"Change" - Mind.In.A.Box

And I will never see the truth

This is not a matter of my youth

I do not need anybody else

Bonds would put my mind into cells

And I will never know I was wrong

Never listen to those truly strong

I do not fear anything that's not me

Ignorance is the ultimate key

But I wouldn't want to live like this forever

But change myself? Never never!

The very thought sends shivers down my spine

I'm sure everything everything will be fine

I am the one who cries out at night

For somebody to change my very core

Not sure why I live in endless fright

Doomed to love only myself for evermore

I am the one who has no real friends

Shallow people flocking to my banner

Always trying to make easy amends

Cherishing my own overbearing manner

Life - always fragile

I will never change

Love - always fleeting

I will never change

Life - always fragile

I will never change

Love - always fleeting

I will never change

But I wouldn't want to live like this forever

Maybe I really was too clever

But I wouldn't want to end like that

I would die lonely and incredibly sad

I will never drag myself out of this

The shadows of my past bogging me down

Feeling lost in turmoil and crisis

My face forever set in an endless frown

I have been hurt beyond mental repair

Thence destined to suffer eternal damnation

No one can be there for me to care

But without I will never find salvation

Lust - always empty

But I will never change

Death - always tempting

But I will never change

Lust - always empty

But I will never change

Death - always tempting

But I will never change

Everything is about control

I must never slip nor ever fall

Anything is possible for me

I must never doubt and finally be free

And finally be free

The Chameleons - Less Than Human

Must have died a thousand times

I must have died a thousand times

I must have died a thousand times

Feeling less than human

I surmise I'm less than human

In Gods' eyes

Time he's on my side, she said

Time he's on my side, she said

He may be on your side I said

But it makes no difference in the end

He's coming after you my friend

Must have cried a thousand times

Must have cried a thousand times

I must have cried a thousand times

Feeling less than human

I surmise I'm less than human

In Gods' eyes

I must have died a thousand times

I must have died a thousand times

And I must have cried a thousand times

I must have cried a thousand times

Wao-oo-oo Wao-oo-oo Wao-oo-oo Wao-oo-oo

Under Pressure _ Queen & David Bowie

Pressure pushing down on me

Pressing down on you no man ask for

Under pressure - that burns a building down

Splits a family in two

Puts people on streets

That's o.k.

It's the terror of knowing

What this world is about

Watching some good friends

Screaming 'Let me out'

Pray tomorrow - gets me higher

Pressure on people - people on streets

O.k.

Chippin' around - kick my brains around the floor

These are the days it never rains but it pours

People on streets

People on streets

It's the terror of knowing

What this world is about

Watching some good friends

Screaming 'Let me out'

Pray tomorrow - gets me higher high high

Pressure on people - people on streets

Turned away from it all like a blind man

Sat on a fence but it don't work

Keep coming up with love

but it's so slashed and torn

Why - why - why ?

Love love love love love

Insanity laughs under pressure we're cracking

Can't we give ourselves one more chance

Why can't we give love that one more chance

Why can't we give love give love give love give love

give love give love give love give love give love

'Cause love's such an old fashioned word

And love dares you to care for

The people on the edge of the night

And loves dares you to change our way of

Caring about ourselves

This is our last dance

This is our last dance

This is ourselves

Under pressure

Under pressure

Pressure

Revelation (Mother Earth) Ozzy Osbourne

Mother please forgive them, For they know not what they do.

Looking back in history's books, It seems it's nothing new.

Oh! Let my mother live.

Heaven is for heroes,And hell is full of fools.

Stupidity, no will to live, They're breaking God's own rules.

Please let my mother live.

Father, of all creation,I think we're all going wrong.

The course they're taking,Seems to be breaking.

And it won't take too long, Children of the future,Watching empires fall.

Madness the cup they drink from,Self destruction the toll.

I had a vision, l saw the world burn, And the seas had turned red

The sun had fallen, the final curtain, In the land of the dead.

Mother, please show the children. Before it's too late

To fight each other, there's no-one winning. We must fight all the hate.

