Feel free to post the lyrics to whichever tune that takes your fancy  I'll start this off by posting the lyrics to the song I'm listening to at the mo: Lacuna Coil - UnspokenAnd it doesnt matter how you feel now, anything at all seems to be your only way, so vicious heavenly apart. When your envy is on a piece of paper let me sweetly smile You're devouring all the crumbs I'm leaving caught up in your lies. You're on any other side. Clawing up my eyes I'm feeling your arms around me on the other side. It's time to go I'm hearing your voice without words on the other side. But it doesnt matter how I feel, anything at all since I've left you with the wrong. impression while I'm still the same. When I turn around and look at my life, shadows in disguise but i'm working on an interruption of hypocrisy. Your on any other side. Clawing up my eyes. I'm feeling your arms around me on the other side, it's time to go. I'm hearing your voice without words on the other side. any other side |

hmm, lots of great songs to choose from. some of my favorite lyrics come from John Frusciante's song Central from his most recent album. That song is just magic. I'm central to nowhere
Thinking of sweeping it clean.
When we choose to go were losing more than just our surroundings.
I've gone around the sides of this universe as it stands.
Outside the limits of all existence,
Where light never ends.
We should be grateful to the gods.
Whoever they're real to, they are.
I value my placement as in Hell.
Remember that moment that I fell.
Anything that could one day be is as real as what I'm saying.
If something is nothing it must not be something in any possible way.
Lose yourself in the far off worlds that are right under your feet.
Switch below with above all the way up into infinity.
We should be thankful who we are,
Whether we know ourselves or not.
Walking alongside myself,
None of us listens very well.
I'm dreading a time that is not near,
As a man on a cross I have no fear,
I can't believe these words I'm saying...
You gotta feel your lines,
You gotta feel your lines. |

