His goal in life was to be an echo (a lyrics post)
His goal in life was to be an echo
Riding alone, town after town, toll after toll A fixed bayonet through the great southwest to forget her She appears in his dreams But in his car and in his arms A dream can mean anything A cheap sunset on a television set can upset her But he never could Remember to remember me Standing still in your past Floating fast like a hummingbird His goal in life was to be an echo The type of sound that floats around and then back down Like a feather But in the deep chrome canyons of the loudest Manhattans No one could hear him Or anything So he slept on a mountain In a sleeping bag underneath the stars He would lie awake and count them And the gray fountain spray of the great Milky Way Would never let him Die alone Remember to remember me Standing still in your past Floating fast like a hummingbird Remember to remember me Standing still in your past Floating fast like a hummingbird A hummingbird A hummingbird |
always have to steal my kisses from you

so emo
I read the pages about me
In her autobiography They were brief and to the point Our flesh, while you are getting dressed A memory that needs to be repressed I'll just wait until it's over Since you've gone away I never know just what to say Since you've gone away I never know just what to say Cause I like cars more than telephones Your voice in my ear makes me feel so alone Tonight I'm gonna drive The silver moon is shining bright Over the interstate God saying hurry don't be late Soon the sun will rise That's when the romance dies And I'm just tired of running around I walked To get the mail today I guess Your letter never came I'll just Check again tomorrow Our flesh while you are getting dressed Memory that needs to be repressed I'll just wait without saying a word Since you've gone away I never know just what to say Since you've gone away I never know just what to say Cause I like cars more than telephones Your voice in my head makes me feel so alone Tonight I'm gonna drive The silver moon is shining bright Over the interstate God saying hurry don't be late Soon the sun will rise That's when the romance dies And I'm just tired of running around But fuck it I love you even if I'm gonna feel like shit By the time I get to you Now the sky is turning blue The stars they disappear One by one with daylight dear And yes you're in my head But that doesn't make you here And I've lost all my friends But you're the one I miss the most And now I'm almost there Yeah I'm almost to the coast And if I had any notion Of how I'm gonna drive my car across the Atlantic Ocean I'd be fucking set |

"Take a Bow" - Muse
Corrupt You're corrupt Bring corruption to all that you touch Hold You behold And beholden for all that you've done And spin Cast a spell Cast a spell on the country you run And risk You will risk You will risk all their lives and their souls And burn You will burn You will burn in hell, yeah you'll burn in hell You'll burn in hell Yeah you'll burn in hell For your sins And our freedom's consuming itself What we've become It's contrary to what we want Take a bow Death You bring death, and destruction to all that you touch Pay You must pay You must pay for your crimes against the earth Yeah hex Feed the hex Feed the hex on the country you love Now beg You will beg You will beg for their lives and their souls Now burn You will burn You will burn in hell, yeah you'll burn in hell You'll burn in hell Yeah you'll burn in hell You'll burn in hell Yeah you'll burn in hell For your sins This song is by far the finest of the current crop of protest songs. Everytime I hear it I get a chill down my spine. For those of you uninitiated, I highly suggest checking it out. Track one of the new album (Black holes and Revelations). |
No, this is how it works
You peer inside yourself You take the things you like And try to love the things you took And then you take that love you made And stick it into some Someone else's heart Pumping someone else's blood And walking arm in arm You hope it don't get harmed But even if it does You'll just do it all again |