This song is kinda' a bridge (or at least part of it) from the dark to the light parts of this life...

it´s getting dark...

too soon...

a threatening silence...

surrounding me...

a wind...

comes up from the islands...

distance fades to stormy grey

washed out from the deep of the ocean

here i will stand to face your wrath...

while all the others are

praying

calm down my heart...

don´t beat so fast...

don´t be afraid just once in a lifetime

calm down my heart...

don´t beat so fast...

don´t be afraid just once in a lifetime

no rain can wash away my tears

no wind can soothe my pain

you made me doubt,

you made me fear

but now i´m not the same

you took my wife,

my unborn son...

torn into the deep of the ocean

i don´t pretend that i love you

´cause there is nothing left to loose

and when silence

comes back to me...

i find myself feeling lonely

standing here

on the shores of destiny

i find myself feeling lonely

i had a life to give...

many dreams to live...

don´t you know that

you´re losing so much this time

beyond the waves..

i will be free

while all the others are

praying

calm down my heart...

don´t beat so fast...

don´t be afraid just once in a lifetime

calm down my heart...

don´t beat so fast...

don´t be afraid just once in a lifetime

no rain can wash away my tears

no wind can soothe my pain

you made me doubt,

you made me fear

but now i´m not the same

you took my wife,

my unborn son...

torn into the deep of the ocean

i don´t pretend that i love you

´cause there is nothing left to loose

the love in you,

it does not burn,

there is no lesson you can learn

and there are sounds you cannot hear,

and there are feelings you can´t feel

calm down my heart...

don´t beat so fast...

don´t be afraid just once in a lifetime

i don´t pretend that i love you

and this time i´m not scared of you

There is absolutely no defense for the artistic shortcomings of this work, but it NEVER fails to brighten my mood.

BODY COMPANY by AND ONE...

Sorry, no lyrics will be posted. They are embarrassingly stupid.

I still need somebody to translate "Pimmelman" by And One for me.

I'm convinced I'm missing something hilarious.

By Shane MacGowan (1994)

Last night as I lay dreaming

My way across the sea

James Mangan brought me comfort

With laudanum and poitin

He flew me back to Dublin

In 18---19

To a public execution

Being held on Stephen's Green

The young man on the platform

Held his head up and he did sing

Then he whispered hard into my ear

As he handed me this ring

"If you miss me on the harbour

For the boat, it leaves at three

Take this snake with eyes of garnet

My mother gave to me!

This snake cannot be captured

This snake cannot be tied

This snake cannot be tortured, or

Hung or crucified

It came down through the ages

It belongs to you and me

So pass it on and pass it on

'Till all mankind is free

If you miss me on the harbour

For the boat, it leaves at three

Take this snake with eyes of garnet

My mother gave to me"

He swung, his face went purple

A roar came from the crowd

But Mangan laughed and pushed me

And we got back on the cloud

He dropped me off in London

Back in this dying land

But my eyes were filled with wonder

At the ring still in my hand

"If you miss me on the harbour

For the boat, it leaves at three

Take this snake with eyes of garnet

My mother gave to me!

And if you miss me on the harbour

For the boat, it leaves at three

Take this snake with eyes of garnet

My mother gave to me!"

I had somehow forgotten this song (#%@$$^*&!)

VNV NATION

I'd only come here seeking peace.

I'd only come here seeking me.

It seems I came to leave

In your dream you see me clear

I have no restraint, no fear

powerless i watched from faces i'd assumed.

my purpose set. My will defined.

Caress the air. Embrace the skies.

Escape the sorrow and restraint of mortal cities.

Give me time I will be clear. Given time you'll understand.

What posseses me to right what you have suffered.

I'm in this mood because of scorn. I'm in a mood for total war.

To the darkened skies once more and ever onward.

So many years I stood among

the thoughts and tears of those i served.

Among my own I was alone through my own doing.

All the years i walked unknown behind the faces I assumed.

Powerless to clear your mind of what you'd suffered.

They fall again.

They fall again.

Give me time I will be clear.

Given time you'll understand

what posseses me to right what you have suffered.

I'm in this mood because of scorn.

I'm in a mood for total war.

To the darkened skies once more and ever onward.

There is no faith in which to hide.

Even truth is filled with lies.

Doubting angels fall to walk among the living.

I'm in this mood because of scorn.

I'm in a mood for total war.

To the darkened skies once more and ever onward.

I'd only come here seeking peace.

