We used to have this topic on here, but not anymore...

But here we are, post your favorite lyrics here. Include the title of the song as well as the performer, and maybe a YouTube link in case anyone wants to give the song a listen :)


CCR - Have You Ever Seen the Rain?

Someone told me long ago, there's a calm before the storm.
I know, and it's been comin' for some time.
When it's over, so they say, it'll rain a sunny day.
I know, shinin' down like water.

I want to know, have you ever seen the rain?
I want to know, have you ever seen the rain
comin' down on a sunny day?

Yesterday, and days before, sun is cold and rain is hard.
I know, been that way for all my time.
'Til forever on it goes through the circle fast and slow,
I know, and it can't stop, I wonder.

I want to know, have you ever seen the rain?
I want to know, have you ever seen the rain
comin' down on a sunny day?


Sentenced - Fragile

So many times I have brought you down
that I have already lost all count
and I seem to be doing it again
No matter how hard I have tried
I have crumbled time after time
and kept failing in the end

Sometimes it feels it would be better for you all
If I ceased to exist or was never born at all

So many times I have let you down
shadowed the shine of our sun
and drowned you in tears and misery
that it is hard for me to see
how you can after all these years
still be standing by me

Sometimes it feels it would be better for us all
If I ceased to exist or was never born at all
Sometimes it feels it would be easier to fall

Blasphemous Rumors
Depeche Mode

Girl of 16
Whole life ahead of her
Slashed her wrists
Bored with life
Didn't succeed
Thank the lord
For small mercies

Fighting back the tears
Mother reads the note again
16 candles burn in her mind
She takes the blame
It's always the same
She goes down on her knees
And prays

I don't want to start
Any blasphemous rumors
But I think that God's
Got a sick sense of humor
And when I die
I expect to find Him laughing

Girl of 18
Fell in love with everything
Found new life
In Jesus Christ
Hit by a car
Ended up
On a life support machine

Summer's day
As she passed away
Birds were singing
In the summer sky
Then came the rain
And once again
A tear fell
From her mother´s eye

Fuels The Comedy by KoRn

Oh my God! I'm feeling crazy man
What could it be?
As I walk into this place everyone's staring at me
Somehow I feel I've got a fucked up disease
As I part the seas
Fingers come out pointing at me
Do I make you laugh?
Do you think I'm funny? Ha ha
Or funny queer?
Bitch, get outta here
Let me make myself clear
I don't give a fuck
All you people can suck my motherfuckin' dick!

What's with the hostility?
Why is it so provoked?
You're living in a fantasy that's how you cope
Go ahead, kick the shit out of me
It just fuels the comedy
Feel that you're superior
I feel your just plain absurd
Ridiculous vanity that is blurred
Go ahead, kick the shit out of me
It just fuels the comedy

''The sound of silence'' - Simon & Garfunkel


Hello darkness, my old friend,
I've come to talk with you again,
Because a vision softly creeping,
Left its seeds while I was sleeping,
And the vision that was planted in my brain
Still remains
Within the sound of silence.

In restless dreams I walk alone
Narrow streets of cobblestone,
'Neath the halo of a street lamp,
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light
That split the night
And touched the sound of silence.

And in the naked light I saw
Ten thousand people, maybe more.
People talking without speaking,
People hearing without listening,
People writing songs that voices never share
And no one dared
Disturb the sound of silence.

"Fools" said I,"You do not know
Silence like a cancer grows.
Hear my words that I might teach you,
Take my arms that I might reach you."
But my words like silent raindrops fell,
And echoed
In the wells of silence

And the people bowed and prayed
To the neon god they made.
And the sign flashed out its warning,
In the words that it was forming.
And the signs said, 'The words of the prophets are written on the subway walls
And tenement halls.
And whisper'd in the sounds of silence.


beautiful lyrics :heart:

Still I Rise- Shadows Fall

Stop searching the sky for answers
And look within
Our greatest gift
Is the life we are given

This is the price you pay
For throwing your whole life away

How can you know yourself
When your world is just a lie

Still I rise!
From the ashes
Look Inside
Search for meaning
Truth cannot survive

I feel the hate inside you
I watch it burn
You heard the warnings
But you, you never learned

This is the price you pay
For throwing your whole life away

How can you know yourself
When your world is just a lie

Still I rise!
From the ashes
Look inside
Search for meaning
Truth will not survive

Watch it burn
The hate inside you
No return
Ignore the warning signs

^Nice song/lyric choice, Taimi. I haven't listened to Shadows Fall in a long time, but I've got Still I Rise in my head now haha.

