Damien Rice & Christy Moore~Lonely Soldier

Lonely soldier go home

Lonely but never alone

Good eyes see nothin' to shoot

Good feet feel good givin' up good boots

 

So ask your father how to fall

Ask your father how to fall

Like a leaf sttin' on the ground

Good for nothin' except kickin' around

 

She died with her hands stretched out

She died with a hungry mouth

She died with a mind full of doubt

And thoughts of weakening

 

So may your river never dry

And may your mouth never lie

And may you be satisfied to never know why

Or how to live again

 

Where'd you get those cuts in your hand?

Thought I told you about playin' in the sand

There's always someone careless with glass

Just like a question you don't want to ask

 

She died with her hands stretched out

She died with a hungry mouth

She died with a mind full of doubt

And thoughts of weakening

 

So may your river never dry

And may your mouth never lie

And may you be satisfied to never know why

Or how to love again

 

Lonely soldier go home

Lonely but never alone

Good eyes see nothin' to shoot

Good feet feel good givin' up good boots

Radiohead - My Iron Lung

 

Faith, you're driving me away

You do it every day

You don't mean it but

It hurts like hell

 

My brain says I'm receiving pain

A lack of oxygen

From my life support

My iron lung

 

We're too young to fall asleep

Too innocent to speak

We are losing it

Can't you tell?

 

We scratch our eternal itch

Our twentieth century bitch

We are grateful for

Our iron lung

 

The headshrinkers, they want everything

My Uncle Bill, my belisha beacon

The headshrinkers, they want everything

My Uncle Bill, my belisha beacon

 

Suck, suck your teenage thumb

Toilet trained and dumb

When the power runs out

We'll just hum

 

This, this is our new song

Just like the last one

A total waste of time

My iron lung

 

The headshrinkers, they want everything

My Uncle Bill, my belisha beacon

The headshrinkers, they want everything

My Uncle Bill, my belisha beacon

 

And if you're frightened

You can be frightened

You can be it's okay

And if you're frightened

You can be frightened

You can be it's okay

Feeder - Summers Gone

 

Crack and break, life's big mistake

I'm feeling it too,

There's no way home, the summers gone,

The summer's gone away

 

Back down to earth,

A conscience burst

I'm feeling it too

Just slipped away

The summers gone, the love has gone

The summers gone away

 

It's turned to grey, just burned away

A moment too soon

We've turned to grey

Just like yesterday

It's turned to black and white

 

Cold as stone, no contact known

Your feeling it too

As thoughts decay

The summers gone, the colours gone

The summers gone

Away

 

Just turned to grey

Just burned away

A moment to soon

We've turned to grey

Just like yesterday

Its turned to black and white

 

 

Oooh you're thinking back, you're going back to places that you've been

Where days could last forever, but you can only dream

Ohh we're going back I'm looking back to places that we've seen

Moments that have been, places we can dream

 

Crash and break, life's big mistakeYou

Your feeling it too

Just slipped away

The love has gone

The summers gone away

 

Turned to grey

Just burned away

A moment to soon

We turned to grey

Just like yesterday

Yesterday

 

Turned to grey

Just burned away

A moment to soon

We've turned to grey

Just like yesterday

Yesterday

Radiohead - Fog

 

There's a little child

Running 'round this house

And he never leaves

He will never leave

And the fog comes up

From the sewers and

Glows in the dark

 

Baby alligators in the sewers

Grow up fast

Grow up fast

Anything you want

It can be done now

 

How did you go bad?

Did you go bad?

Did you go bad?

Some things will never wash away

Did you go bad?

Did you go bad?

Daughters - John Mayer

 

I know a girl

She puts the color inside of my world

But she's just like a maze

Where all of the walls all continually change

And I've done all I can

To stand on her steps with my heart in my hands

Now I'm starting to see

Maybe it's got nothing to do with me

 

Fathers, be good to your daughters

Daughters will love like you do

Girls become lovers who turn into mothers

So mothers, be good to your daughters too

 

Oh, you see that skin?

