A Song For You. (Lyrics Thread)

[devilmunchkin]

no, not really..i was just reminiscing about happier times...well..not happier...but the happiest point in my childhood.

Conviction of the Heart by Kenny Loggins

Where are the dreams that we once had?
This is the time to bring them back.
What were the promises caught on the tips of our tongues?
Do we forget or forgive?
There's a whole other life waiting to be lived when...
One day we're brave enough
To talk with Conviction of the Heart.
And down your streets I've walked alone,
As if my feet were not my own
Such is the path I chose, doors I have opened and closed
I'm tired of living this life,
Fooling myself, believing we're right, when...
I've never given love
With any Conviction of the Heart
One with the earth, with the sky
One with everything in life
I believe we'll survive
If we only try...
How long must we all wait to change
This world bound in chains that we live in
To know what it is to forgive,
And be forgiven?
It's been too many years of taking now.
Isn't it time to stop somehow?
Air that's too angry to breathe, water our children can't drink
You've heard it hundreds of times
You say your aware, believe, and you care, but...
Do you care enough
Where's your conviction of the heart?

[Az]

Can I post a song that feels like I do right now, too?

Stabbing westward/ Shame
If only see myself reflected in your eyes
So all that I believe I am essentially are lies
And everything I've hoped to be or ever thought I
Died with your belief in me so who that hell am I?
I'm wondering 'round confused
Wondering why I try
The more that you deny my pain
The more it intensifies...
I need someone to ache for me the way I ache for you...
If you ignore that I'm alive
I've nothing to cling to
I stare in this mirror
So tired of this life

If only you would speak to me or care if I'm alive
Once I swore I would die for you
But I never meant it like this
I never meant like this
no i never meant like this

I don't know if I'm real without you
What is left of me without you?
I don't know whats real without you
How can I exist without you?

Heat Of The Night
Bryan Adams

I was caught in the crossfire of a silent scream
Where one man's nightmare is another man's dream
Pull the cover up high - and pray for the mornin' light
Cause you're livin' alone - in the heat of the night
Met a man with a message from the other side
Couldn't take the pressure - had to leave it behind
He said it's up to you
You can run or you can fight (Ya that's right)
Better leave it alone - in the heat of the night
In the heat of the night they'll be comin' around
There'll be lookin' for answers they'll be chasin' you down
In the heat of the night
(Where ya gonna hide when it all comes down)
(Don't look back don't ever turn around)
Had to pay the piper to call the tune
Said he'd be back someday - said he'd be back real soon
Pull the shades down low - you'll know when the time is right
When you're lyin' alone in the heat of the night

Avril Lavigne - Things I'll Never Say

I'm tuggin at my hair
I'm pulling at my clothes
I'm trying to keep my cool
I know it shows

I'm staring at my feet
My cheeks are turning red
I'm searching for the words
inside my head

And I'm feeling nervous
Trying to be so perfect
Cause I know you're worth it
You're worth it yeah

If I could say what I want to say
I'd say I want to blow you away
Be with you every night
Am I squeezing you too tight
If I could say what I want to see
I want to see you go down on one knee
Marry me today
Guess I'm wishing my life away
With these things I'll never say

It don't do me any good
It's just a waste of time
What use is it to you
What's on my mind
If it ain't coming out
We're not going anywhere
So why can't I just tell
you that I care

Cause I'm feeling nervous
Trying to be so perfect
Cause I know you're worth it
Worth it yeah

If I could say what I want to say
I'd say I want to blow you away
Be with you every night
Am I squeezing you too tight
If I could say what I want to see
I want to see you go down on one knee
Marry me today
Guess I'm wishing my life away
With these things I'll never say

What's wrong with my tongue
These words keep slipping away
I stutter I stumble like
I've got nothing to say

Cause I'm feeling nervous
Trying to be so perfect
Cause I know you're worth it
Worth it yeah

Route 66
Lambert, Hendricks & Ross


If you ever plan to motor west,
travel my way, take the highway that is best.
Get your kicks on Route sixty-six.

It winds from Chicago to LA,
more than two thousand miles all the way.
Get your kicks on Route sixty-six.

Now you go through Saint Louis, Joplin, Missouri
And Oklahoma City is mighty pretty.
You see Amarillo,Gallup, New Mexico, Flagstaff Arizona.
Don't forget Winona, Kingman, Barstow, San Bernandino.

Won't you get hip to this timely tip,
When you make that California trip
Get your kicks on Route sixty-six.

