MidnightBlackhorn Posted January 7, 2013 Report Share Posted January 7, 2013 Hi all!So, all you guys gotta do is post your favorite song lyrics! Copy/paste the lyrics (preferably spoil them as well) and post. The lyrics don't have to be from your favorite song, or even a song you like. The only thing you have to like is the lyrics themselves.I'll startI wonder if you'll noticeIf they lock me up and throw away the keyGotta be open mindedYou've got a lot to learn in the ways of meYou've always got to say somethingI'm none of your concern but you won't listen at allYou know I'd rather say nothingAnd just be proud of myself, I'm tearing down these wallsWhen you fallI'll be the only one who looks awayWhen you callI'll be the first to tell you I can't stayIt's all overI've found a better wayTo help keep you from meI'm better off this wayI'm better off this wayYou gotta keep this comingTell me like you know it but you don't know nothing, your callWe can settle this like gentlemenOr meet me at the back to end it all inside againMy whole life's been waitingEver since I can rememberBeen anxious awaiting your fallAnd don't let me be a long whileCan't let go of my life till I know you're doneWhen you fallI'll be the only one who looks awayWhen you callI'll be the first to tell you I can't stayIt's all overI've found a better wayTo help keep you from meI'm better off this wayI'm better off this wayYou want it, you've got itYou've always been such a waste of timeYou want it, you've got itA friend of yours is no friend of mineYou want it, you've got itWhen will you act your age?You want it, you've got itYou're the reason things have to changeYou're the reason things have to changeWhen you fallI'll be the only one who looks awayWhen you callI'll be the first to tell you I can't stayIt's all overI've found a better wayTo help keep you from meI'm better off this wayI'm better off this wayI'm better off this way Link to comment
Spaced Posted January 7, 2013 Report Share Posted January 7, 2013 [colour=#000000](Can't figure out how to do spoiler tags, sorry!) [/colour][colour=#000000]You still cross my mind from time to time. And I mostly smile. Still so set on finding out where we went wrong and whySo I retrace our every step with an unsure pen, trying to figure out what my head thinks, but my head just ain't what it used to be. And then again, what's the point anyway? I remember you ascending all the stairs up to the balcony to see if you could see me - hidden quietly away And I remember the skin of your fingers, The spot three quarters up I'd always touch when I was out of things to say.You held my hand, but you were too afraid to speak and I could never understand. I remember when you leaned in quick to kiss me, and I swear, that not a single force on earth could stop the trembling of my hand,And I remember how you smiled through the smoke in a crowded little coffeehouse and laughed at all my jokes. And I remember the way that you dressed and, how we wasted all the best of us in alcohol and sweat And I remember when I knew that you'd be leaving, how I barely kept up breathing and I bet if I had to do it all again, I'd feel the same pain, And I remember panicked circles in the terminal in tears. How I wept to god in fits. I've hated airports ever since. It must be true what people say, that only time can heal the pain. And every single day I feel it fade away, but - I still remember how the distance tricked us, and lead us helpless by the wrist into a pit to be devoured. I still remember how we held so strong to this, though we had never really settled on a way out.I still remember the silence, and how we'd always find a way to turn and run to our mistakes. I still remember how it all came back together just to fall apart again. My dear, I hear your voice in mine.I've been alone here, I've been afraid, my dear. I've been at home here. You've been away for years. I've been alone.I breathed your name into the air; I etched your name into me. I felt my anger swelling; I swam into its sea. I held your name inside my heart, but it got buried in my fear. It tore the wiring of my brain; I did my best to keep it clear. So, dear, no matter how we part, I hold you sweetly in my head.And if I do not miss a part of you, a part of me is dead. If I can't love you as a lover, I will love you as a friend. And I will lay a bed before you; keep you safe until the end.[/colour][colour=#000000]La Dispute - Andria [/colour] Link to comment

Volt Posted January 7, 2013 Report Share Posted January 7, 2013 Y un día después de la tormenta,(And the next day, after the storm,)Cuándo menos piensas sale el sol,(When you least expect it, the sun rises)De tanto sumar pierdes la cuenta,(From adding so much you lose count of things)Porque uno y uno no siempre son dos,(Because one plus one does not always equals two,)Cuándo menos piensas sale el sol.(When you least expect it, the sun rises.)Translated manually, might be just a tad bit inaccurate. 1 Link to comment
LightningChaser Posted January 8, 2013 Report Share Posted January 8, 2013 Life is (too short) So love the one you got Because you might get run over or you might get shot Never start no static I just get it off my (chest) Never had to battle with no bulletproof (vest) Take a small example, take a tip from me Take all of your money and give it up to charity Lovin's what I got, it's within my reach (And the Sublime style is still straight from Long Beach) It all comes back to you You're bound to get what you deserve Try and test that You're bound to get served Love's what I got Don't start a riot You feel it when the dance gets hotLovin', is what I got, I said remember that Lovin', is what I got, and remember that Lovin', is what I got, I said remember that Lovin', is what I got, I got, I gotWhy I don't cry when my dog runs away I don't get angry at the bills I have to pay I don't get angry when my mum smokes pot Hits that bottle and goes right to the rock **** it, fight it, it's all the same Livin' with Louie dog's the only way to stay sane Let the lovin' Let the lovin' come back to me Link to comment

weesh Posted January 21, 2013 Report Share Posted January 21, 2013 There are some wonderful songs for which every word is excellent, but I shall only post snippets for my submissions:Bittersweet Symphony - The Verve (because I get stuck in a rut)No change, I can't change, I can't change, I can't change,But I'm here in my mold, I am here in my mold.But I'm a million different people from one day to the next...I can't change my mold, no, no, no, no, no, no, noHit That - The Offspring (because they run counter to society's "whatever feels right" attitude)He's sayingI'm on a rollWith all the girls I knowI know you wanna hit thatI know you wanna hit that, hit thatAll the world is gettin' with, I sayConsequences are a lot, but heyThat's the way itThat's the way things goHey, hey, heyOverkill - Colin Hay (because I worry too much)I can't get to sleepI think about the implicationsOf diving in too deepAnd possibly the complicationsEspecially at nightI worry over situationsI know will be alrightIt's just overkillI think I could post 100 of these without much of a stretch.Can I request that people bold the lyrics that are most meaningful to them? It is a bit overwhelming to read an entire song. Link to comment
