Nine Inch Nails - Hurt

i hurt myself today
to see if i still feel
i focus on the pain
the only thing that's real
the needle tears a hole
the old familiar sting
try to kill it all away
but i remember everything

what have i become?
my sweetest friend
everyone i know
goes away in the end
you could have it all
my empire of dirt
i will let you down
i will make you hurt

i wear this crown of ****
upon my liar's chair
full of broken thoughts
i cannot repair
beneath the stains of time
the feelings disappear
you are someone else
i am still right here

what have i become?
my sweetest friend
everyone i know
goes away in the end
and you could have it all
my empire of dirt
i will let you down
i will make you hurt

if i could start again
a million miles away
i would keep myself
i would find a way




Smashing Pumpkins - Mayonaise

Fool enough to almost be it
Cool enough to not quite see it
Doomed
Pick your pockets full of sorrow
And run away with me tomorrow
June

We'll try and ease the pain
But somehow we'll feel the same
Well, no one knows
Where our secrets go

I send a heart to all my dearies
When your life is so, so dreary
Dream
I'm rumored to the straight and narrow
While the harlots of my perils
Scream

And I fail
But when I can, I will
Try to understand
That when I can, I will

Mother weep the years I'm missing
All our time can't be given
Back
Shut my mouth and strike the demons
That cursed you and your reasons
Out of hand and out of season
Out of love and out of feeling
So bad

When I can, I will
Words defy the plan
When I can, I will

Fool enough to almost be it
And cool enough to not quite see it
And old enough to always feel this
Always old, I'll always feel this

No more promise no more sorrow
No longer will I follow
Can anybody hear me
I just want to be me
When I can, I will
Try to understand
That when I can, I will


Nine Inch Nails - Sin

you give me the reason
you give me control
i gave you my Purity
my Purity you stole
did you think i wouldn't recognize
this compromise
am i just too stupid to realize
stale incense old sweat
and lies lies lies

it comes down to this
your kiss
your fist
and your strain
it gets under my skin
within
take in
the extent of my sin

you give me the anger
you give me the nerve
carry out my sentence
will i get what i deserve
i'm just an effigy to be disgraced
to be defaced
your need for me has been replaced
and if i can't have everything
well then just give me a taste

it comes down to this
your kiss
your fist
and your strain
it gets under my skin
within
take in
the extent of my sin

you give me the reason
you give me control
i gave you my Purity
my Purity you stole
did you think i wouldn't recognize
this compromise
am i just too stupid to realize
stale incense old sweat
and lies lies lies

it comes down to this
your kiss
your fist
and your strain
it gets under my skin
within
take in
well my sin
it comes down to this
your kiss
your fist
and your strain
it gets under my skin
within
take in
the extent of my sin


Smashing Pumpkins - Quiet

Quiet
I am sleeping
in here
We need a little hope

For years
I've been sleeping
Helpless
Couldn't tell a soul

Be ashamed
Of the mess you've made
My eyes never forget, you see
Behind me

Silent
Metal mercies
Castrate
Boys to the bone

Jesus
Are you listening?
Up there
To anyone at all

We are the fossils
The relics of our time
We mutilate the meanings
So they're easy to deny

Be ashamed
Of the mess you've made
My eyes never forget, you see
Behind me

Quiet
I am sleeping
Quiet
I am sleeping
Quiet
I don't trust you
I can't hear you

Be ashamed
Of the mess you've made
My eyes never forget, you see
Behind me

Behind me
The grace of falling snow
Cover up everything you know
Come save me from the awful sound
Of nothing

Darkseed - Autumn (from Giving In To Darkness)

My heart is crushed
It´s lying there and growing cold
Summer´s sunset falls
Sunlight flees away
and dews of night arise

Rainy autumn moves my heart
Flowers welking welk my joy

Clouds come rolling over
they depress me, overrun me
They overshadow my heart
Autumn comes apace,
a last warm glance sighing to me
Now grey vails between the earth and sea

Birdless branches in the wind
Leaves they found their death in coldness
Naked trees in the frost of night
yearning for the sun again and again

Waters laying still in transparent fog
Lakes of blue covered with ice
to sleep their winter-sleep

 

[Snipeo]

Darkseed - I Deny You (From Giving In To Darkness)

Would You like to go for a walk?
Essential for You...
May I introduce You to my words:

Small amusements give You joy
You don´t think about it´s sense
stupid guy...

I deny You, I despise You
You´re the one ´bout whom I laugh
Go to hell now, get a move on!
Follow my advice!
I deny You, I despise You
You´re the one whom I regret
Go to hell now, get a move on!
I´ll show You, go to hell!

Truth it has no value for You
You keep up appearances
Shut Your gob, now I am talking!
A fat lot You know about the truth

Now our ways will seperate forever
Forget my words and live the world
You live Now it´s time to say good-bye to You
Walk Your path again and keep a fool!

Creed - Human Clay - Higher

When dreaming I'm guided to another world
Time and time again
At sunrise I fight to stay asleep
'Cause I don't want to leave the comfort of this place
'Cause there's a hunger, a longing to escape
From the life I live when I'm awake
So let's go there
Let's make our escape
Come on, let's go there
Let's ask can we stay?

Can you take me higher?
To a place where blind men see
Can you take me higher?
To a place with golden streets

Although I would like our world to change
It helps me to appreciate
Those nights and those dreams
But, my friend, I'd sacrifice all those nights
If I could make the Earth and my dreams the same
The only difference is
To let love replace all our hate
So let's go there
Let's make our escape
Come on, let's go there
Let's ask can we stay?

Can you take me higher?
To a place where blind men see
Can you take me higher?
To a place with golden streets

So let's go there
Let's go there
Come on, let's go there
Let's ask can we stay?

Up high I feel like I'm alive for the very first time
Up high I'm strong enough to take these dreams
And make them mine

Still up high I'm strong enough to take these dreams
And make them mine

Can you take me higher?
To a place where blind men see
Can you take me higher?
To a place with golden streets
Can you take me higher?
To a place where blind men see
Can you take me higher?
To a place with golden streets

Burbujas de amor

Tengo un corazon
motivado de esperanza y de pasion
tengo un corazon
que madruga donde quiera
Ay ay ay...!
este corazon se desnuda
de impasiencia ante tu voz
pobre corazon
que no atrapa su cordura.
Quisiera ser un pez
para tocar mi nariz en tu pecera
y hacer burbujas de amor
por donde quiera oh! oh!
pasar la noche entera
mojado en ti...!
Un pez...para bordar
de corales tu cintura
y hacer siluetas de amor
bajo la luna...oh! oh!
saciar esta locura...
mojado en ti!
Ahh! Ahh! Ahh!
canta corazon
con un ancla impresindible
de ilusion
suenia corazon no te nubles de amargura.
Ay, Ay, Ay!
este corazon
se desnuda de impasiencia
ante tu voz
pobre corazon...!
que no atrapa su cordura.
Quisiera ser un pez
para tocar con mi nariz en tu pecera
y hacer burbujas de amor
por donde quiera...oh! oh!
pasar la noche envela
mojado en ti...!
Un pez... para bordar
de callenas tu cintura
y hacer siluetas de amor
bajo la luna...oh! oh!
vaciar esta locura
mojado en ti! Una noche...
para undirnos hasta el fin
cara a cara, beso a beso
y vivir por siempre...
mojado en ti!

Slayer - God Hates Us All - Disciple

Drones since the dawn of time
Compelled to live your sheltered lives
Not once has anyone ever seen
Such a rise of pure hypocracy
I'll instigate I'll free your mind
I'll show you what I've known all this time

God Hates Us All, God Hates Us All
You know it's true God hates this place
You know it's true he hates this race

Homicide-Suicide
Hate heals, you should try it sometime
Strive for Peace with acts of war
The beauty of death we all adore
I have no faith distracting me
I know why your prayers will never be answered

God Hates Us All; God Hates Us All
He ****in' hates me

Pessimist, Terrorist targeting the next mark
Global chaos feeding on hysteria
Cut throat, slit your wrist, shoot you in the back fair game
Drug abuse, self abuse searching for the next high
Sounds a lot like hell is spreading all the time
I'm waiting for the day the whole world ****ing dies

I never said I wanted to be God's disciple
I'll never be the one to blindly follow

Man made virus infecting the world
Self-destruct human time bomb
What if there is no God would you think the ****in' same
Wasting your life in a leap of blind faith
Wake the **** up can't ignore what I say
I got my own philosophy

I hate everyone equally
You can't tear that out of me
No segregation -separation
Just me in my world of enemies

I never said I wanted to be God's disciple
I'll never be the one to blindly follow
I'll never be the one to bear the cross-disciple

I reject this ****in' race
I despise this ****in' place

Slayer - God Hates Us All - God Send Death

On your back look on to me
You'll see genocide
Face from death more than insane
Profane pleading cries
Watch you die inside watch you die