It's the same she's been standing in

Since the day she saw him walking away

Now she's left

Cleaning up the mess he made

 

So fathers, be good to your daughters

Daughters will love like you do

Girls become lovers who turn into mothers

So mothers, be good to your daughters too

 

Boys, you can break

You'll find out how much they can take

Boys will be strong

And boys soldier on

But boys would be gone without the warmth from

A womans good, good heart

 

On behalf of every man

Looking out for every girl

You are the god and the weight of her world

 

So fathers, be good to your daughters

Daughters will love like you do

Girls become lovers who turn into mothers

So mothers, be good to your daughters too

FOO FIGHTERS || EVERLONG

 

Hello

I've waited here for you

Everlong

 

Tonight I throw myself in two

Out of the red

Out of her head she sang

 

Come down and waste away with me

Down with me

Slow, how you wanted it to be

I'm over my head

Out of her head she sang

 

And I wonder

When I sing along with you

If everything could ever feel this real forever

If anything could ever be this good again

The only thing I'll ever ask of you

You've got to promise not to stop when I say when

 

She sang

 

Breathe out

So I can breathe you in

Hold you in

And now

I know you've always been

Out of your head

Out of my head I sang

 

And I wonder

When I sing along with you

If everything could ever feel this real forever

If anything could ever be this good again

The only thing I'll ever ask of you

You've got to promise not to stop when I say when

 

She Sang

 

And I wonder

If everything could ever feel this real forever

If anything could ever be this good again

The only thing I'll ever ask of you

You've got to promise not to stop when I say when

Beck - Lost Cause

 

Your sorry eyes cut through the bone

They make it hard to leave you alone

Leave you here wearing your wounds

Waving your guns at somebody new

 

Baby you're lost

Baby you're lost

Baby you're a lost cause

 

There's too many people you used to know

They see you coming they see you go

They know your secrets and you know theirs

This town is crazy; nobody cares

 

Baby you're lost

Baby you're lost

Baby you're a lost cause

 

I'm tired of fighting

I'm tired of fighting

Fighting for a lost cause

 

There’s a place where you are going

You ain't never been before

No one left to watch your back now

No one standing at your door

That's what you thought love was for

 

Baby you're lost

Baby you're lost

Baby you're a lost cause

 

I'm tired of fighting

I'm tired of fighting

Fighting for a lost cause

^i love this song! ;)

 

 

Coldplay - See you soon

 

So you lost your trust

And you never should have

You never should have

But don't break your back

If you ever see this

Don't answer that.

 

In a bullet proof vest

With the windows all closed

I'll be doing my best,

I'll see you soon,

In a telescope lens

And when all you want is friends

I'll see you soon.

 

So they came for you

They came snapping at your heels

They come snapping at you heels

But don't break your back

If you ever see this

Don't answer that.

 

In a bullet proof vest

With the windows all closed

I'll be doing my best

I'll see you soon

In a telescope lens

And when all you want is friends

I'll see you soon

I'll see you soon

 

I know you lost your trust

I know you lost your trust

Don't lose your trust

I know you lost your trust.

The Who - My Generation

 

People try to put us down

Just because we get around

The things they do look awful cold

I hope I die before I get old

 

This is my generation

This is my generation baby

 

Why don't you all fade away?

And don't try and dig what we all say

I'm not trying to cause a big sensation

I'm just talking about my generation

 

This is my generation

This is my generation baby

My, my, my, my generation baby

Without You - Silverchair

 

Miles Away

There's hopeless smiles brighter than mine

And I need for you to come and go

Without the truth falling out.

 

Old incisions refusing to stay

Like sun through the trees on a cloudy day

 

Telephone

Socially scared and impaired

If the trees will bloom the wind can blow

Without the fruit falling out

 

Feels like the wind blows

Holding you with us

She takes no other

False light and ashes

Blooming like winter

Dry eyes and cracked lips

Under the stone wall

Withdrawn and wishless

 

You brighten my life like a polystyrene hat

But it melts in the sun like a life without love

But I've waited for you so I'll keep crying out

Without You

muse-screenager

 

Who’s so phoney and always surrounded?

Stop you’re screaming, no one can hear

All the scars on your skin, post no bills

 

Who you were

Was so beautiful

Remember who... who you where

 

Hide from the mirror, the cracks and the memories

Hide from your family, they won't know you now

For all the holes in our soul host no thrills

 

Who you were

Was so beautiful

Memories who... who you were

---------------------------------------------------

It was stuck in my head all day :rolleyes:

Jeff Buckley - What Will You Say?

 

It's been such a long time

And I was just a child then

What will you say when you see my face?

Time feels like it's flown away

The days just pass and fade away

What will you say when they take my place?

 

It's funny now

I just don't feel like a man

What will you say when you see my face?

 

Mother dear, the world's gone cold

No one cares about love anymore

What will you say when you see my face?

Father do you hear me?

Do you know me? Do you even care?

What will you say when they take my place?

 

My heart can't take this anymore

What will you say when you see my face?

When you see my, see my face

 

I can feel your time crawling

To a slow end

I can feel my time crawling

To a slow end

 

Mother dear, the world's gone cold

No one cares about love anymore

What will you say when you see my face?

Father do you hear me?

Do you know me? Did you even care?

What will you say when you take my place?

 

Well it's so funny now

I just don't feel like I'm a man

What will you say?

and a little dark song

 

The Frames - A Caution To The Birds

 

The body's not secure,

the truth will not absorb,

and this crumbling apart,

is no good for you at all..

 

sound, there's order in the sound,

the sound that you don't know..

 

and with eyes that never look,

past the time under foot,

and this reading in the cards,

is a caution to the birds..

 

sound, there's order in the sound,

the sound that you don't know..

Radiohead - Gagging Order

 

I know what you're thinking

But I'm not your property

No matter what you say

No matter what you say

 

Move along, nothing left to see

Just a body, nothing left to see

 

A couple more for breakfast

A little more for tea

Just to take the edge off

Just to take the edge off

 

Move along, nothing left to see

Just a body, pouring down the street

 

Move along, nothing left to see

Just a body, nothing left to see

 

Move along

Manic Street Preachers - If You Tolerate This Your Children Will Be Next

 

The future teaches you to be alone

The present to be afraid and cold

So if I can shoot rabbits

Then I can shoot fascists

 

Bullets for your brain today

But we'll forget it all again

Monuments put from pen to paper

Turns me into a gutless wonder

 

And if you tolerate this

Then your children will be next

And if you tolerate this

Then your children will be next

Will be next

Will be next

Will be next

 

Gravity keeps my head down

Or is it maybe shame

At being so young and being so vain

 

Holes in your head today

But I'm a pacifist

I've walked Las Ramblas

But not with real intent

 

And if you tolerate this

Then your children will be next

And if you tolerate this

Then your children will be next

Will be next

Will be next

Will be next

Will be next

 

And on the street tonight an old man plays

With newspaper cuttings of his glory days

 

And if you tolerate this

Then your children will be next

And if you tolerate this

Then your children will be next

Will be next

Will be next

Will be next

 

One of my favourites :cool:

DJ Shadow - Blood On The Motorway

 

And now - eternity

 

Be still now

I am with you

I am deep within you

You are at peace

You cannot be harmed

You will not suffer

Breathe deeply

Breathe in the healing love of the universe

And breathe out the sickness which has taken you

I am with you

 

It's easy

It's like breathing

It's like a heartbeat

It's easy

 

You have not betrayed your ideals

Your ideals betrayed you

What are you gonna do?

 

Your eyes will not close

Your tongue barely speaks

But I can still feel you

 

I can still feel you

So come, come relax

Grin, let the changes in

 

Come on, come on, relax

Grin, let the laughter

Let the laughter

Let the laughter begin

 

Relax, grin, let the changes in

 

Time is done

The sun has gone

It's too late

Eternity has come

My Stupid Mouth - John Mayer

 

My stupid mouth,

Has got me in trouble.

I said too much again.

To a date over dinner yesterday

And I could see she was offended.

She said well anyway...

Just dying for a subject change.

 

Oh, it’s another social casualty

Score one more for me

How could I forget?

Mama said think before speaking

No filter in my head.

Oh, what’s a boy to do?

I guess he better find one soon

 

We bit our lips. she looked out the window

Rolling tiny balls of napkin paper

I played a quick game of chess with the

Salt and pepper shaker.

And I could see clearly

An indelible line was drawn

Between what was good, what just

Slipped out and what went wrong.

 

Oh, the way she feels about me has changed.

Thanks for playing, try again.

 

How could I forget?

 

Mama said think before speaking

No filter in my head.

Oh, what’s a boy to do?

I guess he better find one.

 

I’m never speaking up again. it only hurts me.

I’d rather be a mystery than she desert me.

 

Oh I’m never speaking up again.

Starting now

 

One more thing.

Why is it my fault?

So maybe I try too hard

But it’s all because of this desire

I just wanna be liked, I just wanna be funny.

Looks like the jokes on me

So call me captain backfire

 

I’m never speaking up again it only hurts me.

I’d rather be a mystery than she desert me.

