Lyrics that speak to you...

Right now, a Boyce Avenue song "On my way" is really speaking to me (even though the guy who wrote it is speaking about waiting for his virginal bride...I just like the "hang in there kitty" sentiment of it all)

...Lay down
And come alive in all you've found
All you're meant to be
And for now
We'll wait until the morning light
And close our eyes to see
Just close your eyes to see ...

And when you feel no saving grace
Well I'm on my way
On my way
And when you're bound to second place
Well I'm on my way
On my way
So don't believe it's all in vain
Cause I'm on my way
On my way
The light at the end is worth the pain
Cause I'm on my way
On my way
 
Almost anything by the artist 'A Fine Frenzy'.

And I really enjoy that Nickleback song 'Figured you out' (yes, I know, it's Nickleback, but they've got a few good songs.)
 
A great dutch artist died this week and he wrote the most beautiful songs. This is one of them (translated by me)

Sing, fight, cry, pray, laugh, work and admire by Ramses Shaffy


For the person in a shelter behind glass
For the person with the herds of estimating
For the person who thought he was alone
You should now know, we are all together

For the person with the closed book
For the person with the fastforgotten names
For the person who search fruitlessly
You should now know, we are all together

refrain:
Sing, fight, cry, pray, laugh, work, and admire
Sing, fight, cry, pray, laugh, work, and admire
Sing, fight, cry, pray, laugh, work, and admire
Sing, fight, cry, pray, laugh, work, and admire
Not without us

For the person with the sleepless night
For the person who cannot testify luck
For those who do nothing, just wait
You should now know, we are all together

For the person with the measureless pride
In risk-free high tower
At risk-free high rock
You should now know, this is not how we were born

refrain
Sing, fight, cry, pray, laugh, work, and admire
Sing, fight, cry, pray, laugh, work, and admire
Sing, fight, cry, pray, laugh, work, and admire
Sing, fight, cry, pray, laugh, work, and admire
Not without us

For the person with the open face
For the person's naked body
For the person in the white light
For the person who knows, we come together

refrain
Sing, fight, cry, pray, laugh, work, and admire
Sing, fight, cry, pray, laugh, work, and admire
Sing, fight, cry, pray, laugh, work, and admire
Sing, fight, cry, pray, laugh, work, and admire
Not without us
Not without us
 
Whenever I'm alone with you
You make me feel like I am home again
Whenever I'm alone with you
You make me feel like I am whole again
Whenever I'm alone with you
You make me feel like I am young again
Whenever I'm alone with you
You make me feel like I am fun again

Opening to Lovesong by the Cure

I have always thought these were such simple, yet powerful lyrics.
 
Closer- NIN

you let me violate you. you let me desecrate you
you let me penetrate you. you let me complicate you
help me i broke apart my insides. help me i've got no soul to sell
help me the only thing that works for me. help me get away from myself

i want to fuck you like an animal
i want to feel you from the inside
i want to fuck you like an animal
my whole existence is flawed
you get me closer to god

you can have my isolation. you can have the hate that it brings
you can have my absence of faith. you can have my everything
help me you tear down my reason. help me it's your sex i can smell
help me you make me perfect. help me become somebody else

i want to fuck you like an animal
i want to feel you from the inside
i want to fuck you like an animal
my whole existence is flawed
you get me closer to god

through every forest, above the trees
within my stomach. scraped off my knees
i drink the honey inside your hive
you are the reason i stay alive
 
Excerpt from Good Enough by Evanescence

Good enough,
I feel good enough.
It's been such a long time coming, but I feel good.

And I'm still waiting for the rain to fall.
Pour real life down on me.
'Cause I can't hold on to anything this good enough.
Am I good enough for you to love me too?

So take care what you ask of me,
'cause I can't say no.

I was about to post those! haha. One of my all time favorite songs.
 
I love Ben Harper, and this line in particular (rom Walk Away):

Oh no, here comes that sun again
That means another day without you my friend

Also, this song keeps me grounded:
Don't let your mind get weary and confused
Your will be still, don't try
Don't let your heart get heavy child
Inside you there's a strength that lies

Don't let your soul get lonely child
It's only time, it will go by
Don't look for love in faces, places
It's in you, that's where you'll find kindness

Be here now, here now
Be here now, here now

Don't lose your faith in me
And I will try not to lose faith in you
Don't put your trust in walls
'Cause walls will only crush you when they fall

Be here now, here now
Be here now, here now

(Ray LaMontagne, Be Here Now)
 
Awww, no! I've never seen them live...but maybe I don't want to now?

oh no, this year was his "last" tour supposedly...if you ever get the chance to see nine inch nails live do it...they are absalutly the best band I have seen live, the live version is so awsome it makes the albumb sound bad.

check this vid out, and the vid barely dose the performance justice.

Here, here. I agree totally.

Not necessarily lyrics, but the message of "Heaven" by Live.
 
Killswitch engage

Starting Over

Yeah!

Come on!