God send death end misery
Preach no love of ministry
Pray for sin a shattered faith
Down on your knees
Your screaming out to die

Death is over due
Nothing can save you
A morbid symphony
Hearing you lie there screaming
Taking life from you
Is all I wanna do
Desire so deranged
This is what lives inside me

Putrid blood flows through my veins
To thrive on demise
Voyeurs' lust watching the pain
Touching you inside
Bleed you ****ing dry
Bleed on me

Death's design blood splattered wall
Face melting one vicious whore
Twisted figures flesh from bone
Down on your knees
Your screaming out
To die

Death is overdue
Nothing can save you
A morbid symphony
Hearing you lie there screaming
Taking life from you
Is all I wanna do
Desire so deranged
This is what lives inside me

Clawing at the eyes of god
You taste your death in hand
Your fingers bleed in vain
Your scream-in your grave
Clawing at the eyes of god
You pierce your throat and hands
You've gone insane with pain
Your blind screaming for your god
Pathetic god

Death's design blood splattered wall
Face melting one vicious whore
Twisted figures
Drown your mind in pain

Slayer - Seasons In The Abyss - Dead Skin Mask

Graze the skin with my finger tips
The brush of dead cold flesh pacifies the means
Provocative images delicate features so smooth
A pleasant fragrance in the light of the moon
Dance with the dead in my dreams
Listen to their hallowed screams
The dead have taken my soul
Temptation's lost all control
Simple smiles elude psychotic eyes
Lose all mind control rationale declines
Empty eyes enslave the creations
Of placid faces and lifeless pageants
In the depths of a mind insane
Fantasy and reality are the same
Graze the skin with my finger tips
The brush of dead warm flesh pacifies the means
Incised members ornaments on my being
Adulating the skin before me
Simple smiles elude psychotic eyes
Lose all mind control rationale declines
Empty eyes enslave the creations
Of placid faces and lifeless pageants

Creed - Weathered - Freedom Fighter

The mouths of envious
Always find another door
While at the gates of paradise
They beat us down some more
But our mission’s set in stone
‘Cause the writing’s on the wall
I’ll scream it from the mountain tops
Pride comes before a fall

So many thoughts to share
All this energy to give
Unlike those who hide the truth
I tell it like it is
If the truth will set you free
I feel sorry for your soul
Can’t you hear the ringing ‘cause
For you the bell tolls

I’m just a freedom fighter
No remorse
Raging on in holy war
Soon there’ll come a day
When you’re face to face with me
Face to face with me

Can’t you hear us coming?
People marching all around
Can’t you see we’re coming?
Close your eyes it’s over now
Can’t you hear us coming?
The fight has only just begun
Can’t you see we’re coming?

I’m just a freedom fighter
No remorse
Raging on in holy war
Soon there’ll come a day
When you’re face to face with me
Freedom fighter
No remorse
Raging on in holy war
Soon there’ll come a day
When you’re face to face with
Face to face with
Face to face with me

They rally round tha family! With a pocket full of shells
They rally round tha family! With a pocket full of shells
They rally round tha family! With a pocket full of shells

Weapons not food, not homes, not shoes
Not need, just feed the war cannibal animal
I walk tha corner to tha rubble that used to be a library
Line up to tha mind cemetary now
What we don't know keeps tha contracts alive an movin'
They don't gotta burn tha books they just remove 'em
While arms warehouses fill as quick as tha cells
Rally round tha family, pockets full of shells

Rally round tha family! With a pocket full of shells
They rally round tha family! With a pocket full of shells

Rage Against The Machine - Vietnow


Turn on tha radio, nah **** it turn it off
Fear is your only god on the radio
Nah **** it, turn it off
Turn it off, turn on tha radio, nah **** it turn it off
Fear is your only god on the radio
Nah **** it, your saviour's my guillotine, crosses and kerosene

Merge on tha networks, slangin' nerve gas
Up jump tha boogie then bang, let 'em hang
While tha paraniod try ta stuff tha void
Let's capture this AM mayhem
Undressed, and blessed by tha Lord
Tha power pendulum swings by tha umbilical cord
Shock around tha clock, from noon 'til noon
Men grabbin' they mics, and stuff 'em into tha womb
Terror's tha product ya push
Well I'm a truth addict, oh **** I gotta headrush
Sheep tremble an here come tha votes
Thrown from tha throat, new cages an scapegoats
Undressed and blessed by tha Lord
Tha same devil that ran around Managua wit a sword
Check out tha new style that Ollie found
I tune in wit a bullet ta shut down tha devil sound
Shut down tha devil sound
Tha program of Vietnow
Shut down tha devil sound

Turn on the radio, nah **** it turn it off
Fear is your only god on the radio
Nah **** it, turn it off
Turn it off, turn on the radio, nah **** it turn it off
Fear is your only god on the radio
Nah **** it, your saviour's my guillotine, crosses and kerosene

Flex tha cerebellum, fire, uh!
Somebody gotta shell 'em
These evil angels lists, hittin' tha AM playlist
Paid ta say this
That one inhuman, illegal, single woman
Tha one wit out a room
The transmissions wippin' our backs
Yeah, comin' down like bats from Stacy Coon
Terror's tha product ya push
Well I'm a truth addict, oh **** I gotta headrush
Tha sheep tremble an here come tha votes
Thrown from tha throat, new cages and scapegoats
One caution tha mics a detonator unwound
Ta shut down tha devil sound
Shut down tha devil sound
Check tha heads bow in vietnow
Shut down tha devil sound

Is all tha world jails and churches?
Is all tha world jails and churches?

Rage Against The Machine - Roll Right

Lick off the shot my stories shock ya like Ellison
Main line adrenaline Gaza to Tienanmen
From the basement I'm dwellin' in
I cock back tha sling to stone a settler
And breaks him off clean, call me the upsetter
Here comes the hands on the leashes
The cross, the capital, the pale families, the fear and the mouthpieces
The single sista lynch
The cell doors crash
And the master's drums echo, echo, echo, echo, echo, echo
Roll right! Roll call!
But now we're alright, we're all calm!
Roll right! Roll call!
And now we're alright, we're all calm!

This hits like fists bomb with the left and don't miss
With the sickest stilo I spark fear like pigs in the park
Head crack, I hijack the papers
The vapors caught fire up in your mind
Come back rewind one time
Here comes the hands on the leashes
The cross, the capital, the pale families, the fear and the mouthpieces
The single sista lynch
The cell doors crash
And the master's drums echo, echo, echo, echo, echo, echo
Roll right! Roll call!
But now we're alright, we're all calm!
Roll right! Roll call!

We gotta take 'em to tha seventh level
We gotta take 'em to tha seventh level
For their lives and my lives were never settled
Come on, don't freeze when zero hour comes
Come on, come on, don't freeze when zero hour comes
Come on

Send 'em to tha seventh level!
Send 'em to tha seventh level!
Send 'em to tha seventh level!
Send 'em to tha seventh level!
For their lives and my lives were never settled

System of a Down - Toxicity - Aerials

life is a waterfall
we're one in the river
and one again after the fall
swimming through the void
we hear the word
we lost ourselves
but we find it all
cause we are the ones that want to play
always want to go
but you never want to stay
and we are the ones that want to choose
always want to play
but you never want to lose
aerials in the sky
when you lose small mind
you free your life
life is a waterfall
we drink from the river
then we turn around and put up our walls
swimming through the void
we hear the word
we lost ourselves
but we find it all
cause we are the ones that want to play
always want to go
but you never want to stay
and we are the ones that want to choose
always want to play
but you never want to lose
aerials, in the sky
when you lose small mind
you free your life
aerials, so up high
when you free your eyes
eternal prize
aerials, in the sky
when you lose small mind
you free your life
aerials, so up high
when you free your eyes
eternal prize........

Incubus - Morning View - Echo

there's something about the look in you eyes,
something i noticed when the light was just right.
it reminded me twice that i was alive,
and it reminded me that you're so worth the fight.

my biggest fear will be the
rescue of me...strange how
it turns out that way

could you show me, dear...something i've not
seen? something infinitely interesting.

there's something about the way you move,
i see your mouth in slow motion when you sing.
more subtle than, something someone contrives,
your movements echo that i've seen the real thing.

your biggest fear will be the rescue of you,
it's strange how it turns out that way

could you show me, dear...something i've not
seen? something infinitely interesting.

