Songs You Relate To

[Stanley Shi-Yume]

XIX - slipknot


With my face

Against the floor

I can see YOU knocked me out

Of the way
I don’t want

To get back up

But I have to so it might as well be today

Nothing appeals to me

n o. o n e. f e e l s

Like me
I’m too busy being calm

To disappear
I’m in no shape

To be alone

Contrary to the sh~t
that you might hear
So WALK with me
Don’t let this EMBOLISM kill your heart
WALK WITH ME
JUST LIKE WE SHOULDVE DONE RIGHT FROM THE START
walk

with

me
DONT LET THIS F~CK~NG WORLD TEAR YOU APART

Many of Alter Bridge's songs. Many are pretty dark though.

 

[Kintsugi]

Tool
Reflection

I have come so curiously end, though
Beneath my self-indulgent pitiful hole
Defeated
I concede and
Move closer
I may find comfort here
I may find peace within the emptiness
How pitiful

It's calling me

And in my darkest moment, feeble and weeping
The moon tells me a secret
A confidant
As full and bright as I am
This light is not my own and
A million light reflections
Pass over me

Its source is bright and endless
She resuscitates the hopless
Without her we're all be lifeless satellites
Drifting

And as I pour my head out
I am without one doubt
You wanna peer down here
Survey my narcissism
I must crucify the ego
Before it's far too late
I pray the light lifts me out

Before I pine away

So crucify the ego
Before it's far too late
And leave this place behind so
Negative and blind and cynical
And you will come to find
That we are all one mind
Capable of all that's imagined
And all that's conceivable
So let the light touch you
So that the words spill through
And let the past break through
Bringing out our hope and reason

Before we hide away

You don't own me.Lesley Gore

You don't own me, I'm not just one of your many toys
You don't own me, don't say I can't go with other boys

And don't tell me what to do
And don't tell me what to say
And please, when I go out with you
Don't put me on display, 'cause

You don't own me, don't try to change me in any way
You don't own me, don't tie me down 'cause I'd never stay

Oh, I don't tell you what to say
I don't tell you what to do
So just let me be myself
That's all I ask of you

I'm young and I love to be young
I'm free and I love to be free
To live my life the way I want
To say and do whatever I please

A-a-a-nd don't tell me what to do
Oh-h-h-h don't tell me what to say
And please, when I go out with you
Don't put me on display

I don't tell you what to say
Oh-h-h-h don't tell you what to do
So just let me be myself
That's all I ask of you

I'm young and I love to be young
I'm free and I love to be free
To live my life the way I want

Thank you for posting this. I've heard this song a million times but I've never thought about it in this context before. And I can't express how much this resonates with me too. And for the same reason. For family and not for a boy. In fact I read this right after my mom did something that made me so uncomfortable that it triggered my anger. I'm going to have to go listen to this song in this context now because it says so much of what I wish I could say.

lit - Im not sick but im not well
Red hot chilli peppers - otherside
Metallica - unforgiven, until it sleeps
Nirvana - Lithium
Hole - take everything
Everclear - Father of mine, Wonderful,

Everclear "Santa Monica"

I am still livin' with your ghost (of everyone who screwed me up)
Lonely and dreamin' of the west coast
I don't wanna be your downtime
I don't wanna be your stupid game
With my big black boots and an old suitcase (really speaks to me especially after getting a pair of womens combat boots for winter :))
I do believe I'll find myself a new place
I don't wanna be the bad guy
I don't wanna do your sleepwalk dance anymore (to me they still get me because I started drinking, got to quit and try to be a part of life somehow)
I just wanna see some palm trees
I will try and shake away this disease
We can live beside the ocean
Leave the fire behind
Swim out past the breakers
Watch the world die
We can live beside the ocean
Leave the fire behind
Swim out past the breakers
Watch the world die
I am still dreamin' of your face
Hungry and hollow for all the things you took away
I don't wanna be your good time
I don't wanna be your fallback crutch anymore
Walk right out into a brand new day
Insane and risin' in my own weird way
I don't wanna be the bad guy
I don't wanna do your sleepwalk dance anymore
I just wanna feel some sunshine
I just wanna find some place to be alone
Yeah watch the world die

Everclear "Strawberry" (has helped me stay sober this long)

Never been here, never coming back
Never want to think about the things
That happened today
Want to lay down on the warm ground
I think I'm going to need a little time to myself
Don't fall down now
You will never get up
Don't fall down now
I ask you for a slow ride
Going nowhere
You look like Satan
You ask me if I want to get high
Couple of bags down in old town
You tie your arm and
Ask me if I wanted to drive
Don't fall down now
You will never get up
Don't fall down now
Last thing I recall
I was in the air
I woke up on the street
Crawling with my strawberry burns
Ten long years in a straight line
They fall like water
Yes, I guess I f*cked up again
Don't fall down now
You will never get up
Don't fall down now

Pink - f*kin perfect, dont let me get me, just like a pill, my vietnam,
"Eventually"

I am an opportunity and I knock so softly
Sometimes I get loud when I wish everybody'd just
get off me
So many playas you'd think I was a ball game
Its every man for themself, there are no
team mates
This life gets lonely when everybody wants
something
This might have been your fate
But they'll get their's eventually
And I hope I'm there

Surrounded by familiar faces without names
None of them know me or want to share my pain
And they only wish to bask in my light, then fade
away
To win my love, to them a game
To watch me live my life in pain
When all is done and the glitter fades, fades
away
They'll get their's eventually
And I hope I'm there

I drank your poison cuz you told me its wine
Shame on you if you fool once
Shame on me if you fool me twice
I didn't know the price
You'll get yours eventually

So what good am I to you if I can't be broken?
You'll get yours, yes you'll get yours
Eventually

and this one about my husband.... I dont feel connected emotionally but i need him

Billy Joel "She's Got A Way"

She's got a way about her
I don't know what it is
But I know that I can't live without her
She's got a way of pleasin'
I don't know what it is
But there doesn't have to be a reason anyway

She's got a smile that heals me
I don't know why it is
But I have to laugh when she reveals me
She's got a way of talkin'
I don't know why it is
But it lifts me up when we are walkin' anywhere

She comes to me when I'm feelin' down
Inspires me without a sound
She touches me and I get turned around

She's got a way of showin'
How I make her feel
And I find the strength to keep on goin'
She's got a light around her
And ev'rywhere she goes
A million dreams of love surround her ev'rywhere

She comes to me when I'm feelin' down
Inspires me without a sound
She touches me and I get turned around

She's got a smile that heals me
I don't know why it is
But I have to laugh when she reveals me
She's got a way about her
I don't know what it is
But I know that I can't live without her anyway

Greg Kihn Band - "Jeopardy" Love the beat and the music!

 

[Kintsugi]

Ticks and Leeches
Tool

Suck and suck!

Suckin' up all you can
Suckin' up all you can suck and suck
Working up under my patience like a little tick
Fat little parasite

Suck!

Me
Dry

My blood's bruised and burrowed
You thieving bastards
You have turned my blood
Cold and bitter
Beat my compassion black and blue

Hope this is what you wanted
Hope this is what you had in mind
'Cause this is what you're getting

I hope you're choking
I hope you choke on this

Taken all I can, taken all I can, we can take
Taken all you can, taking all you can f*cking take
Got nothing left to give to you

Blood-sucking parasitic little tick
Blood-sucking parasitic little tick
Take what you want and then go

Hope this is what you wanted
Hope this is what you had in mind
'Cause this is what you're getting

Suck me dry

Is this what you wanted?
Is this what you had in mind?
'Cause this is what you're getting

I hope

I hope

I hope you choke

really if anyone looks for this and listens to it, this is very calming, it was in the biography page of someone i met in a game

Faithless - "Liontamer"

[Maxi Jazz]
If you place a thing into the center of your life
That lacks the power to nourish
It will eventually poison everything that you are
And destroy you

A simple a thing as an idea
Or your perspective on yourself of the world
No one can be the source of your contempt,
It lies within, in the center.
Only with mellow while your thin enough to slide through
Only with mellow while your thin enough to slide through

Don't let nothing ride you.

If the sun or the moon should keel away to die,
They would immediately go out .

One.

Swallow don't make a sound,
But tomorrow has to start somewhere.

Newspapers entertain,
Lion Tamers die in pain
This Child wise beyond words
Whose tears flow without seize

Newspapers entertain,
Lion Tamers die in pain
This child wise beyond words
Whose tears flow without seize

[Zoe Johnston]
When there's no where, left to run to
Let me come to you, let me help you down
For when the world, gives you tomorrow
Your gonna learn to live again

We can learn to go,
Oh learn as we go

Just to live, for the day
I know it's hard, to live for the moment
Just try, anyway
