Music is an expression of your feelings. It is an extension of our thoughts in a way. So, since we rarely post any song lyrics on the site, I wanted to start a thread where we post our favorite song lyrics. Whether it has specific meaning to you, or you like the way it sounds, doesnt matter. So post you favorite song lyrics here.
Last Train Home -Lost Prophets
To every broken heart in here Love was once a part, but now it's disappeared She told me that it's all a part of the choices that your making Even when you think you're right You have to give to take
But there's still tomorrow Forget the sorrow And I can be on the last train home Watch it pass the day As it fades away No more time to care No more time, today
But we sing If we're going nowhere Yeah we sing If it's not enough And we sing Sing without a reason To ever fall in love
I wonder if you're listening Picking up on the signals Sent back from within Sometimes it feels like I don't really know whats going on Time and time again it seems like everything is wrong in here
But there's still tomorrow Forget the sorrow And I can be on the last train home Watch it pass the day As it fades away No more time to care No more time, today
But we sing If we're going nowhere Yeah we sing If it's not enough And we sing Sing without a reason To ever fall in love
Well we sing if we're going nowhere Yeah we sing if it's not enough And we sing Sing without a reason to ever fall in love
But we sing If we're going no where Yeah we sing If it's not enough And we sing Sing with out a reason to never fall in love To never fall in love again -----------------------------------------------
I like the song because of the chorus, it just sounds like something my friends and I would sing.

This song has a very quick pace to it, it's about the main character tot he show Outlaw star, a guy who wants freedom and adventure, to roam with an attitude, living life to the fullest, while looking for something greater. I love this song...
__________________________________
Through the Night, Theme from Outlaw star (favorite tv series ever)
Don't make fun of it! Don't destroy it! Don't cheapen it! That one thing everyone has that they won't give up. Only love! Only dreams! Only you! Those are the only things I won't let go, ever.
On nights when I can't settle down no matter what, I just want to throw anything and everything away. Don't whine and complain, just open the door, ya know. I don't have time to quibble with you.
I want to fly all over the place. I wanna throw caution to the wind. It isn't because I've lost anything It's because nothing's even started yet
Don't make fun of it! Don't destroy it! Don't cheapen it! That one thing everyone has that they won't give up. Only love! Only dreams! Only you! Those are the only things I won't let go, ever. What do you want? What do you wanna do? Where do you wanna go? Cut through the darkness and run to grab what you want (all) through the night
Sometimes I'll let my guard down to your kindness, but sometimes I worry. I've been doing whatever I want as much as I wanted to, But to tell the truth, to be with you is the best.
Believing, I want us to believe in each other. I want it to be as plain as black and white. Because it's not just intensity Because it's not just gentless...
Don't make fun of it! Don't destroy it! Don't cheapen it! Who do I want to hold? I should know. Only love! Only dreams! Only you! I can't protect even those unless I get moving. Even if I get hurt, or I hurt someone, or I have to take the long way, With my heart as it is, tumbling as I am, I'll pierce (all) through the night
Don't make fun of it! Don't destroy it! Don't cheapen it! That one thing everyone has that they won't give up. Only love! Only dreams! Only you! Those are the only things I won't let go, ever.
Holding each other, getting hurt, then loss... Everyone hurts the one they hold most dear. Anyway, I just can't understand being shackled with a promise... I can't put my finger on it...
What do you want? What do you wanna do? Where do you wanna go? Cut through the dark and run to grab what you want (all) through the night

Work-Jimmy Eat World
If you only once would let me Only just one time Then be happy with the consequence With whatever's gonna happen tonight Don't think we're not serious When's it ever not The love we make is killing its take A game to play along
All I can say I should of said Can we take a ride? Get out of this place While we still have time
All the best DJs are saving The slowest song for last When the dance is through Its me and you Come on would it really be so bad The things we think might be the same But I won't falthom more Its just not me to wear it on my sleeve Count on the for sure
All I can say I should of said Can we take a ride? Get out of this place While we still have time Wanna take a ride? Get out of this place While we still have time Yeah - We still have time
Can't say I was never wrong But some blame rests on you Work and play but never okay To mix the way we do
All I can say I should of said Can we take a ride? Get out of this place While we still have time Wanna take a ride? Get out of this place While we still have time We still have time --------------------------------------------------
No reason for this one. I just love the song.

