Favorite Song Lyrics

It definitely is something I’d say! :stuck_out_tongue: I’m just hoping I don’t find any lost daughters I don’t know about… O_O" jk… That’s not a possibility for me, thankfully… :stuck_out_tongue:

[quote]Ohh, I’ve got a couple of lyrics that have meant something to me.

Die Toten Hosen
Pushed Again

Whispering voices in my head,
sounds like they’re calling my name.
A heavy hand is shaking my bed,
I’m waking up and I feel the strain.

This is actually my favorite song and is my cell phone ring tone, I relate this first part of the song to someone getting me out of bed - I like sleeping; good luck getting me up.

Offspring
You’re Gonna Go Far Kid

With a thousand lies
And a good disguise
Hit ‘em right between the eyes
Hit ‘em right between the eyes
When you walk away
Nothing more to say
See the lightning in your eyes
See ‘em running for their lives

I enjoy this one as it’s a bit personal. With a convincing face and vocal tone, any lie can be passed off as the truth. I enjoy wearing different types of clothes, a kick back to good old ‘Dress up’. Then, I am stubborn and when I’ve become angry, I have sent people running. A few tricks my mother taught me.

Skillet
Whispers in the Dark

Despite the lies that you’re making
Your love is mine for the taking
My love is just waiting
To turn your tears to roses

I will be the one that’s gonna hold you
I will be the one that you run to
My love is a burning, consuming fire

No, you’ll never be alone
When darkness comes I’ll light the night with stars
Hear my whispers in the dark
No, you’ll never be alone
When darkness comes you know I’m never far
Hear the whispers in the dark
Whispers in the dark

You feel so lonely and ragged
You lay there broken and naked
My love is just waiting
To clothe you in crimson roses

I just like this whole song is all

SR-71
Goodbye

Now it’s there to see
You’ve forgiven me
Ever since I was the prince among thieves
So you hold me down
Strip away my crown

This one pretty much points to a part in my life where I was on top and had a lot of things stripped from me, due to very unjust reasons. But, I’m back on top now.[/quote]

Gotta love The Offspring and Skillet! I saw Skillet live. Great lyrics. :slight_smile:

Himeno?? o_O" No… this can’t be true… it’s not mine!!

Foamy Jr. Has a nice ring to it…

Lol, I mean… Noooooooooooo! I’m too young! Ah oh well… I like kids better than college anyways…

I little dramatic organ music and we have ourselves a scene from Mecha. Although cody probably wouldn’t have skipped on the baby making part of it. The fiend. lol

Death Cab For Cutie

So everybody put your best suit or dress on
Let’s make believe that we are wealthy for just this once
Lighting firecrackers off on the front lawn
As thirty dialogs bleed into one

I wish the world was flat like the old days
Then I could travel just by folding a map
No more airplanes, or speed trains, or freeways
There’d be no distance that could hold us back.

Lol I’m kind of sad I missed the good part too… :stuck_out_tongue:

-spit takes on computer screen- Damn, that’s like the 3rd time today.

Hahaha what were the other 2 times?

I think either you or Alita sent that song to me.

Here’s Pink Floyd’s “Dogs”:

You gotta be crazy, you gotta have a real need.
You gotta sleep on your toes, and when you’re on the street,
You gotta be able to pick out the easy meat with your eyes closed.
And then moving in silently, down wind and out of sight,
You gotta strike when the moment is right without thinking.

And after a while, you can work on points for style.
Like the club tie, and the firm handshake,
A certain look in the eye and an easy smile.
You have to be trusted by the people that you lie to,
So that when they turn their backs on you,
You’ll get the chance to put the knife in.

You gotta keep one eye looking over your shoulder.
You know it’s going to get harder, and harder, and harder as you
get older.
And in the end you’ll pack up and fly down south,
Hide your head in the sand,
Just another sad old man,
All alone and dying of cancer.

