It's been a while, but I feel it is time for some music!
Please post up the lyrics of whatever song suits your mood!

:)
 
Here is my first entry!

Rapid Fire
By Cryonic Temple

In the deepest woods I run, I am frightened and alone
(I am so frightened and alone)
I am here defending my land, a million miles from home
(I am a million miles from home)
How can it be, it must be wrong, that the enemies of mine
(How can it be it must be wrong)
Are they a threat to us and the world, when they can't feed their children?
(are they enemies of me?)

Lies!
We are depraved!
Can we be wrong?
Is this the End?

Rapid fire - Waking up in the night!
Rapid fire - Terror of death rules the fight!
Rapid fire - It wakes you up and you cry!
Rapid fire - I hear the screams of those who die!


Politicians make their way for the money and the fame
(Their way of greed makes us die)
Sending people to their graves for a reason that's unknown
(They're sending people to the grave)
All day long I think of this and it makes me wanna scream
(No, it makes me wanna scream)
And to leave it all behind, for them to fight their wars
(For them to fight their wars)

Lies!
We are betrayed!
Can this be wrong?
It is the End?

Rapid fire - Waking up in the night!
Rapid fire - Terror of death rules the fight!
Rapid fire - It wakes you up and you cry!
Rapid fire - I hear the screams of those who die!

Don Johnson Big Band - Jah Jah Blow Job

Head first into the fire, see me cursing the entire world
I fire bullets out the mouth into a tire wall
Empires fall, others rise even higher, warfare
Is there to keep you scared in despair, more care
Is needed, i feed it in your system with a needle
Never clean it, breath in words when you read them
On a page, and engage with the rage, i proceeded
To write 'em on the walls and the call's not impeded
See them people with most are rarely opposed to having more
Frequently those who gleefully toast a famine or
Contaminated water are the ones who really haven't fought a
Moment, can't afford another man across the border
Order order in the courtroom! caught up in a cartoon
Moving toward a war, and the slaughter 'bout to start soon
All the people rise up before the record ends
Forgive-ah-me, jah bless, why i best make amends

Well it's a jah jah blow job
It's a jah jah blow job
Need to find your way back to the
Jah jah blow job

It's a jah jah blow job
It's a jah jah blow job
Need to find your way back to the
Jah jah blow job

Close up the border, declare a state of alert
I'll take your president for hostage with a pen, it's gonna hurt
And make him sit down at a table, lock his ankles to the chair
Listen to him screaming for his ***** tony where?
Sounds fair, now the picture getting clearer by the minute
Smack a pen upon a table, dial a call to the senate
When it rings, four times, there's an answer
Outline my demands, give 'em a name, it's "the dancer"
Here's a collection of treaties you will sign
If you don't, you're running out of time
What you complain about? so they work a little harder
For the same amount, it's fair trade, not a grain of doubt
We keep the money up north and move the labour south
And never let it bother me when pulling my new trainers out
Cause you see it doesn't make it more certain
The world's biggest killers operate behind a curtain
Suffering loud, suffering quiet, tougher than iron
An eye for an eye and i keep seeing more terror
So the world turns ever on its axis
One man struggles while another one relaxes
We need a leader with the voice of horace andy
Singing on the balkans, the pyrenees and andies
No professor, not a doctor, not a preacher
Not a politician, not a schoolteacher
But people hear him in the city and the country
All them want is music, and the music make 'em run free

CHORUS

We will kill your leaders and bring you democracy
Can't appreciate it? **** you, is it hard to see
We only want what is best for your people
Benevolent sequel, it only might seem cruel
When paratroopers who've been shooting down like
Hell from above, regroup and start looting for fun
Run to village after village, pillaging without aim
And gain advantage, the damage will outweigh
The nerve of going to war against the will of the world
Turn on the television, see them kill another little girl
Was she a military target? collateral damage?
Killed by a missile in the city market
Now it's darker overhead than it's ever been
Severing the world body from the head, endeavouring
On a crusade for hussein and who's sane and who's not?
I swear, these cruise missiles are all aimed at the top