I'd only come here seeking me.

It seems I came to leave

This band has been my ALL TIME favorite since I was a little girl. I heard this song, for the first time in a LONG time.

(i found it on YouTube, but its just the song, and I hate life versions, sometimes they suck ass... so here's what i found:

<---Clicky

During the time of which I speak it was hard to turn the other cheek

To the blows of insecurity

Feeding the cancer of my intellect the blood of love soon neglected

Lay dying in the strength of its impurity

Meanwhile our friends we thought were so together

They've all gone and left each other in search of fairer weather

And we sit here in our storm and drink a toast

To the slim chance of love's recovery.

There I am in younger days, star gazing,

Painting picture perfect maps of how my life and love would be

Not counting the unmarked paths of misdirection

My compass, faith in love's perfection

I missed ten million miles of road I should have seen

Meanwhile our friends we thought were so together

Left each other one by one in search of fairer weather

And we sit here in our storm and drink a toast

To the slim chance of love's recovery.

Rain soaked and voice choked like silent screaming in a dream

I search for our absolute distinction

Not content to bow and bent

To the whims of culture that swoop like vultures

Eating us away, eating us away

Eating us away to our extinction

Oh how I wish I were a trinity, so if I lost a part of me

I'd still have two of the same to live

But nobody gets a lifetime rehearsal, as specks of dust we're universal

To let this love survive would be the greatest gift we could give

Tell all the friends who think they're so together

That these are ghosts and mirages, these thoughts of fairer weather

Though it's storming out I feel safe within the arms of love's discovery

I love most of the songs by them. This is one of the ones that speaks to me the most. :)

I hardly EVER pic a fav song anymore...hard to chose when yoy like many different sounds and moods....

but thi9s one is now my personal MANTRA for life...

(f0R now anyway....)

I suppose the lyrics give away the why... :happydance

Everything is beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, beautiful..

Everything is beautiful..

Let the music carry you..

Maybe I will follow you, forever!

Nowhere else I'd rather be,

When you're lying next to me..

Let the music carry us, together!

Imperfection

By-Backandtotheleft

Burning bridge, and kingdoms fall

The strongest shall survive, the winner takes all

Bitter words from narrow minds

Drawing future plans of endless boundary lines

Oh, nothing stays the same

We cannot keep from drowning in a sea of sadness

Oh, nothing stays the same

We cannot keep from drowning in a sea of sadness

A waste of time at the end of the day

A former shinging light fades away

helping hands will knock you down

Changing empires into ghosttowns

A haggard man, cold and pale

Place the highest bid, a lifetime up for sale

Mask the fear of frail rejection

Fall victim to nature's imperfections

Oh, nothing stays the same

We cannot keep from drowning in a sea of sadness

Oh, nothing stays the same

We cannot keep from drowning in a sea of sadness

Oh, nothing stays the same

We cannot keep from drowning in a sea of sadness

Oh, nothing stays the same

We cannot keep from drowning in a sea of sadness

Illusion

By VNV Nation

I know it's hard to tell how mixed up you feel

Hoping what you need is behind every door

Each time you get hurt, I don't want you to change

Because everyone has hopes, you're human after all

The feeling sometimes, wishing you were someone else

Feeling as though you never belong

This feeling is not sadness, this feeling is not joy

I truly understand. Please, don't cry now

Please don't go, I want you to stay

I'm begging you please, please don't leave here

I don't want you to hate for all the hurt that you feel

The world is just illusion trying to change you

Being like you are

Well this is something else, who would comprehend?

