Song Lyrics

[Magrus]

@frogus23, Thanks! I'll do that. It definately had a blues feel to it, even with Nirvana doing it.

@ Darth Zenemij, I love old Korn. I saw his little brother play with Adema two years back and you really can see a resemblance in personality from how Jonathon Davis rubbed off on him. Just found it funny noticing that after hearing this song years ago.

I haven't listened to this album since it came out. Normally, I try avoiding anything that shows up on the pop charts, but I can really, really relate to this stuff. Especially this song.

"Fine Again" by Seether, Disclaimer album

It seems like every day’s the same
and I’m left to discover on my own
It seems like everything is gray
and there’s no color to behold
They say it’s over and I’m fine again, yeah
Try to stay sober feels like I’m dying here

And I am aware now of how
everything’s gonna be fine one day
Too late, I’m in hell I am prepared now,
seems everyone’s gonna be fine
One day too late, just as well

I feel the dream in me expire
and there’s no one left to blame it on
I hear you label me a liar
‘cause I can’t seem to get this through
You say it’s over, I can sigh again, yeah
Why try to stay sober when I’m dying here

And I am aware now of how
everything’s gonna be fine one day
Too late, I’m in hell
I am prepared now,
seems everyone’s gonna be fine
One day too late; just as well

And I’m not scared now.
I must assure you,
you’re never gonna get away
And I’m not scared now.
And I’m not scared now. No…

I am aware now of how
everything’s gonna be fine one day
Too late, I’m in hell
I am prepared now
seems everyone’s gonna be fine
One day too late, just as well
I am prepared now,
seems everything’s gonna be fine for me
For me; for myself.
For me, for me, for myself
For me, for me, for myself

This song is an apt description of the mindset I've gone back and forth with on two of my ex's over the past year and a half or so. I got over it with one, the newer one though, I still occasionally end up like this when I remember some of the stuff that went on.

"Needles"

I never seem to find a reason
to let you in again, or forgive you
I’m sick of feeling like I need you
knowing I never did, but I miss you
Taking and breaking and hating
I remember all you said to me now
Faking, forsaking and failing
my memories are all stained again

Let me get inside your head
Let me show you I’m prepared
Let me stick my needles in
And let me hurt you again

I never reach my indecision
to let you see again all I give you
I’m sick of feeding your attention,
knowing I never did. I distress you
Taking and breaking and hating
I remember all you said to me now
Faking, forsaking and failing
my memories are all stained again

Let me get inside your head
Let me show you I’m prepared
Let me stick my needles in
And let me hurt you again

<expletive deleted> you for killing me
Me.
<expletive deleted> you for killing me
Me.

Yeah. Let me get inside your head
Let me show you I’m prepared
Let me stick my needles in
And let me hurt you again
Again.

This one, is why I pulled the album out. Despite all of the problems my last ex and I had, we really did love each other and simple circumstances caused the majority of our problems. I got word from Rome this past weekend she'd died and this song just kind of came back to me and I wanted to find it. I really don't know why THIS song came to me, there's better songs that express the situation I have yet it did. At least she died where she planned on it.

"Broken"

I wanted you to know I love the way you laugh
I wanna hold you high and steal your pain away
I keep your photograph and I know it serves me well
I wanna hold you high and steal your pain

‘Cause I’m broken when I’m lonesome
And I don’t feel right when you’re gone away

You've gone away, you don't feel me, anymore

The worst is over now and we can breathe again
I wanna hold you high, you steal my pain away
There’s so much left to learn, and no one left to fight
I wanna hold you high and steal your pain

[x2]
‘Cause I’m broken when I’m open
And I don’t feel like I am strong enough
‘Cause I’m broken when I’m lonesome
And I don’t feel right when you’re gone away

'Cause I'm broken when I'm lonesome
And I don't feel right when you're gone away

You've gone away
You don't feel me here anymore

[Kipi]

No lyrics from band I like most . Or, at least I didn't saw any. Well, it's fixed quickly

Slaying the Dreamer by Nightwish

I'm a priest for the poorest sacrifice
I'm but a raft in a sea of sorrow and greed
You bathed in my wine
Drank from my cup, mocked my rhyme
Your slit tongues licked my aching wounds

Put a stake through my heart!
And drag me into sunlight
So awake for your greed
As you're slaying the dreamer

Swansong for the Wish of Night
God it hurts, give a name to the pain
Our primrose path to hell is growing weed

Blame me, it's me
Coward, a good-for-nothing scapegoat
Dumb kid, living a dream
Romantic only on paper

Tell me why you took all that was mine!
Stay as you lay - don't lead me astray!

