(Sad Song) :sad:
Coldplay- The Scientist

Come up to meet you, tell you I’m sorry
You don’t know how lovely you are

I had to find you
Tell you I need you
Tell you I set you apart

Tell me your secrets
And ask me your questions
Oh let’s go back to the start

Running in circles
Coming up tails
Heads on a silence apart

Nobody said it was easy
It’s such a shame for us to part
Nobody said it was easy
No one ever said it would be this hard

Oh take me back to the start

I was just guessing
At numbers and figures
Pulling your puzzles apart

Questions of science
Science and progress
Do not speak as loud as my heart

Tell me you love me
Come back and haunt me
Oh and I rush to the start

Running in circles
Chasing our tails
Coming back as we are

Nobody said it was easy
Oh it’s such a shame for us to part
Nobody said it was easy
No one ever said it would be so hard

I’m going back to the start

(Depressed-Dude-Sings-Rock-Song) :cool:
Hmm… these lyrics I found are incomplete. Oh well. Great song.

Reel Big Fish- Brand New Hero

I’ve got big dreams, but no self esteem, you know.
I’d reach for the stars but I can’t find my arms.
All this time we’ve accomplished so much
Why can’t I believe why can’t I just feel love?
Ohh

Goin’ away leavin’ today you’ve gotta find a brand new hero
Goin’ away leavin’ today you’ve gotta find a brand new hero

I let you down when you’re not around you know.
I can’t be trusted with anything.
All this time we’ve wanted so much
To just belong why can’t we just feel love?
Ohh

Goin’ away leavin today you’ve gotta find a brand new hero
What will they say when I’ve gone away? Gotta find a brand new hero

(Suicide-Induction Sad Song) :cry:

Juliana Theory- Into the Dark

Dad, your boy is about to fall
He walks the razor’s edge
He’s on the brink of fading out
He’s at his bitter end
Dad, your boy who used to run, you taught him how to crawl
He left home to find his own, now all he had is gone

In your eyes I see a darkness that torments you and in your head where it dwells
I’d give you my hand if you’d reach out and grab it
Let’s walk away from this hell

Mom, your baby is on his way
He’ll soon be at your side
Cause he’s forgotten all he’s known
A part of him has died
Mom may never understand why baby’s come and gone
He left home to find his own, now all he has are lies.

In your eyes I see a darkness that torments you and in your head where it dwells
I’d give you my hand if you’d reach out and grab it
Let’s walk away from this hell

I also like Wind’s Nocturne, but that’s RF’s song. She gets to post it.

Metallica-Sanitarium

Welcome to where time stands still
No one leaves and no one will
Moon is full, never seems to change
Just labeled mentally deranged
Dream the same thing every night
I see our freedom in my sight
No locked doors, no windows barred
No things to make my brain seem scarred

Sleep my friend and you will see
That dream is my reality
They keep me locked up in this cage
Can’t they see it’s why my brain says rage

Sanitarium, leave me be
Sanitarium, just leave me alone

Build my fear of what’s out there
And cannot breathe the open air
Whisper things into my brain
Assuring me that I’m insane
They think our heads are in their hands
But violent use brings violent plans
Keep him tied, it makes him well
He’s getting better, can’t you tell?

No more can they keep us in
Listen, damn it, we will win
They see it right, they see it well
But they think this saves us from our hell

Sanitarium, leave me be
Sanitarium, just leave me alone
Sanitarium, just leave me alone

Fear of living on
Natives getting restless now
Mutiny in the air
Got some death to do
Mirror stares back hard
Kill, it’s such a friendly word
Seems the only way
For reaching out again.

Cool dream Mr.Roboto…err, I mean cool song!! :content:

This is fun; here are two more happier ones.

Blanket On The Ground

Come and look out through the window
That big old moon is shinin’ -down.
Tell me now don’t it remind you
On a blanket on the ground.
Remember back when love first found us

We’d go slippin’ out of town.
And we’d love beneath the moonlight
On a blanket on the ground.

