Incredible song to listen to tripping. Tv on the Radio - Province Suddenly, all your history's ablaze Try to breath as the world desintegrates Just like autumn leaves we're in for change Holding tenderly to what remains And all your memories are as precious as gold And all the honey and the fire which you stole Have you running through all your red cheek days Shaking loose these songs from their sacred hiding space Hold your heart courageously as we walk into this dark place Stand, stare fast, erect and see that love is the province of the brave Push under this expanse of buzzing stars Let this burning brightly illumintate where we are Fill this hallow that lovers voices occupy Let it follow That we let it free, let it fly Breaking open the walls of this cage Intoxicated, oh so amazed Much like falcons tumbling from our hearts that blaze Conjoined, talons engaged Hold these hearts courageously as we walk into this dark place Stand, stare fast beside me and see that love is the province of the brave http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZqI0FYN-r5c
s Darkness at the break of noon Shadows even the silver spoon The handmade blade, the child's balloon Eclipses both the sun and moon To understand you know too soon There is no sense in trying. Pointed threats, they bluff with scorn Suicide remarks are torn From the fools gold mouthpiece The hollow horn plays wasted words Proved to warn That he not busy being born Is busy dying. Temptation's page flies out the door You follow, find yourself at war Watch waterfalls of pity roar You feel to moan but unlike before You discover That you'd just be One more person crying. So don't fear if you hear A foreign sound to you ear It's alright, Ma, I'm only sighing. As some warn victory, some downfall Private reasons great or small Can be seen in the eyes of those that call To make all that should be killed to crawl While others say don't hate nothing at all Except hatred. Disillusioned words like bullets bark As human gods aim for their marks Made everything from toy guns that sparks To flesh-colored Christs that glow in the dark It's easy to see without looking too far That not much Is really sacred. While preachers preach of evil fates Teachers teach that knowledge waits Can lead to hundred-dollar plates Goodness hides behind its gates But even the President of the United States Sometimes must have To stand naked. An' though the rules of the road have been lodged It's only people's games that you got to dodge And it's alright, Ma, I can make it. Advertising signs that con you Into thinking you're the one That can do what's never been done That can win what's never been won Meantime life outside goes on All around you. You loose yourself, you reappear You suddenly find you got nothing to fear Alone you stand without nobody near When a trembling distant voice, unclear Startles your sleeping ears to hear That somebody thinks They really found you. A question in your nerves is lit Yet you know there is no answer fit to satisfy Insure you not to quit To keep it in your mind and not forget That it is not he or she or them or it That you belong to. Although the masters make the rules For the wise men and the fools I got nothing, Ma, to live up to. For them that must obey authority That they do not respect in any degree Who despite their jobs, their destinies Speak jealously of them that are free Cultivate their flowers to be Nothing more than something They invest in. While some on principles baptized To strict party platforms ties Social clubs in drag disguise Outsiders they can freely criticize Tell nothing except who to idolize And then say God Bless him. While one who sings with his tongue on fire Gargles in the rat race choir Bent out of shape from society's pliers Cares not to come up any higher But rather get you down in the hole That he's in. But I mean no harm nor put fault On anyone that lives in a vault But it's alright, Ma, if I can't please him. Old lady judges, watch people in pairs Limited in sex, they dare To push fake morals, insult and stare While money doesn't talk, it swears Obscenity, who really cares Propaganda, all is phony. While them that defend what they cannot see With a killer's pride, security It blows the minds most bitterly For them that think death's honesty Won't fall upon them naturally Life sometimes Must get lonely. My eyes collide head-on with stuffed graveyards False gods, I scuff At pettiness which plays so rough Walk upside-down inside handcuffs Kick my legs to crash it off Say okay, I have had enough What else can you show me ? And if my thought-dreams could been seen They'd probably put my head in a guillotine But it's alright, Ma, it's life, and life only.
