Bob Dylan, Tangled Up In Blue: Early one morning the sun was shining I was laying in bed Wond'ring if she'd changed it all If her hair was still red Her folks they said our lives together Sure was gonna be rough They never did like Mama's homemade dress Papa's bankbook wasn't big enough And I was standing on the side of the road Rain falling on my shoes Heading out for the East Coast Lord knows I've paid some dues getting through Tangled up in blue. She was married when we first meet Soon to be divorced I helped her out of a jam I guess But I used a little too much force We drove that car as far as we could Abandoned it out West Split it up on a dark sad night Both agreeing it was best She turned around to look at me As I was walking away I heard her say over my shoulder "We'll meet again someday on the avenue" Tangled up in blue. I had a job in the great north woods Working as a cook for a spell But I never did like it all that much And one day the ax just fell So I drifted down to New Orleans Where I happened to be employed Working for a while on a fishing boat Right outside of Delacroix But all the while I was alone The past was close behind I seen a lot of women But she never escaped my mind and I just grew Tangled up in blue. She was working in a topless place And I stopped in for a beer I just kept looking at her side of her face In the spotlight so clear And later on as the crowd thinned out I's just about to do the same She was standing there in back of my chair Said to me "Don't I know your name ?" I muttered something underneath my breath She studied the lines on my face I must admit I felt a little uneasy When she bent down to tie the laces of my shoe Tangled up in blue. She lit a burner on the stove and offered me a pipe "I thought you'd never say hello" she said "You look like the silent type" Then she opened up a book of poems And handed it to me Written by an Italian poet From the thirteenth century And every one of them words rang true And glowed like burning coal Pouring off of every page Like it was written in my soul from me to you Tangled up in blue I lived with them on Montague Street In a basement down the stairs There was music in the caf,s at night And revolution in the air Then he started into dealing with slaves And something inside of him died She had to sell everything she owned And froze up inside And when finally the bottom fell out I became withdrawn The only thing I knew how to do Was to keep on keeping on like a bird that flew Tangled up in blue. So now I'm going back again I got to get her somehow All the people we used to know They're an illusion to me now Some are mathematicians Some are carpenter's wives Don't know how it all got started I don't what they're doing with their lives But me I'm still on the road Heading for another joint We always did feel the same We just saw it from a different point of view Tangled up in Blue.
Yeah that Dylan song was 1000 times better than the one i posted :smug:
Kings Of Leon Happy Alone On our way, so it seems, blooming flowers waltz before me Rollin' numbers, passing time, got to get outside the city, In the morning all will see, just how crazy young love can be On our own away again, don't get down my darlin' I'm gonna tangle my face hair, it's gonna tickle your daughter 3 o'clock and the moaning, they all cry to me, I'll be prancin' around in my high heels, and your cherry red lipstick, Look out your window i'm on your street Miles away, so unclear, almost lost it in Montana Lets pull over, have us a choke I love to watch you when your dancin' I wonder if they ever dream, they would get just what we gave them All wrapped up in 19, chasin' stars that are fallin When that train heads home, They're gonna be so gone gone, you aint never gonna see me Im a gone gone, you aint nothin to me When they shine them streets, they're gonna find our song I'm on your street , they all cry to me
2112 - Rush (Major Fucking Song) [quote=Neil Mother Fucking Peart]'I lie awake, staring out at the bleakness of Megadon. City and sky become one, merging Into a single plane, a vast sea of unbroken grey. The Twin Moons, just two pale orbs as They trace their way across the steely sky. I used to think I had a pretty good life here, Just plugging into my machine for the day, then watching Templevision or reading a Temple Paper in the evening. 'My friend Jon always said it was nicer here than under the atmospheric domes of the Outer Planets. We have had peace since 2062, when the surviving planets were banded together under The Red Star of the Solar Federation. The less fortunate gave us a few new moons. I believed what I was told. I thought it was a good life, I thought I was happy. Then I found Something that changed it all...' And the meek shall inherit the earth... ...'The massive grey walls of the Temples rise from the heart of every Federation city. I Have always been awed by them, to think that every single facet of every life is regulated And directed from within! Our books, our music, our work and play are all looked after by The benevolent wisdom of the priests...' We've taken care of everything The words you hear, the songs you sing The pictures that give pleasure to your eyes It's one for all and all for one We work together, common sons Never need to wonder how or why We are the Priests of the Temples of Syrinx Our great computers fill the hallowed halls We are the Priests, of the Temples of Syrinx All the gifts of life are held within our walls Look around at this world we've made Equality our stock in trade Come and join the Brotherhood of Man Oh, what a nice, contented world Let the banners be unfurled Hold the Red Star proudly high in hand We are the Priests of the Temples of Syrinx Our great computers fill the hallowed halls We are the Priests, of the Temples of Syrinx All the gifts of life are held within our walls '...Behind my beloved waterfall, in the little room that was hidden beneath the cave, I Found it. I brushed away the dust of the years, and picked it up, holding it reverently in My hands. I had no idea what it might be, but it was beautiful...' '...I learned to lay my fingers across the wires, and to turn the keys to make them sound Differently. As I struck the wires with my other hand, I produced my first harmonious sounds And soon my own music! How different it could be from the music of the Temples! I can't wait To tell the priests about it!...' What can this strange device be? When I touch it, it gives forth a sound It's got wires that vibrate and give music What can this thing be that I found? See how it sings like a sad heart And joyously screams out it's pain Sounds that build high like a mountain Or notes that fall gently like rain I can't wait to share this new wonder The people will all see it's light Let them all make their own music The Priests praise my name on this night '...In the sudden silence as I finished playing, I looked up to a circle of grim, Expressionless faces. Father Brown rose to his feet, and his somnolent voice echoed Throughout the silent Temple Hall...' '...Instead of the grateful joy that I expected, they were words of quiet rejection! Instead of praise, sullen dismissal. I watched in shock and horror as Father Brown ground My precious instrument to splinters beneath his feet...' I know it's most unusual To come before you so But I've found an ancient miracle I thought that you should know Listen to my music And hear what it can do There's something here as strong as life I know that it will reach you Yes, we know, it's nothing new It's just a waste of time We have no need for ancient ways The world is doing fine Another toy will help destroy The elder race of man Forget about your silly whim It doesn't fit the plan I can't believe you're saying These things just can't be true Our world could use this beauty Just think what we might do Listen to my music And hear what it can do There's something here as strong as life I know that it will reach you Don't annoy us further! We have our work to do Just think about the average What use have they for you? Another toy will help destroy The elder race of man Forget about your silly whim It doesn't fit the Plan! '...I guess it was a dream, but even now it all seems so vivid to me. Clearly yet I see The beckoning hand of the oracle as he stood at the summit of the staircase...' '...I see still the incredible beauty of the sculptured cities and the pure spirit of man Revealed in the lives and works of this world. I was overwhelmed by both wonder and Understanding as I saw a completely different way to life, a way that had been crushed By the Federation long ago. I saw now how meaningless life had become with the loss of All these things...' I wandered home though the silent streets And fell into a fitful sleep Escape to realms beyond the night Dream can't you show me the light? I stand atop a spiral stair An oracle confronts me there He leads me on light years away Through astral nights, galactic days I see the works of gifted hands That grace this strange and wondrous land I see the hand of man arise With hungry mind and open eyes They left the planet long ago The elder race still learn and grow Their power grows with purpose strong To claim the home where they belong Home to tear the Temples down... Home to change! '...I have not left this cave for days now, it has become my last refuge in my total Despair. I have only the music of the waterfall to comfort me now. I can no longer live Under the control of the Federation, but there is no other place to go. My last hope is That with my death I may pass into the world of my dream, and know peace at last.' The sleep is still in my eyes The dream is still in my head I heave a sigh and sadly smile And lie a while in bed I wish that it might come to pass Not fade like all my dreams... Just think of what my life might be In a world like I have seen! I don't think I can carry on Carry on this cold and empty life My spirits are low in the depths of despair My lifeblood... ...Spills over...

Personally I love the lyrics to Infinite Dreams by Iron Maiden, simply because I have fucking horrific dreams. [quote=Iron Maiden]Infinite dreams I can't deny them Infinity is hard to comprehend I couldn't hear those screams Even in my wildest dreams Suffocation waking in a sweat Scared to fall asleep again Incase the dream begins again Someone chasing and cannot move Standing rigid a nightmare's statue What a dream when will it end And will I transcend? Restless sleep the minds in turmoil One nightmare ends another fertile It's getting to me so scared to sleep But scared to wake now, in too deep Even though its reached new heights I rather like the restless nights It makes me wonder it makes me think There's more to this I'm on the brink It's not the fear of what's beyond It's just that I might not respond I have an interest almost craving But would I like to get too far in? It can't be all coincidence Too many things are evident You tell me you're an unbeliever Spiritualist? Well me I'm neither But wouldn't you like to know The truth Of what's out there to have the proof And find out just which side You're on Where would you end in Heaven or In Hell? Help me. Help me to find my true Self without seeing the future Save me, save me from torturing Myself even within my dreams There's got to be just more to it Than this Or tell me why do we exist I'd like to think that when I die I'd get a chance another time And to return and live again Reincarnate, play the game Again and again and again and again[/quote] A lot of them seem out of context though, since it's from a concept album.

Brand New - Jesus Christ. "Jesus Christ, that's a pretty face The kind you'd find on someone that could save If they don't put me away It’ll be a miracle Do you believe you're missing out? That everything good is happening somewhere else But with nobody in your bed The night is hard to get through And I will die all alone And when I arrive I won’t know anyone Well, Jesus Christ, I’m alone again So what did you do those three days you were dead? Because this problem's gonna last More than the weekend Well, Jesus Christ I’m not scared to die I’m a little bit scared of what comes after Do I get the gold chariot Do I float through the ceiling Do I divide and fall apart Cause my bright is too slight to hold back all my dark This ship went down in sight of land And at the gates does Thomas ask to see my hands? I know you'll come in the night like a thief But I’ve had some time alone to hone my lying technique I know you think that I’m someone you can trust But I’m scared I’ll get scared and I swear I’ll try to nail you back up (everyone now) So do you think that we could work out a psalm So I’ll know it's you and that it's over so I won't even try I know you'll come for the people like me But we all got wood and nails, And talk dirt at hating factories But, we all got wood and nails And talk dirt at hating factories Yeah, we all got wood and nails And we sleep inside of this machine" Some of the lyrics are wrong because lyric websites are retarded, and I can't be bothered correcting them all.

Van Der Graaf Generator - The Sleepwalkers [quote]At night, this mindless army, ranks unbroken by dissent, is moved into action and their pace does not relent. In step, with great precision, these dancers of the night advance against the darkness - how implacable their might! Eyes undulled by moon, their arms and legs akimbo, they walk and live, hoping soon to surface from this limbo. Their minds, anticipating the dawn of the day, shall never know what's waiting mere insight away - too far, too soon. Senses dimmed in semi-sentience, only wheeling through this plane, only seeing fragmented images prematurely curtailed by the brain, but breathing, living, knowing in some measure at least the soul which roots the matter of both Beauty and the Beast. From what tooth or claw does murder spring, from what flesh and blood does passion? Both cut through the air with the pendulum's swing in deadly but delicate fashion. And every range of feeling is there in the dream and every logic's reeling in the force of the scream the senses sting. And though I may be dreaming and reality stalls I only know the meaning of sight and that's all and that's nothing. The columns of the night advance, infectiously, their cryptic dance gathers converts to the fold - in time the whole raw world will pace these same steps on into the same bitter end. Somnolent muster now the dancing dead forsake the shelter of their secure beds, awaken to a slumber whose depths they dread, as if the ground they tread would give way beneath the solemn weight of their conception. I'd search the hidden corners of all this world, make reason of the sensory whorl if I only had time, but soon the dream is ended. Tonight, before you lay down to the sweetness of your sleep do you question your surrender to the drop from Lover's Leap or does the anaesthetic darkness take hold on its very own? Does your body rise in service with not one dissenting groan? These waking dreams of life and death in the mirror are twisted and buckled, lashes flicker, a catch of breath, skin whitening at the knuckles. The army of sleepwalkers shake their limbs and are loose and though I am a talker, I can phrase no excuse not to rise again. In the chorus of the night-time I belong and I, like you, must dance to that moonlight song and in the end I too must pay the cost of this life. If all is lost none is known and how could we lose what we've never owned? Oh, I'd search out every knowledge that I could find, unravel all the mysteries of mind, if I only had time, if I only had time, but soon my time is ended.[/quote] A song about how our quest to find answers to cosmic questions is cut prematurely by death.