CHORUS
 
Sorry
By Dim Mak

Are you sorry?
Sorry that you're playing the sheep you fool
Just a reflection in a shallow pool

Are you sorry?
Sorry that I'm seeing right through you too
All smoke and mirrors It's nothing new

Are you sorry?
Sorry that you get no respect it's true
Your masquerade isn't helping you

Are you sorry?
Sorry that you're sick of your weakness too
Don't have the courage to see you through

Are you sorry?
Sorry while you slept the cancer grew
Devoured what spirit was left in you

I've seen your lies, devoured
Seen your disguise, devoured
I've seen your pride, devoured
Seen your spirit die, devoured

I've seen hope, devoured
Your will to cope, devoured
Your spirit broke, devoured
Neck is in a rope, devoured

I've seen your soul, devoured
No longer whole, devoured
Alone and cold, devoured
In the blackest hole, devoured

I've seen your faith, devoured
You dug the grave, devoured
Buried your fate, devoured
Made yourself a slave, devoured


Are you sorry?
Sorry when I look you in the face
All I see is your disgrace

Are you sorry?
Sorry that you can't look me in the eye
Your eyes just dart, but won't meet mine

Are you sorry?
Sorry that you're really alone you see
A ghost of flesh is all you'll ever be

Are you sorry?
Sorry that you never could find the strength
Tough mother you must be

I've seen your lies, devoured
Seen your disguise, devoured
I've seen your pride, devoured
Seen your spirit die, devoured

I've seen hope, devoured
Your will to cope, devoured
Your spirit broke, devoured
Neck is in a rope, devoured

I've seen your soul, devoured
No longer whole, devoured
Alone and cold, devoured
In the blackest hole, devoured

I've seen your faith, devoured
You dug the grave, devoured
Buried your fate, devoured
Made yourself a slave, devoured


You're just digging graves

You don't exist

You can't be saved

Weak won't survive

Metallica - Fade to Black


Life it seems, will fade away
Drifting further every day
Getting lost within myself
Nothing matters no one else
I have lost the will to live
Simply nothing more to give
There is nothing more for me
Need the end to set me free

Things are not what they used to be
Missing one inside of me
Deathly lost, this can't be real
Cannot stand this hell I feel
Emptiness is filing me
To the point of agony
Growing darkness taking dawn
I was me, but now He's gone

No one but me can save myself, but it to late
Now I can't think, think why I should even try
Yesterday seems as though it never existed
Death Greets me warm, now I will just say good-bye.
 
Youth of Today by Youth of Today.

The kids will make it happen
we're starting a new way
people
in the world today
physically strong
morally straight
positive youth
we're the youth of today
never fight each other
use our heads before our fists
then we'll kick down all the barriers
of hate and prejudice
live fast die young was just a fad,
for a bunch of losers
who didn't take care.
i'm gonna live my life,
breath every breath,
look towards the future
and move straight ahead.
 
David Gray - Slow Motion

While I was watching, you did a slow dissolve
While I was watching, you did a slow dissolve
While I was watching, you did a slow dissolve

Did I imagine, or do the walls have eyes
Did I imagine, they held us hypnotized
Did I imagine, or do the walls have eyes

Life in slow motion, somehow it don't feel real
Life in slow motion, somehow it don't feel real
Life in slow motion, somehow it don't feel real

Snowflakes are falling, I'll catch them in my hands
Snowflakes are falling, I'll catch them in my hands
Snowflakes are falling, now you're my long lost friend
 
In the Name of God
Dream Theater

How can this be?
Why is he the chosen one?
Saint gone astray
With a scepter and a gun

Learn to believe
In the mighty and the strong
Come bleed the beast
Follow me it won't be long

Listen when the prophet
Speaks to you
Killing in the name of God

Passion
Twisting faith into violence
In the name of God

Straight is the path
Leading to your salvation
Slaying the weak
Ethnic elimination