I’ll get the blanket from the bedroom
And we’ll go walking once again
To that spot down by the river
Where our sweet love first began
Just because we are married
Don’t mean can’t slip around
So let’s walk out through the moonlight
And lay the blanket on the ground.

Oh remember how excited
We used to get when love was young
That old moon was our best buddy

We could’nt wait for night to come
Now you know you still excited me

I know you love me like I am
Just once more I wish you’ll love me
On a blanket on the ground.
I’ll get the blanket from the bedroom
. . .

Concrete And Clay

You to me
Are sweet as roses in the morning
And you to me
Are soft as summer rain at dawn, in love we share
That something rare

The sidewalks in the street
The concrete and the clay beneath my feet
Begins to crumble
But love will never die
Because we’ll see the mountains tumble
Before we say goodbye

My love and I will be
In love eternally
That’s the way
Mmm, that’s the way it’s meant to be

All around
I see the purple shades of evening
And on the ground
The shadows fall and once again you’re in my arms
So tenderly

The sidewalks in the street
The concrete and the clay beneath my feet
Begins to crumble
But love will never die
Because we’ll see the mountains tumble
Before we say goodbye

My love and I will be
In love eternally
That’s the way
Mmm, that’s the way it’s meant to be

The sidewalks in the street
The concrete and the clay beneath my feet
Begins to crumble
But love will never die
Because we’ll see the mountains tumble
Before we say goodbye

My love and I will be
In love eternally
That’s the way
Mmm, that’s the way it’s meant to be

And that’s the way
That’s the way it’s meant to be

That’s the way
(that’s the way it’s meant to be)
Whoa, that’s the way
That’s the way it’s meant to be [fade]

Intolerance

I don’t want to be hostile.
I don’t want to be dismal.
But I don’t want to rot in an apathetic existance either.
See
I want to believe you,
and I want to trust
and I want to have faith to put away the dagger.

But you lie, cheat, and steal.
And yet
I tolerate you.
Veil of virtue hung to hide your method
while I smile and laugh and dance
and sing your praise and glory.
Shroud of virtue hung to mask your stigma
as I smile and laugh and dance
and sing your glory
while you
lie, cheat, and steal.
How can I tolerate you.

Our guilt,our blame ,
I’ve been far too sympathetic.
Our blood, our fault.
I’ve been far too sympathetic.

I am not innocent.
You are not innocent.
Noone is innocent.

I will no longer tolerate you
Even if I must go down beside you.
Because,
Noone is innocent.

I’ll Be Missing You
[Intro: Puff Daddy] :angel:

Yeah… this right here (tell me why)
Goes out, to everyone, that has lost someone
That they truly loved (c’mon, check it out)

[Verse One: Puff Daddy]

Seems like yesterday we used to rock the show
I laced the track, you locked the flow
So far from hangin on the block for dough
Notorious, they got to know that
Life ain’t always what it seem to be (uh-uh)
Words can’t express what you mean to me
Even though you’re gone, we still a team
Through your family, I’ll fulfill your dream (that’s right)
In the future, can’t wait to see
If you’ll open up the gates for me
Reminisce some time, the night they took my friend (uh-huh)
Try to black it out, but it plays again
When it’s real, feelings hard to conceal
Can’t imagine all the pain I feel
Give anything to hear half your breath (half your breath)
I know you still living your life, after death

[Chorus: Faith Evans]

Every step I take, every move I make
Every single day, every time I pray
I’ll be missing you
Thinkin of the day, when you went away
What a life to take, what a bond to break
I’ll be missing you

[Puff] I miss you Big

[Verse Two: Puff Daddy]

It’s kinda hard with you not around (yeah)
Know you in heaven smilin down (eheh)
Watchin us while we pray for you
Every day we pray for you
Til the day we meet again
In my heart is where I’ll keep you friend
Memories give me the strength I need (uh-huh) to proceed
Strength I need to believe
My thoughts Big I just can’t define (can’t define)
Wish I could turn back the hands of time
Us in the six, shop for new clothes and kicks
You and me taking flicks
Makin hits, stages they receive you on
Still can’t believe you’re gone (can’t believe you’re gone)
Give anything to hear half your breath (half your breath)
I know you still living you’re life, after death

