Lyrics That Appeal To You Today!

Ben Harper - Amen Omen

What started as a whisper,
Slowly turned in to a scream
Searching for an answer
Where the question is unseen.
I don't know where you came from
And I dont know where you've gone
Old friends become old strangers
Between darkness and the door

Amen omen, will I see your face again?
Amen omen, can I find the place within
To live my life without you?

I still hear you saying
"All of life is chance,
And is sweetest, is sweetest when at a glance"
But I live,
I live a hundred lifetimes in a day.
But I die a little
In every breath I take.

Amen omen, will I see your face again?
Amen omen, can I find the place within
To live my life without you?

I listen to a whisper,
Slowly drift away
Silence is a loudest,
Parting word you never say
I put I put your world
Into my reins
Now a voiceless sympathy
Is all that remains

Amen omen, will I see your face again?
Amen omen, can I find the place within
To live my life without you?

Amen omen, can i find the strength within?
 
Thoughts on some of the other songs posted on this page...

sparkle_jez, I really liked those lyrics...thanks for posting :D

cherub, I say that song is one of the top 5 horniest songs I've ever heard. It's got all the right bits; sleazy, dirty and funky. That Prince guy knows his stuff... ;)

I was gonna post Tyrell Corporation's 'Going Home' but couldn't find lyrics anywhere...grrr....let's try some Concrete Blonde instead.

Concrete Blonde
I Don't Need A Hero
You always said I was a liar
But we burn like a house on fire...
No matter what, you know that to be true.
And everything you gave to me
Changed everything I used to be
Much more than anyone I ever knew

And I don't need a hero
I don't need a soldier
I did when I was younger -
But now that I am older
I don't need a father,
I don't wanna be your mother
It's just that anyone of us is half
Without another one is you

The colors of that piece of time
Are still so fresh inside my mind
And it makes the movie
Of my life seem pale -
And all the games I have to play
I got to give a lot of me away
But the part with us
Will never be for sale

The words of love have been confused
The ways of love have been abused -
Is this a lottery you win or lose?
I don't know -
It's an endless circle over time
The place inside where I hold and find
Your sweet and happy music in my soul

It's positive for me tonight. :)
 
Conflicted feelings about love an life, but that's what it's all about, right?

Modest Mouse - Edit the Sad Parts

Sometimes all I really want to feel is love
Sometimes I'm angry that I feel so angry
Sometimes my feelings get in the way
Of what I really feel I needed to say
If you stand in a circle
Then you'll all have a back to bite

Back logged voices on the 7 wonders
We're all so funny but he's lost his joke now
A communication from the one lined joke

A stand up comic and a rock musician
Making so much noise you don't know when to listen
Why are you judging people so damn hard
You're taking your point of views a bit too far
I made my shoes shine with my coal
But my polish didn't shine the hole
If you stand in a circle
Then you'll all have a back to bite
Back logged books on the 7 wonders
We're all so funny but he's lost his joke now
Our communications come from one lined joke
From stand up comics and a rock musicians
Making so much noise you don't know when to listen

Think it over
There's the air of the height of the highrollers
Think it over
You aint got nothing till ya know her

The Beatles - When I'm Sixty-Four

When I get older losing my hair,
Many years from now.
Will you still be sending me a valentine
Birthday greetings bottle of wine.
If I'd been out till quarter to three
Would you lock the door,
Will you still need me, will you still feed me,
When I'm sixty-four.
You'll be older too,
And if you say the word,
I could stay with you.
I could be handy, mending a fuse
When your lights have gone.
You can knit a sweater by the fireside
Sunday mornings go for a ride,
Doing the garden, digging the weeds,
Who could ask for more.
Will you still need me, will you still feed me,
When I'm sixty-four.
Every summer we can rent a cottage,
In the Isle of Wight, if it's not too dear
We shall scrimp and save
Grandchildren on your knee
Vera Chuck & Dave
Send me a postcard, drop me a line,
Stating point of view
Indicate precisely what you mean to say
Yours sincerely, wasting away
Give me your answer, fill in a form
Mine for evermore
Will you still need me, will you still feed me,
When I'm sixty-four.

Dead Kennedys - Soup Is Good Food

I was laid off my job about 2 weeks ago... This is still how I feel.


