Lyrics Of The Day

[Jamba]

TIME TO PUT ZE EARGOGGLES ON!

No!

 

(Born to) Born to multiply...

 

*Rocks out in own head*

[Calza]

I love these lyrics far too much, usually by the end of the song I am close to tears (no joke )

 

 

I love your eyes, my dear

their splendid, sparkling fire

when suddenly you raise them so

to cast a swift embracing glance

 

like lightning flashing in the sky

but there's a charm that is greater still:

when my love's eyes are lowered

when all is fired by passions kiss

 

and through the downcast lashes

I see the dull flame of desire

and through the downcast lashes

I see the dull flame of desire

 

I love your eyes, my dear

their splendid, sparkling fire

when suddenly you raise them so

to cast a swift embracing glance

 

like lightning flashing in the sky

but there's a charm that is greater still:

when my love's eyes are lowered

when all is fired by passions kiss

 

and through the downcast lashes

I see the dull flame of desire

and through the downcast lashes

I see the dull flame of desire

 

dull flame

i see the full flame of desire

i see the dull flame

i see the full flame

 

I love your eyes, my dear

their splendid, sparkling fire

when suddenly you raise them so

to cast a swift embracing glance

 

like lightning flashing in the sky

but there's a charm that is greater still:

when my love's eyes are lowered

when all is fired by passions kiss

 

and through the downcast lashes

I see the dull flame of desire

through the downcast lashes

I see the dull flame of desire

 

dull flame

i see the full flame of

i see the dull flame

i see the full flame

 

I love your eyes, my dear

their splendid, sparkling fire

when suddenly you raise them so

to cast a swift embracing glance

 

like lightning flashing in the sky

but there's a charm that is greater still:

when my love's eyes are lowered

when all is fired by passions kiss

 

through the downcast lashes

I see the dull flame of desire

and through the downcast lashes

I see the dull flame of desire

 

and through the

downcast lashes

I see the

dull flame

of

desire

[Ninty 182]

Calza, who're those lyrics by? what's the song?

[killthenet]

Its Dull Flame Of Desire by Bjork.

[Ellmeister]

You've got a date with me, could be tonight, it could be years.

[Guest bluey]

"Oi Lienda

Bella che fa? (italian ~ "hey beautiful, what's up?")

Bonita, bonita que tal? (spanish ~ "hey beautiful, whats up?")

But belle

Je ne comprends pas

français (french ~ "but beautiful, i dont understand french..")

So you'll have to speak to me

Some other way~"

[Ninty 182]

This is an amazing song, using a similar melody as 'To Ramona' by Bob Dylan. Due to the way it's sung it was hard to make out some lyrics but these are pretty much correct.

 

It Cuts on Either Side

 

well let me tell y' baby

y' got me 3 miles down

an' 3 miles underground.

My head was lost is a guillotine machine

and my body ain't never been found

when y' lose what y' got

y' don't get what y' need;

y' feel like you outta recieve

when I hear the lies and learn the facts

it cuts like a double axe

 

Well let me tell y' baby

that in this world

there's too many people to like.

They lie and decieve an they multiply

but they don't get satisfied.

We kiss the dirt,

We all get hurt,

our brain's anethetised.

'Cus you my love are a mindless slut

and you cut on either side

 

Well the world's gettin' smaller

with nowhere t' crawl up

and no one can quite be alone.

I can't worship success when I know that it's less

an I can't believe your sacred tone.

With glitter an' baubles

y' say that I outta

But I don't quite believe,

and now that I see you I wish that I couldn't

and my heart is startin' t' bleed

 

Well this is the age

of the young

they're out there havin' their fun.

This is the age of the sophisticated

and the worst hasn't even begun.

We're made t' buy

what we don't need,

We're forced to scrape an believe.

But when my mind it comes to the facts

it cuts like a double axe

 

Well the world don't seem fair,

it don't seem right,

y' say you don't want t' fight.

But the schoolyard bully will knock y' down

and flex with all his might.

Well man is a bully

born and bred,

he'll kick you in the head,

and when y' crawl upon the floor

he'll bury you as dead

 

Well let me tell y' baby

that what you lack

is the will t' kill and attack.

No-one's your kind and you lost your mind

watchin' someone elses back.

You don't seem t' evolve,

you feel your world will dissolve.

Stop. Dead in your tracks.

Cus when y' die they'll hear y' cry

an it'll cut like a double axe

 

'Cus when my mind it comes to the facts

it cuts like a double axe

Rie Fu - Life Is Like A Boat

 

Nobody knows who I really am

I never felt this empty before

and if I ever need someone to come along,

Who's gonna comfort me and keep me strong?