Look up, what do you see?
All of you and all of me Fluorescent and starry Some of them, they surprise The bus ride, I went to write this, 4:00 a.m. This letter Fields of poppies, little pearls All the boys and all the girls sweet-toothed Each and every one a little scary I said your name I wore it like a badge of teenage film stars Hash bars, cherry mash and tinfoil tiaras Dreaming of Maria Callas Whoever she is This fame thing, I don't get it I wrap my hand in plastic to try to look through it Maybelline eyes and girl-as-boy moves I can take you far This star thing, I don't get it I'll take you over, there I'll take you over, there Aluminum, tastes like fear Adrenaline, it pulls us near I'll take you over It tastes like fear, there I'll take you over Will you live to 83? Will you ever welcome me? Will you show me something that nobody else has seen? Smoke it, drink Here comes the flood Anything to thin the blood These corrosives do their magic slowly and sweet Phone, eat it, drink Just another chink Cuts and dents, they catch the light Aluminum, the weakest link I don't want to disappoint you I'm not here to anoint you I would lick your feet But is that the sickest move? I wear my own crown and sadness and sorrow And who'd have thought tomorrow could be so strange? My loss, and here we go again I'll take you over, there I'll take you over, there Aluminum, tastes like fear Adrenaline, it pulls us near I'll take you over It tastes like fear, there I'll take you over Look up, what do you see? All of you and all of me Fluorescent and starry Some of them, they surprise I can't look it in the eyes Seconal, Spanish fly, absinthe, kerosene Cherry-flavored neck and collar I can smell the sorrow on your breath The sweat, the victory and sorrow The smell of fear, I got it I'll take you over, there I'll take you over, there Aluminum, tastes like fear Adrenaline, it pulls us near I'll take you over It tastes like fear, there I'll take you over Pulls us near Tastes like fear. Nearer, nearer Over, over, over, over Yeah, look over I'll take you there, oh, yeah I'll take you there Oh, over I'll take you there Over, let me I'll take you there.. There, there, baby, yeah |
Stop thief; you're gonna come to grief
if you don't take a little more care. You're gonna get more than the family plan from this one shoestring affair. I may be crazy but I can't contemplate being trapped between the doctor and the magistrate. One of these days I'm gonna pay it back, pay it back, one of these days. One of these days I'm gonna pay it back, pay it back, one of these days. And then they told me I could be somebody if I didn't let too much get in my way. And I tried so hard just to be myself, but I keep on fading away. Until the lights went out, I didn't know what to do. If I could fool myself, then maybe I'd fool you too. One of these days I'm gonna pay it back, pay it back, one of these days. One of these days I'm gonna pay it back, pay it back, one of these days. I wouldn't say that I was raised on romance. Let's not get stuck in the past. I love you more than everything in the world. I don't expect that will last. They told me everything was guaranteed. Somebody somewhere must've lied to me. One of these days I'm gonna pay it back, pay it back, one of these days. One of these days I'm gonna pay it back, pay it back, one of these days. |
I can't sing it strong enough
'Cause that kind of strength I just don't have With a watch, the light changed To "hold" then "hanging" You think it's easy, but you're wrong I am not one half of the problem Zürich is stained, and it's not my fault Just hold me back or let me run So what does it mean, a mistake or two If it's the kind of mistakes no one can trace To the fountain where we sold it And held them hanging? You think it's easy, but you're wrong I am not one half of the problem Zürich is stained, and it's not my fault Just hold me back or let me run |
a lyrics post would be more effective if it was just made of excerpts. For example, I don't feel like reading through and appreciating 10 entire songs right now. Sorry to criticize. I will contribute something now:
Comin up I was confused my momma kissin a girl Confusion occurs comin up in the cold world Daddy ain't around probably out commitin felonies My favorite rapper used to sing ch-check out my melody I wanna live good, so shit I sell dope Fo a four finger ring, and gold ropes Nana' told me if I pass could get a sheep skin coat If I can move a few packs and get the hat, now that'd be dope Tossed and turned in my sleep that night Woke up the next morning niggas done stole my bike Everyday same shit, AINT nothin' good in the hood I'd run away from this bitch and never come back if I could If the lyrics are a bit off its the internet's fault. |
Say hello to the rug's topography
It holds quite a lot of interest with your face down on it Say hello to the shrinking in your head You can't see it but you know its there so don't neglect it I'm taking her home with me all dressed in white She's got everything I need pharmacy keys She's falling hard for me I can see it in her eyes She acts just like a nurse with all the other guys Say hello to all the apples on the ground They were once in your eyes but you sneezed them out while sleeping Say hello to everything you've left behind It's even more a part of your life now that you can't touch it I'm taking her home with me all dressed in white She's got everything I need some pills in a little cup She's falling hard for me I can see it in her eyes She acts just like a nurse with all the other guys She's got everything I need pharmacy keys She acts just like a nurse with all the other guys Say hello to the rug's topography |
Now Im in the limelight cause I rhyme tight
Time to get paid, blow up like the world trade Born sinner, the opposite of a winner Remember when I used to eat sardines for dinner I never thought it could happen, this rappin stuff I was too used to packin gats and stuff Now honeys play me close like butter plays toast From the mississippi down to the east coast Super nintendo, sega genesis When I was dead broke, man I couldnt picture this 50 inch screen, money green leather sofa Got two rides, a limousine with a chauffeur |
threads like this make me want to join Al-Queda.
i can see why a Jihad is upon when shit like this represents a culture. the first one is alright...but the rest, errrrrrrm. i'd rather read what you guys have inside you. |

