DOA - Foo Fighters

Oh you know I did it
It's over and I feel fine
Nothing you could say is gonna change my mind
Waiting and I wait at the longest night
Nothing like the taste to sweet decline

I was down, I fell, I fell so fast
Dropping like the grains in an hourglass
Never say forever cause nothing lasts
Dancing with the thorns of my buried past
Nevermind there's nothing I can do
Bet your life there's something killing you


It's a shame we have to die my dear
No ones getting out of here, alive
This time
What a way to go, but have no fear
No ones getting out of here, alive
This time

Finished, I'm getting you off my chest
Made you come clean in a dirty dress
A promise is a promise you kept in check
Hard to cross a heart that beats its best

Take a good hard look for the very last time
The very last one in a very long line
Only took a second to say goodbye
Then the pleasure 'bout the pleasure's been mine, all mine

Nevermind there's nothing I can do
Bet your life there's something killing you

It's a shame we have to die my dear
No ones getting out of here, alive
This time
What a way to go, but have no fear
No ones getting out of here, alive
This time

Ain't no way, DOA
Ain't no way, DOA

Take a good hard look for the very last time
The very last one in a very long line
Only took a second to say goodbye
Then the pleasure 'bout the pleasure's been mine, all mine

Nevermind there's nothing I can do
Bet your life there's something killing you

It's a shame we have to die my dear
No ones getting out of here, alive
This time
What a way to go, but have no fear
No ones getting out of here, alive
This time

It's a shame we have to disappear
No ones getting out of here, alive
This time This time This time

Time for some James methinks......I'm torn between Tomorrow ande Getting Away with it.....so I shall post both :monster: I'm going to see them in December so Im going through a James phase again :wacky:

Tomorrow


I see you falling
How long to go till you hit the ground
You keep on screaming
Dont you see me here.. am I a ghost to you?

Now your grips to strong
You can't Catch love with a net or a gun
Gotta keep faith that your path will change
Gotta keep faith that your luck will change tomorrow
Tomorrow

Why are you phoning
What am I to do when you're miles away
Youre always calling from the darkest moons
And were both scared

Now your grips to strong
Catch love with a net or a gun
Gotta keep faith that your path will change
Gotta keep faith that your love will change

Now your grips to strong
Catch love with a net or a gun
Gotta keep faith that your path will change
Gotta keep faith that your love will change tomorrow

Im just out of your range
Tomorrow
All your sufferings in vain
Tomorrow
Lalala

Now your grips to strong
Catch love with a net or a gun
Gotta keep faith that your path will change
Gotta keep faith that your love will change tomorrow

I got out of your range
Tomorrow
All your suffering seems vain
Tomorrow
Tomorrow
Some forgiveness now
Tomorrow
Loves no sacred chao

Getting Away With It (all messed up)

Are you aching for the blade
That’s o.k.
Were insured
Are you aching for the grave
That’s o.k.
Were insured

Were getting away with it
All messed up
Getting away with it
All messed up
That’s the living

Daniel’s saving grace
She’s out in deep water
Hope he’s a good swimmer

Daniel plays his ace
Deep inside his temple
He knows how to surf her

Were getting away with it
All messed up
Getting away with it
All messed up
That’s the living

Daniel drinks his weight
Drinks like richard burton
Dance like john travolta, now.

Daniel’s saving grace
He was all but drowning
Now they live like dolphins

Getting away with it
All messed up
Getting away with it
All messed up
That’s the living
Getting away with it
Getting away with it
Getting away with it
That’s the living
That’s the living
 
Friend of a Friend - Foo Fighters

He needs a quiet room
with a lock to keep him
in its just a quiet room
and he's there
he plays an old guitar
with a coin found by the phone
it was his friends guitar
that he played
hmm mmm mmm
he's never been in love
but he knows just what love is
he says never mind
and no one speaks
he thinks he drinks too much
cause when he tells his two best friends
I think I drink too much
no one speaks
no one speaks
no one speaks
hmm hmm mmm mmm mmm hmm hmm mmm
he plays an old guitar
with a coin found by the phone
it was his friends guitar
that he played
when he plays
no one speaks
no one speaks
and he plays
no one speaks.
 