Soldier's Poem by MUSE Throw it all away
Lets lose ourselves
Because there's no one left for us to blame
It's a shame we're all dying
And do you think you deserve your freedom?
How could send us so far away from home
When you know damn well that this is wrong
I will still lay down my life for you
And do you think you deserve your freedom
No i don't think you do
There's no justice in the world
There's no justice in the world and there never was..... Uprising by MUSE Paranoia is in bloom
The PR Ttransmissions will resume
They'll try to push drugs that keep us all dumbed down
And hope that we will never see the truth around(so come on)
Another promise another seed
Another packaged lie to keep us trapped in greed
And all the green belts wrapped around our minds
And endless red tape to keep the truth confined(so come on)
They will not force us
They will stop degrading us
They will not control us
We will be victorious(so come on)[
Interchanging mind control
Come let the revolution take it's toll
If you could flick a switch and open your third eye
You'd see that
We should never be afraid to die(so come on)
Rise up and take the power back
It's time the fat cats had a heart attack
They know that their time's 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 enslave us
We will be victorious
They will not force us
They will stop degrading us
They can not control us
We will be victorious! Unnatural Selection by MUSE They'll laugh as they watch us fall,
The lucky don't care at all,
No hope for fate,
It's unnatural selection,
I want the truth
I am hungry for some unrest,
I want to push this beyond a peaceful protest,
I wanna speak in a language that they'll understand
Dedication, to a new age,
Is this the end of destruction and rampage?
Another just a chance to erase then repeat again
Counter balance this commotion,
We're not droplets in the ocean
Ocean
They'll laugh as they watch us fall,
The lucky don't care at all,
No hope for fate,
It's unnatural selection,
I want the truth
No religion or mind virus,
Is there a hope that the facts will ever find us,
Just make sure that you are looking out for number one
I am hungry for some unrest,
Let's push this beyond a peaceful protest,
I wanna speak in a language that you will understand
They'll laugh as they watch us crawl,
The lucky don't share at all,
No hope for fate, it's a random chance selection,
I want the truth
Try to ride out the storm,
Whilst they'll make you believe, that they are the special ones, (we have not been chosen),
Injustice is the norm,
You are not the first and you know you won't be the last
They'll laugh as they watch us fall,
The lucky don't care at all,
No hope for fate,
It's unnatural selection
I want the truth, I want the truth,
I want the truth! I want the truth!
Rise by EDDIE VEDDER Such is the way of the world
You can never know
Just where to put all your faith
And how will it grow
Gonna rise up
Burning black holes in dark memories
Gonna rise up
Turning mistakes into gold
Such is the passage of time
Too fast to fold
Suddenly swallowed by signs
Lo and behold
Gonna rise up
Find my direction magnetically
Gonna rise up
Throw down my Ace in the Hole Society by Jerry Hannan It's a mystery to me
We have a greed
With which we have agreed
And you think you have to
Want more than you need
Until you have it all
You won't be free
Society
You're a crazy breed
I hope you're not lonely
Without me
When you want more than you have
You think you need
And when you think more than you want
Your thoughts begin to bleed
I think I need to find a bigger place
Cause when you have
More than you think
You need more space
Society
Crazy indeed
Hope you're not lonely
Without me
There's those thinking more less
Less is more
But if less is more
How you keeping score?
Means for every point you make
Your level drops
Kinda like you're startin from the top
And you can't do that
Society
You're a crazy breed
Hope you're not lonely
Without me
Society
Have mercy on me
Hope you're not angry
If i disagree
Society
You're a crazy breed
Hope you're not lonely
without me Eternal Life by JEFF BUCKLEY Eternal life is now on my trail
Got my red glitter coffin man, just need one more nail
While all these ugly gentlemen play out their foolish games
There's a flaming red horizon that screams our names
And as your fantasies are broken in two
Did you really think this bloody road would pave the way for you
You better turn around and blow your kiss hello to life eternal
Angel
Racist everyman, what have you done
Man, you've made a killer of your unborn son
Crown my fear your king at the point of a gun
All i want to do is love everyone
And as your fantasies are broken in two
Did you really think this bloody road would pave the way for you
You better turn around and blow your kiss hello to life eternal
There's no time for hatred, only questions
What is love? Where is happiness? What is life? Where is Peace?
When will i find the strength to bring me release?
Tell me where is the love in what your prophet has said
It sounds to me just like a prison for the walking dead
And i've got a message for you and your twisted hell
You better turn around and blow your kiss goodbye to life eternal
Angel Lover You Should've Come Over by JEFF BUCKLEY Looking out the door i see the rain fall upon the funeral mourners
Parading in a wake of sad relations as their shoes fill up with water
And maybe i'm too young to keep good love from going wrong
But tonight you're on my mind so you never know
When i'm broken down and hungry for your love with no way to feed it
Where are you tonight, child you know how much i need it
Too young to hold on and too old to just break free and run
Sometimes a man gets carried away, when he feels like he should be having his fun
And much too blind to see the damage he's done
Sometimes a man must awake to find that really, he has no-one
So i'll wait for you... and i'll burn
Will I ever see your sweet return
Oh will I ever learn
Oh lover, you should've come over
'Cause it's not too late
Lonely is the room, the bed is made, the open window lets the rain in
Burning in the corner is the only one who dreams he had you with him
My body turns and yearns for a sleep that will never come
It's never over, my kingdom for a kiss upon her shoulder
It's never over, all my riches for her smiles when i slept so soft against her
It's never over, all my blood for the sweetness of her laughter
It's never over, she's the tear that hangs inside my soul forever
Well maybe i'm just too young
To keep good love from going wrong
Oh... lover, you should've come over
'Cause it's not too late
Well I feel too young to hold on
And i'm much too old to break free and run
Too deaf, dumb, and blind to see the damage i've done
Sweet lover, you should've come over
Oh, love well i'm waiting for you
Lover, you should've come over
'Cause it's not too late