Dead Kennedys - Soup Is Good Food

We're sorry
But you're no longer needed
Or wanted
Or even cared about here
Machines can do a better job than you
This is what you get for asking questions

The unions agree
'Sacrifices must be made'
Computers never go on strike
To save the working man you've got to put him out to pasture

Looks like we'll have to let you go
Doesn't it feel fulfilling to know
That you-the human being-are now obsolete
And there's nothing in hell we'll let you do about it

[Chorus]
Soup is good food-(We don't need you any more)
You made a good meal-(We don't need you any more)
Now how do you feel-(We don't need you any more)
To be shit out our ass
And thrown in the cold like a piece of trash
We're sorry
You'll just have to leave
Unemployment runs out after just six weeks
How does it feel to be a budget cut?
You're snipped
You no longer exist

Your number's been purged from our central computer
So we can rig the facts
And sweep you under the rug
See our chart? Unemployment's going down
If that ruins your life that's your problem

Soup is Good Food, Etc.
We're sorry
We hate to interrupt
But it's against the law to jump off this bridge
You'll just have to kill yourself somewhere else
A tourist might see you
And we wouldn't want that

I'm just doing my job, you know
So say uncle
And we'll take you to the mental health zoo
Force feed you mind-melting chemicals
Til even the outside world looks great

In hi-tech science research labs
It costs too much to bury all the dead
The mutilated disease-injected
Surplus rats who can't be used anymore

So they're dumped (with no minister present)
In a spiraling corkscrew dispose-all unit
Ground into sludge and flushed away
Aw geez:.

Soup is good food
You made a good meal, etc:.
We know how much you'd like to die
We joke about it on our coffee breaks
But we're paid to force you to have a nice day
In the wonderful world we made just for you
"Poor Rats", we human rodents chuckle
At least we get a dignified cremation
At yet
At 6:00 tomorrow morning
It's time to get up and go to work
 
The Smashing Pumpkins - The End is the Beginning is the End

The sewers belch me up
The heavens spit me out
From ethers tragic I am born again
And now I'm with you now
Inside your world of wow
To move in desires made of deadly pretends
Till the end times begin

Is it bright where you are
Have the people changed
Does it make you happy you're so strange
And in your darkest hour, I hold secrets flame
You can watch the world devoured in it's pain
Strange

Climb my ribcage to
The replays run for you
Unhook my lights to peek behind the flash
For I am crystal chrome
I am shatter dome
I am kremlin king of angels avenged
To destroy the end

Is it bright where you are
Have the people changed
Does it make you happy you're so strange
And in your darkest hour, I hold secrets flame
You can watch the world devoured in it's pain

The zeppelins rain upon us
The guns of love disastrous
A shadow lies amongst you
To defy the future cast

Is it bright where you are
Have the people changed
Does it make you happy you're so strange
And in your darkest hour, I hold secrets flame
You can watch the world devoured in it's pain
Strange
Strange

Soundgarden - Black Hole Sun

In my eyes, indisposed
In disguise as no one knows
Hides the face, lies the snake
The sun in my disgrace
Boiling heat, summer stench
'Neath the black the sky looks dead
Call my name through the cream
And I'll hear you scream again

Black hole sun
Won't you come
And wash away the rain
Black hole sun
Won't you come
Won't you come

Stuttering, cold and damp
Steal the warm wind tired friend
Times are gone for honest men
And sometimes far too long for snakes
In my shoes, a walking sleep
And my youth I pray to keep
Heaven send Hell away
No one sings like you anymore

Hang my head, drown my fear
Till you all just disappear
 
The Noose - A Perfect Circle

So glad to see you well
Overcome and completely silent now
With heaven's help
You cast your demons out
And not to pull your halo down
Around your neck and tug you off your cloud
But I'm more than just a little curious
How you're planning to go about
Making your amends to the dead
To the dead

Recall the deeds as if
They're all someone else's
Atrocious stories
Now you stand reborn before us all
So glad to see you well

And not to pull your halo down
Around your neck and tug you to the ground
But I'm more than just a little curious
How you're planning to go about
Making your amends to the dead
To the dead

With your halo slipping down
Your halo slipping
Your halo slipping down
Your halo slipping down
Your halo slipping down [repeated]

Your halo slipping down to choke you now
 
for someone i love, who ive been thinking of a lot lately. and for me. consider the whole song bolded.

O SONG - AUGIE MARCH

You don't keep me company,
You all turn out wrong,
If you are my daughters, if you are my sons,
I can only hold you inside for so long,
O song, did I lead you on?

If you are my love, well love what's wrong?
You don't keep me company for near enough long,
I can't feel or touch you, or hold you for long,
O song, are you leading me on?

Friends come in time, and then they are gone,
I know what it's like to be floating along
Without a warm body to heap your cares on,
O on and into the night.

