Motherless children
Wandering nowhere
Feels like there's miles to go
Reaching for water
Longing to go there
Flooding into your soul

Also: Octavarium, by Dream Theater.

Spoiler for Warning: Very long, and copied from a lyrics site. I bear no responsibility for mistakes or anything else in it.:

[I. Someone Like Him]
I never wanted to become someone like him so secure
Content to live each day sust like the last
I was sure I knew that
This was not for me
And I wanted so much more
Far beyond what I could see
So I swore that I'd
Never be someone like him

So many years have passed
Since I proclaimed
My independence
My mission
My aim
And my vision
So secure
Content to live each day like it's my last
It's wonderful to know
That I could be
Something more than what I dreamed
Far beyond what I could see
Still I swear that I'm
Missing out this time

[Octavarium Lyrics on http://www.lyricsmania.com]
As far as I could tell
Theres nothing more I need
But still I ask myself
Could this be everything
Then all I swore
That I would never be was now
So suddenly
The only thing I wanted
To become
To be someone just like him

[II. Medicate (Awakening)]
A doctor sitting next to me
He asked me how I feel
Not sure I understand his questioning
He says I've been away a while
But thinks he has cured me
>From a state of catatonic sleep

For 30 years
Where have I been
Eyes open
But not getting through to me

Medicate me
Infiltrate me
Side effects appear
As my conscience slips away

Medicate me
Science failing
Conscience fading fast
Can't you stop what's happening

A higher dosage he prescribes
But there's no guarantee
I feel it starting to take over me

I tell him not to be ashamed
There's no one who's to blame
A second shot
A brief awakening

I feel the relapse
Can't break free
Eyes open
But not getting through to me

[III. Full Circle]
Sailing on the seven seize the day tripper Diem's ready
Jack the Ripper Owen Wilson Phillips and my Supper's ready
Lucy in the Sky with diamond Dave's not here I come to save the Day for
Nightmare Cinema show me the way to get back home
Again

Running forward
Falling back
Spinning round and round
Scream without a sound
Stumbling all around
Find I've come full circle

Leaning over
Crawling up
Stumbilng all around
Losing my place
Only to find I've come full circle

Flying Off the Hand With careful with
That axe Eugene Gene the dance machine messiah
Light my Fire gabba, gabba
Hey hey my my Generations home again

Running forward
Falling back
Spinning round and round
Scream without a sound
Stumbling all around
Find I've come full circle

Leaning over
Crawling up
Stumbilng all around
Losing my place
Only to find I've come full circle

[IV. Intervals]
First:
Our deadly sins feel his mortal wrath
Remove all obstacles from our path
Second:
Asking questions
Search for clues
The answer's been right in front of you

Third:
Try to break through
Long to connect
fall on deaf ears and failed muted breath
Fourth:
Loyalty, trust, faith in desire
Carries love through each darkest fire

Fifth:
Tortured insanity
A smothering hell
Try to escape but to no avail
Sixth:
The calls of admirers
Who claim they adore
Drain all your lifeblood while begging for more

Seventh:
Innocent victims for merciless crimes
Fall prey to some madmen's impulsive designs
Eighth:
Step after step
We try controlling our fate
When we finally start living it has become too late

Trapped inside this Octavarium
Trapped inside this Octavarium
Trapped inside this Octavarium
Trapped inside this Octavarium

[V. Razor's Edge]
We move in circles
Balanced all the while
On a gleaming razor's edge

A perfect sphere
Colliding with our fate
This story ends where it began

I like lyrics with subtleties and meaning so anything by Bob Dylan. Mass produced crap pisses me off.

In my opinion the best song ever written was "Whiter Shade of Pale," by Procol Harum: Because you have to be smart and cultured to understand what the lyrics mean.

