Recommended Posts

(It starts with)
One thing / I don?t know why
It doesn?t even matter how hard you try
Keep that in mind / I designed this rhyme
To explain in due time
All I know
time is a valuable thing
Watch it fly by as the pendulum swings
Watch it count down to the end of the day
The clock ticks life away
It?s so unreal
Didn?t look out below
Watch the time go right out the window
Trying to hold on / but didn?t even know
Wasted it all just to
Watch you go
I kept everything inside and even though I tried / it all fell apart
What it meant to me / will eventually / be a memory / of a time when I tried
so hard
And got so far
But in the end
It doesn't even matter
I had to fall
To lose it all
But in the end
It doesn't even matter
One thing / I don?t know why
It doesn?t even matter how hard you try
Keep that in mind / I designed this rhyme
To remind myself how
I tried so hard
In spite of the way you were mocking me
Acting like I was part of your property
Remembering all the times you fought with me
I?m surprised it got so (far)
Things aren?t the way they were before
You wouldn?t even recognize me anymore
Not that you knew me back then
But it all comes back to me
In the end
You kept everything inside and even though I tried / it all fell apart
What it meant to me / will eventually / be a memory / of a time when I
I tried so hard
And got so far
But in the end
It doesn?t even matter
I had to fall
To lose it all
But in the end
It doesn?t even matter
I've put my trust in you
Pushed as far as I can go
For all this
There?s only one thing you should know
I've put my trust in you
Pushed as far as I can go
For all this
There?s only one thing you should know
I tried so hard
And got so far
But in the end
It doesn?t even matter
I had to fall
To lose it all
But in the end
It doesn?t even matter

Was there a reason why you chose In The End? I don't really want people just posting songs and lyrics without even explaining why it has beautiful lyrics. Kapesh?

Another update to my list of songs is Good Riddance (Time of your life) by Green Day. I sang this song for my Graduation from Primary School and I nearly broke down after singing it because I love that song.


"Good Riddance (Time Of Your Life)"

Another turning point, a fork stuck in the road
Time grabs you by the wrist, directs you where to go
So make the best of this test, and don't ask why
It's not a question, but a lesson learned in time

It's something unpredictable, but in the end it's right.
I hope you had the time of your life.

So take the photographs, and still frames in your mind
Hang it on a shelf in good health and good time
Tattoos of memories and dead skin on trial
For what it's worth it was worth all the while

It's something unpredictable, but in the end it's right.
I hope you had the time of your life.

It's something unpredictable, but in the end it's right.
I hope you had the time of your life.

It's something unpredictable, but in the end it's right.
I hope you had the time of your life.

If I get the time, I'll add the lyrics, but my top 5 Most Beautiful and Why are as follows:

5. Bridge Over Troubled Water (Simon & Garfunkle)- I totally care for the people I care for, and this song reflects my willingness to sacrifice things for my friend's good.

4. Bound To Fall (Crosby, Stills, Nash, and Young)- This song reminds me of the... ups and downs that people go through... sort of hard to explain.

3. Carry On My Wayward Son (Kansas)- Redemption, humility, and restoration all rolled into one incredible Rock'n'Roll Package. One of the few songs that brings a tear to my eye.

2. Long Distance Winner (Buckingham & Nicks)- The melodic edge of Stephanie Nick's voice coupled with the greatest guitar player of all time, Lindsay Buckingham (move over Phil Keagy and Jimmi Hendrix) is incredible.

Dark flowers and your face fascinate me/You love only the tallest dreams/etc.

1. Piano Man (Billy Joel)- What can I say? I commentary on the dregs of life, yet romanticized into a sort of bluesy ballad. This verse, the first, particuarly captures me:

It's 9 o'clock on a Saturday, and the regular crowd shuffles in,
There's an old man sitting next to me, making love to his tonic and gin,
He says 'Son can you play me a melody, I'm not really sure how it goes,
But it's said and it sweet and I knew it complete,
When I wore a younger man's clothes'

Something about the fleeting vigor of youth and dying dreams just captivates me like nothing else.

[quote name='Daermon_Nashabe']Another update to my list of songs is Good Riddance (Time of your life) by Green Day.[/quote]
[COLOR=Red][FONT=Trebuchet MS]So that's what the song's name is! Thanks Daermon! I've been looking for that for ages!

