Bones, sinking like stones,

All that we fought for,

Homes, places we've grown,

All of us are done for.

 

And we live in a beautiful world,

Yeah we do, yeah we do,

We live in a beautiful world

 

Bones, sinking like stones,

All that we fought for,

And homes, places we've grown,

All of us are done for.

 

And we live in a beautiful world,

Yeah we do, yeah we do,

We live in a beautiful world.

 

And we live in a beautiful world,

Yeah we do, yeah we do,

We live in a beautiful world.

 

Oh, all that I know,

There's nothing here to run from,

Cause, yeah, everybody here's got somebody to lean on. :heart:

Stars shining bright above you

Night breezes seem to whisper "i love you"

Birds singin’ in the sycamore trees

Dream a little dream of me

 

Say nighty-night and kiss me

Just hold me tight and tell me you’ll miss me

While I’m alone and blue as can be

Dream a little dream of me

 

Stars fading but I linger on dear

Still craving your kiss

I’m longin’ to linger till dawn dear

Just saying this

 

Sweet dreams till sunbeams find you

Sweet dreams that leave all worries behind you

But in your dreams whatever they be

Dream a little dream of me

 

 

Stars shining up above you

Night breezes seem to whisper "i love you"

Birds singin’ in the sycamore trees

Dream a little dream of me

 

Sweet dreams till sunbeams find you

Sweet dreams that leave all worries behind you

But in your dreams whatever they be

Dream a little dream of me

 

Yes, dream a little dream of me

Mando Diao - You Can't Steal My Love

 

 

I was walking down the street

with my chains tied up to my feet

I leaned instead of jiggie with the sidewalk

Now this street tells the same old boring tale

that has failed in so many ways of life

To trust its stories you’ve got to be dull as them

 

And all the love I’ve got in here

You’ve just killed you peasants didn’t even care

The love I had in store you raped for more

And all the dreams I had in here

you’ve just stolen You peasants didn’t even care

But the dreams I had for her you cannot touch,

my golden hand ‘Cause it’s guarded by your promises

 

I met her in a crowded room

where the bookshelves help you and knowledge takes your hand

I watched her beauty from an armchair

I said “Hey girl have you seen that film with those kids

in New York in the eighties

Oh, you have – Well, can I watch it with you anyway”

 

And all the love I’ve got in here…

 

Congratulation Mr. Major

you savior, betrayer, you stinking master of trusts

How does it feel to ride all those horses

You cannot touch our hearts when we’re in bloom

I assume that we’ll win over the heads again

We conceal non, you’ll feel none, that’s what I promise

 

And all the love we’ve got in store,

you can’t kill You peasants! We won it all

And the love I have for her you cannot touch,

my golden hand, ‘Cause it’s guarded by your filthy promises

 

And all the love I’ve got in here…

 

Honey I love you, like the summer falls

And the winter crawls

you’re above and beyond me…

"Way To Fall"

 

Son

You've got a way to fall

They'll tell you where to go

But they won't know

 

Son

You'd better take it all

They'll tell you what they know

But they won't show

 

Oh

I've got something in my throat

I need to be alone

While I suffer

 

Son

You've got a way to kill

They're picking on you still

But they don't know

 

Son

You'd better wait to shine

They'll tell you what is yours

But they'll take mine

 

Oh

I've got something in my throat

I need to be alone

While I suffer

 

Oh

There's a hole inside my boat

And I need stay afloat

For the summer

Long

 

Oh

I've got something in my throat

I need to be alone

While I suffer

 

Oh

There's a hole inside my boat

And I need stay afloat

For the summer

 

Son

You've got to wait to fall

They'll tell you where to go

But they won't know

Kent - Kärleken väntar

 

Brinn pengar brinn

Jag lovar du betyder nånting

Du orkar ta dig igenom det här

Du räcker till, så var den du är

 

Brinn pengar brinn

Jag vet att du är värd någonting

Du är hoppet i ett IQ-fritt land

Du är drömmarna jag drömmer ibland

 

Visst känns det som att kärleken väntar

Visst känns det som att kärleken väntar

 

Brinn hjärtat brinn

Du vet du kan förändra allting

Det blåser genom staden i natt

Hör du sanningen, den lät som ett skratt

 

Brinn hjärtat brinn

Vår fiende är rädd om sitt skinn

Det räcker med en gnista ett bloss

Dom skulle vilja vara som oss

 

Visst känns det som att kärleken väntar

Visst känns det som att kärleken väntar

 

Visst känns det som att kärleken väntar

Visst känns det som att kärleken väntar

 

Visst känns det som att kärleken väntar

Visst känns det som att kärleken väntar

Mark Geary - Ghosts

 

when i laid in the sand I thought about you

when you laid in the sand you said you saw

I don't know how much time we're given....

fighting for your right to fail.

 

and then after you left the dream was broken

just your shape in the sand

no words we're needed

I don't know how much time we're given

fighting for your right to fail.

 

When your driving your boats

and your waving me in.

Run around with your ghosts

who perpetually grin..

you know god only knows if your calling me home...

 

And I played in your bands

and I thought about you

you said you'd lend me a hand

when you felt you could

I don't know how much time we're given.

fighting for your right to fail

 

your just a nail on a cross

with a call coming in

divide your highs and your lows

but you won't let me win

and God only knows if your calling me home...

The Libertines - What became of the likely lads?

 

Please don't get me wrong

See I forgive you in a song

We'll call the Likely Lads

But if it's left to you

I know exactly what you'd do

With all the dreams we had

 

Just blood runs thicker, oh

We're as thick as thieves, you know

If that's important to you

It's important to me

I tried to make you see

But you don't wanna know

You don't want to know!

 

If you pipe all summer long

Then get forgiven in a song

Well that's a touch, my lad

 

They sold the rights to all the wrongs

And when they knew you'd give me songs

Welcome back, I said

 

The blood runs thicker, oh

We're as thick as thieves, you know

If that's important to you

It's important to me

I tried to make you see

But you don't wanna know

You don't want to know!

 

Oh what became of the Likely Lads?

What became of the dreams we had?

Oh what became of forever?

Oh what became of forever?

Though, we'll never know

 

Please don't get me wrong

See I forgive you in a song

Will call the Likely Lads

 

We all bought the ones

We taught 'em all we wrote the songs

That's filled with dreams we have

 

But blood runs thicker, oh

We're as thick as thieves, you know

If that's important to you

It's important to me

I tried to make you see

But you don't wanna know

You don't want to know!

 

Oh what became of the Likely Lads?

What became of the dreams we had?

Oh what became of forever?

Oh what became of forever?

We'll never know!

To be lost in the forest

To be cut adrift

You've been trying to reach me

You bought me a book

To be lost in the forest

To be cut adrift

I've been paid

I've been paid

 

Don't get offended

If I seem absent minded

Just keep telling me facts

And keep making me smile

Don't get offended

If I seem absent minded

I get tongue-tied

Baby, you've got to be more discerning

I've never known what's good for me

I will be yours

 

I'll pay for you anytime

 

You told me you wanted to eat up my sadness

Well jump on, enjoy, you can gorge away

You told me you wanted to eat up my sadness

Jump right on

Baby, you've got to be more discerning

I've never known what's good for me

Baby, you've got to be more demanding

I will be yours

 

What are you holding out for?

What's always in the way?

Why so damn absent-minded?

Why so scared of romance?

 

This modern love breaks me

This modern love wastes me

 

Do you wanna come over and kill some time?

Tell me facts, tell me facts, tell me facts

Tell me facts

Throw your arms around me

Giant Drag - Cordial Invitation

 

Oh watch this for a minute

It could change any second

Don't you let him forget it

Oh oh

 

Oh watch this for a minute

It will change any second

Don't you let him forget it

Can't give out

 

Your dream

Is my nightmare

Your dream

Is my new kiss

 

Oh don't stop me believing

Once I get my head in it

I will run from the corner

I will leave here this minute

 

Your dream

Is my nightmare

Your dream

Is my new kiss

Your dream

Don't have me there

You'll see its different when you care

You're not what I thought

 

Your dream

Is my nightmare

Your dream

Is my new kiss

You're not what I thought

 

I love this song and it's so true...

rilo kiley - plane crash in c

 

if you're scared and it shows cause you're watching them grow

and traveling blows when you're out of road

and when you jump up the earth wants you back

 

your resentment grows till you're all alone

but you're so smart how could they not know

when you're standing there in good humored white

 

and how do you do it?

and make it seem effortless

when its all the stupid things

so overwhelming to me

like paying my bills

or showing up for work early

or laughing at your jokes

 

when you first said that anything goes

or a problem is a task disguised in work clothes

that's when i knew i had to move

and why do you do it?

and make it seem delicate

when its all the stupid things

so damn confusing to me

like talking it through

controlling my temper

like letting it go

saying please forgive me

for laughing at your jokes

 

i have no idea what's been going on lately

and i just wish you'd come over and explain things

 

and i have no idea what's been going on lately

and i just wish you'd come over and explain things

 

i have no idea what's been going on lately

and i just wish you'd come over and explain things

 

i have no idea what's been going on lately

and i just wish you'd come over and explain things

 

why do they do it?

show up anyway

when they know that damn well

there's no room for promotions out here

and maybe it's wise

and maybe i'm just stupid

for laughing at your jokes

i'm a monster - ours

 

Am I a bad guy,

Am I a bad soul

My eyes roll backward

My head fell forward

We want the vampires

They want the daylight

Undecided if we will feel it

 

All the lies and fantasies I picked to deny what is right

as the lawyers lie down to the sound of a broken man clinging

to the legs of a butterfly.

We live to see our children die,

turn to the bright to describe what we never will find,

I'm a monster singing through the side of a left eye

 

And I will pay for, and I will pay for,

I couldn't have her,I couldn't save her,

If I could grab on, I'd pull the weight, love

 

All the lies and fantasies I picked to deny what is right

as the lawyers lie down to the sound of a broken man clinging

to the legs of a butterfly, of a butterfly

We live to see our children die,

turn to the light to describe what we never will find,

I'm a vampire clinging to the sounds for a fast high.

 

All the lies and fantasies I picked to describe what is right

coldplay-what if

 

What if there was no light

Nothing wrong, nothing right

What if there was no time

And no reason or rhyme

What if you should decide

That you don’t want me there by your side

That you don’t want me there in your life

 

What if I got it wrong

And no poem or song

Could put right what I got wrong

Or make you feel I belong

What if you should decide

That you don’t want me there by your side

That you don’t want me there in your life

 

Oooh, that’s right

Let’s take a breath, jump over the side

Oooh, that’s right

How can you know it if you don’t even try

Oooh, that’s right

 

Every step that you take

Could be your biggest mistake

It could bend or it could break

But that’s the risk that you take

What if you should decide

That you don’t want me there in your life

That you don’t want me there by your side

 

Ooh, that’s right

Let’s take a breath, jump over the side

Ooh, that’s right

How can you know it when you don’t even try

Ooh, that’s right

 

Ooh, that’s right

Let’s take a breath, jump over the side

Ooh, that’s right

You know the darkness always turns into light

Ooh, that’s right

Hello Saferide - The quiz

 

You look nice alright

and I like the way you nod after everything I say

like it actually means something

to you

 

And I like your record collection

Townes and Jens with a hint of Rickie Lee

And you've cleaned up the bathroom, made a really nice soup

but a bit too much sci-fi in your shelf with DVDs

 

But there’s some things you need to know about me:

I'm weak right now, real weak right now

I need proof before I dare to open this heart

so I prepared a quiz for you:

 

Would you freak out if I said I liked you?

Do you walk the line?

Is your IQ higher than your neighbour’s?

And is it very much higher than mine?

 

Can you sleep when I grind my teeth?

Do you look away if I slob when I eat?

Will you let me be myself?

Can you at all times wear socks?

because I’m still scared of feet

 

Do you talk in the middle of Seinfeld?

Do you read more than two books a month?

Do you get racist or sexist when you’ve had a few?

Is it fine if I make more money than you?

 

Have you slept with any people I work with?

Is there anyone you'd rather wish I'd be?

Do you still keep pictures of old girlfriends?

Are they prettier than me?

 

And if I'd fall, would you pick me up?

If I fall, will you pick me up?

'Cause it's a bittersweet symphony this life,

Trying to make ends meet, you're a slave to the money then you die,

I'll take you down the only road I've ever been down,

You know the one that takes you to the places where all the veins meet, yeah,

No change, I can't change, I can't change, I can't change,

but I'm here in my mold , I am here in my mold,

But I'm a million different people from one day to the next,

I can't change my mold, no, no, no, no, no

 

Well, I've never prayed,

But tonight I'm on my knees, yeah,

I need to hear some sounds that recognize the pain in me, yeah,

I let the melody shine, let it cleanse my mind , I feel free now,

But the airwaves are clean and there's nobody singing to me now,

 

No change, I can't change, I can't change, I can't change,

but I'm here in my mold , I am here with my mold,

And I'm a million different people from one day to the next,

I can't change my mold, no, no, no, no, no

Radiohead - Exit Music (For A Film)

 

Wake from your sleep

The drying of your tears

Today we escape

We escape

 

Pack and get dressed

Before your father hears us

Before all hell breaks loose

 

Breathe, keep breathing

Don't lose your nerve

Breathe, keep breathing

I can't do this alone

 

Sing us a song

A song to keep us warm

There's such a chill

Such a chill

 

You can laugh

A spineless laugh

We hope your rules and wisdom choke you

 

Now we are one in everlasting peace

 

We hope that you choke, that you choke

We hope that you choke, that you choke

We hope that you choke, that you choke

It's hard for me to say the things

I want to say sometimes

There's no one here but you and me

And that broken old street light

Lock the doors

We'll leave the world outside

All I've got to give to you

Are these five words when I

 

Chorus:

Thank you for loving me

For being my eyes

When I couldn't see

For parting my lips

When I couldn't breathe

Thank you for loving me

Thank you for loving me

 

I never knew I had a dream

Until that dream was you

When I look into your eyes

The sky's a different blue

Cross my heart

I wear no disguise

If I tried, you'd make believe

That you believed my lies

 

Chorus:

Thank you for loving me

For being my eyes

When I couldn't see

For parting my lips

When I couldn't breathe

Thank you for loving me

 

You pick me up when I fall down

You ring the bell before they count me out

If I was drowning you would part the sea

And risk your own life to rescue me

 

Solo

 

Lock the doors

We'll leave the world outside

All I've got to give to you

Are these five words when I

 

Chorus:

Thank you for loving me

For being my eyes

When I couldn't see

You parted my lips

When I couldn't breathe

Thank you for loving me

 

When I couldn't fly

Oh, you gave me wings

You parted my lips

When I couldn't breathe

Thank you for loving me

U2-with or without you

 

See the stone set in your eyes

See the thorn twist in your side

I wait for you

 

Sleight of hand and twist of fate

On a bed of nails she makes me wait

And I wait without you

 

With or without you

With or without you

 

Through the storm we reach the shore

You give it all but I want more

And Im waiting for you

 

With or without you

With or without you

I cant live

With or without you

 

And you give yourself away

And you give yourself away

And you give

And you give

And you give yourself away

 

My hands are tied

My body bruised, shes got me with

Nothing to win and

Nothing left to lose

 

And you give yourself away

And you give yourself away

And you give

And you give

And you give yourself away

 

With or without you

With or without you

I cant live

With or without you

 

With or without you

With or without you

I cant live

With or without you

The Perishers - Sway

 

I talk to you as to a friend

I hope that’s what you’ve come to be

It feels as though we’ve made amends

Like we found a way eventually

 

It was you who picked the pieces up

When I was a broken soul

And then glued meback together

Returned to me what others stole

 

I don’t wanna hurt you

I don’t wanna make you sway

Like I know I’ve done before

I will not do it anymore

I’ve always been a dreamer

I've had my head among the clouds

Now that I’m coming down

Won’t you be my solid ground?

 

I look at you and see a friend

I hope that’s what you wanna be

Are we back now where it all began?

Have you finally forgiven me?

 

You gathered my dreams in

When they all blew away

And then tricked them back into me

You saved me I was almost dead

Kent - Protection

 

I tried so hard to make you smile

For once I tried to be myself

I made you scared, I made you cry

So I never tried again

And you tried to tell me how you feel

I couldn't hear you say a thing

You tried to tell me how you feel

I wasn't listening

I wasn't listening

 

It took me twenty-nine years

to reach perfection

They fill us with fear

computerised rejections

Your voice disappears

On a bad connection

It gets lonely out here

I need protection, please

Are you protecting me

 

Now I found a way to make you smile

pretending I am someone else

Cause I really missed your smile

more than I missed myself

You found a way to keep it inside

to a point where you can't feel a thing

and silence suits us fine

Well, we're not listening

No, we're not listening

 

It took me twenty-nine years

to reach perfection

They fill us with fear

computerised rejections

Your voice disappears

On a bad connection

It gets lonely out here

Are you protecting me(lonely out here)

Are you protecting me(fill us with fear)

Are you protecting me(your voice disappears)

Are you protecting me(lonely out here)

Are you protecting me(lonely out here)

Are you protecting me

A Message

 

 

My song is love

Love to the loveless shown

And it goes up

You don’t have to be alone

 

Your heavy heart

Is made of stone

And it’s so hard to see clearly

You don’t have to be on your own

You don’t have to be on your own

 

And i’m not gonna take it back

And i’m not gonna say I don’t mean that

You’re the target that i’m aiming at

And I'll get that message home

 

My song is love

My song is love unknown

And i’m on fire for you, clearly

You don’t have to be alone

You don’t have to be on your own

 

And i’m not gonna take it back

And i’m not gonna say I don’t mean that

You’re the target that i’m aiming at

And i’m nothing on my own

Got to get that message home

 

And i’m not going to stand and wait

Not gonna leave it until it’s much too late

Oh, on a platform i’m gonna stand and say

That i’m nothing on my own

And I love you, please come home

 

My song is love, is love unknown

And i’ve got to get that message home

it's such a lovely song ...

Pearl Jam - Wishlist

I wish I was a neutron bomb, for once I could go off.

I wish I was a sacrifice but somehow still lived on.

I wish I was a sentimental ornamnet you hung on

The christmas tree, I wish I was the star that went on top,

I wish I was the evidence

I wish I was the grounds for fifty million hands up raised and opened toward the sky.

 

I wish I was a sailor with someone who waited for me.

I wish I was as fortunate, as fortunate as me.

I wish I was a messenger, and all the news is good.

I wish I was the full moon shining off your camaro's hood.

 

I wish I was an alien, at home behind the sun,

I wish I was the souvenir you kept your house key on.

I wish I was the pedal break that you depended on.

I wish I was the verb to trust, and never let you down.

 

I wish I was the radio song, the one that you turned up,

I wish, I wish, I wish, I wish,

I guess it never stops.

Not specifically lyrics I can relate to, but just lyrics that I find really inspirational.

 

 

Those who wish to follow me,

I welcome with my hands

And the red sun sinks at last

Into the hills of Gold

And peace to this young warrior

Without the sound of guns

 

 

If I could recollect before my hood days,

I'd sit and reminisce, thinking of bliss and the good days

I stop and stare at the younger,

My heart goes to 'em

They test what they stress that they under

 

And nowadays, things changed

Everyone's ashamed of the youth,

Cos the truth looks strange

And for me, it's reverse

We left them a world that's cursed, and it hurts

 

Cos any day, they'll push the button

And all the good men, like Malcom X and Bobbie Hunton die for

nothing

Thought that'd make me get teary, the world looks dreary

When finally, your eyes see it clearly

There's no need for you to fear me,

If you take your time to hear me

Maybe you could learn to cheer me

It ain't about black or white cos we human

I hope we see the light before it's ruined

 

Those who wish to follow me,

I welcome with my hands

And the red sun sets at last

Into the hills of Gold

And peace to this young warrior

Without the sound of guns

 

Tell me, do you see that old lady, ain't it sad

Livin' outta bags, but she's glad for the little things she

has

And over there, there's a lady

Crack got her crazy, yet she's givin' birth to her baby

I don't trip and let it fade me

From out of the frying pan, we jump into another form of

slavery

Even now, I get discouraged

Wonder if they take it all back, will I still keep the

courage

 

I refuse to be a role model,

I set goals, take control, drink out my own bottles

I made mistakes, but learned from every one

And when it's said and done, I bet this brother be a better

one

If I upset you, don't stress

Never forget that God isn't finished with me yet

I feel his hand on my brain, when I write rhymes

I go blind and let the Lord do his thing

 

But am I less Holy,

Cos I choose to puff a blunt, and drink a beer with my homies??

Before we find world peace, we gotta find peace and end the war

in the streets,

 

My ghetto gospel

 

Those who wish to follow me,

I welcome with my hands

And the red sun sets at last

Into the hills of Gold

And peace to this young warrior

Without the sound of guns

 

 

 

The style of music may not be to everyone's taste, but screw anyone who says Tupac Shakur wasn't an incredible and powerful lyricist.