Great lyrics there guys
Depend on Me - Bryan Adams
When you're losin' direction Baby you can depend on me For a little love and affection You can depend on me If ya feel brokenhearted and you just can't get started You can depend on me Ya know it's never easy and when you're feelin' blue There'll be times you feel so empty Ya sometimes I feel it too Like sister to brother - father to mother We live for each other - we're lover to lover As deep as an ocean - filled with emotion I'm forever open - can't you see Baby you can depend on me Depend on me - depend on me For someone to rely on and a shoulder to cry on You can depend on me If you're in need of some kindness And you can't seem to find it You can depend on me Well there ain't no need to worry you know we'll get along Those dark clouds may surround you But together we'll be strong Like sister to brother - father to mother We live for each other - we're lover to lover As deep as an ocean - filled with emotion I'm forever open - can't you see Baby you can depend on me Depend on me - depend on me Your love is a guiding light I've been watchin' it shine - shine on baby When hard times are all around And there's miles and miles of dirty road - depend on me There's no need to carry that heavy load - depend on me When hope is gone and all is lost Just reach out - take my hand I'll be there - I'll be your man Depend on me |

I keep going 'round and 'round on the same old circuit
A wire travels underground to a vacant lot
Where something I can't see interrupts the current
And shrinks the picture down to a tiny dot
And from behind the screen it can look so perfect
But it's not.
So here I'm sitting in my car at the same old stoplight
I keep waiting for a change, but I don't know what
So red turns into green turning into yellow
But I'm just frozen here at the same old spot
And all I have to do is to press the pedal
But I'm not.
People are tricky: you can't afford to show
Anything risky, anything they don't know
The moment you try: kiss it goodbye.
So, baby, kiss me like a drug, like a respirator
And let me fall into the dream of the astronaut
Where I get lost in space that goes on forever
And you make all the rest just an afterthought
And I believe it's you who can make things better
But you're not.
You're not.
-- Aimee Mann, "It's Not," from Lost in Space (1992)

VIOLENT DEMEANOUR - FIONN REGAN.
White knuckle alabastor
you're on a traffic island
with a bag of birthday cards
You're searching for a flick knife in the glovebox
It's a write off
No unauthorised personnel behind these lines
Without ID cards
Handguns are widely available
I've a violent demeanour
So tie me to a chair
Until it's out of my system
Until it's out of my system
Down the Shanghai tunnels
White knuckle alabastor
You talk to Jesus
You talk to Jesus
In a photobooth
He wants your bank details
Your date of birth
confess the truth
The institutions with the metal hearts
Chain the mentally ill to destitute walls
The wards of state do not illuminate the margins
I've a violent demeanour
So tie me to a chair
Until it's out of my system
Until it's out of my system
Down the Shanghai tunnels
There you were at the start of life
Looking up into your mothers eyes
Now there's pennies on your eyelids
I've a violent demeanour
So tie me to a chair
Until it's out of my system
Down the Shanghai tunnels
I've a violent demeanour
PROTECTION RACKET - FIONN REGAN
Be quiet katie there is someone at the hatch
You curse the darkness I'll strike a match
Undoing the latch I tripped on the scales and fell
Just as someone hit the reception bell
The ghost of that injury still remains my ankle starts to swell just before it rains
leaders of nations, wild alsations, crumbling foundations, I've lost my patience
These big companies are giving us the squeeze
Lets raise our glasses to mr. onassis
Protection racket (hand over the packet)
Rome needs cement (in this event)
Go over to the till katie (the national)
Pay this man his rent
It's a standard procedure
I forgot to mention that grandmas pension
Will ease the rent book tension
2.
A little birdie told me you've been syphoning the poor box
I heard the knitting circle disscusing chubb locks
Whats all the commotion? what do they expect?
With no sign of a promotion I've lost my self respect
You see I built this heap from scratch when I was poor
now they're asking me to hoover the floor
Splash some water over me slap round the face
Did I miss a meeting I don't recognise the place
The plug in the socket burns a hole in the pocket
These big companies are giving us the squeeze
Lets raise our glasses to mr. onassis
Protection racket (hand over the packet)
Rome needs cement (in this event)
Go over to the till katie (the national)
Pay this man his rent
it's a standard procedure

Within Temptation - It's The Fear
It waits for the day I will let it out.
To give it a reason, to give it its might.
I fear who I am becoming,
I feel that I am losing the struggle within.
I can no longer restrain it,
My strength it is fading,
I have to give in.
It's the fear
Fear of the dark
It's growing inside of me,
That one day will come to life.
Have to save
To save my beloved,
There is no escape,
Because my faith is horror and doom.
Hold down your head now,
Just let me pass by.
Don't feed my fear,
If you don't want it out.
I fear who I am becoming,
I feel that I am losing all beauty within.
I can no longer restrain it,
My strength is fading.
I have to give in.
It's the fear
Fear of the dark
It's growing inside of me,
That one day will come to life.
Have to save
To save my beloved,
There is no escape,
Because my faith is horror and doom.
Long ago it came to me
And ever since that day,
Infected with its rage
But it ends today.
It's the fear
Fear of the dark
It's growing inside of me,
That one day will come to life.
Have to save
To save my beloved,
There is no escape,
Because my faith is horror and doom.

Just gonna stand there
And watch me burn
But that's alright
Because I like
The way it hurts
Just gonna stand there
And hear me cry
But that's alright
Because I love
The way you lie
I love the way you lie
I love the way you lie
I can't tell you what it really is
I can only tell you what it feels like
And right now there's a steel knife
In my windpipe
I can't breathe
But I still fight
While I can fight
As long as the wrong feels right
It's like I'm in flight
High of a love
Drunk from the hate
It's like I'm huffing paint
And I love it the more that I suffer
I sufficate
And right before im about to drown
She resuscitates me
She f*cking hates me
And I love it
Wait
Where you going
I'm leaving you
No you ain't
Come back
We're running right back
Here we go again
It's so insane
Cause when it's going good
It's going great
I'm Superman
With the wind in his bag
She's Lois Lane
But when it's bad
It's awful
I feel so ashamed
I snap
Who's that dude
I don't even know his name
I laid hands on her
I'll never stoop so low again
I guess I don't know my own strength
Just gonna stand there
And watch me burn
But that's alright
Because I like
The way it hurts
Just gonna stand there
And hear me cry
But that's alright
Because I love
The way you lie
I love the way you lie
I love the way you lie
You ever love somebody so much
You can barely breathe
When you're with them
You meet
And neither one of you
Even know what hit 'em
Got that warm fuzzy feeling
Yeah them chills
Used to get 'em
Now you're getting f*cking sick
Of looking at 'em
You swore you've never hit 'em
Never do nothing to hurt 'em
Now you're in each other's face
Spewing venom
And these words
When you spit 'em
You push
Pull each other's hair
Scratch, claw, bit 'em
Throw 'em down
Pin 'em
So lost in the moments
When you're in 'em
It's the rage that took over
It controls you both
So they say it's best
To go your separate ways
Guess that they don't know ya
Cause today
That was yesterday
Yesterday is over
It's a different day
Sound like broken records
Playin' over
But you promised her
Next time you'll show restraint
You don't get another chance
Life is no Nintendo game
But you lied again
Now you get to watch her leave
Out the window
Guess that's why they call it window pane
Just gonna stand there
And watch me burn
But that's alright
Because I like
The way it hurts
Just gonna stand there
And hear me cry
But that's alright
Because I love
The way you lie
I love the way you lie
I love the way you lie
Now I know we said things
Did things
That we didn't mean
And we fall back
Into the same patterns
Same routine
But your temper's just as bad
As mine is
You're the same as me
But when it comes to love
You're just as blinded
Baby please come back
It wasn't you
Baby it was me
Maybe our relationship
Isn't as crazy as it seems
Maybe that's what happens
When a tornado meets a volcano
All I know is
I love you too much
To walk away though
Come inside
Pick up your bags off the sidewalk
Don't you hear sincerity
In my voice when I talk
Told you this is my fault
Look me in the eyeball
Next time I'm pissed
I'll aim my fist
At the dry wall
Next time
There will be no next time
I apologize
Even though I know it's lies
I'm tired of the games
I just want her back
I know I'm a liar
If she ever tries to f*cking leave again
I'mma tie her to the bed
And set the house on fire
Just gonna stand there
And watch me burn
But that's alright
Because I like
The way it hurts
Just gonna stand there
And hear me cry
But that's alright
Because I love
The way you lie
I love the way you lie
I love the way you lie
Thinking this is one of Eminems best songs ever!

