[dezdimona]

Lay beside me, tell me what they've done

Speak the words I want to hear, to make my demons run

The door is locked now, but it's open if you're true

If you can understand the me, than I can understand the you.

 

Lay beside me, under wicked sky

Through black of day, dark of night, we share this pair of lives

The door cracks open, but there's no sun shining through

Black heart scarring darker still, but there's no sun shining through

No, there's no sun shining through

No, there's no sun shining

 

What I've felt, what I've known

Turn the pages, turn the stone

Behind the door, should I open it for you?

 

What I've felt, what I've known

Sick and tired, I stand alone

Could you be there?, 'cause I'm the one who waits for you

Or are you unforgiven too?

 

Come lay beside me, this won't hurt I swear

She loves me not, she loves me still, but she'll never love again

She lay beside me, but she'll be there when I'm gone

Black heart scarring darker still, yes she'll be there when I'm gone

Yes, she'll be there when I'm gone

Dead sure she'll be there!

 

What I've felt, what I've known

Turn the pages, turn the stone

Behind the door, should I open it for you?

 

What I've felt, what I've known

Sick and tired, I stand alone

Could you be there?, 'cause I'm the one who waits for you

Or are you unforgiven too?

 

(Solo)

 

Lay beside me, tell me what I've done

The door is closed, so are your eyes

But now I see the sun, now I see the sun

Yes now I see it!

 

What I've felt, what I've known

Turn the pages, turn the stone

Behind the door, should I open it for you?

 

What I've felt, what I've known

So sick and tired, I stand alone

Could you be there?, 'cause I'm the one who waits,

The one who waits for you

 

Oh what I've felt, what I've known

Turn the pages, turn the stone

Behind the door, should I open it for you?

(So I dub thee unforgiven)

 

Oh, what I've felt

Oh, what I've known!

 

I take this key (never free)

And I bury it (never me) in you

Because you're unforgiven too

 

Never free

Never me

'Cause you're unforgiven too!

 

Metallica.............not knowing is the worst feeling .

[Birrii]

Another head hangs lowly, child is slowly taken

And the violence caused such silence

Who are we mistaken

 

But you see it's not me, it's not my family

In your head, in your head, they are fighting

With their tanks, and their bombs

And their bombs, and their guns

In your head, in your head they are cryin'

In your head, in your head, Zombie, Zombie

In your head, what's in your head Zombie

 

Another mother's breaking heart is taking over

When the violence causes silence

We must be mistaken

It's the same old theme since 1916

In your head, in your head they're still fightin'

With their tanks, and their bombs

And their bombs, and their guns

In your head, in your head they are dyin'

 

In your head, in your head, Zombie, Zombie

In your head, what's in your head Zombie

 

 

The cranberries: Zombie

Tool - Schism

 

I know the pieces fit cuz I watched them fall away

Mildewed and smoldering, fundamental differing,

Pure intention juxtaposed will set two lovers souls in motion

Disintegrating as it goes testing our communication

The light that fueled our fire then has burned a hole between us so

We cannot see to reach an end crippling our communication.

 

I know the pieces fit cuz I watched them tumble down

No fault, none to blame it doesnt mean I dont desire to

Point the finger, blame the other, watch the temple topple over.

To bring the pieces back together, rediscover communication.

 

The poetry that comes from the squaring off between,

And the circling is worth it.

Finding beauty in the dissonance.

 

There was a time that the pieces fit, but I watched them fall away.

Mildewed and smoldering, strangled by our coveting

Ive done the the math enough to know the dangers of a second guessing

Doomed to crumble unless we grow, and strengthen our communication

 

Cold silence has a tendency to atrophy any sense of compassion

 

Between supposed lovers

Between supposed lovers.

 

And I know the pieces fit.

 

 

Tool - The Pot

 

Who are you to wave your finger?

Ya' must have been out your head.

Eye hole deep in muddy waters.

You practically raised the dead.

 

Rob the grave, to snow the cradle.

Then burn the evidence down.

Soapbox, house of cards, and glass,

So don't go tossin' your stones around.

 

You must have been high.

You must have been high.

You must have been.

 

Foot in mouth, and head up ass****.

Whatcha talkin' 'bout?

Difficult to dance 'round this one

'til you pull it out, boy!

 

You must have been, so high.

You must have been, so high.

 

Steal, borrow, refer, save your shady inference.

kangaroo done hung the juror with the innocent.

