"Careless Whispers", by George Michael I feel so unsure As I take your hand and lead you to the dance floor. As the music dies, something in your eyes Calls to mind the silver screen And all its sad good-byes I'm never gonna dance again, Guilty feet have got no rhythm, Though it's easy to pretend, I know you're not a fool. Should've known better than to cheat a friend, And waste the chance that I've been given. So I'm never gonna dance again, The way I danced with you. Time can never mend The careless whispers of a good friend. To the heart and mind, Ignorance is kind. There's no comfort in the truth, Pain is all you'll find. I'm never gonna dance again, Guilty feet have got no rhythm, Though it's easy to pretend, I know you're not a fool. Should've known better than to cheat a friend, And waste the chance that I've been given. So I'm never gonna dance again, The way I danced with you. Never without your love... Tonight the music seems so loud, I wish that we could lose this crowd. Maybe it's better this way, We'd hurt each other with the things we'd want to say. We could have been so good together, We could have lived this dance forever, But noone's gonna dance with me. Please stay! And I'm never gonna dance again, Guilty feet have got no rhythm, Though it's easy to pretend, I know you're not a fool. Should've known better than to cheat a friend, And waste the chance that I've been given. So I'm never gonna dance again, The way I danced with you. Now that you're gone What I did so wrong, that you had to leave me alone |
Helena Beat Foster the People Sometimes life it takes you by the hand. It pulls you down before you know it It’s gone and you’re dead again. I’ve been in places and I won’t pretend Yeah I'd make it out just to fall on my head Wake up strange and take the walk downstairs Hit the pawn up on the corner and pay for my rent You know that I could not believe my own truth Just show them what I choose, got nothing to lose Yeah yeah and it’s O.K. I tie my hands up to a chair so I don’t fall that way. Yeah yeah and I’m alright. I took a sip of something poison but I’ll hold on tight. You know those days when you want to just choose To not get out of bed, you're lost in your head again. You play the game but you kind of cut ’Cause you’re coming down hard and your joints are all stuck. I tried to say that’s not the only way I never knew if I could face myself to change. You were pacing I was insecure. Slip and fall, I'm dodging calls, hug the prison I've been living in. Yeah yeah and it’s O.K. I tie my hands up to a chair so I don’t fall that way. Yeah yeah and I’m alright. I took a sip of something poison but I’ll hold on tight. |
"I run from hate, I run from prejudice
I run from pessimists, but I run too late I run my life or is it running me, run from my past I run too fast or too slow it seems When lies become the truth That's when I run to you This world keeps spinning faster Into a new disaster so I run to you, I run to you baby When it all starts coming undone Baby, you're the only one I run to, I run to you" ~I Run To You Lady Antebellum |
"'81," by Joanna Newsom I found a little plot of land in the garden of eden it was dirt and dirt is all the same I tilled it with my two hands and I called it my very own There was no one to dispute my claim Well, you'd be shocked at the state of things The whole place had just cleared right out It was hotter than hell, so I lay me by a spring For a spell as naked as a trout The wandering eye that I have caught Is as hot as a wandering sun But I will want for nothing more, in the garden To start again In the hardening of every new heart but one Meet me in the garden of Eden, Bring a friend, we are going to have a time We have are going to have a garden party, It's on me, no sir-e, it's my dime We broke out hearts in the war between St. George and the dragon But both in equal parts are welcome to come along To come along, I'm inviting everyone Farewell, to loves that i have known Even muddiest as waters run Tell me what is meant by sitting alone in a garden, Seceded from the Union in the year of '81? The unending amends you made Are enough for one life, be done I believe in innocence, little darling, start again I believe in everyone I believe, regardless, I believe in everyone |
"In For The Kill"
We can fight our desires, oo-oo But when we start making fires We get ever so hot, oo-oo Whether we like it or not They say we can love who we trust, oo-oo But what is love without lust. Two hearts with accurate devotion, oo-oo What are feelings without emotions? [Chorus:] I'm going in for the kill I'm doing it for a thrill Oh, I'm hoping you'll understand And not let go of my hand [repeat 2x] I had my hopes out on the line, oo-oo Well they'll be ready for you in time. If you leave them out too long, oo-oo They'll be withered by the sun. Full stops and exclamation marks, oo-oo My heart stopped moving 'fore I start. How far can you send emotions? oo-oo Can this bridge cross the ocean? [Chorus] Let's go to war to make peace Let's be cold to create heat I hope in darkness we can see And you're not blinded by the light from me Woo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo [Chorus] |
