Your Favourite Lyrics

[Yamisonic]

Best lyrics ever (for the stupid, it's Pink Floyd - Time):

Ticking away the moments that make up a dull day

You fritter and waste the hours in an off hand way

Kicking around on a piece of ground in your home town

Waiting for someone or something to show you the way

Tired of lying in the sunshine staying home to watch the rain

You are young and life is long and there is time to kill today

And then one day you find ten years have got behind you

No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun

And you run and you run to catch up with the sun, but it’s sinking

And racing around to come up behind you again

The sun is the same in the relative way, but you’re older

Shorter of breath and one day closer to death

Every year is getting shorter, never seem to find the time

Plans that either come to naught or half a page of scribbled lines

Hanging on in quiet desperation is the english way

The time is gone, the song is over, thought I’d something more to say

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

YES! Those are the best lyrics EVER.

And yeah, that cannibal corpse thing is scary! But it's so sick maybe that's why he likes it: It hits you hard.

Cat Stevens - father and son

[krissirge]

forgot this

Slayer - Angel Of Death

Auschwitz, the meaning of pain

The way that I want you to die

Slow death, immense decay

Showers that cleanse you of your life

Forced in

Like cattle

You run

Stripped of

Your life’s worth

Human mice, for the angel of death

Four hundred thousand more to die

Angel of death

Monarch to the kingdom of the dead

Sadistic, surgeon of demise

Sadist of the noblest blood

Destroying, without mercy

To benefit the aryan race

Surgery, with no anesthesia

Fell the knife pierce you intensely

Inferior, no use to mankind

Strapped down screaming out to die

Angel of death

Monarch to the kingdom of the dead

Infamous butcher,

Angel of death

Pumped with fluid, inside your brain

Pressure in your skull begins pushing through your eyes

Burning flesh, drips away

Test of heat burns your skin, your mind starts to boil

Frigid cold, cracks your limbs

How long can you last

In this frozen water burial?

Sewn together, joining heads

Just a matter of time

’til you rip yourselves apart

Millions laid out in their

Crowded tombs

Sickening ways to achieve

The holocaust

Seas of blood, bury life

Smell your death as it burns

Deep inside of you

Abacinate, eyes that bleed

Praying for the end of

Your wide awake nightmare

Wings of pain, reach out for you

His face of death staring down,

Your blood running cold

Injecting cells, dying eyes

Feeding on the screams of

The mutants he’s creating

Pathetic harmless victims

Left to die

Rancid angel of death

Flying free

[ angel of death

Monarch to the kingdom of the dead

Infamous butcher,

Angel of death

Angel of death]

U2 - Kite

Something is about to give

I can feel it coming

I think I know what it means

I'm not afraid to die

I'm not afraid to live

And when I'm flat on my back

I hope to feel like I did

‘Cause hardness, it sets in

You need some protection

The thinner the skin

I want you to know

That you don't need me anymore

I want you to know

You don't need anyone, anything at all

Who's to say where the wind will take you

Who's to know what it is will break you

I don't know which way the wind will blow

Who's to know when the time has come around

Don't wanna see you cry

I know that this is not goodbye

In summer I can taste the salt in the sea

There's a kite blowing out of control on a breeze

I wonder what's gonna happen to you

You wonder what has happened to me

I'm a man, I'm not a child

A man who sees

The shadow behind your eyes

Who's to say where the wind will take you

Who's to know what it is will break you

I don't know where the wind will blow

Who's to know when the time has come around

I don't wanna see you cry

I know that this is not goodbye

Did I waste it?

Not so much I couldn't taste it

Life should be fragrant

Roof top to the basement

The last of the rock stars

When hip hop drove the big cars

In the time when new media

Was the big idea

That was the big idea

and of course Pink Floyd - Echoes

Overhead the albatross

Hangs motionless upon the air

And deep beneath the rolling waves

In labyrinths of coral caves

An echo of a distant time

Comes willowing across the sand

And everything is green and submarine.

And no one called us to the land

And no one knows the where's or why's.

Something stirs and something tries

Starts to climb toward the light.

Strangers passing in the street

By chance two separate glances meet

And I am you and what I see is me.

And do I take you by the hand

And lead you through the land

And help me understand

The best I can.

And no one called us to the land

And no one crosses there alive.

No one speaks and no one tries

No one flies around the sun....

Almost everyday you fall

Upon my waking eyes,

Inviting and inciting me

To rise.

And through the window in the wall

Come streaming in on sunlight wings

A million bright ambassadors of morning.

And no one sings me lullabyes

And no one makes me close my eyes

So I throw the windows wide

And call to you across the sky....

