[NoahideHiker]

Could you private message me a link to the vid? I'm pretty thick sined when it coems to boobies and stuff. LOL! I love music of all types and some of the new age stuff I really like. Along the lines of Delerium, Deep Forest, Enigma and the like.

"This is the song that never ends..."

 

[standing_alone]

Hatebreed - Unloved: This song is just so true for me.

When it all ended
There was no where to turn
I hid inside myself hoping someone would find me

That day never came
As the years passed the pain lessened
I thought your voice was silient forever
I was wrong

This time there's no turning back
Emerge from a doorway at the end of a war inside my soul
There's no picking up where we left off
And there will not be a future
I've died so many times inside
I've accepted this pain
And I can't look back now
I never will

You don't know
You don't care
You never have and you never will
(repeat)

You made me realize
Everything I've ever known of love is pain
And the person you once were
Has died and rotted away
I've lived with this knife in my heart
As a reminder of what I can't be
I know all I do is hate you
There is nothing you can say or do

You don't know
You don't care
You never have and you never will
(repeat)

You were never apart of my life
And you never will be

unloved
I was born unloved
unloved

break it down

 

[Mister_T]

I've never been a fan of war. Learning about the Vietnam War in high school history class made me even less of fan and made me hate the idea even more. Around the same time, I started playing guitar and I started getting heavily into Metallica (old Metallica). I bought Master of Puppets and this song really struck a chord with me:


Disposable Heroes
Bodies fill the fields I see, hungry heroes end
No one to play soldier now, no one to pretend
running blind through killing fields, bred to kill them all
Victim of what said should be
a servant `til I fall


Soldier boy, made of clay
now an empty shell
twenty one, only son
but he served us well
Bred to kill, not to care
just do as we say
finished here, Greeting Death
he's yours to take away


Back to the front
you will do what I say, when I say
Back to the front
you will die when I say, you must die
Back to the front
you coward
you servant
you blindman


Barking of machinegun fire, does nothing to me now
sounding of the clock that ticks, get used to it somehow
More a man, more stripes you bare, glory seeker trends
bodies fill the fields I see
the slaughter never ends


Soldier boy, made of clay
now an empty shell
twenty one, only son
but he served us well
Bred to kill, not to care
just do as we say
finished here, Greeting Death
he's yours to take away


Back to the front
you will do what I say, when I say
Back to the front
you will die when I say, you must die
Back to the front
you coward
you servant
you blindman

Why, Am I dying?
Kill, have no fear
Lie, live off lying
Hell, Hell is here


I was born for dying


Life planned out before my birth, nothing could I say
had no chance to see myself, molded day by day
Looking back I realize, nothing have I done
left to die with only friend
Alone I clench my gun


Soldier boy, made of clay
now an empty shell
twenty one, only son
but he served us well
Bred to kill, not to care
just do as we say
finished here, Greeting Death
he's yours to take away


Back to the front
you will do what I say, when I say
Back to the front
you will die when I say, you must die
Back to the front
you coward
you servant
you blindman


Back to the front.

John Prine.

While digesting Reader's Digest
In the back of a dirty book store,
A plastic flag, with gum on the back,
Fell out on the floor.
Well, I picked it up and I ran outside
Slapped it on my window shield,
And if I could see old Betsy Ross
I'd tell her how good I feel.

Chorus:
But your flag decal won't get you
Into Heaven any more.
They're already overcrowded
From your dirty little war.
Now Jesus don't like killin'
No matter what the reason's for,
And your flag decal won't get you
Into Heaven any more.

Well, I went to the bank this morning
And the cashier he said to me,
"If you join the Christmas club
We'll give you ten of them flags for free."
Well, I didn't mess around a bit
I took him up on what he said.
And I stuck them stickers all over my car
And one on my wife's forehead.

Repeat Chorus:

Well, I got my window shield so filled
With flags I couldn't see.
So, I ran the car upside a curb
And right into a tree.
By the time they got a doctor down
I was already dead.
And I'll never understand why the man
Standing in the Pearly Gates said...