We skipped the light fandango
turned cartwheels 'cross the floor
I was feeling kinda seasick
but the crowd called out for more
The room was humming harder
as the ceiling flew away
When we called out for another drink
the waiter brought a tray

And so it was that later
as the miller told his tale
that her face, at first just ghostly,
turned a whiter shade of pale

She said, 'I'm home on shore leave,'
though in truth we were at sea
so I took her by the looking glass
and forced her to agree
saying, 'You must be the mermaid
who took Neptune for a ride.'
But she smiled at me so sadly
that my anger straightway died

And so it was that later
as the miller told his tale
that her face, at first just ghostly,
turned a whiter shade of pale

She said, 'There is no reason
and the truth is plain to see.'
But I wandered through my playing cards
and would not let her be
one of sixteen vestal virgins
who were leaving for the coast
and although my eyes were open
they might have just as well've been closed

And so it was that later
as the miller told his tale
that her face, at first just ghostly,
turned a whiter shade of pale

If music be the food of love
then laughter is its queen
and likewise if behind is in front
then dirt in truth is clean
My mouth by then like cardboard
seemed to slip straight through my head
So we crash-dived straightway quickly
and attacked the ocean bed

And so it was that later
as the miller told his tale
that her face, at first just ghostly,
turned a whiter shade of pale

The song stuck in my head right now is Umbrella by Rihanna.

Spoiler for Long lyrics from a site:

[Intro: Jay-Z]
Ahuh Ahuh (Yea Rihanna)
Ahuh Ahuh (Good girl gone bad)
Ahuh Ahuh (Take three... Action)
Ahuh Ahuh

No clouds in my storms
Let it rain, I hydroplane in the bank
Coming down with the Dow Jones
When the clouds come we gone, we Rocafella
She fly higher than weather
And G5’s are better, You know me,
an anticipation, for precipitation. Stacked chips for the rainy day
Jay, Rain Man is back with little Ms. Sunshine
Rihanna where you at?

[Rihanna]
You have my heart
And we'll never be worlds apart
May be in magazines
But you'll still be my star
Baby cause in the dark
You can't see shiny cars
And that's when you need me there
With you I'll always share
Because

[Chorus]
When the sun shines, we’ll shine together
Told you I'll be here forever
Said I'll always be a friend
Took an oath I'ma stick it out till the end
Now that it's raining more than ever
Know that we'll still have each other
You can stand under my umbrella
You can stand under my umbrella
(Ella ella eh eh eh)
Under my umbrella
(Ella ella eh eh eh)
Under my umbrella
(Ella ella eh eh eh)
Under my umbrella
(Ella ella eh eh eh eh eh eh)

These fancy things, will never come in between
You're part of my entity, here for Infinity
When the war has took it's part
When the world has dealt it's cards
If the hand is hard, together we'll mend your heart
[ Umbrella lyrics found on http://www.completealbumlyrics.com ]
Because

[Chorus]
When the sun shines, we’ll shine together
Told you I'll be here forever
Said I'll always be a friend
Took an oath I'ma stick it out till the end
Now that it's raining more than ever
Know that we'll still have each other
You can stand under my umbrella
You can stand under my umbrella
(Ella ella eh eh eh)
Under my umbrella
(Ella ella eh eh eh)
Under my umbrella
(Ella ella eh eh eh)
Under my umbrella
(Ella ella eh eh eh eh eh eh)

You can run into my arms
It's okay don't be alarmed
Come into me
There's no distance in between our love
So go on and let the rain pour
I'll be all you need and more
Because

[Chorus]
When the sun shines, we’ll shine together
Told you I'll be here forever
Said I'll always be a friend
Took an oath I'ma stick it out till the end
Now that it's raining more than ever
Know that we'll still have each other
You can stand under my umbrella
You can stand under my umbrella
(Ella ella eh eh eh)
Under my umbrella
(Ella ella eh eh eh)
Under my umbrella
(Ella ella eh eh eh)
Under my umbrella
(Ella ella eh eh eh eh eh eh)

It's raining
Ooh baby it's raining
Baby come into me
Come into me
It's raining
Oh baby it's raining

I MOTHER EARTH:D
"So Gently We Go"

Spoiler for Full Lyrics:

Fill my head with
Your nonsense
You can breathe my breath
Till I turn red
Close your eyes
Try to follow me
If you close your eyes
You can become me
You can park your shoes
On my front step
Then gently walk barefoot
Through my sunken chest
I'll shade my eyes from
The burning sun
But feel confident
'Cause we're as bold
As love... and laughter

