lyrical overload~

[bunnny]

okay, so i've been thinking about making a thread dedicated to just lyrics, but i didn't know if anyone would like that. all i know is that it was one of my favorite threads on that other place, so i'd really like to have it here. because, i mean, come on. i'm always finding really wonderful songs with great lyrics, and i always have this urge to share them. so yes. that's what this thread is for! :D

now, get going~ oh, and try to credit the song and artist, in case people wanna check it out. (; oh, and the lyrics can be the full lyrics to the song, or just your favorite parts, or whatever. just, post some lyrics! c:

_________________________________

you were my conscience, so solid,
now you're like water,
and we started drowning -
not like we'd sink any further.
but i let my heart go;
it's somewhere down at the bottom.
but i'll get a new one
and come back for the hope that you've stolen.

i'll stop the whole world, i'll stop the whole world
from turning into a monster and eating us alive.
don't you ever wonder how we survive?
well, now that you're gone, the world is ours.

i'm only human; i've got a skeleton in me.
but i'm not the villain,
despite what you're always preaching.
call me a traitor, i'm just collecting your victims,
and they're getting stronger.
i hear them calling.
they're calling.

i'll stop the whole world, i'll stop the whole world
from turning into a monster and eating us alive.
don't you ever wonder how we survive?
well, now that you're gone, the world is ours.

well, you find your strength in solution,
but i liked the tension
and not always knowing the answers.
but you're gonna lose it, you're gonna lose it.

i'll stop the whole world, i'll stop the whole world
from turning into a monster and eating us alive.
don't you ever wonder how we survive?
well, now that you're gone, the world...

i'll stop the whole world, i'll stop the whole world
from turning into a monster and eating us alive.
don't you ever wonder how we survive?
now that you're gone, the world is ours.

These have to be my favorite song lyrics ever - this song is absolutely beautiful. Check it out, I promise you'll love it.

"Strange face, with your eyes
So pale and sincere
Underneath, you know well
You have nothing to fear
For the dreams that came to you
when you were young
Told of a life where spring has sprung

You would seem so frail
In the cold of the night
When the armies of emotion
Go out to fight
But while the earth
Sinks to its grave
You sail to the sky
On the crest of a wave

So forget this cruel world
Where I belong
Ill just sit and wait
And sing my song
And if one day
you should see me in the crowd
Lend a hand and lift me
To your place in the cloud"

Cello Song - The Books

ohmygod you did Monster I love that song so so so so much
This song pretty much the anthem to my entire life. Except the drinking part, cause, you know, I'm underage.

Bottoms up tonight I drink to you and I
'cause with the morning comes the rest of my life
And with this empty glass I will break the past
'cause with the morning I can open my eyes
I want this to be my awakening

I give this one to you an anthem full of truth
I tell you now an epic tale of what you put me through
And even though you don't deserve one of your own
A melody, a song about the life that you let go
I can't believe that I still care enough to write

Bottoms up tonight I drink to you and I
'cause with the morning comes the rest of my life
And with this empty glass I will break the past
'cause with the morning I can open my eyes
I want this to be my awakening

Yes I miss you still And probably always will
I'm living with a busted heart that I will have until
I find the strength I know its somewhere in my bones
So pull the curtain up again and get on with this show
At least you know that I care enough to write

Bottoms up tonight I drink to you and I
'cause with the morning comes the rest of my life
And with this empty glass I will break the past
'cause with the morning I can open my eyes
And maybe I will see a different destiny
Like knowing you at all was only a bad dream
I want this to be my awakening

No rest for the wicked they say
Forgive me if I try to change
No rest for the wicked they say
Forgive me if I try to change

Bottoms up tonight I drink to you and I
'cause with the morning comes the rest of my life
And with this empty glass I will break the past
'cause with the morning I can open my eyes
And maybe I will see a different destiny
Like maybe knowing you at all was only a bad dream
I want this to be my awakening

AND I SET FIIIRRREEE
TO THE RAAAIIN

And that's all I know for that song, but it's repeating in my head and I like it.

[gloria]

Today I walked down our old street
Past the diner where we'd meet
Now I dine alone in our old seats
The cold wind blows right through my bones
And I feel like I'm getting old
But I wish I was getting old with you
I held your hand when
We took shelter from the rain
She laughed as we picked out Our children's names

White sparrows fell from heaven And carried her away
Black arrows cut the strings of my heart I kneel and pray

Her clothes hang in the closet still
The phone sits on the window sill
And every time it rings, it gives me chills
My heart just stopped when I was told
Doctor, doctor, on the phone
Said my love was never coming home

I hold your casket gently walking to the grave
Dark clouds eclipse
The sun won't shine again

White sparrows fell from heaven And carried her away
Black arrows cut the strings of my heart I kneel and pray

They gave her one more day
To say the words I couldn't say
I'm crying in pain, crying in pain

And I'm not looking for answers
No, I'm not looking for answers
But dear God, why did You choose her?

White sparrows fell from heaven And carried her away
Black arrows cut the strings of my heart I kneel and pray

They gave her one more day
To say the words I couldn't say I'm crying in pain, crying in pain
Our love will remain, I'm crying in pain

-White Sparrows by Billy Talent
This song hits me in the feels

[Helen]

Right well I really like musicals so ~

Jamie is over and where can I turn?
Covered with scars I did nothing to earn,
Maybe there's somewhere a lesson to learn,
But that wouldn't change the fact,
That wouldn't speed the time,
Once the foundation's cracked,
And I'm still hurting.

- Still Hurting, Last Five Years

^ lurve that song

NEVER GUNNA GIVE YOU UP
NEVER GUNNA LET YOU DOWN
NEVER GUNNA TURN AROUND AND HURT YOU

[Rosabeth]

RICKROLL'ed! God damnit, Aly. XD

Nothin goes as planned.
Everything will break.
People say goodbye.
In their own special way.
All that you rely on
And all that you can fake
Will leave you in the morning
But find you in the day

Oh you're in my veins
And I cannot get you out
Oh you're all I taste
At night inside of my mouth
Oh you run away
Cause I am not what you found
Oh you're in my veins
And I cannot get you out.

Everything will change.
Nothin stays the same.
And nobody here's perfect.
Oh but everyones to blame
All that you rely on
And all that you can save
Will leave you in the morning
And find you in the day

Oh you're in my veins

And I cannot get you out
Oh you're all I taste
At night inside of my mouth
Oh you run away
Cause I am not what you found
Oh you're in my veins
And I cannot get you out.

No I cannot get you out.
No I cannot get you.

Everything is dark.
It's more than you can take.
But you catch a glimpse of sun light.
Shinin, down on your face.

Oh you're in my veins
And I cannot get you out
Oh you're all I taste
At night inside of my mouth
Oh you run away
Cause I am not what you found
Oh you're in my veins
And I cannot get you out

I think I've finally had enough
I think I maybe think too much
I think this might be it for us
You think I'm just too serious
I think you're full of shit

PINK. Sometimes simple lyrics just hit the nail on the head.

Thank you for the days,
Those endless days, those sacred days you gave me.
Im thinking of the days,
I wont forget a single day, believe me.

I bless the light,
I bless the light that lights on you believe me.
And though you're gone,
Youre with me every single day, believe me.

Days I'll remember all my life,
Days when you can't see wrong from right.
You took my life,
But then I knew that very soon you'd leave me,
But it's all right,
Now Im not frightened of this world, believe me.

I wish today could be tomorrow,
The night is dark,
It just brings sorrow anyway.

Thank you for the days,
Those endless days, those sacred days you gave me.
Im thinking of the days,
I wont forget a single day, believe me.

Days I'll remember all my life,
Days when you can't see wrong from right.
You took my life,
But then I knew that very soon you'd leave me,
But it's all right,
Now Im not frightened of this world, believe me.
Days.

Thank you for the days,
Those endless days, those sacred days you gave me.
Im thinking of the days,
I wont forget a single day, believe me.

I bless the light,
I bless the light that shines on you believe me.
And though you're gone,
Youre with me every single day, believe me.

I'm not the hunter,
I'm not the marked.
Just looking for wisdom in the dark.

Lions make you brave,
Giants give you faith,
Death is a charade.
You don't have to feel safe to feel unafraid.

Lions! by LIGHTS.

This ship's gone and run its course
Through a tired lack of force
And all that matters branded on your wrist
So you don't forget how we first met

Suddenly I have this feeling
Tasting copper in my mouth
I look to watch the clouds for my last breath

When you grow into you skin
I'll be the hope joining the wall
And all the scraps of world joined at the hand
Are there to hold you in our secret plan

Suddenly I have this feeling
Tasting copper in my mouth
I look to watch the clouds for comfort
Fill in the blanks

Suddenly I hate this feeling
Tasting copper in my mouth
I look to watch the clouds for comfort
I hope I don't let anyone die
Fill in the blanks

Copper Down by The Boy Who Trapped the Sun
This is my song right now, what can I say?
