Fave song lyrics?

What're your favourite song lyrics and why?
Mine's "All My Best Friends Are Metalheads".

Do you think it's strange,
That there's a way
Of how you look at
How you act,
And how you think
And pretend they're not the same as you.

Did you know about his strength and convictions,
Or how she puts or her faith in religion?
Do you take the time to really discover how little we know about each other?

Keep us from saying anything
And seperate from everything.
And all this really means is you're one in a crowd and you're paranoid of every sound,
Another friend you won't miss anyhow.
Beep boop. I'm a bot.

    Aerosmith - I Don't Want To Miss A Thing

    I could stay awake just to hear you breathing
    Watch you smile while you are sleeping
    While you're far away dreaming
    I could spend my life in this sweet surrender
    I could stay lost in this moment forever
    Every moment spent with you is a moment I treasure

    Don't want to close my eyes
    I don't want to fall asleep
    Cause I'd miss you baby
    And I don't want to miss a thing
    Cause even when I dream of you
    The sweetest dream will never do
    I'd still miss you baby
    And I don't want to miss a thing

    Lying close to you feeling your heart beating
    And I'm wondering what you're dreaming
    Wondering if it's me you're seeing
    Then I kiss your eyes
    And thank God we're together
    I just want to stay with you in this moment forever
    Forever and ever

    Don't want to close my eyes
    I don't want to fall asleep
    Cause I'd miss you baby
    And I don't want to miss a thing
    Cause even when I dream of you
    The sweetest dream will never do
    I'd still miss you baby
    And I don't want to miss a thing

    I don't want to miss one smile
    I don't want to miss one kiss
    I just want to be with you
    Right here with you, just like this
    I just want to hold you close
    Feel your heart so close to mine
    And just stay here in this moment
    For all the rest of time

    Don't want to close my eyes
    I don't want to fall asleep
    Cause I'd miss you baby
    And I don't want to miss a thing
    Cause even when I dream of you
    The sweetest dream will never do
    I'd still miss you baby
    And I don't want to miss a thing

    Don't want to close my eyes
    I don't want to fall asleep
    I don't want to miss a thing

    Would have to agree with that, Drifter.

    Many of the raps written my Maxi Jazz for Faithless are amazing for their lyrical content. My fave are God is a DJ and Killers Lullaby

    Cos i'm thinking about a brand new hope, one i've never known, and where it goes, cos now I know it's all that wanted.

    omg i hav soo many u wouldnt believe it. at the mo its gotta b ash "girl from mars", coz the lyrics are soooooo sweet, and wen they sang it at the wulfrun tim looked kinda at me and i was gone *sigh*....

    heres the lyrics...


    Do you remember the time when you were the girl from Mars
    I dont know if you knew that
    Oh wed stay up late playing cards
    Henry Winterman cigars
    And she never told me her name
    I still love you the girl from Mars
    Sitting in our dreamy days by the waters edge
    On a cool summers night
    Fire flies and stars in the sky
    Gently glowing light
    From your cigarrette
    The breeze blowing softly on my face
    Reminds me of something else
    Something that in my memory has been misplaced
    Suddenly all comes back
    And as I look to the stars
    I remember the time when you were a girl from Mars
    I dont know if you knew that
    Oh wed stay up late playing cards
    Henry Winterman cigars
    And she never told me her name
    I still love you the girl from Mars
    Searching through the darkness over the moonlit strand
    Electricity in the air
    Twisting all through the night on the terrace,
    Now that summers here
    I know you are almost in love with me
    I can see it in your eyes
    Strange light shimmering over the sea tonight
    And it almost blows my mind
    And as I look to the stars
    I remember the time when you were a girl from Mars
    I dont know if you knew that
    Oh wed stay up late playing cards
    Henry Winterman cigars
    And she never told me her name
    I still love you the girl from Mars
    Today I sleep in the chair by the window,
    It felt as if youd returned
    I thought that you were standing over me
    When I woke there was noone there.
    I still love you the girl from Mars
    Do you remember the time when you were a girl from Mars
    I dont know if you knew that
    Oh wed stay up late playing cards
    Henry Winterman cigars
    And she never told me her name
    Do you remember the time when you were a girl from Mars
    I dont know if you knew that
    Oh wed stay up late playing cards
    Henry Winterman cigars
    And I still dream of you
    I still love you the girl from Mars


    but i hav sooo many more favourite lyrics that u wouldnt believe it..

    There are far too many to list them all, but High and Dry by Radiohead, Everything's Not Lost by Coldplay and The State That I Am In by Belle And Sebastian are some of them.

    And i'm far to lazy to actually write out the lyrics for you.