 

We are all rowing the boat of fate

The waves keep on coming and we can't escape

But if we ever get lost on our way

The waves would guide you through another day

 

tooku de iki o shiteru toomei ni natta mitai

kurayami ni omoe dakedo mekaku shisareteta dake

 

inori wo sasagete atarashii hi wo matsu

asayaka ni hikaru umi sono hate made

 

Nobody knows who I really am

Maybe they just don't give a damn

But if I ever need someone to come along

I know you would follow me, and keep me strong

 

hito no kokoro wa utsuriyuku mukedashitaku naru

tsuki wa mada atarashii shuuki de mune wo tsureteku

 

And every time I see your face

The oceans heave up to my heart

You make me wanna strain at the oars

And soon I can see the shore

 

Oh, I can see the shore

When will I see the shore?

 

I want you to know who I really am

I never thought I'd feel this way towards you

And if you ever need someone to come along,

I will follow you, and keep you strong

 

tabi wa mada tsuzuiteku odayakana hi mo

tsuki wa mata atarashii shuuki de ume wo terashidasu

 

inori wo sasagete atarashii hi wo matsu

asayaka ni hikaru umi sono hate made

 

And every time I see your face

The oceans heave up to my heart

You make me wanna strain at the oars

And soon I can see the shore

 

Unmei no hune oko gi

nami wa tsugi kara tsukie to

watashi-tachi wo sou kedo

Sore mo suteki na tabi ne

dore mo suteki na tabi ne

 

 

Some of you will recognise this as the first closing theme to Bleach. It's a freaking beautiful song!

[D_prOdigy]

Come quietly to the camp. You'd look nice as a drawstring lamp.

[jayseven]

a thousand lifetimes could not explain, if all the forest trees were pens and all the oceans, ink.

[Slaggis]

Never win first place, I don't support the team

I can't take direction, and my socks are never

clean

Teachers dated me, my parents hated me

I was always in a fight cuz I can't do nothin'

right

 

Everyday I fight a war against the mirror

I can't take the person starin' back at me

I'm a hazard to myself

 

Don't let me get me

I'm my own worst enemy

Its bad when you annoy yourself

So irritating

Don't wanna be my friend no more

I wanna be somebody else

 

I wanna be somebody else, yeah

 

LA told me, "You'll be a pop star,

All you have to change is everything you are."

Tired of being compared to damn Britney Spears

She's so pretty, that just ain't me

 

Doctor, doctor won't you please prescribe

somethin

A day in the life of someone else?

Cuz I'm a hazard to myself

 

Don't let me get me

I'm my own worst enemy

Its bad when you annoy yourself

So irritating

Don't wanna be my friend no more

I wanna be somebody else

 

Don't let me get me

I'm my own worst enemy

Its bad when you annoy yourself

So irritating

Don't wanna be my friend no more

I wanna be somebody else

 

Doctor, doctor won't you please prescribe

somethin

A day in the life of someone else?

Don't let me get me

 

Don't let me get me

I'm my own worst enemy

Its bad when you annoy yourself

So irritating

Don't wanna be my friend no more

I wanna be somebody else

Natch.

Can't think of no Cinematical.

 

I didn't think it through.

I wish

I was someone better

[Paj!]

Not 'til you halo all over me

I'll come over

Not 'til it shimmers 'round your skull

I'll be yours

 

I weave for you

The marvellous web

Glow in the dark threads

All Neon Like

 

The cocoon surrounds you

Embraces all

So you can sleep

Foetus-style

 

And they will assist us

'Cause we're asking for help

And the luminous beam

It feeds you,

Henh-yeah!, henh-yeah

All Neon Like - Bjork

[Dante]

The Automatic - Steve McQueen

 

Can't put my finger on what's changed

To my surprise I found everything the same

In a house that's not quite home

Nothing was missing but something had gone

 

I hadn't seen my reflection in a while

I tried to know directions for miles

So I took a walk through town

To see if someone moved the streets around

 

I was a teenage Steve McQueen

My best performance escaping

I was a teenage Steve McQueen

My best performance escaped me

 

The engine was running but I couldn't get away

Part of the scenery; no reason to stay

All my pictures have been erased

Just an extra with nothing to say

 

I wrote myself into a new storyline

This part was different, this time it was mine

Now I'm lost in my own town

It seems like someone moved the streets around

 

I was a teenage Steve McQueen

My best performance escaping

I was a teenage Steve McQueen

My best performance escaped me

 

Everything just as I left it

But it wasn't me who left it

The position had been filled

 

Everything just as I left it

But it wasn't me who left it

The position had been filled

 

I'm just chasing, just chasing, just chasing my tail

I'm just chasing, just chasing, just chasing my tail

I'm just

Trying to

Catch up

With myself

Trying to

Catch up with myself

Trying to

Catch up with myself

Trying to

Catch up with myyy

Self

 

I was a teenage Steve McQueen

My best performance escaping

I was a teenage Steve McQueen

My best performance escaped me

 

Everything just as I left it

But it wasn't me who left it

The position had been filled

 

Everything just as I left it

But it wasn't me who left it

The position had been filled

 

I was a teenage Steve McQueen

My best performance escaped me

I was a teenage Steve McQueen

My best performance escaping

Father Lucifer by Tori Amos

 

*These 3 sections are layered over one another*

 

 

TORI

Hey... yes...