Incubus - Morning View - Aqueous Transmission

I'm floating down a river,
oars freed from their holes long ago.
lying face up on the floor of my vessel
i marvel at the stars
and feel my heart overflow

two weeks without my lover
i am in this boat alone
floating down a river named emotion
will i make it back to shore?
or drift into the unknown?

i'm building an antenna
transmissions will be sent when i'm through.
maybe we'll me again further down the river,
and share what we both discovered...
then revel in the view



this song is actually almost 8 minutes long

Hoobustank/Hoobastank - Hoobastank - Running Away

i don't want you to give it all up an dleave your own
life collecting dust. and i don't want you to feel sorry for me.
you never gave us a chance to be. and i don't need you to be
by my side to tell me that everything's alright. i just wanted you
to tell me the truth. you know i'd do that for you.

chorus
Why are you running away..

cause i did enough to show you that i was willing to
give and sacrifice. and i was the one who was lifting you up
when you thought your life had had enough. and when i get
close you turn away. there's nothing that i can do or say. so now
i need you to tell me the truth. you know i'd do that for you.

why are you running away...


is it me? is it you? nothing that i can do to make you
change your mind. is it me? is it you? nothing that i can do. is
it a waste of time?

so why are you running away? what is it i have to
say to make you admit you're afraid? why are you running away?



love this song

Hey, they dug my favourite thread up!

MILLENCOLIN - BORING PLANET

When I was a kid I thought that I could fly
throw myself out of a widow, right out into the sky
now when I am older I know that I could die
die from a depression, I would learn my lesson well

Life's so normal, nothing's shocking
Boring planet, cause no one here is rocking
Life's so tragic, nothing's clocking
Boring planet cause no one here is rocking hard

When I was a kid I thought that I was strong
the girls in school got beaten up by me every day long
now when I am older I know that it was wrong
to deal with girls in the first place, cause a broken heart is now the case
I'm broken hearted in disgrace

It's a boring planet, we're just lying to ourselves
It's a boring planet, thank's to us and no one else

Undeclinable - Beautiful Nation.

Congratulations. You have made it to our border. Is there something you’d like to order? A life without oppression and fear.

Beautifull nation. Holds out a prospect of liberation. The examplary situation. There’s no place for supplication.

(Beautifull backward harmony, sad hidden melody)

You’ve got thirty days to convince us all. That you’re really suffering in life. Stand against the wall. But if there is a chance of survival. You have to pack your bags and go home.

We know it’s not fair, but don’t really care. Not even aware of the situation out there. Life before becoming a refugee.

You’re on probation especially for this occasion. We’re having a celebration and maybe we grant asylum.

Sorry, but you’ll have to go. Where to, we don’t want to know. We deny you our hospitality.

Depeche Mode - "Walking In My Shoes" (from the album: Songs Of Faith And Devotion)

I would tell you about the things they put me through
The pain I've been subjected to
But the Lord himself would blush
The countless feasts laid at my feet
Forbidden fruits for me to eat
But I think your pulse would start to rush

Now I'm not looking for absolution
Forgiveness for the things I do
But before you come to any conclusions
Try walking in my shoes
Try walking in my shoes
You'll stumble in my footsteps
Keep the same appointments I kept
If you try walking in my shoes
If you try walking in my shoes

Morality would frown upon
Decency look down upon
The scapegoat fate's made of me
But I promise now, my judge and jurors
My intentions couldn't have been purer
My case is easy to see
I'm not looking for a clearer conscience
Peace of mind after what I've been through
And before we talk of any repentance
Try walking in my shoes
Try walking in my shoes
You'll stumble in my footsteps
Keep the same appointments I kept
If you try walking in my shoes
If you try walking in my shoes
Try walking in my shoes

Now I'm not looking for absolution
Forgiveness for the things I do
But before you come to any conclusions
Try walking in my shoes
Try walking in my shoes

Radiohead - "You Never Wash Up After Yourself" (B-side on the "My Iron Lung" EP)

i must get out once in a while
everything is starting to die
the dust settles, the worms dig
the spiders crawl over the bed

i must get out once in a while
i eat all day and i now i am fat
yesterday's meal is hugging the plate
you never wash up after yourself

This is a very beautiful song:

Don't Dream It's Over (Neil Finn) Crowded house.

LYRICS

There is freedom within, there is freedom without
Try to catch the deluge in a paper cup
There's a battle ahead, many battles are lost
But you'll never see the end of the road
While you're traveling with me

Hey now, hey now
Don't dream it's over
Hey now, hey now
When the world comes in
They come, they come
To build a wall between us
We know they won't win

Now I'm towing my car, there's a hole in the roof
My possessions are causing me suspicion but there's no proof
In the paper today tales of war and of waste
But you turn right over to the T.V. page

Now I'm walking again to the beat of a drum
And I'm counting the steps to the door of your heart
Only shadows ahead barely clearing the roof
Get to know the feeling of liberation and relief

Hey now, hey now
Don't dream it's over
Hey now, hey now
When the world comes in
They come, they come
To build a wall between us
Don't ever let them win