Well my song choice would be my high-school graduation song - " So Far Away" by Staind.

[B]This is my life
It's not what it was before
All these feelings I've shared
And these are my dreams
That I'd never lived before
Somebody shake me 'cause I
I must be sleeping

Now that we're here,it's so far away
All the struggle we thought was in vain
All the mistakes,one life contained
They all finally start to go away
Now that we're here, it's so far awar
And I feel like I can face the day I can forgive, and I'm not ashamed
To be the person I am today

These are my words
That I've never said before
I think I'm doing okay
And this is the smile
That I've shown before
Somebody shake me 'cause I
I must be sleeping

Now that we're here,it's so far away
All the struggle we thought was in vain
All the mistakes,one life contained
They all finally start to go away
Now that we're here, it's so far awar
And I feel like I can face the day I can forgive, and I'm not ashamed
To be the person I am today

I'm so afraid of waking
Please don't shake me
Afraid of waking
Please don't shake me

Now that we're here,it's so far away
All the struggle we thought was in vain
All the mistakes,one life contained
They all finally start to go away
Now that we're here, it's so far awar
And I feel like I can face the day I can forgive, and I'm not ashamed
To be the person I am today[/B]

I think this was the best song for our high-school grad because it explains a lot about school, the future and the person that you are.

My favorite would have to be Omnisoul - Waiting (Save Your Life)
If you haven't heard the song, i recommend you read the lyrics BEFORE you listen to it : )

Waiting (Save Your Life)


Haven?t you had enough of my brain
It?s on the table I?ve got no more to say
If I bore you get out of my way
This one?s for you
So cut me a break cause I can?t wait
I?m the same I was when we first met
And now I feel you?re pulling away
So just give me the word
And I?ll leave today

But if you want me to I?ll be the one for you
Maybe I can save your life
At times you?ve hated me, ain?t that how love should be
So just let me save your life

There?s a line formed you can?t see
I?ve been waiting you give nothing for free
But there?s a yearning it?s deep and calm
And time has burnt me

So cut me a break cause I can?t wait
I?m the same I was when we first met
And now I feel you?re pulling away
So just give me the word
And I?ll leave today
Yes I?ll leave today

But if you want me to I?ll be the one for you
Maybe I can save your life
At times you?ve hated me, ain?t that how love should be
So just let me save your life

Don?t you know me
I?m helpless without you
I watched you sleep so I could dream of you

If you want me to I?ll be the one for you
Maybe I?
At times you?ve hated me, ain?t that how love should be
So just let me save your life

Closing Time - Tom Waits


Well I hope that I don't fall in love with you
'Cause falling in love just makes me blue,
Well the music plays and you display your heart for me to see,
I had a beer and now I hear you calling out for me
And I hope that I don't fall in love with you.

Well the room is crowded, people everywhere
And I wonder, should I offer you a chair?
Well if you sit down with this old clown, take that frown and break it,
Before the evening's gone away, I think that we could make it,
And I hope that I don't fall in love with you.

Well the night does funny things inside a man
These old tom-cat feelings you don't understand,
Well I turn around to look at you, you light a cigarette,
I wish I had the guts to bum one, but we've never met,
And I hope that I don't fall in love with you.

I can see that you are lonesome just like me, and it being late,
You'd like some some company,
Well I turn around to look at you, and you look back at me,
The guy you're with has up and split, the chair next to you's free,
And I hope that you don't fall in love with me.

Now it's closing time, the music's fading out
Last call for drinks, I'll have another stout.
Well I turn around to look at you, you're nowhere to be found,
I search the place for your lost face, guess I'll have another round
And I think that I just fell in love with you.


We've all looked at someone from across the room and have had feelings of this nature. This song takes us through the spectrum of love in under 3 minutes and I believe we can all relate to it. The girl that got away... that you never even knew.

[color=#9933ff]I love when a thread is re-visited and it's one that I haven't posted in since I was married- it makes me think- damn I've changed in three years. :catgirl:

That said I've found some new music that I like- even though I do still like [B]Broken[/B] I can't help it that my boyfriend seems to think it's our song.