For I have been bad now for twenty years long,
For centuries you have been pure and strong,
If you thought me a good place to stay you were wrong,
O song, did I lead you on?
 
For Kymbo

Things of stone And Wood- The Yearning

The stars will dwarf me,
And the winds will scatter me,
And the earth shall have me at last.
I weep upon my own grave,
I cry from grief,
I will cry from love,
And i will cry from guilt.
So i must ask the un-answerable....why.
So i must ask the un-answerable.


It's in the hand that heals,
It's in the hand that blesses,
It's in the hand that kills,
It's in the hand that seeks redemption by gently stroking the bruises of its furious crimes.

This is the search for a god,
This is the horror of mortality.
This is the shadow of death tormenting me,
This is the yearning for more,
The yearning for more than this.

The Postal Service - Sleeping In Ima daysleeper, so these lyrics obviously appeal to me. (Oh yeah, and conspiracy theories are always a plus!)


last week I had the strangest dream where
everything was exactly how it seemed
where there was never any mystery of who shot John F. Kennedy
it was just a man with something to prove
slightly bored and severly confused
he steadied his rifle with his target in the center
and became famous on that day in november

don't wake me I plan on sleeping in

again last night I had that strange dream
where everything was exactly how it seemed
no concerns about the world getting warmer
people thought that they were just being rewarded
for treating others as they'd like to be treated
for obeying stop signs and curing diseases
for mailing letters with the address of the sender
now we can swim any day in november

don't wake me I plan on sleeping in

Basement Jaxx - Plug It In (I just really really like to turn this song up in my little car while I drive, and the lyrics make it a tad above your usual car-commercial psuedohouse music.)

Look in the mirror time to face up
Ever tried to live without the photographs and money
Don't have to live behind the make-up
Cos all I want is what's itching inside of you

Cos I saw you sitting in the rain with the tears running down, running down your face
It makes me shiver when I see you like this
But just open your eyes and watch it fade away
Cos I saw you sitting in the rain with the tears running down, running down your face
Can't you see it's a masquerade so get yourself together

Plug it in plug it in baby
Where you been, where you been baby
Plug it in plug it in baby
Where you been, where you been baby

I wouldn't say that its so serious
I know you think you're in a tragic condition
You know that I'm a little bit more than curious
When all I want is what's kicking inside of you

Cos I saw you sitting in the rain with the tears running down, running down your face
It makes me shiver when I see you like this
But just open your eyes and watch it fade away
Cos I saw you sitting in the rain with the tears running down, running down your face
Can't you see it's a masquerade so get yourself together

Plug it In plug it in baby
Where you been, where you been baby
Plug it in plug it in baby
Where you been, where you been baby

Ever tried to live without the makeup

Plug it in, plug it in baby...
 
modest mouse - the view - good news for people who love bad news

Your gun went off.
Well you shot off your mouth and look where it got you.
My mouth runs on too.

Shouts from both sides,
"Well we've got the land but they've got the view!"
Well now here's the clue.

Life it rents us.
And yeah I hope it put plenty on you.
Well I hope mine did too.

As life gets longer, awful feels softer.
Well it feels pretty soft to me.
And if it takes shit to make bliss,
then I feel pretty blissfully.

Your gun went off.
Well you shot off your mouth and look where it got you.
My mouth runs on too.

Shouts from both sides,
"Well we've got the land but they've got the view!"
Well now here's the clue.

We are fixed right where we stand.

Life it rents us.
And yeah I hope it put plenty on you.
Well I hope mine did too.

We are fixed right where we are.

As life gets longer, awful feels softer.
Well if feels pretty soft to me.
And if it takes shit to make bliss,
well I feel pretty blissfully.

For every invention made how much time did we save?
We're not much farther than we were in the cave.

As life gets longer, awful feels softer,
and it feels pretty soft to me.
And if it takes shit to make bliss,
well I feel pretty blissfully.

If life's not beautiful without the pain,
well I'd just rather never ever even see beauty again.
Well as life gets longer, awful feels softer.
And it feels pretty soft to me.

For every good deed done there is a crime committed.
We are fixed.
For every step ahead we could have just been seated.
We are fixed.

As life gets longer, awful feels softer.
Well it feels pretty soft to me.
And if it takes shit to make bliss,
well I feel pretty blissfully.

We are fixed.
We are fixed.
We are fixed right where we stand.
 
