Posted 17 Sep 2009 To songs you like / that you can relate to. "Map Of Your Head" ~ Muse I'm sick of feeding my soul to people who'll never know just how purposeless and empty they've grown. Because their language confuses like computers refuse to understand how I'm feeling today. I'm freezing. And losing my way. I don't need another map of your head. I am freezing. And losing my way. I don't need another map of your head. I saw a liquid control. That gives life to us all. I hit my head on it and woke up to know. That I was all alone. Wearing just socks and a phone. Someone screaming like their world might explode. Yeah. I'm freezing. And losing my way. I don't need another map of your head. I'm freezing and losing my way. I don't want another map of your head. Freeeeezing. And losing my way. I don't want another map of your head. I'm freeeeezing. And losing my way. I don't need another map of your head. Yeah... Post more lyrics or die in holy fire.

Posted 17 Sep 2009 Johnny Cash - Hurt I hurt myself today To see if I still feel I focus on the pain The only thing that's real The needle tears a hole The old familiar sting Try to kill it all away But I remember everything What have I become My sweetest friend Everyone I know goes away In the end And you could have it all My empire of dirt I will let you down I will make you hurt I wear this crown of thorns Upon my liar's chair Full of broken thoughts I cannot repair Beneath the stains of time The feelings disappear You are someone else I am still right here What have I become My sweetest friend Everyone I know goes away In the end And you could have it all My empire of dirt I will let you down I will make you hurt If I could start again A million miles away I would keep myself I would find a way Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 17 Sep 2009 aaaaaa I love that song. Such a sad one, though. The music video is really good and it explains his life so well from what I can tell. Kinda, anyway. I still need to watch the movie based on his life. It's good apparently. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 17 Sep 2009 Yeah, me and my dad are big fans of him. It is a very sad song, especially the "you could have it all, my empire of dirt." That breaks my heart. Hunters and Collectors - Throw your arms around me. I prefer the DAAS version though. I will come for you at nighttime I will raise you from your sleep I will kiss you in four places As I go running along your street I will squeeze the life out of you You will make me laugh and make me cry And we will never forget it You will make me call your name And I'll shout it to the blue summer sky And we may never meet again So she'd your skin and let's get started And you will throw your arms around me Yeah, you will throw your arms around me I dreamed of you at nighttime And I watched you in your sleep I met you in high places I touched your head and touched your feet So if you disappear out of view You know I will never say goodbye And though I try to forget it You will make me call your name And I'll shout it to the blue summer sky... And we may never meet again... So she'd your skin and let's get started And you will throw your arms around me Yeah, you will throw your arms around me Oh...yeah... Ohhh yeah... You will throw your arms around me... Yeah, you will throw your arms around me.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 17 Sep 2009 (edited) "Uprising" ~ Muse The paranoia is in bloom, the PR Transmissions will resume, they'll try to Push drugs to keep us all dumbed down and hope that We will never see the truth around Another promise, another scene, another Packaged lie to keep us trapped in greed, with all the Green belts wrapped around our minds and endless Red tape to keep the truth confined They will not force us They will stop degrading us They will not control us We will be victorious Interchanging mind control, come let the Revolution take it's toll, if you could Flick the switch and open your third eye, you'd see that We should never be afraid to die Rise up and take the power back, it's time that The fat cats had a heart attack, you know that Their time is coming to an end, We have to Unify and watch our flag ascend They will not force us They will stop degrading us They will not control us We will be victorious They will not force us They will stop degrading us They will not control us We will be victorious Edited 17 Sep 2009 by Teto (see edit history) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 18 Sep 2009 "Armchairs" - Andrew Bird I dreamed you were a cosmonaut of the space between our chairs And I was a cartographer of the tangles in your hair I sang the song that silence sings It's the one that everybody knows, everybody knows The song that silence sings And this is how it goes These looms that weave apocrypha they're hanging from a strand The dark and empty rooms were full of incandescent hands The awkward pause The fatal flaw Time, it's a crooked bow Time is a crooked bow In time you need to learn, to love The ebb just like the flow Grab hold of your bootstraps, and pull like hell until gravity feels sorry for you, and lets you go As if you lack the proper chemicals to know the way it felt the last time you let yourself fall this low Time's a crooked bow Time's a crooked bow Time, it's a crooked bow Fifty-five and three-eighths years later At the bottom of a gigantic crater An armchair calls to you Yeah, and armchair calls to you It says, someday, we'll get back at them all With epoxy and a pair of pliers As ancient sea slugs begin to crawl through the ragweed and barbed wire You didn't write You didn't call It didn't cross your mind at all Through the waves waves of hay and straw You couldn't feel a thing at all Fifty-five and three-eighths Time Fifty-five and three-eighths Time Time There's so much too this song, and it's exactly how I'm feeling right now. In short, it's about missed opportunities, wasted chances, mistakes (fatal flaws), and falling low. Time goes so fast, it's easy to let it slide on by until you look at it straight and realize how worn down it is, how much it's taken you through (time is like a violin bow, which becomes crooked with use). A beautiful song, too. So perfect, so real. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 18 Sep 2009 Fireflight - Unbreakable Where are the people that accuse me? The ones who beat me down and abuse me They hide, just out of sight Can’t face me in the light They’ll return, but I’ll be stronger God i want to dream again Take me where I’ve never been I want to go there This time I’m not scared Now I am unbreakable It’s unmistakable No one can touch me Nothing can stop me Sometimes it’s hard to just keep going But faith is moving without knowing Can I trust what I can’t see to reach my destiny? I want to take control, but I know better God i want to dream again Take me where I’ve never been I want to go there This time I’m not scared Now I am unbreakable It’s unmistakable No one can touch me Nothing can stop me Forget the fear, it’s just a crutch That tries to hold you back until your dreams are dust All you need to do is just try (Try, try, try) God i want to dream again Take me where I’ve never been I want to go there This time i’m not scared Now I am unbreakable It’s unmistakable No one can touch me Nothing can stop me God i want to dream again (I want to dream again!) Take me where I’ve never been I want to go there (I wanna go there) This time I’m not scared Now I am unbreakable (I am unbreakable!) It’s unmistakable No one can touch me (No one can touch me!) Nothing can stop me Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 18 Sep 2009 "Beauty Is Within Us" by Yoko Kanno (although it's sung by Scott Mathews) --- O mother dear Look what you've done To your forlorn and once beloved son Why was I born at all? O mother dear I'm such a freak A mutant man, a woman underneath Why was I born at all? It's you I blame for all the shame This anguish and this aching The mirror turned against the wall Myself despised, forsaken *You say, "Beauty is within us, your mother knows" "There's a beauty that's within us, just like a rose" You say, "beauty is within us, so let it grow" But it's grown so dark and ugly O mother dear I curse you so For breathing life into your wretched son Why were you born at all? O mother dear I love you so O please forgive this anger in my soul Without you I'm alone It's me who's been eternally damned Trapped inside this cage, a ruined man All damaged and depraved O mother dear This misery Has settled like a stain upon my skin - a vast unspoken sin And my mistake is much too late But your mistake was trusting That out of grief, a goodness comes And love comes out of lusting *You say, "Beauty is within us, your mother knows" "There's a beauty that's within us, just like a rose" You say, "beauty is within us, so let it grow" But it's grown so dark and ugly You say, "Beauty is within us, your mother knows" "There's a beauty that's within us, just like a rose" You say, "Beauty is within us, so let it grow" But it's grown so dark I can not see you anymore "O beauty is within us, mother knows" "O beauty is within us, like a rose" "O beauty is within us, let it grow" O mother dear, let me out of here! --- Ok, try to ignore the "man outside, woman underneath" thing. It's not the point of the song. Anyways, I think this song is very pretty and touching. :') Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 18 Sep 2009 Vindicated - Dashboard Confessional Hope dangles on a string Like slow spinning redemption Winding in, winding out The shine of it has caught my eye And roped me in So mesmerizing So hypnotizing I am captivated I am {Chorus} Vindicated I am selfish, I am wrong I am right, I swear I'm right Swear I knew it all along And I am Flawed But I am cleaning up so well I am seeing in me now The things you swore you saw yourself So clear Like the diamond in your ring Cut to mirror your intention Oversized to overwhelmed The shine of which has caught my eye And rendered me so Isolated so Motivated I am Certain now that I am {Chorus} Vindicated I am selfish, I am wrong I am right, I swear I'm right Swear I knew it all along And I am Flawed But I am cleaning up so well I am seeing in me now The things you swore you saw yourself So turn up the corners of your lips Part them and feel my finger tips Trace the moment for forever Defense is paper thin Just One touch and I'll be in Too Deep now to ever swim Against the current So let me slip away So let me slip away So let me slip away So let me slip against the current So let me slip away So let me slip away So let me slip away So let me slip away {Chorus} Vindicated I am selfish, I am wrong I am right, I swear I'm right Swear I knew it all along And I am Flawed But I am cleaning up so well I am seeing in me now The things you swore you saw yourself My hope dangles on a string Like slow spinning redemption...

