A Perfect Circle - The Noose
"And not to pull your halo down
around your neck and tug you to the ground,
but I'm more than just a little curious
how you're planning to go about making your amends
to the dead. "

Nine Inch Nails - Every day is exactly the same
"I believe I can see the future
cause I repeat the same routine."

"Forget It" -Breaking Benjamin

It's a crime you let it happen to me
Nevermind, I'll let it happen to you
Out of mind, forget it there's nothing to lose
But my mind and all the things I wanted

Everytime I get it I throw it away
It's a sign, I get it, I wanna stay
By the time I lose it I'm not afraid
I'm alive but I can Surely fake it

How can I believe when this cloud hangs over me
You're the part of me that I don't wanna see

Forget it

There's a place I see you follow me
Just a taste of all that might come to be
I'm alone but holding breath you can breathe
To question every answer counted

Just fade away
Please let me stay
Caught in your way

Forget it

Just fade away
Please let me stay
Caught in your way

It's a crime you let it happen to me
Out of mind, I love it, easy to please
Nevermind, forget it, just memories
On a page inside a spiral notebook

Just fade away
Please let me stay
Caught in your way
I can live forever here

Forget it

How can I believe when this cloud hangs over me
You're a part of me that I don't wanna see

I can live forever here

I really relate to this song. Daydreaming was my escape as a child.

Nightwish "Eva"

6:30 winter morn
Snow keeps falling, silent dawn
A rose by any other name
Eva leaves her Swanbrook home
A kindest heart which always made
Me ashamed of my own
She walks alone but not without her name

Eva flies away
Dreams the world far away
In this cruel children's game
There's no friend to call her name
Eva sails away
Dreams the world far away
The Good in her will be my sunflower field

Mocked by man to depths of shame
Little girl with life ahead
For a memory of one kind word
She would stay among the beasts
Time for one more daring dream
Before her escape, edenbeam
We kill with her own loving heart

Eva flies away
Dreams the world far away
In this cruel children's game
There's no friend to call her name
Eva sails away
Dreams the world far away
The Good in her will be my sunflower field

"Forget It" -Breaking Benjamin

I love Breaking Benjamin. "Home" is my favourite song, I think I have posted those lyrics before.

I keep hearing this song on youtube adverts, and turns out it's a great song:

The Meemies - "Porch song"
Sorry about those things I said before. Sorry about those things I said before.
People come and people go. People come by, now you know,
And I'm sorry about all those things.

One day you'll realize
How sorry I was that you had to go.

Take away the sun, you can't see no moon. Take away the sun, you can't see no moon.
Need the one to see them both. Need the one by now you know,
Take away the sun, you can't see no moon.

Knew that you had to leave, but I'm sorry that you had to go so soon.

And I wish I could turn these days to weeks. I wish I could turn these days to weeks.
But I cannot stretch them so. But I can't by now you know:
I wish I could turn these days to weeks.


It has a really catchy tune with the sad lyrics. It reminds me of Auden's poem "Stop all the Clocks", the lyrics about the sun and the moon.

 

[Bree]

For the love of a daughter- Demi Lovato
Please father put the bottle down
For the love of a daughter
Don't you remember
I'm your baby girl
How could you push me out of your world

Because of you- Kelly Clarkson
I watched you die, I heard you cry
Every night in your sleep
I was so young, you should have known
Better than to lean on me
You never thought of anyone else
You just saw your pain

My Mom- Eminem
My mom loved Valium and lots of drugs
That's why I am like I am 'cause I'm like her

 

[Loveneverfails]

Never Say Never- Tristan Prettyman

Wish I would've listened to myself
You would've thought I'd known better
Shouldn't trust my heart this time
But the mind, it changes like the weather
The scars will fade away, and I may never be the same
But you can't start a fire in the pouring rain
Never say never

Now I hear you're back to your old self
And I still can't imagine
Why you take something good, like love, like us
And pretend it never happened
Cause you'll look back one day
And you'll wish we still had that flame
But you can't start a fire in the pouring rain
Never say never

You said you would never let me go
You promised me, our love written on the wall
Felt so easy but I should've known better
To never say never

Gotta be careful what you give
You never know just what you get
Who knows, maybe the best hasn't happened yet
Some days I still feel the same
And my love, it still remains
Wish I could start a fire in the pouring rain

You said you would never let me go
You promised me, our love written on the wall
Felt so easy but I should've known better
To never say never

Told the whole world that you were all mine
You put it in my head that we were doing fine
Am I the only one who remembers?
It doesn't matter now if you change your mind
Cause I won't be around when you finally realize
Nothing really lasts forever

Flames in the sky
And there's smoke in my eyes
You set me free
So don't say you miss me
Just don't say you miss me

You said you would never let me go
You promised me, our love written on the wall
Felt so easy but I should've known better
To never say never

We should start a fire in the pouring rain
(I love the spoken lines at the end also)

I think this song is very funny, and a great video. I relate to it because you could come up with so many reasons not to live your life, and it would be easier not to sometimes, to stay in that place where you are stuck and you don't engage with the world or even people you know. It also appeals to me due to the huge amount of sarcasm (or some other word I can't locate right now). Oh, and major crush on Jorma from the band, he is very cute :inlove::roflmao:.

The Lonely Island - "YOLO"

YOLO - you only live once:
The battle cry of a generation.
This life is a precious gift,
So don't get too crazy,
It's not worth the risk.

You know that we are still young.
So don't be dumb.
Don't trust anyone, ‘cause you only live once!

Ugh, you only live once,
That’s the motto.
So take a chill pill, ease off the throttle!

Never go to loud clubs ‘cause it's bad for your ears.
Your friends will all be sorry
When they can't hear!