I could post probably a couple dozen floyd songs

NINE INCH NAILS LYRICS

"We're In This Together"

I've become impossible

holding on to when

when everything seemed to matter more

the two of us

all used and beaten up

watching fate as it flow down the path we

have chose

you and me

we're in this together now

none of them can stop us now

we will make it through somehow

you and me

if the world should break in two

until the very end of me

until the very end of you

awake to the sound as they peel apart the skin

they pick and they pull

trying to get their fingers in

well they've got to kill what we've found

well they've got to hate what we fear

well they've got to make it go away

well they've got to make it disappear

the farther I fall I'm beside you

as lost as I get I will find you

the deeper the wound I'm inside you

for ever and ever I'm a part of

you and me

we're in this together now

none of them can stop us now

we will make it through somehow

you and me

if the world should break in two

until the very end of me

until the very end of you

all that we were is gone we have to hold on

all that we were is gone we have to hold on

when all our hope is gone we have to hold on

all that we were is gone but we can hold on

you and me

we're in this together now

none of them can stop us now

we will make it through somehow

you and me

even after everything

you're the queen and I'm the king

nothing else means anything

And

NINE INCH NAILS LYRICS

"Right Where It Belongs"

See the animal in it's cage that you built

Are you sure what side you're on?

Better not look him too closely in the eye

Are you sure what side of the glass you are on?

See the safety of the life you have built

Everything where it belongs

Feel the hollowness inside of your heart

And it's all

Right where it belongs

[Chorus:]

What if everything around you

Isn't quite as it seems?

What if all the world you think you know

Is an elaborate dream?

And if you look at your reflection

Is it all you wanted to be?

What if you could look right through the cracks?

Would you find yourself

Find yourself afraid to see?

What if all the world's inside of your head

Just creations of your own?

Your devils and your gods

All the living and the dead

And you really are alone

You can live in this illusion

You can choose to believe

You keep looking but you can't find the woods

While you're hiding in the trees

[Chorus:]

What if everything around you

Isn't quite as it seems?

What if all the world you used to know

Is an elaborate dream?

And if you look at your reflection

Is it all you wanted to be?

What if you could look right through the cracks

Would you find yourself

Find yourself afraid to see?

Awesome lyrics...

Were in this together now (my favourite NIN song)

[iloveaxlmore]

well jim morrisson wrote some great lyrics, but i can't think of a specific song right now. i love the lyrics of californication, by the red hot chili peppers:

Psychic spies from China

Try to steal your mind's elation

Little girls from Sweden

Dream of silver screen quotations

And if you want these kind of dreams

It's Californication

It's the edge of the world

And all of western civilization

The sun may rise in the East

At least it settles in the final location

It's understood that Hollywood

sells Californication

Pay your surgeon very well

To break the spell of aging

Celebrity skin is this your chin

Or is that war your waging

First born unicorn

Hard core soft porn

Dream of Californication

Dream of Californication

Marry me girl be my fairy to the world

Be my very own constellation

A teenage bride with a baby inside

Getting high on information

And buy me a star on the boulevard

It's Californication

Space may be the final frontier

But it's made in a Hollywood basement

Cobain can you hear the spheres

Singing songs off station to station

And Alderon's not far away

It's Californication

Born and raised by those who praise

Control of population everybody's been there

and

I don't mean on vacation

Destruction leads to a very rough road

But it also breeds creation

And earthquakes are to a girl's guitar

They're just another good vibration

And tidal waves couldn't save the world

From Californication

Pay your surgeon very well

To break the spell of aging

Sicker than the rest

There is no test

But this is what you're craving

Stairway To Heaven is about hope according to Robert Plant. When asked about the woman in the song, Page responded " Julie Conlon"

Stairway

[Yamisonic]

Yeah, but I still don't get it! The lyrics are very strange. Wtf is a "bustle in your hedgerow" anyway?

EDIT: Ringo, how can you back up that?

I'm in the furniture trade

Got a new job today

But stick the cretin

On the number-three lathe

Went down the town

To a HM club

The sign had a cross

Through a couple well-dressed

They looked at my coat

They looked at my hair

An Easy Rider coot

Grabbed the edge of my coat

Said: 'You're too smart for here'

I said: 'I'll see the manager'

He was the manager

Eat y'self fitter

Up the stairs mister

Eat y'self fitter

Analytics have got

My type worked out

Analytics on me

The poison render

I grope about

And when I go out

My mind splits

My eyes doth hurt

The musical chairs

Have been swallowed up

By a cuddly group

Who land and rub off

Hoping that

Whatever it is

Will land and drop off

I met a hero of mine

I shook his hand

Got trapped in the door

Felt a fool, I tell ya

Charmed to meet ya

Eat y'self fitter

Up the stairs mister

Eat y'self fitter

Became a recluse

And bought a computer

Set it up in the home

Elusive big one

On the screen

Saw the Holy Ghost, I swear

On the screen

Where's the cursor?