My favorite of Shadows Fall is Picture Perfect, though.

I watch it all collapse
It never seems to last
As long as I need it to

A beautiful mistake
A wound without a trace
Was it ever really true?

We can't see the future
We can't rewrite the past
Tried to hold it captive
But it faded all too fast

Is it much too late
To save yourself?

Memories keep calling
Deeper into fear I'm falling
Lost within my mind it haunts me for so long

Trapped beneath the glass
Never a shadow cast
A perfect picture's all I knew

Lost within the struggle
Never felt so much alive
Gave into the rapture
Didn't care if I survived

Is it too much late
To save yourself?

Memories keep calling
Deeper into fear I'm falling
Lost within my mind
It haunts me for so long
All my hope is dying
Even though I keep on trying
Lost within my mind
It haunts me for so long

Death Of A Dream- Epica

I followed your rules
A willing fool
Branded by shame

My soul suffers from your hostile ways
I bear so many scars, hit me hard
Time to change we have to rearrange
For this has gone too far, way too far

Creating new laws and living by unwritten rules
Restricting us

My soul suffers from your hostile ways
I can't let go

Creating new spins on ancient creed to fit
Your views
Denying us

You created this world
Where honesty is not allowed
You created this world
Where ignorance is being taught

You created this world
While I am all you'll never be
You've been drilling these
Such falsely-based philosophies
...in me

The curtain has fallen
There's no one behind
Corrected one mistake
But I am still around

Our fight is over
My scars will leave a stain
You thought that it was all easy
But I will still remain

You created yourself
Based on nothing else but lies
You created yourself
Where all your aspiration died

You created yourself
While I am all you'll never be
You're deceiving me
Now I am forcing you to see
...this

The curtain has fallen
There's no one behind
Corrected one mistake
But I am still around

Our fight is over
My scars will leave a stain
You thought that it was all easy
But I will still remain

Take my hand
I'm sinking
I'm reaching out for you

Can't you see what you've done to all of us?
Torturing me has no use here anymore

I followed your rules
A willing fool
Branded by shame

My soul suffers from your hostile ways
I bear so many scars, hit me hard
Time to change we have to rearrange
For this has gone too far, way too far

Creating mew laws and living by unwritten rules
Restricting us

My soul suffers from your hostile ways
I can't let go

Creating new spins on ancient creed to fit
your views
Denying us

The curtain has fallen
There's no one behind
Corrected one mistake
But I am still around

Our fight is over
My scars will leave a stain
You thought that it was all easy
But I will still remain

Your time is over
I'm taking back what's mine
You thought that you could keep me
Under your thumb and mind

Take my hand
I'm sinking
I'm reaching out for you
In my dying dream

Snuff - Slipknot
Bury all your secrets in my skin
Come away with innocence and leave me with my sins
The air around me still feels like a cage
And love is just a camouflage for what resembles rage again

So if you love me let me go
And run away before I know
My heart is just too dark to care
I can't destroy what isn?t there

Deliver me into my fate
If I'm alone I cannot hate
I don't deserve to have you
Ooh, my smile was taken long ago
If I can change I hope I never know

I still press your letters to my lips
And cherish them in parts of me that savor every kiss
I couldn't face a life without your lights
But all of that was ripped apart when you refused to fight

So save your breath, I will not care
I think I made it very clear
You couldn't hate enough to love
Is that supposed to be enough?

I only wish you weren't my friend
Then I could hurt you in the end
I never claimed to be a saint
Ooh, my own was banished long ago
It took the death of hope to let you go

So break yourself against my stones
And spit your pity in my soul
You never needed any help
You sold me out to save yourself

And I won't listen to your shame
You ran away, you're all the same
Angels lie to keep control
Ooh, my love was punished long ago
If you still care don't ever let me know
If you still care don't ever let me know

^^ One of my favourite songs! I saw Corey perform it live in December and he cried in the middle of it. It was very touching and heartfelt.

This will make you love again - Iamx

When the joys of living just leave you cold
Frozen from the failing mess you've made your own
And if you want an ending to your screenplay life
Well here's the consolation
That will change your heart and mind

And all the glitz messiah's just pass the time
A cure for no real sickness, cross your hopes and die
Your supermarket jesus comes with smiles and lies
Where justice he delays is always justice he denies

This will make you love again

And now you're safe
Love again
To feel the rays
Love again
The sweet delays
Love again
And shoot the breeze

Early thursday mornings
Wipe away the flies
The crossfire fight for action
In between your thighs
And every touch is sacred
When they leave the room
If i have to switch the lights off
I wanna switch them off with you

This will make you love again

And now you're safe
Love again
To feel the rays
Love again
The sweet delays
Love again
And shoot the breeze
Love again

English Translation:

Low in the sky, the angels flying
So clumsy, they're smiling
Hanging in the air, longing to transform
That’s the wish of the chrysalis

I love you, I love you
And I don’t care if it’s with fingertips
It’s so easy this way
Just like ashes

Something like love
That isn’t what I mean
Just being alive
Is not enough for me

Something like love
That isn’t what I mean
Like the tiny insects
Just like dust and ashes

Tumbling down like a spiral snail
That’s right, I’m camouflaged now
Reach out your hand, Adriadne (1)
That’s right, I’m camouflaged now

I love you, I love you
Hands and feet, they won’t come out
It’s so easy this way
Just like ashes

Something like love
That isn’t what I mean
Just being alive
Is not enough for me

Something like love
That isn’t what I mean
Like the tiny insects
Just like dust and ashes

Something like love
That isn’t what I mean
Just being alive
Is not enough for me

Begging you please
That isn’t what it is
Like the tiny insects
At my fingertips

Something like love
That isn’t what I mean
Just being alive
Is not enough for me

Something like love
That isn’t what I mean
Like the tiny insects
Just like dust and ashes

Just being alive
Is not enough for me

Like the tiny insects
At my fingertips
Just being alive
Is not enough for me

Like the tiny insects
At my fingertips

Was auch immer

Roter Sand by Rammstein

Eine Liebe, ein Versprechen
Sagt' ich komm zurück zu dir
Nun, ich muss es leider brechen
Seine Kugel steckt in mir
Eine Liebe, zwei Pistolen
Eine zielt mir ins Gesicht
Er sagt, ich hätte dich gestohlen
Dass du mich liebst
Weiss er nicht

Roter Sand und zwei Patronen
Eine stirbt im Pulverkuss
Die zweite soll ihr Ziel nicht schonen
Steckt jetzt tief in meiner Brust

Eine Liebe, ein Versprechen
Ach das Blut läuft aus dem Mund
Und keiner wird mich rächen
Sinnlos gehe ich zugrund
Eine Liebe zwei Pistolen
Einer konnte schneller ziehen
Nun, ich bin es nicht gewesen
Jetzt gehörst du ihm

Roter Sand und zwei Patronen
Eine stirbt im Pulverkuss
Die zweite sollt' ihr Ziel nicht schonen
Steckt jetzt tief in meiner Brust

Roter Sand und weisse Tauben
Laben sich an meinem Blut
Am Ende gibt es doch ein Ende
Bin ich doch zu etwas gut

Roter Sand und zwei Patronen
Eine stirbt im Pulverkuss
Die zweite sollt' ihr Ziel nicht schonen
Steckt jetzt tief in meiner Brust

Pink Floyd - Shine On You Crazy Diamond


Remember when you were young,
You shone like the sun.
Shine on you crazy diamond.
Now there's a look in your eyes,
Like black holes in the sky.
Shine on you crazy diamond.
You were caught on the crossfire
Of childhood and stardom,
Blown on the steel breeze.
Come on you target for faraway laughter,
Come on you stranger, you legend,
You martyr, and shine!

You reached for the secret too soon,
You cried for the moon.
Shine on you crazy diamond.
Threatened by shadows at night,
And exposed to the light.
Shine on you crazy diamond.
Well you wore out your welcome
With random precision,
Rode on the steel breeze.
Come on you raver, you seer of visions,
Come on you painter, you piper,
You prisoner, and shine!

Nobody knows where you are,
How near or how far.
Shine on you crazy diamond.
Pile on many more layers and
I'll be joining you there.
Shine on you crazy diamond.
And we'll bask in the shadow
Of yesterday's triumph,
And sail on the steel breeze.
Come on you boy child,
You winner and loser,
Come on you miner for truth and delusion,
and shine!

It changes, depands on what is happening in my life :rolleyes:
But I always go back to:

King Crimson - Epitaph

The wall on which the prophets wrote
Is cracking at the seams.
Upon the instruments of death
The sunlight brightly gleams.
When every man is torn apart
With nightmares and with dreams,
Will no one lay the laurel wreath
When silence drowns the screams.

Confusion will be my epitaph.
As I crawl a cracked and broken path
If we make it we can all sit back
and laugh.
But I fear tomorrow I'll be crying,
Yes I fear tomorrow I'll be crying.