And when you lose control, you’ll reap the harvest you have sown.
And as the fear grows, the bad blood slows and turns to stone.
And it’s too late to lose the weight you used to need to throw
around.
So have a good drown, as you go down, all alone,
Dragged down by the stone.

I gotta admit that I’m a little bit confused.
Sometimes it seems to me as if I’m just being used.
Gotta stay awake, gotta try and shake off this creeping malaise.
If I don’t stand my own ground, how can I find my way out of this
maze?

Deaf, dumb, and blind, you just keep on pretending
That everyone’s expendable and no-one has a real friend.
And it seems to you the thing to do would be to isolate the winner
And everything’s done under the sun,
And you believe at heart, everyone’s a killer.

Who was born in a house full of pain.
Who was trained not to spit in the fan.
Who was told what to do by the man.
Who was broken by trained personnel.
Who was fitted with collar and chain.
Who was given a pat on the back.
Who was breaking away from the pack.
Who was only a stranger at home.
Who was ground down in the end.
Who was found dead on the phone.
Who was dragged down by the stone.

Here’s a few that are really important to me. There a bit sappy, but deal with it. All by Gloria Estefan.

Along Came You

I thought that I knew all there was to know
I knew all about love
I lived the highs and made it through the lows
I knew all about love
But now I must admit Im surprised
And feel Ive only scratched the surface
cause baby when I look in your eyes
I understand my one true purpose

You were sent to me
By angels up above, Im certain
I thought Id show you what love can be
But what did I know
Until along came you
To teach me about love
Oh yes, along came you
To teach me about love

And as this feeling grows with every day
You awaken my heart
A heart so full I fear that it may break
If were ever apart
And though one day youll be own your own
You know I always will be near you
As near as on the day you were born
Call on me, you know Ill hear you

You were sent to me
For one reason, I can tell you
Youre here to show me what love can be
cause what did I know
Until along came you
To teach me about love
Oh yes, along came you
To teach me about love

Thula thula sana
U mama uyeza
Thula thula sana
Thula thula sana
U mama uyeza

You were sent to me
By angels up above, Im certain
Youre here to show me what love can be
cause what did I know
Until along came you
To teach me about love, oh
Oh yes, along came you
To teach me about love
Teach me about love
Oh yes, along came you
Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby
Teach me about love
Baby, baby teach me about love
Oh yes, along came you

-This was actually written about the birth of her daughter. After her bus accident in PA, she was told she could never conceive another child. But a few years later, she gave birth to her second child, Emily.

Reach

Some dreams live on in time forever
Those dreams, you want with all your heart
And Ill do whatever it takes
Follow through with the promise I made
Put it all on the line
What I hoped for at last would be mine

If I could reach, higher
Just for one moment touch the sky
From that one moment in my life
Im gonna be stronger
Know that Ive tried my very best
Id put my spirit to the test
If I could reach

Some days are meant to be remembered
Those days we rise above the stars
So Ill go the distance this time
Seeing more the higher I climb
That the more I believe
All the more that this dream will be mine

If I could reach, higher
Just for one moment touch the sky
From that one moment in my life
Im gonna be stronger
Know that Ive tried my very best
Id put my spirit to the test
If I could reach

If I could reach, higher
Just for one moment touch the sky
Im goona be stronger
From that one moment in my life
Im gonna be so much stronger yes I am
Know that Ive tried my very best
Id put my spirit to the test
If I could reach higher
If I could, if I could
If I could reach
Reach, Id reach, Id reach
Id reach Id reach so much higher
Be stronger

-This song is probably more important to me than any other song in the world, for reasons I can’t really go into here. But it helped get me through a really rough time in my life.

This is another sappy one, also by Gloria Estefan. It was written for a benefit concert for victims of Hurricane Andrew.