Alice In Chains -- Down In A Hole


Bury Me Softly In This Womb
I Give This Part Of Me For You
Sand Rains Down And Here I Sit
Holding Rare Flowers
In A Tomb.....In Bloom

Down In A Hole And I Don't Know
If I Can Be Saved
See My Heart I Decorate It
Like A Grave
You Don't Understand Who They
Thought I Was Supposed To Be
Look At Me Now A Man
Who Won't Let Himself Be

Down In A Hole, Losin' My Soul
Down In A Hole, Losin' Control
I'd Like To Fly
But My Wings Have Been So Denied

Down In A Hole And They've Put All
The Stones In Their Place
I've Eaten The Sun So My Tongue
Has Been Burned Of The Taste
I Have Been Guilty
Of Kicking Myself In The Teeth
I Will Speak No More
Of My Feelings Beneath

Oh I Want To Be Inside Of You

Down In A Hole, Losin' My Soul
Down In A Hole, Feelin' So Small
Down In A Hole, Losin' My Soul
Down In A Hole, Out Of Control

I'd Like To Fly
But My Wings Have Been So Denied

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Beatles -- Across The Universe

Words are flowing out like endless rain into a paper cup,
They slither while they pass, they slip away across the universe
Pools of sorrow, waves of joy are drifting through my open mind,
Possessing and caressing me.
Jai guru deva om
Nothing's gonna change my world,
Nothing's gonna change my world.
Images of broken light which dance before me like a million eyes,
They call me on and on across the universe,
Thoughts meander like a restless wind inside a letter box they
Tumble blindly as they make their way
Across the universe
Jai guru deva om
Nothing's gonna change my world,
Nothing's gonna change my world.

Sounds of laughter shades of earth are ringing
Through my open views inciting and inviting me
Limitless undying love which shines around me like a million suns, it calls me on and on
Across the universe
Jai guru deva om
Nothing's gonna change my world,
Nothing's gonna change my world.

Title: White Room


(chorus)
You are entering the white room
Yah,That's the password
And you can leave your hang-ups
At the door now
Coz this is the white room
My asylum
And you are welcome

Look at all you pretty people
Walking past my eyes
The room is getting smaller
There's a bright light deep inside
My toes are curling upwards
And my shoes have left my feet
They took away my velvet chair
My name is obsolete

But hell, we can get dreamy
Yeah
Delicious, we can be happy
Yeah
So happy i've been thinking about you
Yeah
And if you wanna come in
You got to knock three times

You are entering the white room
Yah,That's the password
And you can leave your hang-ups
At the door now
Coz this is the white room
My asylum
And you are welcome

Good heavens!
I don't know how you got here
Did you sneak inside my head?
Did you say a few sweet words
And sneak inside my bed?

Look at this, a huge big pillow
Come and lay your mind
And walk inside my crooked thought
And see what fun you'll find

Oh hell, we can get dreamy
Yeah
Delicious, we can be happy
Yeah
So happy, i've been thinking about you
Yeah
And if you wanna come in
You got to knock three times

You are entering the white room
Yah,That's the password
And you can leave your hang-ups
At the door now
Coz this is the white room
My asylum
And you are welcome

Positively spiritual
Definitely sexual
Could it be i'm cynical?
Or could it be I _well i
Like i said

Override, satisfied
Our love hits on the red
untill you show me that secret weapon
That shoots my fears all dead

This is the white room
My asylum
And you are welcome!

My Confession

... my confession

because i'm diluted
&
perfectly flawed

i shall
live by passion
&
not by law

and i'm
insecure ...
i need aggression

to
feed the spiders
of perception

and i'm
supposed to be strong
& have
all the answers

a
cannibal
in the
new church of cancer

but i'm
nothing special
i'm not unique

i have
many secrets
& i
eat the weak

and i'm
at an end

i'm at an end .....

and there's ...
NO WAY OUT!!

[chorus]

i need to find my sanctuary
..... someplace safe
gotta get this outta me
..... this is my escape

II.
and i
think about it
all the time

i'm
volatile
&
afraid to cry

but i'm
still not comfortable
in my skin

and the
anesthetics slowly
wearing thin

& i
need to talk to
someone new

i need a different
latitude

& i'm
in this void

all alone!
feeling needy

... hungry to grow

but i'm
suffocating
-- can't come down

and .... no ....
THERE'S NO WAY OUT!!!

[chorus]

i need to find my sanctuary
.... someplace safe
gotta get this outta me!
.... THIS IS MY ESCAPE!!!

--- all i see is sadness
all i see is sadness ....
what's left?