One of my new favorites with beautiful Lyrics is [B]Ojos de Cielos (Eyes of Heaven)[/B] The spanish lyrics are in italics and the english translations are in plain text

[CENTER][I]Juegan los momentos
Heridas sin palabras
Heridas con palabras
Sin apenas decir nada[/I]

The moments play
Wounds without words
Wounds with words
After hardly saying anything

[I]Apenas dices nada
Y nada es suficiente
Piensa que es demente
Hacer caso a la gente[/I]

You barely say nothing
And nothing is enough
(He) thinks it's stupid (crazy)
To pay attention to people

CHORUS:
-------------------------------
[I]Y yo
Si tu no estas
Ya no se estar[/I]

And me
If you are not around
I do not know how to exist

[I]Perdóname
Si alguna vez
Te hice llorar, ojos de cielo
Perdóname
Si alguna vez
Robe de tus labios un te quiero
Perdóname, perdóname[/I]

Forgive me
If once
I made you cry, heavenly eyes (sky eyes)
Forgive me
If once
I stole from your lips an I-love-you
Forgive me, forgive me
-------------------------------

[I]Sigo tus pisadas
Aunque a veces me pierdo
Me pierdo en mil preguntas
Y siempre acabo huyendo
Porque salir corriendo
Si te llevo aquí adentro
Hoy te hecho de menos
Pero es que tengo miedo[/I]

I follow your steps
Even though sometimes I lose myself
I lose myself in a thousand questions
And I always end up fleeing
Why go off running
If I have you here inside (inside my heart)
Today I've ignored you
But it's because I'm scared

CHORUS:

[I]Hoy aunque estés lejos, sigo aquí
Sabes que no puedo, no sin ti[/I]

Today even if you're far away, I remain here
You know that I can't, not without you[/CENTER]

After that the first verse and the chorus are repeated. I think it's a really nice song.[/color]

[SIZE=1] I think that Obstacle I by Interpol has some way of relating with alot of people, well at least those who've heard it.


[CENTER][B][U]Obstacle I[/B][/U]
By Interpol

I wish I could eat the salt off of your lost faded lips

We can cap the old times, make playing only logical harm
We can cap the old lines, make playing that nothing else will change

But she can read, Oh, she's bad
It's different now that I'm poor and aging. I'll never see this face again
You go stabbing yourself in the neck

We can find new ways of living make playing only logical harm
And we can top the old times, clay-making that nothing else will change

But she can read, Oh, she's bad
It's different now that I'm poor and aging, I'll never see this place again
You go stabbing yourself in the neck
But it's different now that I'm poor and aging, I'll never see this place again
And you go stabbing yourself in the neck

It's in the way that she poses, it's in the things that she puts in my head
Her stories are boring and stuff, she's always calling my bluff
She puts, she puts the weights into my little heart
And she gets in my room and she takes it apart
She puts the weights into my little heart
I said she puts the weights into my little heart

She packs it away

It's in the way that she walks
Her heaven is never enough
She puts the weights in my heart
She puts, oh she puts the weights into my little heart[/SIZE][/CENTER]

[B]"Nobody's Hero"[/B] by [B]Rush[/B].

While it is about the deaths of two people whom drummer Neil Peart knew, I like to think it's also about those people who the rest of the world may never hear about, but who have a profound impact on us nonetheless.

______________________________

I knew he was different in his sexuality
I went to his parties as a straight minority
It never seemed a threat to my masculinity
He only introduced me to a wider reality
As the years went by, we drifted apart
When I heard that he was gone
I felt a shadow cross my heart

[I]But he's nobody's hero
Save the drowning child
Cure the wasting disease
Hero -- lands the crippled airplane
Solves great mysteries
Hero -- not the handsome actor
Who plays a hero's role
Hero -- not the glamour girl
Who'd love to sell her soul
If anybody's buying,
Nobody's hero[/I]

I didn't know the girl, but I knew her family
All their lives were shattered in a nightmare of brutality
They try to carry on, try to bear the agony
Try to hold some faith in the goodness of humanity
As the years went by, we drifted apart
When I heard that she was gone
I felt a shadow cross my heart

[I]But she's nobody's hero
Is the voice of reason against the howling mob
Hero -- is the pride of purpose
In the unrewarding job
Hero -- not the champion player
Who plays the perfect game
Hero -- not the glamour boy
Who loves to sell his name
Everybody's buying
Nobody's hero[/I]

As the years went by, we drifted apart
When I heard that you were gone
I felt a shadow cross my heart

[I]But he's nobody's hero
Save the drowning child
Cure the wasting disease
Hero -- lands the crippled airplane
Solves great mysteries
Hero -- not the handsome actor
Who plays a hero's role
Hero -- not the glamour girl
Who'd love to sell her soul
If anybody's buying,
Nobody's hero
[/I]
[I]Hero[/I]

Well the first song that came to my mind was "The New Zero" by Rasputina.
A gorgeous song all-around.

