RE: Favorite Song Lyrics
I'll have you know, children, that I am one of the legitimate heirs to the Throne of King Edward the Troll.
 You DON'T know who King Edward the Troll was? Well then.....*takes on history professor persona*  Here Endeth The Lesson Seriously, though, nothing like a shot of Edward Khil to snap you out of a Heavy Metal funk

RE: Favorite Song Lyrics
The warming sun, the cooling rain,
The snowflake drifting on the breath of the breeze, The lightning bolt that frees the sky for you Yet only eagles seem to pass on through. The words of love, the cries of hate, And the man in the moon who seduced you Then finally loosed you. You climbed upon a burning rope to escape the mob below, But you, had put the flaming out so that others could now follow. To be out of the bounds and the barks of those who do not wish you well You must blaze a trail of your own, unknown, alone, But keep in mind Don't live today for tomorrow like you were immortal. The only survivors on this world of ours are... The warming sun, the cooling rain, The snowflake drifting on the breath of the breeze, The lightning bolt that frees the sky for you Yet only eagles seem to pass on through. The words of love, the cries of hate, And the man in the moon who seduced you Then finally loosed you. You're old and disillusioned now as you realise at last, That all, you have accomplished here will have soon all have turned to dust. You dream of a future afterlife, well that's as maybe, I don't know. But you can't take what you left behind, you're all alone. So keep in mind Don't live today for tomorrow like you were immortal. The only survivors on this world of ours are... The warming sun, the cooling rain, The snowflake drifting on the breath of the breeze, The lightning bolt that frees the sky for you Yet only eagles seem to pass on through. The words of love, the cries of hate, And the man in the moon... |

RE: Favorite Song Lyrics
They're somewhat morbid, but these songs actually helped me through some really bad times in my life. The art became a channel for the release which I so desperately sought.
Dark Funeral: "My Funeral" "At the end of this long and lonely path, All misery will be gone" Down this long and twining road I walk with heavy feet My head sunk down below I have made up my mind It's time to end this life Then peace I will find Walking down to my funeral The mortal sin Some might be sad I'll die with a grin Walking down to my funeral It's time to die When I leave this pathetic world I will hold my head high Angels are watching from above As so does the evil ones That lurks down below... I am almost there - at my funeral I reach the end of the twining road I put a bullet in my gun, don't need to reload Feel the cold steel to my head It's time to pull the trigger Soon I'll be dead Now when I'm at my funeral I'll feel so free Some might be sad I'll die with a grin Now I'm at my funeral I feel so free The mortal sin... Sin... Angels and demons Reach out for me Kingdom's wide open, But I walk away from - thee As I walk away... "For eternal in twilight I dwell" Walking down to my funeral The mortal sin... Some might be sad I'll die with a grin Walking down to my funeral It's time to die When I leave this pathetic world I will hold my head high Hold my head high Cradle Of Filth: "Suicide and Other Comforts" I pace, alone In a place for the dead Overcome by woe And here, I've grown So fond of dread That I swear it's heaven Oh sweet Mary, Dressed in grief Roll back the stone With these words scrawled in a severed hand Tears fall like shards of glass that band In rivers, like sinners Swept with me to join the damned A darkened sky The day that laughter died Fell swiftly into night And stayed within Her sight Staring at the knife Oh God, how easy now the sacrifice My life, to have Her with me So farewell to distant thunder Those inept stars I've worshipped under Fall father, their Father Lies in wait in flames below Whilst my love, a blood red flower Calls to me from verdant bowers Graveside, I cry Please save me from this Hell I know A darkened sky The day that laughter died Fell swiftly into night And stayed within Her sight Staring at the knife Oh God, how easy now to sacrifice My life, to have Her with me An eye for an eye as espied in the bible My faith is lost to the burning of idols One less cross to press upon the survival Of this lorded agony And I, (much as I have tried To bury Her from mind, Fate's tourniquet was tied, when She died...) Still sense Her presence so divine Lithe arms about my throat Like pining swans entwined Footfalls at nightfall close to mine Suicide is a tried and tested formula for release I snatch Her whisper like the wind through cedars See Her face in every natural feature Midst the mist and sleepy hollows of fever... With glee deceiving me Suicide is a tried and tested formula for release I hear Her voice from where the grave defies Her Siren song to sing along, no finer Suicide notes, harmonised in A minor Strike a chord with misery No light nor reef No unsinkable of romance keeps me Safely from the stormy seas Now drowning, resounding Death-knells pound my dreams Unthinkable to dredge through this Listless and lonely winter frieze A darken sky This day hereafter dies Falls swiftly into night And stays within my sight Staring at the knife Oh God, how ease it was to sacrifice My life, to have Her with me No more a victim of a crusade Where souls are strung from a moral palisade I slit my wrists and quickly slip away... I journey now on jewelled sands Beneath a moon to Summerlands To grace Her lips with contraband The blaze once in my veins I remember listening to the second one during a dark, rainy night. I had driven my car deep into the countryside; past the rolling hills of another county and found myself somewhere near the riverside. It was a particularly bad night for me; much had happened in the preceeding weeks and I was at a breaking point. Sitting in my car on the roadside with rain blurring the windshield; I had the song turned up as loud as I could get it to block out the tumultuous thoughts which were raging through my mind. That was the last time I had a long, hard, explosive bout of sobbing. I was at the absolute end of my rope as a human being. Through profound pain comes profound knowledge. Ridi, Pagliaccio, sul tuo amore infranto! Ridi del duol, che t'avvelena il cor! |