 

Now you're weeping shades of cozened indigo

Got lemon juice up in your...EYE!

 

When you pissed all over my black kettle

You must have been HIGH, HIGH

You must have been HIGH, HIGH

 

Who are you to wave your finger?

So full of it.

Eyeballs deep in muddy waters

F****n' hypocrite.

 

Liar, lawyer, mirror, show me.

What's the difference?

 

kangaroo done hung the guilty with the innocent.

 

NOW!!

You'll weep or, change the cozened indigo.

Got lemon juice up in your high eye.

When you pissed all over my black kettle

You musta been!

 

So who are you to wave your finger?

Who are you to wave your fatty fingers at me?

You must, have been, out your, mind!

 

Weepin' shades of indigo

Shed without a reason

Weepin' shades of indigo

 

Liar, lawyer,

Mirror for ya,

What's the difference?

kangaroo be stoned

He's guilty as the government

 

NOW!!

Will you weep or, change the cozened indigo

Got lemon juice up in your, EYE!!

EYE!!

 

Now when you pissed all over my black kettle.

You musta been HIGH, HIGH, HIGH, HIGH.

Eyeballs deep in muddy waters

Your balls deep in muddy waters.

Ganja, please, you must have been out your MIND!!!!

 

["Kangaroo" refers to "kangaroo courts", which were mock courts established to prove people guilty without a fair trial or any real evidence - most of the court cases dealt with marijuana users]

Lamb of God - Descending.

The river I'm bound to be found in,

A rope chosen bound for the hang.

When I'm blind and I think I see everything,

Convincing myself again.

 

This God that I worship (a faded reflection).

This demon I blame (a flickering flame).

Conspire as one, exactly the same.

It's exactly the same.

 

Descending,

To never recover the pieces to all that we've lost.

Recover the pieces lost.

The pieces to all we've lost.

 

I shudder to think of the consequence,

It's blasphemy simple and true.

The tragic protagonist torments,

Convincing myself again.

 

This God that I worship (a faded reflection).

This demon I blame (a flickering flame).

Conspire as one, exactly the same.

It's exactly the same.

 

Descending,

To never recover the pieces to all that we've lost.

Descending,

To never recover the pieces to all that we've lost.

Recover the pieces lost.

The pieces to all we've lost.

 

This God that I worship

This demon I blame

Conspire as one, exactly the same

It's exactly the same

It's exactly the same

It's exactly the same

 

Lamb of God - Omerta

Whoever appeals to the law against his fellow man is either a fool or a coward.

Whoever cannot take care of themselves without that law is both.

For a wounded man shall say to his assailant,

'If I live, I will kill you. If I die, You are forgiven.'

Such is the rule of honour.

 

Broken the paradigm an example must be set

Invoke the Siren's song and sign the death warrant.

This is what has been wrought for 30 pieces of silver

The tongues of men and angels bought by a beloved betrayer.

I am the result what's better left unspoken

Violence begins to mend what was broken

You've been talking, I've been all ears.

Words meant to dwell in darkness shall never see the light of day

Words can be broken, so can bones

Execute the mandate

Mouth full of dirt.

Your name is removed from the registry

St. Peter greets with empty eyes then turns and locks the gate.

I am the result what's better left unspoken

Violence begins to mend what was broken

You've been talking, I've been all ears

Omerta.

Cheaply venal, stupidly verbose

A slip of the tongue, a slit of the throat

Six feet under with no marker

Keep my name from your mouth forever.

Free speech for the living, dead men tell no tales

Your laughing finger will never point again.

Omerta.

Sing for me now.

 

If anyone catches some profanity in those, let me know or let a mod know to edit it. I just copied and pasted those from my lyrics file on my MP3 player.

I semi recently found out about this band All That Remains. I heard a new song from them on the radio a few days ago. Here's my favorite song also one of their older songs and that song I heard on the radio.