"Tourist Trap," by Bright Eyes It's not the road we used to know They tore some buildings down The traffic's like a pack of dogs There's fewer trees, windows, fleas There's concrete on the lawn There's people here, but you are gone And I find I'm still swimming through time Afraid some days I've reached the shore "Make yourself free" Man said back to me Now my heart is like an open door And the road finally gave me back But I don't think I'll unpack Because I'm not sure if I live here anymore It's not my weight that makes me faint Or the sugar in my blood But the way these strangers stand so close They say my name like it's a guessing game "Is that really you?" No, I don't think it ever was In the spring When the world's turning green I only think about the fall The frets on the board My progression of chords Oh, how I want this to resolve And the road finally gave me back But I don't think I'll unpack Because I'm not sure if I live here anymore Now the road finally gave me back But I don't think I'll unpack Because I'm not sure if I live here Not sure if I live here Not sure if I live here Anymore |
Some pieces of lyrics I like:
Lil Wayne ft. Eminem - Drop the world I've got ice in my veins blood in my eyes hate in my heart love in my mind I've seen nights full of pain days of the same you keep the sunshine save me the rain I search but never find I hurt but never cry I work and forever try but I'm cursed so never mind and its worse but better times seems further and beyond the top gets higher the more that I climb ----- I know what they dont wanna tell you just hope your heaven sent and ya hell proof i’ll wake up in the World and cut the lights off and confidence is a stain they cant wipe off This music video you must see Oren Lavie - Her morning elegance Sun been down for days A pretty flower in a vase A slipper by the fireplace A cello lying in its case Soon she's down the stairs Her morning elegance she wears The sound of water makes her dream Awoken by a cloud of steam She pours a daydream in a cup A spoon of sugar sweetens up And She fights for her life As she puts on her coat And she fights for her life on the train She looks at the rain As it pours And she fights for her life As she goes in a store With a thought she has caught By a thread She pays for the bread And She goes... Nobody knows Sun been down for days A winter melody she plays The thunder makes her contemplate She hears a noise behind the gate Perhaps a letter with a dove Perhaps a stranger she could love And She fights for her life As she puts on her coat And she fights for her life on the train She looks at the rain As it pours And she fights for her life As she goes in a store With a thought she has caught By a thread She pays for the bread And She goes... Nobody knows And She fights for her life As she puts on her coat And she fights for her life on the train She looks at the rain As it pours And she fights for her life Where people are pleasently strange And counting the change And She goes... Nobody knows Eminem - Beautiful Are you calling me? Are you trying to get through? Are you reaching out for me? Like I'm reaching out for you.. Anouk - Lost If roses are meant to be red And violets to be blue Why isn't my heart meant for you Anouk - I don't wanna hurt We're breaking things we can't repair and none of us will take the blame No, nothing can be done this time All the memories that we've made I've threw them all away There's no need to talk it over Don't let me get you down Let's just move on I am setting you free 'Cause I don't wanna hurt no more No, I don't wanna make you go through one more rainy day No, I don't wanna hurt no more Strange enough I always knew I'm taking off today Don't wanna hurt no more The darkness you left in my soul And do we know how much we've lost? Will the moon be shining as bright as before? And as I'm singing this song the tears well up in my eyes And I will always wonder why I will never have the life I wanted Now I'm letting it go 'Cause I don't wanna hurt no more No, I don't wanna make you go through one more rainy day No, I don't wanna hurt no more There's not much more to say 'Cause it's too late now I won't hurt no more So I wait 'til morning comes You made it clear that it has been only pain loving me The things that we won't do for love I am setting you free 'Cause I don't wanna hurt no more I don't wanna make you go through one more rainy day No, I don't wanna hurt no more Strange enough I always knew I'm taking off today I am letting you go... |
"Ahead of the Curve," by Monsters of Folk Another perfect day They keep piling up I got happiness That I can't maintain, so beginner's luck I had shoes to fill Walking barefoot now Can't tell north from south But no split hair's gonna get me down I'm staying above the flatline I'm ahead of the curve Take a piece of the sunshine with me On a red eye flight to another world It isn't any trouble If you wanna come with me I know it's out of the question, honey But I sure could use the company And a place to be Now the sky is pink Rooftop swimming pool I'm not carefree, no I'm free to care, I just never do All the bags are checked And the reasons why Yesterday lingers on That's the peace you keep when you say goodbye You can get what you want now Knock it out of the park Bury it by the river Easy, there's a search party But it's getting dark I won't hold you to nothing I wanna make that plane Probably end up a stranger, crazy But I'm still hoping there's another way And a place to stay What a scene has got you sentimental When the night comes, when the night comes loose All the things you've put up on the mantle What a shame, what a shame it's old news I'm staying above the flatline I'm ahead of the curve Take a piece of the sunshine with me On an all-night drive to another world You can get what you want now Knock it out of the park Probably end up a drifter, lonely But I'm still hoping for a change of heart And a place, a place, a place to start |
I think my love for Conor Oberst is gaining unhealthy proportions.
