Okay...I'm not sure how well this is gonna go but I like threads like this...just post lyrics.. :D

 

Uno - Muse

 

This means nothing to me

'Cause you are nothing to me

And it means nothing to me

That you blew this away

 

'Cause you could have been number one

If you only found the time

And you could have ruled the whole world

If you had the chance

 

You could have been number one

And you could have ruled the whole world

And we could have had so much fun

But you blew it away

 

You're still nothing to me

And this is nothing to me

And you don't know what you've done

But I'll give you a clue

 

You could have been number one

If you only had the chance

And you could have ruled the whole world

If you had the time

 

You could have been number one

And you could have ruled the whole world

And we could have had so much fun

But you blew it away

 

You could have been number one

And you could have ruled the whole world

And we could have had so much fun

But you blew it away

I had a feeling this wouldn't go to well (besides the fact I'm the only one here right now) I'll continue all the same...

 

Placebo - Slave To The Wage

 

Run away from all your boredom

Run away from all your whoredom and wave

Your worries, and cares, goodbye

All it takes is one decision

A lot of guts, a little vision to wave

Your worries, and cares goodbye

 

It's a maze for rats to try [x2]

It's a race, a race for rats

A race for rats to die

It's a race, a race for rats

A race for rats to die

 

Sick and tired of Maggie's farm

She's a bitch, with broken arms to wave

Your worries, and cares, goodbye

 

It's a maze for rats to try [x2]

It's a race, a race for rats

A race for rats to die

It's a race, a race for rats

A race for rats to die [x3]

Burn away

Run away [repeat]

ooooohhh.... just for the hell of it.

 

Phantom Planet- Lonely Day

I could tell from the minute I woke up

It was going to be a lonely lonely

lonely lonely day.

Rise and shine rub the sleep out of my eyes

And try to tell myself I can't

go back to bed

It's gonna be a lonely lonely lonely lonely day.

Even though the sun is shining down on me and

I should feel about as happy as can be

I just got here and I already want to leave

It's gonna be a lonely lonely lonely lonely day

 

Everybody knows that something's wrong

But nobody knows what's going on

We all sing the same old song

When you want it all to go away

It's shaping up to be a lonely day

 

I could tell from the minute I woke up

it was going to be a lonely lonely lonely lonely day.

YAY!! Phantom Planet!! Woo-hoo!! :D

hehe fav. song!

Here's my PP song: I really like these lyrics.

 

Hey Now Girl

 

Well let me tell you I have seen a monster age of seventeen

Who'll let you in to kick you out and knows what love is "all about"

Hey now girl I see you walking by

And long ago you used to stop and talk now you just wink your eye

and I'm surprised you look all grown up

A champagne glass next to a paper cup

I stopped you just to say it

Hey now girl

Her tongue is black haven't you heard her mutter those three dirty words

For all those foolish boys to hear like a siren bringing ships so near

Hey now girl I see you walking by

And I remember how you used to smile or how hard you used to try

It's in your eyes and I'm in a trance

A winter chill next to a spring romance

I stopped you just to say it

Hey now girl

WOOHOO...

oh yea, I like nobody's fault too!..

 

Phantom Planet - Nobody's Fault

Everything is ok everything is fine

I give you everything you ask for don't be so unkind

Well every time you're mad about every little thing

But it's too soon to pull out or pull out that wedding ring

I'm so ready I'm not ready

This little boy is running right back home

I guess it's nobody's fault now but my own

Never had the patience never had the time

Never knew that working hard was such a crime

Well I thought I could make you happy down the line

But I guess it's been over since you heard This Heart of Mine

On your mark get set go

This little boy is running right back home

I guess it's nobody's fault now but my own

OLP - The Wonderful Futre

 

She builds her own satellite

From an old rusted chair

This old world behind

And the things that she cares

Maybe she's gone

But it won't be for long what do i know?

Maybe she's found what we all dream about

She's beautiful and wonderful

I can't compare

It's wonderful

It's not that fair

 

She builds a strong alibi

From the future that's here

She needs to know I'm alive

And that I'm flesh and I tear

She's beautiful

I always post these lyrics. I think they're really great.

 

 

"Anna Begins"

 

My friend assures me "it's all or nothing"

I am not worried- I am not overly concerned

My friend implores me " for one time only,

make an exception." I am not not worried

Wrap her up in a package of lies

Send her off to a coconut island

I am not worried - I am not overly concerned

with the status of my emotions

"oh", She says, "were changing."