Wake me up when
The day is late
so I can watch the sunset
and go back to bed
And dream so real
A fantastic stage
Psychodramatic means to
Uncertain ends
I'll scare you blind with
My confidence
As cool as Jesus
And his twelve best friends
The reason we can
Do these things is that
The Earth has told
Of an outrageous spring...
Remembered

We'll meet for breakfast
In the sun room
The feeling in my soul
As sweet as good perfume
Leave your sex
At the door... come in
There's ecstasy for all
No need to leave your name
Pirouettes
We will make in game
On the ceiling
Movies of our lives will play
The reason we can
Do these thngs is that
Our minds are clouded
And we can't see
Straight

Maybe I've playedv My part
But it's a players
Art
Me and my friends
We were just living... playing
I've heard the sound
That silence makes
And I realize the world
Can break
From the inside out
Or outside in
On a breath of wind

Nightwish lyrics, most of them made by Tuomas Holopainen, from the band itself

here go two of them:

Quote:

---

Ghost Love Score
Nightwish
Tuomas Holopainen

We used to swim
The same moonlight waters
Oceans away
From the wakeful day

My fall will be for you
(My fall will be for you
My love will be in you
If you be the one to cut me
I will bleed forever)

Scent of the sea
Before the waking of the world
Brings me to thee
Into the blue memory

My fall will be for you
(My fall will be for you
My love will be in you
If you be the one to cut me
I will bleed forever)

Into the blue memory

A Siren from the deep
Came to me, sang my name, my longing
Still I write my songs
About that dream of mine
Worth everything I may ever be

The child will be born again
That siren carried him to me
First of them true loves
Singing on the shoulders
Of an angel without care for love and loss

Bring me home or leave me be
My love in the dark heart of the night
I have lost the path before me
The one behind will lead me
x2

Take me, cure me, kill me, bring me home
Every way, every day
Just another loop in the hangman's noose

Take me, cure me, kill me, bring me home
Every way, every day
I keep on watching us sleep

Relive the old sin of Adam end Eve
Of you and me
Forgive the adoring beast


Redeem me into childhood
Show me myself without the shell
Like the advent of May
I'll be there when you say
Time to never hold our love

My fall will be for you
(My fall will be for you
My love will be in you
You was the one that cut me
So I'll bleed forever)

My fall will be for you...

Ever Dream
Nightwish
Tuomas Holopainen

Ever felt away with me
Just once that all I need
Entwined in finding you one day

Ever felt away without me
My love, it lies so deep
Ever dream of me


Would you do it with me
Heal the scars and change the stars
Would you do it for me
Turn loose the heaven within

I'd take you away
Castaway on a lonely day
Bosom for a teary cheek
My song can but borrow your grace

Chorus:
Ever felt away with me
Just once that all I need
Entwined in finding you one day

Ever felt away without me
My love, it lies so deep
Ever dream of me


Come out, come out wherever you are
So lost in your sea
Give in, give in for my touch
For my taste for my lust

Chorus:
Ever felt away with me
Just once that all I need
Entwined in finding you one day

Ever felt away without me
My love, it lies so deep
Ever dream of me

Your beauty cascaded it on me
In this white night fantasy

Chorus 3x:

Those are great songs by Nightwish :D

coming to think about Nightwish one of my favourites lyrics came from "Gethsemane"

Quote:

---

"I knew you never before
I see you never more
But the love the pain the hope O beautiful one
Have made you mine 'till all my years are done"

Without you
The poetry within me is dead "

thought I would share :)

Though one song that comes to mind that I've always enjoyed the lyrics too would be "To Die For" by The Birthday massacre.

Quote:

---

This is forever but it won’t last long

---

To see the whole song I got it under the spolier.

Spoiler for To Die for lyrics by the Birthday Massacre:

Tighten your tie boy
You’re something to die for
But don’t hold your breath now
You’re just killing time
Tonight you can dream boy
Imagine a whisper
If you can keep secrets
Then I’ll tell you mine.

Remember a promise you couldn’t hold on to
Though it brings me to tears now i need you to know
Look in my eyes boy
Nothing like yours now
It seems that a lifetime
Is passing us by.

So open your eyes...