Way to Fall-Starsailor
Son, you've got a way to fall They'll tell you where to go But they won't know
Son, you'd better take it all They'll tell you what they know But they won't show
Oh, I've got something in my throat I need to be alone While I suffer
Son, you've got a way to kill They're picking on you still But they don't know
Son, you'd better wait to shine They'll tell you what is yours But they take mine
Oh, I've got something in my throat I need to be alone While I suffer
Oh, there's a hole inside my boat I need stay afloat For the summer long
(Break)
Oh (Left my sweet soul) I've got something in my throat (Beneath the bedclothes) I need to be alone (I'm not coming down) While I suffer
Oh (Walls have ears) There's a hole inside my boat (But no one hears) I need to stay afloat (When nobody's around) For the summer
Son, you better wait to fall They'll tell you where to go But they won't know ______________________________
"I need to be alone while I suffer", the best line.

Okay, I would, however about half of my music is ruled out due to the profanity limit on this board. Example: The Union Underground, Steven Lynch, Metallica, Breaking Benjamin, etc. However, I shall contribute:
500 Miles by Stephen Curtis Chapman
When I wake up yeah I know I'm gonna be I'm gonna be the man who wakes up next to you When I go out yeah I know I'm gonna be I'm gonna be the man who goes along with you
When I'm lonely well I know I'm gonna be I'm gonna be the man whose lonely without you When I'm dreaming well I know I'm gonna dream I'm gonna dream about the time when I'm with you
But I would walk 500 miles And I would walk 500 more Just to be the man who walked a thousand miles To fall down at your door
When I'm working yes I know I'm gonna be I'm gonna be the man who's working hard for you And when the money comes in for the work I'll do I'll pass almost every penny on to you When I come home yeah I know I'm gonna be I'm gonna be the man who comes back home to you And if I grow old well I know I'm gonna be I'm gonna be the man who's growing old with you
But I would walk 500 miles And I would walk 500 more Just to be the man who walked a thousand miles To fall down at your door
When I'm dreaming well I know I'm gonna dream Dream about the time when I'm with you And when I wake up yeah I know I'm gonna be I'm gonna be the man who wakes up next to you And when I go out well I know I'm gonna be I'm gonna be the man who goes along with you When I come home yes I know I'm gonna be I'm gonna be the man who comes back home to you I'm gonna be the man who comes back home to you
But I would walk 500 miles And I would walk 500 more Just to be the man who walked a thousand miles To fall down at your door

Drowning Pool-Love and War
Promise that you always will Keep candles lit on the windowsill You know I'll be comin' home
You know I never wanted to go away But what am I supposed to say When I hear the sounds of the trumpet call Who says
All is fair in love and war
Your pictures kept close to my heart Letters all but fall apart Each night I read them over again
You know I never wanted to go away But what am I supposed to say When I hear the sounds of the trumpet call Who says
You know I never wanted to go away I swear Its war ------------------------------------------------------
It's war...