[Chorus]

[Faith Evans] Somebody tell me why

[Interlude: Faith Evans]

One glad morning
When this life is over
I know
I’ll see your face

[Outro: 112]

Every night I pray, every step I take
Every move I make, every single day
Every night I pray, every step I take
[Puff] Every day that passes
Every move I make, every single day
[Puff] Is a day that I get closer
[Puff] To seeing you again
Every night I pray, every step I take
[Puff] We miss you Big… and we won’t stop
Every move I make, every single day
[Puff] Cause we can’t stop… that’s right
Every night I pray, every step I take
Every move I make, every single day
[Puff] We miss you Big

[Chorus 2X with variations]
[Chorus 1X with interlude 2X over :angel:

I prefer this version to the original Police lyrics

38

Here goes…

Row, row, row your boat
Gently down the stream,
Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily,
Life is but a dream.
:smile:

39

Who sings that? I sing that at work almost all the time :confused:

40

Sorry to tread on people’s feet here, has anyone actually gone through and read those four pages of lyrics? I think the gist of it was just to get across taste in music, wouldn’t it have been easier to say groups/artists/tracks as opposed to posting enitre track lyrics…?
just a thought

41

Hello Crazy, I have read all the other lyrics. If you would prefer a more to the point preference of musical taste you could always start a different thread. :wiske: The original poster intended the full lyrics to be supplied.

42

Fair enough, just reading music-less lyrics didn’t really appeal whereas finding out people’s tastes in music appealed and interested me. but each to their own eh

43

I actually like reading the lyrics, you get to picture the sound :music: while reading, but im a wannabe Poet, so. . . thats my reason :content:

44

I get to hear lots more song suggestions for a collection. It’s too bad you guys like “wierd” music. Well, everyone else in my school likes System of a Down and Led Zeppelin… ah well. Game music for me.

-Metal Gear Solid 2 Main Theme (lyrics)
“…♪…”
-Final Fantasy 8- Ragnarok (lyrics)
“…♪…”

Yes, those are the lyrics to the songs I listen to.
If I ever listen to songs, they have to have good lyrics that actually mean something.

45

I love the “Eyes on Me” from Final Fantasy VIII . But shouldn’t this be on a game thread?

46

Lol, :lmao: Is System of A Down consider real music?? They remind me of Primus on crack :tongue:

LOLA by Ray Davis (The Kinks)

I met her in a club down in old Soho
Where you drink champagne and it tastes just like cherry-cola
See-oh-el-aye cola
She walked up to me and she asked me to dance
I asked her her name and in a dark brown voice she said Lola
El-oh-el-aye Lola la-la-la-la Lola

Well I’m not the world’s most physical guy
But when she squeezed me tight she nearly broke my spine
Oh my Lola la-la-la-la Lola
Well I’m not dumb but I can’t understand
Why she walked like a woman and talked like a man
Oh my Lola la-la-la-la Lola la-la-la-la Lola

Well we drank champagne and danced all night
Under electric candlelight
She picked me up and sat me on her knee
And said dear boy won’t you come home with me
Well I’m not the world’s most passionate guy
But when I looked in her eyes well I almost fell for my Lola
La-la-la-la Lola la-la-la-la Lola
Lola la-la-la-la Lola la-la-la-la Lola
I pushed her away
I walked to the door
I fell to the floor
I got down on my knees
Then I looked at her and she at me

Well that’s the way that I want it to stay
And I always want it to be that way for my Lola
La-la-la-la Lola
Girls will be boys and boys will be girls
It’s a mixed up muddled up shook up world except for Lola
La-la-la-la Lola

Well I left home just a week before
And I’d never ever kissed a woman before
But Lola smiled and took me by the hand
And said dear boy I’m gonna make you a man

Well I’m not the world’s most masculine man
But I know what I am and I’m glad I’m a man
And so is Lola
La-la-la-la Lola la-la-la-la Lola
Lola la-la-la-la Lola la-la-la-la Lola :blush: :wiske: = :ack: :wink:

This song sums up for me everything about reality checks. Remembering you are dreaming, etc…

The Bangles - Let it go

One thing or another
Your head is filled with questions
sights and sounds
Distractions always gets you down
Turn around
Trying to remember
Where you were the day before
North and south and east and west
Where to go

When it’s over, when it’s done
Let it go

Frightened by the numbers
All the possibilities
Changing minds you hope to find
one more dream to remind you
What is lost can always be regained

When it’s over, when it’s done
Let it go

49

Wow, this thing is still alive :eek:

I gotta go find some songs to post.

:happy: Make Me Smile (Come Up And See Me) (Steve Harley)

you’ve done it all, you’ve broken every code
and pulled the rebel to the floor
you spoilt the game, no matter what you say
for only metal - what a bore!

blue eyes, blue eyes
how come you tell so many lies?

come up and see me, make me smile
or do what you want, running wild

there’s nothing left, all gone and run away
maybe you’ll tarry for a while
it’s just a test, a game for us to play
win or lose, it’s hard to smile

resist, resist
it’s from yourself you have to hide

come up and see me, make me smile
or do what you want, running wild

there ain’t no more, you’ve taken everything
from my belief in Mother Earth
can you ignore my faith in everything
'cause i know what faith is and what it’s worth

away, away
and don’t say maybe you’ll try

to come up and see me, make me smile
or do what you want, running wild [repeat til fade]

You’ve Got A Friend

When your down and troubled
And you need some love and care
And nothing, nothing is going right
Close your eyes and think of me
And soon I will be there
To brighten up
Even your darkest night

You just call out my name
And you know wherever I am
I’ll come runnin’
To see you again
Winter, spring, summer or fall
All you have to do is call
And I’ll be there
You’ve got a friend

If the sky above you
Grows dark and full of clouds
And that old north wind begins to blow
Keep your head together baby
And call my name out loud
Soon you’ll hear me
Knockin’ at your door

You just call out my name
And you know wherever I am
I’ll come runnin’
To see you again
Winter, spring, summer or fall
All you have to do is call
And I’ll be there

Ain’t it good to know that
You’ve got a friend?
People can be so cold oh yeah
They’ll hurt you and desert you
And take your soul if you let them
But don’t you let them

You just call out my name
And you know wherever I am
I’ll come runnin’
To see you again
Winter, spring, summer or fall
All you have to do is call
And I’ll be there
You’ve got a friend

You’ve got a friend
You’ve got a friend

:wiske: :smile:

This is a cool thread :cool:
The crystal ship by The Doors

Before you slip into unconsciousness
I’d like to have another kiss
Another flashing chance at bliss
Another kiss, another kiss
The days are bright and filled with pain
Enclose me in your gentle rain
The time you ran was too insane
We’ll meet again, we’ll meet again
Oh tell me where your freedom lies
The streets are fields that never die
Deliver me from reasons why
You’d rather cry, I’d rather fly
The crystal ship is being filled
A thousand girls, a thousand thrills
A million ways to spend your time
When we get back, I’ll drop a line

Rise by Pantera
We’ve got no time to lose
Your news is old news
Hate this, hate me, hate this
Right approach for the wrong
It’s time to spread the word
Let the voice be heard
All of us, one of us, all of us
Dominate and take the motherf*%#ing world

Mass prediction, unification
Breathing life into out lungs
EVERY creed and EVERY kind
To give us depth for strength

Taught when we’re young to hate one another
It’s time to have a new reign of power
Make pride universal so no one gives in
Turn our backs on those who oppose
Then when confronted we ask them the question
That’s wrong with their mind?
What’s wrong with your mind?

(Chorus) It’s time to RISE

We’ve lived with past mistakes
And we’ve lived with our own
Forgive, forget forgive
Be a man, not a child
There are to tears for peace
Of the common sympathies
Educate, reinstate, educate
A thing of past
The trouble in the states

It’s time to rise

I love how, i can jump from classic Rock ,to Hard Metal, what a transition :content:
