The Unforgiven

New blood joins this Earth
And quickly he's subdued
Through constant pained disgrace
The young boy learns their rules
With time the child draws in
This whipping boy done wrong
Deprived of all his thoughts
The young man struggles on and on
He's known

A vow unto his own
That never from this day
His will they'll take away-ay

What I've felt
What I've known
Never shined through in what I've shown
Never be
Never see
Won't see what might have been
What I've felt
What I've known
Never shined through in what I've shown
Never free
Never me
So I dub thee Unforgiven

They dedicate their lives
To running all of his
He tries to please them all
This bitter man he is
Throughout his life the same
He's battled constantly
This fight he cannot win
A tired man they see no longer cares

The old man then prepares
To die regretfully
That old man here is me-ee

What I've felt
What I've known
Never shined through in what I've shown
Never be
Never see
Won't see what might have been
What I've felt
What I've known
Never shined through in what I've shown
Never free
Never me
So I dub thee Unforgiven

What I've felt
What I've known
Never shined through in what I've shown
Never be
Never see
Won't see what might have been
What I've felt
What I've known
Never shined through in what I've shown
Never free
Never me
So I dub thee Unforgiven whoa-oah

Never free
Never me
So I dub thee Unforgiven
You label me
I label you
So I dub thee Unforgiven
Never free
Never me
So I dub thee Unforgiven
You label me
I label you
So I dub thee Unforgiven

Angtoria - The Addiction

I shall scream in silence
I'll cry but not shed a tear
I shall speak with no sound
I shall hurt with no pain
Your hearts as black as the night
On my death bed i'll crawl
You hold the breathe to my life
Something die's within

My soul whispers your name, Are you there?
Ocean of my fears, I shall drown for you
Inabitions die, With your blinding lie
I yearn for you now, Taste me, Bleed me dry
Time cries slow like mourning, without you in my sight
Something burns within me, Deep within my eyes

(Is a depressing song - that is how I feel at the moment so it is my favourite song lyrics, until I feel happy again)

Is it just me, or is there a general theme to the music in here? We've had Disturbed, Metallica, Slipknot, Green Day.....

There's really not a huge amount of the happy smily going on.

Not complaining though. A forum without Britney, Christina, Miley and the Nausea Brothers is my idea of real fun. Not a 'like.... soooo kewl' in audio range.

Pinch me I must be in blissful Nirvana already.

((((hugs))))

(((Hugs))) back Lucky Bunny. We all feel sad and disturbed sometimes. I have been listening to Nirvana myself.

I am more than content to continue posting on this thread indefinitely. Most of what has been posted are songs I always (try to) sing. I have been waiting for a place online just to throw some lyrics out there. Perhaps we could start putting youtube links up with them too?

I think I get it, though. Rock, whether classic rock, thrash metal, punk, industrial or the 'emo'(??) scence etc..., is rarely ever shallow, and lyrics need a fairly discerning mind to appreciate. It deals with reality, and expresses thoughts the way true art does. Pop on the other hand.... it's ok in small doses, but usually it's like having sweet coffee so sweet you could hang wallpaper with it.

A guitar that screams more than the guy playing it, however, gets a useful point across, whilst the audience relates to the message being conveyed.

There are exceptions on both counts, however.

I particularly relate to Linkin Park, My Chemical Romance, Staind, Pantera, Metallica and Evanescence, but I like stuff from nearly every genre.

I think I should maybe quiet down a bit now.

((((hugs))))

I've had this one stuck in my head lately.
King's X "Shoes"

There can be but better ways from yesterdays to me
Somewhere there are better days for better ways to be
Sunny days have funny ways of quieting the roar
Is it still a blessed thing to live and live some more

And I'm left with the truth and I'm right in my mind
Given some of the time maybe never
So I walk in these shoes
When I feel it's the blues
If it ain't it will do
Yeah

I woke up early one morning like I'd been under a spell
Gazed into the mirrored reflection
Said I had to do it or else

Rooster Alice in Chains
(been grilling this song alot)

Aint found a way to kill me yet
Eyes burn with stinging sweat
Seems every path
leads me to nowhere
Wife and kids household pet
Army green was no safe bet
The bullets scream to
me from somewhere

