That's because it's the other guy singing I think....

Queens Of The Stone Age-Someone's In The Wolf

Once you're lost in twillights's blue
You don't find your way, the way finds you...

Tempt the fates, beware the smile
It hides all the teeth, my dear,
What's behind them...

So glad you could stay
Forever

He steps between the trees, a crooked man
There's blood on the blade
Don't take his hand

You warm by the firelight, in twilight's blue
Shadows creep & dance the walls
He's creeping too..

So glad you could stay
Forever

And another one bites the dust. Hey.
Henrietta

Post by Henrietta »

I wish I had what I need
To be on my own
'Cause I feel so defeated
And I'm feeling alone

And it all seems so helpless
And I have no plans
I'm a plane in the sunset
With nowhere to land

And all I see
It could never make me happy
And all my sand castles
Spend their time collapsing

Let me know that You hear me
Let me know Your touch
Let me know that You love me
Let that be enough

It's my birthday tomorrow
No one here could know
I was born on this Thursday
22 years ago

And I feel stuck
Watching history repeating
Yeah, who am I?
Just a kid who know (s)he's needy

Let me know that You hear me
Let me know Your touch
Let me know that You love me
And let that be enough


Switchfoot~Let That Be Enough


I never realized, until I read the lyrics, that they were talking about God.

With a sigh you turn away
With a deepening heart, no words to say
You will find that the world has changed forever

The trees are now turning from green to gold
And the sun is now fading
I wish I could hold you closer

You're such a happening fish
Flopping on me
Throughout all this time
So complicated and unfree
From a young boy
With a tail (tale)
Into a fish with a book or two published

I love you
Because you don't know why
You don't know why you feel resentful
And you weep
And sometimes you are cruel

I love you
Because you took a stand
For those of us who are the weaker
But we're not fake
We are wild and we are screwed

You and I
Might have a lot to learn
But we're shot out of the earth and we tumble into holes
In the interim we're spinning and we don't know how to fall
All the idiots who're talking don't know anything at all
awkward is the new cool

Here's a quarter for the phone
Why don't you call someone and find out
How it is we can all belong
To something that no one
Wants any part of
One day you'll wake up and they'll be
Advertising on police cars
And your death will sell you out
As someone smart,
Somewhat smart

^Advertising on Police Cars is indeed a kick ass song. :nod:

This Time Imperfect - AFI

I cannot leave here, I cannot stay
Forever haunted more than afriad
Asphyxiate on words I would say
I'm drawn to a blackened sky as I turn blue

(Chorus)
There are no flowers, no, not this time
They'll be no angels gracing the lines
Just these stark words I find
I'd show a smile but I'm too weak
I'd share with you could I only speak
Just how much this hurts me

I cannot stay here, I cannot leave
Just like all I loved, I'm make-believe
Imagined heart, I disappear
Seems no one will appear here and make me real

(Chorus)

I'd tell you how it haunts me
I'd tell you how it haunts me
(Cuts through my day and sinks into my dreams)
I'd tell you how it haunts me
(Cuts through my day and sinks into my dreams)
You don't care that it haunts me

(Chorus 2 x)
Just how much you...

andddddd....

Tripoli - Matthew Good Band

Best to smile
Best to squall for daddy
Best to revile
The baby Jesus loves the company

Must have lost my mind
When I lost the car keys
On my way out
strange how you're not with me...

(Chorus)
Where has my head gone?
Where do you hole up to mutilate the day from me?
Where has my head gone?
I felt it slip away...

Best to defile
Best to stay sleeping
In a while
I will awake to be a has-been

Must have lost my mind
When I lost your heart key
On my way out
strange how you're not with me...

(Chorus...a couple of times)

Just two random picks:

Dredg - Same Ol' Road

Here we go
down that same old road again
Sympathy unfolds the shell that holds
all the beauty within
Here we go
down that same old road again

A memory, a regret, a hope…

Here we go
down that same old road again
Empathy controls the wind that blows
and tickles our skin

A memory, a regret, a hope, a stimulant…

Recent it seems
We must push on
Though we bleed
We must push on...

All you need is a modest house in a modest neighborhood
in a modest town where honest people dwell
Making the cleanest energy
for the greenest plants to grow
in the richest soil that is drenched with the freshest rain
Then you should sit in your backyard,
watch clouds peak over the tallest mountain tops
because they unveil honest opinions about the stars

We must push on
Recent it seems
We must push on
Though we bleed
We must push on

All you need is a modest house
in a modest neighborhood

Lovedrug - The Monster

The sky is growing dark
You should pack your bags and leave your children behind
I hear Egypt is nice this time of year
The shadows from outside are creeping in here
In dreams it seems you’re lacking of
The dreams you need to wake up just to run out of luck

Careful, the monster is round that corner
And he’s waiting for blood tonight
He knows that you might fight back

Your eyes are growing dark
The windows to your soul are showing off
It’s hard for me to say “that’s how I like it”, baby
The screaming from the cellar never helps

You’re dreams they seem to leave you so alone
In dreams it seems you can’t fight but some weapons would be nice

Careful, the monster is down that hallway
Drooling over your tasty arm
He knows that you can’t harm him ever

But he doesn’t know, you’ve got an exorcism show
But now he knows
Rot in hell, rot in hell

Tenacious D - Wonderboy

High above the mucky-muck
castle made of clouds
there sits Wonderboy
sitting oh so proudly

Not much to say when you're high above the mucky-muck
yeah, yeah
Wonderboy, what is the secret of your power?
Wonderboy, won't you take me far away from the mucky-muck now?