Monochrome - Yann Tiersen
Anyway, i can try anything it's the same
circle that leads to nowhere and i'm tired now.
anyway, i've lost my face, my dignity, my look,
all of these things are gone and i'm tired now.
but don't be scared, i found a good job and i go to work
every day on my old bicycle you loved.
i'm pilling up some unread books under my bed
and i really think i'll never read again.
no concentration, just a white disorder
everywhere around me, you know i'm so tired now.
but don't worry i often go to dinners and parties with some old friends
who care for me, take me back home and stay.
mochrome floors, monochrome walls, only abscence near me,
nothing but silence around me.
monochrome flat, monochrome life, only abscence near me,
nothing but silence around me.
sometimes i search an event or something to remember,
but i've really got nothing in mind.
sometimes i open the windows and listen people
walking in the down streets. there is a life out there.
but don't be scared, i found a good job and i go to work
every day on my old bicycle you loved.
anyway, i can try anything it's the same
circle that leads to nowhere and i'm tired now.
anyway, i've lost my face, my dignity, my look,
all of these things are gone and i'm tired now.
but don't be scared, i found a good job and i go to work
every day on my old bicycle you loved.
mochrome floors, monochrome walls, only abscence near me,
nothing but silence around me.
monochrome flat, monochrome life, only abscence near me,
nothing but silence around me.
This song makes me feel like running in circles and I'm always a bit sad when I liste to it, but it's one of my favorites ^^

I think Airborne Toxic Event writes some of the best, most mature lyrics going these days. This song really gets me - such an honest look at a relationship. Especially the last few lines.
"All I Ever Wanted"
I can only say these things to you while you're sleeping.
I hear the hum from the wires and the sounds of the morning creeping in.
I lie awake and pretend you can hear me.
You tell me that you're scared that you're turning into your mother.
I feel myself turning into my father.
We could lie to each other like they do, and say we're so happy.
It's easy when you're young and you still want it so badly.
And I feel my heart pounding,
And I think I might scream.
And I could tell you that you're all I've ever wanted, dear
I could utter every word you'd ever hope to hear.
I shudder when I think that I might not be here forever, forever, forever.
In the night you whisper like a ghost and you look so shaken
You're so quiet and small and you tell me you want to be taken.
I just never think of you as the kind of girl who would say that...
You suddenly seem like some faceless thing in my grasp.
Your eyes so wide, your face aglow,
It's the face of someone I don't know...
I could tell you that you're all I've ever wanted, dear
I could utter every word you'd ever hope to hear.
I shudder when I think that I might not be here forever, forever, forever.
All I can think is that it must be a kind of rebellion,
To arm your fears like soldiers and slay them...
And I can tell you that you're all I've ever wanted dear,
Through the din of your breathing while you're sleeping here,
You wake and you ask me if I'm gonna be here forever, forever, forever.
Your face so twisted and your eyes alight,
I wanna tell you I can change the way you cry at night.
But I'd be lying.
Love is defying.

"The Lovers are Losing" -- Keane This song is real poetry, and I love listening to it in the car on the way to work I dreamed I was drowning
In the river Thames
I dreamed I had nothing at all
Nothing but my own skin
Slipped away from your open hands
Into the river
Saw your face looking back at me
I saw my past and I saw my future
You take the pieces of the dreams that you have
Cause you don't like the way they seem to be going
You cut them up and spread them out on the floor
You're full of hope as you begin rearranging
Put it all back together
But anyway you look at things and try
The lovers are losing
I dreamed I was watching
The young lover's dance
I reached out to touch your hand
But I was watching from a distance
We cling to love like a skidding car
Clinched to the corner
I try to hold on to what we are
The more I squeeze the quicker we all are
You take the pieces of the dreams that you have
Cause you don't like the way they seem to be going
You cut them up and spread them out on the floor
You're full of hope as you begin rearranging
Put it all back together
But anyway you look at things and try
The lovers are losing
I dreamed I had nothing at all (nothing at all)
I dreamed I had nothing at all
You take the pieces of the dreams that you had
Cause you don't like the way they seem to be going
You cut them up and spread them out on the floor
You're full of hope as you begin rearranging
Put it all back together
But in the final reckoning
We're trying
The lovers are losing |