Won't you get hip to this timely tip:
when you make that California trip
Get your kicks on Route sixty-six.
Get your kicks on Route sixty-six.
Get your kicks on Route sixty-six.

Paul McCartney & Wings - Band On The Run

Stuck inside these four walls, sent inside forever,
Never seeing no one nice again like you,
Mama you, mama you.

If I ever get out of here,
Thought of giving it all away
To a registered charity.
All I need is a pint a day
If I ever get out of here. (If we ever get outta here)

Well, the rain exploded with a mighty crash
As we fell into the sun,
And the first one said to the second one there
I Hope you're having fun.

Band On The Run, Band On The Run.
And The Jailer Man and Sailor Sam were searching every one
For the band on the run, Band on the run,
Band on the run, Band on the run

Well, the undertaker drew a heavy sigh
Seeing no one else had come,
And a bell was ringing in the village square
for the rabbits on the run.

Band On The Run, Band On The Run.
And the Jailer Man and Sailor Sam Were aearching every one
For the band on the run, Band on the run,
Band on the run, Band on the run

Yeah the Band On The Run, Band On The Run,
Band on the run, Band on the run

Well, the night was falling as the desert world
began to settle down.
In The town they're searching for us every where,
but we never w ill be found.

Band On The Run, Band On The Run.
And the county judge, who held a grudge
Will search for evermore

For the Band On The Run, Band on the run,
Band On The Run, Band On The Run

Serpents in Paradise (Avantasia

[Gabriel]
Reading the madness they took her away
under the cross.
Bailiff and bishop and monk -
Malleus Maleficarum - the law

Prayed for salvetion, I fought for her soul -
scared by the horned.
The devil was creeping around
until she died in the flames as he saw.

Father forgive me for I've hardly seen
the human deep within. Just an intention -
so holy and clear - paving the way to madness
for us...

Serpents on the way to paradise -
dying for love, fighting for ages.
Serpents on their way to paradise -
raging with anger and pain for the cross.

[Jakob]
Father forgive me for what I have done.
For I betrayed the one that I loved like a son.
Demons and spells are they reality?

The pest and the schism; the power of the Moor
We've got to fight. Keep our people afraid...
Keep them away from what they shall not see.

I see a menace to our paradise
in these evil times.
Heaves is burning, people are yearning
for a new doctrine, they are...

[Gabriel]
Serpents on the way paradise.

[Jakob]
Don't know they'll end in final damnation.

[Gabriel]
Serpents on the way to paradise...

[Jakob]
Raging with anger and pain against the cross.

[Gabriel]
Lord if I'm an unbeliever - what do I believe?
Can you tell me lord what you had done
if you were me?
I have stared into the eyes
of innocence and fear.
I saw Anna in the tower in a lake of tears.
Something strange is going on and
still I don't know why.
I have stared into the secrets
they still try to hide.

Vandroiy can you tell me what you know about it all?
Vandroiy can you help me
to leave this prison hall?
Vandroiy can you help me
free Anna from the chain?
Vandroiy can you help me
to become a little sane?

Serpents on the way to paradise -
Dying for love, fighting for ages.
Serpents on their way to paradise
Raging with anger and pain...

Demonized

By RUNNING WILD

Modern man is going crazy,
the whole world is going mad
The atmosphere is going hazy,
they loot the world until its dead

The hell of war that rages on,
the law of hate that's everywhere
Falling bombs a billion tons,
plunge the world into dispair

An evil, frightening nightmare
that rules the world until the end
No change and no redemption
will come until the evil's banned

Demonized, the machinery pollutes the air
Demonized, atomic bombs that sow dispair

Politicians rule the lie,
misuse the law to make their pile
Corrupted whores of deepest dye,
they ruin the world, but they keep their smile

An evil, frightening nightmare
that rules the world until the end
No change and no redemption
will come until the evil's banned

Demonized, the machinery pollutes the air
Demonized, atomic bombs that sow dispair

They invade the world with blinded rage
Revealing truth'locked to a cage
War and death their evil seed
They hold their power on dirty deeds

Religious con-men are catching souls,
take the money that's rolling in
They cheat the world to save their goals,
let children die while they pray and sing

An evil, frightening nightmare
that rules the world until the end
No change and no redemption
will come until the evil's banned

Demonized, the machinery pollutes the air
Demonized, atomic bombs that sow dispair
Demonized, corrupted men that pray the lie
Demonized, they save the money let people die

"And that's wrong, you bastards..."