Feeling Good - Muse's Version :neomon:

Birds flying high
You know how I feel
Sun in the sky
You know how I feel
Reeds driftin' on by
You know how I feel
It's a new dawn
It's a new day
It's a new life

And I'm feeling good

Dragonfly out in the sun you know what I mean, don't you know
Butterflies all havin' fun you know what I mean
Sleep in peace when the day is done
And this old world is a new world
And a bold world
For me

Stars when you shine
You know how I feel
Scent of the pine
You know how I feel
Yeah freedom is mine
And I know how I feel
It's a new dawn
It's a new day
It's a new life
For me

And I'm feeling good

I once considered this the best song ever created.

Between the Buried and Me - Mordecai

Asleep mid-sentence- the words fell apart.
No one is listening anyway.
This day will soon turn black
and my "wants and needs" will spill on me burning ashes.
I learned to be selfish today...
I learned to be alive.
These things I care for are for my personal gain
my personal happiness only.
Why should I sit in your chair and satisfy your standards.
I've done it all before and I've confused myself a thousand times.
The tragic day that I call morality just doesn't do it for me anymore.
The day will turn black and I will have either lived or died.
Asleep mid-sentence- my words fall to the ground.
Swept into this dreamland.
Economic satisfaction.
Never succeed.
But happiness has its place.
Justice will not lie in your corner.
Throw myself in the corned;
I have nothing to complain about here.
Tragic day seems too peaceful to most,
spoiled ambitions turned my heart to black, black.
Living dreams, loving dreams,
awakening to what I've always dreamt of.
Living dreams, loving dreams,
awakening to what I've always dreamt of.
The familliar sound, the familliar sound of the lovely love
from the love of my life will keep the notes coming.
From the reciting of the show, from the to plip and shevanel,
from the grind that annoys, and the sarcasm they all hate...
 
OneRepublic - Stop and Stare

this town is colder now, i think it's sick of us
it's time to make our move, i'm shakin' off the rust
i've got my heart set on anywhere but here
i'm staring down myself, counting up the years
steady hands, just take the wheel
and every glance is killing me
time to make one last appeal for the life i lead

stop and stare
i think i'm moving but i go nowhere
yeah, i know that everyone gets scared
but i've become what i can't be, oh
stop and stare
you start to wonderwhy you're 'here' not 'there'
and you'd give anything to get what's fair
but fair ain't what you really need
oh, can you see what i see?

they're tryin' to come back, all my senses push
untie the weight bags, i never thought i could
steady feet, don't fail me now
gonna run till you can't walk
something pulls my focus out
and i'm standing down

stop and stare
i think i'm moving but i go nowhere
yeah i know that everyone gets scared
but i've become what i can't be, oh
stop and stare
you start to wonder why you're 'here' not 'there'
and you'd give anything to get what's fair
but fair ain't what you really need
oh, you don't need

what you need, what you need, what you need

stop and stare
i think i'm moving but i go nowhere
yeah i know that everyone gets scared
but i've become what i can't be
oh, do you see what i see?
 
Natasha Farrow - Calling To The Night


Through the night, to the day
When everything is gone
Carry the soul away from the dryness

In the sun we see, fighting over lives
All our dreams and wishes
We send home for safe keeping
Fighting for what’s right

Calling to the night, to dream
Forgain in the light
Waiting for a storm to rise
Feel the isolation fleeting
Calling to the night, to be, or not to be fighting here
Leaving without you, leaving my soul behind
Calling to the night, corners of golden crown fade with time

Calling to the night, for us, for every single life
All the ashes of men remain as a perfect memory
Calling to the night

But the heart will remain, as a silhouette of time
Hear the ringing echoes in the splitting horizon
Calling to the night
 
SKILLET LYRICS

"Whispers In The Dark"

Despite the lies that you're making
Your love is mine for the taking
My love is
Just waiting
To turn your tears to roses

I will be the one that's gonna hold you
I will be the one that you run to
My love is
A burning, consuming fire

