Songs You Relate To

[Lionheart]

Bring me to life
Evanescence

How can you see into my eyes like open doors?
Leading you down into my core where I’ve become so numb
Without a soul my spirit sleeping somewhere cold
until you find it there and lead it back home

all this time I can't believe I couldn't see
kept in the dark but you were there in front of me
I’ve been sleeping a thousand years it seems
got to open my eyes to everything
Without a thought, without a voice, without a soul
don't let me die here
there must be something more
bring me to life

Loooove Head Like a Hole, Cheshire.

Here is an oldie and a goodie. Welcome to my mind at 12.

Paint It Black

I see a red door and I want to paint it black
No colors anymore, I want them to turn black

I see the girls walk by dressed in their summer clothes
I have to turn my head until my darkness goes

I see a line of cars and they are painted black
With flowers and my love both never to come back

I see people turn their heads and quickly look away
Like a newborn baby it just happens every day

Okay So I know that these lyrics seem.. well a little macabre.. but hell! the song. It's just so damn good! The lyrics aren't a focal point it's more the vocals and guitars and drums that take the cake.

Electric Wizard
I, the Witchfinder

I am Albino, evil witchfinder
I'll cleanse her sins, for witchcraft I condemn her
My implements of torture are bloody red
Your confession to sorcery will leave you dead
Will leave you dead
Will leave you dead

I am Albino, evil witchfinder
I know she's guilty before I find her
I'll pierce her flesh to find his mark
Torture, my pleasure, true servant of the dark
True servant of the dark

I, the witchfinder

 

[Kintsugi]

The Dresden Dolls (cover)
Pretty in Pink

Caroline laughs and it's raining all day
And she loves to be one of the girls
She lives in the place in the side of our lives
Where nothing is ever put straight
She turns herself round and she smiles and says,
"This it it, that's the end of the joke"
And loses herself in her dreaming and sleep
And her lovers walk through in their coats

She's pretty in pink
Isn't she? Pretty in pink

 

[incongruent]

and just cause they call themself experts, it doesn't mean sweet f*ck all
oh, they've got the permanent press and homes with a stable address
and they've got excitement and life by the fistful
but you've got the needle
i guess that's the point of it all

Dresden Dolls
Point of it all

 

[Kintsugi]

Dresden Dolls

I wish I could somehow quote all of her noises.

More...

Girl Anachronism

And you can tell from the smoke at the stake
That the current state is critical
Well
It
Is
The little things, for instance
In the time it takes to break it
She could make of ten excuses
"Please excuse her for the day,
It's just the way the medication makes her"
*Amanda yell/"ugh!" noise*

 

[Crl1983]

Nine Inch Nails-I Do Not Want This

I'm losing ground
you know how this world can beat you down
and I'm made of clay
I fear I'm the only one who thinks this way

I'm always falling down this same hill
bamboo puncturing this skin
and nothing comes bleeding out of me
just like a waterfall I'm drowning in
two feet below the surface
I can still make out your wavy face
and if I could just reach you
maybe I could leave this place

I do not want this

 

[Kintsugi]

Here's a NIN song in tribute to my sick abused thinking about relationships from when I was younger.

Nine Inch Nails
Discipline

Am I talking too much?
Did I cross the line, line, line
I need my role in this
Very clearly defined

I need your discipline
I need your help

K's Choice
Home

I was born in a cradle of love
I had two brothers who beat me up
When I was seven years old,
I had a friend named Tom
And when we were together
I didn't want to go home
Home

When I was fifteen,
I was very confused
I made a bad habit
Outta breaking the rules
The kitchen window
Was my door into the night
And when I got caught,
They made me come home
Home

Nine Inch Nails
Right Where It Belongs

See the Animal in his cage that you built
Are you sure what side you're on?
Better not look him too closely in the eye
Are you sure what side of the glass you are on?

See the safety of the life you have built
Everything where it belongs
Feel the hollowness inside of your heart
And it's all right where it belongs

What if everything around you
Isn't quite as it seems?
What if all the world you think you know
Is an elaborate dream?

And if you look at your relfection
Is that all you want it to be?
What if you could look right through the cracks
Would you find yourself, find yourself afraid to see?

- I loved this song well before I knew I had PTSD. It spoke to me, but I didn't know why for quite a while.

"We're All In This Together" by Ben Lee. ( I think the title speaks for itself).

 

[Kintsugi]

Dear scum-of-the-earth Vector employers, this one's for you.

NOFX
How Did the Cat Get So Fat

Even if it's easy to be free
What's your definition of freedom?
And who the f*ck are you
Who the f*ck are They
Who the f*ck am I to say?

How did the cat get so fat...

It's all about the money political power is taking
Protecting the rich, denying the poor...
And I wonder
How can they sleep at night?
How can they sleep at night!
How did the cat get so fat

Heaven by Eric Clapton.
Would you be the same if I saw you in heaven?
Would you know my name if I saw you in heaven?

I had 3 dear friends die between the age of 12 and 20. Everytime I hear that song I remember them and miss them so much. Even after all these years.:cry:
