo of pain
Now I understand she got flava
A tough leather jacket,with some jeans and a chain that her moms gave her
Got off the train about 6:34
She wasn’t sure she had grub for the dog so we hit the store
Went to the crib
And turned the lights on
A mad magazine stand
From essence to right on
A leather couch
Stero system with crazy cd’s
Understand cause she got cheese
She said cheeks do what you want
She said I’m gonna feed the dog
I said alright well I’m gonna roll this blunt
She came back with stretch pants and a ponytail, a t-shirt
A yo, fam I got a tender-roni girl
We’re sitting on the couch chattin
We’re smoking blunts off the balcony
We’re stearing at manhattan now
She started feeling on my chest
I started feeling on the breasts
And there’s no need for me to stress the rest
A yo, I got myself a winner
We sparked a blunt before we ate
And a blunt after we ate dinner
She had a tattoo she only wanted bo to see
But first dim the lights and turn up the jodeci
I’m like whatever shorty rock
We can swing it like that
Cause on the real this is where it’s at.

Chorus (2x)

Verse three:

I woke up the next day on the waterbed
A letter’s on the pillow eh
And this what the letter said
It said cheeks, I’ll be home around two
You was deep in your sleep
So I didn’t want to bother you
I left my number for shorty to call me later
Got dressed
Smoked a blunt
And then I bounced towards the elevator
I got a beep around three
I’m asking shorty what’s up with you
She’s asking what’s up with me
And now we been together for weeks
Candlelight dinner with my shorty
Crack a 40 with my naughty freaks
Hey man, I never been in love
But everytime I’m burstin’ in and outta state
It’s shorty that I’m thinking of
I’m hanging out with my crew
I get a beep from renee
Because renee uses code too
But yet I’m chattin’ with her mom dukes
She said renee has been shot
So cheeks, meet me up at st. lukes
I jumps on the van wyck
I gotta make it there quick
A yo , this shit is gettin’ mad thick
Not even thinking about the po nine
I’m doing a buck, who gives a fuck
I’m smokin’ boom and the whole nine
I gotta see what’s going on
But by the time I reach the hospital
They tell me mr. cheeks
Renee is gone
I’m pouring beer out for my shorty who ain’t here
I’m from the ghetto
So listen
This is how I shed my tears

Chorus (2x)
 
Sweetbox - Read My Mind

In your eyes, you look so weary
Fighting light, with dark and dreary
Even though you can't always hear me
I'll still sing

Could go to church and pray on sunday
Could think life's sins are cleared up that way
Don't know forgiveness just begins with me.

If you could read my mind
Read my mind
Then you could see what's behind my eyes
If you could read my mind
Your hands are untied
'cause the battlefield is tired.

I get a little bit stupid sometimes
I get a little bit jealous sometimes
Sometimes I'll be unfair but that's just me

I know that I'm not hiding
And I won't let chains bind me
Because perfections not the point of this

If you could read my mind
Just read my mind
Then you could see what's behind my eyes
If you could read my mind
Your hands are untied
'cause the battlefield is tired

If ever love made sense
Then I think there'd be a book
To tell us who is really right and wrong
But I don't want somethin' simple
I don't want to sing a normal song

(Just close your eyes and let it be cause the battlefield is tired)

Never let it fade

Just close our eyes and let it be cause the battlefield is tired.