Any day we'll all be
Swept away
You'll be saved
As long as you obey

Lies
Tools of the devil inside
Written in Holy disguise
Meant to deceive and divide
Us all

Listen when the prophet
Speaks to you
Killing in the name of God

Passion
Twisting faith into violence
In the name of God

Blurring the lines
Between virtue and sin
They can't tell
Where God ends
And mankind begins

They know no other
Life but this
From the cradle
They are claimed

Listen when the prophet
Speaks to you
Killing in the name of God

Passion
Twisting faith into violence
In the name of God

Hundreds of believers
Lured into a doomsday cult
All would perish
In the name of God

Self-proclaimed messiah
Led his servants
To their death
Eighty murdered
In the name of God

Forty sons and daughters
Un-consenting plural wives
Perversions
In the name of God

Underground religion
Turning toward
The mainstream light
Blind devotion
In the name of God

Justifying violence
Citing from the Holy Book
Teaching hatred
In the name of God

Listen when the prophet
Speaks to you
Killing in the name of God

Passion
Twisting faith into violence
In the name of God

In the name of God

Religious beliefs
Fanatic obsession
Does following faith
Lead us to violence?

Unyielding crusade
Divine revelation
Does following faith
Lead us to violence?

Mine eyes have seen the glory of the coming of the Lord;
He is trampling out the vintage where the grapes of wrath are stored;
He hath loosed the fateful lightning of His terrible swift sword;
His truth is marching on.

Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!
Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!
Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!
His truth is marching on.
 
Here's a song I just heard for the first time a few weeks ago but I really like it, Elliot Smith, Angeles:

Someone's always coming around here trailin' some new kill
Says I seen a picture on a hundred dollar bill
What's a game of chance to you
Him is one
Of real skill
So glad to meet you Angeles

Picking up the ticket shows there's money to be made
Go on lose the gamble that's the history of the trade
Did you add up all the cards left to play
To zero
Sign up for evil Angeles

Don't start me tryin' now!
Uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh
Cus I'm all over it, Angeles

I can make you satisfied in everything you do
All your secret wishes could right now be coming true
Be forever with my poison arms
Around you

No one's gonna fool around with us
No one's gonna fool around with us
No one's gonna fool around with us
No one's gonna fool around with us

And I'm so glad to meet you Angeles
No one's gonna fool around with us
No one's gonna fool around with us . . .

It wasn't until I googled the lyrics to this song that I even heard of him.

Has anyone ever woken up with a snippet of a song running through their head and had it stuck there all day? That happened to me today with that song, and I just heard it on the radio.

My all-time favorite song, however, is One by Metallica:

I cant remember anything
Cant tell if this is true or dream
Deep down inside I feel to scream
This terrible silence stops me

Now that the war is through with me
I'm waking up I can not see
That there is not much left of me
Nothing is real but pain now

Hold my breath as I wish for death
Oh please God, wake me

Back in the womb its much too real
In pumps life that I must feel
But can't look forward to reveal
Look to the time when I'll live

Fed through the tube that sticks in me
Just like a wartime novelty
Tied to machines that make me be
Cut this life off from me

Hold my breath as I wish for death
Oh please God, wake me

Now the world is gone I'm just one
Oh God, help me
Hold my breath as I wish for death
Oh please God wake me

Darkness imprisoning me
All that I see
Absolute horror
I cannot live
I cannot die
Trapped in myself
Body my holding cell

Landmine has taken my sight
Taken my speech
Taken my hearing
Taken my arms
Taken my legs
Taken my soul
Left me with life in hell

This is my CFC smilie version of the first 2 verses.
 
I've always found this song very touching.

Bright Eyes - No Lies, Just Love:

It was in the march of the winter I turned seventeen
That I bought those pills
I thought I would need
And I wrote a letter to my family
Said it's not your fault
And you've been good to me
Just lately I've been feeling
Like I don't belong
Like the ground's not mine to walk upon
And I've heard that music
Echo through the house
Where my grandmother drank
By herself
And I sat watching a flower
As it was withering
I was embarrassed by its honesty
So I'd prefer to be remembered as a smiling face
Not this ****ing wreck
That's taken its place

So please forgive what I have done
No you can't stay mad at the setting sun
Cause we all get tired, I mean eventually
There is nothing left to do but sleep

But spring came bearing sunlight
Those persuasive rays
So I gave myself a few more days
My salvation it came, quite suddenly
When Justin spoke very plainly
He said "Of course it's your decision,
But just so you know,
If you decide to leave,
Soon I will follow"

I wrote this for a baby
Who has yet to be born
My brother's first child
I hope that womb's not too warm
Cause it's cold out here
And it'll be quite a shock
To breathe this air
To discover loss
So I'd like to make some changes
Before you arive
So when your new eyes meet mine
They won't see no lies
Just love.
Just love.

I will be pure
No, no, I know i will be pure
Like snow, like gold
 
Rainbow
Long Live Rock N Roll

At the end of a dream
If you know where I mean
When the mist just starts to clear

In a similar way
At the end of today
I could feel the sound of writing on the wall
It cries for you
It's the least that you can do

Like a spiral on the wind
I can hear it screamin' in my mind
Long live Rock and Roll
Long live Rock 'n' Roll
Long live Rock and Roll

in a different time
When the words didn't rhyme
You could never quite be sure
Then on with the change
It was simple but strange
And you knew the feeling seemed to say it all
It cries for you
It's the least that you can do
Like a spiral on the wind
I can hear it screamin' in my mind
Long live Rock and Roll
Long live Rock 'n' Roll
Long live Rock and Roll

If you suddenly see
What has happened to me
You should spread the word around

And tell everyone here
That it's perfectly clear
They can sail above it all on what they've found
It cries for you
It's the best that you can do
Like a sound that's everywhere
I can hear it screaming through the air
Long live Rock and Roll
Long live Rock 'n' Roll
Long live Rock and Roll
 
Man in the Wilderness
Styx

Another year has passed me by
Still I look a myself and cry
What kind of man have I become?
All of the years I've spent in search of myself
And I'm still in the dark
'Cause I can't seem to find the light alone

Sometimes I feel like a man in the wilderness
I'm a lonely soldier off to war
Sent away to die - never quite knowing why
Sometimes it makes no sense at all

Ten Thousand people look my way
But they can't see the way that I feel
Nobody even cares to try
I spend my life and sell my soul on the road
And I'm still in the dark
'Cause I can't seem to find the light alone

Sometimes I feel like a man in the wilderness
I'm a lonely sailor lost at sea
Drifting with the tide
Never quite knowing why
Sometimes it makes no sense at all

(I'm alive)
Looking for love I'm a man with emotion
(And my heart's on fire)
I'm dying of thirst in the middle of the ocean
I'm alive!
 
Back From The Days
By Machine Men

Do we ever give any thoughts for the heroes of our days?
Who fought for freedom and the future?
Prayed in the dark - and rain at night washed their tears away
Saved a wounded man, turned towards the bullet rain
And took the last step on our free land

Souls are gone - in the unknown graves,
who brings them back from the days?
Left in the past with other braves...
fought for us, against fear, against the machines...
We don't know how it feels to be hand in hand with death


Guns blazed on the enemy line, smoke filled the sky
He knew for sure there was someone else
Who watched the moon but not through the dust and smoke
Far away from battlefields praying for a wish,
Gazing up to the stars...

Souls are gone - in the unknown graves,
who brings them back from the days?
Left in the past with other braves...
fought for us, against fear, against the machines...
We don't know how it feels to be hand in hand with death


The whisper beyond the grave in her dream
"Save your tears and your worst fear..."