Every day's my wedding day.

Though baby's still in his comatose state.

I'll die my own Easter eggs.

Just don't go yet, just don't go.

And Beenie lost the sunset but that's okay.

Does Joe bring flowers to Marilyn's grave?

And girls that eat pizza and never gain weight,

Never gain weight, never gain weight...

 

SECOND TORI

Go away, world don't leave glass, Gorgie.

Can not faye red skiddly dee.

And I'm, gee yes, never go,

Go so fast... go away down.

Lee glass Gorgie's well.

Your faye red there she goes,

And she goes and she goes.

 

BACKGROUND TORIS

Maybe she's hiding in a hotdog.

Got a pig hiding in a truffle.

Wearing those purple garters.

And girl I got a condo in Hoboken.

[Ninty 182]

That's Not Me

 

I had to prove that I could make it alone, now, but that's not me

I wanted to show how independent I'd grown, now, but that's not me.

I could try to be big in the eyes of the world

What matters to me is what I could be to just one girl

 

I'm a little bit scared 'cause I haven't been home in a long time.

You needed my love and I know that I left at the wrong time

 

My folks when I wrote them told 'em what I was up to said that's not me

I went through all kinds of changes took a look at myself and said that's not me.

I miss my pad and the places I've known,

And every night as I lay there alone I would dream

 

I once had a dream so I packed up and split for the city

I soon found out that my lonely life wasn't so pretty

I'm glad I went now I'm that much more sure that we're ready

 

I once had a dream so I packed up and split for the city

I soon found out that my lonely life wasn't so pretty

Serenity - Reduced To Nothingness

 

I’ve just found my Tanelorn

My task is done, my quest complete

But some things seem strange, unreal

Dearest wish and clearest vision

Form the sea I navigate

I shun the cliffs of consciousness

 

In the deep where fire leaps up to become the shape of all that you fear

Know the gate to glorious fates never seen in this life.

So I fall…

 

…in other worlds on deeper plains

I’m coming through again

Forlorn in the never

When I rise to awake

And regain consciousness

Then all is reduced to nothingness

 

There are times I can’t believe

I crossed the line because I see

These dreams of despair they are real

 

In the deep where fire leaps up to become the shape of all that you fear

Know the gate to glorious fates never seen in this life.

So I fall…

 

…in other worlds on deeper plains

I’m coming through again

Forlorn in the never

When I rise to awake

And regain consciousness

Then all is reduced to nothingness

 

Caught in the gravity of the non-dreaming world

I suffer from the incapacity to create a future that never was

 

Someone in the multiverse is dreaming your reality

Imagine he could be the one who lives your dreams.

Connecting, interacting on the field of possibilities

Figments of the mind behold divinity.

 

Someone in the multiverse is dreaming your reality

Imagine he could be the one who lives your dreams.

Connecting, interacting on the field of possibilities

Figments of the mind behold divinity.

 

So I fall, unknown fates I see again

I’m coming through again

Forlorn in the never

When I rise to awake

And regain consciousness

Then all is reduced to nothingness

 

…in other worlds on deeper plains

I’m coming through again

Revenge Is Sweeter Than You Ever Were

 

 

I saw it in the news

You told me they were wrong

And I stood up for you

'Cause I believed you were the one

 

You had all the chances in the world

To let me know the truth

What the hell's wrong with you?

 

Are you even listening when I talk to you?

Do you even care what I'm going through?

Your eyes stare and they're staring right through me

You're right there but it's like you never knew me

 

Do you even know how much it hurt,

That you gave up on me to be with her?

Revenge is sweeter than you ever were

 

I'm so mad at you right now

I can't even find the words

And you're on the way down

I can't wait to see you burn

You try to make me hate that girl

When I should be hating you

What the hell's wrong with you?

 

Are you even listening when I talk to you?

Do you even care what I'm going through?

Your eyes stare and they're staring right through me

You're right there but it's like you never knew me

 

Do you even know how much it hurt,

That you gave up on me to be with her?

Revenge is sweeter than you ever were

(than you ever were)

Revenge is sweeter than you ever were

 

Nothing can save you now that it's over

I guess that you'll find out when you're no one

Don't say you're sorry now 'cause I just don't care

 

Nothing can save you now, nothing

Nothing can save you now, nothing

 

Are you even listening when I talk to you?