Wake up, mow the weed
You'd be nothing without me
Take my life if you have the heart to die

You bastards tainted my tool
Raped my words, played me a fool
Gather your precious glitter and leave me be
The Great Ones are all dead
And I'm tired, too

I truly hate you all!

[Denethorn]

The Meat Puppets - Lake Of Fire
Some say religious, some say anti-church... I just think its a cool song

Chorus:
Where do bad folks go when they die?
They don't go to heaven where the angels fly.
They go to a Lake of Fire and fry,
You won't see em' again till the 4th of July.

I knew a lady, who came from Duluth,
Got bit by a dog with a rabid tooth.
She went to her grave just a little too soon
And she flew away howling on the yellow moon


(Chorus)

People cry, people moan
they look for a dry place to call their own.
Try to find somewhere to rest their bones,
while the angels and the devils try and make em' their own


(Chorus)

[arno_v]

Some say religious, some say anti-church... I just think its a cool song

Some say Nirvana... I only knew this song from the covor Nirvana did on Unplugged in New York. I do know Plateau from the Meat Puppets though, and ofcourse Nirvana's version of it.

[Denethorn]

Yeh I don't mind the Nirvana version, a bit more edgy than the Meat Puppets... but I generally prefer the originals to covers

Here's another classic Lenny Kravitz - Are You Gonna Go My Way

I was born long ago
I am the chosen I’m the one
I have come to save the day
And I won’t leave until I’m done
So that’s why you’ve got to try
You got to breath and have some fun
Though I’m not paid I play this game
And I won’t stop until I’m done

But what I really want to know is
Are you gonna go my way ?
And I got to got to know

I don’t know why we always cry
This we must leave and get undone
We must engage and rearrange
And turn this planet back to one
So tell me why we got to die
And kill each other one by one
We’ve got to love and rub-a-dub
We’ve got to dance and be in love

But what I really want to know is
Are you gonna go my way ?
And I got to got to know

Are you gonna go my way ?
’cause baby I got to know, yeah

[Fiberfar]

Push - Ronnie James Dio

You've ridden on a carousel
So you know the feeling
As the ring slips through your fingers

Sometimes you justify it
But there's the sword
And you're bleeding once again

Before you're in a corner
Can't crawl away
Here's a way to save you

You gotta push
Get out of my way and push
You can turn the wheel
Push
One more push

You're master of the broken heart
And so you know the feeling
As your soul starts going under
Sometimes you rectify it
Then out of the blue
The hammer falls again

Before you're in the water
Can't sail away
Here's a way to save you

You gotta push
Break the body down
Oh push
Out of my way I'll push
You better push

You gotta push
Hands against the wall
And push
Out of my way we'll push
You can turn the wheel
Go on and push
Push
Push
Push
Push

Saw STZA singing song live. Leftover Crack: Born to Die

Born to die and you get to sit and watch yer TV set
believe the lies before yer eyes credit cards and apple pies
50 stars to blind yer eyes 13 stripes to hypnotize
free thought is gone you'll never see yer just a pawn
you'll die tomorrow but today yer empty dreams just fade away
evaporate, dissolve to hate while you survive and wait
until a lifeless fate yer stupid lives just piddle on
you slave fer others and then your gone I just can't escape the lying
the moment we are born we're dying it's such an ugly sight

we have no rights
we have no future
no reasons why
just born to die

yer dumb self can't appreciate the freedom in my thought
the weak sense of autonomy when i'm drinking in my squat
that empty void was never filled but the dreams of others
you helped kill you'll justify, we'll linger on
but don't ya know that dreams all die the day your born

we have no god's
there's only ignorant bliss
no reasons why
we're born to die

gone to bed, god is dead
lies and truth are in my head
your history, society, reformity
it isn't me, it's all on you
reality, it's what ya do
it's what ya take in the truth the lies
the freedom dies, the mind it numbs, the spirit breaks
all our rights it kills our future
our reasons why
we're born to die
we're born to die

[Denethorn]

Magrus' thread about responding to others in danger got me listening to this song. It has a very clear and beautiful message in it:

Gerry Rafferty - Wise As A Serpent

Well we sit in empty rooms and dream our lives away
While the spirits come and go without a sound
And just like you and me, they're tryin' to find a way, find a way, find a way home.