Here they come to snuff the rooster
Yeah here come the rooster, yeah
You know he aint gonna die
No, no, no, ya know
he aint gonna die

Here they come to snuff the rooster
Yeah here come the rooster, yeah
You know he aint gonna die
No, no, no, ya know
he aint gonna die

Walkin tall machine gun man
They spit on me in my home land
Gloria sent me pictures of my boy
Got my pills gainst mosquito death
My buddys breathin his dyin breath
Oh God please wont you
help me make it through

Here they come to snuff the rooster
Yeah here come the rooster, yeah
You know he aint gonna die
No, no, no ya know
he aint gonna die

You and me of the 10,000 wars ~ Indigo Girls

You and me of the 10,000 wars,
dividing life into factions of pleasure and chores -
a bed to be made and a bed to lie in,
a hand in the darker side and our sights set on zion.

The heart of a skeptic and the mind of a child,
put my life in a box and let my imagination run wild
pour the cement for my feet.
the heart and the mind on a parallel course
never the two shall meet.

and, oh, the dissatisfied with the satisfied
everybody loves a melodrama
and the scandal of a lie -
still you held your arms open for the prodigal daughter

I see my eyes in your eyes through my eyes - still waters.

Try making one and one make one
twist the shapes until everything comes undone
watch the wizard behind the curtain
the larger than life and the power of seeming certain.

The evil ego and the vice of pride
is there ever anything else that makes us take our different sides?
I wanted everything to feed me.
About as full as I got was of myself
and the upper echalons of mediocrity

After the battle and we're still around
everything once up in the air has settled down
sweep the ashes let the silence find us
a moment of peace is worth every war behind us.
You and me of the 10,000 wars.

The night creeps through my bones with a winter's chill
sending shivers down my spine, like cold hands across my skin.

Five months have past
and taken with them every sense of warmth,
until my blood ran cold and life stood still.

And still I hold my breath, counting the nights
I've stood with my heart in hand.
And still I hold my breath, counting the nights.
Waiting for silence to break me down again.

If only you could see, see it in my eyes
how much it means. your touch. your smile.
To a heart that's beat has long since given out and given in.

The night opens wide, swallowing every sense.
Embracing me with emptiness.

The hours have become irritations,
and I find myself reduced to life's imitation.

How can we truly say that we are alive
when everything i see in me is screaming otherwise?
'Cause five months have passed
and taken with them every sense of warmth.
Until my blood ran cold and life stood still.

The hours have become irritations,
and I find myself reduced to life's imitation.


-Five Months by Parkway Drive

The World

A Wilhelm Scream - "Get mad, you Son of a b***h!"

If I could saw my way through
This solid dead grass,
Would the paradise I've found be worth my time?
If I could somehow undo,
Or make your soul stop the grind...
Can you count your loves in order of how they died?
Well I could too.

And now I feel like sinking in,
To the wall I built with these mitts.
I loved it in my way,
And now I pray for its decay.
The more I make plans,
The more get depressed.
It's as useless as business: The means to our end
When it kills to look your way;
The striped noose, the number 2 fade
The classic case.

I took a piss on every ocean,
So f**k the world.

I made a mess.
And when the son of God is coming,
Drop the rake and stop running.
Get mad, you son of a b***h!

Every muscle,
Is gripping tight for life.
As the worm turns, out the slug slips, past our eyes.
If we turn our backs,
How can we stop the knife?

If the world turns back around,
Will it notice us trying to burn down the last tree on the lot,
Of the last drug mart?

Make me honest give me solace.
Het me over the motions.
Inspire the next way to go.
Money plays us it recruits everybody.

Join them
Join them
We'll beat them ourselves

In the end did it get to you?
In the end did it wear on your heart?
In the end did it get to you?

When the son of God is coming,
Drop the rake and start running.
Get mad.
Stand defiant to the mission.
And the way that it was given.
Get mad, you son of a b***h.
Tell my why you did it.

In the end did it get to your heart?
I know how it feels when everything falls apart.
In the end.

In the end did it get to your heart?
I know how it feels when everything falls apart.
In the end.

In the end did it get to your heart?
I know how it feels when everything falls apart
In the end.

Get mad, you son of a b***h!

In the end did it get to you?
In the end did it wear on your heart?

