song lyrics

i find song lyrics and poetry very emotive and helpful, and i've been writing a book with quotes etc and wonderered what lyrics other people have been touched by, here's a few of mine (my minds gone blank though)...........

'i have enough guilt i could start my own religion'

'i've been looking for a saviour beneth these dirty sheets'

you're just an empty cage if you kill the bird'

'i can scream as loud as your last one, but i cant claim innocence'

'i want to live in the pretty sun but the daylight just makes me numb.

a little less than a happy high, a little less than a suicide the only things that you've really tried'

i might add a few later

I love this whole song and these parts of another music moves me and songs with good words are the best, Woody Guthrie rules btw


Some Days I See The Point

<<< Never saw a meaningful tv advert, I don’t think shopping is a metaphor for life
Don’t waste my time at the gym in the morning, try to keep trim by living my life

Wanna feel the wind blowing in my hair,
Wanna hear the waves crashing on the beach
I’m not seeking easy answers or inner peace
I’m just looking for some release

I want to help to make the world better but I can’t do it all on my own
Try to keep the lid on my disappointment ‘cos cynicism’s such a cop out I know

Watch the shadows of clouds moving on the hill
Open my eyes and drink my fill
On those days that I feel dejected
I come up here for a bit of perspective

Gonna follow the path that climbs up through the trees
Walk along the cliff top and gaze out to sea
I feel free when I come up here
And if it's clear some days I see the point

Baz Luhrmann


Enjoy the power and beauty of your youth. Never mind. You will not understand the power and beauty of your youth until they have faded. But trust me, in 20 years you’ll look back at photos of yourself and recall in a way you can’t grasp now how much possibility lay before you and how fabulous you really looked.

You are NOT as fat as you imagine.


Don’t be reckless with other people’s hearts, don’t put up with people who are reckless with yours.


Don’t worry about the future; or worry, but know that worrying is as effective as trying to solve an algebra equation by chewing bubblegum. The real troubles in your life are apt to be things that never crossed your worried mind; the kind that blindside you at 4pm on some idle Tuesday.

Do one thing every day that scares you.


Don’t waste your time on jealousy; sometimes you’re ahead, sometimes you’re behind. The race is long, and in the end, it’s only with yourself.

Remember compliments you receive, forget the insults; if you succeed in doing this, tell me how.

Be kind to your knees, you’ll miss them when they’re gone.

Maybe you’ll marry, maybe you won’t, maybe you’ll have children, maybe you won’t, maybe you’ll divorce at 40, maybe you’ll dance the funky chicken on your 75th wedding anniversary. Whatever you do, don’t congratulate yourself too much or berate yourself, either. Your choices are half chance, so are everybody else’s. Enjoy your body, use it every way you can. Don’t be afraid of it, or what other people think of it, it’s the greatest instrument you’ll ever own.

Dance. Even if you have nowhere to do it but in your own living room.

Do NOT read beauty magazines, they will only make you feel ugly.

Get to know your parents, you never know when they’ll be gone for good.

Understand that friends come and go, but for the precious few you should hold on. Work hard to bridge the gaps in geography in lifestyle because the older you get, the more you need the people you knew when you were young.

Respect your elders.

"Runaway Train__never coming back, take away pain on a one way track....like madman laughing at the rain.."

"Why won't you die...your blood and mine!"

"Never do I wan't to be here again and I can't remember why I came, freezing feeling......I'm not the whose so far away when I feel the snake bite enter my veins."

"...and why do we dreams when our thoughts mean nothing?"

" Vom Feur das die Haut verbrent."

"This is not a love song__this is NOT a love song"

"...that everything about me is a lie"
"_cause evryday we're getting older and everyday we all get colder"

"was I too blind to see what was right there infront of me?!"

"I can see through you...I see your true colors, and inside you're ugly, ugly like me."

"Take a ride on a suicide romance...."

"...its like my insides are on fire, and I'm looking through the eyes of someone else_."

"~the sound of you falling~"
"Rectifier how's the world suppose to be, Rectifier take my hand and rescue me!"

"my heart is under arrest again but I pull through, My head is giving me life or death but I can choose...to strong to loose."

"Hello...I am your mind speaking to you_so you will have someone to to."

" Don't you see I cannot be forsakened...for I'm not thee only one, we walk around you_feeding...raping. Why must we hide from everyone?"