 

Oh I’m never speaking up again

Starting now

U2 - Where The Streets Have No Name

 

I want to run

I want to hide

I want to tear down the walls

That hold me inside

I want to reach out

And touch the flame

Where the streets have no name

 

I want to feel, sunlight on my face

See that dust cloud disappear without a trace

I want to take shelter from the poison rain

Where the streets have no name

 

Where the streets have no name

Where the streets have no name

We're still building

Then burning down love, burning down love

And when I go there

I go there with you...

(It's all I can do)

 

The cities a flood

And our love turns to rust

We're beaten and blown by the wind

Trampled in dust

I'll show you a place

High on a desert plain

Where the streets have no name

 

Where the streets have no name

Where the streets have no name

We're still building

Then burning down love, burning down love

And when I go there

I go there with you...

(It's all I can do)

Right Here, Right Now - Jesus Jones

 

A woman on the radio talks about revolution

when it's already passed her by

but Bob Dylan didn't have this to sing about you

you know it feels good to be alive

 

I was alive and I waited waited

I was alive and I waited for this

Right here, right now, there is no other place I want to be

Right here, right now, watching the world wake up from history

 

I saw the decade in, when it seemed

the world could change at the blink of an eye

And if anything

then there's your sign of the times

 

I was alive and I waited waited

I was alive and I waited for this

Right here, right now

 

I was alive and I waited waited

I was alive and I waited for this

Right here, right now, there is no other place I want to be

Right here, right now, watching the world wake up from history

 

Right here, right now, there is no other place I want to be

Right here, right now, watching the world wake up from history

 

Right here, right now, there is no other place I want to be

Right here, right now, watching the world wake up

I'd like to post the lyrics for 'Stay Where You Are,' by Ambulance LTD, unfortunantly, I can't fucking find them anywhere...

we can wait :rolleyes: :D

 

Snow Patrol - We Can Run Away Now They’re All Dead And Gone

 

One step too far

Is not far enough away from here

 

Stay close to me

Don’t relax your grip on my right hand

 

But you are all I really want in this life

You could be the summer rain on my face

You push a little tear into my eye lid

Don’t torture yourself thinking that it must sting

 

Don’t turn your head

Pretend they’re all dead and gone by now

 

Can you feel that?

Feels like breath on the back of my neck

 

But you are all I really want in this life

You could be the summer rain on my face

You push a little tear into my eye lid

Don’t torture yourself thinking that it must sting

Found Out About You - Gin Blossoms

 

All last summer, in case you don't recall,

I was yours and you were mine

Forget it all

Is there a line that I could write

That's sad enough to make you cry?

 

And all the lines you wrote to me were lies

Months roll past the love that you struck dead

Did you love me only in my head

There were things you said and did to me

They seem to come so easily

 

The love I thought I'd won

You give for free

 

CHORUS:

Whispers at the bus stop

I've heard about nights out in the school yard

I found out about you

I found out about you

 

Rumors follow everywhere you go

Like when you left and I was last to know

Well your famous now and there's no doubt

In all the places you hang out

They know your name and they know what you're about

 

Chorus

 

Street lights blink on through the car window

I get the time to often on AM Radio

Well you know it's all I think about

I write your name drive past your house

Your boyfriend's over I watch your lights go out

 

Chorus x2

REM - Imitation Of Life

 

Charades, pop skill

Water hyacinth

Named by a poet

Imitation of life

 

Like a koi in a frozen pond

Like a goldfish in a bowl

I don't want to hear you cry

 

That sugarcane that tasted good

That's cinnamon, that's Hollywood

Come on, come on

No one can see you try

 

You want the greatest thing

The greatest thing since bread came sliced

You've got it all

You've got it sussed

 

Like a Friday fashion show

Teenager freezing in the corner

Trying to look like you don't try

 

That sugarcane that tasted good

That's cinnamon, that's Hollywood

Come on, come on

No one can see you try

 

No one can see you cry

 

That's sugarcane that tasted good

That's freezing rain, that's what you could

Come on, come on

No one can see you cry

 

This sugarcane, this lemonade

This hurricane, I'm not afraid

Come on, come on

No one can see me cry

 

This lightning storm, this tidal wave

This avalanche, I'm not afraid

Come on, come on

No one can see me cry

 

That sugarcane that tasted good

That's who you are, that's what you could

Come on, come on

No one can see you cry

 

That sugar cane that tasted good

That's who you are, that's what you could

Come on, come on

No one can see you cry
