Oh, we're sinking like stones
All that we fall for
All those places we've grown
All of us are done for

We live in a beautiful world
Yeah we do, yeah we do
We live in a beautiful world

Oh, we're sinking like stones
All that we fall for
Homes, places we've grown
All of us are done for

We live in a beautiful world
Yeah we do, yeah we do
We live in a beautiful world

We live in a beautiful world
Yeah we do, yeah we do
We live in a beautiful world

Oh, all that I know
There's nothing here to run from
Cos here
Everybody here's got somebody to lean on.


coldplay - don't panic

 

[Loz#1]

There's so many songs that I could choose from, but one that sticks out in my mind is "Fighter" by Christina Aguilera, because it's so empowering and reminds me of a situation I was in with some guy.

Lyrics:
When I, thought I knew you
Thinking, that you were true
I guess I, I couldn't trust
'Cause your bluff time is up
'Cause I've had enough
You were, there by my side
Always, down for the ride
But your, joy ride just came down in flames
'Cause your greed sold me out of shame, mmhmm

After all of the stealing and cheating
You probably think that I hold resentment for you
But, uh uh, oh no, you're wrong
'Cause if it wasn't for all that you tried to do
I wouldn't know just how capable I am to pull through
So I wanna say thank you

'Cause it makes me that much stronger
Makes me work a little bit harder
It makes me that much wiser
So thanks for making me a fighter
Made me learn a little bit faster
Made my skin a little bit thicker
Makes me that much smarter
So thanks for making me a fighter

Oh, ohh

Never, saw it coming
All of, your backstabbing
Just so, you could cash in
On a good thing before I realized your game
I heard, you're going around
Playing, the victim now
But don't, even begin
Feeling I'm the one to blame
'Cause you dug your own grave, uh huh

After all of the fights and the lies
Yes you wanted to harm me but that won't work anymore
Uh, no more, oh no, it's over
'Cause if it wasn't for all of your torture
I wouldn't know how to be this way now, and never back down
So I wanna say thank you

'Cause it makes me that much stronger
Makes me work a little bit harder
Makes me that much wiser
So thanks for making me a fighter
Made me learn a little bit faster
Made my skin a little bit thicker
It makes me that much smarter
So thanks for making me a fighter

Emmanuel Carella - 2 Beautiful

Shes just too wonderful
Shes just too sweet
Shes just too beautiful
Beautiful for me

Shes just too wonderful
Shes just too sweet
Shes just too beautiful
Beautiful for me

A girl like yous gotta have I bet a hundred
Guys just waiting in line on her
A girl like you wouldnt give a guy
Like me the time or day for sure
But I cant help wondering what it would be like
To have someone like you in my life
Even though I know its just a hopeless fate to see

Cause youre too beautiful for me
To love me, too sweet
Too irresistible to every guy you meet
Too wonderful, too fine
Too unapproachable ever to be mine

No, not in this lifetime
So why do I bother even try, try, try-y-y

A girl like you makes a guy like you
I wanna hand over my life my heart
But the problem is every time you get close
Wanna tell you but I dont know where to start (where to start)
For all the chance I have with getting with you
I might as well be a freak in the zoo
We dont belong together anyone can see

Cause youre too beautiful
To love me (for me) too sweet
Too irresistible to every guy you meet
Too wonderful, too fine
Too unapproachable ever to be mine

No, not in this lifetime
So why do I bother even try (So why do I bother even try)
I bother even try and try and try

Shes just too wonderful
Shes just too sweet
Shes just too beautiful
Beautiful for me (for me-e)

And if we ever got together some day (some day)
I know exactly what people would say (would say)
Theyd say Hey look, there goes Beauty and The Beast

Cause youre too beautiful (Be-a-u-tiful)
To love me (for me) too sweet (Yeh...)
Too irresistible to every guy you meet (...To every single guy you meet)
Too wonderful, too fine
Too unapproachable ever to be mine

Shes just too wonderful (Shes just to...)
Shes just too sweet (Too irresistible to every guy you meet)
Shes just too beautiful (I wanna know, I wanna know, I wanna know...)
Beautiful for me (...Do I stand a chance with you baby)

Shes just too wonderful (Ooooh do I...)
Shes just too sweet (Stand a chance)
Shes just too beautiful (Hey what am I..)
Beautiful for me (..invisible?)

Dido - White Flag

I know you think that I shouldn't still love you,
I'll tell you that.
But if I didn't say it, well I'd still have felt it
where's the sense in that?
I promise I'm not trying to make your life harder
Or return to where we were

CHORUS:
Well I will go down with this ship
And I won't put my hands up and surrender
There will be no white flag above my door
I'm in love and always will be

I know I left too much mess and
destruction to come back again
And I caused but nothing but trouble
I understand if you can't talk to me again
And if you live by the rules of "it's over"
then I'm sure that that makes sense

- Repeat chorus -

And when we meet
Which I'm sure we will
All that was then
Will be there still
I'll let it pass
And hold my tongue
And you will think
That I've moved on....

