[King for a Day]

song lyrics are kinda like poems
post your favourites here

[Aiden]

I don't think you're allowed to do that. Those dang copyright laws, ya know. I mean, unless you write your own songs... but other than that....

[piñata]

Actually, I saw a thread with other people's song lyrics on Kait's site. As long as you're not making any money off of them, I can't see the harm in posting them. However, this thread does need to be moved to the music forum.

*moveifies*

[Aiden]

ok pinata, we will go by your great wisdom hahaha

[AnimaStone]

Favorite lyrics? You caught me off guard... I need more time to get a complete list together. Oh well, here goes:

"I ain't good looking, but I'm someone's child." -Oasis, "D'You Know What I Mean?"

"So in the absence of a way of life, just repeat this again and again, and again..." -Blur, "Pop Scene"

"There's someone in my head, but it's not me." -Pink Floyd, "Brain Damage"

"They got a name for the winners in the world / I want a name when I lose..." -Steely Dan, "Deacon Blues"



....and that's a few. There are probably about 5 more I can't think of because it's almost midnight.

I love you... I'll kill you by Enigma

"What's your favorite dish? I won't cook it but I'll order it from Sanzabar!" - Fuck Her Gently by Tenacious D

The screen door slams
Mary's dress waves
Like a vision she dances across the porch
As the radio plays
Roy Orbison singing for the lonely
Hey that's me and I want you only
Don't turn me home again
I just can't face myself alone again
Don't run back inside
darling you know just what I'm here for
So you're scared and you're thinking
That maybe we ain't that young anymore
Show a little faith, there's magic in the night
You ain't a beauty, but hey you're alright
Oh and that's alright with me

You can hide 'neath your covers
And study your pain
Make crosses from your lovers
Throw roses in the rain
Waste your summer praying in vain
For a savior to rise from these streets
Well now I'm no hero
That's understood
All the redemption I can offer, girl
Is beneath this dirty hood
With a chance to make it good somehow
Hey what else can we do now
Except roll down the window
And let the wind blow back your hair
Well the night's busting open
These two lanes will take us anywhere
We got one last chance to make it real
To trade in these wings on some wheels
Climb in back
Heaven's waiting on down the tracks
Oh oh come take my hand
Riding out tonight to case the promised land
Oh oh Thunder Road, oh Thunder Road
oh Thunder Road
Lying out there like a killer in the sun
Hey I know it's late we can make it if we run
Oh Thunder Road, sit tight take hold
Thunder Road

Well I got this guitar
And I learned how to make it talk
And my car's out back
If you're ready to take that long walk
>From your front porch to my front seat
The door's open but the ride it ain't free
And I know you're lonely
For words that I ain't spoken
But tonight we'll be free
All the promises'll be broken
There were ghosts in the eyes
Of all the boys you sent away
They haunt this dusty beach road
In the skeleton frames of burned out Chevrolets

They scream your name at night in the street
Your graduation gown lies in rags at their feet
And in the lonely cool before dawn
You hear their engines roaring on
But when you get to the porch they're gone
On the wind, so Mary climb in
It's a town full of losers
And I'm pulling out of here to win.

- Thunder Road, Bruce Springsteen

The whole song rocks. ;D

[Ape]

Well i can't pick a favorite but this is pretty close.

Sitting in the empty black
The last slivers of dusk have passed
Accept the dawn to ease the fear
One day I will not be here
Death she comes and with her thread
Upon me ties a mask for dead
Its tears of blood begin to seep
And bleed the sky

Descend the shades of night
Death shines her golden light
Across a blackened sky
All our hate is a product of a world...
We created

Ashen clouds obscure my brain
Doubts begin to turn to shame
Insecureness tears at bliss
I hate me for this weakness
Faith drives me to carry on
And take the road less travelled on
Resentment swallowed means to drown
The poison down
The shades of night descend

Descend the shades of night
Death shines her golden light
Across a blackened sky
All our hate is a product of a world...
We created

Scream with me
Bleed with me
Seethe with me
Sing with me

Free me

Descend the shades of night
Death shines her golden light
Across a blackened sky
The shades of night descend

"Descend the Shades of Night" - Machine Head

[Ape]

What use is a lyrics thread without some Vehemence!!! ;D

"You want to die and kill for god

Where has the world gone, where is the warmth of the light?
What happened to living for the sake of life?
What kind of god tells you to die?
You ignorant slave - such a waste of life!

You want to die and kill for god

I should take this moment to thank you for helping the world to see
How religion is to blame for the end of humanity
Now you can go back to strapping the bomb to your chest
Maybe I'll see you later when the time is right
To fall...into a sea of flesh

Kill For God

What happened to your mind?
Why must we all die?
The only way to be safe is to kill your god"


-Vehemence, "Kill for God"