Ive always found it insperational but others my not 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 [Chorus:] 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 reflection Is it all you want it to be? What if you could look right through the cracks? Would you find yourself Find yourself afraid to see? What if all the world's inside of your head Just creations of your own? Your devils and your gods All the living and the dead And you're really all alone? You can live in this illusion You can choose to believe You keep looking but you can't find the woods While you're hiding in the trees [Chorus:] What if everything around you Isn't quite as it seems? What if all the world you used to know Is an elaborate dream? And if you look at your reflection Is it 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 dig my toes into the sand The ocean looks like a thousand diamonds strewn across a blue blanket I lean against the wind, pretend that I am weightless And in this moment I am happy Happy I wish you were here I wish you were here I wish you were here I wish you were, here I lay my head onto the sand The sky resembles a back-lit canopy with holes punched in it I'm counting UFO's, I signal them with my lighter And in this moment I am happy Happy I wish you were here I wish you were here I wish you were, here Wish you were here The world's a rollercoaster And I am not strapped in Maybe I should hold with care But my hands are busy in the air, saying I wish you were here I wish you were I wish you were here I wish you were here I wish you were, here Wish you were here
kris kristofferson song written after janis joplin died... "Epitaph" Her close friends have gathered. Lord, ain't it a shame Grieving together Sharing the blame. But when she was dying Lord, we let her down. There's no use cryin' It can't help her now. The party's all over Drink up and go home. It's too late to love her And leave her alone. Just say she was someone Lord, so far from home Whose life was so lonesome She died all alone Who dreamed pretty dreams That never came true Lord, why was she born So black and blue? Oh, why was she born So black and blue?
hell yea dude! Tool changed my life and its nice to see some tool instead of an assload of just bob marley
Sigur Rós's () album. There are no "lyrics" per say. All of the tracks are untitled. All of the vocals used are gibberish with a few Icelandic syllables mixed in. In the CD booklet, after the cover, the pages are completely empty and meant for you to write in it how you perceive or interpret their songs. Beautiful album. One of my absolute favorites.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=unb3m_6ceZQ This was a stormy ending Water sank our boats Shouldn't we, oh, shouldn't we Throw our hopes into the ocean The ocean The warm grey sea Tell me or kick me or hold me or please believe This is their busted future And this is our dream Which one do you believe in, believe in, believe in, believe in Together, together, together, together Never to retreat Mystery and wonder Messy hearts made of thunder Somewhere there's a soldier Sleeping in a field Somewhere there's a mother, a mother, a mother A mother, a mother, a mother Please believe in gentle dreams The sweetness of people Whistling in their sleep The angels in your palm Sing gentle worried songs The sweetness of our dreams Like mountains made of steam The angels in your palm Sing gentle worried songs And the sweetness of our dreams Like mountains made of steam The angels in your palm Sing gentle worried songs The sweetness of our dreams Like mountains made of steam
Saw a few good songs already posted. Incubus S.C.I.E.N.C.E. redefine Imagine your brain as a canister filled with ink yeah Now think of your body as the pen where the ink resides Fuse the two; KAPOW! What are you know? You're the humane magic marker Won't you please surprise my eyes?! It's in your nature, you can paint whatever picture you like No matter what Ted Koppel says on channel 4 tonight So modify this third rock from the sun By painting myriads of pictures with the colors of one I'm sick of painting in black and white My pen is dry now I'm uptight So sick of limiting myself to fit your definition Picture the scene, where whatever you thought, would, in the blink of an eye, manifest and become illustrated You'd be sure man that every line drawn reflected a life That you loved not an existence that you hated So, must we demonstrate that we can't get it straight? We've painted a picture, now we're drowning in paint Let's figure out what the fuck it's about before the picture we painted Chews us up and spits us out I'm sick of painting in black and white My pen is dry, now I'm uptight So sick of limiting myself to fit your definition
S.C.I.E.N.C.E. and Fungus amongus however u spell it i always misspell it. are AWWESOME albums. you dont know incubus till you hear these.they are ammazzizizing.