Do you even care what I'm going through?

You're eyes stare and they're staring right through me

You're right there but it's like you never knew me

 

Do you even know how much it hurt,

That you gave up on me to be with her?

Revenge is sweeter than you ever were

(than you ever were)

Revenge is sweeter than you ever were

[Paj!]

Some of the most powerful and beautiful lyrics ever.

 

I've seen them kneel

with baited breath for the ritual

I've watched this experience raise

them to pseudo higher levels

I've watched them leave their families

in pursuit of your nirvana

I've seen them coming to line up from switzerland and america

 

How long will this take baba

How long have we been sleeping

Do you see me hanging on to every word you say

How soon will I be holy

How much will this cost guru

How much longer 'til you completely absolve me

 

I've seen them give their drugs up

in place of makeshift altars

I've heard them chanting

kali kali frantically

I've heard them rotely repeatly your

teaching with elitism

I've seen them boasting robes and

foreign sandalwood beads

 

I've seen them overlooking god in

their own essence

I've seen their upward glances

in hopes of instant salvation

i've seen their righteousness

mixed without loving compassion

i've watched you smile as

the student bow to kiss your feet

 

Give me strength all knowing one

how long 'till enlightenment

how much longer 'til you

completely absolve me

 

Ave Maria, Ave Maria, Ave Maria

 

Baba - Alanis Morissette

[Daft]

 

 

Sébastien Tellier - La Ritournelle

 

 

Oh, nothing's gonna change my love for you,

I wanna spend my life with you.

 

So we make love on the grass under the moon,

No one call tell, damned if I do.

 

Forever journey on golden avenues,

I drift in your eyes since I love you.

 

I got that beat in my veins for only rule,

Love is to share, mine is for you.

 

 

 

 

This man is a genius. This has to be the most uplifting and wonderful romantic songs around.

[Slaggis]

Yo check it out I’ve got a plan, here’s my intention

The frat boys in the club are lame, let’s start an altercation

It’s just what I’m used to, just want to fuck shit up

I’ve got my whole damn crew, come on what you gonna do

 

I kissed a boy and they liked it

Got all the honeys in the club excited

I kissed a boy just to start shit

That homeboy was not about it

 

I know it’s wrong, but I don’t mind

I’m gonna start shit tonight

I kissed a boy just to start shit

Bitches just loved it

 

Now you don’t even know my name, it doesn’t matter

Don’t even front, you’ve got no game, you’re just a sucker

So what now, I clowned you, and I’m stealing your girl too

She wants a secure dude, and that’s just not you

 

I kissed a boy and they liked it

Got all the honeys in the club excited

I kissed a boy just to start shit

That homeboy was not about it

 

I know it’s wrong, but I don’t mind

I’m gonna start shit tonight

I kissed a boy just to start shit

Bitches just loved it

 

Me and my bros that’s how we roll, you never know how far we’ll go

I’ll grab some chump that I don’t know

And plant one right on him

You’re only here for our amusement

 

I kissed a boy and they liked it

Got all the honeys in the club excited

I kissed a boy just to start shit

That homeboy was not about it

 

I know it’s wrong, but I don’t mind

I’m gonna start shit tonight

I kissed a boy just to start shit

They just loved it

[Paj!]

That was awful. Probably sounds better put together put to music. I doubt it's seriousness though.

In the lush Virginia hills

they kept her as long as they could.

'Cause they knew when the white brother

found white shell beads

wrapped around her

skin --

A life giving

river --

Her body open as will his hand

and with a 'Goodbye' there she goes...

She may betray

All that she loves

And even wait for their savior to come

And in some things, maybe he'll be right.

But as always the thing that he loves

He will change from her sunrise to clockwise to soul trading

Still she'll lay down her body

Covering him all the same.

 

So hundreds of years go by,

(the red road carved up by sharp knife)

she's a girl out working her trade.

And she loses a little each day

to Ghetto Pimps and Presidents

who try and arouse her turquoise serpents.

She can't recall what they represent

and when you ask, she won't know.

 

She will betray...

 

Oh Virginia

Do you remember

When the land held your hand?

Oh Virginia

She will let you back in?

 

 

Oh Virginia

You can't remember your name.

Virginia by Tori Amos

[gARYgREATIE*]

Tori Amos can go suck my balls, I can't stand anything I've ever heard of hers, and as my ex loved her I have heard far too much. I'll never forgive her for what she did to Slayer. Lyrics wise I love The Silver Jews. Some of my fave snippets are as follows.

 

New Orleans - "There is a house in New Orleans, not the one

you've heard about. I'm talking about another house."

 

Strange Victory, Strange Defeat - "What's with all the handsome grandsons

In these rock band magazines?

And what have they done with the fat ones?

The bald and the goatee'd?"