 

All That Remains

Whispers (I hear you)

Fall of Ideals

 

It may seem at last, days passing mean nothing

But the sun that sets cause only pain

Violence in words, like slashes, wound deeply

Love is not when you feel only pain

 

Her touch

Poison

Flows through my veins

No more

I denounce all your childish games

 

Whispers

I hear your

Poison

Flows in me

Lost inside you

I’m not free of you

Break my bonds again

 

Love lost

Arrogant angel

Paint strife on this canvas

Failure

I am a fool

I should have seen

 

Whispers

I hear you're voices

Flows in me

Lost inside you, i'm not free of you

Break my bonds again (break my bonds again)

Love lost

Failure x2

 

I should have seen

I should have seen

 

Whispers

I hear your

Poison

Flows in me

Lost inside you

I’m not free of you

Break my bonds again

 

No more

Lies

No more

Lies

 

 

No more

Lies

No more

No more lies

 

 

It may seem at last, days passing mean nothing

But the suns that set cause only pain

Violence in words, like slashes, wound deeply

Love is not when you feel only pain

 

No more regrets

Face my fear alone

You made me whole

This I believe

Break these bonds again

 

Whispers

I hear your

Poison

Flows in me

Lost inside you

I’m not free of you

Break my bonds again

 

Lost inside you

I’m not free of you

Break my bonds again

All That Remains

Two weeks

Overcome

 

and you neglected I called you out don't please

I said we're stronger than this now

you resurrected mistakes years past it seemed

and they exist to still haunt you

 

and still you feel like the loneliness

is better replaced by this

I don't believe it this way

and I can see the fear in your eyes

I've seen it materialize

Growing stronger each day

 

I could see it as you turned to stone

Still clearly I can hear you say

don't leave, don't give up on me

two weeks and you ran away

I remember don't lie to me

you couldn't see that it was not that way

swear I never gave up on you

 

I wanted nothing but for that trust again

and brick by brick you would take it

You feared of phantoms and none exist but you

you still saw fit to destroy it

 

and still you feel like the loneliness

is better replaced by this

I don't believe it this way

and I can see the fear in your eyes

I've seen it materialize

growing stronger each day

 

I could see it as you turned to stone

still clearly I can hear you say

don't leave don't give up on me

two weeks and you ran away

I remember don't lie to me

you couldn't see that it was not that way

swear I never gave up on you

 

and you neglected I called you out don't please

I said we're stronger than this now

You feared of phantoms and none exist but you

you still saw fit to destroy it

 

and I can see the fear in your eyes

I've seen it materialize

growing stronger each day

 

I could see it as you turned to stone

still clearly I can hear you say

don't leave don't give up on me

two weeks you ran away

 

I could see it as you turned to stone

still clearly I can hear you say

don't leave don't give up on me

two weeks and you ran away

I remember don't lie to me

you couldn't see that it was not that way

swear I never gave up on you

VNV Nation,

Further

 

At the end of days, at the end of time

When the Sun burns out will any of this matter?

Who will be there to remember who we were?

Who will be there to know that any of this had meaning for us?

 

And in retrospect I'll say we've done no wrong

Who are we to judge what's right and what has purpose for us?

With designs upon ourselves to do no wrong

Running wild unaware of what might come of us

 

The Sun was born, so it shall die

So only shadows comfort me

I know in darkness I will find you giving up inside like me

Each day shall end as it begins

And though you're far away from me

I know in darkness I will find you giving up inside like me

 

The Sun was born, so it shall die

So only shadows comfort me

I know in darkness I will find you giving up inside like me

Each day shall end as it begins

And though you're far away from me

I know in darkness I will find you giving up inside like me

 

Without a thought I will see everything eternal

Forget that once we were just dust from heavens far

As we were forged we shall return, perhaps some day

I will remember us and wonder who we were

 

The Sun was born, so it shall die

So only shadows comfort me

I know in darkness I will find you giving up inside like me

Each day shall end as it begins

And though you're far away from me

I know in darkness I will find you giving up inside like me

 

The Sun was born, so it shall die

So only shadows comfort me

I know in darkness I will find you giving up inside like me

Each day shall end as it begins

And though you're far away from me

I know in darkness I will find you giving up inside like me

Clutch,

The Mob Goes Wild

 

Please allow me to adjust my pants

So that I may dance the good time dance

And put the onlookers and innocent bystanders into a trance

 

Give disease so the swine who marry and propagate lies.

Tough luck for elected officials. The beast you see got fifty eyes.

Bring it on home, spread the wealth. Play it cool, the hand's been dealt.

Now, all the odds are in our favor. Save the victory speeches for later.

 

Streets on fire, the mob goes wild,wild,wild.

Streets on fire, the mob goes wild.

 

21 guns, box made of pine, letter from the government sealed and signed

Delivered Federal Express on your mother's doorstep.

21 guns, box made of pine, letter from the government sealed and signed

Delivered Federal Express on your mother's doorstep.