[I]He has agreed
To take me
To the Ice Hotel from the magazine

What we will need
Is a gleaming key
Made of ice as well
By the finest ice machine.

It's there that no one will stare
At your jaws and your long fur
The claws in your fingers.

It's in the past when the passers by laughed
At your strange way of speaking
Your batteries leaking
Oh no

Oh God no
They don't know
The New Zero.

Oh God no
They don't know
The New Zero.

Uniforms worn
So leisurely.
The reindeer skins
The privacy

How was he born?
He's asking me
Flapping his fins
Very impressively.

It's there that no one will stare
At your jaws and your long fur
The claws in your fingers.

It's in the past when the passers by laughed
At your strange way of speaking
Your batteries leaking
Oh no

Oh God no (He Has Agreed)
They don't know (To Take Me)
The New Zero. (To The Ice Hotel)

Oh God no (He Has Agreed)
They don't know (To Take Me)
The New Zero. (To The Ice Hotel)

I really don't care and neither does he
If this hotel melts into the sea
Polished and so rare, this is the way that we see.
The coldness helps, it's our favorite remedy.

I really don't care and neither does he

[COLOR="DimGray"]LOL! I don't feel right about posting in this thread without letting at least three weeks lapse, haha. Here goes anyway:

[URL="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QkCyEbpuLMI"]I Get By by Honest Bob and the Factory-to-Dealer Incentives [/URL]
[I]
If I had you I'd hold you like a guitar
I could slay you with a well-placed F sharp barre
If you don't want to hear that tune I'll leave my fingers where they are

And every time I see your face I want to touch it
And I know I'll never touch it
I get by, I get by

And I can't tell how hard I tried
I can't reveal what I can't hide
I said that I was fine, I lied
But I can stick around and see you smile from the side

I say William Shakespeare had the right idea
Put your passion in a poem she won't hear
If your heart is whole again you can publish it next year

And every time I see your neck I want to kiss it
And I know I'll never kiss it
I get by, I get by

And I've been in my head too long
To know when what I think is wrong
But I can write another song
And I can stick around and see you as you sing along

I had another set of words to use instead of what I'm singing here
The rhymes were intricate and every line was filled with alliteration and the best poetic tricks
It demonstrated just how clearly I'm the perfect guy for you to hear
But in reality perfection isn't really what we want so we just throw words at the page
And we call it a masterpiece if any part of it sticks

I've been waiting on another bright idea
I've been waiting on another bright idea
I've been waiting on another bright idea
I've been waiting on another bright idea
I've been waiting on another bright idea
I've been waiting on another bright idea
I've been waiting on another bright idea
I've been working on a song that you won't hear
I've been working on a song that you won't hear
I've been working on a song for you, dear

And everybody tells me that I'm fine
And everybody tells me not to mind
And everybody says just toe the line
And everybody tells me that the world was made for me to play in but I don't believe them [/COLOR][/I]

I know that one!! :D i have it on CD somewere.
Anyways heres mine: (btw its the english translation of it :3)

Uninstall

It came from beyond the extreme reaches of our reality,
It came to laugh at our naive existences.
I am puzzled by the truth that slips through my hands even as I cover my ears.
Where in this thin body do I find the strength to stand?


Uninstall, uninstall.
I was told that I am just one of the countless specks of dust on this planet,
But that is something I cannot yet comprehend.
Uninstall, uninstall.
I have no choice but to pretend that
I am a warrior who knows no fear. Uninstall.

Our subconscious grows sharper without us realizing.
When I open my eyes to the contourless presence below my bed,
I am devoid of any feelings,
Except an impulse to destroy everything and anything.
Since I can't even choose the season of my passing...