Where's the eraser?

Where's the cursor?

Where's the eraser?

To tape on your vid. chip

How do you know the progs you miss

Are worse than those you single out?

And what'll you do when the rental's up?

And your bottom rack is full of vids

Of programs you will nay look at

The way they act is, oh, sheer delight

Cardboard copyright

Panic in Sudan

Panic in Wardour

Panic in Granadaland

Panic all over

By the wretched timesheeters

Of my delight

One starry night

The powers that be will have to meet

And have no choice but to...

Eat each other

I SEE YOU ON THE STREETS

YOU HIDE IN YOUR PACKS

YOU PUSH AND PUSH

AND NO ONE PUSHES BACK

IT'S TIME YOU OWN UP

TO THE THINGS YOU SAY

'CUZ JUDGE IS ON THE MOVE

AND WE'RE STARTING TODAY

I'M BRINGIN' IT DOWN

THIS HAMMER I'VE GOT

THIS IGNORANCE HAS GOT TO BE STOPPED

YOU WANT TO DISCRIMINATE

AND SHOW YOUR STUPIDITY

AGAINST PEOPLE WHO ARE EQUAL

TO YOU AND ME

IF YOU WANT A GREAT NATION

THEN WE ALL MUST BE FREE

AND IF YOU WON'T WISE UP

CONSIDER JUDGE YOUR ENEMY

A BEER, A JOINT LIKE A GUN AT YOUR HEAD

THE PRICE THAT YOU PAY IS THE BLOOD THAT YOU BLED

THE NEEDLE, THE TRACK MARK, YOU'RE SCARRED FOR LIFE

YOU'RE WEAK AND YOU'RE HURT,

AND YOU'RE GONNA LOSE THIS FIGHT

BECAUSE YOU DRINK IT AND YOU SMOKE IT

AND YOU SAY YOU FEEL FINE

AND YOU SNORT IT AND YOU SHOOT IT

AND NOW IT'S MELTED YOUR MIND

I'M BRINGIN' IT DOWN, THIS HAMMER I'VE GOT

THIS IGNORANCE HAS GOT TO BE STOPPED

I'M BRINGIN' IT DOWN, THE HAMMER'S ME AND YOU

STAY OFF THE TRACKS 'CUZ JUDGE IS COMING THROUGH

I really recommend these:

Fish On The Sand - George Harrison

I know you’re in the sun

I know you’re close to ev’ryone

At times it’s like you don’t have a hold on me

I see you in the love

I see you in the moon above

But I want to know that you’re not lost inside of me

You know I need you

You know I love you

If I’m not with you

I’m not so much of a man

I’m like a fish on the sand

You call me in the night (you call me in the night)

And hide behind the daylight

You’re blowing like a wind, you don’t let me see

You know I feel a pain (you know I feel a pain)

I’m tired of playing games with you

Though there’s nothing else I want that would set me free

You know I love you

You know I need you

If I can’t be with you

I’m not so much of a man

I’m a fish on the sand

No use to no one else, they’ve all dried up

Watching all our lives go by

I can’t believe you’d want to see me crying

I hold you in my heart (hold you in my heart)

I know that you’re a part of me

But it’s a must to know that you love me too

I look you in the eye (look you in the eye)

You’re swimming by my teardrops

But I want to know for sure that you’ll let me see

You know I want you

You know I need you

If I’m not with you

I’m not so much of a man

I’m like a fish on the sand

You know I need you

You know I love you

If I’m not with you

I’m not so much of a man

I’m a fish on the sand

Not so much of a man

More a fish on the sand

I love the "fish on the sand" thing

[Ringo]

Yeah, but I still don't get it! The lyrics are very strange. Wtf is a "bustle in your hedgerow" anyway?

EDIT: Ringo, how can you back up that?

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

"if theres a bustle in your hedgrow dont be alarmed now,

its just a spring clean for the may queen,

Yes there are two paths you can go by but in the long run

theres still time to change the raod your on."

it means if you're going through some hard times dont worry its just strengthening you for more. and by the two paths, you can buy the drugs and go on that path but the other path is always still open for you to follow.

Your head is hummin' and it won't go

In case you don't know, the piper's callin' you to join him

Dear lady, can you hear the wind blow

and did you know your stairway lies on the whisperin' wind

Hoh-oh-oh

Hes saying that the lady is confused and shes doing the wrong thing and she doesnt know it. and god is trying to lead her to reason. and all she hears is how good the drugs are and not the bad parts and she is making her stairway. this is the coolest song by the way

Edited August 8, 2005 by Ringo

[mr-fukaji]

You say you're scared, we're not to blame

'Cos mindless violence ain't our claim,

A new breed's here, we're gonna stay,

And break down all your shallow ways

(Chorus)

'Cos we are the new kids,

We've got our heads,

We'll keep on fighting,

'Til old ways are dead.

Clenched fists, black eyes!

Clenched fists, black eyes!

We're aiming for a different goal,

Succeeding where the hippies failed.

But one thing's sure and you can bet,

We'll be more than a drugged-out threat!

(Chorus)

'Cos we are the new kids,

We've got our heads,

We'll keep on fighting,

'Til old ways are dead.

Clenched fists, black eyes!

Clenched fists, black eyes!

[ssiscool]

FADE TO BLACK

Life it seems, will fade away

Drifting further every day

Getting lost within myself

Nothing matters no one else

I have lost the will to live

Simply nothing more to give

There is nothing more for me

Need the end to set me free

Things are not what they used to be

Missing one inside of me

Deathly lost, this can’t be real

Cannot stand this hell I feel

Emptiness is filling me

To the point of agony

Growing darkness taking dawn

I was me, but now he’s gone

No one but me can save myself, but it’s too late

Now I can’t think, think why I should even try

Yesterday seems as though it never existed

Death greets me warm, now I will just say good-bye

[SpUd_Jr]

some more

The Beatles - A Day in the life

I read the news today oh boy

About a lucky man who made the grade

And though the news was rather sad

Well I just had to laugh

I saw the photograph

He blew his mind out in a car

He didn’t notice that the lights had changed

A crowd of people stood and stared

They’d seen his face before

Nobody was really sure

If he was from the House of Lords.

I saw a film today oh boy

The English Army had just won the war

A crowd of people turned away

But I just had to look

Having read the book.

I’d love to turn you on

Woke up, got out of bed,

Dragged a comb across my head

Found my way downstairs and drank a cup,

And looking up I noticed I was late.

Found my coat and grabbed my hat

Made the bus in seconds flat

Found my way upstairs and had a smoke,

And somebody spoke and I went into a dream

I heard the news today oh boy

Four thousand holes in Blackburn, Lancashire

And though the holes were rather small

They had to count them all

Not they know how many holes it takes

To fill the Albert Hall.

I’d love to turn you on.

and Pink Floyd - Dogs (some of floyds darkest lyrics i think)

You gotta be crazy, you gotta have a real need.

You gotta sleep on your toes, and when you're on the street,

You gotta be able to pick out the easy meat with your eyes closed.

And then moving in silently, down wind and out of sight,

You gotta strike when the moment is right without thinking.

And after a while, you can work on points for style.

Like the club tie, and the firm handshake,

A certain look in the eye and an easy smile.

You have to be trusted by the people that you lie to,

So that when they turn their backs on you,

You'll get the chance to put the knife in.

You gotta keep one eye looking over your shoulder.

You know it's going to get harder, and harder, and harder as you

get older.

And in the end you'll pack up and fly down south,

Hide your head in the sand,

Just another sad old man,

All alone and dying of cancer.

And when you loose control, you'll reap the harvest you have sown.

And as the fear grows, the bad blood slows and turns to stone.

And it's too late to lose the weight you used to need to throw

around.

So have a good drown, as you go down, all alone,

Dragged down by the stone.

I gotta admit that I'm a little bit confused.

Sometimes it seems to me as if I'm just being used.

Gotta stay awake, gotta try and shake off this creeping malaise.

If I don't stand my own ground, how can I find my way out of this

maze?

Deaf, dumb, and blind, you just keep on pretending

That everyone's expendable and no-one has a real friend.

And it seems to you the thing to do would be to isolate the winner

And everything's done under the sun,

And you believe at heart, everyone's a killer.

Who was born in a house full of pain.

Who was trained not to spit in the fan.

Who was told what to do by the man.

Who was broken by trained personnel.

Who was fitted with collar and chain.

Who was given a pat on the back.

Who was breaking away from the pack.

Who was only a stranger at home.

Who was ground down in the end.

Who was found dead on the phone.

Who was dragged down by the stone.

[T Patten]

Blur's Coffee & Tv has blinding lyrics which makes it one of my fave songs of all time...

[killall]

i am...terrified of all things

frightened of the dark...i am

you are...taller than a montain

deeper than the sea....you are

hold me