The Pass Rush

Proud swagger out of the schoolyard
Waiting for the world's applause
Rebel without a conscience
Martyr without a cause

Static on your frequency
Electrical storm in your veins
Raging at unreachable glory
Straining at invisible chains

And now you're trembling on a rocky ledge
Staring down into a heartless sea
Can't face life on a razor's edge
Nothing's what you thought it would be

All of us get lost in the darkness
Dreamers learn to steer by the stars
All of us do time in the gutter
Dreamers turn to look at the cars
Turn around and turn around and turn around
Turn around and walk the razor's edge
Don't turn your back
And slam the door on me

It's not as if this barricade
Blocks the only road
It's not as if you're all alone
In wanting to explode

Someone set a bad example
Made surrender seem all right
The act of a noble warrior
Who lost the will to fight

And now you're trembling on a rocky ledge
Staring down into a heartless sea
Done with life on a razor's edge
Nothing's what you thought it would be

No hero in your tragedy
No daring in your escape
No salutes for your surrender
Nothing noble in your fate
Christ, what have you done?

All of us get lost in the darkness
Dreamers learn to steer by the stars
All of us do time in the gutter
Dreamers turn to look at the cars
Turn around and turn around and turn around
Turn around and walk the razor's edge (4x's)
Don't turn your back
And slam the door on me

jets to brazil--'chinatown'


candle is blue could see me through but I'm color blind
they tell me it's blue and I'm a believer that's why I'm blind
live on the freeway listen to signs and we drive by feel
be a believer believe everything you'll be right
half the time

candle is waxing takes my apartment I bask in its magic
all of the firefighters put out my fires took all my matches
staying up later waking up old and I'm leaving her never
ordering in all friends and lovers and we're making our weather with a lone light bulb

I'm tired of fighting

I'm tired of fighting, so I'm demolished - that's the way
some make exhaustion a mode of expression and that's their way
I'm just a question knowing my answer I hope I'm wrong
but I know the answer it's four in the morning I'm right again and I'm chinatown

now in a hurry, rubbing up urgent to get home to dot
was my missed mistress messed up my mattress I missed the catch
last of the pitchers catfish done hunting harry lundt
most of the killers never get famous and it's hard on everyone

I'm tired of fighting

And to reflect is to regret throwing it all away
And apathy my one way street, it took so much from me
Separated by this divide I created through my fears
And in your tears you tried to show blind eyes and tell deaf ears
If we can make it through the landslide standing
We'll lift each other up to see the bliss on the horizon
Been looking in from the outside lately
I've seen who I used to be and it's not me

And we can keep healing
And we can keep holding on

I just want to take you where our time won't waste anymore
Through the mountains on the water we'll stay engulfed in one another
And when I can wake up to see the sunrise in your eyes
And we'll finally be free I'll know I've made it home
So let's go out west and bask in the overcast
Walking through the rain we'll see the beauty in life again

And to reflect is to regret throwing it all away
And apathy my one way street, it took so much from me
Separated by this divide I created through my fears
And in your tears you tried to show blind eyes and tell deaf ears

We can keep healing
Oh, I know... We can keep holding on


With a Thousand Words to Say But One - Darkest Hour

Oasis - Wonderwall


Today is gonna be the day
That they're gonna throw it back to you
By now you should've somehow
Realized what you gotta do
I don't believe that anybody
Feels the way I do
About you now

Backbeat the word was on the street
That the fire in your heart is out
I'm sure you've heard it all before
But you never really had a doubt
I don't believe that anybody feels
The way I do about you now

And all the roads we have to walk are winding
And all the lights that lead us there are blinding
There are many things that I'd
Like to say to you
But I don't know how

Because maybe
You're gonna be the one who saves me
And after all
You're my wonderwall

Today was gonna be the day?
But they'll never throw it back to you
By now you should've somehow
Realized what you're not to do
I don't believe that anybody
Feels the way I do
About you now

And all the roads that lead to you were winding
And all the lights that light the way are blinding
There are many things that I'd
Like to say to you
But I don't know how

I said maybe
You're gonna be the one who saves me
And after all
You're my wonderwall

I said maybe
You're gonna be the one who saves me
And after all
You're my wonderwall

Said maybe
You're gonna be the one that saves me
You're gonna be the one that saves me
You're gonna be the one that saves me