Do you remember what we used to have?
As if all our dreams were possible
All that existed was you and I
But distance has torn us apart

Forgive me for all that I've done wrong
Lead me back to where my heart belongs

Can we start again?
Go back in time to where we started
Can we start again?
What we had can't be discarded

Do you remember the promises we made?
But somehow we have lost our way
Take me back to where my heart belongs
Forever grateful every day

I know that you doubt my words
I swear there will never be regret

Can we start again?
We thought love was everlasting
Can we start again?
What we had just can't be wasted

Silent vows were broken
And words that can't be taken back
But you mean so much more to me
Than anything I've ever known

And this is the hope for tomorrow
That today you will return

Can we start again?
Go back in time to where we started
Can we start again?
What we have can't be discarded

Can we start again? (Do you remember?)
Can we start again? (All over)
Can we start again?

Go back in time to where we started
----------------------------------------------------------

kinda romantic song this one

Lifehouse

this band was popular a few years back...

Wrap my arms
Around your name
Feel your breath
Against my pain
As i breathe out the past is gone

Empty smile
Naked heart
Who I Was
Falls apart
When you're here inside of me

Feel till you're numb
Depth perception becoming
The new deaf & dumb

I'm losing myself just to find a place in your mind
In your mind
Changing myself just to stand along in your eyes
In your eyes... pull me in
Take me out
Make me over

Read the wave
Ride your fears
In this ocean of years
We've been here, swimming on

Take me deep
Till I find
Every corner of your mind
We've been here, swimming on

Touch till you taste
All the time we are wasting
Alone, waiting here

I'm losing myself just to find a place in your mind
In your mind
Changing myself just to stand
Alone in your eyes
Your eyes...
Pull me in
Take me out
Make me over and shout me out loud
Shout me out loud
 
she spreads herself wide open to let the insects in
she leaves a trail of honey to show me where she's been
she has the blood of reptile just underneath her skin
seeds from a thousand others drip down from within

oh my beautiful liar
oh my precious whore
my disease my infection
I am so impure

give it

devils speak of the way in which she'll manifest
angels bleed from the tainted touch of my caress
need to contaminate to alleviate this loneliness
I now know the depths I reach are limitless

oh my beautiful liar
oh my precious whore
my disease my infection
I am so impure

oh

oh

oh my beautiful liar
oh my precious whore
my disease my infection
I am so impure
oh my beautiful liar
oh my precious whore
my disease my infection
I am so impure


Reptile - Nine Inch Nails
 
RADIOHEAD - CREEP (also brilliantly covered by Chrissie Hynde)
When you were here before,
Couldn't look you in the eye
You're just like an angel,
Your skin makes me cry

You float like a feather
In a beautiful world
I wish I was special
You're so fuckin' special

But I'm a creep,
I'm a weirdo
What the hell am I doin' here?
I don't belong here

I don't care if it hurts,
I wanna have control
I want a perfect body
I want a perfect soul

I want you to notice
when I'm not around
You're so fuckin' special
I wish I was special

But I'm a creep
I'm a weirdo
What the hell am I doin' here?
I don't belong here, ohhhh, ohhhh

She's running out again
She's running out
She run run run run...
run... run...

Whatever makes you happy
Whatever you want
You're so fuckin' special
I wish I was special

But I'm a creep,
I'm a weirdo
What the hell am I doin' here?
I don't belong here

I don't belong here...


THE PRETENDERS - HUMAN
I play a good game,
But not good as you
I can be a little cold, but you can be so cruel
I'm not made of brick, I'm not made of stone
But I had you fooled enough
To take me on
If love was a war, it's you who has won
While I was confessing it, you held your tongue
Now the damage is done...

[Chorus:]
Well there's blood in these veins
And I cry when in pain
I'm only human on the inside
And if looks can deceive
Make it hard to believe
I'm only human on the inside

I thought you'd come through,
I thought you'd come clean
You were the best thing I should never have seen
But you go to extremes, you push me too far
Then you keep going 'til you break my heart
Yeah, you break my heart
See I bleed and I bruise, oh, but what's it to you
I'm only human on the inside
And if looks could deceive,
Make it hard to believe
I'm only human on the inside
I crash and I burn, maybe some day you'll learn
I'm only human on the inside
I stumble and fall, baby, under it all
I'm only human on the inside
And the damage is done...

[Chorus]

I crash and I burn, maybe some day you'll learn
I stumble and fall, baby, I do it all
I'm only human on the inside
 
Cross posted in another thread of mine today, but I'm all over the intro to Eminem's new tune, 'Til I Collapse:

"'Cause sometimes you feel tired,
feel weak, and when you feel weak, you feel like you wanna just give up.
But you gotta search within you, you gotta find that inner strength
and just pull that shit out of you and get that motivation to not give up
and not be a quitter, no matter how bad you wanna just fall flat on your face and collapse."


Strength. I dig it.
:cool:
 
Your trust has been misplaced, believed the lies told to your face
Became another casualty and now it's too late.
You finally made it home, draped in the flag that you fell for.
And so it goes
The ashes of the wake.

Hourglass - Lamb of God
 
"'Cause sometimes you feel tired,
feel weak, and when you feel weak, you feel like you wanna just give up.
But you gotta search within you, you gotta find that inner strength
and just pull that shit out of you and get that motivation to not give up
and not be a quitter, no matter how bad you wanna just fall flat on your face and collapse."