And stay the hell away from drugs ‘cause they’re not legal.
Then bury all your money in the backyard
like a beagle!

‘Cause you should never trust a bank,
They've been known to fail.
And never travel by car, a bus, boat or by rail!

And don't travel by plane.
And don't travel at all!
Build a bomb shelter basement, with titanium walls.

And wear titanium suits in case pianos fall on ya.
And never go in saunas
‘cause they're crawlin' with piranhas!

And never take the stairs ‘cause they're often unsafe.
You only live once:
Don't let it go to waste.

You know that we are still young, so hold off on the fun.
Cook your meat 'til it's done,
‘cause you only live once.

Yeah, and here's another piece of advice:
Stay away from kids
‘cause their hair is filled with mad lice!

There's no such thing as too much Purell.
This a cautionary tale,
Word to George Orwell.

So don't 1980 force any plugs into sockets.
Always wear a chastity belt -
And triple lock it!

Then hire a taster, make him check your food for poison.
And if you think your mailman is a spy
then destroy him!

No blankets or pyjamas, they can choke you in your sleep!
Two words about furniture:
“killing machines”!

Board your windows up, the sun is bad for your health.
And always wear a straight jacket
so you're safe from yourself.

Take no chances (no chances).
Stop freelancin' (right now).
Invest in your future, don't dilute your finances (uh huh),
401K, make sure it's low risk,
Then get some real estate (how much?)
4.2% Thirty year mortgage,
that's important, that's a great deal!
And if you can't afford it,
don't forge it on your last bill.
Renting is for suckers right now.
A dependable savings, and you'll retire with money in your account. Beast!

YOLO: say no no.
Isolate yourself, and just roll solo.
Be care-folo.
You oughta look out, also stands for YOLO.

You know that we are still young. Burn the prints off your thumbs!
Then pull out all your teeth,
So you can't bite your tongue!

Only on this earth for a short time:
So don't go outside, cause you don't want to die!
Just take our advice and hide:
and scream YOLO to the sky.

You oughta look out.

Done Too Soon

Jesus Christ, Fanny Brice,
Wolfie Mozart and Humphrey Bogart and
Genghis Khan and
On to H. G. Wells.

Ho Chi Minh, Gunga Din
Henry Luce and John Wilkes Booth
And Alexanders
King and Graham Bell.

Rama Krishna, Mama Whistler,
Patrice Lumumba and Russ Colombo,
Karl and Chico Marx,
Albert Camus.

E. A. Poe, Henri Rousseau,
Sholom Aleichem and Caryl Chessman,
Alan Freed and
Buster Keaton too

And each one there
Has one thing shared:
They have sweated beneath the same sun,
Looked up in wonder at the same moon,
And wept when it was all done

For bein' done too soon,
For bein' done too soon.
For bein' done.

-Neil Diamond

Love Song Requiem by Trading Yesterday

Emily will find a better place to fall asleep
She belongs to fairy tales that I could never be
The future haunts with memories that I could never have
And hope is just a stranger wondering how it got so bad

I die each time you look away
My heart, my life will never be the same
This love will take my everything
One breath, one touch will be the end of me

You could be the final straw that brings me back to earth
Ever-waiting airports full of the love that you deserve
Wishing I could find a way to wash away the past
Knowing that my heart
Will break, but at least the pain will last

I die each time you look away
My heart, my life will never be the same
This love will take my everything
One breath, one touch will be the end of me

Emily will find a better place to fall asleep
Maybe she will save me in the oceans of her dream
And maybe someday love
Maybe someday love
Maybe someday love

 

[Upside Down Eagle]

Porcupine Tree -Lazarus
I survived against the will of my twisted folk
But in the deafness of my world the silence broke And said
"Follow me down to the valley below You know
Moonlight is bleeding from out of your soul"

"My David don't you worry
This cold world is not for you
So rest your head upon me
I have strength to carry you"

Katatonia -First Prayer
You leave now
Leave my void of prayers
Take these words to go with you
Take the splinters
See them fall

Eminem -Sing For the Moment
Or for anyone who's ever been through shit in their lives
Till they sit and they cry at night wishin' they'd die
Till they throw on a rap record and they sit, and they vibe

Music is my everything :headphone:

 

[Loveneverfails]

I really connect to this song, feels like what my life is like lately.

Bones-MSMR

Dig up her bones but leave the soul alone
Boy with a broken soul
Heart with a gaping hole
Dark twisted fantasy turned to reality
Kissing death and losing my breath
Midnight hours cobble street passages
Forgotten savages, forgotten savages

Dig up her bones but leave the soul alone
Let her find a way to a better place
Broken dreams and silent screams
Empty churches with soulless curses
We found a way to escape the day

Dig up her bones but leave the soul alone
Lost in the pages of self made cages
Life slips away and the ghosts come to play
These are hard times
These are hard times for dreamers
And love lost believers

Dig up her bones but leave the soul alone
Let her find a way to a better place
Broken dreams and silent screams
Empty churches with soulless curses
We found a way to escape the day

Candybar creep show
My highs hit a new low
Marinate in misery
Like a girl of only 17
Man made madness
And the romance of sadness
A beautiful dance that happened by chance
Happened by chance, happened by chance

Dig up her bones but leave the soul alone
Let her find a way to a better place
Broken dreams and silent screams
Empty churches with soulless curses
We found a way to escape the day

A Warning- lamb of god
I'm a monster so don't walk my way. Don't trust my smile my teeth are like knives. I will suck you down and drag you dry. Don't laugh at my jokes- the punchline is murder.Don't enjoy my touch, every caress hides a chokehold.I'm only happy when I've ruined everything I see.Believe everything you've ever heard about me- suck it up.If you see me coming don't stop, just turn and walk the other way.I will not lie about what I have done