- Repeat chorus x3 -

 

[chip]

"Before I Go"

Life hurts so bad
Don't want you sad
Just look back to
Good times we had
I'd give my soul for you I know
Want to hold you before I go
Before I go
I need you to know
I'm still alive in you
It's my time to go
Don't stay up late
I'm not afraid
And I don't want your heart to break
I know I've seen what's been unseen
Live fast, die young
It's part of me
(it's my time now)
Before I go
(it's my time now)
My soul is on it's way
(it's my time now)
I need you to know
Before I go

 

[chip]

"Cailin"

Well it seemed like yesterday
When the world was looking dark
It felt so cold and grey
And why the hell am I even here
What's the purpose, all I feel is guilt and hate and fear
'Til that you came along
My heart was empty
Like the soul was missing from a song
And I thought I'd loved a few
No one ever made me feel
The way that you do
Hey little girl
Look what you do
Oh, I love you
Hey little girl, I love you
Well I know I'm not always right
And girl it breaks my heart
When I have to see you cry
So many things I wanna say
Now I know that you're the reason
That I'm here today
Whenever you're here
Just stay near
We'll be alright, yeah alright
Hey little girl
Look what you do
Oh, I love you
Hey little girl
Look what you do, and you do
When all my love starts running thin
I got you my own Cailin
Hey little girl, I love you
I'll be alright
But I need you close
Please stay tonight
As long as you're here
Just stay near
We'll be alright, yeah alright

If you want some beautiful deep lyrics check out the voracity patch thread, there's a zip file for one of their songs.
it's truely moving

 

[Gregor Samsa]

Joy Division-The Eternal.
Procession moves on, the shouting is over,
Praise to the glory of loved ones now gone.
Talking aloud as they sit round their tables,
Scattering flowers washed down by the rain.
Stood by the gate at the foot of the garden,
Watching them pass like clouds in the sky,
Try to cry out in the heat of the moment,
Possessed by a fury that burns from inside.

Cry like a child, though these years make me older,
With children my time is so wastefully spent,
A burden to keep, though their inner communion,
Accept like a curse an unlucky deal.
Played by the gate at the foot of the garden,
My view stretches out from the fence to the wall,
No words could explain, no actions determine,
Just watching the trees and the leaves as they fall.

As depressing as they can be, I find the lyrics of Ian Curtis quite moving. (Especially those on Closer.) 'The Eternal' is probably the most depressing song I know, especially when you learn what the song is about. (It's about a child with Down's Syndrome, and his physically becoming an adult while remaining the same mentally )


Augie March-Owen's Lament.
Level your fretting
I won't be forgetting
The flush of your face
When I lifted you level to me and
A wattle tree framed your body
In whispers
Welling with the touch of the new spring
You said, kill me a dynasty
Or our love won't mean a thing
A bullet for a diamond ring.
A favour promised,
A promise delivered and more
To you

It's only a war, I'll be
Back to your shore
Before you know I'm gone
Then I'll cover your body

And if you have to go,
Please, go lightly
Keep it to a foxtrot, whether he's a fox or not
Keep it cold, keep all your heat for me
I'll be needing it for when I'm cold, you see

Let your children remind you of me
Whether by another
Or by the ghost of me in you

There goes my baby
I would think of you and a palm tree
Would cover your body and you

In love and war we are bound by a law
It goes to you, and then to yours
To recover my body
Recover my body

She bound me up and hugged me
O how the mother loves thee
She covered my body
In a ragged flag and bloody -
O not on your life

Quite eloquent. I like it.

Radiohead-Street Spirit (Fadeout)
Rows of houses all bearing down on me
I can feel their blue hands touching me
All these things in all positions
All these things will one day take control
And fade out again and fade out

This machine will will not communicate these thoughts
And the strain I am under
Be a world child form a circle before we all go under
And fade out again and fade out again

Cracked eggs dead birds
Scream as they fight for life
I can feel death can see its beady eyes
All these things into frution
All these things well one day swallow whole
And fade out again and fade out again.

Immerse your soul in love.

This song creates a strong impression from vague imagery, which leaves you to imagine the exact world being conveyed. (To get analytical), and I view the line 'Be a world child, form a circle before we all go under' as personally and globally relevant.

Mudvayne - (Per)version Of A Truth

When everything is lost
Haunting us with questions
Will we ever find the smiling side is hidden behind the sweating eyes
Dead inside a scream
That's pouring from me
I'm planted in this skin this dirty filthy skin
The bird behind the walls the bearer of a gift Fuck You Gift

Truth does not exist
But the lies do
Truth does not exist
But the lies do
They're buried in the skin Evolved
Perversion of a truth
I'm stuck here,
Inside of life bearing in me you are
Born into a world, never asked to be here,
Doesn't exist
It doesn't exist
Truth
Doesn't exist
It doesn't exist
Truth

Always inside a tragedy
Marooned as I remember
Try and let me go up to space
The fool that fell from heaven
HEAVEN

Perversion of a truth, I'm stuck here,
Inside of life bearing in me you are
Born into a world, never asked to be here
Doesn't exist
Doesn't exist
Truth

Maybe we're all children of a star
Misguided in direction, a misdirection
Pardon me while I pray for NONE

IM NOT THE ONLY ONE that walks between the rain
There are many
IM NOT THE ONLY ONE and everything is lost that doesn't surrender

Perversion of a truth
I'm stuck there
Inside of life, bearing in me you are
I walked into a world never asking me

Versions of the truth
IM NOT THE ONLY ONE
Your versions of the truth
I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE
Your versions of the truth
IM NOT THE ONLY ONE
Your versions of the truth
IM NOT THE ONLY ONE