[Chorus:]
No
You'll never be alone
When darkness comes I'll light the night with stars
Hear my whispers in the dark
No
You'll never be alone
When darkness comes you know I'm never far
Hear my whispers in the dark

You feel so lonely and ragged
You lay here broken and naked
My love is
Just waiting
To clothe you in crimson roses

I will be the one that's gonna find you
I will be the one that's gonna guide you
My love is
A burning, consuming fire
 
3 Doors Down - Your Arms Feel Like Home


I think I walked to close to love and now I'm falling in
I felt so many things this weary soul can’t take
Maybe you just caught me by surprise
The first time I looked into your eyes...​

There’s a life inside of me that I can feel again
It’s the only thing that takes me where I've never been
I don’t care if I lost everything that I have known
It don’t matter where I lay my head tonight your arms feel like home...feel like home...​

This life ain't the fairy tale we both thought it would be
I can see your smiling face as its staring back at me
I know we both see these changes now...
I know we both understand somehow...​

There’s a life inside of me that I can feel again
It’s the only thing that takes me where I've never been
I don’t care if I lost everything that I have known
It don’t matter where I lay my head tonight your arms feel like home...they feel like home to me... (Just hold onto me)...​

There’s a life inside of me that I can feel again
It’s the only thing that takes me where I've never been
I don’t care if I lost everything that I have known
It don’t matter where I lay my head tonight your arms feel like home... feel like home...they feel like home​

Michael Jackson - Earth Song

What about sunrise?
What about rain?
What about all the things that you said we were to gain?
What about killing fields,
Is there a time?
What about all the things that you said were yours and mine?
Did you ever stop to notice,
All the blood we've shed before?
Did you ever stop to notice,
That crying Earth is weeping shores?

Aaaaaaaaaaah Ooooooooooh
Aaaaaaaaaaah Ooooooooooh

What have we done to the world?
Look what we've done,
What about all the peace that you pledge your only son?
What about flowering fields
Is there a time?
What about all the dreams that you said were yours and mine?

Aaaaaaaaaaah Oooooooooooh
Aaaaaaaaaaah Oooooooooooh

I used to dream
I used to glance beyondthe stars,
But now I don't know where we are
Although I know we drifted far

Aaaaaaaaaaah Ooooooooooh
Aaaaaaaaaaah Ooooooooooh

Aaaaaaaaaaah Ooooooooooh
Aaaaaaaaaaah Ooooooooooh

Hey, what about yesterday?

(What about us)

What about the sea?

(What about us)

Heaven's falling down

(What about us)

I can't even braethe

(What about it)

What about animals?

(What about us)

We've turned their kingdoms to dust

(What about us)

What about elephants

(What about us)

Have we lost their trust?

(What about us)

What about the woods?

(What about us)

It's our natures womb!

(What about us)

Where did we go wrong?

(Oooo)

Someone tell me why?
What about crying whales?

(What about us)

We're ravaging their seas

(What about us)

What about children dying?

(What about us)

Can't hear them cry?

(What about us)

What about the man?

(What about us)

What about the crying man?

(What about us)

What about Abraham?

(What about us)

What about death again?

(What about us)

Do we give a damn?

I love that song :neomon:

Britney Spears - I'm not a Girl

I used to think
I had the answers to everything
But now I know
That life doesn't always go my way, yeah
Feels like I'm caught in the middle
That's when I realize

I'm not girl
Not yet a woman,
All I need is time
A moment that is mine
While I'm in between

I'm not a girl

There's no needt protect me,
It's time that I
Learned to face this on my own
I've seen so much more than you know
So don't tell me to shut my eyes

I'm not a girl
Not yet a woman
All I need is time
A moment that is mine
While I'm in between

I'm not a girl

But if you look at me closely
You will see it in my eyes
his girl will always ind her way

I'm not girl
I'm not a girl don't tell me what to believe
Not yet a woman
I'm just tring to find a woman in me, yeah
All I need is time
Whoa, all I need is time
A moment that is mine
While I'm in between