Two new ones that I like. Both are by the band Celldweller. --------------------------------------------------------------------
One good reason
made the mistake of opening my mouth thought you'd understand but i guess that thinking doesn't count act all concerned--well, sucks for me man can't wait to see where you will be when it finally hits the fan you tell me i shouldn't want to die but can't give me one good reason why oh give it up and get out of my way don't bother patronizing me just cuz you've got nothing to say i've taken what you've told me-i was ready to apply "liars can't be trusted" man, but you're the one who lied one time my spine controlled by your small mind so many reasons for what you've justified (don't kill yourself)
----------------------------------------------------------
Own little world
Mutual sight, Mutual sound Mutual struggle, for shared ground It's safe, to say, they'll try to take from me I'm just another one for them to break down
Steeped in denial, the daily grind Dream of a world for me and my kind It's safe in the alternative reality So stick your standards where the sun doesn't shine
They're for themselves, it doesn't matter what they say Promise the world then take it from you anyway They'll break you down making your vision fadeaway It's time to go: get outta my space
Welcome to a world where the air I breathe is mine There's nothing to overwhelm me and nothing to cloud my mind Be anyone, do anything I'd ever want to try Time doesn't exist here, I will never die
Explain the reasons, Explain the rhymes It's not required, inside our minds It's safe to try, no need to justify Or take their guilt trip at the end of the line.
They're for themselves, it doesn't matter what they say Promise the world then take it from you anyway They'll break you down making your vision fadeaway It's time to go: get off of my case
Welcome to a world where the air I breathe is mine There's nothing to overwhelm me and nothing to cloud my mind Be anyone, do anything I'd ever want to try Time doesn't exist here
Slip into a world where the air I breathe is mine There's nothing to overwhelm me and nothing to cloud my mind Come with me into it and you know what you will find Time doesn't exist here, I will never die
(My Own Little World)
They're for themselves, it doesn't matter what they say It's time to go: get out of my face
Welcome to a world where the air I breathe is mine There's nothing to overwhelm me and nothing to cloud my mind Be anyone, do anything I'd ever want to try Time doesn't exist here
Slip into a world where the air I breathe is mine There's nothing to overwhelm me and nothing to cloud my mind Come with me into it and you know what you will find Time doesn't exist here, we will never die

Yay! Yet another!
Eagleheart-Stratovarius
All through the night he is lying awake Wond'ring how much more can he take Watching the walls where shadows dance Drifting away into a trance.
And his eyes are blazing with fire
Dreams burnt to ashes so many times Highest of mountains, still he climbs Ready to fly cause he just can't stay Flame burning brighter with every day
And his eyes are blazing with fire Longinng for the deepest desire
Heart of an eagle He flies through the rainbow Into a new world and finds the sun Spreading his wings above all the sorrows The glory of Eagleheart
Fever is burning in his veins Determined with courage breaking the chains Back against the wall under blood red skies Prepared to fight until he dies.

woot for double posting! Alright, My favorite song of all time, and my theme song. I chose this because KAnsas has an awesome sound to it and the lyrics are both artistic and meaningful, an insiring song to continue until your time has come and never give up.
"Carry on my Wayward Son"
Carry on my wayward son There'll be peace when you are done Lay your weary head to rest Don't you cry no more
Once I rose above the noise and confusion Just to get a glimpse beyond this illusion I was soaring ever higher But I flew too high
Though my eyes could see I still was a blind man Though my mind could think I still was a mad man I hear the voices when I'm dreaming I can hear them say
{Refrain
Masquerading as a man with a reason My charade is the event of the season And if I claim to be a wise man, well It surely means that I don't know
On a stormy sea of moving emotion Tossed about I'm like a ship on the ocean I set a course for winds of fortune But I hear the voices say
{Refrain No!
Carry on, you will always remember Carry on, nothing equals the splendor The center lights around your vanity But surely heaven waits for you
Carry on my wayward son There'll be peace when you are done Lay your weary head to rest Don't you cry (don't you cry no more)

Mansions of the Lord
To fallen soldiers let us sing, Where no rockets fly nor bullets wing, Our broken brothers let us bring To the Mansions of the Lord
No more weeping, No more fight, No friends bleeding through the night, Just Devine embrace, Eternal light, In the Mansions of the Lord
Where no mothers cry And no children weep, We shall stand and guard Though the angels sleep, Oh, through the ages let us keep The Mansions of the Lord -------------------------------------------------
Its from We were Soldiers. An incredibly good Vietnam War movie. Very gross and incredibly realistic, but it brings a sense of patriotism. The song itself, is a very slow pace, mostly accapella, but during the second verse, a orchestra joins in.