RE: Favorite Song Lyrics
"Oh baby don't it feel like heaven right now;
Don't it feel like something from a dream? Yeah I've never known nothing quite like this Don't it feel like tonight might never be again We know better than to try and pretend Baby no one coulda ever told me 'bout this I said yeah yeah The waiting is the hardest part Every day you see one more card You take it on faith, you take it to the heart The waiting is the hardest part Well yeah, I might have chased a couple women around All it ever got me was down Then there were those that made me feel good But never as good as I'm feeling right now Baby you're the only one that's ever known how To make me wanna live like I wanna live now I said yeah yeah The waiting is the hardest part Every day you get one more yard You take it on faith, you take it to the heart The waiting is the hardest part Oh don't let it kill you baby, don't let it get to you Don't let it kill you baby, don't let it get to you I'll be your bleedin' heart, I'll be your cryin' fool Don't let this go too far Don't let it get to you." - The Waiting (Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers) "It was life, often unsatisfying, frequently cruel, usually boring, sometimes beautiful, once in awhile exhilarating." -Stephen King |

RE: Favorite Song Lyrics
Hook - John Popper
The most ironic hit song ever...nobody listens to the verse and when you do take the moment to listen you realize that Popper has been mocking you for years: It doesn't matter what I say So long as I sing with inflection That makes you feel that I'll convey Some inner truth of vast reflection But I've said nothing so far And I can keep it up for as long as it takes And it don't matter who you are If I'm doing my job then it's your resolve that breaks Because the hook brings you back I ain't tellin' you no lie The hook brings you back On that you can rely There is something amiss I am being insincere In fact I don't mean any of this Still my confession draws you near To confuse the issue I refer To familiar heroes from long ago No matter how much Peter loved her What made the Pan refuse to grow Was that the hook brings you back I ain't tellin' you no lie The hook brings you back On that you can rely Suck it in suck it in suck it in If you're Rin Tin Tin or Anne Boleyn Make a desperate move or else you'll win And then begin To see What you're doing to me this MTV is not for free It's so PC it's killing me So desperately I sing to thee Of love Sure but also rage and hate and pain and fear of self And I can't keep these feelings on the shelf I've tried well no in fact I lied Could be financial suicide but I've got too much pride inside To hide or slide I'll do as I'll decide and let it ride until I've died And only then shall I abide this tide Of catchy little tunes Of hip three minute ditties I wanna bust all your balloons I wanna burn all of your cities To the ground I've found I will not mess around Unless I play then hey I will go on all day hear what I say I have a prayer to pray That's really all this was And when I'm feeling stuck and need a buck I don't rely on luck because... The hook brings you back I ain't tellin' you no lie The hook... On that you can rely Woodstock - Joni Mitchell Epic songwriting I've highlighted my favorite lines I came upon a child of God He was walking along the road And I asked him, "Where are you going?" And this he told me... I'm going on down to Yasgur's Farm, I'm gonna join in a rock and roll band. I'm gonna camp out on the land. I'm gonna get my soul free. We are stardust. We are golden. And we've got to get ourselves back to the garden. Then can I walk beside you? I have come here to lose the smog, And I feel to be a cog in something turning. Well maybe it is just the time of year, Or maybe it's the time of man. I don't know who I am, But you know life is for learning. We are stardust. We are golden. And we've got to get ourselves back to the garden. By the time we got to Woodstock, We were half a million strong And Everywhere there was song and celebration. And I dreamed I saw the bombers Riding shotgun in the sky, And they were turning into butterflies Above our nation. We are stardust. Billion year old carbon. We are golden.. Caught in the devil's bargain And we've got to get ourselves back to the garden. Fight Test - The Flaming Lips I thought I was smart - I thought I was right I thought it better not to fight - I thought there was a Virtue in always being cool - so when it came time to Fight I thought I'll just step aside and that the time would Prove you wrong and that you would be the fool - I don't know where the sun beams end and the star Lights begins it's all a mystery Oh to fight is to defend if it's not Now than tell me when would be the time that you would stand up And be a man - for to lose I could accept but to surrender I just wept and regretted this moment - oh that I - I Was the fool I don't know where the sun beams end and the star Lights begins it's all a mystery And I don't know how a man decides what right for his Own life - it's all a mystery Cause I'm a man not a boy and there are things You can't avoid you have to face them when you're not prepared To face them - If I could I would but you're with him now it'd do no good I should have fought him but instead I let him - I let Him take you - I don't know where the sun beams end and the star Lights begins it's all a mystery And I don't know how a man decides what right for his Own life - it's all a mystery |