Always Tomorrow

Ive been alone inside myself, far too long
Never really wanted it that way, but I let it happen
If I could do it all again, my life would be infinitely better than before
I wouldnt waste a moment
Make time for laughing with my friends
Make love, make music, make amends
Try to make a difference, try to love, try to understand
Instead of just giving up, Id use the power at my command

(chorus)
Thats why theres always tomorrow, to start over again
Things will never stay the same, the only one sure thing is change.
Thats why theres always tommorow

I guess it took a little time, for me to see
The reason I was born into this world,
And what Id have to go through
For Ive finially realized, that I could beinfinitely better than before, defintely stronger
Ill face whatever comes my way, savor each moment of the day,
Love as many people as I can along the way
Help someone whos given up, if its just to raise my eyes and pray

(chorus)

(bridge)

Before your last setting sun
And everything your heart has longed for
Has yet to be (one)
Yes theres always tomorrow though people come and they go
But if you,ve brought some love to their lives
Then youve got something to show

Yeah, it’s another song that got me through some rough times, so it will always have a lot of meaning to me.

Good stuff. :slight_smile:

Breaking Benjamin: Dear Agony (4th Studio Album)

**“Into The Nothing”
**
Screaming on the inside
I am frail and withered
Cover up the wounds
That I can’t hide
Walls that lie between us
The saint within the sinner
I have lost the nerve
But it’s all right
Carry the wounded and shut your eyes
All will be forgiven
None will rise
Bury the fallen and lead the blind
I will fight the loss
Dead inside

Into the nothing
Faded and weary
I won’t leave and let you fall behind
Live for the dying
Heaven hear me
I know we can make it out alive

Leave me at the bottom
I am lost forever
Letters from the dead
Say goodbye
Sorrow falls upon us
This will be the last time
Days begin to end
But I’ll get by
Follow the hopeless
And shut your eyes

All will be abandoned
None will shine
Gather the broken and leave this life
Lying in the earth
Side by side

Into the nothing
Faded and weary
I won’t leave and let him flll behind
Live for the dying
Heaven hear me
I know we can make it out alive

I’ll keep you inside
Where I lead you cannot follow
Straight into the light
As my breath grows still and shallow

Into the nothing
Faded and weary
I won’t leave and let them fall behind
Live for the dying
Heaven hear me
I know we can make it out alive

Stay with me
You’re all I have left
I know we can make it out alive
Stay with me
You’re all I have left
I know we can make it out alive

Here is a silly one, but really has a deep meaning for me.

I Loved You (Sarah Brightman)

It was a plastic age with plastic tears
A total addiction to the wonder years
I’m a believer was where its at
He’s singing oh Lola lady lay lady lay
She’s fixing a hole down on Blue Jay Way
American Pie on your Tupperware
He paints an Andy-Pandy Campbell’s tins
Boys in the jungle on your TV screen
In tricky dicky’s love machine
We’ll take an easy ride and have some fun
On Dylan’s Highway 61
In California dreaming sun
That was when I loved you I loved you…

They were the living years of stainless steel
Praying for a time in a fortune wheel
Smooth operator was where its at

So welcome all of you to the pleasure dome
Of taking the look from the homeless zone
With digital aids in your telephone

Another day in paradise is nice
From Ronnie’s recession’s nice advice
Coz UB40’s ice is vice
So don’t you let the sun go down on me
Coz I wanna break free from your MTV
To virtual reality

I loved you from the shadow of the past
I loved you
I never dreamed that it would last
I loved you
You gave me joy you gave me tears

I loved you
And took away the wonder years

Another that has meaning for me.

My Life (Billy Joel)

Got a call from an old friend
We used to be real close
Said he couldn’t go on the American way
Closed the shop, sold the house
Bought a ticket to the West Coast
Now he gives them a stand-up routine in L.A.