Soleil Royal

By RUNNING WILD

1692, the 29th of May
Sir "Tourville", the admiral, his fleet is on its way
He commands his ships to fight, they attack the British line
He must be caught in senseless pride, to him his honour's prime

His mighty flagship strong and brave, heading for the fight
It pets the british men to grave, cruising through the tide
The veil of night obscures the sea, the tables getting turned
Confusion rules, no chance to flee, his fleet is getting burned

Cannons speak the fatal words, the language of death
Wipes away too many men, takes away their breath

Heat and fire, burning pyre
Smoke and flames, a raging hell
Death and blood, the fatal rub
Blows away "Soleil Royal"

Their position's getting intricate, heading for "Cherbourg"
Desperatly they dare their fate, they feel too much secured
Cannons fire round by round, the smell of acred smoke
Vibrating full from top to ground, shacken by its poke

Cannons speak the fatal words, the language of death
Wipes away too many men, takes away their breath

Heat and fire, burning pyre
Smoke and flames, a raging hell
Death and blood, the fatal rub
Blows away "Soleil Royal"

To cape "Barfleur" they try to flee, the battle's raging hard
Balls of lead rushing the sea, hit the hull windward
The Englishmen hard on their trace, follow turn by turn
A heavy round, the coupe de grace, tearing up its stern

The powder in the storage room, litten by a spark
Bursting kegs, a giant boom, tear the decks apart
The blood spills of the scupperholes, the sea is turning red
No time to pray, no bell to toll, no burial for the dead

Cannons speak the fatal words, the language of death
Wipes away too many men, takes away their breath

Heat and fire, burning pyre
Smoke and flames, a raging hell
Death and blood, the fatal rub
Blows away "Soleil Royal"...

The Mighty Ride Of The Firelord

By RHAPSODY

Cruel Akron bloody bastard I now spit on you
You can turn my bones to black ash but I'll move the moon
I will light your evil kingdom
and your heart will burn in flames
Mutilated or dismembered
we'll soon rise to eat your brain
You will pay for your victims and for Airin's bloody rape
For Arwald my dear friend and all my crying wasted land
I call the rage of my dead
I call the black angels' tears

Also Dargor can't endure all... goes out from the cave
while the demons take the hero for their tragic game
Gods of earth save me from madness
from these rites of total shame
while descending in the red flame
Arwald dies but not in vain
They will pay for this nightmare, for the symphony of pain
For Airin, my dead friend and all my crying wasted land
I call the Tharos' fire
I call the thunder roar

Raise your voice and ride all
ride all brave, raise your sword to the sky
and sing the epic symphony
for the mighty and proud firelord

Arwald's acid broke the silver chains
before his very last breath
Akron laughing really doesn't know what now waits for him...
Gods are raging leading my red steel
heads and limbs are falling down
It's in me the mystic messenger bringer of revenge!

"Black angel, I call you! King Chaos is raging in the torment of my heart...
I call the holy earthquake to end this bloody hell!"

Gods are raging leading my red steel
heads and limbs are falling down
It's in me the mystic messenger bringer of revenge
while she comes, beloved sunlight

On the river known as Aigor
our hero found his way
All the demons desperately
search for him now but in vain
They will pay for this nightmare, for the symphony of pain
For Airin, my dead friend and all my crying wasted land
I call the Tharos' fire
I call the thunder roar

Raise your voice and ride all
ride all brave, raise your sword to the sky
and sing the epic symphony
for the mighty and proud firelord

SWEET CHILD O' MINE
Guns N' Roses

She's got a smile that it seems to me
Reminds me of childhood memories
Where everything
Was as fresh as the bright blue sky
Now and then when I see her face
She takes me away to that
special place
And if I stared too long
I'd probably break down and cry

Sweet child o' mine
Sweet love of mine

She's got eyes of the bluest skies
As if they thought of rain
I hate to look into those eyes
And see an ounce of pain
Her hair reminds me
of a warm safe place
Where as a child I'd hide
And pray for the thunder
And the rain
To quietly pass me by

Sweet child o' mine
Sweet love of mine

Where do we go
Where do we go now
Where do we go
Sweet child o' mine

A New World

By DARK MOOR

Old world has left in starvation and disease
fourteen ninety-two bring a new change to see
Across the ocean the would sail
(following out the dark blaze)
They keep the route with an endless faith

far beyond the earth's edge
they will reach their dreams
as a privilege
sun still spreads out it dreams