Uninstall, uninstall.
If there's no one left to replace me,
Then I will take that regular daily life and
Uninstall, uninstall.
It makes me want to end everything with these hands.
It's not a bad thing to uninstall.

Uninstall, uninstall.
I was told that I am just one of the countless specks of dust on this planet,
But that is something I cannot yet comprehend.
Uninstall, uninstall.
I have no choice but to pretend that
I am a warrior who knows no fear. Uninstall.

I have the orignal and 2 remixes of this song, its sooo pritty ;3

[font=trebuchet ms] I don't know, they just really speak to me. You know?

Miley Cyrus [b]Nobody's Perfect[/b] Lyrics:

Everybody makes mistakes...
Everybody has those days.

ONE, TWO, THREE, FOUR!

Everybody makes mistakes...
Everybody has those days...
Everbody knows what, what I'm talkin' bout...
Everybody gets that way.
[x2]

Sometimes I'm in a jam
I've gotta make a plan
It might be crazy
I do it anyway
No way to know for sure
I'll figure out a cure
I'm patchin' up the holes
But then it overflows
If I'm not doin' to well
Why be so hard on my self?

[Chorus]
Nobody's perfect!
I gotta work it!
Again and again 'till I get it right
Nobody's perfect!
You live and you learn it!
And if I mess it up sometimes...
Nobody's perfect

Sometimes I work a scheme
But then it flips on me
[ Find more Lyrics at [url]www.mp3lyrics.org/gW8a[/url] ]
Dosen't turn out how I planned
Get stuck in quick sand
No problem, can be solved
Once I get involved
I try to be delicate
Then crash right into it
But my intentions are good
Sometimes just misunderstood

[Chorus]

Nobody's perfect!
I gotta work it!
I know in time, I'll find a way
Nobody's perfect!

Sometimes I fix things up
And then they fall apart again
Nobody's perfect

I gotta fix things up
But I always get it right in the end

[Talking]
Next time you think it's just one of those days
when you just can't seem to win
When things don't turn out the way you planned,
FIGURE SOMETHING ELSE OUT!
Don't be down! Try it again! YEAH!

[Singing]
Everybody makes mistakes...
Everybody has those days...
Everybody knows what, what I'm talkin' 'bout...
Everybody get's that way...
Everybody makes mistakes...
Everybody has those days...
Everybody knows what I'm talkin' 'bout...

[Chorus]

Nobody's...Perfect! No, no...Nobody's...Pefect![/font]

[SIZE="1"]mine and my girl's song.

ella fitzgerald - my funny valentine.

Behold the way our fine feathered friend,
His virtue doth parade
Thou knowest not, my dim-witted friend
The picture thou hast made
Thy vacant brow, and thy tousled hair
Conceal thy good intent
Thou noble upright truthful sincere,
And slightly dopey gent

Youre my funny valentine,
Sweet comic valentine,
You make me smile with my heart.
Your looks are laughable, un-photographable,
Yet, youre my favorite work of art.

Is your figure less than greek?
Is your mouth a little weak?
When you open it to speak, are you smart?
But, dont change a hair for me.
Not if you care for me.
Stay little valentine, stay!
Each day is valentines day

and some of this, another personal song that my better half and i enjoy.

stevie wonder - my cherie amour.

La la la la la la
La la la la la la

My Cherie Amour, lovely as a summer's day
My Cherie Amour, distant as the Milky Way
My Cherie Amour, pretty little one that I adore
You're the only girl my heart beats for
How I wish that you were mine

In a cafe or sometimes on a crowded street
I've been near you, but you never notice me
My Cherie Amour, won't you tell me how could you ignore
That behind that little smile I wore
How I wish that you were mine

Maybe someday you'll see my face among the crowd
Maybe someday I'll share your little distant cloud
Oh, Cherie Amour, pretty little one that I adore
You're the only girl my heart beats for
How I wish that you were mine

La la la la la la

[color=deeppink]I could never narrow it down to one song.

Screw the wax, I'd rather get crushed on the rocks than miss out on this song.

Despite not enjoying the Bible, I love biblical imagery. Even the verses that aren't biblical (or at least the ones I don't know are biblical) are quite striking.

No commentary of mine will do this song justice. [/color]