    Easily my favourite lyrics of all time:

    As soon as you're born they make you feel small
    By giving you no time instead of it all
    Till the pain is so big you feel nothing at all
    A working class hero is something to be
    A working class hero is something to be

    They hurt you at home and they hit you at school
    They hate you if you're clever and they despise a fool
    Till you're so fucking crazy you can't follow their rules
    A working class hero is something to be
    A working class hero is something to be

    When they've tortured and scared you for twenty odd years
    Then they expect you to pick a career
    When you can't really function you're so full of fear
    A working class hero is something to be
    A working class hero is something to be

    Keep you doped with religion and sex and TV
    And you think you're so clever and classless and free
    But you're still fucking peasants as far as I can see
    A working class hero is something to be
    A working class hero is something to be

    There's room at the top they are telling you still
    But first you must learn how to smile as you kill
    If you want to be like the folks on the hill
    A working class hero is something to be
    A working class hero is something to be

    If you want to be a hero well just follow me
    If you want to be a hero well just follow me

    Genius.

    Criminal
    Fiona Apple

    I've been a bad bad girl
    I've been careless with a delicate man
    And its a sad sad world
    When a girl will break a boy
    Just because she can
    Don't you tell me to deny it
    I've done wrong and I want to
    Suffer for my sins
    I've come to you 'cause I need
    Guidance to be true
    And I just don't know where I can begin

    What I need is a good defense
    'Cause I'm feelin' like a criminal
    And I need to be redeemed
    To the one I've sinned against
    Because he's all I ever knew of love

    Heaven help me for the way I am
    Save me from these evil deeds
    Before I get them done
    I know tomorrow brings the consequence at hand
    But I keep livin' this day like
    The next will never come

    Oh help me but don't tell me
    To deny it
    I've got to cleanse myself
    Of all these lies till I'm good
    Enough for him
    I've got a lot to lose and I'm
    Bettin' high
    So I'm beggin' you before it ends
    Just tell me where to begin

    What I need is a good defense
    'Cause I'm feelin' like a criminal
    And I need to be redeemed
    To the one I've sinned against
    Because he's all I ever knew of love

    Let me know the way
    Before there's hell to pay
    Give me room to lay the law and let me go
    I've got to make a play
    To make my lover stay
    So what would an angel say
    The devil wants to know

    What I need is a good defense
    'Cause I'm feelin' like a criminal
    And I need to be redeemed
    To the one I've sinned against
    Because he's all I ever knew of love

    What I need is a good defense
    'Cause I'm feelin' like a criminal
    And I need to be redeemed
    To the one I've sinned against

    Because he's all I ever knew of love

    My fave lyrics would have to be from linkin parks "in the end" it kinda sums up my, on the whole, shitty life...
    it goes like this...

    I tried so hard
    and got so far,
    but in the end/it doesnt even matter
    i had to fall
    to lose it all
    but in the end it doesnt even matter..

    i put my trust in you..
    pushed as far as i can go
    and for all this
    theres only one thing you should know...

    Shit Happens...

    Let's Stay Together
    Al Green


    I, I'm so in love with you
    Whatever you want to do
    Is all right with me
    'Cause you make me feel so brand new
    And I want to spend my life with you

    Since, since we've been together
    Loving you forever
    Is what I need
    Let me be the one you come running to
    I'll never be untrue

    Let's, let's stay together
    Lovin' you whether, whether
    Times are good or bad, happy or sad

    Whether times are good or bad, happy or sad

    Why, why some people break up
    Then turn around and make up
    I just can't see
    You'd never do that to me (would you, baby)
    Staying around you is all I see
    (Here's what I want us to do)

    Let's, we oughta stay together
    Loving you whether, whether
    Times are good or bad, happy or sad

    Do You Know Where You're Going To

    Do you know where you're going to?
    Do you like the things that life is showing you
    Where are you going to?
    Do you know...?

    Do you get
    What you're hoping for
    When you look behind you
    There's no open door
    What are you hoping for?
    Do you know...?

    Once we were standing still in time
    Chasing the fantasies
    That filled our minds
    You knew how I loved you
    But my spirit was free
    Laughin' at the questions
    That you once asked of me

    Do you know where you're going to?
    Do you like the things that life is showing you
    Where are you going to?
    Do you know...?

    Now looking back at all we've planned
    We let so many dreams
    Just slip through our hands
    Why must we wait so long
    Before we'll see
    How sad the answers
    To those questions can be

    Do you know where you're going to?
    Do you like the things that life is showing you
    Where are you going to?
    Do you know...?

    Do you get
    What you're hoping for
    When you look behind you
    There's no open door
    What are you hoping for?
    Do you know...?

    Save The Children - Marvin Gaye

    I just want to ask a question
    Who really cares?
    To save a world in despair
    There'll come a time, when the world won't be singin'
    Flowers won't grow, bells won't be ringin'
    Who really cares?
    Who's willing to try to save a world
    That's destined to die
    When I look at the world it fills me with sorrow
    Little children today are really gonna suffer tomorrow
    Oh what a shame, such a bad way to live
    All who is to blame, we can't stop livin'
    Live, live for life
    But let live everybody
    Live life for the children
    Oh, for the children
    You see, let's save the children
    Let's save all the children
    Save the babies, save the babies
    If you wanna love, you got to save the babies
    All of the children
    But who really cares
    Who's willing to try
    Yes, to save a world
    Yea, save our sweet world
    Save a world that is destined to die

    Well it HAS to be an Iron Maiden song because their lyrics are awesome and we can all relate to them.