Souls are gone - in the unknown graves,
who brings them back from the days?
Left in the past with other braves...
fought for us, against fear, against the machines...
We don't know how it feels to be hand in hand with death

Dust Brothers - This Is Your Life

And you open the door and you step inside
Where inside our hearts
Now imagine your pain as a white ball of healing light
That's right, your pain
The pain itself is a white ball of healing light
I don't think so

This is your life, good to the last drop
Doesn't get any better than this
This is your life and it's ending one minute at a time

This isn't a seminar, this isn't a weekend retreat
Where you are now you can't even imagine what the bottom will be like
Only after disaster can we be resurrected
It's only after you've lost everything that you're free to do anything
Nothing is static, everything is evolving, everything is falling apart

This is your life, this is your life, this is your life, this is your life
Doesn't get any better than this
This is your life, this is your life, this is your life, this is your life
And it and it's ending one-minute at a time

You are not a beautiful and unique snowflake
You are the same decaying organic matter as everything else
We are all part of the same compost heap
We are the all singing, all dancing, crap of the world

You are not your bank account
You are not the clothes you wear
You are not the contents of your wallet
You are not your bowel cancer
You are not your grande latte
You are not the car you drive
You are not your ******* khaki's

You have to give up, you have to give up
You have to realize that someday you will die
Until you know that, you are useless

I say let me never be complete
I say may I never be content
I say deliver me from Swedish furniture
I say deliver me from clever arts
I say deliver me from clear skin and perfect teeth
I say you have to give up
I say evolve, and let the chips fall where they may

This is your life, this is your life, this is your life, this is your life
Doesn't get any better than this
This is your life, this is your life, this is your life, this is your life
And it and it's ending one-minute at a time

You have to give up, you have to give up
I want you to hit me as hard as you can
I want you to hit me as hard as you can

Welcome to Fight Club
If this is your first night, you have to fight
 
Falling
By Valley's Eve

North winds brought him here,
While the devil was laughing.
Stealing the wings of the storm only by his own,
Carrying the dust of death on his skin.
Dust from faraway deserts,
Death - burned into his heart.
Free and wild, without existing law,
What he feel and what he thinks.
Known only by the wind...

When I'm falling...
In my dreams again
When I'm falling...
Down on my knees
When I'm falling...
And pray to my gods
When I'm falling...
I will see your face
When I'm falling...
And I pray on the ashes of my gods...

Baptized in his own blood,
Selling his soul to the night.
Holding the reign of the iron cross,
Carrying the death's head with wings
The evil look becomes his fist
As a wolf smelling the blood
He was seduced only by hate
Free and wild, without existing law
What he feel and what he thinks
Known only by the wind...

When I'm falling...
In my dreams again
When I'm falling...
Down on my knees
When I'm falling...
And pray to my gods
When I'm falling...
I will see your face
When I'm falling...
And I pray on the ashes of my gods...

Common- Come Close

[Verse: Common]
Are we living in a dream world?
Are your eyes still green girl?
I know your sick and tired of arguing
But you can't keep it bottled in
Jealousy, we got to swallow it
Your heart and mind baby follow it
Smile, happiness you could model it
And when you feel opposite
I just want you to know
Your whole being is beautiful
I'ma do the best I can do
Cause i'm the best when i'm with you

[Chorus: Mary J. Blige]
Come close to me baby
Let your love hold you
I know this world is crazy
What's it without you

[Verse: Common]
Put down your bags love
I know in the past love
Has been sort of hard in you
But I see the God in you
I just want to nurture it
Though this love may hurt a bit
We dealing wit this water love
You even give my daughter love
I want to build a tribe wit you
Protect and provide for you
Truth is I can't hide from you
The pimp in me
May have to die with you

[Chorus]

[Bridge]
I know what you're thinking, you're on my mind
You're right, you're right, you're right
You promise so fast you just might take flight
Hope your not tired, tonight, tonight

[Verse: Common]
You help me to discovery me
I just want you to put trust in me
I kind of laugh when you cuss at me
The aftermath is you touching me
It's destiny that we connected girl
You and i we can affect the world
I'm tired of the fast lane
I want you to have my last name

[Chorus]

[Bridge] (2x)