"Old Soul Song (For the New World Order)," by Bright Eyes Grey light, new day leaks through the window And some old soul song comes on the alarm clock radio We walk the forty blocks to the middle Of the place we heard where everything would be And there were barracades to keep us off the street But the crowd kept pushing forward Until they swallowed the police Yeah, they went wild Yeah, they went wild Yeah, they went wild We left before the dust had time to settle And all the broken glass swept off the avenue And on the way home I held your camera like a bible Just wishing so bad that it held some kind of truth And I stood nervous next to you in the dark room You dropped the paper in the water And it all begins to bloom Yeah, they go wild Yeah, they go wild Yeah, they go wild Yeah, they go wild And just when I get so lonesome I can't speak I see some flowers on a hillside Like a wall of new TVs Yeah, they go wild |
I think I might have posted this before but I can't remember. Short, but perfect.
"Bookends," by Simon and Garfunkel Time it was and what a time it was, it was A time of innocence a time of confidences. Long ago it must be, I have a photograph Preserve your memories, they're all that's left you |
"I felt the hand of god and that's the last thing that I felt."
-The Faint, "Ballad of a Paralyzed Citizen" |
Mine by Taylor Swift:
You were in college, working part-time, waiting tables Left a small town and never looked back I was a flight risk, with the fear of fallin' Wondering why we bother with love, if it never lasts I say, "Can you believe it?" As we're lyin' on the couch The moment, I can see it Yes, yes, I can see it now Do you remember, we were sittin' there, by the water? You put your arm around me for the fist time You made a rebel of a careless man's careful daughter You are the best thing that's ever been mine Flash forward, and we're takin' on the world together And there's a drawer of my things at your place You learn my secrets and figure out why I'm bothered You say we'll never make my parents' mistakes But we got bills to pay We got nothin' figured out When it was hard to take Yes, yes This is what I thought about: Do you remember, we were sittin' there, by the water? You put your arm around me for the fist time You made a rebel of a careless man's careful daughter You are the best thing that's ever been mine Do you remember all the city lights on the water? You saw me start to believe for the first time You made a rebel of a careless man's careful daughter You are the best thing that's ever been mine Oh, oh, oh, oh And I remember that fight, two-thirty AM You said everything was slipping right out of our hands I ran out, crying, and you followed me out into the street Braced myself for the goodbye, cause that's all I've ever known Then, you took me by surprise You said, "I'll never leave you alone." You said, "I remember how we felt, sitting by the water. And every time I look at you, it's like the first time. I fell in love with a careless man's careful daughter. She is the best thing that's ever been mine." You made a rebel of a careless man's careful daughter You are the best thing that's ever been mine Do you believe it? We're gonna make it now And I can see it I can see it now |
"All I Want is You," by U2 You say you want Diamonds in a ring of gold You say you want Your story to remain untold But all the promises we make From the cradle to the grave When all I want is you You say you'll give me A highway with no one on it A treasure just to look upon it All the riches in the night You say you'll give me Eyes in a moon of blindness A river in a time of dryness A harbor in the tempest But all the promises we make From the cradle to the grave When all I want is you You say you want Your love to work out right To last with me through the night You say you want Diamonds in a ring of gold Your story to remain untold Your love not to grow cold All the promises we break From the cradle to the grave When all I want is you All I want is you All I want is you All I want is you You |
Does it ever feel like
No one is with you No one sees it your way Everyone's against you But it's your life Gotta keep the faith Hold your vision You will find your way I may not fit the mold May not do what I'm told I will not be swayed By the things that they might say They may have had their doubts No matter what I've found I have held my ground Look at me, I'm still around So dream on, dream on, yeah Don't ever let them steer you wrong When life comes knocking Gotta keep on rocking Open that door and Shout it to the world, singing Hello Christina aguilera - Hello |
"Soul Meets Body," by Death Cab For Cutie