I don’t need you to worry for me cause I’m alright
I don’t want you to tell me it’s time to come home
I don’t care what you say anymore, this is my life
Go ahead with your own life, leave me alone

I never said you had to offer me a second chance
(I never said you had to)
I never said I was a victim of circumstance
(I never said)
I still belong, don’t get me wrong
You can speak your mind
But not on my time

They will tell you, you can’t sleep alone in a strange place
Then they’ll tell you, you can’t sleep with somebody else
Ah, but sooner or later you sleep in your own space
Either way it’s okay to wake up with yourself

I don’t need you to worry for me cause I’m alright
I don’t want you to tell me it’s time to come home
I don’t care what you say anymore, this is my life
Go ahead with your own life, leave me alone

I never said you had to offer me a second chance
(I never said you had to)
I never said I was a victim of circumstance
(Of circumstance)
I still belong, don’t get me wrong
You can speak your mind
But not on my time

I don’t care what you say anymore, this is my life
Go ahead with your own life, leave me alone

(Keep it to yourself, it’s my life.)
(Keep it to yourself, it’s my life.)
(Keep it to yourself, it’s my life.)
(Keep it to yourself, it’s my life.)

And one more special one that I love.

In My Life (The Beatles)

There are places I remember
All my life though some have changed
Some forever not for better
Some have gone and some remain
All these places had 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

Good lyrics!

Trapt: Someone In Control (2nd Studio Album)

"Waiting"

I wanna meet up with you
And show you what I’m thinking
I’ll take you anywhere
That you wanna go
I’m sitting here bored and lonely and
You know that anytime you’re free
To show me how you feel
We’ll take it anywhere that you want to go
Anywhere that you wanna go

And I’d make it right if you wanted it
I want it back more than you know
I’d cross the line if you wanted it
I want you back

And I’m waiting for you
To get that feeling once again
Reunited in the end
And I’ve been waiting for you
To capture my imagination
Cuz I’ve been fooled by the illusions in my head
In my head

Now I realize I never had it so good
You took me anywhere I wanted to go
Now I’m sitting here dreaming of the days
When anytime I wanted I could show you how I feel
I can’t go anywhere that I want to go
Anywhere that I want to go

And I’d make it right if you wanted it
I want it back more than you know
I’d cross the line if you wanted it
I want you back

And I’m waiting for you
To get that feeling once again
Reunited in the end
And I’ve been waiting for you
To capture my imagination
Cuz I’ve been fooled by the illusions in my head
In my head

I’ll take it anywhere
I’ll take it anywhere
I’ll take it anywhere
I’ll take you anywhere you wanna go

And I’d make it right if you wanted it
I want it back more than you know
I’d cross the line if you wanted it
I want you back

I’m waiting for you
To get that feeling once again
Reunited in the end
I’ve been waiting for you
To capture my imagination
Cuz I’ve been fooled by the illusions in my head

And I’ve been fooled by the illusions in my head
And I’ve been fooled by the illusions in my head

Linkin Park

Crawling in my skin, these wounds they will not heal…
fear is how I fall, confusing what is real!

Gotta love Linkin Park! :slight_smile: Don’t care for when they add Jay-Z though… Their stuff is too good to begin with to mess it up with the remixes… imo

Winter in July (Sarah Brightman)

Look around wonder why
we can live a life that’s never satisfied
Lonely hearts troubled minds
looking for a way that we can never find
Many roads are ahead of us
with choices to be made
But life’s just one of the
games we play
There is no special way
Make the best of what’s given you
everything will come in time
why deny yourself
don’t just let life pass you by
like winter in July

Future dreams can never last
when you find yourself still living in the past
Keep moving on to higher ground
looking for the way you thought could not be found
We may not know the reason why
we’re born into this world
where a man only lives to die
his story left untold
Make the best of what’s given you
everything will come in time
why deny yourself
don’t just let life pass you by
like winter in July

And we may not know the reason why
we’re born into this world
where a man only lives to cry
his story left untold
Make the best of what’s given you
everything will come in time
why deny yourself
don’t just let life pass you by
like winter in July