"But your flag decal won't get you
Into Heaven any more.
We're already overcrowded
From your dirty little war.
Now Jesus don't like killin'
No matter what the reason's for,
And your flag decal won't get you
Into Heaven any more."

Beck - Pay no mind

Tonight the city is full of morgues
And all the toilets are overflowing
There's shopping malls coming out of the walls
As we walk out among the manure

That's why
I pay no mind
I pay no mind
I pay no mind

Give the finger to the rock and roll singer
As he's dancing upon your paycheck
The sales climb high through the garbage pail sky
Like a giant dildo crushing the sun

That's why
I pay no mind
I sleep in slime
I just got signed

So get out your lead-pipe pipe dreams
Get out your ten-foot flags
The insects are huge and the poison's all been used
And the drugs won't kill your day job

Honey, that's why
I pay no mind
I pay no mind
I pay no mind

That's why
I pay no mind [x7]

There are so many songs, lyrics, that 'connect me', that I could start writing a list........

Some of them, I am sure would be called 'dull' by some, but this is an inspirational one

How Long Has It Been?

Words and Music by Hovie Lister

How long has it been, since you talked to the Lord,
And told Him your heart's hidden secrets?
How long since you prayed,
How long since you stayed,
On your knees 'til the light shone through?

How long has it been since your mind felt at ease,
How long since your heart knew no burden?
Can you call Him your friend,
How long has it been,
Since you knew that He cared for you?

How long has it been since you knelt by your bed,
And prayed to the Lord up in Heaven?
How long since you knew,
That He'd answer you,
And would keep you the long night through?

How long has it been since you woke with the dawn,
And felt that the day's worth the living?
Can you call Him your friend,
How long has it been,
Since you knew that He cared for you?

How long has it been since you talked with the Lord,
And told Him your heart's hidden secrets?
How long since you prayed,
How long since you stayed,
On your knees 'til the light shone through?

How long has it been since you woke with the dawn,
And felt that the days' worth the living?
Can you call Him your friend?
How long has it been,
Since you knew that He cared for you?​

 

[DeadVegas]

Buddy you're a boy make a big noise
Playin' in the street gonna be a big man some day
You got mud on yo' face
You big disgrace
Kickin' your can all over the place
Singin'

We will we will rock you
We will we will rock you

Buddy you're a young man hard man
Shoutin' in the street gonna take on the world some day
You got blood on yo' face
You big disgrace
Wavin' your banner all over the place
Singin'

We will we will rock you
We will we will rock you

Buddy you're an old man poor man
Pleadin' with your eyes gonna make you some peace some day
You got mud on your face
You big disgrace
Somebody better put you back in your place

We will we will rock you
We will we will rock you

These are my favorites by Lamb...

Gorecki

If I should die this very moment
I wouldn't fear
For I've never known completeness
Like being here
Wrapped in the warmth of you
Loving every breath of you
Still my heart this moment
Or it might burst
Could we stay right here
Until the end of time until the earth stops turning
Wanna love you until the seas run dry
I've found the one I've waited for

All this time I've loved you
And never known your face
All this time I've missed you
And searched this human race
Here is true peace
Here my heart knows calm
Safe in your soul
Bathed in your sighs
Wanna stay right here
Until the end of time
'Til the earth stops turning
Gonna love you until the seas run dry
I've found the one I've waited for

The one I've waited for

All I've known
All I've done
All I've felt was leading to this
All I've known
All I've done
All I've felt was leading to this
Wanna stay right here
'Til the end of time 'till the earth stops turning
I'm gonna love you till the seas run dry
I've found the one I've waited for
The one I've waited for
The one I've waited for

Wanna stay right here
'Til the end of time 'till the earth stops turning
I'm gonna love you till the seas run dry
I've found the one I've waited for
The one I've waited for
The one I've waited for
​

Lullaby

Always and forever
We'll be free
Always and forever
Be with me​

We'll have love aplenty
We'll have joys outnumbered
We'll share perfect moments
You and me

​

Always and forever
You will see
Always and forever
Just be with me

​

We'll have love aplenty
We'll have joys outnumbered
We'll share perfect moments
You and me
You and me
You and me