Of all i knew
I held too few And would you stop me? If i tried to stop you? Old songs, stay to the end Sad songs, remind me of friends And the way it is, i could leave it all And i ask myself, would you care at all When i drive alone at night I see the streetlights as fairgrounds And i tried a hundred times To see the road signs as day-glow Old songs, stay to the end Sad songs, remind me of friends And the way it is, i could leave it all And i ask myself, would you care at all |

Trying to remember what my daddy said
Before too much time took away his head He said we're going back and I'll show you what I'm talking about Going back to Cypress River, back to the old farmhouse (Prairie wind blowing through my head) (Prairie wind blowing through my head) (Trying to remember what Daddy said) (Prairie wind blowing through my head) I tried to tell the people but they never heard a word I say They say there's nothing out there but wheat fields anyway Just a farmer's wife hanging laundry in her back yard Out on the prairie where the winds blow long and hard (Prairie wind blowing through my head) (Prairie wind blowing through my head) (Trying to remember what Daddy said) (Prairie wind blowing through my head) Late at night, lights dancing in the northern sky Like the Indian spirits trying to show me how to fly You can see into the future but it may be a mirage Like a new car sitting there in your old garage (Prairie wind blowing through my head) (Prairie wind blowing through my head) (Prairie wind blowing through my head) (Trying to remember what Daddy said) There's a place on the prairie where evil and goodness play Daddy told me all about it but I don't remember what he said It might be afternoon and it might be the dead of night But you'll know when you see it 'cause it sure is a hell of a sight (Prairie wind blowing through my head) (Prairie wind blowing through my head) (Prairie wind blowing through my head) (Prairie wind blowing through my head) (Prairie wind blowing through my head) (Prairie wind blowing through my head) Prairie wind blowing through my head (Prairie wind blowing through my head) Trying to remember what Daddy said (Prairie wind blowing through my head) Before too much time took away his head (Prairie wind blowing through my head) He said we're going back and I'll show you what I'm talking about (Prairie wind blowing through my head) (Prairie wind blowing through my head) Going back to Cypress River, back to the old farmhouse (Prairie wind blowing through my head) (Prairie wind blowing through my head) (Prairie wind blowing through my head) (Prairie wind blowing through my head) (Trying to remember what Daddy said) (Prairie wind blowing through my head)... |
The official song of my divorce...
When routine bites hard, and ambitions are low And resentment rides high, but emotions won't grow And we're changing our ways, taking different roads Then love, love will tear us apart again Why is the bedroom so cold? You've turned away on your side Is my timing that flawed, have our feelings run dry? Yet there's still this appeal that we've kept through our lives Love, love will tear us apart again You cry out in your sleep, all my failings expose There's a taste in my mouth, as desperation takes hold Just that something so good just can't function no more When love, love will tear us apart again |
i think it's the official song of Ian Curtis's divorce too

whenever I run
whenever I run to you lost one it's never done just hanging on just past has let me be returning as if dream shattered as belief if you have to go don't say goodbye if you have to go don't you cry if you have to go I will get by someday I'll follow you and see you on the other side but for the grace of love I'd will the meaning of heaven from above your picture out of time left aching in my mind shadows kept alive if you have to go don't say goodbye if you have to go don't you cry if you have to go I will get by I will follow you and see you on the other side but for the grace of love I'd will the meaning of heaven from above long horses we are born creatures more than torn mourning our way home |

She's a dandelion up on a cliff above the sea
She's not exactly everything I thought that she might be She's a dandelion she looks like everything I need I thought she was a flower but I found out she's a weed |