Posted 18 Sep 2009 Hello? Is there anybody in there? Just nod if you can hear me. Is there anyone at home? Come on, now, I hear you're feeling down. Well I can ease your pain Get you on your feet again. Relax. I'll need some information first. Just the basic facts. Can you show me where it hurts? There is no pain you are receding A distant ship, smoke on the horizon. You are only coming through in waves. Your lips move but I can't hear what you're saying. When I was a child I had a fever My hands felt just like two balloons. Now I've got that feeling once again I can't explain you would not understand This is not how I am. I have become comfortably numb. O.K. Just a little pinprick. There'll be no more aaaaaaaaah! But you may feel a little sick. Can you stand up? I do believe it's working, good. That'll keep you going through the show Come on it's time to go. There is no pain you are receding A distant ship, smoke on the horizon. You are only coming through in waves. Your lips move but I can't hear what you're saying. When I was a child I caught a fleeting glimpse Out of the corner of my eye. I turned to look but it was gone I cannot put my finger on it now The child is grown, The dream is gone. I have become comfortably numb.

Posted 18 Sep 2009 Ryan Adams - Cobwebs Somewhere impossible light still shines And every smile is if as new Sometimes I feel like the static in the attic Is making me... Just confused If I fall will you catch me? If I'm sorry, sorry enough If I fall will you pity me? Will you confuse my love for the cobwebs? Confuse my love for the cobwebs? I always pause if I can on 5th avenue Look uptown with my head in the stars Somewhere the buildings give way to sunlight Give way to east and west Central Park If I fall will you catch me? If I'm sorry, sorry enough If I fall will you pity me? Will you confuse my love for the cobwebs? Will you confuse my love for the cobwebs? For the cobwebs? Will you confuse my love for the cobwebs? Confuse my love for the cobwebs? Confuse my love for the cobwebs? Confuse my love for the cobwebs? Confuse my love for the cobwebs? Confuse my love for the cobwebs? Confuse my love for the cobwebs? Confuse my love for the cobwebs? For the cobwebs? For the cobwebs? For the cobwebs? For the cobwebs? I feel like this a lot. P.S.: Ammonsa, 'Hurt' isn't a Johnny Cash song, but Nine Inch Nails. Though I like the Cash-version better Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted 18 Sep 2009 (edited) "Broken From the Start" by Jon Foreman (Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh) Life is a gift like fresh cut roses Cut from the branch and brought inside It's a slow contradiction, it's beauty in a vase When our cords are cut that's when we start to die (Oh) Lately death and life get so confusing I can't tell the difference here tonight Lately every breath feels like I'm kissing death And when time is dead I cease to be alive If you hide yourself deep inside Deep inside In time you've got nothing left to hide There's nothing left inside Tonight, honey I'm gonna break your heart Mine was broken from the start Broken from the start (Oh) Choice is the only thing we're given For one to live another dies One road says, "Hello" The other says, "Goodbye" And the rose that you don't choose begin to die (Oh, oh) If you hide yourself deep inside Deep inside In time you've got nothing left to hide It dries up inside Tonight, honey I'm gonna break your heart Mine was broken from the start Broken from the start Broken from the start Broken from the start They won't pay a cent to hear you laughing They might pay a little to hear you cry If you do it long enough They might even pay attention But they still won't pay respect until you die, die If you hide yourself deep inside Deep inside In time you've got nothing left to hide It's all dead inside Tonight, honey I'm gonna break your heart Mine was broken from the start Broken from the start Edited 18 Sep 2009 by Lionheart (see edit history) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