Road To Hell
Bruce Dickinson

Slowly bleeding
Watch the vortex feeding
Like a swirling vulture on your face
Every hour
The unseen rays devour
Your screaming eyes cry out but they are blind
Father forgive me my sins
Give me the nails
I'll hammer them in

The road to Hell is full of good intentions
Say farewell, we may never meet again
The road to Hell is full of good intentions
Down the left hand highway with no sinister regrets

Brave new world
Of secret fantasy
That hovers just beyond
Your bloody grasp
Close enough
To fell the danger of the kill
Price for failure
Of your will
Father forgive us our sins
Cause we're all the junkies
Who never can win

The road to Hell is full of good intentions
Say farewell we may never meet again
The road to Hell is full of good intentions
Down the left hand highway with no sinister regrets

Father forgive me my sins
Give me the nails
I'll hammer them in

The road to Hell is full of good intentions
Parody of hope, here's the world that I must kill
We all have to live with our family inventions
Down the left hand highway with no sinister regrets

 

[Ramacharaka]

* Lyrics * My Life With the Thrill Kill Kult
Confessions Of A Knife
------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hand in Hand



Stay where you are
Playing with fatalities
Come pass the stars
As darkness crumbles bones of clay
Stop all this crying
Pass the liquid to a cold one
Fate's left us here
To beg to wait to try and save me from drowning
Hand in hand...

Stay by the fire
Satan is a razorblade
We trade back and forth
Leftover puzzles we lost in the war
It's still all the same
In the quiet should I leave you
Here all alone
To beg to wait to try and save everyone from drowning
Hand in hand...

 

[Majikthise]

Sitting up here watching all the lights blink down below
The Earth is turning ,why does it go so slow
Thinkin' bout the girl I left behind
Houston can you hear me, or have I lost my mind

Why me?
Why me?

I was waiting on the pad , all systems were go
The Man up in the tower was enjoying the show
Then I got this feeling that I never had before
Hey, let me outta here , what am I here for

Why me?
Why me?

There must be a thousand other guys
Must be some other way to look good in your eyes
Why am I up here, what do they see in me
Must be one thousand other places to be

WHY ME?

The last man to be here was never heard from again
He won't be back this way til 2010
Now I'm riding in a fountain of fire
With my back to the Earth I go higher and higher

Why me?

Why me, Take anyone but me

Why me?

Rob Dougan
"Furious Angels"

Like a sentence to death
I've got no options left
I've got nothing to show now
I'm down on the ground
I've got seconds to live
And you can't go now

Cause love, like an invisible bullet has shot me down and I'm bleeding - yeah, I'm bleeding
And if you go, furious angels will bring you back to me

You're a dirty needle
You're in my blood and there's no curing me
And I want to run
(like the blood from a wound)
To a place you can't see me

Cause love, like a blow to the head, has left me stunned and i'm reeling - yeah, I'm reeling
And if you go, furious angels will bring you back to me

You're a cold piece of steel between my ribs and there's no saving me
And I can't get up from this wet crimson bed that you made for me

Cause love, like a knife in the back, has cut me down and I'm bleeding - yeah, I'm bleeding
And if you go, angels will run to defend me - to defend me

Cause i can't get up
I'm as cold as a stove
I can feel the life fade from me
I'm down on the ground
I've got seconds to live
Then what's there that waits for me?

Cause love, like a sentence of death has left me stunned, and i'm reeling - yeah, i'm reeling
And if you go, furious angels will bring you back to me

"Paint me a Birmingham" Tracy Lawrence

He was sittin’ there, his brush in hand
Paintin’ waves as they danced, upon the sand
With every stroke, he brought to life
The deep blue of the ocean, against the mornin’ sky
I asked him if he only painted ocean scenes
He said for twenty dollars, I’ll paint you anything.

Chorus:

Well could you Paint Me A Birmingham
Make it look just the way I planned
A little house on the edge of town
Porch goin’ all the way around
Put her there in the front yard swing
Cotton dress make it, early spring
For awhile she’ll be, mine again
If you can Paint Me A Birmingham.