 

Condoleeza Rice is nice, but I prefer A-Roni.

And that man on the T.V. who speaks to the dead, you know that man's a phony.

Everybody move to Canada and smoke lots of pot.

Everybody move to Canada right now. Here's how we do it:

Bum rush the border guard before he and his dog ever knew it.

 

Streets on fire, the mob goes wild,wild,wild.

Streets on fire, the mob goes wild.

 

21 guns, box made of pine, letter from the government sealed and signed

Well alright.

Dresden Dolls

Girl Anachronism

 

you can tell

from the scars on my arms

and cracks in my hips

and the dents in my car

and the blisters on my lips

that I'm not the carefullest of girls

 

you can tell

from the glass on the floor

and the strings that're breaking

and i keep on breaking more

and it looks like i am shaking

but it's just the temperature

and then again

if it were any colder i could disengage

if i were any older i could act my age

but i don't think that you'd believe me

it's

not

the

way

I'm

meant

to

be

it's just the way the operation made me

 

and you can tell

from the state of my room

that they let me out too soon

and the pills that i ate

came a couple years too late

and I've got some issues to work through

there i go again

pretending to be you

make-believing

that i have a soul beneath the surface

trying to convince you

it was accidentally on purpose

 

i am not so serious

this passion is a plagiarism

i might join your century

but only on a rare occasion

i was taken out

before the labor pains set in and now

behold the world's worst accident

i am the girl anachronism

 

and you can tell

by the red in my eyes

and the bruises on my thighs

and the knots in my hair

and the bathtub full of flies

that I'm not right now at all

there i go again

pretending that I'll fall

don't call the doctors

cause they've seen it all before

they'll say just

let

her

crash

and

burn

she'll learn

the attention just encourages her

 

and you can tell

from the full-body cast

that I'm sorry that i asked

though you did everything you could

(like any decent person would)

but i might be catching so don't touch

you'll start believing you're immune to gravity and stuff

don't get me wet

because the bandages will all come off

 

and you can tell

from the smoke at the stake

that the current state is critical

well it is the little things, for instance

in the time it takes to break it she can make up ten excuses

please excuse her for the day, its just the way the medication makes her

 

i don't necessarily believe there is a cure for this

so i might join your century but only as a doubtful guest

i was too precarious removed as a caesarian

behold the worlds worst accident

i am the girl anachronism

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

And for the heck of it, here's a friend of mine's indie band probably not your taste friends, but I like it! (too bad they drink like sailors) -ENJOY-

 

[AlmostWhatIWant]

Thought I might post one of my own if that's all right.

 

Almost What I Want - Sleeper Of The Seven Dreams

 

I've come so far taking all these steps back

Gotten further from where I started

Then when I was going ahead

Is this the sting of failure

Did I pass away last night in bed

All I know is the clock has stopped dead

And I'm running out of excuses

But your compliments fit my uses

So as long as it's convenient...

 

You're the reason I made it this far

The reason I'm not already dead

Kept my dreams from dying

From losing my head

The strength is in my soul but

I'm so tired of playing this part

So if it's all the same to you

I'd like to lie alone here in the dark

 

I know my usual pessimistic procrastination just wont do

There's just no hope for me, if I were to lose you too

Pour me into a mold so I can be someone else instead

I don't mind being your puppet, model, court jester

It's what could go wrong that I'm starting to dread

I know I've slept through the storms

But it's my only form of shelter

I know I'm letting you down in the end

But I'm just trying to get to sleep safely

I'm left with choices of moving on or

Staying scared under the covers with you

I'll be surprised if I don't end up ripping myself in two

 

You're the reason I made it this far

The reason I'm not already dead

Kept my dreams from dying

From losing my head

The strength is in my soul but

I'm so tired of playing this part

So if it's all the same to you

I'd like to lie alone here in the dark

Pretend I left my mark

 

 

Act like I'm not acting

Act like this smile isn't just faking...

 

You're the reason I made it this far

The reason I'm not already dead

Kept my dreams from dying

From losing my head

The strength is in my soul but

I'm so tired of playing this part

So if it's all the same to you

I'd like to lie alone here in the dark

(All the same to you)

 

So if it's all the same

(Lie here in the dark)

I'd like to just lie here

(Tired in my heart)

Act like I've no fear

(Though my souls got the strength)

If this is all that you have

Then no more shall I take

(All the same to you)

If it's all the same, same to you

I'd like to go now

Lay in the dark