-- this will teach them.
this will teach them,

......you've got to......
push.
Push.
PUSH....
YOUR WAY OUT!!!

FOLLOW ME!
FOLLOW ME!
THIS IS YOUR WAY OUT!!

........you are not alone

- this is where i hide my power
- this is where i become free
- this is where i take control
- and slowly choke your fantasies

- i want to know my day is coming
- see my enemies be punished
- shed my skin again
- this will be my best revenge!!

SHED MY SKIN AGAIN
THIS WILL BE MY BEST REVENGE!

[I.]

say whut u need to save your soul
but don't fuck with me - eye'm losing control

eye'm so tired of this - so sick of u
my tongue is battered & bruised from all these attitudes

(sinner)

so teach me the magick of your sacred pomes
conjuring a voice of signs & omens

prophecies guide the breeze
w/syllables symbols breed

behind the eyes we climb the vine
to sacrifice our wounded minds

in soft wurd trances seek insanity
i can't save u cuz i hate me

[chorus]

the lord is my weapon - i shall shoot pawns
womyn is a devil - (your) GOD IS A FRAUD
everyone u knew - everything u've ever done
suffer for your freedom - RISE & OVERCOME

(sinner!)

[II.]

say whut u need to save your soul
but leave your religion at the door

we're smoking all of Krsna's weed
eye'm sick of these weak anarchies

u see me as a place to make a bruise
but in my reality eye'm a slave to the muse

fuck those hypocrites - together we'll fight
the tyranny of squares - SQUIGGLES UNITE

BURN IN THE PIT!!

BURN!

save me

WHY?

SALVATION!!

Lost Fun Zone - PJ Harvey

I believe I am here to stay

The fun zone is here

Please take me one more time
Take me one more time

placebo - this picture

I hold an image of the ashtray girl
As the cigarette burns on my chest
I wrote a poem that described her world
That put my friendship to the test
And late at night
Whilst on all fours
She used to watch me kiss the floor
What's wrong with this picture?
What's wrong with this picture?

Farewell the ashtray girl
Forbidden snowflake
Beware this troubled world
Watch out for earthquakes
Goodbye to open sores
To broken centre floor
We know we miss her
We miss her picture

Sometimes it's faded
Disintegrated
For fear of growing old
Sometimes it's faded
Assassinated
For fear of growing old

Farewell the ashtray girl
Angelic fruitcake
Beware this troubled world
Control your intake
Goodbye to open sores
Goodbye and furthermore
We know we miss her
We miss her picture

Sometimes it's faded
Disintegrated
For fear of growing old
Sometimes it's faded
Assassinated
For fear of growing old

Hang on
Though we try
It's gone
Hang on
Though we try
It's gone

Sometimes it's faded
Disintegrated
For fear of growing old
Sometimes it's faded
Assassinated
For fear of growing old
Can't stop growing old...
 
Despite absolutely despising the band (or more precisely, how Fred raped the band) I do have a soft spot for some of the songs hidden on Significant other

Limp Bizkit - Don't Go Off Wandering

Every day it's nothing but stress to me
Constantly dwellin' on how you got the best of me
Wanna know somethin I can't believe
The way you keep testin' me
And mentally molesting me
Would you think any less of me
If I said that I'd be there
Would you think any less of me
If I said I really care
Of course you would
Cause you only want what you can't have
As for me I'm stuck with my dick in my hand
Because you don't feel nothing at all
You don't feel nothing at all

Maybe there's more to life than it seems
Constantly running from reality chasing dreams
Wanna know somethin' I can't believe
Just how much misery comes with humility
Do you think any less of me now that I'm gone
Look at me now
Everything is gone
I can't seem to do anything right
But I figured out why you don't let me inside
Because you don't feel nothing at all
You don't feel nothing at all
Nothing at all

You need nothing from me now
So you think I'm useless to you now
But I need one thing from you now
I insist that you feel me now
You said, you said, you needed, you said
You don't feel nothing at all
You don't feel nothing at all

Title: I Dare You To Move



Welcome to the planet
Welcome to existence
Everyone's here
Everyone's watching you now
Everybody waits for you now
What happens next?

I dare you to move
I dare you to lift yourself up off the floor
I dare you to move
Like today never happened
Today never happened before

Welcome to the fallout
Welcome to resistance

The tension is here
Between who you are and who you could be
Between how it is and how it should be

Maybe redemption has stories to tell
maybe forgiveness is right where you fell
Where can you run to escape from yourself?
Where you gonna go?
Where you gonna go?
Salvation is here