He looked at me, with knowing eyes
Then took a canvas from a bag there by his side
Picked up a brush, and said to me
Son just in this picture, would you like to me
I said if there’s any way you can
Could you paint me back into her arms again.

Paint Me A Birmingham
Make it look just the way I planned
A little house on the edge of town
Porch goin’ all the way around
Put her there in the front yard swing
Cotton dress make it, early spring
For awhile she’ll be, mine again
If you can Paint Me A Birmingham.

Put her there in the front yard swing
Cotton dress make it, early spring
For awhile she’ll be, mine again
If you can Paint Me A, Birmingham.

"First time for everything" Little Texas

I don’t stay out all night
I don’t close down the bars
And I don’t make a fool of myself
Well, I don’t drink too much
And I don’t get too loud
And I don’t ever raise too much hell

But there’s a first time for everything
Since you said goodbye
There’s not much of anything
That I haven’t tried
To somehow get over you
There’s no tellin’ what I might do
’cause if I’ve learned anything
There’s a first time for everything

I don’t call up old flames
’cause I don’t have a blackbook
I don’t spend all my time in the past
I don’t wake up with strangers
’cause I don’t sleep around
No I don’t believe in love that won’t last

But there’s a first time for everything
Since you said goodbye
There’s not much of anything
That I haven’t tried
To somehow get over you
There’s no tellin’ what I might do
’cause if I’ve learned anything
There’s a first time for everything

Yeah yeah

When I somehow get over you
There’s no tellin’ what I might do
’cause if I’ve learned anything
There’s a first time for everything

Yeah yeah
’cause if I’ve learned anything
There’s a first time for everything
Yeah
Yeah yeah yeah

The flesh will be stuffed into the dress even if it doesn't fit.
Obsess ourselves with matchstick perfection. My skin will never be so sweet.

'Saving Me' - Nickelback

Prison gates won't open up for me
On these hands and knees I'm crawlin'
Oh, I reach for you
Well I'm terrified of these four walls
These iron bars can't hold my soul in
All I need is you
Come please I'm callin'
And oh I scream for you
Hurry I'm fallin'

[CHORUS]
Show me what it's like
To be the last one standing
And teach me wrong from right
And I'll show you what I can be
Say it for me
Say it to me
And I'll leave this life behind me
Say it if it's worth saving me

Heaven's gates won't open up for me
With these broken wings I'm fallin'
And all I see is you
These city walls ain't got no love for me
I'm on the ledge of the eighteenth story
And oh I scream for you
Come please I'm callin'
And all I need from you
Hurry I'm fallin'

[CHORUS]

Hurry I'm fallin'

 

[Bastet]

The Longest Time - Billy Joel

Oh, oh, oh
For the longest time
Oh, oh, oh
For the longest time
If you said goodbye to me tonight
There would still be music left to write
What else could I do
I'm so inspired by you
That hasn't happened for the longest time

Once I thought my innocence was gone
Now I know that happiness goes on
That's where you found me
When you put your arms around me
I haven't been there for the longest time

Oh, oh, oh
For the longest time
Oh, oh, oh
For the longest
I'm that voice you're hearing in the hall
And the greatest miracle of all
Is how I need you
And how you needed me too
That hasn't happened for the longest time

Maybe this won't last very long
But you feel so right
And I could be wrong
Maybe I've been hoping too hard
But I've gone this far
And it's more than I hoped for

Who knows how much further we'll go on
Maybe I'll be sorry when you're gone
I'll take my chances
I forgot how nice romance is
I haven't been there for the longest time

I had second thoughts at the start
I said to myself
Hold on to your heart
Now I know the woman that you are
You're wonderful so far
And it's more than I hoped for

I don't care what consequence it brings
I have been a fool for lesser things
I want you so bad
I think you ought to know that
I intend to hold you for the longest time

Oh Oh Oh
For the longest time
Oh Oh Oh
For the longest time
Oh Oh Oh
For the longest time
(Fade out)