Wow. Thanks for that. Should make it my mantra.
 
Jack Johnson : Hope Lyrics

Your shadow walks faster than you
You don’t really know what to do
Do you think that you’re not alone?
You really think that you are immune to
Its gonna get that the best of you
Its gonna lift you up and let you down

It will defeat you
Then teach you to get back up
After it takes away
All that you learn to love

Your reflection is a blur
Out of focus
But in confusion
The frames the sun did burn
At the end of a roll of dellusions
A ghost waiting its turn
Now I see can right through it
It's a warning that nobody heard

It will teach you
To love what you’re afraid of
After it takes away
All that you learn to love

But you don’t
Always
Have to hold to your head
Higher than your heart

You better hope you’re not alone
You better hope you’re not alone

Your echo comes back out of tune
Now you can't quite get used to it
Reverb is just the room
The problem is that there’s no truth to it
It fading way too soon
Your shadow is on the move
And maybe you should be moving too

Before it takes away
All that you learned to love
It will defeat you
Then teach you to get back up

Because you don’t
Always
Have to hold your head
Higher than your heart

You better hope you’re not alone
You better hope you’re not alone
 
I first heard this song by Jose Nunez in a virtual strip club in second life. I spent all day there.
=======================
The only aphrodisiac I need is your voice
Hearing you speak my name
Beckoning me to answer
Telling me you want me
So I tell you that you're the answer to every question I've ever had about love

Without words I use my tongue to tell the tale of us
Tracing your shadowscape
Kneeling before you my eyes feast upon your masculinity and
All its divinity and I praise you
Because all of that is for me

I begin to indulge myself of your delicacies
Digesting semi-sweet dark chocolate decadence as it melts
Dripping down my chin
Your taste is something Godiva couldn't re-create

Needing every atom of your anatomy
Necessity is placed upon me knowing you are the source of my serendipity
Dipping in and out of me stroking more than my consciesness
Subconsciously I find myself rewinding our love scenes
In my daydreams
Seeing that face you make when you're making me cum
And it makes me want you right there and then

Thinking of you in inappropriate places I get
Tingling sensations in private locations where I wish to be caught between a rock and your hard place


As wetness develops my legs begin to open and my spot turns to a backdraft and all I want you to do is extinguish it
You know my body like the back of your hands
And touch me and send me into ecstacy


My thighs quiver in anticipation of deep penetration which gets me high
Body rising
Sweating
Panting
Make-up melting
Pulling my hair and
Scratching my back
I get a temporary case of tourettes because all I can say are four letter words in a four octave-range screaming your name

Aye papi.... *English Translation of Spanish Lyrics* "You are so big and so hard, you give it to me so good, you are my mortal sin."


You fucking me makes me bilingual
You fucking me makes me bilingual
You fucking me makes me bilingual
You fucking me makes me bilingual
You fucking me makes me bilingual


I see your tongue pink between your lips and I want it between mine
And I struggle
As you lick torturing me
I try to get away but
Not really


Running out of room begging for more up against the wall that has been scuffed by my stilletos
Again
You pry apart my thighs and tell me to be still
And I willingly submit to you because I love the way you dominate me
Demanding that I cum for you so I do as I'm told


You've molded me so I'm good to no-one else but you
You've conquered this once orgasmicless world and multiplied it
Again and
Again

My face radiates with after-glow
My pillow scented by you
A fragrance which haunts me
My room smells of the best sex


Covered in body prints and finger prints and you above me
Your name written indelibly upon my body in your genetic history


You fucking me makes me bilingual
You fucking me makes me bilingual
You fucking me makes me bilingual

Love that song...it is a very good one... erotic too.
 
Well a song that always speaks to me and it seemed to help me through a
moment in my life.......

Framing Hanley ~ Hear me now


Well, I swear that's you and god, we've been down this road before
That the guilt's no good and it only shames us more
And the truths that we all tried to hide
Are so much clear when it's not our lives, we don't face the blame

Won't you, get on your knees
Believe, have faith
In this lie with us all

Now, my body's on the floor
And I am calling
Well, I'm calling out to you
Can you hear me now?

Well, it's not a rebellion when you're selling out
To another fashion salesman
Our promising lives are full of empty promises
Temptation's falling and calling you home again
Well, I'm sorry if we've let you down

Won't you, get on your knees
Believe, have faith
In this lie with us all

Now, my body's on the floor
And I am calling
Well, I'm calling out to you
Oh, can you hear me now?

Now, my body's on the floor
And I am calling
Well, I'm calling out to you
Oh, can you feel me now?

What's wrong? What's wrong? What's wrong?
What's wrong? What's wrong? What's wrong?
Well, what's wrong? What's wrong? What's wrong?
What's wrong? What's wrong? What's wrong?

Now, my body's on the floor
And I am calling
Well, I'm calling out to you

Now, my body's on the floor
And I am calling
Now, my body's on the floor
And I am calling

Now, my body's on the floor
And I am calling
Well, I'm calling out to you