I want to live where soul meets body And let the sun wrap its arms around me And bathe my skin in water cool and cleansing And feel, feel what its like to be new Cause in my head there's a greyhound station Where I send my thoughts to far off destinations So they may have a chance of finding a place where they're far more suited than here I cannot guess what we'll discover Between the dirt with our palms cut like shovels But I know our filthy hand can wash one another's And not one speck will remain I do believe it's true That there are roads left in both of our shoes If the silence takes you Then I hope it takes me too So brown eyes I hold you near Cause you're the only song I want to hear A melody softly soaring through my atmosphere Where soul meets body Where soul meets body Where soul meets body I do believe it's true That there are holes left in both of our shoes If the silence takes you Then I hope it takes me too So brown eyes I hold you near Cause you're the only song I want to hear A melody softly soaring through my atmosphere A melody softly soaring through my atmosphere A melody softly soaring through my atmosphere A melody softly soaring through my atmosphere Sorry if it's been posted before. |
"Hit The Switch," by Bright Eyes I'm staring out into that vacuum again From the back porch of my mind The only thing that's alive, I'm all there is And I start attacking my vodka Stab the ice with my straw My eyes have turned red as stoplights You seem ready to walk You know I'll call you eventually When I wanna talk, 'til then you're invisible Cause there's this switch that gets hit And it all stops making sense And in the middle of drinks Maybe the fifth or the sixth I'm completely alone at a table of friends I feel nothing for them I feel nothing, nothing. Well I need a break from the city again I think I'll ship myself back west I've got a friend there she says, "Hey, anytime" Unless that offer has expired I have been less than frequent She's under no obligation To indulge every whim And I'm so ungrateful, I take She gives and forgives and I keep forgetting it And each morning she wakes With a dream to describe Something lovely that bloomed In her beautiful mind I say, "I'll trade you one For two nightmares of mine, I have somewhere I die, I have somewhere we all die" I'm thinking of quitting drinking again I know I've said that a couple of times And I'm always changing my mind Well I guess I am But there's this burn in my stomach And there's this pain in my side And when I kneel at the toilet And the morning's clean light Pours in through the window Sometimes I pray I don't die I'm a goddamn hypocrite But then night rolls around and it all starts making sense There is no right way or wrong way, you just have to live And so I do what I do, and at least I exist What could mean more than this? What would mean more, mean more? |
"Temazcal," by Monsters of Folk Putting on my power, righteous as a rose Dynamite the mountain, now I'm walking up the road Oh, love we made at gunpoint wasn't love at all The dancing in the valley, the moons, the mirrored ball Blew open my mind, now it's an empty room Swinging in the hammock, dogs are walking across the roof I watch you braid your hair, you're from another time When the earth wasn't so angry and God was on our side Searching west and east All points in between Underneath the lines of thought You're there and then you're not The Mayans stole tomorrow, hid it underground We come with heavy magnets but it still hasn't been found I'm sweating out my secrets in the temazcal The screaming in the calle that there are stars about to fall Looking through the trees Cities and the seas Things we see always on the line They're there and then they're gone They're there and then they're gone Searching west and east All points in between Underneath the hand of God You're there and then you're not You're there and then you're not |
"I Will Follow You Into The Dark," by Death Cab For Cutie Love of mine some day you will die But I'll be close behind I'll follow you into the dark No blinding light or tunnels to gates of white Just our hands clasped so tight Waiting for the hint of a spark If Heaven and Hell decide That they both are satisfied Illuminate the NOs on their vacancy signs If there's no one beside you When your soul embarks Then I'll follow you into the dark In Catholic school as vicious as Roman rule I got my knuckles bruised by a lady in black And I held my tongue as she told me "Son fear is the heart of love" So I never went back If Heaven and Hell decide That they both are satisfied Illuminate the NOs on their vacancy signs If there's no one beside you When your soul embarks Then I'll follow you into the dark You and me have seen everything to see From Bangkok to Calgary And the soles of your shoes are all worn down The time for sleep is now It's nothing to cry about 'cause we'll hold each other soon In the blackest of rooms If Heaven and Hell decide That they both are satisfied Illuminate the No's on their vacancy signs If there's no one beside you When your soul embarks Then I'll follow you into the dark Then I'll follow you into the dark |
Last installment of my Death Cab For Cutie spam.
