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.

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

[Teto 2609]

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.

[Ammonsa 308]

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....

[Teto 2609]

"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

"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.

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

"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. :')

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...

[Ammonsa 308]

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.

Pink Floyd - Comfortably Numb

[Roc 8]

Definitely one of my favorites. I cried when I sang along with it.

Born To Touch You Feelings - Scorpions

Music - Rudolf Schenker

Lyrics - Klaus Meine

I was born from the sound of the strings

for someone to give everything

to be a song just for your feeling

close your eyes and I´ll try to get in

to waken your heart like the spring

´cos I was born to touch your feelings

Steal the time, take a song and be glad

be free as the birds, don´t be sad

your time will come. I´ll make you feel it

you´re still young like the sun after rain

follow the light, it´s not in vain

and you will see I´ll touch your feelings.

You´ve got your songs, they are everyday

for a while, just the only way

to feel allright...

You were born just to lose or to win

to be someone´s child in the wind

to live between your mind and feelings

find your way, check it out, learn each day

follow the light , it´s not in vain

and you will see I´ll touch your feelings.

You´ve got your songs, they are everyday

for a while. just the only way

to feel allright ...

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

"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