There's a full moon in the sky, but that don't worry me
I don't ever hang my soul out on the line
When the witchin' hour comes, I always fly away, fly away, fly away home.

There's a light in the city, that comes down from above
Leavin' you as wise as a serpent, harmless as a dove
Don't blow your tomorrows, don't throw away your love
You've got to be as wise as a serpent, harmless as a dove.

Now you once asked me why we can't communicate
But it doesn't always pay to tell the truth
If I told you right now, you'd only run away, run away, run away home

So we sit in empty rooms and dream our lives away
While the spirits come and go without a sound
Yeah just like you and me, they're tryin' to find a way, find a way, find a way home.

There's a light in the city, that comes down from above
Leavin' you as wise as a serpent, harmless as a dove
Don't blow your tomorrows, don't throw away your love
You've got to be as wise as a serpent, harmless as a dove.

[Magrus]

I'm good and drunk and this fits my thought process fairly well atm.

10. Overrun by Vision of Disorder

This is killing me,
Rips me inside and out.
They talking, they talking,
On how I wore you out.

[Chorus:]
I've been overrun
Holding on too long.
So Sorry that I couldn't be the person,
You wanted me to be.

Now we're black and white.
Share from the other side.
You crying, you crying.
You should have known from the start.

[Chorus:]
I've been overrun
Holding on too long.
So Sorry that I couldn't be the person,
You wanted me to be.

Burn the memories.
Photograph to flames.
You so lonely tonight.

[Chorus:]
I've been overrun
Holding on too long.
So Sorry that I couldn't be the person,
You wanted me to be.

All these years have been wasted.
Rip it out.

This one too, despite the jesus stuff. Screw that.

13. Walking The Line

You walk under twilight.
Reborn into moonlight.
So easily we're chosen.
So easily unwoven.

Jesus came that morning.
Jesus gave no warning.
I feel strange.
I don't remember anything.

[Chorus:]
I've been walking the line.

Jesus came that morning.
Jesus gave no warning.
I feel strange.
I don't remember anything.

[Chorus:]
I've been walking the line.

We all transcend,
To a bitter end.
To silent grooves.

To other lives,
Under skies of granite stone.

Mrow!

[Jaypee]

Winter - Servant of the Warsmen

Rise!

No shadows, and expectations
Defiance, unspoken truth
Doom-filled ignorance and lust
Betrayal of sacred prophecies

Invasion of hurt
Penetration of Sensitivity
What are my secret fears
Red is the rain of tears

Come back dear dreams
Tales of old
In this sleep
Servant of the warsmen

Rise!

Screams of passion through the dark
Ignored by pain and suffering
Gloomy paths decorate the halls of darkness

Burning hate
Flesh
Heavenlight
Nevermore

Rising conqueror
Forbidden truth
Sanctify my fortress

Come back dear dreams
Tales of old
In this sleep
Servant of the warsmen

Rise!

[Magrus]

I love those lyrics... wonderful.

[Galuf the Dwarf]

Now, light our darkest hour!

Here's one song that I can remember from years ago, and I'd say that there's at least one other person in this world that could be empowered by it.