But some that do, lay claim

Divine purpose blesses them

That's not what I believe, and it doesn't matter anyway

A part of your soul ties you to the next world

Or maybe to the last, but I'm still not sure

But what I do know, is to us the world is different

As we are to the world but I guess you would know that

Please don't go, I want you to stay

I'm begging you please, please don't leave here

I don't want you to hate for all the hurt that you feel

The world is just illusion trying to change you

Please don't go, I want you to stay

I'm begging you please, oh please don't leave here

I don't want you to change for all the hurt that you feel

This world is just illusion always trying to change you

Please don't go, I want you to stay

I'm begging you please, please don't leave here

I don't want you to hate for all the hurt that you feel

The world is just illusion trying to change you

Please don't go, I want you to stay

I'm begging you please, oh please don't leave here

I don't want you to change for all the hurt that you feel

This world is just illusion always trying to change you

Black Fras - Moving Into Light

You hold me close like I’ll never know

You show me something true

You tell me that you will lead me there

And all I care, is that you do

When I’ve given up my body

When I hand it into your care

You tell me ‘friend,’ let go your fears

And fly with me somewhere

And still I carry doubt

And still I hide my pain

What if there is no light

What if we’re only blind

My body’s moving into light

When I breathe and hold you in my sight

My body’s moving into light

I feel you inner love

I feel your inner love

So I call you in the morning

And I call again at night

But you answer me in riddles

How do I know, what is right

How do I know you’re there

If I can’t see your face

What if there is no light

What if it’s just a desperate creation

Of the mind

My body’s moving into light

When I breathe and hold you in my sight

My body’s moving into light

I feel you inner love

I feel your inner love

Blaqk Audio "Cities Of Night"

I've seen what you have made in all it's beauty.

What I cannot create I recognize.

Let's watch the night explode, just hold onto me.

I'll whisper you this truth uncompromised.

Wait for a heart that never lies,

But not this time.

Watch those explosions in the sky and you'll go blind,

But not this time.

Will you live in hope or dark desire?

What can I say?

Fuck love give me fire.

Have you seen what I've made beneath the wreckage?

Just suffer through the dust and there you'll find

The color of a night that burned out from us.

Surrounded by it's glow our city lies.

Wait for a love that never dies and you've lost life.

One overdoes just to survive.

We'll shine this time.

We'll make headlines

Will you live in hope or dark desire?

What can I say?

Fuck love give me fire.

Tower of Strength (the Mission UK)

you raise me up

when I'm on the floor

you see me through

when I'm lonely and scared

and I'm feeling true to the written word

and you're true to me

and still I need more

it would tear me apart

to feel no one ever cared

for me

for me

for me

you are a tower of strength to me

you stand firm and proud

when the wind blows in your face

and when the sun shines in your eyes

you just turn your head away

to me

to me

to me

you are a tower of strength to me

you rescue me

you are my faith

my hope

my liberty

and when there's darkness all around

you shine bright for me

you are the guiding light

to me

to me

to me

you are a tower of strength to me

you are all passion and heart

when I lay in your embrace

and heaven is in your kiss

salvation lies just a touch away

to me

to me

to me

you are a tower of strength to me

KINGDOM

VNV Nation

Our domain, this kingdom come

now godless lands whose ways are lost.

Without the strength to carry on.

All values lost all virtue none.

Did you think you'ld be saved

by burning flags to cleanse yourselves of shame?

Or are you afraid, are you afraid,

as you stare back at your face?

are you ashamed, are you afraid,

by destroying what the gods once gave?

Do you think that you'll be saved?

Do you think that you'll be saved?

And, I believe that we'll conceive

to make in hell for us a heaven.

A brave new world.

A promised land.

A fortitude of hearts and minds.

Until I see this kingdom is mine,

I'll turn the darkness into light.

I'll guide the blind.

My will be done

until the day

I see our kingdom has been won.

No more the servants of the weak

devoid of thought or light to seek.

I'll leave no walls, no stone unturned.

Every tower must be razed

to the dust from which it came.

And, none will be spared, no remnant saved.

An' are you ashamed, are you afraid,

of the gods and idols that you have made?

Did you think you would be saved

by the gods and idols that you have made?

None will be saved.

None will be saved.

None will be saved.

And, I believe that we'll conceive

to make in hell for us a heaven.

A brave new world.

A promised land.

A fortitude of hearts and minds.

Until I see this kingdom is mine,

I'll turn the darkness into light.

I'll guide the blind.

My will be done

until the day

I see our kingdom has been won.

Do you think that you'll be saved?

Do you think that you'll be saved?

None will, none will be saved.

And, I believe that we'll conceive

to make in hell for us a heaven.

A brave new world.

A promised land.

A fortitude of hearts and minds.

Until I see this kingdom is mine,

I'll turn the darkness into light.

I'll guide the blind.

My will be done

until the day

I see our kingdom has been won.

...'nuff said..