One Tin Soldier
Listen, Children to a story that was written long ago. 'Bout a Kingdom on a Mountain and the Valley far below. On the Mountain was a treasure, buried deep beneath the stone. And the Valley people swore they'd have it for their very own.
(Chorus) So go ahead and hate your neighbor. Go ahead and cheat a friend. And do in the name of Heaven. You can justify it in the end. There won't be any trumpets blowing. Come the Judgement Day. For on the bloody morning after... One Tin Soldier rides away.
So the people of the Valley sent a message up the Hill. Asking for their buried treasure, tons of gold for which they'd kill. Came an answer from the Kingdom, "With our Brothers, we will share. All the secrets of a Mountain. All the rich is buried there."
(Repeat Chorus)
Now the Valley cried with anger, "Mount your Horses and draw your Swords!" And they killed the Mountain people, so they won their just rewards. Now they stood beside the treasure, on the Mountain dark and red. Turned the stone... And looked beneath it... "Peace on Earth" was all it said...
(Final Chorus)

Through Heavens Eyes-Prince of Egypt
A single thread in a tapestry Through its color brightly shine Can never see its purpose In the pattern of the grand design
And the stone that sits on the very top Of the mountain's mighty face Does it think it's more important Than the stones that form the base?
So how can you see what your life is worth Or where your value lies? You can never see through the eyes of man You must look at your life
Look at your life through heaven's eyes Lai-la-lai...
A lake of gold in the desert sand Is less than a cool fresh spring And to one lost sheep, a shepherd boy Is greater than the richest king If a man lose ev'rything he owns Has he truly lost his worth? Or is it the beginning Of a new and brighter birth?
So how do you measure the worth of a man In wealth or strength or size? In how much he gained or how much he gave? The answer will come The answer will come to him who tries To look at his life through heaven's eyes
And that's why we share all we have with you Though there's little to be found When all you've got is nothing There's a lot to go around
No life can escape being blown about By the winds of change and chance And though you never know all the steps You must learn to join the dance You must learn to join the dance Lai-la-lai...
So how do you judge what a man is worth By what he builds or buys? You can never see with your eyes on earth Look through heaven's eyes Look at your life Look at your life Look at your life through heaven's eyes ------------------------------------------------------------------------
Lai-la-li-lai-la!
I will go the distance- Hercules
I have often dreamed Of a far off place Where a hero's welcome Would be waiting for me Where the crowds will cheer When they see my face And a voice keeps saying This is where I'm meant to be
I'll be there someday I can go the distance I will find my way If I can be strong I know ev'ry mile Will be worth my while When I go the distance I'll be right where I belong
Down an unknown road To embrace my fate Though the road may wander It will lead me to you And a thousand years Would be worth the wait It may take a lifetime But somehow I'll see it through
And I won't look back I can go the distance And I'll stay on track No I won't accept defeat It's an uphill slope But I won't lose hope Till I go the distance And my journey is complete
But to look beyond the glory is the hardest part For a hero's strength is measured by his heart
Like a shooting star I can go the distance I will search the world I will face its harms I don't care how far I can go the distance TillI find my hero's welcome Waiting in your arms...
I will search the world I will face its harms TillI find my hero's welcome Waiting in your arms... ---------------------------------------- My new theme song!

(Don't know the Title to this, sorry.)
You turn the key And close the door behind you. Drop you bags on the floor. You reach for the Light, But there's Darkness deep inside, And you just can't take it anymore.
Sometimes a livin' Takes the life out of you.. And sometimes a livin' Is all you can do.
I never said it was an easy road to travel. I only said that you would never alone. When you last thread of Hope begins to come unraveled, Don't give up, I'll walk with you, On your Journey Home.
And I know That Life is hard; The World is cold; We are barely young and then we're old, But through every Hurt and Tear, I've always understood, That Life is hard, But Love is good.

Bah. It makes me sad that song lyrics are the only thing I can post to display my emotions. Everyone else can write poetry, or write songs or draw. You know what talent I have? I can copy and paste. What a superb skill. Here's one that applies to my life.
For You ----------------------------------
I will drink the cup, the poison overflowing I will lift you up, watch over where you're going The first one in The last one gone I'll be the rock to stand upon For you For you My spirit aches and I can't stop this river flowing In fear I take, each labored breath I draw in knowing That this could be my last, my final hour But faith and hope and love give me the power For you For you "Yea though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death I will fear no evil for you are with me" You are with me I'll be your salvation though the storm's surrounding There on our own conditions, lay my body down In the wake abondon willing sacrifice I'll walk though the canyon, bring the shadows life For you For you I will drink the cup, the poison overflowing I will lift you up watch over where you're going The first on in the last one gone I'll be the rock to stand upon The first on in the, last one gone I'll be the rock to stand upon For you For you For you