Stan Bush - The Touch
(Originally in the soundtrack for 'Transformers: The Movie'; 1986)

You got the touch
You got the power

After all is said and done
You've never walked, you've never run,
You're a winner

You got the moves, you know the streets
Break the rules, take the heat
You're nobody's fool

You're at your best when when the goin' gets rough
You've been put to the test, but it's never enough

You got the touch
You got the power

When all hell's breakin' loose
You'll be riding the eye of the storm

You got the heart
You got the motion

You know that when things get too tough
You got the touch

You never bend, you never break
You seem to know just what it takes
You're a fighter

It's in the blood, it's in the will
It's in the mighty hands of steel
When you're standin' your ground

And you never get hit when your back's to the wall
Gonna fight to the end and you're takin' it all

You got the touch
You got the power

When all hell's breakin' loose
You'll be riding the eye of the storm

You got the heart
You got the motion

You know that when things get too tough
You got the touch

You're fightin' fire with fire
You know you got the touch

You're at your best when when the road gets rough
You've been put to the test, but it's never enough

You got the touch
You got the power

You got the touch
You got the power

[Fiberfar]

FIRE & ICE - Yngwie Malmsteen

Every day is like a set up race
And the world is still a lonely place.
To be or not to be
Is this the final quiz?
A flash in the pan goodbye
Still shooting for the open sky.

Chorus:
Between the devil and the deep blue sea
I cannot find a compromise.
It's all just treason
They bring me down with their lies
Don't know the reason
My life is fire and ice.

Tomorrow will be different
All you need is just some confidence
I dream of being a warrior
So far beyond.
There's a voice that whispers I can fail
I believe it's just a trick of the tail.

Chorus:
Between the devil and the deep blue sea
There is no way, no compromise
It's all just treason
They bring me down with their lies
Don't know the reason
My life is fire and ice.

[Grimar]

Dream Theater-Caught in a Web

Silence disguised
I watch you
Show me the hurt
that haunts you
would you despise the thrill
If all you hide were mine?

I can't hold on any longer
These feelings keep growing stronger
Echoes that deafen the mind
will bury my voice in their wake

Caught in a Web
Removed from the world
Hanging on by a thread
Spinning the lies
devised in my head

I've seen the path
the one you take
shows the truth
for you to make
This turn of phrase
we might not see
is the thirst of desire
found so easily

Try to push me 'round
the world some more
And make me live in fear
I bare all that I am
made of now
Attractive I don't care
'Cause even when I danced with life
no one was there to share

Does this voice the wounds of your soul?
Does this voice the wounds of your soul?

Caught in a Web
Removed from the world
Hanging on by a thread
Spinning the lies
devised in my head

Tried to live the life
you live and saw
It doesn't work for me
I bare all that I am
made of now
Attractive, I can't be
Inside the Dance of Life is one
I'll never hold to me

You can't heal the wounds of my soul.
You can't heal the wounds of my soul.

Caught in a Web
Removed from the world
Hanging on by a thread
Spinning the lies
devised in my head

Caught in a Web
Refused by the world
Hanging on by a thread
Spinning a cage
Denied and misread

[Grimar]

Rhapsody-Gargoyles, Angels of Darkness

The prophet told of loud thunders quaking the surface of earth
when the black raven would have turned victim of wonderful spells
He would have become a white swan born from the darklands of sin
Neither would Aresius have believed what was now changing in him
Swan...prince of the magic lake...Dargor's your name

Gargoyles, fly
Gargoyles, rise
Gargoyles, fly high!
Angeli di pietra mistica
Ladri d'anime fieri volano

Another mess of vampires, masquerade of sadistic pride
He could not endure these cruel games
Against him who once spared its life
He realized so not too late to be really far from his king
Far from his infinite blood thirst, too far to call them right for him
Rise...fly high and steal his soul...angels of stone

Gargoyles, fly
Gargoyles, rise
Gargoyles, fly high!
Angeli di pietra mistica
Ladri d'anime fieri volano

Ti invoco o terra...colora il mio nero...
Con fiera lealta' io giuro sincero...
Tra anime morte e caos immenso
A Gaia sovrana l'amore piu' intenso...io Dargor a te...

Gargoyles, oh my brother gargoyles
Rise now, rise for his soul

(II. Exotic Interlude)

(Instrumental)

(III. And the Legend Ends)

Dargor, do it...it must be done
Free your rage and light your soul
It's Gaia's call

The powerful energies of the furthest secret cosmos heard
So the prayer of our mother Gaia, the supreme spirit
Who gave us the miracle of life...and her dark son breathed new life
The power of the dragonflame was realizing what had seemed to be impossible

And this is then the epic end
Of the legendary tale
Of the one who found the light
And the dragonflame inside
Of the tragic rain of a thousand flames
Of the town's defenders who faced pain
Of symphonies of enchanted lands
Of whispers of love and hate

The dawn of victory can breathe in the wind
And this would mean the great rebirth
Reborn, the one who's giving his life
The towns lying on the ground
Be one (Be one!) of us (of us!) and
Act as all the prophecies want
To mountains and valleys, to fire and snow,
To sun, moon and wisdom rise your soul
It's the call!