Now it's time for me to tell you about Young Nastyman
arch-rival and nemesis of Wonderboy
with powers comparable to Wonderboy!
What powers, you ask?
I dunno, how about the power of flight?
That do anything for ya?
That's levitation, Holmes!
How about the power to kill a yak
from two hundred yards away
with MIND BULLETS?
That's telekinesis, Kyle!
How about the power to move you?

The history of Wonderboy and Young Nastyman
rig-a-goo-goo, rig-a-goo-goo
The secret to be told
a gold chest to be bold
and blasting forth in three-part harmony: YEAH!

Wonderboy, what is the secret of your power?
Wonderboy, won't you take me far away from the mucky-muck now?

Well, Wonderboy and Young Nastyman joined forces
They formed a band the likes of which had never been seen
And they named themselves Tenacious D
That's right! Me and KG (that's me!)
We're now Tenacious D!
Come fly with me, fly!

Wonderboy, what is the secret of your power?
Wonderboy, won't you take me far away from the mucky-muck now?
Oh, take my hand, Young Nastyman, we'll fly
Bring out your broadsword, there's the hydra
Slice his throat and grab his scroat
You take the high road
I'll take the low
There, the crevasse: fill it with your mighty juice!

Rage Against the Machine - Guerilla Radio

Transmission third world war third round
A decade of the weapon of sound above ground
Ain't no shelter if you're looking for shade
I lick shots at the brutal charade
As tha polls close like a casket
On truth devoured
A silent play on the shadow of power
A spectacle monopolized
The camera's eye on choice disguised
Was it cast for the mass who burn and toil?
Or for the vultures who thirst for blood and oil?
A spectacle monopolized
They hold the reins and stole your eyes
The fistagons bullets and bombs
Who stuff the banks
Who staff the party ranks
More for Gore or the son of a drug lord
None of the above fuck it cut the cord

Lights out guerrilla radio
Turn that shit up

Contact I highjacked the frequencies
Blockin' the beltway
Move on DC
Way past the days of bombin' mc's
Sound off Mumia guan be free
Who gottem yo check the federal file
All you pen devils know the trial was vile
An army of pigs try to silence my style
Off em all out that box it's my radio dial

Lights out guerrilla radio
Turn that shit up

It has to start somewhere
It has to start sometime
What better place than here
What better time than now
All hell can't stop us now
hating thunder bay since 2003

Goodbye you liar,
Well you sipped from the cup but you don't own up to anything
Then you think you will inspire
Take apart your head
(and I wish I could inspire)
Take apart your demons, then you add it to the list.

Three Days Grace
Wake Up


I’m not sober all the time
You bring me down at least you try
Until we see this eye to eye
I don’t want you

I must be running out of luck
Cause you’re just not drunk enough to fuck
And now I’ve had it up to here
I don’t, I don’t want you

It took so long to see
You walked away from me
When I need you
Wake up I’m pounding on the door
I’m not the man I was before
Where the hell are you
When I need you
Wake up I’m pounding on the door
I won’t hurt you anymore
Where the hell are you
When I need you

I’m not angry all the time
You push me down at least you try
Until we see this eye to eye
I don’t want you

It took so long to see
You walked away from me
When I need you
Wake up I’m pounding on the door
I’m not the man I was before
Where the hell are you
When I need you
Wake up I’m pounding on the door
I won’t hurt anymore
Where the hell are you
When I need you

It took so long to see
You walked away from me
When I need you

Wake up I’m pounding on the door
I’m not the man I was before
Where the hell are you
When I need you
Wake up I’m pounding on the door
I won’t hurt you anymore
Where the hell are you
When I need you

a perfect circle - gimmie gimmie gimmie

gimme gimme gimme gimme
i need more, i need more
gimme gimme gimme gimme
don't ask what for, don't ask what for

sitting here, i'm a loaded gun
waiting to go off
i've got nothing to do
but shoot my mouth off

gimme gimme gimme gimme
i need more, i need more
gimme gimme gimme gimme
don't ask what for, don't ask what for

i know the world's got problems
i've got problems of my own
not the kind that can't be solved
with an atom bomb

gimme gimme gimme gimme
i need more, i need more
gimme gimme gimme gimme
don't ask what for, don't ask what for

you know i'm gonna go out
get something for my head
if I keep on doing this
i'm gonna end up dead

gimme gimme gimme gimme
i need more, i need more
gimme gimme gimme gimme
don't ask what for, don't ask what for

Wishlist by Pearl Jam

I wish I was a neutron bomb, for once I could go off.
I wish I was a sacrifice but somehow still lived on.
I wish I was a sentimental ornamnet you hung on
The christmas tree, I wish I was the star that went on top,
I wish I was the evidence
I wish I was the grounds for fifty million hands up raised and opened toward the sky.

I wish I was a sailor with someone who waited for me.
I wish I was as fortunate, as fortunate as me.
I wish I was a messenger, and all the news is good.
I wish I was the full moon shining off your camaro's hood.

I wish I was an alien, at home behind the sun,
I wish I was the souvenir you kept your house key on.
I wish I was the pedal break that you depended on.
I wish I was the verb to trust, and never let you down.

I wish I was the radio song, the one that you turned up,
I wish, I wish, I wish, I wish,
I guess it never stops.

The Last Unicorn :love:

When the last eagle flies
over the last crumbling mountain
and the last lion roars
at the last dusty fountain

in the shadow of the forest
though she may be old and worn
they will stare, unbelieving
at the last unicorn

When the first breath of winter
through the flowers is icing
and you look to the north
and a pale moon is rising

and it seems like all is dying
and would leave the world to mourn
in the distance, hear her laughter
it's the last unicorn

I'm alive, I'm alive

When the last moon is cast
over the last star of morning
and the future is past
without even a last desperate warning

look into the sky where through
the clouds a path is torn
look and see her, how she shimmers
it's the last unicorn

I'm alive, I'm alive
I'm alive
