The Inspiring Lyrics That Mean Something to You Philosophically or Spiritually Thread
Avalon - Roxy Music
Now the party's over I'm so tired Then I see you coming Out of nowhere Much communication and emotion Without conversation or a notion Avalon When the samba takes you Out of nowhere And the background's fading Out of focus Yes the picture changing Every moment And your destination You don't know it Avalon When you bossa nova There's no holding Would you have me dancing Out of nowhere Avalon

Iron Maiden- Phantom of the Opera
Ive been looking so long for you Now you wont get away from my grasp. Youve been living so long in hiding In hiding behind that false mask. And you know and I know that You aint got long now to last. Your looks and your feelings Are just the remains of your past. Youre standing in the wings, There you wait for the curtain to fall. Knowing the terror and holding You have on us all. Yeah, I know that youre gonna Scratch me, maim me and maul. You know Im helpless from Your mesmerising cat call. Keep your distance, walk away, Dont take his bait. Dont you stray, dont fade away. Watch your step, hes out to get you, Come what may. Dont you stray, from the narrow way. Im running and hiding in my Dreams youre always there. Youre the phantom of the opera, Youre the devil, youre just out to scare. You damaged my mind And my soul it just floats through the air. Haunt me, you taunt me, You torture me back at your lair.

Agents of Change- Existenial Calisthenics
Somewhere I heard that life is a game of chess? If I may protest, Trivial Pursuit, I would say is the name that best Describes the pain & stress, brings alive the shame and tense moments that we go through til We're all layed to rest We slave for cents, and dollars just to pay the rent It doesn't make no sense, our ancestors shared their caves & tents So all of a sudden we can lay cement, We think that we've evolved We're really just some apes who shave their face & neck I watch this great descent and pray my words will make a dent We may prevent extinction, but we have to face our gravest threat It's not the comet or Osama in his favorite jet Our worst opponent yet, is ourselves, though we may repent My main regret is that I've shown the same neglect That most humans show their brain It's like a train that's on it's way to wreck Some say my words mean less than a grain or speck While others say my message sends 'em on an extraplanar quest I don't know who to trust, & so I watch the rays reflect I'm staring out the window, for this life I'm in major debt I pay respect, with a little bit of change that I got & with the little bit of brains that I rock I say crazy lyricist (or however its spelled?)

Tool - Lateralus
black then white are all i see in my infancy. red & yellow then came to be, reaching out to me, lets me see. as below, so above & beyond, i imagine. drawn beyond the lines of reason. push the envelope. watch it bend. over thinking, over analyzing separates the body from the mind. withering my intuition, missing opportunities & i must feed my will to feel my moment drawing way outside the lines. [chorus] over thinking, over analyzing separates the body from the mind. withering my intuition leaving opportunities behind. feed my will to feel this moment, urging me to cross the line. reaching out to embrace the random. reaching out to embrace whatever may come. i embrace my desire to, feel the rhythm, to feel connected enough to step aside & weep like a widow to feel inspired, to fathom the power, to witness the beauty, to bathe in the fountain, to swing on the spiral, to swing on the spiral of our divinity & still be a human. with my feet upon the ground i move myself between the sounds & open wide to suck it in. i feel it move across my skin. i'm reaching up & reaching out. i'm reaching for the random or what ever will bewilder me. what ever will bewilder me. & following our will & wind we may just go where no one's been. we'll ride the spiral to the end & may just go where no one's been. spiral out. keep going.

"Missed The Boat" - Modest Mouse
While we're on the subject Could we change the subject now? I was knocking on your ear's door but you were always out Looking towards the future We were begging for the past Well we knew we had the good things But those never seemed to last Oh please just last Everyone's unhappy Everyone's ashamed Well we all just got caught looking At somebody else's page Well nothing ever went Quite exactly as we planned Our ideas held no water But we used them like a damn Oh, and we carried it all so well As if we got a new position Oh, and I laugh all the way to hell Saying yes, this is a fine promotion Oh, and I laugh all the way to hell Of course everyone goes crazy Over such and such and such We made ourselves a tiller We just used it as a crutch We were certainly uncertain At least I'm pretty sure I am Well we didn't need the water But we just built that go god damn Oh, and I know this of myself I assume as much for other people Oh, and I know this of myself We've listened more to life's end gong Than the sound of life's sweet bliss Was it ever worth it? Was there all that much to gain? Well we knew we missed the boat And we'd already missed the plane We didn't read the invite We just dance at our wake All our favorites were playing So we could shake, shake, shake, shake, shake Tiny curtains open and we heard the tiny clap of little hands A tiny man would tell a little joke and get a tiny laugh from all the folks Sitting drifting around in bubbles and thinking it was us that carried them When we finally got it figured out that we had truly missed the boat Oh, and we carried it all so well As if we got a new position Oh, and we owned all the tools ourselves But not the skills to make a shelf with Oh, what useless tools ourselves Tool - Parabola We barely remember who or what came before this precious moment, We are choosing to be here right now. Hold on, stay inside This holy reality, this holy experience. Choosing to be here in This body. This body holding me. Be my reminder here that I am not alone in This body, this body holding me, feeling eternal All this pain is an illusion. Alive, I In this holy reality, in this holy experience. Choosing to be here in This body. This body holding me. Be my reminder here that I am not alone in This body, this body holding me, feeling eternal All this pain is an illusion. Twirling round with this familiar parable. Spinning, weaving round each new experience. Recognize this as a holy gift and celebrate this chance to be alive and breathing. This body holding me reminds me of my own mortality. Embrace this moment. Remember. We are eternal. All this pain is an illusion. there is nothing unmeaningful in any of Tool's songs, half the time though its up to the listener to create the meaning.