Oh no, oh god, oh god no
What is happening?

Angeli di pietra mistica
Ladri d'anime fieri volano
Angeli di pietra mistica
Ladri d'anime fieri volano

Oh, god, my god...
It happened...it happened!

Dargor mortally struck the queen of the dead and called the mighty gargoyles against the legions of darkness
He pushed Akron into the hands of the nordic warrior, now a dying victim of terrible tortures
The chosen one let himself fall into the deep marshes constraining the black king, with the emerald sword again in his hands, not to move
They became food for the snakes of the abyss
But this sacrifice had a terrific and great effect and Akron's death meant the victory on the evil forces of abyss...once...forever
Remember, proud brothers...everything is possible
When you let the mystic power of the dragonflame burn in your heart...believe it...it's the dragonflame!

Tenebra, tenebra...domina!
Tenebra, tenebra...danna me!
Let me see his face
Furia cieca, caos in me
Demoni
Lead me to your horned beast named king
I will call my fire, air, earth
The oceans' waters...to stop inferno's breath!
Tenebra, tenebra...domina!
Tenebra, tenebra...danna me!
Tenebra...libera me!

[Fiberfar]

Aces High - Iron Maiden

There goes the siren that warns of the air raid
Then comes the sound of the guns sending flak
Out for the scramble we've got to get airborne
Got to get up for the coming attack.

Jump in the c0ckpit and start up the engines
Remove all the wheelblocks there's no time to waste
Gathering speed as we head down the runway
Gotta get airborne before it's too late.

Running, scrambling, flying
Rolling, turning, diving, going in again
Run, live to fly, fly to live, do or die
Run, live to fly, fly to live. Aces high.

Move in to fire at the mainstream of bombers
Let off a sharp burst and then turn away
Roll over, spin round and come in behind them
Move to their blindsides and firing again.

Bandits at 8 O'clock move in behind us
Ten ME-109's out of the sun
Ascending and turning our spitfires to face them
Heading straight for them I press down my guns

Rolling, turning, diving
Rolling, turning, diving, going in again
Run, live to fly, fly to live, do or die
Run, live to fly, fly to live, Aces high.

EDIT: OMG... the filter edited my tekst... oh well.... better use 0 instead of o

[Galuf the Dwarf]

With all the past and present talk of things like cancer and (especially with the recent thread) HIV/AIDS I hear/read, I thought a song James Hetfield wrote about his mother's fatal cancer would be somewhat fitting. No matter how hard humans try to cure themselves, sometimes it just doesn't work.

Metallica - Until it Sleeps

Where do I take this pain of mine
I run, but it stays right my side

So tear me open, pour me out
There's things inside that scream and shout
And the pain still hates me
So hold me, until it sleeps

Just like the curse, just like the stray
You feed it once, and now it stays

So tear me open, but beware
There's things inside without a care
And the dirt still stains me
So wash me, until I'm clean

It grips you, so hold me
It stains you, so hold me
It hates you, so hold me
It holds you, so hold me

Until it sleeps *repeated by other band members*

So tell me why you've choosen me
Don't want your grip, don't want your greed

I'll tear me open, make you gone
No more can you hurt anyone
And the fear still shakes me
So hold me, until it sleeps

I don't want it
I don't want it
want it
want it
want it
want it
want it

So tear me open, but beware
The things inside without a care
And the dirt still stains me
So wash me, 'till I'm clean...

I'll tear me open, make you gone
No longer will you hurt anyone
And the fear still shapes me
So hold me, until it sleeps...

Until it sleeps*repeated like above, with additional repeats by James Hetfield himself*...