Between the iron gates of fate,
The seeds of time were sown,
And watered by the deeds of those
Who know and who are known;
Knowledge is a deadly friend
When no one sets the rules.
The fate of all mankind I see
Is in the hands of fools.

Confusion will be my epitaph.
As I crawl a cracked and broken path
If we make it we can all sit back
and laugh.
But I fear tomorrow I'll be crying,
Yes I fear tomorrow I'll be crying

Confide-FirewinD


It seems its over
When the ground is gone
The night is silent
Now i stand alone
When we are together
You make me feel alive
Bound forever
You're love feels right

One more night comes to an end
One more fight for my friend
No more regrets.

[Chorus:]
Feels like I've known you for so long
My heart is blank without you
Tonight together
They're not alone
Just in you, I Confide


Feels like I've known you for so long
My heart is blank without you
Tonight together
They're not alone
Just in you, I Confide

[Solo]


Feels like I've known you for so long
My heart is blank without you
Tonight together
They're not alone
Just in you, I Confide

++++++++++++++++++

Allegiance

They feed you lies, they bring you pain
Your life, sucked from your veins
Clever disguise, falling from grace
And now the sinners marching on

Inside my mind
Warlike thoughts are taking over me

See our generation torn, our burning hearts
No more praises in the hall
We're all about to fall
Empty memories are shattering our dreams
Can you recall?

Pledge your allegiance!
Pledge your allegiance!

You hate them – yet you won't betray
The wars you fight ain't yours!
The path of no return you take
Until you lose control

Inside my mind
Warlike thoughts are taking over me

See our generation torn, our burning hearts
No more praises in the hall
We're all about to fall
Empty memories are shattering our dreams
Can you recall?

+++++++++++++++++++++++++

3. Falling To Pieces


[Music: Gus G. - Lyrics: Apollo Papathanasio]

Be yourself tonight don't stress yourself to death
Don't try to fight the time
Synchronize your health
Don't think you'll lose it all
It all comes back to you
So get your soul alive
Things will go on through

Don't hide behind a dark and empty soul
Don't lie to yourself no more

Everything is you
But you're falling to pieces
Let me get you through
I'm falling down with you
Everything is lost
I help you through the darkness
Let me lead you to a place that's calm for you

Like stormy weather
You're moving with no goal
Feeling kind of strange
Feel you want to growl

Don't hide behind a dark and empty soul
Don't lie to yourself no more

Everything is you
But you're falling to pieces
Let me get you through
I'm falling down with you
Everything is lost
I help you through the darkness
Let me lead you to a place that's calm for you

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

6. Deliverance


[Music & Lyrics: Gus G.]

Streets full of madness
And I don't know where to turn
Driving me insane I have to get away
The one-eyed leads the blind to decay

Can't keep away...

A moment seems an eternity
A lifetime lived in a dream
Over and again but you know the end
Do you have the same dream like me?

And my spirit is free
I'm more than what you can see
I will make you believe

Can't keep away...

Through endless fields of fire
I've walked among the dead
Forced of greed, taking the lead
Our souls are hanging by a thread

And my spirit is free
I'm more than what you can see
I will make you believe

And my spirit, rides the breeze...

+++++++++++++++++++++++++

4. Embrace The Sun


[Gus G. - Apollo Papathanasio - Petros Christo - Bob Katsionis - Michael Ehré]

Step outside this spinning wheel and you'll see its turning
All the shadows now will disappear and you're burning
You can't change the world, but you can change yourself
Slowly turning dust into a shape

Embrace the sun, you won't get hurt
Don't be afraid, is it so hard to understand?
Embrace the sun, embrace the sun
Inhale the air, there's nothing wrong
Just breathe, caress the flame of life and you'll be strong
Embrace the sun, embrace the sun

At the end of the sea you will find there is no horizon
And don't fantasize but your fortune is here for a reason
You can't change the world, but you can change yourself
Try to turn the dust into a shape

Embrace the sun,you won't get hurt
Don't be afraid, is it so hard to understand?
Embrace the sun, embrace the sun
Inhale the air, there's nothing wrong

Just breathe, caress the flame of life and you'll be strong
Embrace the sun,embrace the sun

Face your life and stop pretending
Now you're caught in the eye of the world
Now it's time for an ending

You won't get hurt
Don't be afraid, is it so hard to understand?
Embrace the sun, embrace the sun
Inhale the air, there's nothing wrong
Just breathe, caress the flame of life and you'll be strong
Embrace the sun, embrace the sun

Don't be afraid
You won't get hurt
Don't be afraid