RE: Favorite Song Lyrics
All by La Dispute:
"Said The King To The River" "Up, M'Lady--Pack your things, this place is not your home. Nor was it ever, sever every tie, tonight we ride. Tonight we ride." "And how we've trembled at the way that time's assembled little fires of desire in the tundra of our skin. So, do yourself a little favor, savor every time you waver for that shaking in my voice was only slyly feigned chagrin. Tonight we ride." "Oh, Lover, uncover. I know it's warm beneath your sheets and there is ice along the streets but listen—Lover, we will recover. But we've no time to waste with meddling in affairs we've locked so tightly in our dreams. We are not clean, we are not pure, we can not rest until we're sure. So, rob your pretty little eyes of sleep's disguise. I'm at your bedside with a bucket full of lies. So, clear your ears and listen--- Up, M'Lady--Pack your things, this place is not your home. But I know what is." And to the glorious past: You've opened my window but broken the glass. And I beseech thee, 'shed thy beauty.' For as a child leaves the womb and learns the cold, you have taught us perils in the present, and you will bring us peril in our surely-soon-to-be. Unless… The river's not flooded this time. Oh, Precious Distance, Oh, Precious Pain, You've given me a name. And Etched it in the stones of the river bank. Oh, Precious Distance, Oh, Precious Pain, You've given us a name. You've Given us a name. "Rise!" Said the King to the River, "Never let up! No, bring us a flood and bring it hard!" "Freeze!" Said the Wind to the Water, "Never give in! No, build us a bridge! And build it strong and angry. Let it stills the King's decree. Oh, you must contemplate the current, Boy, and command that coward cease. The boy breathes for his love says, 'I wait.' His love says, 'I wait.' She's shouting out, "I will come back. Yes, I will come back! I will come—I have lived my life so uncomfortably. Darling, come for me. Come for me." "Rise!" Said the Boy to his Lover, "Darling, get up. I've brought you my love, and brought it far!" "Leave!" Said the Girl to her lover, "I've given in. If love is a bridge, we built it wrong!" Curb your anger. Still your fists. She will never come back, she'll never come back, she'll never come— She will never come back, she'll never come back, she'll never come— "Andria" You still cross my mind from time to time. And I mostly smile. Still so set on finding out where we went wrong and why So I retrace our every step with an unsure pen, trying to figure out what my head thinks, but my head just ain't what it used to be. And then again, what's the point anyway? I remember you ascending all the stairs up to the balcony to see if you could see me - hidden quietly away And I remember the skin of your fingers, The spot three quarters up I'd always touch when I was out of things to say. You held my hand, but you were too afraid to speak and I could never understand. I remember when you leaned in quick to kiss me, and I swear, that not a single force on earth could stop the trembling of my hand, And I remember how you smiled through the smoke in a crowded little coffeehouse and laughed at all my jokes. And I remember the way that you dressed and, how we wasted all the best of us in alcohol and sweat And I remember when I knew that you'd be leaving, how I barely kept up breathing and I bet if I had to do it all again, I'd feel the same pain, And I remember panicked circles in the terminal in tears. How I wept to god in fits. I've hated airports ever since. It must be true what people say, that only time can heal the pain. And every single day I feel it fade away, but - I still remember how the distance tricked us, and lead us helpless by the wrist into a pit to be devoured. I still remember how we held so strong to this, though we had never really settled on a way out. I still remember the silence, and how we'd always find a way to turn and run to our mistakes. I still remember how it all came back together just to fall apart again. My dear, I hear your voice in mine. I've been alone here, I've been afraid, my dear. I've been at home here. You've been away for years. I've been alone. I breathed your name into the air; I etched your name into me. I felt my anger swelling; I swam into its sea. I held your name inside my heart, but it got buried in my fear. It tore the wiring of my brain; I did my best to keep it clear. So, dear, no matter how we part, I hold you sweetly in my head. And if I do not miss a part of you, a part of me is dead. If I can't love you as a lover, I will love you as a friend. And I will lay a bed before you; keep you safe until the end. "Such Small Hands" I think I saw you in my sleep, darling, I think I saw you in my dreams you were Stitching up the seams on every broken promise That your body couldn't keep. I think I saw you in my sleep. I thought I heard the door open, oh no, I thought I heard the door open but I only heard it close. I thought I heard a plane crashing, but Now I think it was your passion snapping. I think you saw me confronting my fear, it Went up with a bottle and went down with the beer and I think you ought to stay away from here There are ghosts in the walls and they Crawl in your head through your ear. I think I saw you in my sleep, lover, I think I saw you in my dreams you were Stitching up the seams on every mangled promise That your body couldn't keep. I think I saw you in my sleep. |