This is forever but it won’t last long
This is a memory that fades away in neverending
In the death of all that’s long been said and done before,
We’ll wish that we were something more.

Stop wasting time boy
You’re late all your life boy
They won’t have the patience
For someone like you
Your memory’s fading
I’ll love you forever
I’ll try to remember
I’ll try to hold on

You’re standing alone boy
Waiting for dreams boy
Waiting for something
To make them come true
Don’t ever leave boy
I’d miss you too much boy
I’ll never forget you
As long as I’m here

oh yea, nightwish rulz! suomi finland perkele

meh i dunno, i know its cheesy but i like mad world everyone knows its lyrics though

OH BTW this part of nightwish lyrics always gives me the chillls.

Nightwish - Dead to the world (p.s. i been a fan since they were founded)

It's not the monsters under your bed
It is the Man next door
That makes you fear, makes you cry,
Makes you cry for the child

oh yeah, Gethsemane and Dead to the World rule :D

But the best lyrics are in "Moondance"

lol just so that you don't waste your time, there are no lyrics xDDDDDDDDDD


btw check out NW's version of POTO... the lyrics were alread great, but gothic metal fits them better^^

For a second there you made me reconsider the whole song.. "wait.. i don't remember lyrics to moondance.":p

Anyway, I know their version is great! is it bad for me to say I like it over the original? Oh, and have you heard "Eva" with the knew singer Anette? She's not bad. I'm actually excited to hear how she sounds on the rest of the upcoming album.

she's not bad, but I don't particularly like "Eva"


hope she sings as well as or maybe better (is that possible) than tarja

waiting for "the poet and the pendulum"... sources say it's great

My favorite lyrics?

It changes all the time...

In this particular period of time (let's say a few weeks ago 'till now) I have this one song in my head all the time...

It's part Dutch and part another language (my best guess is Portugese... but I'm not really sure yet... care to confirm anyone?)

It's called "Naar het Zuiden" ("To the South"), sung by Fernando Lameirinhas and Paul de Leeuw (famous dutch comedian, singer and tv show host (and a cool guy too!)... but is probably more known overseas as "that guy that gave the results in the Eurovision Song Contest"... He is openly gay, which caused some (undeserved) commotion in the 2006 votes (which I, personally, don't understand... It was funny as hell... just look it up on youtube))

Here's the song (It is VERY low quality on there... So if you want the song in its full glory, PM me and I'll send it to you...) The bass is great... just not in the video... Really, if you REALLY want to enjoy this song... Try the real deal, and PM me... trust me on this one...

And here are the Lyrics:

Spoiler for Lyrics of 'Naar het Zuiden':

La no sul
Debaixo dum ceu e um mar azul
Tem um lindo sol e areia
E a noite, tem o luar

Naar het zuiden
De verao
Vogels trekken naar het zuiden
En ik doe een dikke trui aan
Voor de kou die nog moet komen
Wie verlost me
Van dat eeuwige verlangen
Van een hart dat zich wil warmen
Aan een zon
Die steeds blijft schijnen
La no sul
Um mar azul

In het zuiden
La no sul
Lijkt het leven zoveel lichter
Debaixo dum ceu e um mar azul
Wij kwamen ieder jaar weer dichter
De verao
Tot elkaar
Coracao
In het zuiden

La na sombra
De um verao de euforia
Do riso que nos da alegria
E um pouco faz esquecer

Naar het zuiden
De verao
Nu de liefde zo bekoeld blijkt
La no sul
Dat ze niet meer tot de stoel reikt
Waar ik doodstil
Op blijft zitten
Ik moet opstaan
En je naar de auto sleuren
Hier niet doelloos zitten treuren
Maar plankgas
Naar het zuiden rijden
La no sul, um mar azul

In het zuiden
E a sombra
Gaat ons bloed weer sneller stromen
De um verao, da nostalgia
Leren wij weer weg te dromen
Dessa alegria
Kunnen wij weer dagen vrijen
De verao, la no sul

In het zuiden
Vem ao sol
Is geen agenda die ons hindert
La no sul so mais um dia
Brandt de liefde onverminderd
Nessa alegria, de verao
Ga met mij
La no sul, la no sul
O mar e mais azul, de verao
Naar het zuiden
La no sul, um mar azul

I don't have the translation yet... And since I don't know portugese (yet???), I won't post it (yet?????)...