I'm not a girl
Not yet a woman
All I need is time
A moment that is mine
While I'm in between

I'm not a girl

Ooooh, not yet a woman

Highway to the Danger Zone - Kenny Loggins

Revvin' up your engine
Listen to her howlin' roar
Metal under tension
Beggin' you to touch and go

Highwaaaaaaaaay to the Danger Zoneeeeeee
Rideeeeeeeeeeee into the Danger Zoneeeeee

Headin' into twilight
Spreadin' out her wings tonight
She got you jumpin' off the track
And shovin' into overdrive

Highwaaaaaaaaay to the Danger Zoneeeeeeee
I'll take you
Right into the Danger Zoneeeeeeeee

You'll never say hello to you
Until you get it on the red line overload
You'll never know what you can do
Until you get it up as high as you can go

Out along the edges
Always where I burn to be
The further on the edge
The hotter the intensity

Highwaaaaaaaaaay to the Danger Zoneeeeee
Gonna take you
Right into the Danger Zoneeeeeeeeeee

Highway to the Danger Zoneeeeeeeee!!!!!!
 
Just one of the best ever created. Bob Dylan is a genius people!!!

The Rolling Stones - Like a Rolling Stone

Once upon a time you dressed so fine
Threw the bums a dime in your prime, didn't you?
Yeah, people'd call, say "Beware doll, you're bound to fall"
You thought they were just kiddin' you
You used to laugh about
Everybody that was hangin' out
And now you don't walk so proud
Now you don't talk so loud
About having to be scrounging for your next meal

How does it feel?
How does it feel?
To be on your own
With no direction home
A complete unknown
Just like a rolling stone?

You went to the finest schools all right, Miss Lonely
But you know you only used to get juiced in it
Nobody taught you how to live out on the street
But now you are gonna have to get used to it
You said you'd never compromise
With the mystery tramp, but now you realize
That he's not selling any alibis
As you stare into the vacuum of his eyes
And say: "Do you want to make a deal?"

How does it feel?
How does it feel?
To be on your own
With no direction home
Like a complete unknown
Just like a rolling stone?

How does it feel?
How does it feel?
To be on your own
With no direction home
A complete unknown
Just like a rolling stone?

Yeah, the princess on the steeple
All the pretty people
Drinkin', thinkin' that they got it made
Exchanging all kinds of precious gifts
but you'd better take that diamond ring,
You'd better pawn it babe
You used to be so amused
At Napoleon in rags and the language that he used
Now go to him now, he calls you, you can't refuse
When you got nothing, you got nothing to lose
You're invisible now, you got no secrets to conceal

How does it feel?
How does it feel?
To be on your own
With no direction home
A complete unknown
Just like a rolling stone?
 
Love Me Dead - Ludo

Love me cancerously, like a salt-sore soaked in the sea.
'High-maintenance' means you're a gluttonous queen,
Narcissistic and mean.
Kill me romantically, fill my soul with vomit
Then ask me for a piece of gum.
Bitter and dumb, you're my sugarplum.
You're awful, I love you!

She moves through moonbeams slowly.
She knows just how to hold me.
And when her edges soften, her body is my coffin.
I know she drains me slowly.
She wears me down to bones in bed...
Must be the sign on my head, it says,
"Oh, love me dead!" Love me dead!

You're a faith-healer on T.V.
You're an office park without any trees
Corporate and cold, gushing for gold - leave me alone.
You suck so passionately.
You're a parasitic, psycho, filthy creature
finger-bangin' my heart.
You call me up drunk. Does the fun ever start?
You're hideous... And sexy!

She moves through moonbeams slowly.
She knows just how to hold me.
And when her edges soften, her body is my coffin.
I know she drains me slowly.
She wears me down to bones in bed...
Must be the sign on my head, it says,
"Oh, love me dead!" Love me dead! Wow! Uh!

Love me cancerously.
Brrrot-dot-da-d-da-da! Brrrot-dot-da-d-da-da!
How's your new boy? Does he know about me?
You've got the mark of a the beast.
You're born of a jackal! You're beautiful!

