Stockholm Syndrome [Muse]

 

I won't stand in your way

let your hatred grow

and she'll scream

and she'll shout

and she'll pray

and she had a name

yeah she had a name

 

and I won't hold you back

let your anger rise

and we'll fly

and we'll fall

and we'll burn

no one will recall

no one will recall

 

this is the last time I'll abandon you

and this is the last time I'll forget you

I wish I could

 

look to the stars

let hope burn in your eyes

and we'll love

and we'll hope

and we'll die

all to no avail

all to no avail

 

this is the last time I'll abandon you

and this is the last time I'll forget you

I wish I could

 

this is the last time I'll abandon you

and this is the last time I'll forget you

I wish I could

I wish I could

Drying up in conversation

You will be the one who cannot talk

All your insides fall to pieces

You just sit there wishing you could still make love

 

They're the ones who'll hate you

When you think you've got the world all sussed out

They're the ones who'll spit at you

You will be the one screaming out

--Radiohead, High And Dry

I thought I'd bump this thread, coz I was about to create it.

At the moment:

 

Monkey Wrench

 

What have we done with innocence

It disappeared with time, it never made much sense

Adolescent resident

Wasting another night on planning my revenge

 

One in ten

 

Don’t want to be your monkey wrench

One more indecent accident

I’d rather leave than suffer this

I’ll never be your monkey wrench

 

All this time to make amends

What do you do when all your enemies are friends

Now and then I’ll try to bend

Under pressure wind up snapping in the end

 

One in ten

 

Don’t want to be your monkey wrench

One more indecent accident

I’d rather leave than suffer this

I’ll never be your monkey wrench

 

One last thing before I quit

I never wanted any more than I could fit

Into my head I still remember every single word

You said and all the shit that somehow came along with it

Still there’s one thing that comforts me since I was

Always caged and now I’m free

 

Don’t want to be your monkey wrench

One more indecent accident

I’d rather leave than suffer this

I’ll never be your monkey wrench

 

Don’t want to be your monkey wrench (fall in, fall out)

Don’t want to be your monkey wrench (fall in, fall out)

Don’t want to be your monkey wrench (fall in, fall out)

Don’t want to be your monkey wrench

Tait - Fallen

 

She's a wreck

Fragile and scarred

Life is work and living is hard

She's tired of the pain, tired of the fix

She's tired of the games and the politics

 

She's running on empty

She wants an alternate ending

 

And she's falling

She's falling in love with You

She's so hopeless

She's hopelessly drawn to You

 

She can feel the weight of the past

It drags her down but she's fighting back

She wants to fly far away from here

She wants a God that won't disappear

 

She's all out of chances

She is looking for answers

 

And she's falling

She's falling in love with You

She's so hopeless

She's hopelessly drawn to You

 

The sun is on the rise

New days coming

You see it in her eyes

She's runnin'

Head long into the light

Let the new day come

 

And she's falling

She's falling in love with You

She's so hopeless

She's so hopelessly drawn to You

 

The sun is rising in her eyes

Hold on, the day will come

Love is waiting

Running to the light

Hold on, the day will come

P.O.D: Change The World

Imagine a place only your soul can vision

The heart of a child who looks, sees, and listens

Paints a picture using every color

And what she sees, she sees is like no other

 

One word, a voice unheard

You can Change The World

With everything I know your made of

One word, a voice unheard

You can Change The World

If everyone would stop and listen

 

The art of innocence makes so much sense

But placed in the wrong hands, then it's wasted

Filtered through the eyes of a pure mind

A one-of-a-kind paradise for you and I

 

One word, a voice unheard

You can Change The World

With everything I know your made of

One word, a voice unheard

You can Change The World

If everyone would stop and listen

Break the cycle, find your rhythm

Share the gift that you've been given - Love

You can, You can Change The World

You can Change The World with love

 

One word, a voice unheard

You can Change The World

With everything I know your made of

One word, a voice unheard

You can Change The World

If everyone would stop and listen

 

One word, a voice unheard

You can Change The World

With everything I know your made of

One word, a voice unheard

You can Change The World

If everyone would stop and listen

Kent - Stop me June (Little ego)

 

I've been waiting for my brilliance to

shine through

like waiting would do

I've been called a little coward more

than once

It hurts when it's true

I've been following your footprints in

the snow

Trying to return the excuses that I stole

 

I'm the first on and the last off the bus

Little ego be stil

And I fight the cold wind back up the street

To Hagnesta Hill

and the darkness and the snow fallen as one

and I lost my scarf

at a busstop on the outskirts of town

 

I gather all the courage and the hate

Little ego is wild

And my voice broke I finally reached

that age

I was cruel as a child

If this feeling that remains is not mine

then it´s something new

Maybe my brilliance shining through

 

It's noisy, can't think I can't speak

I'm tired of handshakes so please

Get rid of this crowd I can't breathe here

anymore

You just have to let me go, you just have to

let me go

 

It's noisy, can't think I can't speak...

Guest Grace

Björk and Thom Yorke

 

I've seen it all, I have seen the trees,

I've seen the willow leaves dancing in the breeze

I've seen a man killed by his best friend,

And lives that were over before they were spent.

I've seen what I was - I know what I'll be

I've seen it all - there is no more to see!

 

You haven't seen elephants, kings or Peru!

I'm happy to say I had better to do

What about China? Have you seen the Great Wall?

All walls are great, if the roof doesn't fall!

 

And the man you will marry?

The home you will share?

To be honest, I really don't care...

 

You've never been to Niagara Falls?

I have seen water, its water, that's all...

The Eiffel Tower, the Empire State?

My pulse was as high on my very first date!

Your grandson's hand as he plays with your hair?

To be honest, I really don't care...

 

I've seen it all, I've seen the dark

I've seen the brightness in one little spark.

I've seen what I chose and I've seen what I need,

And that is enough, to want more would be greed.

I've seen what I was and I know what I'll be

I've seen it all - there is no more to see!

 

You've seen it all and all you have seen

You can always review on your own little screen

The light and the dark, the big and the small

Just keep in mind - you need no more at all

You've seen what you were and know what you'll be

You've seen it all - there is no more to see!

 

 

i admire this song ... it's simply brilliant

Cool idea for a thread. :)

 

These LP lyrics definatley fit a situation I had recently...

 

 

 

I am a little bit of loneliness, a little bit of disregard,

Handful of complaints but I can't help the fact

That everybody can see these scars,

I am what I want you to want, what I want you to feel,

But it's like no matter what I do, I can't convince you

To just believe this is real,

So I, let go watching you turn your back like you always do,

Face away and pretend that I'm not,

But I'll be here cause you're all that I've got

 

I can't feel the way I did before,

Don't turn your back on me,

I won't be ignored

Time won't heal this damage anymore,

Don't turn your back on me I won't be ignored

 

I am, a little bit insecure, a little unconfident,

Cos' you don't understand I do what I can

Sometimes I don't make sense,

I am, what you never wanna say, but I've never had a doubt,

It's like no matter what I do I can't convince you for once just to hear me out,

So I, let go watching you turn your back like you always do,

You face away and pretend that I'm not,

But I'll be here cause you're all that I've got

 

I can't feel the way I did before,

Don't turn your back on me,

I won't be ignored

Time won't heal this damage anymore,

Don't turn your back on me I won't be ignored

 

Hear me out now

You're gonna listen to me like it or not

Right now, hear me out now

You're gonna listen to me like it or not

Right now

 

I can't feel the way I did before,

Don't turn your back on me,

I won't be ignored

All Flowers In Time Lyrics- Jeff Buckley (also some lady sings)

 

my eyes are

a baptism

oh i am filth

and sing her

to my face

oh phantom elusive thing oh,

 

all flowers in time bend towards the sun

i know you say that there's no-one for you

but here is one,

all flowers in time bend towards the sun

i know you say that there's no-one for you

but here is one, here is one... here is one

 

aah, ooh...

one that can never be known

either all drunk with the world at her feet

or sober with no place to go

 

all flowers in time bend towards the sun

i know you say that there's no-one for you

but here is one,

all flowers in time bend towards the sun

i know you say that there's no-one for you

but here is one, here is one... here is one

 

aah, ooh...

we could go

we can travel round

fading farther from me

with your face in my window call

 

when will you weep for me

sweet willow

 

it's ok to be angry

but not to hurt me

your happiness, yes, yes, yes

darling, darling,

oooh...