"Crooked Teeth," by Death Cab For Cutie It was one hundred degrees As we sat beneath a willow tree Whose tears didn't care They just hung in the air And refused to fall, to fall And I knew I'd made a horrible call And now the state line felt Like the Berlin wall And there was no doubt About which side I was on 'Cause I built you a home in my heart With rotten wood, it decayed from the start 'Cause you can't find nothing at all If there was nothing there all along No you can't find nothing at all If there was nothing there all along I braved treacherous streets And kids strung out On homemade speed And we shared a bed In which I could not sleep at all 'Cause that night the sun in retreat Made the skyline look Like crooked teeth In the mouth of a man Who was devouring, us both You're so cute when you're slurring your speech But they're closing the bar and they want us to leave And you can't find nothing at all If there was nothing there all along No you can't find nothing at all If there was nothing there all along I'm a war of head versus heart And it's always this way My head is weak, my heart always speaks Before I know what it will say And you can't find nothing at all If there was nothing there all along No you can't find nothing at all If there was nothing there all along And you can't find nothing at all If there was nothing there all along There were churches, theme parks and malls But there was nothing there all along. |
"April Come She Will," by Simon & Garfunkel April, come she will When streams are ripe and swelled with rain May, she will stay Resting in my arms again June, she'll change her tune In restless walks, she'll prowl the night July, she will fly And give no warning to her flight August, die she must The autumn winds blow chilly and cold September, I'll remember A love once new has now grown old |
Shadow Of The Day by Linkin Park
I close both locks below the window I close both blinds and turn away Sometimes solutions aren't so simple Sometimes goodbye's the only way And the sun will set for you The sun will set for you And the shadow of the day Will embrace the world in grey And the sun will set for you Pink cards and flowers on your window Your friends all plead for you to stay Sometimes beginnings aren't so simple Sometimes goodbye's the only way And the sun will set for you The sun will set for you And the shadow of the day Will embrace the world in grey And the sun will set for you And the shadow of the day Will embrace the world in grey And the sun will set for you And the shadow of the day Will embrace the world in grey And the sun will set for you |
"Love Interruption," by Jack White I want love To roll me over slowly stick a knife inside me, and twist it all around. I want love to grab my fingers gently slam them in a doorway put my face into the ground. I want love to murder my own mother and take her off to somewhere like hell or up above. I want love to change my friends to enemies, change my friends to enemies and show me how it's all my fault. I wont let love disrupt, corrupt or interrupt me Yeah I wont let love disrupt, corrupt, or interrupt me anymore. I want love to walk right up and bite me grab a hold of me and fight me leave me dying on the ground. And I want love to split my mouth wide open and cover up my ears, and never let me hear a sound. I want love to, forget that you offended me or how you have defended me, when everybody tore me down. Yeah I want love to change my friends to enemies, change my friends to enemies and show me how it's all my fault. Yeah I wont let love disrupt, corrupt or interrupt me I wont let love disrupt, corrupt or interrupt me I wont let love disrupt, corrupt, or interrupt me anymore. |
"Splendor In The Grass" by Pink Martini I can see you're thinking baby I've been thinking too About the way we used to be And how to start a new Maybe I'm a hopeless dreamer Maybe I've got it wrong But I'm going where the grass is green If you'd like to come along Back when I was starting out I always wanted more But everytime I got it I still felt just like before Fortune is a fickle friend I'm tired of chasing fate And when I look into your eyes I know you feel the same All these years of living large Are starting to do a sin I won't say it wasn't fun But now it has to end Life is moving oh so fast I think we should take it slow Rest our heads upon the grass And listen to it grow Going where the hills are green And the cars are few and far Days are full of splendor And at night you can see the stars Life is moving oh so fast I think we should take it slow Rest our heads upon the grass And listen to it grow |

Hmm...
I have two favourite SONGS but not lyrics.
First One: The Kids From Yesterday by My Chemical Romance Well now this could be the last of all the rides we take So hold on tight and don't look back We don't care about the message or the rules they make I'll find you when the sun goes black And you only live forever in the lights you make When we were young we used to say That you only hear the music when your heart begins to break Now we are the kids from yesterday All the cameras watch the accidents and stars you hate They only care if you can bleed Does the television make you feel the pills you ate? Or every person that you need to be [ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/m/..._yesterday.html ] Cause you only live forever in the lights you make When we were young we used to say That you only hear the music when your heart begins to break Now we are the kids from yesterday Today, today We are the kids from yesterday Today, today Here we are and we won't stop breathing Yell it out 'til your heart stops beating We are the kids from yesterday Today Cause you only live forever in the lights you make When we were young we used to say That you only hear the music when your heart begins to break Now we are the kids from yesterday We are the kids from yesterday We are the kids from yesterday We are the kids from yesterday Today, today Second one: (don't tease me for this one please!) Kids Of The Future by Jonas Brothers (This is my favourite part, NOT the whole song.) Bright lights Boy, look around you Your imagination is working overtime The world that you've dreamed of has now arrived Hot shots The greatest adventure is where The family you've searched for comes alive |