Yes it is portuguese.

Gonna translate the portuguese parts below (I don't know dutch yet, maybe one day...):

Btw it's Portugal portuguese. "Dum" (of a) is considered old-fashioned and silly here in brazil :>

And the accent in the song is also portuguese.

I don't know Dutch very well, and that's the best I can do. :lol: It would be great if someone could correct it for me.

Anything by Pink Floyd.

More noticeably, the climax of the album, the Wall, in the song called...

Spoiler for The Trial:

Good morning, the worm, your honour,
The crown will plainly show,
The prisoner who now stands before you,
Was caught red-handed showing feelings.
Showing feelings of an almost human nature.
This will not do.

Call the schoolmaster!

I always said hed come to no good,
In the end, your honour.
If theyd let me have my way,
I could have flayed him into shape.
But my hands were tied.
The bleeding hearts and artists,
Let him get away with murder.
Let me hammer him today.

Crazy.
Toys in the attic, I am crazy.
Truly gone fishing.
They must have taken my marbles away.
(crazy. toys in the attic, he is crazy.)

You little shit, youre in it now.
I hope they throw away the key.
You shouldve talked to me more often than you did.
But no! you had to go your own way.
Have you broken any homes up lately?
Just five minutes, worm, your honour,
Him and me alone.

Baaaaaabe!
Come to mother, baby.
Let me hold you in my arms.
Mlord, I never meant for him to get in any trouble.
Whyd he ever have to leave me?
Worm, your honour, let me take him home.

Crazy.
Over the rainbow, I am crazy.
Bars in the window.
There must have been a door there in the wall.
For when I came in. . .
(crazy. over the rainbow, he is crazy.)

The evidence before the court is incontravertible.
Theres no need for the jury to retire.
In all my years of judging I have never heard before,
Of someone more deserving of the full penalty of the law.
The way you made them suffer,
Your exquisite wife and mother,
Fills me with the urge to deficate! -- no, judge, the jury!
Since, my friend, you have revealed your deepest fear,
I sentence you to be exposed before your peers.
Tear down the wall!

This is only part of the song, but this is the part that really makes me think. I'm not into Christian Rock, bu this song is awesome.


Pillar-Hypnotized



It's been far too long, we've known all along
This was going on, can't seem to respond to anything, so, we carry on
With our lives, we rewind, we can't find, we deny
The simple fact that we haven't done anything
Doesn't mean that we can't start offering
Why do we feel so far? It's like we're seeing stars
Why does it seem so hard to wake up now and see who we really are?

So, let go
Don't follow

Where do we go from here?
How did it disappear?
It's hard to see with our own eyes
These times (these lies)
We've been hypnotized

I think it's time we try to open up our eyes
Look away from the very thing that's made us cry
We're hypnotized, and you'll see the real me
Luckily, it can't be stopped
If the tick-tock of life isn't all that you got
So, come ready or not
Wake up, it's your last shot

So, come to
And redo

"Something, something. God it's Sunday. Do HAIRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!"

O actually thats not how it goes but thats exactly what it sounds like he's saying (Iseadragon might know what I'm talking about as well as some other people on the forums who I've noticed love this band)

A friend in need's a friend indeed,
a friend with weed is better

-Placebo

Spoiler for Editors - Smokers Outside The Hospital Doors:

Pull the blindfold down
So your eyes can't see
Now run as fast as you can
Through this field of trees

Say goodbye to everyone
You have ever known
You are not gonna see them ever again

I can't shake this feeling I've got
My dirty hands, have I been in the wars?
The saddest thing that I'd ever seen
Were smokers outside the hospital doors

Someone turn me around
Can I start this again?