 

all flowers in time bend towards the sun

i know you say that there's no-one for you

but here is one,

all flowers in time bend towards the sun

i know you say that there's no-one for you

but here is one, here is one... here is one

Ég Læt Mig Líða Áfram

Í Gegnum Hausinn

(Hugsa) Hálfa Leið

Afturábak

Sé Sjálfan Mig Syngja Sem

 

Fagnaðarerindið Við Sömdum Saman tyooo...

Við Áttum Okkur Draum

Áttum Allt

Við Riðum Heimsendi

Við Riðum Leitandi

Klifruðum Skýjakljúfa

Sem Síðar Sprungu Upp

Friðurinn Úti

Ég Lek Jafnvægi

Ég Dett Niður

Ég Læt Mig Líða Áfram

Í Gegnum Hausinn

Ég Kem Alltaf Niður Aftur Á Sama Stað

Alger Þögn

Ekkert Svar

(En) Það Besta Sem Guð Hefur Skapað

Er Nýr Dagur

 

Nananananana you don't understand this gibberish :D

These are probably my favorite, most poetic lyrics of all-time. Yes, even more than Coldplay. The song is "Left and Leaving" by The Weakerthans. I've cried to this song countless times. It's my graduation theme to all my friends. And when I think of it in that context (especially the birthday card line... and the wait for the year to drown line).

 

My city's still breathing (but barely it's true)

through buildings gone missing like teeth.

The sidewalks are watching me think about you,

sparkled with broken glass.

 

I'm back with scars to show.

Back with the streets I know

Will never take me anywhere but here.

 

The stain in the carpet, this drink in my hand,

the strangers whose faces I know.

We meet here for our dress-rehearsal to say

" I wanted it this way"

 

Wait for the year to drown.

Spring forward, fall back down.

I'm trying not to wonder where you are.

 

All this time lingers, undefined.

Someone choose who's left and who's leaving.

 

Memory will rust and erode

into lists of all that you gave me:

a blanket, some matches, this pain in my chest,

the best parts of Lonely,

 

duct-tape and soldered wires,

new words for old desires,

and every birthday card I threw away.

 

I wait in 4/4 time.

Count yellow highway lines

that you're relying on to lead you home.

I just heard an acoustic version of this song that KT Tunstall did for NPR awhile ago and it hit me like a ton of lead bricks. I guess I've been feeling a little lost lately.

 

KT Tunstall - Through the Dark

 

As I walk away

I look over my shoulder

To see what I'm leaving behind

Pieces of puzzles

And wishes on eyelashes fail

 

Oh, how do I show

All the love inside my heart?

For this is all new

And I'm feeling my way through the dark

 

I used to talk

With honest conviction

Of how I predicted my world

I'm gonna leave it to stargazers

Tell me what your telescope says

 

Oh, what is in store for me now?

It's coming apart

I know that its true

Cos I'm feeling my way through the dark

 

Trying to find a light on somewhere

Trying to find a light on somewhere

I'm finding I'm falling

in love with the dark over here

 

Oh, what do I know, I don't care

Where I start

For my troubles are few

As I'm feeling my way through the dark

Through the dark

I'm feeling my way through the dark

I Slide Forward

Through My Head

I Think Half Way

Backwards

See Myself Sing

The Anthem We Wrote Together

We Had A Dream

We Had Everything

We Rode To The End Of The World

We Rode Searching

Climbed Skyscrapers

Which Later Exploded

The Peace Was Gone

Balance Leaks Out

I Fall Down

Slide Forward

Through My Head

I Always Return To The Same Place

Total Silence

No Answer

The Best Thing God Has Created

Is A New Day

 

Picture of my spring