But were always changing

It does not bother me to say this isn't love

Because if you don't want to talk about it then it isn't love

and I guess I'm going to have to live that

but, I'm sure there's something in a shade of gray

or something in between

and I can always change my name if that's what you mean

My friend assures me "it's all or nothing`

But I am not really worried

I am not overly concerned

You try to tell your self the things you try tell your self to make

yourself forget

to make your self forget

I am not worried

"If it's love" she said, "then were gonna have to think about the

consequences"

She can't stop shaking and I can t stop touching her and.....

This time when kindness falls like rain

It washes her away and Anna begins to change her mind

"these seconds when I'm shaking leave me shuddering

for days" she says.

And I'm not ready for this sort of thing

But I'm not gonna break

And I'm not going to worry about it anymore

I'm not gonna bend. And I'm not gonna break and

I'm not gonna worry about it anymore

It seems like I should say "as long as this is love..."

But it's not all that easy so maybe I should just

snap her up in a butterfly net-

Pin her down on a photograph album

I am not worried

I've done this sort of thing before

But then I start to think about the consequences

Because I don't get no sleep in a quiet room and...

The time when kindness falls like rain

It washes me away and Anna begins change my mind

And every time she sneezes I believe it's love

and oh lord.... I'm not ready for this sort of thing

She s talking in her sleep-it s keeping me awake

And Anna begins to toss and turn

And every word is nonsense but I understand and and

oh lord. I m not ready for this sort of thing

Her kindness bangs a gong

It's moving me along and Anna begins to fade away

It s chasing me away.

She dissappears, and oh lord I'm not ready for this sort of thing

I love this song!

 

Ether Song by Turin Brakes

 

 

In the ether, in the ether's air

Would you be there? Would you be my friend?

In the morning, in the morning rain,

In the binary, of a data stream,

 

On an airplane,

On a radio,

All around me,

In the Ether's flow

 

Under an orange sun,

Running from what I've become oh...

What am I running from?

 

You can't take a photograph of it at night,

It lives in the code of a fire fly buzzing,

It vibrates through brickwalls, keeping their time,

It cuddles the creeping chaos coming,

 

I see it more clearly than ever before,

I'm in its invisible river aflowing,

Through everything I've ever been through before,

Heads up, something's really hap - e - ning...

Okay, this song and video just makes me laugh - and gets stuck in my head, too.

 

United States Of Whatever - Liam Lynch

 

I went down to the beach and saw Kiki

She was, like, all "ehhhh"

And I was, like, "whatever!"

 

Then this chick comes up to me and she's all, like,

"Hey, aren't you that dude?"

And I'm, like, "yeah, whatever!"

 

So later I'm at the pool hall

And this girl comes up

And she's, like, "awww"

And I'm, like, "yeah, whatever!"

 

Cuz this is my

United States of Whatever!

And this is my

United States of Whatever!

And this is my

United States of Whatever!

 

And then it's three A.M.

And I'm on the corner, wearing my leather

This dude comes up and he's, like, "hey, punk!"

I'm, like, "yeah, whatever!"

 

Then I'm throwing dice in the alley

Officer Leroy comes up and is, like,

"Hey, I thought I told you..."

And I'm, like, "yeah, whatever!"

 

And then up comes Zafo

I'm, like, "yo, Zafo. What's up?"

He's, like, "nothin'"

And I'm, like, "that's cool."

 

Cuz this is my

United States of Whatever!

And this is my

United States of Whatever!

"Make it Happen" by Little Nemo

 

Every morning the rain keeps falling

Clouded head always lasts for hours and hours

in the morning showers

 

In the clearing the dreams start calling

its that time in my life when I need to see you

but I can't see you

 

Do my eyes deceive me?

Call me oblivious, cause I just cant see

 

All the answers are lost in the sky

and everyone is telling me to listen to my own advice

 

...and I hope I make it happen just in time...

Never Is A Promise - Fiona Apple

 

You'll never see

The courage I know

Its colors' richness won't

Appear within your view

I'll never glow

The way that you glow

Your presence dominates

The judgements made on you

But as the scenery grows

I see in different lights

The shades and shadows

Undulate in my perception

My feelings swell and stretch

I see from greater heights

I understand what I am still

Too proud to mention

To you

 

You'll say you understand

But you don't understand

You'll say you'd never

Give up seeing eye to eye

But never is a promise

And you can't afford to lie

 

You'll never touch

These things that I hold

The skin of my emotions

Lies beneath my own

You'll never feel

The heat of this soul

My fever burns me deeper

Than I've ever shown

To you

 

You'll say

Don't fear your dreams

It's easier than it seems

You'll say you'd never

Let me fall from hopes so high

But never is a promise

And you can't afford to lie

 

You'll never live

The life that I live

I'll never live the life

That wakes me in the night

You'll never hear

The message I give

Youy'll say it looks as though

I might give up this fight

 