How can we wear our smiles
With our mouths wide shut
'Cause you stopped us from singin'

I can't shake this feeling I've got
My dirty hands, have I been in the wars?
The saddest thing that I'd ever seen
Were smokers outside the hospital doors

Someone turn me around
Can I start this again?
Now someone turn us around
Can we start this again?
[Smokers Outside The Hospital Doors lyrics on http://www.metrolyrics.com]


We've all been changed
From what we were
Our broken parts
Left smashed off the floor

I can't believe you
If I can't hear you
I can't believe you
If I can't hear you

We've all been changed
From what we were
Our broken parts
Smashed off the floor

We've all been changed
From what we were
Our broken parts
Smashed off the floor

Someone turn me around
(We've all been changed from what we were)
Can I start this again?
(Our broken parts smashed off the floor)
Now someone turn us around
(We've all been changed from what we were)
Can we start this again?
(Our broken parts smashed off the floor)

It's called A Gothic Romance (Red Roses for the Devil's Whore) by Cradle of Filth. Their music is a bit too screamy for me, but I LOVE their lyrics. It's about a man being seduced then turned into a vampire. Very poetic and beautiful.

Spoiler for long lyrics:

Evening minuetto in a castle by the sea
A jewel more radiant than the moon
Lowered her mask to me
The sublimest creature the gods, full of fire
Would marvel at making their queen
Infusing the air with her fragrant desire
And my heart reeled with grave poetry...

From grace I fell in love with Her
Scent and feline lure
And jade woodland eyes that ushered in the impurest
"Erotic, laden fantasies amid this warm Autumn night
She lulled me away from the rich masquerade
And together we clung in the bloodletting moonlight"
Pearled Luna, what spell didst thou cast on me?
Her icy kiss fervoured my neck
Like whispering waves 'pon Acheron's beach
In a whirl of sweet voices and statues
That phantomed the dying trees
This debauched seductress in black, took me...

In a pale azured dawn like Ligeia reborn
I tore free of my sleep - sepulchre
On the sea misted lawn where stone figures, forlorn
Lamented the spectre of her
Bewildered and weak, yet with passion replete
I hungered for past overtures
The curse of unrest and her ardent caress
Came much more than my soul could endure....

I, at once endeavoured to see her again
Stirring from midnight's inertia
Knowing not even her name
On a thin precipice over carnal abyss
I danced like a blind acolyte
Drunk on red wine, her dead lips on mine
Suffused with the perfume of night

For hours I scoured the surrounding grounds
In vain that we might meet
When storm clouds broke, ashened, fatigued
I sought refuge in a cemetery

Sleep, usher dreams
Taint to nightmares from a sunless nether

Mistress of the dark
I now know what thou art

Screams haunt my sleep
Dragged from nightmares thou hast wed together

Lamia and Lemures
Spawned thee leche
To snare my flesh

Portrait of the dead countess

Deep stained pain that I had dreamt
Flaunted demise, life's punishment
Leaving little strength to seal this wretched tomb...

But poised nectar within my stirs
Up feverous desire and morbid purpose to search
Through cobwebbed drapery to where she swoons
Goddess of the graveyard, of the tempest and moon
In flawless fatal beauty her very visage compels
Glimpses of a heaven where ghost companies fell
To mourning the loss of God in blackest velvet
Enrobed in their downfall like a swift silhouette

"Fleeting, enshadowed
Thou art privy to my sin
Secrets dead, wouldst thou inflict
The cruel daylights upon my skin?
Dost thou not want to worship me
With crimson sacrifice
So my cunt may twitch against thy kiss
And weep with newfound life?"

Red roses for the devil's whore...

Dark angels taste my tears
And whisper haunting requiems
Softly to mine ear
Need-fires have lured abominations here...

Nocturnal pulse
My veins spill forth their waters
Rent by lips I cherish most

Awash on her perfidious shores
Where drowning umbra o'er the stars
Ebon's graves where lovers whore
Like seraphim and Nahemah

"Nahemah"

Pluck out mine eyes, hasten, attest
Blind reason against thee, Enchantress
For I must know, art thou not death?
My heart echoes bloodless and incensed....

Doth temptation prowl night in vulvic revelry
Did not the queen of Heaven come as devil to me?
On that fatal Hallow's Eve when we fled company
As the music swept around us in the crisp, fated leaves
Under horned Diana where her bloodline was sewn
In a graveyard of angels rent in cool marbled stone
I am grieving the loss of life in sombre velvet
Enrobed in Death's shadow like a swifter
silhouette....

I like it because it's senseless and filthy rude at the same time.