Iron Maiden - Remember Tomorrow [quote]Unchain the colours, before my eyes. Yesterday's sorrows, tomorrow's white lies. Scan the horizon, the clouds take me higher. I shall return, from out of the fire. Tears for remembrance, and tears for joy. Tears for somebody, not this lonely boy. Out in the madness, the all seeing eye. Flickers above us, to light up the sky. Unchain the colours, before my eyes. Yesterday's sorrows, tomorrow's white lies. Scan the horizon, the clouds take me higher. I shall return, from out of the fire.[/quote]

Someone already took 2112 but here's my second favorite. Dream Theater - Change of seasons I. The Crimson Sunrise (Instrumental) II. Innocence I remember a time My frail, virgin mind watched the crimson sunrise Imagined what it might find Life was filled with wonder I felt the warm wind blow I must explore the boundaries Transcend the depth of winter's snow Innocence caressing me I never felt so young before There was so much life in me Still I longed to search for more But those days are gone now Changed like a leaf on a tree Blown away forever into the cool autumn breeze The snow has now fallen and my sun's not so bright I struggle to hold on with the last of my might In my den of inequity viciousness and subtlety struggle to ease the pain struggle to find the sane Ignorance surrounding me I've never been so filled with fear All my life's been drained from me The end is drawing near.... III. Carpe Diem 'Carpe diem, seize the day' I'll always remember The chill of November The news of the fall The sounds in the hall The clock on the wall ticking away 'Seize the Day' I heard him say Life will not always be this way Look around Hear the sounds Cherish your life while you're still around "Gather ye rosebuds while ye may, Old Time is still a-flying; And this same flower that smiles today, Tomorrow will be dying." We can learn from the past But those days are gone We can hope for the future But there may not be one The words stuck in my mind alive from what I've learned I have to seize the day To home I returned Preparing for her flight I held with all my might Fearing my deepest fright She walked into the night She turned for one last look She looked me in the eye I said, 'I Love You...Good-bye' "It's the most awful thing you'll ever hear." "If you're lying to me..." "Oh, you dearly love her." "...just have to leave... all our lives." "Seize the day!" "Something happened. "Gather ye rosebuds while ye may." "She was killed." IV. The Darkest of Winters (Instrumental) V. Another World So far or so it seems All is lost with nothing fulfilled Off the pages and a T.V. screen Another world where nothing's true Tripping through the life fantastic Lose a step and never get up Left alone with a cold blank stare I feel like giving up I was blinded by a paradise Utopia high in the sky A dream that only drowned me Deep in sorrow, wondering why Oh come let us adore him Abuse and then ignore him No matter what, don't let him be Let's feed upon his misery Then string him up for all the world to see I'm sick of all you hypocrites holding me at bay And I don't need your sympathy to get me through the day Seasons change and so can I Hold on boy, No time to cry Untie these strings, I'm climbing down I won't let them push me away Oh come let us adore him Abuse and then ignore him No matter what, don't let him be Let's feed upon his misery Now it's time for them to deal with me VI. The Inevitable Summer (Instrumental) VII. The Crimson Sunset I'm much wiser now A lifetime of memories run through my head They taught me how for better or worse, alive or dead I realize there's no turning back Life goes on the offbeaten track I sit down with my son Set to see the Crimson Sunset (Gather ye rosebuds while ye may) Many years have come and gone I've lived my life, but now must move on (Gather ye rosebuds while ye may) He is my only one Now that my time has come Now that my life is done We look into the sun 'Seize the day and don't you cry, Now it's time to say good-bye Even though I'll be gone, I will live on, live on.'
Pig Destroyer - Girl in the Slayer Jacket [quote]The girl in the Slayer jacket Gave me my first kiss When I was in the seventh grade She used to smoke Weed with my older sister In the woods behind the arcade The woods behind the arcade She had thick skin But if you cut her The wound Would bleed forever She would bleed forever She She would bleed forever She hung herself From an overpass Down in McLean Where the old trees loom (her parents tried to sue Slayer they blamed her) Her parents Tried to sue Slayer They blamed her boyfriend and PCP But the truth is her eyes Had been dead since she was five She just hadn't disposed of her body[/quote]
Song: Less Than Nothing Artist: I Hate Myself Lyrics: 60 watts, brighter than my future, an empty forty, fuller than my life, there must be more, sometimes i don't think so, maybe i'm right. maybe there's no such thing as a brighter side A sultry night stare at moons from rooftops, A broken engine, poisoned never dry, I pour my heart out to a god that doesn't listen, You said you'd save me. You said you'd love me always but you lied. And i can't dry my eyes and there is nothing left inside, one day. the day. the day that i said i, my heart inside was cold so that you didn't know, so all and you, you won't love me at all, the leaves come down, there is no sound, and if i fall would you notice at all? the thought of me repulses me, but you'd say you took me anyway, Iam so alone on a corroded city rooftop, I saw you walking, you didn't say anything, You always told me that you'd never stop loving me, But you stopped before you started and now all I have is lies. What am I gonna be? Who am I gonna be? Afraid, Repressed, And now that I feel lost, Well I wish that you had grown While I bleed all alone, The falling rain Is what is left for me We're gonna be What's left for me What is there to learn? There is less than nothing, I thought you'd be. be there for me You weren't there. you weren't anywhere. You lied right to my face You broke my fucking heart, One day, one day you tore my heart apart. And i have nothing, And i am nothing, I'm piss, I'm shit, I am less than nothing. I really like them anyway.