But as the scenery grows

I see in different lights

The shades and shadows

Undulate in my perception

My feelings swell and stretch

I see from greater heights

I realise what I am now

Too smart to mention

To you

 

You'll say you understand

You'll never understand

I'll say I'll never wake up

Knowing how or why

I don't know what

To believe in

You won't know who I am

You'll say I need appeasing

When I start to cry

But never is a promise

And I'll never need a lie

Muse - Pink Ego Box (or Instant Messenger)

its gonna be okay

can't afford another day

at fifteen bytes per second

I've never seen your face

I've never heard your voice

but I think I like it

When you instant message me with a promise

I can feel it

I can tell you're gonna be

just like me

my eyes are gonna strain

my heart is feeling pain

at fifteen beats per second

I've never seen your eyes

I've never heard your lies

but i think I like it

when you instant message me with a promise

and I can feel it

I can tell you're gonna be

just like me

you turn

you turn

you turn on me

Muse - Dead Star

 

Shame on you for thinking

You're an exception

We're all to blame

Crashing down to earth

Wasting and burning out , yeah

Fading like a dead star

Harm is coming your way

Yeah its coming your way

 

And you used to be everything to me

And now your tired of fighting

Tired of fighting

Fighting yourself

 

Shame on you for thinking

You're all alone

If you want I'll make you wish you were

Failing to impress

Why can't you sleep with

Someone who protects you, yeah

Harm is coming your way

Yeah its coming your way

 

And you used to be everything to me

And now your tired of fighting

Tired of fighting

Fighting yourself...

Bright Eyes - Train Underwater

 

you were born inside of a raindrop

I watched you fallin' to your death

and the sun well it could not save you

fallen down to you, now the streets are wet

 

body of water, toxic and timely

Atlantic ocean, New York skyline

I always get lost when I leave the village

so I couldn't come meet you in Brooklyn last night

 

but I sing glo-o-o-ory from my lowest

and I will say peace to the people I meet

while the world waits for an explosion

an instant of light that wipes the slate clean

 

but don't be fooled, but don't be lied to

love was always cruel

and don't act strange, don't be a stranger

it happened to me, now it's happening to you

but if you take that train underwater

then we could talk it through

 

well if I could tame all of my desires

wait out the weather that howls in my brain

because it seems that it's always changing

the wind's indecision, the sorrowful rain

 

and I was a postcard, and I was a record

and I was a camera, until I went blind

so now I am ridin' all over this island

lookin' for somethin' to open my eyes

 

but I still sing glo-o-o-ory from a high-rise

and I will say thanks, if you're pourin' my drink

while the world waits for an explosion

that moment in time when we'll be set free

 

but don't stay mad, just let some time pass

and in the mornin' you'll wake feelin' new

and if I don't come back

I mean if I get side-tracked

it's only cos I wanted to

keepin' up with the moon on an all-night avenue

Tori Amos - "Silent All These Years"

 

excuse me but

can i be you for a while

my DOG won't bite

if you sit real still

i got the anti-christ

in the kitchen

yellin' at me again

yeah i can hear that

 

been saved again

by the garbage truck

i got something to say

you know but NOTHING comes

yes i know what you think of me

you never shut up

yeah i can hear that

 

but what if i'm a mermaid

in these jeans of his

with her name still on it

hey but i don't care

cause sometimes i said

sometimes i hear my voice

and it's been

HERE silent all these years

 

so you found a girl

who thinks really deep thoughts

what's so amazing

about really deep thoughts

boy you best pray

that i bleed real soon

how's that thought for you

 

my scream got lost in a paper cup

you think there's a heaven

where some screams have gone

i got 25 bucks and a cracker

do you think it's enough

to get us there

 

but what if i'm a mermaid

in these jeans of his

with her name still on it

hey but i don't care

cause sometimes i said

sometimes i hear my voice and it's been

HERE silent all these

 

years go by will i still be waiting

for somebody else to understand

years go by if i'm stripped of my beauty

and the orange clouds raining in my head

years go by will i choke on my tears

till finally there is nothing left

one more casualty

you know we're to EASY easy easy

 

well i love the way we communicate

your eyes focus on my funny lip shape

let's hear what you think of me now

but baby don't look up

the sky is falling

 

your MOTHER shows up in a nasty dress

it's your turn now to stand where i stand

everybody lookin' at you

here take hold of my hand

yeah i can hear them

 

but what if i'm a mermaid

in these jeans of his with her name still on it

hey but i don't care

cause sometimes i said

sometimes i hear my voice

i hear my voice

i hear my voice

and it's been HERE silent all these years

i've been here silent all these years

silent all these

silent all these years

Muse - In Your World

Im hurting you again

Too lonely to pretend

Like everything is new

I promise you

To blow it all away

 