With the winds of the sea
always flowing from the east
three boats dare to face
just a will, a belief
which could cross the deep abyss
to discover a new world
saving humanity

suddenly a joyful cry
was heard in the advanced night
the long awaited sight
was seen below the sky

new treasures shine before my eyes
(they're bright like a burning fire)
I will enjoy the eternal sea of life

aventus nautarum in novan terram
argentum aurumque America

but they didn't know
that this virgin ground
was an unknown land that overgrows
new Eden’s found
the lost paradise
Mankind's dawn is beginning to rise

With the winds of the sea
always flowing from the east
three boats dare to face
just a will, a belief
which could cross the deep abyss
to discover a new world
saving humanity

this land is wild
Our boots were defiled
Our dreams will be reality
the native's pain
always in vain
our glory was their agony

But when Columbus told the queen
all the things he'd seen
he had to submit and be agreed
With kingdom's greed

With the winds of the sea
always flowing from the east
three boats dare to face
just a will, a belief
which could cross the deep abyss
to discover a new world
saving humanity

[Drogue]

Idlewild - American English
Songs when the truth are all dedicated to you,
and this invisible world I choose to live in.
And if you believe that then now I understand
why words mean so much to you:
s’they'll never be about you.

And maybe you're young without youth,
or maybe you're old without knowing anything's true,
I think you're young without youth.

Then you contract the American Dream
you never look up once.
And you've contracted American Dreams,
I require you to stop and look up.

Sing a song about myself
keep singing a song about myself,
not some invisible world

Constantly searching to find something new,
but what will you find when you think that nothing's true?
Maybe it's that nothing is new.
So you let me hear songs that were written all about you
The good of songs were written for you,
they'll never be about you.

Then you contract the American Dream
you never look up once.
And you've contracted American Dreams,
you never look up once so don’t look up.

Sing a song about myself
keep singing a song about myself,
not some invisible world.

Sing a song about myself
keep singing a song about myself,
not some invisible world.

And I won't tell you what this means
'cause you already know
And I won't tell you what this means
'cause you already know

So sing a song about myself
keep singing a song about myself,
not some invisible world.

You'll find what you'll find when you find there's nothing.
You'll find what you'll find when you find there's nothing.

Spiritualized - Ladies And Gentlemen We Are Floating In Space
Ladies and gentlemen we are floating in space
All I want in life's a little bit of love
To take the pain away
Getting strong today
A giant step each day
All I want in life's a little bit of love
To take the pain away
Getting strong today
A giant step each day

I've been told
Only fools rush in
Only fools rush in
But I don't believe
I don't believe
I could still fall in love with you

I will love you till I die
And I will love you all the time
So please put your sweet hand in mine
And float in space and drift in time
All the time until I die
We'll float in space, just you and I
And I will love you till I die
And I will love you all the time
So please put your sweet hand in mine
And float in space and drift in time
All the time until I die
We'll float in space, just you and I

Baby I love you today
I guess that's what you want
And I don't know where we are all going
Life don't get stranger than this
It is what it is
And I don't know where we are all going
I will love you till I die
And I will love you all the time

Everything happens today
And we're out here in space
And I don't know where we are all going
Baby I love you today
I guess that's what you want
And I don't know where we are all going.

Idlewild - In Remote Part/Scottish Fiction
in the beginning there were answers
then they came along and changed
all these questions and there answers seemed to change

so ill wait ‘til i find the remote part of your heart
for nowhere else will let us choose a comfortable start

we stop in every passing place to watch the world move faster than we do
watch it pass with out eyes closed the way we usually choose to

so ill wait ‘til i find the remote part of your heart
for nowhere else will let us choose a comfortable start
and even if the breath between us smells of alcohol
we call it confusion in the best way possible

it isn’t in the mirror
it isn’t on the page
it's a red hearted vibration
pushing through the walls of dark imagination
finding no equation
there’s a red road rage but its not road rage
its asylum seekers engulfed by a grudge
Scottish friction, Scottish fiction

it isn’t in the castle
it isn’t in the mist
its a calling of the waters as they break
to show you the new black death
with reactors aglow
you think your security
can keep you in purity
you will not shake it off
above or below
Scottish friction, Scottish fiction

Time Stands Still (At The Iron Hill)