"__you've becomed my reason to survive...the great divide."

"...and I'm sitting in a room with a needle in my hand...waiting for the ight tune, of some old dying man."

"Go home, get stoned,.....cause the sex is so much better when you're mad at me."

"much like SUFFOCATION_"

"...you were counting__on a freefall."

"and I will remember before I forget!"

"It's like a whirlwind inside of my head."

"~duality is coming~"

"You've got the face but I can't place it, you've got the name but I don't remember, you've got the life but I don't care."

"...and there's oceans in between us__but thats not very far....."

"You claim yourself to the victory, but it is I who will rest in peace."

"Can you find it in your heart to make this go away and let me rest in pieces."

"..and don't try to fix me...I'm not broken."

No one does despair like Sting...

I have stood here before inside the pouring rain
With the world turning circles running 'round my brain
I guess I'm always hoping that you'll end this reign
But it's my destiny to be the king of pain

There's a king on a throne with his eyes torn out
There's a blind man looking for a shadow of doubt
There's a rich man sleeping on a golden bed
There's a skeleton choking on a crust of bread

Just a castaway, an island lost at sea, oh
Another lonely day, with no one here but me, oh
More loneliness than any man could bear
Rescue me before I fall into despair, oh
I'll send an S.O.S. to the world...

A year has passed since I wrote my note
But I should have known this right from the start
Only hope can keep me together
Love can mend your life but
Love can break your heart
I'll send an S.O.S. to the world...

Walked out this morning, don't believe what I saw
Hundred billion bottles washed up on the shore
Seems I'm not alone at being alone
Hundred billion castaways, looking for a home

I'll send an S.O.S. to the world
I'll send an S.O.S. to the world
I hope that someone gets my
I hope that someone gets my
I hope that someone gets my
Message in a bottle, yeah
Message in a bottle, yeah
Message in a bottle, yeah
Message in a bottle, yeah
Sending out at an S.O.S.
Sending out at an S.O.S.
Sending out at an S.O.S.
Sending out at an S.O.S.
Sending out at an S.O.S.
Sending out at an S.O.S...

Disturbed

Prayer
Another dream that will never come true
Just to compliment your sorrow
Another life I will take it from you
A gift to add to your pain and suffering
Another truth you can never believe
Has crippled you completely
All the cries your beginning to hear
Trapped in your mind and the sound is deafening.
Let me enlighten you.
This is the way I pray.
Living just isnt hard enough
Burn you alive inside
Living lifes not hard enough
Take everything away.
Another nightmare is about to come true
It will manifest tommorow
Another love is what I will take from you
Lost in time on the edge of suffering
Another taste of the evil I breed
Will level you compleately
Bring to life everything that you fear
Live in the dark and the world is threatening
Let me enlighten you
This is the way I pray.

hey! I love that song ___and you know whats true sinquinicity how I was just about to post it here too

Nietz,
I read the lyrics to your songs and I knew them all from Godsmack to Puddle of Mud. Then I looked at the CD collection and saw Disturbed and wrote the lyrics to Prayer, my husband and sons anthem. Let me guess you have antisocial personality disorder right? I'm not at all suprised I typed the song as you were thinking of it. After living with it for a while a sort of sixth sense develops. Psychiatrist might say it's magical thinking. I say it keeps me on top of things happening in my house.

wow '

oh! about my personality disorders I am all of the following: Narcissistic, Schizotypal, Schizoid, and ANTISOCIAL <so yeah you were right

That explains it then When they are all around ya there is a radar. It also explains my protective feeling of you. I tell my husband and kid think of your antisocial as a timebomb. The goal is to diffuse it and remain out of prison. Bands like Disturbed feed the hate in antisocial so tread with care. Whatever the aspd tells you to do, do the opposite. Much love to ya from your online mama.

this is an all out original by me... its not done yet, but i hope yall like it...
"Forever Nevermore" <---quote from TheRaven
Nothing left of me to break
everything's already been broken
nothing left of me to take
curses already spoken
no moon left to shine
all light has been shown
no more tears left to cri
feeling so alone
no more chains left to abuse
no more blood to shed
no more f****** that can use
my soul has already bled
no more love for me to show
no more heart to give
no more eyes left to glow
no more reason to live...