In your world

no one is crying alone

In your world

no one is dying alone

 

Too broken to belong

Too weak to sing along

I'll comfort you my friend

Helping you to

blow it all away

 

In your world no one is crying alone

In your world no one is dying alone

Muse - Unintended

you could be my unintended choice

to live my life extended

you could be the one i'll always love

 

you could be the one who listens to my deepest inquisitions

you could be the one i'll always love

 

i'll be there as soon as i can

but i'm busy

mending broken

pieces of the life i had before

 

first there was the one who challenged

all my dreams and all my balance

she could never be as good as you

 

you could be my unintended choice

to live my life extended

you should be the one i'll always love

 

i'll be there as soon as i can

but i'm busy mending broken

pieces of the life i had before

 

(repeat)

 

before you

I gather someone is fond of Muse?

eeeeeeeeee :D erm yep :)

Muse - Unintended

you could be my unintended choice

to live my life extended

you could be the one i'll always love

 

you could be the one who listens to my deepest inquisitions

you could be the one i'll always love

 

i'll be there as soon as i can

but i'm busy

mending broken

pieces of the life i had before

 

first there was the one who challenged

all my dreams and all my balance

she could never be as good as you

 

you could be my unintended choice

to live my life extended

you should be the one i'll always love

 

i'll be there as soon as i can

but i'm busy mending broken

pieces of the life i had before

 

(repeat)

 

before you

WOOOOOOO! GREAT thread Sammie, nuthin' beats postin lyrics! heheh

this is that song i was doin' earlier in the bored thread:

 

Nirvana - On A Plain

 

 

 

 

 

I'll start this off

Without any words

I got so high that

I scratched 'til I bled

 

Love myself

Better than you

I know it's wrong

So what should I do?

 

The finest day

That I ever had

Was when I learned

To cry on command

 

Love myself

Better than you

I know it's wrong

So what should I do?

 

I'm on a plain

I can't complain

I'm on a plain

 

My mother died

Every night

It's safe to say

Don't quote me on that

 

Love myself

Better than you

I know it's wrong

So what should I do?

 

The black sheep got

Blackmailed again

Forgot to put

On the zip code

 

Love myself

Better than you

I know it's wrong

So what should I do?

 

I'm on a plain

I can't complain

I'm on a plain

 

Somewhere I have heard this before

In a dream my memory has stored

As defense I'm neutered and spayed

What the hell am I trying to say?

 

It is now time

To make it unclear

To write off lines

That don't make a sense

 

Love myself

Better than you

I know it's wrong

So what should I do?

 

One more special

Message to go

And then I'm done

And I can go home

 

Love myself

Better than you

I know it's wrong

So what should I do?

 

I'm on a plain

I can't complain

I'm on a plain

I can't complain

I'm on a plain

I can't complain

I'm on a plain

I can't complain

I'm on a plain

Blur - You're So Great

 

Sad, drunk, and poorly

Sleeping really late

Sad, drunk, and poorly

Not feeling so great

Wandering lost in a town full of frowns

Sad, drunk, and poorly

Dogs digging up the ground

And I feel the light

In the night and in the day

And I feel the light

When the sky's just mud and grey

And I feel the light

When you tell me it's OK

Cos you're so great, and I love you

DT and coffee

Helps to start the day

DT and coffee

Shaking all the way

City's alive and, surprise, so am I

Tea, tea and coffee

Get no sleep today

And I feel the light

In the night and in the day

And I feel the light

When the sky's just mud and grey

And I feel the light

When you tell me it's OK

Cos you're so great, and I love you

Right Behind You (Mafia) by Our Lady Peace

It's a good song to listen to if you're ever feeling down. I love it!

 

You haven't seen the world outside for days

You sleep, you hope, you wait

Imagination disappears

And all the dreams you have you save

Confrontation like a mirror

They try to take your mind away

 

I don't know, but I believe in yesterday

And what it means

To bleed and know that you're okay

 

Are you waiting?

No matter what you say

No matter what you do

No matter what, I'm always right there behind you

 

Bombarded by the atmosphere

You breath, you choke, you breath again

Conversation disappears

You realize they're not your friends

The panic of the future rears

You dig, you jerk

You find another way

 

I don't know, but I believe in yesterday

And what it means

To bleed and know that you're okay

 

Are you waiting?

No matter what you say

No matter what you do

No matter what, I'm always right there behind you

 

You open up my veins now i dont feel the same

no no no

You open up my brain but i wont be replaced

 

No matter what you say

No matter what you do

No matter what I'm always right there behind you