BOB MARLEY NATURAL MYSTIC
There's a natural mystic Blowing through the air If you listen carefully now you will hear This could be the first trumpet Might as well be the last Many more will have to suffer Many more will have to die Don't ask me why Things are not the way they used to be I won't tell no lie One and all got to face reality now Though I try to find the answer To all the questions they ask Though I know it's impossible To go living through the past Don't tell no lie There's a natural mystic Blowing through the air Can't keep them down If you listen carefully now you will hear Such a natural mystic Blowing through the air This could be the first trumpet Might as well be the last Many more will have to suffer Many more will have to die Don't ask me why There's a natural mystic Blowing through the air I won't tell no lie If you listen carefully now, you will hear There's a Natural Mystic blowing through the air Such a Natural Mystic, blowing through the air There's a Natural Mystic, blowing through the air Such a Natural Mystic, blowing through the air Such a Natural Mystic, blowing through the air Such a Natural Mystic, blowing through the air Above&Beyond-stealing time I'm stealing time from my own life.. all the hours that God sents. My future is a valentine stolen in the perfect crime. And as the hours go flashing by I'm winding down the windows and I know I'm living out of line but with a blazing smile I'll die... PATTI SMITH DANCING BAREFOOT She is benediction She is addicted to thee She is the root connection She is connecting with he Here I go and I don't know why I fell so ceaselessly Could it be he's taking over me...? I'm dancing barefoot Heading for a spin Some strange music draws me in Makes me come on like some heroine She is sublimation She is the essence of thee She is concentrating on He, who is chosen by she Here I go and I don't know why I spin so ceaselessly Could it be he's taking over me...? I'm dancing barefoot Heading for a spin Some strange music draws me in Makes me come on like some heroine She is re-creation She, intoxicated by thee She has the slow sensation that He is levitating with she ... Here I go and I don't know why I spin so ceaselessly 'Til I lose my sense of gravity... I'm dancing barefoot Heading for a spin Some strange music draws me in Makes me come on like some heroine (Oh god I fell for you...) The plot of our life sweats in the dark like a face The mystery of childbirth, of childhood itself Grave visitations, what is it that calls to us? Why must we pray screaming? Why must not death be redefined? We shut our eyes we stretch out our arms, and whirl on a pane of glass An affixation a fix on anything, the line of life the limb of a tree The hands of he and the promise that she is blessed among women. (Oh god I fell for you...) and many more..

"Overcome (The Recapitulation)" by RX Bandits:
We've had enough of these politician's wars All we need right now is love We've had enough of these military scoreboards What we need right now is love Turn it up The future is held in the hands who write the textbooks Ignorance is bred when falsified thinking is taught To the youth instead of past mistakes and mind elevation, Like the graves that manifest destiny has created So we can build our capitalist consumer based economy, To build, market, and sell commodities we don't need But we are trained to believe like celebrity imaging Well I'm here to take my feelings back and I hope that you will be with me I can't wait for that day When I hear us all screaming. Ahhhhhhhhh, I can't wait for that day When I hear us all singing together, Ooooohhhhhh I can't wait for the day when I hear us all screaming, HERE COMES THE REVOLUTION. When every race, color, and creed of militant human beings stand up With fists together for substance and true meaning Because right now we got our feet stuck in cement We're too caught up in a material status quo punishment And one thing is for sure and that's the sun will always set, Darling you can bet our moon is quite the opposite So baby take an axe to your makeup kit Set ablaze the billboards and their advertisements Love with all your hearts and never forget How good it feels to be alive and strive for your desire Just cause you can't see your cage doesn't mean that you are free When there are laws against nature but its okay for you to be Addicted to over the counter prescriptions And magazines dictate all our human relations I'm not buying, no I'm not giving in To a culture that objectifies all of our women I'm not buying, no I'm not consuming The apathetic dribble on the news media's chin I'm not buying, no I'm not giving in The lies that are sold through textbooks to children I'm not buying, no I'm not consuming Cause the positive will always overcome the negative right And we stay inside, its right outside, We stand in line We all enjoy the fences to keep it at bay But I'm not giving in.

Jack Johnson - If I Could
A brand new baby was born yesterday, just in time Papa cried, baby cried, said your tears are like mine I heard some words from a friend on the phone who didn't sound so good The doctor gave him 2 weeks to live I'd give him more.. if I could You know that I would now, if only I could Down the middle drops one more grain of sand They say that, new life makes losin' life easier to understand Words are kind, they help ease the mind, i miss my old friend And though you gotta go, we'll keep a piece of your soul One goes out, one comes in You know that I would now.. if only I could