[Jaypee]

I'm also going to submit to the power metal feel of this topic and decided to post some classic metal lyrics. It gots Dio too. I'm an avid fan of heavy metal, but I've never got the idea of power metal (in fact, I hate it), so I also decided to post again some rare metal lyrics also.


Black Sabbath - Heaven and hell

Sing me a song, you're a singer
Do me a wrong, you're a bringer of evil
The Devil is never a maker
The less that you give, you're a taker
So it's on and on and on, it's Heaven and Hell, oh well
The lover of life's not a sinner
The ending is just a beginner
The closer you get to the meaning
the sooner you'll know that you're dreaming

So it's on and on and on, oh it's on and on and on
It goes on and on and on, Heaven and Hell

I can tell, fool, fool!
Well if it seems to be real, it's illusion
For every moment of truth, there's confusion in life
Love can be seen as the answer, but nobody bleeds for the dancer
And it's on and on, on and on and on....

They say that life's a carousel
Spinning fast, you've got to ride it well
The world is full of Kings and Queens
Who blind your eyes and steal your dreams

It's Heaven and Hell, oh well
And they'll tell you black is really white
The moon is just the sun at night
And when you walk in golden halls
You get to keep the gold that falls
It's Heaven and Hell, oh no!

Fool, fool!
You've got to bleed for the dancer!
Fool, fool!
Look for the answer!
Fool, fool, fool!

Babylon Whores - Hand of Glory

Ashen the world creates itself
Up the branches down the roots
Pecked at by birds
By worms gnawed
At the crossroads
By the graves among the rowan trees
Nailed white as ivory
With skulls that grin amidst the rot

For strange are these woods to fare
Stranger the fruit they bear

Oh hang me high
Upon that tree
For all the secrets to find me
As ravens' claws
As eagles' bills
As Wotan's eyes upon the hills
Oh ten I have of fingers fine
For all the evil's work in the night
Oh baby I will grow for you from a tree

Burning with glory!

Given to trolls and ogre broods
Days will drown in twilight's gloom
Where black dogs howl
Pulling up mandragore
Chained to the ash forever more
Deaf to the world's grey roar
Digging up treasures vile and foul

Eye for an eye for a rune
Drawing down the waning moon
Howled at by all wolves
Ensnared 'til the day of doom

So hang me high
Upon that tree
For all the secrets to find me
Asravens' claws
As eagles' bills
As Wotan's eyes upon the hills
Oh ten I have of fingers fine
For all the evil's work in the night
Oh baby I will grow for you from a tree

Burning with glory!

All crooks and ghouls who understand
Cherish the work of idle hands
All of the pages turned
All of the treasures yearned
All of the fingers burned

Burning with Glory!

@Fib thats the third time someone posted AH

Bruce D!ckinson-Book of Thel


The mark is on you now
The furnace sealed inside your head
Melting from de inside now
Waxy tears run down your face
The whore that never told her tale
Relives it every night with you
Far off stands the lamb and waits
For the wolf to come and endits life

Stand inside the temple as the book of thel is opening
The priestess stands before you
Offering her hand out rising

Come the dawning of the dead
Infamine and in war
Now the harlot womb of death
Spits out its srotten core

Serpent on the altar now
Has wrapped itself around your spine
So you look into its mouth
And you kiss the pearly fangs divine
Happy that your end is swift
The weeping virgin cries in bliss
The snake and priestess they are one
The veil of flesh is ripped undone

Standing inside the temple as the book of thel is opening
The priestess stands before you
Offering hand out rising

Come the dawning of the dead
Infamine and in war
Now the harlot womb of death
Spits out its srotten core
By the pricking of my thumbs
Something wicked this way comes
And when sleep takes you tonight
Will you wake to see the light?

The burning sweat of poison tears
The river flowing with red blood
The cradle robbing hand of death
Caresses every dreaming head
Waiting for the marriage hearse
To take yout to the funeral pyre
So you burn the family tree
The generations burnig higher

Stand inside the temple as the book of thel is opening
the priestess ands before you
Offering her hand out, rising

Come the dawning of the dead
Infamine and in war
Now harlot womb of death
Spits out its rotten core
by the pricking of my thumbs
Something wicked this way comes
and when sleep takes you tonight
Will you wake to see the light?
By the dawning of the dead
By the dawning of the dead