A few off the top of my head. Buck 65 - "Phil" 20 some years is a long walk Even if its not in a straight line You see a lot of things in the distance You know what they say about great minds You and I think about the same things Dream the same dreams, play the same games We started out in the same place Believe it or not, we got the same names Everything happens for a good cause Whether it be victory or loss And the road may turn into a runway But you'll know what to do some day Trust me I've seen it all before I've climbed to the tops of the tallest trees To get away from the deep water To find a touch of the smallest breeze Go find a girl with a low voice Who holds the world in her bare hands You'll fall in love, you'll have no choice Once you are given a fair chance For the first time you will sleep well Take a deep breath, see the sun shine Hold on to her for dear life And then watch the whole world unwind Ask her to show you some magic And I guarantee that she will say yes Tell her you've seen forever and You'll be together not a day less Just know until that time comes And after you've crossed that first mile That the hardest part is behind you And all of the pain will be worth while From storm clouds come angels Let pain give you pleasure From dirt grows the flower When faith can't be measured --- Xavier Rudd - "Messages" So come sit down Will you talk with me now? Let me see through your eyes Where there is so much life We are biding our time For these myths to unwind These changes we will confront So please beware With every place that you had Look to your soul For these things that you know For the trees that we see Cannot forever breathe With the changes they will confront You know some people They just wont understand They just wont understand these things Thank you for your message But I don't understand No, I just wont understand these things This sacred land it has Seen many hands, it has Wealth and gold yet it is Fragile and old and all the Greedy souls just don't care to know Of the changes it will confront So speak out loud of the Things you are proud And if you love this coast Keep it clean as it evolves 'Cause the way that it shines May just dwindle with time With the changes it will confront You know some people They just wont understand They just wont understand these things Thank you for your message But I don't understand No, I just wont understand these things You know some people They just wont understand They just wont understand these things Thank you for your message But I don't understand No, I just wont understand these things So hold nice and close The ones that get to your soul So that when it is cold You wont feel so alone Cos the roads that you take May just crack and break With the changes you will confront With each gift that you share You may heal and repair With each choice that you make You may help someone's day Well I know you are strong May your journey be long Now I wish you the best of luck Well I know you are strong May your journey be long And now I wish you the best of luck --- The Dandy Warhols - "Big Indian" Well my friends do me so right I'm lucky this far Maybe it's karma I get over them, but Only at times And I thank my lucky stars I wish I may, I wish that I might Just keep an open mind All of the time My old man told me one time You never get wise, you only get older And most things, you never know why But that's fine When the future is frightening And I seem to be fighting it Well soon as it's brightening Then I, I feel fine, and then I I feel fine Well my friends do me so right I'm lucky this far Maybe it's karma I get over them, but Only at times Well the future is frightening And I seem to be fighting it But soon as it's brightening Well the future is brightening The future is frightening, but I I feel fine
TOOL - EULOGY ---------------------------------------------------------------------- He had a lot to say. He had a lot of nothing to say. We'll miss him. We'll miss him. He had a lot to say. He had a lot of nothing to say. We'll miss him. We're gonna miss him We're gonna miss him So long. We wish you well. You told us how you weren't afraid to die. Well then, so long. Don't cry. Or feel too down. Not all martyrs see divinity. But at least you tried. Standing above the crowd, He had a voice that was strong and loud. We'll miss him. We'll miss him. Ranting and pointing his finger At everything but his heart. We'll miss him. We'll miss him. We're gonna miss him. We're gonna miss him. No way to recall What it was that you had said to me, Like I care at all. But you were so loud. You sure could yell. You took a stand on every little thing And so loud. Standing above the crowd, He had a voice that was strong and loud and I Swallowed his facade cuz I'm so Eager to identify with Someone above the ground, Someone who seemed to feel the same, Someone prepared to lead the way, with Someone who would die for me. Will you? Will you now? Would you die for me? Don't you fuckin lie. Don't you step out of line. Don't you step out of line. Don't you step out of line. Don't you fuckin lie. You've claimed all this time that you would die for me. Why then are you so surprised when you hear your own Eulogy? He had a lot to say. He had a lot of nothing to say. He had a lot to say. He had a lot of nothing to say. Come down. Get off your fuckin cross. We need the fuckin space to nail the next fool martyr. To ascend you must die. You must be crucified For our sins and our lies. Goodbye!!!