I give you Sheep, by Pink Floyd: Harmlessly passing your time in the grassland away; Only dimly aware of a certain unease in the air. You better watch out, There may be dogs about I've looked over Jordan, and I have seen Things are not what they seem. What do you get for pretending the danger's not real. Meek and obedient you follow the leader Down well trodden corridors into the valley of steel. What a surprise! A look of terminal shock in your eyes. Now things are really what they seem. No, this is no bad dream. The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want He makes me down to lie Through pastures green He leadeth me the silent waters by. With bright knives He releaseth my soul. He maketh me to hang on hooks in high places. He converteth me to lamb cutlets, For lo, He hath great power, and great hunger. When cometh the day we lowly ones, Through quiet reflection, and great dedication Master the art of karate, Lo, we shall rise up, And then we'll make the bugger's eyes water. Bleating and babbling I fell on his neck with a scream. Wave upon wave of demented avengers March cheerfully out of obscurity into the dream. Have you heard the news? The dogs are dead! You better stay home And do as you're told. Get out of the road if you want to grow old

[quote]The car is on fire, and there's no driver at the wheel And the sewers are all muddied with a thousand lonely suicides And a dark wind blows The government is corrupt And we're on so many drugs With the radio on and the curtains drawn We're trapped in the belly of this horrible machine And the machine is bleeding to death The sun has fallen down And the billboards are all leering And the flags are all dead at the top of their poles It went like this: The buildings tumbled in on themselves Mothers clutching babies Picked through the rubble And pulled out their hair The skyline was beautiful on fire All twisted metal stretching upwards Everything washed in a thin orange haze I said, "Kiss me, you're beautiful - These are truly the last days" You grabbed my hand And we fell into it Like a daydream Or a fever We woke up one morning and fell a little further down For sure it's the valley of death I open up my wallet And it's full of blood[/quote][/QUOTE] This. At least of the ones I can think of.
Personally I love "The Future Was Not What It Used To Be" With Mickey Newbury [QUOTE]I left Decatur; hell bent to forget Bought a ticket to SKOWHEGAN MAINE I wound up in Seattle So drunk and so rattled Lord I’d caught the wrong train I met some fast easy women and some hard drinking men Swore I’d drown my sorrow in me I once had a lot, but the future was not, not what it used to be Ah the years they went by I went steadily down hill til I had no place left to go I made the missions by morning made the dives every night Til I made a wreck of my body and soul Then I met a lady, in time she made me forget her love set me free Ah, we didn’t have a lot but the future was not, not what it used to be I never thought I would live to get old for the past cut a whole deep in me But there was the chance to be here a while longer at least I wanted to be Somebody told me that she was in town, I found out today Lord how it hurts me to hear that she’s’ down, but what else can I say I know her sorrow, I know her pain, and I know her need I once loved her a lot, but the future’s just not, not what it used to be [/QUOTE]
Interchanging mind control come let the Revolution take it's toll if you could Flick a switch and open your third eye and see that We should never be afraid to die (so come on) Rise up and take the power back it's time the Fat cats had a heart attack you know that Their time's coming to an end we have to Unify and watch our flag ascend (so come on) They will not force us They will stop degrading us They will not control us We will be victorious [editline]11:37PM[/editline] Band: Muse Song: Uprising [editline]11:38PM[/editline] Or the ''Map of the Problematique'' lyrics

The line "She would bleed forever" kind of indicates something among those lines.
Song: Dont Stop Believing Artist: Journey Just a small town girl Living in a lonely world She took the midnight train going anywhere Just a city boy Born and raised in South Detroit He took the midnight train going anywhere A singer in a smoky room A smell of wine and cheap perfume For a smile they can share the night It goes on and on and on and on {Refrain} Strangers, waiting, up and down the boulevard Their shadows searching in the night Streetlight people, living just to find emotion Hiding somewhere in the night Working hard to get my fill Everybody wants a thrill Paying anything to roll the dice Just one more time Some will win, some will lose Some were born to sing the blues Oh the movie never ends It goes on and on and on and on {Refrain} Don't stop believing Hold on to that feeling Streetlight people Song: White Rabbit Artist: ? One pill makes you larger And one pill makes you small And the ones that mother gives you Don't do anything at all Go ask Alice When she's ten feet tall And if you go chasing rabbits And you know you're going to fall Tell 'em a hookah smoking caterpillar Has given you the call Call Alice When she was just small When men on the chessboard Get up and tell you where to go And you've just had some kind of mushroom And your mind is moving low Go ask Alice I think she'll know When logic and proportion Have fallen sloppy dead And the White Knight is talking backwards And the Red Queen's "off with her head!" Remember what the dormouse said: "Feed your head Feed your head Feed your head"