By BLIND GUARDIAN

Light fails at dawn
The moon is gone
And deadly the night reigns

Deceit

Finally I've found myself
In these lands
Horror and madness I've seen here
For what I became a king of the lost?
Barren and lifeless the land lies

Lord of all Noldor
A star in the night
And a bearer of hope
He rides into his glorious battle alone
Farewell to the valiant warlord

The Fate of us all
Lies deep in the dark
When time stands still at the iron hill

I stand alone
Noone's by my side
I'll dare you
Come out
You coward
Now it's me or you

Lord of all Noldor
A star in the night
And a bearer of hope
He rides into his glorious battle alone
Farewell to the valiant warlord

The Fate of us all
Lies deep in the dark
When time stands still at the iron hill

He gleams like a star
And the sound of his horn's
Like a raging storm
Proudly the high lord
Challenges the doom
Lord of slaves he cries

Slowly in fear
The dark lord appears
Welcome to my lands
You shall be damned

Lord of all Noldor
A star in the night
And a bearer of hope
He rides into his glorious battle alone
Farewell to the valiant warlord

The Fate of us all
Lies deep in the dark
When time stands still at the iron hill

The iron crowned
Is getting closer
Swings his hammer
Down on him
Like a thunderstorm
He's crushing
Down the Noldor's
Proudest king

Under my foot
So hopeless it seems
You've troubled my day
Now feel the pain

Lord of all Noldor
A star in the night
And a bearer of hope
He rides into his glorious battle alone
Farewell to the valiant warlord

The Fate of us all
Lies deep in the dark
When time stands still at the iron hill

The Elvenking's broken
He stumbles and falls
The most proud and most valiant
His spirit survives
Praise our king
Praise our king
Praise our king
Praise our king

Everything Ends by Slipknot

You are wrong ****ed and overrated

I haven't slept since I woke up
And found my whole life was a lie, mother****er
This is the end of everything
YOU ARE THE END OF EVERYTHING

Shallow skin, I can paint with pain
I mark the trails on my arms with your disdain
Everyday it's the same - I LOVE, YOU HATE
But I guess I don't care anymore...
Fix my problems with the blade
While my eyes turn from blue to gray
God, the worst thing happened to me today
But I guess I don't care anymore

This is the end of everything
You are the end of EVERYTHING

My flaws are the only thing left that's pure
Can't really live, can't really endure
Everything I see reminds me of her
God I wish I didn't care anymore
The more I touch, the less I feel
I'm lying to myself that it's not real
Why is everybody making such a big ****ing deal?
I'm never gonna care anymore

You are wrong, ****ed, and overrated
I think I'm gonna be sick and it's your fault

This is the end of EVERYTHING
You are the end of EVERYTHING

What the hell am I doing?
Is there anyone left in my life?
What the **** was I thinking?
Anybody want to tell me I'm fine?
Where the hell am I going?
Do I even need a reason to hide?
I am only betrayed
I am only conditioned to DIE!

You are wrong, ****ed and overrated

YOU ARE THE END OF EVERYTHING

Cold Reader by Stone Sour

I… can only hurt your case

You always come to me
I won't be used, but…
I - can't fight you anymore
I know I'll open up the door, oh…

NO! I WON'T! I CAN'T! NOT ANYMORE!
ONE MORE TIME AND I THINK I'LL ****ING DIE!
WHY? DO I ALWAYS HAVE TO SUFFER THE CONSEQUENCES?

Stay… Away from who I am
Cuz I know what you are
I can't believe you're here
Then again, you know that…

I - can't fight you anymore
I know I'll open up my soul, oh…

NO! I WON'T! I CAN'T! NOT ANYMORE!
ONE MORE TIME AND I THINK I'LL ****ING DIE!

Lovesong by Sky

Your brothers they all think I'm crazy
I think it's nothing at all
Today I'm feeling kinda lazy
So I'll be sleeping it off
Once again
It's kinda like a love song
"crazy old fashioned love song"

Chorus
Then she decides that the dogs they belong inside
It's a never ending ride you're taking
I can decide for you hey
It's kinda like a love song

The party's happening somewhere else babe
Here there is nothing at all
Someday I'll be somebody's love slave
For now I've got me all to myself
It's kinda like a love song
"crazy old fashioned love song"

We think he's alive but the flies make me wonder why
It's a never ending pile I'm raking
Chester's beside you and he's
Singing you a love song

And while you're finding your way home
Me I'll be watching me a t.v. show
And if the darkness is all you see
Well then you dont' know what your missing
And it's kinda like a love song