She moves through moonbeams slowly.
She knows just how to hold me.
And when her edges soften, her body is my coffin.
I know she drains me slowly.
She wears me down to bones in bed...
Wha' 'bout the sigh on my head?
It says, "Oh, love me dead!" Love me dead!
Love me dead! Love me dead!
Oh... Love me dead!
 
Strange Fruit - Billie Holiday

Southern trees bear strange fruit,
Blood on the leaves and blood at the root,
Black bodies swinging in the southern breeze,
Strange fruit hanging from the poplar trees.

Pastoral scene of the gallant south,
The bulging eyes and the twisted mouth,
Scent of magnolias, sweet and fresh,
Then the sudden smell of burning flesh.

Here is fruit for the crows to pluck,
For the rain to gather, for the wind to suck,
For the sun to rot, for the trees to drop,
Here is a strange and bitter crop.
 
Strange Fruit - Billie Holiday
It's actually a poem written by someone else:neomon:

20 Years - Placebo

There are twenty years to go
And twenty ways to know
Who will wear,
Who will wear
The hat.

There are twenty years to go,
The best of all I hope.
Enjoy the ride, the medicine show.

And thems the breaks for we designer fakes.
We need to concentrate on more then meets the eye.

There are twenty years to go,
The faithful and the low.
The best of starts, the broken heart, the stone.
There are twenty years the go,
The punch drunk and the blow.
The worst of starts, the mercy part, the phone.

And thems the breaks for we designer fakes.
We need to concentrate on more then meets the eye.
And thems the breaks for we designer fakes.
But it's you I take 'cause your the truth not I.

There are twenty years to go.
A golden age I know.
But all will pass, will end to fast, you know.

There are twenty years to go,
And many friends I hope.
Though some may hold the rose some hold the rope.

And that's the end and that's the start of it.
That's the whole and that's the part of it.
That's the high and that's the heart of it.
That's the long and that's the short of it.
That's the best and that's the test in it.
That's the doubt, the doubt,
The trust in it.
That's the sight and that's the sound of it.
That's the gift and that's the trick in it.

You're the truth not I.

I do love Placebo... however I also love:

When You're Evil - Voltaire

When the Devil is too busy
And Death's a bit too much
They call on me by name you see,
For my special touch.
To the Gentlemen I'm Miss Fortune
To the Ladies I'm Sir Prize
But call me by any name
Any way it's all the same

I'm the fly in your soup
I'm the pebble in your shoe
I'm the demon in your bed
I'm a bump on every head
I'm the peel on which you slip
I'm a pin in every hip
I'm the thorn in your side
Makes you wriggle and writhe And it's so easy when you're evil
This is the life, you see
The Devil tips his hat to me
I do it all because I'm evil
And I do it all for free
Your tears are all the pay I'll ever need

While there's children to make sad
While there's candy to be had
while there's pockets left to pick
While there's grannies left to trip down the stairs
I'll be there, I'll be waiting 'round the corner
It's a game. I'm glad I'm in it
'Cause there's one born every minute
And it's so easy when you're evil
This is the life, you see
The Devil tips his hat to me
I do it all because I'm evil
And I do it all for free
Your tears are all the pay I'll ever need

I pledge my allegiance, to all things dark
And I promise on my damned soul
To do as I am told, Beelzebub
Has never seen a soldier quite like me
Not only does his job, but does it happily.

I'm the fear that keeps you awake
I'm the shadows on the wall
I'm the monsters they become
I'm the nightmare in your skull
I'm a dagger in your back
An extra turn upon the rack
I'm the quivering of your heart
A stabbing pain, a sudden start.

And it's so easy when you're evil
This is the life, you see
The Devil tips his hat to me
I do it all because I'm evil
And I do it all for free
Your tears are all the pay I'll ever need
And I do it all for free
Your tears are all the pay I'll ever need
And I do it all for free
Your tears are all the pay I'll ever need

It gets so lonely being evil
What I'd do to see a smile
Even for a little while
And no one loves you when you're evil
I'm lying through my teeth!
Your tears are all the company I need