    The Evil That Men Do (© Iron Maiden)

    Love is a razor and I walked the line on that silver blade

    Slept in the dust with his daughter, her eyes red, with the slaughter of innocence

    But I will pray for her

    I will call her name out loud

    I would bleed for her

    If only I could see her now

    Living on a razors edge

    Balancing on a ledge

    Living on a razors edge

    The evil that men do lives on and on.....

    The evil that men do lives on and on.....

    The evil that men do lives on and on.....

    The evil that men do lives on and on.....

    Circle of fire my baptism of joy at an end it seems

    The seventh lamb slain, the book of life opens before me

    But I will pray for you

    And some day I may return

    Don't you cry for me

    Beyond is where I learn

    Here's another lyrical masterpiece from the Maiden Boys <IMG alt="image" SRC="http://www.thesite.org/ubb/biggrin.gif"&gt;

    Only The Good Die Young (© Iron Maiden)

    The demon in your mind will rape you in your bed at night

    The wisdom of ages, the lies and outrages concealed

    Time it waits for no man

    My future it is revealed

    Time it waits for no man

    My fate is sealed

    If I cancel tomorrow the undead will thank me today

    Fly in the face of your prophets I mock your morality plays

    The moon is red and bleeding

    The sun is burned and black

    The book of life is silent

    No turning back

    Only the good die young

    All the evil seem to live forever

    Only the good die young

    All the evil seem to live forever

    Only the good die young

    Only the good die young

    Mystery madman a victim of cruel charade

    Some innocent pawn in an end game one more stalemate

    Is death another birthday?

    A way to kiss your dreams goodbye?

    Do the undead live within us

    And look through our eyes?

    Walking on water are miracles all you can trust

    Measure your coffin does it measure up to your lust?

    So I think I'll leave you

    With your bishops and your guilt

    So until the next time

    Have a good sin

    Only the good die young

    All the evil seem to live forever

    Only the good die young

    All the evil seem to live forever

    Only the good die young

    Only the good die young



    If at first you don't succeed, destroy all evidence that you tried.

    Has ne1 listened to Dido's lyrics? I think they're fab!

    Here are some of my faves:

    1)
    "With one light on in one room, I know you're up when I go home
    With one small step upon the stair, I know your look when I get there
    If you were a king up there on your throne, would you be wise enough to let me go
    For this queen you think you own
    Wants to be a hunter again, wants to see the world alone again
    To take a chance on life again, so let me go
    The unread book and painful look, the tv's on, the sound is down
    One long pause, then you begin, oh look what the cat's brought in
    If you were a king up there on your throne, would you be wise enough to let me go
    For this queen you think you own
    Wants to be a hunter again, wants to see the world alone again
    To take a chance on life again, so let me go, let me leave
    For the crown you've placed upon my head feels too heavy now
    And I don't know what to say to you but I'll smile anyhow
    And all the time I'm thinking, thinking
    I want to be a hunter again, want to see the world alone again
    To take a chance on life again, so let me go"

    2)
    "It's been three years, one night apart, but in that night you tore my heart
    If only you had slept alone, if those seeds had not been sown"

    3)
    "I just want to feel safe in my own skin, I just want to be happy again
    I just want to feel deep in my own world
    But I'm so lonely I don't even want to be with myself anymore
    On a different day, if I was safe in my own skin, then I wouldn't feel lost and so frightened
    But this is today and I'm lost in my own skin
    And I'm so lonely I don't even want to be with myself anymore
    I just want to feel safe in my own skin, I just want to be happy again"

    4)
    "It's all right to make mistakes, you're only human
    Inside everybody's hiding something"

    5)
    "If you gave me just a coin for every time we say goodbye
    Well I'd be rich beyond my dreams, I'm sorry for my weary life
    I know I'm not perfect but I can smile
    And I hope that you see this heart behind my tired eyes
    If you tell me that I can't, I will, I will, I'll try all night
    And if I say I'm coming home, I'll probably be out all night
    I know I can be afraid but I'm alive
    And I hope that you trust this heart behind my tired eyes
    I'm no angel, but please don't think that I won't try and try
    I'm no angel, but does that mean that I can't live my life
    I'm no angel, but please don't think that I can't cry
    I'm no angel, but does that mean that I won't fly
    I know I'm not around each night
    And I know I always think I'm right
    I can believe that you might look around
    I'm no angel, but please don't think that I won't try and try
    I'm no angel, but does that mean that I can't live my life
    I'm no angel, but please don't think that I can't cry
    I'm no angel, but does that mean that I won't fly"

    "What I choose to do is of no concern to you and your friends
    Where I lay my hat may not be my home, but I will last on my own
    'Cause it's me, and my life, it's my life, it's my life
    Oh the world has sat in the palm of my hand not that you'd see
    And I'm tired and bored of waiting for you and all those things you never do
    'Cause it's me, and my life, it's my life, it's my life"

    got to be "conscience of a cannibal" by dropdead:

    murderer! sadist! carnivore!
    conscience of a cannibal!
    at the cost of an animal!

    don't you realize?
    You're eating death!
    and the taste in your mouth
    is the corpse on your breath!
